CHEESEBURGERS

by Kathy Wolfe Since September 18th is National Cheeseburger Day, Tidbits brings you the facts and figures on one of the world’s favorite meals.

• The average American eats about three burgers a week, which translates to nearly 50 billion burgers consumed across the nation every year. About 70% of the beef served in commercial restaurants is made into burgers.

• You might think cheeseburgers have been around just as long as hamburgers, but not so! In the late 1700s, German sailors and immigrants brought the “Hamburg Steak” (an entrée with origins in Hamburg, Germany) to New York City. The meat patty between two pieces of bread was a popular item along the New York harbor. The city’s famous Delmonico’s Restaurant featured a hamburger on their menu in 1834. The hamburger made its way out west, appearing on the menu of San Fernando, California’s Clipper restaurant from 1872 to 1884. Yet it seems that the hamburger didn’t look like it does today until 1891, when Oscar Bilby served burgers on a bun. The 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair gave the hamburger widespread attention. turn the page for more!

• The first records of cheeseburgers were in the 1920s. A Pasadena restaurant, the Rite Spot, claimed it was the first to serve a cheeseburger in 1926, when the owner’s 16-year-old son came up with the idea. A 1928 menu from a Los Angeles restaurant called O’Dell’s has a cheeseburger listed. Kaelin’s Restaurant in Louisville, Kentucky, says they invented the item in 1934. But the first person to apply for use of the word “cheeseburger” as a trademark was Louis Ballast of Denver’s Humpty Dumpty Drive-In. Ballast registered the name in 1935 and was awarded a trademark, but never made any claims on it. Steak ‘n Shake claims their restaurant’s founder, Gus Belt, was the first to apply for a trademark in the 1930s.

• Jimmy Buffett’s popular 1978 hit “Cheeseburger in Paradise” led to a chain of successful restaurants. The song was inspired by a boat trip gone bad taken

by Buffett and friends. Bad weather prevented the boat from landing as planned, and Buffett was forced to subsist on canned food and peanut butter, while constantly craving a cheeseburger. When he finally landed on the island of Tortola, his cravings were finally satisfied. There are now 19 Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurants, although Buffett divested himself of his financial interest in the chain in 2012.

• Ray Kroc was already in his late 50’s when he bought the McDonald’s company from the two McDonald brothers in 1961.

Now the most successful fast food chain in the world, more than 75 burgers are sold every second of every day worldwide.

McDonald’s hires about a million workers in America every year; in fact, about one in every eight American workers has been employed by McDonald’s at one time or another. Five and a half million head of cattle are needed to prepare the burgers served at the restaurants in one year.

TOOLS 4 LIFE

BY DR. JIM COYLE

Boot Camp

No matter what you hear, where you turn, or what you watch, the message is loud and clear: The World is in a mess. The Bible is very clear on predicting the times we are in and the times to come. The picture the world is painting isn’t pretty for tomorrow, but the portrait of God is being hand painted for our victory. We need to equip ourselves and train our kids for the battle we are in right now and the battle we are facing tomorrow. Here are a few things we should know and do: know the battleground, prepare yourself, know your enemy, use the Word, fight, and rest at the end of the day. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. We will learn how to use our head, our heart, and our hands to walk forward in the fight of our lives. Be encouraged as we face circumstances where we will need each other and the Holy Spirit to keep moving forward in the face of battle.

• In 1967, McDonald’s introduced “two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun,” the ever popular Big Mac. This cheeseburger with a middle slice of bread to help prevent spillage had two previous names, the Aristocrat and the Blue Ribbon Burger. When neither name seemed to catch on, a 21-yearold secretary in McDonald’s corporate advertising department, Esther Glickstein Rose, came up with the name Big Mac. The burger made its debut in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, with a selling price of 45 cents. By the following year, all the McDonald’s restaurants had added it to their menu.

• Of the more than 13,000 Burger Kings in 79 countries, about 66% of those are in the United States. More than 11 million people eat at a Burger King somewhere in the world every day. The world’s third largest hamburger chain, BK got its start in Miami, Florida in 1953 as InstaBurger King. The Whopper was added to the menu in 1957.

• Counting your calories? A Burger King cheeseburger has 360, and McDonald’s has 313. If you want a McD’s double cheeseburger, you’ll consume 459 calories. There are 550 calories in a Big Mac in the United States. In the United Kingdom, that burger is worth only 490 calories, while in Malaysia that number is 484. The lowest Big Mac calorie count is found in Chile at 478, with Japan have the highest at 557. It takes about 153 minutes of brisk walking to burn off the calories contained in a Big Mac. A slice of cheddar cheese adds about 113 calories to an ordinary burger.

The United States’ National POW/MIA Recognition Day is observed across the nation on the third Friday of September each year. Many Americans take the time to remember those who were prisoners of war (POW) and those who are missing in action (MIA), as well as their families.

A lady walks into a building and says to the clerk, "I'd like a cheeseburger drink and fries." The clerk says, "Um, this is a library."

The lady then whispers, "Oh, sorry, I'd like a cheesebuer drink and fries."

• In case an ordinary cheeseburger isn’t your “cup of tea,” the Texas-based restaurant chain known as the Twisted Root Burger Company offers a variety of unusual game burgers, including venison, kangaroo, beaver, ostrich, emu, boar, alligator, and camel burgers.

• How about a cheeseburger that uses glazed doughnuts in place of a bun?

Nicknamed The Luther after singer/ songwriter Luther Vandross, who had a weakness for this burger, it can total between 800 and 1,500 calories. You can cut the caloric intake by eliminating the chocolate-covered bacon.

• If you’re feeling really hungry, stop by the BGR Burger Joint in Washington, D.C. and order up The 9-Pounder. This cheeseburger’s final weight is actually 15.4 lbs. after being topped with two heads of lettuce, eight tomatoes, three onions, and four whole pickles. Although it can feed between 10 and 15 people, if one person can eat the whole thing in one sitting, it’s free. The restaurant generously includes a free bottle of Maalox.

• New York City’s Serendipity 3 restaurant offers Le Burger Extravagant, a Japanese Wagyu beef burger infused with white truffle butter, seasoned with smoked Pacific sea salt, topped with hand-formed cheddar cheese, black truffles, and a fried quail egg. The bun is topped with caviar and a diamondencrusted toothpick. This lunch will set you back $295, and be sure to call 48 hours in advance to order.

• How can Las Vegas’ Burger Brasserie charge $777 for their 777 Burger? It’s a combination of Kobe beef and Maine lobster topped with caramelized onions, imported Brie cheese, crispy prosciutto, and 100-year aged balsamic vinegar.

The price is a little high because this entrée includes a bottle of Dom Perignon champagne.

In 2012, a Minnesota casino cooked up the world’s largest cheeseburger, which weighed in at 2,014 lbs. (913.5 kg). It took a crane to lift it onto the bun that required seven hours of baking. It was officially recorded by Guinness, after which the burger was sliced and given to guests for free.

FAMOUS CANADIANS:

THE PROPERTY BROTHERS

There’s more than meets the eye when it comes to Canada’s favorite reality stars, The Property Brothers. Here are the details on these handsome real estate experts.

• Each week, HGTV viewers across the U.S. and Canada tune in to watch one or all of Drew and Jonathan Scott’s three hit shows, The Property Brothers, Buying & Selling, or Brother vs. Brother. Ratings on The Property Brothers have broken all of HGTV’s records.

With Drew as the real estate agent and Jonathan as remodeling contractor, the 6’4” twins help first-time home buyers find and transform fixer-uppers into their dream home.

Jonathan generates a 3-D computer design of what the renovated home will look like, digitally knocking down walls and adding new furnishings. They help the new homeowners stay within their remodeling budget because they’re budget-conscious themselves. As Jonathan jokes, “We’re Scottish, so we’re cheap!”

• Born and raised in Vancouver, B.C., the brothers were entrepreneurs at a very young age. When they turned seven, their father told them they needed to get a job, and the innovative pair started a decorative coat hanger business. They made the hangers themselves and sold them to local businesses, but before long, a Japanese company was buying crates of their hangers.

• At age 18, the twins bought their first house and renovated it. As college freshmen, they flipped the house for a $50,000 profit.

Although real estate seemed to be a good fit for them, the twins both tried their hand at acting first. Drew had a role in season six of Smallville, and Jonathan was in the TV series The X-Files for a short time.

• In college, Jonathan focused on business management while Drew majored in kinesiology and mathematics.

Drew participated in a comedy troupe called the Raving Thespians, while Jonathan was a 13-time Canadian karate champion as well as concentrating his efforts on magic and illusion, becoming well-known as one of the world’s youngest international illusionists.

• The twins began investing in real estate as a way to fund various film projects they were interested in. When the property ventures began to pay off, they turned it into their successful series. Yet Drew still found time to produce and direct several movie shorts and made-for-TV movies.

• As if their three successful TV series aren’t enough, a new series is in the works, one which focuses on their own family home renovation in Las Vegas. The Scott brothers are also collaborating on a new book and developing their own furniture line. Their company Scott Real Estate, Inc. has offices in Vancouver, Calgary, and Las Vegas.

• Although the show features Drew as the real estate expert, both are licensed agents.

Jonathan is also a licensed contractor, as well as maintaining a popular award-winning illusionist act in Las Vegas.

• As part of their Scottish heritage, both brothers play the bagpipes and visit family in Scotland on a regular basis.

• Drew and Jonathan were both voted Entertainment Tonight’s 2011 Hottest Canadian TV Bachelors.

• The pair focus their philanthropic efforts on volunteering in the oncology ward at the Calgary, Alberta Children’s Hospital.

A cook and an insurance salesman teamed up in 1921 in Wichita, Kansas, to found White Castle, considered America’s first fast food chain. The cook, Walt Anderson, is credited as being the inventor of the hamburger bun. White Castle was the first burger chain to sell a billion burgers. Today there are 420 White Castles throughout the Midwest

● On Sept. 22, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln issues a preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, which sets a date (Jan. 1, 1863) for the freedom of more than 3 million black slaves in the United States and recasts the Civil War as a fight against slavery. ● On Sept. 23, 1908, a game between the New York Giants and Chicago Cubs ends in 1-1 tie after a controversial call at second base. The officials ruled that Giants first baseman Fred Merkle was out because he failed to touch second base, a call that has been disputed ever since. ● On Sept. 27, 1930, Atlanta golfer Bobby Jones wins his fourth major tournament of the year, making him the first person ever to win the “Grand Slam” of golf. Jones had the picture-perfect swing of every golfer’s dreams, despite never having taken a lesson. ● On Sept. 25, 1959, mob assassins shoot and kill Anthony Carfano, known as Little Augie Pisano, in New York City on the orders of crime figure Meyer Lansky. Lansky was estimated to have accumulated as much as $300 million in ill-gotten gains by the 1970s.

He had an eighth-grade education, which put him far ahead of many other criminals. ● On Sept. 24, 1975, “Three Days of the Condor,” a political thriller starring Robert Redford, opens in theaters. Redford played a low-level C.I.A. employee being stalked by an assassin. The film was based on the novel “Six Days of the Condor” by James Grady. (c) 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Senior News Line

by Matilda Charles

News We Can Use

Here are two items of importance to seniors.

FLU SHOTS

Late September or early October is not too soon to get your flu shot. Now would be a good time to plan for it.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the flu season can start as early as the beginning of October.

Did you know: There’s a special highdose flu vaccine for seniors age 65 and older? The reason is that the regular dose doesn’t always protect us because our immune system often is weakened.

This vaccine is four times as strong, setting up a better immune response.

Did you know: That Medicare will pay for the vaccine? (As will most insurance under the Affordable Care Act.) Did you know: You don’t have to go to your doctor to get the flu shot. There are numerous other locations. To find a flu shot in your area, begin scouting the Internet at sites like cvs.com or flushot.healthmap.org, or call your local pharmacy.

MEDICARE OPEN ENROLLMENT Open enrollment for Medicare begins Oct. 15 to change from the Original to an Advantage Plan, or vice versa. Don’t confuse this with the Health Insurance Marketplace, which opens enrollment a month later. As a Medicare beneficiary, it’s illegal for a Marketplace company to sell you a Marketplace plan, so don’t be taken in.

But there is a caveat: If you have a Marketplace plan and think you’ll sign up for Medicare later, beware that you might be subject to a lifelong penalty if you enroll late.

Because of the variety of situations (Marketplace versus Medicare, Part A versus Parts A and B), your best bet is to get advice from Medicare before the signup period begins if you’re now moving from Marketplace to Medicare.

Call them at 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800633-4227).

Protecting Apartment from Bad Water Leak

Q: I heard a horror story from an old college friend about her apartment’s pipes springing a leak in the wintertime, and the maintenance crew not addressing it for days. I don’t know what I would do in the same situation. Do you have any advice?

HO N ME IO IAT BUIL DERS ASSOC

STRANGE BUT TRUE

by Samantha Weaver

● It was 19th-century Cuban poet and revolutionary Jose Marti who made the following sage observation: “Barricades of ideas are worth more than barricades of stones.” ● When you think of dangerous occupations, the jobs that immediately come to mind are probably firefighter and police officer. You might be surprised to learn, then, that in New York City, the fatality rate for garbage collectors is twice as high as it is for members of the NYPD. ● A pregnant goldfish is known as a twit. ● The U.S. Open, which takes place at the end of summer every year, is one of the oldest tennis championships in the world, beginning in 1881 with a men’s singles competition.

The modern competition, of course, now includes men’s and women’s singles, men’s and women’s doubles and mixed doubles.

That’s a lot of tennis -- and a lot of balls.

During the two weeks of the championship, approximately 70,000 tennis balls are used. ● In 2012, at a hospital in Ireland, twin girls set a Guinness World Record when they were born 87 days apart -- and they confounded medical experts’ gloomy prognosis by both surviving. ● If you make a serious study of Hungarian gypsies, you probably already know that you’re a tziganologist. ● The flag of Ireland and the flag of Cote d’Ivoire are nearly identical, with vertical stripes of green, white and orange. There are only two minor differences: 1) The Irish flag has the green stripe on the left and the orange stripe on the right, while Cote d’Ivoire has the two colors reversed; and 2) the Irish flag is slightly longer. (c) 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

A: You definitely can minimize damage from a broken pipe or uncontrolled water leak in your apartment, even before the maintenance person arrives. Here are steps to follow: ● Review your apartment’s lease and information packet today. These papers include instructions on contacting leasing management or maintenance in an emergency. ● In emergencies such as water leaks, apartment communities normally specify that maintenance will be on site within 24 hours, and often much sooner. Take note of their exact time frames. ● Familiarize yourself with the apartment’s water shutoff valves. You will at least have shutoffs under the sink (for the hot and cold water) and behind/beside the toilet. There also should be a shutoff for the water heater (if it’s inside your apartment). ● If a water leak occurs, locate the source of the leak as quickly as possible. Close the nearest shutoff valve, if possible. Put a bucket underneath the leak and use towels to sop up any spilled water. ● Contact the leasing office or the maintenance number immediately.

Describe the problem, its location and the time that the leak occurred. ● If it’s after hours (and these emergencies always seem to happen after hours), the on-call maintenance person should call you back, usually within an hour, to provide further instructions.

What if there’s no shutoff for the pipe that’s leaking? The most important thing is to try and minimize the water damage until the water can be shut off (sometimes the shutoff is located elsewhere in the apartment building and can only be accessed by maintenance). Keep a bucket under the area and empty it before it gets too full.

What if maintenance takes days to address the leak? Keep a record of dates and times of the calls you made, and when the repair was made. Meantime, if maintenance can’t get to the building for some reason -- such as a snowstorm -- ask the on-call person if the shutoff is accessible so that you can stop the water from flowing in.

HOME TIP: Apartment residents need to be just as familiar as homeowners with the locations of water shutoff valves and electrical panel shutoffs, so they can react quickly in a maintenance emergency.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

● If you get a gray-colored film on your utensils after they come out of the dishwasher, try cleaning them with a cream of tartar paste. Also clean out the filter regularly. ● Have you nailed down your holiday shopping list yet? Many people find it distasteful to see Christmas and other holiday items out so early, but studies show that the earlier you start, the less you spend. Likely because you are not rushed and are able to take advantage of sales and to shop smart. ● Use cola to marinate your meat! The acids in the soda pop make meat nice and tender before cooking, and sugar actually can give you a nice caramel flavor on the outside, too. You can use a cola bath for meat on the grill or search cookbooks or Internet sites for great slow-cooker recipes. ● “I love my blender and use it all the time, but I don’t always have time to clean the blades properly when I’m in a rush. There’s is a spot under the blades that’s hard to clean if the remains of my smoothie get dried on. I have found a way to clean it, though ... with rice! A couple of spoonfuls in the otherwise clean blender, and the rice buffs any residue right off. I even use the rice powder in a homemade facial mask that makes my skin feel great!” -- D.W. in Oregon Send your tips to Now Here’s a Tip, c/o King Features Weekly Service, P.O.
