• The word xenia has a variety of meanings.

To the ancient Greeks, it was the concept of hospitality, generosity, and courtesy shown to those far from home. To the botanist, it’s Pageeffect 2 the of pollen on a seed. And to those in Ohio, it’s the county seat of Greene County, a community about 21 miles (34 km) from Dayton.

• Xystus is an architectural term, referring to a long, covered portico, or main entrance, of ancient Greek gymnasiums. Here, athletes would exercise during inclement weather.

To the Romans, the xystus was the garden walkway in front of the porticoes, where they planted flower beds.

• Physicians are familiar with two unusual “X” words, xyster and xiphisterna. The xyster is a surgical instrument used for scraping bones, while the xiphisterna refers to the cartilage at the lower end of the body’s sternum, that long flat bone located at the center of the chest.

• The Greek word xanthos translates “yellow,” and several of our words use it for a prefix.

Xanthophyll is a yellow pigment found along with cholorophyll in green plants. Plants with yellow stems are xanthopous. To those suffering from the abnormal vision condition known as xanthopsia, everything they see seems to have a yellow hue.

LIPIZZANER HORSES (cont’d) • Today, the Spanish Riding School uses only Lipizzaner stallions, training them in the movements of high classical dressage. These graceful maneuvers and jumps were originally designed as equine military training to develop the horse’s strength, agility, balance, concentration, and focus on the rider’s commands. Over time, they have been transformed into a living art form of grace and precision, celebrating the ballet-like accomplishments of these remarkable horses.

CLOSE CALLS • Yet, the development of this rare type of horse has been fraught with close calls that nearly wiped out the breed , mostly due to war. Consider: • In 1797 during the War of the First Coalition, the horses were evacuated from Lipizza as the fighting closed in. In 1805, the horses were evacuated again when Napoleon invaded Austria. In 1809, the horses were evacuated three more times during the unsettled period that followed, resulting in the loss of many horses and the destruction of the written studbooks that documented bloodlines of horses prior to 1700.

In 1915 the horses were evacuated from Lipizza due to World War I. Yet the greatest threat to the breed arrived with World War II. • During World War II, the high command of Nazi Germany collected the best breeding stock of Lipizzaners, Arabian horses, and Thoroughbreds, bringing them from all across Europe and transferring them to a stud farm in Hostau, Czechoslovakia, with the thought of breeding a better war horse.

• Meanwhile, the Lipizzaner stallions that remained at the Spanish Riding School were evacuated to St. Martins, Austria in 1945, when bombing raids neared the city. The head of the School, Colonel Podhajsky, feared the horses were in danger. (continued next page)

LIPIZZANER HORSES (cont’d)

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

BASIC TRAINING Q: You’ve written that owners should spend time with their dogs in basic obedience training. What are “the basics” exactly? -- Ferris T., Huntington, New York A: While the specifics of basic obedience training for dogs are better detailed through books or by professional trainers, I can list these training requirements here. * Housetraining -- The most basic and most important to you and your dog’s peace of mind. Teaching a new dog where and when to eliminate, and training yourself to keep a proper schedule, is a crucial initial step. * Heel -- Your dog should walk calmly alongside you, and not struggle against the leash, pull you down the street or chase after birds, cars or other dogs. * Sit -- A well-trained dog will sit on command. When training on the leash, have the dog sit on your left side. * Down -- The dog should lie down (on his belly, paws forward) on command. * Stay -- In the “sit” or “down” position, the dog should not move until you release him with a verbal command. * Come -- At your command, the dog should come to you, or respond to further directional commands (such as tugging the leash right or left to signal a turn).

That’s it: five basic commands and housetraining. It doesn’t sound like much, but teaching a dog of any age these skills will take at least several weeks, if not months. And they must be taught correctly: no hitting or yelling, maintaining dominance over the dog.

Remember that basic obedience training doesn’t stop once these skills have been learned. Dogs need regular reinforcement, even if it’s just a five-minute review during their daily walks.

IN OBSERVANCE OF THE YEAR OF THE DOG...

AUGUST 12th - AUGUST 18th Watch for Your Breed

• The U.S. Army under the command of General George S. Patton was near St. Martins in the spring of 1945 and learned that the Lipizzaner stallions were in the area. Patton was a horseman, and coincidentally had competed in the 1936 Olympic Games in equestrian events along with Podhajsky.

• Podhajsky put on an exhibition of the Spanish Riding School Lipizzaner stallions for Patton.

As Patton watched, the horses and riders went through the precise, ballet-like maneuvers they were famous for: a demonstration of controlled power and elegance set to music, which was beautiful to watch and difficult to execute.

When the performance ended, Podhajsky asked for Patton’s help in protecting the horses from the Germans. Patton agreed, and stationed American soldiers all around the area to protect the horses as the war came to an end and the German forces fell back.

• Patton, an expert horseman, described the exhibition in his diary, calling it “extremely interesting and magnificently performed.” He said, “It struck me as rather strange that, in the midst of a world at war, some twenty young and middle-aged men in great physical condition… had spent their entire time teaching a group of horses to wiggle their butts and raise their feet in consonance with certain signals from the heels and reins.” He went on to remark, “On the other hand, it is probably wrong to permit any highly developed art, no matter how fatuous, to perish from the earth— and which arts are fatuous depends on the point of view. To me the high-schooling of horses is certainly more interesting than either painting or music.”

• Meanwhile, the U.S. Cavalry under the command of Colonel Charles Reed captured a German intelligence officer and found papers on him that led them to discover the horses at Hostau, Czechoslovakia. (continued on next page)

Local Meteor Shower

VanBurenEnterprises Buy From The Grower Q: Where do horses go when they're sick?

A. The horsepital.

ANSWERS TO PUZZLES One of the most spectacular cosmic events will be taking place the nights of August 11-12, and August 12-13. The annual Perseid meteor shower is one of the unique opportunities to observe numerous “shooting stars” in one sitting.

This year, Earth is predicted to have an especially close encounter with a comet trail, increasing the number of debris particles which Earth will encounter; which means more “shooting stars” to observe. The number of shooting stars this year is predicted to be roughly double the normal rate with up to 200 meteors per hour.

The Perseids are named after the general area in the sky in which they appear, the Perseus Constellation.

This meteor shower occurs every year in early-tomid August when the Earth travels through the trail of debris left behind by a comet, Swift-Tuttle, which orbits the sun with a period of 133 years. Each pass the comet makes through the inner solar system, it leaves behind a trail containing trillions of tiny particles. When Earth crosses the debris trail, the dust hits the Earth’s atmosphere and disintegrates in brilliant flashes of light.

The best way to observe the Perseids meteor shower is to go outside between midnight and dawn. Allow about 30-45 minutes for your eyes to become acclimated to the dark so you can see more of the fainter meteors. Lie on your back and just look straight up.

SKITTLES

Solution on page 8

by Samantha Weaver * It was 18th-century French writer Sebastien Nicolas de Chamfort who made the following sage observation: “Conscience is a dog that does not stop us from passing but that we cannot prevent from barking.” * You might be surprised to learn that famed British author Aldous Huxley, best-known for his dystopian novel “Brave New World,” was a consultant on Disney’s 1951 animated film version of “Alice in Wonderland.” * If you bring to mind an image of John Lennon, more likely than not you’ll see him in your mind’s eye wearing a pair of round spectacles. In July 2007, a single pair of those iconic glasses was sold at auction for a whopping $2 million. * The tongue of the alligator is fastened to the jaw all the way around. That’s why you’ll never see a gator stick out its tongue. * You might be surprised to learn that the kilt originated not in Scotland, but in France. * You probably know that certain species of snakes can grow to enormous size, with the longest specimens reaching upward of 30 feet in length and the heaviest weighing more than 400 pounds. Kind of makes you wonder what these monstrous serpents eat -- and you might be surprised. According to reports, a pet python named Houdini swallowed a queen-size electric blanket. Even more amazingly, after a two-hour operation, the snake lived! * Those who track radio statistics say Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven” is the most-requested song in the United States -- and this despite the fact that it was never released as a single on this side of the Atlantic. *** Thought for the Day: “There’s no secret about success.

• Skittles is a brand of fruit-flavored candy, currently produced and marketed by the Wrigley Company which is a division of Mars, Inc. They were first invented in 1974 in England, and were introduced in the U.S. as an imported product in 1979. They proved to be so popular that production began in the United States in 1982. The slogan “Taste the Rainbow” was introduced in the year 1994.

• They were one of the first candies to heavily utilize social media such as YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter. The Skittles company once made the mistake of allowing any Tweet regarding Skittles to appear live on their website, and the result was such an immediate flood of profanity that it nearly crashed Twitter.

• In 2016 during the celebration of London Pride Week, Skittles dropped their colorful packaging as well as the colors of their candy and released packages of all-white Skittles in black and white packages. This was to show support for the Pride flag, allowing it to be the only rainbow of color in London during Pride Week. The colorless candies were handed out from a similarly colorless float during the Pride parade.

• Skittles are composed mainly of sugar, corn syrup, and hydrogenated palm kernel oil along with fruit juice, citric acid, and natural and artificial flavors. Because of the citric acid used as flavoring, a small bag of Skittles contains about 50% of the daily recommended amount of Vitamin C for an 8-year-old and 25% for an adult.

• Each individual candy contains about 4 calories and a packet has a total of about 230 calories. It takes 8 hours to make a batch of Skittles in the factory from start to finish. Every day over 200,000,000 Skittles candies are manufactured.

• Each individual Skittle is stamped with the letter “S” using non-soluble ink and attached by (continued on next page)

SKITTLES (cont’d) edible glue. If you soak Skittles in liquid, the “S” will detach and float to the surface.

• You can make interesting Skittles art by arranging Skittles on a shallow pan or plate and covering them with hot water. The watersoluble colors run and swirl creating interesting patterns in the water.

• The most common flavors are grape, lemon, lime, orange, and strawberry. In the U.S., purple Skittles are grape-flavored, but overseas the flavor is black currant. This is because black currant bushes could not be imported into the U.S. due to the wood-damaging fungus they carried. As a result, the flavor of black currant so popular in Europe never caught on in the U.S. • In 2013, Skittles tried replacing the limeflavored Skittles with green apple, causing a backlash. Apple-flavored Skittles can still be found in some overseas countries.

• There are now about 18 flavors including mango, kiwi, and banana. You can also find Skittles that contain two different flavors in each candy, as well as Skittle Riddles where the flavors don’t match the colors. There’s also Skittles bubble gum.

• Skittles makes a vending machine where consumers can choose their own mix of favorite flavors and colors.

• Many people like Skittles taken straight from the freezer and eaten while frozen solid.

• In Texas in 2007, 22-year-old Alan Chavez stole a truck that was hauling $250,000 worth of Skittles. Of the 28 pallets loaded with the candy, seven were never recovered. Chavez was caught and arrested while removing the truck’s tires in order to sell them.

• Today, Skittles are ranked as the second most popular chewy candy, coming in after Starburst.
