• We’ve all heard Murphy’s Law, something along the lines of, “If something can go wrong, it will, and usually at the worst time.â€? There was a real Murphy – Edward A. Murphy, a U.S. Air Force engineer who was working on a rocket-sled experiment in the late 1940s. The project involved mounting 16 accelerator instruments to a participant’s body. There were two ways the 16 sensors could be glued to the mount, and all 16 were installed backwards. Murphy was heard to say, “If there are two or more ways to do something, and one of those ways can result in a catastrophe, then someone will do it.â€? • One of the most often-misquoted lines in movie history is “Play it again, Samâ€? from the 1942 ďŹ lm “Casablanca.â€? Most folks believe that leading man Humphrey Bogart uttered the famous phrase. The pianist Sam is being asked to play the song “As Time Goes By.â€? Ingrid Bergman’s character Ilsa Lund says, “Play it once, Sam. For old times’ sake.â€? When Sam objects, she repeats, “Play it, Sam.â€? Later in the movie, Bogart says, “Play it!â€? No one ever says, “Play it again, Sam.â€?

MISQUOTES (continued):

The Friends of Voltaire. Voltaire actually did say, “Think for yourselves and let others enjoy the privilege to do so, too” in his 1763 “Essay on Tolerance.” It’s thought that he also wrote in a letter to a colleague: “I detest what you write, but I would give my life to make it possible for you to continue to write.” • We all know that “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned,” but not everyone realizes that the correct quotation is “Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned,” penned by English poet William Congreve in his 1697 work, “The Mourning Bride.” • The sultry 1930s diva Mae West is often quoted as saying, “Come up and see me sometime.” In the 1933 movie “She Done Him Wrong,” West, in her role as Lady Lou, utters, “Why don’t you come up sometime and see me? • Many popular sayings are attributed to the Bible that aren’t really in there. As children, many of us were admonished by our parents with “Cleanliness is next to godliness,” perhaps an attempt to get us to wash behind our ears! This adage first appeared in a printed sermon by John Wesley in 1769, in which the minister wrote, “Slovenliness is no part of religion. Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness.” Perhaps you think that the old saying, “God helps those who help themselves” is another Biblical truth. In fact, it was Aesop of “Aesop’s Fables” fame who first penned, “the gods help them that help themselves.” In Benjamin Franklin’s 1736 edition of “Poor Richard’s Almanac,” a similar says goes, “One who comes to be purified is helped.” Have you heard folks say, “no rest for the wicked”? The accurate wording is found in Isaiah 57:21, “There is no peace, says my God, to

the wicked.” And lots of us say, “Money is the root of all evil,” when in fact, the correct wording in I Timothy 6:10 is “the love of money is the root of all evil…” • In the 1995 film “Apollo 13,” Tom Hanks in the role of Commander Jim Lovell says, “Houston, we have a problem.” During the 1970 mission, Apollo 13 astronaut Jack Swigert was the first to say a similar phrase, “Okay, Houston, we’ve had a problem here.” NASA in Houston replied, “This is Houston. Say again please,” to which Lovell replied, “Houston, we’ve had a problem. We’ve had a main B bus undervolt.” • The quote, “Well-behaved women seldom make history” has often been attributed to actress Marilyn Monroe. The credit for the line really goes to Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, a Harvard professor and Pulitzer Prize winner who wrote it in a 1976 journal article. • Diehard Trekkies will know that Captain James T. Kirk never said, “Beam me up, Scotty!” in any of the 80 episodes of the original “Star Trek” series, which aired from 1966 to 1969. The closest Captain Kirk came to that phrase was in the 1968 episode “Gamesters of Triskelion,” when he exclaimed, “Beam us up, Mr. Scott!” The animated “Star Trek” series, which ran for two seasons in 1973 – 1974, did have the line, “Beam us up, Scotty!” and the 1986 movie “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home included, “Scotty, beam me up.” The original series’ Mr. Scott was played by actor James Doohan, who entitled his 1996 biography Beam Me Up, Scotty! • The well-known phrase “A rose by any other name smells just as sweet” has its origins in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet.” But the actual quote reads, “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other word would smell as sweet.” • Speaking of Shakespeare, when we see images of witches stirring a cauldron, the phrase “Bubble, bubble, toil

and trouble” comes to mind. The correct phrase, from Act 4, Scene 1 of “Macbeth,” is actually “Double, double, toil and trouble.” Fans of the rock group Led Zeppelin will recognize the words in the first verse of “Stairway to Heaven”, “There’s a lady who’s sure, all that glitters is gold.” The chorus in the Smash Mouth song “All Star” also includes the phrase “All that glitters is gold.” In actuality, this is another Shakespeare misquote that reads correctly, “All that glisters is not gold,” spoken by the Prince of Morocco in “The Merchant of Venice.”

UNUSUAL ANIMALS:

ALLIGATORS See ya later, Alligator! Take a look at some of these interesting facts about this member of the order Crocodylia. • Early Spanish explorers and settlers in Florida gave the alligator its name. This scaly reptile takes its name from the Spanish word largarto, meaning “the lizard.” • Alligators are native only to the United States and China. In the U.S., Louisiana has the most alligators, but large populations also live in Florida, Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, North and South Carolina, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Texas. Although an American alligator can grow up to 20 feet (6.1 m) long and weigh up to half a ton (454 kg), on average, males grow to about 11 feet (3.4 m) and females to about 8 feet (2.6 m). The Chinese alligator is much smaller, with males averaging a length of 5 feet (1.5 m) and females at about 4.5 feet (1.4 m). The tail accounts for about half of an alligator’s length. • An American alligator has a life expectancy in the wild of nearly 50 years. • The menacing-looking mouth of an American alligator holds between 74 and 80 teeth at a time, but it might go through 2,000 to 3,000 teeth over its lifetime. • Although they seem to have a reputation for attacking humans, alligators are actually quite solitary and very rarely do they go after humans, usually only when provoked or when protecting their young. Their diet consists of fish, turtles, snakes, birds, and small mammals. Occasionally they eat other alligators.

• An alligator’s jaws can clamp shut with enough force to break a person’s arm. But the muscles that open its mouth are very weak, so much so that a man can hold a full-grown alligator’s mouth closed with one hand. And although they move very quickly through water, alligators are slow-moving on land. • A female alligator will lay up to 50 eggs at a time, keeping them warm in a nest of rotting vegetation. The temperature of that nest will determine the gender of her offspring. Oddly enough, if the eggs are incubated over 93 degrees F (33.8 C), the embryos develop into males. Females are the result of temperatures below 86 degrees F (30 C), and between 86 and 93 degrees F, an embryo can develop into either gender. About 8 out of 10 baby alligators will be eaten by bobcats, snakes, otters, large fish, raccoons, and other alligators. • One of the main differences between alligators and crocodiles is their environment. Alligators dwell in fresh water, such as ponds, rivers, wetlands, lakes, and swamps, while crocodiles make their home in salt water. An alligator’s nostrils point upward, so they can breathe while the rest of the body is submerged in water. • Although there are about five million American alligators in the southeastern United States, they were once nearly extinct. Years of hunters seeking the valuable hides landed alligators on the endangered species list. When the U.S. fish & wildlife Service prohibited the trade of hides, alligators made such a comeback that they were removed from the list in 1987.

HOLLYWOOD -- Have moviegoers tastes changed that much? The 2016 film release schedule reveals 15 documentaries and 10 superhero movies. The documentaries range from O.J Simpson, Frank Zappa, Norman Lear and Anthony Weiner to environment and climate change, stem-cell research, animal rights and cyber warfare. On the superhero side, we'll be barraged with "Captain America", "X-Men," "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," "Independence Day," "Tarzan," "Suicide Squad," "Doctor Strange," "Rogue One" and "Assassin's Creed." Along those lines, Chris Hemsworth has had a rocky road as a headliner when his films weren't superhero-oriented. In 2012, he had four films: "Cabin in the Woods," which made $36.5 million above cost; "Avengers," which made $1.5 billion; "Snow White and the Huntsman," which grossed $133 million and "Red Dawn," which lost $17 million. In 2013, he had "Rush," which made a $59 million profit, and "Thor: The Dark World," which brought in $475 million. In 2015, "Blackhat" lost $50 million, "Avengers: Age of Ultron" made $1.5 billion, while "In the Heart of the Sea" tanked, losing $5 million. His latest, "The Huntsman: Winter's War," is off to a bad start, earning only $110 million of its $115 million cost. Chris has won awards for his work: a 2012 Teen Choice Award (summer movie star -- male) and a 2013 People's Choice Award (favorite action-movie star) for "The Avengers" and "Snow White and the Huntsman," and a 2013 MTV award (for best fight, in "The Avengers"). The public has spoken! They want him super-sized! Superhero films are usually in IMAX and 3D, and it would appear that moviegoers only to go to theaters to see what they can't get on their electronic devices. *** "Castle" is going for a 10-episode ninth season, but without its female star, Stana Katic.

offered another contract, but since both she and Nathan Fillion are listed as producers, shouldn't they have had a united front? The show monkeyed around with their relationship (to help ratings?), but it didn't work. So expect her be killed off. And what's with Fillion and those AAG reverse-mortgage commercials? He's 45 years old trying to appeal to the over-60 crowd. Did they think graying his hair would accomplish that? Really! Do we really need another production of "Hairspray," this time live on NBC with Harvey Fierstein (in drag, as Edna Turnblad), Martin Short (Wilbur), Jennifer Hudson (Motor Mouth Maybelle) and Derek Hough (Corny Collins). I don't know, John Travolta, Christopher Walken, Queen Latifah and James Marsden are still fresh in my mind. Too much hairspray is bad for the ozone! (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

*** Q: I was enthralled by the Fox series "Wayward Pines" last year. Will that be back? -Louie F., via email

Q: I am a huge fan of "Devious Maids," so I was thrilled to read that they would be back with a new season. Can you give me any tidbits of what we can expect? My friends and I are on tenterhooks! -- Jackie S., Annapolis, Maryland A: I do have a few little spoilers to share, but not too spoilery, I promise. I spoke with the always delightful and insightful Rebecca Wisocky (who plays Evelyn Powell) about the upcoming 10-episode fourth season of "Devious Maids," which premieres June 6 on Lifetime, and she and the rest of the cast are excited for fans to see what they have in store. Regarding the explosive season finale, she told me: "The Powell Mansion literally ends -- it exploded. I think it's a great metaphor for what happens to Evelyn. The world she is used to is gone; you'll watch her go on a surprising and new journey this season. Adrian went back into the house to get a prized family portrait of Adrian, Evelyn and Barrett. Whether he's dead or alive, Adrian Powell looms large in season four. You'll find out in the beginning of the season; it's worth tuning in for, for sure." Rebecca also told me: "You will definitely see a new side of Evelyn. There will be some struggles of identity, and she will go on a journey this year that you wouldn't have expected. The very things that define her will be taken away. She'll develop a friendship with Marisol. You'll see a lot more of that this year; I think people really enjoy Evelyn and Marisol together. And there will be a new man for Evelyn before the end of the season.

A: Season two of Fox's trippy sci-fi mystery Rebecca Wisocky series returns May 25 with a new set of characters coming to town, along with a few familiar faces. Rebecca Wisocky The show's new protagonist, Dr. Theo Yedlin (Jason Patric), has to figure out what is really going on in Wayward Pines, which is now under the control of Jason Higgins (played by Tom Stevens). Other co-stars include Djimon Hounsou as CJ Mitchum, Hope Davis returning as Megan Fisher, Nimrat Kaur as Rebecca Yedlin, Kacey Rohl as Kerry Campbell and Josh Helman as Xander. *** Q: I read that after "Downton Abbey," the actress who played Mary was going to be in a new TV series. Can you tell me when, where and what? -- Marty M., Lakeland, Florida A: Michelle Dockery and Juan Diego Botto star in the new TNT drama "Good Behavior." No premiere date has been released, but it was not announced in TNT's summer lineup, so I'd look for it come fall. The series is based on the novellas by Blake Crouch about con artist Letty Dobesh (played by Michelle).

able to afford the high cost of medical insurance, as it seems to go up each year as we get older.

Working Out -- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has put a 126-page book online called "Growing Stronger" for seniors who want to start strength training. Look for it at www.cdc.gov.

Bottom line: This topic isn't going away. It's one to keep an eye on.

Should Medicare Age be Raised to 67?

Grow Stronger, Live Longer Here's yet another reason to try to stay fit: Seniors with more muscle mass have a lower risk of death. That's according to researchers who spent eight years surveying 6,400 patients with cardiovascular disease. They divided the patients into four groups: high muscle/high fat, high muscle/low fat, low muscle/high fat and low muscle/low fat. The winners (those with improved survival odds) were those with the high muscle/ low fat combination. The level of fat doesn't matter as much as the muscle mass to reduce risk of death. The study jibes with one from two years ago that determined that BMI levels aren't as important as body composition -- in other words, muscle mass. How do seniors gain muscle mass? It's not easy, as we tend to start losing muscle at about age 40. The first step to build muscle is to consult your doctor before you change your diet or start any new kind of exercise. Ask if the following changes are correct for you: Protein -- While it helps build muscle, seniors shouldn't get too much because it can stress the kidneys. This is where your doctor can help calculate how much you should get in a day.

There's a movement afoot that, if it gains traction and becomes law, could affect many of us. Researchers have once again studied the ramifications of increasing the age of Medicare eligibility to 67. The purpose, of course, would be to save the government money. Here are a few of the things the study discovered from the records of more than 200,000 seniors: * Overall medical spending dropped by a third when seniors switched to Medicare because the government pays providers less than private insurers. * While the government will save money, actual health-care spending will go up. A previous 2011 study concluded that while the government would save $5.7 billion (in 2014), seniors age 65 and 66 would have increased costs out of pocket of $4.5 billion. The current study agrees. * A Congressional Budget Office looked at the potential government savings in 2013, and concluded that the government could save $19 billion between 2016 and 2023. * Seniors generally would stay with the same health-care providers, who will get less money for the same services, probably 30 percent less. Those providers will continue to see existing patients because they'll be dealing with volume in the number of patients. So what does this mean to us?

Carbs -- We need to burn these for energy. Without carbohydrates you'll use protein for energy, instead of using your protein to build muscles.

Seniors would need to spend two more years on private insurance. To keep employer-provided insurance, we'd need to stay employed for two more years.

Water -- You need the right amount to help absorb the nutrients in your food. Again, your doctor can calculate it for

If we were planning to retire and have Social Security as all (or at least part) of our income, we're not likely to be

MIGRAINES In observance of National Migraine and Headache Awareness Month coming up in June, Tidbits shares some information on this serious health issue. • It’s estimated that about 12% of the U.S. population, approximately 36 million Americans, experience migraine headaches. It’s considered one of the Top 20 most disabling medical illnesses in the world. • Research indicates that migraines might be caused in part by changes in the level of serotonin. When serotonin levels fall, blood vessels dilate and the swelling brings on the migraine. • Who gets migraines? The condition is three times more common in women, with 30% of women suffering over a lifetime. It’s most common in the ages from the 20s through the 50s. Migraines seem to occur most between the ages of 35 and 45. Yet, they can also affect children and the elderly. Migraines affect someone in one of every four American households. Most experience a few attacks

* It was 19th-century Dutch post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh -- one of the most popular artists of all time -- who made the following sage observation: "Conscience is a man's compass, and though the needle sometimes deviates, though one often perceives irregularities when directing one's course by it, one must still try to follow its direction." * Those who study such things say that penguins are so well insulated that, in general, they have a harder time staying cool than they do staying warm.

• Several things can trigger a migraine, even a change in the weather! A variance in barometric pressure, humidity, or temperature can bring it on. One study indicates that winds in excess of 23 mph (37 km/hr) increase the risk of migraines.

• About 20% of those who get migraines experience an “aura” of visual symptoms shortly before the migraine hits. A person might see flashing lights, wavy lines, or dots, and/or experience tunnel vision or blind spots, and might even include hallucinations.

per month, but 3% of the population experiences chronic migraines, with headaches at least 15 days of each month for at least six months. Eighty percent of those who get migraines have a family history of the malady. If one parent has migraines, a child has a 50% chance of the condition, and a 75% chance if both parents get them.

Many report that eating avocadoes, lentils, and canned meats increases the likelihood of a headache. • Drinking alcohol, not getting enough sleep, stress, hunger, dehydration, and hormonal changes can also bring on a migraine, and even a sudden light glare or certain fragrances. Because the causes are different for each person, physicians suggest keeping a journal as a way to track the triggers. • In ancient times, when migraines were unexplainable, a practice called trepanation was used as early as 7,000 B.C., which involved drilling holes into the skull. In their eyes, it was a way to allow evil spirits to escape. Unbelievably, trepanation was still being practiced up to the 17th century.

• Certain foods seem to bring on a migraine in some individuals, especially foods containing nitrates (found in hot dogs and lunch meats). The substance tyramine found in aged cheese, smoked fish, and soy products is another culprit, as well as the flavor enhancer MSG.

• Although walking and climbing stairs can worsen the pain, regular workouts seem to help ward off migraines in the first place. Those who exercise for 40 minutes, three times per week often experience less headaches. Others claim that taking Vitamin E and ginko biloba helps prevent migraines. Still others are treated with anti-depressants that may reduce the frequency by regulating the brain’s chemical levels.

* You've probably never wondered how to categorize the dill pickle, but some people have. Is it a fruit? Hard to say. The cucumber is, technically, a fruit -- part of the gourd family -- so it would seem that a pickle is, too.

*** Thought for the Day: "Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it." -- Mark Twain

* You've almost certainly heard of the Rock of Gibraltar -- as a metaphor for strength and solidity, if for no other reason. This famed monolith of limestone on the European side of the Strait of Gibraltar, that narrow connection between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, makes up only half of the Pillars of Hercules. On the African side of the strait is Jabal Musa, and this southern half of the Pillars is twice as tall as its more famous partner to the north.

* Many people don't realize that the popular name Renee means "reborn." * The state of Delaware was named for Delaware Bay, which in turn was named for the first English governor of the colony of Virginia. His name was Thomas West, but his title was Baron De la Warr. Ultimately, his title is derived from the Old French term "de la werre," which means "of the war."

GARLIC: NATURE'S PUNGENT SECRET WEAPON Of all of the ingredients in my kitchen, garlic is the one I use in almost every savory dish. Sometimes I want the sharp avor of minced, raw garlic combined with onion and sauteed until golden. For lighter dishes, like a cold salad, vegetables and a dressing, I use garlic that has been infused in olive oil, which tones it down without losing its avor.

* Regular garlic consumption is claimed to reduce cholesterol and lower blood pressure.

Roasted garlic is the perfect topping for a crusty piece of bread or to mix into mashed potatoes or dips.

* Fresh or powdered garlic is known to be a topical antibiotic, antibacterial and antifungal.

My new favorite garlic preparation is minced and deepfried until it's golden, a product I found in a Filipino grocery store. It makes a avorful and crunchy topping for everything from sandwiches to casseroles.

No matter how you mince it, garlic adds a wonderful avor to all kinds of savory dishes and is a great way to protect your health!

* Eating a small amount of garlic daily is often recommended to help prevent cardiovascular problems.

Get a delicious dose of garlic to keep the doctor away! Garlic is the perfect dinner guest, bringing avor and personality to the party without outshining the host. Garlic was introduced into the United States in the 1700s and is believed to have originated in central Asia. It has been a food source for over 7,000 years, which makes it one of the oldest vegetables still in use. While we mainly use garlic as a vegetable, it has historically been used for medicinal purposes. Here are some of the ways garlic is used to ďŹ ght common medical ailments:

CONSUMER PROTECTION SERVICES AT CIVIL JUSTICE ADVOCATES, PL

WWW.CJAPL.com DID YOUR MORTGAGE PAYMENTS BECOME UNMANAGEABLE? DOES YOUR DEBT SEEM OVERWHELMING AND COMPLEX?

By Joann Hennessey, Esq. Civil Justice Advocates, P.L.

Relax! You have options that may either stop the foreclosure, reduce the amount that you owe or waive portions of your debt.

Receiving a call from a debt collector can be an emotional and stressful experience. Debt collectors that treat you with disrespect violate the law. Debt collectors who are dishonest violate the law. Stop being a victim! Sue the Debt Collection Agency for money damages under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

Our Attorneys can guide you through the litigation process and take advantage of these alternative resolutions.

FREE CONSULTATION 305-639-5195

It can be illegal for Debt collectors to call you repeatedly on your telephone. Debt collectors can call once to determine your proper contact information, only once. Their contacting your family, friends, co-workers, neighbors or employer about money you owe may violate the law. Debt collectors are not allowed to use abusive and obscene language or racial/ethnic slurs in an attempt to shame you into paying your debt, doing so is a violation of the law.

At Civil Justice Advocates our primary focus is YOU! t Foreclosure Defense t Debt Settlement t Bankruptcy t Short Sales t Asset Protection t Loan Modifications t Real Estate t Transactions & Contracts t Landlord/Tenant t Civil Litigation t Immigration t Family: Surrogacy, Adoptions & Divorces t FDCPA & TCPA: Defend against abusive collection practices & robocallst Wills, Trusts & Probate

The Fair Debt Collection Act protects you from these violations. These are just a few illegal collection practices that could lead to money damages of $1000 or more as well as the payment of all your attorney fees and costs.

STOP BEING A VICTIM – SUE THE DEBT COLLECTORS Every person is entitled to be treated with respect, told the truth, and be free of undue harassment and other unethical practices by debt collectors. For example, Debt Collectors may not contact you at unreasonable times or places; such as, before 8 a.m. or after 9 p.m., unless you agree. The use of auto-dialers or robo-calls is strictly prohibited when calling your cell phone. Debt Collectors who are calling you to try to coerce you into paying your deceased relatives’ debts are acting outside the bounds of the law – sue them. Lying about possible consequences; such as, threatening to throw you out of your house, or send you to jail or otherwise threatening you with other dire consequences are legally impermissible. A course of action you could take is to sue the debt collector and possibly collect money damages. Infractions of the Fair Debt Collection Act (FDCPA) can lead to an award of money damages and the payments of your attorney fees and costs as a result of a successful prosecution of the case in federal court. In other words, it cost you NOTHING to sue debt collectors. Debts that fall under the FDCPA include consumer debts where the transaction was for personal, family or household purposes – not commercial debt. The following are covered by the FDCPA:

President Herbert Hoover ordered the army to forcibly evict them after the Senate voted down a bill to pay the bonus. * On May 28, 1961, The London Observer publishes lawyer Peter Benenson's article "The Forgotten Prisoners" on its front page, launching the Appeal for Amnesty 1961. The movement would become the human-rights organization Amnesty International. * On May 27, 1971, during the Vietnam War, Sweden reveals that it has been providing assistance to the Viet Cong, including some $550,000 worth of medical supplies.

But imagine, if you will, driving to your local market one day and running over an improvised explosive device (IED) that kills all your passengers in the fiery aftermath, leaves you unconscious, flesh burning away. You awaken three months later from a coma to learn that 80 percent of your body suffered third-degree burns, lungs injured from inhaling toxic smoke. You have lost fingers from both hands and the nerves in your right foot have been sheared away. After enduring more than 120 surgeries and skin grafts, would your first inclination be to return to the market?

UNCONQUERED AND UNDEFEATED If you ever have the opportunity to visit a newspaper office, you will immediately notice the decorations, particularly in the meeting rooms and lobbies of the newspapers who have been around awhile (and have managed to stick around). If they own their own presses, you will see thin sheets of tin called "plates" hanging on the walls. In other cases, you will find reprints of front pages that span the decades, featuring prominent moments in time. In almost every case, you are certain to find front pages, declaring in large, bold type any number (or all) of the following: the sinking of the Lusitania, the sinking of the Titanic, the assassination of JFK, the resignation of Nixon and the Challenger disaster. On occasion, you may come across a "V-J Day" or the moon landing, but those would be rare finds. Just about the only place you will find moments of archival triumph enshrined instead of tragedy is at the sports desk. There, you will find pictures of local athletes and teams with their hands held high in victory, trophies aloft, flags raised, ticker tape and confetti streaming down.

Well, that's precisely what Air Force Master Sgt. Israel Del Toro Jr. did ... only in his case, he went back to the frontline of a war. On Sunday, May 8, he stood atop a podium in Orlando, Florida, and delivered the keynote speech for the Invictus Games not only as a hero, but as an athlete. The Invictus Games, a Paralympic-styled competition, is the brainchild of Prince Harry, who founded the games with a grant from his foundation in 2014. And while the event certainly draws its share of celebrity involvement and the competition is fierce, it isn't the sort of event that has any losers in the traditional sense. And, unfortunately, it isn't the kind of event that many newsrooms would choose to enshrine on their library walls. But men like Master Sgt. Del Toro, who will compete in cycling and powerlifting, embodies the word "invictus," Latin for "unconquered," perhaps as well or better than any other athlete ever, and the words he shared transcend competition and speak more to the human heart. "I will never let the guys who set that bomb get the satisfaction that they ruined my life," Del Toro declared. Now that's something you can put on any wall. Remember to never forget our soldiers. Mark Vasto is a veteran sportswriter who lives in New Jersey. (c) 2016 King Features Synd., Inc.

ANSWER: Large volumes of stomach acid coming into the mouth is an accepted indication for surgical treatment of reflux disease. Sometimes, the acid is associated with excess saliva and is called "water brash." Prior to considering surgery, it is worthwhile to make sure the medication treatment is as good as it can be. Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole should be taken 30 minutes before eating. Weight loss is helpful if overweight. Raising the head of the bed 6 to 8 inches (by inserting blocks under the legs of the head of the bed or using a plastic wedge under the mattress) and avoiding dietary triggers (coffee, chocolate, carbonated drinks, high-fat foods) should be tried. Baclofen, a powerful muscle relaxant with many possible side effects, may be the "last resort" medicine you are taking.

ACID REFLUX SURGERY HAS SIDE EFFECTS DEAR DR. ROACH: I am so tired of gastric juices coming up and spraying my mouth. I am currently on a "last resort" medicine. My doctor wants to try it for three weeks. If it doesn't work, he's going to perform a Nissen fundoplication. From what I've read, there would be nothing more coming up. Could you explain this procedure? What will happen with swallowed air, and what will happen if I get sick to my stomach and (shudder) need to vomit? -- S.S.

Weight Loss Slowed Metabolism in “Biggest Loser” Contestants Significant weight loss slows the body’s metabolism, creating an obstacle for weight management, according to a study published online in Obesity. Researchers measured the amount of calories burned while resting and body composition for 14 weight-loss-show contestants at baseline, following the weight-loss competition, and at a six-year follow-up. Those contestants who regained the most weight after the competition and those who successfully kept the weight off experienced slower metabolisms than before the competition. Participants also experienced a drop in several hormones that help regulate hunger. Together, these biological changes and other factors made it difficult for participants to maintain healthful weights. Based on these findings, researchers urge health care professionals to consider the body’s response to weight loss in current obesity treatments. An earlier study, using a low-fat vegan diet, showed a 16 percent increase in after-meal metabolism (the thermic effect of food) after participants had followed the vegan diet for 14 weeks.

When all else fails, surgery may relieve symptoms. A Nissen fundoplication is when the upper part of the stomach, the fundus, is plicated (wrapped) around the esophagus and stitched in place. This can be done via endoscopy or as an open procedure. It is effective at reducing symptoms in 85 percent to 90 percent of patients. Most people are unable to vomit and have less or no ability to belch, leading to bloating, increased intestinal gas and flatulence. Discomfort during eating is common. There are modifications of the surgical procedure designed to reduce side effects and complications while maintaining effectiveness, but a description of what these all are technically is in your surgeon's domain.

ROACH: I have been riding my bike outdoors, same saddle, 130 miles a month for over three years. Out of the blue my left sit bone, or the tissue around it, is so sore. I can't quit riding -- HELP! -- A.D.C. ANSWER: A good rule of thumb for an athletic injury or sudden soreness is that resting it for a period of time usually is a good idea. Get off the bike for a while and try some different types of exercising: walk, run, swim or lift weights, but give your soft tissues a chance to recover. You may simply have overdone it. If things don't get better, go ahead and make an appointment to get checked out. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible.

Increased Weight Associated with Higher Risk for Death

Vegan Diets Do Least Environmental Damage A vegan diet leaves the smallest environmental footprint, according to an article published in the Journal of Hunger & Environmental Nutrition. Researchers assigned 63 participants from the New Dietary Interventions to Enhance the Treatments for weight loss (New DIETs) study to a vegan, vegetarian, pesco-vegetarian, semi-vegetarian, or omnivorous diet and monitored changes in their environmental impact. Those in the vegan group decreased their environmental footprint the most when compared to the other diets. A vegetarian diet provides cost savings and uses significantly fewer resources for

As body weight increases so does the risk of dying, according to a review published in The BMJ. Researchers looked at 30,233,329 participants and found that for every 5-point increase in body mass index (BMI), there was an 18 percent increase for dying among never smokers. The risk among healthy never smokers was even higher. Those who had BMIs in a healthy range (20-24 kg/m2) had the least risk for dying after at least a 20-year follow-up.

ly with dogs, owners have relationships akin to their own child, and the results of well-intentioned advice tend to be ineffectual. Owners may even snap back at you. However, a badly behaved dog in a public area can have a lot of repercussions. An unruly dog may be attacked by another dog, or a human may be injured by a dog bite -- events like that just add fuel to arguments against dog parks or dogs in public areas.

SOME DOG OWNERS NEED TRAINING, TOO

www.TidbitsFlorida.com • May 20, 2016 • 13

Please Support Our Advertisers

To get a dog to behave on command, two key factors can make a difference in training: A calm, confident voice when giving commands, and consequences. If a dog won't follow a command, corrective action must be given as soon as possible -- putting it back on the leash, leaving the dog park, whatever.

DEAR PAW'S CORNER: When I'm out at the dog park, I see so many people who are ignored by their dogs. No matter how much they scream or shout, their pets just do whatever they want. I've tried to tell them that yelling only goes so far, but they don't listen. What else can I do? -- Clarisse G., Cartersville, Georgia

Not surprisingly, dog owners who aren't controlling their dogs respond to the same factors. If a dog is disrupting the other pets' enjoyment of the park, tell its owner -- with confidence! -- that their dog has to act within the park's rules, or leave. If they don't respond, then bring the consequences: report the owner and dog to the city, or to the group -- if the dog park has an organized group of other owners.

DEAR CLARISSE: One of the hardest subjects to broach with other owners is how to handle their pets. Particular-

BIRDS WILL FLOCK TO HOMEMADE FEEDER

Store Hours Mon-Sat, 8AM-6PM

19030 West Dixie Hwy, Miami Tel:

Here's the stuff you need:

--Wire or twine for hanging --Food items for a kebab, such as chunks of orange, apple, watermelon, dried bread, bagels, etc. --Bird seed (optional)

Here's the fun: Depending on the style of the carton, close or glue the top shut. Cut out a 4-1/2-inch-high and 2-1/2-inch-wide opening on all four sides of the carton about an inch up from the base. For a bird perch, poke a small hole below a side opening. Poke a matching hole into the opposite side of the carton, then insert one of the dowels through both small holes. Make a hole and poke the other skewer through the top side edge of the feeder for the shish kebab. (If using a dowel, sharpen one end with a pencil sharpener.) For the time being, rest that end inside the feeder until you are ready to thread food on it.

What child isn't thrilled to look out a window and see a bird or two peck-peck-pecking away at treats that were placed just for them in a feeder your family has created?

--One clean, half-gallon cardboard juice or milk carton

Edwin Rivero

To hang the feeder, poke a hole in the top middle of the carton and loop a piece of wire or twine through the hole. It's time to decorate. Using a low-temperature glue gun or household glue and brush, start applying twigs, pieces of bark, dried pods, leaves, etc., wherever your imagination says they belong. You might add trinkets or a silk flower if the space seems right. For the shish kebab, reach through a side opening of the feeder and thread the fruit and bread chunks on the skewer, then poke the end at an angle in an inside corner of the carton. Pour some birdseed onto the base of the feeder, if you wish. Hang from a tree or bird feeder stand. As birds come to your feeder, identify them, take pictures and talk about your sightings. *** Donna Erickson's award-winning series "Donna's Day" is airing on public television nationwide.
