Many years ago, whenin dental school, the profes-sor was giving us a few point-ers on practice management.He referred to such things aswhether people would try tosave their teeth or just havethem removed. He a l sotalked about people choosingless expensive treatmentsover more ideal ones. Helinked it to what he called the“dental IQ” of the generalpopulation. If people as awhole in one area or anotherof the country had regulardental visits and repairedtheir teeth when necessary,rather than have them pulled,he would say they had a highdental IQ. If people realizedthe value of good dental

health and sought for it, theyhad a high dental IQ. Hewent on to brag how the mid-west and the east where theoriginal dental schools were

founded and where moreeducational opportunities andweal th were , people hadhigher dental IQ’s. He wenton to say that these peoplewould more readily acceptyour (the dentists) treatment

than people in the west .These people would brushbetter and maintain their den-tal work better as well. Hiscomments made me andabout twenty- five of wedental s tudents f rom thewestern states sink into ourseats a little when he told ushow low a dental IQ peoplein the areas where we weregoing to practice had in gen-eral. Not as bad as Arkan-sas , he sa id , where youwould be hard pressed tofind 10 teeth in most peoples’heads.

When I started to prac-tice I did find a difference indental IQ’s between peoplein Chicago and people inUtah. Utahan’s were muchlower. There were no socialprograms like Chips or Med-icaid to help with lower in-come people and families. Asthe years have passed, peopleare better about their dentalhealth in general.

Those without insur-

ance budget their income toinclude dental care. I believegenerally dentistry as a wholehas educated the public to thebenefits of good oral health.For social reasons peoplehave care more about theirsmile, their breath etc.

So bravo people ofUtah. You’ve come a longway in elevating your dentalIQ.

We know dry eye is not easyto deal with and that there aresome many treatment options outthere. It can be frustrating andconfusing at the same time. Oneof the treatments that work wellfor dry eye, and whole body healthin general, is that of Omega 3supplementation.

The most common form ofdry eye is due to dysfunction ofthe Meibomian glands in our eye-lids, which secrete the oil portionof our tear film. Omega 3’s, whichare anti-inflammatory in nature,help produce more of this crucialoil and a higher quality of oil thatis more liquid than butter in na-ture.

There are the two maintypes of omega-3 fatty acids: Thefirst type is long-chain omega-3fatty acids, EPA and DHA. These

are plentiful in fish and shellfish.Algae often provides only DHA.The second type is short-chainomega-3 fatty acids, ALA. Theseare found in plants, such as flax-

seed. Though beneficial, ALAomega-3 fatty acids have less po-tent health benefits than EPA andDHA. You’d have to eat a lot togain the same benefits as you dofrom fish.

Statistics from the MayoClinic’s website show that the av-

erage American consumes about0.1-0.2 grams of EPA and DHAdaily. The World Health Organi-zation recommends a daily intakeof 0.3-0.5 grams of EPA andDHA. PRN Dry Eye Omegaprovides you with 1.68 grams ofEPA and 0.56 grams of DHAdaily.

This is why we have begunoffering PRN Dry Eye OmegaBenefits to our patients. In a re-cent study 70% of patients usingPRN that had occasional symp-toms of dry eye were symptomfree after 60 days. Based on thisstudy PRN is offering a moneyback guarantee for patients whouse PRN for 60 days and do nothave any reduction in their dry eyesymptoms.

Tales Of The Old West

By “Doc” Hal Hickman

Cowboy Pride

The image most folkshave of the western “cowboy”is that of a grizzled, dunce-of-a-man, uncouth, unshaven, un-clean and just generally unbe-coming. What else can you ex-pect from a roughie who spendsall his day in a saddle, herdingsmelly cattle around? Right?

Well, most cowhands of

the old west might appear, onthe surface, to fit that stereotype,but in their eyes the image ofthese men and their attitudeswere nowhere near the type thatany dude would have expected.

There’s little questionthat the 44 or 45 caliber colt pis-tol strapped to his waist changeda man of the range – at least inhis own eyes. Cowboys wereaware of the image of lethalmanliness their guns gave them.This showed up especially whena cowboy paid a call on a girl,and they weighed themselves

down with guns, gunbelts,knives, and scabbards so shewould be impressed. It seemedto do the trick.

One friend of a cow-hand remembered a cowboy

relative returning from visitingone evening with a bandage onhis shooting hand. The friendpresumed the cow-puncher had

been wounded in a bar room gunfight, but learned later that hehad shot himself when a pho-tographer handed him a gun sothat he could take his picture andmake him look fierce for his galfriend.

His saddle, (his seat formost days) was made especiallyfor his frame and comfort and itheld most of the “tools of histrade” in handy saddle bags orstrapped behind. Some werefancy with Mexican silver orna-mentation, but most were juststrong, thick, tanned leather.

There were many varia-tions of chaps to cover his legs.Most range cowboys, those whorounded up herds or drove themto market had their chaps madeof heavy cowhide to protect theirshins and knees from the brush,cacti and manzanita they oftenhad to ride through.

The topper was exactlythat – the cowboy hat. Theyoften insisted on wearing hand-made boots – lose enough thattheir pants legs could stuff in-side. The same was true of theirhats. The various styles of theseoften depended on where thecowboy called home. The“sugar-loaf” sombrero re-sembled more of the Mexican

hat with its wide brim and tallcrown. This was popular in thesouthwest – especially NewMexico and Arizona. Rancheshere hired lots of vaqueros hascowhands and they adapted tothe sugar-loaf well.

Cowboys riding theplains of Kansas, Nebraska andeastern Colorado seemed to pre-fer the “Plainsman” – with anarrower brim and a crownmore common to easternbowlers.

Cowhands in Montana,Idaho, the Dakotas, and mid-west areas wore the “MontanaPeak” hat. Here the brim wasnarrowest of all with a peakedcrown, dented on four side atthe top.

Of course, Texans hadtheir own style. This was moreof the traditional cowboy hatmost folks associate with cow-hands. But in the original style,the “Texan” had an invertedbowl shape on top not a creasedone.

Most cowboys sawthemselves as a special breed.When not riding, they struttedwith pride, convinced that theywere the aristocrats of the range.An Englishman, coming from thefirmly-classed society of the islesbut visiting Texas one day, askeda ranch foreman “Is your mas-ter at home?” The cowboy,turned and spit some chaw onthe ground, then leveled a gazeat the dude and replied, “The#%&#$& hasn’t been born yet!”An eastern U.S. citizen travel-ing with the brit whispered tohim, “There is no use trying tobe overbearing with them, forthey will not stand the least as-sumption of superiority.”

“I Hate Hamlet”This witty Broadway

parody pokes fun at Shakespearehimself. Set in John Barrymore’sold apartment in New York City,the author’s real-life home at thetime, the play follows success-ful TV star Andrew Rally as hestruggles with taking on thedream role of Hamlet while deal-ing with a girlfriend who is keep-ing a firm grip on her chastityand playing host to the ghost ofJohn Barrymore, who, clothed asHamlet, has come back to earth forthe sole purpose of convincing Rallyto play the part. Real estate agent

Felicia convinces Rally tostay in the apartment andhold a seance.

Barrymore provesto be very convincing(even challenging Andrewto a sword fight) and An-drew decides to play Ham-let. Then a Hollywoodfriend shows up, offeringAndrew a new TV rolewith a large salary andfame, and Andrew isforced to choose between

Shakespeare, whom his girlfriendloves, and television, where he isloved by millions.

The play stars Trevor Mes-senger—whose animated perfor-mance in last summer’s “Vanya,

Sonya, Masha, and Spike!” had au-diences laughing all night. He’s joinedby a stellar cast of SUU-trained ac-tors Taylor Hall, Sceri Ivers, MayceeHam, and Lynn Hart.

“Little Shop of Horrors”This delectable sci-fi horror

musical comes alive with an electri-fying 1960s pop/rock score by leg-endary composers Alan Menken andHoward Ashman.

Seymour Krelborn is a meekand dejected assistant at a floral shopwho happens upon a strange plantwhich he affectionately names“Audrey II” after his crush at theshop. Little does he know that thisstrange plant will develop a soulful

R&B voice, a potty mouth and anunquenchable thirst for humanblood. As Audrey II grows biggerand meaner, the carnivorous plantpromises limitless fame and fortuneto Seymour, as long as he continues

providing a fresh supply ofblood. When it’s too late,Seymour discovers Audrey II’sextraterrestrial origins and histrue drive for world domination.

Olivia Sham stars asAudrey. She’s lent her formi-dable vocal talent to pastSimonFest musicals, and her im-pressive comedic gifts to her roleas Nina in the Center’s “Vanya,Sonya, Masha, and Spike.”Joining Olivia are some of thecream of SUU’s theatre crop:Joseph Price, Taylor Hall, Eliza

Carpenter, Zane Brady, and DevinAnderson!

men, and asked Lizzie to sitdown in a chair next to him.Remembering her incarcerationat Park barracksmade her heart race,she did not feardeath, but beinglocked up for want-ing to serve this great countrymade her angry. The anger shefelt dissipated quickly as thekindly judge asked her to tell him

why she was here. As they con-versed she relaxed, then feltcomfortable being with this kind

man, who although a judge, hadmade no judgmental aspersionstowards her. Lunch was orderedand brought in, as Lizzie sharedher story, during which time oneof the judges aides, who camein with a reminder of anotherappointment, left with a resched-uled time. The judge thanked

Lizzie for sharing her story andproceeded to fill out a bank draftin the amount of five dollars, toassist Lizzie in leaving town andout of his jurisdiction. Leavinghis office with a happy heart,and enormous respect, for thismagistrate who had treated herso kindly, Lizzie headed towardsthe train station hoping to headsomewhere a little warmer.

Belle of the Ball—CherryAlmond Cobbler CakeBy Bev Rankin, aka, TheBread Lady

Pie cherries, also knownas sour, tart or red cherries, arecommonly used in cherry pieand cherry desserts. They aresmaller and softer than thesweet cherries like the Bing,Queen Ann, etc., and definitelyhave an ancient origin. AncientRome enjoyed pie cherries butI think perhaps not in the sameway as we do nowadays. Be-cause pie cherries are tart, theyare perfectly pared in combi-nation with a cake or cobbler.

You don’t have to wait until“President’s Day” to make acherry pie or dessert. Cher-

ries can be used year round ina variety of ways. One of ourfavorite ways to use pie cher-ries in a recipe is what I callCherry Almond Cobbler Cake.While experimenting one daylast year, I decided that a cake,

crumble, cobbler combinationmight be just the thing…andsurprisingly enough, it was ahit with all who tried it. It issuch a simple dessert. Thisdessert takes only a few min-utes to whip up and a shorttime to bake. As my husbandsaid, “whoever makes this des-sert will be the belle of theball!”

Cherry Almond CobblerCake

1 large can cherry pie fill-ing

1-2/3 cups dry white oryellow cake mix

2 eggs½ cup milk¼ cup canola oil¼ teaspoon almond fla-

voring½ cup sliced almonds¼ or slightly more cup

crystal sugarEmpty large can of pie

cherry filling into an 8x10 glassdish which has been sprayedwith vegetable spray. In a me-dium bowl, mix dry cake mix,eggs, milk, oil and almond fla-voring. Mix until all incorpo-rated and smooth. Pour overcherry mixture, making sure

batter reaches out to all fourcorners of glass dish. Sprinklewith sliced almonds and crys-tal sugar. Bake at 350 degreesfor 30-35 minutes or untiltoothpick inserted in center ofcake comes out clean. Cakewill be browned nicely. Servewith ice cream or whippedcream. YUMMY

The only way to be 100%sure you will never get a virusor malware in your computer isto never use it – especially onthe internet. If you understandand can accept that basic con-cept, you will quickly realize thatwhat we need to do is to man-age the risks and do what wecan to minimize damage if aproblem does occur.

There are strategies thatavoid the worst problems. Donot engage with scammers thatcall you to tell you that yourcomputer has problems and youmust give them access or moneyto solve the non-existent prob-lems. Do not click on enticingpictures or links without know-ing exactly where those links willtake you and whether or notthose locations are dangerous.Do not download “free” stuffthat should not be free such asmovies, music or explicit pic-tures. All these actions have ahigh probability of adding harm-ful software to your computer.

Once those precautions aretaken, you still need protection.Hackers, scammers and othercriminals make a lot of moneyby damaging (or threatening todamage) your computer, yourfiles, your documents and pic-tures or your reputation. Youcan minimize many of thesethreats with the use of quality

Virus andMalwareProtection

protection software. These pro-tections fall into three main cat-egories that are separate butoverlap significantly. Malwareprotection finds and removesnon-destructive programs andfiles that can slow down yourcomputer, report what you door where you go on the internetor show you advertisements youdid not request or want. Anti-

Virus software finds and re-moves programs that can dam-age your files or operating sys-tem and degrade or destroy yourability to use your computer.Those same types of files canopen your computer to hackersthat can access, change or shareyour private files. They may alsobe able to access bank accountsand other financial informationor transactions. Firewalls aresystems that seek to preventhackers or the software they cre-ate from having access to yourcomputer and your information.

Security “suites” are de-signed to address some or all ofthese concerns while individualprograms address one or moreof the threats to your system anddata. Usually, the more robustthe protection, the greater thecost. An exception to this rule isthe fact that many quality pro-tection companies provide a freeversion of their basic protection.

Companies such as Avast,Malwarebytes and AVG providefairly good free protection in thehopes that many of their cus-tomers will eventually upgradeto even better products for whichthey will pay. The down-side tothe free software is that you willbe offered (and even pushed abit to buy) the upgrades on aregular basis, possibly even daily.

No matter which protec-tion software you install, it isimportant that you check regu-larly to make sure it is beingconstantly updated to protectagainst the approximated 400new daily threats that are be-ing created. Also, be sure thatyour software regularly does afull scan of your system ormake the effort to run it your-self at least once a week. Thisis important even if it runs in“real-time”, always checkingfor new threats, as most do.

Finally, be sure you havea good backup. It is best tohave one on an external harddrive and one in the cloud thatallows you to retrieve your fileseven if your computer is sto-len or destroyed orransomware encrypts your filesso you can’t use them. The off-site option saves unalteredcopies of your original files foryour retrieval in the case ofdisaster. So, as always, re-member to make sure you haveat least one backup (preferablytwo) of anything important toyou – especially when chang-ing your OS or buying a newcomputer.

Around The Senior CentersSigners of theDeclaration ofIndependence

Veterans’ Calendar F S Su M Tu W Th F S Su M

When celebrating the 4th

of July, hopefully, our heartswill turn towards the bravemen who not only fought forour independence but also tothose who were brave enoughto sign the Declaration of In-dependence. The 56 signersdeclared that their libertymeant much more than theirsecurity and we can honorthem by remembering whothey were and what they didfor us.

Paul Harvey on July 4,1974, wrote a commentaryabout the high price the mengave who signed the Declara-tion of Independence. Harveywrote:

· 5 were captured bythe British and tortured beforethey died.

· 12 had their homessacked and looted.

· Two of them losttheir sons in the Army; onehad two sons captured.

· Nine of the 56 diedin the War from its hardshipsor from its more merciful bul-lets.

· Signer CarterBraxton of Virginia lost hisproperty and fortune and diedin rags

· Thomas McKean ofDelaware was so harassed bythe enemy that he was forcedto move his family five timesin five months. He served inCongress without pay, hisfamily in poverty and in hid-

ing.· John Hart was driven

from his wife’s bedside whileshe was dying; their thirteenchildren fled in all directionsfor their lives. His fields andgristmill were laid waste. Formore than a year he lived inforests and caves and returnedhome after the war to find hiswife dead, his children gone,his properties gone. He died afew weeks later of exhaustionand a broken heart.

· “And for the Supportof this Declaration, with a firmreliance on the protection ofdivine providence, we mutu-ally pledge to each other ourLives, our Fortunes, and oursacred Honour,” the line abovethe 56 signatures read.

We can bring honor tothese men by using RelativeF i n d e r(www.relativefinder.org) tosearch through ourFamilySearch file to see if weare related to any of the origi-nal 56 signers. I was surprisedto find that I am related to 41of the 56 with BenjaminFranklin as my top match at2nd Cousin 7 times removed.Other notables on the list areSamuel Adams, John Hancock,John Adams, and ThomasJefferson. Sharing stories withour family about the lives thesemen lived is a wonderful wayto bring personal meaning toour celebration of the 4th ofJuly.
