It Finds You

By Erin Snow

A red thread, Woven by the fates, Invisible yet unyielding, Twisting and stretching through time, To bind hearts destined to meet.

rough countless realities, In every lifetime, It finds you —

A love unbroken, Woven by the fates, Set in motion by the universe, It finds you —

Whether their hands are rough or gentle, eir voice so or heavy, eir love defiant, Refusing to fit in, e world’s narrow box

You may not see it, May not recognize them at first — But you will know.

In time, e red thread tightens, Drawing you home

CRANE’S AUTOMOTIVE

Be patient: Each person adapts to a new technology at his or her own pace. It’s important to remain patient when teaching aging drivers how to use the tech in their vehicles. Old habits die hard, and while some drivers may quickly adapt to tech like backup cameras, others may not be so quick to abandon driving techniques they’ve been safely using for decades. Stay the course, remain patient and allow senior drivers to adapt at their own pace.

PIGS ARE SMARTER THAN YOU THINK

Pigs are valued not just for their meat, but for their brains. Studies have shown pigs can use mirrors, solve puzzles, and even learn basic commands on par with dogs. If you’ve ever raised one, you know they’re curious, vocal, and full of personality. And yes, they love a good belly rub.

Finnegan

is a 5 month old petite mini goldendoodle. He loves playing fetch with his ball and tug of war with his rope toy. He enjoys going for walks and getting his belly rubs. Finn loves giving and getting kisses.

HOUSEBREAKING PUPPIES

How often a puppy will need to defecate depends on the food being fed and when meals are offered. The American Kennel Club says that most puppies will need to poop shortly after a meal, anywhere from 15 minutes to a few hours.

Puppies typically can hold urine a little longer overnight, but probably won’t be able to go the entire night without a potty break. Many pups can last around six hours from the last time they’ve gone out. An early-morning bathroom break will be needed, or consider penning the dog with puppy pads to catch the mess until the dog gains greater control over its bladder.

What’s the best age to spay or neuter a dog?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: When should I get my purebred puppy spayed? “Macy” is a rambunctious, 6-month-old Bernese, and I’m getting conflicting information from friends and my vet. My friends say that she should go through one or two heat cycles before I get her fixed.The vet wants it done right away. Who’s right? -- Carol H., via email

DEAR CAROL: Oh, wow. This is quite a topic of conversation in my pet circles, as I’m sure it is with your fellow pet owners. I don’t think anyone is going to be super happy with my answer, because I’m not going to give you a definitive age at which puppies should be spayed or neutered. Instead, I’m going to punt this to the American Kennel Club (AKC), which has a great article on why recommended ages differ: www. akc.org/expert-advice/vets-corner/neutering-spaying-rightage-dog.

With that said, I commend you on making the decision to spay your puppy. Among owners of purebred dogs, deciding if and when to “fix” them is sometimes a tough choice. However, if an owner does not intend to breed their dog (responsibly, of course), spaying or neutering can curb some undesired behaviors and prevent some health problems.

If you decide to spay Macy after her first or second heat, wait until the heat cycle has completed before undergoing the procedure. This will reduce the possibility of excessive bleeding. Also, keep her under your control during her heat cycle -- indoors unless you’re walking her. When you take her for walks, stay next to her and keep her on a strong leash. It will amaze you how many dogs become intensely interested in Macy as you pass by. Keep your distance from all of them during this period.

DID YOU KNOW? Volunteering is a great way for individuals to strengthen their communities, but it also can be a unique way for individuals to improve their own overall happiness. A 2020 study published in the Journal of Happiness Studies examined 70,000 participants, each of whom received surveys that asked questions regarding their volunteering habits and mental health.The study found that, when compared to those who did not volunteer, people who had volunteered in the previous 12 months were more satisfied with their lives and gave their overall health higher ratings. The frequency of giving back to one’s community also may affect just how much volunteering affects mental health. Study participants who volunteered at least once per month rated their mental health even higher than those who volunteered but did so infrequently.

SHOPPING LOCALLY

earned money. Your local merchant is working just as hard to earn your money. And when you choose to not support your local merchant and shop outside your community or county, you’ve robbed yourself of the benefits of your money staying where you live.

THINK LOCAL, especially at this gi ing time of year. Make it a Merry Christmas for all of us because, ‘it matters!’

businesses was more important than getting the best deals. That may be due to the feeling of helping out a fellow neighbor.

Create job opportunities

Shopping at small businesses keeps those establishments afloat, along with their employees. Small businesses are the largest employers in the United States. That’s also true in Canada, where 68.8 percent of the total labor force works for a small business. A person may never know when he or she - or a relative - will need a job. Keeping small businesses viable provides a strong job market for locals.

Keep more money in the community

The Small Business Administration says $48 out of every $100 spent at a small business stays in the community. Spend the same $100 at a national retailer and only $14 stays.

Enjoy a more local flavor

National retailers and other businesses follow a global business model that may not allow for much customization, but small businesses can provide products or services that relate directly to the needs of the communities they serve. These same small businesses may also be more inclined to work with local vendors and start-ups than national companies that have global supply chains.

Holiday Pretzel Wreath

Ingredients:

1 package (about 6 ounces) of your favorite chocolate (milk, dark, or white)

1 bag (9 or 10 ounces) of Snyder’s of Hanover pretzels

(mini’s, thins, or homestyle)

Red and green candies (chocolate shell candies, jelly beans, sugar sprinkles)

1 package of red shoestring licorice

Wax paper

Directions:

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper. Melt chocolate in microwave or double boiler; stir. Using tongs or a fork, dip the pretzels into the chocolate and layer in a circle, like a wreath, onto the wax paper. After the wreath(s) are formed, use the red and green candies to sprinkle or place on top of the wreath(s). When you have completed the wreath(s), cool until set. Once the chocolate has set, use the shoestring licorice to tie into a bow, at the top of the wreath.

SENIOR NEWS LINE

By Matilda Charles

y do we turn down help?

All too frequently we seniors don’t ask for help when we need it, using as an excuse that others need it more. Sound familiar?

Our local senior center decided to host a free holiday dinner a few weeks before Christmas this year. It was to be a full turkey dinner, with several courses, a sit-down affair with table service from the Community Club at the high school.They needed to limit it to 100 people, and advance signup was required. Color them amazed when a full week after the announcement, there were still well over 50 dinner slots available.

Staff starting manning the phones,calling senior center members to ask if they’d heard about the dinner.Yes, people had heard.Yes, it sounded lovely. But no, they wouldn’t be signing up for it. Other people, many stated, needed the free dinner more.

This did not surprise me. After all the times I’ve talked to seniors around me about how it was OK for them to go to the food bank, that it was OK to ask for help -- no, I wasn’t shocked that many were turning down a free holiday dinner at the senior center.

Does this describe you? Someone who would turn down free things, saying that others might need it more?

There’s more to it when we decline help, other reasons, if we’re going to be honest with ourselves. Mostly we fear loss of independence. Somehow we equate getting help at the food bank -- or a free turkey dinner -- with not being able to take care of ourselves, thus possibly inviting scrutiny from others who might start questioning our ability to manage our lives.

I was not surprised when the senior center changed their promotion for the free dinner to say they would welcome donations, and the rest of the slots filled up.

Pain Persists Around Puncture Site After Medical Procedure

DEAR DR. ROACH: Nine days ago, I had a medical procedure under general anesthesia. One of the lines was put in the artery in my left wrist. Aside from deep bruising that went halfway up my forearm, it seems that there is some nerve damage. I have constant pain from my thumb, through my wrist, and up to about 3 inches on my arm. Overnight, the pain becomes intense and radiates all the way up to my shoulder.

Tylenol and an arthritis sleeve only provide minimum relief. Should I request to see a neurologist, or is there another type of doctor to seek out for a diagnosis? This has become life-altering, and I’m hoping it will eventually be healed. -- B.F.

ANSWER: I suspect that the bruising on your forearm was caused by bleeding from the puncture site of the artery in your wrist. (This type of line is used to measure blood pressure accurately and instantaneously.) The hematoma (blood collection) inside the wrist might be compressing the median nerve in your carpal tunnel, which causes a neuropathy very much like carpal tunnel syndrome.

If I am right, then the condition should improve as your body absorbs the blood, which takes pressure off the nerve. However, there are case reports of permanent damage to the nerve from complications of an arterial puncture. In general, if the nerve compression is serious enough to cause weakness, it needs to be acted upon urgently.

The doctors who performed your procedure need to know about this complication, and a neurologist is exactly the right person to see. A simple nerve test could confirm my suspicion or disprove it by finding a different cause if your symptoms persist.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m an active 60-year-old who took a soccer ball to the groin some time back.After a few months, I noticed a change in my sexual organ. Narrowing and bending of my organ developed, and it seems to be getting worse.

My general doctor seems to think it’s Peyronie’s disease. After researching this, I started taking vitamin E and COq10 supplements. I scheduled a urologist exam but was hoping for some insight on this. -- G.

ANSWER: I suspect your general doctor is correct, and an evaluation by a urologist is certainly indicated. Peyronie’s disease is often triggered by trauma in a person who is genetically susceptible to the condition. (Your trauma was very clear, but it isn’t always clear in everyone what the trauma might have been.)

The diagnosis is made by an examination showing a bend in the penis, along with plaque that can be felt during an examination in most cases. Some men, but not all, will have pain.

In men who are in the active phase of the disease (where the curvature is getting worse), urologists will often prescribe pentoxifylline for three to six months in hopes of stabilizing the condition and preventing the curve from worsening.

Vitamin E was not found to be superior to a placebo treatment. CoQ10 was found to have a benefit in a small trial, and since it is very safe, this was a reasonable treatment for you to try.

Depending on your symptoms and degree of curvature, there are several options for treatment. Medication can be injected directly into the penis; men treated with this were found to have about a 34% improvement in curvature. Traction therapy is also frequently used.

In men with more severe disease that does not respond to the previous options,surgical treatment can be considered. This should be done in men whose sexual function is affected by the disease and in cases where medical treatments have failed to improve their symptoms adequately.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2025 King Features Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

Parking Lot ank You

Thank you to the kind woman that noticed that I was in distress trying to find my vehicle in the Geneseo Walmart parking lot the other day. She watched me search with no success and offered to drive me up and down the aisles until we found it. Thank you so much for taking the time to help me. I am so grateful.

Wonderful Volunteers

Ambassadors like you at the Brockport Welcome Center on the Erie Canal are the backbone of our organization and your generosity means the world to the people we serve. Brockport is so grateful to have you, our volunteers, as part of our team and look forward to working with you again in the future.

Wonderful Poem

I thoroughly enjoyed Douglas W. Williams’ poem “Leaves” that was published in the October 24 issue of the Penny Saver. It is playful and creative and perfectly captures the spirit of this beautiful time of year in upstate New York.

House Nunmbers & Lighting

As a delivery person--often at night-- I see a great need for better lighting and placement of visible house/apartment numbers! PLEASE, for your own safety and that of others, put an easily visible address number on your house. It could be lifesaving if emergency folks are called. If you expect a delivery of food, you would want it delivered promptly and in the correct location. Do not blame the service if your house or apartment lacks a number. When several lack numbers even a flashlight does not help.

Also, PLEASE provide better lighting; there are many lowcost options for entrances & inner foyers. If you expect delivery of a good hot meal, make sure your dwelling has adequate lighting! Paths with bikes, ladders, toys, etc. in the dark do not help. We do all we can to ensure prompt & satisfactory delivery. Please consider taking your part in keeping deliveries safer with visible address numbers and helpful lighting. Thank you!

Restaurant Nickel and Diming

My wife and I and another couple went out to eat on Saturday night. The food was great and the bill with tip was not bad. The only bad spot was they charged us $3.50 for another helping of bread. With their prices for dinner, why do restaurants always nickel and dime you? We will not be back. Breakfast restaurants have extra charges too (if you want raisins with your oatmeal, they charge 25¢ more for the meal). Why for such little extras?

Research shows that when we give to others, we also contribute to our own happiness, health and well-being. Scientists have identified something known as the “helper’s high” to describe the positive emotions that follow acts of helpfulness toward others. Research also associates improved health and longevity with this psychological state, according to the National Library of Medicine.

“ No

act of kindness is too small. e gi of kindness may start as a small ripple that over time can turn into a tidal wave

affecting the lives of many.

- Kevin Heath, CEO of More4Kids

Similar to the ripples that result from a pebble being dropped into water, studies show that our words and actions also have a “ripple effect” that can be either positive or negative. So why not create a ripple effect of kindness, helpfulness and happiness?

Windows allow natural light to enter a home, but windows also enable neighbors and others to see into a home. If thieves are the ones looking inside, wide open windows present a security issue. Window treatments are an effective way to add privacy to a home. Closing curtains or blinds limits others’ ability to see inside the house. Switch to more opaque window treatments when using interior lighting more often, as gossamer draperies may still make it possible for outsiders to understand what’s going on inside the home if people and items are backlit.

Flying Rockets for Sport with the MARS Club in Geneseo

BY SOPHIA KOVATCH

Several times a year, the MARS Club gathers at the National Warplane Museum in Geneseo to launch rockets. e club launches everything from small model rockets built by kids to high powered rockets that take months to build and require large motors and onboard computers. Club members and curious spectators watch rockets of all sizes and colors shoot hundreds or thousands of feet into the air and fall slowly to the ground by parachute. en they find their rockets in the large landing field.

MARS stands for Monroe Astronautical Rocket Society,theoldest-operatingchapteroftheNational Association of Rocketry (NAR). It was founded in 1961 by a man who was so fascinated by Alan Shepard’s first launch into space that he gathered a group of buddies to build their own model rockets. e club has been active ever since.

“I love having an idea and creating a flight goal with that concept, then problem-solving to meet the goal. You can just fly for sport, where you launch and then recover. I make it way more of a science, with files and rules and procedures for how to fly.”

TODD SMITH, PRESIDENT OF THE MARS CLUB

Part of the reason the club has been active for so long is because they launch from one of the top five fields in the country for flying rockets, according to Todd Smith, president of the MARS Club. e higher a rocket flies, the more area it needs to safely fall back down to the ground, and the multi-acre field near the National Warplane Museum has plenty of room for MARS Club rockets, which are limited to a flight altitude of 8,000 feet by the FAA.

Smith has had a lifelong interest in rocketry, which started out as a childhood fascination with parachutes. When his dad got tired of throwing toy soldiers with attached parachutes in the air so Smith could watch them fall, he bought a model rocket to do the work for him. “ e first one went five or six hundred feet up,” Smith says. “I was instantly hooked and kept building rockets through high school.” en he didn’t build rockets for a few years, but when his mother bought him a model rocket the year October Sky came out, he returned to it. “Like a kid I started flying rockets again,” he says.

For a while, Smith only flew model rockets, which are limited in the size of their motors but are available to anyone at hobby stores. en his boss at a machine shop in Henrietta told him about high power rockets – bigger and more powerful models that require a certification from the NAR to build and fly. Smith saw a larger rocket in action at a MARS Club launch at the Geneseo field and has been a part of the group ever since.

Smaller model rockets usually take just an hour or two to build, with the investment time and complexity increasing as the rockets get bigger. High power rockets might take as long as 40 hours to build and be upwards of 10 feet tall. MARS Club members also collaborate on bigger rocket builds, with several rocketry enthusiasts contributing a part of the larger project. Once a rocket is built, it can be launched over and over, just needing more fuel and a little reassembly between flights.

e largest (and most epic) rocket Smith ever built was a foot in diameter and over 14 feet tall, built out of wood and PVC. “It took six months to build,” Smith says. “On the computer it flew great, but we didn’t know if it would actually work.” It

launched successfully and reached 1,000 feet before making its way back to the ground. Smith says he still hears people talk about that launch even a couple years later.

e creativity and experimentation with different kinds of rockets is exactly what Smith loves about the hobby. “I love having an idea and creating a flight goal with that concept, then problemsolving to meet the goal,” he says. “You can just fly for sport, where you launch and then recover. I make it way more of a science, with files and rules and procedures for how to fly.”
