TIDBITS® TAKES A LOOK ATSTRANGE LAWSUITSby T.A. Tafoya

There is no shortage of lawsuits. Layers keep busy defending weird and wacky cases. Tidbits looks at a few frivolous lawsuits for a laugh, but don’t try them yourself! Frivolous lawsuits rarely make it through the courts and usually end up costing the plaintiff.

• Richard Overton took the advertising mes-sage of Anheuser-Busch a bit too literally. In 1991, he sued the company for $10,000 claim-ing to have suffered emotional distress, men-tal injury and fi nancial loss because drinking Anheuser-Busch beer did not bring to life the beautiful women in tropical settings as was advertised. The supposed false advertising led him to buy and drink more Bud Light. The case was dismissed.• An episode of “Fear Factor” prompted Aus-tin Aitken to sue NBC for $2.5 million in 2005. Aitken claimed to have suffered injury and great pain after watching contestants on the television eat rats. This caused him to become light-headed and dizzy, which resulted in him vomiting and running into a doorway. The judge threw out the lawsuit. turn the page for more!

Q: What's your view of kennel cages? My wife hates the idea of using one to train our dog Sandy, but I disagree. What do you say? -- Jerry in Las Cruces, N.M.

A: I'm personally OK with the concept of crating (or "kennel cages"). It's an effective way to housetrain a puppy (who won't soil a sleeping or living area) and teaches it to stay comfortable and relaxed in a similar con-tainer, the travel crate, which is essential to traveling with your dog.However, I do see frequent instances where the crate is misused, with negative conse-quences for dog and owner alike.The crate also serves as a home or den for your dog. So it always has to be seen by San-dy as a safe place to be, perhaps the safest place in the house for her. If you use the crate to punish Sandy, such as shutting her up in it when she's being hyperactive or disobedient, she could associate it with negative feelings and avoid going into it.

I recommend you learn as much as you can about using the crate to train Sandy. The American Dog Trainers Network has a list of tips on furnishing the crate, getting her to ac-cept it and using it as a positive training tool. Find the list here: http://www.inch.com/~dogs/cratetraining.html. It also includes important safety tips, such as always removing Sandy's collar before putting her into the crate, and making sure she's not left in an environment that's too hot or freezing cold.

To Crate or Not to Crate?

¥ To clean out the drawers of my husband's tool cabinet without disturbing the tools, I tucked a knee-high panty hose leg over my vacuum cleaner wand. Most things stayed put, but the one or two small pieces of hardware that got sucked up were easily retrieved. I did this on his workbench too. I picked up all the dust and shavings along with the stray pieces of hardware. I pulled the hardware out of the hose leg, and they were in a tidy pile for him to put away. -- U.L. in Kansas

¥ Ripen a green tomato by wrapping it in a sheet of newspaper or placing it in a small, plain paper bag. Leave it on the counter, and check it daily until ripe.

¥ To keep ice cream from dripping out of the bot-tom of a cone, just place a small marshmallow or a piece of marshmallow in the bottom of the cone before you fill it.

¥ Our family loves to make our own pizza, and we purchase dough from a pizzeria. On pizza nights, I pick up the dough first thing on the way home from work. I get it close to where I work and let it sit in a bowl in the car while I pick up the kids and drive home. It takes about 45 minutes, so it's risen nicely while we've been on the go. -- E.F. in New York

¥ If you've just purchased an expensive electronic item, take the packaging to a recycling center rather than advertise your purchase by putting the box at the curb. If you aren't able to take it some-where, cut the box into uniform pieces and bind them together, nonprinted side facing out.

LAWSUITS (continued):• In 2006, Allen Heckard sued Michael Jordan and Nike founder Phil Knight for $832 million. In the suit he claimed to suffer defamation, permanent injury and emotional pain and suffer-ing because he was often mistaken for Michael Jordan. He said that continual public harass-ment because of the alleged resemblance “has troubled his nerves.” Heckard dropped the lawsuit later that year. • After eating Cap’n Crunch with Crunch Berries over a period of four years, Janine Sugawara realized that the “Crunch Berries” in the cereal were not real fruit. She filed a class-action suit against Quaker’s parent company PepsiCo in 2009 for fraud and breech of warranty, seeking full restitution of all money gained through mis-leading labeling and a court order forcing Quak-er to disclose to the public the true composition of Crunch Berries. The case was dismissed.• In 1910, Olaf Olverson was desperate for cash, so he sold his body to the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, for medical research after his death. A year later, he inherited a fortune. He tried to “buy himself back” from the institute, but they wouldn’t cooperate. When Olverson re-fused to donate his body, the institute sued him for breach of contract. Olverson lost the case. The judge ruled that he not only owed his body to the Institute, he owed them money for the two teeth he had removed without the Institute’s per-mission, saying Olverson had illegally tampered with their property.

¥ On Aug. 15, 1914, the Panama Canal, the Ameri-can-built waterway across the Isthmus of Panama connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, is inau-gurated. U.S. engineers moved nearly 240 million cubic yards of earth and spent close to $400 million in constructing the 40-mile-long canal.

¥ On Aug. 16, 1948, baseball legend George Herman “Babe” Ruth dies from cancer in New York City. For two days, tens of thousands of fans stood in line to pay their last respects. Ruth hit a record 60 home runs in the 1927 season and led the Yankees to seven pennants.

¥ On Aug. 17, 1877, William “Billy the Kid” Bonney kills his first man, an Arizona blacksmith. Just how many men Billy the Kid killed is uncertain. He report-edly once claimed he had killed 21 men, “one for every year of my life.”

¥ On Aug. 18, 1590, John White, the governor of the Roanoke Island colony in present-day North Caro-lina, returns from a supply trip to England to find no trace of the 100 colonists he left behind. The only clue to their disappearance was the word "CROAT-OAN" carved into the palisade around the settle-ment.

¥ On Aug. 19, 1960, in the USSR, captured American U-2 pilot Francis Gary Powers is sentenced to 10 years imprisonment for his confessed espionage. Only 18 months into his sentence, the Soviets released him in exchange for Rudolf Abel, a senior KGB spy who was caught and convicted in the United States five years earlier.

¥ On Aug. 20, 1989, Lyle and Erik Menendez shoot their parents, Jose and Kitty, to death in the den of the family’s Beverly Hills, Calif., home. Police were finally tipped off to the brothers by the girlfriend of Erik’s psychotherapist, who’d taped Erik’s confes-sion in counseling sessions.

¥ On Aug. 21, 1920, Daphne Milne, wife of English writer A.A. Milne, gives birth to a son, Christopher Robin Milne. When Christopher Robin received a stuffed bear as a present, his father began writing a series of stories about the bear. Christopher Robin was immortalized in A.A. Milne's books "Winnie-the-Pooh" and "The House at Pooh Corner."


LAWSUITS (continued):• Bobby Mackey’s Music World in Wilder, Ken-tucky, was sued by J.R. Costigan in 1993. He claimed a ghost “punched and kicked him” while he was using the bar’s restroom one night. He sued the bar for $1,000 in damages and demanded that a warning sign of the ghost’s presence be put up in the restroom. The club’s lawyer filed a motion to dismiss the case, citing the difficulty of getting the ghost into court to testify for the defense. The case was dismissed.• In 1976, at the University of California Los Angeles Medical Center, doctors removed John Moore’s spleen in a successful effort to cure his cancer. Doctors later found that the spleen possessed unique cancer-fighting cells. Ex-periments with the cells led to a new discovery worth an estimated $3 billion. Moore tried to sue the University of California, claiming his spleen was pirated. The spleen had belonged to him so he should share in the commercial value. He sued for part of the profits, but in 1990, 14 years after the operation, Moore lost the case.• Computer designers at Apple codenamed a new computer model Sagan in 1993. Tradi-tionally, this is an honor. “You pick a name of someone you respect,” an employee explained, “and the code is only used while the computer is being developed. It never makes it out of the company.” This didn’t matter to Carl Sagan; his lawyers complained that the code was “an illegal usurpation of his name for commercial purposes” and demanded that it be changed. The designers changed it to BHA, which stood for “Butt-Head Astronomer.” Sagan sued again, contending “Butt-Head” is “defamatory on its face.” Apple won.

LAWSUITS (continued):• Chicago lawyer Frank Zaffere sued his ex-fi an-cé Maria Dillon when she broke off their engage-ment in 1992. Zaffere fi led a suit for $40,310.48 to cover his “lost courting expenses.” He did send a letter along with court papers to his ex stating: “I am still willing to marry you on the conditions herein below set forth: 1) We proceed with our marriage within 45 days of the date of this letter; 2) You confi rm [that you] . . . will forever be faithful to me; 3) You promise . . . that you will never lie to me again about anything.” He closed with: “Please feel free to call me if you have any questions or would like to discuss any of the matters discussed herein. Sincerely, Frank.” The case was dismissed and so was the wedding.• Andrea Pizzo, a former student of the Univer-sity of Maine, sued her alma mater for failing to protect her from a cow with a “dangerous dispo-sition.” While taking a class in livestock man-agement, a 400-plus-pound Bovine head-butted her into the wall of its pen. Pizzo suffered knee and wrist injuries, so she sued the college for an unspecifi ed amount. In her suit she claims the school “should have known that the heifer had a personality problem.” Verdict unknown.• Cynthia Economou was sued by Karl Lambert in Florida court; he claimed that Economou stole his foot. Lambert’s foot was severed in a car accident, and Economu, the paramedic on site, took his mangled limb to help in the train-ing of her body recovery dog. In her defense, Economu said, “It was an unrecognizable mass of fl esh ... It wasn’t a clean cut. You couldn’t even recognize it as a foot ... If I had thought it was somehow re-attachable and usable, I would have gone to my commander.” She was charged with second-degree petty theft and received six months of probation.

Hi this is Eunice from Diet Center. Can you believe that it is already August? The year is just fl ying bye! Have you given up? You might be thinking, “What are you talking about”? Many people make new years resolutions to lose weight and get healthy, stop smoking, drink less alcohol, go back to school, get a bet-ter job, manage debt, manage stress, recycle, save money, take a trip, and volunteer to help others. If you did make goals for 2011 how are you doing at reaching those goals? With family, the economy, work, responsibili-ties, and day to day life it is easy for goals to just slip through our fi ngers sometimes with out us even realizing it. Let’s just focus on the fi rst two for a moment. Losing weight and get-ting healthy. Did you know that the National Weight Control Registry (NWCR) monitors people who have successfully maintained a weight loss of at least 30 pounds for at least a year? To be hon-est I did not know that the NWCR even existed until I started working on this tip of the week. Rena Wing, Ph. D. and James O Hill, Ph. D. established the registry in 1994. Registry members have lost an average of 66 pounds and maintained their weight loss for 5 ½ years. How did they do that? Researchers have found that most people who are successful have similar experiences. For example, most members…. 1. Watch their calories 2. Consume breakfast daily 3. Monitor their food and calorie intake regu-larly4. Know what their weight is5. Engage in about one hour of daily physical activity6. Watch less than 10 hours of TV per week.

If you have not been as successful at meeting your goals please don’t give up. Researchers have also found that most of the dieters have failed several times in the past. So while adopt-ing these behaviors may seem overwhelming and challenging at times, try not to get dis-couraged. If you fall off track, just get back on program. More than half of the registry members (55%) lost weight with the help of a weight loss program. The more you practice weight loss strategies, the easier it will get. Don’t give up! If you have not been successful at reaching or maintaining those weight loss goals Diet Center is here to help you. Diet Center has 4 proven weight loss programs to get you to your goal weight and sta-bilization and maintenance programs to teach how to keep the weight off. Please allow us to help you so that you can successfully reach your weight loss goals, too! Please call us today at 928-753-5066 or stop by 1848 Hope Ave in Kingman. Please let me know what you think of Diet Cen-ter’s tip of the week on Facebook. Just go on to facebook and in the search box type in Diet Cen-ter. Diet Center of Kingman should just pop up. Thank you for reading Diet Center’s tip of the week.

Don’t Give Up

Overcoming the Odds:Falling from the SkyWhat would you do if you were in an airplane miles above the earth and the unthinkable hap-pened — the plane breaks apart, and you sud-denly fi nd yourself in a free fall? If you were above 10,000 feet, you would quickly loose con-sciousness due to thin air. When you reached 10,000 feet, you may wake up. A free fall from 35,000 feet would take about three minutes with a landing speed of around 125 miles per hour! (Of course, the time and rate of speed depend on your weight and the amount of air drag cre-ated by the position of your body.) The following stories are about two amazing survivors of free-falling experiences. • In April 1944, Pilot Joe Herman of the Royal Australian Air Force and his crew were on a mis-sion to bomb munitions factories at Bochum. After dropping its bombs, the plane was struck by enemy fi re. Herman ordered his crew to bail out, but before he could secure his parachute, the plane exploded, and he was thrown into the night air. • As he was falling, he bumped into what he thought was debris. In a panic, Herman grabbed on, but then realized it was the leg of mid-upper gunner, John Vivashand, who at that moment was opening his parachute. The parachute in-fl ated slowly, which helped Herman maintain his fi rm grasp. The two men came down safely with Herman hitting the ground fi rst. His only injury was two broken ribs.

BICYCLES (continued):• In the 1890s, the first “modern” bicycles

appeared: chain-driven vehicles with simi-larly-sized tires. These were safer than the high-wheel models (and were even called “safety bicycles” as a result), but proved a step backwards in comfort. While the long spokes of high-wheel bikes absorbed bumps and ruts, the smaller wheels on these new bikes, particularly when coupled with the hard-rubber tires of the era, made for jarring, unpleasant rides.

• More than a million bicycles were sold in the United States by the time 1895 rolled around, but one last improvement would propel the bicycle into the must-own category: the pneu-matic tire. Under the guidance of the Pope Manufacturing Company (which made bi-cycles), the Hartford Rubber Works produced America’s first pneumatic tires in 1895. Pro-viding a much softer ride, they soon became a standard feature on all bicycle models.

• Dozens of smaller-scale improvements boosted the speed, comfort, longevity and performance of bicycles during the 20th century. As women began to find them as necessary as men, two varieties of bicycle were made. Men’s bikes were built with an extra stabilizer bar across the top of the bike. Women’s bikes omitted the bar, providing for easier mounting and dismounting of the vehicle when wearing skirts.

• The 1970s saw the development of two bi-cycle extremes. First came bicycles that took you nowhere. Otherwise known as exercise bikes, these training aids first hit the home market at the beginning of the decade. Then, as time went on and the energy crisis sent fuel prices skyrocketing, mopeds appeared. These bicycle/motorcycle hybrids, most popular with city-centered business workers, could either be pedaled like a regular bike or powered using a small, low-powered gasoline engine.

¥ It was American ventriloquist and comedian Willie Tyler who made the following sage observation: "The reason lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place is that the same place isn't there the second time."

¥ Even flight attendants have their own pa-tron saint, as declared by Pope Paul XXIII in 1962: Saint Bona of Pisa.

¥ Many people believe that the Gutenberg Bible, which came from the presses of Jo-hannes Gutenberg in the 1450s, is the first example of a printed book, but that's not true; it's the first book printed using movable type. The oldest known printed book is actu-ally the "Diamond Sutra," which was printed in China more than 550 years before the Gutenberg Bible.

¥ In many Middle Eastern cultures, it is traditional to celebrate a wedding with five events. The first is the engagement party, during which the bride-to-be changes clothes several times. When the bride and groom sign the marriage contract there is another party, again with numerous changes of cloth-ing by the bride. The day before the wedding there is a henna party, during which the bride and others are painted with elaborate de-signs that are thought to ward off evil spirits. The reception takes place after the wedding, and guests are often given five almond piec-es, each piece symbolizing one of the sacred wedding wishes: health, happiness, wealth, longevity and fertility. Seven days after the wedding is the final celebratory event, known as sabaa, which is for women only and is analogous to the wedding shower we have in the West.

¥ The town of North Pole, Alaska, is actually 1,700 miles south of the planet's geographi-cal North Pole.***Thought for the Day: "The nice thing about egotists is that they don't talk about other people." -- Lucille S. Harper


FALLING FROM THE SKY (continued):• On Christmas Eve, 1971, LANSA Flight 508 from Lima, Peru, to Pucallpa, Peru, was struck by lightning at 21,000 feet. A fire started, and systems began failing, causing the pilots to loose control of the aircraft. The plane soon went into a dive. • The turbulent forces on the wings caused them to tear away from the aircraft as it came crashing down into a mountainous region of the Amazon. Amongst the debris, 17-year-old Ju-liane Margaret Koepcke regained consciousness after an unknown amount of time, still strapped in her seat. • All the other 91 people aboard — six crew members and 85 passengers, including Ko-epcke’s mother, were dead. Koepcke miracu-lously sustained only a broken collarbone. She spent the next 10 days alone and lost in the jungle with only a bag of candy for food. • Her father once told her to survive in the jungle, follow water. Koepcke waded from tiny streams to larger ones until on the tenth day, she made it to the bank of the Shebonya River where she saw a canoe tethered to the shore-line. • After climbing up an embankment, she found a hut. As it turned out, it belonged to a group of lumberjacks. They found her the next day. The incident was seen as a miracle of divine intervention in Peru, and free-fall statistics seem to support this thought. Her story has been the subject of two films, the most recent being a Werner Herzog documentary called “Wings of Hope.”

LAWSWhat are laws, and how do they govern our lives? Here is a brief look at the intended mean-ing and purpose of laws.• Everyone and everything lives by some kind of law. Even if you lived on a deserted island by yourself, your life and activities would still be ruled by the law of gravity and other natural, universal laws. Even ants live by their own set of laws.• The Babylonian king Hammurabi is credited as the fi rst in history to record a set of written laws in about 1786 B.C. They are known as the Code of Hammurabi. • All civilized societies depend on laws to defi ne the structure in which people relate to one an-other and to keep order. Laws affect all aspects of society, including everything from economics to social interactions.• Yet laws alone do not ensure order and peace-ful relations. Every law must be enforced to carry any weight. In many countries and com-munities today, laws are enforced by police and a system of courts.• There are many different classifi cations of laws. Contract law governs both simple and complex business transactions. Property law outlines the rights and obligations concerning the ownership of real estate (land and buildings) as well as movable objects like cars, televisions, etc. • Financial assets are overseen by trust laws, while tort law allows people to seek compensa-tion if their rights are infringed upon or their property is damaged.

LAWS (continued):• Labor laws and safety standards ensure that our workplaces are safe. Restaurants and gro-cery stores we frequent are governed by health codes that keep us safe from spoiled, dirty or diseased food products that could make us sick.• Written works, movies, music and other forms of expression are protected from being copied by copyright laws. And when using the Internet, we are subject to emerging laws governing this new medium.• America came into existence due to a dis-pute over laws. Whether or not the laws of the British Empire should apply to the colonies in North America was the question, and it found colonists and the crown staunchly adhering to opposing answers. The result was war and the American Revolution.• Today in the United States, the Constitution outlines our most basic rights and is the basis for the creation of law, the protection of human rights and the election of political representa-tives.• Society is not always in agreement with the laws that regulate our conduct or how the insti-tutions that implement the laws behave. Often-times, we are in rebellion against some of their provisions. • The Greek philosopher Aristotle is credited with saying, “Even when laws have been written down, they ought not always to remain unal-tered.”• As the population grows and technology ad-vances, the need for ever-changing laws exists. New and improved rules are written every day. One of the best designs of the American legal system is the power of the individual to collec-tively make or change laws through the right to vote.
