You will see workers over the weekend (weather permitting) getting this done. The outdoor pool is currently on target to reopen at the end of June. Any updates on this reopening date will be communicated at the time we receive them.

THE HANDIEST BIT OF INFORMATION AT HERITAGE!
Diane Ecker has released the latest version of our Resident Directory. It’s an invaluable resource where you can find a wealth of information about our residents. You should have received it in a recent email blast.
On page one of the directory, you will find the “Useful Contact Numbers.” 
The directory section (pages 2-42) of the directory is grouped by street name, then house number. The streets are in alphabetical order. 
The index section (page 43-57) is sorted by Last Name, First Name. 
The final two pages of the directory contain a Heritage street map for your reference , and a blank directory registration form to share with your neighbors who aren’t in the directory and might want to participate. Please do not give anyone a copy of your directory. They will need to register with Diane first and she will email them a directory.
Make sure to check over your information and send Diane an email if you have any changes/additions/corrections to be made. Please note that each resident selected the information they wanted published in the directory. Also, if you notice a listing in the Directory where a resident has moved, please let her know so she can update my records.

Chimps talk to each other? Maybe.

New research suggests wild chimpanzees have developed a far more nuanced communication system than previously realized, using several mechanisms that combine their vocalizations to create new meaning. These elements of chimpanzee communication, described in a study published Friday in the journal Science Advances, resemble some of the fundamental building blocks of human language.

Oh no! Not southwest!

Tickets bought on or after May 28th will NOT include the famous "Two Bags Fly Free" that has been Southwest's mantra for 20 years. No mention of the cost per bag yet, but some airlines are charging as much as $50. Wait and see.

Hard to believe, but true.

Some of us older folks might remember this. In the 1950s. One of the duties of the nurses, - besides waking you up three times a night - was to daily go around to patient rooms to see if anyone needed some Camels or maybe some Pall Malls. Yup... in addition to candy and snacks, folks could not only get cigarettes, but they could smoke while in bed in the hospital. Good times. (cough cough)

Sell By - Use By - Best By - Freeze By - You Could Die

Depending on where you live, you may see different dates on your food and each has a different purpose. Here’s a bit of clarity based on information from the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) and FSIS.2

  • Best If Used By/Before: This is a quality assurance date and serves as a “suggestion” for when the taste and quality of food are at their peak. It is not a purchase or safety date.
  • Use By: This is the suggested date by when you should eat the food. But just because it’s a day or two past the use-by date doesn’t mean that consuming it will make you sick, although you should evaluate the quality of the food yourself after this time. It is not a safety date, except when used on infant formula.
  • Sell By: This is not a safety date, but rather a date for retailers that helps them determine how long an item should remain on the shelf. According to the IFT, “one-third of a product’s shelf-life remains after the sell-by date for the consumer to use at home.”2
  • Freeze By: According to the USDA, this date indicates when a product should be frozen to maintain peak quality. It is not a purchase or safety date.
