RODEO DANCE FOR EDUCATION

If spring fever has hit, you might be ready to kick up your heels. The Payson Pro Rodeo Committee is riding to your rescue with a dance Friday April 11 at the Moose Lodge in Star Valley. “It is a fund-raiser for our scholarship fund,” said John Landino of the Payson Pro Rodeo Committee. The dance is from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. featuring music by Junction 87. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. Admission is $10 and the evening will feature a 50/50 raffle, and a silent auction to benefit the Rodeo Committee Scholarship Fund, along with the great live music. The dance is also a glimpse at the fun planned for next month’s Gary Hardt Memorial Rodeo, set for May 16 and 17 with Woman’s Barrel Racing on May 15. “Most people don’t realize the Payson Rodeo Committee is a service organization,” Landino said. “Besides putting on the rodeo, we help people,” Bill Armstrong, chairman of the committee, said. “We provide scholarships and help the chorus and band programs, as well as the athletic programs. “We help kids in need. The program is primarily designed to provide scholarships based more on a student’s need than on their academics,” Armstrong said. In addition, the rodeo has a “Tough enough to Wear Pink” performance each year that helps breast cancer research and support. The other mission of the Payson Pro Rodeo Committee is to keep the Western way of life and heritage alive through rodeos, Armstrong said. The sponsor-program is another way to help build the scholarship fund. You to can help. A $20 contribution will earn a silver level sponsorship; $50 garners a gold level; $100 earns the rank of platinum; and anything above $100 nets the title of Benefactor and comes with VIP passes to the rodeo. For more information about this scholarship sponsor program, contact Landino at (928) 468-6684. Contributions are tax deductible.

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS

DINING AROUND THE WORLD IN LA One of the world’s leading chefs, who owns 25 restaurants in nine countries, recently said, “Food has become such a huge part of people’s lives… and everywhere in the world there is a huge thrill about dining out.” I agree with that statement. When I travel I often think about where to dine. I have, in the past, traveled to cities just for the pleasure of dining in a particular restaurant or restaurants. I’ll bet you think about where you would like to dine or what kind of ethnic food you would like to enjoy when considering where to visit. The more popular ethnic foods include Chinese, Thai and Mexican. I began to think about what major city you might consider if KEN BROOKS the focus of your travel was optimum dining opportunities. I was born and raised in Los Angeles and I know that city well, so I thought we could go there for dining choices covering all kinds of ethnic delights. I realize many of you do not want to even go near L.A. because of the traffic problems. Well, if you obtain a map of Los Angeles, you can first find the location of the restaurant you wish to try and then find the best routes to get there avoiding a lot of freeway driving. That’s what I do. If you wish to drive the freeways, do so after 9:30 a.m. and not after 4:30 p.m. I find most of the freeways move traffic quite well after the heavy drive times. You will find speeds driven on these quick roads to be rather high. Doing 65 is really slow. Much of the traffic moves at 70 MPH and more. If you are rather slow, drive in the far right lanes. Now, what food interests you? Let’s begin with East Indian cuisine. Popular is the East India Grill located at 345 N. La Brea Ave in Los Angeles (323936-8844). Some of the reviewers of this restaurant say you should try homemade Paneer. The Paneer BBQ is the best here. The menu choices are many and the servings are large. If you would like to try Japanese food consider Hide Sushi located at 2040 Sawtelle Blvd. (310-477-7242) or Hakata Ramen Shinsngumi at 1601 Sawtelle Blvd. (424-208-3293). Another choice is Furabio, 2068 Sawtelle Blvd. (310-444-1432). As you can figure, this part of Sawtelle Boulevard is home to the Japanese section of Los Angeles. There is Sushi Park restaurant and it is a giant in traditional Japanese sushi category at 8530 Sunset Blvd. #20 in LA (310652-0523). If you are looking for a special occasion Japanese restaurant consider Urasawa, 218 N. Rodeo Dr., in Beverly Hills. Yes, it’s expensive, but if you are really into sushi, this may be the place (310-247-8939). In downtown Los Angeles you will find Sugarfish 1 at 600 W. 7th St. (213-6273000). This is a wallet-friendly sushi haunt serving top quality fish a la carte and

Metro Creative Services

Visiting Los Angeles, travelers can kind world food adventures all around the city. Want to try sushi? Visit Sushi Park restaurant, 8530 Sunset Blvd. #20 in LA (310-652-0523) or Urasawa, 218 N. Rodeo Dr., in Beverly Hills (310-247-8939), in downtown Los Angeles you will find Sugarfish 1 at 600 W. 7th St. (213-627-3000). This is a wallet-friendly sushi haunt serving top quality fish a la carte and Omakese-style.

Omakese-style. A popular market can be found at 12121 W. Pico Blvd. in the western part of LA. At the Marukai Market you can ﬁnd food, groceries and a mix of other items including Nijyia and sushi items. Chef Nobu Matsuhisa’s ﬁrst restaurant in Los Angeles is the Matsuhisa at 129 B, La Cienega Blvd. in Beverly Hills (310-6599639) Angelenos say this is one of the best on the West Coast. If you are really into Ramen, the best to be had in Los Angeles is said to be at Tsujita LA. The broth and noodles are nearly perfect - the Tsukemen might even be better than the Ramen. It is at 2057 Sawtelle Blvd. (310-231-7373). Korean food is becoming more and more popular with Americans. There is a large selection of Korean restaurants all over greater Los Angeles. There is the Soowon Galbi BBQ Restaurant at 856 S. Vermont Ave., Suite C in Korea Town. There will be several restaurants for you to try in this area. To name others there are Chosun Galbee and Soot Bull Jeep. Mexican restaurants are all over Southern California. You might try La Casita

Mexicana, which serves authentic Mexican food and is located in a nearby suburb of Bell at 4030 Gage Ave. The phone number is (323) 773-1898. It is also inexpensive and some would say it is worth the drive. Another you might try serves Oaxacan bites served in simple Mexican digs located at 3014 W. Olympic Blvd. in LA (213-4270608). French cuisine is a favorite of many. It is often rather expensive, but well worth the cost if the food is really good. Modern French ﬁne dining can be found in downtown LA at 141 S. Grand Ave. It’s the Patina, phone (213) 972-3331. Expect great things. The Melisse Restaurant located at 1104 Wilshire Blvd. in Santa Monica is considered one of the best French eateries (310-395-0881). The Trois Mec is well known in the area as one of the best. Book a table early as the restaurant has only 26 seats. You purchase the meals in advance. Cost is $100 per head. How about trying some Middle East and Mediterranean dishes? I have grown to love most of this style of food and you might ﬁnd it delicious also. In the Western part of LA is the Laziz

Grill. Some say the food here is amazing. If you like Persian food this is the place to go. Everything is very home style. It is located in Westwood at 1922 Westwood Blvd. (310474-2436). I ate here often when I lived in LA. Lebanese food can be found at Sunnin Lebanese Café at 1776 Westwood Blvd. (310-475-3358). The owner is a Lebanese lady who is always there. For more suggestions of Middle Eastern food consider Marouch Restaurant located at 4905 Santa Monica Blvd. (323-662-9325). Try kafta beef kebab here. The Zankou Chicken in the east Hollywood section is located at 5065 W Sunset Blvd. (323-6657842). Specialties here are Lebanese and Armenian cuisine. The Cleo restaurant also serves Middle East food. The portions are rather small, but the food is really good. It is at 1717 Vine St. in Hollywood (323-962-1711). If you plan to do a Hollywood sightseeing tour this may be the place to have a good lunch. In the mood for some good Italian food? Try Dan Tana’s at 9071 Santa Monica Blvd. (310-275-9444). It’s as old school as it gets. Not cheap, but the cuisine is traditional Italian offerings. There is also Angelini Osteria which is a high quality rustic Northern Italian restaurant located at 7213 Beverly Blvd. in Los Angeles (323-2870070). There is also the Bestia restaurant at 2121 E. 7th Plac, in LA (213-514-5724). This is a rustic gem of a hip, seasonal Italian restaurant in the Arts District you should try. You’ll ﬁnd house cured meats, pizzas, and pastas with unexpected and inspired ﬂavors. If you are in the mood for some tasty Thai food try Jitlada Thai Restaurant at 5233 W. Sunset Blvd., LA (323-667-9809). They say this is powerful Thai food! If you like Asian Fusion, and I do, consider Spago, which is under the direction of Chef Wolfgang Puck. Expensive, but good! Located at 176 N. Cannon Dr., in Beverly Hills. (310-385-0880), this is Asian Fusion at its best. Chinese restaurants can be found almost everywhere. You might try Din Tai Fung Dumpling House #1 for a different twist of Chinese. Try made-to-order xiao long boas, but expect a wait. Located in the Arcadia portion of Southern California at 1108 S. Baldwin Ave. (626-574-7068). You can try Vietnamese food at the Spice Table at 114 S. Central Ave. in LA (213-620-1801). Expect a dimly lit rustic den of exposed brick with hanging birdcages. Maybe they should be serving Bird Nest Soup here, but they don’t. Good deli food can be had at Langer’s Delicatessen at 704 South Alvarado St. (213-483-8050). This is LA’s most famous old school deli. Try not to miss it. Order their pastrami sandwich. African food can be tried at Palm Grove Ethiopian Restaurant in the Harvard Heights section of LA, 1905 S. Western Ave. (323-730-0994). Closer to home you can order Lion Meat Burgers at Vinajo Restaurant in Mesa. They mix Lion meat with beef. Hope your tummy does well as it travels around the world!

Clark in several good locations in the Sierra Ancha Mountains.” Did Clark find riches? As was the case with so many miners in the Payson area, he did not.

In the previously mentioned 1935 Arizona Republic article, he makes that very clear. “I know of no one who made any money in the various claims of Green valley district. There are however, several very promising looking properties in that district and the present price of gold should stimulate scientific development of that section, which in 1878 appeared to be a prospector’s paradise and $100 float was as common as beans. “Anyway I enjoyed the hunting though I did not make any money there but became a fixture in Arizona.”– Charles M. Clark, April 10, 1935, Arizona Republic Indeed Clark became a fixture in Arizona. He married Dora Haugh in 1880 in Globe and stayed in Arizona for the rest of his life. He was involved a variety of mining interests and was elected president of the Arizona Pioneer Association in 1923. He wrote many articles about Arizona’s early history and the Arizona Historical Society in Tucson has a collection of his manuscripts. Clark died on September 2, 1937 in Prescott at the age of 82.

AT THE MOVIES

Aronofsky known as a low budget money-spinner FROM PAGE 4

Aronofsky’s candle blazed. In 2000 Aronofsky released a mesmerizing peek into the lives of young heroin addicts with Requiem for a Dream. It is an intense look at a small subject, in this case a young couple who find their ambitions squished by drug addiction. It is horrifying to watch, and I do not use the term lightly. Jared Leto and Jennifer Connelly star. Ellen Burstyn, Marlon Wayans and Mark Margolis also appear. As tough to watch as Requiem for a Dream is, the $4.5 million budget returned a profitable $7.4 million at the box office. The film also garnered the respect of the critics. Burstyn got the nod for best actress, but not the win. Still, a nomination for best actress is not bad for a small film with a very difficult subject. Aronofsky both wrote and directed Requiem. In 2002 he produced and wrote, but did not direct Below, an unsuccessful horror film. Back on track with another unusual attempt, this time a very complex fantasy/science fiction/religious film. It lost money, but became something of a cult hit

and is popular in some circles today. Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz starred with Ellen Burstyn supporting. Aronofsky wrote and directed from his own story. He brought us The Wrestler in 2008 and restored his image as a low budget money-spinner. The Mickey Rourke, Marisa Tomei (Oscar winner herself) and Evan Rachel Wood vehicle cost a pittance of $6 million to make, but brought back $45 million at the

ticket booth. Rourke and Tomei both received Academy Award nominations for their work in The Wrestler. Black Swan (2010) really made the day of everyone involved in the ﬁlm, from the actors to the money bag people in the background. Natalie Portman took the Oscar for best actress, but the ﬁlm also took awards, but no statue, for Best Director (Aronofsky), Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing

and Best Picture. Black Swan is by any measure an astonishing accomplishment. Mila Kunis, Barbara Hershey and Winona Ryder also appear. Black Swan is another darkly ambitious Aronofsky film, but one that hit the nerve of the public. Aronofsky managed to direct this now masterpiece on a slender $13 million budget. It brought in a staggering $330 million at the box office and has found a place among the best films of all time.

Now’s the time to visit a nursery and select plants for a hummingbird garden to attract these marvelous creatures this summer. No place to plant? Get a few feeders to hang where you can see the action in the coming months, just make sure to keep them clean.

Hummingbird HEAVEN Arizona boasts more species of hummingbirds than any other state, since we lie on the route along which many of the feathered tufts travel from the tropics on up into the rest of North America. Research shows that not only do the feathered jewels buzz and whirr with frantically beating wings, they also chirp, peep, squeak and sing whisper soft songs of such delicate complexity that it takes an obsessive researcher, a directional sound mike, and a patient computer to detect its mysterious grammar. Evolutionary biologist Millicent “Penny” Ficken and electrical engineer turned ecologist Kathryn Rusch have plumbed the mysteries of hummingbirds’ songs. The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee researchers conducted their work on field trips to Arizona — where the 17 resident and migratory species draw hummingbird experts like jarred sugar water. Using tape recorders and comput-

ers, Ficken and Rusch discovered that some species of hummingbirds have whisper-soft songs whose complexity rivals the most operatic of songbirds. Computer analysis has so far revealed an unexpected, hidden grammar in the surprising complex trills, chirps, twitters and love songs of three hummingbird species. The findings have researchers excited. Most of the 300+ species of nectarsipping, insect-gobbling hummingbirds live in the tropics. But some avoid the intense competition of the tropics by following the bloom of spring northward. Only a few species live year-round in North America and only 20 occur here at all. The Rufous covers as much as 2,700 miles a year in a journey from Mexico to Alaska. Hummers take up to 600 breaths per minute and their oversized hearts beat up to 1,200 times per minute. CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

ATTRACTING HUMMINGBIRDS One good way to enjoy the company of hummingbirds is to plant a hummingbird garden. In addition to providing them a natural diet, a hummer garden is an excellent way to attract birds. A hummer garden is also a great way to capture the birds on film or video, and makes a much nicer backdrop for photos than the typical plastic feeder. If you plan carefully and select a variety of plants that flower at successively later dates, you will be rewarded with happy hummers throughout the season. Using pesticides around hummingbird plants is a very bad idea. Killing garden pests will also eliminate the small insects hummingbirds rely upon for protein. In addition, hummers might directly ingest pesticides sprayed onto flowers, which could sicken or kill the birds. Visit a local nursery for suggestions specific to our climate and area for suggestions on the best plants to consider in planning a hummingbird garden (a list is also available at hummingbirds.net, where much of the following information is found). In addition to food sources, convenient perching opportunities will make your yard more hospitable to hummingbirds, since they spend around 80 percent of their time sitting on twigs, leaf stems, clotheslines, etc., between feeding forays and sorties against trespassing rivals. Another way to get hummingbirds’ attention is to festoon your feeder with red or orange surveyor’s tape, available in hardware stores. It is thought that hummers are sensitive to ultraviolet light, which these fluorescent

tapes reflect in abundance. Regardless, if you hang a feeder, sooner or later a hummingbird will come to investigate. Choosing a feeder Any feeder can attract hummers, so perhaps the most important design feature to look for is ease of disassembly and cleaning. In this respect the basin-style feeders are better than the inverted-bottle types. Should you buy a feeder with perches? Hummers live at the edges of their energy envelopes and perching saves a lot of calories. Give them a break, and provide a place for them to rest. Filling the feeder The sugar water used to fill hummingbird feeders is only a supplement to the birds’ natural diet. It’s not necessary to buy a commercial “nectar” mix. All they want from us is the quick energy they get from ordinary white cane sugar. Use only white sugar in hummingbird feeders – don’t put honey, Jell-O, brown sugar, fruit, or red food coloring in your feeder. It is not necessary to color the water to attract birds to your feeder. Here’s the recipe for artificial nectar (syrup): Use one part ordinary white cane sugar to four parts water. It’s not necessary to boil the water. Store unused syrup in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. When refilling, clean the feeder and once a month soak it in a 1 to 4 parts solution of bleach and water or fullstrength vinegar.

Sticky sap secured this tiny nest for the twins. The eggs were layed in February and in a few weeks the duo fledged.

Here come the hummingbirds FROM PAGE 6

They’re the only birds that can hover motionless and fly backward thanks to single-jointed wings that rotate to generate lift on both the down and up stroke. Wings beating up to 52 times a second, they reach speeds of 60 miles per hour. They also have unusually large brains for their size, with expanded areas for learning and memory. Their survival depends on frequent drinks of nectar — usually from trumpet-shaped, orange and red flowers. Payson and the surrounding Rim Country are a home base and on the flight path of many of these extraordinary birds. A CLOSE-UP VIEW

A month after their tiny, white eggs appeared in an expertly built nest, a pair of baby hummingbirds has flown the coop without so much as a sendoff. Payson photographer Jack Quinn said he missed their fly off, but then noticed two newcomers at his feeder. Quinn, who has been shooting hummers for years, said he has never caught that first flight. A friend from the Valley initially stumbled on the nest toward the end of February while on a walk in Quinn and wife Betsy’s yard near Green Valley Park. The nest sat squarely on a thin pine branch just four feet off the ground. Every few days, Quinn would go out and photograph the eggs’ progress. Eventually, two baby hummers appeared in the nest, but he couldn’t tell if they were alive or not. One day, he spotted one of them open an eye. The two birds sat tightly in the nest for a few weeks before Quinn noticed one recent Friday morning they were gone. It is not the first hummingbirds Quinn has photographed. Every year, he and his wife put out at least one feeder off their back porch, attracting anywhere from five to six hummers. He usually uses his Canon 5d to shoot them, but decided to use his wife’s Canon rebel with the nesting hummers because it has a smaller flash and “he didn’t want to blind the buggers.” Quinn, a devoted photographer, once bought a refrigerator box from Sears in the 70s, cut a small hole, put a stool inside and sat there so he could shoot hummingbirds without disturbing them. “I was the laughing stock of the neighborhood,” he said. Now, his neighbors don’t think anything when they see him outside at all hours shooting the birds.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You’re doing better on the flexibility issue, but you still need to loosen up a bit to show you can be less judgmental and more understanding about certain sensitive matters. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Your personal aspect continues to dominate this week. But try to make time to deal with important career-linked matters as well. A change of plans might occur by the weekend. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Excuses are not really needed for much of the confusion occurring this week. However, explanations from all parties could help in working things out to everyone’s satisfaction. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) That surprising (but pleasant) recent turn of events continues to develop positive aspects. But be prepared for a bit of a jolt on another issue that needs attention. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Creating a fuss might bring you that attention you want. But are you prepared for all the explaining you’d have to do? Better to use more subtle ways to make your bid. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) With education continuing to be a strong factor this week, this could be the time to start learning some new skills that can later be applied to a bid for a potential career move. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You might do well to reconsider some of your current time priorities before you get so deeply involved in one project that you neglect meeting a deadline on another. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) With an important decision looming, you need to be careful about the information you’re getting. Half-truths are essentially useless. Get the full story before you act. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Find out what everyone’s role is expected to be before accepting that workplace proposal. Getting all the facts now could prevent serious problems later on. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) A flexible position on a workplace matter could be the best course to follow during the next several days. A personal issue also benefits from an open-minded approach. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Involving too many people in your workplace problem can backfire. Remember: Allegiances can shift. Ask trusted colleagues for advice, but don’t ask them to take sides. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Before submitting your suggestions, take more time to sharpen the points you want to make. The clearer the presentation, the more chance it has to get through when submitted. BORN THIS WEEK: Your clear sense of who you are gives you confidence when you need to tackle difficult situations. © 2014 King Features Syndicate, Inc.
