Q: Did you hear about the pilot who always had work? A: He was great at landing a job TIDBITS®
www.SteveEmig.com
by Janet Spencer On May 15, 1930 Ellen Church became the first female flight attendant. Previously, the co-pilot or ‘cabin boys’ were responsible for serving passengers. Come along with Tidbits as we take to the skies! Ellen Church was a trained pilot, and in 1930 she applied for a job as a pilot. She was turned down, but when they found out she was also a nurse, she was hired to serve as a stewardess because it was thought that having a nurse aboard would reassure passengers. At first, all stewardesses were nurses. Ellen’s career as a stewardess was cut short when she was injured in a car accident after just 18 months. She was a nurse for the rest of her life. • Female flight attendants still outnumber male flight attendants by a margin of 6 to 1. • About 10% of commercial pilots are female. • In 1970, 1% of business travelers were female. By 2000, 51% were female. • About 650 million passengers travel on U.S. airlines annually and there are over 100,000 flight attendants to serve them. • A typical flight attendant will serve on three flights in a single work day. Each craft holds about 270 people. That’s over 800 passengers to deal with every single day. cont'd next page!

• If your flight is delayed, be aware that flight attendants are paid only from the time a plane pushes back from the gate until it opens its doors at the next city. The most stressful part of every work day– the boarding and the deplaning– is not on the clock for most flight attendants. They don’t get paid anything at all if a plane is delayed while the passengers are still in the terminal, and they’re paid a fraction of their regular salary if the loaded plane sits on the tarmac for more than an hour. Therefore, flight attendants are just as frustrated by delays as you are. • The reason you have to return your tray table to its upright and locked position is so you won’t impale yourself on it if the plane crashes. The reason you have to return your seat to its upright position is to make evacuation easier in event of a disaster, to minimize whiplash, and to prevent you from slipping under your seat belt in the event of a sudden stop. The reason you have to turn off headphones is so you can hear emergency announcements. The reason you have to raise your window shade is so you’ll have a better feel for which way is up and give you better orientation if there’s an accident, as well as making it easier for rescuers to see inside. The reason you have to stow your carry-on items and put away your computers is to avoid having them act like airborne missiles. Lights are dimmed so you’re not blinded by light while dashing through smoke. • Because people seated in the exit row might be called upon to open the emergency exit, there are 3 rules governing who gets to sit there. First, you have to be over 15 years old. Second, you must speak English. Third, you cannot require a seat belt extension. This is because you have to be able to see the exit; you have to be able to verbally direct people to the exit; and you have to be physically capable of opening the exit.

Do they need keys to start the plane? Maybe that's what those delays on the ground are sometimes, when you're just sitting there at the gate. Maybe the pilot sits up there in the cockpit saying, 'I don't believe this...Darn it... I did it again.' They tell you its something mechanical because they don't want to come on the P.A. systems: 'Ladies and Gentlemen, we're going to be delayed here on the ground for a while. I uh...oh man , this is so embarrassing... I ... I left the keys to the plane in my apartment. They're in the big blue dish by the front door. I'm really sorry. I'll run back home and get them.' -Jerry Seinfeld
Tools 4 life By DR. Jim coyle Stepping into a New Season Life is full of change, just as the four seasons that are based on the rotation of the earth as it orbits the sun. The temperature of our personal seasons can be as cold as the winter while we experience the separation of warmth from family and friends. This could be a time when the night time seems as if it will never end; the long nights when the tears seem like they will never stop flowing. The morning comes, the tears cease, and the joy returns to your spirit as a new season brings springtime weather and the budding of new life, hope, and purpose. Summer season comes with the heat that helps circulate our being and we see the fruit of our labor and love. Then comes the fall season where everything becomes dormant and either dies or goes into seclusion and hibernation for the winter. Our lives will change, and we will enter and exit many seasons. God doesn’t measure seasons with clocks and calendars, but through truth and revelation. Every season we go through has purpose in maturing and completing us. There are some things to know and learn about seasons as we step in and out of them. They bring new changes, new challenges, and new champions. We are all either entering a season, in the middle of a season, or coming out of a season. Keep stepping and you will become a weathered champion.

Kennedy signed a proclamation which designated May 15th as Peace Officers Memorial Day and the week in which that date falls as Police Week. Currently, tens of thousands of law enforcement officers from around the world converge on Washington, DC to participate in a number of planned events which honor those that have paid the ultimate sacrifice. The Memorial Service began in 1982 as a gathering in Senate Park of approximately 120 survivors and supporters of law enforcement. Decades later, the event, more commonly known as National Police Week, has grown to a series of events which attracts thousands of survivors and law enforcement officers to our Nation's Capital each year.

2015 Racing schedule * On May 21, 1932, aviator Amelia Earhart becomes the first pilot to repeat Charles Lindbergh’s feat, landing her plane in Ireland after a 2,000-mile solo flight across the North Atlantic. * On May 23, 1941, Joe “The Brown Bomber” Louis beats Buddy Baer to retain his heavyweight title at Griffith Stadium in Washington, D.C. Baer knocked Louis through the ropes in the first round, but Louis clawed his way back and eventually gutted out a victory. * On May 22, 1969, the legendary actor, philanthropist and automobile enthusiast Paul Newman makes his onscreen racing debut in the film “Winning.” Three years later, Newman launched a racing career of his own, driving a Lotus Elan in his first Sports Car Club of America race. * On May 24, 1971, at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, an antiwar newspaper advertisement signed by 29 U.S. soldiers supporting the Concerned Officers Movement appears. The ad was in support of the group’s members who opposed the departure of the carrier USS Constellation for Vietnam. * On May 20, 1995, President Bill Clinton permanently closes the two-block stretch of Pennsylvania Avenue in front of the White House to all vehicular traffic, citing the need for security. The road had been opened to traffic for nearly 200 years. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

About 5 billion glass bottles and jars of all kinds are recycled each year in the United States; a nearly 500% increase in the last ten years. That represents about 2.5 billion pounds of glass that won’t end up in a landfill. Thought for the Day: “The greatest analgesic, soporific, stimulant, tranquilizer, narcotic, and to some extent even antibiotic -- in short, the closest thing to a genuine panacea -- known to medical science is work.” --Thomas Szasz

* You may be forgiven if you’ve never heard of Violet Jessup, who lived a remarkably fortunate (or unfortunate, depending on your point of view) life. At the age of 23, Jessup was serving as a steward on the RMS Olympic when the luxury liner collided with a British warship and sank. She survived to continue her profession, taking a position on the RMS Titanic less than two years later, in 1912. That didn’t end well, as we all know, but once again, Jessup survived. Amazingly, she continued her oceangoing career, and during World War I she served as a nurse aboard the Hospital Ship Britannic. When the Britannic struck a mine and sank, Jessup was pulled underwater and hit her head on the keel of the ship. Despite her injuries, she was rescued once again. Three maritime disasters didn’t seem to faze her, though; she remained a stewardess for the rest of her career.

Home Instead Senior Care Proudly Presents
Senior News Line By Matilda Charles
Picking a Hospital
--Medicare’s online site Hospital Compare now uses stars to rate hospitals. This is good -- and bad -- when it comes to judging a hospital. The Good: At least there is another tool to help guide you toward selecting the right hospital. The star ratings look at things like pain control and communication with the patient. The Bad: The star method is based on the appraisals of patients who’ve been in hospitals. If a patient has had a bad experience, it might have nothing to do with the care he or she received. Patients who are surveyed are chosen randomly, and they’re not all Medicare recipients. (What would be interesting is seeing a comparison of the results of patients on Medicare versus those who have private insurance. Is our care different from those with another insurance plan?) Hospitals, of course, aren’t thrilled about these star surveys, saying that a difference of only a point can move a hospital down from three stars to two ... or down to one. They also point to the fact that it’s just patient opinion that makes up the rating, and that there’s much more to a hospital than a patient’s experience. The American Hospital Association even says, “There’s a risk of oversimplifying the complexity of quality care.” Medicare does its own reports, but those are based on dry statistics, such as how many people got infections while there. In time, the site also will rate hospitals based on outcomes and safety, but for now, the patient appraisals and the Medicare reports are what’s available. To see how your hospital compares, go online to www.medicare.gov/ hospitalcompare. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.

“Airplane travel is nature’s way of making you look like your passport photo.” -Al Gore
Oops, we missed this spot with something funny. So just think of a great joke and start laughing. Then tell people around you that this Tidbits paper is just the Neatest Little Paper you ever read!
Early pilots often made emergency landings on farms and often had to pay for damaged crops. Such a pilot was said to have “bought” part of the farm. From this, pilots who fail to survive a crash, or anyone else who meets an untimely death, is said to have “bought the farm.”

Noteworthy Inventions
QUIZ: OPTICS & LENSES
• John was 18 in 1848 when he got a job in an optical shop in Switzerland. The following year he moved to Rochester, New York, and opened his own optical shop, manufacturing monocles, spectacles, and field glasses. His friend Henry made a financial investment in the business and they became partners. • One day John found a discarded piece of Vulcanite rubber. Experimenting, he discovered he could make eyeglass frames from the material. At that time, eyeglasses were made from either gold or horn. When the Civil War started, the price of gold and horn rose, and the demand for John’s Vulcanite glasses skyrocketed. • In 1860 he invented the first machine to produce glass lenses. As scientific research gained momentum, his machines also produced lenses for microscopes, telescopes, and cameras. • John’s son William revolutionized the industry by inventing a new process of making lenses by casting them out of molten glass. During the two World Wars, the company was asked to provide troops with gun sights, periscopes, target finders, and searchlight mirrors. • Because pilots suffered from high-altitude glare, the company produced sunglasses that used a polarized filter to absorb light. They had a large oval frame to shield an aviator’s eyes which needed to repeatedly glance down toward the instrument panel. These glasses became enormously popular and are still sold today. The company also expanded into contact lenses. • The company is named after the last names of John and his financial backer, Henry. What is the name of the company? Bonus points for naming the sunglasses. Answer: The company is named Bausch & Lomb; the sunglasses they created for pilots are called Ray-Bans (because they ban rays).
BAUSCH & LOMB
• By the time John Bausch died in 1926, his company was making 17,000 products and creating 28% of U.S. eyeglass lenses. • During the Great Depression, military products represented 70% of total production of the Bausch & Lomb line. • Just when televisions became popular in the American home and cinemas were beginning to decline, Bausch & Lomb invented the CinemaScope lens. The new lens made the “wide screen” effect possible, enabling cinemas to double screen width. The company was awarded an honorary Oscar for this. • The company sold 16,000 pairs of Ray-Bans in 1982, but after Tom Cruise wore them in the 1983 film Risky Business, sales jumped to 360,000. • Bausch & Lomb worked for three years to develop soft contact lenses, which came on the market in 1971. Previously all contact lenses had been made of glass or acrylic, which were hard and often painful. The new lenses were softer, and were marketed with the brand name “Soflens.” The value of company stock tripled. • The company’s most advanced contact lens called “PureVision” are so oxygen-permeable that they can remain in the eye up to 30 days without being taken out at night. • About 25% of their business revolves around the manufacture of lens-care products, including cleaning and disinfectant solutions. • Globally, Bausch & Lomb is one of the largest producers of contact lenses. The company headquarters is still in Rochester, New York, although there are production plants all over the planet. Today, about 13,000 employees in 36 countries work for the Bausch & Lomb.

QUIZ: A DELIVERY COMPANY
www.ced-rel.com
• Frederick Smith’s grandfather was a steamboat captain. His father built a bus line. Fred was more interested in flying, and he earned money weekends as a charter pilot while he worked his way through Yale in the 1960s. • He often flew spare parts for computer companies who were unwilling to wait for ground delivery to get critical components to customers. • He joined the Marine Corps, and while serving in Vietnam as a ground officer, he accompanied pilots on more than 200 combat missions, all while noticing how efficient the military’s delivery system is. • After leaving the military, he inherited $4 million from his father. He raised an additional $80 million from investors and decided to go into the business of providing business owners with the fastest delivery service on earth.

Q: What do you call when you're sick of being in the airport?
A: Terminal illness.
• He started by purchasing a controlling interest in an airline maintenance company, then turned to buying used jets. He opened his doors for business in 1973, guaranteeing overnight delivery between any two points in the 11city network he set up. He carried just seven packages on his first run, and soon closed down in order to reorganize. • He more than doubled his network to 25 cities and re-launched the business a month later, this time carrying a total of 186 packages.

• The U.S. Post Office sued him to try to maintain their monopoly. He lost $27 million in his first two years and resorted to playing the blackjack tables in Vegas to keep afloat. But by the late 1970s Americans nationwide were relying on his company’s ability to deliver critical goods overnight. Today the company has 645 aircraft and 71,000 trucks carrying upwards of 5.5 million items daily. Name it.
QUIZ: A FAMOUS PHRASE
• When Edward went to gather the data collected by the sensors, he discovered to his dismay that not a single bit of information had been collected, because the technician wired the sensors backwards and not one of them functioned. Stapp had risked his life for nothing.

• The U.S. Air Force wanted to know how sudden deceleration would affect pilots. They designed a series of experiments that consisted of volunteers being strapped into rocket-propelled sleds which were quickly accelerated before the brakes were abruptly applied. The volunteers wore a vest wired with sensors that measured the force. • According to the legend, an engineer named Edward designed this harness, but Edward did not install the sixteen individual sensors. A technician did that. • On the day of the first test, volunteer John Paul Stapp was strapped into his harness, belted into the seat, and sent for the ride of his life. The deceleration was so forceful that when Stapp staggered out of the seat, his nose was bleeding and his eyes were bloodshot.

• Edward muttered something about, “if there’s a way to do something wrong, he’ll find it.” • At a press conference a few days later, Stapp paraphrased Edward’s comment, saying words to the effect that, “if there are two or more ways to do something, and if one of those results in catastrophe, then someone will do it that way.” • Eventually this pessimistic saying was distilled, becoming a well-known expression that was named after Edward’s last name. What was Ed’s last name, and what is this pithy pessimistic platitude? Answer: Murphy, as in Murphy’s Law: “If anything can go wrong, it will.”
