TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS

Touring Eastern Europe and Dracula’s castle Is this the year you are considering travel to Europe? The tour companies are telling us early bookings suggest a busy travel year in Europe. Airfares remain as high as they were last year, but travelers continue to flood the Continent. Eastern Europe is gaining popularity. You may be interested in knowing that when a period film is set in old Europe many exterior scenes are shot in Bulgaria and Romania. A lot of modernization has not occurred here yet. This is a part of Europe that still has narrow streets and so much architecture resembles the 13th and 14th centuries. Even the castles look almost foreboding. Eastern Europe is Europe’s most up-andcoming destination with its lush history and culture of Transylvania, Bucharest and more. KEN BROOKS Let’s do an imaginary 13-day tour of the area. We begin with a regularly scheduled overnight flight to Sofia, Bulgaria. Being greeted by our tour manager with a warm “Dobre Doshal,” which is welcome in Bulgarian, we are transferred to a nice hotel for check-in, a warm shower and a few hours of sleep after the long flight. That evening you meet the others that are part of the tour along and enjoy a fine dinner. The next morning, wake up refreshed and ready for some interesting sightseeing. Sofia is one of the European Union’s newest and most walkable capitals. With a guide leading the way, pass the parliament building, Viennese-style royal palace and the restored national theater, stopping along the way to admire the golden Ottoman domes that distinguish Sofia’s skyline. You have yet to see cathedrals and much more. In the afternoon you’ll want to spend some time in some of the cathedrals to examine the many art pieces displayed. On the following morning drive to Viliko Tarnovo, a city set against the Yantra River. With a local guide, you’ll see scores of ancient ruins and crumbling fortresses that lend the city an old-world feel. Why not meander among the Samovodska Charshi district’s high stone walls, balconied homes and narrow, cobbled streets? This is what you probably came for, an old Europe look. You can enter the Tsarevets Fortress, once a citadel, now a relic of the city’s storied

Travel through Eastern Europe and you will see countless castles, palaces, cathedrals and history.

past. After a full day of sightseeing its time to freshen up and enjoy dinner. The next day, it’s off on more amazing sightseeing. At the foot of the Trapezitsa and Tsarevets hills, and just outside Veliko Tarmovo’s medieval fortifications, discover one last sight: the Church of St. Demetrius of Thessaloniki. Then we board a motor coach destined for the Black Sea coast. There will be several interesting stops along the way. Your destination is Varna, where a feast of a dinner awaits you. Now its time for a free day on your own. Walk the many streets, including the ambling beach walks, to take in the local doings and culture, with a stroll through Primorski Park; and then have lunch at an inviting little restaurant. In the afternoon take a side trip to the coastal village of Balchik and the Kap Kaliakra peninsula for some stunning cliffside photography of the Black Sea and a visit to a Romanian queen’s summer villa. Late in the afternoon the coach will take you back to Varna. This morning, say goodbye to Bulgaria as you head for Bucharest. There will be fascinating stops along the way. Cross the Danube River and continue on to

Bucharest. Rest well this night for there are all kinds of wonderful scenes the next day. Here you will find classical buildings, some from the Art Deco to Neo Classical eras. Take a walk down Victory Street, the city’s oldest boulevard. Admire the ornate Trumphal Arch, lavish Savings Bank and Ceausescu’s grandiose palace, constructed under the Communist regime. Continue on to distinctive squares and soon come to the Village Museum, which is outdoors and the largest of its kind anywhere. It will give you a view into Romanian village life and folk traditions. From here, you can simply explore on until your feet won’t take anymore walking. Then it’s back to the hotel for the evening. Time now to travel into the heart of Transylvania to Sibiu. Traditionally, vampires have been Transylvania’s claim to fame, but slowly and steadily, the region is gaining acclaim for its culturally rich cities. Recently Sibiu was proclaimed the Capital of Culture. Why? Your guided tour will begin in the old town, taking in the towering gates and walls that prettily enclose the city. Next, enter the Lutheran Cathedral, a breathtaking example of Gothic architec-

ture. Now, cross the cast-iron Liar’s Bridge and find yourself entering Huet Square and its mix of Gothic buildings. Stand in one place and focus on the breathtaking Gothic architecture of the buildings that surround you. You will be clicking your camera many times here. Tonight, enjoy your Romanian dinner with a glass of local wine. Many say it’s the finest in Europe. With the next day free, you will be itching to leave your hotel to explore the several parks and to walk down the cobble stone streets. This is really old Europe at its finest. I suggest also a tour to medieval Saxon villages that will remind you of the Dracula movies you have seen. All you need is the foreboding music that accompanied the sound tracks. Of course you can’t leave Transylvania without visiting the legendary Bran Castle. With the Carpathian Mountains as your backdrop, make your way to medieval Brasov for a walking tour of the city’s historic center, narrow alleyways, stone walls and towering Gothic churches. On your way back to Sibiu, stop in Bran for a guided tour of Dracula’s Castle. It is a national monument and landmark in Romania situated between Transylvania and Wallachia. It became famous when Bram Stoker introduced Dracula in his book, which is in fact based on legend. Many of the locals believe in the legend of Dracula and his terrible deeds. Some even believe in vampires. It’s up to you, but touring the ancient castle may help you believe the legend. All you will need is Bella Lugosi as your tour leader. This is a dramatic fortress castle and worthy of some time. The rugged surroundings also complement the castle. There are more places and castles to explore on your way back to Bucharest for a night’s stay before boarding your scheduled flight back to the good old U.S.A. You have to be in good shape to enjoy this Eastern European tour because it requires a lot of walking in order to relish the towns and cities to their fullest. Be sure to take a raincoat and umbrella because you never know how much it will rain. This will be one of those trips you will always remember. I strongly suggest your taking the time to consult a travel agent who will give you brochures outlining the itineraries and tour features, prices and what is included. It’s wise to plan well.

FIRM FOUNDATION | SIMONE LAKE

What is it about a Sunday that solidifies Resurrection Sunday (also known as Easter)? And why is it so important that Sunday is comin’? There is an extremely important significance about this particular day in history where Jesus, the Messiah, spoken about for centuries prior, finally arrives on earth, fulfills His God ordained task then returns to heaven where He is right now and forever

SUNDAY’S COMIN’

sitting on the right hand of God almighty praying for us! I love it! What a faithful and excellent Savior that we have in Him, not to mention a faithful and excellent Prayer Partner. For Him to have the right hand seat next to the highest majestic authority is enough to recognize THIS Sunday. Jesus has fulfilled the very promise first given way back in Genesis, the first book of the Bible. The promise God made of reconciling a lost world to

Himself and sealing that deal by promising with Himself ... God sends His Son to bring this promise in full fruition. Thank you Jesus! So what’s so special about THIS Sunday and THIS holiday? The holiday where TV commercials are marketing chocolate eggs with caramel oozing out of the middle, grocery aisles are bombarded with bright colorful candy, fashionistas who are power shopping for the perfect outfit (compete

with shoes) and large to life bunnies hosting large to life egg hunts. All these things are nice for a very short time, but will fade. What is so special about THIS Sunday are these words… Jesus says, “After three days I will rise again.” And He did. THANK YOU JESUS! He was crucified, dead and buried ... but He victoriously rose up and ascended to heaven. CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

Andy Towle photos

Chefs from The Randall House, above left, and The Historic Journigan House, above right, will share their wares and a bit of the atmosphere from their restaurants at the Taste of Rim event.

Food, wine, books = bliss Library patrons and food lovers rejoice! It’s time for 2013’s Taste of Rim Country. Participating in the feast and festivities are: Cake Love by Monica; Creekside Steakhouse; Gerardo’s Firewood Café; The Journigan House; Mazatzal Bakers (casino); Miss Fitz 260 Café; Payson High School Culinary Club; Randall House; and Zane Grey Restaurant. Some participants are familiar contributors; others are taking part for the first time. Barbara O’Conner and The Randall House have been part of the fun for more years than she can count, but they keep coming back because it is a fun event and a great way to support the library, she said. They come away with new customers too. This year the organizers, the Library Friends of Payson, decided to let the participants showcase the restaurants as they wished, so no theme was imposed. O’Conner said she and her staff will give patrons a sample of the atmosphere at The Randall House by bringing some of the décor to their station. The food they will be sampling: a salad and a dessert. First-time participant Kevin Mystrom of The Historic Journigan House said his station would probably feature a theme representing Historic Payson. While, Mystrom has not taken part in A Taste of Rim Country before, a couple of his chefs have been involved and they will be sharing items from the lunch and dinner menus. It is one of the best parties of the year – every year, the annual A Taste of Rim Country, presented by the Library Friends of Payson.

This showcase for both professional and aspiring Rim Country chefs is from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., Saturday, March 9 at the Payson Public Library. The event is a gala evening to sample the great skills and foods offered in the Rim Country and enjoy a selection of wines or sparkling cider. During the evening, guests may cast a ballot for their favorite chef. The chef who receives the most votes is named “Best of the Best” and given a trophy, recognizing their official status. In addition to sampling the delicious food and wine, guests can also bid on a wide selection of Silent Auction items, ranging from a catered five-course dinner for six to fine art work, jewelry and many other specialty items. There will also be a 50/50 raffle, with half of the proceeds going to a very lucky winner. Fred Carpenter, DJ, will provide music for the evening. Tickets are $30 per person. All proceeds support the Payson Public Library and its various ongoing programs. Tickets are available for purchase at the Payson Public Library, with half the cost of the ticket being tax deductible. Don’t wait to get your ticket, as they are limited and will not be sold at the door on the evening of the event. Helping the Library Friends of Payson as sponsors of the 2013 event are Terry Morris and Family; Pioneer Title; and Chris Smith. To learn more, please call the Payson Public Library at (928) 474-9260 or online visit www.libraryfriendsofpayson.org. The event was first held around 1999. It was a unique

fund-raising idea proposed to then-president of the Library Friends of Payson, Judy Buettner. “Carolyn Wall told me about the Mayor’s Cup chef competition in Scottsdale,” Buettner recalled. “She suggested we do something similar and send the winner of our contest to the one in Scottsdale.” Thinking it was a great idea to help raise money to build the new library in Rumsey Park, Buettner put a committee together and they went to work. “I think the Scottsdale event was in March. We started in January and had to work fast to get ours done before that to have someone go to theirs.” Originally A Taste of Rim Country was called “The Payson Mayor’s Cup Appetizer Competition.” Buettner said there was not a lot of encouragement from the town’s mayor and no municipal financial support. In spite of the lack of encouragement, the first Taste of Rim Country was almost more successful than the Library Friends and participating chefs could handle. About 500 tickets were sold, and more were wanted. “People were calling the radio station trying to get them. People were calling me for tickets,” Buettner said. Initially 11 chefs had signed up, but one dropped out, so there were 10 — and that has been the goal for each subsequent Taste of Rim Country event. The Tonto Apache Tribal Recreation Center gym was rented and decorated. Wine was donated and arrangements were made for music. The first year, artists were also invited to exhibit their work between the chefs’ stations and all of them donated work for the raffle. CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

“I wanted to bring it up to a higher level of fund-raising,” Buettner said. The winner of the first A Taste of Rim Country was the old Black Bear in Strawberry, and they went on to win the People’s Choice Award at the Scottsdale event. Buettner said the event raised about $9,000. In spite of that first, great success, there were a couple of years it was not held, Buettner said. It was re-instituted by John and Sue Wilson, she said. “Historically the money from the event has gone into our building expansion fund,” said retired library director Terry Morris. When it started, the library was still at the Womans Club on Main Street, Morris said. However, for now, the current expansion project is on hold. Because of space limitations, the event generally features only 10 chefs and has only 300 tickets available for purchase at $30 each. And, as a rule, it has always sold out. “We really have wonderful support from our residents,” Morris said. Most of the guests at the event are from the area, but there are also people who travel to Payson to take part.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) With your practical side dominant this week, it’s a good time to reassess your finances to see what expenses you can cut. Aspects also favor mending fraying relationships. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your Bovine-inspired determination to follow matters through from beginning to end pays off in a big way. Enjoy a well-earned weekend of fun with a special someone. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Aspects favor re-establishing business relationships you might have neglected. A family member’s request needs to be given more thought before you make a decision. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) While you might appreciate the avalanche of advice coming from others, keep in mind that the intuitive Moon Child is best served by listening to her or his own inner voice. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) The Lion’s social life whirls at centrifugal speed this week as you go from function to function. Things slow by week’s end, giving you a chance to catch up on your chores. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Don’t let your stand on an issue cause a rift with a colleague. Insist on both of you taking time to reassess your positions while there’s still room for compromise. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) An opportunity you’d been hoping for finally opens up. But read the fine print before you make a commitment, especially where a time factor might be involved. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Your need to know what’s going on behind the scenes leads you to make some bold moves. Be prepared with a full explanation of your actions if necessary. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) A lot of details need tending to during the early part of the week. The pressure eases by the 20th, allowing you to get back to your major undertaking. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A friend asks you to act on his or her behalf in a dispute. Be careful. You might not have all the facts you need in order to make a fair assessment of the situation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) A new development might require you to cancel some of your plans. But you adapt easily, and by week’s end, you could receive welcome “cheering-up” news. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Your recent workplace accomplishments boost your self-confidence just as you’re about to consider a potentially rewarding, although possibly risky, career move. BORN THIS WEEK: Your love of the arts is equaled only by your strong sense of justice. People can depend on you to always try to do what’s right. © 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

Sunday’s Comin’ FROM PAGE 3

A real to life human example of the Son of God and Son of man… leading the way of what followers in Christ will soon participate in. His crucifixion is filled with pain, brutality, despair, betrayal and anguish. But this story does not end at the cross. Jesus was faithful to His word and His promise to mankind And is faithful to His own who have received Him as Lord and Savior. The definition of Resurrection Sunday and our response to it, is rejoicing in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and recognizing what each of these events can teach us about the character of God. So in honor of Resurrection Sunday, celebrating Jesus, the Savior of the world, I share a famous sermon that has graced many pulpits around the world for many, many years. Historically, its origins are found among African Americans with this sermon often being preached in black churches in the south. It’s Friday Jesus is praying Peter’s a sleeping Judas is betraying But Sunday’s comin’ It’s Friday Pilate’s struggling The council is conspiring The crowd is vilifying They don’t even know That Sunday’s comin’ It’s Friday The disciples are running Like sheep without a shepherd Mary’s crying Peter is denying But they don’t know That Sunday’s a comin’ It’s Friday The Romans beat my Jesus They robe Him in scarlet They crown him with thorns But they don’t know That Sunday’s comin’ It’s Friday See Jesus walking to Calvary His blood dripping His body stumbling And His Spirit’s burdened But you see, it’s; only Friday Sunday’s comin It’s Friday The world’s winning People are sinning And evil’s grinning It’s Friday The soldiers nail my Savior’s hands To the cross They nailed my Savior’s feet To the cross And then they raise Him up Next to criminals It’s Friday But let me tell you something

Sunday’s comin’ It’s Friday The disciplines are questioning What has happened to their King? And the Pharisees are celebrating That their scheming Have been achieved But they don’t know It’s only Friday Sunday’s comin’ It’s Friday He’s hanging on the cross Feeling forsaken by his Father Left alone and dying Can nobody save Him? Ooooh It’s Friday But Sunday’s comin’ It’s Friday The earth trembles The sky grows dark My King yields His Spirit It’s Friday Hope is lost Death has won Sin has conquered And satan’s just a laughin’ It’s Friday Jesus is buried A soldier stands guard And a rock is rolled into place But it’s Friday It is only Friday Sunday is a comin’!

QUESTIONS 1. Have you realized yet that Sunday is comin’? Or are you still living in Friday? If you are, would you turn from lookin’ at Friday and fix your eyes on Sunday focusing on the risen Savior and King. 2. What differences do you see in the world celebrating Easter and Christians celebrating Resurrection Sunday? 3. Would you recognize Jesus as your Savior and follow Him as Lord? PRAYER Dear Lord, How amazing you are to send your Son to seal the deal of my soul being reconciled to You. May I serve you faithfully throughout my life. Holy Spirit, show, guide and lead me in all ways to be faithful to You as you have been faithful to me MORE STUDY: Matthew, Chapters 26-28; Mark, Chapters 14-16; Luke, Chapters 22-24; John, Capters 1821 If you have questions or would like help attaining an intimate relationship with Christ, then feel free to contact me: www.simonelake.com; www.simonelake.blogspot.com; www.deeprootsinchrist .org © Copyright 2013 Simone Lake.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Men do get urinary tract infections BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D. 2013 NORTH AMERICA SYND., INC.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Everything I read about urinary tract infections deals with women, including what you write. I am a 35-year-old man, and I just had a week of antibiotics for a urinary tract infection. Why is there this bias in dealing with female urinary infections over male infections? — J.F. ANSWER: The urinary tract infection we’re talking about is bladder infection, cystitis (sis-TIE-tiss). Both men and women come down with bladder infections, but the number of women who develop such an infection is far, far larger than is the number of men — 30 times the number of men. The main reason for this is an anatomical one. The female urethra, the tube that empties the bladder, is much shorter than the male urethra. That allows bacteria to make their way into the female bladder with relative ease. Furthermore, sexual relations force bacteria into the female urethra, something that doesn’t happen in men. People describe cystitis as a burning pain when passing urine. The infection makes a person want to empty the bladder frequently, and it’s a task that has to be taken care of quickly. At older ages, men develop almost as many bladder infections as do women. That’s because of prostate enlargement. An enlarged prostate gland makes complete emptying of the bladder impossible. Urine stagnates there and sets up an environment that favors bacterial growth. Don’t feel left out because you have had only one bladder infection. Recurrent bladder infections are truly unusual for men. If a man were to develop one bladder infection after another, then his doctor would have to look for conditions that lead to repeated infections. Diabetes is one. So is Crohn’s disease, an inflammation of the digestive tract. The inflammation fosters the development of a tunnel between the bladder and the inflamed area of the tract. Bacteria have free access to the bladder. These are only two examples of why cystitis recurs in few men. The booklet on urinary tract infections explains this common malady in detail and its treatment. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue — No. 1204W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475.

DONOHUE: I take Coumadin because of atrial fibrillation. I’ve taken it for 13 years. Never in all those years has anyone, doctor or nurse, told me not to eat lettuce or other salad greens. My cousin just did. She wasn’t sure why, but she said those foods mess up Coumadin. I have regular blood tests. None has shown that my Coumadin level needs adjusting. What is this green vegetable taboo? — M.O. ANSWER: Coumadin thins blood (prevents clots from forming) by decreasing the production of vitamin K. Green, leafy vegetables — spinach, lettuce, Brussels sprouts — are a rich source of vitamin K. If a person on Coumadin splurges on these vegetables, he or she could block the action of Coumadin. You have gone 13 years taking it. Your blood tests have shown that your diet is not affecting Coumadin’s action. You can eat whatever you wish. Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.
