As Minnesota and the nation implement the Affordable Care Act, the Mayo Clinic’s proposal to make Rochester a “destination medical center” is most timely. The proposal has received broad endorsements from Gov. Mark Dayton and members of the Legislature. Mayo Clinic is proposing a $3.5 billion expansion of its facilities in Rochester. Unlike most academic health systems; however, it is not asking for public funds. Rather, it is asking the state to allocate about $500 million over 20 years of the new Mayo- generated state tax revenue to help finance the public infrastructure needed to support the growth. Already the state’s largest employer, Mayo estimates that the destination medical center will create 35,000 to 45,000 new jobs and generate $3 billion in new taxes to the state. Health care has long been Minnesota’s strength with the finest health care resources in the country. It should be our calling card to the nation as a beacon in how to create a healthy population. We rank No. 5 nationally in terms of population health only behind Vermont, Hawaii, New Hampshire and Massachusetts and are ranked first among all states for cardiovascular care, fewest sick days and health status. On the other hand, we’re ranked No. 15 among the 50 states on obesity and 16th on deaths from cancer. Woefully, our underfunded public health of only $43 per person per year puts us at No. 48. The state is well positioned to become the national health care leader. With Mayo as the crown jewel and providers like the University of Minnesota, Allina Health, Fairview, Park Nicollet, Regions and Health East that deliver outstanding patient care, why couldn’t we build on this incredibly strong base to be no #1 in all health categories? Minnesota boasts national leaders in health plans — UnitedHealth Group and its Optimum Health; Health Partners, Blue Cross and Blue Shield, and Medica and is the birthplace and leader of the medical technology cluster, with Medtronic, St. Jude and Boston Scientific, combining with 3M’s prosperous health care business. Just as importantly, there are hundreds of med-tech companies striving to become the next Medtronic. Finally, Minnesota is the national leader in integrative medicine to improve health and healing. The U’s Center for Spirituality and Healing, Allina’s Institute for Health and Healing, The Marsh, Hazelden and Pathways are national leaders in promoting patient-centered care with healing therapies that emphasize individual responsibility. Through the collaboration of these exceptional resources — a committed state government, health plans, health care providers and suppliers, and progressive employers —Minnesota should become the standard-bearer for the nation’s health, attracting people from all over the nation and the world to visit, live and improve their health. Gov. Dayton, please launch a “Healthy Living” initiative focused on healthy eating, regular exercise, reduced alcohol use, smoking and stress that are supported by active programs from every health care organization and employer.

• Patrick wasn’t made a saint until the early 17th century, hundreds of years after his death in the year 461. March 17
is the anniversary of his death and is his religious feast day. • Although we think of the color green when St. Patrick is mentioned, blue was the fi rst color to represent the hero. In 1783, The Order of St. Patrick was founded, the senior order of chivalry and fellowship of knights. The Order of the Thistle already used green for their uniforms and the Order of the Garter used dark blue, so the Order of St. Patrick used a shade of sky blue. Military uniforms were of “St. Patrick’s Blue” and during the time of King Henry VIII, and the fl ag of Ireland was a gold harp on a blue background. The harp remains as the country’s national emblem today. • Between 1846 and 1900, about 2,873,000 people emigrated from Ireland to America, making it the second largest nationality group of immigrants, second only to Germany. The most predominant occupation of those newcomers was that of skilled weaver. • In 2010, about 34.7 million U.S. residents claimed ancestors from Ireland. What were the most common Irish surnames of these folks? The last names of Murphy, Kelly, and O’Sullivan are considered the top three “most Irish.” Other common Irish surnames include Walsh, O’Brien, Byrne, Ryan, O’Connor, O’Neill, and O’Reilly. • Ireland has had its infl uence on geographical locations in the U.S. Seven communities are named Shamrock, including locations in Texas, Oklahoma, and West Virginia. Sixteen other towns are named Dublin, sharing the name with Ireland’s capital. North Carolina is home to the community of Emerald Isle, population 3,655.• St. Patrick’s Day often brings beer and taverns to mind, but that tradition didn’t start in Ireland. The Irish Parliament declared the day a religious holiday in 1903, meaning that all the pubs were closed. In 1970, that bill was overturned and the day became a national holiday rather than a religious observance. • The tradition of a St. Patrick’s Day parade began in America, not Ireland. New York City was home to the fi rst parade, held on March 17, 1762. Irish soldiers serving in the British army organized the celebration to honor the Catholic feast day of Ireland’s patron saint. Today, New York’s parade is the largest in the world with more than 200,000 marchers along the Fifth Avenue route. Close to three million spectators observe the parade, which does not allow automobiles or fl oats. • Canada’s longest-running parade is in the city of Montreal, where it fi rst took place in 1824..
• The three-color Irish fl ag – orange, green, and white – was created in 1848, and is symbolic of the country’s politics. The orange stands for the Irish Protestants, green for the Catholics, and white represents the hope that peace be reached between the two. • Have you ever heard of the trifolium dubium? That’s the name given to the shamrock by botanists. The early Celts referred to the shamrock as the seamroy, and considered this three-leafed clover a sacred plant with mystical properties. Legend has it that St. Patrick used the shamrock to explain the Holy Trinity to fi rst-century Irish pagans. During the 17th century when the English began seizing Irish land and prohibiting the use of their native language and Catholic religion, many Irish started wearing the shamrock as a symbol of pride in their heritage. • The Irish word lobaircin means “small-bodied fellow,” and has been modifi ed a bit to the English word “leprechaun.” These little imps date back to the early Celtic beliefs in fairies, those tiny men and women with magical powers, who used those powers for either good or evil. Leprechauns were seen as grumpy little men, whose duties were to mend the shoes of the other fairies. We’ve all heard of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Folklore claims that the little men have great treasures stored in crocks, and use trickery to protect it from others. If a leprechaun is captured by a human, he has the magical power to grant three wishes in exchange for his release. In 1959, Walt Disney Studios released the fi lm Darby O’Gill and the Little People, which gave us the image of cheerful and friendly leprechauns, but in Irish folklore, they are cantankerous and mischievous. • Indiana’s University of Notre Dame is home to the Fighting Irish, a team that played its inaugural game in November of 1887. In 1918, Knute Rockne took over as head coach and his record of the highest winning percentage (.881) in football history, either college or professional, still stands. Notre Dame has produced the second largest number of players drafted into the NFL, the greatest number of Heisman Trophy winners, and ten former Irish have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Every home game has been sold out since 1966, with the exception of one Thanksgiving Day contest against the Air Force in 1973, when the students had gone home for the holiday.

■ On March 7, 1876, 29-year-old Alexander Graham Bell receives a patent for his revolutionary new invention -- the telephone. Bell’s patent
fi ling beat a similar claim by Elisha Gray by just two hours.
■ On March 4, 1933, at the height of the Great Depression, Franklin Delano Roosevelt is inaugurated as the 32nd president of the United States. In his famous inaugural address, Roosevelt told Americans that “the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” On March 12, 1933, eight days after his inauguration, he gives his fi rst national radio address, or “fi reside chat,” broadcast from the White House. Roosevelt made sure each address was understandable to ordinary Americans.
■ On March 9, 1943, Bobby Fischer is born in Chicago. Fischer went on to become the only American to win the chess world championship. Though he was clearly
the dominant player in the world and had attained the highest chess rating in history, he was forced to retire from international competition in 1975 due to his increasingly erratic and bizarre behavior.
■ On March 8, 1950, Volkswagen, maker of the Beetle automobile, expands its product offerings to include a microbus. Known offi cially as the Volkswagen Type 2, the bus was a favorite mode of transportation for hippies during the 1960s and became an icon of the American counterculture movement.
■ On March 10, 1988, pop singer and teen idol Andy Gibb -- younger brother of Bee Gees Barry, Robin and Maurice -- dies in Britain just days after his 30th birthday. Six months earlier, Gibb had topped the charts with his debut record, “I Just Want to Be Your Everything.” His string of three No. 1 hits with his fi rst three releases is a record that still stands today.
■ On March 11, 1818, “Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus,” is published. The book, by 21-year-old
Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley, is frequently called the world’s fi rst science-fi ction novel.
■ On March 14, 1950, the Federal Bureau of Investigation institutes the “Ten Most Wanted” list in an effort to publicize particularly dangerous fugitives. The creation of the program arose out of a news story in 1949 about the “toughest guys” the FBI wanted to capture.
■ On March 15, 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson addressed a joint session of Congress to urge the passage of legislation guaranteeing voting rights for all. On Aug. 6, 1965, Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act.
■ On March 16, 1985, in Beirut, Lebanon, Islamic militants kidnap American journalist Terry Anderson. On Dec. 4, 1991, Anderson’s captors fi nally released him after 2,455 days. Anderson spent his entire captivity blindfolded. (c) 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

▲ The way some items are packaged these days, you need to be Houdini to get into them. When you’re dealing with blister packs -- items sealed inside a hard plastic wrapper that looks to be heat-crimped on the outside -- try your can opener. You can run it around the edge of stubborn plastic packages, enough to get the item out. It’s more
secure and safer than a carpet knife or razor.
▲ Want to be able to tell at a glance which key belongs to the front door, the shed, your grandma’s house, etc.? Raid your (or your wife or daughter’s) stash of nail polish to paint the tops of keys to color-code them.
▲ “Styrofoam trays that come with meat or in the produce area are very handy helpers for lots of little jobs. If yours are clean and unmarred, wash with hot, soapy water, rinse and dry for later. They are perfect for sending a friend home with leftovers, as you can cover the meal with plastic wrap. There is then no need to return a plate.” -- D. in Indiana
▲ Check your windshield wiper blades. Are they smeary? Before you replace them, use a paper towel and rubbing alcohol to clean the blades. They might have life left in them yet!
▲ Still fi replace season in your neck of the woods? Most of us know not to burn
magazine inserts or anything plastic, but did you know that you CAN add some spice to your fi re? Save the peel from your citrus fruits (oranges, tangerines, grapefruit -- even lemons and limes) to add to your fi re. They burn well, and they smell great!
▲ “We had a piece of linoleum left over when we replaced the kitchen fl ooring. It was almost a perfect size to put over our picnic table. We use it for crafts and whenever we don’t want anything to fall through the boards. It stores neatly against the wall behind our outdoor shelves when we aren’t using it!” -- R. in Minnesota
▲ If you have a light bulb that has broken off in the socket and you need to get it out to replace it, use needle-nose pliers to grab the metal ring and unscrew it. If that doesn’t work, you might be able to use a bar of soap to grab any glass shards sticking out, and unscrew it that way.
▲ When I put on my stockings, I put on my dish gloves fi rst. It sounds silly, but I do not have any snags in my stockings, and the grip of the gloves makes them easy to pull up and adjust for a perfect fi t. -- W.M. in New York

Eleanor Roosevelt was shy as a child but became one of the most outspoken First Ladies to ever live in the White House. • Born October 11, 1884, in New York City, to Anna Hall and Elliott Roosevelt, Anna Eleanor Roosevelt was named after her mother. When Eleanor’s mother died in 1892 she and her siblings went to live with their maternal grandmother. Her father died two years later in 1894. He was the younger brother of Theodore Roosevelt, president of the United States from 1901-1909, • Eleanor was a very shy child but being of wealthy Roosevelt heritage she received an excellent education at Allenswood, a boarding school in London from 1899 to 1902. With the education and maturity, Eleanor developed self-confi dence that lead her to become a leader among women of her era. • After her return from England, Eleanor met a handsome Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) in her affl uent circle of friends. The distant cousins became engaged in 1903 and married in 1905. • According to genealogical records Eleanor and FDR were fi fth cousins, once removed. The closest mutual ancestor was Nicholas Roosevelt. One of his sons was FDR’s great-great-great grandfather; another son was Eleanor’s great-great-great-great grandfather. • President Theodore Roosevelt, Eleanor’s uncle, walked her down the aisle and had the honor of “giving her away” in marriage. • Franklin and Eleanor had six children in the next eleven years; one son died as an infant. They also had to contend with Sara, FDR’s mother who tried to run their lives in their early years of married life! • With Eleanor’s encouragement and support FDR entered politics and served in the New York state senate from 1910-1913. It was in Albany, the state capital of New York, that Eleanor started her own rise to fame as an able political helpmate. • When FDR served as Assistant Secretary of the Navy from 1913-1920 during Woodrow Wilson’s presidency, Eleanor gained tremendous knowledge of Washington and national politics. • When her husband was stricken with polio in 1921, and lost the use of his legs for the remainder of his life. Mrs. Roosevelt devoted her time to caring for him. She also became active in the State Democratic Committee
women’s division to keep FDR’s interest in politics piqued.• Eleanor encouraged and supported her husband as Governor of New York and later, in 1933, as President of the United States. She “became his eyes and ears” and the closest confi dant for her husband, helping and understanding during the trying times of his presidency, which included the “Great Depression” and World War II. • Mrs. Roosevelt changed the role of First Lady. She greeted and entertained thousands with her charm. She expressed her opinions in a daily syndicated newspaper column entitled “My Day,” gave press conferences, travelled all around the country, gave lectures and participated in radio broadcasts. • After FDR's death in 1945, Eleanor was selected as a delegate to the United Nations General Assembly, serving from 1945 to 1953. She became the chair of the UN's Human Rights Commission and helped write the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. She considered this one of her greatest achievements.
• During World War II, U.S. draft-dodgers escaped to Canada and Canadian draft-dodgers escaped to the U.S. Authorities hired to track them down had trouble telling Canadians from Americans. But there was one small difference. In America, children are taught the alphabet with the fi nal letter Z pronounced 'zee'; but Canadians learn it as 'zed'. When suspected draft dodgers were asked to recite the alphabet, the last letter would clearly tell their nationality. The same technique was used to identify draft dodgers during the Viet Nam war.• In the 1200s the French occupied the island of Sicily. Their controversial governing methods caused the Sicilians to revolt many years later, and the French were massacred. However, many of the French had learned the local Italian language well enough that it was hard to tell them from the natives just from their accents. The Sicilians asked all questionable people to pronounce "cicero ceci", which means ‘chickpeas from cicero’. In Italian, the phrase is prounounced with four “ch” sounds in rapid succession. However, in the French language, the “ch” sound had been replaced by the “sh” sound. If it was said as "cheechero chechee" the person walked away, but those that said "sheeshero sheshee" were imprisoned.• When MacArthur was in the Philippines during World War II, Japanese spies would pose as Chinese or Filipino citizens in order to penetrate the defenses. Suspected spies would be asked to pronounce the word 'hula-hula'. Chinese and Filipinos have no trouble pronouncing the ‘l’, but Japanese do not have the ‘l’
sound in their language and would therefore pronounce it 'hura-hura', thereby betraying their nationality.• In the Bible in the Book of Judges, the Gileadites are at war with the Ephraimites. The Ephraimites looked the same and spoke the same language, so when the Gileadites had them trapped, it was hard to tell friend from foe. A Gileadite leader had every person pronounce the word for an ear of corn, which was pronounced 'shibboleth' by the Gileadites, but 'sibboleth' by the Ephraimites. Those who pronounced the word wrong were put to death.• In the 1800s the Turks and Egyptians were at war. The Egyptians invaded the Turk’s province of Syria, where many Egyptians were captured. The Turks did not want to kill any of their Syrian fellowmen, even if they were wearing the Egyptian uniform. Of course, all of the prisoners claimed to be a Syrian. Both Syrians and Egyptians speak Arabic. This time the password was 'gamal' meaning camel. The Syrians say 'jamal' and the Egyptians say 'gamal'. Only those who pronounced it correctly lived.• In 1851, during Napoleon III's coup d'etat, an aide reported to Count de St. Arnaud that a mob had gathered outside. The Count, who had been troubled with a cold, replied, "Ma sacrée toux!" meaning, "my damned cough!" The aide thought he said, "Massacrez tous", which means "massacre all". The phrases sound identical in French. The order to fi re was given and hundreds lost their lives.• In World War II, when Truman, Churchill and Stalin called for the Japanese to surrender, they responded with the word “mokusatsu” which meant they were reserving comment: “We’re thinking it over.” However, an inaccurate translator thought that ''mokusatsu'' meant they were ignoring it. On July 28, the Allies decided to drop the bomb on Hiroshima as a result.

Mr. Allen Swift ( Springfi eld , MA.) received this 1928 Rolls-Royce Piccadilly-P1 Roadster from his
father, brand new - as a graduation gift in 1928.
He drove it up until his death last year.....at the age of 102 !!! He was the oldest living owner of a car that was purchased new. After 82 years of his driving, it has 1,070,000 miles on it, still runs like a Swiss watch, dead silent at any speed and is in perfect cosmetic condition.. That's approximately 13,048 miles per year (1087 per month)...

Traveling is an exciting thing to do. It can even be more exciting to those of us with paranormal gifts. When we are in our environment we are used to the people around us, the energy and the things that typically go bump in the night...or in my case, the day. As I write this, I am on vacation in beautiful Seattle. Flying here was an interesting experience for me. The plane was full. Every seat was taken and I was placed in the middle seat between two large men. I was also in the middle of the airplane. That meant if I wasn’t careful, I was going to be inundated with everyone’s emotions and quite a few fears. To an unprotected Empath, this would feel overwhelming. You wouldn’t know if it was you, anxiety or the person 4 rows ahead of you. You wouldn’t know if your exhaustion was truly yours or belonged to someone sitting at the rear of the plane. In this situation as well as picturing a shield around you and intending it to protect you, I recommend that you occupy yourself deeply in something. Bring your music with your or buy the online movie, put your headphones on and allow
yourself to forget everything around you. This would not be a good time to sit casually and visit with the people next to you. Although this might be fun for awhile, soon you will absorb the feelings and emotions of those around you. You will begin to feel you are carrying the weight of the world on your back. Once you get to your destination you will have more control over what is affecting you. If you are staying in a hotel, great. You will know that it’s just your emotions surrounding you or you will be with someone you are familiar with. However, if you are staying with people in their home, make a study of those around you. It may take you a day or so to acclimate yourself to their emotions, but soon you will feel like yourself and be able to enjoy your time away. And just to be extra careful, wearing a lot of purple along with a mirror necklace can’t hurt. Thank you for your interest and attention. If you’d like to have a reading, please contact me. Until next time, stay in touch with yourself, your life and with those loved ones who have passed on.

What Confucius did not say!What Confucius did not say!
CONFUCIUS DID NOT SAY...
Man who wants pretty nurse, must be patient.
Passionate kiss, like spider web, leads to undoing of fl y.
Lady who goes camping must beware of evil intent.
Man who leaps off cliff jumps to conclusion.Man who runs in front of car gets tired, man who runs behind car gets
exhausted.Man who eats many prunes get good run for money.
War does not determine who is right, it determines who is left.Man who fi ght with wife all day get no piece at night.
It takes many nails to build a crib but only one screw to fi ll it.Man who drives like hell is bound to get there.
Man who stands on toilet is high on pot.Man who live in glass house should change clothes in basement.
Finally CONFUCIUS DID SAY. . ...
"A lion will not cheat on his wife, but a Tiger Wood!"
If past history was all there was to the game, the richest people would be librarians. —Warren Buffet
A price has to be paid for success. Almost invariably those who have reached the summits worked harder and longer, studied and planned more assiduously, practiced more self-denial, overcame more diffi culties than those of us who have not risen so far. —B.C. Forbes
