by Kathy Wolfe How much do you know about how our culture has evolved throughout the ages? This week, Tidbits explores the progress made over the centuries. • Archaeologists generally divide prehistoric eras into three ages – the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, and the Iron Age – named such for the material used for making implements and weapons. During the Stone Age, stone was fashioned with a sharp edge or a point, with the oldest known stone tools excavated from several sites in what is now Ethiopia. The Stone Age is divided into three sub-eras, the Paleolithic era (early), roughly 70,000 to 20,000 B.C., the Mesolithic era (middle), 20,000 to 7000 B.C., and the Neolithic era (new), 7000 to 3000 B.C. The period of the Bronze Age is considered to be from 3000 to 1200 B.C., and ushered in the use of copper and tin with the alloy bronze in the manufacture of tools and weapons. The Iron Age occurred between 1200 and 600 B.C., when the harder and tougher iron replaced bronze. Cultural changes accompanied the difference in metal, as newer agricultural practices, religious beliefs, and artistic styles evolved. Decorative designs on ornaments and pottery became prevalent. Blacksmiths were hammering items into shape, advancing away from the Bronze Age’s method of casting. Turn the page for more!

• The period of European history from the 5th to the 15th centuries is referred to as the Middle Ages. It began after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire and the abdication of Romulus Augustus in the year 476. The early Middle Ages were called the Dark Ages, lasting until about 1000, during which time there was a drastic deterioration in cultural development and the economy, as well as an increase in wars. The part of the Middle Ages commonly known as the Medieval Period, began around 1000, and continued until the Renaissance began in the 16th century. Gothic art and architecture appeared during this era.

• According to Greek mythology, there are several stages of human existence on Earth. During the Golden Age, the first race of mortals, dubbed the golden race (meaning good and noble), was created by the gods and held conversations with them. There was an endless abundance of food and no need for agriculture. This age was characterized by peace, harmony, and prosperity. The mortals lived to an old age while maintaining their youthful appearance, and eventually died very peaceful deaths. The Silver Age followed, with the mortals described as foolish and immature, who refused to worship the gods and goddesses. According to mythology, this so angered Zeus, he destroyed the silver race. The mortals of the mythological Bronze Age were hardened and tough, caught up in wars. This race was undone by their own violence. The Heroic Age was the period of heroes who fought at Troy. In the Iron Age, pain and evil ran rampant, with humans living in toil and misery, and with no shame over wrongdoing.

• The Age of Discovery started in the early 1400s and continued to the 1600s. Also called the Age of Exploration, it was the time when Europeans began travels in search of new sea trade routes to what they thought were the East Indies. The Portuguese and Spanish dominated the exploration – Vasco da Gama, Magellan, Balboa, Cortes, Ponce de Leon, and, of course, Columbus were the leaders of the more well-known voyages of discovery. • When the Earth undergoes a long-term reduction in surface and atmospheric temperatures, glaciers and ice sheets may expand. This is known as an ice age, or more accurately, a glacial age. Experts say there have been at least five major ice ages over the Earth’s history. They are probably the result of an interaction between very small changes in the Earth’s orbit, changes in ocean currents, and changes in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. We can see the effects of glaciers across the continent – the Great Lakes and most of Minnesota’s and Wisconsin’s lakes were carved out by glaciers and filled up with melting water. • During the 17th and 18th centuries, the world moved into the Age of Enlightenment, a cultural movement promoted by the intellectuals of that time, such as Isaac Newton and Voltaire. They attempted to lead the world away from superstition, irrationality, and tyranny and toward knowledge through science and reason. It was based on faith in nature and belief in human progress, with hostility toward organized religion and monarchy. The “enlightened” believed that people were naturally good and would work to further the happiness of others. Q: Why did the TV cross the road? A: Because it wanted to be a flat screen.

(continued): • The period between 1750 and 1850 was the Industrial Age, when dramatic advances in manufacturing, transportation, and technology produced powerful changes in the economy and culture. The introduction of steam power and improvements in mining created huge advancements. Manufacturing machines allowed mass production of goods. • The 1920s, commonly called the Roaring Twenties, was a time of economic prosperity and rapid industrial growth. Drastic social changes came along, including the growth of jazz music, which was so popular that the decade became known as the Jazz Age. The sounds of Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller, and Benny Goodman dominated popular music. It was a time of breaking with tradition and turning toward modern technology. Young people took joy in shocking the older generation – women bobbed their hair and wore short skirts with silk stocking, taking on the nickname “Flappers.” The Jazz Age came tumbling down on October 29, 1929, with the crash of the stock market, ushering in the Great Depression. • We entered the Atomic Age when the first atomic bomb was detonated over Japan in 1945. The phrase Atomic Age was invented by a New York Times journalist named William Laurence, who was the official journalist for the U.S. Manhattan Project, which developed the first nuclear weapons. After witnessing the Japan bombings, he wrote a series of articles supporting the advantages of the new weapon. • Today we are part of the Information (or Digital) Age, characterized by our increases in technology and how we receive our information. We are also in the Social Age, which places more emphasis on people’s needs through various social networks.

It seems like anymore you can’t go a day without hearing about sleep apnea. Whether it is a family member, a friend or a TV commercial, talk of sleep apnea is very prevalent in today’s society. Sleep apnea, in simple terms, is your sleeping body fighting to breathe. Some obvious signs are choking halts or gasping efforts to breathe. Quite often, snoring goes hand-in-hand with sleep apnea. Leaving sleep apnea untreated can cause serious and prolonged health issues, and potentially death. The gasping for breath in your sleep sends shockwaves through your system, most adversely affecting your heart and your brain. A sleep apnea event could be occurring several times a minute. Have you ever thought you had sleep apnea, or maybe a family member thinks you might? Let’s look at some of the symptoms that would indicate the possible presence of sleep apnea. While awake… • Do you wake up in the morning tired and foggy, not ready to face the day? • Do you have headaches in the morning? • Are you very sleepy during the day? • Do you fall asleep easily during the day? • Do you carry out routine tasks in a daze? • Have you ever arrived home in your car but couldn’t remember the trip from work? While you sleep… • Do you snore loudly each night? • Do you have frequent pauses in breathing? • Are you restless during sleep? • Does your sleep posture seem unusual? • Do you have insomnia? • Have you fallen from your bed? • Medical conditions or lifestyle… Are you overweight? • Do you have high blood pressure? • Do you have pains in your bones and joints? • Have trouble breathing through your nose? • Do you often have a drink of alcohol before going to bed? • If you are a man, is your collar size 17” (42cm) or larger? If you feel you or a family member might have sleep apnea, speak with your doctor about it. The doctor may feel it is appropriate to have a sleep test done to find out for sure what is going on while you sleep. Besides feeling better with sleep apnea being treated properly, it will definitely help with your internal body. The key point of this article is: Do not let sleep apnea go untreated! Get help and get better! Respiratory Therapist A-1 Home Healthcare 3223 1st Ave SE Cedar Rapids, IA 52402

Often referred to as the “Mother of Modern Physics,” Marie Curie was the first famous woman scientist in the modern world. Here’s your opportunity to learn more about the woman who made many significant contributions to the research of radioactivity. • Born in Poland in 1867 to a physics teacher father and an educator mother, Marie enrolled at the Sorbonne in Paris for her higher education. She graduated first in the class of physics and in second place in mathematics, and immediately began work as a researcher. • Alongside her fellow researcher husband, Pierre Curie, the pair studied the elements and radioactivity. Marie was the first to discover radioactivity in an element, thorium. She and Pierre went on to discover two new elements, polonium (which she named for her native Poland) and radium. As a result of her 1903 dissertation on radium, she was awarded a doctorate in science, the first ever for a woman in all of Europe. The Curies received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 for their work, and Marie became the first woman to be awarded this prestigious prize. Their prize winnings were poured back into their research. • The year 1904 was an eventful one for Marie – she was awarded a professorship at the Sorbonne, established the use of radiation therapy for cancer, and gave birth to her second child. Just two years later, Pierre was run over by a horse-drawn carriage in Paris and died, leaving Marie a widow at age 37 with two young daughters to raise alone. Shortly afterward, she was awarded Pierre’s department chair position at the Sorbonne, becoming the first woman ever to hold a chair there, and the first woman to teach at the Sorbonne. Although she was offered a national pension following Pierre’s death, she declined it. • Marie’s second Nobel Prize came along in 1911, this time in the field of Chemistry, for her isolation of pure radium. This set her apart as the only woman to win the Nobel Prize in two different fields up to that date. This time, Marie donated her prize money toward equipping World War I ambulances with portable X-ray machines, as well as establishing 200 permanent X-ray stations in France and Belgium. • The laboratories of the Radium Institute at the University of Paris opened in 1914, and the Curie Foundation was established in 1920 to work toward applying radium in medical procedures. Marie’s daughter Irene joined her mother in her research at the Institute. • Marie Curie certainly passed on her brilliance to the next generation. In 1934, her daughter Irene and her husband discovered artificial radioactivity, an accomplishment for which they received a Nobel Prize in 1935. Unfortunately, Marie did not live to see her daughter’s award. Seemingly unaware of the effects of radioactivity on human health during all her years of research, Marie contracted leukemia, most likely due to her prolonged exposure. She died a few months after Irene’s discovery. Sadly, Irene developed leukemia as well and died from the effects of radiation exposure. The Curies’ notebooks recording their research remain so radioactive today that they still cannot be handled without protection, and are stored in lead-lined boxes. • The name Curie is a household word among scientists, as it is used as the name of the unit of measure for radioactivity.

No, Tidbits isn’t laughing about anything – we’re just bringing you all kinds of terms that begin with har-! •That comic jester dressed in a diamondpatterned robe, tights, and mask is known as a harlequin. This nimble clown has been performing his acrobatics and occasional magic tricks since the 11th century. The romance novel publishing company that took the name of Harlequin was founded in 1949 by a Canadian businessman. Today, the Toronto-based company publishes novels in 31 languages on six continents, with offices in Japan, Australia, Sweden, Spain, Greece, Brazil, and Turkey, among many others. Since its founding, more than six billion books have been sold. • The distinctive sound of the harmonica is achieved by blowing air into the instrument’s reed chambers. Each chamber has multiple reeds of varying sizes that vibrate when air is blown in or drawn out. Longer reeds will produce deep lower sounds, while the short reeds make higher pitches. The harmonica was developed in Europe in the early 1800s. •The prestigious Harvard University is America’s oldest institution of higher learning, established in 1636. It takes its name from an English clergyman, John Harvard, who was the first significant benefactor of the college, bequeathing his 400-volume library and half of his estate upon his death in 1638. The library’s humble beginnings have grown to the largest academic library in the United States. Eight U.S. presidents have graduated from Harvard, as well as 62 living billionaires. If you’re planning to attend this year, plan on handing over close to $55,000 for the tuition and related fees. • What are you eating if you’re dining on haricot vert? Green beans! Haricot translates from the French word for “beans” and vert means “green.” French cut green beans are longer and thinner and more tender. •In 1901, 21-year-old William S. Harley drafted a blueprint of an engine designed to fit into a bicycle. Two years later, he and his partner Arthur Davidson offered the first HarleyDavidson motorcycle to the public, working out of a 10 x 15-foot wooden shed. Their first dealer opened for business the following year in Chicago. In 1906, their new factory was erected, measuring 28 x 80 feet. About 20,000 Harley-Davidson motorcycles were used by the U.S. Army during World War I, with half of the company’s production during those years sold to the military. This year, the company expects to ship more than a quarter million motorcycles worldwide. • A person described as harum-scarum lacks a sense of responsibility and behaves in a reckless manner. It’s also the name of a 1965 Elvis Presley musical film, in which the King plays a kidnapped American in the Middle East who is recruited by a group of assassins. Elvis’ 24th album by the same name was released that year. • If you’re familiar with the terms picot and Kloster block, you may be an experienced embroiderer. These stitches are performed on hardanger fabric, a woven cotton material, typically with 22 stitches per inch. The technique is thought to have its origins in ancient Persia. A picot is a decorative loop achieved by twisting the thread around the needle. Kloster blocks consist of five parallel satin stitches.

The police department says that the cameras are monitored by a private company and that they send out the citations in the mail. They also state that the citation may seem like junk mail. I'm curious as to how many people bother to open what appears to be junk mail. Please send me your comments concerning anything about the use of the cameras, the city contracting out this service and especially about junk mail. I'm also informed that they will punish you by reporting any unpaid tickets to the credit bureaus. If you have any comments about this practice also since it seems very unethical since no drivers or vehicle owners ever signed any documents stating that this third party agency or the city can prosecute you without first appearing before a judge. The police claim that this is a civil matter. If that is the case, then why is it not the responsibility of the contractor or the city to serve you as other individuals are required to do so rather then by the use of junk mail? They seem to be skipping a step in this legal process. I wonder if that is why the state of Iowa legislature has been questioning the legality of traffic cameras and our governor says he will sign a bill to ban the use of all cameras. Please send your comments to: By Larry Copeland, USA TODAY online 1/18/2010 classifieds@tidbitpapers.com Red-light cameras that have been gaining a foothold in many states face a growing public backlash and outright removal. or snail mail to: The cameras, billed as safety devices since their introduction in the USA nearly 20 years ago, are increasingly viewed Hawkeye Publishing L.L.C. by many motorists as unreasoning revenue generators for hard-up local governments. 162 Collins Road. NE Maine, Mississippi and Montana banned red light cameras last year, joining at least four other states, Nevada, New PMB 321 Hampshire, West Virginia and Wisconsin, says Anne Teigen, a transportation specialist at the National Conference Cedar Rapids, IA 52402 of State Legislatures. State senators in Missouri and Tennessee are sponsoring legislation that would limit cameras. Elsewhere: • Voters in three cities — Chillicothe and Heath, Ohio, and College Station, Texas— passed referendums in November banning the cameras. "Red-light cameras have never survived a voter referendum," says Greg Mauz, a longtime camera opponent who has researched them extensively. • Nearly 1,000 motorists in south Florida have filed 18 lawsuits against the cameras, saying the devices are unconstitutional because they force drivers to prove their innocence rather than the government to prove their guilt. "I felt as though I had no say," Beverly Baird Boothe, a retired educator, says of her appeal of a citation in Orlando. "There is no democratic process." • An Illinois lawmaker who helped bring red-light cameras to the state in 2006 says he'll introduce bills this year to sharply limit their use. "They were sold to us in a different manner than what they're being used for," says state Rep. Jack Franks, a Democrat. "The municipalities have put them in areas where they're just to make revenue." He says that since 2006, crashes have increased at half the intersections in Illinois that have cameras, stayed the same at 25% and decreased at 25%.
