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

Guest Columnist

“Scolded”-by Bob Perry

President Barack Obama scolded CBS News reporter Major Garrett at the White House on Wednesday the 15th by stating “That’s nonsense. And you should know better.” Mr. President, it is you that should know better as not to unfairly scold publicly and have control of your unchecked reaction to emotional upset. O b a m a was answering questions after asserting that the nuclear deal reached with Iran the deal “was the best means of assuring that Iran does not get a nuclear weapon.” The deal will in time actually guarantee Iran will be able to get nuclear weapons. The question from Major Garrett was “As you well know, there are four Ameri-cans in Iran, three held on trumped up charges according to your administration, one, whereabouts unknown. Can you tell the country, sir, why you are content, with all the fanfare around this [nuclear] deal to leave the conscious of this nation, the strength of this nation, unaccounted for, in relation to these four Americans?” The scolding came after Obama gave credit for the crafty words in the ques-tion and Major Garrett was not deserving of the public embarrassment. Being ob-viously annoyed at the question, Obama also failed to answer Garrett’s question. We have been witness to how Obama deals with hostages in the case of sergeant Bergdahl wherein he gave up fi ve of the worst senior Taliban prisoners for a sol-dier charged with desertion and misbehav-

ior before the enemy. And with Iran, the enemy, at the negotiation table, the issue of the hostages was not included. Without a teleprompter, the President has proved over and over he is hesitant and deliberative in his choice of words with a sense of disconnect with the conversation resulting in delivering a questionable re-sponse. This is but another example. As for the ’deal’; Iran has played the delay game successfully for years and it will be proven that they have won this game be-cause for them to agree to a deal they will have produced enough fi ssile material for a nuclear weapon. Iran never shows the cards they are holding and all the holes they have dug into the earth hiding exactly what they are doing and the progress they have made. The deal in itself was clearly a desper-ate attempt to get any deal as part of some historical accomplishment as being Presi-dent. Congress has 60 days in which to amend and/or vote against the deal. This is not a treaty and a no vote by Congress will keep the deal in place while changes would be vetoed by Obama requiring a 2/3 override by Congress to revise the deal. History will reveal the value of any and all achievements Obama has accomplished while in offi ce. The ques-tion remains as to the real motives Obama has, and like the Iranians, he is not show-ing all the cards he is holding. The next seventeen months will be most revealing. Don’t be too surprised.

Some of the photos for this edition of the Bradford Journal were taken as we drove around town, capturing as grist for our camera, those who might be outside on a warm sum-mer’s day, others were selected inten-tionally for this issue. Jim Delo was one such scheduled picture. He had submit-ted a prediction to our paper concern-ing who he thought would become the next President of the U.S., and we had included it in our last edition of 7/16/15 (on page 15 of that issue for those who may have missed it). It was a nice poem, and we believe the effort was worth a photo. Another such scheduled photo was taken during our stop to see one of Bradford’s well-known barbers, George Pascarella, at his shop located at the back of the Holley Hotel/Riddell House. In this case we learned a little about his history as a barber: He fi rst went to work for Frank Grandinetti, from whom he received his barber’s li-cense. He worked there for four years, beginning in 1961. Then he spent ten years working for Tommy Cardimone (Tommy’s Barber Shop) where he more fully developed the skills of his trade, and learned enough about the business of barbering to go out on his own. He along with Jack Truby, another barber at Tommy’s Shop, moved to a shop which he named the George & Jack Barber Shop, located upstairs at 21 Main Street above the Wise Shop (the same location as Dave Offenback barber shop), where he remained for six years. And fi nally, in 1988, he moved to his present location, and has been there for the last 27 years. George tells us that there is still a good market for barbers. His theory is that most young people who are looking at the profession of barbering opt to spend less time in school, and become beau-ticians rather than the more extended course required to become a barber. But we’re not too sure about that……..The Penn Brad Oil Museum is scheduled to hold a fun fi lled family event, on August 5th, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM during it’s annual Derrick Day. There we are promised craft vendors, food, demonstrations, antique oilfi eld equipment displays, candle making, a chain saw carver, barbershop quartet, talks of oilfi eld history and more……..Three advertisers found on the Siz-zling Summer Savings Page of this edition are sure to please with their newly expanded services: Choice Cigarette Outlet, Timeless Treasures Gift Shop, And Dexter’s Service and Collision. It makes sense to deal with local merchants and service providers.

BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESBuilding A Back-To-School Budget

-by Nathaniel Sillin Back-to-school spending isn’t just about clothes and markers anymore. In 2014, Forbes reported that Accen-ture estimated (http://newsroom.accen-ture.com/images/20020/Graphic.pdf) that nearly half of respondents reported they would spend $500 or more on back-to-school expenses, including not only clothes and desk supplies, but electronics as well. Yet there’s one more aspect of back-to-school spending that’s growing and can add hundreds – and sometimes thousands – to a family’s overall K-12 education budget. Since the 2008 economic crisis, many public school systems have tried to make up for funding shortfalls by add-ing fi rst-time or expanded fees for sports, extracurricular activities and specialized academics. This means that back-to-school budg-eting, even for families with kids in pub-lic school, now requires a more holistic, year-round approach to all back-to-school expenses. Given their potential dollar amounts, parents should examine school fees fi rst. Public education has never been com-pletely free of charge beyond local taxes – parents have traditionally paid extra money to support their kids’ participation in sports, music or other extracurricular activities. However, many school systems are adding fees for a broader range of of-ferings including after-school activities, top-level courses, lab-based instruction and even Advanced Placement (AP) class-es. So before you start spending money on clothes and supplies that can be bought off-season, on sale or possibly used, get a handle on how applicable instruction and activity fees might affect your budget. (http://www.practicalmoneyskills.com/ budgeting/). Parents in fi nancial need may qualify for public aid or grants to cover such fees; if not, choices will need to be made. Consider turning back-to-school shop-ping into a money lesson. Most kids like to have certain kinds of clothes, shoes or supplies. Those “wants” can be turned into a discussion about spending priori-ties, value, choice and comparison shop-ping. Using the Back to School Budg-et (http://practicalmoneyskills.com/calculators/calculate/backToSchoolBudg-et.php?calcCategory=family) calculator with your kids can help them learn how create a budget before shopping for essen-tials. As kids get older, the discussion can expand to cover bigger-ticket purchases like smartphones, computers and fees for special courses and activities they want to pursue. Some of these issues might evolve into a discussion about earning money through chores or a part-time job. Once priorities are decided, every ex-pense should be tracked, including a child’s round trip school transportation,

meals, tutoring fees or immunization and healthcare expenses not covered by insur-ance. And once that budget is set, it means a constant search for smart ways to cut. Some ideas may include: • Car pooling (track your costs to make sure you’re not adding signifi cantly to your overall transportation budget) • Packing lunches at home• Working with school administrators to raise outside donations or grant funding to cover parents’ out-of-pocket costs • Organizing school supplies in one place to avoid purchasing duplicates • Renting equipment, supplies or instru-ments used until a child’s interests are es-tablished• Scouting garage sales, thrift shops and online marketplaces for used, required-edition textbooks, instruments, electron-ics, sports equipment, clothes and other supplies you’d otherwise buy new; online resources shouldn’t charge shipping or re-turn fees• Reviewing school and classroom sup-ply lists before buying essentials• Bulk- and group-buying supplies and services with other parents to get volume prices• Consolidating back-to-school shopping during tax-free days (if your state offers them)• Swapping used supplies and equipment with other parents • Checking retail memberships for any back-to-school savings they offer• Watching for print and online coupons or special discount offers through your school• Listening to your kids – they might spot money-saving ideas faster than you can One fi nal secret budget item – rewards. Saving money on back-to-school expens-es can help parents meet a number of fi -nancial goals, but kids’ academic or activ-

ity success deserves recognition. Consider setting aside a little of those savings for a reward they can enjoy. Bottom line: When setting your back-to-school budget this year, think beyond the supplies. Consider every possible fee and expense associated with your child’s school year and plan accordingly.

ON THE HEALTHY SIDEThe Pregnancy

Symptoms You Shouldn’t Ignore—

Is It Preeclampsia? (NAPSI)—Swelling? Sleepless-ness? Headaches that just won’t go away? These may seem like normal symptoms of pregnancy but, in reality, they may also be caused by a serious condition called preeclampsia. You may have heard about preec-lampsia in the news lately. Multiple celebrities have shared their stories. Or maybe you have a sister, friend or neighbor who was diagnosed with the condition. Many women are aware that preec-lampsia is something that can occur during pregnancy but they don’t know what it is and what symptoms to be on the lookout for. Preeclampsia, sometimes called tox-emia, is a life-threatening medical con-dition that occurs during pregnancy. It is a disease of the placenta that impacts both mother and baby and is among the top fi ve leading causes of death in pregnant women. Preeclampsia occurs in almost 10 percent of all pregnancies, typically during the second and third trimesters. When preeclampsia oc-curs before 34 weeks of pregnancy, it’s known as early-onset preeclampsia. Preeclampsia is most commonly as-sociated with high blood pressure—something that is monitored during routine checkups with your doctor or midwife. While high blood pressure is usually the fi rst symptom, it isn’t some-thing you would notice yourself. There are many other symptoms associated with preeclampsia that should not be ignored:• Swelling of hands, feet and face• Nausea• Persistent headaches• Sleeplessness• Stomach pain• Visual disturbances• A sense of malaise that won’t go away. If you experience any of these symp-toms, call your doctor immediately. If preeclampsia isn’t treated, it can be life threatening. The current treatment standard for early-onset preeclampsia is “expectant management,” whereby the mother is admitted to the hospital where she and her baby will be closely cared for and monitored. The goal of expectant man-agement is to allow the mother to safe-ly remain pregnant so that the baby has more time to develop before it is born. More time in the womb means fewer complications when the baby is born.

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

American Institute for Cancer Research Q: Is lemonade a healthy fruit juice? A: Consider lemonade more like a sugar-sweetened drink. Commercial “real old-fashioned” lemonade is typically only about 15 percent lemon juice, similar to fruit drinks that contain a little juice and a lot of sugar water. Most recipes for homemade lemonade call for three to four tablespoons of sugar (picture nine to twelve restaurant sugar packets!) in each 12-ounce serving of lemonade – as many calories as an equal amount of sugar-sweetened soda. Whether homemade the old-fashioned way from lemon juice and sugar, mixed from frozen concen-trate or a powdered mix, or a bottled organic drink, regular lemonade usually contains about 150 to 200 calories in each 12-ounce portion.For lower calories, one option is to dilute frozen concentrate or mix with more water than listed on package instructions. Most powdered mixes are lemonade fl avor, without any lemon juice at all, though some do reduce added sugar, cut-ting calories by about a third. Mixes and “light” ready-to-drink lemonade sweet-ened with zero-calorie sweeteners contain ten or fewer calories, comparable to diet soft drinks. Unlike soda, some lemonades contain from 10 to 100 percent of Daily Value (DV) for vitamin C. Sometimes this vitamin C is from lemon juice; in other cases, especially when high amounts of vitamin C are present, it’s be-cause of added vitamin C and is not a sign of actual fruit juice content. If you’re looking for a naturally low-calorie alternative to regular soda, consider iced tea (unsweetened or very lightly sweetened, regular or decaf) or ice water with a dash of added juice. Or try making fruit-infused water! Although lemon-ade may have a “health halo” and seem like a more nutritious choice than soda or fruit juice drinks, big bottles or glass-after-glass of any of these sugar-loaded drinks on a hot day can make calorie and sugar consumption quickly soar.

At this time, there are no medica-tions approved in the United States for specifi cally treating this condition. Clearly, this is an unmet medical need.

You may be surprised to learn that cooking with olive oil is a simple way to add heart-healthy “good” fats to your diet. In fact, the health benefits, flavor and versatility ofolive oil are all good reasons that olive oil is a staple in many kitchens.

Not only can you replace other oils in recipes with olive oil (or extra virgin olive oil foradded flavor), in many recipes you can also replace butter with olive oil to reduce saturated fat, cholesterol and calories.

Studies show that your body absorbs nutrients from greens and vegetables better when theyare consumed with a monounsaturated fat such as olive oil. These recipes help you get the mostout of your veggies, and enjoy a decadent dessert too. Learn more at www.aboutoliveoil.org.

Data theft has become an issue thataffects the lives of nearly everyone in the United States. At least six billsactive in Congress this year aim to helpmitigate problems with data security

standards and practices. Yet, legislation is notnecessary to take an immediate and giant leapforward toward better data security. Consumer credit card transactions should be much more secure — and could be today — but it continues to unnecessarily lag behind the rest of the world.

In October 2014, President Obama issued anExecutive Order calling for all government-issuedpayment cards to be equipped with chip and PINtechnology — the most secure payment systemavailable today. Chip and PIN is the preferredsecurity all over the world as it is used in most of Europe and Australia, as well as many parts of Africa and South America.

However, the big banks that issue major cards,credit unions and other financial institutions havenot taken similar steps to protect their customers.Instead, they are replacing existing magnetic stripecards with microchip-equipped cards that still relyon unsecure signatures as a form of verification.

“While it’s a small step in the right direction, theyare consciously failing to protect their cus tomers bynot offering all of the available security measures.The PIN is a necessary element of the equation toprotect consumers,” said Debra Berlyn, leader ofProtectMyData, a consumer education campaignadvocating for the implementation of chip and PINtechnology for credit and debit cards. “The PINrequirement adds a distinct layer of security andcomplexity to each transaction that dramaticallyreduces fraud.”

Financial information stored on existing paymentcards’ magnetic stripes can be easily cloned andused to make counterfeit cards. What’s more, thesignatures can be easily forged and are rarely everused to verify the identity of someone making atransaction.

Chip and PIN cards are considerably more secure. First, an embedded microchip encrypts each transaction at point of sale and then requires a unique four-digit code to be entered to completethe transaction, similar to withdrawing money fromthe ATM. The microchip coupled with the PIN maketampering and counterfeiting the cards, along withstealing personal financial data, nearly impossible.

The combination of chip and PIN clearly providesAmerican consumers the security they deserve.Now, it’s time for the banks and credit card compa -nies to issue cards outfitted with this technology.

To learn more about efforts underway to help secure your everyday transactions, visitwww.protectmydata.org.

Get the Facts MYTH: Current payment security measuresare keeping consumers safe. FACT: Not really. Card fraud is still a majorissue that affects millions of Americans eachyear. The United States accounted for 47 per -cent of worldwide card fraud losses accordingto recent reports.

MYTH: The United States is a global leaderin credit card security, using the most secureand cutting-edge technology available. FACT: The United States is lagging behind. In fact, the United States is the last G-20nation to issue chip-equipped cards. U.S.banks and credit card companies have beenslow to provide consumers with chip and PIN pro tections that are commonplace around the world.

MYTH: Chip-equipped cards without PINrequirements provide sufficient security. FACT: Chip-equipped cards that rely onsigna ture validation and not PIN technologydo not fully protect consumers. Only the chipand PIN combination offers a two-step verifica - tion process that is nearly impossible to clone.

MYTH: Consumers are moving away fromcredit cards. FACT: While payment alternatives likeApplePay and other mobile options are slowlyentering the market, nearly three-quarters ofall Americans had at least one credit card in 2014. Moreover, not every Americanconsumer has the means to use more sophis -ticated mobile payment options and others —particularly consumers with more modestmeans — rely on paying with credit at times.

MYTH: The implementation of chip and PIN will drive hackers online, rendering in-store protections like PINs or signatures lessimportant.FACT: Brick and mortar stores remain a bed -rock component of the American economy andthe retail industry. Most Americans still rely on offline shopping for the majority of theirretail purchases.

Put The Brakes On Skin Damage And Beat The

Summer Heat

(NAPSI)—The average American spends more than 101 minutes a day in a car according to Harvard Health Watch. That’s 37,935 hours or more than four years in a person’s lifetime. Yet millions of drivers do not realize that UVA rays infi l-trate glass in cars and if unprotected con-tribute to long term skin damage which can lead to aging, sagging skin or even cancer. Taking preventative measures such as in-stalling LLumar® window tint on vehicle windows and using sunscreen every day help protect against skin damage. According to a study in Dermatologic Therapy1, “The need for protection from the sun is widely advocated, but consum-ers generally associate such protection with the occasional extreme exposure and tend to ignore the risk...Daily protection can reduce lifetime exposure by 50 per-cent or more.” Dr. Dee Anna Glaser, vice-chair of the dermatology department at St. Louis Uni-versity says, “UVA rays penetrate deep into the skin and can silently accelerate the aging process, cause wrinkles and even skin cancer.” Unlike UVB rays, which cre-ate immediate effects like blistering and burns, UVA rays create long term damage that is not immediately noticeable. “That’s why many people don’t realize their skin is getting damaged from sitting near car windows or even at their desks at work,” says Dr. Glaser. A St. Louis University Medical School study2 revealed that nearly 53 percent of skin cancers in the US occur on the left side of the body. Researchers believe the increase in left-sided skin cancers may be from exposure to UVA radiation while driving. Notably the trend reverses to the right side of the body in countries where drivers sit on the right side of the car. According to Susan Butler, MD, a dermatologist and micrographic surgeon at the California Skin Institute research shows there is a trend in “wrinkles, leath-ering, sagging, brown ‘age’ spots and even skin cancers” on the left side of patients’ faces. The more time subjects spend driv-ing a vehicle, the more severe their photo damage (sun-induced skin damage) on the left side.” Window Tint Benefi ts and Facts• Blocks 99 percent* of harmful ultravio-let rays which may cause long term, cu-mulative skin damage.• Darkened rear SUV, truck and minivan windows provide privacy but are less re-sistant to harmful UV rays than window fi lm. Clear window tint such as LLumar AIR Series installed on privacy glass of-fers optimal protection.• Helps reduce the interior surface temper-ature of a vehicle helping keep passengers

A Tradition of Cool Summer FunOn a warm sunny day, not much can beat the cool

taste of a delicious ice cream bar. It probably evenharkens memories of your youth, but the origins of thisfavorite frozen treat date back much further.

It all started in 1920, when Harry Burt created adelicious chocolate coating compatible with ice cream.After his daughter said it was too messy to eat, Burtfroze sticks into the ice cream to make a handle, creatingthe first Good Humor bar, which was also the first icecream on a stick.

That year, Burt outfitted a fleet of 12 street vendingtrucks with freezers and bells from which to sell hiscreations, and the original ice cream truck was born.Operators of those trucks — and many other mobilevehicles for years ahead — came to be known as thebeloved Good Humor Man. In those early days, theywere required to undergo a rigorous three-day training,in which they learned to tip their hats to ladies andsalute gentlemen.

Today, the line of classic Good Humor sandwiches,bars and cones are available in several varieties nation -wide in individually-packed single servings at conven -ience stores, drug stores, news stands, parks, trucks,kiosks and enter tainment venues, or in multipacks atgrocery stores.

FAMILY FEATURES

Summer is the season when many of the best childhood memo -ries are made. That’s why introducing future gener ations totreasured pastimes is an ideal way to ensure classic summermoments live on for years to come.

Though the world has changed over the years, the simple pursuits ofsummers past can and should still live on. The long, warm days of theseason are meant for making memories, and there’s no better way todo so than by revisiting “throwback” summer pleasures.

Reminiscing on the Road Whether traveling across the country or state, a road trip is a terrific

way to bond with family while exploring the world away from home.When parents take their children on a road trip to their favorite child -hood vacation spots, they can explore how the sites have changed overtime, and gain a whole new experience through their kids’ eyes.

Long trips on the road don’t have to require the latest technologylike cell phones and tablets. To relieve boredom, parents can teachtheir kids classic road trip games from their youth like I spy, 20questions or the license plate game. These timeless activities are a great way to have fun, pass time and encourage family bonding.

Nearby Neighborhood FunCloser to home, there are undoubtedly various ways to fill the

steamy days of summer, which many of today’s parents rememberfondly from their own youth. As shocking as it may be for kids todayto learn that summer fun can exist beyond video games, tablets and other electronic devices, “unplugged” family fun may be just what the season calls for.

In many areas, families can find fun summer activities right in theirown backyards. The joys of entrepreneurship with a lemonade stand at the end of the driveway can be just as fun for today’s children asthey were for their parents. Making and sharing “summer camp” stylefriendship bracelets creates memories. Creating a colorful world in thedriveway or on the sidewalk with chalk can also bring out a child’sartistic side, and can lead to other summertime favorites likehopscotch with friends.

Refreshing Summer SnacksNothing says summer like enjoying a frozen treat on a hot day, and

many gener ations have fond memories of chasing the Good HumorMan driving that iconic Good Humor Truck down the street. Knownas the original ice cream truck brand, Good Humor has been reim -agining America’s favorite candies and desserts as frozen treats formore than 90 years.

Just as other classic summertime traditions have modernized overthe years, so has Good Humor. This year, the brand is introducing anew six-pack of Good Humor Girl Scouts Thin Mints bars, inspired by the classic Thin Mint cookie, which is available in grocery storesnationwide. Other classic favorites have also been updated to offerfans more of what they love, from more strawberry flavor in the Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake bar to more OREO pieces in the Good Humor OREO bar to more peanut butter swirl in the Good Humor REESE’S peanut butter cup.

Dream vacations come in all shapes andsizes and are unique to every traveler. Forsome, a dream vacation may be visitingevery ballpark across the country. For

others, it could be exploring the national parks intheir state or island hopping on a cruise in theCaribbean.

According to a recent Bank of America survey, 72 percent of Americans say they haven’t takentheir dream vacation because they think it is tooexpensive. The good news is that dream vacationsaren’t always out of reach — savvy planning andthe right rewards credit card can help make thatdream vacation a reality.

Travel expert and Food Network host Ted Allen, has partnered with Bank ofAmerica to provide tips on how to be smart about your finances when planning yourdream vacation.

Plan Ahead & SaveFor 63 percent of Americans, paying for a dream vacation comes out of their ownpockets, but experiencing the time of your life doesn’t have to put a dent in your wallet.

Ted’s secret to creating an affordable and enjoyable getaway is to plan ahead. Bymonitoring airfare and hotel rates a few months out, you can often save hundreds ofdollars by avoiding last minute price surges. The same goes for traveling off season:by going on a trip during off-peak times, you can stretch your budget further and avoid the crowds.

Additionally, Ted recommends using a credit card that rewards you for purchasesyou make throughout the year.

“I love using my BankAmericard Travel Rewards credit card because I earn unlimited1.5 points per dollar on all purchases every time, everywhere, and since my pointsdon’t expire, I can save up my points to help offset my future travel expenses.

“And it’s great when I travel overseas because there are no foreign transaction fees!”noted Ted.

Dial into DealsTravelers are always looking to stretch their dollar even further when it comes toplanning vacations. Whether searching online or receiving tips from a travel agent, 59 percent of Americans hunt for package deals or all-inclusive options when planningtheir dream vacation.

To maintain your travel budget, Ted also stresses the importance of establishing apersonal connection with travel representatives.

“Confirming travel details over the phone and discussing logistics with the airlinedirectly establish relationships that helps open doors for hidden upgrades and deals,putting you steps closer to keeping your dream vacation on budget.”

“With a simple phone call you may be able to find out if you can upgrade your seator check your bag for free,” added Ted.

The same rule applies once you arrive at your hotel. Befriend the staff as localemployees have the best access to hidden gems and a pulse on local culture. So thenext time you travel away from home, ask the hotel staff where they enjoy eating andwhat sites they recommend visiting — you may walk away with an unforgettableexperience that’s easy on the wallet.

Be a Savvy SplurgerA dream vacation can lead many travelers to spend extra on everything from activitiesto rentals. In fact, 46 percent of Americans report that while vacationing they getcaught up in the experience and are more likely to splurge. Specifically, almost aquarter of Americans said they are most likely to spend more on food and beverageswhile on vacation.

“I always encourage every traveler to venture out and try as many flavors as possibleto truly get a taste of the local culture,” shared Ted.
