INTERESTING EDIBLESby Sarah Bates

Food nourishes your body just like Tidbits nourishes your brain! Get a double helping with these bits and bites that you might not have known about the things we eat and drink!• Did you know there are over 300 different

varieties of honey in North America alone? Honey, a natural energy restorer, was not only used by ancient cultures but it has been found in ancient Egyptian tombs. There have also been discoveries of 4,500 year old Egyptians carvings which are some of the earliest depictions of bee keeping.

• Do you know what a pluot is? It’s a complex hybrid between a plum and an apricot. It’s traits tend to be more plum-like, with a smooth skin. They are very sweet and intense in flavor and very juicy. They are not to be confused with an aprium, which is also a plum/apricot hybrid that is 1/4th plum and 3/4th apricot. Another plum/apricot hybrid is the plumcot. What’s a plum+apricot+peach? That one’s called a Peacotum.

• The island nation of Grenada in the Caribbean was named for the pomegranate. So was grenadine syrup and the grenade. All come from the Latin root word punica granatum,which means pomegranate.

Hiring ContraCtors for remodelingIf you have a remodeling project in mind, late summer is a good time to line up your contractors. Construction crews are coming to the end of their busy season and looking for work to keep themselves going over the cooler months, especially the winter.

Before you begin: Take written bids from at least three contractors. Be detailed in your specifications when it comes to the type of wood you want, the model and color of cabinets, the number of coats of a specific paint, etc.

Ask for references of any contractors you interview, of course, and call them. Ask if the project was completed on time and at the promised cost. But don’t stop there. While it’s still warm and crews are out, drive around your area and make note of the addresses of homes where work is being done, as well as the company name and phone number of any work vehicles in the yard. When the projects are complete, approach the homeowners and ask whether they were satisfied with the work. They might even show you around to see the completed project.

Make sure any contract you write is for a fixed price that includes materials and labor. That way you know the bottom line. If you sign a standard contract, read it carefully. Remember: If it’s not in writing, it doesn’t exist. Don’t agree to any clause that can change the deadline, price or materials on your job.

While it’s tempting to save money by acting as your own general contractor, you may be happier in the long run if you hire a residential general contractor with the expertise to order supplies and hire and schedule sub-contractors.

Remember that while the general contractor will be responsible for a lot of things, you can’t step completely out of the process. With liability insurance and workers’ comp, for example, all crews who step foot on your property need to produce a copy of their certificate before they begin work. When new materials show up, be there when it’s being unloaded and look for damaged or missing material. The general contractor also is responsible for paying the sub-contractors, so you need to require a performance bond to be in place for all levels of contractors.

SCHOOLS (continued):

• During the 18th and early 19th centuries, Canadian families remained the unrivalled setting for education in that country; few children in what was then British North America received formal instruction either from tutors or in schools.

• Although Thomas Jefferson had supported the concept of free public education, elementary schooling was only available to America’s wealthy until the 1840s. That’s when reformers like Horace Mann of Massachusetts and Henry Barnard of Connecticut began to push for tax-funded schools with the belief that universal education would produce good citizens, unite society, prevent crime and end poverty.

• Until the 1930s, most Americans only completed eight years of school. High School only became popular during the Great Depression, when job-strapped communities saw benefits to keeping teenagers in class and out of the workforce where they’d only serve as low-cost competition to adults.

• Founded in 1878 by Bishop Isaac Hellmuth and the Anglican Diocese of Huron, the University of Western Ontario is one of Canada’s oldest and best universities. The first students graduated in arts and medicine in 1883.

• Remember James Meredith? The University of Mississippi gained national attention when it denied admission to James Meredith, an African American, who applied in 1961. He took the case to court, won, and started classes at Ole Miss in 1963. What many people don’t know is that he successfully graduated in 1964 and has been a supporter of Ole Miss ever since.

• 74.9 million: That’s the number of people enrolled in school throughout the United States — from nursery school to college. To put this in perspective, this amounts to more than one-fourth of the U.S. population age 3 and older.

• Of the approximately 7.2 million teachers in the United States, 2.9 million work at elementary and middle school levels. On average, median annual wages of kindergarten, elementary, middle, and secondary school teachers ranged from $47,100 to $51,180 in May 2008; the lowest 10 percent earned $30,970 to $34,280; the top 10 percent earned $75,190 to $80,970. The average hourly wage for other school workers? Bus drivers earn $16.56 an hour, custodians earn $14.19 an hour, and cafeteria workers earn about $11.60 an hour.

• The average number of children participating each month in the United States’ national school lunch program in 2009 was 31.3 million. That’s a lot of milk.

• America’s total apple production estimate in 2009 was 20.11 billion pounds, up four percent from 2007. The chances are good that the apples your children present to their teachers or enjoy for lunch were grown in Washington State, which accounts for more than half of the nation’s total production.

• In the fall of 2009, a record of nearly 49.8 million students attended public elementary and secondary schools in America. Of these, almost 35.0 million were in pre-kindergarten through 8th grade and 14.8 million in grades 9 through 12. An additional 5.8 million students attended private schools in 2009.

• The per-pupil expenditure on public elementary and secondary education for the United States in 2007 was almost $10,000. New York spent the most among states or state equivalents ($15,981), followed by New Jersey ($15,691) and the District of Columbia ($14,324). Utah ($5,683) spent the least per student, on average.

• Education pays off. According to a recent study reported in U.S. News & World Report, college graduates earn an average $20,000 a year more than people who only have a high school diploma. So get a degree.

• In the fall of 2009, a record 18.4 million students were expected to attend America’s 2-year and 4-year colleges and universities, an increase of about 3.1 million since fall 2000.

• Females were expected to comprise the majority of those college students, numbering about 10.5 million compared to 7.9 million males in fall 2009. Although the majority of students will attend full time (an estimated 11.4 million for fall 2009), about 7.0 million are expected to attend part time.

• Go Buckeyes. The largest college campus in the United States by enrollment is Ohio State University, in Columbus, which in the fall of 2009 enrolled 55,014 students. No wonder their football games are sellouts; think of all the students on campus.

dog’s marking doesn’t do deck any favors

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I have two 2-year-old neutered canine brothers (I found out after the fact that it is not a good idea to get them from the same litter). They have lots of forested room to roam, but “Jake” -- the dominant one -- occasionally insists on peeing on the deck. I can’t catch him at it. Why does he do that, and how can I get him to stop? -- Carolyn V., via e-mail

DEAR CAROLYN: That can be tough to stop, since the deck is often considered part of the family living area for everyone, including the dogs. You’ll need to regain control of the deck area and remind Jake who’s boss.Whenever the dogs are off-leash, roaming through the yard and woods, block access to the deck and don’t allow them on until you have called them up the steps and clipped a leash on Jake and his brother. You may want to have a second person leash the less-dominant dog.Jake may, at this time, attempt to tug himself over to his usual marking spot, and drag you with him. Give him a firm “no” and order him to sit and stay.At this time you can take his brother inside the house while you work with Jake. For the next several days or weeks, the deck is going to become Training Central. Work with Jake and his brother, separately. Whenever Jake begins to sniff around or tries to mark something, firmly tell him “no” and continue giving him basic obedience commands. When he follows your commands, and especially when he stops sniffing and obeys rather than tries to mark, give him lots of praise and treats (if you choose).To further discourage marking, clean the areas he has marked and treat with an odor neutralizer.

MUSIC LEGEND:

BOB DYLANBorn Robert Allen Zimmerman, Bob Dylan is perhaps the best known and best loved of all American singer-songwriters.

• Robert Allen Zimmerman’s birth date is thought to be May 24, 1941. But a passport issued to Robert Dylan in 1974 says his birth date is May 11, 1941. So which is it Bob?

• Dylan was scheduled to appear on “The Ed Sullivan Show” on May 12, 1963. He was going to sing “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “Talkin’ John Birch Paranoid Blues.” But during the dress rehearsal, he was told that “John Birch” was deemed too controversial by network censors, and program producer Bob Precht, whose idea it was to invite Dylan on the show, asked him to sing another song. Dylan declined and did not appear.

• In August 1969, Dylan made his first paid public performance since July 26, 1966, when he broke his neck in the crash of his Triumph 500 motorcycle. Backed by the Band, he performed in front of 200,000 people at England’s Isle of Wight festival. He was paid $75,000 for a 70-minute performance.

• In 1967, while recuperating from his motorcycle accident, Dylan signed with MGM Records, home of the Righteous Brothers, the Lovin’ Spoonful, Connie Francis and the late Hank Williams. MGM withdrew the contract, and Dylan signed with Columbia.

• Dylan won his first Grammy in 1980 for best rock vocal performance for the religious-oriented “Gotta Serve Somebody.”

• Dylan’s reputation as a songwriter is larger than his record sales. His best-selling album is “Greatest Hits” (1967), which sold between 2 million and 3 million copies. The runner-up is “Greatest Hits - Vol. II” (1971), selling one million copies. Columbia Records doesn’t release sales figures, but a press release said Vol. II is nearing double-platinum status. The next bestsellers are “Desire” (‘76) and “Blood on the Tracks” (‘75).

• Dylan was not a big hit-maker either. None of his singles ever reached No. 1 on Billboard’s pop chart. “Like a Rolling Stone” (‘65) peaked at No. 2, as did “Rainy Day Women #12 & 35” (‘66).

• Three Dylan songs begin with nearly the same line, “Early in the morning.” The songs are “Obviously Five Believers,” “Pledging My Time” and “Tangled Up in Blue” (which actually starts “early one morning”).

• Dylan’s harmonica is heard on records by Harry Belafonte, George Harrison, Steve Goodman, Roger McGuinn, Booker T. and Priscilla Jones, Doug Sahm, Carolyn Hester, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, and Sly & Robbie.

• Dylan had a rule that he only recorded music at night. He would show up to the studio around 9 p.m. and work until the early hours of morning Occasionally his band would record music pieces during the day and try to get Dylan to listen to them.

• The Minnesota Historical Society lists 97 Dylan items in its reference library. Included are a 1987 Ph.D. thesis by a Purdue University student, five fanzines, 17 books and articles published in Germany, one children’s book and Dylan’s original, hand-written lyric sheet for “Temporary Like Achilles,” a 1966 song on the album “Blonde on Blonde.” The most interesting title in the society’s collection is “Mysteriously Saved: An Astrological Investigation into Bob Dylan’s Conversion to American Fundamentalism,” by John Ledbury.

teachable moments are everywhere“Stop, everyone -- a teachable moment,” called out the dad as he and his three school-age kids screeched to a halt on their bikes to check out an unusual scene in our neighborhood. Parked in the middle of a front yard was an enormous drilling rig spattering and spewing mud and water to reach heat 180 feet below the ground for the creation of a new geothermal heating and cooling system for the house. It was a “science 101” lesson in action, as the workers explained to the curious family how they were tapping into the free energy beneath the earth’s surface.

Teachable moments abound when you keep a watch for interesting people, places and things in your own community. Here are some ideas to keep kids’ and adults’ minds sharp this summer:--In the morning, take your kids on a mystery outing. Walk or ride by bike, car or public transportation. Give them clues along the way and let them guess as you go. Exciting and unique destinations might be a construction site, fishing wharf or a local historical fort where people are dressed in period clothing, or to view the city from an observation deck of a tall building. --Visit a farmers market to show your child how to choose, weigh and pay for locally grown fresh produce such as tomatoes, zucchini, onions and lettuce. On the way home, talk about where the same vegetables are harvested other times of the year, when it is winter where you live. For dinner, prepare some of the locally grown food, such as corn on the cob. Let kids brush melted butter on the corn with a small, natural-bristle brush when it’s ready to eat.--As the summer progresses, remember special times and keep the do-together fun alive with an ABC memory game. Start with someone in the family who recalls something she did or saw that starts with an “A.” Continue through the alphabet as memories trigger stories of outings, sleepover camp and ballgames.

• For sunburned skin, try using cold mayonnaise as a balm. And next time, wear sunblock!

• “Here’s how I remember to take my daily pills: I place the pill bottles by my coffeemaker. In the morning, I fix my cup of coffee and get all my pills together. Then I set the bottles on the opposite counter. In the evening, I prep the next day’s pot of coffee and move the bottles back to the coffeemaker. If they are by the coffeemaker, and it’s not set up, I have not taken them yet.” -- M.R. in Florida

• “I know it’s still summer, but I am gearing up for the holidays early. I have been taking advantage of sales all year long to purchase fun, interesting and inexpensive items so that when December rolls around, I will not be caught off guard (or out of cash!). It’s not too late to start now.” -- S. in Washington

• When giving pills to dogs, try this old trick: Hide the pill in peanut butter. It masks the scent and taste of most pills, and will work for many dogs.

• Help for mosquito bites: Try rubbing a bit of Vick’s Vapo-Rub into an itchy mosquito bite. The menthol will soothe the itch.

• Purchase a set of inexpensive Frisbees at a discount store and use them as food plates in the car or at the picnic table. They can be “filled” with a snack or more, and they travel well, since there is a nice-size “lip” to keep food in place.
