by Kathy Wolfe You’ve probably heard it said that good things come in threes. This week, Tidbits checks out that phrase, offering info on some famous trios. • Singer/songwriter Ross Bagdasarian came up with an innovative idea in 1958 while experimenting with the speeds on a record player. He used his own voice recorded at half speed and played back at normal speed to create the Chipmunks – Simon, Theodore, and Alvin. Bagdasarian took on the stage name of David Seville, named for the city in Spain where he had been stationed during World War II. His blockbuster hit “The Chipmunk Song” (“Christmas, Don’t Be Late”) sold 4.5 million records in seven weeks, and paved the way for the CBS program, “The Alvin Show,” which premiered in 1961. The success of the Chipmunks continues to this day, carried on by Bagdasarian’s son, Ross, Jr. • Illustrator Vernon Grant created the cartoon mascots for Kellogg’s Rice Krispies, Snap! Crackle! and Pop! In the 1930s, Snap! was the first one created, and appeared on the box alone for six years. In English, we say, “Snap! Crackle! Pop!” but in German, the Rice Krispies mascots say, “Knisper! Knasper! Knusper!, while those in Finland say, “Riks! Raks! Poks!” The little fellows say, “Pif! Paf! Pof!” in the Netherlands.

Tidbits® of Sheridan and Johnson Counties Tidbits Presents the
HEALTH PAGE TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH By Keith Roach, M.D.
Healthy Bodies Don’t Need Supplements --DEAR DR. ROACH: After viewing an infomercial that praised the benefits of probiotics, I would like to know what you think. Probiotics have been prescribed when one is taking antibiotics to replenish the good bacteria that is lost. When taking no medication, I found that when I took one capsule (30 billion live cultures per capsule/10 probiotic strains) on a daily basis, I would get gas and diarrhea; therefore, I stopped taking them. I thought that this was the exact opposite reaction that should have occurred. Please write about the pros and cons and the reasons/necessity for taking probiotics on a daily basis. -- D.A.M. ANSWER: Probiotics are microorganisms, usually bacteria or yeast, that have beneficial properties. There is at least some evidence to support the use of probiotics for inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis), colon inflammation from radiation, irritable bowel syndrome and other diseases of the GI tract. However, with a few exceptions, there is very little evidence that taking anything (prescription or supplement) is of benefit to people who are healthy with no symptoms. Probiotics haven’t been shown to benefit healthy people. Any treatment can have side effects. While there may be some benefits, such as preventing antibiotics-associated diarrhea, I hesitate before recommending any treatment to a healthy, asymptomatic person. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: Does high blood pressure cause irregular or abnormal heart rhythms? -- P.K.S. ANSWER: Not usually. In some people with very longstanding high blood pressure, the heart can become dilated -- blown up like a balloon to much more than its normal size. When the heart, particularly the atria (the top chambers), becomes dilated like that, it makes atrial fibrillation more likely. High blood pressure is very common. Irregular heartbeats are universal -- we all have some every day. It is human nature to associate one problem with another, since they are both related to the heart. However, it’s more likely that the everyday irregularities you may have had without noticing take on new significance with a diagnosis of high blood pressure. That being said, since it is possible they are related, it’s certainly worth an EKG next time you see your internist or cardiologist to make sure you don’t have a dangerous heart rhythm. Sometimes doctors order 24-hour (or longer) EKGs for use at home, which can be correlated with any symptoms of heart irregularities. The booklet on abnormal heart rhythms explains atrial fibrillation and the more common heart-rhythm disturbances in detail. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Roach -- No. 107W, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6. Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: I have lower-back ache and have been seeing a chiropractor, which helps a little. Would yoga help? -- A. ANSWER: Yoga does help many people with back pain, but it’s important to find an instructor with experience with beginners and in using yoga specifically for back pain. Similarly, tai chi and Pilates exercises have been shown to be useful treatments for back pain. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. To view and order health pamphlets, visit www.rbmamall.com, or write to Good Health, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803.

FAMOUS TRIOS (continued): • In 1968, rockabilly songwriter Dick Holler composed a tribute song to the memory of four assassinated American civil rights leaders. Entitled “Abraham, Martin, and John,” the song memorialized Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Robert Kennedy, written shortly after King and Bobby Kennedy were killed. “Anybody here, seen my old friend Abraham…” is the first verse, followed by King and JFK. The fourth verse mentions Bobby walking over a hill with the other three. Recorded by Dion, the song rose to #4 on the Billboard pop chart. • You’ve no doubt heard of the Three Musketeers, but do you know their individual names? Alexandre Dumas’ 1844 novel tells of the adventures of three inseparable childhood friends, Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. Their well-known motto is “All for one and one for all!” First published in serial form in a Paris magazine from March to July, 1844, it takes place in the 1600s, and tells of the daring “swashbuckling” deeds of these members of The King’s Musketeers. Incidentally, the Mars candy bar of the same name made its debut in 1932. Mars’ advertising of the 1990s featured three men dressed as the legendary trio. • Do the names of Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthazar ring a bell? Although their names are not specifically mentioned in the Bible, these are the names attributed to the three Wise Men of the East, or Magi, who came to present gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to 14 Jesus after his birth in BethleSheridan hem. There is also no mention Good Health Emporium Leather of the number of kings who Outfitters • made the trek from Persia, but because three gifts are referenced, tradition gave way Werco Ave. to the assumption that there were three men. After present• ing their gifts, the Magi were Firestone warned by an angel in a dream Complete Auto Care to return to their homeland.

FAMOUS TRIOS (continued): • Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters, of course! This 1984 blockbuster film starred Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, and Bill Murray as New York City parapsychologists who establish a ghost-catching business. Recently fired from their positions at Columbia University, the three develop sophisticated equipment that can capture spirits, operating their business from an abandoned firehouse. Aykroyd had written a role for his pal John Belushi, but upon Belushi’s death, Bill Murray was hired. The giant monster, The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man, was one of the film’s beasts. Three suits were made for the character, each costing $20,000. All were destroyed during the filming. Fifty gallons of shaving cream were used to simulate the marshmallow “goo.” The movie was #1 at the box office for five weeks, and went on to gross more than $295 million worldwide. • Premiering in 1976, “Charlie’s Angels” starred Farrah Fawcett, Jaclyn Smith, and Kate Jackson. The crime action series chronicled the adventures of three police academy graduates who craved more excitement than working as a meter maid or crossing guard. Hired by Charlie Townsend as private investigators, the three worked alongside Townsend’s associate Bosley. Bosley acted as the primary gobetween since the trio of ladies never laid eyes on their employer, and received their assignment over speakerphone. Actor John Forsythe was the voice behind the mysterious Charlie, who was occasionally seen from the back. Over the show’s five seasons, other Angels made their way into the cast – Cheryl Ladd, Shelley Hack, and Tanya Roberts. • In 1925, Ted Healy debuted a vaudeville act called “Ted Healy and His Southern Gentlemen,” featuring the three Horwitz brothers, Curly, Moe, and Shemp. Their slapstick, nonsensical comedy routine was a big hit, and they were contracted to make a film in 1932, Soup to Nuts. Shemp left the group shortly after, and a childhood friend of the boys, Larry Fine (Louis Feinberg), took his place. The trio separated from Healy and became known as The Three Stooges. Their popularity soared and MGM signed the trio to a movie contract in 1933. In 1946, Curly suffered a severe stroke and his brother Shemp returned to the group. Despite illness and old age, the beloved Stooges managed to keep their act together going into the 1980s, after having starred in more than 220 films. • The Bible’s Book of Daniel relates the story of three young Jewish men who defied their king to worship God. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego lived in Babylon and were officials of King Nebuchadnezzar. The King set up a 90-ft. (27.4 m) statue of gold and commanded all to bow down before it. Refusal would result in being thrown into a fiery furnace. The trio’s response was, “If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty’s hand. But even if He does not, we want you to know that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold.” The furnace was prepared, seven times hotter than normal. When Nebuchadnezzar looked in, he saw four figures, walking unharmed in the flames. Realizing that an angel had been sent to protect them, he released them, and they emerged without a single sign of a burn. The King then decreed that any who spoke against their God should be torn limb from limb.

PAW’S CORNER By Sam Mazzotta
MUSICAL THREES • Perhaps the most famous opera singers in history, The Three Tenors consisted of Spaniards Placido Domingo and Jose Carreras, and Italian Luciano Pavarotti. Even people who didn’t like opera music liked this group, who made their debut as a trio in July, 1990. The concert, held as a benefit for leukemia, (Carreras had been diagnosed with the disease three years earlier), was recorded and became the best-selling classical album of all time. Their second televised performance held at Dodger Stadium (for which each tenor received $1 million) attracted 1.3 billion viewers worldwide. On their first worldwide tour, each received about $1 million per concert, which included a percentage of merchandise sold. Before disbanding as a trio in 2003, they had performed 34 live concerts. • Founded in 1961, Peter Yarrow, Paul Stookey, and Mary Travers were the most popular folk group of the 1960s. Their debut album, which included “If I Had a Hammers,” “Lemon Tree,” and “500 Miles” was an immediate hit. Peter, Paul, and Mary re-released a Bob Dylan tune in 1963, “Blowin’ in the Wind,” and sold 300,000 copies in less than two weeks. Yarrow composed “Puff, the Magic Dragon,” a tune the group recorded in 1963. The song has been shrouded in myths that it’s filled with drug references, but Yarrow actually based it on a poem about the lost innocence of childhood. The trio’s only #1 hit single, “Leavin’ on a Jet Plane,” came in 1969, a song written by their friend John Denver, who had initially recorded it in 1969. (continued on last page)

Finicky Cats Stage Hunger Strikes --DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I’m writing in regards to your recent column about the causes of finicky eating in pets. My two cats don’t like liver or the smell of liver. However, most wet cat food contains chicken or beef “byproducts,” which usually means some amount of liver. If my cats smell liver in their food, they just won’t eat it, and will go hungry and meow about it -- usually in the middle of the night. By trial and error, I have found about five or six different cans they really like to eat. However, some days they gobble the food down and other days they go on a hunger strike, even with foods they liked the last time. When that happens, I pick up the bowl and smell it. Every single time it smells like liver, and I have to throw it out. They also like variety in their wet food, although I never have had to switch their dry food. I wish cat food manufacturers would not add any liver at all, but almost all cat food has byproducts in it. I hope my experience helps your other readers. -- Kathy in Sacramento DEAR KATHY: Many thanks for sharing this! I too have dealt with this issue. The struggle then becomes finding another flavor or brand of food that the cat will tolerate. Often that boils down to buying a much more expensive brand that doesn’t contain byproducts. But that can be difficult for many cat owners. Readers, what tips do you have for cat owners trying to deal with finicky eaters? Send your tips to ask@pawscorner.com.

UNUSUAL ANIMALS: MOLES How much do you know about moles? Tidbits has all the particulars on this small burrowing animal. • It’s highly likely you’ve never seen a mole. That’s because they live secluded lives in underground burrows, and only rarely do they come above ground. They are able to reuse the oxygen they inhale on their brief trips to the surface, enabling them to survive in the lower levels of oxygen of the underground. • The average mole’s body is only about 6 inches (15.2 cm) long, weighing between 2.5 and 4.5 ounces (2 to 128 grams). The width of the tunnels they excavate is only about 2 inches (5 cm) wide and 1.5 inches (4 cm) in height, yet these passageways can extend for more than 75 yards (70 m). • Moles’ legs are short, but powerful. They use their very broad front feet and huge curved claws as shovels to dig their tunnels. They are able to move backwards nearly as quickly as forward. The moles aren’t the only ones to use their tunnels. Other small mammals such as voles and mice move through them, feeding on any grains and seeds they find. • Moles are not social animals and they tend to avoid each other, except in breeding season. Every mole has its own tunnel system, which includes a special “larder” or underground storeroom to store food to eat later. Their primary diet is earthworms, which the mole paralyzes with a toxin found in its saliva. Researchers have discovered larders containing over a thousand paralyzed earthworms. Moles also dig special compartments at the end of their tunnels for bedrooms and birthing areas. • It takes a lot of energy to be constantly burrowing and the mole eats from 70% to 10% of its body weight every day. This translates to a 2.8-oz. (80 g) mole needing about 1.7 oz. (50 g) of earthworms every day. It can starve to death if it doesn’t eat every few hours. • The star-nosed mole can detect, catch, and consume its food in less than one second! • A mole’s fur is soft and velvety and is often highly valued. Baby moles are born without any fur, which starts growing at about two weeks. The little creatures grow quickly and leave the nest when they are 35 days old. Their eyes are very tiny and are covered with skin or fur. The moles aren’t completely blind, but they see very poorly. Since they live in the dark the majority of their lives, good eyesight isn’t a crucial thing. They are sensitive to changes in light and movement. They find their prey through scent sensors on the tip of their nose. They also have no external ears. • Although moles often consume many insects and grubs that cause damage to lawns and gardens, they are generally perceived as pests, as their tunneling produces unsightly mounds of earth. Their burrowing can also damage the roots of plants underground. Damage to agricultural machinery can also result from the moles exposing rocks in a field, as well as damage to drainage systems and waterways. • The tiny male mole is referred to as a boar, the female is a sow, and the term for a group of moles is a labour.

MUSICAL THREES (continued): • Some of the most recognizable music in history was sung by the Brothers Gibb, or the BeeGee’s, as they called themselves. Their tight harmonies, vibrato, and falsetto sounds were their signature during the disco era. Older brother Barry and twins Robin and Maurice began their career in 1958, signing their first record contract in 1963. The family had moved from their native England to Australia, where the brothers were voted the Best Group of 1966, with Barry winning as Beat Songwriter at just 17 years of age. Their 1977 Saturday Night Fever soundtrack sold 15 million copies and won Album of the Year, with the five of the songs making it to #1 on the charts. The Gibbs composed half of 1978’s biggest songs. Barry and Robin once wrote three #1 singles in one afternoon. Among the best-selling artists of all times, the BeeGee’s have had sales of more than 220 million records. Of the three, only Barry survives, Maurice having died from intestinal problems in 2003 at 53, and his twin Robin succumbing to cancer in 2012. • The Supremes started out in 1959 as the Primettes in Detroit, Michigan. First founded as a quartet, the group consisted of high school friends from a housing project, Diana Ross, Mary Wilson, and Betty McGlown, The 15-year-olds won a prestigious talent contest and landed an audition with Motown Records. In 1962, McGlown left the group, and they remained a trio with a new name, The Supremes. By 1965, they were international stars. It wasn’t until 1967 that they were known as Diana Ross and The Supremes. The group is on record as America’s most successful vocal group, with 12 #1 singles on the Billboard charts. Their final performance as the original trio was in 1970 at Las Vegas’ Frontier Hotel.
