Do you miss performing? I don’t. I had a great life. When did you know you wanted to retire? A few years ago, I was in Germany playing to some 20,000 people and it just hit me: This is the time to step away. Why did you never announce your retirement? I didn’t want to be like Cher, on my 19th comeback or farewell performance. I love Cher, but I didn’t want to make an absolute statement that I might have to retrieve.

A: You need to assess whether there is any truth in your daughter’s perceptions, and if there isn’t, ﬁgure out why she feels that way. Write a note to the teacher asking for a meeting to discuss how your daughter can improve her grade. Then go in with an open mind—you needn’t apologize for your daughter or accuse the teacher. I’ll bet if you ask one good opening question—“My daughter feels she’s struggling here. What can she do to improve in your class?”—you’ll get a better idea of what’s going on. “It’s possible the teacher is unaware of your daughter’s feelings. Plus, it is unlikely he or she would act unprofessionally by giving out grades based on personal opinions about a student,” says Nancy Wahl, a veteran elementary school teacher in New York City. Most teachers genuinely want to see their students succeed; it’s in the kids’ interests, and theirs as well. — Judith Newman Send your questions to Parade.com/mannerup

We’re handing out the awards, named for Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger—whose dream of playing for Notre Dame was immortalized in the 1993 film Rudy, starring Sean Astin—in partnership with Inspireum, an Oregon-based company that develops youth programs. The winner will appear early next year in our annual All-America issue, which celebrates the best high school football players from around the country.

An important correction from BONIVA for women with postmenopausal osteoporosis You may have seen an ad about BONIVA for the treatment and prevention of postmenopausal osteoporosis that may have given you the wrong impression. Our ads stated that “After one year on BONIVA, 9 out of 10 women stopped and reversed their bone loss.” The FDA has found that there is not enough evidence to support this statement and wants us to clear up any misunderstanding you may have had about these ads and make sure you have the correct information about BONIVA. BONIVA has not been proven to stop and reverse bone loss in 9 out of 10 women and is not a cure for postmenopausal osteoporosis. BONIVA has been shown to help increase bone mass and help reduce the chance of having a spinal fracture (break). We encourage all patients to discuss their treatment with their healthcare provider. Only your doctor can determine if BONIVA is right for you. What is BONIVA?

calcium, cannot sit or stand for at least 60 minutes, or are allergic to BONIVA or any of its ingredients. BONIVA can cause serious side effects including problems with the esophagus; low blood calcium; bone, joint, or muscle pain; severe jaw bone problems; and unusual thigh bone fractures. Before starting BONIVA, tell your doctor if you have problems with swallowing, stomach or digestive problems, have low blood calcium, plan to have dental surgery or teeth removed, or have kidney problems. Stop taking BONIVA and tell your doctor right away if you have pain or trouble swallowing, chest pain, or severe or continuing heartburn, as these may be signs of serious upper digestive problems. Call your doctor immediately if jaw problems or hip, groin, or thigh pain develops; or if you have symptoms of low blood calcium such as spasms, twitching, cramps in your muscles, or numbness or tingling in your fingers, toes, or around your mouth. Follow the dosing instructions for once-monthly BONIVA carefully. The most common side effects are back pain, heartburn, stomach area pain, pain in your arms and legs, diarrhea, headache, muscle pain, and flu-like symptoms.

BONIVA is a prescription medicine used to treat or prevent osteoporosis in women after menopause. BONIVA helps increase bone mass and helps reduce the chance of having a spinal fracture (break).

You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA at www.fda.gov/ medwatch or by calling 1-800-FDA-1088.

It is not known how long BONIVA works for the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis. You should see your doctor regularly to determine if BONIVA is still right for you.

Ask Marilyn

Introducing your cold symptoms’ worst nightmare.

By Marilyn vos Savant

As children, my siblings and I often settled a disagreement with a game called “Evens and Odds.” In this game, one side is assigned “evens” and the other is assigned “odds.” Then, on the count of three, a representative of each side reveals a number of ﬁngers from zero to ﬁve. If the sum of the two numbers is even, the “evens” win; if the sum is odd, the “odds” win. Is this method fair? Or do the “evens” have an advantage? —Andy G., Cedar Hill, Mo.

The game is fair. One might guess that the “evens” have an advantage because the sum of two even numbers is even and the sum of two odd numbers is even, too. Only an odd number plus an even number will yield an odd sum. But there are two ways to get an odd sum: (1) an odd plus an even, and (2) an even plus an odd. So there are twice as many odd sums as you might think. “Evens and Odds” is a nice game. The odds are even! MARILYN SAYS …

The Comers and the Yawns, two families with Ole Miss roots whose love for Rebel football is a fact of history if not actual genetics, have occupied this same spot for as long as people can remember, game after game, season after season, generation after generation. “You don’t sit in a different church pew every Sunday,” says Karen Comer Fox, an Ole Miss graduate from ’85 whose mother and father started tailgating here a half-century ago. This tiny piece of the Ole Miss campus—inside a 10-acre oasis known as the Grove, just off the sidewalk, not far from a magnolia tree—is all but deeded to them, not by law but by tradition, which down here is pretty much the same thing.

It’s called “tailgating,” but really, that’s like referring to a Mardi Gras ball as a backyard weenie roast. “It is a social occasion,” says Nannette Comer, Ole Miss class of ’61 and Karen’s mother—and the grande dame of these Saturday festivities. “I cannot remember not going,” says Lois Gregory, class of ’73, whose late father, Howard Yawn, Tailgating | continued from page 11 helped establish this fete with the Comers all those In the hours before dawn and leading up to years ago.

Play by the rules. Check the home school’s website for tailgating regulations. You may need a propane grill—charcoal is outlawed at many venues—and some schools ban glass bottles and alcoholic beverages.

Maximize cooler space. Use frozen water bottles to keep meat and other beverages cold. You won’t have to haul coolers ﬁlled with ice, and you’ll have cold water to drink when the bottles thaw.

Go with ﬁnger foods. Table space will be limited, which makes slicing a chore. The easy solution? Premade grub that ﬁts in a bun or wrap, or meat served on the bone, like drumsticks.

Time your party right. Arrive at least three to four hours before kickoff for plenty of time to take in the fun. Afterward, set out chairs, drinks, and leftovers so folks can nibble and rehash the game while waiting for trafﬁc to clear.

Mark your territory. A tent with your team’s logo will get lost in the crowd. Make it easy for friends to find you by attaching a unique flag or inflatable item to your car or tent.

MMMMMMMMMM PARADE PRESENTS

The 2011 Tailgating Awards Our favorite pregame parties and traditions from around the country

The “Fifth Quarter” at the University of Wisconsin For Badgers fans, the party doesn’t end after the clock winds down. Since the early 1970s, the marching band has taken the ﬁeld for a “ﬁfth quarter,” during which fans sing and dance to tunes ranging from Top 40 hits to the crowd pleasers “On, Wisconsin!” and “You’ve Said It All.”

Most Scenic Setting

The University of Washington Husky Stadium is located on the shores of Lake Washington, and before every game, hundreds of boats make up a tailgating ﬂotilla. One popular route passes by the houseboats made famous in Sleepless in Seattle before turning toward the city skyline and the majestic Cascade Mountains.

Most Finger-Licking Food

Louisiana State University Forget burgers and brats—outside Tiger Stadium, you’re more likely to ﬁnd French Quarter favorites like spicy alligator, gumbo, and shrimp étouffée. No wonder Sports Illustrated once gave the school an A rating for tailgate eats.

AND THE BAND PLAYS ON The University of Wisconsin marching band entertains the stadium crowd during the postgame “ﬁfth quarter.”

Most Luxurious Digs

The University of South Carolina’s “Cockabooses” In 1990, steel magnate Ed Robinson installed 22 gutted cabooses on the dormant railroad tracks outside Williams-Brice stadium and sold them for $40,000 apiece. Gamecocks devotees snatched up these “Cockabooses” and decked out the interiors in high style; they’re now the site of pregame “railgating.”

Biggest Transformation

Penn State University During every home game, State College, Pa. (population: 40,000), triples in size to become the third-largest city in all of Pennsylvania. Students camp outside Beaver Stadium for days beforehand, helping create an enormous tent city known as Paternoville (named for longserving coach Joe Paterno). WHICH OTHER SCHOOLS TOOK TOP HONORS?

on over and have a drink, have something to eat.’” “Well, there was once this girl in a low-cut dress, from Florida,” says Karen. “Momma didn’t want her to stop.” After graduating from Ole Miss, Karen went on to get her master’s degree at the University of Memphis and her doctorate at the University of Tennessee, but it is Ole Miss that has her heart and loyalty. That may be because Ole Miss, which had only about 10,000 students when she was in school, was just small enough to wrap her arms around. But more likely, it was in her before she ever climbed into that magnolia tree in the Grove as a girl. There is a deep sense of belonging underneath this tent.

uge spreads are laid out at stadiums around the country. At the University of Alabama, bigscreen TVs are hauled into tents just for the pregame show. At Louisiana State University, whole blue crabs bob in steaming vats of gumbo. At the University of Florida, mini concerts break out under the trees; one journalism professor there is fond of belting out “Don’t the Girls All Get Prettier at Closing Time?” At Texas A&M, big rib-eyes balance on the knees of the faithful, who use one hand to steady their dinner and the other to hold a sweating glass of bourbon and Coke, bourbon and everything. Outside the stadium at Boise State, it looks like a blue bomb went continued on page 20 Visit us at PARADE.COM

Women’s Health

Which fruit can help prevent osteoporosis?

(a) Blueberries (b) Pomegranates (c) Apples (d) Prunes Answer: (d). Florida State University researchers found that women who eat 6 to 10 prunes a day have signiﬁcantly higher bone density than women who nosh on other fruit. “Prunes are rich in potassium and boron, which are known to increase bone mass,” says study author Bahram H. Arjmandi.

True or false? After menopause, women should see their dentist more often.

True or false? Snagging a piece of your kids’ Halloween candy could help you live longer.

Answer: True. A new study from Case Western Reserve University found that women in this age group are at greater risk for periodontal disease and need frequent professional cleanings— up to four a year—to remove the hard plaque that can trigger gum disease and weaken jaw bones.

Answer: True. A study from the Harvard School of Public Health found that those who eat sweet treats a few times a month live longer than those who just say no to sugar. Researchers believe that people who indulge every now and then may be less likely to binge.

Which piece of Mom’s advice has been scientiﬁcally found to reduce stress in females?

How many hours of shut-eye per night do women need, on average, for a long, healthy life?

True or false? Most women who get breast cancer have a family history of the disease.

(a) “Eat your vegetables.” (b) “Stand up straight.” (c) “Wear clean underwear.” (d) “Call your mother.” Answer: (d). Recent research from the University of Wisconsin suggests that simply hearing Mom’s voice at the end of the line can boost a child’s levels of oxytocin, a bonding hormone that helps reduce stress.

IF YOU OFTEN PUT YOUR FAMILY’S WELLNESS BEFORE YOUR OWN, READ ON: IT’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TO HELP KEEP YOURSELF IN THE PINK, TOO! By Colleen Oakley • Illustrations by Matthew Hollister

(a) 6 hours (b) 7 hours (c) 8 hours Answer: (a). A 14-year study by the University of California, San Diego, found that when it comes to longevity, the sweet spot is between ﬁve and six and a half hours each night—any more or less could shave time off your life. Scientists say the results should allay anxiety for women who fear they aren’t getting enough zzz’s.

Answer: False. More than 75 percent of women with breast cancer have no family history of the disease. It’s important for all

women to be screened yearly beginning at age 40.

What’s the biggest health threat for women under 40?

Scientists have found that “supermoms” are at a higher risk for which condition?

(a) Childbirth (b) Accidents (c) Cervical cancer Answer: (b). Look twice before crossing the street! According to the CDC, accidents are the leading cause of death in women ages 19 to 39. “Most of those deaths are due to car crashes, but falls, drownings, and ﬁrearms are also to blame,” says Dr. Hope Ricciotti, author of The Real Life Body Book.

(a) Depression (b) Migraines (c) Ulcers (d) All of the above Answer: (a). A new study of 1,600 women found that working moms who try to “do it all” and set unrealistically high standards in balancing work and family are more likely to suffer from depression. But working mothers who cut themselves some slack have a lower

AN EASY TWIST ON BURGER NIGHT? COMIN’ RIGHT UP. French Onion Burgers

Prep: 5 min. Cook: 20 min. Makes: 4 servings 1 lb. ground beef 1 can (10 1/2 oz.) Campbell’s® Condensed French Onion Soup

4 slices cheese 4 Pepperidge Farm® Sandwich Buns with Sesame Seeds, split

1. Shape beef into 4 ( 1/2"-thick) burgers. 2. Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Add burgers and cook until well browned on both sides. Remove burgers from skillet. Pour off fat. 3.

risk of depression compared to both their Type A and stayat-home counterparts.

Which of the following can delay the onset of menopause?

(a) Eating a healthy diet (b) Having children (c) Reducing stress (d) None of the above Answer: (d). “Apart from smoking or receiving cancer treatments like chemotherapy, nothing can trigger—or slow down—the timing of menopause,” says Dr. Samuel Wood, medical director at the Reproductive Sciences Center in San Diego. Ninetyﬁve percent of American women will hit menopause between the ages of 44 and 56, and the exact age of onset is largely determined by your genes, says Wood.

A daily glass of which beverage can help women stay slim?

(a) Milk (b) Beer (c) Cranberry juice (d) Diet soda Answer: (b). Though overindulging in alcohol can add unwanted pounds, a new study found that women who sipped one to two glasses a day were less likely to gain weight than those who abstained completely. Turns out that women who drink alcohol usually consume fewer calories from other beverages, says study author Dr. Lu Wang. Cheers!

True or false? Birth control pills can affect your memory.

Answer: True. A study from the University of California, Irvine, found that women on the Pill are better at remembering the big picture, while women not taking oral contraceptives are better at recalling detailed facts. Why? Hormones like progesterone and estrogen are linked to a stronger left brain—and that’s the hemisphere responsible for linear 18 • October 16, 2011

Which health issue costs women the most money (in diagnosis and treatment) every year?

(a) Incontinence (b) Breast cancer (c) The ďŹ&#x201A;u Answer: (a). More than 38 percent of women suffer from urinary incontinence; these women pay more than $20 billion per year to manage the condition. One way to reduce your risk: cut your coffee intake. Caffeine stimulates urine production and acts as a bladder irritant.

(a) Heavy Purseâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;itis (b) Tingling Thigh Syndrome (c) Stiletto Toe Answer: (b). Skinny jeans are often to blame for Tingling Thigh Syndrome, a temporary condition that occurs when the nerve running across the outside of your thigh becomes compressed, causing your leg to feel as if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone to sleep, says Dr. Gary Gronseth, chief of neurology inpatient service at the University of Kansas Hospital.

off; there are blue-painted faces, happy and expectant, everywhere you turn. In the Northeast, the tailgating grill is not just a place for food but a place to keep warm, as New Yorkers and New Englanders wonder not whether they will beat their opponents but how bad the drubbing will be. But at Ole Miss, in the footballobsessed South, the tailgating celebration isn’t just about the game; it’s about tradition, in the grandest sense.

OLE MISS GAME PROGRAMS, circa the 1950s.

And for the Comer-Yawn bunch, the preparations take days. “If it’s an early game [around noon], there are sausage balls, blueberry mufﬁns, coffee cake, fruits, relish trays … and Bloody Marys and mimosas,” says Nannette Comer. “We buy groceries on Thursday, and cook Friday.

“ FARMING TAKES A LOT OF DISCIPLINE, BUT SOLDIERS ARE USED TO IT.”

Hope Grows Here HOW ONE SOLDIER-TURNED-FARMER IS HELPING VETERANS CULTIVATE NEW LIVES By Jerry Camarillo Dunn Jr.

years, the onetime star athlete had trouble staying on his feet when he walked because of a ruptured eardrum. He was also gripped by intense anxiety. Doctors diagnosed Burke

with an alphabet soup of problems, including TBI (traumatic brain injury), PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), and hypertension. He and Michele traveled, and he spent “a couple years feeling sorry for myself ” before ﬁnding his way to his parents’ farm in Webster, Fla.—ironically the very place he’d sought to escape when he joined the army at age 17. His family gave him a two-

functions, which had been impaired due to his injuries, steadily improved. After a year and a half, he was able to put aside his cane. One day he was struck by an idea: Since farming had benefited him physically and mentally, perhaps it could help other soldiers, too. He also thought it could address another problem faced by returning members of the military: unemployment. The jobless rate for the most recent vets is nearly 10 percent. And farming’s challenging lifestyle is actually a good fit for former troops. Burke notes, “It takes a lot of discipline to get up at five in the morning and work hard, but soldiers are used to it.” He relied on word of mouth to publicize his farm, and within four months, veterans—some of them disabled—began finding their way there. When Burke saw that the men in wheelchairs were unable to pick berries from bushes at ground level, he put plants in tall pots they could

Farm, you head west out of Jacksonville, Fla., on a route that gradually changes from busy beltway to country highway to one-lane blacktop and, finally, to dirt before you reach an open field surrounded by piney woods. For out-of-town visitors, it can seem a long way to travel. But for the man who runs the farm, former U.S. Army Sgt. Adam Burke, 34, the road there has been far longer. Seven years ago, he was an infantryman in Iraq, at the tail end of a deployment that had felt like a 16-month descent through the circles of hell. “Two weeks before I was due to go home in May 2004, my unit was running a mission in the Sunni Triangle,” Burke says. “Ass we crossed a street, one of my guys got shot. I stepped out to pull him to cover, and the enemy started firing.” Shrapnel tore into his head and legs. (Burke was later awarded a Purple Heart for hiss injuries.) “I was lying in n the street,” he recalls. “II prayed, ‘Lord, if you get et me home to see my family at least one more time, I promise that I’ll make my life worth saving.’ ” Recovering in the U.S. with the help of Michele, his wife of nine

at the new farm, you can find veterans of conflicts ranging from the Korean War to the war in Iraq busy tending the soil. The camaraderie at the farm has been a source of comfort for returning soldiers trying to leave bad memories behind. Shaun Valdivia, a 26-year-old marine, came back from Afghanistan with TBI and PTSDâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and a lot of guilt. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why was I left relatively unscathed while my friends died or got seriously hurt?â&#x20AC;? he wondered. Valdivia, who felt isolated from civilian friends because of his combat experiences, was relieved to meet other recent vets at Burkeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helped so much to get things off my chest.â&#x20AC;?

But it is worth it. “Southern women being southern women, if we’re going to do something, we’re going to do it right,” says her daughter Karen. “If Ole Miss is playing, we’re there, our children are there. Our grandchildren have grown up with it,” says Nannette. “It keeps us close,” adds Karen. “For at least seven Saturdays in the fall, my kids will see their grandparents.” For many of those kids, the words to the Ole Miss cheer are the ﬁrst words they learn, after “Mommy” and “Daddy.” It is inescapable in the Grove. People walk by, tip a glass, and belt it out: Hotty Toddy, Gosh A’mighty, Who in the hell are we? Flim-ﬂam, bim-bam, Ole Miss, by damn! “My grandmother, Fannie Yawn, so much the lady in her gloves and hat, said it was the

grandchildren feel at home here. It just keeps going.” One of the grandest tailgating experiences is the Ole Miss game against Mississippi State, around Thanksgiving Day. Karen remembers being puzzled as a child at pictures of families gathered around a formal dining table for Thanksgiving. Her only Thanksgivings were in the Grove, or at an away game. “What is this Norman Rockwell stuff?” she wondered. At some schools, the whole mood of fall Saturdays swings on the game’s outcome, and it is that way to some extent in the Grove. “Daddy keeps a bottle of champagne in the cooler for when we win the Alabama game,” says Karen. “We haven’t opened it in a while,” her father admits. Like the other faithful, he waits for a return to the days when every Saturday was a wild celebration. But in a way, he says, every Saturday at the Grove is a celebration, if not of football, then of family. Tailgating has become a kind of antidote for when the Rebels lose. “I guess you’ve heard it said,” says Nannette, “that at Ole Miss we might lose the game, but we never lose the party.” October 16, 2011 • 27

ENJOY THE SOUND EVEN MORE. The highly reviewed Bose® Wave® music system is available with an optional Multi-CD Changer. When the Bose Wave® music system was introduced, audio writer Wayne Thompson of the Oregonian called it “one-of-a-kind” and “my choice for product of the year.” Today, the system offers you even more, thanks to an optional Multi-CD Changer that has been designed exclusively for the Wave® music system. Elegantly small, with sound that brings new life to music. Hear the Wave® music system for yourself. Murray Hill of the Postmedia News Service says that “Everyone is astonished...You can hear every nuance.” You can even connect your TV or iPod® for lifelike sound. As Mathieu Yuill of Driven says, “It can be difficult to marry engineering and style but Bose pulls it off with their compact Wave.” And this small system fits almost anywhere.

The optional Multi-CD Changer lets you enjoy premium sound for hours on end. Just slide one of your favorite CDs or MP3 CDs into the Wave® music system and three more into the Multi-CD Changer. They work as one to deliver performance after encore performance with quality that AudioVideo International says “ups the ante on big sound from small boxes.” All-in-one simplicity. A credit card-style remote control lets you easily operate both the Wave® music system and the Multi-CD Changer. It’s a convenience you’ll appreciate when playing CDs or MP3 CDs, tuning into FM/AM radio or setting the clock and alarm.

Take advantage of our 30-day, risk-free trial. Choose your favorite color: Platinum White, Graphite Gray or Titanium Silver. And order the Wave® music system today. Better yet, order it with our Multi-CD Changer. We’ll give you 30 days to try them in your own home.
