MODERN CONVENIENCES

Kathy Wolfe

Think of all those little things you just couldn’t live without. How long have they really been around? This week, Tidbits investigates the origin of several of those conveniences we make use of on a regular basis.

• Earl Tupper founded his company in 1938, promoting his new line of polyethylene containers with airtight seals named, appropriately, Tupperware. The items were initially sold in department stores, but in the early 1950s, the marketing strategy was changed to the familiar Tupperware

“party.” Tupper didn’t just make bowls and cups; he also had a contract to make gas mask parts during World War II.

He sold his plastics company in 1958 for $16 million.

• If you think we’ve always used envelopes, think again! This simple item didn’t come along until 1845. Prior to that, folks simply folded letters both ways and sealed them with wax. Pre-gummed envelopes weren’t introduced for another 50 years.

• We all take our polio vaccinations for granted, but they weren’t administered for the first time until 1954, in the city of Pittsburgh, where Dr. Jonas Salk had been conducting his experiments. A 1952 polio epidemic that killed 3,300 and paralyzed thousands inspired Dr. Salk to develop a vaccine.

• Chester Carlson spent a good part of his life perfecting the copy machine, receiving a patent in 1937. However, the

CONVENIENCES (continued):

world didn’t share his vision of one-touch copying, and 20 companies, including IBM, rejected his presentation before it was finally marketed for the first time in 1959 under the name “Xerox 914.” By 1968, Fortune magazine ranked Carlson among the richest people in America.

• The 1950s brought all kinds of innovations to the modern home. Velcro, power steering, pocket transistor radios and Legos all hit the scene during this decade. The world’s first credit card, the Diners Club card, was introduced in 1950. Issued in New York City, it offered credit at 27 restaurants. The American Express card came along eight years later.

• When your eyes begin to age, you’ll be thankful for one of Benjamin Franklin’s innovations. Our founding father invented bifocal eyeglasses at the age of 79.

• Travelers have had the convenience of pulling into a Holiday Inn along the road since the chain opened its first hotel in 1952 in Memphis, Tennessee.

• Masking tape was developed by the 3M Company, a sandpaper-making firm, in 1925. One of the company’s young engineers, Richard Drew, was testing sandpaper at an automobile plant and noticed that painters were having difficulty painting the newly popular two-tone cars. Drew went back to 3M and immediately began work on a product to solve the painters’ dilemma. Waterproof transparent “Scotch” tape came along five years later, also the creation of Richard Drew. A 3M co-worker of Drew’s invented the tape dispenser with a built-in cutter blade in 1932.

• Thanks to a Chicago inventor, Whitcomb Judson, you can zip up your pants! While experimenting in 1891 with a gadget that would make it easier to button and unbutton shoes, dubbed the “Clasp Locker and Unlocker for Shoes,” Judson came up with the zipper.

• The fax machine has been around longer than you think. This device that transmits a facsimile of a document through the telephone system has been around since 1944. And how about another item you’d think has been around forever, the ballpoint pen? It came out the same year as that fax machine. Nine years later, Bic introduced their now-famous brand of ballpoint pen. In 1973, Bic presented its next best-selling gadget, the disposable lighter.

• Two unrelated items, the voting machine and waxed paper, were both invented by the same person, Thomas Edison. During the 1880s, this brilliant individual filed for a new patent on the average of every five days, equaling more than 1,300 items over the course of his creative life. The motion picture camera and projector, incandescent light bulbs and the phonograph are well-known Edison inventions, with lesser-known innovations being the stock ticker, dictating machine and electric pen.

• What would your life be like without computers? Although many would claim the honor of inventing the world’s first computer, a 1973 American court decision officially awarded this achievement to Dr. John V. Atanasoff, a physics professor at Iowa State University. Although Dr. Atanasoff had devised his digital computer with a memory drum back in 1939, he was not credited as the “father of American computing” until after years of patent litigation. President George Bush conferred the National Medal of Science and Technology to him in 1990.

• The next time you strike a match, consider the fact that this little convenience has been around since 1816, when a Frenchman developed a friction match with a phosphorus tip, providing a simple means of access to fire.

• Do you run faster in your Nikes? No one did, prior to 1972. That’s the year the company introduced its first running shoes, named after the Greek goddess of victory. The company was originally named Blue Ribbon Sports, and remained so until the name change to Nike in 1978.

• Listerine wasn’t named after its inventor, Dr. Joseph Lawrence, but rather after the acclaimed British surgeon, Dr. Joseph Lister, a pioneer in establishing sanitary operating room procedures. When Lawrence originated the formula in 1879 in his St. Louis laboratory, he intended the concoction to be used strictly in the medical profession as a surgical antiseptic. It wasn’t offered to the public until 1914 when it was marketed as the first over-the-counter mouthwash.

• What would sports fans do without instant replays? There was no such thing until 1963, when this was introduced in that year’s Army vs. Navy football game. Fans became so confused, TV stations were flooded with telephone calls.

• Housewives across the country were thrilled when the Hurley Machine Company of Chicago launched The Thor, the first electric-powered washing machine, in 1908. It was a drum-like machine with a galvanized tub and electric motor.

• Due to the efforts of Lillian Gilbreth, we have shelves and butter and egg trays inside refrigerator doors, an electric food mixer, an improved electric can opener and a trash can with a foot pedal lid opener. The mother of 12 children, this industrial engineer was immortalized in the book “Cheaper by the Dozen.”

FAMOUS LANDMARKS OF THE WORLD:

GREAT WALL OF CHINA

It should come as no surprise that the Great Wall of China is the world’s longest wall. So what are some things you don’t know about this work of ancient architecture? Here are some highlights.

• Construction began on this edifice in the 7th century B.C. by feudal warlords. At that time, China was broken up into many small states, with each state having its own walls of defense, in essence, several short Great Walls.

• During the Qin Dynasty in the 2nd century B.C., the northern part of China was in danger of attack by the Mongolian and Manchu empires, and the emperor of China ordered that all the northern sections be joined together to create one unified defensive wall. Once that was completed, the Wall stretched more than 3,100 miles (5,000 km) across the country.

• The Han Dynasty followed the Qin, and the Wall was at its longest up to that point, more than 5,000 miles (8,000 km).

• As the years wore on, the Wall suffered erosion, was rebuilt and added on to many times. The Ming Dynasty, 1368 – 1644, was the time of the most recent

construction, bringing the Wall to what we know today. A 2009 investigation determined that the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty totals 5,500 miles (8,852 km). It includes 723 beacon towers, 7,062 lookout towers and 3,357 wall platforms. It’s difficult to estimate the actual length of the Wall, considering all the side branches that don’t actually contribute to its west-to-east length. It is believed that the fortifications extending in all directions throughout all of Northern China added together exceed 13,000 miles (50,000 km).

• It is estimated that more than a million workers perished during the various states of construction of the Great Wall, earning it the nickname of “the longest cemetery on Earth.” Laborers included peasants, unemployed intellectuals, disgraced noblemen, guards and convicts. Family members of the dead workers traditionally carried a coffin with a caged white rooster on top. The rooster’s crowing was said to keep the spirit of the dead awake until he had crossed the Wall. If the rooster did not crow, it was thought that the spirit would escape and wander forever along the Great Wall.

• Before the Ming expansion, rammed earth, adobe and stone comprised the Wall, mortared with a rice flour mixture. After the Ming, bricks were used in construction. In some places, the Wall’s height reaches 25 feet (7.6 m). Its average width is about 32 feet (10 m).

• Portions of the Wall began admitting tourists in 1955, with the final section opening to the public in 1957. Both sightseers and erosion pose a serious threat to the Wall, and it is considered one of the world’s most endangered monuments. With millions of visitors annually and tourists helping themselves to souvenir bricks, the Wall actually becomes a little shorter each day.

• The Wall’s primary purpose has always been to defend the Chinese Empire. The last battle fought along the edifice was in 1938 during the Sino-Japanese War between the Republic of China and the Empire of Japan. Bullet marks from the battle can be seen along the Wall’s length.

POST OFFICE TRUTHSThe United States Post Office delivers mail to every city and every town in every state, nearly 151 million homes, businesses and P.O. boxes. Here are some details about the origin and operation of this immense delivery system, one that receives none of its income from tax dollars.

• During the early colonial days, mail was delivered by friends, traveling merchants or Native Americans. A service between England and its colonies was developed in 1639, and a Boston tavern became the first post office mail drop for overseas mail. The colonies instituted their own monthly post route between New York and Boston, known as the Old Boston Post Road, now part of U.S. Route 1.

• Pennsylvania’s founder William Penn established that area’s first post office in 1683. In 1737, 31-year-old Benjamin Franklin, a local printer and publisher of the P e n n s y l v a n i a Gazette, was appointed as postmaster of Philadelphia. Thirty-eight years later, Franklin became the nation’s first Postmaster General, and was paid $1,000 a year for the position.

• America’s first postage stamps were issued in July of 1847, with two varieties available. The five-cent stamp featured the likeness of Benjamin Franklin, while the ten-cent denomination honored George Washington. The stamps were pre-gummed, but had to be cut from a sheet with scissors. Washington’s likeness has appeared on more U.S. postage stamps than any other person’s.

• Every day, approximately 563 million pieces of mail are processed. That’s about 23 million pieces each hour, and 391,000 per minute.

• The Post Office operates more than 215,000 vehicles, making it the largest civilian fleet in the world. These vehicles drive over 4 million miles each day. Each time the price of gas increases by just one penny, there is an increase of $1 million in costs to the Post Office. However, not every mail carrier drives a vehicle –— about 8,800 deliver the mail strictly on foot and have earned the nickname “The Fleet of Feet.”

• In the early 1960s, with the volume of mail increasing dramatically, the Post Office began working on a coding system to enable faster processing. It was dubbed the Zoning Improvement Plan, or ZIP, for short. A five-

digit code was assigned to every address across the nation, with the first number designating the geographical area and the second two digits identifying a regional center. The last two signified the post office. The ZIP Code system went into effect in July 1963. Today

there are more than 42,000 codes nationwide.

• If a ZIP code begins with a zero, it indicates the northeastern part

of the United States. The lowest ZIP code identifies Holtsville, New York. ZIP codes beginning with nine designate the far West, with the nation’s highest ZIP code of 99950 in Ketchikan, Alaska. General Electric in Schenectady, New York, has been assigned

the easiest to remember, 12345.

• Houston, Texas, is the leader in the number of dog attacks on mail carriers. Last year, nearly 5,700 postal employees were attacked, with medical expenses costing the Postal Service close to $1.2 million. • The nation’s smallest post office can be found in Ochopee, Florida, measuring just 61.3 square feet. New York City is home to the largest facility, with 393,000 square feet. Hinsdale, New Hampshire’s post office has been in its current location longer than any other — 195 years!


High Blood Pressure (Hypertension) What Is High Blood Pressure?High blood pressure (hypertension) increases the risk of dangerous health problems, such as heart attacks and strokes. Doctors measure blood pressure using two numbers, such as 120/80. The first number shows the surge of pressure in the arteries with every heart beat, and the second number shows the pressure between beats. If either one of these numbers is too high, blood pressure can be dangerous.

Classification: SBP DBP Normal: <120 and <80 Prehypertension: 120-139 or 80-89 Stage 1 hypertension: 140-159 or 90-99 Stage 2 hypertension: >160 or >100 Bringing blood pressure under control is very important, and treatment often involves taking medication. However, changing the way you eat can bring you blood pressure down and may help reduce the need for medication.

What Can I Do to Control My Blood Pressure?Reduce salt in your diet. Cutting down on salt helps reduce blood pressure. You can do this by:

Using less and less salt in cooking. Your taste will soon adjust.Avoiding adding salt to foods at the table.Avoiding salty snacks, such as potato chips.Avoiding canned foods with added sodium (salt).Choose low-sodium (low-salt) varieties of canned soups and vegetables, or fresh or frozen vegetables which are naturally low in sodium.Limit foods that are packed in brine, such as pickles and olives, and high sodium condiments, such as soy sauce, ketchup, mustard, and barbeque sauce.Read the “Nutrition Facts” label. The amount of sodium (salt) in a food product is listed on the nutrition facts label. The following label claims can be placed on a food package which will tell you if the product is low in salt:

Low Sodium—contains 140 mg or less sodium per serving

Very Low Sodium—contains 35 mg or less sodium per servingSodium Free—contains less than 5 mg of sodium per serving

Choose more vegetarian foods. People who follow vegetarian diets typically have lower blood pressure.2,3,4

No one knows exactly why these foods work so well, but it is probably because cutting out meat, dairy products, and added fats reduces the blood’s viscosity (or “thickness”) which, in turn, brings down blood pressure.5 Plant products are generally lower in fat and sodium and have no cholesterol at all. Vegetables and fruits are also rich in potassium, which helps lower blood pressure.

Try following a vegetarian diet for four to six weeks to find out how well these foods will work for you. Then have your doctor check your blood pressure. Pure vegetarian diets—diets that do not contain any meat, chicken, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy, or animal fat—are generally adequate in all nutrients except vitamin B12, which is found in fortified cereals, such as Product 19 and Total, or any common multivitamin.

Include more of the following foods in your diet which are naturally low in sodium:

Whole grains—brown rice, whole wheat bread or pasta, unsweetened hot or cold cereal, millet, barley, buckwheat groats, and quinoa

Beans/legumes—dried (not canned) black-eyed peas, kidney beans, pinto beans, lentils, navy beans, chickpeas, soymilk, textured vegetable protein, and tofu

Vegetables—fresh or frozen varieties, such as broccoli, mustard greens, collard greens, kale, spinach, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, squash, and corn

Fruits—fresh or frozen varieties, such as bananas, oranges, apples, pears, grapefruit, strawberries, mango, papaya, guava, strawberries, and blueberries

Lower your weight. Avoiding fatty foods, such as animal products and fried foods, and increasing the use of whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and beans helps reduce weight. In turn, this helps bring down blood pressure. As an added benefit, losing weight reduces your risk of diabetes, heart problems, joint problems, some cancers, and other conditions. If you have a significant weight problem, be sure to consult with your doctor about the best ways for you to lose weight.

Limit alcohol use. Alcohol can raise blood pressure and it helps to limit alcohol to no more than one to two drinks per day (beer and wine count as drinks).

Become more physically active. Exercise can help bring

down your blood pressure. A typical healthy exercise schedule would include a brisk walk for a half-hour each day or one hour three times per week. Since exercise puts added strain on your heart, be sure to check with your doctor first about the best way for you to become more physically active.

Avoid tobacco. There are many good reasons to quit smoking, and healthier arteries is one of them.

Let your doctor know you are concerned about your blood pressure and want to use foods to help bring it under control. High blood pressure is dangerous, so, let your doctor guide you as to when and if your need for medication has changed.

When Medicines Fail to Quell Heartburn

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I am 25. I have a serious case of GERD. I’ve been put on four different medicines. They aren’t working.

I also have palpitations throughout the day. I’ve been told by doctors and nurses that there is nothing dangerous about them. I’d like to know if this true. -- J.C.

ANSWER: GERD -- gastroesophageal reflux disorder -- is heartburn. It’s the upward spurting of stomach acid and digestive juices into the esophagus, the swallowing tube, a place that is not able to cope with these corrosive juices the way the stomach is.

Eliminate or go easy on foods that make GERD worse: citrus fruits; tomatoes; onions; carbonated drinks; spicy, fatty or fried foods; chocolate; peppermint; and caffeine. If you’re overweight, weight loss lessens GERD symptoms. Don’t lie down after eating. Don’t smoke. Sleep with your head, chest and stomach on a slope by putting 6-inch blocks under the bedposts at the head of your bed. That position keeps stomach acid in the stomach. Don’t wear anything that constricts your stomach, like tight pants or tight belts.Medicines called “proton pump inhibitors” nearly completely turn off acid production. Nexium, Prevacid, Prilosec, Protonix, Aciphex and Dexilant are their names. If you still have heartburn while on these medicines, it’s OK to use an antacid along with them.

If medicines fail, other causes of heartburn need consideration, things like bile reflux or eosinophilic esophagitis. If these conditions aren’t found, then surgical treatment of GERD is an option that’s open to you.

Palpitations mean a thumping or racing heart. They can be felt as a thud in the chest. The cause is an extra beat -- or more correctly, a premature beat -- one that comes before it

should. The beat after a premature beat is delayed. During the delay, the heart fills with more blood than usual, and that causes a thump in the chest when the heart empties. Premature beats are almost always innocent and need no treatment. You can believe your doctors and nurses.

The booklet on GERD explains this common malady and its treatment. To order a copy, write: Dr. Donohue -- No. 501W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Can you give me insight into the Hamman-Rich syndrome? My father passed away from it. -- L.R.

ANSWER: I can tell you only a little, because only a little is known about it. It’s a lung injury that comes on suddenly, with damage to the lung air sacs (the alveoli) and the spaces between the air sacs, the interstitium. The cause is unknown. Because of such destruction, oxygen cannot get into the blood. Patients are severely short of breath, have a fever and they cough. The only medicines are ones to keep the person going as best as possible. There is no cure medicine. Even with a ventilator, death happens to more than 60 percent of these patients.

It’s an illness that reminds doctors that they don’t have an answer for every malady. You and your family have my condolences.

Stopping a Leak From Toilet Base

Q: I read your advice to Christine H. about figuring out where a puddle of water at the base of her toilet was coming from. You said that if no other source of the leak could be detected, such as from the inlet valve, she should contact a plumber to replace the seal at the base of the toilet. Why can’t she just tighten down the bolts on either side of the toilet base? This might fix the problem and cost zero dollars. -- Kent C., Atlanta

A: That’s certainly worth a try, since it really doesn’t cost anything. But be careful that the bolts (or really, the nuts securing the bolts) aren’t tightened too much, as they could crack the porcelain base, requiring a complete replacement of the toilet.

If this doesn’t resolve the issue, a plumber should come in, at least in the case of Christine H. For hearty do-it-yourselfers who have some experience repairing pipes or replacing faucets, replacing the wax toilet seal can be done in an afternoon or less. And the quicker it’s done, the better, as the leak isn’t just causing an inconveniently wet floor; it could also be affecting the subfloor and causing silent water damage.

To replace the toilet seal, you’ll need a new wax toilet ring, some plumber’s putty and a strong helper.

Turn off the water at the shutoff valve, usually located on the wall behind and below the toilet tank. Flush the toilet, then remove as much water from the toilet bowl as possible, first using a small cup and then a sponge. Next, detach the inlet tube from the shutoff valve and from the base of the toilet tank.

Unbolt the tank from the toilet base and carefully lift off. Then, unscrew the nuts attaching the base of the toilet to the floor. With your helper, carefully rock the toilet base back and forth to loosen the seals and caulking around the base, then lift the toilet base up.

Next, tilt the toilet base so you can access the bottom and wipe away all the old putty and wax. Clean the floor and the area around the drain pipe as well, so it’s completely dry and free of putty.

Put the replacement wax ring on the floor around the drain pipe. Then, place plumber’s putty around the foot of the toilet base -- one way is to create a putty “rope” and press it around the perimeter.

With your helper, lift the toilet base and position it over the wax ring and drain pipe and bolts. Ease it into position by rocking and pressing the base down so that the new ring sits tightly in place. Attach the nuts to the bolts on either side of the base and tighten carefully.

Reattach the tank to the base, attach the water supply line to the tank and shutoff valve, and turn on the water supply, checking to make sure the supply line connection doesn’t leak. Finally, trim away the excess plumber’s putty from the foot of the toilet.

****Does the toilet base need to be sealed to the floor? Yes, for a number of reasons, and because it’s required by building code in most states.

Amazing Travel Maze Game

“Please turn off all electronic devices,” announces the flight attendant as the door is locked shut on the aircraft taking

you and your kids to your destination. No longer tethered to gadgets and gizmos, you are officially an unplugged family. Now it’s time for real, live entertainment. Take advantage of the incredible view through the frame of your seat window as your plane banks over your departure city. No matter how many times you’ve flown, it’s always a new adventure to catch the scene below. Your kids may squeal, “Where’s our house? Is that the Mississippi River? Wow, look at all the cars on the freeway during rush hour!” Not even Disney makes a ride like this.

When you soar above the clouds, pull out this handheld toy and let it keep you entertained until the peanuts and pretzels arrive on your tray table. It’s a maze made using simple supplies including a tiny bead, bendable straws for barriers, and a plastic CD case.

Here’s how to make a maze toy before your trip:1. Open a CD case and remove the contents. Cover the bottom of the case with a sheet of heavy construction paper or craft foam. Cut to size and glue in place.

2. Be maze architects. Set the CD case in front of you. Determine where the “START” entry point and final goal will be near the bottom and make dots with a marker as a guide for construction, or simply write “START” at the

top and “FINISH” at the bottom of the game board. To create a path for the game, sketch a route on the board with a pen from “START” to “FINISH.”

3. Arrange different cut pieces of bendable straw lengths on the game board using the drawing as a guide. Include several dead ends along the way for a challenging course, and leave ample space for the size of the bead you choose to roll through the course. When you are satisfied with your design, glue the straw segments in place. Let dry.

4. To play, set a bead at “START,” snap the case closed and let it roll. For an extra challenge, time the contestants with a stopwatch. When you really get the hang of it, try going through the maze without looking, using verbal cues from siblings, or Mom and Dad.

Extra idea: Construct the game with a tiny bead that goes through the bendable straws instead of around them.

Is Human RemedySafe for Dogs?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Our dog, “Kerry,” has pigmentary keratitis, and our vet prescribed tacrolimus and gentamycin solutions, which are very expensive. Instead,

we are trying Similasan dry eye relief in Kerry’s eyes. Is this safe to use? It seems to be working. -- C. Tobias

DEAR C.: Pigmentary keratitis can be difficult to treat, and often is chronic in many dogs. According to vision4pets.com, this clouding of the cornea is caused by chronic inflammation stemming from a number of possible issues, such as constant irritation from hairs, decreased tears, an incomplete blink reflex, abnormally shaped eyelids or very prominent eyes -- such as those seen in pugs and other short-faced breeds.

Because it’s chronic, Kerry likely must be treated with eyedrop solutions like the ones you mentioned, and they are indeed often expensive.

Using Similasan may be one option. According to justanswer.com’s veterinary section, while this dry-eye treatment is normally for humans, it can be applied to your dog’s eyes two or three times a day. The website didn’t find Similisan to be very effective, but if it’s working for Kerry, then it’s worth a try. Just be sure to tell Kerry’s vet that you’re using it so that he can monitor its effectiveness and make sure that it’s safe for your dog.

As far as using it long term, definitely consult the vet. Treating pigmentary keratitis properly is important, because not only does it make your dog more comfortable, it also slows or prevents the pigmentation of the cornea, which can cause vision loss.

Tofu LasagnaMakes 12 servings

Once again soy works its magic, turning a high-fat favorite into a healthful entrée.

2 teaspoons olive oil 1 onion, chopped 1 carrot, grated 3 garlic cloves, pressed or minced 2 cups sliced mushrooms (about 1/2 pound) 1 15-ounce can crushed or ground tomatoes 1 28-ounce can tomato sauce 1 teaspoon dried basil 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 pound firm tofu 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce 1 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry 12 ounces dry lasagna noodles (about 10 noodles)

Heat oil in a large pot, then add onion and carrot. Cook over high heat, stirring often until onion is soft, about 5 minutes.

Add garlic and mushrooms and continue cooking until mushrooms are soft, about 5 minutes.

Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, basil, oregano, thyme, fennel seeds, and cayenne. Simmer 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Mash tofu in a mixing bowl, then stir in parsley and soy sauce.

To assemble, spread 1 cup of sauce in a 9”×13” (or larger) baking dish. Cover with a layer of uncooked noodles, half the tofu mixture, and half the spinach.

Spread with half of remaining sauce.

Repeat layers of noodles, tofu, spinach, and sauce. Cover tightly with foil and bake until noodles are tender, about 1 hour. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Note: This lasagna may be assembled up to a day in advance and baked just before serving. The noodles will soften while the lasagna stands, so the baking time can be reduced to 30 minutes.

Rice PuddingMakes 6 servings

Jasmine or basmati rice work well in this pudding. As another low-fat treat, this rice pudding can even be a great breakfast.

1 cup dry white rice 2 cups water 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups soy- or other non-dairy milk 1/3 cup maple syrup or agave nectar 2 tablespoons shredded coconut 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup golden raisins or chopped dried apricots

Combine rice, water, and salt in a saucepan. Cover and cook over low heat 15 minutes. Check occasionally, adding a small amount of water if necessary to prevent sticking.

Stir in non-dairy milk, syrup or nectar, coconut, and vanilla, then cover and cook over low heat for about 20 minutes until thickened. Stir in raisins or apricots and serve.

Stored in a covered container in the refrigerator, leftover Rice Pudding will keep for up to 3 days.

HOLLYWOOD -- You can start calling Ashton Kutcher the multi-million dollar man! Word is he’ll be back next season on ‘Two And a Half Men’ for $1 million an episode. But before he starts shooting his second season, he’ll start shooting ‘Jobs,’ the Steve Jobs biopic about the late Apple tycoon. Looking at pictures of Jobs from his youth reveals he and Ashton could be twins. Job’s former partner at Apple, Steve Wozniak, a former ‘Dancing With the Stars’ contestant, has given his blessing and says, ‘Steve would have approved of Ashton playing him.’

Multiple Oscar-winning director Clint Eastwood is headed back to acting via the upcoming baseball pic ‘Trouble With the Curve,’ filming in Atlanta, hometown of the Braves. But have no fear, Clint still is in control -- he’s producing and his partner, Robert Lorenz, is directing. They’ve rounded up a first-rate cast with Justin Timberlake, Amy Adams, Matthew Lillard, John Goodman and Scott Eastwood. Yes, Scott is Clint’s son (with former flight attendant Jacelyn Reeves) and had roles in ‘Gran Torino,’ ‘Invictus’ and the

January 2013 release of ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D’.And here’s an update on Clint’s ‘A Star Is Born’ with Beyonce. Will Fetters, who wrote the screenplay, admitted he based the role that Tom Cruise may end up playing on Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain, who met a tragic, premature end.

‘The Help’ Oscar-winner Octavia Spencer is trapped on a train full of travelers struggling to co-exist in a world covered in ice and snow in ‘Snow Piercer.’ Her fellow passengers are ‘Captain America’ Chris Evans, ‘Man on a Ledge’ co-star Jamie Bell, Oscar-winner Tilda Swinton

(‘Michael Clayton’) and two-time Oscar nominee John Hurt.

Carol Burnett celebrates her 79th birthday on April 26. Seems like we met only yesterday when I was 11 and she was 26 and starring at The Phoenix Theatre in ‘Once Upon a Mattress,’ later to move to Broadway, while moonlighting on ‘The Garry Moore Show.’ Her variety show, ‘The Carol Burnett Show,’ ran for 11 years on CBS. Carol maintains the networks couldn’t afford to produce a show like hers today, which is one of the reasons she hasn’t return to weekly television.

Outside of a few guest shots on TV shows and voice-overs in two animated films, ‘Horton Hears a Who’ (Ô08) and ‘The Secret World of Arrietty’ this year, she stays close to home with Brian Miller, her husband of 10 years. He’s a drummer and contractor for the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, and 23 years younger than she. Oh Carol, always a trendsetter ... you put the ‘cou-cou’ in cougar before it was even a TV series!

• On May 6, 1911, George Maledon, the man who executed at least 60 men for “Hanging Judge” Isaac Parker, dies of natural causes in Tennessee. Paid $100 for each hanging, he tried to be a conscientious hangman who minimized suffering with a quick death. Maledon considered the job “honorable and respectable work.”

• On April 30, 1927, the Federal Industrial Institution for Women, the first women’s federal prison, opens in Alderson, W.Va. All women serving federal sentences of more than a year were to be brought there, with the vast

majority imprisoned for drug and alcohol charges imposed during the Prohibition era.

• On May 1, 1931, President Herbert Hoover officially dedicates New York City’s Empire State Building. The entire 102-story building went up in just over a year, under budget (at $40 million) and well ahead of schedule. During certain periods of building, the frame grew an astonishing four-and-a-half stories a week.

• On May 5, 1945, in Lakeview, Ore., six people are killed while attempting to drag a Japanese balloon out the woods. The explosive balloon was one of a handful of Japanese attacks against the continental United States, which were conducted by Japanese submarines and later by high-altitude balloons carrying explosives or incendiaries.

• On May 3, 1952, a ski-modified U.S. Air Force C-47

becomes the first aircraft to land on the North Pole. On the flight was Dr. Albert P. Crary, a scientist who in 1961 traveled to the South Pole by motorized vehicle, becoming the first person in history to have stood on both poles.

• On May 4, 1965, San Francisco Giants outfielder Willie Mays hits his 512th career home run to break Mel Ott’s National League record. Mays would finish his career with 660 home runs, good for third on the all-time list at the time of his retirement.

• On May 2, 1972, Steven Spielberg begins filming “Jaws.” The production, which used three mechanical sharks to great effect, enthralled audiences and grossed $458 million in its theatrical release.


• It’s tough to eat home-cooked meals as a single eater -- most recipes are geared for multiple portions, and you probably don’t want to eat the same thing for five days straight. Try this: Get together with some friends and have a potluck. Each guest brings an entree and at least two side dishes, in extra-large portions, and his or her own leftovers containers. Split the food up amongst the guests, packaged as meals. Everyone can cook once and eat for a week.

• “If your baby gets very rashy on her backside, try to give her some “air time” each day. Just an hour a day with no diaper has made a big difference in my baby girl’s rash.” -- H.P. in Illinois

• “Leftover dry-erase calendars make good bingo-card bases. Cut out a 5 by 5-inch section, and use a permanent marker to fill the squares with small random numbers. Make matching call cards from the unused squares. Place the call cards in a sandwich baggie and the rest in a larger plastic bag. Include a couple of dry-erase markers, and you have a set that can be used anywhere (ours is in the car) over and over again.” -- E.W. and S.D. in Oregon

• Did you have too much fun last summer? Be ready to soothe that sun-kissed skin this year with frozen aloe vera. Use an ice-cube tray to freeze aloe vera gel, and let the soothing begin!

• Control kids’ artwork with a digital photo album. Take photos of the best pictures of the month, then arrange them in a scrapbook template and print them out. Keep the pages in a three-ring binder. Label with the child’s name.

ALL THE ANSWERS!!!!

Q: My friends and I watched the Wladimir Klitschko heavyweight-title bout against Jena-Marc Mormeck at our local bar, and were happy to see Wladimir retain his heavyweight title. One of my friends said he heard that Wladimir intends to start up an acting career when he’s done with boxing. Is that true? -- John R., Indianapolis

A: While it’s true that the handsome Ukrainian has dipped his foot in the Hollywood pool -- the documentary “Klitschko,” which centers on his and his older brother Vitali’s rise in the boxing world, has been making quite an impression on festival goers since premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival last year -- Wladimir is keeping his eye firmly on his boxing career.

I spoke with him recently about the acting rumors, and he told me: “While I am asked often about being in movies -- usually it’s a Russian mob character -- it’s always the same thing. I did play myself in ‘Ocean’s Eleven,’ and I did two German comedies. But right now I’m playing the role called the Heavyweight Champion of the World, and it takes all of my time. I really like to play it, and I have to stay focused. So there’s no nonsense with any wannabe Hollywood stuff. If I lose my focus, then I’m going to lose the titles, and I don’t want to do that.”

You can watch Wladimir defend his title July 7 against Tony Thompson, and read my entire engaging interview with the charming heavyweight at www.celebrityextraonline.com.

Q: I am so excited to see “The Avengers,” starring all of my favorite comic-book heroes, especially Captain America. Because of “The Avengers,” does that mean there won’t be a “Captain America: The First Avenger” sequel for a while? -- Fred D., via e-mail

A: Walt Disney Studios recently announced that Chris Evans will again suit up in red, white and blue to save the world from the bad guys. You can expect the sequel to last summer’s blockbuster hit to arrive in theaters April 4,

2014. While it’s still too early to camp out for tickets, at

Q: I’m really sad about this being the final season of “Desperate Housewives.” How are the ladies of Wisteria Lane taking it? -- J.J.

A: If one of Marcia Cross’ latest tweets is any indication, they are as sad as you are. Marcia recently lamented via Twitter: “How do you handle goodbyes? Me, not so well ... already feel so sad and vulnerable ... [I] will miss my ‘Desperate Housewives’ family terribly.”

Readers: Here’s an update on release dates of various HBO projects that have been mentioned in past columns. First, season five “True Blood” premieres on June 10 at 9 p.m. with 12 all-new episodes. Also, “Newsroom” -- the Aaron Sorkin drama starring Jeff Daniels, Emily Mortimer and Sam Waterson -- premieres its 10-episode first season on June 24 at 10 p.m.

• It was British doctor and author Alec Bourne who made the following sage observation: “It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.”

• In 2007, a world record was set off the coast of Brazil when a single wave was caught by 84 surfers.

• Have you ever heard of a book called “Never Again” by Doug Nufer? Probably not -- it’s not on any bestseller lists and hasn’t been reviewed by any notable critics. It’s quite possibly unique in literary history, however; in its entire 192 pages, not a single word -- even basic words such as a, an, the, of and for -- is used twice.

• If you were to stack up a million $1 bills, they would weigh about one ton.

• The Twist dance craze in the 1960s changed the culture in America and spread around the world. Most people don’t realize, though, that the song “The Twist,” which started the fad, wasn’t originally sung by Chubby Checker, though he was the one who sent the single up the charts and has since been irrevocably associated with the dance. The song was originally written and performed by an R&B singer named Hank Ballard. A deejay in Baltimore saw teenagers dancing to Ballard’s song and called Dick Clark, host of “American Bandstand.” Clark loved it and invited Ballard to perform the song on the show, but it didn’t work out. Instead, Clark found someone else to perform the song: Ernest Evans, who changed his name to Chubby Checker. It made his career.

• Colonel Sanders started selling chicken when he was 65 years old, and his only goal was to make $1,000 a month.
