5 ¢ENTS WORTH by Grant Nichols It’s A Matter Of Opinion...

Guest Columnist

“Biological Sex”-by Bob Perry

Title IX of the Educational Amend-ments was created and passed by Con-gress in 1972 and the thrust of the legislation was protection based on biological sex. Quoting Title IX: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from the par-ticipation in, be denied the benefi ts of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Fed-eral fi nancial assistance.” In a recent case the Fourth Circuit Court in Richmond, VA. has effective-ly created law by concluding that Title IX should be interpreted as prohibiting discrimination on the basis of gender identifi cation. The case was brought by a declared transgender biological fe-male that self-identifi es as a male. It is not easy to be empathetic with this young woman as the position she fi nds herself in if most foreign to most of us. The LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) individuals rightly re-serve human rights afforded to others but should they be afforded rights that confl ict with biological differences in all cases? This case is centered around restrooms and, as such, these facilities are not created for social accommodation, but for biological elimination based upon biological plumbing intended to protect privacy and safety of all. The majority opinion issued by the Court states that a public high school may not provide separate restrooms and locker rooms on the basis of biologi-cal sex. Interesting interpretation and the question is will it stand? As for the school in this case, a policy was creat-ed whereby only biological girls could use the girls room and only biological boys could use the boy’s room and any student could use any one of the newly created three single-occupancy bath-rooms. Should have been a winner, but not so. The ruling went on to declare that the transgender student is at risk if ‘irreparable harm’ if forced to use a sin-gle-occupancy bathroom. Judge Andre Davis is quoted forcing the student as described “is tantamount to humiliation and a continuing mark of difference.” The opinion seems to ignore the ma-jority of students that use the facilities. The judges in this case appear to be creating a greater problem than the one that exists. The solution resides with the young woman who identifi es as a male and the resolution is for there to be a sex change operation.

With this declaration that the judges have made has opened the door for further challenge with possibly the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) taking up the case. It gets tiresome when judg-es create law (especially SCOTUS) when they offer an opinion that, in my opinion, should cite the law(s) needing changes and charge the responsible leg-islative body to make the recommended changes. If the ruling is upheld upon further challenge, either by concurrence or by tie vote in SCOTUS, then Title IX is in jeopardy. The chance exists that any program that exists which receives Federal fi nancial assistance will be un-able to use biological sex (gender iden-tifi cation) for membership. All sports teams would not be able to exclude members of the opposite sex onto any sports teams. The very oppor-tunities created for female sports will become history as men would by nature dominate. Any sport would only need to recruit unisex teams like basketball and softball with open competition not based on biological identifi cation. It would be sad for such a thing to hap-pen.

Students from two more classrooms at the School Street Elementary School were the subjects for most the photos in this issue. Third grade students in Mrs. Tanner’s room were setting goals in preparation for standardized math testing, and also working together as a class, fi rst reading, and then analyz-ing a story. Down the hallway from her room, students at various grade levels, were working with their assistants in Mrs. Ament’s autism and learning sup-port classroom while other students in her room helped display classroom art-work that was about to be entered into a benefi t auction…… “One of our readers asked us to do some quick research to fi nd out why the Federal Government can’t use its buying power to lower the cost of Medicare part D drugs. So we turned to our quick reference friend, Wikipedia, and this is what we found: “When Congress overhauled Medicare in 2003 to pay for prescription drugs, law-makers banned the agency from negotiat-ing with drug companies as a concession to the pharmaceutical industry. Instead the insurers who cover the roughly 42 mil-lion enrollees in Medicare’s Part D drug program obtain their own discounts.” But more importantly, the article didn’t stop there. It went on to explain that “Many ex-perts argue that the Federal Government could do a lot better job than the insurers---pointing to deeper discounts obtained by Medicaid and Veterans’ Administration, which can bargain directly.” In most cases they manage to get the prices down 50% lower than what the insurers for Medicare pay (incidentally, this is the pricing level that drug companies sell their products to European nations……..The 10th annual Bar Stool Open takes place this Satur-day, April 30th from 12-6 PM around the area at local pubs. Remember to have fun, play honest, and then stop at the Bradford VFW Post #212, 94 Bar-bour Street at 6PM for the After Party and Awards Ceremony. And even if you don’t take part in the event itself, come in to see the team members in their costumes and enjoy the party atmosphere…….Re-member also that the following week-end, May 7th, brings the East Bradford Stinkfest, come rain or shine, from 11 AM- 6 PM, where we’re sure to fi nd a car-nival atmosphere with lots of leaky foods, lots of merchandise, a plentiful supply of beverages for all ages, and friendly people with which to socialize.

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESFive Ways To Save On An Overseas Trip My neighbors and I talked for weeks about their upcoming European vacation with their teenaged kids. We discussed every single place they planned to visit. But when I asked if they knew how much their European train and ground transpor-tation, smartphone data plans and meals out were going to cost, they shrugged and said, “We’re not worried. That’s the cheapest part of the trip!” They might have been right - if they had planned ahead. Sometimes it’s not the airfare and hotel bill that get you, it’s the failure to monitor small expenses that can turn into big ones in a hurry. No matter where you go, there are hidden money pits. That’s why smart money management be-fore you travel is so important. Whether you meet or exceed your budget depends on how you plan and execute your spend-ing. Consider these fi ve tips to help you conserve funds in all major areas of vaca-tion spending: 1. Start by sweating the small stuff. Take some time to do a bit of research on basic expenses at the various locations where you’re planning to go. Talking to friends can help and so can travel maga-zines and sites. 2. Keep the costs of ground transpor-tation in mind. The convenience of cabs or rental cars will likely cost more - and depending where you go, some options might be safer than others - so study op-tions like reloadable city smart cards or continental rail passes. Paying individual ticket prices for short hops or long jour-neys can drain your budget. Also, consider traveling at off-peak times of the day to get cheaper rates on train travel. 3. Know what it costs to use your elec-tronics. You’ve probably heard about peo-ple getting socked with huge cell phone bills. To avoid this, call your carrier be-fore you leave to make sure your phone will work wherever you’re going. If so, check if they offer an affordable interna-tional talk and data plan. If not, consider options like an international SIM card - a small chip card that fi ts inside your phone for specifi c use within that country- or a prepaid phone. If you’re downloading any apps to supply maps, translation or read-ing material on your phone or computer, do it while you are home to avoid chewing up international data at your destination. Also, be careful with Wi-Fi. Many recog-nizable global restaurants and fast-food chains offer the service for free, so check before you pay for it. Once you’re home, be sure to cancel any international servic-es you’ve ordered. 4. Eat like the locals. The Internet and the myriad travel sites it offers make it

easy to fi nd good places to eat at all price levels practically anywhere in the world. But eating food out can add up. Focus on the cheapest and safest ways the locals eat. 5. Travel insurance can be smart money management. Lost luggage, missed con-nections or a medical emergency won’t just ruin your trip - they can potentially wreck your fi nances. Check your personal home and health insurance to see what they might cover on a trip and back your protection with a leading travel insurance policy. Visit websites that will allow you

by - Nathaniel Sillinto compare coverage you need to select the best option for you. Make sure to check any travel insurance policy closely for any exclusions or pre-existing conditions that could void your coverage. Bottom line: It’s surprisingly easy to overspend when traveling overseas if you don’t do your research. Take the time to analyze all possible expenses large and small before you leave. Your travel budget will thank you.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDE

(NAPSI)—If you’re like most people, you have your own personal rituals. Some people can’t start the day without their fa-vorite newspaper, an early run or a warm shower. Personal rituals are comfortable and, in many cases, automatic. Unfor-tunately, a familiar ritual can sometimes turn into a bad habit. When you fi nd your-self habitually reaching for junk food or scrolling through your phone before going to sleep, it may be time to re-evaluate your routine. Certain rituals can affect not only your day, but potentially your life, so it’s im-portant to make choices that help you stay balanced. Keeping Your Habits In Check When bad habits form, many people don’t realize they might be slowly putting themselves at risk for serious health con-ditions. Even small changes in your dai-ly schedule can have surprising benefi ts. Consider the following: • Are you missing opportunities to be active? Try walking or biking to work, choosing the stairs and taking breaks from sitting at your desk. • Are you working too much? Prioritize your work-life balance. If you’re staying an extra hour at the offi ce each day, con-sider delegating work or discussing ex-pectations with a supervisor. Make time outside of work to embrace your hobbies. • What are your sleep habits? Turn off the TV and avoid looking at your phone once you’re in bed. A consistent sleep schedule will help you fall asleep faster, have a better night’s rest and feel ener-gized throughout the day. • How’s your diet? Nearly 30 million people have diabetes, 95 percent of them type 2, a condition affecting the way the body processes blood sugar. You can make smart and fl avorful substitutions by swap-ping out sugar for Equal 0-calorie sweet-ener in your coffee, tea and other bever-ages. Sweetener substitutions can help

AICR HealthTalk-by Karen Collins, MS, RD, CDN

American Institute for Cancer Research Q: Will switching to sugar-free cakes and cookies help me lose weight? A: Switching to sugar-free cakes and sweets is unlikely to lead to much, if any, weight loss. Sweeteners used in these products usually include a sugar alcohol, such as maltitol or sorbitol, which are not zero-calorie, but about half the calories of sugar. Be-sides, sugar-free baked goods contain signifi cant calories from fat and refi ned grains. If you compare Nutrition Facts panels on similar types of regular and sugar-free cookies and cake mixes, you’ll see that they usually differ by zero to 30 calories per standard serving. When you do compare the Nutrition Facts labels, look carefully. Sometimes the serving size of sugar-free baked goods is smaller, either with fewer cookies or with slightly smaller sizes per serving. Small amounts of calorie savings do add up to produce weight loss. But for most people trying to lose weight, there’s generally no room for daily treats with 200 or more calories and little nutritional value. Choose only two regular cookies instead of three and you’ll save more calories than you do by choosing sugar-free cookies. Other strategies include choosing a smaller portion of cake, splitting a slice with someone or skipping frosted cake and instead topping the cake with sliced fruit. You don’t need to cut out all sweets in order to lose weight. Work on creating a healthy lifestyle in which you choose sweets less often. When you have them, slow down and really savor a small portion -- the true calorie-saving secret.

Daily Rituals Can Help Or Hurt

reduce sugar and calorie intake without sacrifi cing sweetness in your daily treats. • Can you cut down on costs? Often, people spend more than they realize on the little things. Try bringing your lunch to work. Enjoy a coffee shop–quality bev-erage at home. Because it’s sweetened with great-tasting Equal 0-calorie sweet-ener and only 21 calories per serving, it’s a drink you can feel good about.

(BRADFORD, PA) – Fire and emer-gency response organizations in Cameron, McKean and Potter counties have been awarded nearly $385,000 in grants from the state, Rep.

(NAPSI)—When the weather warms, many people’s thoughts turn to how to make sure their yard is in tip-top shape for planting. These 10 tips can help get your garden off to a great start: 1. Make a plan. First, decide what to plant. One thing you may want to consider is pollinator-attractant plants. Yellow, blue or purple fl owers make your garden more appealing to bees. The Pollinator Partner-ship’s Bee Smart mobile app helps gar-deners select the best plants in their area. You can visit FeedABee.com to view pol-linator gardens from around the country for inspiration. 2. Observe the current state of your garden. See how well last year’s planting choices worked out. Consider placement of compatible plants, sunlight, shade and irrigation. 3. Tidy up. Clean out old plants and weeds from last year’s garden, including the roots. Remove winter mulch or pine straw, too. 4. Survey the soil. Make sure the soil contains the right nutrients with a soil sampling kit, found at home and garden centers. This analysis will inform your decisions on fertilizing methods. Aerate your soil by breaking it up so air, water and nutrients penetrate the plant roots. 5. Take care of pests. Check for slugs, snails or aphids, treating any infestations you fi nd. 6. If it’s broken, fi x it. Fix broken structures and gardening tools. Also, treat wood with a preservative during dry peri-ods to prevent cracks and splitting. 7. Gather the tools you’ll need and make sure they’re clean. Sharpen and clean your tools, as proper maintenance saves you money and keeps disease from spreading between cuttings. 8. Planting vegetables? Consider raised beds. These warm quickly, encour-age good irrigation and aeration, and are excellent for diffi cult soil. In addition, you’ll be able to reach every corner to pull young weeds as they appear. 9. Prepare a compost pile. Buy or make a compost bin and throw in all your garden waste, grass clippings, paper, wood prunings, and fruit and veggie peel-ings. Turn and aerate it with a garden fork every month. 10. Label your plants. If you’re grow-ing food, learning to identify plants or sharing a community garden, plant mark-ers are a must. Use the plastic markers that came with the plants or buy or make your own from pebbles, bamboo skewers or broken terracotta pots. Label your plants with the variety name and date you plant-ed it.

Ten Ways To Get Prepared For Planting

Elaine Bovender’s Crispy Southern Fried Chicken is

the breading blended together just perfect. I did remove the skin before soaking and battering. This chicken is delicious! Serve with potato or macaroni salad and you’ll have very happy guests.
