You can bet that Libby Costello, Sophia Denison-Johnston, Brooke Downes and Adrienne Smith were exhausted, achy and very, very tired when they landed their row boat in Honolulu. They had been rowing nonstop after leaving San Francisco 34 days, 14 hours and 11 minutes earlier in hopes of break-

ing the record for the 2,400 nautical mile journey. How did they do it? They rowed in 2-hour paired shifts for 24 hours a day, averaging about an hour and a half of sleep per day. That’s apparently faster than any team of rowers have ever achieved and it is likely they’ll make it into the Guinness Book of World Records.

We’re in our third summer of the Covid pandemic and another winter is coming. Think about that statement for a minute. Did any of us imagine, back in the summer of 2020, that the problems would still be with us in 2022? I for one was betting that once the vaccines started coming out, Covid would surely be vanquished. Oh, how wrong I was. Many of us settled in during that first year of Covid isolation, missing meetings, dinners out and friends. We just didn’t dare go out, even if we had been the first to qualify for the vaccines. We didn’t host family during the holidays, and some of us had ham sandwiches for Thanksgiving dinner. But it hasn’t been all bad. We learned how to attend meetings and talk to family on Zoom, we checked in with friends by phone

August 11, 2022

and we figured out how to place curbside grocery orders on the computer. During warm weather we took walks and saw outdoor concerts and sometimes even dared to visit certain businesses when they weren’t busy. Already, however, upon realizing that this is our third summer with Covid and with the vaccine boosters continuing to show iffy results for long-term efficacy, I’m no longer taking bets about when it will all go away. I’m thinking ahead to winter when everyone goes back inside and the risk of infection increases. Some thoughts on getting through this coming winter: Increase the level of exercise you get. Hunt for interesting YouTube videos of exercise and yoga for seniors. Find ways to address anxiety. Double up on communication with others to avoid isolation. Find a new hobby. Buy a few new houseplants. Splurge on home delivery of groceries now and then, instead of curbside pickup. What do you think? Can we do it again? Can we make it through another Covid winter?

Beatles’ catalog for $47 million, outbidding Paul McCartney himself. In the years afterward, the catalog was estimated to be worth in excess of $1 billion.

On Aug. 11, 1973, “American Graffiti,” a nostalgic coming-of-age tale steeped in the car-centric culture of suburban California, is released in theaters. The movie went on to become a sleeper hit. On Aug. 12, 1953, less than one year after the United States tested its first hydrogen bomb, the Soviets detonate a 400-kiloton device in Kazakhstan. Known as the “Layer Cake,” the bomb was fueled by layers of uranium and lithium deuteride, a hydrogen isotope. On Aug. 13, 1781, Patriot forces led by Col. William Harden and Brig. Gen.Francis Marion, known as the “Swamp Fox,” lure British commander Maj. Thomas Fraser and his 450 soldiers into an ambush at Parker’s Ferry, near Charleston, South Carolina. Marion had earned his nickname for his ability to “outfox” his opponents in the swamps of the South Carolina backcountry. On Aug. 14, 1985, Michael Jackson takes control of the publishing rights to the vast majority of the

On Aug. 15, 1961, two days after sealing off free passage between East and West Berlin with barbed wire, East German authorities begin building a wall -- the Berlin Wall -- to permanently close off access to the West. For the next 28 years, the wall was a literal “iron curtain” dividing Europe. On Aug. 16, 1954, Sports Illustrated, a new magazine dedicated to covering sports, appears on American newsstands with a cover photo of Milwaukee Braves third baseman Eddie Mathews. Sports Illustrated did not make money for most of its first decade but eventually became the undisputed leader in American sports media. On Aug. 17, 1993, Random House agrees to pay Gen. Colin Powell an advance of about $6 million for the rights to his autobiography, “My American Journey.” Powell’s book became the fastest-selling book in Random House history.

Could it be PTSD? Do you ever wonder if you possibly have PTSD? The Department of Veterans Affairs has created a very short PTSD screening webpage designed to see whether any symptoms you have could be related to post-traumatic stress disorder. The screening test consists of five short questions. At the end you’ll click to submit and get your score. It’s worth doing the screening if you have any doubts or concerns after going through a traumatic or

life-threatening event. PTSD can arrive either immediately after an event or later, or even come and go. It can affect anyone of any age. There’s no set pattern, but there are certain symptoms, and that’s where this short screening comes into play. Go online to www.ptsd.va.gov/ screen and click to “Start Screen.” No, you don’t need to give any personal information or even sign in. When you get to the end of the questions, click on “Next Steps” and see the information that’s offered, including the phone number for immediate help: 800-2738255. Press 1 if you’re a veteran. Or you can text 838255. The instructions suggest you take a screenshot or print the score page to take with you to a health-care provider. Probably

not a bad idea, because it gives your provider a place to begin. For more information about PTSD, go to www.ptsd.va.gov/ understand/what/ptsd_basics. asp. Scroll down to the three information blocks and explore what they offer. “Understanding PTSD and PTSD Treatment” (PDF) is a 16-page guide to PTSD basics and is a good place to get a handle on it. Remember that this screening isn’t a true diagnosis. Only a real provider can diagnose PTSD, but this can give you a start in the right direction if you have concerns. Remember, too, that there are quite a few different treatments for PTSD, and the sooner you begin, the sooner you’ll feel better. You’re not alone. (c) 2022 King Features Synd., Inc.
