TIDBITS® SENDS BIRTHDAY WISHES TO

MAY BABIESby Kathy Wolfe

Tidbits is taking a look at some familiar folks born during the month of May. Follow along as we take a brief glimpse into their lives.

• Sally Ride, the first American woman to go up in space, saw an ad in the newspaper seeking applicants for the space program and along with 8,000 others, answered the inquiry. At age 28, this young woman with a Ph.D. in physics joined NASA. In 1983, her first memorable flight was taken aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger. A second flight followed in 1984, and she was preparing for her third when the Challenger disaster occurred. She left NASA in 1987 and is currently on leave from her professorship of physics at the University of California and directorship of the California Space Institute.

• May baby Priscilla Beaulieu (born Priscilla Wagner) was just 14 years old in 1959 when she was introduced to Elvis Presley in Germany. Her stepfather, a U.S. Air Force officer, was stationed there, as was Presley, and a young Air Force recruit introduced the pair.

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 May 19, 1836, during a raid, Comanche, Kiowa and Caddo Indians in Texas kidnap 9-year-old Cynthia Ann Parker and kill her family. Adopted into the Comanche tribe, she lived a happy life, marrying a warrior and having three children, until Texas Rangers recaptured her in 1860. They forced her to return to live again among Anglo-Americans after killing her husband.

• On May 16, 1849, the New York City Board of Health finally is able to establish a hospital to

deal with a cholera epidemic that, before it ends, kills more than 5,000 people. The disease spread when boat passengers escaped from a mandatory quarantine.

• On May 18, 1861, an obscure California newspaper relates how first lady Mary Todd Lincoln took it upon herself to appoint Mr. W.S. Wood as superintendent of Public Buildings. The article suggested that Mrs. Lincoln had been smitten with Mr. Wood's handsome features, luxuriant whiskers and graceful carriage.

• On May 20, 1873, Levi Strauss secures the necessary patents for canvas pants with copper rivets to reinforce the stress points. Unable to sell a large supply of canvas in the California mining camps, Strauss had hit on the idea of using the durable material to make work pants for miners.

• On May 17, 1943, the crew of the Memphis Belle, one of a group of American bombers based in

Britain, becomes the first B-17 crew to complete 25 missions over Europe. A fictional film about the B-17, called "Memphis Belle," was released in 1990.

• On May 21, 1955, unknown singer Chuck Berry paid his first visit to a recording studio and cut "Maybellene." The song became a No. 1 R&B hit and a No. 5 pop hit. It helped that DJ Alan Freed played the record for two hours straight during his WINS radio show.

• On May 22, 1969, legendary actor Paul Newman makes his onscreen racing debut in the action-drama film "Winning." Newman played Frank Capua, a struggling race car driver who must turn around his fortunes by winning the biggest race of them all -- the Indianapolis 500.

MAY BABIES (continued):• You may remember South African runner

Zola Budd who, at age 17, broke the women’s 5000 meter world record. She was especially noted for the fact that she ran barefoot. While competing at the 1984 Olympics in the 3000-meter race, Budd had three collisions with U.S. runner Mary Decker, with Decker falling, injuring her hip and withdrawing from the race. An international athletic jury found Budd innocent of any wrongdoing in the incident.

• Not too many music fans are familiar with the name Eithne Patricia Ní Bhraonáin, but millions have heard the music of Enya. Enya Brennan is an Anglicized approximation of how this Irish singer’s name is pronounced in her native Donegal dialect. As of 2009, her album sales stood at over 70 million. This multi-talented musician performs all the instruments and vocals in the majority of her songs and has sung in 10 different languages in her recordings. Her vocals are layered up to 80 times during recording to achieve her distinctive sound. If you’ve seen the movie “Fellowship of the Ring,” you’ve heard her composition “May It Be,” the film’s theme, a song for which she received an Oscar nomination. She is Ireland’s second-biggest musical artist.

• If Enya is No. 2 in Ireland, who’s number one? That honor belongs to another May baby, Paul David Hewson, better known as Bono. Rolling Stone has ranked him as the 32nd greatest singer of all time, and his band U2 was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005. Back in 1978, while still in high school, Hewson answered a note on the school bulletin board seeking musicians for a rock band that was written by drummer Larry Mullin, and U2 was born.

MAY BABIES (continued): • As to why he is rarely seen without sunglasses,

Bono states that his eyes are very sensitive to light and swell up and turn red. But that’s not the whole story. In his words: “It’s part vanity, it’s part privacy and part sensitivity.”

. • Who hasn’t heard Bing Crosby croon “White Christmas” in his distinctive bass-baritone voice? Born in May, 1903, Crosby was a descendant of Mayflower passenger and Pilgrim spiritual leader William Brewster. At age six, Harry Lillis Crosby became a fan of “The Bingville Bugle,” a column in the Sunday edition of Spokane, Washington’s Spokesman-Review. A 15-year-old neighbor and fellow fan began calling him Bing and the nickname stuck. Crosby had his first No. 1 hit at age 25. His success continued as 10 of 1931’s top 50 songs featured his voice, either solo or with others. He made 1,700 recordings, and 383 made the Top 30, and 41 were No. 1 on the charts. Known as an avid golfer, he was also part owner of baseball’s Pittsburgh Pirates.

• Little did Ken Jennings know when he stepped onto the set of the game show “Jeopardy!” on June 2, 2004, that he would be appearing in 75 episodes and set a record for the longest winning streak on the popular program. During his tenure as champion, the Utah software engineer earned $2,520,700, plus $2,000 for second place on the day of his defeat and another $500,000 prize during the program’s Ultimate Tournament of Champions. Barbara Walters featured Jennings on her 2004 ABC News Special “The Ten Most Fascinating People of 2004.” In addition, Jennings chronicled his success in a 2006 book “Brainiac: Adventures in the Curious, Competitive, Compulsive World of Trivia Buffs.”

10 REASONSWhy Isagenix® is Your Anti-Aging Solution1. SLOW AGING FROM THE INSIDE OUTIsagenix Nutritional Cleansing and Replenishing™ products help eliminate harmful toxins and impurities from the body that can accelerate the aging process. These products also replenish the body with crucial nutrients for optimal health. The Rejuvity and other anti-aging products also address the need for optimal cellular nutrition that ultimately creates a new level of wellness, vitality, and youthful appearance from the inside out.

2. ADDRESS AGING ON ALL FRONTS-NOT JUST SKINThe skin is largely an indication of how the body is aging. If the body has been abused, neglected and malnourished, then the skin will reflect this. However, if the body’s cells, tissues and organs are protected from harmful pollutants and replenished with crucial nutrients, the skin will reflect this level of health by appearing vibrant, glowing and youthful.

3. NO HARSH CHEMICALS OR IRRITANTSThe anti-aging products in the Rejuvity and IsaDermix® lines do not use any harsh, irritating chemicals or compounds, including phthalates or parabens. Other common products that include harsh compounds often require downtime and may damage the skin further.

4. PROMOTE SKIN’S NATURAL PROCESSESAgeless Renewal Serum and other anti-aging skin products help minimize the appearance of deep wrinkles, support collagen production, improve elasticity and tone, and increase firmness by helping the skin remember what it has forgotten as we age.

5. BOOST ENERGY, VITALITY, AND OVERALL HEALTHIn addition to the superior skin care, Rejuvity and other Isagenix Nutritional Cleansing and Replenishing products slow biological aging of the entire body, leading to enhanced energy and a new level of vitality and improved overall wellness.6. SUPPORTED BY SCIENCEAll of the ingredients in Rejuvity and the other Isagenix anti-aging and replenishing products are supported by scientific research. In addition, many of the company’s own products - including Ageless Renewal Serum - have been specifically investigated in scientific trials with extremely positive results. A recent trial on Ageless Renewal Serum showed a 92% increase in the overall improvement of the skin, and the CoQ10 used in Ageless Actives has been shown to be 800% more absorbable than standard powder forms used in other products.

7. SUPERIOR QUALITYIsagenix prides itself in using only the highest quality ingredients. With Rejuvity and other anti-aging product lines, this commitment to quality continues.8. UNMATCHED INGREDIENT FORMULATIONSAll of the Isagenix product lines boast unmatched ingredient profiles you can’t find in any other product. These include the growth factors, polypeptides and actives in Ageless Renewal Serum, the lipid-based CoQ10 in Ageless Actives, and many more.

9. ISAGENIX IS AHEAD OF THE CURVEThe Isagenix Quality, Regulatory, Technology, Science (QRTS) teams use the latest scientific research to create life-changing products, thus solidifying its position as an industry leader.

DOLLARS AND SENSEBY David Uffington

Selling Your Home

Many potential sellers are sitting out the real-estate market and waiting for prices to rise again. But if you need to sell now, there are ways to get the most money for your home.First, don't try to sell it yourself. An agent or broker will have tools that aren't available to you: Multiple Listing Service, contacts with other agents, knowledge of the area, pricing comparisons (known as "comps") and more.At the same time, you'll need a savvy agent, and it's up to you to ask questions before you sign with one. The little things can add up: Will the agent hold an open house? Will the agent put your house on the weekly "caravan" where other agents

tour your property? Will potential buyers be financially pre-screened? Does the agent have contacts with mortgage lenders to be able to link up with pre-approved buyers who are just beginning to look?

What is the marketing plan for your property? On which online sites will your home be listed?There are some steps you can take to have your house looking its best. Here are some recommendations:¥ Have a home inspection done in advance so there are no surprises during negotiations with a buyer. Either have those things fixed or be prepared to take a lower price. As a general rule, a buyer wants a place to move into, not move into and fix.¥ De-clutter. Throw out or store elsewhere items that make your home look smaller than it is. Take personal photos off the wall. Clear out closets so it looks like there's plenty of space. (If you're not sure if you've de-cluttered enough, take photos and study them. That's how the space will look

in sale flyers. If there is still too much stuff, move it out.) Ask a friend for an unbiased opinion.¥ Clean. If necessary, hire a professional service to clean floors and appliances.¥ Paint. A neutral color is more pleasing to a wider number of potential buyers.¥ Have the yard manicured and keep it mowed and trimmed at all times. Invest in pots of colorful flowers.¥ Make sure there are enough lamps in each room to make the space seem bright and open. Leave open the drapes for more natural light when the house is being shown.Finally, don't make any expensive changes unless your agent suggests it might be necessary.

David Uffington regrets that he cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into his column whenever possible. Write to him in care of King Features Weekly Service, P.O. Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475, or send e-mail to [email protected].

MAY BABIES (continued):• At age 24, Tina Fey became a writer at NBC’s

“Saturday Night Live,” and by 29, she was the head writer. The next year she joined the cast, where she remained six years until 2006. She is the creator of the TV series “30 Rock” and is the winner of seven Emmy Awards and three Golden Globes. Her daughter was born in 2005, and she returned to work just one month later, saying, “NBC has me under contract. The baby and I only have a verbal agreement.”

• Clint Eastwood turns 81 this May and seems to have no intention or retiring. He spent his early years in a series of jobs, including lifeguard, grocery clerk, forest firefighter and golf caddy. He was almost 30 before the turn in his career came along with the role of Rowdy Yates in television’s “Rawhide,” a character he would play for the next six years. After starring in a string of Western movies, he moved on to the “Dirty Harry” films. When Sean Connery left the role of James Bond, it was offered to Eastwood, but he declined, stating that Bond should be played by a British actor. Eastwood has had a lifelong love of music and the piano and has composed the music for many of his films.

• The family of Henry Kissinger fled the persecution of Nazi Germany in 1938 and moved to New York when he was 15. After serving in the U.S. Army for three years (where he was a Bronze Star recipient), he went on to Harvard University, receiving his Ph.D. in 1954. For the next 15 years, he was a member of Harvard’s faculty before entering the political world, serving as the U.S. Secretary of State under Presidents Nixon and Ford.
