by Kathy Wolfe Tidbits is doing the cha-cha this week! We’re not just looking at that dance and a couple of others, we’re exploring all kinds of other words that begin with cha-. • Cha-cha music was first introduced in 1953 by a Cuban composer and violinist Enrique Jorrin. A French dance teacher Pierre Zurcher-Margolie visited Cuba to study their dance methods and devised the ballroom dance he dubbed the cha-cha. • The chaconne began as a lively spirited street dance in 16th-century Spain, but gradually transitioned into a slow majestic dance performed by courtesans by the 18th century. • The chasse dance movement consists of quick gliding steps with the same foot always leading. It’s commonly seen in line dancing, ice dancing, ballet, and in the ballroom. . • It’s not very likely that the chamois you use to buff and polish your car came from a chamois. This goat-antelope species native to the mountains of Europe has hooked upright horns and grows to a height of about 31” (80 cm). Because European law now prohibits the hunting of the chamois in order to preserve the species, modern car owners’ chamois are mostly made from the hides of deer, domestic goats, or sheep.

CHA-CHA (continued): • Don’t confuse challis with chalice. Challis is a light clothing fabric of wool, cotton, or rayon, which usually has a printed design, while a chalice is a goblet most frequently used to hold drink in a religious ceremony, for example, the wine used in Communion. • Chantilly means different things to different people. To some, it’s a community of 11,000 inhabitants in France’s Chantilly Forest, 24 miles (38 km) northeast of Paris. To others, it refers to the handmade bobbin lace made there beginning in the 1600s. This intricate lace is made from silk with complex flower patterns woven from continuous silk thread. For hundreds of years, the fabric was usually black and often used for mourning wear, as well as shawls, veils, and umbrella covers. In 1958, J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson released the chart-topping song “Chantilly Lace,” which spent 22 weeks in the Top 40 and became the third most-played song of that year. The following year, the 28-year-old Bopper was tragically killed along with Buddy Holly in a plane crash while on a new tour. • Geoffrey Chaucer is widely known as the Father of English Literature, and is considered the greatest English poet of the Middle Ages. He is best known for The Canterbury Tales, a collection of 24 tales about a group of pilgrims traveling together from Southwark to Canterbury Cathedral. The tales were more than just stories – they represented a satirical picture of English society and the Church of England. In addition to his literary achievements, Chaucer was also a philosopher, alchemist, astronomer, and diplomat. Upon his death in 1400, he became the first poet to be interred in the Poet’s Corner of Westminster Abbey.

Many Things Can Cause Restless Leg Syndrome
DEAR DR. ROACH: Don’t forget that although there are many medical causes of restless leg syndrome, varicose veins also can be a source of symptoms, and we have cured many people of symptoms with minimally invasive varicose vein treatments. We always recommend that if you have visible varicosities or strong family history of varicose veins, you should get an ultrasound to determine if you have venous insufficiency. The treatments have essentially no down time and can mean one less medication for many people. In addition, just because you can’t see visible varicosities does not mean you do not have venous insufficiency. We have patients with beautiful legs whose ultrasound reveals large veins under the surface. -- Melissa A. Sandman, M.D.
297 S. Main Street ~ 307-672-5169
ANSWER: Thank you for writing. Many people also have written about other causes and treatments for restless leg syndrome, so I wanted to talk a bit more about this important subject. In addition to the iron deficiency I mentioned and the varicose veins Dr. Sandman writes about, there are several other important causes, including kidney disease, usually when dialysis has started. Diabetics have a higher risk for RLS, which sometimes can be mistaken for diabetic neuropathy. Multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease both are associated with RLS, and Parkinson’s is important because when medicines such as levodopa/carbidopa (Sinemet) wear off, it can mimic RLS symptoms. When dopa drugs are used long-term for RLS, symptoms can get worse, a condition called augmentation. Pregnant women are more likely to have RLS. Many drugs, especially antidepressants, can cause RLS. I had a reader tell me that hers was due to Benadryl she was taking for sleep. Magnesium deficiency is common in RLS, and several readers told me magnesium supplements stopped their symptoms. The booklet on restless leg syndrome provides much more information on this common sleep disorder, and also offers advice on nighttime cramps. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Roach -- No. 306W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Can. with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: I am 92 and have spinal stenosis in my lower back and neck. The neck stenosis is causing a balance problem. Who would treat and/or operate on this -- orthopedist or neurologist? -- J.W. ANSWER: I would be very slow to recommend surgery on the neck at age 92. I would try other treatments, including medication, physical therapy and possibly injection, before considering surgery. Balance problems may benefit from problem-specific exercises. A neurologist may be very helpful in evaluating whether the symptoms are indeed coming from the spinal stenosis, because balance problems can have many different causes. If symptoms were intolerable despite everything that could be done short of surgery, I would find the most experienced surgeon around, which could be either a neurosurgeon or an orthopedic surgeon. *** DR. ROACH WRITES: Quite a few people have written in to recommend nasal saline gel for people with dry nose and recurrent nosebleeds. It is worth a try, especially for those who don’t like petrolatum or for whom it isn’t working. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible.

CHA-CHA (continued): • If you’re having trouble sleeping, try brewing a cup of Anthemis nobilis, more commonly known as chamomile. It’s known to fight insomnia and act as a muscle relaxant. And just as Peter Rabbit’s mother gave him chamomile tea because he wasn’t feeling well, many claim that it eases a stomach ache. Some mothers put it in a baby’s bottle to reduce gum inflammation during teething. Others use it in cream form to relieve the pain of bug bites. However, chamomile is not for those allergic to ragweed, as the two are from the same plant family. • In 1609, French explorer Samuel de Champlain happened onto a lake situated near the present-day border between Canada and the United States, spanning across Vermont, New York, and Quebec. Lake Champlain is about 400 feet (120 m) deep and was used as a water passage between the St. Lawrence and Hudson Valleys. Samuel de Champlain claimed that he saw a monster in the lake 5 feet (1.5 m) long, “as thick as a man’s thigh, with silver-gray scales a dagger could not penetrate.” The explorer wrote that the monster had 2.5-ft. (0.76 m) jaws with sharp and dangerous teeth. His story is backed up by claims of the Native Americans in the area. The monster tale has found its way into the naming of sports teams and mascots, most notably, the Vermont Lake Monsters and their mascot Champ, that state’s minor league baseball team. • During medieval times, knights protected the front of their war horse’s head with special armor, some which added hinged cheek plates. This armor was known as chamfron. • We’ve all used chalk throughout our lives, but what exactly is chalk anyway? It’s a porous form of limestone, composed mostly of calcium carbonate. It usually forms underwater on the sea bed from the gradual accumulation of tiny calcite plates and marine organisms. England’s White Cliffs of Dover are the most famous deposit of chalk, although large quantities are also found in Denmark. Today’s blackboard chalk used in classrooms is actually a manufactured substance made from gypsum, which is calcium sulfate. Some chalk is formed from talc, which is magnesium silicate. • World-renowned fashion designer Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel came from very humble beginnings, born to a peddler and a laundress in 1883. When her mother died 12 years later, Chanel’s father put her and her two sisters into an orphanage run by nuns. They never saw him again. During her six years in the orphanage, Coco was taught to sew, a skill that shaped the remainder of her life. Before her clothing career, she was a nightclub singer, but in 1910, financed by her current love interest, she opened her first shop in Paris. In the 1920s, she introduced the legendary Chanel suit and the timeless “little black dress” as well as her signature Chanel No. 5 perfume. By 1935, her company had over 4,000 employees. TIME magazine has included Coco Chanel on their list of “The 100 Most Influential People of the 20th Century,” the only fashion designer to receive this honor. • There are about 22,000 species of chalcid wasps, but entomologist estimate there may be anywhere from 60,000 to 500,000 more species of this insect that are yet to be discovered. The tiny 3-mm chalcids are a friend to the gardener, acting as a natural method of controlling garden pests such as aphids and cutworms.

Guinea Pig’s Sudden Death a Mystery
NOTEWORTHY INVENTORS: PATRICIA BATH Although the name Patricia Bath is not wellknown, her invention has provided sight to thousands of people around the world. Tidbits’ focus this week is on this brilliant ophthalmologist who was a pioneer in cataract surgery. • Patricia Bath was raised in Harlem by her father, an immigrant from Trinidad, and mother, who was a domestic worker. Her father, a part-time newspaper columnist and former merchant marine, was also the first African-American man to work as a motorman for the New York City subway system. Her mother saved her salary for her children’s education, and gave Patricia her first interest in science when she bought her a chemistry set. • Patricia became interested in medicine after studying the life of Dr. Albert Schweitzer and his ministry to lepers in the Congo. At age 16, she had already been invited to attend a cancer research workshop sponsored by the National Science Foundation. • After graduating high school in just two-anda-half years and receiving the National Science Foundation’s scholarship, she went on to a degree in chemistry followed by a medical degree, completing her residency in ophthalmology, the branch of medicine concerned with eye diseases and conditions. She was the first African-American to complete a residency in ophthalmology. • While involved in a fellowship at Columbia University, Patricia worked in the area of corneal transplants and keratoprosthesis, a procedure that replaces the human cornea with an artificial one. • While working at Columbia, Patricia noticed that African-Americans seemed twice as likely to suffer from blindness than other ethnicities she was caring for, as well as eight times more likely to develop glaucoma. Concluding that this was due to the lack of access to good medical care, Patricia Bath developed a community ophthalmology system for those unable to afford treatment. • A move to California brought her to a faculty position at the University of California as professor of surgery and ophthalmology, as well as a position at the UCLA Medical Center as the first African-American woman surgeon. In 1977, she co-founded the American Institute for the Prevention of Blindness, an organization devoted to “protect, preserve, and restore the gift of sight.” • In 1981, Patricia began working on her famous invention, the Laserphaco Probe, and after years of research and testing, she received a patent for this device which uses a laser to vaporize cataracts through a 1-millimeter insertion into the patient’s eye. This enables the patient’s own lens to be removed and a replacement lens inserted in a nearly painless procedure. Her invention gave sight to individuals who had been blind for decades. • Patricia Bath is the first African-American female doctor to receive a medical patent. She continued work on the Laserphaco Probe and received additional patents on its innovations. In 2000, she was granted an additional patent for a method she developed for the use of ultrasound technology in the treatment of cataracts. Now in her 70s, Patricia continues to pursue her lifelong passion – the prevention, treatment, and cure of blindness.
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Our guinea pig, “Trixie,” died suddenly yesterday. She was fine, then she took short and deep breaths, and wouldn’t eat or come out of her igloo. A couple hours later we found her passed away, lying on her side. We don’t understand what happened. Unfortunately it was Sunday, and we have no small-animal vet in our town. Just curious if you have any idea what may have happened. -- Diana, via email DEAR DIANA: I’m sorry to hear about the death of your pet. Sadly, guinea pigs can fall victim to a number of different illnesses, and can do so shockingly fast. Sometimes, they show few to no outward symptoms. Respiratory illnesses, especially pneumonia, strike guinea pigs hard. Adenovirus, an illness that doesn’t always directly cause death, can lead to pneumonia as the guinea pig’s immune system weakens. Guinea pigs also can suffer a stroke or heart attack at any age, often for no apparent reason. When a guinea pig (or hamster, or other pet rodent) begins to show signs of distress -- such as weight loss (more than 2 ounces is cause for an immediate vet visit), hiding away in her igloo or refusing to eat -getting help quickly is important, and that means getting your pet to the vet within hours or even minutes to give it the best chance. In this case, a veterinarian wasn’t available right away. Wheek Care Guinea Pig Rescue lists a few firstaid items to keep on hand here: http://www.wheekcare.org/first-aid.html, as well as extensive tips on health signs to watch for. Daily monitoring of your pet is your best bet to combat the threat of sudden death. Send your questions or comments to ask@pawscorner.com. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
MORE CHA-CHA • The color chartreuse, a pale apple green halfway between green and yellow was named after a French liqueur made by Carthusian monks. This Roman Catholic religious order was founded by Saint Bruno in 1084 in the Chartreuse Mountains near present-day Grenoble, France, The monks began making the pale green liqueur in 1737 from distilled alcohol aged with 130 herbs, plants, and flowers, and it is still manufactured in their distillery today. Crayola added chartreuse to its box of crayons for the first time in 1972. • The fine wines of France are named for the region where they are produced. Chablis, which is a very dry white Burgundy wine, is produced near Chablis in north central France. The region’s cool climate produces a wine with more acidity and a less fruity flavor. Chablis is usually fermented in stainless steel tanks rather than oak casks. Chardonnay, from the Burgundy wine region of eastern France, is a green-skinned grape variety used to make a white wine with a more fruity taste of plum, citrus, and pear. The sparkling white wine champagne, is produced in Champagne in northeastern France. The rules of making champagne call for a second fermentation of the wine in the bottle which creates the carbonation. This is accomplished by adding additional yeast and rock sugar. A minimum of a year and a half is necessary to completely develop its flavor.

CHA-CHA (continued): •“Pardon me, boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo-Choo?” These are the opening words of the 1941 gold record recorded by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra. Featured in the 1941 movie Sun Valley Serenade, the song was No. 1 on the Billboard charts for nine weeks, including on December 7, the day Pearl Harbor was bombed. The song is the story of a train traveling from New York City to Chattanooga. It was nominated for an Academy Award that year for Best Song. • The name Chattanooga comes from the Native American language, translating “rock coming to a point,” which refers to nearby Lookout Mountain, an unusual rock formation. Tennessee’s fourth-largest city, Chattanooga was the site of three significant Civil War battles – the Battle of Chickamauga, Missionary Ridge, and Lookout Mountain. • The legendary pioneer Johnny Appleseed was born John Chapman in Massachusetts in 1774. Chapman was an eccentric person who frequently traveled barefoot, dressed in cast-off clothing, as he introduced apple trees in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and West Virginia. Although our image of Johnny Appleseed is one of him randomly scattering seeds wherever he went, he actually planted them in nurseries, constructing fences around the area as protection from animals. He entrusted the nurseries to neighbors, revisiting the area every two years to check on it. The world’s only Johnny Appleseed Museum is located at Ohio’s Urbana University, which claims to have a tree believed to have been planted by Chapman. However, an Ohio farm family also claims to have the only surviving tree on their property.
