Giving Kids A Great Smile
(NAPSI)—Here’s information many families may care to sink their teeth into: Although tooth decay is largely preventable, it remains one of the most common chronic diseases of children.
The Problem According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly one in four children under the age of 5 already hascavities, while tooth decay is four times more common than asthma among adolescents. What’s more, children are five times more likely to seek emergency room treatment for dental problems than for asthma, often because they can’t see a dentist, are uninsured or can’t afford routine care. The effect of untreated caries goes far beyond oral health. Children with toothaches have more school absences, cannot pay attention in school or keep up with their peers academically, and have lower standardized test scores. Yet when state revenues begin to decline, dental care is often the first thing cut from state Medicaid budgets. Restoring the lost revenue has proven to be a difficult and slow task. Many people have asked their state legislators where they stand on the issue. What You Can Do The good news is that tooth decay is preventable. To ensure good oral health for your child: • Have your child visit a dentist for a first checkup by age 1, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. • Use fluoride toothpaste for children over 2 years old. • Talk to your child’s dentist about dental sealants that can protect teeth from decay. To help other children avoid cavities, you can join the largest children’s oral health charitable program in the U.S., Give Kids A Smile (GKAS). In the past 15 years, it’s reached more than 5.5 million children thanks to more than 500,000 volunteers at thousands of sites. The American Dental Association Foundation provides a toolkit of guidelines and materials, thanks to corporate sponsors such as Henry Schein—a worldwide distributor of medical, dental and veterinary supplies including vaccines, pharmaceuticals, financial services and equipment—so dentists can provide free oral health education, screenings, and preventive and restorative services at 1,300 unique GKAS events around the country. Many GKAS events take place on February 3, National Give Kids A Smile Day, and each event is as unique as the volunteers who organize them, ranging from a dental team that sees patients, to a hygienist who provides oral health education in a school, to large-scale events that treat hundreds of children at a community event. Volunteers are the heart of GKAS. The success of the program is the result of the strong commitment these “Smile Champions” show to making a difference in their communities. What Else Is Being Done More needs to be done to help alleviate the silent epidemic of tooth decay and to create awareness about the future of children’s oral health in this country. Research has shown that every dollar spent on preventive dental care could save a patient as much as $50 in restorative and emergency treatments. To help, the program is also working on an evidence-based approach to stop cavities and other oral health issues. The Give Kids A Smile model can be replicated nationwide to reduce the incidence of cavities and other oral health issues for all children. Learn More For further facts on dental health and how you can volunteer, donate, and participate in GKAS events, visit www.adafoundation.org/gkas or call 1-844-490-GKAS.

Possible Property Tax Rebate For Decedents
Thanks to a recent Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania decision, estates of property owners who died between 2004-2009 can now claim rebates on real estate property taxes paid in the year of death, provided a property tax rebate was received in the year before the decedent’s death. The money was made available through a settlement which removed $20 million from the Pennsylvania Lottery Fund to create a class fund. Claims could range up to $975 per decedent, with an average of approximately $400. It is likely all valid claims will be paid.

Can You Believe It?Coffee King Buried in Coffee Pot
MONTEBUGLIO, Italy, Feb. (UPI) -- After Renato Bialetti, 93, died last week his children decided to honor his life's work by placing his ashes in a container that symbolized his family's legacy. During a funeral service in Montebuglio, Italy Bialleti's ashes were buried in a replica of the Moka coffee pot, which his father, Alfonso, invented.
Bialetti's three children Alfonso, Antonella and Alessandra reportedly, came up with the idea to bury their father in the octagonal coffee pot he dedicated his life to popularizing. Bialetti took the modest sales of his father's company, which had only manufactured 70,000 pots when he gained control in 1947, and used an aggressive marketing campaign to make the pot a staple in coffee-drinking homes, with approximately 330 million sold worldwide. The unique urn was blessed by a priest at the funeral ceremony attended by about 200 people at a church in Casale Corte Cerro, Piedmont. When the ceremony ended, the pot was placed in the family tomb next to the remains of Bialetti's wife Elia.
Safety.....Cold and Flu Myths
(BPT) - Some people are always on the move. Their weekend begins with a list of things to do and ends with a bunch of checked boxes. Lunch hours are time to squeeze in a visit to the gym or take advantage of sale. Each day is a marathon of activity.
If this is you, then you know nothing is worse than getting knocked down by a cold. Sitting on the couch, waiting to feel better while you could be running errands, working out or any number of things, is beyond frustrating. Speaking with a doctor isn't always convenient when you're sick, so many reach out to friends and family, desperate to find some way to feel better. More often than not, the home remedies they're given are nothing more than old wives' tales. A better plan of action is to turn to your pharmacist for help. Often more accessible than a doctor, all you have to do is walk up to the counter and ask them for expert advice. If you've ever wondered how to prevent a cold or how to feel better when you do have one, registered pharmacist and health expert, Jim Morelli, is here to weigh in on some of the most pervasive cold and flu myths, and point you to what really works. Myth #1: Going outside with wet hair can make you sick. Pharmacist's take: Going outside with wet hair can make you physically cold, but it will not cause a cold. It takes a virus to make you sick, which is contracted through exposure to germs. Myth #2: Feed a cold, starve a fever. Pharmacist's take: Fevers do not respond to food. That being said, it's always a good idea to maintain hydration and nutrition when sick. Myth #3: Chicken soup can cure the cold or flu. Pharmacist's take: Chicken soup is not a cure for anything but hunger. However, there is some evidence it can be beneficial when you have a cold or the flu because it is hydrating and contains needed electrolytes. Myth #4: The flu shot causes the flu. Pharmacist's take: The flu shot is actually a killed virus so it is not live. It cannot give you the flu. Even the weakened virus in the nasal spray vaccination should not cause the flu. Some people experience what is called a "serum sickness" from vaccinations, but this is a short lived period of feeling lousy as opposed to the actual flu. Myth #5: Avoid dairy when sick. Pharmacist's take: Unless you are taking a tetracycline antibiotic, typically used to treat respiratory tract and intestine infections, dairy is fine when you are sick. Keep in mind, however, that in some individuals, dairy can upset the stomach if they've got a stomach bug. While it might be disappointing to hear that chicken soup doesn't actually cure a cold, the upside is there is an actual way to feel better. Morelli recommends stocking your cabinet with cold and flu medicine, and the #1 pharmacist recommended brand to treat your worst cold and flu symptoms is Advil Cold & Sinus. Education...Middle school is a make-or-break time for budding scientists.
(BPT) - The subject matter gets more difficult, test anxiety often occurs and other interests emerge. U.S. students rank 27th in math and 20th in science out of 34 countries scored, according to the latest research from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. That lagging interest in STEM - science, technology, engineering and mathematics - is contributing to an ongoing U.S. shortage of highly-skilled workers that may reach 3 million by 2018.
3M, a company rooted in science, understands the need for the next generation of science innovators, inventors and leaders. For decades, 3M scientists and engineers have developed products that solve problems and improve lives. A shortage of STEM-savvy workers will slow innovation across all industries. If your child has a passion for science, encourage their curiosity. Here are some ideas from 3M science experts on how to further foster a love of science: 1. Find an after school program or STEM mentor. A high-quality STEM after school program leads to improved attitudes toward STEM fields and careers; increased STEM knowledge and skills; and higher likelihood of pursuing a STEM major in college according to a study from the Afterschool Alliance. Another option is to find a mentor. Teachers, college students and working professionals are often eager to share their knowledge with budding young scientists. Many universities and businesses encourage mentorship, and your school's science teachers might have some suggestions on where to find one that's right for your child. 2. Plan at home experiments. According to 3M science mentors, taking science out of a book and applying it to real life is one of the best ways to spark an interest in science. You can find plenty of science experiments to conduct inside your home. A great resource is www.scienceofeverydaylife.com, which features fun activities that explain science principles, like how solar energy works by cooking a pizza with the sun or how chemical reactions function by making homemade ice cream. 3. Encourage exploration. As interest grows, students are eager for more challenges. For instance, with the Summer Olympics on the horizon this year, a sport-loving student may want to explore more about the forces that impact gold medal-quality swimming, running or cycling. Linking science to another interest can further their passion. 4. Give them a challenge. A range of opportunities exist for interested students at science-based summer camps, after school programs or fairs. If your child is already on a path of science experimentation and innovation, consider encouraging him or her to enter science challenges and competitions. Each year 3M and Discovery Education partner to develop the Young Scientist Challenge. Students in grades 5-8 can enter the contest by creating a one to two-minute video on a proposed solution to solve an everyday problem. All video entries must be submitted online at www.youngscientistchallenge.comby April 20, 2016. 5. Hit the road. Going to an observatory or space museum is fun, but also a major learning opportunity. Before taking the trip, view the destination's website with your child and identify areas of particular interest. That will build anticipation and really amplify the visit. Over its nine years of involvement in the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge, 3M has seen the tremendous impact a parent, family member or mentor can make in a child's curiosity and confidence in science. That foundation yields strong critical thinking skills and opens the door for rewarding career opportunities with lasting benefits. 
1885 Club Accepting Nominations The Bangor Area High School Alumni Association is looking for nominations for induction into the 2017 "1885 Club Hall of Fame." In 1998, the members of the Bangor Area High School Alumni Association began to search for a way to honor graduates who have distinguished themselves through public service, scholarship, and recognition in their chosen fields of work.
Discussions naturally led to creating a Hall of Fame for such individuals. Concerned about possible confusion with the Athletic Hall of Fame, however, the committee began to seek ways to create a different type of recognition with its own unique distinction. From this collaboration, "The 1885 Club" was born. Named in honor of the first year in which a class of students graduated from Bangor High School, this exclusive club honors distinguished alumni and holds these individuals as outstanding examples for others to follow. Through the creation of "The 1885 Club" the Alumni Association underscores and upholds the fact that graduates from Bangor Area High School have been making tremendous contributions to mankind for more than 130 years. We reserve a special category for educators and administrators who have served the Bangor Area School District over its long history. To nominate someone for either of these awards, please go to the Bangor Area School District web site, click on the Alumni icon (under quick links) and then click on the 1885 Club. There you will find a printable form. Fill it out and mail it to the address shown or forward it to Carole J. Hontz at Bangor Area Middle School, 401 Five Points Richmond Road, Bangor, PA 18013-5267. Nominations can also be e mailed to hontzc@bangorsd.org

Let's celebrate and prepare ourselves for the return of 'Light' once again through ceremony, song, ritual and camaraderie of all your Sistars or just take 'me' time, walk the land, meditate and reflect! Of course, there is play time for the 'inner child' to create and express herself with our craft time! Later we honor Brighid with a healing Fire ceremony, followed by our deeply bonding bonfire gathering with song, chants, and 'placing of cloths' for Brighid's Blessings. Then let off 'steam' from all that fire work with a pulsating drumming circle! Gift yourself with the richly rewarding and fulfilling retreat experience, whether it be just one day or the whole weekend. It promises to be one of joy, growth, new friends, self-discovery and empowerment - doing 'inner work' has never been so rewarding! We look forward to 'connecting' with all our Sistars!
