Influenza This Year in Maine

December, 2018
Winter is coming and so is influenza. Last year we had a bad year and there was a lot of bad press about immunizations, so let's review this annual epidemic and what we know so far this year.
Radon is ubiquitous in our soils, gravels and rocks, but you can’t smell or taste it, even inside the house. It is a breakdown product from Uranium 236 and Radium 22, and is found all over Maine. Usually it is brought into a basement or house by air seeking the lower pressures there, through basement floor or walls, or up through fill or slabs from surrounding soil or rock. It also can contaminate water from drilled wells (not springs or other surface water), and thereby add to house contamination.
Mission is: to enrich our communities by coordinating volunteer drivers for those who do not drive, so they can more easily stay in their homes.
Vision is: that central Maine communities will be a place where people of all ages are able to enjoy meaningful lives while living in their homes.
Service Area is: the residents of Vienna, Fayette, Mount Vernon, Belgrade and Rome.
Service is: free transportation for adults for errands, exercise sessions, classes, medical appointments, shopping, socialization or volunteering.

Last month I promised to write about how individuals and families can make their habits healthier, starting with one of the hardest but most important of all, stopping smoking. Everybody knows that smoking is expensive and bad in all kinds of ways, but most smokers find it extremely hard to stop! That’s because one’s body becomes both habituated and usually addicted to smoking and the nicotine it delivers. I base the following suggestions on decades of trying to help 1000s of smokers kick the habit.
