TIDBITS® RIDES ROLLER COASTERS
by Janet Spencer • Various versions of the roller coaster have been thrilling humans for centuries. The Russians built large ice slides and sent riders down them on mats, bobsleds, or toboggans as far back as the 1400s. The French built waxed wooden slopes and ran down them on wheeled wooden sleds. In 1827 in Pennsylvania the Mauch Chunk Switchback Railway was constructed to carry carloads of coal from the mine on the mountain nine miles downhill to the river landing. The coal company made a second income letting people ride down the hill in the evenings after the coal mine shut down. When a shorter shipping route was made for coal, the Mauch Chunk Switchback Railway carried passengers only, and operated for over a century. BIG DADDY • What’s considered to be the first “real” roller coaster was the Switch Back Railway built at Coney Island in 1884, designed by La Marcus Thompson. Thompson is considered to be the father of the modern roller coaster. The ride he designed was 600 feet long, traveled approximately 6 mph, and cost five cents to ride. It was an instant success, with people standing in line up to three hours for a chance to ride it. Thompson recouped his $1,600 investment in three weeks. (cont)

ROLLER COASTERS (cont) • Thompson went on to design a series of what he dubbed Scenic Railways. Intricately carved train cars traveled first on outdoor sections in a few gentle, fun dips and curves. Then the train entered a large building where passengers viewed various paintings, dioramas, special effects, and stunts, all creatively lit by newfangled electric lights. The Scenic Railways were so popular that Thompson began installing them across the world, each one better than the last. WORLD’S OLDEST • In 1902 at Lakemont Park in Pennsylvania, the Leap-the-Dips roller coaster was constructed. With a maximum height of 48 feet and a top speed of 10 mph, it wasn’t much by today’s standards. However, it goes down in the history books as the oldest operating roller coaster in the world. It closed down in 1985 but was rescued and restored. In 1996 it was named a National Landmark and it reopened for business in 1999. THE BIG BOOM • Roller coasters really got a boost when population centers across the U.S. began to sprawl. Early in the 1900s, transit companies began expanding their streetcar and trolley routes. Outlying routes often got very few riders especially on evenings, weekends, and holidays. Transportation companies needed ways to increase the number of riders on their end lines. The solution was to build parks at the end of the tracks, drawing city dwellers out to relatively rural areas for picnics, boating, swimming, carnival games, and rides. Roller coasters were the most thrilling ride of all. Their popularity spread across the U.S. as these ‘trolley parks’ popped up in more and more locations. By 1919 there were around 1,500 roller coasters in North America, more than twice as many as exist in North America today. (cont)

TIDBITS of Kootenai County, Idaho Issue #11 March 15th 2021 NEW TECHNOLOGY • A revolution in the roller coaster industry was instigated by an inventor named John Miller. Miller, known as “the Edison of roller coasters,” at one time worked for La Marcus Thompson. Miller had over 100 roller coaster related patents in his name, many of which are still used on today’s modern coasters. In 1912 he patented the “Miller Under Friction Wheel.” Commonly known as the “upstop wheel,” this invention literally locks cars to the tracks, making sharp curves, high speed, and steep drops possible. The rails are shaped like an upside-down “L” and the wheels fit underneath the lip. The passengers might come out of their seats but the wheels can never leave the rails. This led to the next great innovation in roller coasters: the locking lap safety bar, also invented by Miller. Some of the coasters John Miller designed still exist today, including three at Pittsburgh’s Kennywood Park. A RECOVERY • The second golden age of roller coasters arrived in the early 1970s, sparked by the 1972 opening of the Racer at King’s Island near Cincinnati. This coaster attracted enormous attention, and resulted in a roller coaster building boom. New technologies allowed heart-stopping features such loop-the-loops, corkscrews, coasters that are ridden while standing up, and suspended coasters that swing from overhead rails, allowing the rider’s feet to dangle in the air.

THE NEXT GENERATION • As technology marches forward, roller coasters get bigger, faster, and steeper. • When developers at Buffalo Bill’s Casino south of Las Vegas wanted to build a roller coaster at their resort with a record-setting 225-foot drop, they ran up against city ordinances that prohibited roller coasters from standing taller than 209 feet. They solved the dilemma by tunneling below ground so that the coaster, called the Desperado, dropped the full 225 feet without breaking any laws. Riders enjoyed the death-defying drop until the coaster closed in 2020. • In 2005, Kingda Ka opened for business, claiming the title of both the fastest and the tallest roller coaster in North America. The coaster cars rocket to the top of a 456-foot tower, accelerating from 0 to 128 mph within 3.5 seconds, before a stomach-clenching cork-screw drop back down to earth. A second 13-story hill gives riders a few moments of weightlessness before the ride is over, less than 60 seconds after it began. The highest point of the ride is 45 stories tall, which is about 4/5ths the height of the Washington Monument. It’s tall enough that the entire Statue of Liberty would fit under the main arch with 100 feet to spare. • • The braking system, done with magnetic fields generated by 473 magnets, means there’s no friction to wear parts out. It’s silent, efficient, and fail-safe.

SOLVING THE HEADACHE AND MIGRAINE PUZZLE
Many a person has tried to resolve their headaches and migraines by suppressing them. Having had many decades of headaches and migraines myself, dating back to early childhood, I can appreciate reaching out for anything that works. Having also resolved them (they are now past history), I know how it feels to be rid of them as well (hint: it is wonderful!). But it was a journey. The most important lesson I have learned about headaches and migraines, from my own history and that of many, many patients, is that there is no one reason for them, and no one cure. It is a puzzle. An important thing that anyone can do for their headaches is to explore the multiplicity of factors that could be involved. Piecing together other seemingly unrelated symptoms, tests beyond the traditional medical tests, listening intently while going through a thorough health and lifestyle history (not just current, but past as well) – it’s this kind of investigative work that is required to piece together the puzzle of what is causing the headaches. Of course, it doesn’t stop there either. Once a complete picture is coming into clarity, acting on what is needed to change them, once and for all, is in order. To live a life headache-free, you have to be willing to live without that which is causing the headaches.
For instance: I had a patient with severe migraines especially after activity. She had a very athletic lifestyle that was compromised every time she ran or even remotely pushed herself. She ate cleanly, drank plenty of water, was within a perfect weight, but yet suffered these debilitating migraines. After thorough investigation we found she was being overdosed on bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (bHRT). In fact, it was so high, the lab called me personally to report it. When I told her I felt this was the cause, she was alarmed and in tears because she so loved her b-HRT. Patients have to make their own decision whether or not to go off medications, and this was no different. She went home, discussed it with her husband and medical doctor and decided to wean off. Weaning of HRT is not an easy process and it wasn’t for her. However, within a month, she could already tell the difference in her migraines, and within a few months she was migraine free, and still is, several years later. Even though, in that case, there appeared to be one cause, it still took more investigative work to figure out, beyond that, why she needed HRT in the first place. So, using acupuncture, dietary modifications and supplements, we resolved her hormonal imbalance (you can’t go off a medication and not fix the underlying cause that necessitated the drugs!). With good investigative work, you can solve the problem of your headaches once and for all by putting together all the puzzle pieces and fixing the picture, not just suppress the puzzle piece!

VA Extends Loan Forbearance Period
Some of you are going to breathe a sigh of relief at this news: The Department of Veterans Affairs moratorium on evictions and foreclosures was due to end March 31, but it’s been extended to June 30. The extension is designed to keep you in your home while you sort out the damaging financial effects of the COVID pandemic. If you need forbearance (permission to miss payments or send a reduced amount), your lender is expected to grant you that for up to six months. During this time there are to be no late fees or penalties, but interest will accrue. The deadline to ask for forbearance is June 30, 2021. If you can’t make up your missed payments all at once when you have income again, call the mortgage company. If you’re not comfortable doing that, call the VA loan people directly at 877-8273702. Your missed payments can’t just be pushed to the end of the loan period, but it is possible the loan could be modified. The VA allows loans to be extended under certain situations. Your credit score won’t take a negative hit during forbearance (not making payments), but only if you were current at the time you requested it. If you were already late on payments when you asked for help, then yes, they’ll continue to report you as delinquent during the whole period. That’s why it’s important to stay ahead of the problem by asking for help before things spin out of control. You have three ways to keep your home: forbearance, a repayment plan or a loan modification. To talk to the VA about COVID-related loan payment problems, call them at 877-827-3702. If you’re a renter and are in danger of being homeless, call the VA immediately at (877) 4243838.

It’s Pi Day! Here’s the formula: Take several highly talented leads, mix with a positive or negative force, add a dash of inspiration and turn up the heat -- dramatically. No matter how you slice it, movies about the science of numbers are “mathemagically” delicious. And what better treat on Pi Day (3.14 ... March 14) than a heaping helping of math movies? It all adds up to plenty of entertaining couch time. “Hidden Figures” -- Taraji P. Henson, Octavia Spencer and Janelle Monae play a trio of highly influential Black women in the early space program at NASA, who help to create the science, mathematics and engineering necessary to launch astronaut John Glenn into space and bring him home again, all while breaking past racial barriers. “Stand and Deliver” -- Based on the real-life story of Jaime Escalante (Edward James Olmos), a high-school teacher at Garfield High in East Los Angeles, this film follows a group of written-off Latino kids who took and passed the AP Calculus exam under Escalante’s tutelage. “Good Will Hunting” -- Written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, this drama centers around Will Hunting (Damon) -- a genius autodidact whose working-class roots keep him in trouble. While employed as a janitor at MIT, he anonymously solves an equation posted for the grad students. When he is found out, a professor arranges for Will to study mathematics and receive therapy in lieu of jail time. “A Beautiful Mind” -- Directed by Ron Howard, this biographical drama of the life of gifted American mathematician John Nash (Russell Crowe) chronicles his lifelong struggle with schizophrenic hallucinations that led him to believe he was conducting anti-Soviet research on behalf of the Department of Defense. “Moneyball” -- What can you do when your ball club is not the winningest and has a tiny budget? If you’re Billy Beane (Brad Pitt), GM-ing the Oakland A’s in the early aughts, you get creative. Turning away from traditional “gut-based” scouting, Beane pulls together a team that almost wins it all using empirical analysis -- assigning players a mathematical value stemming from their on-base percentage. “The Imitation Game” -- This tense historical drama is based on the life of Alan Turing (Benedict Cumberbatch), who helped turn the tide of World War II by decrypting messages sent by the German Nazis using the Enigma machine. “Agora” -- Rachel Weisz plays Hypatia, a fourthcentury astronomer and mathematician in Alexandria, Egypt. She theorizes with a small group of follower-students while civil and religious unrest threaten the world around them. “The Theory of Everything” -- The tragically triumphant love story of theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking (Eddie Redmayne) and his wife and partner Jane (Felicity Jones) begins at Cambridge University, where the two meet, and carries through as Hawking is diagnosed with the motor neurone disease that will leave him progressively unable to move.

Here Are 2 New Scams to Watch Out For
They never stop. Scammers are continually busy, and so must we be to stay one step ahead of them. Here are two more scams they’re trying to foist on us. If you’re still working and receive W-2 or 1099 forms, look them over very carefully. If it’s a 1099-G, that’s for unemployment benefits. Did you receive those benefits? If not, it means that a scammer has used your identity to collect benefits. Those 1099-G forms go to the IRS, and that income is taxable. Contact the unemployment office that issued the 1099-G and have them send a corrected form showing zero unemployment income. If you can’t get the corrected form in time, file your taxes without using that 1099-G dollar amount and enclose a note saying you didn’t receive unemployment benefits. The IRS is well aware of this problem. Then send for your credit report, check it and put a freeze on your credit. In another new scam, if you do an online search for a big box store and the first result on the list says “Ad” in front of the store name, don’t click it. This scam is especially sneaky because if you click on the “Ad” link, you’ll initially go to a page that looks very real. It isn’t. Clicking it will take you to a site that may freeze your screen ... and provide you a handy phone number to call to have the problem fixed. The person at the other end is a scammer who will ask for permission to access your computer remotely. If you allow it, he’ll put a bug in your computer that locks everything up, and you’ll have to pay to get it released. Instead of doing a search, type in the Internet address of the store you want (call them if you’re not sure what it is) and go directly there. (c) 2021 King Features Synd., Inc.
The primary joy of working in Assisted Living is, without a doubt, the loving positive impact of the residents of all faiths and backgrounds on my heart. Today was no exception. A lovely resident asked me to read a story she wrote of her personal experience. It seems important to share it with you… “Road Rage” (Written by Barbara Powell with Deeann Chisholm) God has a purpose for our lives. Our purpose will always involve bringing His love and mercy to a hurting and dying world. If we watch, we will see opportunities to fulfill our purpose. Road rage is one sign that people are becoming angrier and feeling more out of control of their lives and environments. Wild and reckless driving, obscene gestures and outright physical violence cause terror for other drives and pedestrians. The rage spreads like a virus as one person responds to another person’s violence in an equally violent way. We all have places we need to go and be at certain times. Sometimes we underestimate the amount of time it takes to get somewhere and drive a bit more aggressively than we normally would. We cut off the person who seems to be moving too slowly; we tailgate, run red lights and stop signs, and exceed the speed limit. We are misbehaving, hoping that we can get away with it. As a senior citizen, I am more and more aware that I have to be very careful and watch what I am doing. It is very easy to make mistakes that could cause an accident, as my friend and I recently learned. After a wonderful dinner one night, my friend, Sandy, and I had just gotten on a street when we witnessed an accident. A woman in a sedan assumed that she was at a four way stop. She pulled out and broadsided a pickup truck. The pickup truck had the right of way. There were two young children in the club cab. The man jumped out of his truck and began screaming at the woman. He then pulled his children from the cab and examined them for injuries. After assuring himself that they were uninjured, he placed them back into the truck. He then got into his truck and pulled it around to a parking area. The woman just sat in her car. She was obviously stunned. Again the man approached her car and ordered her to move her car out of traffic into the parking area. His anger was intense but controlled. I said, “Sandy, I think this is our call.: She pulled around the corner into the parking lot. We parked next to the two vehicles. I said, “I’ll take the woman, Sandy, you take the kids.” The woman was standing outside her car, very upset and crying. She said over and over, “I didn’t do it on purpose. I wouldn’t hurt your children. I love children. I am in an unfamiliar area. I thought this was a four way stop. I am so sorry. I am so sorry.” I wrapped both of my arms around the woman. Sandy went to the children and wrapped her arms around them and spoke calming words to them. A five-year old told me once, “we all make mistakes!” With this memory, I repeated the wise words of the five-year old to the distressed woman. “It’s okay. We all make mistakes.” After the accident had cleared, the man came to where we were standing. He said to the woman, “I’m so sorry that I yelled at you.” He put his arm around her and gave her a hug. That evening God’s will was for us to bring His love and mercy into that stressful situation. We were to be a calming presence for the concerned father, his children, and the frightened young woman. Our response to God’s question, “Who can I send? Who will go?” should always be, “Here I am, Lord. Send me.” For guidance, questions, and tours of The Lodge Assisted Living, call Linda Davis 208-755-3637.
