TIDBITS® INVITES YOU TO

EAT BREAKFAST!by Patricia L. Cook

This Tidbits examines breakfast around the world. Many studies say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but when it comes to what people think should be on the breakfast table, there are quite a few differences.• The word breakfast means “to break the fast,”

meaning to eat again after hours of sleep and no food. Numerous nutritional studies have shown that people who skip breakfast are more likely to have problems with metabolism, weight and concentration.

• The first use of the word “breakfast” was in the 15th century when it was likely that porridge or bread was eaten. The first appearance in print that “breakfast is the most important meal of the day,” was not from a medical professional or scientist; it was in the book “Metamorphosis” by German writer Franz Kafka in 1915.

• The typical full breakfast in the United States and Canada is based on the “full English breakfast,” although in many households this type of breakfast is now more likely to be reserved for weekends and holidays. When more people lived on farms and got up early for manual labor, a large breakfast was common. Now, it is not unusual to start the day with simply cereal or toast along with milk, juice and/or coffee.

Q: What happens if you eat yeast and shoe polish for breakfast?

A: You’ll rise and shine!

Mental Health Help From the VADepression. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Substance abuse. Thoughts of suicide. Trauma from sexual assault. Anxiety. If

you’re a veteran with any of those mental-health struggles, there is help via the

Department of Veterans Affairs.You can take a big step forward in getting

help for yourself or a veteran family member by going to the VA’s website, www.mentalhealth.va.gov. Click on:

--Screening tools: You’ll find screening tests for depression, PTSD and substance abuse,

including drugs and alcohol.--Where to get help: Click on the green HELP graphic, and you’ll find tabs for

getting help right now (if you are in crisis, call 1-800-273-8255 and press “1”),

program locators and treatment info. Click on the map graphic to find the nearest VA

facility. Use the drop-down menu to find the type of facility you need. There is a special

PTSD link on the left side of the screen.--If you’re having suicidal thoughts (or if there is a veteran you’re worried about): If you can get to a computer, consider

checking in with the Veterans Crisis Online chat. Someone is there 24 hours a day. Go

to www.mentalhealth.va.gov and click Suicide Prevention on the left side of the screen. (Or go to http://veteranscrisisline.net/) You also can send a text message to 838255. You don’t have to be enrolled in

VA health care to get help. Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric K.

Shinseki recently announced that the VA would be adding 1,600 more mental-

health clinicians -- nurses, psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists -- plus 300

more support staff. The need is great -- 1.3 million veterans were helped with mental-health services last year -- and that number

will only increase.If you need help, it’s there. Don’t wait. Just

take the first step.

• On May 22, 1455, the battle of England’s War of the Roses begins in St. Albans, 20 miles northwest of London. The forces of House of York, whose badge was a white rose, defeated the red-rose House of Lancaster. Both families claimed the throne, and the war would stretch on for 30 years.

• On May 23, 1701, at London’s Execution Dock, British privateer William Kidd, popularly known as Captain Kidd, is hanged for piracy and murder after capturing a boat that was loaded with gold, jewels, silk, sugar and guns. A colorful legend grew up around the story of Kidd, including reports of lost buried treasure.

• On May 21, 1881, in Washington, D.C., humanitarians Clara Barton and Adolphus Solomons found the American National Red Cross, an organization established to provide humanitarian aid to victims of wars and natural disasters.

• On May 26, 1897, horror writer Bram Stoker’s classic vampire tale, “Dracula,” is first offered for sale in London. Through fictional journal entries and letters written by the novel’s principal characters, “Dracula” tells the story of a Transylvanian vampire and his English victims.

• On May 24, 1917, after losing 373 Allied and neutral ships in one month because of attacks by German U-boat submarines, the British Royal Navy introduces a convoy system, whereby all merchant ships crossing the Atlantic Ocean would travel in groups under the protection of the British navy.

Keep Driving LongerFew of us want to even contemplate giving

up driving, but we should. We should think long and hard because there are steps we can take to

help us keep driving longer.The American Automobile Association

has put together a website full of valuable information for us: www.seniordriving.aaa.

com.There you’ll learn how to:

--Evaluate your driving ability: a 15-question self-rating tool, interactive driving evaluation and links to getting a professional assessment.

--Understand mind and body changes: As we age, our vision and hearing might not be as good as they once were. The medications we take can affect us, too. Our reaction times can slow, but there are ways to learn to overcome

that. --Improving driving skills: Everyday driving

can become challenging for us as we age, and unexpected situations can be downright dangerous. Click on the sections with tips for handling both everyday and unexpected situations on the road. Don’t miss the link to driver-improvement courses, especially the AAA’s Senior Defensive Driving Program. You

can take the class online from home!--Maintaining mobility and independence:

One of the best things we can do to keep driving longer is to stay physically and mentally fit. Click on the physical fitness techniques link. AAA has a series of stretches and exercises designed to improve neck, shoulder, trunk, back and overall flexibility. When you consider all the twisting and turning involved in getting in and out of the car and bending to put groceries in the trunk, it makes sense that we’ll do better

if we stay limber. If you don’t have a computer, have a friend

print out the brochures under Tools & Additional Resources.

Kyle’s Awesome Win

What a di� erence a victory makes.Kyle Busch arrived at Richmond Interna-

tional Raceway, where he won in the past three springs, ranked 13th in the Sprint Cup points.

He had placed 36th, 11th and 10th in the previ-ous three races.

Guess what? Busch won again. He moved up to 11th in the standings. � e Capital City 400 was the 24th victory of his career. His older brother,

Kurt, even won the Nationwide Series race a day earlier driving a Toyota Kyle owned.

Kyle, who turned 27 on Wednesday, wasn’t exaggerating when he said, “It was an awesome

victory overall.”Crew chief Dave Rogers said, “I think the key to the game was Kyle kept us in it all race. He

never got frustrated or discouraged.”“Kyle just stayed real patient, never worried about things, kept his poise, and things just worked out right for us in the end,” added

owner Joe Gibbs.Another important factor was Busch’s pit crew, which managed to get his No. 18 Camry out of the pits ahead of Tony Stewart’s Impala in its

� nal stop.“Once I got out front, I knew I had 10 laps,”

Busch said. “I could abuse the heck out of that thing and drive it for all it was worth, and

didn’t have to save any tires.”It was a great spot for Kyle Busch to be in. To borrow the cliche o� en used by Motor Racing

Network’s Barney Hall, he “drove the wheels o� that car.”

“In evaluating our program, we’ve de� nitely had some ups and downs,” Busch said. “We

haven’t run to the competitiveness we want to. We’re not out there leading all the laps, and

running up front, and doing what (point leader Greg) Bi� e has been able to do or Martin

Truex has been able to do, or some of those guys.

In addition to his fourth straight springtime victory in Richmond, Kyle also equaled his

older brother’s total of career victories.“It’s neat that we’re still racing around here

in Cup,” Kyle said, “and hopefully with many more wins that we can both achieve.”

Contractor FraudQ: I’d like to hire a contractor to make some repairs to my garage, but I hear a lot of stories these days about handymen who overcharge, don’t do the work promised or otherwise cheat customers. How can I make sure I get what I pay for?

-- Clarence T., Philadelphia

A: There are several things you can do to make sure a contractor is legitimate, that the work will be done on time and to your satisfaction, and that unpleasant surprises won’t crop up later. Here are a few tips to

keep in mind:--Take your time deciding: Unless the repair is an emergency, you have the luxury of getting more than one estimate from more than one contractor. Get at

least three quotes before deciding.--Check with the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints were lodged against the contractor and how the contractor responded to those complaints.--Ask the contractor if you can contact

past customers about his work.--Ask for the contractor’s license, as well as proof of workers compensation

insurance.--Get everything in writing: A statement of when the work will begin and end, how much materials will cost and what materials will be used, how much labor is involved and what that will cost, whether permits will be required, and whether the

work must meet building codes.--Do not allow work to begin until you have signed a contract you both agree on.

--Never pay in advance, and do not pay in cash: write a check or use a credit card

instead.--Insist on inspecting all work yourself (or have a representative inspect it for you)

before providing the final payment.

If a problem crops up during or after the repair job, try to resolve the issue with the contractor first. Reputable contractors will try to make it right. If you can’t resolve the problem or can’t find the contractor, you can lodge a complaint with the BBB or contact your state or city’s consumer

protection department.

HOME TIP: Word of mouth is still the best way to find a good contractor. Ask neighbors, family and friends if there’s a

contractor they can recommend.

Bobcat Fever Is Cat Killer

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I recently began hearing reports

about something called “bobcat fever,” which affects cats. What

is it, and how can I keep my cat safe? -- Darlene G., Kansas

City, Mo.

DEAR DARLENE: Bobcat fever, scientifically known as “cytauxzoonosis,” is a serious illness that has spread across the United States in recent

years. It affects cats -- not only domesticated cats, but wildcats

and even tigers -- and has a high mortality rate. It does not

affect dogs.

Bobcat fever is spread through bites from infected ticks: A

tick first bites and sucks blood from an already-infected cat,

drops off then bites and infects another cat.

Leah Cohn, a University of Missouri veterinarian, said

healthy outdoor cats are most at risk. “The disease acts very quickly and can kill a cat less than a week after it begins to

show signs of being sick, so it is important to get treatment from a veterinarian as soon as the cat

appears ill.”How can you keep your cat

safe? Keep it indoors. If your cat must be outdoors, make

sure it is treated regularly for fleas and ticks or wears a flea/tick collar. If your cat shows

signs of illness -- sluggishness and/or refusal to eat -- or if

you discover a tick on its fur or skin, contact your

veterinarian immediately.Cohn recently developed a more effective treatment for

bobcat fever, which increased the survival rate for cats

affected by this illness from less than 25 percent to nearly 60 percent. She also is doing research toward a vaccine for bobcat fever. In the meantime, prevention is the best medicine

for this disease.
