TIDBITS® TAKES A WALK DOWNMAIN STREET

by Patricia L. Cook There are more than 10,466 miles of streets in the United States named Main Street. Even if the “main” street in a city or town is not called “Main,” it is there – usually the most im-portant street in an area’s history.

• Main Streets are all over the world and tell many varied stories. Canada has its share. One of the most famous is the Main Street in Win-nipeg, where it intersects with Portage Avenue, considered the heart of Winnipeg, the center of the country and thereby the heart of Canada. It is also said to be the coldest intersection in Canada! (eh, pretty much an unfair assessment!) • “The Main” in Montreal is actually named Boulevard St-Laurent, also known as St. Law-rence Boulevard.

MAIN STREET (continued):

• Yonge Street was removed from Guinness list of records in 1998, possibly because of road changes near Barrie, Ontario. The distance for the road is 1,178 miles (1,896 km), which sure seems long enough to be distinctive! A brass plaque is embedded in the sidewalk on Yonge Street near Toronto’s waterfront, across from Dundas Square, that marks distances to key cit-ies of Ontario. The street was named after Sir George Yonge, an expert on Roman roads, by Ontario’s first governor.• The Main Streets at Disney theme parks are based on Walt Disney’s hometown when he was a boy, Marceline, Missouri. Walt wanted to cre-ate an area that would bring back memories of childhood in a small town.• San Luis, Arizona’s Main Street is unusual in that it comes to a dead-end at the Mexican bor-der. • The Main Street of Melvindale, Michigan runs through a trailer park near The Ford River Rouge automobile plant, which was the largest factory in the world when it was fully operational. The Rouge, which is now a museum, was where the Model A automobile was first produced in 1927. The gigantic facility was Henry Ford’s idea with a factory that would achieve “a continuous, non-stop process from raw material to finished prod-uct.” • The Rouge in many ways functioned as a city, without its own Main Street or residents! It had its own railroad with 16 locomotives, a bus network with 15 miles of paved streets, a police force, fire department, and even a fully staffed hospital. In the 1930s, at its peak, more than 100,000 people were employed at The Rouge.

EVENT CALENDAR MAIN STREET (continued):

• Have you heard of the longest Main Street in America? The city limits of Island Park, Idaho follow a 35 mile (56 km) drive on U.S. highway 20 that connects Idaho with West Yellowstone, Montana and Yellowstone National Park. The ru-ral town is only 500-5000 feet wide (152-1524 m) along the highway with fishing lodges, mountain views, the very cold Henry’s Fork (also known as the North Fork of the Snake River), Henry’s Lake as well as Island Park Reservoir. Western hospitality beckons visitors to stop and explore.• Some Main Streets have had many years of de-cay before being brought back to life by history lovers. One such place is York, Pennsylvania. By 1978 all four of its downtown department stores were shuttered. Through programs provided for re-establishing downtown areas, the town is now thriving and Main Street is a popular destina-tion. • Natchitoches, Louisiana, founded in 1714, is the oldest settlement in the Louisiana Purchase. The main street in the downtown area faces the Cane River and is named Front Street. This “main” street is kept alive by many small stores with southern charm, tasty restaurants plus a fab-ulous annual Christmas Festival. It is a destina-tion street to visit. Natchitoches was also given a boost in popularity by the movie, Steel Magno-lias, shot on location in 1989. • A famous motorcycle gathering fills up Main Street and the entire city of Sturgis, South Dako-ta annually. The 74th Annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally will be August 4-10, this year. The first rally was held in 1938 with nine motorcyclists in a race. Now the rally attracts as many as 600,000 motorcycle enthusiasts; but they don’t all race!

Tidbits® of Dallas County Page 4 www.tidbitscda.com Page 4MAIN STREET (continued):

• The small town of Wallace, Idaho was formed when the silver boom was happening in the sur-rounding mountains. The main street is actually Bank Street, with impressive old brick buildings harking back to the town’s glory days. With only about 1,000 residents the town hangs on to its roots and entertains travelers along Interstate 90, in the Silver Valley of northern Idaho. • About 11 miles west of Wallace is Kellogg, another small Silver Valley town. The residents approved $8 million in bonds in the late 1980s to build a gondola from Kellogg to the top of Silver Mountain Ski Resort. The 3.1 mile (5 km) gondola ride is North America’s longest and is available for summer adventures on the moun-tain as well. The ski area was actually owned by the city and its taxpayers for a number of years but is now owned by a private company. In 2008 the company opened Idaho’s largest indoor wa-ter park as well, keeping the town on the radar for year round fun. • The entire small town of Eureka Springs in the Ozark Mountains or northern Arkansas is list-ed on the National Register of Historic Places. South Main Street is included in a loop that can be enjoyed on a drive or trolley ride through the hilly terrain. Like many historic small towns, tourism is the biggest business. • While many towns and cities have Main Streets that thrive because either the city government kept the downtowns alive or private citizens in-vested time and effort, some have needed help from outside interests. In the U.S., the National Trust for Historic Preservation has a nonprofit subsidiary, the National Main Street Center, Inc., that provides grants and advice to help.

Coeur d’Alene, ID – In celebration of Earth Day 2014, ActiveWest Builders today an-nounced it was officially recognized the Envi-ronmental Protection Agency (EPA) as well as Energy Star (National) for its continued support and outstanding commitment for building ener-gy efficient new homes through the Energy Star program. ActiveWest Builders (AWB) located in Coeur d’Alene Idaho builds high performance homes and buildings that are 3rd party verified and certified via Energy Star and the U.S. Green Building Council. To date, ActiveWest has contributed to ap-proximately 68 more Energy Star Certified homes being added to the market. That is equivalent to: Eliminating the emissions from 24 vehicles (# homes x 0.356)Saving 123,420 lbs (# homes x 1815) of coalPlanting 95 acres (# homes x 1.4) of treesSaving homeowners $20,400 (# homes x 300) on their utility bills ActiveWest was also recognized by Pa-cific NW Energy Star as one of 6 “Super Energy Efficient” homebuilders in the Pacific North-west. Energy Star & EPA stated in their cor-respondence - “Thank you for your continued support of Energy Star. Through your partner-ship, you are helping homebuyers to experience the peace of mind, quality, comfort, and value that come with every Energy Star certified home. You are also providing homeowners with homes that use less energy and have lower maintenance costs.” “In addition to saving substantial ener-gy, AWB is also building homes that deliver on increased comfort, better indoor air-quality and lower maintenance,” said Neil Grigsby, Initiative Manager for Northwest ENERGY STAR Homes. “As technologies that can im-prove a home’s quality and efficiency evolve, buyers must be educated in order to make informed decisions.” Aside from the 55+ Community Meadow Ranch, AWB has 2 more neighborhoods planned for late summer/fall 2014. The Circuit @ Seltice and Riviera Walk (Riverstone) will both be gated communities with homes built to achieve Energy Star & LEED Certifications.Sharon CunninghamMeadow Ranch-Award Winning Active Adult Community424 Sherman Ave., Suite 205Coeur d'Alene, ID 83814208 755-1648 • mobile http://ActiveWestBuilders.com Facebook/meadowranch

FIBROMYALGIA: A HURT THAT CAN BE HELPED When you hurt all over and feel fatigued, life can be burdensome. According to the Ameri-can College of Rheumatology, and National Institutes for Health, fibromyalgia (Fibromyalgia Syn-drome, FM or FMS) affectsbetween 3 to 8 million Americans. 90% of cases in the U.S. are women. As the numbers of people diagnosed with fibromyalgia is skyrocketing, one has to wonder why. And although we have more and more medications to manage it, we have to look at the causes in order to start on the road to getting well. Some researchers are looking into the possibility of a genetic link since there is a tendency to run in families, although no genetic factor has yet to be identified. However, the greater likelihood is that families do things the same. They have the same poor quality nutrients in their diet, similar emotional traits and similar potentially harmful environmental exposures. Although fibromyalgia can start at any age, it most often occurs in adulthood. Fibromyalgia can be slow onset, starting with stiffness in the morning and progessively worsening, or it could be sudden onset triggered by an injury or trauma. Some infections and au-toimmune disorders such as hepatitis C, Epstein-Barr Virus, Lyme disease, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis are commonly linked. FMS is also frequently associated with certain types of emotional stress and with a prolonged stress response. Typically it is identified by generalized pain that can be achy, throbbing, radiating, burning or shooting and can frequently change locations. Nearly every location of the body when pressed will elicit pain, although it is diagnosed by the tenderness of 11 of 18 specific tender-points. Because the symptoms frequently mimic other conditions such as arthritis, it frequently goes undiagnosed. Also, it can be diagnosed falsely when doctors know you’re hurting and don’t know why, and so it becomes a catch-all diagnosis. Because severe fatigue nearly always accompanies FMS, when we look at causative factors we have to look at the energy-producing systems and if there is possible involvement. The adrenals, blood sugar, thyroid, and of course the nutrients necessary not only for running the energy systems, but the whole body as well.

Yard sale, tag sale, garage sale ... whatever you call it, if you do it right, you can walk away with a decluttered home and a nifty bit of cash, too. Here’s my tip: Advertise, advertise, advertise -- on local message boards and websites, as well as using signs. The more people you drive to your sale, the more you are likely to sell. -- JoAnn

“When you put jewelry out at a garage sale, dis-play it for better results. Use a window screen for paired earrings, or maybe a tie rack for neck-laces. I sell a lot of costume stuff in my sales. Kids especially like it.” -- R.G. in Mississippi

One way to organize a tag sale is to group items in bins by price. Or have a dollar table. If you have lots of clothes, you might price it by the piece and have good price breaks for people who buy lots of pieces.

“Put well-marked sports equipment in a place that can be viewed by passersby. Make attrac-tive displays of toys and tools as well. People are always looking for these.” -- M.H. in Alabama

Not sure how to price your items for resale? The rule for yard sales is as follows: For items that are new, still with tags or in original, unopened packaging, price it as 50 percent off retail. For items that are in good working condition, with all parts and accessories, mark them at 30 percent of what you paid. Other items should be marked down to 20 percent. Be honest with yourself. If something is just usable, but not really worth a buck, put it in a “free” bin. Your customers will be grateful, and you might make an additional sale.

Be sure to have plastic bags on hand. Boxes and newspaper are handy if you are selling any dish-es or glassware, too.

Q :I AM GET-TING OLDER - ISN’T PAIN JUST PART OF THAT?

A: People experience various aches and pains through-out their lives, so age is not the primary reason for pain. We feel “old” when we are in pain, lack flexibility or cannot perform our daily activities whether we are 19 or 90! Pain, can be intermittent, continuous or chronic (longer than 6 months) and affects our mental focus, sleep, work, relationships and activity level. We of-ten “hold” against pain which results in stiffness and causes more pain. Ongoing pain has also been shown to reduce resistance to other diseases.

Q: How do you deal with Yellow Jackets or wasps?

A: Last year was a real challenge with yellow jackets, bees and wasps. This is from a current customer hereceived it from a research scientist that works for the National Forest Services.Need help getting rid of Yellow Jackets or Wasps? This can be done all season but the earlier the better because the wasp or yellow jackets will carry it back to their hives so the queens dies which means no more producing.Several of the flea and tick killers available at your pet store or at Big R contain Fipronil. But be careful to get the product that contains only Fipronil as its active ingredient. When

Fipronil is coupled with other ingredients, the wasps will ignore it. Mix 6 to 10 drops into a golf ball sized gob of raw hamburger (if you macerate it in a blender it works better). Place this gob of poisoned meat into a small plastic cup. Add 1/2 of a cotton ball on which you squirt half the contents of a tube of RESCUE Yellowjacket Attractant found at most hardware stores. Place the poison bait cup in the shade 2 to 4 feet off the ground and 10 to 15 yards away from doors, patios, grills – people trafficked areas. 80% of the Yellow jacket nests within 100 yards will be dead within 24 hours. 95% will be gone in 48 hours. Renew the bait every day (Yellow jackets don’t like dried or rotting meat). After 14 days 100% of the Yellow jacket nests within 200 sq. yds. Will be dead. Repeat baiting after 4 weeks for a few days. It should end you problem. Iused three baited cups widely spread in my yard. It is interesting to note that the wasps eator transported three large golf ball size balls of poisoned meat in 8 hours the first day. Day 2 consumption was slowHere are the key ingredients: 1. Use only Fipronil – no other active ingredient. It’s found in flea and tick killers.2. Mix 0.1% with hamburger. 6 to 10 drops per golf ball sized gob. Macerated burger is better.3. Add Rescue Attractant 4. Renew bait daily.5. Continue use for 14 days.6. Repeat after a month for a few days.Enjoy the rest of your summer!

It was physicist Albert Einstein who made the following sage observation: ÒFew people are capable of expressing with equanimity opin-ions which differ from that of their social environment.Ó

Unlike humans, birds see everything in focus all the time.

You might be surprised to learn that the bag-pipe did not originate in Scotland. This ancient instrument existed in Asia in the pre-Christian era. Those who study such things say that the Emperor Nero was a bagpiper, even performing publicly at Roman athletic events.

Sharks have existed for 50 million years longer than trees.

From ancient times in China up until the 19th century, the upper classes considered very long fingernails to be beautiful and a mark of distinc-tion, indicating that one with such long nails never had to perform manual labor. Cracking was a problem with these long nails, though, as they sometimes were grown in excess of 2 inches long. To combat the problem, the ruling classes would wear special gold and silver cov-ers on their nails.

Even cows have best friends, and they will spend most of their time together.

In a single year, your heart circulates about a million gallons of blood.

You almost certainly have a Social Security num-ber, but did you ever wonder what the numbers mean? The first three numbers indicate what part of the country you were in when you applied (or when your parents applied for you), the next two numbers are a code indicating the year of your application, and the last four numbers are con-sidered to be your citizenÕs number.
