TIDBITS® DIRECTS YOU TO SOME

ODD DOTS ON THE MAP

by Patricia L. Cook When studying maps, whether with an atlas, a fold out map or internet mapping site like Google Maps, some names just kind of jump out at you. Many strange and funny names dot maps around the globe!

Tidbits will direct you to a few.

• Toponymy is “the study of place names.”

Many places were named for historical events, persons or naturally occurring landmarks. Some have strange names that seem to have come from joking comedians or drunken sailors!

• To start off with a laugh, a funny dot on maps of Quebec is Baie des Ha! Ha! This is a hamlet near the Ha! Ha! River, which has five dams, all named Ha! Ha! (numbered 1-5). There is also a Pointe des Ha! Ha!, Bridge Lake Ha! Ha!, Park Ha! Ha!, and more! The areas are all interesting and beautiful spots in Quebec.

Remember that Canada has both English and French as their national languages.

The French meaning of “haha” is “an unexpected obstacle on the path.” Sort of explains where the names must come from.

• Another interesting place in eastern Canada is Blow Me Down Provincial Park near Deer Lake, Newfoundland.

The wind does blow across and over the Blow Me Down Mountains but the park actually has lots of trees to shield visitors from the wind. turn the page for more!

Q: What is “Baked Alaska” called in Alaska?

A: Baked Here!

• Heading way south, actually to the southern hemisphere, there is a lone rock hill in Queensland, Australia that is named Bang Bang Jump Up! This may make you wonder if a hunter found a large kangaroo years ago!

• Hat Head National Park in New South Wales Australia boasts sand dunes, wetlands, the clear waters of the Tasman Sea and beautiful beaches. As opposed to “bed head,” which means bad hair, this is a place where a hat is needed for protection from the sunshine. It is about seven hours south of the Sunshine Coast of Queensland, Australia.

• There are many odd place names in all countries, including the United States.

The state claiming New York City, one of the most fashion forward, sophisticated cities in the world, is also where Hoosick and Owl’s Head are located. However, there is also an Owl’s Head, Maine.

Additionally, Maine has Bald Head and Suckerville on the map.

Two states—Arizona and Hawaii—and four U.S. territories—American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands— do not observe daylight saving time.

• When the town of Deer Lake was named in the late 1800s, it was named for the many “deer” who often crossed the local lake. Those deer were actually caribou.

• A whistle on the roof of the Deer Lake Power Plant was placed there during construction in the early 1920s. An air raid siren that was brought to Newfoundland from England, it is still used today. Local residents listen for the whistle to know whether they are on time for work, ready for lunch, or ready to end their work day. It is sounded Monday to Saturday but silent on Sunday. The whistle also is blown in honor of several Canadian holidays.

• If you do happen to visit Blow Me Down Park and Deer Lake in Newfoundland you should also head southwest and see Jerry’s Nose. Why? Because a place with a name like that should be interesting!

ODD DOTS ON THE MAP (continued):

• Speaking of suckers, if you’ve driven across the U.S. on Interstate 40 you’ve probably noticed signs for Toad Suck Park, near Conway, Arkansas. Years ago, Toad Suck was a steamboat stop on the Arkansas River. The legend is that riverboat crews would visit a local tavern and “suck whiskey until they swelled up like toads!” The name is still used today for a U.S. Corps of Engineers Lock and Dam, a bridge, and the popular “Toad Suck Daze” festival held in Conway each May. • By the way, most Americans say the name of the Arkansas River using the same pronunciation used for the state: Ar-can-saw. People in the state of Kansas call it the Ar-Kansas, with emphasis on their state name!

• Kansas has a small unincorporated town named Canada. David Christie, Speaker of the Canadian Senate from 1874-1878, sent his sons to purchase land in Kansas and other Canadians followed.

• Some places have names that have no known reason for their origin. Maybe the answer to those origin questions should be submitted to Why, Arizona! Why is a community about thirty miles north of the Mexican border near Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. The town name originated from the Y intersection of State Routes 85 and 86. Arizona law required all city names to have at least three letters – or it would have simply been “Y.” By the way, the intersection has since been changed to a T intersection.

• If you are looking for Grit, Noodle or Cut and Shoot, you need to go to the state of Texas. Grit was so-named after the texture of the soil. Noodle was named after Noodle Creek, which according to old folk tradition meant “nothing,” meaning the creek bed was dry.

TOOLS 4 LIFE

BY DR. JIM COYLE

HHH to DDD

Your Head Heart Hands are being Designed and Developed to Deliver a purposeful life. Paul’s heart was always to disciple, train, and release believers into a making a difference for God and others. He lived and breathed the “HHH”. He helped develop leaders through his works (Hands), his words (Head), and his passion (Heart). As a student, husband, parent, teacher, pastor, and counselor, it has and always will be my desire to do the same with every saint I am allowed to be with in “Loving God and People More Today than Yesterday.” Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is being unwrapped as a present for each of us to walk in, “DDD”. You are uniquely Designed to be part of a much greater plan orchestrated by the hand of God. Our everyday journey is Developing and completing us through every circumstance and event so we can Deliver a message of hope and faith in our Lord. Let’s use our HHH to DDD every day to its fullest.

•Cut and Shoot was named when a religious dispute concerning a visiting preacher arose in the Texas town. Some wanted to hear him and some didn’t! An eight-year-old said, “I’m scared! I’m going to cut around the corner and shoot through the bushes in a minute!” He did cut but didn’t shoot and his words lived on in the town name!

• While all places have histories, the small towns of Remote and Boring in Oregon must not have been as lively as Cut and Shoot. No Name, Colorado also missed out on a lively name.

• Two Egg, Florida was originally named Allison after a family-owned sawmill.

During the Great Depression locals began trading eggs for other needs at the general store. The practice saved the town, and the name Two Egg was adopted. Tiny little Two Egg is still on the map!

• Many strange names dot the map of Kentucky. Monkey’s Eyebrow, Rabbit Hash, Big Bone Lick, and Possom Trot are some of the peculiar ones. However, you have to go to Missouri to get to Peculiar and if you are interested in bigger critters like moose, maybe a visit to Eek, Alaska would be fun!

PIERRE TRUDEAU

March 4th 2014

December 22– January 19 Privacy is at a premium this week. Savor any moments you have to yourself, Capricorn. The race to finish a home improvement project begins.

January 20– February 18

Whoa, Aquarius.

Enthusiasm can be contagious, but it can also be overwhelming. Temper yours until you learn more about the people involved.

February 19– March 20

Watch it, Pisces. Play your cards right, and you will have nothing to worry about. Make a misstep, and there will be consequences. A pal returns a favor.

March 21– April 19

You’re simply amazing, Aries. There is no other way to describe you this week. You know just what to say and do to make everything right.

April 20– May 20

Old newspaper clippings remind you of simpler times and inspire you to pare down. Start with that room that everyone has forgotten, Taurus.

May 21– June 21 Networking has never been your forte, but if you want to succeed, you are going to have to expand your contact list. Look to a mentor to help, Gemini.

June 22– July 22

Shop ’til you drop. That’s your motto this week, Cancer. You have many purchases to make for an upcoming event. Look to a savvy senior for help.

July 23– August 22 You’re in top form this week, Leo. Everything you touch is golden. A clash in opinions at work kicks the rumor mill into high gear.

Keep your nose to the grindstone.

August 23– September 22 Game on, Virgo. The competition is heating up, and all eyes are on you to take the lead. A blast from the past drops by with an uncanny request.

September 23– October 22

Some risks are worth taking, Libra. Cast aside your fears and go for it. A cooking mishap leads to a new tradition. The debate at work continues.

October 23– November 21

Watch it, Scorpio. You’re skating on thin ice with a loved one. Give them some space to sort things out. A windfall makes a trip possible.

November 22– December 21

Uh-uh-uh, Sagittarius.

Sometimes it is best to wing it. Stop thinking about what you should do and just do it.

A deadline creeps ever so close.

Pierre Trudeau was one of the most widely known prime ministers in Canada’s history.

He served as his country’s top leader for sixteen years, from 1968 until 1984.

• Trudeau was born October 18, 1919 in Montreal and grew up in the wealthy suburb of Outremont. His full name was Joseph Philippe Pierre Yves Elliott Trudeau. He and his two siblings grew up speaking French and English; their mother was of French and Scottish heritage, their father was French Canadian.

• After graduating from Collège Jeande-Brébeuf, an elite Jesuit preparatory school, Trudeau received a law degree from the University of Montreal. He also studied at Harvard, the Institut d’Études Politiques de Paris, and the London School of Economics. He had a reputation as a flamboyant and charismatic intellectual. He was clever, witty and quite controversial at times.

• The press and many Canadians loved having Trudeau as their leader but, as with any politician, he also had many who did not agree with his liberal ways.

Trudeau wore sandals in Canada’s House of Commons, used obscenities occasionally when referring to his opponents and actually did a pirouette behind Queen Elizabeth II! • He was married from 1971 to 1984 to Margaret with whom he had three sons.

He also had a daughter later with Deborah Coyne in 1991. Trudeau dated several celebrities, such as Barbra Streisand, Kim Cantrell and Margot Kidder, adding to his own high profile celebrity status.

He had an eight-year relationship with British actress and musician, Liona Boyd. Trudeau’s love life both thrilled and embarrassed Canadians.

• Trudeau’s influence and policies established him as a political giant in Canadian history. He was prime minister when Canada adopted the Official Languages Act, establishing English and French as the national languages, in 1969.

• He also lead the country through the most serious terrorist acts ever on Canadian soil, the October Crisis in 1970. The quick and strong response to stop the Front De Libération Du Québec (FLQ) involving in two kidnappings and the murder of Québec Labour Minister Pierre Laporte, lead to the invocation of the War Measures Act. This controversial act gave the government broad powers, including stationing armed soldiers on Parliament Hill to maintain security and order. The act was only used during the two world wars and the October Crisis. A famous line from Trudeau used in a news conference concerning how far he would go to maintain order, was: “Well, just watch me!

• Probably the most memorable action with the most significant change for the country of Canada was when Trudeau lead the government leadership in total separation from the United Kingdom (UK). Patriation occurred in 1982, transferring legal powers from the UK to Canada. Canada became an autonomous country, adopting its own constitution, including a charter of rights.

• The popular Trudeau left many memories, political and otherwise, for Canadians and people all over the world. During his years in office, the term “Trudeaumania” was widely used referring to his style and influence. The sports cars he drove along with the trademark rose in his lapel will remain a part of history. He died on September 28, 2000, in Montreal, a few weeks before his 81st birthday.

A-1 Home Healthcare Proudly Presents

Senior News Line Overcoming the Dreaded Staircase Going upstairs can be a real problem for the elderly, the handicapped, or anyone who is temporarily disabled. Many times, when it becomes difficult to use the stairs, the easiest solution appears to be avoiding those areas of your home that require stair access. While this may be the simplest conclusion, it is not very practical. Installing a stairway chair lift in your home may be the perfect solution and a sound investment in your health and mobility.

Stair lifts are a special type of home mobility motorized equipment that will be used to carry an individual up and down the stairs. In recent years, stairway chair lifts designed for the home (also called stair chair, chair lift, stair glide and stairway lift) have become very popular. Even though installing a stair lift is an expensive proposition, when you compare it to the cost of moving to a single story house or to a skilled nursing facility, it can turn out to be considerably cheaper.

Stair lifts are very important devices that can allow people to retain their mobility and independence, while utilizing all areas of their home. Since the stair lift will be used for several years, it has to be designed in such a way as to last a long time.

With the wide variety of stair lift devices available these days, choosing one can often be confusing.

Purchasing a stair lift involves a fair amount of expense, so this will be an important decision to make. Before investing in a stair lift, it is a good idea to find out what types of stair lifts are available.

Most modern stair lifts can be easily and quickly installed to a straight staircase. A straight stair lift will generally be installed directly to the stairs, but in some instances where space is at a premium, they can be attached to the wall. It is far more common for the rail system to be attached to the stairs, and the installation can usually be done in an afternoon.

Stair lifts can also be installed on curved staircases, but installation time and expenses increase as this quite often involves custom-made tracks.

The speed of the stair lift will be slow and steady, and most ensure a smooth ride. Stair lifts are fitted with a soft start and stop so you won't come to a sudden jolt when you arrive at the top or bottom of the stairs which could cause you pain.

Most stair lifts will have safety sensors which are placed on the footrest and seat. They are there to detect any obstructions on the stairs, landing and at the bottom which will stop the chair immediately and not continue until it has been cleared. This is ideal if you have small pets who like to follow you or may have a favorite place to sleep at the bottom of the stairs and sometimes not always easy to see.

There is no longer a need to dread those staircases, find a way to tame them and remain independent at home.

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

THIS IS A HAMMER

By Samantha Mazzotta

Flushing Out Rodents Q: My mother-in-law was visiting over the holidays and kept saying she could smell a mouse. I looked all over but couldn’t see or smell anything. Was she just being paranoid? -- Jim in Worcester, Mass.

STRANGE BUT TRUE

by Samantha Weaver

●It was Democratic governor and presidential hopeful Adlai Stevenson who made the following sage observation: “A free society is a place where it’s safe to be unpopular.” ● Those who study such things claim that 75 percent of people who deliberately choose to buy a kosher product are not, in fact, Jewish. ● Smart idea: Some fitness centers are now using the energy that clients expend on its exercise bikes to power the building’s lighting. ● Are you afraid of rattlesnakes? Keep in mind that the venom of a black widow spider is 15 times more deadly than that of the rattler. ●Domestic diva Martha Stewart has been struck by lightning three times.

D A

A: Believe it or not, it is possible to smell that a mouse is present in your home.

Field mice, for example, build nests in the walls near an entry point. The nests give off a unique musty smell, caused in part by bits of fur padding the nest and urine (mice dribble urine constantly).

Mice also are small and sneaky, usually coming out only at night when the family is asleep and the sound level in the house is low. They travel under cover as much as possible, either along the inside of the walls or the back of cabinets and behind countertop items.

How do they get into the house in the first place? According to Terminix, mice can squeeze through a crack that a pencil will fit through (sightly larger than 1/4 inch in diameter). Rats can get through a quarter-sized opening. So small openings in the foundation of a house are common entry points. Openings around pipes or cables are prime spots as well. Mice also might climb in through the attic, exploiting openings around soffit vents or damaged sections of the roof or eaves.

To find out if you have a rodent infestation, head for the kitchen and food-storage areas (like the basement and pantry).

Pick a lower-level shelf and remove all the items, then inspect the back of the shelf, with a flashlight if need be. Look for telltale mouse droppings (they look like black rice grains). You also might see an unusual amount of spilled grains (rice, oatmeal, etc.) or crumbs, and you might detect a faint musty odor.

Inspect the food containers you just took out. Cardboard boxes with gnawed corners indicate mice have attempted to get into them (they often will be chewed through, with their contents spilling out).

Plastic bags also will be compromised, and mice can even gnaw through the plastic tops of metal coffee cans.

Next, check the attic and crawlspace areas. Use a flashlight to look for droppings along the support beams, and inspect insulation for damage caused by burrowing rodents.

If you don’t find evidence of mice or other rodents in the house, don’t assume there is no infestation, particularly if you notice a musty smell. Schedule an inspection by a pest-control service to confirm whether or not you have an infestation.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

● Smartphones and computers are notorious for viruses -- but I’m thinking of the kind that can make YOU sick. These devices are touched by us constantly. And then we stick them right up to our faces!

Take the time daily to clean your device with an alcohol wipe to decontaminate it.

Your respiratory and digestive systems will thank you. -- JoAnn ● “We are always prompted to choose strong passwords, but a random collection of letters, numbers and special symbols can be hard to remember. I make a strong password by using a coded phrase, like “My three boys are No. 1,” which might be “MY3boysR#1.” Just thought I’d share my trick, but not my password!” -- R.W. in Iowa ● Use secure networks to transfer data.

When out and about, if you are using free Wi-Fi hotspots, choose ones that encrypt data. You can check the Web address and look for a padlock icon, or addresses that begin with https://. The “S” means “secure.” ● “Sign out of all accounts when you are using someone else’s computer. I can’t tell you how often I have used the computers at the library and went to sign into my webmail only to find that the previous user’s email comes up. Navigating away from a page usually doesn’t work, closing the browser sometimes doesn’t work, but logging off ALWAYS works. The same for shopping sites, like Amazon. If you don’t log off -- because these sites use “cookies” to remember you -- someone could potentially use your account.” -- M.L. in Florida ● Lock your device! Just as you wouldn’t leave your door unlocked, so too should you not leave your phone unlocked, particularly if you have applications on your smartphone that can be easily accessed. Lock it up, and be smart.
