by Janet Spencer On January 24, 1935, the first beer in cans was placed on sale in Richmond, Virginia. In honor of that event, come along with Tidbits as we take a look at beer! A CRUCIAL INVENTION • Ermal Cleon Fraze, born in 1913, grew up to found a tool and die company in the mid 1940s called Reliable Tool and Manufacturing Company. He invented a wide variety of products for clients including General Electric, Ford, and even NASA. But his most famous invention came as a result of a picnic in 1959. • Ermal had brought plenty of beer to the picnic, but he had forgotten the can opener, which, at that time, was the only way to crack open a cold one. He was forced to resort to opening the cans using the bumper of his car. “There oughta be a better way,” he thought to himself. • Several months later, he couldn’t sleep, so he got up to spend a few hours puttering in his workshop. The result of his tinkering was the first pop-top pulltab can. He received a patent for it in 1963, selling the invention to Alcoa. The first customer to use the new pull-tab can was the Pittsburgh Brewing Company, makers of Iron City Beer. By 1975, 75% of U.S. breweries were using them.

Q: How does a man show he's planning for the future? A: He buys two cases of Beer instead of one.
Soda Fizzes; Beer Foams
• Why does soda fizz whereas beer foams? It’s caused by the chemical processes that occur during fermentation. Fizzing and foaming both involve carbon dioxide rising to the surface, but soda pop is not fermented as beer is. Brewer’s yeast feeds upon the sugar in the ‘wort’ which is the sugary substance in malt, which comes from barley. The yeast gives off carbon dioxide as a by-product. During fermentation, that carbon dioxide dissolves into the liquid. When the pressure is released when a can or bottle is opened, the carbon dioxide rises to the surface. The chemical reactions that have occurred between the carbon dioxide and the proteins in the wort make the bubbles last much longer than the bubbles in pop, champagne, or cider.

• Alcohol inhibits the production of antidiuretic hormone ADH, so the kidneys don’t receive the normal signals from the brain. They go on drawing water out of the bloodstream at a constant rate because they are not told to stop. This dehydrates the body. That’s why thirst is a main symptom of a hangover. A good way to diminish a hangover is to drink a couple quarts of water before going to bed. Coffee is not a good thing to drink after getting drunk because caffeine is also an ADH inhibitor, and coffee messes up the signals to the kidneys too. Coffee has never sobered anybody up. Alcohol plus coffee equals a wide-awake drunk.
What organization collects pop tabs for charity reasons? A: Ronald McDonald House Charities Ronald McDonald House Charities collect pop tabs to raise money to build Ronald McDonald houses. They collect only the pop tabs because, unlike the cans themselves, the tabs are pure aluminum. Also, because the pop tabs are easier to store than the cans

• Frothingslosh was a brand of beer made by Iron City Brewing of Pittsburgh exclusively at Christmas time. The advertisements breathlessly exclaimed, “Oh, my gosh, it’s Frothingslosh!” It was billed as the “pale, stale ale with the foam on the bottom.” How did they get the foam on the bottom? They pasted the label on upsidedown. • A little cobalt is absolutely necessary for good health, but a lot can kill. Brewers in Quebec and Omaha at one time added cobalt salts to their beer because it gave the brew a better head. When beer drinkers began dropping dead, the practice was halted. • When escape artist Houdini attempted to escape from a large can filled with beer, the stunt nearly ended in disaster when he was overcome by the carbon dioxide. The alert stage manager noted the lack of sounds coming from inside the can and released him in the nick of time. • One kind of male Australian beetle always seeks out the largest female to mate with. An Australian beer manufacturer unwittingly made their beer bottles in the shape and color of the female beetle, albeit at a fantastically large size. When it was brought to the company’s attention that thousands of male beetles were trying to mate with discarded beer bottles, they redesigned the bottle. • In the course of the 1949 British Open, Harry Bradshaw drove a ball into a beer bottle by accident. The ball broke the bottle’s neck and ended up inside the bottom of the bottle. Rather than risk a penalty, Bradshaw decided to play it where it lay. He smashed the bottle with his club. The bottle traveled about 30 feet.

TOOLS 4 LIFE
We have many bouquets in all price ranges.
BY DR. JIM COYLE Humility Optimism Energy
Computer services include:
We all have values (personal beliefs and choices) that influence our behavior. Our core values are the values that are constantly ranked higher than others. When our values are compromised we have waves in our lives that can bring havoc in many different forms; anxieties, stress, depression, overreacting, sickness, etc… We must have a home base that will keep us safe and true to our values. Jesus said “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” If we can learn to use the Word to influence our values, we will be centered, peaceful, and purposeful. Three core values I am inviting you to choose with me are Humility (looking at others interests as more important than mine), Optimism (all things are working together to mature me and complete me), and Energy (I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength). A HOE is a tool used to keep the soil turned up and the weeds (core busters) out. Allow the Holy Spirit to keep your soil fresh and the core busters out.

WORD ORIGINS
• The focal point of Irish social life is the pub. This is a term derived from ‘public house.’ At pubs, beer is served by the pint or the quart, which are abbreviated ‘P’ and ‘Q’ on the patron’s bar tab. If a bar owner was concerned that someone was running up too much of a bill, he might tell the person to ‘mind your Ps and Qs.’ A tab was often called a ‘scot’ and if the owner lost the scot or forgot to write the drink down on the scot, the drinker got off ‘scotfree.’ • In the 1830s a temperance society in Michigan was campaigning against the evils of drink. They offered their members two pledges: one was a pledge of moderate drinking, the other was a pledge of total abstinence. On the membership rolls those who had made pledges were identified as either “O.P.” for those who had taken the “Old Pledge” to drink moderately, or “T-Total” for those who embraced total abstinence. This group eventually became known as Teetotalers. • In sailing, a sheet is a line that attaches to the lower corner of a sail. When you pull the sheet in, the sail is tight against the wind and the ship sails quickly. When you let the sheet out, the sail sags and flaps in the wind and the ship comes to a standstill. A ship that has “three sheets to the wind” is floating helplessly in the water, just as a person who has had too many drinks is helpless.

When Ermal Fraze first invented the pull tab in 1962, it popped all the way off, so it increased litter, as everyone would throw it onto the ground, and others would choke on the tab when it fell into the can. He then made a improved pull tab that stayed on the can, much like ours today.

Don’t go out with a fake ID or drink on a college campus if you’re under 21, unless you’re prepared to deal with the legal repercussions. If you’re breaking the law, you’re not being responsible.

Oh boy, Capricorn. The winter blues set in, and it’s up to you to boost everyone’s spirits. An inexpensive activity outdoors might do just the trick.
Will you, or won’t you? Time will tell this week, Cancer. No news from home is good news. Leave things be. A test in patience turns out to be a blessing in disguise.

July 23– August 22
Creativity abounds, and the pace picks up considerably. Enjoy, Aquarius. A lacy antique gift brings a touch of elegance to your home.
February 19– March 20
Times are changing, Pisces. Go with the flow. A last-ditch effort to restore harmony to your home works. Cook up something special to celebrate.
March 21– April 19
Fess up, Aries. All of the sneaking around has raised suspicions, and if you don’t let the cat out of the bag, the surprise is going to be on you.
April 20– May 20
Surely, Taurus, you can help. When a cause comes calling, don’t miss out! Amazing things are in store. A deadline is extended to make way for a new arrival.
May 21– June 21 Revenue increases, and budget woes come to an end. Yahoo, Gemini! Look to a mentor for guidance to put the surplus to good use. A furry friend alleviates loneliness.
Watch it, Leo. Careful deliberation is required. The slightest of miscalculations could land you in a world of trouble. A charity could use a donation.
August 23– September 22 Shh, Virgo. Make sure you keep what you are about to discover under wraps. Travel plans begin to take shape with the help of someone you least expect.
September 23– October 22
Prep work is key to completing a home improvement project right. Don’t dismiss it, Libra. A special date draws near. Look to a friend for direction.
October 23– November 21
Misunderstood you may feel, but misunderstood you are not. Your friends know you. Give them the benefit of the doubt, Scorpio. Chores stack up.
November 22– December 21
Your vast knowledge is impressive, but don’t overdo it, Sagittarius. Use what you know, and you’ll gain friends. Flaunt it, and you’ll risk alienation.
• Susannah Oland and her nine children left England in 1865, heading for Nova Scotia, where her husband John James Oland had gotten a job on the railroad. Susannah brewed beer in the backyard, as most people did in a day and age where drinking water could be dangerous due to contamination. But Susannah’s beer was excellent, and soon people were urging her to go into business. • In 1867 a small brewery went up for sale, and Susannah and John Oland bought it. Although the business was named James Oland & Son, it was Susannah who managed it. When John died in a riding accident in 1870, Susannah was forced to sell of majority interest in the brewery. However, seven years later she came into an inheritance after the death of a relative. She used the money to start a new brewery, renaming it ‘S. Oland, Sons, & Co.’ to hide the fact that a woman was in charge. Her sons, Conrad and George, helped run it. Eight years later, the brewery was lost– twice– due to fire. They rebuilt each time. • The local military personnel were her best customers, leading to a name change to the Army and Navy Brewery. When Susannah died in the year 1886, her sons renamed the business again, calling it the Maritime Brewing & Malting Co. • In 1917, an explosion of a munitions ship in Halifax harbor wiped out most of the town. The blast killed nearly 2,000 people, including Conrad Oland. The brewery was ruined. Within a year, George re-opened in a different part of Halifax, using the insurance money. A second plant began production in Saint John, New Brunswick, in 1928. This location is currently company headquarters. • In 1931, George introduced a pale ale he dubbed Moosehead. It became so popular that in 1947 the company was renamed for a final time, becoming Moosehead Breweries. • Through the years, the business evolved as it was managed by a continuing succession of Susannah’s descendents. Computers now control production. Hydraulic valves have replaced hand valves. Computer monitors now stand where control panels used to be. The facility in Saint John now cranks out 1,600 twelve-ounce bottles per minute. • Today, the Moosehead Brewery is run by two sixth-generation descendants, with Andrew Oland as CEO and Patrick Oland as CFO. Although it’s largely run by the male descendents of Susannah, Patrick Oland insists that the Quality Control department is populated mostly by women, because he feels they have a more sensitive palate. • Andrew Oland says, “My father, Derek, says that beer is a reward for hard work. It doesn’t matter whether you’ve just mowed the lawn, it’s Friday night and you’ve finished a tough week of work, or you’re getting together with friends. To me, it’s every time that you’ve worked hard and you’ve accomplished something and you want to reward yourself and celebrate your success.” • The company brews a number of beers aside from Moosehead Pale Ale, including labels such as Barking Squirrel, Cracked Canoe, and Lawn Chair. • Moosehead is now Canada’s oldest and largest brewery, as well as being the only independently family owned brewery in the country. The company currently employs about 350 people in New Brunswick. Greatgreat-great Grandma Susannah would be proud.

MOMENTS IN TIME ● On Jan. 23, 1957, the Wham-O toy company rolls out the first batch of aerodynamic plastic discs, now known as Frisbees. The story of the Frisbee began in Bridgeport, Conn., where students from nearby universities would throw empty Frisbie Pie Company tins to each other, yelling “Frisbie!” as they let go. 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.
● On Jan. 25, 1924, the first Winter Olympics begin at Chamonix in the French Alps. Spectators were thrilled by the ski jump and bobsled, as well as 12 other events involving a total of six sports. ● On Jan. 21, 1976, from London’s Heathrow Airport and Orly Airport outside Paris, the first Concordes with commercial passengers simultaneously take flight to Bahrain in the Persian Gulf and Rio de Janeiro, respectively. The Concordes flew well past the sound barrier at 1,350 mph.
A-1 Home Healthcare Proudly Presents
Senior News Line by Matilda Charles
Comparing Hospital Infection Rates The Medicare Hospital Compare website now provides information about hospital safety into two areas that are especially important to seniors: prevention of Clostridium difficile infections and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bloodstream infections. It gathered this information through the National Healthcare Safety Network at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. C. diff, as it’s called, can be life-threatening, as it causes severe diarrhea, which causes dehydration. It can develop after taking a course of antibiotics or being in a hospital. The spores that cause the illness can stay on surfaces -- bed railings, counters, telephones -- for months. According to the Mayo Clinic, more than a half million people get C. diff every year, and it’s very difficult to treat. Seniors age 65 and older are 10 times more susceptible to C. diff. MRSA isn’t a walk in the park either. It’s a staph infection that resists the antibiotics usually used to treat it. The infection can spread all over the body. It’s usually seen in people who have been in hospitals or healthcare settings, or who have had invasive procedures. In other words, both of these illnesses are serious and potentially life-threatening. If you have your choice of hospitals for a procedure, don’t you want the one that’s more likely to keep you safe from infections? Go to the Hospital Compare site (www. medicare.gov/hospitalcompare) and enter your ZIP code. You can click up to three hospitals to compare. Click Compare Now and then click Readmissions, Complications and Death. Click Healthcare Associated Infections. The information that’s posted now only covers the first three months of 2013, but check back in April 2014 for updates on the next six months. Matilda Charles regrets that she cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into her column whenever possible. Send email to columnreply2@gmail.com.

• The first voyage by the Clermont was met by the public with suspicion.

Why Buy Locally? By Rick Struve I am sure you have seen signs telling you
STRANGE BUT TRUE by Samantha Weaver
● A Louisiana man once caught a grape in his mouth that was tossed from 252 feet away. ● Famed magician Harry Houdini was born with the less-than-inspiring name Erich Weiss. ● There is a planet named Gliese 436b orbiting a red dwarf star. It’s about the size of Neptune, and it’s very, very hot -- roughly 820 degrees Fahrenheit. None of this is terribly unusual; what’s truly surprising is the fact that the planet’s surface is made up largely of ice (with an outer layer of hydrogen and helium) despite the heat. It seems that the gravity and atmospheric pressure are so great that water is forced into a solid form, creating so-called hot ice. (c) 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.

to BUY LOCAL! It obviously helps the local business person, but a more important question is... does it help you? The answer isn't as obvious, but yes – it does help you and your community. The following reasons will bring some light to the subject: Several studies have shown that when you buy from an independent, locally owned business, significantly more of your money is used to make purchases from other local businesses, service providers and farms continuing to strengthen the economic base of the community.

profit organizations receive an average 250% more support from smaller business owners than they do from large businesses.
Keep your community unique:
Where we shop, where we eat and have fun - all of it makes your community home. Your one-of-a-kind businesses are an integral part of the distinctive character of your community. Your tourism businesses also benefit.
Reduce environmental impact:
Locally owned businesses can make more local purchases requiring less transportation and generally set up shop in town or city centers as opposed to developing on the fringe. This generally means contributing less to sprawl, congestion, habitat loss and pollution. Create more good jobs: Small local businesses are the largest employer nationally and in your community. As a result, they provide the most jobs to residents.
Get better service: Local businesses
often hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers.
Invest in community: Local
businesses are owned by people who live in this community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in the community’s future.
Help local companies: When you do shop at larger stores, look for the products produced by local factories – this will keep your local economy strong while keeping friends and neighbors employed. Put your taxes to good use:
Local businesses in town centers require comparatively little infrastructure investment and make more efficient use of public services as compared to nationally owned stores entering the community. America was built on the shoulders of small business. While the days of the 'mom and pop' shops are mostly a thing of the past, there is still so much richness in quality and service that can be gained from your local business – and that is one area the big, inter-national companies just can not duplicate. When possible... BUY LOCAL!

Fun fact about Harry Houdini: Harry Houdini is likely the greatest and most well-known magician of all time. While his tricks are not mindshattering by today's standards like they were during the early days of vaudeville, he was the master showman of his field. He also knew how to promote himself and his efforts are still studied by innumerable magicians of today.

Fun facts about Iowa's winter weather:
●The coldest recorded temperature in Iowa history was 47 degrees below zero. It happened twice, the first, on Jan. 12, 1912, in Washta and the most recent on Jan. 3, 1996, in Elkader. ● The most recent major temperature change in a 24-hour period in the state of Iowa was 65 degrees in Sioux City on Dec. 28, 2013, and Dec. 29, 2013. The high for Dec. 28 was 62 degrees, a record high for that day, and then overnight, the temperature dropped to minus 3 degrees on Dec. 29. -
