Our Envious Backyard Pond is Truly Superior ● If your neighbor had plenty of water but you hadn’t enough to keep your family, your livestock and your crops alive, would you fight for it? Would you go to war? Lots of people – from multi-degreed behavioralpsychologists to barroom philosophers – believe you would.● According to water experts at the United Nations, more than 45 percentof the world’s populations – more than 3 billion people – are already in need of more clean water. They cite research from The World Bank thatshows that more than 80 countries now have water shortages that threatentheir health and economies.● It used to take precise measurements to document the tiny shifts inthe size of glaciers, the world’s ultimate fresh-water storage areas. Now tourists making repeat visits to Alaska, the Andes or even Glacier National Park in Montana can just look at photos they took last year and see howrapidly they’re melting.
Big Daddy1. Lake Superior is, by surface area, the world’s largest freshwater lake.2. The surface area (31,700 square miles is greater than the combinedareas of Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and NewHampshire. 3. It contains as much water as all the other Great Lakes combined, even throwing in two extra Lake Eries and contains 10% of all the earth’s fresh surface water. (3,000,000,000,000,000--or 3 quadrillion gallons) enoughto flood all of North and South America to a depth of one foot.4.. The deepest point in Lake Superior is 1,300 feet below the surface.5. Over 300 streams and rivers empty into Lake Superior.6. If the shoreline were straightened out, it could connect Duluth and the Bahama Islands.7. Lake Superior is easily the cleanest and clearest of the Great Lakes withvisibility in places reaching 100 feet.
Where will the water go? Lake Superior, has dropped to its lowest level in 81 years, is 20 inches below average and a foot lower than just a year ago. The droppinglevels have had serious environmental and economic consequences.Wetlands have dried up. Power plants run at half capacity. Cargo ships carry partial loads. Boaters struggle to find a place to dock.The changes can be seen all along the 2,800-mile shore of Lake Superior.The water has receded, sometimes 50 feet or more, from its normal shoreline. Superior isn’t the only prominent North American lake orreservoir at a severely low level. Lake Mead near Las Vegas and Lake Powell on the Utah-Arizona border are about half full. Florida’s Lake Okeechobee recently set a record low. Researchers at the University of Minnesota and elsewhere studywhether Lake Superior’s low water levels are a result of global warming.The average water temperature of Lake Superior has risen 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit since 1979. “It’s been a long time since we’ve been this low, but it has happened,” says Tim Calappi, a hydraulic engineer for the Army Corps of Engineers, which tracks water levels. “We still think thisis within the range of what’s normal, but we have to wait and see.” A drought and warm weather are the immediate cause of the drop in water levels. In the past year, precipitation was 6 inches less than the average of 31 inches. Many people living near Lake Superior don’t buy drought or warm weather as the reasons for dropping water levels — a conspiracy theory is more popular. They say Lake Superior was drained through the St. Mary’s River to raise the levels of Lake Huron and LakeMichigan. “It’s like the tide went out and didn’t come back,” says DanAlexander, a commercial fisherman in Baraga. “We know what it is. They drained the lake.” The water is so low he had to find a new place to dock his 38-foot boat. Scott Brossart, an engineer for the Army Corps in Duluth, says it’s a myth that the Army Corps drains Lake Superior to help other lakes with presumably more powerful benefactors. He says the amount of water that flows out of Lake Superior is established by an international agreement with Canada. The water flow is regulated by how much wateris permitted to pass through hydroelectric plants on the St. Mary’s River,which connects Lake Superior and Lake Huron and, indirectly, LakeMichigan. Away from shore, Lake Superior is doing fine. A 19-inch dropdoesn’t make a big difference in a lake that is 1,330 feet at its deepest.The fishing has never been better. Fishermen are catching huge amounts of trout and whitefish. For now, they’re waiting, like everyone else, for thewater to rise.

• It’s likely that nearly every child in America has at some time received a ball-shaped lollipop from the bank teller. These little pops, known as Dum
Dums, have been around since 1924 when they were introduced by the Akron Candy Company. Sales manager I.C. Bahr named the pop, fi guring Dum Dum was a word any child could say. Seven original fl avors were introduced, with many added and deleted over the years, including the famous Mystery Flavor. The Mystery Flavor changes regularly since it is a blend of the tail end of one batch and the beginning of the next, whatever they may be. • Remember Chuckles? These sugar-coated jelly candies have been around since 1921, when a Chicago marshmallow manufacturer introduced them. The fi ve-fl avored strip of candies was widely advertised with the slogan “5 fl avors – 5 cents.” • Chick-O-Sticks and Chicken Bones were pretty much the same thing. Introduced in 1938 as Chicken Bones, this was a honeycombed candy fi lled with peanut butter and rolled in toasted coconut. In 1955, it was discovered that another company already owned the name, and the change was made to Chick-O-Sticks.• There’s nothing like pouring straight sugar down your throat, which is what we did with Pixy Stix, a powdered sugar packaged in a drinking straw. It started out as a drink mix in the late 1940s called Frutol, but since kids seemed to prefer the straight powder, Pixy Stix made their debut in 1952. • The chocolate-covered, crunchy peanut butter bar 5th Avenue was the 1938 brainstorm of William Luden, who is more famous as the creator of Luden’s cough drops. • Back in the 1950s when James Dean and Marlon Brando looked cool with their cigarettes rolled up in their T-shirt sleeves, candy cigarettes were all the rage with kids. It seems that candy makers actually worked with the tobacco companies to help attract young smokers! Although the original candy cigs with their “lit” red tip are long gone, they are now reproduced but, we hope, with a different goal. Some folks who have quit smoking pass out packs to friends on the anniversary of their last cigarette. • Those little hollow tubes of black licorice coated with pastel-colored candy were known as Snaps. They appeared at candy counters for the fi rst time around 1930 and can still be found at specialty candy shops. You’ll have a little more trouble fi nding wax lips, introduced in the early 1900s, which could be chewed into a waxy, cherry-fl avored gum. If you didn’t like the
lips, vampire fangs and moustaches were also available.• The Pittsburgh-based D.L. Clark Company had a hit in 1917 with a chocolate-covered honeycomb of ground, roasted peanuts, simply called Clark Bar. This confection became so popular with U.S. troops stationed overseas in World War I, it became a giant sensation back at home as well. The same company produced the Zagnut candy bar beginning in 1930, a crunchy peanut butter bar covered in toasted coconut. The word “zigzag” became popular in the 1930s, and it’s believed that’s where the name originated. • Many children spent their allowance on the caramel Slo Poke suckers, because according to the familiar jingle, “Get yourself a Slo Poke, it lasts all day!” If you were a chocolate fan, you could purchase the similar Black Cow. • How about our preferred chewing gums? Three of our old favorites, Black Jack, Beemans and Clove were discontinued years ago, but the Cadbury Adams Company, which owns the formulas, cooks up a batch of each every couple of years. The licorice-fl avored Black Jack gum was the fi rst fl avored gum in America. Back in the late 1800s, an Ohio physician Dr. Edward E. Beeman marketed a gum of pepsin powder and chicle, designed to aid digestion. Legendary test pilot Chuck Yeager made Beemans gum famous by chewing a stick before every fl ight for good luck. In fact, the antacid qualities of pepsin made the gum popular with pilots for reducing stomach agitation in fl ight. Clove gum was fi rst manufactured in 1914 by Thomas Adams. Legend has it that Clove grew in popularity during Prohibition because its strong smell masked the odor of illegal alcohol on the breath. The Beech Nut Company launched Fruit Stripe gum in the 1960s with a zebra as its “spokesman,” packaging it in zebra-striped wrappers. It was the only gum with stripes, which were added on after the gum was made. The down side of Fruit Stripe was that it lost its fl avor very quickly, and now that it has been re-introduced, the complaint is the same — It’s pretty much fl avorless in just over fi ve minutes. • Chicago’s Williamson Candy Store produced and sold chocolate back around 1920. One of their young customers hung around the establishment so much, before long the employees were asking him to do little odd jobs, “Oh, Henry, could you do this?” and “Oh, Henry, will you bring me that?” Soon after, their newest confection was named the Oh Henry bar.
Grand Statements from GrandkidsGrand Statements from Grandkids● My young grandson called the other day to wish me Happy Birthday. He asked me how old I was, and I told him, 80. My grandson was quiet for a moment, and then he asked, "Did you start at 1?"
● After putting her grandchildren to bed, a grandmother changed into old slacks and a droopy blouse and proceeded to wash her hair. As she heard the children getting more and more rambunctious, her patience grew thin. Finally, she threw a towel around her head and stormed into their room, putting them back to bed with stern warnings. As she left the room, she heard the three-year-old say with a trembling voice,"Who was THAT?"
● When my grandson asked me how old I was, I teasingly replied, "I'm not sure." "Look in your underwear, Grandpa," he advised "Mine says I'm 4 to 6."

■ On Oct. 1, 1920, Scientifi c American magazine reports that the rapidly developing medium of radio soon would be used to broadcast music:
“Experimental concerts are at present being conducted every Friday evening from 8:30 to 11:00 by the Radio Laboratory of the Bureau of Standards.”
■ On Oct. 4, 1944, Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower distributes to his combat units a report by the U.S. Surgeon General that reveals the hazards of prolonged exposure to combat. Based on this evaluation, American commanders judged that the average soldier could last about 200 days in combat before suffering serious psychiatric damage.
■ On Oct. 2, 1968, St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Bob Gibson strikes out 17 Detroit Tigers in the fi rst game of the World Series, breaking Sandy Koufax’s record for the most strikeouts in a Series game.
■ On Oct. 7, 1975, a New York State Supreme Court judge reverses a deportation order for John Lennon, allowing him to remain legally in the U.S. The judge wrote that “The courts will not condone selective deportation based upon secret political grounds.” An
FBI investigation of Lennon had turned up no evidence of involvement in illegal activities.
■ On Oct. 3, 1995, Heisman Trophy winner O.J. Simpson is acquitted of the double murder of his estranged wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, despite a DNA match, a wound on Simpson’s hand, the recent purchase of a “Stiletto” knife and matching shoeprints at the scene.
■ On Oct. 13, 1775, the Continental Congress authorizes construction and administration of the fi rst American naval force. Esek Hopkins was appointed the fi rst commander-in-chief of the Continental Navy. His fi rst fl eet consisted of seven ships: two 24-gun frigates, two 14-gun brigs and three schooners.
■ On Oct. 12, 1786, a lovesick Thomas Jefferson composes the fi rst of many romantic letters to a married woman named Maria Cosway. In 1789, his letters grew less frequent. She continued to write to him and vented her frustration at his growing aloofness. After her husband died, Cosway moved to a village in Italy to open a convent school for girls.
■ On Oct. 11, 1793, the death toll from a yellow fever epidemic in Philadelphia hits 100. By the time it ended,
5,000 people were dead. A vaccine prevents yellow fever in much of the world, though 20,000 people still die every year from the disease.
■ On Oct. 14, 1944, German Gen. Erwin Rommel, nicknamed “the Desert Fox,” is given the option of facing a public trial for treason, as a co-conspirator in the plot to assassinate Adolf Hitler, or taking cyanide. He chose the latter. The German government gave Rommel a state funeral. His death was attributed to war wounds.
■ On Oct. 8, 1956, New York Yankees right-hander Don Larsen pitches the fi rst no-hitter in the history of the World Series. Even better, it was a perfect game -- that is, there were no runs, no hits and no errors, and no batter reached fi rst base.
■ On Oct. 9, 1992, a 28-pound bowling-ball-sized meteorite lands on an orange 1980 Chevy Malibu in Peekskill, N.Y. Scientists have determined that it came from the inner edge of the main asteroid belt in space, between Jupiter and Mars.

▲ To keep track of rolls of tape or other rolled items in your shop, hang a length of chain from two “S” hooks on your pegboard. They will be readily accessible, and
you can tear off what you need.
▲ “Here’s a fun idea for place cards at Thanksgiving (coming up in Canada): Scan in and print out a photo of each guest as a child. Laminate it and attach it to a pretty piece of ribbon with a glue gun. Use the ribbon to tie up a napkin and/or utensils. Guests will have a good time trying to guess who’s who and reminiscing about days gone by.” -- P.D. in Ontario, Canada
▲ Two tips for sewing on buttons: First, for pants buttons, use unwaxed dental fl oss. It’s incredibly strong and can take a lot of abuse. Second, slip a pin between the button and the fabric before sewing on. When you’re fi nished,
remove the pin. The button now has some room behind it, and it will last longer.
▲ “This is a tip for us singletons. I love whipped topping on my hot chocolate, but it doesn’t always last in my fridge. I buy a tub of it, and spoon mug-size dollops on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. When the sheet is full, I freeze them. They can be peeled off easily and slipped in a container or plastic bag. When I make my hot chocolate, I plop in one straight from the freezer. It takes only minutes to soften and melt. And it’s delicious!” -- F.D. in Michigan
▲ When making pastry, start with cold ingredients; when making cakes and cookies, the ingredients should be room temperature. If you stick with this rule, you’ll have lovely, fl aky pastry and warm, fl uffy cake!
▲ Want to know the secret to great biscuits? Handle the dough gently. The more you mess with it, the tougher the biscuits. If you use a cutter, dip it in water for each press,
and DON’T twist: You’ll create a seal on the edges that will hinder the biscuit from rising, making it denser.
▲ “Got a dome on your cake? Measure your ingredients well. Use a pan that is big enough. And if all else fails, use a thermometer to gauge whether your oven is too hot. These things more than any others will make a cake pop up in the center.” -- E.A. in Mississippi
▲ Self-rising fl our or all-purpose? There’s actually a pretty easy way to tell which is which. Self-rising fl our has baking soda added to it, which tastes salty. If you’re facing a canister of fl our and the recipe calls for all-purpose, give it a taste. If it’s self-rising, omit any baking soda added to your recipe.

Even though fresh water is continually draining into the Dead Sea, it is nearly 10 times as salty as the oceans and twice as salty as Utah’s Great Salt Lake. • One of the world’s most unusual places, the Dead Sea is also called the Salt Sea. Located in the Middle East, it is bordered by Jordan to the east and Israel and the West Bank to the west. The Hebrew name for the Dead Sea is Yam ha Maved, which actually means “killer sea.” • The Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth, over 1,312 feet (400 m) below sea level. At its deepest part, it is over 2,300 feet (701 m) below sea level. The Dead Sea is 42 miles (67 km) long and 11 miles (18 km) wide at its widest point. • The main tributary into the sea is the Jordan River. The Dead Sea does not empty out anywhere — It is endorheic, which means it has no outlet besides evaporation. It is totally landlocked, and the deeper areas are the saltiest. There is an estimated 1.9 billion tons of potassium chloride salt in the Dead Sea that are harvested by using a system of evaporation ponds. • The Dead Sea has a salinity reading of 33.7 percent, meaning nearly 35 percent of the water is dissolved salts. Ocean water is 3.5 percent dissolved salts.• Due to the high salinity of the Dead Sea, no fi sh or any kind of swimming, squirming creature lives in or near the water. Fish accidentally swimming into the waters from one of the several freshwater streams that feed the Sea are killed instantly, their bodies quickly coated with a preserving layer of salt crystals and then tossed onto shore by the wind and waves. • There are, however, several species of bacteria and one species of algae that are adapted to harsh life in the Dead Sea. White salt crystals cover everything on the shore. And this is no ordinary table salt; the salts found in the Dead Sea are mineral salts — mostly chloride salts of magnesium, sodium, potassium
and bromine — just like you fi nd in the oceans of the world, only in extreme concentrations. • The leading attraction at the Dead Sea is the warm, soothing, super-salty water. This water has attracted visitors since ancient times, including King Herod the Great and the beautiful Egyptian Queen, Cleopatra. • Due to the high salinity, water in the Dead Sea is extremely buoyant — A person can fl oat effortlessly on his or her back and not have to expend energy treading water. Also, the high salt content and warm temperature of the water provide therapy for ailments such as rheumatism, gynecological diseases and bronchial conditions. • Dead Sea Works, Ltd. (DSW) is a company dedicated to harvesting minerals from the waters of the Dead Sea. DSW is located on the southwest side of the Sea and employs 1,600 people. • Potash is the most valuable of the minerals extracted today and is used in the manufacture of fertilizer. Other minerals extracted are used in making products such as potassium chloride salt, industrial salts, de-icers, bath salts, table salt and raw materials for the cosmetic industry.
Usually when thinking of “wilderness,” we have visions of thick green forests with tall trees, but Everglades National Park is a bit different. It is the largest wilderness area in the United States east of the Mississippi River. • Everglades National Park, established in 1947, protects over 1.5 million acres of land and water. It is the third largest national park in the continental United States, behind Yellowstone (2nd) and Death Valley (1st). • Marjorie Stoneman Douglas came up with the phrase “river of grass” in a publication that she authored in 1947. “The Everglades: River of Grass” was a guide that raised awareness of the Everglades and helped the public to recognize that the area was not just the “proverbial swamp” that many considered it to be. It technically is a river, fl owing southwest through Florida at the slow pace of about a quarter mile per day. She was a leader in promoting the Everglades to national park status. Twenty-two years later, she helped to found the “Friends of the Everglades” conservation organization.• The elevation in the Everglades ranges from sea level to 20 feet (6 m) above sea level. The top spot is on a shell mound made by Native Americans located on the Gulf Coast side of the park. • The original size of the Everglades was much larger than the area protected by the National Park Service today. Years ago it spanned form Lake Okeechobee in central Florida all the way south to Florida Bay. Only 25 percent of the historic Everglades is in the park. • There are 15 endangered species within the park boundaries. Sea turtles, crocodiles and West Indian Manatees are among the protected animals.• Deeply interwoven in the park are towering palm trees, endless marshes, tropical fauna, dense mangrove stands, alligator holes and much more. All of these are important in maintaining the integrity of the Everglades. • The mangrove forests cover an estimated 469,000 acres (189798 ha) in the state of Florida, with much of that within the protected Everglades. Mangrove roots
and branches are essential for the marine animals of the region. The roots provide protection for fi sh, crustaceans and shellfi sh to raise their young. The branches are nesting areas for many beautiful coastal birds such as roseate spoonbills and brown pelicans. • Everglades National Park is a wonderful place to explore, but a knowledgeable guide is a great person to have along for unfamiliar tourists. As reported in recent years, there are not only animals that have been there for centuries that can be dangerous, but there are also some invasive species that are wreaking havoc on the area. • For years there have been stories of people spotting Burmese pythons in the Everglades. The largest snake species on earth, these giant pythons are not only living in the park, they’re also breeding and spreading to the surrounding environs of south Florida. Since 2002, more than 1,800 pythons have been removed from the park and surrounding areas. • For the health of the Everglades and all of south Florida, it is imperative that invasive species like pythons, which have been accidentally or intentionallyreleased into the wild, be controlled.

The Reluctant PsychicFall, the time of year when psychics and mediums become very popular. People’s minds turn to ghosts and the paranormal and my phone seems to ring non-stop with people wanting to book readings or ask me questions about what I do.
I suspect that a big reason for this is the media. Every time I turn on the television there is a new show about the paranormal, or on the radio there is yet another psychic giving readings over the air.
Some of the television shows that are 100% fi ction, but aside from this I think all the interest in paranormal is a healthy and mind expanding thing. For too long people have chosen to ignore, or make fun of those who believed in other worldly existence. I am now encouraged to see people taking an interest in things that can’t necessarily be seen nor heard, even if it’s only for the entertainment.
My hope is that the interest which is so prevalent during October and early November will extend to the entire year. In my life I’ve experienced a lot of odd things. It’s not uncommon for me to step into a freezing cold room or walk through a wall of something only I can smell.
A week ago I stepped into my bedroom late at night and was nearly overcome by a very unpleasant smell. It lasted for about 10 seconds and then all traces of it were gone. It took me a week to fi gure out the message… and it had nothing to do with Halloween.
If you are willing to slow down and pay attention, you just might hear that whisper beside you, or that knock on the door when no one is there. I have no doubt that you’ve briefl y smelled things that no one else smells. Our loved ones on the other side never tire of attempting to get our attention....all year long.
Enjoy Halloween for what it is. A celebration of the fall harvest and one last time to be outside playing tricks on each other before the snow buries us for the winter. In my case, lots of chocolate. Thank you for your interest and attention. If you’d like to have a reading, please contact me. Till next time, stay in touch with yourself, your life, and with those loved ones who have moved on.

Ingredients:–Shredded skinless boneless Chicken breast:1 pound Can use a roaster or canned chicken breast –Stock, Chicken: 8 cupsMake your own or use Prepared.–Juice of 3 limes: – 1 cup Tomato juice: – 1/2 cups Chopped Red bell pepper: – (1) Chopped and cleaned Jalapeno: – 1/4 cups Chopped cilantro: – 4 tsp Worcestershire sauce: – :(3)Chopped green onions –:1/2 cups Uncooked Rice– (1) Per bowl, Avocados from Mexico: – 1 cup Shredded Mexican Cheese: – 1 tsp Minced Garlic:. – 1/2tsp Ground black pepper: –Salt to Taste –Tortilla Strips (Red and Blue If possible)Yield: (4 servings)
Directions: In a large soup pot, simmer the chicken stock, tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce, and lime juices with the jalapeno, cilantro for 45 minutes.While simmering; grill the chicken until cooked all of the way through, then shred (optional–use canned chicken breast.) Strain simmered stock mixture and add green onion, chilies, red bell pepper, rice, corn, garlic to the remaining strained stock and simmer for 20 minutes. The mixture will have the consistency of a soupy stew.Mash up the avocados and then pipe them on top of the stew to create a “Gopher Gut” look, add a teeny bit of lime juice if not serving immediately to keep avocado from turning brown. Artfully, place the tortilla strips and shredded cheese on top of the “Guts” .
