On amore upbeat note,we plant gardens, get bufffor bathing suit season(there’s still time!) and seethe kids through the numer-ous end-of-school-year ac-tivities – all the while continuing to tend to ourown health and look after loved ones, especiallyour precious older folks.

Editor’s note

Specialty publications editor

It’s probably easierthan you think – andmost of the ingredientsare most likely alreadyin your house, or can befound with a trip to thegrocery and health foodstores.

According to Greenli-ving.com, the key ingre-dients to many home-made recipes are bakingsoda, washing soda (Bo-rax) lemon juice, vine-gar, olive oil, coarse salt,cornstarch and othernatural oils like grape-fruit seed oil.

Baking soda is thesuperman of the list,with cleaning power thatgoes far beyond its usual

role as a deodorizer thatyou stick in the back ofthe fridge.

It works great as anon-abrasive scouringagent on ovens, bath-tubs, sinks and counter-tops.

In the laundry room,it can be a big help ingetting rid of odors onclothing. Add one-halfcup to every load, alongwith detergents. Sprin-kle baking soda on thecarpet before youvacuum to get rid ofodors.

The other “soda” iswashing soda, which is astrong cleaner that issafer than other sol-

vents, but you shouldstill wear gloves whileusing it. Washing sodacuts grease, neutralizesodors and gets thingslike lipstick stains out ofclothing.

Lemon juice, with itsnatural acid, dissolvesdirt and buildup onwood, as well as thetarnish on silver.

White vinegar is agood substitute for lem-on juice and the smellwill go away as the vine-gar dries.

For disinfecting, usegrapefruit seed extractand essential oils such as

Public polls continueto reinforce a messagethat Willis Music is sopassionate about – thevast majority of Amer-icans believe musicshould be a part of everychild’s education. This iswhy Kevin Cranley, Wil-lis Music Company presi-dent and owner, recentlyvisited with federal elect-ed officials in our na-tion’s capital. The yearlyevent is attended by con-cerned members of theNational Association ofMusic Merchants(NAMM). The 2012 Ad-vocacy Fly-In for MusicEducation concentratedon NAMM’s core ad-vocacy theme of musiceducation and legislationthat advances access to

music education for allchildren.

“Research continuesto show that students whoare involved in music dobetter in all other sub-jects in school,” saidCranley, who is currentlyserving voluntarily as thechairman of NAMM.

Having music pro-grams as a core curricu-lum in schools is impor-tant, explained Cranley.

“Students in high-quality school musiceducation programsscore higher on standard-ized tests compared tostudents in schools withdeficient music educa-tion programs,” he said.

This is Cranley’s sixthyear going to Washing-ton, D.C., for the NAMM

Fly-In.“The teams from

NAMM do a day of train-ing on current issues inmusic education and thenspend the next day meet-ing with Senators to cre-ate dialogue, maintainrelationships and makepositive changes,” heexplained.

Even though Cranleymet with elected officialsat the NAMM Fly-In, hebelieves that one of thebest ways to make a dif-ference is right here athome.

“I encourage anyonewho is passionate aboutthis to meet with schoolband directors to startwith grass-roots efforts,”he said. “It is very power-ful.”

Many men and wom-en suffer from unsightlytwisted and/or bulgingvaricose veins that areoften a source of socialembarrassment andphysical discomfort. Thegood news is that youdon’t have to suffer anylonger.

Cincinnati Cosmetic &Vein Specialists physi-cians are fellowship-trained InterventionalRadiologists that haveextensive experience in

using ultrasound to accu-rately identify venousinsufficiency that causesthe visible signs andsymptoms of varicoseveins. They differ fromother types of physicianswho treat varicose veinsin that they are speciallytrained to use image-guided minimally in-vasive procedures thatrequire little to no recov-ery time, cause littlepain, and can be done inthe office in about an

hour.Many vein clinics

offer a temporary fix tothe problem by injectingmedication into spiderveins or using a surfacelaser, treatments whichlast three to six months.The great thing aboutchoosing treatment atthe Cincinnati Cosmetic& Vein Specialists centeris that you receive acomprehensive exam toidentify the source ofyour spider veins anddetermine the best long-term treatment plan.

Often, the deeperissue that causes thevisible symptoms can betreated with a minimallyinvasive techniquecalled Endovenous Laser

Ablation, or EVLA/EVLT,a treatment usually cov-ered by medical insur-ance. The average pa-tient requires scleroth-erapy in addition to theEVLA/EVLT treatmentto remove all visibleveins. Therefore, to en-sure optimal results it isessential to choose atreatment provider suchas Cincinnati Cosmetic &Vein Specialists, who areskilled in both treat-ments. Additionally, theyare able to provide sur-face laser treatmentwhen necessary.

There are some whothink that the word “hos-pice” means that death isimminent. They equatehospice with the last daysor even hours of life, andthat can be a frighteningthought.

There are others whohave the perception thatreceiving hospice carehastens death. But thetruth is, that’s a miscon-ception.

Hospice services are,indeed, available to thosewho have a diagnosis ofsix months or less to live.But many hospice pa-tients live longer thanthat. In fact, several stud-ies have shown that thosereceiving hospice carelive longer and with anenhanced quality of life.

Why hospice and whatdoes it provide?

Hospice services haveexisted since the late1960s, when Dame CicelySaunders founded thefirst modern hospice in asuburb of London, Eng-land. Hospice came to theU.S. just a few years

later, and was publiclysupported in her break-through work, “On Deathand Dying,” by Dr. El-isabeth Kubler-Ross.Kubler-Ross testifiedbefore the U.S. Congressin support of hospiceservices, stating, “We livein a very particulardeath-denying society. Weisolate both the dying andthe old, and it serves apurpose. They are re-minders of our own mor-tality. We should not in-stitutionalize people. Weshould give families morehelp with home care andvisiting nurse, giving thefamilies and the patientsthe spiritual, emotionaland financial help in or-der to facilitate the finalcare at home.”

Although hospicebenefits became legisla-tively covered in the late1970s, hospice is far morethan a Medicare-fundedprogram. Hospice ser-vices incorporate the useof a multidisciplinaryteam that includes physi-cians, nurses, social

workers, chaplains andvolunteers. The emphasisis on pain control, pallia-tive care rather thancurative treatment. Andthe goal of hospice is toprovide an optimal qual-ity of life for whatevertime the person has re-maining, meeting theirneeds as a whole person –physically, emotionallyand spiritually.

The team not onlyworks with the patientbut also with loved ones,both family and friends,as appropriate. Helpingthe loved ones to supportthe patient through thejourney can make a tre-mendous difference.Family care continueswith a full year of be-reavement services fol-lowing the patient’sdeath, to help with griefand move loved onesforward.

Hospice provides theextra care and support toease the transition forpatient and family. Hos-pice is not about death –rather, it is about life.

Hospice services: It’s allabout quality of life

Between tests, papers,school trips, extracurric-ular performances andjobs, finding the energyfor spring’s after-schoolsports is often a chal-lenge.

While breakfast isoften tapped as the mostimportant meal of theday, lunch is arguablyjust as critical for all-dayperformance, says SueMoores, a registered

Fiberglass is17 times stronger thanconcrete, with a flexiblestrength of 54,000 psi,allowing up to 12 inchesof flexibility. That’smovement that destroysmost pools. These poolsalso carry a 35-yearlimited warranty againstleaking caused by struc-tural defects in the lami-nate.

Unlike concrete orvinyl liner pools, fiber-glass pools never have tobe drained for liner re-placement, acid wash-ing, remarciting, replas-tering or repainting.This can save the poolowner thousands of dol-lars.

Fiberglass pools havea smooth, nonporoussurface that doesn’tharbor resident algae,making cleaning 90 per-cent easier. In addition,they do not require largeamounts of chlorine,algaecides or other san-itizer, therefore, result-ing in up to 66 percentless cost in chemicals.

If you want to keepyour plans in place andyour spending on track,it’s important to be smartabout fuel consumption.

» Drive mindfully: Ifyou’re used to speeding

up fast and braking atthe last moment, youneed to reconsider howyou’re operating yourvehicle – those habitscan drain your gas tankand send you back to the

pump more often. In-stead, make a consciouseffort to accelerate andslow down gradually anduse cruise control tomaintain a constantspeed. When possible,avoid idling and makeplans for running er-rands, to cut down on thenumber of trips youtake.

» Choose wisely:You’re typically giventhree options at thepump, with a trio of gas-olines with differentoctane levels – and dif-ferent prices. One of thesimplest ways to cutcosts is to opt for thelowest octane fuel thatyou can use in your vehi-cle. Making this changecan save you hundredsof dollars per year, with-out sacrificing perfor-mance or gas mileage.
