JANUARY CHAMBER MIXER IS TONIGHT

The January Chamber Mixer will be held at the Rim Country Regional Chamber of Commerce and Visitor Center, 100 W. Main St., Payson at 5:30 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 18. Mixer guests will be treated to western-style snacks, beginning with Ruth Klaver’s pulled pork. This will be followed up by her delicious side dishes. The chamber offices will be open, so members can see the newly renovated Visitor Center lobby, displaying the brochures and cards of members as well as the visitor information from throughout Arizona. Members are encouraged to bring business cards to share and leave at the chamber, and to pick up information about chamber advertising opportunities. As always, there will be door prizes, and more are needed. Donors can give a two-minute commercial for their business. The new CD by Junction 87, John & Lu Carpino and Anne James, dedicated to the Tonto Natural Bridge, will provide music, and will be available for purchase. The final event will be the beginning of a raffle for a 23-inch copy of the Russell bronze “The Bronco Buster” — tickets will sell for $10 and only 200 will be sold. Proceeds will be used to continue to update the facilities at the chamber. The winning ticket will be drawn at the Business Showcase on March 24. Admission is $3 for members and $5 for non-members Please call (928) 474-4515 for reservations, as space is limited.

turies of history and 14 countries — without a single flight. The 890-passenger Prinsendam departs March 12 from Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. for the 62-day voyage. The itinerary will allow plenty of time to become acquainted with fellow passengers and to take in many shows at night. There will be lectures about various subjects as well as time to take in movies aboard ship and read a few books. The only thing you will have to watch is diet. It’s so easy to gain weight on a long cruise. I took a 64-day cruise a few years ago and only allowed desserts one day per week. It worked. The Prinsendam will stop at Funchal, Madeira, Portugal, Seville, Cartagena, Spain, Melilla, Morocco, Tunis, Tunisia, Valletta, Malta, Gozo, Malta, Kusadasi for Ephesus, Turkey, Istanbul, Turkey, Constanta, Romania, Odesa, Ukraine, Piraeus (Athens), Greece, Argostli, Greece, Durres, Albania, Korcula, Croatia, Venice, Taromina, Sorrento, Civitavecchia (Rome), Italy, Saint-Raphael, Sete, France, Barcelona, Spain, Castellon de las Plana, Malaga, (Granada) Spain, Tangier, Morocco, Lisbon, Portugal then Ponta Delgado and Horta, Azores and return to Ft.

eral stops and on to Fiji, Samoa, three islands in Hawaii and home, docking at San Diego Dec. 5, just in time for the holidays. Fares begin at $13,699 for the full 75-day voyage. I have noticed in the past couple of years that a few cruise lines are adding more long cruises to their yearly offerings. They are marketed for guests to take the entire length or to book twoto four-week sections. If you are thinking of taking a long, expensive trip, I strongly suggest using a travel agent. It will cost you probably nothing and they know the latest travel deals and will have a supply of brochures to give you. A simpler, less time-intensive vacation might be a grand tour of France. Many Americans today choose only one country to visit overseas at a time. With airfares increasing, it becomes more expensive to do only one country, but you may only have two or three weeks to travel this year. Grand European Tours are offering a very fine France itinerary for 16 days and priced at $4,019 per person for land only. Air fare and insurance will be extra, plus meals that are not included, etc. The tour begins in Paris after an overnight flight. You will be met on arrival at the airport and transferred to your hotel. After checking in, you will have the balance of the day at leisure. After an overnight flight, I try not to sleep until the next evening. It helps me get adjusted to the new time. Have lunch, take a walk and do some snooping before having dinner. This is where you will meet other tour members along with your tour conductor. Paris is one of the best walking cities in the world and as you turn the corner there is usually something interesting to view. Each neighborhood has its own charm and you will enjoy free time on your own here.

The next day you will be taken down the Champs-Elysees to view the Arc de Triomphe, Place de la Concorde and the magnificent Gothic Cathedral of Notre Dame. Then enter the famed Louvre Museum to see its masterpieces including the Mona Lisa and Venus de Milo. This night you will be taken to an exciting Parisian Cabaret with French CanCan dancing. This is followed by a free day in Paris. I suggest you walk down the Champs-Eleysees to visit one of some 90 museums. You can shop for paintings at the Montmartre, enjoy a coffee in a sidewalk café (there are many) and perhaps book a tour to nearby Palace of Versailles in the afternoon. Next, the tour heads to Giverny to visit Claude Monet’s house and beautiful gardens, and stop for a view of Joan of Arc’s Rouen, then continues to the hotel in Normandy for a relaxing two-night stay. Here, you can rediscover the history of the DDay Landings as you hear a special lecture from a local resident. Next day, visit the Benedictine monastery from the 13th Century, Mont St. Michel. During high tide it appears to be an island. It was started in the 7th Century. The tour will stop in the heart of the Loire Valley for a night’s rest. A tour of the gardens in the area follows, as well as Villandry and impressive Chateau d’Amboise where Leonardo da Vinci spent his last years and was buried. Next morning there is a little time to explore the area, then to Avignon plus Nice and return to Paris by TGV train. You will have another day in Paris before your flight home. France is one of the most interesting countries you can visit. Try it, you’ll see. Grand European Tours may be reached by calling (503) 718-2262.

IN THE KITCHEN | FAMILY FEATURES

Dynamic dinner duo: smart and simple After a long day, preparing a healthy and delicious meal doesn’t always come naturally. Busy schedules and unlimited recipe options can make cooking nutritious “from scratch” meals seem like a daunting task. Bonnie Taub-Dix, MA, RD, CDN, author of “Read It Before You Eat It,” director and owner of BTD Nutrition Consultants and former spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association, believes that cooking with simple and quality ingredients is critical to keeping your health in check. “Learning to prepare a few quick and healthy meals will help you eat better and motivate you to continue to stay on track,” says Taub-Dix. To help you prepare smart, quick and simple meals your family will enjoy, TaubDix offers these tips: • Use what you like — pick a few meals that you enjoy eating out and learn to make them at home using fresh vegetables, lean meats and reasonable portions. • Frozen zone — stock your freezer with healthy, frozen vegetables and all-natural, lean meats without preservatives so you can always have healthy options on hand. Perdue’s new breaded line of chicken, including Simply Smart® Lightly Breaded Chicken Filets, have up to 40 percent fewer calories, 50 percent less fat and 25 percent more protein than the USDA standard for breaded chicken. • Keep an eye on the details — make sure to shop at well-maintained stores with quality produce. Ask your local grocer about the temperature settings they use to store refrigerated and frozen items. • Know your food — ingredient lists can be hard to pronounce, let alone understand. Try to choose foods that have ingredients that are simple, recognizable and real. If you don’t know an ingredient, do some research before purchasing the product. • Go for lean — one, 3-ounce portion of chicken provides a powerhouse of lean protein, with the breast meat being the leanest part of a chicken. • Refrigerate and freeze ASAP — Select your frozen and refrigerated items at the end of your trip and freeze or refrigerate within 30 minutes of purchasing. To learn more about the new line of Perdue Simply Smart chicken, visit www.perdue.com/simplysmart.

Seafood twice a week will keep heart and health at their peak. Tired of your doctor giving you that same old “be healthy, eat healthy” speech? Well, meeting that challenge is as simple as

adding seafood to your diet twice a week. The new and improved Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends that all Americans, including pregnant women, eat at least two servings (eight ounces) of seafood every week. The guidelines are updated every four years by the United States Department of Agriculture and the United States Department for Health and Human Services. Wondering how you’ll manage fitting seafood into your diet twice a week? Look no further than the nutrient filled, protein packed, super shellfish — shrimp. “To incorporate more seafood into your diet, use familiar recipes and swap out the same old protein for seafood like shrimp,” said Jennifer McGuire, MS, RD, National Fisheries Institute. “For example, shrimp is the perfect addition in pasta dishes, salads and sandwiches. And, to make your family’s diet seafood-rich, think beyond lunch and dinner. Add shrimp to an omelet for breakfast or to a panini for an afternoon snack for the kids.” Sure to benefit your heart and health, one three-ounce serving of shrimp contains just 100 calories and less than two grams of fat, while also delivering healthy omega-3s and a whopping 20 grams of protein.

This recipe for Shrimp Fra Diavolo is a simple way to spice up a healthy diet with great flavor that will hit the spot and do wonders for your heart.

RIM HISTORY RIM HISTORY BACK WHEN | STAN BROWN

The Wild West in the Rim Country CHAPTER 11: THE MURDER OF GILA COUNTY’S FIRST SHERIFF In 1885, ranchers in Texas were going broke because the bottom dropped out of the market for sheep, wool and cattle. Among those selling out was cattleman Jesse Ellison. He brought his remaining herd to Arizona in hopes of starting over, and with him was fellow rancher Glenn Reynolds, who had thrown his small herd of cattle in with the Ellisons’. Reynolds returned to Texas the next year for a second herd on behalf of his brothers. Upon reaching Holbrook, he was joined by his wife of 10 years, “Gustie,” and their four children, two sons and two daughters. The Ellison and Reynolds families established their ranching claims in STAN BROWN the Rim Country. Just as the Reynolds family was settling down, the Pleasant Valley War broke out, and no one felt safe as sheep and cattle ranchers ambushed one another. Glenn Reynolds determined to take his family to a more secure location, and moved to Globe.[1] In 1889, Gila County was expanded by the 15th Territorial Legislature to include the northern areas that had been Yavapai County. At this reorganization of the county, Glenn Reynolds ran for sheriff, and with the help of Rim Country ranchers like Jesse Ellison, he won. In his favor was the fact that he had held the office of sheriff for one year in Throckmorton County, Texas. He had been in office only a few months when the 35-year-old family man was murdered while transporting a group of Apaches by stagecoach to the territorial prison in Yuma. He had requested two guards to go with him on this mission, in addition to the stage driver, but was given only one guard, William A. “Hunkydory” Holmes.[2] The first leg of the trip was to be two days from Globe, over the Pinal Mountains to Casa Grande, with an overnight stop at the Riverside Station on the Gila River, near the town of Kelvin. The convicts were in leg irons and handcuffs, but on the second day, approaching a steep grade, seven of them had to be unloaded to walk so the stage could make it up the hill. Inside

was the Apache Kid, one of the prisoners, shackled to a another. Sheriff Reynolds was walking and had buttoned his long coat so that it covered access to his pistol. He carried his shotgun over his arm as he and the prisoners followed the stage up the steep grade. As the stagecoach pulled out of sight, two the Apaches edged close enough to Reynolds that they were able hold him between them while they grabbed for his shotgun. In the same instant, two others turned on Holmes, knocking him to the ground, seizing his rifle and shooting him dead. Turning on Sheriff Reynolds, they shot and killed him also. They then stripped both men of their guns, money, watches and keys to the manacles. Catching up with the stagecoach, they shot stage driver Eugene Middleton. The bullet went through his mouth and neck and barely missed his spinal cord. Temporarily paralyzed he fell to the ground. The Apaches thought him dead and left the scene. Middleton later recovered consciousness, was able to drag himself back to Riverside, and eventually healed, able to tell the story of the murders. The bodies of Reynolds and Holmes were brought to Globe on Nov. 3, 1889, and were buried in Globe’s Masonic cemetery. Reynolds was laid to rest beside the grave of his infant son, George. This saga had actually begun on June 1, 1887 at the San Carlos Reservation, where the Apache Kid was a trusted scout in the employ of Chief of Scouts Al Sieber. A group of drunken and rowdy Apaches had come into the agency and Sieber had ordered the Kid to take their guns from them. As the young scout was turning the weapons over to Sieber, a rifle shot blasted from the surrounding crowd of onlookers. The bullet struck Sieber in the ankle, a wound that would somewhat cripple him the rest of his life. The Kid was falsely blamed for the deed, though he insisted an Apache named Curley had fired the shot. Immediately following the shot, Sieber took his own rifle and killed one of the Indians. This precipitated a stampede as the Apaches fled, accompanied by many of Sieber’s scouts including The Kid. The renegades bolted the reservation and left a trail of dead ranchers and stolen horses in their wake, as they headed for Mexico. After months of running, the Apache Kid, believing himself inno-

cent, surrendered, but was court marshaled by the Army, convicted of desertion, and sentenced to prison at Alcatraz. He became bitter, not understanding why his friend Sieber had turned on him, and why an unfair trial had convicted him of charges he did not comprehend. After 16 months, President Cleveland pardoned him, but civilians fearful of Apaches intervened to press the case in civil courts. There, the Apache Kid, along with eight others, was convicted and sentenced to seven years in the Yuma prison. It was on the way to Yuma under this sentence that the prisoners escaped, Reynolds and Holmes were killed, and the Apache Kid began a reign of terror. Like a ghost, he would appear here or there to murder or to steal an Apache woman for himself. Military and civilian authorities launched a colossal manhunt for the escapees and by the summer of 1890 all the fugitives had been killed or captured — all except the Apache Kid. By 1892, the State of Arizona offered a $6,000 reward for The Kid, but no one ever claimed the reward. With such a mystery man as the Apache Kid, it is inevitable that many legends would surround his memory. Apparently, he ranged from the Tonto Basin to deep in the Sierra Madre of Mexico. Tonto Apache matriarch Ola Smith related one of these stories in a 1970 interview at Payson. It seems Ola’s mother and some of her sisters were down along Rye Creek when a young Apache came riding up. They

believed him to be the Apache Kid, and Ola’s mother ran and hid until she was sure he had gone. The Kid captured one of the sisters, tied her, and then stayed to help the other sister finish gathering the sticks for their wickiup. In a gentlemanly manner, he helped her pack the bundle and sent her on her way with the warning never to tell who he was or what he had done. If she did, he would kill her. He then took Ola’s other sister and rode off. The sister who went home did not speak of it for several weeks, out of fear, though the men of the tribe were out looking for the missing girl. The abducted girl was never found nor heard from again.

[1] At this time Payson, Tonto Basin and Pleasant Valley were all in Yavapai County. Globe was the seat of Gila County, which had been formed in 1881 from parts of Maricopa and Pinal Counties. [2] The nickname “Hunkydory” came from the character in a folk song Bill Holmes used to sing in the local saloons.

The Sonoran Swing Band will provide the dance music at the Black & White Ball, Saturday, Jan. 21 at the Mazatzal Hotel & Casino. Gary Cordell and Mary Gilbert (photo at left) are the vocalists for the 21-piece band that has been together for almost 19 years.

Gala for a good cause It’s all black and white, fabulous and fun Love the costumes on Masterpiece’s “Downton Abbey?” Have a zoot suit or flapper dress in your dream wardrobe that you are just dying to wear? Need to pull out that fabulous formal wear for some air? Or do you still have some styling garb from the height of the counter culture era of Haight-Ashbury. If it’s black and white, then you have the perfect place to wear it for a night on the town — the Annual Black & White Ball sponsored by the Mogollon Health Alliance (MHA). The theme this year is San Francisco 1906 to 2012. Get ready to step out and step lively Saturday, Jan. 21 at the event center of the Mazatzal Hotel & Casino. The MHA Black & White Ball gets under way at 5 p.m. when the doors open. Dinner will be served at 5:30 p.m. and features a choice of prime rib and Princess chicken (made with a mushroom and wine sauce) or upon request, a vegetarian entree. There will be delicious side dishes and a scrumptious dessert — a tuxedo cake, one of the specialties of the casino’s restaurant staff, plus a nohost bar and dinner music as well.

Black & White Ball FROM PAGE 8

Dance music by the Sonoran Swing Band will be offered from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Expect to hear the big band sound of such popular tunes as “In the Mood,” “How High the Moon,” “String of Pearls,” “Star Dust,” “Moonlight Serenade,” “Satin Doll,” “Stompin’ at the Savoy,” “Fever,” and of course, “I Left My Heart in San Francisco.” Sonoran Swing is a 21-piece band with two vocalists — Gary Cordell and Mary Gilbert — who bring back the sounds of the big band era. The group has been together for almost 19 years, starting as the Motorola Dance Band and performing at numerous benefits as part of the company’s community service activities. When Motorola sold to General Dynamics, the service policy was discontinued and the band members struck out on their own, according to Cordell, who makes his home in Payson. The group plays more dances than concerts because people like to dance to the big band music, as past participants in the community’s annual Black & White Ball can attest — Sonoran Swing has provided the music for the event for about seven years. Awards at the 2012 Black & White Ball will be given for Best Dancers and Best Dressed Couple. There will also be drawing for elegant prizes — which are being kept a secret, except for one: an especially sparkling piece donated by Overman Designs, Cordell said. There will also be a silent auction, for which donations are still being accepted. Bids on silent auction items close at 8:30, with winners of the items announced at that time. Tickets are $200 per person or $1,500 for a table of eight. Purchase tickets by Wednesday, Jan. 18 at the MHA office, (928) 472-2588. Proceeds from the ball benefit the community programs of MHA, including the Health and Care Fair, Women’s Wellness Forum, MHAX III Cardiac Rehabilitation, scholarships, non-medical assistance to dialysis patients and more. Proceeds from the silent auction will benefit the programs of the Gracie Lee Haught Children’s Memorial Fund. “It is going to be a fabulous and fun event,” promises Sanja Long, MHA administrative assistant.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH | PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D.

CHOICES FOR BLOCKED LEG ARTERY DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I am a 74-year-old male and have been diagnosed with peripheral artery disease, PAD. I have a complete occlusion of the main artery just above the knee. What, in your opinion, are the chances of getting through the blockage with angioplasty? There is constant soreness in my calf, even at rest. Is that caused by the blockage? Will cilostazol (Pletal) and Crestor possibly dissolve some of the blockage? — J.C. ANSWER: Peripheral artery disease, PAD, is also called peripheral vascular disease. It’s an obstruction to the flow of blood through a leg artery. The obstruction is a buildup of cholesterol, fats and various other blood elements. Between the ages of 60 and 65, 4 percent of adults have it, and by the time people reach 80, 20 percent or more are victims of it. Its chief sign is intermittent claudication, which is pain in leg muscles, quite often the calf muscles, when a person is active. Many can predict almost to a specified number of steps when the pain will arise. Once the person rests, pain usually lasts minutes, but it can take 20 or more minutes to leave. It returns when the person begins to walk again. I can’t say definitely if your constant calf pain is due to PAD; it might be.

Ankle blood pressure is a valuable test for detecting PAD. Normally, the ankle pressure should be close to the arm blood pressure. A lower ankle pressure indicates an obstruction in a leg artery. Your medicines cilostazol and Crestor won’t completely dissolve the buildup in your leg artery, but they’ll keep it from growing larger. Crestor might reduce the size somewhat. You can help matters by watching your cholesterol; eating a diet that emphasizes grains, fruits and vegetables; controlling your blood pressure; and controlling your blood sugar if you have diabetes. Walking is an exercise that is most helpful. Angioplasty is one option for you. It will get through the buildup. It’s the same procedure used to open heart arteries with a balloon-equipped catheter that is threaded to the blockage through a surface artery. The balloon is opened at the obstruction, and often a stent is left in the artery. A stent is a wire device that keeps the artery opened. Surgical replacement of the clogged segment of artery with a graft is another option. The location and extent of disease determine which is the better choice. The booklet on PAD explains this common condition in detail. To obtain a copy, write: Dr. Donohue — No.

I have told him to wear cotton socks, and he made the change. I don’t see any improvement. Would a different kind of sock be better? — H.M. ANSWER: Acrylic is a better material. It wicks moisture away from the feet. Dusting powders and a change of socks will improve the situation. Have him carry an extra pair with him when he runs. Damp feet invite fungal infections. *** Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.

DOLLARS AND SENSE | DAVID UFFINGTON

Make 2012 the Year You Do It Yourself When it comes to home repairs and maintenance, you don’t always need to hire others. Make this the year you do it yourself — and save money. Here are some projects you can do yourself if you take it one step at a time: — Install laminate and tile flooring: The key is making sure the base flooring preparation is appropriate for the laminate. Ask questions before you buy and read the instructions. Putting laminate flooring on a plywood subfloor upstairs is different than putting down flooring on concrete in a basement. — Plumbing: You can repair a leaky faucet or toilet that keeps running, install washers, toilets and sinks, and more, but know when the project is too big. If the project involves pipes that bring water into your home or if it involves digging up the yard, it’s too big. — Simple electrical repairs: You can install a new outlet, dimmer switch or thermostat. You can rewire a

lamp. Buy a voltage detector and be sure to cut off the power at the circuit panel. The key is to know when a project is out of the range of your abilities — and safety. For many electrical projects, your local code likely will require a licensed electrician. — Decorating: Look through magazines at the library for ideas that appeal to you. Paint, wallpaper and new slipcovers or throw pillows can change the look of any room. Here are some more tips: Some of the big-box hardware stores have videos on project how-to, but the best ones are on YouTube.com where others have posted videos of their own. You’re also likely to learn more about what NOT to do by watching these. Expand your tool box if you need basics such as a hammer, two types of screwdrivers, and so on, but borrow any expensive tools you’ll only need once.

If you haven’t done a project before, read the instructions twice. Ask for advice, and get a friend to help. If a friend is doing a new project, offer to lend a hand. You’ll pick up ideas and hints. Take classes: Saturday morning classes at the local big-box store can teach you the basics for various homerepair projects. Rule of thumb: Know your limits so you don’t end up paying more for a professional fix. *** David Uffington regrets that he cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into his column whenever possible.

CELEBRITY EXTRA | CINDY ELAVSKY

‘Men At Work’ to feature Masterson Q: I really liked “That ’70s Show,” especially Danny Masterson. I haven’t really seen him in anything lately and was wondering what shows/movies he has lined up. — Leonard G., via e-mail A: TBS just announced that it is producing a new series called “Men at Work,” which will star Danny along with James Lesure, Michael Cassidy and Adam Busch. The story follows the misadventures of four friends who work together at a magazine, with Danny’s character, Milo, being recently dumped and his friends helping him get back in the game. Slated to premiere this summer, the show was created by Breckin Meyer (of “Franklin and Bash” and “Clueless” fame), who is co-executive-producing the show and also wrote the pilot. There’s no word yet on whether Breckin plans to make a cameo in the series. *** Q: My husband is a huge fan of the History Channel, especially its series “Battlefield Detectives.” Any chance it will come out on DVD? I’d love to surprise him with it! — Kaitlin M., in Minnesota A: Surprise your husband this

Valentine’s Day with a three-volume boxed set of the entire first season of the series. “Battlefield Detectives,” which ran from 2003 to 2006, explored history’s famous battles, focusing on the battlefield itself and conducting re-enactments and forensic research to better understand what really happened. The DVDs also come with a 16page viewer’s guide and biographies of major military leaders, plus other extras. Go to acornonline.com for more info on the series. *** Q: You mentioned that Madonna will be performing the halftime show at the Super Bowl this year, and it got me to wondering if Animal Planet will be continuing its tradition of showcasing its “Puppy Bowl” competition. Please say yes! — Cara O., Halifax, Nova Scotia A: YES! Animal Planet’s annual canine competition, “Puppy Bowl VIII,” will air on Sunday, Feb. 5, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. ET/PT. Animal Planet has searched shelters and rescue groups across the nation for the toughest pups ever to carry a chew toy across the goal line and into an

end zone. And if you want to skip (or DVR) Madonna’s halftime show, the cute and cuddly kittens are returning to “Puppy Bowl” with an all-new edition of the Bissell Kitty Halftime Show. All of the animals featured in “Puppy Bowl” come from rescues and shelters across the United States. This year’s starting lineup includes puppies from spcaLA, All Star Pet Rescue, Go Boxer Rescue, Pet Matchmaker Rescue, Furever Dachshund Rescue and Huts for Mutts Dog Rescue. Those interested in adopting a pet in your area can visit petfinder.com. *** Q: Aside from her Twitter ramblings, what else has Ellen Barkin been up to? — Ingrid F., via e-mail A: Ellen just finished filming a guest-starring role on “Modern Family,” which will air this spring. Her movie “Another Happy Day,” which also stars Ellen Burstyn, Demi Moore, Kate Bosworth and Thomas Hayden Church, will be out on DVD in late January.

SENIOR NEWS LINE | MATILDA CHARLES

Winter no excuse not to exercise Are you tired of winter? You’re not alone. Too many of us have cocooned as temperatures have dropped, often not leaving the house for days or more. We need to get moving, one way or the other, and here are some ways we can: Look for exercise programs on TV, especially if you have cable. “Sit and Be Fit” is a show with exercises for seniors and others with physical limitations. All the exercises are done while seated. Check the website (www.sitandbefit.org) to learn where the show airs on public television. If you have On Demand, look at the Exercise TV section for other workout shows. Look for the walking in place programs or those geared to sen-

iors. Check into Tai Chi or QiGong classes geared to seniors. These are gentle, flowing movements that can be done even sitting in a chair if balance is an issue. (They’ll help with strengthening core muscles, which actually can help with balance problems.) If transportation is a concern (or if you don’t like driving in winter) ask if the senior center has a van that can pick you up for classes. Parks and recreation also is a potential source of rides, as is social services. You’re more likely to go to your class if someone is coming to pick you up! If you’re in an area with snow and ice (but are other-

wise sturdy on your feet), look for indoor places to walk. If you’re determined to walk for exercise, look into grips that attach to shoes. Search the Internet for “Stabilicers” and ask if your local shoe store can order something similar. *** Matilda Charles regrets that she cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into her column whenever possible.

STRANGE BUT TRUE | SAMANTHA WEAVER

Americans consume 90 million cans of beer a day • It was noted 20th-century poet T.S. Eliot who made the following sage observation: “Some editors are failed writers, but so are most writers.” • The United States’ first railroad was built in 1809 in Crown Creek, Pa., by a man named Thomas Leiper. It had wooden tracks. • When the now-classic television show “Gilligan’s Island” first aired in 1964, critics were not impressed. The review published in the San Francisco Chronicle said, “It is difficult to believe that this show was written, directed and produced by adults. It marks a new low in the networks’ estimation of public intelligence.” The show went on to air for three seasons and spurred three

TV movie sequels. • Believing that beards and long hair were too easy for enemies to grab, Alexander the Great ordered his soldiers to shave their faces and heads before going into battle. • You hear a lot about the isolationism of Switzerland — the country that’s always neutral in any conflict — but you might be surprised to learn how serious they are about it. The country’s system of roads is mined in 2,000 places and can be demolished in the space of 10 minutes. • Are you doing your share? If you’ve had a beer

today, you’ve contributed to the approximately 90 million cans of the brew that are consumed by Americans every day. • When the territory that later became the state of Alaska was purchased from Russia in 1867, the cost came out to about 2 cents per acre. • It’s not clear why, but it seems that fine hair grows faster than coarse hair. *** Thought for the Day: “My father taught me to work, but not to love it. I never did like to work, and I don’t deny it. I’d rather read, tell stories, crack jokes, talk, laugh — anything but work.” — Abraham Lincoln

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The changes you’ve waited to see in your work situation might not be happening quite as quickly as you’d hoped. Although the pace is slow, it’s ongoing. Expect to hear news soon. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You should be feeling very proud of the fine effort you’ve made to get that important project done. Now take some time out to celebrate with family and friends. You’ve earned it. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You’re close to reaching your objectives. That’s the good news. But be careful: Your aspects show lots of potential distractions looming. Stay focused and keep your eyes fixed on your goals. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Be careful not to let that suspicious Cancerian mind create a problem where none exists. What you might believe is an act of betrayal could be nothing more than a misunderstanding. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Your Lion’s heart overflows with self-confidence. All you need to do is tap into it, and you’ll be able to handle any change that must be made regarding that recent surprise development. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) The need to watch what you say becomes increasingly crucial this week. Be as temperate as you can with your comments and avoid arguments for the sake of controversy. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) A longtime family problem presents new demands. But this time, you won’t have to go it alone: Someone else is asking to help share your responsibilities. Let it happen. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A period of feeling vulnerable is about to give way to a stronger, more self-confident aspect. Use this new strength to reaffirm promises you’ve made to others and yourself. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) A creative dilemma stalls your progress. Instead of letting it raise your ire, use the time to re-examine your aims and, perhaps, come up with a new target. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Your nimble will finds a way for you to work out those newly emerged problems plaguing your new project. Stay with it. The results will be well worth your efforts. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You might feel overwhelmed at having to decide which new opportunity you should follow. Best advice: Check them all out and see which offers what you really want. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Continue to tread water before you even consider plunging into something that never seemed quite right. Some facts will soon emerge that can help you make a decision. BORN THIS WEEK: You’re a natural-born peacemaker. You value truth and have little patience with those who lie to you for their own purposes. © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.
