Ferris Hills to Host May 10 ‘Aging & Engaging’ Talk
Community members are invited to Ferris Hills at West Lake on Friday, May 10, for a presentation called “Aging & Engaging: Benefits of Social Connection.”
Held in the independent living community’s Rayburn Hall at 3 p.m., the presentation will be given by Kim Van Orden, PhD. A clinical psychologist and an associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center, Van Orden is the principal investigator of The HOPE Lab (Helping Older People Engage) and co-director of the Rochester Roybal Center for Social Ties and Aging Research. In this presentation, she will describe reasons why attending to one’s “social health” is important and social connection is a form of medicine. She will discuss evidence-based strategies to increase quantity and quality of social connections. She will also share resources for audience members to take home, including tip sheets and places to learn more about topics discussed.
An affiliate of UR Medicine Thompson Health, Ferris Hills at West Lake is located on Peg Rayburn Drive in Canandaigua, with the campus accessed via either West Lake Road (County Road 16) or Middle Cheshire Road. No registration is necessary for the May 10 program but for more information, call 585-393-0410.

spectrumlocalnews.com Years of inconsistent weather have left some vineyards struggling. Last year's mid-May frost was far from the start of it for Finger Lake vineyards. One estate vineyard is keeping up with all of Mother Nature's changes.
The beauty of the Finger Lakes region is one perk of Alex Jankowski’s job at Wagner Vineyards State Winery.
“Relaxing. It’s always fun for me to get away from all the craziness,” Jankowski said, “It’s just so fascinating to me. I mean, I got into it because I love wine and I wanted to learn about how it’s made. And, yeah, you end up learning a lot about agriculture in the process." Read more.

Lincoln and Lee Highways
In 1912 the thrill of the automobile was just taking off. In 1913 a group decided that there should be a highway that could stretch across the continent, a good road, without tolls. This became the Lincoln Highway which ran from Times Square in New York, New York to Lincoln Park in San Francisco, California. Read More.
Anger Management
We’ve ALL been there. Sometimes things are going along just fine and then bam! Some jerk maneuvers his or her vehicle stupidly and you get so angry you want to bash his or her fender, or more. Someone knows just how to push your buttons and you feel like you want to explode. Nothing, absolutely nothing, can solve your problems and you really want to lash out at almost anything or anyone.
