TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS
DRIVING THE WILD WEST A lot of us thoroughly enjoy a driving vacation from time to time. The freedom of doing it all on your own with no time schedule is one of the selling points of this type of holiday. We live in the West, so why not see the West as best we can. The scenery is wonderful and varied and the roads are mostly good. All you need is an up-to-date atlas or maps and a sound vehicle; then loosely plan your days on the road. I suggest considering what was known in other days as the Wild West because of its many points of interest. Let’s first drive to Salt Lake City and perhaps stay two nights. There are some interestKEN BROOKS ing areas to visit including Temple Square with its museums. The city is easy to get around in, with wide streets downtown and fine hotels and motels. You will find Salt Lake City residents friendly and helpful in giving directions to various interesting locations. From here, head north and drive to Jackson, Wyo. Put on your cowboy hats and boots because this is the Old West. Plan to spend two nights here resting up from the drive. You won’t want to miss exploring the Town Square with its boardwalks, craft boutiques and ice cream shops. The town itself is bordered by the majestic Rocky Mountains. I suggest you stay at the Antler Inn. Onward to the Snake River where you can board a float trip through the scenic area, and later you will come upon the rugged Grand Teton Mountains. These remind you of those mountains found in the Canadian Rockies. Here, you can enjoy Jenny Lake then enter Yellowstone National Park. Here you will find over 10,000 hot geysers, fumaroles, hot springs, mud pots and steam vents highlighted by a stop to witness Old Faithful belch its blast of hot water from below. Find your way to the visitors center where you can collect a lot of information about the area. It’s easy to get around Yellowstone and the roads are very good. You might do well to stay at the National Park Lodges. You may wish to book a Yellowstone National Park tour so as to easily get around and not miss the important points of interest. You can get tour information at the visitors center or at a Web site. Don’t miss the West Thumb Geyser Basin, Yellowstone Falls and other points you will want to photograph. I suggest you book your lodging early this year as accommodations fill up quickly. Then, travel down, down, down into the Shoshone Canyon and the rugged Absarok Mountains until you reach the rustic Wild West town of Cody. It was named after Buffalo Bill Cody. You can take time to explore the Buffalo Bill Historical Center and the world’s largest collection of Western artifacts.
Metro Creative Services
Get out the school calendar, maps and atlases and start planning an old-fashioned family road trip for the upcoming spring and summer breaks from school.
Later in the day, enjoy stunning scenery as you cross the Big Horn Mountains and Bighorn National Forest. Try and book a room at the Ranch at Ucross in Clearmont, which is a real working ranch in the foothills of the Bighorn Mountains. When the dinner bell rings, its time for chow. The next morning, have a hearty breakfast and then enjoy activities galore on the ranch. You can even saddle up and do some horseback riding around the ranch or have a game of horseshoes. You can stay an extra night here or head east through the National Grasslands to the famous Black Hills of South Dakota. At Thunderhead Mountain, gaze in awe at the Crazy Horse Memorial that is being carved into the mountainside. It is the world’s largest sculpture and honors the famous war chief of the Dakota people. On now to the small town of Keystone, which was once a booming gold mining town. Next, it’s viewing famed Mount Rushmore. You have seen it in photos and movies, now see it in person. It took 400 artisans 14 years to carve the 6-foot sculptures of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln into the mountain. Try and book a reservation at the K-Bar-S Lodge for the night. You can now drive to Bear Country USA, a wildlife park featuring the world’s largest private collection of American black bears. You are permitted to drive through this spectacular and unique wildlife park and then walk through the Wildlife Center, where young and smaller animals can be
viewed in their natural setting. You can also ride the 1880 Train, an authentic steam engine train from Hill City back to Keystone. All of this is in the Black Hills. On another day follow the trail to old Fort Laramie, the best-known milepost on the Oregon Trail. At the fort’s living history exhibits, learn about the harsh world of the pioneer family as they fought distance, unforgiving terrain and weather to reach Oregon. Now, to Denver, the “Mile High City” next to the Rockies. From here, you can drive back home. Take your time; there is still a lot of great scenery to enjoy. ON ANOTHER NOTE
I recently came across an advertisement about a floating condominium barge soon to be constructed and based on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers as well as the shores
of the Gulf states. They are selling partial and full ownerships priced from $55,000 on up. I saw a film on the Internet and it looks interesting. You can get more information at www.RiverCitiesCondos .com or phoning (651) 344-5975. As we have mentioned in earlier articles, there have never been such low rates as can be found on many ships cruising the Caribbean. It’s because there are too many ships out there right now. Why not treat yourselves to good, warm weather and the inclusiveness of a cruise with all onboard meals, your room and entertainment wrapped up in the fare. Don’t forget, Princess Cruises are offering short West Coast cruises out of Los Angeles this March. It will make a good break and a cruise sampler if you have never cruised before. Have fun planning your next outing!

AMERICAN HUSTLE
A COMPLETELY SATISFYING FILM
A film with 10 Academy Award nominations gives we movie fans the idea that a particular film might just have something extraordinary to offer. This time the idea makes perfect sense. Do you want to see a movie that combines outstanding acting, tight direction and a deft, clever and believable script? You have found the movie of the week, and perhaps the movie of the year. Stay tuned for the Oscar awards. The ensemble cast of Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence received the rare accolade of nominations (in order) for best actor, best actress, best supporting actor and best supporting actress. Can you name a film in which the cast received the nod for all four major acting awards (answer below)?

A different take on Bigfoot Civil engineer turned author Valerie Farr visited Payson Saturday to sign copies of her book “Ailiya — The Lost Sasquatch.” Farr said of her work, it is “unlike any that I have heard or read concerning Bigfoot.” Farr was born in Arizona and raised throughout the Southwest. “My family moved often and we lived in Nevada and New Mexico as well as many locations throughout Arizona, including a year in Kayenta on the Navajo Indian Reservation. “I went to high school in Thatcher, where I worked as a reporter and did the photo developing and printing for the Eastern Arizona Courier.” Farr received a bachelor’s of science degree in civil engineering from Northern Arizona University. She is a licensed professional engineer and worked in construction engineering as well as forensic engineering. Talking about her novel Farr explained the main character, Ailiya, is a young Bigfoot. “I spent six to nine months doing research on traditional native foods, healing methods, geologic history and local history,” Farr said of the preparation she did for bringing her story to life. This is book one of a trilogy; book two should be complete next year, she said. Farr shared the synopsis of the book with the Rim Review. What follows are excerpts: “The Elo-ai-ne Race; known to some as Sasquatch, Yeti, Yeren or Bigfoot, has inhabited all continents, since the earth was formed. They have been the protectors of the earth, animals and the people of the land. However, as the traditional tribal peoples of the land were scattered, fewer Elo-ai-ne were born. Most of the newborns were male, leaving many without mates. These rogue Elo-ai-ne became the ones known to attack and harass humans. “Ailiya is a young Elo-ai-ne who has been left on her own, with none of her kind near to guide her. She lives by herself in a remote canyon near Sedona, Arizona ... “A reporter ... inadvertently captures proof that sasquatch exists, when she photographs Ailiya at the site of a new golf course ... the explosions of the groundbreaking ceremony ...

When we viewers justly reward for excellence, my heart leaps. It encourages others to produce wonderful films for us to watch. It carries an R rating for language and adult situations, but thankfully has none of the excesses that spoiled “Wolf of Wall Street” for many viewers. We also get good time value, the film lasts two hours and 18 minutes. In 2012 “Silver Linings Playbook” took nominations for all four acting top slots, best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay. David O. Russell knows his stuff.

ant Valley War. It was about 1889 when rancher Jesse Ellison laid claim to the valley of Spring Creek north of the Houdon ranch. The Ellisons ran cattle there and Jesse’s son Perl settled the Spring Creek Ranch. The son of Perl was Glenn “Slim” Ellison, well known cowboy author and sketch artist. It was in the mountain at their end of the valley that Houdon had mined, and there the Ellisons struck gold. In 1903 a wrangler on Ellison’s Spring Creek Ranch named Carrel Andrew Wilbanks bought a portion the land. He brought along his own “Flying W” brand, and so named the new ranch. Wilbanks was married to Ruth Stewart, daughter of the Sam Stewarts of Payson. They ran 4,000 head of cattle and their spread included

Wilbanks was shot in the chest and killed near Spring Creek as he prepared to drive 1,000 head of cattle to the railhead at Holbrook. One historian researching the Flying W history quoted correspondence with a Wilbanks’ relative in Texas who wrote, “Carrel Senior who owned the ranch was shot and killed by his brother William on a cattle drive. William got off without serving jail time but caused a split in the family.” Things quieted down on Spring Creek after that. Carrel Wilbanks Junior was 17 when his dad was killed and he took charge of the cattle drive, getting them safely to Holbrook. He took over the ranch, cared for the family and finally bought out all of this father’s land and cattle. Carrel Jr. married Leslie Greer and they sold the ranch 1948. Carrel Jr. died in 1977 and is buried in the Payson Pioneer Cemetery where his father is also interred. The Flying W Ranch was then operated by a series of owners. The modern ranch buildings stand not far from the historic Houdon cabin, and Spring Creek remains a beautiful and primitive place in the Sierra Ancha.

COVER STORY | PETE ALESHIRE
HEART OF
JAZZ
Payson crowd delights in tour of a century of brilliant music
Three music-obsessed chums took a near-sellout, foot-tapping Payson crowd on a sly and ecstatic tour of a century of musical innovation and improvisation Sunday. The Jesse Lynch Trio conducted a witty, tender, two-hour summary of the century-long evolution of jazz, from its roots in the songs of slaves to the sometimes inaccessible delight of the most sophisticated of musicians. The Tonto Community Concert Association filled the 800-seat Payson High School Auditorium with an enthusiastic crowd that grooved to the big band swing that ruled the musical world in the 1940s, but knitted their brows at the free-form, dissonant, melodyless styles of modern jazz. “Jazz has been a living organ that has evolved over the century,” explained pianist Jesse Lynch, of the ceaseless shift and innovation that has marked jazz, distinguished in large measure for its reliance on musical improvisation without a loose framework. Lynch, Joe Michaels on bass and Matt Smallcomb on drums served as the intent, but genial tour conductors — high school friends that snuck away during lunch hour to secretly play improvisational jazz in Pennsylvania. In a triumph of friendship, trust and passion, they’re now on an 80-city tour trying to illustrate the mysteries of a distinctly American form of music that has persisted with startling originality. Started with slave songs Jazz started by adapting slave songs and African music to European forms and instruments, absorbed a dose of Cuban music and picked up and played with everything that came along for 100 years, like a delighted child in a tipped over toy store. In the process, jazz influenced most other forms of western music in the past century, including rock, rap, hip hop and even country through its connections with the blues. A gifted pianist who never looked at a sheet of music or a song list in two hours of wide-ranging play, Lynch originally went to New York determined to convince some big-name musician to help him launch a band — only to realize that what he really wanted to do was to continue riffing and improvising with his childhood friends. Like all musicians, they’ve had to scramble and adapt. But the concert made it clear that jazz remains their first love, along with the playful interchange made possible by their deep knowledge of

one another. The trio tackled a huge topic, given the complexity and relentless changes in jazz. They made the effort without trumpets, saxophones or sultry singers — which limited the range of sound and feeling they could explore. Music from Africa, Cuba, Europe Jazz emerged at the start of the 20th century, combining key elements of African American elements with European harmonies and elements of form. Jazz has always relied on complexities like expressive, low-pitched blue notes, open-ended improvisation, surprising, disruptive polyrhythms, offbeat syncopation and the headlong, almost impossible to define swing note. Black musicians in New Orleans fused these elements into the first strains of jazz, starting in the early 1910s, where it incubated along with the blues. The birth of this remarkable and adaptable musical form launched a century of improvisation and debate. Jazz always existed in a state of tension between purists and popularizers. Fierce innovators explored the frontiers, followed by musicians and composers anxious to harvest the most striking elements and then adapt them to popular tastes to seek commercial success. As a result, jazz advanced and veers — consolidated and receded all through that century. Just as Elvis Presley would later draw on the gospel and blues of black bands to launch rock and roll, white composers and musicians adopted jazz. Ragtime makes its appearance This led first to ragtime that dominated between CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

The many forms of jazz FROM PAGE 6
Pete Aleshire photo
Joe Michaels plays bass for the Jesse Lynch Trio. He and his fellow ensemble members shared the history of jazz and examples of its many forms at the Jan. 26 program presented by the Tonto Community Concert Association.
the 1890s and 1910s, with classical trained pianist Scott Joplin perhaps the best known of its practitioners, with his complicated right-handed syncopations and adroit use of patterns from both African and Cuban music. But jazz came into its own in the 1920s and 1930s with prohibition. Jazz became the music of the speakeasies and the roaring ’20s. Cultural conservatives were aghast at its black roots and sensual rhythms, but brilliant musicians like Louis Armstrong won the day. Major composers took up the form, which dominated the musical scene in Chicago and elsewhere. Swing bands dominate music scene This led to the popular triumph of jazz with the arrival in the 1930s of the huge, brassy, big swing bands of people like Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey and Artie Shaw in the 1930s. Initially, the terrifically popular dance bands that took advantage
of the development of radio included only white musicians. As color barriers weakened in the 1940s, black musicians began to join the enormously successful swing bands. In the next great shift in this restless musical style, bebop jazz musicians in the 1940s and 1950s begin to compose and improvise their own music, with giants like Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk and Dizzy Gillespie leading the way. This marked the start of “modern jazz” with more intense creativity, innovation and a focus on individual musicians — but also a shift away from the domination of popular music. These musicians expected people to sit and listen to the songs, not jump up and dance. So they used faster tempos, the drumming shifted to a more subtle and unpredictable style — leading to more highly syncopated and complex compositions. Commercially, jazz fell back before the onslaught of rock and roll, but still drew avid followers and brilliant musicians. The Rock and Roll of its time
“Jazz was the rock and roll of its time,” said Lynch. “Then we had the Beatles.” With music that mirrors the abstractions of the art scene, jazz musicians freely drew on Africa, South America and the Caribbean for new sounds and rhythms. Jazz fusion even drew in elements of rock and roll. Near the end of the show, the trio played cuts off the two bestselling jazz albums of all time — one by Miles Davis the other by David Brubeck. That’s hardly all of it, of course. The trio dropped names, played tributes, traded jokes all through the show, trying to condense an explosive century of innovation into a handful of songs. In the end, they succeeded, although the audience struggled with the complexities and vanishing melody of the modern jazz. Still, what emerged with perfect clarity was their love of the music — and the soaring effort of this great extended family of musicians to find the thing they loved. Call it jazz.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Some unsettling facts about a past situation could come to light. And while you’d love to deal with it immediately, it’s best to get more information to support your case. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A straightforward approach to a baffling situation is best. Don’t allow yourself to be drawn into an already messy mass of tangles and lies. Deal with it and move on. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Don’t be discouraged or deterred by a colleague’s negative opinion about your ideas. It could actually prove to be helpful when you get around to finalizing your plan. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Ignore that sudden attack of “modesty,” and step up to claim the credit you’ve so rightly earned. Remember: A lot of people are proud of you and want to share in your achievement. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) A financial “deal” that seems to be just right for you Leos and Leonas could be grounded more in gossamer than substance. Get an expert’s advice to help you check it out. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Don’t ignore that suddenly cool or even rude attitude from someone close to you. Asking for an explanation could reveal a misunderstanding you were completely unaware of. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Unless you have sound knowledge, and not just an opinion, it’s best not to step into a family dispute involving a legal matter, regardless of whom you support. Leave that to the lawyers. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) An awkward situation presents the usually socially savvy Scorpian with a problem. But a courteous and considerate approach soon helps clear the air and ease communication. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) A calmer, less-tense atmosphere prevails through much of the week, allowing you to restore your energy levels before tackling a new challenge coming up by week’s end. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Your approach to helping with a friend or family member’s problem could boomerang unless you take time to explain your method and how and why it (usually!) works. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Someone who gave you a lot of grief might ask for a chance for the two of you to make a fresh start. You need to weigh the sincerity of the request carefully before giving your answer. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Too much fantasizing about an upcoming decision could affect your judgment. Better to make your choices based on what you know now rather than on what you might learn later. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a way of seeing the best in people and helping them live up to their potential. © 2014 King Features Syndicate

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
Probiotics: Good germs come to the rescue BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D. ©2014 NORTH AMERICA SYND.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I am a 69-year-old woman, writing to you for information on probiotics. After taking antibiotics for a sinus infection, I developed diarrhea and bloating. I had many tests and scans. Everything was OK. My symptoms continued. On my third visit, they took a stool specimen, which showed yeasts. The doctor suggested I go to a health food store and buy probiotics. I did, and a miracle happened: My diarrhea stopped. Is yogurt considered probiotics? For how long and how often should you take probiotics? — N.A. ANSWER: Probiotics contain live microorganisms that promote health when eaten. Microorganisms are bacteria and fungi. The thought of swigging down bacteria or fungi might be a turnoff. However, these microorganisms are the good kind, not the kind that cause infections. They work for us. Probiotics can restore to the digestive tract the normal balance between good and bad germs. They also appear to have a stimulatory effect on the immune system. Probiotics come as tablets, cheeses, milk, yogurts, juices and other drinks. The labels on these products must say “live and active cultures.” The names of the organisms most often used are lactobacillus, bifidobacterium and sacchromyces. Some brand names of probiotics are Culturelle, Align, Floraster and the yogurt Activia. Curbing diarrhea is only one use for these products. They’re also used for irritable bowel syndrome and other conditions. Yogurt is a probiotic if it contains live cultures. How long can you take them? That’s a question that can’t be answered. The studies haven’t been done. The side effects from probiotics are few. It seems to me that you can use the yogurt probiotics forever. The others are probably equally safe for long-term use, but definite statements aren’t possible. The labels on the products ought to tell you how long they can be used and in what doses to use them. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I would like to comment on your article on bed-wetting. I am 68 and was a bedwetter when I was little. It was during an era when children were supposed to be potty trained at young ages. I remember the rituals my parents went through to break me of this habit that, I suppose, was embarrassing to them. I eventually outgrew it. My first-born daughter also was a bed-wetter. I resolved not to make a big deal of it. Every morning we removed the sheets and pjs, and washed her ... never harping about her “problem.” She outgrew it. Two of her five children were bed-wetters, too. She never dwelt on it. Perhaps bed-wetting has a genetic basis. Parents ought not to grumble and blame their children. We should be thankful for such small challenges and for having normal children. — S.B. ANSWER: Genes strongly influence bed-wetting. If one parent was a bed-wetter, the child has a 45 percent chance of also being one. If both parents were, their child has a 75 percent chance of wetting the bed. Genes are a big factor. Bed-wetting is involuntary. The child is in no way responsible. In my opinion, punishing or humiliating a child for wetting the bed is child abuse. Readers may write to Dr. Donohue or request an order form of available health newsletters at P.O.
