Gaetz said that the class is mostly one-on-one training with each person. They teach weight training and cardio exercises, as well as yoga and water exercises, to name a few. Allard added that they will go on field trips to a Big Y super- market, where a nutritionist will take them through the store and show them what foods would be best for them. Gaetz noted that many of the people who take part in the pro- gram only do so once, but they often end up getting a YMCA membership afterwards anyway. “I haven’t seen anyone who doesn’t enjoy it,” said Gaetz, “Most people come in with a positive attitude already, but I have seen a few who come in feeling very negative. I’m amazed that by the time they complete the program it’s like they’re a different person.” Both Allard and Gaetz agreed that the comradery exhibited between the survivors in the program is huge for their motiva- tion. “One of the biggest things for the participants is that they are with other survivors and there’s a comradery and very strong relationships are formed,” said Allard, “They’re not in a medical environment. They’re in an environment of healthy wellness and healthy living.” The program is free for all adult cancer survivors and patients looking to rebuild muscle mass, strength, and flexibility. It will be funded by the Jane Wensley Memorial Livestrong Golf Tournament on Saturday, Sept. 7. 100 percent of proceeds from the tournament will benefit the Westfield YMCA’s Livestrong Program.

Death penalty questionable as a deterrent to mass killing By COLLEEN LONG Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is calling for new death penalty legislation as an answer to hate crimes and mass killings. But whether that would deter shooters is question- able — especially since most don’t live to face trial. More than half the perpetrators of mass shootings since 2006 have ended up dead at the scene of their crimes, either killed by others or dying by suicide, according to a database compiled by The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University. Death penalty scholars and psychologists say killers motivat- ed by ideology are unlikely to be deterred by punishment. Most of them are willing to die or understand the risk and prepare for it. Some want the fame that an execution could potentially bring to their cause. “In fact, in the case of terrorism, it might be worse than that because you have the very real possibility of creating martyrs,” said Gary LaFree, head of the Department of Criminology and Some skeptical as Trump prepares Criminal Justice at the University of Maryland, and co-founder of the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism.

Lots of new lunchboxes to kick off the new school year By KATIE WORKMAN Associated Press A new lunchbox is one of the more fun back-to-school pur- chases you can make, and a cool one can be a bright spot in your kid’s day. These days, there are loads of choices, some simple, some with lots of bells and whistles. “There are so many more options for insulation than there were even a few years ago, which means parents have a lot more possibilities for what they can pack,” says Cori Snyder Schuman, founder of the Family Food Fest event. “Since my daughter doesn’t eat sandwiches, and prefers hot food, this has made my life much easier.” Lisa Freedman, lifestyle director at thekitchn.com, says lunchboxes “have so many smart features these days — like walls packed with gel that stays cool for hours, special com- partments that are truly leakproof, expandable sections and more.” From bags to boxes, from high tech to organic fabric, you and your kid will have fun exploring the options. Just some of the latest from lunchbox designers: 1. Vaya Life Tyffyn Lunchbox These are sleek little numbers with many different looks; an ombre pink finish, a flower-studded Bloom version, or whim- sical unicorns prancing all around, to name a few. Each vacu- um-insulated lunchbox has metal inner walls and two contain- ers that keep warm food warm and cold food cold. (You do have to pick a lane — both containers need to be working on warm or cold together.) There is an insert to separate foods within the containers. The whole thing snaps closed with metal latches to prevent leakage, and will keep your food at the desired and safe temperature for several hours. The inner con- tainers are dishwasher safe. And each one comes with a color- ful insulated bag mat which acts as a wipe-able placemat. A This 2019 photo shows a collection of new lunchboxes in New York. (Cheyenne M.

(AP) — The makers of “Supernatural” and “Arrow” say they’re bringing the CW shows to a which allows several to be used, and they won’t fall out. Oft- close at the right time. used books may require clear tape to strengthen the paper. -- “You don’t want to be the last person at a party, even if it’s the best party on the planet,” said Jared Padalecki, who’s Paul W., via email paired with co-star Jensen Ackles as the evil-busting Winchester brothers on “Supernatural.” Its 15th season, debuting Oct. 10, will be its last. “Arrow” producer Marc Guggenheim also compared the superhero show to a gala that’s still going strong. Its eighth and final season with star Stephen Amell begins Oct. 15. “We all would much prefer to go out on a high note, and go out while people are still talking about the show rather than being, like, ‘That show’s still on the air?’” he said. While the “Supernatural” stars felt it was time to end their long run, Ackles told a TV critics meeting Sunday that taping the final episodes will be difficult. “I’m just hoping to stave off the emotion until at least episode 19, 18, somewhere in there,” he said. “And then who knows what’s going to happen? It’s going to be a big shift in a lot of our lives.” CW President Mark Pedowitz saluted the 15-season run as a “remarkable achievement.” “As we always said ... when they were ready to stop, we will stop. And for them and for Stephen Amell on ‘Arrow,’ these shows will go out the way they were supposed to go,” he said. “But if you can convince them to come back, I’m open.” Ackles speculated this may just be a break in the “Supernatural” journey, although CW’s attempts at spinoffs haven’t succeeded. “Am I saying there’s something in the works? No. Am I saying I would be open to having a conversation about this in the future? What is the harm in that?” said Ackles, who plans to take his character’s well-worn boots with him as a souve- nir. “Arrow” star Amell was asked how to square his recent claim of a happy ending for the show, despite rumors that his character Oliver Queen, aka Green Arrow, doesn’t survive. “That’s not a spoiler,” Amell replied, prompting Guggenheim to jump in. While a character did tell Oliver that he’s going to die, the producer said, there’s more than one way to consider possible outcomes. He then proceeded to muddy the waters. “When I read about this online and people are asking us questions, they’re thinking about things in a very binary way, that the ending will either be X or Y. And all I would say is, I think we have Z planned,” Guggenheim said. In its final season, “Arrow” will be part of what CW is billing as the biggest crossover yet for its shows drawn from the world of DC Comics. Titled “Crisis on Infinite Earths,” the story will unfold from Dec. 8 to Jan. 14 on episodes of “Supergirl,” ″Batwoman,” ″The Flash,” ″Arrow” and “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow.” THE WESTFIELD NEWS WWW.THEWESTFIELDNEWS.COM WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 7, 2019 - PAGE 13
