Words cannot express the sorrow and sadness that fill our hearts every day. The joy we feel knowing that you are in the House of The Lord keeps us going. If there is a newspaper up in Heaven, we know you are the Editor, and are filling its pages with happy news. In times of happiness and tribulation, know that we are always thinking about you and remember the things you have said and done to keep us motivated. Give us the strength to keep your dream alive, and to build on what we have made. We miss your presence constantly as we start each day, continuing to bring your dream to life. Continue to watch over us and keep us moving forward, as we try every day to make you proud. Missing someone gets easier every day, because even though it is one day farther from the last time we saw each other, it is one day closer to the next time we will meet. Keep on Drummin Gina, and we will see you again.
The serene setting is the ideal place for the PSBSA, with ample parking and a clubhouse built in 2008, which had formerly been a pavilion. As the founding fathers envisioned, the purpose of the Club is to inform, educate and promote the safe, proper, and lawful use of firearms and their related activities. At present, with a membership of approximately two hundred, the Club is active in youth activities and shows a strong sense of community involvement. The Club, a member of the American Trapshooting Association (ATA), has summer and winter
youth to learn complete safety of firearms and how to use them, said

Older Adults at High Risk for Flu, a Leading Cause of Hospitalization and Even Death for Those 65 and Over
(NAPSI)Over the next decade, millions of baby boomers will begin their well-earned transition into retirement. This unique stage in life allows retirees time to do more of the things they love like enjoy time with friends and family, but it also comes with the added responsibility of keeping a closer eye on health to maintain an active lifestyle. It may then come as a surprise to learn that despite the fact that older adults are over 16 times more likely to be hospitalized due to the flu and its related complications than younger adults, nearly 30 percent of Americans age 65 and older remained unvaccinated this past flu season. As people age, the immune system weakens, which puts adults 65 and older at increased risk for flu. In fact, each year in the United States, more than nine out of 10 flu-related deaths and six out of 10 flu-related hospitalizations occur in adults 65 and older. Annual flu vaccination is the safest and most effective way to protect against the flu each season. To help increase awareness about the dangers flu poses to older adults, the National Council on Aging (NCOA) has launched the Flu + You campaign. This educational program aims to educate older Americans, their caregivers, and family members about the seriousness of influenza in older adults, the importance of annual vaccination, and the available vaccine options for adults 65 and older. A recent survey of middle-age and older adults found that almost 90 percent would seek vaccination after getting information from their doctor and two-thirds also noted that friends and family could influence their vaccination decision. To help bring a health providers perspective, Dr. Carolyn B. Bridges, Associate Director for Adult Immunizations at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has joined the Flu + You campaign to emphasize the importance of annual vaccination for older adults. A flu vaccine is recommended for everyone 6 months of age and older, said Dr. Bridges. Its critical for adults 65 and older to get vaccinated because they are at greatest risk for developing severe complications of influenza when they get infected. Adults in this age group have two available optionsthe traditional flu shot and a higher dose flu shot, which is designed to address the decline of the immune system with age. Both of these vaccines are covered by Medicare. The higher dose shot triggers the body to produce more antibodies against the flu virus than would be produced by the traditional shot. Antibodies are the soldiers of the immune system that help respond and protect against infection. No matter how healthy or youthful you may feel or appear, older adults are highly susceptible to the flu, said Richard Birkel, PhD, MPA, acting senior vice president of Healthy Aging and director of NCOAs SelfManagement Alliance, while stressing the specific danger the flu poses to older adults. NCOA hopes that through education, older adults will realize how serious the flu is and make vaccination a priority. Speak with your health care provider about the dangers of the flu, the benefits of vaccination, and the best vaccine option to meet your needs. And remember, getting your flu vaccination not only helps protect you, but helps to prevent the spread of the flu to friends and family. To learn more about these important health messages, please visit www.NCOA.org/Flu where youll find access to more information on the Flu + You campaign, as well as educational materials available for download. Flu + You is a program of the National Council on Aging in collaboration with Sanofi Pasteur.

Hello fellow readers, Produce is plentiful and I hope you are visiting local stands to savor the bounty and support our farmers. I have been stocking up at Races Farm and am reminded of the behavior of shoppers experienced while working at a roadside stand as a teen. Overall I think people have good intentions and do not mean to abuse veggies but lets talk about produce etiquette. While searching for ripe produce people tend to squeeze to check softness which results in a bruise. They pick tomatoes up and rather than gently returning them to their spot they often drop them causing the stack to shift. If you hear something moving its bruising, Doug Race said. I am astonished that customers husk corn halfway to look
(NewsUSA) - Do you have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep through the night? The importance of a good night's sleep is well known. According to the National Sleep Foundation, adequate sleep has been associated with a better mood, better health and better job performance. It's important to address factors that might interfere with a good night's sleep. Light is one of these factors. The body responds to light as a cue to stay awake, so sleeping in a dark, quiet room can help you fall asleep, stay asleep and wake up refreshed. A full night's sleep is especially important for children. Studies suggest that most children need about nine hours of sleep each night and that children who get enough sleep behave better and perform better in school than those who are chronically sleepdeprived. Additional research has shown that children who have sleep problems are at greater risk for depression and anxiety later in life, and they are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol
as teens and adults. The Cellular SlumberShade, the official window shade product of the National Sleep Foundation, can help improve sleep by keeping excess light out of a room. The SlumberShade features unique sidetracks that attach magnetically to a window frame for easy installation. When it's time to clean the windows, the sidetracks are easy to remove. These sidetracks block the gaps of light that standard cellular shades let in. They are UV stable, available in several colors to match your window trim. In addition, all SlumberShades have a specialized seal along the top for complete blockage of exterior light.

advance. Enter these dates into your planner as soon as they are provided. 2. Enter all homework assignments into your planner. It is easy to forget daily assignments, which can seriously affect your
grade. Get in the habit of entering homework into your planner as soon as it is announced. 3. Schedule chapter reading. Reading small sections of the chapter on a daily basis can be more effective than cramming the night
before an exam. Plan to read a few pages each day, and by the end of the week you will have read the entire chapter. 4. Stick to your schedule. Every evening you should look over your schedule for the upcoming day. Make sure that you have met all of your responsibilities. 5. Schedule fun time.
Just as it is important to stick to your academic schedule, it is equally important to stick to your fun schedule. Allow yourself at least one day per week with-
out schoolwork. Remember, a little preparation can go a long way and keeping a planner is the first step toward becoming an excellent student.

Community involvement included a fund raising event held last year to benefit the Bangor Police Departments K-9 Unit. We are looking forward to working with the Bangor Police in the future, as well. This past July, the Association sponsored its first Youth Day and it was a success. NRA certified instructors were at the Club to teach the kids safe handling of firearms. Twenty five kids came with their parents and/or guardians to learn trapshooting and they enjoyed lunch, compliments of the Association. We also sponsor the Roseto Rod and Gun Clubs Youth Fishing Contest. We donate a palomino trout and a $50. cash prize to the person who catches it. John DePalma Jr., a life member and past president, introduced activities for Boy Scouts to the Club. Camping and shotgun merit badges were earned at the club and the Scout leaders are very appreciative of the consideration the Scouts were given. When they came to the Club, both John and the Association donated
targets, shotgun shells and of course, the use of the facilities. The ideals and goals set forth by the founders a half century ago are still relevant in the minds of todays members. The hard work and dedication that were prominent at the foundation of Pocono Slate Belt Shooting Association still exist today. The members not only enjoy trapshooting but also the camaraderie that goes with it. For more information on the PSBSA and its activities, visit their website at psbsa.net or call 610-588-4970.
