Fire Prevention Week October 6-12

These area businesses recognize the importance of fire prevention and encourage residents to show their support of our local firemen by participating in

Operation EDITH Wednesday, October 10 ~ 8 p.m.

As firefighters drive through your neighborhood, turn on your exterior lights, signifying that everyone living in the household has reviewed what to do, and plans for escape, if there is a fire in the home.

Smoking & back pain If you smoke and also suffer from back pain, new research suggests quit-ting might help reduce pain. The study included over 5,300 people who were being treated for spinal problems. The patients in the study who never smoked reported the greatest reduc-tion in back pain with treatment. The smokers before or during the study reported less pain than those who con-tinued to smoke. In fact, those who kept up the habit had no real reduction in pain. Smoking may increase back pain because it increases inflamma-tion and may damage tissue by decreasing the flow of blood and nutrients.
