It took five minutes of practice a day to make me a guitarist
I loved Emily Bratt's article (The one change that worked, I could never get fit – until I tried a 40-second plank every day, 5 May) because it served as a reminder that small changes can have a transformative impact. A year ago, at the age of 52, I started taking guitar lessons. I had always wanted to learn and had tried a few times over the years, but practising was a challenge. It always seemed too difficult and would take too much time. However, my approach this time was similar to Emily's. My guitar was always out and I committed to practise a minimum of five minutes every day. I easily had time for that, I reasoned. Over the year, five minutes has frequently become a lot more. But five minutes is my minimum. Next week, I have my first recital. My piece will not be perfect and I'll be one of the oldest players, but I will have accomplished something. Just do a little bit and be patient, Emily reminds us. I have come to realise, too, that whether it is five minutes of guitar practice, a 40-second plank or something else, that is the success. That is the accomplishment. That is something to celebrate. It feels good to celebrate at least one success a day.

Communities in Washington state wade into debate over adding fluoride to drinking water
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Three cities in southwest Washington have joined the list of communities nationally that have revisited the issue of adding cavity-preventing fluoride to drinking water. City council members in Longview plan to discuss the issue Thursday during a public debate-style workshop, Oregon Public Broadcasting reported. Battle Ground waded into the debate earlier this month, and the Camas City Council plans to hold a hearing in March. The meetings held or planned so far have all been informational only. The debate has gained new traction after a federal judge in California last year ordered the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to further regulate fluoride in drinking water because high levels could pose a risk to the intellectual development of children. It also comes as the U.S. Senate weighs President Donald Trump's nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to run the Department of Health and Human Services. Kennedy has said he wants the federal government to advise local governments against putting fluoride in their drinking water. More than 70% of the U.S. population that uses public drinking water systems has access to water with fluoride levels that prevent tooth decay, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. At a Jan. 6 Battle Ground City Council study session, Deputy Mayor Shane Bowman weighed the city's cost of spending between $10,000 and $15,000 a year on fluoridation against the outcomes of improved oral health for residents. 'I don't know if you've taken your kid to a pediatric dentist, but that's very minimal -- $10,000-$15,000 – when you think about the difference it is for the kids that maybe don't have the access to dental health,' Bowman said. Critics contend that adding fluoride to public drinking water is outdated and say its use should be a matter of personal choice.
