TIDBITS GETS FIRED UP ABOUT
NATIONAL BOSS DAYby Stanley Drummond
Bosses are people, too. (Really!) And every year on October 16, America pays tribute to them.• Actually, National Boss Day was created in
1958 by an Illinois secretary named Patricia Haroski. She chose October 16 because it was her father’s birthday. Her father also happened to be her boss at the time. Nevertheless, she felt that bosses in general were underappreciated, and registered the date with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as an official observance.
• Interestingly enough, a 2005 survey done by an international human resources consulting firm revealed that the majority of employees would not trade places with their boss. The primary reason given was the change that would result between them and their co-workers. They could no longer ignore or laugh at any slackers in their department; they’d be responsible for any poor performers.
• Hallmark started selling Boss Day cards in 1979. While they don’t reveal actual sales figures, they do disclose that the “holiday” is poised to break into the list of top 10 card-send-ing events within the next few years.

•On March 13, 1781, the German-born English astronomer William Hershel discovers Uranus, the seventh planet from the sun. Herschel's discovery of a new planet was the first to be made in modern times, and the first to be made by use of a telescope.
• On March 11, 1918, a historic influenza epidemic breaks out at the U.S. Army hospital at Fort Riley, Kan. The disease soon traveled to Europe with the American soldiers heading to the battlefields of France. The flu would eventually kill 675,000
Americans and more than 20 million people around the world.
• On March 12, 1922, author Jack Kerouac is born in Lowell, Mass. In World War II, he served in the Navy but was expelled for severe personality problems that may have been symptoms of mental illness. It was not until 1957 when he published "On the Road" that he became famous as a seminal figure of the Beat Generation.
• On March 7, 1938, Janet Guthrie, the first woman to compete in the Indianapolis 500 and Daytona 500 races, is born in Iowa City, Iowa. Guthrie drove in her final Indy 500 in 1979 and her last Daytona 500 in 1980. Her helmet and driver's suit are in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.
• On March 10, 1945, 300 American bombers drop almost 2,000 tons of incendiaries on Tokyo. The attack destroyed large portions of the
Japanese capital and killed 100,000 civilians. Ten square miles of eastern Tokyo were entirely obliterated, and an estimated 250,000 buildings were destroyed.
• On March 8, 1951, the Lonely Hearts Killers -- Martha Beck and Raymond Martinez Fernandez -- are executed in the electric chair at Sing Sing Prison in New York. The odd couple had schemed to seduce, rob and murder women who placed personal ads in newspapers. Their story has been the subject of several movies, most recently "Lonely Hearts" (2006).
• On March 9, 1985, the first-ever Adopt-a-Highway sign is erected on Highway 69 in Texas. The highway was adopted by the Tyler Civitan Club, which committed to picking up trash along a designated 2-mile stretch of the road.

• It was English biologist Thomas Henry Huxley who made the following sage observation: "There is no greater mistake than the hasty conclusion that opinions are worthless because they are badly argued."
• In 1955, a woman in Italy gave birth to a baby who weighed 22 pounds, 8 ounces. • Two United State first ladies ran away to get married: Florence Harding, future wife of President Warren G. Harding, eloped with her first husband when she was 19, and Anna Harrison eloped with the future ninth U.S. President William Henry Harrison (also known as "Old Tippecanoe") when she was 20 and he was 22. • The substance now known as cat litter was originally designed to be used as nesting material for chickens. • Early in the history of the Christian church, tea was considered to be a dangerous intoxicant. • Louis Diat, chef at the New York City Ritz-Carlton in the early 20th century, is usually credited with first creating the soup known as vichyssoise. He based the recipe on one his mother and grandmother used to make, but he had to change the name to something a bit more fancy; it seems that "Mama's Potato-Leek Puree" didn't fit in with the other menu items. • The blood of the icefish has no color. • Have you ever noticed that there's a pale crescent of flesh at the base of each of your fingernails? If you want to be technical, the word to describe it is "lunula."***Thought for the Day: "Animals have these advantages over man: They never hear the clock strike, they die without any idea of death, they have no theologians to instruct them, their last moments are not disturbed by unwelcome and unpleasant ceremonies, their funerals cost them nothing, and no one starts lawsuits over their wills." -- Voltaire

PAW’S CORNERBy Sam Mazzotta
Midnight Rambler
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I have an 8-year-old Schnauzer, “Fixer,” who has recently started getting into things during the night, after I’m in bed. He has torn open bags, taken things from my purse and gotten into my grandkids’ arts and crafts box. Now I have to be care-ful not to leave anything around. We have not changed the way we are doing things. Could this be his age? -- Phyllis H., Rochester, N.Y.
DEAR PHYLLIS: I’d be remiss if I didn’t recommend you take him to the veterinarian first thing, just to make sure there is no un-derlying health issue causing his sudden be-havioral change.If everything checks out, tackle the prob-lem from two angles. First, even though you haven’t changed his daily schedule, some-thing subtle may have changed in the house or yard. Pay attention to nighttime happen-ings. Is there some new noise outside? Did something happen while you were asleep, per-haps, that may have caused Fixer to become anxious?Next, make some changes in his day and night routine that will help him feel more secure when you’re asleep. Extend his evening walk a bit and add some basic obedience training and play time to the evening schedule. When
it’s your bedtime, lead Fixer over to his bed-ding and have him lie down and stay. Check back in five minutes, then in 30; if he’s still in his bed, praise him and give him a little treat. If he’s not in his bed, lead him back and repeat. Place a favorite chew toy next to him.At first, Fixer will hop right back out once he thinks you’re asleep and proceed with his nightly rummaging. Be patient. It will take some time for him to associate this routine with the idea that you want him to stay there at night. Meantime, keep placing people things out of reach. Put doggie toys in their place.

Two Secrets to Keeping Your Skin Looking Young
Just because a person is growing older, doesn’t mean they have to look older. With today’s scientific
understanding of skin health, it is possible to keep your skin looking young and healthy as you age.
Among the many secrets to keeping youthful skin, two of the most important are as follows:
1.) Protect Your Skin From Sun Damage The altitude here in Casper makes people particularly prone to UV damage from sunlight. Sun damage
can cause white spots or dark spots known as hypo or hyper pigmentation, premature wrinkles, broken
capillaries (redness), enlarged pores, dry or flaky skin, and precancerous conditions.
Damage to the skin from the sun can be repaired by mild to moderate acid peels, photo rejuvenation,
laser resurfacing, microdermabrasion, and topical application of retinoids.
It’s important to protect your skin with the optimal sun screen or sunblock for your skin type. You can
also protect your skin by making sure your supplement program includes sufficient antioxidant nutrients
that protect your skin from sun damage. These include vitamin C, vitamin E, Co-Q 10, polyphenols from
green tea extract, and xanthones from mangosteen. New studies are coming out on white tea and the
benefits of the de-aging of the skin at a cellular level.2.) Nourish Your Skin The typical American diet is deficient in many nutrients necessary for healthy skin. Malnourished skin
can create problems like dry, flaky skin, oily skin, dark circles under the eyes, loss of luster and skin tone,
skin rashes and other chronic skin conditions. Vitamin C creams will moisturize the skin and give it a silky feeling. Hyaluronic acid can be used
topically to hydrate the skin. A mixture of human growth factors and L.E.D. light (infrared) will stimulate
collaged production and circulation. Supplements can help, as can topical applications designed to
nourish the skin. Nutrients essential for healthy skin includes a proper balance of essential fatty acids,
trace minerals (especially silica), fat soluble vitamins and collagen. Proper hydration (adequate amounts
of pure water) is also essential to healthy skin. It is possible to keep your skin looking youthful with proper attention. A medically trained aesthetician
can give you more specific advice on the right nutrients, therapies and topical
applications for your unique skin concerns

Is the Economy Getting Better?
Is the economy recovering? Let's see what the experts say:--We've seen a small increase in the number of hours worked per week.--Champagne sales are up.--Companies are spending a bit more on assets such as computers. --There are more job listings, and fewer people are taking a second job.--There's more traffic on the road as more people are going to work and shopping.On a personal level, you can do your own test of the economy in your area in the grocery store by looking in the shopping carts of other people. Do you see only the basics, all store brands? Are there any
snacks? Any beer or wine? Is there a good beef roast, steak or chicken parts instead of whole chickens?Check the heels of the shoes of those in front of you in lines. Are the heels run down? Are the shoes new?How many cars are
in the parking lots of local restaurants on weekends?When the economy is better, people feel safer about spending a bit more.Not that this should change your own money-handling methods. While you might see more new cars on the road or your neighbors having their house painted or bottles of expensive wine in shopping carts, keep on track with your own spending plan. While we see signs of recovery, it's uneven, and it's not all across the board. It's not completely over. We're heading in the right direction, though, as seen with large and small indications, but we're not there yet.For one more year: Keep saving, and keep your credit balances low or paid off. Keep shopping at thrift stores,
especially for kids clothes and toys. Change your own oil, if you haven't been. Stick to your budget and have pizza and movie night at home. Don't open new lines of credit. Conserve on heating and cooling. Keep up with yard and house maintenance so repairs don't cost you more later.Aim for having one year of expenses in the bank. Yes, that's a lot, but many people have been out of work for longer than that. Given our recent experiences, perhaps you'll even decide to stick long term with some of the lifestyle changes you've made.
