SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH: Brought to you by JaseCaseMedical.com
This year, Americans will spend, on average, $181 per person on candy, cards, flowers and other gifts for friends, loved ones, classmates and even coworkers for Valentine’s Day, according to a WalletHub report. That’s down slightly from last year’s $185 average. The top Valentine’s Day gifts people plan to give were, in order, candy, flowers, greeting cards, an evening out, and jewelry. The survey found that men will spend about twice as much money on their significant other as women will. If you’re a guy, though, you might be wise to count your blessings. Thanks to financial pressures, 34% said they don’t expect their sweetheart to spend ANY money on gifts this year.

Quentin Tarantino is writing a play. His last film, 2019’s “Once Upon A Time in Hollywood” inspired headlines claiming it would be his final film. In a new interview, he said: “If you’re wondering what I’m doing right now, I’m writing a play. It’s probably going to be the next thing I end up doing.” He didn’t, however, rule out the possibility that his play could be mined as a big-screen adaptation. Quote: “If it’s a fiasco I probably won’t turn it into a movie. But if it’s a smash hit? It might be my last movie.”
Netflix previewed its 2025 film slate at the “Next on Netflix” event in LA, and revealed release dates for some of its biggest titles of the year.

Among the streamer’s scheduled documentary subjects are Osama Bin Laden, the Manson murders and the Titan submarine.
Harvey Weinstein begged a New York judge to move up his retrial date, claiming he’s in poor health and doesn’t know “how much longer I can hold on.” A frail Weinstein was rolled into court in a wheelchair, where he told the Manhattan Supreme Court judge that he was requesting a speedy retrial of his 2020 conviction on rape and sexual assault charges, which was overturned last year after it was ruled he didn’t receive a fair trial. Weinstein also claimed he “won’t be there” for the scheduled start on April 15 if he is consigned to remain on Rikers Island.

Subway is now
selling a foot-long Oreo cookie. Last year, the sub sandwich shop
launched its Sidekicks menu, featuring “footlong snacks”. The
first 3 were a Footlong Cookie, a Footlong Churro (developed with
Cinnabon), and a Footlong Pretzel. And now, the Footlong Oreo.
According to Subway, the 12-inch dessert features chocolate cookie

A team of researchers at Penn State University says it has developed an “electronic tongue” that can detect spoiled food long before humans can. The invention combines atom-thin sensors with AI to detect food fraud, spoilage and contamination “within minutes”. The scientists say the system mimics how humans taste and process flavors, using the sensors, modeled after a person’s taste receptors, to send electrical signals to an “artificial neural network” to analyze the data. In testing, the device was able to detect dangerous compounds at levels equivalent to a single drop in an Olympic-sized swimming pool. The team hopes that the system could also be used in the future to also help with medical diagnostics.

OLD-TIME VALENTINES:
Here are some quaint Valentine’s traditions from the past…
☞ Using Birds to Predict a Spouse: The superstition said that the first bird an unmarried woman saw on Valentine’s Day indicated the kind of man she would marry. A swan meant a loyal partner for life; a dove meant she’d marry a kind-hearted person; and a blackbird signified she’d marry a member of the clergy or one who did charitable work.
☞ A ’Vinegar Valentine’: Victorians would write these to rid themselves of unwanted romantic attention. The nasty notes didn’t smell of vinegar in the way a love letter may have a perfume-smell, but they certainly were sour: The writer would list the things they loathed about the recipient, alongside a caricature illustration.
☞ Sending Violets: Until the 1930s, New Englanders sent violets, rather than our traditional Valentine’s Day roses. Why? According mythology, Saint Valentine was persecuted by Emperor Claudius of Rome for his Christian beliefs. After being imprisoned, Valentine crushed violet flowers that grew outside his prison cell window to make ink, which he used to write his letters.
☞ Wearing Your Lover’s Name on Your Sleeve: During the Roman festival Lupercalia, women would pin the name of their love interest on their sleeve. The phrase was first written by Shakespeare a few centuries later in his play “Othello”, giving us the popular idiom used today.
☞ Gifting Your Date a Love Spoon: People Wales commemorate Saint Dwynwen, the Welsh patron saint of lovers, on Jan. Beginning in the 17th century, men would whittle an intricately crafted wooden spoon for the woman they loved. You can still buy these gorgeous spoons in Wales.
☞ Sending a Single Glove of Love: In Victorian times, some chaps would send a single glove to his chosen Valentine, in hopes that she’d wear it on Easter Sunday as sign that she returned his love. (Or that she’d at least return his glove?)
☞ Looking for Love Omens in a…Cemetery: As part of this superstitious tradition, young people would head to the graveyard on Valentine’s Day, where the lovestruck kids would look for signs and omens at midnight to guess at who their beloved would be.
