TIDBITS® CELEBRATES BIRTHDAYS OF
AUGUST BABIES by Kathy Wolfe
“Happy Birthday to you!” says Tidbits to all those born in August, as we bring you some specifics about some of the more famous August babies. • U.S. Patent No. 4,136,359 was issued in January of 1979 to August baby Steve Wozniak for a “microcomputer for use with video display.” Wozniak had quit his job at Hewlett-Packard and along with Steve Jobs, formed Apple Computer in 1976. Within six years, Apple was on the prestigious Fortune 500 list. In 1981, Wozniak survived the crash of his Beechcraft Bonanza into a 12-foot embankment. He suffered from temporary amnesia as a result, with no remembrance whatsoever of the crash.

Interesting Stuff
AUGUST BABIES (continued): • Neil Armstrong, the first person to set foot on the moon, turns 81 this month. Before he was an astronaut, he served as a U.S. Navy pilot, flying 78 missions over Korea at the ripe old age of 21. After leaving the Navy at 22, he graduated from Purdue University with a degree in aeronautical engineering and became a test pilot. His first space mission was in 1966 on Gemini 8. The Apollo 11 mission landed on the moon on July 20, 1969. Armstrong’s first words upon the craft’s landing were, “Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed.” As he stood at the bottom of the ladder before his first step, he said, “I’m going to step off the LEM now.” Then came his legendary words as he set his foot on the lunar surface, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Along with fellow astronaut Buzz Aldrin, Armstrong spent 2.5 hours exploring the moon. Shortly after the mission, he announced that he would not fly in space again and became a professor of aerospace engineering at the University of Cincinnati. • The 7-foot, 1-inch-tall (2.2-m) Wilt “The Stilt” Chamberlain almost didn’t make it to the NBA. As a delicate child, he nearly lost his life to pneumonia and missed an entire year of school due to the illness. After his recovery, he didn’t care for basketball, but excelled in track and field. By the time he was 10 years old, he was already 6 feet (1.83 m) tall, and when he entered high school, he stood at 6 feet, 11 inches (2.1 m). Chamberlain played a year for the Harlem Globetrotters in 1958, with a $50,000 annual salary, before heading to Philadelphia with the NBA in 1959. In 1962, he set the long-standing record of scoring 100 points in a game, helping Philly triumph over the New York Knicks 169 to 147. When he retired, he had 31,419 career points. • If you haven’t read the work of American poet Katharine Lee Bates, you’ve certainly sung it. While visiting Colorado’s Pikes Peak in 1893, the 34-yearold professor of English at Wellesley College was so moved by the view, she wrote a poem entitled “America,” which was published two years later. A church organist and choirmaster, Samuel A. Ward, composed the music, and in 1910, it was released as “America the Beautiful.” • The words to another patriotic song were penned by an August baby, Francis Scott Key. During the War of 1812, as British troops invaded Washington, D.C., Key, the city’s 35-year-old district attorney, stood watching the attack on Fort McHenry in the midst of the Battle of Baltimore. After the smoke from the bombarding cleared, the American flag could be seen waving above the fort. On his way back to Baltimore after the battle, he began writing a poem on the back of a letter, words which would later become “The Star-Spangled Banner.” • Terry Gene Bollea gained fame using the stage name Hulk Hogan. We know him as the star of the World Wrestling Federation, but baseball was his first love. As a high school student, he was considered the best pitcher in the Florida school system, and was being considered for the pros. He majored in business management in college, then, prior to entering the ring, spent 10 years as a professional guitarist in several bands and as a studio musician.

• Film director M. Night Shyamalan was born Manoj Nelliyattu Shyamalan in India but was raised in a wealthy Philadelphia suburb and educated at a private Episcopal Academy. He was born to a physician father and a physician mother, and his wife is also a doctor, as are nine other family members who are either MDs or Ph.Ds. Noted for movies with a strange twist at the end, he makes a cameo appearance in each film. He cites “Raiders of the Lost Ark” as his own favorite film. • Melinda French Gates met her future husband while employed by his company, Microsoft. She had earned degrees in computer science and economics from Duke University before going to work at Microsoft, where she participated in developing some of their most celebrated products, Publisher, Encarta and Expedia.

Well socialized cats were likely well socialized kittens. Kittens learn from their mother’s calm or fearful attitude toward humans. Although feeding times are important in forming the human/cat bond, it is also vital to include playing, grooming, and stroking to develop a kitten’s trust of humans. Kittens usually suckle until 8 weeks of age but they may continue to suckle longer on littermates, inanimate objects, and humans for comfort and security. Orphaned kittens or those weaned too soon are more likely to exhibit inappropriate suckling behaviors later in life. Ideally kittens need to stay with their littermates until 12 weeks of age. Many behavioral problems that domestic cats have can be traced back to early poor socialization problems.

Kittens that fail to develop social skills usually have had an unstable kittenhood. Orphaning or early separation from mother and littermates has a profound effect in personality expression. Aggressive behavior, lack of litter box etiquette, inability to socialize with humans, and destructive behavior are a few unstable personality disorders that affect cats having a poor human/cat bond. Kittens that stay with mom and their littermates and that are handled daily during the first 7 weeks of life develop good social skills. Early positive nurturing leads to kittens that learn faster, are more curious and are more playful. The first two years in feline social development can be influenced by good experiences and positive human interaction. A loving home and stable lifestyle can change your cat’s behavior. Dr. James K.

Scott McQueen Agate is varied and beautiful. There are several types of agate: Cyclops agate is a Mexican agate showing only a single eye. Moss agate has colors and filaments suggestive of vegetable growth. Dendritic agates have fern like patterns in them. Turritella agate is formed from silicified fossil Turritella (snail) shells. Agatized coral is in essence petrified cora often referred to as Petoskey stone. Certain stones when viewed in thin sections using transmitted light show a lovely diffraction spectrum caused by the extreme delicacy of the successive bands. They are called rainbow agates. Sometimes agate coexists with layers of masses of opal, jasper or crystalline quartz. Other forms of agate include carnelian agate, faceted Botswana agate, Greek agate, Brazilian agate, Ellensburg blue agate, blue lace agate, plume agates, Mexican crazy-lace agate, and much more. You’ll find agate used in pins, brooches, paper knives, inkstands, marbles and seals. Agate is also used to make mortars and pestles used by pharmacists to crush and mix chemicals. It is also used for leather burnishing tools.

“Engineered To Last”
LICENSED CONTRACTOR COMPLETE PROPERTY RECONSTRUCTION WWW.QCISS.COM
THIS IS A HAMMER By Samantha Mazzotta Choosing the Right Moving Company Q: We’re moving across the country soon, and for the first time can afford to have a moving company load and carry our furniture for us. However, I’ve heard horror stories on the news and from acquaintances that I could be cheated or have to pay much more than the original quote. Should I go with a moving company anyway? -- Bill S., Los Angeles A: There have been occasional press reports about movers that charge homeowners much more than the original quote. This isn’t always the case, but as with any business transaction, a little caution goes a long way. As with any contractor job, you should get multiple quotes from several different moving companies -- at least three. A flat rate or blind estimate made over the phone should not be accepted; the moving company should send a representative to your home to find out exactly how much furniture, boxes and other items are being moved, what items need special attention and so on. You should get a quote in writing, and don’t agree to it before you’ve gotten estimates from the other companies. To find out how well a moving company does its job, you have a number of options today. The Better Business Bureau is a fair starting point -- you can read complaints about the company, as well as whether they’ve been resolved. For national companies, look at websites like Consumerist. com, which posts reader complaints and attempts to resolve or at least get an explanation about an issue from the companies involved. In major metro areas, you can check review sites like Yelp.com. While these don’t usually have an area where companies can respond to complaints or disputes, you can get a general feel for the company and how it conducts business by the number and types of reviews. Once you’ve selected a moving company, be sure to read all the fine print before signing a moving agreement. Ask as many questions as you need to in order to feel comfortable, particularly about extra costs that are mentioned in the agreement. HOME TIP: Consider purchasing relocation insurance during a move to cover potential accidents or damage to items while they’re in transit.

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel • On Aug. 30, 30 B.C., Cleopatra, queen of Egypt and lover of Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, takes her life following the defeat of her forces against Octavian, the future first emperor of Rome. She committed suicide possibly by means of an asp, a poisonous Egyptian serpent and symbol of divine royalty. • On Aug. 29, 1876, Charles F. Kettering, inventor of the electric self-starter, is born in Loundonville, Ohio. Kettering’s inventions spread far beyond the automotive industry: He helped develop the refrigerant Freon, and took an active role in the medical industry, inventing a treatment for venereal disease, an incubator for premature infants and artificial fever therapy. • On Aug. 27, 1908, future president Lyndon Baines Johnson is born on a farm near Stonewall, Texas. As president, Johnson pushed through the creation of Medicare/Medicaid, Head Start, the Voting Rights Act, the Civil Rights Act and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. • On Aug. 26, 1959, the British Motor Corporation launches its newest car, the small, affordable Mark I Mini. The Mini went on to become one of the best-selling British cars in history. At only 10 feet long, the $800 Mini could sit four adults and had a trunk big enough for a reasonable amount of luggage. • On Sept. 1, 1964, pitcher Masanori Murakami becomes the first Japanese man to play in U.S. baseball’s major leagues. Murakami was a teenage baseball prodigy in Japan, and his left-handed sidearm delivery proved an asset in the United States. • On Aug. 28, 1972, the U.S. Air Force gets its first ace designation since the Korean War when Captain Richard S. Ritchie and his “backseater” (radar intercept officer), Captain Charles B. DeBellevue, shoot down his fifth MiG near Hanoi. • On Aug. 31, 1985, Richard Ramirez, the notorious “Night Stalker,” is captured and nearly killed by a mob in East Los Angeles, Calif., after being recognized from a photograph shown on television and in newspapers. Ramirez was pulled from the enraged mob by police officers.

Pinecrest Community Church is a fellowship of Christ-followers actively demonstrating our love for God by caring and loving one another and serving the communities we live and work in. Do we always get it right? Nope. We freely admit that we're imperfect. We're all different, with different stories and different life struggles, but we come together as one fellowship under the grace and cross of Jesus Christ. We invite you to take this spiritual journey with us in a casual atmosphere of fellowship, worship, and relevant Biblical teaching.

Football and the Blonde A guy took his blonde girlfriend to her first football game. They had great seats right behind their team's bench. After the game, he asked her how she liked it. "Oh, I really liked it," she replied, "especially the tight pants and all the big muscles, but I just couldn't understand why they were killing each other over 25 cents." Dumbfounded, her boyfriend asked, "What do you mean?" "Well, they flipped a coin, one team got it and then for the rest of the game, all they kept screaming was... 'Get the quarterback! Get the quarterback!' I'm like...Helloooooo? It's only 25 cents!!!!"
