TIDBITS BRINGS YOU INFO ABOUT ®

ISLANDS

by Kathy Wolfe

Did you know that one in six people lives on an island? This week, Tidbits takes a little island getaway, bringing you facts about “any land mass completely surrounded by water.”

• Not all islands are alike! Continental islands lie on the shelf of a continent, for example, Greenland, which lies on the shelf of North America, and Great Britain on that of Europe. Oceanic islands do not sit on a continental shelf. Most, such as the Hawaiian Islands, were formed by volcanic activity.

The Hawaiian Islands, a 137-island chain, are the exposed peaks of a massive undersea mountain range. They were visited by British explorer Captain James Cook in 1778, and he dubbed them the Sandwich Islands after his friend, the Fourth Earl of Sandwich, John Montagu.

• Each of the eight main Hawaiian Islands has a nickname. The largest, Hawaii, is of course, the Big Island. Next in size, Maui, is the Valley Isle, followed by Oahu, the Gathering Place. Fourth in size, Kauai is the Garden Isle, Molokai is the Friendly Isle, Lanai is nicknamed the Pineapple Isle, Niihau is the Forbidden Isle, and the smallest of the eight, Kaho’olawe is the Target Isle.

ISLANDS (continued):

• Although Australia is completely surrounded by water, geographically it is considered a continent rather than an island. It’s not only too big to be formally classified as an island, it also sits on its own tectonic plate.

Because of this, the title of world’s largest island goes to Greenland, a continental island lying on North America’s continental shelf.

• Located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, Greenland has an area of 836,330 square miles, with 81% of that area covered by an ice sheet. If that ice sheet were to melt away completely, the sea level of the world would rise by more than 23 feet.

Most of the island’s 57,600 people live along the coasts, the only areas that are ice-free. It’s the most sparsely populated country in the world.

Although Greenland’s main export is shrimp, the island is rich in natural resources, including zinc, lead, iron, gold, and platinum. Even diamonds are mined there.

• Contrast Greenland’s population of 57,600 in 836,330 square miles with that of Sumatra. Sumatra’s area equals about 21% of Greenland’s, yet this island is home to 50 million people!

Located in Indonesia, Sumatra is the world’s sixth largest island, but is the world’s largest volcanic island.

• Just south of the Arctic Circle is the second largest volcanic island, Iceland, home to the world’s largest concentration of geysers. Over 14% of its surface is covered by lakes and glaciers, and there are 130 volcanic mountains on the island. Iceland has the second-highest quality of life in the world, as well as one of the world’s highest life expectancies.

A hungry lion was roaming through the jungle looking for something to eat.

He came across two men. One was sitting under a tree reading a book; the other was typing away on his typewriter. The lion quickly pounced on the man reading the book and devoured him.

Even the king of the jungle knows that readers digest, and writers cramp.

ISLANDS (continued):

• Sitting in the mouth of the Amazon River in Brazil is Maraj_, the world’s largest island that is completely surrounded by fresh water. It’s about one-third the size of New York state, and compares in size to Switzerland. About 250,000 live on Maraj_, which lies right on the equator.

• The official name for a group, cluster, or collection of geographically-related islands is archipelago.

Familiar archipelagos include the Canary Islands, the Bahamas, the Caymans, Indonesia, the British Isles, and the Philippines. The Philippines consist of more than 7,100 islands. Total land area is about the same as the state of Arizona, yet its population exceeds 97 million people. About 20 measurable earthquakes occur there daily. Over 170 individual languages are spoken in the Philippines.

• The Guinness Book of Records lists Bishop Rock as the world’s smallest island with a building on it. It’s 151 feet long by 52.5 feet wide and is situated at the end of Britain’s Isles of Scilly, 30 miles from England. Bishop has nothing but an uninhabited 160-ft tall lighthouse, completed in 1858. The Rock has been the cause of many shipwrecks over the decades, including one wreck resulting in 2,000 deaths. The lighthouse’s last keepers left in 1992, and it has operated automatically since then.

• One of America’s newest national parks is located 60 miles off the coast of southern California. Channel Islands National Park was named such in 1980, and is home to the largest accumulation of blue whales in the world. The last permanent lighthouse in the country was built on the archipelago’s 699-acre Anacapa Island in 1932.

ISLANDS (continued): • There are 6,852 islands in the nation of Japan. Its capital city Tokyo is the largest metropolitan area in the world with a population of over 30 million people. There are 109 active volcanoes throughout the islands, more than any other country. Its location at the junction of four tectonic plates makes Japan vulnerable to powerful earthquakes and tsunamis. The March, 2011 earthquake, which registered 8.9 on the Richter scale, was the cause of nearly 16,000 deaths.

Japan has a 100% literacy rate, one of the world’s highest life expectancies, and a remarkably low crime rate.

• From the mid-1700s until the late 1830s, Massachusetts’ Nantucket Island was the whaling capital of the world.

About 150 whaling ships made port there during that time. Today this 47.8-sqmile (124 sq. km) island is most famous today as a tourist destination. During the summer months the population swells from 10,000 to 50,000. Its home values are listed as among the highest in the U.S. • Not every island is formed by natural forces. Japan’s Kansai International Airport is located on an artificial island in Osaka Bay, a project that began in 1987. Rock and 48,000 concrete blocks form a seawall around the island, for which three mountains were excavated for the layer of earth over the sea floor.

The airport opened in 1994. Dubai, United Arab Emirates, is in the midst of creating the Palm Islands, a chain of artificial islands shaped like palm trees, constructed from sand dredged from the bottom of the Persian Gulf.

• An island that has formed on the surface of a coral reef is called a cay, while one that forms by deposits of sediment in a river is called an eyot. A small rocky island, usually too small for habitation, is known as a skerry.

● It was lexicographer Samuel Johnson who made the following sage observation: “Always, set a high value on spontaneous kindness. He whose inclination prompts him to cultivate your friendship of his own accord, will love you more than one whom you have been at pains to attach to you.” ● On Jan. 31, 2013, it officially became legal for women to wear pants in Paris.

Before that, a law on the books only allowed women to wear pants if they were “holding a bicycle handlebar or the reins of a horse,” or if they had requested special permission from the police to dress like men.

CR Community Concerts Delights Sold Out Crowd The Cedar Rapids Community Concert Association kicked off its 83rd season Sunday, October 13, with the Italian Saxophone Quartet playing to a sold out crowd at the Paramount Theatre.

“We are thrilled with the outstanding community support,” said Bruce Western, CRCCA president. “Our mission is to provide quality entertainment at a cost everyone can afford, and the community responded.”

Members pay one low price for the season’s series of five concerts. This season, a member can attend all five concerts for just $40. And, as a bonus, attend the Metro Community Concerts five-performance series at Cedar Fall’s Gallagher-Bluedorn absolutely free.

“We sold out quickly this year,” said Western.

“We encourage everyone to keep an eye out for next season’s membership drive and order their memberships early.”

Sons of the Pioneers on November 3rd was another great performance. Superb harmonies and brilliant arrangements of classic cowboy favorites like Tumbling Tumbleweed, Cool Water, and Ghost Riders in the Sky, - truly fun for the whole family.

But don’t despair. Lucky Tidbits readers still have a chance to attend one of this season’s exciting concerts.

Thank You for the Music continues the season on January 28, 2014 with the unforgettable hits of ABBA. Dancing Queen, Waterloo, Take a Chance on Me, Fernando and Mamma Mia are only the beginning of this nostalgic musical journey.

Then, on March 2, 2014, relive time-tested favorites through dazzling production numbers - new hit shows and all-time classics – with Back on Broadway Quality, personality, and virtuosity closes the season on May 4, 2014, with the Rodney Mack Philadelphia Big Brass – a veritable “dream team” of virtuoso brass players playing an awe-inspiring musical experience.

Be sure to enter the weekly drawing for two tickets to an upcoming CRCCA performance.

This is your opportunity to attend one of CRCCA’s fantastic performances this season at the beautiful Paramount Theatre.

FAMOUS WOMEN OF THE WORLD:

PEARL S. BUCK

The Good Earth won the Pulitzer Prize for literature in 1932 and continues as one of the most popular novels of all time. How much do you know about its author, Pearl S. Buck? Here are some details about this prolific writer.

• Pearl Sydenstricker was born to Southern Presbyterian missionaries in 1892. Although they were stationed in China, Pearl was born during a U.S. furlough, but moved to China at three months of age. Her mother had established a dispensary in China, where she ministered to Chinese women, while Pearl’s father spent months in the Chinese country side seeking converts.

•

Pearl attended a women’s college in Lynchburg, Virginia, then returned to China shortly afterward to care for her ailing mother.

After marrying an agricultural economist, the Bucks held teaching positions at China’s Nanking University.

• The couple welcomed a daughter, Carol, in 1921, who was a victim of Phenylketonura, or PKU, a genetic disorder that left her profoundly mentally challenged. Carol’s specialized care required large amounts of money, and the Bucks’ financial situation became so perilous that Pearl, a born storyteller, began writing to earn extra income. In the 1920s, she published essays and stories in several magazines.

• Times were tense in China in the 1920s, and in 1927, she and her husband narrowly escaped a violent battle known as the Nanking Incident. They were rescued by American gunboats, and spent a year in Japan before moving back to a turbulent China.

• Pearl’s first novel East Wind, West Wind, was published when she was 38 in 1930. The following year, The Good Earth, the novel that would bring her international fame, was published. Having lived in China for most of her life, Pearl had plenty of experience in writing the story of impoverished Chinese farmers struggling to survive. The novel was the best-selling book of both 1931 and 1932, and was translated into 30 languages, and was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1932. In 1937, the MGM film version, three years in the making, was released and was nominated for five Academy Awards. A 500-acre California farm was transformed into a replica of a Chinese farm for the movie. Years later, the book regained popularity when it was chosen by television host Oprah Winfrey for Oprah’s Book Club.

• Two books followed to make The Good Earth into a trilogy, Sons in 1932, and A House Divided in 1935.

• Needing better care for her daughter, Pearl, single after 18 years, moved to the U.S. permanently in 1933. She returned to school and earned a second Master’s degree. All the while she continued to write and in 1938, she became the first American women to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. Most of her writing featured China as the setting.

• Pearl later married an editor from her publisher’s company, and the couple adopted six children during their 25 years together.

Over the course of her life, she published over 70 books, story collections, an autobiography, poetry, children’s books, and a cookbook. When she passed away in 1973, her tombstone of her own design featured her name inscribed in Chinese characters.

• Maltese: These tiny spaniels are easy to identify thanks to their long, silky coats. The American Kennel Club groups them with other “Toy PageDogs” 6 like E n t Pugs e r t hand e weekly drawings at w w w. t i d b i t papers. c o m for a chance to win free gift certificates!

is going up 1.5 percent for its 57 million beneficiaries. For those who receive an average benefit of $1272, the increase will be a whopping $19 per month.

Other changes for 2014 include: Income subject to Social Security taxation will increase to $117,000 from $113,700. Above that amount, and your contribution to Social Security does not go up.

For those who are less than full retirement age (which is age 66 for those born between 1943 and 1954) and receive Social Security benefits, the limit on earnings will be $15,480. Income above that will see deductions of benefits of $1 for every $2 earned. Those who turn age 66 in 2014 will have an earned income cap of $41,400, with $1 deducted for every $3 earned over that amount for the months until they reach full retirement age.

Those who are the full retirement age for the whole year will have no benefits deducted for any income earned.

Medicare’s Part B premium, however, will stay the same as in 2013, which is $104.90 (for those with incomes of less than $85,000). If you received the email saying the premium will go up to $247 per month, don’t worry. The email was a fake and has been on the Internet for three years now.

Let’s look at what that $19 Social Security COLA increase will buy: Onethird of a week’s worth of groceries on the USDA Moderate Food Plan. You can stretch that to a half week of groceries if you stick to the Thrifty Food Plan (and eat more potatoes and less meat).
