OPERA
by Janet Spencer Noted Italian operatic singer Enrico Caruso was born on February 25, 1873. In honor of that event, come along with Tidbits as we attend the opera! ENRICO CARUSO • Caruso was one of the first opera singers to have his voice professionally recorded. He made nearly 300 recordings between 1902 and 1920, which was just before he died. As a result, his recordings are available today on CD or digital download. His 1904 recording of “Vesti la giubba” (“put on the costumes”) from the opera Pagliacci was the first sound recording to sell a million copies. Because of the popularity of his recordings, he was one of the most famous celebrities of his day. • He also made history when he was broadcast live from the stage of the Metropolitan Opera House in 1910 in the first radio broadcast to be publicly transmitted in the United States.

• In 1906, Caruso performed in San Francisco the night before the big earthquake shook the town to its roots. He was so unnerved by the experience that he feared the shock would damage his voice. Standing in the shattered ruins of his hotel, he stood by a broken window, singing at the top of his lungs in order to be sure his voice was unharmed. He swore he’d never return to San Francisco, and he kept his word. (Continued next page)

The most tacky version of Carmen was probably the silent movie version that was made in 1915.
• Many cats reside in the outdoor arena in Verona and in one performance of Carmen, a kitty came out from behind the wings and started rubbing up against Don Jose’s legs, purring and meowing just as he was preparing to murder Carmen. • A performance of Carmen was being staged in Mexico City. The singer playing the part of Don José had a long wait back stage while Acts 3 and 4 progressed, so he decided to dash out to get a beer in a local tavern. No sooner had he entered one than he was arrested by a couple of cops who saw his scruffy clothing and dragged him off to jail. When he informed them he was a tenor singing opera, they informed him he was drunk. He could only convince them by singing his part in the opera.

• Enrico Caruso and Maria Jeritza starred in a production of Carmen in which real horses were used. One horse relieved himself, leaving a huge puddle. When the climactic death scene arrived, Caruso stabbed Maria, but she refused to fall down dead. “Die! Fall will you!” Caruso shouted, and she sang, “I’ll die if you can find me a clean place!” • During one performance of Carmen a dog wandered on stage and became fascinated by the conductor’s waving baton. The dog enjoyed fetching sticks and couldn’t understand why the conductor wouldn’t throw the baton for him to retrieve. The dog began to bark and the barking became louder when the conductor used the baton to try to shoo the dog away. The curtain came down and the dog was removed.

Tools 4 life By DR. Jim coyle
Problem Solving
My 12 year old son brought me an anonymous quote: “Instead of telling God how big your problems are, try telling your problems how big your God is!” As I swam in that quote I questioned what motivates me in my problem solving. Am I motivated by need or faith? If I focus on the need I can easily sink into fear. If I focus on God I can easily soar into faith. Fear (False Expectations Appearing Real) is a silent anchor to death. Faith (Fear Ain’t in This House) is a catapult into life. Rather than having my problems speak to me and overpower me, I will speak to the problems and tell them they have no power over me. We can’t escape the internal conflict that problems bring. With the power of the Holy Spirit we can manage them in God’s way. So the choice is ours, is it the power of our problems or the power of God that will rule us?

A TOAST TO AN OPERA SINGER
• Helen Porter Mitchell was born in Melbourne, Australia, in 1861. She showed remarkable musical ability, with a voice spanning three octaves. As a young woman, she married and tried to settle down, but she knew she was not destined for the life of a housewife; she was destined for the stage. • After receiving instruction as an opera singer, she knew this was the life for her. However, Australia did not have many opportunities for opera singers in the 1800s, so she left her family and traveled to Europe and England, where she was received enthusiastically, becoming the first Australian to achieve international recognition as an opera singer. • She had always gone by the nickname of Nellie, and she was persuaded to adopt a new stage name as her last name. She chose a contraction of her hometown of Melbourne. • During a newspaper interview, a reporter asked her how she stayed so slim. She said she enjoyed eating toast that was sliced very thin and toasted very crispy, a habit she had picked up when she’d been ill and could digest little else. The hotel chef at the Ritz served it to her whenever she visited, and other customers enjoyed it as well. Her fans, striving to emulate her, also started eating thin crispy toast, which was generally served with soups and salads or topped with spreads.

Opera singer Ernestine Schumann-Heink loved a big meal. One day as she sat down to a huge steak dinner in a restaurant, Enrico Caruso walked in.

• Measha Gosman was born in New Brunswick in 1977. As a youngster, she sang in the choir of the Baptist church. She had an aptitude for music and began taking voice and piano lessons at the age of seven. As a teen, she spent summers on a scholarship at the Boston Conservatory, and she also studied with noted soprano Wendy Nielsen. She got a bachelor degree in music at the University of Toronto and then earned her Masters degree in Germany. • When she married a Swiss man named Markus Bruegger, they combined their last names, and she became Measha Brueggergosman. • Measha was only 20 years old when she played the lead role in the premiere of the opera Beatrice Chancy. The opera tells the story of a slave girl in 19th century rural Nova Scotia who murders her abusive father, who is also her master. The opera was well received, as was her performance. In 2000 it was filmed for the CBC. • Since then, she has appeared throughout Canada, performing with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Montreal Symphony Orchestra, the Thunder Bay Symphony Orchestra, the National Arts Centre Orchestra, and at Roy Thomson Hall. She’s also performed internationally, in the U.S., Germany, and elsewhere. She sang on William Bolcom’s album Songs of Innocence and Experience which won three Grammy awards, including Best Classical Album. • In 2012, Measha was a judge on the short-lived Canadian reality show Canada’s Got Talent. • In 2007, she appeared on the British show Who Do You Think You Are in which genealogy experts trace the family tree of famous celebrities. • On the show Who Do You Think You Are, Measha discovered that her great-greatgreat-great grandparents escaped from slavery during the Revolutionary War. The British granted freedom to all slaves who escaped from American rebels, which threw many plantations into chaos as slaves fled to freedom with the British. After the war, the British transported about 3,500 newly freed slaves to Nova Scotia where they were free to build new lives for themselves. Measha’s ancestors, John and Rose Gosman, and their baby daughter Fanny (who was born a free citizen because she was born behind British lines) traveled to Canada in 1783 on one of the last ships to leave New York for Nova Scotia. So Measha’s Canadian roots are deep and longstanding. • Measha nearly lost her life in 2009 when she suffered from a dissected aorta that was misdiagnosed. “Essentially, I had ignored my blood pressure,” she admits. She felt pressure at the base of her neck and started experiencing numbness in her shoulders and extremities. When her legs gave out, she went to the emergency room, but was sent home the following day with blood pressure medication. Her doctor sent her to a different hospital, where an MRI showed the rupture in her aorta. She was in surgery four hours later. “I think the reason most people die of a dissected aorta is because it’s hard to detect and even more difficult to catch before you die of internal bleeding,” she says. • After she recovered from surgery, she enjoyed one of the highlights of her career when she performed the Olympic Hymn at the Opening Ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Games. “I would have sang that from the coffin, are you kidding?” she quipped. When told that 2.5 billion people were watching, she admits, “I almost threw up!”

Richard Wagner's Ring cycle is a series of four operas based on Norse myths which have many similarities to the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The four operas are usually performed separately, but Wagner intended them to be performed as a whole. When done, the entire opera lasts 14 hours, or 18 hours including intermissions. It took him 30 years to write.

● On March 2, 1944, a train stops in a tunnel near Salerno, Italy, and more than 500 people on board suffocate and die. The train’s locomotives were burning low-grade coal substitutes that produced an excess of odorless and toxic carbon monoxide. Approximately 520 passengers were asphyxiated by accident. 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Is Your Computer Open to Thieves? If you’re a senior with a computer, do you know the answers to these questions? What is a keystroke logger? Why should your operating system be set for automatic updates? If you don’t know the answers, your computer could be at risk for a security breach. Here are the answers: A keystroke logger is a spy program that logs each keystroke you make and sends the information to someone else. Your operating system should be set up for automatic updates because those updates will contain security features you need. Your best bet: Take the computer to the store where you bought it (or a specialist in computers) and have them do a little work on it. Your list of requests: 1. Scan for viruses; 2. Turn on your firewall; 3. Get the latest operating system updates and set it to automatic; 4. Install a good virus protection; 5. Set your system to be very secure as you wander the Internet. Your next step is to find a teacher who can show you all the safety and security problems with the Internet. In general, here are some activities to avoid online: Quizzes (even if they offer prizes), giving your real name and any information about where you live, social networking sites, dating sites, clicking on links in email and agreeing to sign up on sites like LinkedIn. For more information, go online to aarp.org, click Home & Family, then Personal Technology.

• Following Fulton’s success, steamboats became a prime transporter of passengers and goods across the country. For example, in the steamboat port of New Orleans, 20 steamboat arrivals in 1814 increased to a whopping 1,200 arrivals by 1834. • The steamboat era in the United States continued until the 1870s, when railroads started supplanting the steamboat as the preferred transporter of passengers and goods.

Many referred to the boat as “Fulton’s Folly” due to its unusually long length and the smoke and fire associated with the vessel’s newfangled steam engine. Many thought it would blow up or sink on its first voyage; they were wrong! In fact, because Fulton wisely paid attention to passenger comfort, the Clermont became a very profitable vessel for transporting passengers to destinations on the Hudson River. Fulton subsequently formed and led a company offering services on six major rivers and the Chesapeake Bay.

STRANGE BUT TRUE by Samantha Weaver
● It was novelist, poet and playwright Gertrude Stein who made the following sage observation: “Everybody knows if you are too careful, you are so occupied in being careful that you are sure to stumble over something.” ● Some people enjoy novelty when dining out, but restaurateurs take a big risk when adding new items to a menu; it seems that less than a third of diners will actually try a new menu item. ● Two-thirds of all Tony award-winning composers and lyricists have been Jewish. ● The name of the state of Vermont comes from the French “mont vert,” which means “green mountain.” (If the explorers who named the state saw green mountains, they obviously were not there in the winter.)

Wintertime Roof Leaks
Q: This has been a winter of unusually stormy and snowy weather, and it looks like my house isn’t holding up too well. After noticing a water stain on an upstairs ceiling I went into the attic and found water stains on several boxes and a general damp smell. Trouble is, there is still ice and snow coating the rooftop, and I don’t feel safe going outside. How can I deal with this? -- George in Virginia A: Climbing onto the roof is definitely not safe in the midst of ice and snow, but you do need to stop water from entering, of course. You can set up a temporary patch from inside the attic, but keep in mind it is very temporary -- you’ll need to check it frequently until warmer weather comes and the roof can be properly repaired. In the attic, trace the water leak to its source. A leak can occur farther up a pitched roof and trickle down the rafters to drip elsewhere. If the water stains follow a path, trace that path upward to where the water marks end and check that area of the roof’s underlayment for damage, holes or apparent water entry points. Sometimes as the sun melts the ice and snow on the roof, you will be lucky (or unlucky) enough to see water actually dripping through. Now that you’ve located the leak (or leaks), you need to control the direction of the drip, so it no longer runs down the rafters but instead into a bucket to catch the water. Do this by placing a large nail in the center of the leak and tapping it through the roof’s sheathing until it reaches the shingle outside. “But Sam,” you say, “I’m trying to fix the leak, not create one!” True, but the damage is already done. For now you need to contain it until a better repair can be made. Underneath the nail you just punched through the underside of the roof, place a bucket to catch drips. Now the water isn’t running all over the attic. Next, put on a dust mask and cut away water-damaged insulation from around the hole. This clears the area you need to patch and helps prevent mold growth. Let the area dry for a day or two; hopefully much of the ice and snow will melt from the rooftop during this time. At any rate, you need the underside of the roof to be fairly dry so that a patch will hold. Once the area surrounding the hole is dry to the touch, you can patch it. Remove the nail from the hole. Make sure the area is very dry. You also might want to warm the area slightly with a hair dryer if it’s a cold day, so that the patch material adheres. Fill the hole with roofing cement or roof patch compound (available at home-improvement stores -- you’ll need just a small amount) and smooth out to the sides. In some cases, with spring coming, this small plug is all you need. But some DIYers add a little insurance by cutting a thin sheet of plywood into a square that extends a couple inches beyond the hole on each side, and tacking that tightly against the hole using roofing cement (not nails). Mark the patched area with brightly colored chalk or some other easy-to-see material. When the weather warms, you or a roofing professional must inspect the roof to locate and repair the damage. as the patch will give you only a few months’ reprieve. The roof may be damaged in other areas, or there could be undetected water problems as well. Send your questions or home tips to ask@thisisahammer.com.

HOME TIP: Proper attic ventilation is important at all times, but especially when the roof is leaking, as the airflow helps reduce mold growth. Make sure the attic vents aren’t blocked by boxes or deliberately closed off.

●“Jazz up your pancakes by adding pureed frozen blueberries or strawberries. It turns the mix either blue or red, and it’s fun for the kiddos.” -- V.R. in Florida ● “Purchase colorful laundry baskets for each child in your home. In the evening, you can have the child find all his or her stray items, put them in the basket and then put them away. In our house, the kids also use their basket to hold anything they need for school the next day -- backpack, coats and outerwear, even boots. We stack the baskets by the door, and nothing gets left behind.” -P.W. in Missouri ● Tissue boxes have so many uses after they are emptied of tissues. Try lining one with a plastic grocery bag and keeping it in your car for stray trash. Or you can use it to corral all of those plastic grocery bags until you need them -- just stuff them in one at a time. Lastly, and probably my favorite: Cut out doors and windows to use as houses for kids’ toys. Imagination makes the possibilities endless. -- JoAnn
