• A slipshoe was an old word for a slipper, comfortable footwear for use in the home. People who wore these informal slippers in public places instead of the regular shoes were said to be “slipshod.” Now it means anything done in a careless fashion. • When horses are “rough-shod” they have shoes on which have the ends of the nails sticking out. This gives the horse more traction, but it tears up the ground the animal travels over. When someone “rides rough-shod” over another person, they are trampling the ground beneath them without caring. • Wooden shoes called “sabots” were popular in days gone by because they were cheaper than leather shoes. They gave us our word “sabotage.” One story is that when workers went on strike, they would throw their “sabots” into the factory’s machinery, ruining the gears in an act of “sabotage.” Another more likely story is that because walking in wooden shoes is clunky and clumsy, and people wearing them tended to be bungling, therefore anything that was deliberately bungled up was “sabotaged.” (cont’d next page)

• Stiletto comes from the Italian word stilo meaning ‘dagger’ or ‘stylus.’ The contemporary stiletto was invented in the 1950s by Italian shoe designer Salvatore Ferragamo, who made his first pair for Marilyn Monroe using alligator hide. The styles back then were tame by today’s standards, with heels no taller than about 3 inches.
• The word “sneaker” is often attributed to an advertising agent who, in 1917, coined the term because the rubber sole made the shoe stealthy. The name “sneakers” referred to how quiet the rubber soles were on the ground, in contrast to noisy hard leather-soled dress shoes. Someone wearing sneakers could “sneak up” on you while someone wearing standard shoes could not.

Stop the Dam from
Bursting
Picture the little boy trying to stop several small leaks with his fingers and toes to prevent the dam from bursting. Solomon wrote, “The start of a quarrel is like a leak in a dam, so stop it before it bursts.” Proverbs 17:14. A person who starts a quarrel here and there will someday be the source of an eruption of major proportions. A trickle that becomes a torrent starts out as more water flowing than predicted. The trickle then leads to water flow that is impossible to control. The burst then leads to water that will never be retrieved. So the solution is to not allow the dam to be breached. James wrote, “I’ll be swift to hear, slow to speak, pushing down my anger for the Lord.” To prevent a flood the best thing to do is shut up!!! www.seeds4seniors.org
He’s so stupid he ended up with his shoes on the wrong feet – he put them on while he had his legs crossed.
A little boy puts his shoes on by himself, but his mother notices he’s got them mixed up. ‘Sweetie,’ she says. ‘You’ve put your shoes on the wrong feet.’ The little boy looks at her and says, ‘But these are the only feet I’ve got!’

MORE SHOE FACTS
• Because of stringent new environmental laws in Europe, the chemical composition of Barbie dolls changed to a softer plastic that doesn’t produce as many toxic gases when burned. To show that the new plastic was non-toxic to children who might swallow pieces of Barbie, they tied plastic Barbie shoes to tethers and fed them to pigs. The shoes were retrieved at various points in the digestive process and weighed to show that there was no absorption. (WOW!) • In the 1950s DuPont decided leather was no good for shoes because leather wears out. DuPont invented an imitation leather that they claimed would never wear out. They called it Corfam. Not only did Corfam never wear out, it also never broke in. Shoes would not mold themselves to fit the wearer’s foot like leather does. Instead, the shoes “wore like armor plate,” according to “Time” magazine. Corfam did not breathe like leather, resulting in hot sweaty feet, and it was also more expensive than leather. DuPont lost over a quarter million dollars on Corfam shoes. (Engineers! Wow)

Did you hear about the little shoe who was upset? Its father was a loafer and its mother was a sneaker.
SHOES IN SPORTS
• Bobby Jones was golfing in the Southern Amateur Tournament in New Orleans in 1920 when his ball landed inside an old shoe that was sitting on top of a wheelbarrow. Jones decided not to take the penalty for dropping the ball out of the shoe, and instead he played the shoe. He whacked it as hard as he could. The ball flew out and kept rolling, landing a few feet from the green. Jones made par. • During a 1967 soccer game in Bulgaria, the referee got down on one knee and bowed his head. Members of both teams assumed he was praying, so they also got down on their knees to pray. The spectators joined in the moment of reverent silence. Then the referee finished tying his shoelace. • John McEnroe tied his shoelaces seven times during a single Wimbledon match in 1979 in an effort to stall for time. • Writer and prankster Wilson Mizner was playing poker when an opponent took out his wallet and tossed it into the pot saying, “I call you.” Mizner replied by removing his shoe and placing it on the table as well. He announced, “If we’re playing for leather, I raise!”

What do running shoes do when they forget something? They jog their memory.
• Some islanders used to use the skin of sea cucumbers to make shoes. • Up until the 1700s, both men and women wore high heels. • The world’s largest shoe size was 37AA worn by Robert Wadlow back in 1940. Wadlow was the tallest man in the world at 8 ft. 11 inches. • The average American woman buys about five pairs of shoes each year, and the average man, about two pairs. • Cowboy boots have heels to help a rider’s feet stay in the stirrups. • The inside of a banana peel is a great shoe polisher for patent leather. • There are about a quarter million sweat glands in an average pair of feet.
FAMOUS SHOE OWNERS
• Darlene Flynn owns 7,765 shoerelated items, including a replica of the Disney Cinderella glass slipper, leather moccasins, cloth shoes, cast iron boots, a red-stiletto shoe phone, and even a shoe made from the ash collected at Mount St. Helen’s volcanic eruption. • Imelda Marcos owned over 1,000 pairs of shoes, which, if laid heel-to-toe, would equal almost the length of the Eiffel Tower. Some people estimate that she actually had between 3,000 and 7,500 pairs of shoes, but some were stolen or destroyed when her husband, President Ferdinand Marcos, was deposed. She also had 15 mink coats, 508 gowns, and over 1,000 handbags.

* On July 19, 1879, Doc Holliday kills a man for shooting up his saloon. Despite his reputation as a deadly gunslinger, Doc Holliday engaged in just eight shootouts and killed only two men. The second was at the O.K. Corral in 1881. * On July 17, 1944, an ammunition ship explodes while being loaded in Port Chicago, California, killing 332 people. Poor procedures and lack of training led to the disaster. The blasts were felt as far away as Nevada. * On July 15, 1971, President Richard Nixon stuns the nation by announcing that he will visit communist China. Since the Communists came to power in China in 1949, Nixon had been one of its most vociferous critics. * On July 13, 1985, in London, Prince Charles and Princess Diana officially open Live Aid, a worldwide rock concert to raise money for the relief of faminestricken Africans. The 16-hour concert was globally linked by satellite to more than a billion viewers in 110 countries. * On July 14, 1995, the MP3 file compression format is born, allowing music files small enough to be stored in bulk.

Tempers flare at home. Watch yourself, Libra. It could be contagious. A challenge is con-quered at work. Spread the word and arrange for a celebration.
NOW HERE’S A TIP
* “Many people keep some pet food outdoors. If you have problems with ants in your pet’s food if feeding outside, you will like this trick: Place the bowl of food into a larger pan filled with water. The ants can’t cross it, and it has the added bonus of being another source of water for the animals. Be sure to change it frequently.” -- P.Y. in Alabama * Witch hazel is an old remedy for bruises and bumps. You can find it in the first-aid aisle by the peroxide and rubbing alcohol. Simply moisten a folded paper towel, and park it right on the bump (never near the eyes or mouth). It prevents bruising and can lessen swelling in some cases. * Need to cross out a note so nobody can read it? Take this tip to the scratch pad: Instead of scribbling over something to be crossed out, write random letters over your words until the whole thing is illegible.
Fret, fret, fret. Worry-ing is not going to help, Gemini. A loved one can, however, but you have to ask them first. Travel plans develop a wrinkle, which is easily smoothed out.
The debate continues at home, and sparks fly. Don’t join in unless you are prepar-ed to go the distance, Sagittarius. A friend-ship is sorely tested.

Milk Chocolate Is Healthy, Too
When a study comes out showing that chocolate is good for our health, chocolate lovers rejoice. Now a new study has more good news: Even milk chocolate qualifies. The study in the British journal Heart tracked 20,000 participants for nearly 12 years. Its conclusion? A higher intake of chocolate reduced the risk of cardiovascular events: 11 percent lower for cardiovascular disease, and 25 percent lower for associated death. High intake of chocolate resulted in a 23 percent lower risk of stroke. The bonus: Most of the participants ate milk chocolate, not the allegedly healthier dark chocolate. In years past, the chocolate health studies have said: * Dark chocolate (not milk or white) helps to lower blood pressure. Researchers tested this by having participants swap back and forth at 18-week intervals. * It was the polyphenol antioxidants in cocoa that helped because of the antioxidants -- there are more in chocolate than in red grapes, cranberries or blueberries. The polyphenols cause the blood vessels to open, lowering blood pressure. * A study of men and women who’d had a heart attack showed that chocolate cut the risk of dying from heart problems by nearly 70 percent. Eating chocolate even once a week still cut the risk in half. So while the new research isn’t 100 percent certain in its conclusions, there appears to be something in chocolate that’s good for us. While we wait for scientists to isolate what it is, ask your doctor if adding a bit of chocolate to your diet is a good idea -- just in case. Also ask your doctor to suggest an amount, to err on the side of caution.

Cedar Rapids Community Concerts Announces Their 2015 2016 Season!
The Cedar Rapids Community Concert Association has a long history of providing exceptional entertainment at a great price to Cedar Rapids and the surrounding community. Now in its 85th season, the CRCCA began in 1930 as a new way to offer top-name entertainers to smaller cities – rather than hiring the act and then trying to sell enough tickets to pay for it, community concert associations would sell memberships and then use those proceeds to secure a full season of concerts in advance. 5 Live Concerts for only $40.00, $45.00 after July 15th. All concerts are at the Paramount Theatre in Cedar Rapids, IA. September 8th kicks off the season with Ethan Bortnick. As seen on Oprah & Good Morning America “The World’s Youngest Solo Musician to Headline His Own Tour” (Guinness World Record). Engaging, charismatic super-talented pianist/vocalist presents an inviting program of classical, jazz and popular music favorites. Youthful international sensation creates unparalleled concert and community engagement opprotunity. October 4th, will be Savanhah Jack. High Energy Crowd Interactive Experience Musican-Vocalists Don Gatlin, Jay Darby and Matt Schumacher, along with guitar and drums, feature music from all genres with tight harmonies and incredible musicianship. Big Harmonies. Big Hits. Big Sounds. November 16th, is the International String Trio. April 12th, Jive Aces will be appearing. Our fifth concert this season will end April 29th with the Eastern Iowa Brass Band on. The 35 member
ensemble performs from a repertoire which features original works for brass band, as well as arrangements of well known orchestral and wind band literature For more information and membership details visit: www.crcommunityconcert.org or call (319)540-2301

WILLIAM SCHOLL
• William Scholl was born in LaPorte, Indiana in 1882 as one of 13 children. Even as a boy on a mid-western farm, William was interested in feet and shoes. As a teen he learned to make shoes, and then was apprenticed to a cobbler. • When he moved to Chicago to set up his own shop, he noticed how many people had trouble with corns, bunions, and fallen arches, and he was appalled. So he worked as a shoe salesman by day and put himself through medical school by night, becoming a podiatrist in 1904 at the age of 22. • That same year he patented an arch support which he peddled to other shoe salesmen, and its popularity gave him the capital he needed to invent more products for the feet, including remedies for corns, bunions, warts, calluses, foot odor, ingrown toenails, athlete’s foot, and many other foot-related ailments. • He established a correspondence course to teach basic podiatry to shoe store clerks and sent a team of trained sales representatives around the country to deliver public lectures on proper foot care. • In 1916 William Scholl sponsored the national Cinderella Foot Contest to find the most beautiful feet in the U.S. Ladies flocked to shoe stores by the thousands to have their feet measured and scrutinized, and pictures of the prize-winning feet were published in magazines and newspapers nationwide. Then the ladies flocked to drugstores by the thousands to buy Scholl’s products in order to make their feet look more beautiful. • By the time he died in Chicago in 1968, William Scholl’s line of foot care products eventually expanded to include over a thousand different items. He left the company to his nephews, and it still flourishes today.

QUIZ: ADOLPH DASSLER
• Born in Germany in 1900, Adolf Dassler, who went by the nickname of Adi, loved tap dancing. He began creating his own tap shoes and got a lot of advice from his father, who worked in a shoe factory, manufacturing cleats for athletes. After he returned from service during World War I, he set up a cobbler’s shop in his mother’s laundry. Adi decided to go into the dance shoe business, and his brother joined him in the venture, which they called the Dassler Brothers Shoe Company. • At the World Tap Dancing Competition in 1928, Adi outfitted a number of the top competitors, and sales of his shoes climbed. During World War II, Adi was drafted into producing boots for soldiers. • After the war, Adi and his brother split up and his brother started a sports shoe company called Puma. Adi renamed his own company, combining several letters from both his first and last names. He designed his company’s three-striped logo. He branched out and soon was making 30 different types of shoes for 11 different sports. • Much of his success was due to his close contact with the athletes who wore his shoes, and his persistent presence at sporting events. Sales skyrocketed after Germany won the World Soccer Cup in 1954 with every member of the team wearing his shoes. He got many famous athletes to use his footwear including Jesse Owens and Muhammad Ali. • Aggressive marketing was a cornerstone of his business, and he expanded into many different sporting goods. When Adi died in 1978, his son took over the business. Today the shoe company Adi founded is the second largest sportswear manufacturer in the world. Can you name it? Answer: Adidas
Cedar Rapids Skyhawks host Annual Warbirds over Iowa to benefit Eastern Iowa Honor Flight
Aircraft of varying sizes and types are represented, some as large as 12’ across with four engines. Many of the aircraft have exceptional scale detail and can drop simulated “bombs” in the interest of realism as they compete for awards like Best Flight, Best Scale Appearance, and Pilot's Choice. Aircraft from multiple nations and eras will be flown including WW1 Fighters, WW2 Fighters and Bombers, and even modern jets powered by actual turbine engines. The event is a draw to pilots in surrounding states and also a fund raiser for Eastern Iowa Honor Flight. Donations will be taken for the organization that allows veterans to fly to Washington to visit their memorials. Models will be flown by pilots from Iowa as well as surrounding areas. Spectators of all ages are welcome and admission is free. A special invite is extended to veterans. Many of the radio control pilots are interested in aviation history and will enjoy speaking with our aviation veterans. Any donations to benefit Eastern Iowa Honor Flight from both pilots and spectators will be gladly accepted. **Aircraft will fly throughout the day 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Saturday, July 18th. In the case of bad weather, the event will be moved to Sunday July 19th. Lunch will be available as provided by Hy-Vee. For more information, visit the website at: www.crskyhawks.org **The event is located at the Skyhawks club field north of town near county home road. Turn south on C Avenue from County Home Road, then take the first left.

HOT DOGS
• Because July is National Hot Dog Month, take a bite out of these hot dog facts! • To celebrate National Hot Dog Month, the American Meat Institute sponsors the annual Hot Dog Lunch on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. Over 1,000 lawmakers, officials, and congressional staff help themselves to 4,000 hot dogs (enough to circle the Capitol dome four times) along with potato chips and Cracker Jacks while hob-nobbing with various baseball personalities. In 2001, People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) sponsored a vegetarian event on the same day as the Hot Dog Lunch. Playboy bunnies clad in lettuce-like bikinis served up vegetarian “not-dogs” to interested staffers. The event, billed as “Lettuce Entertain You,” offered cholesterol-free fat-free veggie dogs to about 500 people.

Lost Dog
• In June of 2002, Will Keller and Paula Pendleton were driving the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile across the country on a yearlong tour of barbecue cook-offs and charity events. In Washington, D.C., they got lost and ended up going down a road near the Pentagon that is off limits to vehicles with six or more wheels. The road was closed to truck traffic following the Sept. 11 attacks for fear someone would drive a truck bomb close to the Pentagon. The Wienermobile was quickly pulled over by troopers who expected the wurst, and the drivers of the giant hot dog were grilled. Troopers found no bomb in the back of the hot dog, which was packed with boxes of Wienerwhistles, Wienermobile Hot Wheels, Wienie bean bag toys, and a karaoke machine featuring Wiener songs. Apparently not many terrorists pick a 27foot long bright red vehicle shaped like a hot dog to pull off a terrorist attack. When it was determined that they posed no threat to national security, the Wienermobile was released and the driver was directed to the proper road. They did not receive a ticket.
