EVERGREEN WITH ENVY!by Patricia L. Cook
At this time of year, Christmas trees, evergreen wreaths, garland and more are displayed all around us. This Tidbits examines some fascinating facts about evergreens. • Most people only think of conifers like pine, fir,
cedar and spruce trees when they think of the term “evergreen.” This is not incorrect because most co-nifers qualify as evergreens, but many additional plants that are not conifers are evergreens as well. Evergreens have “foliage that persists and remains green throughout the year.”
• The word “conifer” comes from the Latin words conus (cone) and ferre (to bear). The word conifer literally means “cone bearing.” While many coni-fers are evergreen, some are not. Larches and bald cypress trees are conifers that lose their needles ev-ery fall.
• There are thousands of species of evergreen trees, shrubs and smaller plants. Just within the pine fam-ily there are 115 species. While pines and many oth-er evergreens have needle-like foliage, some have leaves, fronds (ferns and palms) and other types of foliage.
• Even though the name implies it, evergreens are not always green. Many evergreens actually have foli-age that is red, brown, yellow and other colors.
• Some popular evergreens not previously mentioned are: hemlock, laurel, holly, eucalyptus, rhododen-dron, magnolia, palm, juniper and redwood. Even some oaks are evergreen.
• Evergreens are found in hot and cold, humid and dry climates on every continent but Antarctica.
• Goose Island State Park in Aransas County in south-ern Texas is the home of the “Big Tree.” Named the State Champion Coastal Live Oak in 1969, this tree is thought to be one of the largest in America. The

Live oaks are known for their massive spread, and there are many in the Southern states around old historic homes. This Texas tree is truly impressive.
• Washington, the only state named after a president, is famous for its rainy weather and large forests of evergreen trees. Nicknamed the “Evergreen State,” western Washington actually has rain forests in the Olympic Mountains.
• Evergreen Point Bridge between Seattle and the eastern shore of Lake Washington is the longest floating bridge in the world. It was built with a line of concrete pontoons linked by cables and attached to ordinary bridges on each end. The total length of the bridge is 7,578 feet (2310 m). It was constructed this way because the bottom of Lake Washington is too muddy for a standard bridge. The bridge con-tributed greatly to the growth of the eastern shore, with cities like Bellevue and Redmond. (These cit-ies contribute a lot of “green” to the Washington economy thanks to companies like computer giant Microsoft being located there.)
• Most evergreen Christmas trees are not harvested from forests. In fact, 98 percent of the trees sold on holiday lots are grown on tree farms. Areas close to national forests with permit programs for cutting down live trees do have quite a following of folks who like to snowshoe or hike to get their trees, but the Christmas tree lots definitely corner the market on sales.
• According to the National Christmas Tree Associa-tion (NCTA), there are currently 350 million Christ-mas trees growing on tree farms in the United States. All of the 50 states and Canada produce Christmas trees. The top producing states are Oregon, North Carolina, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Washington.
• The most common evergreens used for Christmas trees are balsam fir, Douglas fir, Fraser fir, noble fir, Scotch pine and white pine.
• The Christmas tree for the White House has been presented to the First Lady by the NCTA member that wins the National Christmas Tree Contest each year since 1966 when Lyndon Johnson was presi-dent. The tree is presented shortly after Thanksgiv-ing to be displayed in the Blue Room at the White House. The tree must be 18.5 feet (5.6 m) tall and fit through a doorway that is 58 inches (1.47 m) wide.
• The National Christmas Tree is a live tree in Wash-ington, D.C., that is lit each year at the start of on-going ceremonies called the “Christmas Pageant of Peace.” The beautiful evergreen tree is a Colorado blue spruce that was transplanted from York, Penn-sylvania, in 1978. The tree was the perfect size and shape, had no disease and was growing in similar soil conditions to what it would be living in at its new home in Washington.
• The tree was originally a Mother’s Day gift to Mrs. William E. Myers in York. When National Park Ser-vice (NPS) employees asked the Myers family about donating the tree, they agreed. Mrs. Myers even fed the workers homemade soup as they prepared “her” tree to become the nation’s tree.
• The National Christmas Tree is located in the El-lipse, which is part of President’s Park near the White House. All of the area surrounding the White House, its grounds, including the Ellipse, Lafayette Park, Sherman Park and more have been part of the National Park System since 1933.
• The first National Christmas Tree was not a live tree but was also an evergreen. The President of Middlebury College in Vermont, President Calvin Coolidge’s home state, donated a 48-foot (14.6 m) balsam fir to be placed on the Ellipse in December 1923. This “first” tree was cut down and sent to Washington. President Coolidge flipped the switch to light the tree on Christmas Eve.
• Washington, D.C., is also home to another famous Christmas tree. The Capitol Christmas Tree, also known as the “People’s Tree,” has been harvested from one of the country’s national forests since 1969. Staff at the National Forest Service head-quarters work with national forests’ staffs across the country to select a well-shaped evergreen tree, with the final decision made by the Architect of the Capitol.
• It is a huge honor, and many celebrations take place in the state chosen to send the Capitol Christmas tree to the nation’s capitol. The 2011 tree was sent from the Stanislaus National Forest near Sonora, Califor-nia. The tree traveled about 4,500 miles (7242 km) on its journey to stand at a place of honor for many Americans and others to see.

¥ On Dec. 23, 1888, Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh, suffering from severe depression, cuts off the lower part of his left ear with a razor while staying in Arles, France. He later documented the event in a painting titled “Self-Portrait With Bandaged Ear.” During his lifetime, van Gogh sold only one painting.
¥ On Dec. 22, 1900, the first car to be produced under the “Mercedes” name is delivered to its buyer, Emil Jell-inek, an Austrian car racer and auto dealer to the rich and famous.

¥ On Dec. 25, 1962, “To Kill a Mockingbird,” a film based on the 1960 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name by Harper Lee, opens in theaters. The Great Depression-era story of racial injustice and the loss of childhood innocence is told from the perspective of a young Alabama girl named Scout Finch.
¥ On Dec. 21, 1975, in Vienna, Austria, Carlos the Jackal leads a raid on a meeting of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), killing three people and taking 63 hostage. Carlos managed to evade international authorities until 1994, when French agents captured him hiding in the Sudan.
¥ On Dec. 19, 1986, Michael Sergio, who parachuted into Game Six of the 1986 World Series at New YorkÕs Shea Stadium, is fined $500 and sentenced to 100 hours of community service. Sergio had landed on the infield with a “Let’s Go Mets” banner in the first inning of the sixth game between the Mets and the Boston Red Sox.

Outing a Sore Spot for Nosey Dog
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: This weekend I took my dog “Marty,” a dachshund-
beagle mix, out to some property, where she sniffed and sniffed and dug and sniffed and sniffed. I think she had her nose buried in the rocky soil for so long that she gave herself a rather large (maybe the size of a nickel) blister on her upper lip. It’s not puffy -- just a raw patch under her nose, and she licks at it. I saw something saying that canola oil or olive oil might help chapped lips, but this seems like a larger area. Any tips? -- Matt P., via email
DEAR MATT: First, I have to caution that it’s always wise to consult your dog’s vet. With that out of the way, I’d say the best thing to do would be to treat the raw patch like you would a blister or a raw patch on your own nose. Keep the area clean, rub a bit of Neosporin over it two or three times daily and watch it closely.Marty probably will lick off the antibiotic ointment within a minute or two of application, but in such small quantities it isn’t a problem to ingest. A Band-Aid probably will cause more discomfort and trouble than it prevents. You also can ask your vet for topical medicine to reduce any discomfort and thereby reduce her licking of the area so it can heal faster. If it is indeed just a raw patch caused by friction, the area should heal up within a few days. But do keep a close eye on it: If the patch looks like its getting infected or otherwise changes for the worse, take Marty to the vet right away.
Fine-Tune Finances Before Year’s End
The quiet week at the end of the year is a good time to review finances and make any needed
changes before the New Year.
Tax deductions: The trick is to balance payroll deductions with the taxes you’ll owe in April
so that you come out with nothing due and no refund. If too much money is taken out, you’re
essentially giving the government an interest-free loan. Instead make the changes to your W-9
form and put that extra money from each paycheck into a savings account.
The biggest event that should make you review your deductions is buying a house. You’ll get a mortgage interest statement (Form 1098)
for the interest you paid, which can become a deduction on the Schedule A of your tax forms if you itemize. (You’ll also be able to claim
the property taxes you’ve paid.)
If you can, make a 13th mortgage payment in December to add to the amount of the mortgage interest.
Better savings interest rate: If your emergency fund is safely in place, likely in a savings account, considering putting further savings into
a CD or money market account. You’ll get a bit more interest, and the money is still easily accessible in case of an emergency.
Health Savings Account: If have a high deductible on your medical insurance, investigate putting money into a Health Savings Account.
The money you put into an HSA is tax-preferred, which means that it’s not taxable when earned. Balances roll over from year to year,
and the only stipulation is that it be used to pay medical expenses. “High deductible” is defined as $1,200 for yourself or $2,400 for
family coverage for 2011. Go online to irs.gov and look for IRS Publication 969 for more details about how much you can contribute.
If you’re self-employed, stock up on the consumables you normally use. Those become a business expense that you can deduct. If you’ll
likely need a new computer soon, or telephones, consider buying those before the end of the year.
If you’ve planned to make charitable donations, do it now. It’s a deduction on the Schedule A if you itemize.
Invest in an early copy of the 2011 tax software and run the numbers. This will help you fine tune your year-end strategy.

SurvivorsDo you keep your service files or-ganized? Most of us don’t, unless
pushed. But here’s something to consider: Can your family easily find what it needs to handle your affairs if something happens to you?Here are a few documents your family will need to lay their hands on quickly:--Your DD214 or service equivalent. If you don’t have your dis-charge papers, send for them.--A list that includes Social security number, branch of service, dates of service, date and place of birth. Include all the places you were stationed, and dates.--Immunization record, birth certificate and will. (You do have one, right? And it’s updated, not one you wrote 20 years ago?) Add your government life-insurance policy, copy of all marriage certificates and divorce decrees and copy of children’s birth certificates.Download online (or send away for) the following blank forms, to be kept in the file: Application for United States Flag for Burial Purpos-es; Claim for One Sum Payment Government Life Insurance; Claim for Monthly Payments National Service Life Insurance; Application for Standard Government Headstone or Marker.If you have an ongoing claim with the Department of Veterans Af-fairs, put all related documents in a separate file, newest at the top. Keep several sheets of blank paper in the file so you can note the date, time and whom you spoke with whenever you call the VA so the information is always current.Go online to www.vba.va.gov, click Veteran Services, then Survi-vors. Scroll down and look for any additional information that might apply to you. Send for the appropriate forms. Print out the VA Ben-efits for Survivors pamphlet and put it in the file, or call the VA (1-800-827-1000) and have one sent to you.You only need to do this once. When you’ve assembled and orga-nized your information, you just need to keep it updated.

Truck Champ Dillon Going Nationwide
Another generation found
its wings and took flight.
Or, at least, hoisted a trophy in celebration.
Austin Dillon is the 21-year-old grandson of team
owner and former driver Richard Childress. Chil-
dress won six (now) Sprint Cup championships with
the great Dale Earnhardt.
Dillon drove a Chevy Silverado with No. 3 on its
sides to the championship of the Camping World
Truck Series. Three, of course, is the number indel-
ibly associated with Earnhardt, and Dillon will carry
it with him when he competes next year in the Na-
tionwide Series.
“Our whole family is involved, and I remember the
very first championship with Dale Earnhardt,” Chil-
dress reminisced. “I had the same feeling tonight
watching Austin, my grandson. It’s just so special
to have the family and know how hard all of them
worked.”
Dillon called it “the best feeling I’ve ever had in my
entire life.”
He said one key to the advancement of his career
was “watching these guys in the (Sprint) Cup Series
talk to each other.”
“I listen to Tony Stewart, and I listen to Carl Ed-
wards and the different approaches they take to it,”
Dillon said. “Offense is your best defense most of
the time in racing ...”
“Darrell Waltrip told me the best feeling in the world
is going home stinking and having a trophy in your
lap, and we were able to do that.”
Younger brother Ty will compete next year in the
ride being vacated by Austin.
Of Austin, Childress said, “He handles pressure bet-
ter than a lot of people his age, and his brother Ty
does, too.
“They must get it from their mom, because me and
their dad (Mike Dillon) get a little wound up some-
times.”
