    Thousands upon thou-

    sands of women have

    battled breast cancer.

    Some have pulled through the

    disease, while others suc-cumbed to the disease after a

    brave fight. Few people who

    have waged war with breast

    cancer are better known than

    Susan Komen, a name many

    instantly associate with the

    organization Susan G. Komen

    for the Cure, the most widely

    known, largest and well-fund-

    ed breast cancer organization

    in the United States.

    Susan G. Komen wasborn Susan Goodman in 1943

    in Peoria, Ill. According to her

    sister, Nancy, Susan was the

    high school homecoming

    queen and a college beauty

    queen. After graduating from

    college, Goodman returned to

    her hometown and pursued

    modeling, eventually marrying

    her high school sweetheart,Stan.

    Komen was diagnosed

    with breast cancer in 1977 after

    finding a lump that subsequent

    testing revealed was cancerous.

    Komen underwent a procedure

    called a subcutaneous mastec-

    tomy, in which the outside of

    the breast tissue was left intact,

    but the interior breast tissue

    was removed. The doctor who

    did the procedure assuredKomen that she was cured.

    Despite urging her sister to get

    a second opinion, Komen was

    convinced she was safe. But

    within six months Komen

    found another lump under her

    arm, and, by this point, it was

    evident that the cancer had

    spread. Doctors at the Mayo

    Clinic soon determined thecancer had metastasized to her

    lung and under her arm.

    Komen underwent sever-

    al different treatments to slow

    the progression of the cancer,

    including radiation and

    intense chemotherapy. How-

    ever, the cancer continued to

    spread and eventually her body

    developed a resistance to most

    of the medication. During

    treatment, Komen repeatedlyspoke with her sister about her

    wish to make the entire breast

    cancer experience and treat-

    ments in the hospital more

    palatable for women, including

    improving the appearance of

    waiting rooms and treatment

    centers, and doing other things

    to help comfort those who

    would find themselves in simi-lar situations in the future.

    Komen lost her battle with

    breast cancer in 1980 at age 36.

    By the time of her death,

    Komen had undergone nine

    operations and three courses of

    chemotherapy and radiation.

    Nancy Goodman Brinker

    then made it her mission to do

    everything she could to help

    end breast cancer and increase

    awareness of this potentiallydeadly disease. In 1982,

    Brinker established the Susan

    G. Komen Breast Cancer

    Foundation in her sisters

    memory. Since its inception,

    the organization, now called

    Susan G. Komen for the Cure,

    has provided funding for basic,

    clinical and translational

    breast cancer research projects.It also has become instrumen-

    tal in breast health education

    and urging women to do

    self-screening while promot-

    ing annual mammograms.

    Through the years, the founda-

    tion has teamed up with many

    well-known businesses, brands

    and organizations as part of its

    fundraising efforts. To date, the

    organization has invested $750

    million in breast cancerresearch, awarding many thou-

    sands of dollars in grants in

    countries around the world.

    Through her struggle

    with breast cancer, Susan

    Goodman Komen unknowing-ly inspired an organization that

    has helped to save the lives of

    millions. Learn more at

    Have you ever won-

    dered what it would

    be like to go back in

    time to instruct the younger

    you? Which mistakes to

    avoid which opportunitiesto seize the person not to

    marry or maybe just to see

    the one you did choose to

    marry as a child, knowing

    already how they turned out.

    What other news from the

    present would you tell the

    younger you to embrace, cap-

    ture, purchase or invest in?

    Many movies have

    broached the subject of time

    travel, most notably StarTrek and the Back to the

    Future collections. Alas, no

    such time machine exists, noteven in a Delorean, so we are

    destined to learn from our mis-

    takes or better yet, the mis-

    takes and successes of others!

    Because we actually did travel

    forward through our own time-

    lines to be where we are today,

    we have the benefit of sharing

    our proven wisdom, gained

    over decades of actual life

    experiences and education,

    with our children.Our children comprise a

    captive audience because they

    have to listen and pay atten-

    tion (at least when they still

    live under our roof!). They are

    an extension of us and carry

    our genetic code, so they cant

    be that much different from

    the source! In most circum-

    stances, we want more and

    better for our children than for

    ourselves, empowering us to bethe best teachers and them to

    be the best students of our

    morals, wisdom, drive andambition to succeed in all the

    areas of life.

    I get frustrated when one

    of my kids needs to learn from

    making his own mistakes

    instead of heeding his parental

    warnings, based on wisdom

    and experience and not simply

    because I said so. Its also

    frustrating for the children, asthey want to assert their inde-

    pendence, make their own

    choices and spread theirwings, letting the wind take

    them where it may.

    We try to explain that as

    their parents, we act as their

    compass or rudder guiding

    them, not just doing it for

    them, until their feet are firm-

    ly planted on the ground.

    Some children are happy

    receiving this scholarly, world-ly advice for their own benefit.

    Yet others reject it completely

    in fear of failure, fear of havingto share the glory or living up

    to or exceeding their parents

    expectations, or some other

    reason which still is a mystery

    to me. Its a tightrope walk at

    times, the children ultimately

    in control with the final word,

    as it is their life to live and to

    reap whatever they can sow.

    If I had a time machine

    with only one journey

    allowed, I would pass it to myson to take a trip into his

    future to see the results of the

    decisions he is making now,

    the decisions he didnt make,

    and the consequences of both!

    If the future you showed

    up at your door today to tell

    you what you can look forward

    to, to give you reliable advice

    for the present that when

    implemented would have a

    dramatic impact on yourfuture life, would you recog-

    nize yourself at the door?

    Would you embrace yourself?Would you be interested in the

    information and would you lis-

    ten and implement the advice?

    N

    ew research shows

    that a healthy diet

    and lifestyle cangreatly reduce the risk of oral

    cancer.

    Tobacco usage and alco-

    hol consumption adversely

    impact the risk of oral can-

    cer. When smoking or drink-

    ing, the mouth area is sub-

    jected to many carcinogens,

    or cancer-producing chemi-

    cals. These carcinogens cause

    our DNA to change or

    mutate. These mutations aremultiplied when the body is

    chronically exposed to tobac-

    co and alcohol.

    To reduce the risks of oral

    cancer, many studies suggest

    never using tobacco, and

    drinking alcohol in modera-

    tion. Foods that contain

    antioxidants are also key in

    reducing risks. Also, its

    important to avoid the human

    papilloma virus, which has

    been known to cause cancer.

    In my office, an oral can-cer screening or test is rou-

    tinely performed during your

    dental exam.

    facilities suit some, getting

    home care and living inde-

    pendently is the best option

    for some of our senior loved

    ones. Here are ways to help

    them remain independent:

    1. Purchase a cell phone for

    your elderly family member. A

    cell phone allows them to

    keep in touch with family

    members and maintain a net-

    work of friends. They can also

    use their phone to schedule

    their own appointments and

    make their own arrangements,

    which allows them to feel

    autonomous.

    2. Purchase a home alert sys-

    tem. Devices like Life Alert

    are one way that an elderly

    family member can remain

    living in his or her own home

    with confidence. The elderly

    person wears a necklace while

    in the home. If they need

    assistance of any kind, theyjust have to push the button

    on the necklace and a live

    person on the other end can

    obtain the necessary services.

    3. Allow them to cook their

    own meals. Take them to the

    grocery store once a week to

    pick out items they would like

    to cook for themselves.

    Whether its breakfast, lunch

    or dinner, allow them the

    independence to select, pre-

    pare and feed themselves their

    favorite meals.

    4. Allow them to arrange

    their transportation. Many

    cities have local transporta-

    tion for the elderly. These

    transportation companies will

    pick them up and take themto their doctor appointments

    and errands. Allowing them

    to call and arrange their own

    pickup gives the elderly the

    independence to get around

    to perform their own sched-

    uled tasks.

    5. Install safety equipment.

    Putting hand rails in bath-

    rooms at the tub and toilet

    areas allows the elderly to use

    the bathroom safely on their

    own. The help of a caregiver

    or family member may not

    even be needed if the proper

    safety and guide rails are pro-vided for them to help them-

    selves.

    his is a good time of

    year to review your

    investments. If youre

    not meeting your financial

    goals for the year, theres still

    time to make changes. Make

    sure your portfolio is appropri-

    ately balanced among stocks,

    bonds and other investments.

    Keep it well diversified, with-

    out too much at risk in any

    one sector. And youll want to

    weed out investments with

    poor future prospects.

    As you identify invest-

    ments to buy and sell, keep

    the following tax implications

    in mind:

    When you sell assets,

    youll have a capital gain or

    loss. Remember that capital

    gains on assets held for more

    than 12 months enjoy lower

    tax rates. For shorter holding

    periods, youll pay tax at ordi-

    nary income rates.

    Dont forget to include

    any reinvested dividends

    when you calculate your cost

    basis for mutual fund shares.

    You can use capital losses

    to offset capital gains. Excess

    capital losses can even offset a

    limited amount of ordinary

    income.

    Watch out for the wash

    sale rule. If you sell stock and

    then reacquire substantially

    identical securities within 30

    days of a sale, you cant deduct

    a loss from the sale.

    The law passed in

    January of this year sets the

    tax rate on long-term capital

    gains and qualified dividends

    at 20 percent for taxpayers in

    the 39.6 percent ordinary

    income bracket. Taxpayers in

    the two lowest ordinary

    income rates (10 and 15 per-

    cent) will have a 0 percent

    rate on capital gains and divi-

    dends. Those in all other

    brackets will continue to have

    a 15 percent rate on dividends

    and long-term capital gains.

    Changing investments

    within a tax-sheltered retire-

    ment account doesnt have

    any immediate tax conse-

    quences. Youll pay tax at

    ordinary income rates when

    you take distributions.

    Remember, taxes should-

    nt drive your investment

    decisions, but they are an

    important factor to consider.

    Everything comes at a

    price, and the relentless

    march of technology is

    no exception. Some things,

    like the erosion of privacy, are

    readily apparent, while other

    tolls technology exacts are not

    so transparent.

    We asked technology to

    give us time. Instead, it gave

    us speed. Unfortunately, we

    confused the two and as a

    result we find ourselves left

    with a feeling of forever run-

    ning behind. Technology cre-

    ates a false sense of urgency

    that traps us in the present

    at the expense of the future!

    Technology convinces us

    that the pursuit of knowledge

    is paramount because it con-

    tinually moves the bar.

    Information expands far faster

    than we can assimilate it! By

    focusing exclusively on

    knowledge, we ignore the pur-

    suit of wisdom, the practical

    means by which we can

    employ it.

    Oddly content in our

    belief that our knowledge is

    supreme, we tend to become

    arrogant. But heres the catch:

    Every other person in the

    world possesses insight that is

    unique to them. If we covet

    that, each and every one of

    our fellow beings would

    become invaluable and irre-

    placeable. That is why wisdom

    is the true path to knowledge,

    not the other way around.

    Being a responsible pet

    owner requires a sub-

    stantial commitment.

    For dog owners, ensuring a dog

    is well fed and exercised, and

    receives routine medical care

    are essential elements of

    responsible pet ownership.

    People new to dog ownership

    may not realize the importance

    of early socialization and train-

    ing of their new pet.

    The American Veterinary

    Society of Animal Behavior

    has outlined the importance of

    early puppy socialization,

    preferably before a puppy

    reaches 12 to 16 weeks of age.

    This is a period of important

    critical development, which

    can help the animal grow into a

    well-adjusted pet.

    New pet parents are

    encouraged to enroll in a train-

    ing class for their puppies or, at

    the very least, to expose their

    puppies to other animals and

    people at an early age. The

    experience not only helps own-

    ers develop a strong bond with

    their pets but also enforces pos-

    itive behavior in a fun atmos-

    phere. If unsocialized, dogs may

    become aggressive or extremely

    off-put by other animals and

    people. Such dogs run a greater

    risk of being surrendered to a

    shelter.

    Although puppies may

    not have completed their

    entire run of immunizations at

    an early age, many vets agree

    that early socialization with

    other animals outweighs the

    risk of contracting an illness.

    The benefits of this socializa-

    tion include proper interaction

    with people, off-leash play to

    learn boundaries and bite inhi-

    bition with other puppies.

    Young pups are eager

    sponges, ready to absorb infor-

    mation from their environment

    and families. Early stimulation

    in a fun and supportive manner

    will help prevent some poten-

    tial behavioral problems that

    can become more difficult to

    correct as a puppy grows into

    adulthood. Although it is possi-

    ble to teach an old dog new

    tricks, its much easier to teach

    dogs when they are still eager

    puppies willing to learn.

    Barking, biting, digging

    and jumping are all

    behaviors puppies are

    likely to engage in. It is

    key for pet owners to dis-

    courage these behaviors

    as early as possible

    because it can lead to

    a strained relationship

    between pet parent and animal

    if the dog continues to engage

    in these acts into adolescence.

    Very often dogs are chastised or

    surrendered simply because

    they were never taught the

    proper way to behave.

    It is not necessary to

    enroll in a puppy training class

    if owners feel confident in their

    abilities to train the dog on

    their own. Working with the

    pet each and every day for a

    small amount of time will grad-

    ually drive home the necessary

    lessons. Heaping a large

    amount of praise on a job well

    done will positively reinforce

    desired actions. If a puppy

    training class is not part of a

    dogs upbringing, at-home

    training and visits to a dog park

    or puppy daycare can provide

    the socialization the dog needs.

    Puppies are willing and

    able to learn a great deal of

    behaviors at an early age.

    Responsible pet owners must

    set the course for discipline,

    socialization and training that

    can foster a long and healthy

    relationship.

    Getting braces is a

    rite of passage for

    many children. The

    American Association of

    Orthodontics estimates more

    than 3.5 million children

    ages 8 to 17 wear braces in a

    given year. While some chil-

    dren cannot wait to get

    braces and correct problems

    with crooked teeth, others

    are a bit nervous about the

    experience. When braces are

    in place, it helps to know the

    dos and donts of maintain-

    ing braces, including which

    foods can be comfortably

    eaten and which should be

    avoided.

    Braces use a series of

    brackets and wires to treat

    malocclusion, a Latin term

    that translates to bad bite.

    The wires used today are

    smaller and stronger than

    they used to be, which has

    helped to shorten the length

    of time that braces may need

    to be worn. There also are

    braces that can be worn

    behind the teeth or are the

    same color as the teeth, min-

    imizing the appearance of the

    braces.

    Many brackets are

    cemented to the teeth with

    an impermanent product

    that is designed to be durable

    while the braces are worn.

    When the braces need to be

    removed, the cement is

    scraped off, leaving no dam-

    age to the teeth. But it does-

    nt take much force to

    remove these brackets from

    the teeth, necessitating

    repairs.

    Certain foods can break

    brackets or bend wires, while

    others can get stuck in rubber

    bands used when wearing

    braces. Monitoring diet can

    prolong the life of the braces

    and shorten the amount of

    time they need to be worn.

    Hard foods, such as nuts,

    ice cubes, apples, and

    crunchy crusts, can damage

    the fragile components of the

    braces. Sticky foods, such as

    caramel, gummy candies,

    gum, and taffy, can pull apart

    braces or get wrapped around

    the hardware, making for a

    difficult time cleaning the

    teeth. Similarly, sweet foods,

    including some fruits that are

    high in sugar, can feed bacte-

    ria on the teeth. Braces make

    it more difficult to clean the

    teeth effectively, so consum-

    ing excessive amounts of

    sugar may result in decay.

    Small foods also can

    become lodged in between

    brackets and wires. When

    such foods are not removed,

    they can promote bacteria

    growth and cavities.

    It is important to main-

    tain scheduled professional

    dental cleanings when you

    are wearing braces. Regular

    brushing and using small

    devices designed to get into

    the crevices created by the

    braces can help keep teeth

    clean.

    When eating, cut foods

    into bite-sized pieces to

    avoid having to bite down

    into them. Many foods, such

    as chicken wings, ribs or corn

    on the cob, can be enjoyed

    by those wearing braces so

    long as they are eaten with a

    fork. Apples also can be

    sliced and eaten.

    Here are the foods that

    you may want to avoid for

    the duration of your time

    wearing braces. hard pizza

    crust, popcorn, bagels, hard

    candies, chips and other

    crunchy snacks, peanut brit-

    tle, nuts, raw carrots, pret-

    zels, candy, gum, beef jerky,

    hard tacos, soda and sugary

    soft drinks

    Some people wear

    braces for a few months,

    while others must wear them

    for a few years. Keeping teeth

    clean and avoiding problem

    foods promotes dental health

    and makes maintenance less

    difficult.

    Every weekend of the last

    few months you havespent mowing, weed-

    ing, edging, and trimming

    your lawn so that it will look

    its best. In order to ensure

    your lawn makes a complete

    recovery after winter hiberna-tion, you may want to spend

    the fall taking steps to help

    your lawn survive the winter

    months ahead.

    Winterizing a lawn varies

    depending on where you liveand how harsh a typical win-

    ter is. There are certain key

    tasks to complete before you

    can rest for the winter season.

    Remove fallen leaves and

    debris. Leaf cleanup is amongthe tasks homeowners dread

    the most. Raking leaves can

    be arduous, but it is well worth

    the effort. Fallen leaves can

    smother the grass and lead to

    dead spots and decay next sea-son. Wait until the majority of

    the leaves have fallen from

    the trees before you begin to

    rake; otherwise, you could

    find yourself repeating the

    process throughout the fall.Mulched leaves can be added

    in small amounts to garden

    beds to provide rich organic

    material for next years crop of

    flowers.Be sure to pick up any

    twigs and other debris as well.

    Additional debris can become

    up trapped under snow and

    hinder grass growth when

    spring arrives.

    Cut your lawn short. Unless

    the season is unseasonably wet

    and warm, your lawn should-

    nt grow too much in October

    and November. Continue tocut your lawn until there is no

    visible growth for about two

    weeks. It pays to give it a short

    cut before frost arrives so that

    long piles of dead grass will

    not smother any new growth

    in the spring. Also, long grass

    tends to bend down upon

    itself, trapping moisture that

    can lead to fungal diseases like

    snow mold.Aerate the lawn. Soil can be

    compacted over time, espe-

    cially in yards that see heavy

    foot traffic. You can rent an

    aerator from a lawn supply

    store so that water and fertiliz-

    er can reach the soil.

    Fertilize. Now is the time to

    give the lawn fresh food to

    overwinter and also replenish

    the strength of the root sys-tem. All summer long the

    lawn has been depleting the

    soil of nutrition, but autumn

    presents a great opportunity

    to strengthen those roots.

    advantage of the cooler

    weather and slow-growing

    grass to re-edge around flower

    beds. Even though the grass

    above the surface of the soil

    will stop growing, the roots

    will remain viable and thelawn will still be sending out

    rhizomes and tillers to pro-

    duce new grass blades in the

    have less work to do in

    If there are any over-

    hanging tree branches

    or shrubbery blocking

    sunlight from reaching

    the lawn, cut back these

    areas once the foliage

    has thinned. Take

    Seed bare patches. Scour the

    lawn for bare patches and put

    down some seed in theseareas. The cooler weather will

    enable the seeds to germinate

    without having to compete

    with weed growth.

    Once you have prepared

    your lawn for the winter you

    can bring in any lawn tools

    that need repair and have

    them set and packed away for

    the spring.

    With the autumn on

    the horizon, food-ies are starting to

    think about the bevy of fresh

    foods that seem to symbolize

    the season. From squash to

    apples to aromatic seasonings,

    foods cooked in the fall are

    awash in flavor.

    Autumn can be the per-

    fect time to handpick foods

    from a nearby farmers market

    or orchard. Pumpkin picking

    is a favorite this time of year,

    and those impressive orangespheres are more than just

    jack-o-lanterns. Freshly

    picked pumpkins can be used

    to make muffins, breads and,

    of course, the ubiquitous

    pumpkin pie.

    The following recipe for

    Ultimate Pumpkin Pie with

    Rum Whipped Cream from

    Ina Gartens Barefoot

    Contessa Foolproof (Clarkson

    Potter) is a spirit-infused take

    on the classic pumpkin pierecipe. The recipe can be pre-

    pared with fresh pumpkin

    puree or the canned variety

    found at stores.

    Ultimate Pumpkin Pie with

    Rum Whipped Cream

    Serves 8 to 10

    1 unbaked Perfect Pie Crust

    (recipe follows)

    Dried beans for blind baking

    Filling:

    1 15-ounce can pumpkin

    puree (not pie filling)1/2 cup light brown sugar,

    lightly packed

    1/4 cup granulated sugar

    1/2 teaspoon ground

    cinnamon

    1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

    1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

    2 teaspoons grated orange

    zest

    3 extra-large eggs, lightly

    beaten

    1 cup heavy cream1/2 cup whole milk

    2 tablespoons dark rum,

    such as Mount Gay

    Rum Whipped Cream

    (recipe follows)

    Preheat the oven to 425

    F. Line an 11-inch pie pan

    with the unbaked pie crust

    and place it on a sheet pan.

    Line the crust with parchment

    paper. Fill the paper three-

    quarters full with the beans

    and bake the crust for 15 min-utes, until the edges start to

    brown. Remove the beans and

    paper (save the beans for

    another time), prick the crust

    all over with the tines of a

    fork, and bake for another 5

    minutes.

    Reduce the oven temper-

    ature to 350 F. Meanwhile, in

    a large bowl, whisk together

    12 tablespoons

    (11/2 sticks) very

    cup) ice water

    while you prepare the flour

    mixture. Place the flour,

    salt, and sugar in the bowlof a food processor fitted

    with a steel blade and pulse

    a few times to mix. Add

    the butter and shortening.

    Pulse 8 to 12 times, until

    the butter is the size of

    peas. With the machine

    running, pour the ice water

    down the feed tube and

    dough begins to form a ball.

    Dump out on a floured board

    and roll into a ball. Wrap in

    plastic wrap and refrigerate

    for 30 minutes.

    Cut the dough in half.Roll each piece on a well-

    floured board into a circle,

    rolling from the center to

    the edge, turning and

    flouring the dough to make

    sure it doesnt stick to the

    board. Fold the dough in

    half, place in a pie pan, and

    unfold to fit the pan.

    Leasing commercial space

    is a fact of life for manybusiness owners. The

    expense of commercial leasing

    is considerable, but cost is not

    the only factor to consider

    when leasing a commercial

    space. The following are a few

    tips for business owners whennegotiating their commercial

    space lease.

    Enlist some professional

    help. While seasoned business

    owners may be able to negoti-

    ate their commercial lease on

    their own, new business own-ers often benefit from the

    services of real estate brokers

    and real estate lawyers. Real

    estate lawyers can negotiate

    your lease, explaining key

    terms and conditions that may

    prove confusing to first-timebusiness owners. Real estate

    brokers can help you find the

    right location, and many real

    estate brokers have a long

    working history with land-

    lords. Such relationships can

    make the negotiating process

    easier, and they also can bene-

    fit business owners looking for

    the best possible location for

    their businesses. Real estate

    brokers often get first choiceat the most desirable loca-

    tions, so teaming up with an

    established real estate broker

    can increase your chances of

    landing a desirable property.

    Emphasize affordable renew-

    al options. The length of com-

    mercial leases favored by small

    businesses is often similar to

    the length of a lease on a pri-

    vate residence. Though the

    language might be more com-plex than that of a private res-

    idence lease, the length of a

    commercial lease agreement istypically one to two years. But

    business owners must be dili-

    gent regarding renewal

    options and the cost of such

    renewals. Come the end of

    your lease terms, you dont

    want to be met with a consid-

    erable and unexpected hike in

    rent just as your business is

    starting to take off. Work to

    get the most favorable renew-

    al options possible so more ofyour operating budget can go

    into your products and not

    toward your lease.

    Pay attention to extra fees.

    Many commercial leases

    include fees in addition to the

    monthly rent. Maintenance

    fees are common, and there

    may even be a separate set of

    maintenance fees when shar-

    ing commercial space. When

    negotiating your lease, ask tosee a list of the costs and fees

    current tenants typically incur

    each month. When discussingmaintenance fees, confirm

    who must pay for less routine

    maintenance, such as HVAC

    or plumbing repairs, and be

    sure to get such information

    included in the lease.

    When discussing such

    fees, inquire about utility costs

    as well. Utilities are often the

    responsibility of the tenant,

    but it still behooves business

    owners to confirm who will bepaying the monthly utilities.

    Negotiate an exclusivity

    clause. Business owners often

    dont want their competitors

    to move in across the street,

    and they certainly dont want

    them to move into the same

    building. Protect your business

    from such a development by

    negotiating an exclusivity

    clause into your lease. Such

    clauses prevent landlords from
