Flag Day The “Stars and Stripes”, the official National symbol of the

United States of America was authorized by congress on that Saturday of June 14, 1777.

In Waubeka, Wisconsin, in 1885 Bernard John Cigrand, a nineteen year old school teacher in a one room school, had his students write essays on what the flag meant to them. He called June 14th the flag’s birthday. Stony Hill School is now a historical site. From that day on Cigrand dedicated himself to inspire his students and all Ameri-cans, in the real meaning and majesty of our flag.

Hometown Girl Named Employee ofthe Year at Orchard Villa

Oregon resident, Allison Thompson, remembers when Orchard Villa’s skilled nursing community was being built. It was 1995 as a Clay High School senior, she was driving by on her way to exercise at the YMCA.

“I saw the construction site and the big sign and wondered about working there one day,” says Allison, who was planning to attend nursing school after graduation.

One year later, Allison joined Orchard Villa as a nursing assistant. She’s still there today, now as a registered nurse, daytime nursing manager and the company’s 2016 Employee of the Year. Allison was honored with the award in April at the Employee of the Year Dinner for Legacy Health Services, the company that operates Orchard Villa.

Orchard Villa provides short-term rehabilitation, long-term care, skilled nursing, and soon, assisted living along with specialized programs such as orthopedic rehabilitation, respiratory care, cardiac programming, complex wound treatment, respite and hospice care.

Orchard Villa is one of 11 skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities operated by Legacy Health Services throughout Northern Ohio. The family-owned company is based in Parma, Ohio, and has a staff of more than 2,500 nurses; nursing assistants; certified nurse practitioners; andphysical, occupational and speech therapists.

CONGRATS!OMA Names Carol Bintz Professional of the Year

Carol Bintz, chief operating officer of the Toledo Museum of Art, has been named Professional of the Year by the Ohio Museum Association. The award was presented during the organization’s recent statewide conference.

The honor, recognizing professional accomplishments and service by an OMA member institution, is presented for outstanding leadership and professional service over an extended period of time;

demonstrating continual growth and development of an organization or specific programs.

Bintz has been with the Toledo Museum of Art since 1991. As chief operating officer she played a crucial role overseeing construction of the award-winning Glass Pavilion® and in making the Museum a leader in the use of green technologies. Under her guidance the institution’s move to use solar power, LED lighting and micro-turbine generators has made TMA a leader in retrofitting its facilities to reduce operating costs. The Museum went “off the grid” for the first time in 2013, returning more energy to the system than it used.

Generations UnitedWe try to refrain from saying, “that isn’t the way we

use to do it”, but we find ourselves muttering those words more frequently. Then, inevitably, we get the “look”, but with an eye roll evidencing the difference between our generation and theirs. It is the moment when we realize that there truly is a generation gap.

Modern technology has accentuated the gap. A World War II veteran, who knew a radio as a large box with tubes, can now video call his great-grand-children with a cell phone. A Baby Boomer, who lived and breathed 45 RPM disks, vinyl, and liner notes now accesses thousands of those same “records” stored on a device the size of a match book. A match book, by the way, is something a Millennial (the generation born after 1990, coming of age in the new millennium) wouldn’t understand. Who needs matches when you have “vaping”?

Generations DefinedThe terms thrown around for years by mar-

keting experts and journalists echo in our pop culture: Traditionalists or Greatest Genera-tions ( born from 1900-1945), Baby-Boomers or Boomers (1945-1964), Gen X (1965-1979), the Millennials (1980 - 2000), and our latest generational addition, iGen. Internest charts abound defining the influences in each gen-eration. For the Greatest Generation it is

WW II. Boomers? Civil rights and the Vietnam War. Gen X? Watergate,

the energy crisis, end of the cold war. Millennials? School shoot-ings, AIDS, and 9/11.

Yet all of these events are shared throughout the genera-tions. People born in 1940 re-member Watergate and those born in 1977 remember 9/11. So why the divide? Why paint a group of individuals with so broad of a brush?

“People always want to know how things relate to them person-ally,” states Lynnette Werning, President of Blue Water Commu-nications. “Whether the subject is an art exhibit, a new article of clothing, music or everyday news, how it impacts individual

lives is always paramount in communication.”

Werning, whose company works extensively with the Toledo Museum of Art, continues. “Word of mouth is still a powerful way of communicating whether you are 20 or 80. People are interested in what their friends are interested in. If your friends do it, you are more likely to do it as well.” That makes it easy, unfortunately, to group people into clusters. It defines generations.

More Similar than DifferentA common sight in a computer or electronics store is

a Millennial teaching a Baby Boomer about a new piece of technology. While it might seem this is an exmple of a generation gap, when both generations share a bond where something tangible needs to be taught and learned - the gap disappears. According to Werning, this is true for events as well.

“It is not unusual at an event or exhibit at the museum to see three generations (grandparents, parents, and kids) show up to an event together. They may walk away with differing impressions of the exhibition but they all come to have their lives enriched and their minds stimulated by art and culture. As long as the exhibit finds a way to connect directly with the attendee, generation gaps evaporate.”

Art, news, desire, values, jobs, fears, patriotism, sports, and a host of other issues and concerns are trans-genera-tional. Our perspective might be slightly different but the underlying concerns are the same. Retirement is a primary example. For those, born before WW II, pensions were the dominant retirement plan. From Gen X forward, pensions are a shrinking option, often non existent.

Concern over a secure retirement is woven throughout the generations. When the company you retired from is sold to a multinational equity group, the Korean War Vet-eran will ask, “What is going to happen to my pension?” When the NASDAQ has a substantial drop in a day a Gen X’er will ask, “What is going to happen to my 401K?” It is the same question. They might seek their answers in differ-ent ways, one waiting for the mail while the other checks on line, but they seek similar answers.

Werning agrees. “In communication, regardless of age or generation, you still have to deliver messages and get people to respond to your message. Your delivery mecha-nism might change but the message and the call to action remains. It might be easier to reach certain groups through print and another through broadcast, but the medium doesn’t change the fact that you want them to listen.”

CommunicationsThrough the YearsHow to Make Friends with Your Grandparents and Parents

By Daniel Intrater Communicating across the

generational divide allows a lot to be learned. As technol-ogy advances, it becomes harder for the Generation XYZers (1965-Present) to com-municate with Baby Boomers and elder generations.

Learning from The Silent GenerationGrandparents are a valuable source of in-

formation. Ever since I can remember, when I would go over to my grandparents house, I was taught one or two historical facts. Grandparents are great sources of information — they lived through historical events and can share facts and memories about them.

I learned many skillls from my grandparents. I have never been much of a sewer or gardener. Nevertheless, through the years, my grandmoth-er has taught me both. I also learned some fun games, such as bridge and Maj-Jong. If you mas-ter the game, they will invite you to come play with their friends...for money!

Grandparents have wisdom. They have over-come obstacles and experienced many events to get to where they are. Sitting down and talking with my grandparents, I learn something new from each conversation. From family history to emotional support, they know it all. But don’t try to force them into using technology, such as phones and laptops. Let them ease into it and, ultimately, communicate with them where they are comfortable.

What you Can Learn from The Baby BoomersParents are also a great source of information and knowledge. My parents have taught me the importance of religion, manners, multi-tasking, patience and love, all skills that are important to my development.

Parental guidance can encourage us to fol-low their chosen religious path and model how to handle yourself in public. Parents are some of the best multi-taskers on the planet. From daily employment, to cooking, to laundry to loving, they do it all concurrently. Some parents even multi-task with a smile, or while cracking a joke!

“Patience is a virtue” is a common saying. Observing parents can lead to learning about patience. They teach by example: waiting for you to potty train, at appointments or at activi-ties. Parents teach unconditional love. The best way to honor your parents is to be patient with them as they age and face challenges. Remem-ber to reciprocate the unconditional love and pa-tience that was shown to you!

Daniel is a nineteen year old journalismmajor at Ohio University

Generations BlendedMemories of downtown Toledo illustrate the genera-tional divides and similarities. The Greatest Genera-tion, and most Boomers, remember downtown Toledo as shopping at places like The Lion Store (eventually bought by Dillard’s) and Macy’s (formerly LaSalle’s Department Store). They remember naming tower-ing buildings like One Seagate and The Toledo Edi-son Building and identifying those buildings as world headquarters of Fortune 500 companies. Downtown was the place to be.

However, many Boomers and certainly most Gen Xers readily identify downtown as a scene of corporate flight and project failure. Many companies have left the downtown area to move to the suburbs and it is not uncommon to hear someone talk, about a shop-ping area called “Portside”, something which most Millennials don’t even know existed.

Of course, those perceptions are continuing to change and blend across generations. Ask almost any-one and they will tell you downtown is cool. After all, downtown is where you see the Mudhens, the Wall-eye, and other fun events from the circus to Disney on Ice. Millennials have rediscovered the area and are hanging out there and moving in by the score. The revitalization of the Warehouse District, the recently passed entertainment zone along the Adams Street Corridor, and the opening of Hensville adjacent to 5/3 Field are just a few of the projects that are redefining downtown. Across generational lines, people are enjoying downtown again.

Don’t Call Me That! No generation likes to be categorized.

Millennials are particularly sensitive to the subject, but the feeling is ubiquitous throughout age groups.Yet, if you go by the demographic charts, it is easy to see why each generation doesn’t like to be identified as a generation. Baby Boom-ers view themselves as much too trans-formational to be lumped into a group. Gen X sees itself as too independent to be part of the crowd while Millennials think the term is pejorative.

Werning identifies why we are un-comfortable with labels. “I think that anytime you use stereotypes to com-municate it is wrong. People simply don’t fit into categories as neatly as the demographic charts would like.” She continues, “We are all unique individuals, If you engage us as in-dividuals, not as some hypothetical generation, we will respond.”

FashionStyle Tips for Swimwear Oh No – Summer’s Hereby Pat Nowak

Most women in our image conscious society are concerned about their bodies. When bathing suit season arrives, panic can ensue. Now, at the beginning of June, with summer arriving and with those winter pounds still hanging around, some feel it is time for concern.

But this year’s news about bathing suits runs the gamut from stylish two piece high-waisted swimwear to athleisure wears’ popularity - Sporty swimwear for women that aren’t afraid to break a sweat.

Ruffles, forals and stripesRuffles continue their beachfront reign and floral prints

dominate, especially those that feature this summer’s hot color, turquoise. Stripes, always popular, continue to trend this year.

For those a little more daring, retro-inspired suits have been updated with sheer paneling and strategically placed cut-outs. Fringe, back in the spotlight for a number of seasons in the ready-to-wear market, has swimwear designers taking note. If a tasseled suit isn’t your thing, opt for a fringe cover-up.

And finally a throwback to the 90’s, simplify life with mini-mal swimwear – those basic styles in one piece looks are back in the limelight – basic no longer means boring.

No matter what your style, the most important thing to remember is to shop for your shape. First make sure the fit is good – it might be wise to go up one size. Look for a fit that is snug, but not tight, and make sure that your bust and butt are firmly in the suit – flesh spilling over is not an appealing look. Make sure to stretch, sit down and, if wearing a strapless top, put your hands over your head to make sure the top is stable.

Plunging neckline takes attention from the tummy

High waisted Solid colors for plus size 2-pieces

Ruffles help mask boyish figures

To get your most flattering fit, rememberIf you have a boyish figure aim to create curves

with ruffles, patterns and color blocking. If you are blessed with curves make sure you have support both with an underwire and be cautious of delicate fabrics as they don’t have the structure you need. If you are ample at the hips add width at the top with special detailing, brighter colors or ruching. A high cut on a suit makes your legs look longer and in bet-ter shape.

If you are small busted, put volume on the top with padding or ruffles to make your top seem

fuller. If you are fuller on top you might want to use a built in or a push up bra,

remembering to keep your cleavage un-der control.

If you want to look taller make sure to use vertical lines with high cut bottoms, and, if you have a tummy, as

most of us do, utilize a plunging neck-line to take the attention from the stom-

ach area.

If you need a plus size remember that fitted fabric in solid colors is stylish. Also consider span-dex – it is great for any swim suit as it moves with you. In general a darker color will complement all sizes and shapes and some nice alternatives to black (always a yes whether one piece or two) are brown, purple, navy, deep blue or dark green.

Make sure this year you are ready for the pool. These tips will insure that your summer fun is beach party perfect.

Finance

Banks make their money by charg-ing fees to account holders. In 2015, 628 banks, subject, to the new reporting rules revealed that they made more than $11 billion in overdraft and nonsufficient funds fees, accounting for 8% of their total net income. The Consumer Finan-cial Protection Bureau continues to look closely at overdraft fees, but it’s up to you to know which bank fees can leave the biggest hole in your wallet, and how best to avoid them.

Overdraft FeesWhen you initiate a transaction that

requires more money than what’s in your account, your bank may float you a loan to cover it. But you’ll pay dearly for this convenience. The granddaddy of bank fees, overdraft fees cost a me-dian $35 a pop.

• Opt out. You’re not required to participate in any sort of overdraft program. This way, you’ll simply be denied when you try to initiate a point-of-sale or ATM transaction that overdraws your account. Be-ware that you still may have to pay a nonsufficient funds fee on check transactions or certain recurring transactions such as automatic bill pay.

• Choose overdraft transfers. Overdraft transfers let you link a sec-ond account, such as savings or a line of credit, to your checking account. Then, the next time you overdraw your account, the bank covers your request with funds from the linked account.

Banking Fees Draining Your AccountEducation Saves You Money

Pat Nowak

• Police your spending more carefully. Ideally, you’ll keep enough of a cushion in your check-ing account to avoid worrying about overdraft fees, but this might not be realistic for everyone. Make sure you take advantage of customizable account alerts. Practically every ma-jor bank will let you receive an alert when your account balance dips be-low a designated amount.

Account maintenance feesThis vague monthly fee exists to cov-

er administrative costs on your account. Maintenance fees average $13.00 a month. It’s easy to avoid monthly main-tenance fees if you do your homework:

• Find a free checking ac-count. Free checking accounts do still exist. Nearly one in four checking accounts are are still maintenance-fee free.

• See whether you can get the fee waived. Many banks offer several ways for customers to avoid the monthly maintenance fee. For instance, some banks waive fees for customers who (1) make direct deposits of $500 or more, (2) keep a minimum daily balance of $1,500 or more, or (3) average a balance of $5,000 or more across certain accounts.

ATM feesSince they’re low-dollar, ATM fees

may seem innocent enough. But if you find yourself using non-network ATMs often, a few dollars here and there can add up quickly. If you want to avoid

shelling out a $5 fee next time you need a quick $50 or $60, here are some com-mon-sense strategies that will help mini-mize ATM fees:

• Go with a bank that reim-burses ATM fees. Some banks (many of them online) do this as a matter of practice in order to attract business. Other banks may offer this perk on higher-level checking ac-counts that require you to carry a heftier balance to avoid the fees. Use your bank’s branch/ATM locator. Every major bank has one of these on their homepage and mobile app. Use it. There’s no sense paying out-of-network fees when your bank has an ATM you didn’t know about just around the corner.

•Cut down on ATM use. Right? If you find yourself hitting an out-of-network ATM a couple times a week for small amounts, withdraw a larger amount once a week instead. Better yet, get cash back at a store register when you’re making a purchase. Just make sure the store doesn’t charge any fees for the service first.

A Father’s Day TributeBy Pat Nowak

On Father’s Day, I lovingly remember my dad. While he died almost 20 years ago, I still miss him. He was the one who was always there for me, providing the sage advice and wisdom that still guides me, years later.

One of ten children, he was a celebrated athlete at Woodward High School. He served in World War II, arriving home to marry my mother in February, 1946. The first of his four daughters was born 9 months later, in November.

My first memory is how he used to sing my sister and I to sleep with the songs “When Irish Eyes are Smiling and Too-Ra-Loo-Ra-Loo-Ra (an Irish lul-laby). The father of daughters; life was not easy for him. He could have been discouraged, not having a son to carry on his name. However, not once did we girls feel unappreciated - he was always our biggest champion. We accompanied him to softball games and bowling alleys where he proudly showed us off.

We had one bathroom in our home, always filled with rollers, clothes and all kinds of “girl things”, yet he never complained. He worked two jobs to make sure

that my mother could buy all the frills. He was a feminist supporter long before it was trendy. He reminded us that we could be anything we wanted to be, rather than suggesting that we choose the safe route of nursing or teaching (the few options generally believed to be available for women back then).

He was the one who picked up all of my friends and delivered them home safely after many events. He was always the parent in charge when we got home late, giving us a wink and telling us not to tell our mother. But, oh how a strong word of reprimand from him could devastate us.

His needs were small: University of Notre Dame football, Cleveland Indians baseball, bowling two times a week, an occasional trip to Raceway Park and his favorite snack, always - peanuts. He walked four daughters down the aisle, paying dearly for our large weddings and he enjoyed his nine grandchildren - he finally got his boys, athletes all - excelling in football, soccer, tennis and wrestling.

He had a stroke at 69, it was devastating, but he learned how to manage. Slowly over the next ten years he lost his ability to walk well, his speech suffered and dementia developed. He died at 79.

My father left a legacy of gentleness... he taught us to be kind to everyone, not to hold grudges, and that we had choices in life. He treated everyone with warmth and concern and he had no enemies - and his Irish blue eyes always twinkled. His legacy lives on in his nine grandchildren and fifteen great grand-children. I celebrate his memory on Father’s Day.

Dr. Joan Lawrence, a psychologist at Assessment and Family Therapy in Sylvania has some pretty strong feelings about the value of friendship, claiming that “friends are our family of the heart”, and many times, are as important as your biological or marital family. Some friendships may be occasional interactions but others are like the brothers, sisters, Moms, and Dads that your heart chose.

Marina Lung, a Toledo psychologist, explains that the bond between humans is essential for mental health. Bonding begins at birth and if the bond is not a good one, the infant’s well-being will be negatively effected.

Ms. Lung believes that the value of friendship is shown by the fact that women generally live longer than men because they are better at socializing and forming friendship bonds.

Friendship leads to longer livesDr. Lawrence believes that being around friends can help

you live a healthier lifestyle of diet and exercise, reduce blood pressure, enjoy your job more, and more effec-tively manage the routine stresses of day to day living, as well as the more troubling events like death in the family, divorce, etc.

According to Dr. Lawrence, having friends can help us age better and live longer. A strong body of evidence shows that regularly interact-ing with friends in our ‘twilight years’ can keep our minds sharper, help us adjust better to life transitions and physical changes associated with growing older.

In fact, according to The Harvard Women’s Health Watch, the lack of strong relationships and friendships hurts us as much as smoking up to 15 cigarettes a day and has a more negative effect than obesity and lack of exercise.

Making new friendsAARP has some good ideas about how to

make new friends. One of their points is that

it might take a bit of courage to get out of your comfort zone and approach someone you have just met. Other strategies they suggest are:

n Consider taking continuing education classes at a local college n Senior centers have modernized – stop in and check out their offerings

n Engage in activities (from cooking classes to political organizing) that you care a great deal about – mak ing friends who care about what you care about is easier.

n Find local groups you might be interested in joining at meetup.com

n Join a faith community

n Start a Facebook page

n Volunteer – many groups and institutions need your help. These websites list groups that need you! createthegood.org and voa.org

Health Notes

Smoking Detriment to employment

Not just jarming health, smoking also impacts job searches and salaries.

In an study reported in April’s JAMA Internal Medicine, smokers and non-smokers were compared regarding ac-cess to employment and salaries.

Non-smokers who had lost their jobs, were 24% more likely to be re-employed after one year than unem-ployed smokers. After one year the average hourly wage for non-smokers was $20.27, while it was only $15.10 for smokers. jamanetwork.com

The Mayo clinic has suggestion about how to be a good friend:Accept yourself – we are who we are – we all have weaknesses. Don’t criticize yourself or be insecure.Accept others – nobody’s perfect - look at the good parts of people – forgive.

Be positive – do good things for, and say good things to friends

Do not compete – focusing on being #1 does not help friendships

Seriously listen – do not just dominate conversations. Avoid giving advice unless asked.Respect boundaries by not sharing or requesting information that is overly personal.Devote time to your friendship – family or work should not always come first.

Show regard for your friend’s time and life – do not over contact and find the best way to communicate

Cousino’sTiffany Salad

The food is delicious; great ingredi-ents prepared with expert skill cannot miss. The service is spectacular; the staff, experienced pros, make you feel like you are a special guest.

Founded in 1945 by the late Earl Cousino, the traditions have been care-fully passed down to the generations that have followed him in the family trade.

A fine dining experience with a rustic feel, the moment I walked through the door I was greeted by Constantino Mo-relli, the step-son of restaurateur Thomas Cousino, son of the founder.

“We treat every guest as family,” Mo-relli said. “It’ a very social setting…ev-eryone knows your name.”

It wasn’t long before Morelli stopped by our table to check on us; the host on duty visits with everyone, getting to

Note: Our condolences to the family and friends of Cousino’s Steak House founder Earl Cousino, who passed away May 2, 2016, at 99. Earl is survived by his children, Caro-lyn Vassar, Thomas (Eileen) Cousino, Diana “Corky” (Keith) Hymore, Lynn Cousino; 14 grandchildren; 27 great-grandchildren; 12 great-great-grandchildren and 1 great-great-great-grandchild. He was preceded in death by wife, Geraldine and brothers, Huley and Russell Cousino.

know the customers, table by table, per-son by person. It didn’t take long to feel like part of the family.

Morelli explained “Our hand cut sir-loin is what we built our reputation on. Our quality never changes. We’ve had return customers coming to us for de-cades, and they become very vocal when we change something.”

A NWOhio StandoutOnly a handful of restaurants in

Northwest Ohio enjoy the longevity of Cousino’s. The recipes, handed down over the years, well secure the fam-ily brand. Everything is house-prepared. The homemade bread, basted in butter and garlic, came ahead of our main dish, and could have been a meal itself.

Porterhouse or a 20-ounce T-Bone for the healthy ap-petites, also lists Filet Mi-gnon and pork chops. My food choices were served promptly, a signature 12-ounce sirloin steak with two sides, follow-ing French onion soup, which was excellent. With a big fresh salad, and accompanying bread, the French onion soup might have been plenty to satisfy me, but the steaks are just too good to pass up.

Great sandwiches and burg-ers, seafood options and some old-fashioned classics, including Cory’s Pan-Fried Chicken, Baby Beef Liver, Margherita Pizza, Pasta Tournedos, Classic Linguini Alfredo, Cajun Lin-guine and Thai Chicken Shrimp, round out the menu.

When two architects come together, anything is possible. Ed and Mary Glowacki moved into their stunning home in 2002 as just the third owners; the home was built by Jay Lockwood in 1910.

Both previous owners lived in the home 46 years so the Glowacki’s have a record to maintain.

The inside of the home is designed with a contemporary flair using both mission and modern pieces. The hardwood floors, mixed with terrazzo tile are original and the woodwork (a work in progress) is stunning.

Proud owners of a 1948 Noguchi table and 1925 Wassilly chair, designed by Marcel Breuer, the living room is dramatic, featuring a myriad of colors and textures. The dining room is eye-catching and the simplicity of the kitchen is unique in this historical setting.

The Glowackis, not afraid of color, have embraced bold tones throughout the home, including their modern bedroom. Large paintings and glass pieces are used expertly in the decor.

The doors on the garage are most unusual - something you don’t see any-more. Homes in the Old West End are aged, but still dazzle.
