TATIANA

The lyrics of a favorite Christmas carol say, “Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.” Let’s explore some interesting Tidbits about chestnuts, the subtly sweet, healthy nuts. • American chestnut trees were the dominant hardwood trees for food and timber in the Appalachian Mountains several hundred years ago. When Chinese chestnut trees were imported, a bark fungus came with them for which the American species had no resistance. The American chestnut died off; over 30 million acres (12 million ha) died from Maine to Georgia and west to the Ohio Valley from what was known as the chestnut blight. The death of these trees was one of the largest ecological disasters in America.

RESTAURANT AND NIGHT CLUB • Back in the heyday of American chestnuts, they were an important food for people and wildlife from birds to bears. COME JOIN US FOR A Rural communities depended on the nuts as a cash crop for TRADITIONAL THANKSGIVING feeding livestock, and the sale of lumber was also important DINNER, SPECTACULAR for rural economics. Another chestnut product was tannin, a SHOW & LIVE MUSIC! chemical substance found in some plants that is used in the leather tanning industry.

CHESTNUTS

(continued):

• James Carpentar of Salem, Ohio, a member of the Northern Nut Growers Association (NNGA), discovered a large living American chestnut in the midst of a grove of dead trees in the early 1950s. The tree showed no sign of blight infection. Carpentar and Dr. Robert T. Dunstan, another member of the NNGA and a well-known plant breeder in Greensboro, North Carolina, conducted research, grafting and cross-pollinating chestnut trees. They cross-pollinated grafts from the strong American chestnut with a mixture of three United States Department of Agriculture-released Chinese chestnut varieties. After years of work, Dunstan Hybrid Chestnuts were developed. They have a combination of American and Chinese traits. The first chestnuts to ever receive a U.S. Plant Patent, the Dunstan trees are healthy, vigorous trees that bear heavy annual crops of large, sweet-tasting nuts. • The grandson of Dr. Dunstan, R.D. Wallace, and his wife, Deborah A. Gaw, started Chestnut Hill Tree Farm in 1981 in Alachua, Florida. Dunstan Chestnuts are the most widely planted chestnut variety, and Chestnut Hill is a national leader in the chestnut industry. • The American Chestnut Foundation, started by plant scientists in 1983, is also working to reestablish American chestnut trees. They have worked to breed blight-resistant trees, while maintaining the characteristics of the original trees. The successful program has resulted in trees that retain “no Chinese characteristics other than blight resistance.” • Canadian scientists and naturalists established the Canadian Chestnut Council in 1988 to work on reestablishing the trees in Canada as well, mainly in Ontario. • There are fewer than 2,500 acres (1,012 ha) of chestnut orchards in the United States. We import $20 million of chestnuts annually. Our consumption of chestnuts is very low compared to Europe, Asia and Africa. Most chestnuts are imported from Japan, China, Spain and Italy. • Chestnuts are used as a potato substitute frequently in Europe, Asia and Africa. The nuts actually contain twice as much starch as potatoes. They are also similar to brown rice in their nutritional value and sometimes called a “grain that grows on a tree.” They are 40 percent carbohydrates and only 2-3 percent fat, compared to many nuts that contain 50 percent fat. They contain 5-10 percent high quality protein and no cholesterol.

• In some European countries, Catholics give chestnuts to the poor on the Feast of Saint Martin in November. Also, chestnuts are eaten as a traditional food on Saint Simon’s Day in Tuscany, Italy. • Chestnuts are excellent steamed or roasted. They are often included in dressing with turkey for holiday meals and are a great addition to soups and stews. Chestnuts can be ground into flour and used for baking pastries and bread. A traditional European dessert, “Mont Blanc,” has chestnuts sweetened with honey and topped with whipped cream. Also, a few beer brewers are now producing glutenfree chestnut beer. • One of the largest chestnut forests in the world is on the French island of Corsica. In the 16th century, landowners were ordered to plant four trees each year in an eastern mountainous area of the island. The town of Castagniccia, which means chestnut grove, became forested with magnificent chestnut trees. Today, that forest is dying from neglect. • Tourists and locals walking the streets of Beijing and other Chinese cities are likely to find chestnuts being roasted and sold by street vendors. About 40 percent of the world’s chestnuts are consumed in China. They roast them in ovens, on coals or even in hot sand. They also simmer them in numerous dishes and add them to soups. • American chestnut wood is straight-grained, easily workable, lightweight and highly rot-resistant. It is used for railroad ties, fence posts, barn beams and home construction, as well as for musical instruments and fine furniture. Healthy chestnut trees grow straight and tall, often not producing branches until around 50 feet (15 m). The trees are known for being used “from cradle to coffin.” • A famous piece of chestnut furniture is an armchair on display at the Longfellow National Historic Site, operated by the National Park Service, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The chair was a gift to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, one of the most widely read American poets of all time, from Cambridge children for his 72nd birthday. The chair was built from wood from the “spreading chestnut tree,” written about by Longfellow in “The Village Blacksmith.” The tree in the poem, that he and many others loved, was removed in 1876 in order to widen Brattle Street in Cambridge. • There are chestnut trees around still today, and restoration efforts are ongoing to return the American chestnut trees to their majestic glory. There are growers selling chestnuts in the fall, mostly blight resistant Chinese varieties. It is hoped that someday soon, there will be more healthy chestnut forests of the American variety that produce chestnuts for us to “roast on an open fire.”

OVERCOMING THE ODDS:

the defeat, he began planning and dreaming of becoming president. He told a friend, “The moment of defeat is the best time to plan for victory.”

FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT

Some U. S. presidents were born in poverty. Franklin Delano Roosevelt was not one of them. He led the country during the Great Depression. • President Roosevelt, known as FDR, didn’t know what it was like to be poor. Yet he had a desire from an early age to help others and was inspired politically by his distant cousin, Theodore Roosevelt, who was president from 1901 to 1909.

• The biggest challenge that would affect FDR the remainder of his life came as he was starting to plan for a future run at becoming president. In August of 1921, after swimming with his children at their Campobello Island summer home off the Atlantic coast of Canada, he became very ill. Initially thinking he was only sick with a cold or the flu, he went to bed to rest and heal. His fever climbed, and his arms and legs ached. He collapsed trying to get out of bed the next morning and was paralyzed by that afternoon. After seeing a specialist, FDR was diagnosed with polio.

• FDR was home-schooled by his mother when he was young, and then nannies and tutors as he grew. He graduated from Groton School in Massachusetts, then Harvard College, and he attended Columbia Law School. • In 1905, FDR married his distant fifth cousin, Eleanor. He began practicing law in 1907 in New York City. He did not enjoy working as a lawyer and with his strong desire to serve others and plenty of money for campaigning for public office, he was readily available to run for Senator when Democrats asked him to do so. • FDR won his first election to the New York State Senate in 1910. In 1911, while campaigning for reelection, he and Eleanor both caught a serious illness, typhoid fever. This was the first obstacle FDR needed to overcome. He was forced to stay in bed for weeks during his campaign. Even so, FDR won reelection. • FDR became Secretary for the U.S. Navy and held that post through Word War I. He then ran as the Democratic vice presidential candidate in 1920 but was defeated. After

TEDDY BEARS Presidents are remembered for their historic decisions in leadership, whether good or bad. Few are remembered for inspiring a toy whose popularity has endured around the world for many generations. • Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt was President of the United States from 1901 to 1909. A cartoon that appeared in The Washington Post on November 16, 1902, drawn by Clifford Berryman, was the inspiration for a toy that has stood the test of time. • The cartoon depicted an incident that happened when the President, an avid hunter, was on a bear-hunting trip in Mississippi. The hunting had been disappointing, and, wanting to please the president, guides captured a bear and tied him to a tree for the president to shoot. President Roosevelt refused to shoot the captive animal. News spread, and Berryman drew a memorable cartoon to depict the event. • Brooklyn shopkeeper Morris Mitchom asked his wife, Rose, a seamstress, to sew a jointed bear that resembled the bear in Berryman’s cartoon. They put the bear in their shop window with a sign that said, “Teddy’s Bear.” The bear sold quickly, and they had a hard time keeping up with demand as word spread about their creation. • Mitchom wrote a letter asking President Roosevelt for permission to name his popular bear “Teddy.” The president sent Mitchom a hand-written reply. He is quoted as saying, “I don’t think my name is likely to be worth much in the toy bear business, but you are welcome to use it.” • The Mitchoms’ bears were so successful that they started the Ideal Novelty and Toy Company, with their main

• There was no cure for polio, and treatments were not very effective. Roosevelt worked hard, exercising and swimming in warm water daily. He regained a lot of his strength but his legs never recovered. From that point on, he was forced to use braces, crutches or a wheelchair to get around. • Even from a wheelchair, he had much determination and wanted to help others. In 1927, he founded the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation, a center for the treatment of polio victims. • FDR served as governor of New York from 1928 to 1932. When Democrats asked him to run for president in 1932, during the Great Depression, Eleanor wasn’t sure it was a good idea. She, of course, supported him in whatever he decided. She once said, “If polio didn’t kill him, the presidency won’t!” • Franklin Roosevelt was elected president in 1932, and reelected three times in 1936, 1940 and 1944. The only American president elected to four terms, he served during the Great Depression and World War II. success being Teddy Bears. • At about the same time that Teddy Bears were becoming the hot toy item in the United States, Margarete Steiff, a disabled German seamstress, started making stuffed toy bears at a toy factory in Geingen, Germany. The Steiff bears were based on drawings from Margarete’s nephew, Richard. Richard was an art student and sketched bear cubs that were at the Stuttgart Zoo. • The Michtoms’ bear resembled the Berryman cartoon bear, while the Steiff bear looked more like a real bear cub with a humped back and long snout. • An American toy buyer ordered 3,000 Steiff bears in 1903, realizing that Teddy bear popularity in the United States was growing. Millions of Steiff bears were sold between 1903 and World War I. In 1905, a trademark button in the left ear was added to Steiff bears. • Steiff and Michtom bears are valuable collectors’ toys today. The popularity of the original bears led to many other manufacturers putting out toy bears through the years, and the popularity of teddy bears has continued. • In fact, the teddy bear was so loved, President Roosevelt used the song “The Teddy Bears’ Picnic” in his re-election campaign in 1904. • In 1986, the Theodore Roosevelt Association started the Teddy Bears for Kids Program. The goal of the program is to: “… help make sick children smile and feel safe.” The Association, which is a national historic organization chartered in 1920 by an Act of Congress, is dedicated to keeping the legacy of Theodore Roosevelt alive. Since its inception, there have been more than 74,000 teddy bears given to children’s hospitals for sick children across the nation.

On Nov. 28, 1582, William Shakespeare, 18, and Anne Hathaway, 26, pay a 40-pound bond for their marriage license in Stratford-upon-Avon. Six months later, Anne gave birth to their daughter, Susanna, and two years later, to twins. Shakespeare’s plays were not published until after his death, when two members of his troupe collected copies of his plays and printed the First Folio (1623). • On Dec. 4, 1928, “Dapper Dan” Hogan, a St. Paul, Minn., saloonkeeper and mob boss, is killed when someone plants a car bomb under the floorboards of his new Paige coupe. The first car bomb was a horse-drawn-wagon bomb that exploded in 1920 outside the J.P. Morgan Company’s offices in New York City. • On Nov. 29, 1942, coffee joins the list of items rationed in the United States. Rationing was generally employed to guarantee a fair distribution to all citizens and to give priority to military use in World War II. • On Dec. 2, 1959, the Malpasset Dam in France collapses after a week-long rain storm, and the resulting flood kills more than 400 people. The city of Frejus, built by Roman Emperor Julius Caesar as a port city on the French Riviera, was devastated by the massive flood. • On Dec. 3, 1979, 11 people are killed in a stampede outside a Who concert in Cincinnati when a crowd of generaladmission ticket-holders surges forward through shattered doors in an attempt to secure prime unreserved seats inside. After the crowd cleared, 11 concert-goers were found on the ground, dead from asphyxiation. • On Nov. 30, 1989, Aileen Wuornos, America’s first female serial killer, picks up her first victim in Palm Harbor, Fla. She would kill a total of seven men in the next year. When caught, Wuornos confessed but claimed that they had all been killed in self-defense. make more films in the same vein as “The Twilight Saga” • On Dec. 1, 1990, workers 132 feet below the English Channel drill through a final wall of rock, opening the if they want their fans to support them! “Chunnel” and connecting the two ends of an underwater tunnel linking Folkestone, England, and Calais, France. ***

HOLLYWOOD -- “The Twilight Saga” fans are anxiously awaiting “Breaking Dawn,” Part 1, due out this month. However, Part 2, won’t be released until November 2012. The original “Twilight” cost $37 million and grossed $392.5 million. The second in the series, “New Moon,” cost $50 million and grossed $709.7 million. The third episode, “Eclipse,” cost $68 million and grossed $698.5 million. “Breaking Dawn,” parts 1 and 2, cost $263 million. There’s no doubt this saga has made big stars of its three leads -- Robert Pattison, Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart -- but somehow it hasn’t transferred to other films. Pattinson’s $38 million “Water For Elephants,” despite Oscar-winner Reese Witherspoon as his co-star, grossed only $117 million worldwide. He has “Cosmopolis,” directed by David Cronenberg from his screenplay, with Paul Giamatti and Juliette Binoche, and “Bel Ami,” with Uma Thurman, Kristin Scott Thomas and Christina Ricci, coming out soon. The same problem befell Lautner, whose $35 million “Abduction” grossed only $71.6 million. Stewart has fared even worse. Her $10 million film, “The Runaways,” brought in a paltry $4.6 million. She has two films due out, “Snow White and The Huntsman,” with (“Thor”) Chris Hemsworth, as the Huntsman, due out in June (the first of a trilogy), and “On the Road” with Sam Riley and Viggo Mortensen. It looks like they’ll have to

The Liberace bio film, “Behind the Candelabra,” starring Michael Douglas and Matt Damon, has found a home at HBO. Producer Jerry Weintraub made his bestselling book, “When I Stop Talking, You’ll Know I’m Dead”, about handling Elvis, Frank Sinatra and John Denver, among others, into the hit HBO documentary, “His Way.” “I knew Liberace when I was a kid,” Jerry said. “He was Elton John and Lady Gaga before they ever dreamed of it! I picked HBO because of its huge subscription base.” Steven Soderbergh will direct and shoot in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Palm Springs, where Liberace had homes. *** Goldie Hawn’s second husband, Bill Hudson, has written a tell-all book about his four-year marriage to Goldie and his relationship with their two actor children, Kate and Oliver. Goldie and Kate aren’t thrilled with the content of the book, and in fact, Kate and her father aren’t even on speaking terms. No word if the book will include his 18-year marriage to “Laverne and Shirley” star Cindy Williams and their two children. Look on the bright side, Goldie, he’ll be telling all your secrets just for money, but you’ve always had more fame and money than he’s ever had, which makes him nothing more than a ... Gold-iedigger!

by Samantha Weaver • It was 18th-century German scientist Georg Christoph Lichtenberg who made the following sage observation: “Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.” • “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” (popularly known by a line from the chorus, “Glory, glory hallelujah”) was written by Julia Ward Howe in November of 1861 after the author made a trip to Washington, D.C., and reviewed Union troops near the city. The song was published the following February in The Atlantic Monthly magazine, earning Howe a grand total of $4 for what was destined to become one of the most popular songs of the Civil War and a perennial American classic.

• Becoming a sports star is the dream of many young people, so you might think that someone who is signed to a professional baseball contract has it made. You’d be wrong, though; only one out of every 10 athletes who sign such a contract ever becomes a major-league ballplayer. • You’ve certainly heard the old adage “lightning never strikes twice” but, strictly speaking, it’s not true. Technically, lightning always strikes twice. Each lightning bolt is made up of multiple bolts that travel the same path and strike the same spot in swift succession. *** Thought for the Day: “I’ve noticed that men generally leave married women alone and treat them with respect. It’s too bad for married women. Men are always ready to respect someone who bores them. And if most married women, even the pretty ones, look so dull, it’s because they’re getting too much respect.” -- Marilyn Monroe

Humans Can Sprout New Blood Vessels DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I don’t remember you addressing this subject, so I thought I would write. In 1997, I had a mild heart attack and went on medicines. Six months later I had another mild incident that led me to angioplasty. Ever since, I have been eating well, exercising and taking all my meds. My cardiologist says I have great collaterals. I have sprouted new vessels for my heart. I thought I should have some kind of intervention, but the doctor says no. Can you discuss autogenesis? Am I related to a starfish? -- R.S. ANSWER: You’re the first writer ever to use the word “autogenesis.” If a starfish loses an arm, it grows another -autogenesis. Humans have the same ability when it comes to blood vessels. They can grow new ones, and do so in many instances. Heart-attack victims often can sprout new

ANSWER: One kind of energy drink is a mixture of caffeine and alcohol. In November 2010, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration declared such combinations to be unsafe. I’m sure your son isn’t using this sort of energy drink. Others are. Your boy is likely drinking caffeinated beverages. The amount of caffeine in these drinks ranges from 50 to 505 mg of caffeine per can. A 6-ounce cup of coffee contains 77 to 150 mg of caffeine. Adolescents drinking such large amounts of caffeine can suffer sleep disturbance, shaking hands and possibly a rise in blood pressure. One school district has banned these drinks at all practices and games. I think that’s a good policy. *** DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I had my gallbladder removed

arteries. It’s a long process. It doesn’t happen overnight. And it doesn’t happen to all people. Count yourself lucky.

Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. DONOHUE: You are familiar with energy drinks, aren’t you? Well, my teenage son has gotten in the habit of drinking them far too often. He says they really do increase his energy. I’m worried that they might be dangerous. Will you please provide some information? - B.B.

a year ago. I now have diarrhea, and the doctor says it’s from not having a gallbladder. My doctor prescribed cholestyramine. It causes severe constipation. I now take half the dose, but still I have to be careful about what I eat or drink. Do you have a suggestion? -- E.J. ANSWER: Without a gallbladder to store it, bile drips into the digestive tract constantly. That constant drip irritates the tract in some people, and it causes food to rush through faster than normal. You have found the cure for this -- cholestyramine. The only matter that remains is to determine the correct dose for you. That will come with a little experimenting. *** Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

Don’t Let Foreclosure Stop You from Reclaiming Your American Dream! We all know the obvious consequences of facing foreclosure. Losing your home, facing a deficiency judgment for the difference between the value of your home and the amount of your mortgage, and dealing with damaged credit are a few; but unfortunately there is so much more associated with this process than just your finances. Emotionally, losing a home can be extremely difficult. Often times, people build up a veritable carousel of dreams in their mind composed of all the good things they expect to happen in their home as they grow older. Feeling hopeless as you seemingly watch those hopes and dreams slowly slip away only adds to the emotional loss. Couple the financial and emotional loss with the newly released scientific research that reveals a rise in stress related physical ailments discussed in a recent New York Times article titled “Foreclosures are Killing Us,” and it’s easy to see that foreclosure is not something to be taken lightly. So what do you do? There have been several stories in the news about so called loan modification experts who will either do nothing but take your money in exchange for a slew of ‘too good to be true’ promises, or who will, possibly in good faith but still unwisely so, submit your private financial information to a bank numerous times hoping the bank will respond to a plea for help. The overwhelming failure of the federal government’s modification program

only serves to highlight the fact that an approach which relies solely on corresponding with banks to ask for a modification is unfortunately rarely feasible. Moreover, divulging your financial history is not only irrelevant to any legal issue at hand but it is also typically not in your best interest to do so. The larger concern is the servicers’ repeated requests for financial information under the guise of a loan modification might instead just be a fishing expedition to see if you have any assets which would be recoverable in a deficiency. However, there is hope. Thanks to a handful of highly trained, extremely hard-working and dedicated litigation lawyers, homeowners can fight back and with very fair fee structures, they can do so for far less than you might think. These lawyers are seizing upon the opportunity left behind as a by-product of the banks’ rush to profit both when these mortgages were formed and now as they are falling apart. Through the application of leverage resulting from numerous legitimate legal and ethical defenses, while simultaneously educating the lender how they would be far better off in a workout than they will be post foreclosure; with one of these highly trained professionals, you have a chance to substantially alter your circumstances. It can be a new day in court for homeowners armed with the right representation but take your time before jumping in with just any lawyer. Foreclosure defense and all its inter-related topics are part of a burgeoning new area of law. In addition to exploring all possible legal defenses and counterclaims that can be used in protecting your home, there are also several alternative actions a well-trained attorney can help you with in order to possibly eliminate your liability to the bank and/or prevent them from obtaining a deficiency against you. Be sure you ask for a lawyer’s credentials before signing up, see if they offer a free consultation and during that consultation ask questions to make sure they are well versed in real estate law, bankruptcy, civil procedure and all of the various state and federal consumer protection

Senior Dogs Need Extra Attention DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My golden retriever, “Jessie,” recently turned 9 years old. He’s always been an energetic dog, but he doesn’t seems to like walking as far as he used to, and when chasing birds in the park, he only chases them a few feet before trotting back to me. He also has some digestive issues. Is this normal for an older dog, or should I worry that he’s got some hidden health issue? -- Sam L., Atlanta DEAR SAM: Nine years is definitely “senior dog” territory, and it is normal even for very energetic dogs to begin to noticeably slow down. Their dietary needs and their digestive system also go through gradual change. If Jessie isn’t showing signs of distress or extreme lethargy, he’s probably OK. However, as his owner, you know him best, so if his behavior or digestion concern you, take him to the veterinarian for a checkup. Senior dogs do have unique needs that owners should address. Heidi Ganahl, owner of Camp Bow Wow, recently listed a few considerations senior dog owners should take: --Schedule a veterinary checkup every six months, rather than once a year. A senior pet’s health can change rapidly. --Learn the signs of common ailments in senior dogs, like hip and joint problems, diabetes and eye or ear issues. --Feed your senior dog two smaller meals per day, rather than one. This may help with digestive problems. --Consider adding at least two fresh meals to your dog’s diet per week. The added nutrition can be a big help. --Replace long runs or walks with shorter jaunts followed by a daily training or toy romp.

• “During the holidays, our schedules change so much that it’s hard to keep track. I used to write and re-write our family calendar, but now I just make a grid for the days/weeks, and I use Post-it notes to enter parties, school obligations and anything that is a ‘maybe.’ It’s much easier to move around and add or delete events as needed.” -- A Reader, via email • “Fasten all buttons, snaps, fasteners and zippers on your clothes before washing and drying. It will help them keep their shape. Turn socks inside out, too. It will help prevent them from getting fuzzballs.” -- M.W. from Saskatchewan, Canada • “I pick up extra coffee mugs from second-hand stores, then clean and fill them with hot chocolate packets, small coffees and wrapped tea bags, and a few little chocolate bars. These make nice gifts for friends and service people. I am on a fixed budget, but I find I can be generous this way.” -- T.L. in North Carolina

cargo is tightly packed. You don’t have to buy expensive packing peanuts or bubble wrap -- you can use what’s around. For instance, plastic grocery bags are always in abundance. They can be tucked into any spare space and they barely weigh a thing. Same with newspaper; fill all the available space so that nothing bounces around in transit. Save your bubble wrap for the following tip. • “When mailing cookies, make sure they are packed well. Use an appropriate size container, and give layers some space by separating them with small sheets of bubble wrap. My cookies arrive intact every time.” -J.J. in Florida • “I use a black permanent marker to ‘erase’ scuff marks on my black heels.

Using Linseed Oil to Preserve Tools Q: I’ve heard mixed information about using linseed oil to preserve tools over the winter. Do you place it on the cutting blades of garden tools, or only on the handles? Is there an alternative protectant for garden and work tools? -- John F., Providence, R.I. A: Linseed oil isn’t a good protectant for the metal parts of tools. The reason is that it creates a somewhat gummy, sticky coat that may be hard to clean off come springtime. It often is used to coat and protect wooden handles, but like most preservative products, linseed oil has its benefits and its drawbacks. First, many people don’t know that there are two kinds of linseed oil available: raw and boiled. Raw linseed oil is extracted directly from flax seeds, with no additives of any kind. It’s straight-up linseed oil and nothing else. The raw oil dries extremely slowly, over several weeks, and so it develops a kind of gummy or sticky texture that you may not want to experience when picking up a hammer. Boiled linseed oil is not actually boiled. It has several

ingredients added that quicken drying time and prevent mildew from setting in. If you want to coat wooden tool handles with linseed oil to preserve them, this is the product to use.

specifically formulated for wooden tool handles. It needs to quickly penetrate the wood, not leave a residue on the surface and ideally provide some protection from the sun as well.

The website NaturalHandyman.com has a pretty detailed article available on various uses for raw and boiled linseed oil.

HOME TIP: To prevent glue from sticking to a painted or varnished surface, brush a thin coat of raw linseed oil onto the surface first. Once

A note of caution when using linseed oil: After use, wash any rags that are soaked with the oil in soap and water immediately, or store the rags in a pail of water that is covered. Linseed oil tends to heat up as it dries (through a process called oxidation), and while that isn’t a problem for a tool handle with a light coat of boiled oil on it, it can be a problem if a pile of oil-soaked rags are sitting in a corner of your garage drying out. For the same reason, you’ll also want to airdry the washed-out rags rather than placing them in the clothes dryer. Spontaneous combustion is only fun in science class. Before you get completely turned off toward linseed oil, keep in mind that safety is a priority when working with any type of solvent or chemical, and review the warnings on the back of all the products you use. Which leads into alternatives to linseed oil. You’ll find several kinds of wood preservatives on the shelf at your home-improvement store. Pick a protectant that is

the gluing project is done, the oil can be wiped away. Send your questions or comments to ask@thisisahammer. com, or write This Is a Hammer, c/o King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. (c) 2011 King Features Synd., Inc.

Q: I am loving the second season of my favorite show, “The Walking Dead,” on AMC. I know this might be a little early, but will it return for another season? -- Chad G., via e-mail A: Normally, this would be a bit early for renewal news, but since the show’s return at the end of October, its ratings have been through the roof. Season two ratings have eclipsed the stellar ratings (especially by cable standards) of the first season, so AMC has already renewed it for a third season. “The Walking Dead” depicts the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse following a group of survivors outside Atlanta, starring Andrew Lincoln, Jon Bernthal and Sarah Wayne Callies.

A: Daniela Ruah, who has played Kensi Blye since the show’s premiere in 2009, has a birthmark in her right eye, making it appear almost completely black, with her left eye being hazel. You’ll get to see more of Daniela soon, as she co-stars in the feature film “Red Tails” with Terrence Howard, Cuba Gooding Jr. and Bryan Cranston. She also is rumored to be starring in the upcoming “Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune” with Bruce Campbell. *** UPDATE: Hot on the heels of the news that Lifetime picked up “America’s Most Wanted” after it was canceled by Fox

DOLLARS AND SENSE BY David Uffington

For Real Bargains, Read Food Labels Not only do consumers need to juggle brands and stores to find the best bargains on food, but determining what’s in the food is a minefield as well. In theory, the label and packaging will disclose this information, but they often need some translation. Low sodium: “Low” is subjective. Check the percentage of daily value on the label. It’s not low if one serving can equal more than half your daily allotment of sodium. Light: While generally meant to indicate fewer calories, it’s not true across the board. Compare two cans of soup, the regular and the “light” version of the same kind by the same manufacturer. Is there an appreciable difference in calories? Made with real fruit: How much fruit is actually in the food? If it’s listed after the third item on the ingredients list, you’re not getting much.

***

Organic: “Certified organic” food is regulated and promises to be grown on land that was pesticide free for the previous three years. With meat, the animals would have been fed a special diet without antibiotics or hormones. “Made with organic ingredients” isn’t the same as wholly organic.

Q: I was sad to read in your column that “Spartacus” star Andy Whitfield had passed away. Will the production of the show continue after his death? -- Hallie E., Akron, Ohio

Whole grains: The health benefit depends on how much is actually present. See where it falls in the ingredients lineup. If it’s third or fourth on the list, you’re not getting much. Note: Enriched bleached flour is white flour with vitamins added. If “enriched” bread is dark, look for coloring that’s been added to make it appear to be made of whole grains.

A: In March 2010, Andy was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Production on season two was delayed so he could be treated. Unfortunately, his cancer returned, and he dropped out of the series and was replaced by Liam McIntyre. Andy passed away at age 39 this past September. Season two, with Liam as Spartacus, will return to Starz on Jan. 27, with the network already giving the green light for a third season to begin production in early 2012.

Fiber: Which form of fiber is in the food? You’ll need to check the ingredients list.

*** Q: I have noticed the actress who plays Kensi on “NCIS:

Serving size: Be realistic. If a serving size is a half cup of a dessert, are you going to stop at that half cup? On the other hand, if the food is a main dish, will you family be satisfied with half-cup servings? comes the news of its premiere date. The 20-episode 25th season of the crime-fighting reality show will premiere on Dec. 2 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. The show’s passionate host, John Walsh, said of the return: “I am excited to be back in the saddle and working with Lifetime. We are the court of last resort, and with the show getting back to our weekly airing, we’ll have the capability of getting more fugitives off the streets and behind bars where they belong. We hope our observant fans continue the mission with us, on our new night -- Friday -- and keep our capture number climbing while helping those crime victims who need us.” Write to Cindy at King Features Weekly Service, P.O.

ALL THE ANSWERS!!!!

Know what you’re spending your money on so you can get the most nutrition for your dollar. If you’re not in the habit of reading labels, start by checking at least five things on every label before the food goes into your cart. Choose what those five things will be -- perhaps sodium, protein, sugars, fats and the first three ingredients. It’s a start.

Joe Frazier Fights No More There really is no way to overstate this, for it is not a claim, it is a fact: Joseph William “Smokin’ Joe” Frazier is one of the greatest boxers to ever walk the Earth. You hear that all the time, typically from promoters. I’m not even going to get into the utterly ridiculous claims I’ve heard in order to promote a fight or two. But boxers like Frazier? They don’t need the hype. What they need is just enough space to get to the ring so they can wreak absolute carnage. For Frazier was more than just a boxer -- he was a fighter. After his untimely death on Nov. 7, a victim of liver cancer, the country heard the usual obituary for the man. How he was Muhammad Ali’s foil, how he was bitter but

TIDBITS - Please Support Our Advertisers ultimately respected by both fans and foes as one of the all-time great boxers. ®

But Frazier was a fighter. Joe was born on a dirt farm in Beaufort, S.C. He was told he would be the next Joe Louis, due in part to his hulking size as a kid. He spent nights, without any real direction, banging away at a homemade heavy bag made of burlap filled with corncobs and Spanish moss. If that sack still survives, it belongs in a museum. After realizing he was going nowhere in Beaufort, Frazier set off on his own for New York City to find “somewhere.” He was 15 years old. You want to see some tough boxing? Take a look at the Golden Gloves in New York. In 1962, 1963 and 1964, the banners at Madison Square Garden list Joe Frazier as their champion. Frazier lost the Olympic qualifying bout to Buster Mathis in 1964, but he travelled with the team in case Mathis became injured before the games. Mathis did suffer an injury -- fighting a furious Frazier in an exhibition match at the end of the team’s training camp.

November 18, 2011 • 13 Frazier went on to knock out everyone along the way to the Gold medal round, breaking his hand in the process. He held nothing back. He outpointed his opponent for the gold, winning the nation’s only gold medal in boxing that year. The rest is well-known to the boxing fan. He was never able to escape the shadow of Ali, the Olympic champ four years previous. And even though Ali’s relentless, most would say tasteless, mocking of Frazier continues to play a role in Frazier’s own legacy (even retrospectives of Frazier’s life on the evening news invariably featured Ali punching a gorilla doll), Frazier fights on. For Frazier left his opponents in Beaufort lying in the dirt the day he set off for New York. He fought his way to the gold against incredible odds. He floored Ali. And no matter what he thought about his legacy, ultimately those who know anything about the sweet science know that Joe Frazier reached those higher grounds, the upper pantheons of the sport where he will forever be counted among the immortals. Joe Frazier fought for that legacy during his 67 years of life. Here’s hoping the man has finally found peace. Mark Vasto is a veteran sportswriter who lives in Kansas City.

who entertains legions of “Office” fans each week with her spot-on delivery of droll one-liners. When she joined the show, Kaling was 24, new to Los Angeles and the only woman on a writing staff of eight. Now, at 32, she continues to write for the show and also has directed two episodes. Kaling typically works 16-hour days, yet doesn’t complain. She has achieved the level of Hollywood fame she wants, which, to her, is being so famous that she can never get convicted of murder in a court of law.

“Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?” by Mindy Kaling (Crown Archetype, $25) Reviewed by Rose M. Croke

Emmy-nominated writer, actress and producer Mindy Kaling, who plays self-absorbed customer-service rep Kelly Kapoor on the hit TV show “The Office,” can now add author to her already impressive resume. In her comedy memoir, “Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns),” Kaling chronicles her childhood growing up with her parents (both Indian immigrants) and older brother in Cambridge, Mass., and shares her funny observations on topics such as friendship, love, fame, writing and office work -- both real and staged. A self-proclaimed shopaholic -- she has her credit-card number memorized -- Kaling finds it relatively easy to channel the celebrity- and fashion-obsessed office gossip

Celebrity does have its consequences. The title of her book comes from a time when Kaling was working so hard that she sensed that friends had stopped inviting her to dinners, birthday parties and other social engagements because she had declined them so many times. In an age where many starlets are famous for being infamous, Kaling’s collection of essays introduces readers to a good girl who made good. Her voice, which she admits she never tires of hearing, is refreshing and unapologetic. She takes great pride in being respectful, intelligent, opinionated and hardworking. Funny, inspiring content aside, the childhood photo of a bespectacled Kaling holding a scruffy-looking hand puppet on the back cover of the book is endearingly priceless.
