Michael Young, Supervi-sor for Centralia Township attended the 2015 Annual Educational Conference, sponsored by the Township O� cials of Illinois (TOI), on November 8 – 10, at the Crowne Plaza in Spring� eld.
This year's conference, titled "Township Govern-ment: Learn from Us!" brought together over a thousand township o� cials from across the state to attend sessions covering the latest developments in local government management, � scal practices, general as-sistance, legislation, and other issues a� ecting local government.
Keynote speaker Matt Booth's opening session, "Communicate with Atti-tude," blended humor and practical advice to stress the value of communication and personal connection in a world increasingly depen-dent on technology.
Some noteworthy topics
covered at the 2015 Confer-ence included FOIA compli-ance, digital government strategy, technology in gov-ernment, size and weight limit laws for roads, record retention, and community programs for seniors and youth.
TOI is a 108-year-old as-sociation comprised of nearly 11,000 o� cials from 1,431 townships throughout 85 counties in Illinois.
TOI's ongoing mission is to improve township ser-vices and streamline the oldest form of local govern-ment in North America by o� ering support and con-tinuing education opportu-nities for o� cials in various regions across the state. � e many relevant sessions o� ered at the 2015 Confer-ence will help township of-� cials carry out their respon-sibilities and keep pace with changes in government.
"New and returning o� -cials all learn more about
their duties by attending our conference; there is much to be gained from the educa-tional sessions and from the networking opportunities," said Bryan E. Smith, TOI's Executive Director. "Each year brings changes in the law and new opportunities for improved township ser-vices."

While in Louisville, Sandoval FFA Members were able to visit over 450 booths at the career and expo fair. While visiting the career and expo fair, members were able to talk to colleges, agriculture businesses, and many other individuals to gain a wider agriculture knowledge. Sandoval FFA Members also enjoyed visiting with other FFA members from all over the United States and Puerto Rico.
The Sandoval FFA Members attended the two general sessions. While attending these sessions, members were able hear a motivational address from Rick Rigsby, former Texas
A&M character coach and chaplain for the Aggies football team. Sandoval FFA members were amazed at the amount of FFA members present for the National FFA Convention — there were over 50,000 FFA members present for t h e N a t i o n a l F FA Convention. Also, while at National FFA Convention, Sandoval FFA member Beth Pennington exhibited her Agri-Science Fair project. Beth’s apple related project placed 15th in the nation!
FFA members attended many sessions and the career fair but also toured Louisville, KY while in town. Members toured the
Louisville Water Company to learn more about the process water goes through before coming out of the faucet. The American Printing House was visited where everyone learned m o r e a b o u t b l i n d individuals and braille. For a little fun, everyone enjoyed touring the Jack O’Lantern Spectacular where they saw over 5,000 carved pumpkins lining a quarter-mile walking trail.
FFA makes a positive di� erence in the lives of students by developing their potential for premiere leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education.

City Manager Dan Ramey stated that the city will con-tinue their 3 year program of giving free bales of straw to pet owners, if needed, to help keep pets safe and warm. Straw may be picked up at the Animal Shelter, located at 846 Woods Lane or the pet owner may contact Animal Control O� cer, Bobby Patton at 618-335-5471 and he will deliver it to the pet owner at no charge. Anyone needing a dog house or knowing of an animal in distress should contact Animal Control Officer, Bobby Patton to ensure the animal’s safety.
The City would like to remind residents of some cold weather safety tips:
1. Outside dogs should be brought inside during extreme cold weather. But, when pets are outside, owners should provide pets with a house that is secure from air leaks and has a � oor that is o� the ground to avoid water coming into the house.
2. Dog and cat houses should have significant bedding (straw) put into the dog/cat house to allow the animal to lay in to keep warm
3. Make sure your pet always has access to water. Especially if you have any pets living outside, it’s im-portant to make sure that their water source doesn’t freeze over. You may have to change/add water to bowls, at least twice a day, to avoid
the animal becoming dehy-drated.
4. Don’t leave your pet outdoors roaming unat-tended. If your pet does go outdoors, make sure they are wearing their ID tags. Pets can become disoriented outdoors, during snow storms, and get lost.
5. Check your pet’s paws for ice and salt. Clean your pet’s paws after a walk outside. Ice salt can be toxic if ingested.
6. Monitor your pet’s diet. Dogs may spend more calo-ries in the colder months. Animal’s bodies expend energy to keep warm in the cold. You may need to in-crease your pet’s daily amount of food to compen-sate for this.

It happened at the temple gate called Beauti-ful. A man 40 years old, born lame, experienced a beautiful miracle of healing that brought mul-titudes to believe in the beautiful Savior called Jesus. (Acts 3) Isaiah prophesied of the work of Christ. “� e Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor... to console those who mourn... to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning.” (Isaiah 61:1-3) When Peter and
John saw this poor, lame, beggar sitting at the gate beautiful, they put their eyes of faith on him. Peter declared, “’Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk’... so he, leaping up,, stood and walked and entered the temple with them — walking, leaping, and praising God.” (Acts 3:1-10) In this healing miracle we see keys to New Testament faith that releases beautiful mira-cles.
T H E H O U R O F PRAYER PREPARES GOD’S SERVANTS FOR
MIRACLES. “Now Peter and John went up togeth-er to the temple at the hour of prayer.” (Acts 3:1-2) It appears that the disciples observed regular times of corporate prayer. Peter and John were going to a prayer meeting. � e old saints who moved the kingdom of God were called prayer warriors. Jesus asked his disciples in the Garden of Geth-semane, “What! Could you not watch with me one hour?” (Matthews 26:40-41) If we had more prayer warriors, we would have more miracles. (James 5:13-16) An hour of prayer can become an hour of power.
THE LAME BEGGAR EXPECTED SOME-THING. New Testament faith expects answers to prayer. “So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.” (Acts 3:5) Do you expect miracles from
God? (Hebrews 11:1)THE KEY TO NEW
TESTAMENT FAITH IS JESUS. In the last two days I have prayed for two lost keys. In each situation the Holy Spirit impressed on my mind where they were, In each case the owner said they had already looked in those locations, but a� er looking again — that’s where they were found. Peter declared to the lame beggar. “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.” (Acts 3:6) � e man was instantly healed. Jesus is the key. Peter pro-claimed, “And his name, through faith in his name, has made this man strong, whom you see and know.” (Acts 3:16) For many, faith in the name of Jesus is the lost key that, when found will release your miracle. As Chris Tomlinson’s song, “Indescribable” says,
“Our God an amazing God.” It will take 10,000 years just to begin to sing of the indescribable glories of Jesus. (Romans 10:8-10)
BRINGING GLORY TO G OD I S T H E P U R P O S E A N D BEAUTY OF MIRACLES. � e lame man was healed and went walking, leaping, and praising God. “And all the people saw him walking and praising God... and they were � lled with wonder and amaze-ment at what had hap-pened to him.” (Acts 3:8-10) Because of this miracle at the gate called Beautiful, over 5,000 men plus women and children came to believe in Christ Jesus. (Acts 4:4)
PREACHING JESUS IS A KEY TO NEW TESTA-MENT FAITH AND MIRACLES. Peter always took the opportunity that
miracles provided to preach the beautiful name of Jesus. He preached the good news of Christ’s suf-fering, crucifixion, and resurrection from the dead. “But you denied the Holy One and the Just... and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses.” (Acts 3:11-16) � e Holy Spirit worked conviction of sin. “Repent, therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.” (Acts 3:19-21) Repentance brings times of refreshing.
What is the key to the beautiful gate of miracles? Faith in the name of Jesus.

In the next few weeks we'll see a couple of debates, one Democrat-ic debate on Saturday, December 19 and one Republican debate on Tuesday, December 15. (Will they be game changers?) And before we know it, February will have arrived.
Right now many are saying, "Can anything stop Donald Trump? How many times can you poke a stick in someone's eye."
Today 19% of Ameri-cans say they can't trust their government. Amer-icans' overall views of the federal government are very negative: 74% of Americans believe most elected o� cials put their own interests ahead of the country's and 55% believe ordinary Ameri-cans would do a better job solving problems. In general, Americans are fed up with Washington, and who can blame them! Then there's Hillary Clinton and her email scandals, among other lies, and she's very much part of the current Wash-ington scene.
So at this point, what about Mr. Trump! It seems Trump supporters don't care what he says, they're going to support him! Recent polls show Trump is more trustwor-thy than Hillary Clinton. And I get that!
On the campaign trail, Cruz is rising and Bernie Sanders crowds are drop-ping. � ere are a lot of people that like Ben Carson but they don't see him as a leader.
Putting everything aside, I personally believe most are looking at sup-porting someone who has the greatest chance of keeping the homeland safe. Someone who can deal with the economy as well as someone who supports their views on gun control, abortion and healthcare. In other words, cultural issues. The big question is, which candidate � ts with your views?
To Colorado Springs. In the Planned Parent-hood siege, three lost their lives and numbers were wounded by a de-ranged individual. And of course, the main-stream media is trying to link the blame for this tragedy to people who are against abortion. You gotta love it. Let's blame those who have spoken out and voiced their opinions against Planned Parenthood, saying or alluding to comments that conversat ions against Planned Parent-hood could have played a part in this recent vio-lence in Colorado Springs.
Never mind that the shooter has had a long history of mental illness; has been a malcontent and drifter; a recluse living without running water and other human necessities for some people; had been arrested for animal abuse, among other crimes; and has no known affiliation with any anti-abortion group.
What happened is a tragedy, but let's blame the person responsible, the crazy that pulled the trigger. Obama, on the heels of this mass shoot-ing, issued a refrain for more gun control. Let me say people who desire to kill people will have no problem getting guns despite what the extreme liberals say.
And certainly pro lifers would never condone this killer's actions.
� e issue we need to be dealing with is the mental illness issue! � at's a huge problem in this country; it's apparent Obama doesn't get that!
Until next week.

World War III and IV
World War IV has begun while World War III is still going strong. With the attacks on the citizens of France and the downing of the Russian airliner, the rest of the civilized nations may now take these terrorists much more seriously. These murder-crazed fanatics live in a world of delusions and falsehoods — a major symptom of insanity. While the leaders may know the real truth, they manipu-late and brainwash these lost humans into insane acts of violence.
Now is the time for the nations of NATO, Russia and Asian nations to unite — putting di� er-ences aside — and put an end to the threat of these depraved individuals. Let us not call these terror-ists Islamic. � ey are no more Islamic than Hitler was Christian. � at also goes for groups like skin-heads, Ku Klux Klan and other such groups with extreme and narrow views who use religion as their excuse for hatred and bigotry.

� e Quincy University women's volleyball team has signed Christ Our Rock Lutheran High School senior Mollie Rueter as a recruit for the class of 2016. Rueter was one of three recruits announced recent-ly by the university.
"I believe we have signed another group of players that have the talent and ability to help our program continue to improve as soon as they get here," head coach Bob Crank said. "� e ability to contribute early to our programs improve-ment has been a major factor in who we look at for potential incoming players. The last two recruiting classes for QU women's vol-leyball; eight of nine saw playing time as freshmen. � is class should be no ex-ception. All of them have the ability to make a posi-tive impact on our program next August."
Mollie Rueter was named First Team All-Conference her junior season and S e c o n d Te a m A l l -Conference her senior season at Christ Our Rock Lutheran High School. Her
freshman season she was named Rookie of the Year. Rueter is a four year varsity letter winner. Her senior season, she helped Christ Our Rock Lutheran to a Regional Championship and Sweet 16 berth.
With her club team, Topspin, Rueter took second in Gold at Academy Invitational and second at the President ' s Day Tournament in 2015. She is
the secretary for the National Honor Society, a member of the Student Leadership Team, the pres-ident of the Service Club, and a perennial President's List recipient. She will study pre-medical at Quincy with aspirations of becoming a pediatrician. Mollie is the daughter of Philip and Julie Rueter of Ho� man..
"Mollie is a well-rounded volleyball player; good at
all skills of the sport," said coach Crank. "We see her helping us as a defensive specialist at first, able to step in and elevate our serve receive and defensive play in key situations. Having played a few di� erent posi-tions over the years, she has a good head for the game and good instincts. We are excited about her growth and development into a true Libero."

'Joy of Cooking'
Q: My mother collected cookbooks during the 1930s and '40s. She has the 1943 edition of "Joy of Cooking" by Irma S. Rombauer. I un-derstand that this particular edition is quite collectible. A neighbor has o� ered me $25 for it. Should I sell or keep? — Lydia, Chester� eld, Mis-souri
A: Your neighbor's o� er sounds half-baked to me, and I'll explain why.
"� e Joy of Cooking" was originally published in 1931, compiled by Irma Rombauer and illustrated by her daughter, Marion. It was a rather straightfor-ward collection of recipes with a German-American
twist. This cookbook, simply put, is one of the most famous and signi� -cant cookbooks in Ameri-can history. It has had more than a half-dozen editions and somehow, even a� er 84 years, has remained rele-vant.
� e 1943 edition is espe-cially interesting. Irma began revising her cook-book in 1942, keeping in mind that American cooking had changed since the start of World War II. Ration cards and shortages were commonplace. Her 1943 edition even featured meat substitutes, using le� -over foods and sugarless desserts. Her suggestions for wartime emergency soups are just as valid today
as when they were featured more than 70 years ago.
Although the f irst edition of "Joy of Cooking" can sell for several thou-sand dollars, the 1943 edition also is desirable. I have seen several copies of this edition sell in the $75-$150 range.
Incidentally, this is my favorite cookbook and hardly a week goes by that I don't use it, and yes, it is the 1943 edition.
***Q: I have a Pez dispenser
that I have had since 1983. It is "Little Orphan Annie." Is it worth keeping? — Drake, Davenport, Iowa
A: I found your Pez dis-penser in several of my price guides, and they seem
to agree that "Little Orphan Annie," which was issued in about 1982, is valued in the $120 to $180 range. A good reference is "Collec-tor's Guide to Pez: Identi-� cation & Price Guide" by Shawn Peterson and pub-lished by Krause Books.
***Q: I have a Singer sewing
machine that is one of the AH series. Can you tell me when it was manufactured? — Carol, Sun City West, Arizona
A: Your Singer was pro-duced during a two-year period: 1947-48.

• Th ree ways to use an empty tissue box: 1) store plastic grocery bags inside; 2) line with a small plastic trash bag and use in your car as a travel trash can; 3) cut out the bottom and use it to disguise an extra toilet tissue roll in your guest bath!
• Love oranges? Save the peels to add to your pot-pourri mix. Remove as much of the pith as possi-ble, and cut into strips. Air dry in bright light for about a week. Or you can set the
strips on parchment and dry in a partially closed oven set to 175 F for about 45 minutes. Check o� en.
• "When the last serving of jam has been used, I will happily add some oil and vinegar to the jar, along with a few choice spices, then shake. It's an instant vinaigrette, with a fruity tang." — C.L. in Tennessee
• Keep your jeans or other denim items from fading by soaking them in a solution of cold water and salt (two tablespoons to a
gallon) for about an hour before washing.
• How can you keep snow and ice o� your wind-shield? Some say a solution of three parts vinegar to one part water sprayed on the windshield each night can cut your ice-scraping time in half or better. (Use caution to avoid your paint job.) Try covering your wipers with an old pair of long socks so they don't freeze to the glass!

Wright Brothers Day, observed on December 17, marks the day in 1903 that two adventurous brothers in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina took to the air for the � rst time. It was a modern miracle at the time and a catalyst for the age of interconti-nental travel. Over a hundred years later, it’s commonplace for people to � y across the country. Most of us don’t consider all the preparation and patience it took to achieve this modern feat of � ight.
Luckily, planning your � nancial future isn’t as daunting as pioneering modern aviation. Social Security has secure and easy-to-use online re-sources that can ensure your retirement soars above the clouds. The sooner you start planning for retirement, the better prepared you’ll be. Just like building a reliable airplane, you’ll need � nely tuned parts that will work together for you to take � ight.
� ink of your retire-ment strategy as a � ight plan that propels you higher. We have many resources at www.so-cialsecurity.gov/planners/retire that help you � nd the age at which you may � rst become entitled to unreduced retirement bene� ts, estimate your life expectancy, and calculate your estimated bene� ts. � ese tools explain how much money you will need and for how long — something you can adjust through personal savings, pensions, and other bene� ts.
You can also get per-sonalized benefit esti-mates using the Retire-ment Estimator at www.socialsecurity.gov/estima-tor. � e Estimator shows di� erent scenarios, like how future wage changes or alternate retirement dates will affect your future benefits. Benefit amounts may di� er from the estimates provided because:
• Your earnings may
increase or decrease in the future.
• Aft er you start receiv-ing bene� ts, they may be adjusted for cost-of-living increases.
• Your estimated ben-e� ts are based on current law. � e law governing benefit amounts may change because, by 2034, the payroll taxes collected under current law will be enough to pay only about 79 cents for each dollar of scheduled bene� ts.
• Your benefi t amount may be a� ected by mili-tary service, railroad em-ployment or pensions earned through work on which you did not pay Social Security tax.
As you can see, your � ight plan to retirement may change over your lifetime. It’s important you understand that no matter where life takes you, the long journey to retirement is one of your most important trips. With every right decision, you’re making your re-tirement flight plan a success that will carry you through the heights of your golden years.
It’s never too early to start planning. Whether you are nearly ready to retire or if you’re just getting o� the ground in your career, I recommend you create your own my Social Security account so you can also learn about all the future benefits available to you. Visit www.socialsecurity.gov/myaccount to create your account.
Question:I prefer reading by audio
book. Does Social Security have audio publications?
Answer:Yes, we have many
helpful publications you can listen to. You can � nd them at www.socialsecu-rity.gov/pubs. Some of the publications available include What You Can Do Online, How Social Security Can Help You When a Family Member Dies, Apply Online for Social Security Bene� ts, and Your Social Security
Card and Number. You can listen now at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs.
Question:I am receiving Social
Security retirement bene-fits and I recently went back to work. Do I have to pay Social Security (FICA) taxes on my income?
Answer:Yes. By law, your em-
ployer must withhold FICA taxes from your paycheck. Although you are retired, you do receive credit for those new earn-ings. Each year Social Security automatically credits the new earnings and, if your new earnings are higher than in any earlier year used to calcu-late your current bene� t, your monthly benefit could increase. For more information, visit www.socialsecurity.gov.
Question:How are my retirement
bene� ts calculated?Answer:Your Social Security
benefits are based on earnings averaged over your lifetime. Your actual earnings are � rst adjusted or "indexed" to account for changes in average wages since the year the earnings were received. � en we calculate your average monthly indexed earnings during the 35 years in which you earned the most. We apply a formula to these earnings and arrive at your basic bene� t. � is is the amount you would receive at your full retirement age. You may be able to estimate your bene� t by using our Retirement Estimator, which offers estimates based on your Social Se-curity earnings. You can � nd the Retirement Esti-mator at www.socialsecu-rity.gov/estimator.
Question:I know that Social Secu-
rity’s full retirement age is gradually rising to 67. But does this mean the “early” retirement age will also be going up by two years, from age 62 to 64?
Answer:No. While it is true that
under current law the full retirement age is gradu-ally rising from 65 to 67, the “early” retirement age remains at 62. Keep in mind, however, that taking early retirement reduces your benefit amount. For more infor-mation about Social Se-curity bene� ts, visit the website at www.socialse-curity.gov.
Question:I’ve heard there is a way
for my daughter to get her disability application on the “fast-track.” How does this work?
Answer:If your daughter has
one of the more than 200 impairments on the Com-passionate Allowances list at www.socialsecurity.gov/compassionateallow-ances, her application might be “fast-tracked”
for a decision. Compas-sionate Allowances make it possible for applicants to receive a decision on their disability applica-tions within days instead of months or years as long as their medical condi-tions are so severe that they obviously meet Social Security’s de� ni-tion of disability. Learn more at www.socialsecu-rity.gov/compassionateal-lowances.

� e popularity of yoga has grown considerably in recent years. � ough yoga may trace its origins to ancient India, nowadays this popular approach to balancing the mind and body is practiced all over the world.
For those who want to give yoga a try, it helps to be familiar with some of the basic poses one can expect to encounter at the gym or yoga studio. While few can master the following poses on their � rst day, beginners should know that if they commit to regularly prac-ticing yoga, these poses will get easier over time.
Chair pose� is is a bended position
pose in which the knees are bent over the ankles. Arms are up, and the torso forms a right angle over the thighs. Beginners can ex-periment with moving the feet closer together for a more advanced pose. Do not extend the knees over the toes and rest on the heels.
Child’s pose� is is a pose for rest and
stretching. Get in a kneel-ing position with toes touching and hips and knees spread apart. Extend the arms overhead on the � oor and lower the fore-head to the ground.
Downward-facing dog� is is an inversion that
opens up the entire body and can stretch the spine and the back of the legs. � e back should be straight and the tailbone should be pulled away so your body forms a “V” shape.
Forward foldWhen performing a
forward fold, you are
bending over from the waist. Having a straight spine is more important than having straight legs.
Mountain poseMountain pose is
perhaps the most basic of all the poses and also one that is quite important, as it aligns the spine with the rest of the body and grounds you. Lift your thighs and lengthen through the waist, drawing in the navel. � is serves as the basis for other poses.
Tree poseTree pose is an introduc-
tion to balance poses. You stand on one foot as the other lays nestled against the thigh on the standing leg.
Warrior one
This pose places a leg forward into a right angle in which the knee is over
the arch of the foot. � e back leg is extended into a 45-degree angle behind the body. Arms are raised above the head. Both hips should be facing forward.
Warrior twoWarrior two is similar to
warrior one, but the arms are stretched in opposite directions parallel to the � oor. Turn the head and look out over your arm in the direction you are facing.
Various poses may be covered in beginner yoga classes, and beginners un-familiar with certain poses can simply pause and observe their fellow class-mates if they are unsure of certain poses. Always begin slowly and breathe when working through these poses; consult with a yoga instructor to help develop proper form.
COMMON YOGA POSES TO KNOW
In downward-facing dog, the key is to have a straight back and elongate the spine.

Separating fact from � ction can be di� cult, es-pecially when it comes to information about your health. Cutting through the Internet clutter and opin-ions from friends to uncover the truth is key to keeping the mind and body well.
Dr. Jennifer Johnson, naturopathic doctor at Bastyr University School of Naturopathic Medicine, offers her expert insight into five of the most common health myths.
Myth 1: Omega-3 fatty acids increase the risk of prostate cancer.
A new study does not support the reported as-sociation between omega-3 fatty acids and the risk of prostate cancer put forth by a widely publicized 2013 study. By disputing these findings, the new study reaffirms that men can
safely consume omega-3 fatty acids from dietary sources, or from supple-ments, and continue to reap the substantial health ben-efits of omega-3s. Learn more about the study at http://goo.gl/mwKSMM.
"Omega-3 fatty acids are vital to our health. � ey work to help lower in� am-mation, reduce risk of de-veloping cardiovascular disease, lower triglycerides and blood pressure, and have overall positive e� ects on immune and brain func-tion," says Johnson. "� e recent meta-analysis with respect to prostate health and fish oil does in fact show that men who take � sh oil, either from dietary sources or supplements, are at no increased risk for prostate cancer."
Johnson stresses that there is no known mecha-nism by which omega-3 fatty acids would increase the risk of prostate cancer. To the contrary, there is research suggesting that omega-3 fatty acids might inhibit prostate cancer cell growth.
Myth 2: Vitamin C pre-vents the common cold.
If you're like many people, you reach for a bottle of vitamin C at the � rst sign of a cold. � is is a good choice, as vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that boosts the immune system to � ght o� infection when you are sick. However, while vitamin C is a good option for treating a cold, it does not work to prevent colds before onset.
"Vitamin C has been shown to reduce the length of colds and can help treat symptoms," says Johnson. "Though beneficial and quite safe, vitamin C has not been found to consis-tently prevent colds. If you do start to feel the sni� es, supplement with 500-1000 mg/day."
Myth 3: Everyone should take a multivitamin each day.
Vitamins and minerals play a vital role in the normal functioning of our bodies, from skin and bone development, to brain and heart function. However, research is inconsistent when it comes to multivi-tamins so an individualized approach is best.
"One size does not � t all," says Johnson. "Adding in all those nutrients in o� en a fairly low dose may not provide enough therapeutic benefit to help any one problem. To really target your health concerns using vitamins, see your health care provider to determine if there is a vitamin/mineral recommendation that is just right for you. Better yet, eating more fresh fruits and vegetables will provide your body with compounds and nutrients that truly do bene� t the body."
Myth 4: Most people get adequate vitamin D through diet.
"Vitamin D is essential for bone health, and the actions of vitamin D are considered hormonal. � is means that this compound truly has far-reaching
e� ects on the body and has been shown to support immune function and improve mood," says Johnson. "Studies show that this 'sunny vitamin' may also help to prevent cancer."
When the skin is direct-ly exposed to sunlight, vitamin D synthesis begins, explains Johnson. In order for enough vitamin D to be produced, the skin would have to be in direct sunlight most days for 20 minutes, which most people do not experience consistently. "Supplements are a good option for getting adequate vitamin D, but make sure to check with your doctor for proper dosage. I suggest the natural vitamin D3 form," says Johnson.
Myth 5: An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Apples are a good source of antioxidants and beta-carotene, which are very bene� cial for overall health. They are also fiber rich, which promotes gut health. But apples are just one of many e� ective ways to fend o� a visit to the doctor.
"First, sleeping enough sets the stage for good health, as sleep is the time for repair," says Johnson. "Additionally, managing stress helps the immune system function best. When the body perceives stress, immune function goes down. Stress is normal, but having a balanced life will always promote health. Rest, exercise, keeping hy-drated, maintaining a positive attitude and eating a balanced diet of whole foods is the true Rx for health." (BPT)

Chronic obstructive pul-monary disease and lung cancer can have a substan-tial impact on a person’s health, a� ecting how well the body is able to process oxygen. Both can be a serious side effect of smoking, but is there a re-lationship between cancer and COPD?
Various experts, includ-ing the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
in collaboration with the Div is ion of C ancer Prevention of the National Cancer Institute, have weighed in on the link between COPD and lung cancer. COPD appears to be a strong risk factor for lung cancer, even among people who have never smoked.
“Recent studies suggest that the genetic risk factors that predispose smokers to COPD may overlap with
those that predispose smokers to lung cancer,” said Brian Carlin, M.D., a pulmonologist and chair-man of the COPD Alliance. “A majority of patients with lung cancer have underly-ing, but o� en undiagnosed, COPD.”
� e Cancer Prevention and Treatment Fund orga-nization notes that more than half of all people with lung cancer also have COPD. Very often the
symptoms of both condi-tions mesh. A person may discover he or she has COPD and then lung cancer, or vice-versa. Patients with either lung cancer or COPD o� en ex-perience coughing and shortness of breath. � ey also may experience re-peated episodes of pneu-monia or bronchitis. But cancer may have its own distinct symptoms, such as hoarseness, blood in
sputum, weight loss, and lack of appetite.
Lung cancer and COPD both can be fatal conditions when detected too late. Although COPD cannot be reversed, there are lifestyle changes and medications that can make breathing easier. Quitting smoking can prevent more serious consequences down the line, and many people with early stage cancers can be cured. As with many types of cancers, the stage of the cancer at diagnosis heavily
in� uences prognosis.People can take steps to
stay on top of their pulmo-nary health. Quitting smoking and avoiding sec-ondhand smoke is one of the most important things people can do. Recurring symptoms of coughing, shortness of breath or fatigue should be brought to the attention of your doctor. If COPD is diag-nosed, recognize that lung cancer may not be far behind.
When it comes to a fast metabolism, some people seem to have hit the genetic jackpot. Luckily, your me-tabolism doesn't solely depend on factors out of your control such as genet-ics , age, or gender. Modifying your exercise habits and making wiser food choices are two ways anyone can achieve a faster metabolism and a smaller waistline.
Increased physical activ-ity a� ects the metabolism more than anything else but before you opt to take the stairs over the elevator make sure you are fueling your body with the energy it needs. A great � rst step is to examine your diet and understand which foods will give you long-lasting energy to help you move more during the day and burn more calories.
"When making changes to your diet, aim to eat an energy-revving complex carbohydrate with a nutri-ent-rich protein," says per-sonal trainers and regis-tered dietitians Lyssie Lakatos and Tammy Lakatos Shames - "The Nutrition Twins". "For example, we recommend pairing oatmeal with a healthy protein l ike Eggland's Best eggs.
Compared to ordinary eggs, EB eggs contain the same amount of protein with only 60 calories, aiding in fat loss; more nutrients like omega-3s, contributing to satiety and weight loss; and vitamin B12 which assists in producing energy to power metabolism"
Here are some foods � e Nutrition Twins recom-mend to help boost your metabolism:
Eggs � e satiating and blood
sugar stabilizing protein found in eggs helps keep you full and extends the power boost from carbohy-drates like oats. Chose Eggland's Best eggs over ordinary eggs because they provide three times more vitamin B12, a nutrient that assists the body in creating energy, as well as double the omega-3s which stimulate leptin, a hormone that in-creases feelings of fullness.
Oats � e complex carbohy-
drates in oats fuel your brain and your body. Without them, your me-tabolism will su� er because you'll have very little energy to be active and burn calo-ries. Oats are also fiber-� lled which helps extend energy levels.
BerriesBerries, such as black-
berries and strawberries, taste great and contain the phytochemical known as Cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G). Research shows C3G aids in the production of both adiponectin, which enhances fat metabolism, and leptin, which sup-presses appetite.

Uneven skin tone is a common, relatively harm-less condition that a� ects mil l ions of people. Hyp er pig ment at ion (darkened areas) and hy-popigmentation (light-ened areas) are examples of uneven skin tone condi-tions that people often hope to alleviate.
Changes in skin tone can a� ect people of all ages and races. Some of the more widely known skin tone changes are the for-mation of freckles and age spots. The American Osteopathic College of
Dermatology advises that lightened or darkened patches of the skin can occur anywhere on the body and are usually the result of exposure to the sun. Melanin is produced by the skin as a protective agent. When skin is exposed to UV radiation, melanin absorbs the sun’s rays and darkens the skin to reduce instances of burns and other damage. Excessive melanin can produce darkened areas that are disproportionate to other parts of the skin. In cases where skin tone
already is uneven, sun ex-posure can exacerbate the situation.
Some skin tone abnor-malities are hereditary, while others may result from hormonal issues during pregnancy. People may experience such ab-normalities after a skin injury, while others may experience some instanc-es as a natural response to skin in� ammation.
One of the easiest and most e� ective ways to al-leviate pigmentation issues is to apply a sun-screen with a minimum
SPF of 30 each and every day. Look for a product that blocks both UVA and UVB light. Sunscreen needs to be reapplied at regular intervals, espe-cially when spending pro-longed time outdoors.
Exfoliation of the skin may promote faster shed-ding of the exterior layers of the skin. Stores carry many at-home exfoliating kits and creams. However, if you are unsure which types of products are best for your skin, consult with a dermatologist.
Dermatologists may prescribe lightening creams that will slowly
lighten darkened skin. Malasma is an uneven
pigmentation that can occur on the face and may be a side effect of hor-monal imbalances caused by pregnancy, menopause or use of oral contracep-tives. Melasma can clear up on its own a� er preg-nancy, but if it is linked to contraceptive use, speak with a doctor about chang-ing the pill to using another method of con-traception to see if it al-leviates the problem.
Makeup may be used to mask any irregularities in skin tone until another treatment method is
found. If topical treat-ments do not work, chem-ical peels, microderm-a b r a s i o n o r l a s e r treatments may work. But such treatments should only be administered under the guidance of a quali� ed doctor.
Skin pigmentation problems can be embar-rassing. Reducing sun exposure and covering up can typically alleviate many cases of hyperpig-mentation, but there are other options available as well. Speak with a derma-tologist if you have con-cerns about uneven skin tone.
Household bacteria can be a serious issue a� ecting your health. In fact, the very steps we take to eliminate harmful bacte-ria may be spreading it. Everyone washes their fresh fruits and vegetables, but the water in your pipes may contain even more bacteria, especially if you
have hard water.� e problem isn't only
in the kitchen. When you take a hot shower, the steam you are inhaling can also contain the same mi-crobial contamination that is in the rest of your plumbing, exposing you to pathogenic bacteria such as Legionella, which
can cause Legionnaire's disease.
The piping used in home plumbing, whether it is copper or PVC, has very smooth interior sur-faces which don't permit bacteria to settle and grow. However, hard water, which contains high levels of calcium and magne-
sium, results in scale for-mation on the interior surfaces of those pipes which provides a perfect home for bacteria.
Researchers at the School of Sustainable Engineering at Arizona State University found that bacteria may grow at the same rate in pipes � lled with both hard and so� scale. � is is impor-tant new information as some forms of water con-ditioners produce this so� scale.
� e only solution to this problem is to remove the scaling in the pipes en-tirely, which only a tradi-tional salt-based water so� ener can do. � is type of water so� ener works by running the incoming hard water through a resin � lter that traps the calcium
and magnesium in the water, as well as any iron, manganese or radium ions, and replaces them with sodium ions.
Bacterial growth in plumbing is well docu-mented and can cause serious hygienic problems in water systems, espe-cially in hospital buildings and hotels. Factors like water � ow and plumbing materials influence the growth rate of bacteria, but once it's in your pipes, it's distributed throughout your home each time you turn on the faucet.
� e fact is that salt not only helps remove and prevent the hard water scaling in home plumbing, it is also a natural antibi-otic. � roughout history, people have used salt as a vital food preservative to keep bacteria from growing on cured meats
and cheeses. New research form the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine shows that salt acts as an antibiotic in the body as well. In the case of a skin infection, the body naturally moves more salt to that spot to fight the infection. The extra salt also helps the body's defensive systems more e� ectively � ght in-fection.
If you have hard water, there are signi� cant ben-efits to having a tradi-tional salt-based water softener in your home. Use a home water testing kit to test for water hard-ness yourself, or have a water treatment profes-sional do the testing.

Hunting Isn’t Answer to Feral Cat Problem
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: There was a furor last summer over a veterinarian who shot a feral cat with an arrow. While animal lovers’ fury was understandable, what wasn’t addressed is the massive population of feral cats in the United States. Cats are very e� ective hunters and have decimated native popu-lations of small wildlife. What is your opinion on the suggestion to hunt feral cats rather than simply trap, neuter or spay, then release them back into the wild? — A Feral Cat Friend in Florida.
DEAR FRIEND: I think that we shouldn’t give up on TNR (trap, neuter, release) programs, though addi-tional solutions need to be looked into. Hunting isn’t one of those solutions.
In 2004, a study published in the Journal of American Ve t e r i n a r y Me d i c a l Association said that the population of feral cats in the U.S. was nearing the number of cats that had a home — about 50 million feral versus 73 million do-mesticated. However, while about 85 percent of female cats that had owners were spayed, only 2 percent of feral female cats were. (www.avma.org/News/Journals/Collections/Documents/javma_225_9_1354.pdf) I wrote about the problem those many years ago, advo-cating TNR.
Fast-forward to 2014: A TNR study conducted in Alachua County, Florida, found that increasing aware-ness among area residents and encouraging them to TNR feral cats helped reduce the number of cats entering the local shelter by 66 percent. (www.sciencedi-rect.com/science/article/pii/S1090023314001841)
So, providing local educa-tion and resources to resi-dents helps them actively and humanely participate in the gradual reduction of feral cat colonies. Fewer cats
in an area can help the local wildlife rebound. Whether or not you own pets, you can play a role in reducing the feral cat population without using a bow and arrow. Start
with organizations dedi-cated to achieving this, such as Alley Cat Allies at saveacat.org.

• It was Scottish novel-ist and politician John Buchan who made the following sage observa-tion: "We can pay our debt to the past by putting the future in debt to ourselves."
• Th e general board of the prestigious University of Cambridge has rec-ommended that the in-stitution hire a Professor of Lego. Yep. � e lucky academic will head up the Research Centre on
Play in Education, D e ve l opm e nt an d Learning. On a related note, Cambridge recent-ly received a donation of more than $6 million f r o m t h e L e g o Foundation.
• If you happen to have 40 billion Lego bricks lying around, you could, theoretically, build a tower to the moon.
• Single-shot coffee makers like Keurig are increasingly popular, but
the inventor of the K-Cup coffee pods doesn't actually use them himself. John Sylvan says, "I don't have one. � ey're kind of expensive to use." He added, "It's not like drip coffee is tough to make."
• Beloved British author Charles Dickens was forced to go to work at the age of 11, pasting labels on bottles of shoe polish in a boot-blacking factory. Soon a� er, his father was put in debtors' prison, and when his mother and siblings went to live with him there; young Charles was le� to live on the streets and fend for himself. It's not surprising, then, that
a� er Dickens achieved the great success he enjoyed as a writer, he was an ardent campaign-er for children's rights.
• If you plan to become a patriotic citizen of Greece, I hope you have a good memory: The Greek national anthem has a whopping 158 verses.
