Diane's Clearinghouse celebrates MILWAUKEE BEER today with these Milwaukee beer pinback buttons for sale in my eBay Store:
https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
Milwaukee’s identity is deeply tied to beer, earning nicknames like “Brew City” and “Beer Capital of the World”. The city’s brewing heritage dates back to the mid-1800s, when European immigrants—especially Welsh and German—brought their homebrewing traditions to the frontier settlement near the Great Lakes. The first commercial brewery opened in 1840 by Welsh settlers as the Milwaukee Brewery (later Lake Brewery). A German immigrant, Herman Reutelschöfer, opened Milwaukee’s first German brewery in 1841, producing lager that helped shape the city’s beer identity. Between 1840 and 1860, about 35 breweries sprang up, many along the Milwaukee River for fresh water and ice for lager conditioning. By the 1850s–60s, Milwaukee became a brewing powerhouse, producing more beer than Chicago before the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Key breweries included Pabst (originally Best & Company), Schlitz, Blatz, and Miller. Many brewers emigrated from Germany with industrial brewing expertise, and family dynasties—like the Pabsts—became national forces. By the late 20th century, MillerCoors became Milwaukee’s largest brewery, producing 10 million barrels annually. While the “Big 4” (Miller, Schlitz, Pabst, Blatz) dominate, Milwaukee also boasts a thriving craft beer scene, with dozens of independent breweries and brewpubs. Moderate beer consumption can offer several potential health advantages. Beer contains antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that help fight free radicals, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases and certain cancers. Studies suggest that drinking one to two beers per day may lower the risk of heart disease, improve blood sugar control, and even strengthen bones due to its silicon content. Dark beers, in particular, have higher antioxidant levels, while light beers are lower in calories but still provide some benefits. Beer may also reduce the risk of kidney stones and support brain health by protecting cells from oxidative stress. Beer is widely consumed for its social and psychological effects. Sharing a beer can enhance social connections, foster camaraderie, and create a sense of community at gatherings, parties, or celebrations. The taste and variety of beers can trigger dopamine release, giving a pleasurable and relaxing feeling, which helps reduce stress and improve mood. Beer’s relatively low alcohol content compared to spirits makes it a popular choice for casual social drinking.

Diane's Clearinghouse is delighted to offer you this FABULOUS FURRY FREAK BROTHERS comic book: Omnibus by Gilbert Shelton, plus much, much more, for sale in my eBay Store: https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers is an underground comic about a fictional trio of stoner characters, created by the American artist Gilbert Shelton. The Freak Brothers first appeared in The Rag, an underground newspaper published in Austin, Texas, beginning in May 1968, and were regularly reprinted in underground publications around the United States and in other parts of the world. Later their adventures were published in a series of comic books. The lives of the Freak Brothers revolve around the procurement and enjoyment of recreational drugs, particularly ma*****na, while avoiding run-ins with law enforcement. The comics present a critique of the establishment while satirizing the counterculture. Fat Freddy's Cat appears in many of the stories, spinning off his own cartoon strip (which appeared as part of the Freak Brothers comic page. Shelton continued to write and draw the series until 1992, in collaboration with Dave Sheridan (1974 – 1982) and Paul Mavrides (1978 – 1992). In 1971 the Register and Tribune Syndicate offered to distribute the comic strip nationally if Shelton were to make substantial changes to make it more marketable to general audiences. Shelton refused without inquiring into the changes, one of which was to "substantially revise" the references to drugs and drug culture. The Freak Brothers are not siblings. They are a th*****me of freaks (similar to, but distinct from, hippies) from San Francisco. Freewheelin' Franklin Freek, although laid-back, is the most street-smart of the trio. Apparently he has always been on the streets and it appears that he is several years older than the others. In one story he reveals that he grew up in an orphanage and never knew his parents. Tall and skinny, he has a big bulbous nose, a waterfall mustache and a ponytail. He wears cowboy boots and a cowboy hat. Depending on the level of colorization used in the strip in question, Franklin's hair is red, blonde, or light brown. Phineas T. Phreak is the intellectual and idealist of the group. He has enough mastery of chemistry to create new drugs and takes an avid interest in politics. Of the three, he is the most committed to social change and environmental issues. He is from Texas and while his mother is relaxed and open-minded, his father is a card-carrying member of the John Birch Society. He is the hairiest of the brothers—tall and skinny with a thick bush of black hair, a beard, a nose bearing more than a passing resemblance to a joint, and glasses. He is the stereotypical left-wing radical, bearing a superficial resemblance to Abbie Hoffman or Jerry Rubin. Fat Freddy Freekowtski is the least intelligent of the trio and is most likely to be preoccupied with food. He has curly yellow hair and a mustache. His compulsion to eat is the subject of several of the adventures of the group. Fat Freddy frequently gets "burned" during drug transactions; when he does "score" he typically manages to lose the drugs in various ways, such as by dumping them out of a shopping bag in front of a cooling fan, which then blows them out the window onto a police car.

On this day, June 3rd in 1844, GREAT AUKS became extinct as the last two known specimens were killed by fishermen on Eldey island, Iceland. Diane's Clearinghouse mourns the loss with these two penguins and other antique glass figural bottles for sale in my eBay Store: https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
Today, there are 18 different species of penguin. Their size varies as much as their habitats. There was once a penguin that stood above the rest. Its massive size allowed it to survive in harsh conditions, but it also ultimately led to its demise. This northern bird ceased to exist due to relentless hunting by humans, which drove it to extinction. Had conservation efforts been successful, the Great Auk might still be alive today. The Great Auk is often referred to as the original penguin because its black upper body and white underside resemble modern penguins. Great Auks were even larger than the biggest modern penguin species. These birds, with black hooked beaks, stood three feet tall and weighed 11 pounds. Great Auks had wings, but they were unable to fly. Instead, their wings functioned as flippers, allowing Great Auks to swim efficiently through the ocean. Walking on land was not easy for the Great Auk. They were not as agile on land as they were in the water. As a result, the birds chose isolated locations for breeding when they came ashore. This ensured the greatest chance of survival for both adult Great Auks and their chicks. The Great Auk was a seabird that only came ashore to breed. When they did come ashore, large colonies formed in areas known for both their isolation from predators and proximity to food. The Great Auk’s oceanic range was much larger than its breeding grounds. Spending the majority of their lives at sea, Great Auks foraged across the Atlantic. There is even fossil evidence that they spent time in the Mediterranean. Wherever there was food, the Great Auk followed. At their peak, Great Auks could be found in many regions bordering the Atlantic Ocean. The Great Auk first appeared 400,000 years ago. During this time, the penguins survived through four known Ice Ages. What the Great Auk could not survive was the arrival and exploitation by colonial European explorers and settlers. The Great Auk was killed for their feathers, blubber, meat and for museum collections. Of these reasons, collecting specimens for museums was the least harmful, as by the time this became common, the population had already collapsed. With no regulations limiting how many Great Auks could be killed, they were slaughtered in large numbers. In less than 300 years, the giant penguin population was reduced to a fraction of what it once was. It was clear that without intervention, the Great Auk would cease to exist. But even intervention failed to save the Great Auk. Realizing that the Great Auk was in trouble, early conservation efforts were made to save the species. Despite legal protections, government efforts did little to stop the killing of Great Auks. In 1775, the Parliament of Great Britain was approached by the Nova Scotian government to intervene on behalf of the Great Auk. The petition drafted by Nova Scotia was approved by Great Britain. It stated that those who took eggs or killed the Great Auk for its feathers were to be “beaten in public.” Unfortunately, there was a loophole. Fishermen were still allowed to kill Great Auks. This killing was permitted as long as the meat from the Great Auks was used as bait. Therefore, the Great Auks were never truly protected. Conservation efforts failed, and the Great Auk was bound for extinction. The European hunters were not the first to kill the Great Auk for its feathers and meat. Indigenous people from Newfoundland also hunted the Great Auk. However, there was one difference. The Beothuk hunted the Great Auk sustainably. As the Europeans continued to hunt the Great Auk for its oil, feathers, meat, and fat, they did so in numbers that the population could not sustain. Eggs were gathered en masse, and generations of these large birds were lost. Adults did not stand a chance against hunters, given how unsteady and slow they were on land. The Great Auk went extinct in 1844 due to overhunting. In total, between the 16th and 19th centuries, it is estimated that colonial hunters killed potentially millions of Great Auks. The last of these magnificent penguins was noted as being slaughtered on Eldey Island in 1844. While there were occasional sightings of the Great Auk over the next few years, by 1850 it was officially extinct. The tale of the Great Auk and other species targeted during European exploration and expansion should serve as a warning today. As animals continue to go extinct, the planet’s landscape is changing for the worse. With the sixth extinction potentially already underway, species on the brink need urgent protection. Without conservation, there will be a global collapse, and not only will wild animals suffer from this extinction, but humans will as well.

You'd better sit down ... Diane's Clearinghouse brings you the exciting history of LAXATIVES today with this vintage laxative medicine tin, along with so much more, for sale in my eBay Store:
https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
Laxatives have been part of human medicine for thousands of years, evolving from crude plant-based purgatives to modern, targeted treatments for digestive health. The earliest known use of laxatives dates back to ancient Egypt, where remedies like senna leaves, castor oil, aloe, and colocynth were used to relieve constipation. Greek and Roman physicians, including Hippocrates, also prescribed plant-based purgatives, believing that “purging” the body of perceived impurities was essential for health. In medieval Europe, apothecaries sold concoctions from rhubarb root, buckthorn, and even mercury-based compounds, which were often toxic. During the Middle Ages, laxatives were part of general medical practice, often mixed with other remedies. The Renaissance saw a shift toward more targeted use of purgatives and enemas as medical understanding of digestion improved. European and American physicians were convinced that constipation was becoming ever more common because of changes in diet, exercise levels, and pace of life associated with urbanisation. By the beginning of the 19th century, there was a medical consensus that constipation was the foremost disease of civilisation, a universal affliction in industrialised societies that engendered the full range of more serious human ailments. As a popular American health manual warned in the 1850s, “daily evacuation of the bowels is of the utmost importance to the maintenance of health”; without the daily movement, “the entire system will become deranged and corrupted.” By the 19th century, commercial laxatives appeared on pharmacy shelves, including Epsom salts, cascara sagrada, and mineral oil. In the early 20th century, constipation became a major public health concern in Britain, championed by surgeon William Arbuthnot Lane, who linked chronic constipation to widespread illness and even cancer, promoting aggressive purging. Today, laxatives are classified by mechanism:
* Bulk-forming (e.g., psyllium)
* Stimulant (e.g., senna)
* Osmotic (e.g., milk of magnesia)
* Stool softeners (e.g., docusate sodium)
* Lubricants (e.g., mineral oil)
They are used for short-term relief of constipation, preparation for medical procedures, and management of conditions like irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). However, long-term or excessive use—especially of stimulant laxatives—can lead to dependency, worsening constipation, and electrolyte imbalances. So, eat more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains; be more active physically; and always respond promptly to nature's morning call to evacuate.

Today Diane's Clearinghouse honors the mighty RHINOCEROS with these two rhinoceros figural bottles for sale in my eBay Store: https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
Rhinoceroses are some of the largest remaining megafauna: all weigh over half a tonne in adulthood. They have a herbivorous diet, small brains 400–600 g (14–21 oz) for mammals of their size, one or two horns, and a thick 1.5–5 cm (0.59–1.97 in), protective skin formed from layers of collagen positioned in a lattice structure. They generally eat leafy material, although their ability to ferment food in their hindgut allows them to subsist on more fibrous plant matter when necessary. Unlike other perissodactyls, the two African species of rhinoceros lack teeth at the front of their mouths; they rely instead on their lips to pluck food. Rhinoceroses are killed by poachers for their horns, which are bought and sold on the black market for high prices, leading to most living rhinoceros species being considered endangered. The contemporary market for rhino horn is overwhelmingly driven by China and Vietnam, where it is bought by wealthy consumers to use in traditional Chinese medicine, among other uses. Rhino horns are made of keratin, the same material as hair and fingernails, and there is no good evidence of any health benefits. A market also exists for rhino horn dagger handles in Yemen, which was the major source of demand for rhino horn in the 1970s and 1980s. Adult rhinoceroses have no real predators in the wild, other than humans. Young rhinos sometimes fall prey to big cats, crocodiles, African wild dogs, and hyenas. Although rhinos are large and aggressive and have a reputation for being resilient, they are very easily poached; they visit water holes daily and can be easily killed while they drink. In Europe, it was historically believed that rhino horns could purify water and could detect poisoned liquids, and likely believed to be an aphrodisiac and an antidote to poison. It is a common misconception that rhinoceros horn in powdered form is used as an aphrodisiac or a cure for cancer in traditional Chinese medicine. No text in history has ever mentioned such prescriptions. Rhino horn is sometimes prescribed for fevers and convulsions, a treatment not supported by evidence-based medicine: this treatment has been compared to consuming fingernail clippings in water. In a 2021 survey of Chinese users of rhinoceros horn products, the vast majority of respondents cited "dispelling heat" and "detoxification" as reasons for using rhino horn. An average sized horn can bring in as much as a quarter of a million dollars in Vietnam and many rhino range states have stockpiles of rhino horn. To prevent poaching, in certain areas, rhinos have been tranquillized and their horns removed. Armed park rangers, particularly in South Africa, are also working on the front lines to combat poaching, sometimes killing poachers who are caught in the act. In 2011, the Rhino Rescue Project began a horn-trade control method consisting of infusing the horns of living rhinos with a mixture of a pink dye and an acaricide (to kill ticks) which is safe for rhinos but toxic to humans. Depending on the quantity of horn a person consumes, experts believe the acaricide would cause nausea, stomach-ache, and diarrhea, and possibly convulsions. It would not be fatal.

Diane's Clearinghouse celebrates WALKING today with these fine German International Walking Day participation medals for sale in my eBay Store: https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
International Walking Day is a global initiative that encourages people to walk more, whether for commuting, leisure, or exercise, highlighting walking as one of the most underrated forms of transportation and physical activity. The official celebration takes place on April 27th, and it aims to inspire individuals and communities to adopt a more active lifestyle. The goal is to collectively reach 50,000,000 steps, motivating people to walk in their neighborhoods, explore new paths, or simply increase daily step counts. International Walking Day emphasizes the social, environmental, and health benefits of walking. It encourages collaboration with public transport, health organizations, and local communities to showcase walking as a sustainable and inclusive activity. Walking regularly improves heart health by increasing circulation, strengthening the heart muscle, and lowering blood pressure. Brisk walking can reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and high cholesterol while helping control blood sugar levels and metabolism, making it effective for weight management and preventing obesity. Even a 30-minute daily walk can burn 150–200 calories depending on pace and body weight. Walking strengthens muscles, improves joint flexibility, and protects against arthritis by lubricating joints and supporting the knees and hips. Regular walking can prevent joint pain and maintain mobility, and premenopausal women may improve bone density with consistent brisk walking. Walking has significant mental health benefits. It reduces stress, improves mood, and can act as a form of meditation, especially when done outdoors in nature. Even short walks of 10–15 minutes can curb cravings, improve focus, and enhance overall psychological well-being. Walking lowers the risk of chronic diseases. Women who walk seven or more hours per week have a reduced risk of breast cancer, and regular walking strengthens the immune system, reducing the frequency and severity of colds and flu. It also decreases the risk of dementia and certain cancers. Walking supports long-term health by improving aerobic capacity, circulation, and lung function. It is gentle on the joints, sustainable for all ages, and can be adapted to different fitness levels, making it a lifelong exercise that contributes to increased lifespan and quality of life. To maximize benefits, maintain good posture, swing your arms, and walk at a brisk pace when possible. Wearing supportive shoes, dressing appropriately for weather, and incorporating interval walking can further enhance cardiovascular fitness and calorie burn. Walking outdoors also provides sunlight exposure, which supports vitamin D production and overall well-being.

Diane's Clearinghouse honors HOPALONG CASSIDY, Roy Rogers, The Lone Ranger, Dale Evans and a couple Indians with these western cowboy related items for sale in my eBay Store:
https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
Hopalong Cassidy is a fictional cowboy hero created in 1904 by the author Clarence E. Mulford, who wrote a series of short stories and novels based on the character. Mulford portrayed the character as rude, dangerous, and rough-talking. Shot in the leg during a gun fight, he walked with a limp that gave him his nickname. Mulford wrote 28 Hopalong Cassidy novels in all. From the 1930s to the 1950s, the character became indelibly associated with actor William Boyd, who portrayed Cassidy first in a series of sixty-six films from 1935 to 1948, then in children-oriented radio and TV series, both of which lasted until 1952. Boyd's portrayal of Cassidy had little in common with the literary character, being instead a clean-cut, sarsaparilla-drinking hero who never shot first. The plots of the film, radio and TV series were generally not taken from Mulford's writings. In 1950, while the character was undergoing a surge in popularity, then-aspiring author Louis L'Amour was commissioned to write four additional Hopalong Cassidy novels, this time with a characterization matching William Boyd's portrayal, rather than Mulford's writings. L'Amour wrote the novels under the pseudonym Tex Burns. Although they were his first published novels, he was unhappy with the assignment, since he preferred the original character, and publicly denied authorship of the novels for the rest of his life. In the first film, Hopalong Cassidy (then spelled "Hop-along") got his name after being shot in the leg. Hopalong's "drink of choice" was the nonalcoholic sarsaparilla. As portrayed on the screen, white-haired Bill "Hopalong" Cassidy was usually clad strikingly in black (including his hat, an exception to the Western film stereotype that only villains wore black hats). He was reserved and well spoken, with a sense of fair play. He was often called upon to intercede when dishonest characters took advantage of honest citizens. "Hoppy" and his white horse, Topper, usually traveled through the West with two companions: one young and trouble-prone with a weakness for damsels in distress, the other older, comically awkward and outspoken.
Hopalong Cassidy hit like a bombshell on the American scene. William Boyd as Cassidy was featured on the cover of national magazines such as Look, Life, and Time. Boyd earned millions as Hopalong ($800,000 in 1950 alone), mostly from merchandise licensing and endorsement deals. In 1950, Hopalong Cassidy was featured on the first lunchbox to bear an image, causing sales of Aladdin lunch boxes to jump from 50,000 units to 600,000 units per year. In 1950, more than 100 companies manufactured $70 million of Hopalong Cassidy products, including children's dinnerware, pillows, roller skates, soap, wristwatches (made by Timex), and jackknives. The major museum display of Hopalong Cassidy is at the Autry National Center at Griffith Park in Los Angeles, California. A "Hoppy Museum" consisting of a collection of products endorsed by William Boyd is located at Scott's 10th Street Antique Mall in Cambridge, Ohio. Topper's saddle is on display at Twin Cities South Trailers, a horse trailer dealership in Pilot Point Texas. William Boyd's collection, including Hopalong's TV production materials, is archived at the American Heritage Center at the University of Wyoming. Hopalong Cassidy appeared in 66 films (1935–1948), 52 TV episodes, and over 100 radio shows.

Today, Diane's Clearinghouse brings you the history of U.S. WORLD WAR II SAVINGS BONDS (Series E War Bonds) with these vintage matchbook covers for sale in my eBay Store:
https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
Series E U.S. Savings Bonds were government-issued war bonds sold from 1941 to 1945 to finance World War II, later continuing as retail savings bonds until 1980. The first U.S. Savings Bonds (Series A–D) were issued in the 1930s to encourage saving. In 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt launched the Series E Defense Savings Bond to help fund the war effort. After the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, they were renamed War Savings Bonds or War Bonds. These bonds were zero-coupon debt securities — you paid less than face value upfront and received the full face value at maturity, with no periodic interest payments. They were marketed as a patriotic investment, not just for profit, but to support the war. They were sold in denominations of: $25, $50, $100, and up to $10,000. The purchase price was typically 50–75% of face value. War Savings Stamps: For those who couldn’t afford large bonds, the U.S. Post Office issued small-denomination stamps (10¢, 25¢, 50¢, $1, $5) that could be collected in “war bond stamp books” to reach a larger bond amount. The Treasury ran massive “War Loan Drives” with posters, parades, concerts, and even school programs. Norman Rockwell’s Four Freedoms paintings toured stores, raising $130 million. The bond campaign was unprecedented in scale and reach. over 85 million Americans purchased war bonds. $185.7 billion was raised in 8 major drives, more than any other country during the war. The “Schools at War” program alone bought 90,000 Jeeps. Old war bonds can still be redeemed for their face value, but their market value depends on series type, denomination, and issue date. The U.S. Treasury’s bond calculator can estimate current worth. Because they were sold at deep discounts, they may be worth more than their original purchase price. WWII savings bonds were a unique blend of patriotic duty and financial investment, helping fund the war while becoming a cultural symbol of American sacrifice.

Diane's Clearinghouse is excited to welcome SLUGS RETURN FROM CAPISTRANO DAY!!! Buy this charming glass slug below to celebrate, for sale in my eBay Store:
https://www.ebay.com/str/dianesclearinghouse
Slugs Return From Capistrano Day is a holiday that is celebrated on May 28 every year in the United States. It brings awareness about slugs and the roles they play in our ecosystem. It is believed that slugs spend the winter in Capistrano. They are said to return to our patios and gardens during this holiday period. Most slug species are harmless to human beings. They can be pests in agriculture and horticulture, as they tend to destroy the foliage of growing plants. They also feed on fruits and vegetables before they can be harvested, thereby destroying the crops. Slugs can be described as shell-less snails. There are different types of slugs. Some slugs live on land and slugs live at sea. Their diet consists of different creatures and other matter. Slugs have been known to eat algae, worms, centipedes, insects, and fungi. They usually eat a few times their weight every day. Some slugs can be quite big. A type of slug known as the ‘black sea hare’ can reach up to 40 inches and weigh up to 30 pounds. Another type of slug called the ‘ashy-grey’ slug of Europe can get up to 10 inches. Slugs have tentacles that they can retract. They use two to see and smell. They use the others to touch and taste. They breathe through a pore called the ‘pneumostome.’ Slugs secrete mucus that protects them from bacteria and fungi. The mucus helps them to control their moisture levels. The mucus also helps make it easier for them to move around. Slugs examine the mucus trails of other slugs when they are looking for a mate. They use their pedal gland to produce their slime. Slugs are notorious for being slow. ‘Banana’ slugs can move about 6.5 inches in a minute. The ‘milky’ slug can travel up to 40 feet in a night.
* 585 — 541 Million Years Ago Fossil records show that the most primitive slugs lived in the ocean.
* 252—66 Million Years Ago During the Mesozoic era, marine slugs evolve and develop the features currently noticed in modern slugs.
* 150 Million Years Ago The clade Stylommatophora appears and gives origin to numerous families of snails and slugs.
* Slugs like to live in dark, damp habitats. They like to have wet surroundings because of their damp bodies.
* It is estimated that about 200 slugs are living in one cubic meter of soil.
* Slugs can be considered to belong to the class of animals called Gastropoda. They are very similar to snails and are considered to be a type of mollusk.
* Slugs do not have a backbone so they are considered to be invertebrates.
* Slugs do not have teeth or tongues but use a radula to grind their food.
* Slugs have been known to lay their eggs under leaves or on the soil.
* Slug eggs can survive for years until the conditions are favorable for hatching.
* The largest part of the slug is the muscle that is the foot.
* Slugs have both male and female organs. This means that they can fertilize their eggs.
* Slugs are more active in the spring and fall. This is because they don’t like hot weather.
* Slugs can live from one to six years. The lifespan of slugs usually depends on the species.
Talk to people about slugs and enjoy being a slug for the day!
