HistoryGrace Golden Clayton of Fairmont, WV came up with the idea of a Father’s Day on July 5, 1908. Mrs. Clayton wanted to pay tribute to the 210 fathers who had lost their lives in the Monongah Mining Disaster on December 6, 1907 when 362 men and boys (some sources say 361) were killed in the worst mining disaster in American history. However, because this was a local celebration, the concept of Father’s Day did not influence people living outside of West Virginia.

Sonora Smart Dodd of Spokane, WA got the idea of celebrating a Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Day sermon at her church in May 1910. She was thinking about her widowed father, William Jackson Smart, who raised her and her five brothers, and other fathers. Dodd proposed to Spokane city officials that a Father’s Day be observed on June 5, 1910 which was her father’s birthday. The date was changed to June 19 because the local ministers needed more time to prepare sermons.

Through the years, Father’s Day was celebrated on different days throughout the country. Although President Lyndon Johnson signed a Presidential proclamation in 1966 to celebrate it. It wasn’t officially recognized until April 1972 when President Richard Nixon signed a Congressional resolution declaring the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day.

Our Crazy Language

Why are some girls tomboys? Why are boxing rings square? Why do tugboats push their barges? Why is bra singular and panties plural? Why can homework be done at school? Why does your nose run and your feet smell? Why is “phonics” not spelled the way it

sounds? Why do they call it a TV set when you only have one? Why is it called after dark when it really is after light? If all the world is a stage, where is the audience sitting? If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay you to do it? Why do people drive in a parkway and park in a driveway? Why are they called “stands” when they are made for sitting? Why do

“fat chance” and “slim chance” mean the same thing? Why do happy hour and rush hour last longer than 60 minutes? Why is the third hand on the watch called the second hand? If a

word is misspelled in the dictionary, how would we ever know? Why can morning sickness and daydreaming take place at night? If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where did he find the words? Why do we wash bath towels? Aren’t they clean when we use them? Doesn’t

“expecting the unexpected” make the unexpected expected? Why do we sing Take Me Out to the Ball Game when we are already there? Why are people who ride motorcycles called

bikers and people who ride bikes called cyclists? Why is it that when we transport something by car, it’s called a shipment, but when we transport something by ship, it’s called cargo?

Liven Up Your Meals with Vegetables and Fruits

1. fire up the grillUse the grill to cook vegetables and fruits.

Try grilling mushrooms, carrots, peppers, or potatoes on a kabob skewer. Brush with oil to keep them from drying out. Grilled fruits

like peaches, pineapple, or mangos add great flavor to a cookout.

2. expand the flavor of your casseroles

Mix vegetables such as sauteed onions, peas, pinto beans, or tomatoes into your

favorite dish for that extra flavor.

3. planning womething Italian?Add extra vegetables to your pasta dish.

Slip some peppers, spinach, red beans, on-ions, or cherry tomatoes into your traditional

tomato sauce. Vegetables provide texture and low-calorie bulk that satisfies.

4. get creative with your saladToss in shredded carrots, strawberries,

spinach, watercress, orange segments, or sweet peas for a flavorful, fun salad

5. salad bars aren’t just for saladsTry eating sliced fruit from the salad bar as your dessert when dining out. This will help

you avoid any baked desserts that are high in calories.

6. get in on the stir-frying funTry something new! Stir-fry your veggies - like broccoli, carrots, sugar snap peas,

mushrooms, or green beans- for a quick and easy addition to any meal.

7. add them to your sandwichesWhether it is a sandwich or wrap,

vegetables make great additions to both. Try sliced tomatoes, romaine lettuce, or

avocado on yur everday sandwich or wrap for extra flavor.

8. be creative with your baked goodsAdd apples, bananas, blueblerries, or pears

to your favorite muffin recipe for a treat.

9. make a tasty fruit smoothieFor dessert, blend strawberries,

blueberries, or raspberries with frozen bananas and 100% fruit juice for a delicious

frozen fruit smoothie.

10. liven up an omeletBoost the color and flavor of your morning

omelet with vegetables. Simply chop, saute, and add them to the egg as it cooks. Try combining different vegetables, such as

mushrooms, spinach, onions, or bell peppers.

As we age, we become more susceptible and at risk for a number of diseases, and one of the most serious is diabetes. Diabetes is a condition in which our body is unable to control our blood sugars. Diabetes is a serious disease that is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. It can cause serious health complications, including heart disease, stroke, blindness and amputation of limbs. Fortunately, we can detect diabetes with a simple blood test that your doctor can administer or is available at health fairs and health screenings. It’s called the A1C hemoglobin test, and it measures our average blood sugar levels over a three-month period. When should you get this test? Ask your doctor, but generally we recommend this test at least once a year for non-diabetics, at least every six months for diabetics who are not taking insulin and at least every three months for diabetics taking insulin. But you can watch for some indicators of diabetes on your own and report them to your doctor. These indicators include being very thirsty; urinating frequently, especially at night; blurred vision; feeling tired much of the time; weight loss; dry skin; sores that are slow to heal; frequent infections; or losing feeling or getting tingling feelings in your feet.

Some of the risk factors for diabetes are being over-weight, not exercising, having a family history of diabetes and getting older. Diabetes deserves our serious attention, but it’s also a disease we can control in many instances. Keeping our blood glucose or blood sugar levels within normal ranges helps prevent or delay many problems associated with diabetes, such as heart attacks and stroke, high blood pressure, blindness, amputations and kidney disease. The key is finding a balance between our diets, exercise and medicines and use the three to to keep our blood sugars within normal ranges. We can take the first steps to control our diabetes by watching what we eat. Obviously, reducing our sugar intake is the place to start - and not just direct sugars but hidden sugars in carbohydrates. Exercise also is key. By increasing our exercise, we can burn more calories and reduce our blood sugar, often to normal limits. The third step is to work with your doctor to find a medicine or a combination of medicines that can control your high blood sugar. A number of medications can help your body reduce excess blood sugar by creating more insulin or helping your body use your natural insulin more effectively. In some cases, your doctors may prescribe regular injections of insulin, but in many cases you can control your sugar by a combination of diet, exercise and medication in pill form. Diabetes deserves your serious attention. But by finding the right combination of proper diet, exercise and medications, we can control diabetes and live normal lives.

CONTROLLING DIABETES

Health often becomes a focus of men’s lives as they age. Health issues can affect quality of life and the ability to work and enjoy it. Health promotion and illness prevention is important for men as they age. Besides the use of sunscreen and smoking cessation, some other general health tips for older men include:

* Maintain regular appointments with your doctor, even when you are not sick* Learning about common health problems and concerns in older men* Taking advantage of health screenings such as for osteoporosis* Keeping vaccinations up-to-date such as influenza, pneumonia, and shingles* Staying physically active* Eating a well-balanced, low fat, Mediterranean diet and maintaining a healthy weight* Preventing falls* Doing balancing exercises* Walk in well-lighted areas* Avoiding scatter rugs* Avoiding excessive alcohol intake* Maintaining good mental health* Maintaining social and family connections* Keeping the mind active and stimulated by reading, doing word games, and board games
