by Janet Spencer Come along with Tidbits as we scrub up! HOW DOES SOAP WORK? • Oil and water don’t mix. They repel each other like opposite ends of a magnet. Your skin secretes oil called sebum. Splash water on your skin, and the oil repels the water and nothing gets very clean. That’s where soap comes in. But before we discuss why soap works, let us discuss what soap is. • Basically speaking, soap is oil plus alkali. For centuries, that meant fat plus lye. Colonists and pioneers saved fat scraps from their butcher blocks and dinner tables. They also saved the ashes from their fireplace, which they placed in a barrel with a spigot at the bottom. Water, poured over the ashes and left to soak, would form lye which was then drained off from the bottom. The fat scraps would be rendered in a vat over a fire, then the lye would be added. After much stirring and cooking, a chemical reaction would take place and soap was the result. Too much lye, and the soap would be harsh on the skin. Too much fat, and the soap would be greasy. • The newly formed soap would then be poured into boxes to harden and cure for several months. But why does a combination of fat and ash carry off dirt? Let us get out our microscopes. (continued next page)

SOAP (cont’d) • Water is a molecule composed of hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen end of the molecule has a positive charge, and the oxygen end is negatively charged. Oil, however, has neither a positive or negative charge, but carries a uniform electrical distribution. That’s why water and oil repel each other. Soap is actually a compound called sodium stearate. Sodium stearate has the properties of both oil and water: partly polar, partly non-polar. That is how it brings oil and water together. • A molecule of soap is shaped like a snake, with the head being the water-loving sodium compound, and the tail being the water-hating stearates. Add soap to water, and the tail end tries to get away from the water. Add something greasy to the water, and the tail end of the soap molecules rush to cling to the compatible polar charge of the grease molecules. The grease molecule bonds with the stearate tail, and floats away led by the water-loving sodium head. SOAP HISTORY • Around 1000 B.C., Romans performed animal sacrifices to the gods on Mount Sapo. The fat from the animals mixed with the ashes of the sacrificial fires. This mix of fat and alkali flowed down to the Tiber River and accumulated in the clay soils. Women washing clothing there found the clay seemed helped get things cleaner. FAST FACT • Individually wrapped cakes of soap were first manufactured in New York in 1830 by a soapmaking company called Colgate, now known for its toothpaste. Previously the merchant merely hacked a chunk off a huge block of soap.

A winner will be drawn from the correct entries for that issue. A $10.00 gift card will be sent to the winner. Have fun and look closely, Tommy is a little guy.

Serving those who Served

Help Kids Say ‘Thanks’ for Holiday Gifts Gifts, meals, activities, memories. It’s that time of the new year to share a big “thanks” to those who made the December holidays special for our families and kids. By doing so, we model to the youngest generation the habit of expressing appreciation to others. Hopefully they’ll grow into the “saying thanks” habit without our prodding. According to Amy Jaworsky, editor for the Hearst Corporation and mom of two school-age girls, 13 and 8: “Acknowledging someone’s generosity is a reminder to ourselves of all we have to be grateful for. The more we realize how lucky we are, the more apt we are to want to deserve it by being better people.” Good words for all, not just for kids. Teaching her daughters to express thanks to others started on a practical level when her oldest, Presley, turned 4. “I was standing in the background at gift-opening time at her birthday party when the eager guests circled the birthday girl. It felt like a feeding frenzy,” she says. “They closed in, and it moved fast. With all the excitement, Presley tore through the wrappings, so it was hard to get a complete list of who gave what.” That’s when Amy came up with an idea the following year to ask gift-givers to stand with her daughter while she opened their present, so she could snap a photo of them as they posed with the gift. Through the years, she has seen how both the giver and receiver feel special when they capture the moment together. When it comes time to say “thanks,” she has no worries making sure the right card is with the right gift. “I have the evidence in my camera,” she says. “I print out the photos and we mount them to simple cards with envelopes. As my daughters grow older, they can express a more detailed ‘thanks,’” she adds. Here are more saying “thank you” ideas: --If your child received a holiday gift from someone who wasn’t present, take a photo of your child enjoying building with the new blocks, dressing a new doll or shooting a puck with the new hockey stick. Print it, and mount it on a card with a personally written thank you. --Email or text a short video of your child saying “thanks” and using the gift. --Encourage your children to draw a picture of the gift. If they aren’t writing yet, let them dictate as you write their “thanks.”

* On Jan. 18, 1778, English explorer Captain James Cook becomes the first European to discover the Hawaiian Islands when he sails past the island of Oahu. Two days later, he landed at Waimea on the island of Kauai and named the island chain the Sandwich Islands, in honor of the earl of Sandwich. * On Jan. 21, 1855, John Moses Browning, sometimes called the “father of modern firearms,” is born in Ogden, Utah. When he was 24 years old, Browning received his first patent, for a rifle that Winchester manufactured as its Single Shot Model 1885. The rifle is still made today. * On Jan. 16, 1919, the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, prohibiting the sale of alcohol, is ratified and becomes the law. It failed to prevent the distribution of alcoholic beverages, however, and led to the rise of organized crime in America. * On Jan. 15, 1936, Edsel Ford, the son of auto industry pioneer Henry Ford, forms a philanthropic organization called the Ford Foundation with a donation of $25,000. The foundation was established in part as a legal way for the Ford family to avoid inheritance taxes. * On Jan. 17, 1953, a prototype Chevrolet Corvette sports car makes its debut at General Motors’ Motorama auto show. The Corvette was named for a fast type of naval warship. * On Jan. 19, 1977, President Gerald Ford pardons Iva Toguri, one of the “Tokyo Rose” Japanese women who broadcast Axis propaganda over the radio to Allied troops during World War II. Toguri was a U.S. citizen who was trapped in Japan when war broke out. * On Jan. 20, 1987, British negotiator Terry Waite is captured by Shiite Muslims in Beirut while attempting to win freedom for Western hostages. He was not released for more than four years.

SOAP HISTORY • The manufacture of soap actually pre-dates Mount Sapo by some number of centuries. A recipe for soapmaking was discovered on Sumerian clay tablets dating back to 2500 B.C. And during excavations of ancient Babylon, archaeologists uncovered clay cylinders containing a soap-like substance which were around 5,000 years old. A complete soap factory was found in the ruins of Pompeii, which was destroyed by the explosion of Mount Vesuvius in A.D. 79. • Soapmaking did not become an established business until about the 7th century, in Spain and Italy. However, soap remained an expensive luxury item because it was difficult to manufacture. Soap was often so heavily taxed that it was beyond the budgets of most people. Bathing was out of fashion for many centuries, being considered sinful. When Louis Pasteur proved that cleanliness cuts down on disease, bathing began to become an accepted practice and the use of soap began to rise. • In 1837, a candle maker named William Procter teamed up with a soap maker named James Gamble. Procter and Gamble discovered how to produce soap in massive quantities and soon they were also selling it in massive quantities. Finally, soap - and bathing - were common. ADVANCES IN SOAP • The science of soap continues to march forward. When animal fats were in short supply during World War II, German scientists learned how to make soap using synthetic compounds and petroleum by-products. These are called detergents. Many soaps are made from vegetable oils such as cocoa butter or palm oil. The town of Castile in Spain makes soap using olive oil. (cont’d)

* The unknown soul who made the following sage observation must have been a keen observer of events: “A politician can appear to have his nose to the grindstone while straddling a fence and keeping both ears to the ground.” * In the 17th century, a Frenchman opened a coffee shop in London and sold chocolate, newly imported from the Americas, for 10 to 15 shillings a pound. That may not sound like much until you learn that at the time, the going price of a pound gold was 20 to 30 shillings. * Are you interested in pogonotrophy? If you’re a woman, the answer is probably no. The word, derived from the Greek word “pogon,” or “beard,” and the suffix “trophy,” or nourishment, refers to the growing of a beard. * Most people realize that many places in the United States were once known by different names. Here’s a sampling: the Potomac River was originally called Conococheague Creek, Camp David was named Shangri-La, and the USA itself was once known as the United States of Congress Assembled. * Good news for the not-so-neat among us: Making your bed could be bad for you. A study done in the United Kingdom at Kingston University showed that the linens of an unmade bed retain less moisture, therefore making them less attractive to dust mites. * Evidently it’s not just humans who associate a deeper voice with maturity (and desirability) in males. It seems that male owls try to appear more macho and attract females by lowering the tone of their hoots.

To Your Good Health By Keith Roach, M.D.

Psyllium Allergy Rare But Possible DEAR DR. ROACH: I would like to know if you have ever heard of a person being allergic to psyllium fiber? My doctor suggested I take Metamucil for constipation, as opposed to stool softeners. However, when I took it, my face and eyes began to itch, I began to wheeze and I coughed until I vomited it up. My doctor stated he had never heard of anyone being allergic to it. As a side note, my husband has used Metamucil for years, and I have had a couple of episodes of wheezing and shortness of breath that could be attributed to inhaling some of the powder when he mixed it. -- P.G. ANSWER: I haven’t seen any cases either, but it can happen, rarely -- most often to people who have allergies to grasses or dust. It is possible that inhaling some of the powder started the allergy. I would be careful to stay away from the area where your husband is mixing his, as allergies sometimes worsen over time. Unfortunately, you will have to find another source for fiber. Good dietary sources include wheat bran, prunes and prune juice. If you need a supplement, you may try methylcellulose (such as Citrucel), wheat dextrin (like Benefiber), and calcium polycarbophil (Fibercon). Be sure to get enough fluid, and start with a low dose and then slowly increase.

ADVANCES IN SOAP (cont’d) • Soaps and detergents are widely used in industry. Soap prevents hot rubber tires from sticking to their molds. Motor oil contains detergents that break down soot and dust particles, preventing them damaging the engine. Soap polishes jewelry and softens leather. Today Americans spend $2.2 billion on soaps and detergents annually, averaging 59.5 lbs. per person. BEATING IT UP • Ivory soap was first invented in 1879 by Procter and Gamble. At that time, the soap was named White Soap and it sank in the bathtub water just like every other soap. However, a worker one day went to lunch and forgot to turn off the soap-mixing machine. When he returned, he found the vat of soap frothy and bubbling. Mr. Procter came to look over the situation, and decided the soap had not been harmed. The soap was processed and sent out on the market. • Not long afterward, Procter and Gamble started receiving letters from consumers asking for more of the “floating soap.” Once the company realized what had happened, they decided to beat extra air into all their soap, making it lighter than water. Although it results in giving the consumer less soap for their money, the move proved to be popular. White Soap was renamed Ivory, and the world’s first “soap that floats” was born. FAST FACTS • Ivory soap is advertised as being 99.44% pure. What is the other 56/100% made of? Uncombined alkali, carbonates, and mineral matter. • A single bar of soap produced by a family-run business in Lebanon and sold in Qatar will run you $2800. Each bar is infused with gold and diamond powder.

The booklet on constipation explains this common disorder and its treatments. Readers can order a copy by writing: Dr. Roach -- No. 504W, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$5 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: My father is 86 years old and in generally good health. He has been falling for no apparent reason for the past three years. He has had MRIs and X-rays, been to neurologists and ENTs -- no one has an explanation. He has walkers and an electric wheelchair, but there are times when he has to stand and/or walk a little. My parents’ apartment looks like a war zone. Almost all of the furniture has been broken, not to mention the cuts and bruises on my dad. Is there anything you can think of that might cause this? -- J.G. ANSWER: If multiple doctors haven’t helped with the benefit of a complete history, exam and labs, I’m not likely to. However, vitamin D supplements have been shown to improve strength and reduce falls in the large number of people who have low levels. There are two ways to find out. You either can have the vitamin D level checked by a doctor, and use vitamin D if it is low; or, you can try a daily dose of vitamin D for a month or so and see if it helps. Most authorities recommend 400-800 IU daily. Personally, I have found that 1,0002,000 IU often is needed. This dose is unlikely to do harm if taken for only a month trial, and may be necessary for those whose levels are deficient and have symptoms.

SNACK FOODS

• In the mid-1960s a researcher for Procter & Gamble came up with an idea for a potato snack that was made of potato dough which was rolled, pressed, and cooked. A food storage technician named Fredric Baur invented a unique method of packaging the curved snacks by stacking them in a canister with a re-sealable lid rather than loose in a bag like most potato chips. By 1968 the new potato product was ready for the market, but it still needed a name. • Rather than hire an advertising firm to think of a name, officials at Procter & Gamble pulled out the local phone book for Cincinnati, Ohio, which is where the factory was located. They went through the names of the streets, looking through the ones that started with a ‘P’ because they wanted a name that would match the ‘P’ in potato. In a suburb named Finneytown, they found the perfect ‘P’ they were looking for, and thus the name of the new potato snack was born. • It was argued in a court of law that that the snack isn’t really potato chips because they only have a potato content of 42%. They were dubbed “potato crisps” instead. • By the mid-1970s the product was being sold everywhere. Fredric Baur was so proud of his inventive packaging method that when he died in 2008, his will stipulated that he be buried in one. His children honored his request by having him cremated and placing some of his ashes in one of the potato crisp cans he had designed. • This popular potato snack is now sold in over 100 countries and 45 different flavors have been introduced over the years, forever memorializing the Ohio street it was named after: Pringle Avenue.

A Grain of Salt It’s all over the news now that eating a salad every day may help reduce cognitive decline and dementia in seniors. What’s worrisome is that the results of medical research sometimes are splashed in big headlines and that too many people automatically will assume it’s true. When it comes to understanding research, we need to dig deeper than just the headline. For example, how long did the study go on? In this case, it was five years. That’s good. The thinking skills of participants were tested every year. That’s also good. But was the research done in a controlled environment, such as how many salads did a participant actually eat? In this case, the information was self-reported in a questionnaire. In other words, it might not be true. And then there’s the bottom line. Did the researchers flatly state that eating salads helps? No, they did not. They said there was an “association,” but they couldn’t rule out other possible reasons. Color me confused because an article quoting the same study author, basically saying the same thing, appeared back in 2015, and back then it was stated that it’s a mystery. In this column, I frequently point your attention to the results of research, but each time I advise you to talk to your doctor before you make any changes in your exercise or diet. And I’m doing so again: Before you add extra greens to your diet, consult your doctor, especially if you’re going to add large amounts of kale, lettuce or broccoli, or anything with vitamin K. Vitamin K affects blood clotting, and could cause problems for people already on drugs to decrease the amount of clotting. In short, beware. Just because you read it in the news doesn’t make it true ... or good for you personally. Ask your doctor.

Cat Relationship Is All About Compromise DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Why do cats do what they do? Why do they tear ornaments off the Christmas tree, knock glasses off the coffee table, attack our shoelaces and knead their claws into our sweater? Is there any way to get mine to stop doing, like, all of these things? Sign me -- Frayed Sweater, and Nerves, in Toronto DEAR FRAYED: After years and years of studying this conundrum, I can honestly say most cats won’t respond to pleas, begging or even treats. Well, sometimes they’ll respond to treats. But they’ll go right back to doing what they enjoy most: destroying all that you love. I’m being (slightly) sarcastic, of course. Having a cat means making a few compromises in your life, particularly in the interior-decorating department. It means being more careful about

setting expensive glassware on the countertop. It means a Christmas tree whose bottom third remains undecorated, or adorned with unbreakable, petsafe ornaments. It means patiently retying your shoelaces after your cat has pounced on them. It means buying a new sweater every fall, or keeping your favorite ones in a drawer to wear on special occasions only. The tradeoff, however, is that you have a companion for many happy years. A cat kneading his or her claws on your sweater while curled up in your lap is an expression of contentment, an acknowledgment that you’re family. You don’t have to give up all the breakable things that you love in order to live with your cat, you just need to make a few concessions to keep both your cat and your glassware safe.

SNACK FOODS (cont’d) • Amedeo Obici was born in Italy. His father died when he was seven, leaving his mother with three children. Amedeo’s uncle lived in Scranton, Pennsylvania, where he ran a general store. He asked Amedeo to join him. Amedeo sailed to America at the age of 12. • He spoke no English, so his destination was written on a tag tied to his coat. When he arrived in the U.S., he was misdirected, put aboard the wrong train, and ended up in Wilkes-Barre instead of Scranton. A kindly stranger took the crying child to a store run by Italians who could translate for him. He stayed with them while his uncle was contacted, and he noticed the shopkeeper’s daughter was pretty. Later he returned to this family, eventually marrying their daughter and helping run the shop. • At this shop they sold peanuts, roasting them on the premises and using a large fan to blow the scent into the street as an advertisement. Amedeo built a push-cart to sell peanuts on the street, and soon had enough money to send for the rest of his family. He constructed his own peanut roaster out of junkyard components and later invented a method of shelling and skinning peanuts. • In 1906 he opened a peanut plant, choosing a random name for his company that he thought sounded dignified: Planters. • The iconic Mr. Peanut logo was drawn in 1916 by a 14-year-old who won a contest sponsored by the company. Amedeo was so taken with the youngster he ended up paying his way through college and medical school. • To celebrate the company’s 100th birthday in 2014, nine young adults drove three 27-footlong Nutmobiles around the country appearing along the way at stores, sporting events, and concerts.
