by Kathy Wolfe In honor of the 73rd annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally being held August 5 through 11, Tidbits checks out the facts on Harley-Davidson, founded in 1903 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. • In 1901, 21-year-old William Harley wrapped up a blueprint drawing of a single-cylinder engine designed to be attached to a regular bicycle frame. Two years later, with the help of his childhood friend Arthur Davidson, their first motorcycle rolled out of their first “factory,” a 10’ x 15’ wooden shed. Arthur’s brothers joined the company shortly afterward, boosting 1903’s production to three motorcycles. Eight cycles were sold in 1905, and 50 the following year. While the first Harley was black, customers in 1905 could choose black or the “Silent Grey Fellow,” Each had hand-painted stripes and a handlettered “Harley-Davidson Motor Company” on the fuel tank. • Harley-Davidson expanded to a new factory measuring 28’ x 80’ in 1906, and six fulltime employees were on staff. The next year, production increased to 150. Another new factory came along in 1913, boasting 297,110 sq. ft, compared to the 2,240 sq. ft. of the 1906 facility. The larger area enabled the company to produce 12,904 cycles that year.

Tools 4 life By DR. Jim coyle Encourage Someone Today Have you ever had a smile, a kind word, or a kind act make your day? The comfort and support of someone can lift us out of the deepest pothole and get us back on the road. I am a recipient of recent medical research. There is a bone-bonding compound that looks like tooth paste. Once it is injected into the body it hardens and reaches the compression strength of natural bone. It is so close to the real bone that the body doesn’t reject it. The compound has proved to allow patients to resume normal activities more quickly and with less pain. As a result, my back is stronger. An encouraging word or action has the ability to strengthen broken hearts and spirits with a compound that will help the recipient walk and move forward more quickly with less pain. Encourage someone today. Our kind word or act today may help someone, without us needing to see the result. Thank you for being a gift for someone.

• Seventeen years after the first cycle rolled out of that wooden shed, Harley-Davidson was the largest motorcycle company in the world, with dealerships in 67 countries. Over 28,000 motorcycles were produced in 1920. • Of all the country’s motorcycle manufacturers in business in 1929, only Indian and HarleyDavidson were able to weather the stock market crash. Production at H-D dropped from 22,350 bikes to 3,703. Sales to police forces helped them survive the economy’s collapse. • H-D profited greatly from the use of their motorcycles during war time. Over 20,000 Harleys were used during World War I, and nearly 90,000 were put into service during World War II. • In 1946, foreign motorcycles hit the American market and the competition with British and Japanese bikes was fierce. British imports had a sportier appearance and were cheaper and more reliable. Favorable tax laws governing imports made these bikes even more attractive. Although Harley-Davidson introduced the Hydra-Glide with the Panhead engine in an attempt to compete, it was heavy and not as sporty. It didn’t take long for H-D’s market share to shrink to a mere 6% of the market. By 1950, 40% of the motorcycles in the U.S. were foreign-made. • Marlon Brando was 30 years old when he rode a British Triumph in the 1954 movie The Wild One, the story of a motorcycle gang terrorizing a small town. The film’s popularity did nothing to help the sales of Harleys. In an effort to combat the appeal of British bikes, in 1957, H-D introduced the Sportster, considered “father of the superbikes.” • The 1969 cult film Easy Rider featured Peter Fonda as Captain America riding a completely transformed H-D Electra-Glide with a Panhead engine. Four bikes were customized for the making of the film. Three were stolen before the movie was completed, and one burned. Fonda later restored the burned bike and today that chopper can be seen at the National Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa, Iowa. The Harleys ridden by the main characters in the film were purchased from the Los Angeles Police Department, as Harley-Davidson refused to provide free bikes for the movie.

STRANGE BUT TRUE by Samantha Weaver ● Ever wonder where we get the term “blurb” to indicate a short summary or promotional piece accompanying a creative work? At a trade association dinner in 1907, author Gelett Burgess presented attendees with a limited edition of one of his books. It was customary to have a brief summary included on the dust jacket of such books, along with a picture of an attractive woman. Burgess followed this custom Ð with a twist. On the cover of his piece was an image of a woman with her hand held to her mouth, as if shouting. The caption for this image was “Belinda Blurb, in the act of blurbing,” and bold letters at the top of the dust jacket declared, “Yes, this is a Blurb!” The name stuck.

• The 1960s ushered in the customizing trend, but H-D failed to jump on the bandwagon in time. Their earnings faded, and the company was forced to go public, selling shares for the first time in 1965. In 1969, the family relinquished control of the business they had owned for 66 years, selling out to the American Machine and Foundry Company for $21 million. AMF, famous in the bowling industry, allowed the quality to slip considerably. Sales plummeted and by 1980, there seemed little chance of recovery for the company. In 1981, 13 senior H-D executives banded together and purchased the company from AMF for $80 million and the recovery began. In 1986, two million shares of common stock were offered, returning the company to public ownership. • There have been a number of “glides” throughout Harley history. The HydraGlide was introduced in 1949, with the first hydraulic front forks. This evolved into the Duo-Glide in 1958 with the addition of rear brakes and hydraulic rear suspension. The Electra-Glide came along with its electric starter motor in 1965, and on to the SuperGlide in 1971 and the Wide-Glide in 1980. • Harley has also had a variety of “heads” over the years. First there was the Flathead, dubbed as such because of the shape of the cylinder head cover. Introduced in 1929, it was a 45-cubic-inch side-valve engine. The Knucklehead, the first V-Twin model, debuted in 1936 with its cylinder covers shaped like clenched fists. It featured two fuel tanks with the instrument panel positioned between them. It was produced until 1947. Along came the Panhead in 1948 with aluminum cylinder covers resembling upside-down saucepans. Panheads were around until 1965. The next year brought the Shovelhead, whose cylinder covers looked like the back of a shovel. Compare the Shovelhead’s engine size of 74 cubic inches with that 1903 model’s 25 cubic

The 1991 film Harley Davidson and theMarlboro Man starred Mickey Rourke as tough biker Harley Davidson and Don Johnson as Marlboro. Harley’s quotable quote from this low-budget movie was, “It’s better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool.”
• The 1932 Harley-Davidson could be purchased for around $300. If you’re looking to buy a 2013 Electra-Glide CVO Ultra-Classic 100th Anniversary Edition, better set aside about $38,000. A new Sportster will set you back around $11,000. • For seven days every August, Main Street in Sturgis, South Dakota, population 6,700, is packed with thousands of motorcycle enthusiasts who gather to race and tour. The first rally was held in 1938, drawing nine racers and 200 spectators. The two-day rally offered $500 in prize money. Two years later, 150 racers participated in front of 5,000 onlookers. Close to 450,000 are expected for this year’s rally. • Harley-Davidson expects to ship about 260,000 motorcycles to dealerships during 2013.

FAMOUS WOMEN OF THE WORLD:
FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE
The field of nursing wouldn’t be the same without the contributions of Florence Nightingale. This selfless woman gave up a life of privilege to minister to others and is considered the founder of modern nursing. • Born in 1820, Florence was named after the city of her birth, Florence, Italy. She was raised on a Derbyshire, England estate in a well-to-do family, and tutored by her father in mathematics, history, and philosophy. Her home education included Greek, French, Italian, Latin, and German, all languages she could speak. • At age 17, Florence told her family she had received a revelation from God, telling her she had a mission in life, and she abandoned her active social life and marriage proposals to devote her life to serving others. Although her parents voiced strong objections and disapproval, Florence entered a training school for nurses and went on to become superintendent of a charity-supported medical facility. • When the Crimean War broke out in 1854, Florence volunteered as a nurse and organized a group of 38 nurses to work at a Turkish hospital. Her first order of business was to clean up the filthy and unsanitary conditions at the facility, greatly reducing the death rate among wounded soldiers. The hospital had been built atop an immense cesspool, which had poisoned the entire building. As a result of her efforts, Florence became the leading expert on waste sanitation and fresh water irrigation, and continued to strive for hygienic medical conditions. Because she frequently made her rounds after dark, walking the halls with a lamp and comforting patients throughout the night, she soon came to be known as “The Lady with the Lamp.” • As age 40, Florence created the Nightingale School for Nurses at London’s St. Thomas Hospital. She personally trained the nurses and midwives herself, stressing the need for hygiene and sanitary conditions. The school remains in operation today as part of King’s College in London. • During the Crimean War, Florence had become sick with “Crimean Fever,” which took its toll on her for the remainder of her life. Although she was confined to her bed much of the time after the war, she continued her efforts at improving hospital conditions. She frequently suffered from depression, probably the result of brucellosis, a fever common during the War. Florence’s symptoms lingered for decades. Even from her bed, Florence was active as a pioneer in the field of hospital planning. • Florence was responsible for bringing quality nursing to the United States through her mentoring and instruction of Linda Richards, America’s first professionally-trained nurse. Linda used Florence’s training and knowledge to establish high-quality nursing schools in the U.S. and Japan, and went on to create the first system for keeping individual medical records for patients. • In 1883, Queen Victoria awarded Florence the Royal Red Cross, a military decoration for exceptional service in military nursing. • As her health continued to fail, Florence rarely left her home, eventually becoming completely blind. She passed away at age 90 in London. The annual International Nurses Day is celebrated worldwide on May 12, in commemoration of Florence Nightingale’s birthday.

The American Kennel Club groups them with other “Toy Dogs” like Pugs and Yorkshire Terriers. Feline aficionados also use the term Maltese to describe cats that have a similarly silky, grayblue coat. • Colombian: This term means different things to different people, depending on how you get your “jones.” Narcotics dealers may refer to their products as Colombian, although the actual source is often unknown. Luckily, the majority of us prefer a bit of legal Colombian, as in the coffee grown in the South American nation. The prevalence of coffee shops throughout America is proof enough that many of us just can’t get along in the morning without a hot cup of Colombian. • Chinese: The generic “chinese” Two Cows are talking throughterm a fence.

Windmill Manor Proudly Presents Senior News Line by Matilda Charles
Medicare Change Is Hush-Hush It used to be that if seniors received physical
therapy, they had to get better or Medicare wouldn’t pay for it. If their condition later got worse, Medicare would jump back in and pay for more treatment. It was the same for coverage of other types of skilled care: rehabilitation, nursing (care that can’t be given by a non-medical person), speech therapy and more. No improvement meant that it wouldn’t be paid for. But some seniors won’t get better. Their improvement reaches a plateau and stops. Or perhaps they have a chronic disability. They do, however, need care to maintain the levels they currently have. And with home health or outpatient care, they could continue to live at home. There was a lawsuit, and the judge agreed: Getting better isn’t required to keep coverage. This change takes place immediately, and per a Kaiser Health News bulletin, it applies to “care by skilled professionals in outpatient therapy, home health care and nursing homes.” The agreement from the lawsuit, however, doesn’t require that Medicare tell us about the change. Apparently we’re supposed to find out by ourselves. But, from now on, claims filed, even if there hasn’t been any improvement in a senior’s condition, won’t be turned down automatically. At this point, it appears that some doctors and therapists don’t know about this change: If continued treatment is required, even past the standard dollar limit, they can put a code on the claim that states further treatment is medically necessary. According to the lawsuit, Medicare has until next January to notify employees who staff the 800-MEDICARE information line, doctors and other healthcare providers. If your providers say your coverage will come to an end, be sure to tell them about this important change.

AH-CHOO!
We all do it! Sneeze, that is. But why do we do it? These curious facts about this process are nothing to sneeze at! • The official name for sneezing is sternutation. It begins as a nerve transmission and is a signal telling your brain that something in your nose needs to come out. Something tickles the lining of your nose, and the nerves initiate a message to the brain stem, which causes a chain of events throughout the body in the chest, abdomen, face, eyelids, and mucus glands. All the areas work together to expel the irritant by forcing air, saliva, and mucus out of the mouth and nose. Sometimes it takes several sneezes to rid your nose of the irritant. • The most common stimuli are dust, pollen, and pepper, but they’re not the only things that can bring on a sneeze. Powerful aromas can cause you to sneeze, as well as a fluctuation in temperature, especially colder air. Exercise can trigger a sneeze since over-exertion can create drying in your nose and mouth. Plucking your eyebrows can even make you sneeze! It stimulates a facial nerve connected to our nasal passages. Similarly, rubbing your eyes can have the same effect. • Why don’t we sneeze in our sleep? The nerves that send a signal to the brain are also sleeping, so we don’t sneeze while we rest. • There are a few old wives’ tales about sneezing, including the belief that your heart stops. Although your chest contracts during a sneeze and blood flow is momentarily constricted, the heart does not stop. Its rhythm may be altered slightly for a few seconds, however. Some folks actually believe that your eyeballs can pop out of your head during a sneeze. The slight increase in blood pressure behind the eyes during a sneeze is certainly not enough to dislodge eyeballs from their sockets. • According to folklore, if you sneeze, company is coming over. In Asia, it means someone is talking about you behind your back. Now if your cat sneezes, it’s going to rain! • There are a number of theories as to why folks say “Bless you” to someone after a sneeze. One is an ancient belief that sneezing is a neardeath experience, and it’s a blessing to have survived. The ancients also believed that the soul sneaks out of the body during a sneeze and that a blessing will prevent this and deter the devil from sneaking in. During the Roman Empire when bubonic plague struck, two of its symptoms were coughing and sneezing. The Pope recommended a blessing to people after a sneeze as protection. • When Donna Griffiths of Worcestershire, England, was 12 years old back in 1981, she sneezed once, then again, then continuously for the next 978 days, the record for the longest sneeze in the world. • No matter how you say it, it’s still a sneeze! In English we say “ah-choo,” but the French say “atchoum,” the Japanese say “hakushon,” while Italians say “hapsu” and Swedes say “atjo.” • How fast does a sneeze travel? A single sneeze can send 100,000 germs into the air at a speed of about 100 mph. The bacteria from a sneeze can spread up to 150 feet away. • Although it’s tough to stop a sneeze, you can try breathing through your mouth and pinching the end of your nose.
