About 1 ercent of adults in Time to Cash Those Old Savings Bonds? id you stash away savings bonds years ago o you know what they’re worth now While savings bonds used to be a great way to ut money aside for the future, with the different interest rates and dates of maturity, it’s all too easy to forget they’re there. aer bonds haven’t been issued for years they’ve all gone electronic. ut if you have aer bonds from long ago, there’s a good chance they’ve matured. A few things to consider -- aer bonds can add interest over and above the face value until they’re finally mature, which is usually 0 years. f your aer bonds are very old, they could be worth much more than face value. -- Cashing in the oldest bonds first is a mistake. hey might still be earning great interest. -- f you cash in a bond on the wrong day, you might be giving u si months of interest. -- Since you ay federal taes on the interest, cashing in too many at once can have ta consequences you might not eect. f you have aer savings bonds, your best bet is savingsbonds.com. t has loads of information to hel you get the most cash out of your bonds, lus a comlimentary bond calculator. f you set u an account, it will track your bonds and give you their current values. erhas its best feature is that it tells you the net time interest will be added. he last thing you want to do is cash in one right before the interest is osted.

(c) 2018 King Features Synd., Inc. We’ve had a lot of inquiries recently from folks asking why eole believe falsehoods about their health and how to rotect it, when actual facts are staring them squarely in the face. We think that’s imortant because it has such a rofound effect on individual lives, on overall ublic health and on the economic well-being of eole and the nation. irst, let’s look at two common misconcetions that an alarming number of folks seem to accet or advocate 1 accinations are hugely dangerous here is no such thing as climate change whether manmade or natural or both and it has no health reercussions. he chance of eeriencing a serious side effect from vaccination versus the benefit it rovides avoiding serious illness and death is 10,000 Clearly, getting a vaccination is like winning the lottery -- the benefits are enormous. efore the olio vaccine 1,000 cases of aralysis annually in the .S. Afterward o olio cases have originated in the .S. since 1. efore the ertussis vaccine rom 10 through 1, more than 1 million cases of ertussis whooing cough were reorted, with many deaths. After Cases have been reduced by 0 ercent deaths by ercent. ot getting vaccinated doesn’t just affect you, though eole who cannot be vaccinated for legitimate medical reasons, such as getting chemotheray that’s a lot of eole, can be at mortal risk for infection with flu, for eamle, if eole around them ski immuniation. And the economic cost of unvaccinated adults in the .S. is .1 billion a year, according to a 01 study out of the niversity of orth Carolina. he same kind of fact-suressing dynamic surrounds the subject of climate change whatever the cause. A ew survey showed that ercent of Americans do not believe that climate scientists rovide full and accurate information about the changing environment. ut ignoring the data will not revent floods and increasingly severe storms, rising tem- erature, fires or drought. he macts of Climate Change on uman ealth in the nited States A Scientific Assessment ut out in 01 by .S. lobal Change esearch rogram lobalChange.gov gives in-deth evidence for far-reaching • • • • • • the nited States rovide unaid care of some kind to another adult, according to a new ew esearch Center analysis of data from the ureau of abor Statistics. or more information about the andolh Area Caregiver Suort rou, call 0--1. he Community ealth eam at ifford is art of luerint for ealth, a stateled initiative designed to rovide coordinated health services that emhasie revention and wellness. he team’s care coordinators assist eole with identifying care issues and goals and with addressing challenges to accessing transortation, food, fuel, and housing assistance. or more information about the Community ealth eam, visit giffordhealthcare.orgservicecommunity-health-team. Riverbend Residential Care Home Earns Deficiency-Free Survey iverbend esidential Care ome C in Chelsea has earned deficiency-free surveys from the ermont eartment of icensing and rotection. We are leased to share the news of iverbend’s recent deficiency-free surveys and thank our team for their commitment to high-quality home like care for our residents, said owner Jennifer oyle. he survey results are made even more meaningful by the fact that, iverbend has maintained deficiency free status for 1 years. An unannounced, on-site survey was conducted on ovember 1, 01 by ermont’s ivision of icensing and rotection. Areas of insections include but are not limited to residents rights and contracts, medical record review and documentation, resident care, meals and dietary needs, resident interviews, staff training and erformance as well as the over all asects of the building, its cleanliness and care. he ivision of ire Safety also conducted an on-site ife Safety Code insection, and iverbend was found to be in substantial comliance with alicable ife Safety Code requirements. he ivision of icensing and rotection regulates longterm care homes and health care facilities for the dual ur- oses of rotecting the welfare and rights of residents and atients and assuring they receive the aroriate level and quality of care. iverbend esidential Care ome, owned and oerated by Jennifer and Amos oyle, is located in Chelsea village, just walking distance from the town center. t is licensed to rovide care to residents. esidents can be fairly indeendent needing varied levels of care from suervision to nursing home care. oyle attributes the facilities success to her dedicated high quality staff sharing, couldn’t do this without the hard work, dedication and suort from our staff esecially obbisue Chamney who co-manages iverbend. oyle went on to acknowledge the faithful suort of the close knit Chelsea community including the Chelsea ealth Center, the irst ranch Ambulance, Clara artin Center and her residents and their families. A Healthy View of Facts Can Make You Healthier health roblems, from mental illness to heart disease, asthma and heatstroke, caused by climate-change-related air ollution, increasing disease from ticks and mosquitoes, water-related illnesses and roblems with food roduction, distribution and safety. Why do folks disregard the evidence When eole choose to deny healthrelated facts, there’s usually an element of anger and fear involved. hat triggers chronic elevation of stress hormones -- cortisol, einehrine and noreinehrine -- that can damage blood vessels and arteries, increase blood ressure and raise the risk of heart attack and stroke. n addition, chronic stress affects the brain he mind’s center for logical thinking, the amygdala, gets overwhelmed, and irrational emotions can take over. We suggest that the imulse to ignore clear facts comes about when you feel there’s nothing you can do to imrove a situation or to make yourself healthier. ou give u the battle to attain a healthy weight, avoid or reverse ye diabetes, reduce your town’s carbon footrint, use less lastic -- you name it -- because it seems hoeless. ut it’s not ou can make a huge difference in your own health, in your community’s well-being and in the economic future of the .S.A. The best way to defuse fear and anger is to find the facts for yourself: -- ee in mind that coincidences are not correlations or causes. Just because a -year-old is diagnosed with autism after receiving vaccinations doesn’t mean they were the cause, any more than being diagnosed after eating brown rice would serve as evidence -- ake the time to look at studies and read articles from eerts. o to the source. on’t lay telehone with the facts. -- inally, remember that when you battle back against distrust and discouragement in yourself, you sto the chronic fight-or-flight resonse to a threat, whether real or erceived. hat hels restore clearer thought and revent disease.

SAMBEL’S! Book Your Holiday Parties and Other Special Occasions Sambel’s Catering 249-7758 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A project benefits from your organizational skills that get it up and running. Your success leaves a highly favorable impression. Don’t be surprised if you get some positive feedback soon. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Spend time on practical matters through the end of the week. Then begin shifting your focus to more-artistic pursuits. Resist being overly self-critical. Just allow yourself to feel free to create. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Restarting those creative projects you had set aside for a while will help provide a much-needed soothing balance to your hectic life. Besides, it will be like meeting old friends again. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A change in plans could make it tough to keep a commitment. But stay with it. You’ll get an A-plus for making the effort to do what’s right and not taking the easy way out by running off. LEO (July 23 to August 22) The Lion’s enthusiasm for a workplace policy review is admirable. But be sure you know who is really behind the resistance to change before pointing your finger at the wrong person. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) You can expect to have to do a lot of work through midweek. Devote the rest of the week to checking your holiday plans in case some need to be adjusted to accommodate changes. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Try to avoid signing on the dotted line in the early part of the week. You need time to study issues that weren’t fully explored. Later in the week might be more favorable for decision-making. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A new development could snarl travel schedules or other holiday-linked projects. Some flexibility might be called for to deal with the problems before they get too far out of hand. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Relatives seek your advice on a matter you’d rather not be involved in. If so, use that sage Sagittarian tact to decline the “offer,” so that no one’s feelings are needlessly hurt. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A shift in planning direction might help you speed up your progress toward achieving that long-planned goal. Trusted colleagues are ready to offer some valuable support. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) An unexpected demand for settlement of an old loan could create some pre-holiday anxiety. But you might not really owe it. Check your records thoroughly before remitting payment. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) It’s a good time to get into the social swim and enjoy some well-earned fun and games with those closest to you before you have to resume more serious activities next week. BORN THIS WEEK: Your ability to sense the needs of others makes you a wise counselor for those seeking help with their problems. (c) 2018 King Features Synd., Inc.
