“You’re only given a little spark of madness. You mustn’t lose it.” – Robin Williams
FIRST NATIONAL BANK MONUMENT
T
o many, Robin Williams’ form of comedy might have appeared to border on madness. His fast-talking, constantly-joking physical and intellectual humor was original and unique, allowing him to stand out among his peers. But it wasn’t just his comedy that earned him a place as a household name. Williams was also an incredibly gifted actor. He had the ability to play the silly, goofy alien in a sitcom as well as a serious, flawed professor in a big screen blockbuster. As with many other show-biz people who shine bright for a long time, Williams’ star was snuffed out far too soon. And so it is with heavy

Robin McLaurin Williams was born to Laurie McLaurin and Robert Williams on July 21, 1951 in Chicago, Illinois. Williams attended elementary and middle school in Lake Forest, Illinois and as a youngster, he described himself as shy and quiet. When his father, a senior executive at Ford Motor Company was transferred to Detroit, the then seventh-grade Williams moved with In his first year at Julliard in 1973, Williams started out his stand-up his family to a large farm house in Williams was accepted as only one comedy career doing shows at comBroomfield Hills, Michigan. of two students into the Advanced The Life and Works of Robin Williams...

From a young age, Williams said that he liked to make people laugh and that the first impression he ever did was of his grandmother speaking to his mother. He said he would tell jokes to his mom to make her laugh and get her to pay attention to him, something he yearned for because both his mom and dad worked, often leaving him to be cared for by the maids. He said that not having his parents around as much as

PATHWAY PARENTING
NURTURING YOUR MARRIAGE
I
was watching a reality television show a couple of years ago (and it was an hour of my life I’ll never get back!). In it, woman ‘A’ was telling woman ‘B’ that ‘B’ and her husband had nothing in common aside from their kids. Also, that when the kids were grown, the couple would grow apart even more. From ‘B’s response, it appeared to be true. But, then again, it was a reality television show. Whether it was true for that woman, I can’t say, but it is true for many couples. In the midst of carpooling, working, paying bills, repairing the roof and dishwasher, and family events, there are parts of our lives that can get pushed to the wayside. An area I see pushed aside a lot is:
Nagging never works and it’s annoying. Make a pact to end nagging. If a request is made and you feel like you’re not being heard or respected, then talk about it. On the opposite end of nagging is complimenting. Compliment your spouse. Maybe compliment her new outfit or shoes or his fresh haircut. Compliment her or his cooking or funny laugh. Find something to say that you can mean and do it daily. Finally, schedule dates! Regularly schedule time to go out to a place you both enjoy. Maybe it’s a ball game, a nice dinner,
nurturing the marriage. It’s unfortunate, but a reality in many families. So what to do about it? One can certainly Google ‘how to keep a marriage alive’ or ‘bringing romance back into marriage’ or several other search phrases. You’ll find many articles with experts touting how to keep a marriage going strong. Or you can ask someone you know, who has a healthy marriage, what he or she does to keep it that way. After being married sixteen years, I’ve learned a thing or two.
a movie, or ski/snowboarding adventure. Maybe it’s your favorite hiking place or happy hour location. Whatever or wherever it is, make it happen. If you’re already doing all of this, you are probably in a healthy relationship. If so, acknowledge that of each other. It takes work to make a relationship healthy.

Blackberries, like blueberries and raspberries, are a super food. They are rich in vitamin C and fiber, but their most desirable healthy trait comes from their dark-blue color, which is linked to high antioxidant levels. Antioxidants are considered a natural deterrent to many cancers and other diseases, and there is a long list of wonderful heath effects associated with eating fresh blackberries regularly.
Of all the berries of summer, blackberries are the ones that arrive early and stay late into the season. In warm climates, this strikingly beautiful fruit begins producing in late spring, and if the weather is not too hot, will continue throughout the summer. If you’ve grown tired of strawberries and can’t find fresh raspberries or blueberries at the market, there most likely will still be baskets of blackberries. Many of us, with other choices of summer fruit, might pass over blackberries. Maybe you remember a blackberry with a tart, sugarless taste. This unfortunate berry simply didn’t have what it needed to grow to its full potential. It would be a shame to shun blackberries without tasting them. They’re one of the most delicious and healthy treats that summer could possibly bring us. Today’s farmers know just how to keep their plants happy and producing sweet, tart fruit.

DEEP PURPLE
Look for Specials Throughout Football Season!
In summer, depending on your part of the country, there are many pick-your-own farms. This is a fun way to get the tastiest fruit. When selecting blackberries, look for ones that have a plump, dark color. Remember the brand or farm that gives you your first delicious berries, because you likely can depend on it throughout the season. Blackberries are highly perishable. When you get them home, unpack them and look for any that might have mold, and discard them. Then store the berries, unwashed, in a single layer on a plate or in another container, and place it in the refrigerator. The blackberries should keep for up to a week. You can use blackberries in both sweet and savory dishes. My recipes for Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Blackberry-Basil Spread and my Blackberry and Spinach Salad are the perfect way to showcase the sweet perfection of blackberries.

In a large, deep bowl, gently mash the blackberries with a potato masher or a fork, and stir in the chopped basil. Heat an electric griddle or large, heavy non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat for at least 5 minutes. 2. Brush 4 slices of the bread with half of the olive oil and the butter or mayonnaise. On the remaining 4 slices of bread, place a single slice each of the American and the Fontina cheese. Top with a few spoonfuls of smashed blackberries. Place the oiled and buttered slices of the bread on top of the blackberries and press the slices together gently. 3. Carefully turn the sandwiches over so that the oiled and buttered side is in contact with the bottom of the griddle or skillet. Carefully brush the top of sandwiches with the remaining oil and butter. Turn heat down to medium low, and let each side cook for about 4-5 minutes to let the cheeses melt and the bread toast. Remove from the heat and serve immediately. Makes 4 sandwiches.

5 MINUTE DAILY RUN?!
I wonder, too, about the people who participated. If they were healthy enough to run for a half hour, maybe they were already in a health category that would give them a longer life. In terms of impact on the body, I don’t understand why a five-minute run multiple times a week is as good as a half-hour run when it comes to cardiovascular strength.
This is one time I’m going to give a thumbs-down on research study suggestions, at least for us, and point to another study (2011) that calls for 15 minutes a day or 90 minutes a wonder about some of these week of moderate-intensity activity studies.

Despite its conclusion, the research doesn’t actually say “five minutes per day.” The study also didn’t say why it has to be running.

here is great potential within you! Yet so many prefer to live only ordinary lives; to live as if each day has no importance and each year can pass without anything significant happening. Why are so many so content to live lives of quiet desperation? Two reasons: First of all, most people do not actively seek meaning in life. They are content to let life happen to them rather than take the effort to make something meaningful out

Have you ever wondered what Medicare covers versus what you pay privately? Understanding the available payment options and obligations for Elder Care Services is critical.
FINDING SENIOR LIVING
PART 8:
Long-Term Care Insurance is a valuable tool to protect your family’s assets. If your loved one has purchased a policy, the next step is to understand and strategize how to best utilize the policy.
The Veterans Aid & Attendance Pension provides wartime veterans and their surviving spouses with tax-free financial aid for senior care needs.

of each day or week or month. Significance comes only to those who seek it and seeking meaning takes effort.

Second, most people are self-centered and interested only in satisfying their own personal wants and needs. That’s how they miss discovering their own personal usefulness. They think the world owes them a living. They want to be served rather than serve and are content being takers rather than givers or spectators rather than participants.
that makes me happy? What problem can I solve; what need can I meet; what hurt can I heal? These questions will start your search for your destiny and launch you into a life of meaning and purpose. Your monotonous days will become exciting, your energy will increase, and your intelligence will expand all because you asked and found answers to the right questions.
But not you! You want more from life. You want to fulfill your destiny. You want to be that someone special you know God has created you to be.
Remember this: You were no accident. You are not the descendent of an ape nor will you one day return to earth as a butterfly, a Billy goat, or a British Lord or Lady. You are here at a specific time living in a specific place with a specific mission to accomplish. Your life has meaning. You are here for a reason.
So what to do? Start today to ask the really important questions about life. Cease to deal in the mundane and uninteresting events and ideas and look within your own heart and soul for more. Demand answers to questions like this: What do I love? What do I feel passionate about? What makes me cry, or laugh, or frown? What do I do well? What have I done
You already know this is true, don’t you. For a long time, deep inside the depths
8
of your soul, you have had a sense of eternity, an awareness of destiny, a feeling that your life really does matter, that you really are somebody very unique in the 10,000 year history of humankind. Guess what? Modern science agrees with you! With the discovery of the complexity of DNA, scientists consistently give testimony in courts declaring that an individual’s DNA, you’re DNA, is absolute evidence of each person’s unique identity. Discover your purpose for living and there will be no more sad reasons for living a boring and insignificant life.

Individualized treatment for:
twitch with high frequency. The plugging/ unplugging sensation is likely the Eustachian tube, which controls the pressure in the ear, opening and closing. The bad news is that I don’t know of anything to make it stop. The good news is that it won’t affect your hearing. Very rarely, it can be a sign of a nerve or muscle disease, but it is likely a normal phenomenon that many people have but few notice and articulate it as well as you have.
EAR TWITCH WON’T AFFECT HEARING DEAR DR. ROACH: For the past eight months, I have had a twitch in the inside of my right ear. I can hear it twitching, and I can feel it. It seems to get worse when I talk on the phone (it’s my phone ear), but sometimes I wake up with it twitching. It feels like when your eye twitches, only it’s inside my ear. I could liken the movement to a snapping of fingers. It’s more a vibration than a crunch. I do hear a sound when it happens, similar to when you get water plugging up your ear. So it plugs/unplugs with each twitch. I have gone to my general practitioner for help. He referred me to an ear specialist. They did a hearing test, which I passed with flying colors. Other than that, they didn’t have any solution to my problem. It is very bothersome and seems to be getting worse. I think it may be stress-related, but I don’t know what to do to make it stop. Can you help me? -- P.C. ANSWER: This sounds like a spasm of one of the muscles that control the tension of the eardrum, the tensor tympani and stapedius muscles. These muscles protect our ears, to some extent, from loud noises. Just like you can have a spasm or twitch in your eye muscles -- or indeed any muscle -- these muscles cause a unique sound sensation in the ear when they repeatedly
*** DEAR DR. ROACH: My mother, 88 years old, recently switched her medicine for hypertension from timed release, which she has been taking for 10 years, to one that is not timed release, because the timed release was too expensive. I’m worried. Has she compromised her health by doing this? Her cardiologist gave her the go-ahead. -J.R. ANSWER: In my opinion, timed-release versions for high blood pressure are preferable to non-timed-release because the level of the medication in the blood can go up and down to a greater degree with the regular-release formulation. However, it does depend on the medication, and her cardiologist knows more than I do about her particular situation. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: Because of my knee replacement, I am recommended to have four amoxicillin 500-mg tablets before a dental procedure. I am concerned about taking 2,000 mg every time. Is it too much? -- C.C.H. ANSWER: Amoxicillin is a very safe medication, and a single dose of 2,000 mg is standard for people who require treatment to prevent infection. The major concern is allergy, so anyone with a documented history of reaction to penicillin-like drugs should get an alternate medication.

MOMENTS IN TIME THE HISTORY CHANNEL
• On Aug. 31, 1888, Mary Ann Nichols, the first victim of London serial killer “Jack the Ripper,â€? is found murdered. The police were at a complete loss for suspects. However, two letters alluded to facts known only to the police and the killer. These letters, signed “Jack the Ripper,â€? gave rise to the serial killer’s nickname. • On Aug. 27, 1937, George E.T. Eyston breaks his own automobile land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, raising the mark to 345.49 mph. Eyston described his built-for-speed Thunderbolt as having two 2,000-horsepower Rolls Royce motors geared together. • On Aug. 26, 1944, French Gen. Charles de Gaulle enters Paris, which had been formally liberated from the Germans the day before. As he entered the Place de l’Hotel, French collaborationists took a few sniper shots at him. • On Aug. 28, 1955, while visiting family
in Money, Mississippi, 14-year-old Emmett Till, a black from Chicago, is murdered for flirting with a white woman. His assailants -- the woman’s husband and her brother -- were found “not guiltyâ€? by an all-white jury that deliberated for less than an hour. • On Aug. 29, 1962, Robert Frost leaves for the Soviet Union on a goodwill tour sponsored by the U.S. State Department in an effort to thaw Cold War relations. Frost’s poetry has established his international reputation as American’s unofficial poet laureate. • On Aug. 30, 1974, a train entering a Zagreb, Yugoslavia, station derails, killing 153 people. The train should have slowed to 30 mph as it approached the station; however, the engineers not only failed to slow the train, but went through a red signal at about 60 mph. • On Aug. 25, 1985, Samantha Smith, the 13-year-old “ambassadorâ€? to the Soviet Union, dies in a plane crash. Smith was best known for writing to Soviet leader Yuri Andropov, who invited her to visit the Soviet Union. The Russian government responded to her death by issuing a stamp in her honor and naming a mountain after her. (c) 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

FLASH BACK 1. The Beatles, 1969. After many takes and overdubs, Paul McCartney put down a layer with a Moog synthesizer, one of their first experiments. 2. “Walkin’ My Cat Named Dog,” in 1966. While Tanega never had another hit of her own, she did pen a few for Dusty Springfield, including “No Stranger Am I.” 3. “Jonathan Livingston Seagull,” the soundtrack to the 1973 film by the same name. 4. “Margaritaville,” by Jimmy Buffet, in 1977. 5. “Working My Way Back to You,” most recently done by The Spinners in 1979. The song originally was released in 1966 by the Four Seasons. While it’s the Four Seasons’ version people remember, it never cracked the No. 9 position on the charts. The Spinners’ version went to No. 2.

• A newspaper reporter once asked General Charles de Gaulle, leader of the Free French Forces during World War II and later president of the French Fifth Republic, if he was happy. De Gaulle replied, “What do you take me for, an idiot?” • If you’re like a million other Americans, you admit to drinking Coke for breakfast. • The next time you’re planning a trip to Indiana, keep in mind that in that state it is illegal to talk behind a person’s back or engage in “spiteful gossiping.” • It’s been claimed that prodigy William James Sidis had the highest IQ ever recorded (though any record of the test has been lost). At the age of 18 months, he was reading The New York Times; by the time he was 8, he had taught himself Latin, Greek, French, Russian, German, Hebrew, Turkish and Armenian and had
invented his own language he called Vendergood. At the age of 11 he became the youngest person to enroll in Harvard University, and when he was 12 he lectured the Harvard Mathematical Club on four-dimensional bodies. He graduated cum laude at 16. • If you wanted to circle the equator with one-dollar bills, it would take 257,588,120 of them. • In 1889, a magazine called The Literary Digest made the following prediction: “The ordinary ‘horseless carriage’ is at present a luxury for the wealthy, and although its price will probably fall in the future, it will never, of course, come into as common use as the bicycle.” • Before Charlton Heston became a famous actor, he earned cash by serving as an artists’ model -- and posed in the nude. *** Thought for the Day: “When choosing between two evils, I always like to try the one I’ve never tried before.” -- Mae West (c) 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Nick Snips THE MONEY MACHINE by Nick Yanez
W
here can you see a monkey riding a dog in a sparkle-sequenced jump suite? This exact act actually happened not too long ago during the halftime of a Denver Broncos’ game. Traditionally, half time shows were reserved for cheerleaders and/or marching bands. Some of the biggest schools in the nation still present the most exciting and entertaining student half time shows on a weekly basis. The NBA, NHL, MLB and NFL have a variety of half time show options. Sometimes spectators get to shoot a ball from half court for money or mascots will box while the crowd cheers on the home team. Every once in a while, we’re thrown a curve ball, like the aforementioned dog-riding-monkey-cowboy. But no matter what weird, wacky, or talent based half time gig is devised, they will always pale in comparison to one – The Super Bowl Halftime Show.
for the smaller acts out there? Will every band have to pay their local bar just to get in front of an audience? Should painters put money up front to galleries to hang their art? Would it be okay for writers to just outbid other journalists to get their story printed in the paper? At that point it comes down to who has the most money; not the content of what is being said. We need rebels. We need people to inspire us. We need talented world-changers to make us feel better. We already live in a world where money influences our leaders and lawmakers, should we let greed overcome the beauty of art as well? The choice now starts at the top. If the sanctity of art is to conquer the money machine, it’ll take every big name artists in the world to say “no” to the NFL and an audience of hundreds of millions. So what can we do? Nothing. All we can do is wait… and see who will break. Feel free to send Nick an email anytime about his weekly column, or any leads you have for underreported stories he could write about, to NickSnipsMail@Gmail. com
The Super Bowl is probably the only sporting event in the world where people who have absolutely no interest in the game still sit in front of the television for four hours. It’s an American tradition. In the modern era, the half time of the big game has been dedicated to big name bands and musical performers. Rock n’ roll hall of famers like U2, Tom Petty, and The Rolling Stones have all graced the stage. Two years ago it was Beyonce’s turn. The popular singer called it the “biggest show of her career” and in many ways, she was right. Sure, the pop singer had played for thousands of people on tour, but rarely does any artist get a live audience of millions. Televised or not, that’s unprecedented. When it was made public that Beyonce was performing the show for free though, many rushed to judgment. Why would an artist as famous as Beyonce ever play for free? The answer was exposure. And even though it seemed ridiculous to some, it turns out the NFL hasn’t paid for half time talent in years. Last week, the league took things once step further. Reportedly, the NFL reached out to mega-artists Rihanna, Katy Perry, and Coldplay and offered it’s coveted half time slot to the highest bidder. That’s right, the league wants these artists to ‘pay to play’. This is the most outrageous thing since the fried Twinkie! The NFL is a multi-billion dollar organization. They will likely pull in over a billion dollars in profit on the Super Bowl alone next year. How could they possibly ask three of the most successful artists of the decade to pay them to perform the most important Half Time show of the year? There’s no logic in paying for this gig. All three of the artists mentioned will sell millions of downloads this year regardless if they play the show or not. Arts and athletics have always seemed to have an unspoken rivalry. This does nothing to help that perception. If bands at the absolute highest level of performing have to pay to get shows, what does that mean
