This week, Tidbits is tuning into the facts on several famous composers who brought us some of the world’s favorite music. • Although many folks lump all of “classical music”
together, there are actually four main periods of classification based on the time frame and characteristics of the music. The music of each period has traits that distinguish it from another. The Baroque Period is considered from 1600-1750, with its complex melodies composed by Bach, Handel, and Vivaldi, among others. During the Classical Period from 1750-1825, composers such as Mozart, Haydn, and Beethoven wrote music with well-defined form, for example, the sonata, symphony, and concerto. Music composed during the Romantic Period from 1825 to the early 20th century became more expressive and emotional. Tchaikovsky, Wagner, Brahms, and Schumann were some of the main composers during this era. The music of the 20th

Hey All!Thanks for picking up this issue
of Tidbits, we hope you enjoy it.Well, the warmer weather seems
to be here and I hope it holds out for the upcoming 4th of July Week-end. I hope you have some plans to take a break and relax. Lynette and I are going to do our best to not
think about work for at least a couple of days... right, we'll see how that goes!
Please stay safe, enjoy and celebrate the country's birth-day responsibly. Ok, with that said, let's talk about beer. Not so much the drinking of it, but the creation of said bev-erage. I got into brewing about five years ago. We were at a local 2nd hand store and I came across one of those starter kits that makes a couple of gallons. It said everything was included, so I picked it up. The first batch turned out pretty well and I was hooked. Since then I have picked up other equipment and now I think I can brew up to about seven cases at one time. The best part for me is the variations you can achieve for different flavors. Our all-time favor-ite is one called Hickory Switch Porter that actually calls for Liquid Smoke to be added to the brew keg. It makes a darker beer with BBQ style aftertaste. Other ones I have done included Habanero Beer with peppers from our own garden (a little spicy for me, personally), Blueberry Beer with canned fruit that made more of a sparkling berry cider

• Having a yard sale? Here’s a great way to put out extra signs when you don’t have a way to stake them into the ground: “Write your
sign advertising your yard sale on the sides of a big box. Place it where you want it, and add a large rock to the inside, then tape shut. We did this when we had no poles to tape signs to or any other way to get them to stand up. It worked really well!” -- D.R. in Georgia
• Avoid calling the pediatrician’s office on Monday mornings for routine business. Wait until the afternoon. All the parents with mildly sick children over the weekend will be calling to consult with the doctor and nurses first thing when the office opens.
• If you drop an egg, sprinkle with salt before you attempt to clean it up. The salt binds the whites, which will not spread, mak-ing pickup easier!
• “My kids had kind of an obsession with colorful Duck tape in the past year, and we made some “beach bags” to keep our elec-tronics safe at the pool, lake and beach. We carefully covered a variety of sizes of zipper-top self-sealing bags with the tape, cre-ating tough, colorful pouches in which we can store cellphones, etc., to keep them safe from water damage.” -- W.L. in North Carolina
• You can sharpen scissors by cutting folded aluminum foil into small strips.
• The best time of day to water your lawn is the evening. The cooler temperatures allow the water to sink into the soil instead of evaporating with the heat of the day. Always follow your city or county guidelines on watering times for your area.

century abandoned structural rules and introduced news styles and ideas, composed by such geniuses as Ravel, Stravinsky, Debussy, and Shostakovich.
• Ludwig von Beethoven was becoming a well-known composer at age 30 and was already experiencing the disastrous indications of deafness.
• Beethoven experienced severe tinnitus, conveying his feelings in his writings,” My ears whistle and roar incessantly, night and day. I can say that I am leading a miserable life.” By age 31, he had lost 60% of his hearing, and by 46, he was completely deaf. Several causes have been suggested including lead poisoning or typhus. An autopsy revealed that three small bones of his inner ear were fused together, as well as being covered in lesions. Although Beethoven’s public performances lessened due to his deafness, his composing continued, writing his breathtaking Ninth Symphony after completely losing his hearing.
• Beethoven composed nine symphonies, 16 string quartets, 32 piano sonatas, five piano concertos, a violin concerto, and an opera. This doesn’t begin to include the enormous amount of his chamber music and piano compositions. Careful listeners to his music can detect his intense emotions and love of nature. Various instruments create the sound of a wind and rain storm in the country, following by the serenity of the storm’s end. His use of trills on the violin imitate the chirping of insects and birds, while soft instrumental sounds mimic a flowing brook.
• Even folks who are not classical music fans will most likely recognize compositions by Peter Tchaikovsky, the composer of The Nutcracker Suite, Sleeping Beauty, Romeo & Juliet, and Swan Lake. This Russian composer was able to read French and German by the age of six. He entered law school and worked as a clerk but took music lessons on the

side, beginning to compose. He married in his mid-30s, but left his wife after a few weeks, claiming she “possessed little intelligence.”
• Tchaikovsky was befriended by an anonymous benefactor, a very wealthy widow who financed him while he composed. The pair exchanged more than 1,000 letters over the next 13 years, but, upon her insistence, never met face to face. The widow abruptly terminated the relationship, claiming she was broke, an unfounded claim. Tchaikovsky never heard from her again. His death remains a mystery, with some claiming he killed himself. The more accepted explanation is death from cholera after drinking contaminated drinking water. His death came just one week after the premiere of his Symphony Pathetique, considered by many to be his greatest work.
• Considered the world’s first real child prodigy, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart began studying violin and harpsichord at age 3. At 5, he was performing at the University of Salzburg and before Vienna’s Imperial Court the following year. He was 6 when he began composing minuets and other short pieces. His first symphony came along at age 8 and an opera at 12. Mozart received all of his education from his father, and never attended a school. He frequently experienced anxiety, loneliness, and sadness, and occasionally exhibited the symptoms of Tourette’s Syndrome and bipolarism. Although he only lived to age 35, he composed more than 600 pieces, including 68 symphonies, 27 piano concertos, horn concertos, violin and piano sonatas, and many volumes of string quartet music.
• The cause of Mozart’s death has never been definitely determined. It’s been hypothesized as everything from “severe miliary fever” to trichinosis, mercury poisoning, and rheumatic fever. In all, researchers have speculated on nearly 120 different causes of death.
• Robert Schumann unintentionally ruined his chance at a career as a pianist when he experimented with a device claiming to strengthen fingers. Johann Logier had designed a contraption, the “Chiroplast” that pulled the fingers toward the back of the hand, stating that it would increase finger flexibility and strength. Permanently debilitated by the invention, Schumann diverted his efforts toward composing and became one of the greatest composers of the Romantic Period. However, the artist was plagued

NOTEWORTHY INVENTORS:
LES PAUL Eric Clapton, Bob Marley, and Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page are just a few of the thousands of musicians who have chosen to play a Les Paul guitar. But Les Paul wasn’t just the inventor of a phenomenal electric guitar. Follow along and learn about his many accomplishments. • Les Paul was 8 when he began playing the harmonica,
followed by the guitar. At age 9, he had already built a crystal radio. Wanting to play the harmonica and guitar at the same time, as a teenager he fashioned a holder from a metal coat hanger, shaping it to go over his shoulders, and soon he had his first patent.
• Soon afterward, Paul stuck the needle of his parents’ record player into the surface of his acoustic guitar, and was struck with the idea of an electric guitar. Before long, he had wired a phonograph needle to his guitar and connected it to a radio speaker to amplify his acoustic guitar. However, Paul was unhappy with the hollow-body guitar, and determined to make a solid-body one that would have less feedback and a richer sound because of the wood’s mass.
• He happened to live across from a railroad track where workers would throw defective rails under a bridge. Retrieving a cast-off, Paul whittled it down to a 4x4 piece, with a neck, bridge, pickup, and tuners attached, naming it “The Log.” In 1940, the Epiphone guitar factory helped produce a more attractive version with curved sides and an Epiphone fretboard.
• Paul’s work was slowed down in 1941 when he was
experimenting with improvements to his guitar and was severely electrocuted, an injury that required two years of recuperation.
• Unhappy with the way his own recordings sounded, at the suggestion of crooner Bing Crosby, Paul built his own recording studio. It was here that he perfected multi-tracked recordings. His method was to first record a track onto a disc, then record himself playing another part with the first, both of which were mixed together onto a new track. The process was repeated adding a third layer, then another and another, each time mixing it with all the previous layers on a fresh disc. Paul also experimented with playing some of the parts at half speed, then playing them back at the actual rate. He fabricated his disc-cutter assembly using auto parts, including a flywheel from a Cadillac. His recording of “Lover, When You’re Near Me” required about 500 acetate discs to complete, on which he played eight different electric guitar parts. He later switched to magnetic tape, commissioning Ampex to build the first eight-track recorder. Les Paul was also responsible for the invention of echo, delay, and reverb.
• In 1948, Paul was in a near-fatal auto accident, which sent his Buick convertible off the side of an overpass and 20 feet (6.1 m) into a ravine. He nearly lost his right arm, but doctors were able to set it to a 90-degree angle with seven screws which enabled him to play the guitar.
• In his 90s, Les Paul still hadn’t give up inventing. Having to wear two hearing aids, he was dissatisfied with their quality. He was still playing weekly gigs in New York City, but spent his free time working on improving hearing aids. He passed away in 2009 at age 94.

than a beer, Coffee Beer with ground beans added to the brew keg... you know, for when you are camping and you are not sure if it is time to switch from coffee to beer... a transitional beverage, if you will.
The process is extremely basic, and why not, we have been making ale since the fifth millennium BC in places like ancient Egypt and Mesopota-mia. The one thing I learned is that patience produces the best beer, similar to the idea behind aging wine.
Lynette and I wish you the most fun and safe holiday possible! See you soon!

throughout much of his life by anxiety, panic attacks, and fits of rage and violence. Two years before his death, he attempted suicide by throwing himself into the Rhine River. Rescued by passing fishermen, Schumann was admitted to an asylum, where he died two years later at 46.
• The eccentric French composer Erik Satie wore nothing but identical gray velvet suits and called himself The Velvet Gentleman. He walked across Paris each day, a round trip of about 10 miles, carrying a hammer in his pocket for protection. As a youth, he was enrolled in the Paris Conservatory, but had nothing but scorn for the institution. He remained there only to avoid military service, and was labeled “untalented” and “worthless” by his teacher, receiving the nickname of “laziest student in the Conservatory.” Students were allowed to serve just one year in the military rather than the normal five. When Satie was drafted, he served less than a year, deliberately contracting bronchitis to obtain a release. He went on to become a popular composer, with his most famous compositions Trois Gymnopedies. When he died of cirrhosis of the liver, there was so much garbage in his apartment that friends threw out two carloads before his papers and manuscripts could be located.

• It was Nora Joyce, wife to the Irish novelist James Joyce, who wrote the notoriously difficult -- and influential -- stream-of-consciousness novel “Ulysses,” who asked her husband, “Why don’t you write books people can read?”
• You might be surprised to learn that contemporary model and actress Brooke Shields is descended from that notorious figure of the Italian Renaissance, Lucretia Borgia,
who was suspected of such crimes as adultery, incest and murder.
• In this era of helicopter parenting, some are shocked to learn that in the 1960s, nearly half of all children in America walked to and from school by themselves.
• What do “Where’s Wal-do,” “Where the Sidewalk Ends,” “My Friend Flicka,” “Brown Bear, Brown Bear,
What Do You See?” and “Harriet the Spy” have in com-mon? Aside from being books meant for a young audi-
ence, all of these titles have been banned at one time or another.
• There are about the same number of chickens as there are humans on the planet.
• If you’re like 83 percent of pet owners who responded to a recent survey, you feel that you receive more uncon-ditional love from your pet than from your kids, your best friend or even your romantic partner.
• I’m sure you’ve heard the term “Podunk” used to describe a small, unimportant town, but you might not know where the word came from. It seems that a Native American tribe in Connecticut was known as the Podunk, and a nearby river was called by the same name. Local small towns on the river were referred to as “Podunk,” too, and so the word entered the lexicon.

• On July 10, 1887, an 80-foot-high con-crete dam breaks in Zug, Switzerland,
releasing a wall of water that kills 70 people. Rescue boats were ineffective, as they capsized in the roiling waters.• On July 7, 1930, construction of the Hoover Dam begins. Over the next five years, 21,000 men would work to produce what would be the largest dam of its time, as well as one of the world’s largest manmade structures.• On July 6, 1946, FBI agents arrest George “Bugs” Moran in Kentucky. Once one of the top organized crime figures in America, Moran had been reduced to small bank robberies. His criminal career took an abrupt downturn after the infa-mous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre in 1929.• On July 8, 1951, Paris celebrates its 2,000th birthday. The history of Paris can be traced back to a Gallic tribe known
as the Parisii, who settled an island (known today as Ile de la Cite) in the Seine River, which runs through present-day Paris.• On July 9, 1960, President Dwight Eisenhower and Soviet Premier Ni-kita Khrushchev trade verbal threats over the future of Cuba. Khrushchev fired the first shot when he warned
that the Soviet Union was prepared to use its missiles to pro-tect Cuba from U.S. intervention.

SOUTH DAKOTA QUICK FACTS• Sculptor Gutzon Borglum began drilling into the 6,200-foot Mount Rushmore in 1927. Creation of the Shrine to Democracy took 14 years and cost a mere $1 million, though it's now deemed priceless. • The Pioneer Auto Museum in Murdo details more than 250 rare automobiles including the infamous Tucker and Edsel. .• The Crazy Horse mountain carving now in progress will be the world's largest sculpture (563' high, 641' long, carved in the round).
