Parents and children can check with their local leaders for details of that community’s trick or treat hours, as well as any community parties which may be planned. For the extremely brave in heart, the annual Nightmare on Fairgrounds Road concludes this Saturday evening at the Bureau County Fairgrounds in Princeton.

Halloween tips for parents, homeowners When parents want to know what do with their kids, they visit the What To Do With The Kids website at www.whattodowiththekids.com. This is also a popular place to visit when planning Halloween festivities. Their Halloween collection includes tips on how to create a haunted house, throw a spooktacular Halloween party featuring party invitations and Halloween crafts to entertain the kids. The kids can have their faces painted easily with a simple yet creative design and your jack-o-lantern will be the envy of the neighborhood when using one of our unique pumpkin stencils. Here are a few tips that will hopefully prepare parents for make the evening fun for everyone. • Encourage the kids to use facial makeup instead of a mask. Spend the extra dollar and purchase quality makeup. You don’t want your kid to have that same look weeks later. • If possible, design the costume to accommodate a sweater or even a jacket underneath depending on the weather. • Make sure that all costumes and accessories are flame resistant. • Carry extra bags to dump candy in so the kids don’t get overly tired. • If you have more than one kid to supervise, try bringing a wagon or cart to unload the candy in as they go door to door. • If you’re taking other kids with you, set out the rules before you leave and make sure they understand. • Instruct the kids to stay with

you and off the lawns and out of the gardens. • Remind kids to say thank you, even if they don’t like the candy. • Be prepared to carry their props after a while. • Inspect all candy when you get home. Throw away homemade, unwrapped or open candy. • Bring a flashlight and give them glow sticks to wear. • Don’t let them walk in the middle of the streets. Cars will still travel on roads Oct. 31. • If the front light is out but they have Halloween decorations, there is a good chance that they have no more candy. • If the lights are out and don’t have any decorations, the people are most likely hiding in the back and have no candy to give. • Carry a small, portable first aid kit for those little cuts and injuries. • Many people bring their dogs with them and dress them up in costumes such as a hot dog or a devil. Instruct the kids to ask the owner if they can pet the animal before they do. There is a good chance that the animal is embarrassed to be in a costume and may want to take it out on a kid. • When the kids go to the door, stay close by and watch carefully. • Set a strict curfew for older kids that go out on their own. • Kids are never to go into the house unless you know them. • If you have to drive, slow down more than usual. • Give the kids a snack before they go out. They won’t complain

about being hungry and want to eat the candy. Here are a few tips for homeowners on Halloween: 1. Keep the path to your door clear of all obstacles and well lit. 2. Don’t terrorize the kids. It’s all about fun and not making them wet their pants. 3. Be extremely careful with the candle in your pumpkin so that nothing bursts into flames, including a kid’s costume. Consider using a battery powered light or glow sticks. 4. Use flashlights, glow sticks or electric lights with the power cord safe and secured. 5. If you have a dog, keep it in another room and away from the door. 6. If you’re going to give candy, give only store bought and wrapped items such as chocolate bars, chips, etc. Loose candy will be thrown out by the parents. 7. Alternative giving can include pencils, erasers or stickers with a Halloween theme. 8. If you’ve spent a lot of time on your Halloween display, you may want to consider putting some sort of safe fencing around it so that everyone can enjoy it without it being trampled. 9. Halloween candy is magically calorie and fat free on Oct. 31 so feel free to use the “one for you, one for me” rule. 10. Check out our website for more tips and special effects.

Sending holiday cheer to service members worldwide MAGNOLIA — Making sure those serving in the nation’s Armed Forces receive their presents and care packages in time for the holidays is a priority for friends and family members of military personnel serving around the world and for the U.S. Postal Service. “We want to remind our customers about these important mailing dates,” said Magnolia Postmaster Yvone Mercer. “This will help ensure cards, letters and packages arrive in time for the holidays.” Helping to get packages on their way, the Postal Service offers a discount on its largest priority mail flat rate

box at $14.85. The price includes a $2 per box discount for military mail being sent to air/ army post office, fleet post office and diplomatic post office (APO, FPO, DPO) destinations worldwide. Priority mail flat rate boxes are available at no cost at local post offices, or can be ordered online at shop.usps.com. Postage, labels and customs forms can be printed online anytime using Click-N-Ship. To ensure timely delivery of holiday wishes by Dec. 25, send cards and packages to military APO, FPO, DPO addresses overseas no later than the mailing dates in the graph.

Use the Military Care Kit to send presents and/or care packages With Priority Mail supplies as the packaging of choice for families preparing care packages for service members overseas, the Postal Service created a free “Military Care Kit” based on the items most frequently requested by military families. The kit contains: Two Priority Mail APO/FPO Flat Rate Boxes, two Priority Mail Medium Flat Rate Boxes, Priority Mail tape, Priority Mail address labels and appropriate customs forms. To order the kit, call 800-610-8734. Guidelines for packing, addressing, and shipping items to U.S. troops can be found at usps.com/ship/apo-fpo-guidelines.htm. To order flat-rate boxes featuring the “America Supports You” logo, go to store.usps.com.

Four numbers you need to know for good health (BPT) — When it comes to health by the numbers, you probably already know to keep an eye on your cholesterol level, body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure. But are you aware of another medical marker that directly impacts these others? Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs) are markers for the aging of our internal organs, tissues and body systems. Research shows that AGEs are linked to nearly every chronic disease we face today, such as obesity, kidney, heart and eye disease, and dementia.

“While cholesterol, body mass index and blood pressure are familiar and relevant health indicators, AGEs are the critical fourth medical marker that everyone should know,” says Pat Baird, registered dietitian and A.G.E. Foundation board member. “AGEs impact how long and how well you live as they age your body from the inside out.” AGEs develop naturally in our body and can be ingested through certain foods, including browned, sugary and processed foods. When people con-

sume too many of these foods, higher than normal levels of AGEs build up in the body’s tissues and accelerate the aging process internally. You can lower AGEs in your diet by avoiding charred and blackened foods, extending cooking time and incorporating more water (e.g., steaming, poaching, boiling) and acidic marinades (e.g., lemon or lime-based) into your food preparation, according to the A.G.E. Foundation. Choosing colorful foods that include healthy iridoids, like noni, blueberries, olives and

cranberries as well as consuming the supplemental beverage TruAge Max, can effectively lower AGEs. Additionally, receiving a full eight hours of sleep allows the body to fight AGE accumulation and managing physical and emotional stress curbs the production of AGEs. “Being aware of these four critical medical markers — cholesterol, body mass index, blood pressure and AGEs — can be the first step to a better and healthier life,” Bairdd said. “Simple lifestyle changes like exercising for 30 minutes a day,

eating a healthy diet rich in whole grains, fruits and vegetables, quitting smoking and regularly monitoring your health can help to lower or maintain

the level of AGEs in your body and reduce your risk for chronic diseases.” For more information, visit www.AGEFoundation.com.

Adding in, not just cutting out, is key to better eating habits (BPT) — When you think of eating right, does your mind immediately turn to what you should cut out of your diet? The list of things you might consider giving up can be long and daunting. As important as it might be to cut out some foods, don’t overlook the importance of the things you should add in, such as quality ingredients, appealing flavors and textures, and satisfying portions. “Setting our focus on what we shouldn’t eat only sets us up for failure,” says Cracker Barrel Chef Bill Kintzler. “Cutting out and depriving ourselves shifts our focus from the positive choices we should be making, including choosing foods that are satisfying.”

Ways to add in and win Managing calories and lessthan-healthy food choices makes sense. But if you think food has to lack taste, enticing texture and overall appeal to be “better for you,” you’re

simply incorrect. Ultimately, if your diet is unsatisfying, disappointing and just doesn’t taste good, you won’t be able to stick with it. Instead of emphasizing what you’ll leave out and resigning yourself to bland food, think of ways to add to the appeal and taste of what you eat. For example, if you rely on breakfast smoothies to help you reduce your caloric intake during the day, be sure to add items that include fiber - such as a handful of spinach or kale. Reducing the amount of salt in your diet? Turn to other seasonings that don’t add calories, but can enhance food’s flavor and that deliver other benefits. For example, cinnamon adds a warm, homey flavor to dishes. Marinades and spice blends can be a great way to add flavor to meats, fish and even veggies without adding fat, calories or salt. And replace high-calorie toppings with fresh fruit, which adds flavor to everything from pancakes to plain yogurt.

Don’t feel left out when you dine out Many people trying to eat well assume they can’t eat out at all. While you may have to give up your favorite food options in favor of ones that have lower calorie counts or smaller portions, abandoning some of your eating out isn’t an option for many people. Instead, make dining-out choices that maximize the satisfaction of the experience. For example, the new Wholesome Fixin’s meals at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store are fun and flavorful with calorie counts that can fit into your daily dietary goals. The meals deliver the value, taste and quality that guests expect from Cracker Barrel with better-for-you ingredients that are lower in calories. The foods emphasize more choices and flavors with fewer calories; all breakfast options are less than 500 calories, lunch and dinner less than 600.

“Wholesome Fixin’s are a great example of balancing calorie count with satisfaction,” Kintzler said. “Each menu item is not only lower in calories but also is high-quality.” Whenever you dine out, look for options with calorie information — many restaurants have added this to their menus. Eating quality foods is even

more important when you’ve reduced your calorie intake. “Just cutting calories is not enough,” Kintzler said. “Food is simply food. Setting our focus on what we shouldn’t do, what we shouldn’t eat, sets us up for failure. We should start thinking about what we can do, instead of obsessing over what we shouldn’t.”

Fall allergies or falling prey to chronic asthma or COPD? (BPT) — Twenty-two million Americans, many of whom are children, suffer from the frightening acute attacks and long-term disabilities of chronic asthma. Millions more adults face the increasing burdens and life-altering effects of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes both emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Managing these conditions effectively means truly understanding when and how to use the necessary medications. “The numbers are staggering; more than half a million patients undergo hospitalizations each year from poorly controlled asthma alone,” said Don Smart, a specialist pharmacist in the Express Scripts Pulmonary Therapeutic Resource Center (TRC). “For chronic asthma alone, regular use of the right medications could help reduce the rate of hospitalizations by 43 percent; 56 percent for COPD.” Asthma and COPD are two distinct breathing conditions. Asthma typically develops during childhood. Symptoms like coughing and wheezing are due

to inflammation and swelling of the airways, making breathing very difficult. Asthma medications play an important role in keeping symptoms under control. Long-term medications keep asthma under control when used on a day-to-day basis, while short-term medications act as “quick-relief” options that treat symptoms once they start. COPD traditionally is a disease impacting adults and is often a result of smoking. Tobacco smoke irritates the airways and eventually makes breathing a challenge. This leads to chronic coughing and shortness of breath. While COPD gets progressively worse, especially with continued smoking, asthma rarely results in progressive decline in lung function if treated properly. “Being aware of what may bring on an asthma attack is half the battle,” Smart said. “A person’s work environment (occupational asthma), allergens in their environment, exercise or infections could all prompt coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness.”

Greenfield

As a specialist pharmacist, Smart works with patients with pulmonary illnesses to provide one-on-one counseling, often clearing up the confusion between chronic asthma and COPD. For patients with either asthma or COPD, effective disease management is essential. Smart offers some tips that will help patients improve lung function and reduce the severity of their condition while helping them stay active. • Do it right: Proper inhaler technique is important to get the most out of the treatment. Make sure that your doctor or pharmacists explain how to use it correctly. It’s also a good idea to rinse your mouth out after using inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) to avoid an oral infection. • Use the right amount, every time: Like any medication, always use as directed. Adherence to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and long-acting bronchodilators is important for controlling asthma and slowing down the progression of COPD. Make sure not to overuse quick-relief medications, known as shortacting beta agonists (SABA), which can lead to an increased

heart rate and nervousness. • Monitor your symptoms: Recognize the intensity and frequency of your asthma symptoms. Asking some simple questions may help determine how well you are managing your condition. Here are some questions from the asthma treatment guidelines that may help: Does my asthma wake me up at night? Have I started reaching for my rescue inhaler more than three times per week? Does my asthma limit me in my normal daily activi-
