Because the standard for who gets custody is a subjective one. The standard for establishing custody is “the best interests of the child.” This means that a variety of factors can determine custody such as who is closer to the child, who can provide a stable living environment, the mental health of each parent, etc. So, even though Minnesota Courts grant the divorce without regard to who is at fault, parents may still try to prove that the other is a bad parent to establish custody. It is almost always best for the parents to work together and agree on reasonable custody arrangements. There are scenarios though where agreement is simply impossible. Common examples are in abusive relationships or in substance abuse situations. Moreover, it only takes one irrational parent to result in a dispute. In those cases, emotions can get the best of anyone, and you can often make matters worse for yourself. Some pitfalls are the emotional outbursts, retaliation or alienating the kids from the other parent. If you are involved in a custody dispute, the guidance and help you get from a good, experienced and level-headed lawyer can be invaluable. Questions or Concerns?

F. Scott Fitzgerald House:Saint Paul

Home of Francis Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940); spokesman for the Jazz Age, he wrote several stories including his fi rst published novel, This Side of Paradise, in this Victorian rowhouse on Summit Avenue in Saint Paul. The novels, The Beautiful and Damned and The Great Gatsby quickly followed.

James J. Hill House St Paul

The James J. Hill House, in Saint Paul, Minnesota, was built by this railroad magnate. The house, completed in 1891, is near the eastern end of Summit Avenue near the Cathedral of Saint Paul. With 36,000 square feet of living area, the house is the largest residence in Minnesota.

The park contains 19 identifi ed archaeological sites, making it one of the most signifi cant archaeological collections in Minnesota. The earliest site dates to the Archaic period and shows evidence of copper tool manufacture.

Kelley Farm Elk River A historic farmstead once owned by Oliver Hudson Kelley. Kelley moved to Minnesota in 1849, the year that the Minnesota Territory was formed.

• When you open a carton of yogurt, do you know what you’re eating? It’s a mixture of milk and cream that has been fermented with live bacteria at a warm temperature. Because your body needs to have a certain amount of “good” bacteria in the digestive tract, lactic acid-producing bacteria such as acidophilus are added to the mix. Nomadic Bedouins process camel’s milk into drinkable yogurt, and often live on nothing else for six months. Although yogurt has probably been around for about 8,000 years, the well-known Yoplait has only been existence for 49 of those. In 1964, a group of French dairy farmers agreed to merge in order to sell their goods nationwide. They linked the names of two of the farmers, Yola and Coplait to form their new brand Yoplait.• The most important holiday of the Jewish calendar is Yom Kippur, which translates “Day of Atonement.” It’s a day set aside to repent from and atone for the sins of the past year. It occurs on the tenth day of the Jewish month of Tishri, which in 2013 will be September 14. Yom Kippur is a day of fasting, and traditions include no eating or drinking, no bathing, and no wearing of leather shoes. It is also customary to wear white on this day as a symbol of purity, representing the promise that “our sins shall be made as white as snow.” Back in 1965, Los Angeles Dodger pitcher Sandy Koufax made the news when he decided not to pitch the fi rst game of the World Series because that day fell on Yom Kippur. • Renowned cellist Yo Yo Ma was born in Paris to Chinese parents. He began studying the cello at age four, shortly before the family moved to New York City. As a child prodigy he began performing at age fi ve, and at seven, performed for Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy. • Baby boomers will recall a favorite cartoon character created by Hanna-Barbera in 1958. Yogi Bear made his debut in the animated Huckleberry Hound Show. In 1961, Yogi was given his own show, which featured his adventures in Jellystone Park, accompanied by his faithful companion Boo-Boo. They spent their

days stealing “pic-a-nic baskets” from campers and outsmarting Park Ranger Smith. Yogi was full of self-confi dence as he regularly proclaimed, “I’m smarter than the average bear!” Yogi’s character was modeled after the popular Honeymooners character Ed Norton, played by popular celebrity of the time Art Carney. • Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra is considered one of baseball’s greatest catchers. Yogi, who played 17 years with the New York Yankees, was a 15-time All Star and was the American League MVP three times. He was later a player/coach for the NY Mets, a coach and manager for the Mets and Yankees, and a coach for the Houston Astros. As a player, coach, and manager, Yogi appeared in 21 World Series (14 years as a player). The Yankees retired his Number 8 jersey in 1972, the same year he was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Yogi was well known for his witty comments, often called “Yogi-isms,” such as, “Baseball is 90% mental and the other half is physical.” When asked why the Yankees lost the 1960 World Series, he responded, “We made too many wrong mistakes.” A childhood friend gave Yogi his famous nickname, saying he looked like a Hindu snake charmer he had seen in a movie. • The name of Denton True Young might not be familiar, but surely you’ve heard his nickname, Cy. Cy Young had a 22-year

baseball career that started in 1890 pitching for the Cleveland Spiders. He moved on to the St. Louis Perfectos after eight seasons. Young established records that still stand today after more than 100 years, including most wins (511), career innings pitched (7,355), most career games started (815), and most completed games (749). He earned the nickname Cy after his fastball destroyed several fences. Reporters wrote that the fences looked like a cyclone had hit them, and the name stuck. The Cy Young Award, given to the leagues’ best pitchers, was established in 1956. • The Yorkshire Terrier breed of dog was developed in the 1800s in the county of Yorkshire, England, to catch rats in clothing mills. The smallest Yorkie in recorded history was just 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) tall and weighed 4 ounces (113 grams). Famous Yorkie owners include Paris Hilton, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, and Vanessa Williams. Audrey Hepburn’s Yorkie Mr. Famous appeared with her in a scene in her 1957 movie Funny Face. • The notorious Cole Younger Gang teamed up with the James Brothers in the 1870s and the eight-member band of outlaws went on a spree of train, stagecoach, and bank robberies. Their

crimes came to a halt during a Minnesota bank robbery attempt in 1874. The James Brothers escaped, three other members were killed, and the three Younger brothers were captured. Cole Younger had been shot 11 times, but survived to serve 25 years in prison, after which he was paroled. During his prison time, he founded the longest-running prison newspaper in the U.S.

■ On May 30, 1431, in Normandy, Joan of Arc, the peasant girl who became the savior of France, is burned at the stake for heresy. Her

most serious crime, according to the tribunal, was her rejection of church authority in favor of direct inspiration from God. She was 19 years old.

■ On May 31, 1889, the South Fork Dam in Johnstown, Pa., collapses, causing a fl ood that kills more than 2,200 people. It was the largest earthen dam (made of dirt and rock, rather than steel and concrete) in the United States. Reportedly, a baby survived on the fl oor of a house as it fl oated 75 miles from Johnstown.

■ On May 29, 1914, heavy fog on the St. Lawrence River in Canada causes a collision of boats -- the Empress of Ireland and the Storstad -- that kills 1,073 people. Caused by a horrible series of blunders, it was one of the worst maritime disasters in history.

■ On June 2, 1924, with Congress’ passage of the

Indian Citizenship Act, the government of the United States confers citizenship on all Native Americans born within the territorial limits of the country. Before the Civil War, citizenship often was limited to Native Americans of one-half or less Indian blood.

■ On May 27, 1937, San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge opens to the public after fi ve years of construction. On opening day -- “Pedestrian Day” -- some 200,000 walkers crossed the bridge, which spans the Golden Gate Strait at the entrance to San Francisco Bay and connects San Francisco and Marin County.

■ On May 28, 1957, National League owners vote unanimously to allow the New York Giants and Brooklyn Dodgers to move to San Francisco and Los Angeles, respectively, at the mid-season owner’s meeting in Chicago.

■ On June 1, 1980, CNN (Cable News Network), the world’s fi rst 24-hour television news network, makes its debut. Today, CNN is seen in more than 89 million American households and more than 160 million homes internationally. In its fi rst years of operation, CNN

lost money and was ridiculed as the Chicken Noodle Network.

■ On June 4, 1896, Henry Ford unveils the “Quadricycle.” The 500-pound vehicle had two driving speeds, no reverse, no brakes, rudimentary steering ability and a doorbell button as a horn. It could reach about 20 mph.

■ On June 6, 1933, eager motorists park their automobiles on the grounds of the Park-In movie theater in New Jersey, the fi rst-ever drive-in movie theater. Inventor Richard Hollingshead had come up with the idea in the driveway of his own house, where he perfected projection and sound techniques.

■ On June 5, 1968, U.S. Sen. Robert Kennedy is shot at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles after winning the California presidential primary. Kennedy was shot by 22-year-old Palestinian Sirhan Sirhan, and died a day later.

USES FOR BASTERS

To make picture-perfect pancakes, cookies and muffi ns - Simply fi ll your baster withbatter so that you can pour just the right amount onto a griddle or cookie sheet or intoa muffi n tin.

Water hard to reach plants - Do you get drips all over yourself, the fl oor, or furniturewhen trying to water hanging plants or other diffi cult to reach houseplants? Instead,fi ll a baster with water and squeeze it directly into the pot. You can also use a baster towater a Chirstmas tree and to add small, precise amounts of water to cups containingseedlings or germinating seeds.

Clean your Aquarium - A baster makes it incredibly easy to change the water in your fi sh tank or to freshen it up a bit. Simply use it to suck up the gunk that collects in thecorners and in the gravel at the bottom of your tank.

Place water in a pet's bowl - If you are getting tired of chasing the pet hamster or other caged pet around the house whenever you change its water, use a baster to fi llthe water dish. You can usually fi t a baster between the slats without having to openthe cage.

OTHER USEFUL TIPS

Orange peel naturally cleans water spots - Next time you peel an orange, don't chuck the skin. The peel erases water spots on metal faucets, and dissolves light gunk build-up in sinks. You can also shine up dull wood with the white-membrane side of the

peel; the orange's oils act like a natural polish and leave a nice glow. It also isgood for repelling insects.

Toothpaste naturally cleans dirty walls - Dirty walls? Squirt a little non-geltoothpaste on the spots and scrub with a rag or brush, then rinse with water. Thepaste also acts as a natural deodorant against sour smells, so try scrubbing insidestinky baby bottles with toothpaste and then rinsing thoroughly.

Lemon naturally cleans your fridge - If your fridge needs a pick-me-up, dab acotton ball or sponge in lemon juice and leave it in the refrigerator for a few hoursto neutralize odors. More? Marble counters are easily stained, but cutting a lemonin half, dipping the exposed fl esh in salt and rubbing vigorously should get rid of the toughest stains. You can also squirt lemon juice anywhere that attracts insects,like door thresholds or windowsills to keep ants away. Washing your fl oor withthe juice of four lemons and 1/2 gallon of water will deter roaches and fl eas, whichhate the smell.

Borax naturally cleans mold and bacteria - Make your own dishwasher detergent by mixing equal parts borax and baking soda (about 2 tablespoons per load). Youcan also kill mold and bacteria in your garbage disposal or drain by pouring threetablespoons of borax down and letting it sit for an hour, every couple weeks.Source: Extraordinary Uses for Ordinary Things by Readers Digest

• In World War II, the Allied forces decided to start re-taking Europe by wresting the island of Sicily out of the hands of the Axis. British Naval Intelligence concluded that enemy forces needed to be misled into believing the Allies were planning on storming the nearby island of Sardinia. Axis troops would be massed there, leaving Sicily unprotected. The question was how to fool the Germans. Thus was born one of the more unusual plots of World War II. The plan was to fi nd a corpse, outfi t it with fake ID, plant important documents on it that divulged the "secret" plans to invade Sardinia, then put it where the Germans would fi nd it. • Allied operatives in charge of the project secured the body of a soldier who had died of pneumonia. They made up fake ID papers which named him as Major William Martin. Two letters from Major Martin's "girlfriend" named Pam were handwritten and placed in his pocket, along with a snapshot of a woman. In the letter she talked about their upcoming wedding, and they placed a bill from a jewelry store for an engagement ring in the billfold. A bill for an overnight stay at the Naval and Military Club was included, dated the day before the Major was to meet his unfortunate "death." His pockets were fi lled with coins, keys, a pencil, cigarettes, matches, and theater ticket stubs. A watch was placed on one wrist. An ID tag was placed on a chain around his neck. A wallet in his back pocket contained two pictures of "Pam," a book of stamps with two missing, and some money. Then they attached a briefcase to his body with a chain of the same type bank messengers use when carrying valuables. This would prevent the briefcase from fl oating away from the body, as well as alerting the Germans to the importance of the corpse. Continued next page• Fake letters from high ranking offi cers were placed in the briefcase. The letters discussed how it could be possible to make the Germans believe the next attack would be on Sicily, leaving Sardinia unprotected.• Next they had to get the body to the Germans, by making it appear as if his plane crash-landed into the sea. They knew that a German secret agent was stationed at Huelva, Spain. So they commissioned a submarine to carry the body to the coast of Huelva and release it. The body was packed in dry ice to prevent decomposition on the submarine. Major Martin was wrapped in a life jacket before being released to be sure

the body would fl oat. The plan kicked into action.• A Spanish fi sherman found the body. Military offi cers were summoned. A Naval offi cer took the briefcase and all personal documents. A doctor, fi nding fl uid in the lungs (due to pneumonia) announced that the death had been due to drowning. The body was turned over to British diplomats, and they arranged a military funeral. "Pam" sent fl owers for the grave. The British asked that Major Martin's briefcase be returned, and eventually it was. But examination showed that all the "secret" documents had been removed and then replaced.• German offi cials forwarded copies of the documents all the way up to Hitler. German troops went to reinforce Sardinia. Submarines moved out of Sicilian waters.• On July 10, 1943, the Allies invaded Sicily incurring only slight losses. Even after the invasion started, the Germans were convinced it was not a legitimate attack but merely a diversionary tactic. Allies liberated Sicily in only 39 days and used it as a springboard for the invasion of Italy. Major Martin served his country well.

When you think of correct manners, proper etiquette, and good taste, the name of Emily Post has to come to mind. Here is the history of this noted expert on appropriate behavior for any occasion. • Emily Post was born to a life of privilege in 1872, the daughter of a wealthy architect. She was educated by governesses and later attended New York City’s prestigious Miss Graham’s fi nishing school, where she was trained in all matters of ladylike conduct. As a young debutante, she met her future husband Edwin Main Post at an elegant ball in a posh Fifth Avenue mansion. Emily married the prominent banker when she was 20, and embarked on a lavish honeymoon tour throughout Europe.• Emily gave birth to her fi rst son a year after her marriage, and to another in 1895. Her husband’s infi delity a few years later led to a scandal and the couple divorced in 1905. Emily requested no alimony from Edwin, as he had recently lost nearly everything in a stock market crash. Instead she turned to writing to support herself and her sons. • Emily started out writing romantic short stories that were published in popular fi ction magazines of the day, as well as articles on architecture and interior design. She moved on to novels and had published fi ve by the

year 1910. A publishing company editor urged her to write a book on etiquette, and in 1922, Etiquette in Society, in Business, in Politics, and at Home – The Blue Book of Social Usage was released and almost immediately became a best seller. In the years to come, ten editions of the book were published. • Starting in 1931, Emily hosted a radio program, as well as producing a daily newspaper column, which was syndicated in 200 newspapers across the country. Along the way she continued to author new books, including The Personality of a House, Children Are People, Motor Manners, and The Emily Post Cook Book. • Emily’s approach to good manners was that of bringing common sense to behavior. Her root belief was that manners included “good form in speech, knowledge of proper social graces, and charm.” She especially disliked pretentious people, dirty silverware, and hostesses who served themselves fi rst. Although she authored an

advice column, she consistently avoided giving “lonely hearts” advice. She did hold fast to her advice whenever a single girl asked if it was correct to visit a man alone in his apartment – the answer was “No.”. • In 1946, Emily founded the Emily Post Institute, an organization designed to offer expert etiquette advice to corporations, which continues to promote standards of good manners and civility around the world. Emily’s third and fourth generation descendants still write books and columns, and conduct seminars and workshops based on the principles of honesty, respect, and consideration. • In Emily’s words, manners are “a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter what fork you use.” • “A gentleman does not boast about his junk.” – Emily Post

I had no ambition to make a fortune. Mere moneymaking has never been my goal; I had an ambitionto build. - John D. Rockefeller

There are really only three types of people: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who ask, what happened? - Ann Landers

MARINE CORPS EXERCISE REGIMEN FOR PEOPLE OVER 60 Begin by standing on a comfortable surface, where youhave plenty of room on each side.

With a 5-lb potato bag in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides. Hold them there as long asyou can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find that you can hold this position for just a bit longer.

After a couple of weeks, move up to 10-lb potato bags.Then try 50-lb potato bags, and then eventually, try to getto where you can lift a 100-lb potato bag in each hand andhold your arms straight for more than a full minute. (I'm at this level.) After you feelconfident at that level, put a potato in each bag.

Page 7: ISSUE 692 NW-SH

The Reluctant PsychicPhone Readings, Be Relaxed If you feel it’s time to have a psychic reading, but you don’t really have the time or want to make the drive to see your psychic, consider having a phone reading. Phone readings are no more diffi cult to do than an in-person reading. Your psychic will open up the same way he or she does if you’re sitting across from them and the information will come in the same way. Most psychics don’t need to be in the same room with you or need to touch you. They just have to open up and be the channel for information to fl ow from your guide to you, or in the case of a Medium, from your loved ones who have crossed over. I’ve had people who were very surprised that I could do a reading on someone in another state, and they almost couldn’t believe that I could read someone in a different country. The paranormal world doesn’t have the same boundaries that we do. Space and distance are no barrier to information getting through. Before you begin your reading, be sure to make a list of items to ask about. It’s also important to relax. If you are tense or nervous it could make it diffi cult to have a good experience. When we are tense or nervous we automatically put up protective walls. It’s how we keep ourselves from getting hurt emotionally. Just like in real life though, with a wall, you have to fi nd a way to get in, even if you have to go over it, and that can take some time for the person attempting to read you. Take time before-hand to settle your mind and physical body so that you are open to the psychic “reading”. Psychics have a reputation of “fi shing” for information. If you experience this, what could be happening is that the psychic is attempting to get through your wall by asking you general questions about yourself. When we begin to talk about ourselves we tend to relax. If you are relaxed before your reading, everything should move along easily. 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, with your life, and with those loved ones who have moved on.
