25Th Bradford Businessmen’s Chess League Off To Great Start The annual Bradford Businessmen’s Chess League kicked-off with a Quick Chess Tournament on Wednesday, No-vember 4 at School Street Elementary. Each player had a maximum of ten minutes to make all of their moves. In the JV section, Alex Mangold (a sixth grader at Fretz) defeated all his opponents to capture the fi rst place tro-phy. Second place honors were shared

among Cadence Panol (a sixth grader at St. Bernard’s), Tim Mulcahy (also a sixth grader at St. Bernard’s), and Jessica Wang (a fourth grader at St. Bernard’s). Ron Buchheit, tournament director for the junior varsity section, said “I’m very proud of all the stu-dents.” The varsity division championship was directed by Bob Ferguson with

what he termed “predictable results”. Mike Jones, reigning blitz champ, won all of his games to capture the fi rst place trophy, while Tamara and Rob Fergu-son tied for second overall.

Guest Columnist

“Keystone Turned Down” -by Bob Perry

In an arrogant and defi ant declaration, President Barrack Hussein Obama has put the issue of building the Keystone pipeline to rest for at least another 14 months. This has been one of the tools in the kit of issues politicians keep in abeyance only to surface whenever a distraction is needed or a polarization issue is needed to gain support, be it in general or on the specifi c subject. The only reason the President has been involved in this decision in the fi rst place has been that the pipeline crosses an international border. The timing is as a result of a deadline for all reports being received November 9th. If it had been me designing the pipeline I would have started the pipeline on the U.S. side of the border and have rail cars un-load the oil into a depot which inserts it into the pipeline leaving the defi ant Obama powerless. An addition to the pipeline crossing the border could be accomplished at another time. It has been seven long years that the pipeline has been an issue with the dec-laration by Obama on the being pushed to the side many times citing reasons, usually without merit, a decision has to be delayed. Of course, the announce-ment was made on a Friday which is the day it would guarantee the least ex-posure. The Congressional approval of the project became a reality in January 2015 after the Republicans gained con-trol of both the House of Representa-tives and the Senate. The vote count did result in insuffi cient support to override a veto by the President. The argument Obama had given numerous times was that the pipeline would be detrimental to the environment increasing climate change but last year the State Depart-ment released an 11 volume environ-mental review that the construction of the pipeline would NOT signifi cantly increase the rate of planet-warming pol-lution into the atmosphere. There was a list of reasons that Obama gave to de-lay a decision including a law suit in a Nebraska court (resolved), reviews by the Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Commerce, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Interior, and Department of Defense. The reason Obama used was a decla-ration it was not in the best interest of the nation but wait until a major train derailment happens with casualties and major property damage and the reason becomes mute. The rational on this decision by the

president is truly without using real-ity of what is happing and the actions being used increase the pollutants into the atmosphere by rail shipments along with adding $7 to $8 cost per barrel to the product over pipeline shipping to get it to the Gulf Coast. Who better to refi ne the oil than the refi neries in the Gulf Coast. Clearly the decision is a defi ant one with political overtones. The reality is however that with a Re-publican President elect the Keystone Pipeline project will fi nd new life and be approved.

We visited two fi fth grade classes at School Street Elementary School this week. The fi rst was Mrs. Baldwin’s class where she gives students fi fteen minutes of easy reading before their language arts session begins each day, when the stu-dents concentrate more fully on English fl uency. Students in Mrs. Cottillion’s class were busy at Reading Workshop where students are fi rst guided in their reading through the use of worksheets, followed by discussions among groups of students regarding the various books included in the workshop……...The Bradford Jour-nal Christmas Magic page begins with this edition (see page 11). Those busi-nesses found on this special, sponsor the idea and have shown special inter-est in encouraging area residents to visit local area shops, businesses, and eating establishments during the upcoming holi-day season. Included on the page are Lit-tle Fabric Garden, Timeless Treasures Gift Shop, Tasta Pizza of Bradford, and Tasta Pizza of Limestone, Bottorf Embroidery, Bradford Vet’s Club, How Ya Brewing, Cavallaro’s, John Williams European Pas-try Shop, Dexter’s Service & Collision, and Burns & Burns Associates, Inc. ….… Remember to sign up and/or show up for the 5K run/walk that will be held by the VFW Post #212 next Saturday, No-vember 21st. Proceeds will be donated to various veteran’s causes, concentrating on those affl ictions created by wars and ac-tions that have taken place over the last fi fteen years. The Post Commander, Ron Peters reminds our readers that the major problems today include high suicide rates, joblessness, and homelessness……..The Bradford Area High School will be the location for the “Fall Back in Love With Your Schools Open House to be held this Thursday, November 12th. Tours will be given of the High School, where there will be an introduction of the Brad-ford Area School District Foundation, the Bradford Area High School Alumni As-sociation, and where the Community In-volvement Committee chairperson will talk about the importance of involvement of the community in students’ educa-tion.……..We had an interesting experi-ence on our return trip from Levittown, PA (just north of Philadelphia) this last weekend. We plugged our home address into the GPS and were told “Can’t Find Route”. We tried different cell phones and different GPS Apps but the answer was the same, “Can’t Find Route.” This was made more mysterious by the fact that the GPS could fi nd routes into Buffalo, Jamestown, Coudersport, and Port Alle-gany. And while it was possible to fi nd our way back with a regular map and a few questions asked at a gas station (just like the old days), it was quite disconcerting to see the statement “Can’t Find Route” as if Bradford no longer existed.

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESMoving Soon? Keep Costs Under Control

-by Nathaniel Sillin Even if you’re only moving across town, it’s likely to cost more than you think. According to the latest fi gures from the American Moving and Storage Associa-tion, the average cost of an in-state pro-fessional move – based on 7,570 pounds of stuff – is $1,170. The average state-to-state move costs $5,630. How can you control moving expenses? Start making a master checklist to collect data and consider all costs and personal aspects of a potential move. You may even want to include a pro-and-con list that ad-dresses all conceivable economic and life-style outcomes – the real long-term costs and benefi ts of a move. After deciding whether the move is worthwhile, consider these subsequent steps: Seek solid advisors. Whether or not you plan to sell a home with a licensed real estate broker or agent, most are open to do a market valuation of your property and suggest repairs or improvements that could maximize a sale price. If you use a qualifi ed fi nancial planner or tax advisor, include that individual in early discus-sions on how a move might affect your fi nances. Also, if you’re selling property, fi nd an experienced real estate attorney to review broker and sale contracts. Get multiple estimates from movers. An early walk-through at your home or apart-ment by two to three U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT)-registered movers (http://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/hhg/search.asp) can provide a reality check on how much you’ll want to take and whether you can afford luxuries like packing or storage. Online resources can also help you evalu-ate those estimates. Watch for fraud. Recent news reports have highlighted a trend called “hostage load,” a practice whereby unscrupulous moving companies demand more money from customers before fi nishing a de-livery. Getting references from trusted friends and advisors is a good fi rst step to fi nding the right registered mover for your relocation. DOT has launched the “Pro-tect Your Move” (http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/protect-your-move) site that allows you to download a moving fraud protec-tion guide and offers tips on proper ways to investigate and hire a mover. Start downsizing – now. Getting early estimates from movers certainly helps you decide what you’re really willing to take. If there are valuables you think you can sell, consult professional appraisers and even general marketplace sources like eBay to get a realistic idea of value. Other-wise, consider garage sales and donations for the rest.

Insure what you’re moving. Whatever plans you’re making for home or renter’s coverage at the new destination, make sure you have proper coverage in place for the contents of your move. The Insurance In-formation Institute provides a useful guide (http://www.iii.org/article/getting-right-insurance-coverage-moving) to properly insuring the possessions you’re moving. Build a cash reserve for deposits, fees and incidentals. Keeping moving costs low can help you handle dozens of smaller and sometimes unexpected expenses that crop up immediately before, during and after a move. Budget for those hidden costs which can include deposits, fees and multiple trips to the discount store, home center or grocery. Bottom line: Thinking about moving?

Give yourself adequate time and resources to plan all aspects of this major life and money event.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDESubstance Abuse: What You Need To Know Now

(NAPSI)—If you or someone you care about is constantly late for work or school, misses deadlines, alienates family, feels isolated, helpless or ashamed and uses al-cohol, marijuana, opiates or other drugs—or misuses prescription medications—the problem may be a substance use disorder. If so, it’s important to recognize that treat-ment can help you recover your ability to live a full life. “Substance use disorder is not a moral fl aw or personal failing. It is a complex brain illness—commonly associated with genetic and biological factors—that inter-feres with a person’s day-to-day ability to function,” said Martin Rosenzweig, M.D., senior medical director, Behavioral Solu-tions at Optum. “Unfortunately, the stig-ma associated with having a substance use disorder often deters people from seeking treatment.” Young Adults at Risk According to Dr. Rosenzweig, teens and those in their early 20s are particular-ly vulnerable to struggling with substance use. That’s because their brains are still developing and they’re susceptible to peer pressure and partaking in risky behaviors. The rate of substance use disorder among people ages 18 to 25 is twice that of adults 26 and older, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Servic-es. More than one-third of the nation’s 35 million 18- to 25-year-olds reported binge drinking (generally defi ned as having fi ve or more drinks on the same occasion) and roughly one-fi fth reported using an illicit drug in the past month. Heroin use more than doubled among this age group in the past decade. Parents should be alert to potential warning signs of substance use disorder among their children. Suddenly declining grades, peer group changes, moodiness, secretiveness and withdrawal from activi-ties may be red fl ags. Treatment Effective treatment for substance use

American Institute for Cancer Research Q: Why are more cancer treatment centers offering yoga programs? A: Yoga is now among the recommended activities to improve quality of life during and after cancer treatment for some cancer survivors. Research is growing in support of physical benefi ts of exercise during and after cancer treatment, and while limited re-search shows such benefi ts with yoga, this probably varies with the amount and type of movement. According to clinical practice guidelines for breast cancer from the Society for Integrative Oncology, yoga has enough research supporting its use that it should be offered to breast cancer survivors seeking ways to decrease anxiety and improve mood. Although research suggests that improvements in sleep quality and quality of life may be small, it may also be helpful for these purposes to some breast cancer survivors.A randomized controlled trial published after release of these guidelines also indicates potential for yoga to decrease menopausal symptoms in women taking anti-estrogen medications and to reduce fatigue. Less research is available regarding yoga among survivors of other cancers, although some studies do report improvements in sleep and health-related quality of life. Other forms of “meditative movement,” such as tai chi and qigong, could potentially offer similar benefi ts. Studies suggest that meditation, group programs in stress reduc-tion, massage, music therapy, relaxation techniques and breathing exercises can also help address side effects faced by cancer survivors. Yoga includes a variety of forms; each may offer somewhat different benefi ts, and depending on physical limitations for an individual cancer survivor, some may be more appropriate than others. As with any plans for physical activity, cancer survivors may want to discuss interest in yoga, and potential for any recommended modifi cations, with their health care providers.

disorders includes:• Medication• Individual and group counseling• Intensive outpatient treatment• Treatment in a live-in health care facility supervised by trained staff• Community-based support programs. Treatment can occur in different set-tings. A person with a substance use disor-der may not necessarily need medication or all the treatment services listed above.

“It is important to develop a support system to help avoid a relapse and pro-mote long-term recovery,” said Dr. Rosen-zweig. “Natural support systems such as family, friends and peers in your commu-nity can be involved in your recovery ef-fort if you attend a local treatment clinic or center.” Learn More:For further facts about substance use disorders, visit www.op-tum.com/recovery.

(COUDERSPORT) – A veterans fi eld service offi cer with the American Legion will be available at Rep. Mar-tin Causer’s (R-Turtlepoint) offi ce in Coudersport from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 18.

(Bradford, PA) – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is noti-fying area drivers that posted weight limits on a Route 146 bridge in McK-ean County will be lowered, effective immediately. The bridge spans Potato Creek in Norwich Township, about one mile south of the village of Colegrove. In February of 2014, PennDOT posted the bridge for 35 tons for sin-gle vehicles and 40 tons for combina-tion vehicles. The weight restrictions have now been lowered to 23 tons for single vehicles and 27 tons for combi-nation vehicles. The Colegrove Bridge was built in 1931, is 61 feet long, and carries an average of over 200 vehicles daily. Reducing the weight traveling on the bridge will slow deterioration and preserve safety until repairs or replace-ment can occur.

Causer Hosts Vets Services Officer in Coudersportwe provide to them are a small token of recognition and appreciation for their service,” Causer said. “I hope area vet-erans will take advantage of this oppor-tunity for assistance.” Appointments are required and may be made by calling the offi ce at 814-274-9769. Veterans need not be a mem-ber of the American Legion to use the service.

Caregivers Face Own Health Risks When A Loved One Requires Constant CareBurden Often Falls On One Person, Causing Physical,

Emotional And Financial Strains

When a major illness or injury leaves someone in need of long-term, nearly round-the-clock care, it’s often up to a family member to step in and provide it.But research shows that the role of car-egiving can lead to its own health issues,

creating a signifi cant amount of stress and strain for the caregiver. “That stress can come in many forms,” says Marylee MacDonald (www.maryl-eemacdonald.org), a caregiver advocate and writer whose debut novel, “Montpel-ier Tomorrow,” was inspired in part by her experience helping care for her son-in-law. “There is emotional stress, physical stress and even fi nancial stress. Some-times there’s also additional stress from the guilt that caregivers feel when they fi nd themselves resenting the people they are caring for.” A recent study by the AARP Public Policy Institute and the National Alliance for Caregiving revealed that 22 percent of caregivers felt their health had gotten worse because of caregiving. “I don’t think that’s all that surprising,” MacDonald says. “If anything, it’s a won-der that the percentage isn’t higher.” Other fi ndings in the study included: • Nearly one in fi ve caregivers (19 per-cent) reported a high level of physical strain resulting from caregiving, while 38 percent considered their caregiving situ-ation to be emotionally stressful. Those percentages go up signifi cantly for car-egivers who provide 21 or more hours of care each week. • When people feel that had no choice in taking on their caregiving role, the stress becomes even greater. More than half – 53 percent – of those people report high lev-els of emotional stress. • Caring for a close relative causes more emotional stress than caring for another relative or a non-relative, with 45 percent of those caring for a spouse and 44 percent of those caring for a parent reporting emo-tional stress. That compares to 35 percent of those caring for another relative and 18 percent of those caring for a non-relative. • Finances sometimes take a hit, with 18 percent of caregivers saying they experi-enced fi nancial strain. Financial strain was more commonly reported by higher-hour caregivers. “What often happens these days is that most of the burden falls to one person, with maybe other family members step-ping in occasionally to provide respite care,” MacDonald says. “Some of that is because of the way society is today. We

don’t have three generations living within a few blocks of each other any more.” MacDonald’s involvement in caregiv-ing began when her son-in-law became af-fl icted with ALS and she put some of her own goals on hold to help her daughter. “My son-in-law’s illness threatened my daughter’s happiness and I wanted to pro-tect her,” MacDonald says. “I think that’s only natural. But it also made me aware of the strains that caregivers are under, and that in many cases there aren’t always good long-term institutional care options available. That puts the onus on family members.” Depending on the situation, caregivers become responsible for any number of duties. They help the care recipient get in and out of bed and chairs. They deal with incontinence or diapers, help the recipient to and from the toilet, and assist with bath-ing or showering. They also provide transportation, take care of grocery or other shopping, and do housework. “People have their own lives to live, and not everyone wants to work without pay 24/7, for months or years on end,” Mac-Donald says. “That’s another reason why one person often has to take on the bulk of the responsibility alone.” MacDonald says caregivers over-whelmed by the stress must make a con-certed effort to fi nd things that will bring happiness into their lives. “Finding your bliss ranks high on the to-do list,” she says. “It’s not easy, but you always should be on the lookout for things that surprise you and bring you joy.” About Marylee MacDonald: Marylee MacDonald (www.maryleemacdonald.org) is a caregiver advocate and a writer whose debut novel, “Montpelier Tomor-row,” focuses on a family caring for a loved one with ALS. The novel recently won Gold Medal for Drama from Readers’ Favorites. MacDonald’s fi ction has won the Barry Hannah Prize, the ALR Fic-tion Award, the Ron Rash Award, the Matt Clark Prize and two Illinois Arts Council Fellowships. Her works have appeared in the American Literary Review, Blue Moon Literary & Art Review, Briar Cliff Review, Broad River Review and others. She lives in Tempe, Ariz.

Keep Your Home Safe While You’re Away (NAPSI)—While you’re going over the river and through the woods to grand-mother’s house (or anywhere else), you don’t want to have to worry about what’s happening back at your own home. These 12 hints can help you have peace of mind when you’re out celebrating the season.

Smart Safety Moves 1. Tell trusted neighbors you’ll be away. Let them have your contact information, too. 2. Don’t share specifi c details about your departure on social media. 3. To give the impression that someone is home, use timers to have the lights and the TV go on and off at certain times. 4. Get motion-sensitive lights for out-side your house. 5. Consider having someone you know stay at your house while you’re gone. At least have someone come by every day you’re away to feed your pets, water your plants, take in the mail (unless you have the post offi ce hold it for you) and the newspapers, and see that garbage cans are brought out and back and that snow or leaves don’t pile up about your place. 6. Check the locks and latches on all the windows and doors before you go. 7. Keep trees and shrubs trimmed for visibility. All windows and doors should be visible, with little room for a person to duck down and hide. 8. Keep computers, TVs, collectibles and other valuables away from windows. 9. Watch your window blinds. If you normally leave some shades up, don’t pull them all down. That can be seen as a sign that you’re away. 10. Keep those home fi res from burn-ing. The United States Fire Adminis-tration points out that more house fi res happen in winter than any other time of the year. Before you go away, be sure you have at least one working smoke detector on each fl oor of the house. Un-plug your television, computer, toaster oven and similar appliances to protect them from power surges.

11. Stay in touch. You can get a sim-ple electrical device that continuously listens for your smoke and carbon mon-oxide detectors. If they sound, the Leeo Smart Alert calls you and sends push notifi cations wherever you may be. It’s easy to set up using the free Leeo smartphone app. You just plug it in and it works with an existing Wi-Fi net-work. You can even add contact informa-tion for friends, family members or neighbors so if your alarm goes off and you don’t answer immediately, it calls your preset emergency list until some-one does. 12. If you’ll be visiting friends or family, bring a great house gift, such as a way for your hosts to keep their home safer, too. Learn More: The Leeo Smart Alert is available at Best Buy and Lowe’s. For further facts, visit www.leeo.com or e-mail [email protected].

Bradford Journal Photo Fifth grader Alyssia Kloss 10 gives us a smile from her table in Mrs. Cottillion’s classroom at School Street Elementary School, November 9th. She is reading Al Capone Does My Shirts: A Tale From Alcatraz, and fi lling out a guided reading worksheet. She tells us she likes this pe-riod because she likes to read and it’s easy to answer the questions.
