by Kathy Wolfe Back in 1965, Jewel Akens had a Billboard top hit and gold record with “Let Me Tell You about the Birds and the Bees.” This week, Tidbits brings you a variety of facts about these creatures.

• Out of close to 10,000 varieties of birds, the largest is the African ostrich, with an average height of 8 ft.. This flightless bird weighs between 220 and 350 lbs. It has the largest eye of any land animal, measuring almost 2 inches across. An ostrich egg measures nearly 7 inches across and weighs around 4 lbs., enough to make about 11 omelets.

• A cheetah can run at speeds up to 70 mph, but it’s not the fastest animal on Earth. A spinetailed swift can fly at speeds of 106 mph, but one bird is even faster. The peregrine falcon can reach 200 mph as it dives down while hunting prey. The fastest bird on land is the ostrich, who can hustle along at 43 mph.

• The world’s smallest bird is the bee hummingbird, just a bit more than 2 inches in size, and weighing .07 of an ounce, about as much as a lump of sugar. Native to Cuba, this tiny creature can flap its wings between 50 and 80 times per second.

• T o safeguard your home from woodpeckers, consider the reasons these creatures peck. The fast drumming by the male is an attempt to attract a mate and announce to other males in the area that this is his territory. He usually chooses a hollow branch for this purpose, but will opt for a house’s gutter or loose siding.

They also peck searching for insects.

If you see holes in your siding, you could very well have insects living in the boards that the bird found.

Your siding is also an attractive place for a nest, and it’s nothing for the woodpecker to drill a hole large enough for entry. It can be beneficial to install a nest box on the side of your house or fence to keep them from pecking into the siding.

• The woodpecker has a very thick skull and a built-in “shock-absorber system” in its neck and rib cage to withstand the constant pounding.

• Filling up your birdbath today? The Audubon Society recommends a depth of about 2 inches. Any less makes it too difficult for the bird, and deeper water frightens them.

• Not every group of birds is called a flock. A group of pelicans is known as a squadron. Other unusual group names include a charm of hummingbirds, a tiding of magpies, a muster of peacocks, a conspiracy of ravens, a bouquet of pheasants, a murmuration of starlings, and a murder of crows..

A young apprentice optometrist recently got careless and got his hand caught in the lens grinder. He wasn't seriously hurt, but he certainly made a spectacle of himself.

From the InsIde out

A rose blossoms from the inside out. One of the most difficult transitions in life is to not be controlled by events, circumstances, and emotions. All of these things can cover us like a wet blanket. When we experience a “Come to Jesus” moment, our core is transformed to push change from the inside out. “He who believes in Me,” as the Scripture said, “From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.” (John 7:38). Our attitudes are rooted in our core. Our words and actions are rooted in our attitudes. The results in our life follow an inside out flow from our core to attitudes to words to actions to results. Instead of asking, “Can God?” I will say, “GOD CAN!!!” A positive attitude comes from my core. Don’t let depression, anxieties, and perceptions control you; believe, trust, and persevere from your innermost being as you grow closer to God.

•West Baden Springs, Indiana was the birthplace of a very famous Bird who migrated to Boston, Massachusetts in 1979.

The 6’ 9” tall Bird, also called a Larry Bird, played his entire basketball career with the Boston Celtics, leading them to three NBA championships. He was also a 12-time NBA All-Star and league MVP three times. After participating on the 1992 Olympic “Dream Team,” the Bird retired as a player and entered into coaching.

• There are about 20,000 different species of bees in the world. Bumblebees pollinate crops and plants, while honeybees produce honey from the pollen and nectar of the plants they pollinate. A honeybee’s wings flap at the rate of 11,000 times per minute, producing that familiar buzzing sound.

• One tablespoon of honey requires the nectar of about 2,000 flowers. One pound of honey is produced by 550 bees collecting nectar from 2.5 million flowers. A typical honeybee can carry the pollen from 500 flowers in one th trip.

• It’s a long trip south every year for the North American Black Warbler, a small bird about 6 in. long, weighing only 0.39 oz. . Every year, it migrates a distance of nearly 2,500 miles that is covered in a nonstop flight that takes close to 90 hours. They accomplish this by doubling their body mass as migration time nears. The warbler’s average speed on the journey is 27 mph.

• Three types of bees occupy each colony – the queen, the worker bee, and the drone.

All drones are male and their only job is to mate with the queen. Female bees are the only ones that work, collecting pollen and nectar and cleaning the hive. The queen’s only job is to lay eggs, and she can lay about 3,000 eggs in one day. Only the queen bee can reproduce and all worker bees are sterile.

• If you think poisonous snakes are deadly, consider the fact that bees kill more people annually than snakes.

Of all deaths caused by animals, bee stings rank highest, causing 75% of those deaths compared to about 5% for snakes.

• T he stinger on the average bumblebee is .3125 of an inch long. Bees store their venom in a sac attached to the stinger. Only the female bee stings, and uses 21 muscles to accomplish this task. Contrary to popular belief, not every bee dies when it stings.

Honeybees, whose stingers have barbs or hooks, die after stinging because as the bee tries to fly away, part of the abdomen gets caught and is ripped away. Bumblebees have smooth stingers that do not get caught in the victim’s skin, enabling them to fly away and sting again.

• Back in 1985, a Virginia man named Jed Shaner set a world record by piling 42 lbs. of bees on his body. But that wasn’t enough for this thirdgeneration beekeeper. Two months later, he upped the amount to 48 lbs, then followed up six years later with an astounding 80 lbs. – about 640,000 bees – several inches thick covering his body. He missed his goal of 100 lbs, and although he endured several stings, said, “It’s not as bad as you think.” That’s what he thinks!

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel ● On Sept. 14, 1901, U.S. President William McKinley dies after being shot twice by a deranged anarchist. One bullet deflected off a suit button, but the other entered his stomach, passed through the kidneys and lodged in his back. When he was operated on, doctors failed to find the bullet, and gangrene soon spread throughout his body. ● On Sept. 15, 1935, German Jews are stripped of their citizenship, reducing them to mere “subjects” of the state. German Jews were excluded from a host of high-profile vocations, from public office to journalism, radio, theater, film and teaching -- even farming. Jews found it difficult to buy food, as stores would not admit Jewish customers. ● On Sept. 9, 1942, in the first and only air attack on the U.S. mainland in the war, a Japanese floatplane drops incendiary bombs on Oregon’s Mount Emily, setting fire to a state forest. The president immediately called for a news blackout for the sake of morale.

A-1 Home Healthcare Proudly Presents

Senior News Line

by Rick Struve

The ‘Independence at Home’ Series Part Three – The Living Space There comes that point in the life of a senior when the thought of moving into an assisted living complex or a skilled nursing facility becomes a reality. Quite often, you can postpone that move and remain independent at home with some basic adjustments to your environment.

The Living Room

For people that experience weakness or joint pain, furniture can become a terrific obstacle. Luckily, there are many helpful devices that will assist a person that suffers from any number of ailments that make even simple movements difficult.

A common problem is difficulty in standing up from a couch, recliner or even a basic chair. This problem can become worse if the piece of furniture is very low to the ground.

You should make sure to have couches or chairs that are higher off the ground, firm, with a good armrest to assist with standing.

For people that enjoy the comfort of a recliner, a lift chair is a great option. An electric lift chair uses a remote to not only help the person into a standing position, but can also recline in order to get their feet up and help with leg swelling. It is also possible that insurance will help cover some of the expenses involved if a qualified patient has a prescription from their doctor.

There are also good products made for normal chairs or couches. One of these products is a tray table which can easily be attached to the furniture that has the ability to swing out of the way when not in use. They make some of these trays to include a gripping handle at the top in order to give the person a place to hold on when getting into a standing position to gain more leverage.

A good cushion is an easy alternative to give you a little height on a chair, as even a couple inches can make a difference. You can also add chair risers, which are plastic cones that go under the legs of the furniture to add 4-6” in height.

If you feel unsteady while walking in your home, a wheeled walker is a welcome item to have. Not only will it give you stability, you can add attachments to assist with normal activities, such as a tray, basket, pouch or cup holder. Also available are wheeled walkers with seats. Besides having a place to sit when you grow tired of walking, the seat makes a great place to carry items from room to room – most of these styles of walkers will have a carrying pouch under the seat as well.

There are some people that require the use of a wheelchair in their home. Quite often, older homes will have narrow doors that make it difficult or impossible to get a wheelchair through. Before getting a carpenter to widen your doors, a possible item to give a little more entry space is a door hinge expander. Once in place, these will allow the door to swing out of the way to make more room to fit your wheelchair through.

CLARA BARTON

September 10th 2013

December 22– January 19

Dodging someone, Capricorn? So is everyone else. Hiding out will get you nowhere. It’s time for a confrontation. A business transaction goes off without a hitch.

January 20– February 18

You give, and you give, and you give some more, but come on, Aquarius, the well is about dry. Take time out to replenish your spirits. Start with a walk in the park.

February 19– March 20

Parting is such sweet sorrow, or is it, Pisces? If a relationship has soured to the point of no return, it may be time to put an end to it once and for all.

March 21– April 19

Youngsters start throwing around hints at home.

Don’t take the bait, Aries.

This is one objective they need to obtain on their own. A work project comes to an end.

April 20– May 20

Tricky Taurus. You’re a master at turning things around and making them work in your favor. A supervisor is counting on you to work your magic in a meeting.

May 21– June 21 Cunning you are not, Gemini, but when pressed this week, you will show the world that you can be. A lucky guess brings rewards to a friend.

June 22– July 22

Business proposals begin to stack up. Some are better than others. Do your homework, Cancer.

A phone call from home brings good news.

July 23– August 22 Savvy investments and small budget cuts get you back in the black and ensure you stay there.

Celebrate with a mentor, Leo. An inquiry begins.

August 23– September 22 Diversity is the name of the game when it comes to planning a special event. Know your audience and select various activities that will keep their interest, Virgo.

September 23– October 22

Dreary days and cooler temperatures bring on the urge to retreat. Don’t, Libra.

Young ones are counting on you to lead the way this week.

October 23– November 21

A friend makes their choice crystal clear, and it does not involve you.

Don’t take it personally, Scorpio. There are other plans in the work that will involve you.

November 22– December 21

Greed takes hold at home, and conflict ensues. Jump in and teach the art of compromise, Sagittarius.

A dead-line is extended & resources are increased.

The name of Clara Barton might not be familiar to some, but her accomplishments live on throughout the world today. The American Red Cross has provided compassionate care to millions around the world during times of disaster, as well as support to the families of the members of our armed services. Follow the life of this courageous woman who founded this organization.

• Born in 1821, by the age of four, Clara was reading and spelling complicated words.

It was no surprise that she was already a Massachusetts school teacher at age 17. By 24, she had founded her own school. A few years later, she temporarily left the field to pursue writing and language classes at a New York college.

• After completion of her further education, Clara opened another school, which rapidly grew to 600 attendees under her leadership.

When the school board chose a man over her to head the school, her career took another route. Clara accepted a job in Washington, D.C. as a clerk in the U.S. Patent Office, the first woman to receive a significant clerkship with the federal government.

• It was during her time in Washington that the Civil War broke out. Troops poured into the capital city, and Clara began offering assistance to hungry and wounded servicemen.

She campaigned for donations for bedding, clothing, and medical supplies. Having always had an instinctual feel for nursing, having cared for her seriously-ill brother for two years when she was just 11, she began caring for the wounded, traveling to the battlefields.

• As the battles raged, she drove wagons to the sites loaded with supplies, earning her the name “Angel of the Battlefield.” She was a nurse, a cook, and source of comfort, reading to soldiers, writing letters for them, and offering a sympathetic ear.

• As the war drew to a close, Clara began working diligently to identify 13,000 of the prisoners who had died in the legendary Andersonville Confederate prison camp and marking their graves. Following her efforts, thousands of letters began pouring in asking for her help in locating missing loved ones. Over the next four years, Clara operated the Office of Correspondence with Friends of the Missing Men of the U.S. Army, answering over 63,000 letters, and identifying more than 22,000 men. The Red Cross’ tracing service had its roots in Clara’s activity, helping million locate missing loved ones over the decades.

• Visiting Switzerland after the war, Clara learned of the European Red Cross effort, and upon her return to the States, rallied supporters to establish an American organization. She led the group for the next 23 years, expanding the function to disaster relief, assisting victims of a destructive Michigan forest fire as the first official project. She and 50 volunteers were the first relief workers at the site of the devastating 1889 Johnstown, Pennsylvania flood, which claimed over 2,000 lives. Her final project was providing relief to survivors of a hurricane and tidal wave that struck Galveston, Texas in 1900, causing more than 6,000 deaths. Clara was 79 years old. She retired from the Red Cross in 1904, and passed away eight years later. Born on Christmas Day, 1821, she died on Good Friday, 1912.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

by Samantha Weaver

● Food trucks are rapidly gaining popularity all over the country, both at fairs and at stand-alone food-truck bazaars. You might be surprised to learn that the origin of the food truck goes all the way back to 1872. At that time, in Providence, R.I., all the restaurants closed at 8 every night, leaving factory workers who got off late without a place to eat. At the time, a man named Walter Scott (obviously not Sir Walter Scott) was working as a pushcart peddler, selling odds and ends out of a glorified wheelbarrow. Like a true American entrepreneur, Scott saw a need and moved to fill it. He put a small stove in a horse-drawn wagon and began roaming the streets late at night, selling sandwiches, hard-boiled eggs and coffee.

His success spurred imitators, and soon the city was teeming with the “afterhours lunchwagons.” *** Thought for the Day: “I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.”

Chasing Away Deer

4045 Crestview Dr Solon

Q: I’m having trouble with deer sneaking into my yard overnight and chewing up the lower branches of my trees and eating other plants in my garden. How can I get rid of them, other than sitting up all night so I can scare them off? -- Renee in Columbus, Ga. A: Here are a few ways to discourage deer from making your yard their salad bar: --Move gardens away from shady or wooded areas. Deer tend to stay out of sight using shaded, tree-laden areas for cover. They’ll lurk near vegetable gardens that are close to such areas.

--Reduce or move plants that deer love to eat, like leafy shrubs and tender green plants. Try mixing in plants they don’t like, such as snapdragons, begonia or holly with your vegetables or flowers to make the area less palatable.

--Consider fencing. If all else fails, barrier fencing can keep most deer off of your property. The drawbacks are the cost of installing and maintaining the fence, and no longer having an unrestricted view beyond your property. Deer can leap as high as 9 feet, meaning fencing needs to be at least as high.

--Try a homemade solution. Many homeowners hang bars of soap from tree branches or fenceposts around the property, betting that the perfume or the soap itself will repel deer.

--Use a commercial repellent. Deer repellent sprays are available that can be applied to the edges of your property throughout the gardening season.

HOME TIP: Place bars of soap in the toes of old knee-high nylon stockings and tie the stockings to tree limbs, as a homemade deer repellent.
