TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS

TRAVEL TIPS There are always new tips for successful travel. I have put together a few that come from travel professionals and perhaps some may benefit you when planning your next trip. First, several weeks before departure I start a packing list of items I do not wish to forget. I keep the list near my desk so I can return to it easily when I think of another item or two I want to be sure to pack. I also put a tick next to those I need to purchase. So far, I have not yet forgotten anything I wanted or needed on a trip. KEN BROOKS Next, if you are flying to your destination make sure the name on your air ticket is the exact name on your passport and main identification. Make sure you have purchased a “nonstop” flight verses a “direct” flight. Reason is a “direct” flight may have one or two stops before your final destination. A “direct” flight with stops before your destination takes longer than a nonstop and it also could be easier for your checked baggage to be off-loaded at one of those stops before arrival at your destination. And, if you can, choose your seats at the time you make your booking. Norma and I like two aisle seats across from each other allowing for easy entry and exit. Some airlines today charge extra for specific seats. An example is we have to pay an extra $25 each for aisle seats on an American Airlines flight to the east coast. These extra charges really burn me up, but I don’t think they are going away any time soon. If you are going out of the country be sure to check what documents are required for your overseas visit. We like to get some currency of the country we are about to fly to either at our bank in advance or at the airport bank. This allows freedom at your new destination to pay taxis etc. Buy airline tickets midday on Tuesdays or Saturdays. The airlines usually look at how flights are booking at this time and for those that are filling more slowly they may make fares less expensive. You may be able to lock in businessclass bargains from etravelbid.com. With this travel company you may be able to purchase business-class fares with no advance purchase requirement. November may be a good time to do this. You can sign-up for airfare alerts. Airfare Watchdog.com finds unadvertised low fares that other search engines miss and notifies you daily by newsletter or immediately via Twitter. FareCompare.com alerts you when a fare drops by an amount you have specified. If you are visiting a foreign country and want an English speaking guide/driver try booking this service through your travel agent or hotel. When this person arrives at your hotel, nicely interview them to test their English knowledge. Last year we were in Northern Italy and wanted to do a one-day side trip. The driver sent knew

very little English. We kept him, but tailored our drive to areas that needed little English to get around. When checking into a hotel, make your request up-front for a better room, better view or better location. Once you are assigned a room that’s pretty much the end of the situation. If you are not pleased, ask to speak to the general manager. If you are 75 or over you no longer have to remove your shoes at the TSA check point. Be sure to check on the Internet for the latest do’s and don’ts at the TSA stations. If you are the traveler that enjoys staying in bed and breakfast locations get

details on where the toilet and facilities are situated. Is it part of your room or do you need to tippy toe down the hall? Don’t forget to take your medications, eyeglasses and any reading material you think you will want should be noted on your packing list. Be sure to check the climate you plan to visit so you can pack the appropriate clothing. Don’t forget to take rain ware, umbrella and proper shoes. We like to take cruises and often I see passengers unprepared for rain. If you are planning to take an organized tour I suggest booking a tour company that has a good reputation and has been in busi-

ness quite a long time. Your travel agent can advise you here. Find out what classes of hotels are used; how many meals are included in the tour price; how much sightseeing is included; how much legroom is available in the tour busses used. Does your tour escort stay with the tour from beginning to end or is there a new escort at each country visited? You also need some free time in the main cities on your itinerary to do some shopping and to get some rest. Organized tours are perfect for seniors for several reasons. The tour escort and coach driver do the hard work while you enjoy the scenery. If on a tour, how many pieces of luggage can you bring with you? Find out before departure. It will save problems at the check-in point. On tour, what types of clothing should you bring? The tour company will advise you if you give them a call or the tour book should tell you. Find out how many guests are allowed on your particular tour. Anything below 30 people is really OK. It will leave empty seats in your coach so that you can spread out. Planning to cruise? Again, a travel adviser can point you in the right direction as to which cruise line best fits your lifestyle. There are large ships, medium size ships and smaller ships. Usually the smaller ships are the most expensive. The standard cruise lines with mostly large ships are Carnival, Royal Caribbean International, NCL (Norwegian Cruise Lines) and MSC (Mediterranean Shipping Company). The premium lines are Holland America Line, Princess Cruises and Celebrity Cruises. Among the several highgrade cruise lines are Crystal, Silverseas and similar companies. The Cunard Line with its three ships almost stand alone in that they feature first class and standard class. Your travel agent will explain the differences. Cruise ships cover most of the oceans today. Where do you wish to cruise? The most popular destinations are the Caribbean, Mediterranean, North Sea, Alaska, Panama Canal, South America and South Pacific. The longer the cruise the better I say. You won’t be bored and the rest and relaxation will be good for you. Wherever you choose to cruise I usually suggest booking a cabin with a balcony. This allows you outside space to enjoy the weather and sea air with privacy. When booking a cruise, be sure to request first or second sitting for dinner or at the anytime dining room. We chose anytime dining for dinner for our last cruise this year and liked the way it worked for us. It allowed evening freedom. Don’t forget considering river cruising for your next vacation. The Mississippi now has two steamboats covering the various towns and cities on this important river and Europe has several rivers that can be cruised during the warmer months of the year. River cruising has become very popular with travelers in the past few years. Wherever you choose to travel, travel smartly, prepared and in good spirits.

Ground Baby.” This one always tugs at my heart. Transient families often camped at the west end of Main Street where Julia Randall School was later built. We imagine some family coming through here going to somewhere. They camped to rest up, their little baby died, was buried, and the parents moved on. We don’t know the child’s name, just “camp ground baby.” Fred Pranty became famous for his bones when they were discovered stored in a gunnysack in the old Payson jail. He was a prospector who had gone missing long enough to raise curiosity in town. Those who went looking for him found a cabin recently used, but the old man not there. Later they found his decayed remains, a bullet in his skull and identified him by his gold tooth. The bones were gathered in a gunnysack and left at the jail. Later, jail keepers lost contact with who he was and it was years before the bones were identified and laid to rest in the cemetery. Then there is the grave of “Press Nail, died about 1915.” He and his brother Ben Nail were well known for building needed wooden coffins, but legend says Press died in a house fire and his remains were buried in a five-gallon oil can. Webster’s dictionary tells us that a pioneer is “one who goes before into that which is unknown or untried, to prepare the way for others, as an early settler…” What a great thought: to go before, to prepare the way. We would not be here but for them! These pioneers died of old age, in Indian attacks, defending their country, giving birth, struck by dis-

eases. They died from foolish mistakes and noble causes. Nor were pioneers deeply religious people, in the orthodox sense. We are struck by the lack of scripture verses or poetry on the grave markers, except for one scripture reference in the entire cemetery, “The Lord is my shepherd.” One grave gives a benediction, “May the Lord bless and keep you forever.” That phrase is not in the Bible but it gathers up the biblical hope. Pioneers were simply too busy surviving to practice formal religion or learn much scripture. However, if anyone had faith, it

two friends who experience a serendipitous meeting. • “Recipe for Love” by Lisa Marie Lopez is about a costume party that turns into a humorous surprise. • “Spirits In The Graveyard” by Melinda Elmore is about a woman mourning the anniversary of her husband’s death and waits for his appearance at the cemetery. ANOTHER AUTHOR

Payson author Margaret Rutherford has released a new children’s book, “Timothy Helps

Out,” which tells the story of an overly cooperative child taking matters into his own hands. When Mom asks her kids to clean the car, young Timmy takes things into his own hands. If a hose can clean the outside of the car, then, surely it can clean the inside, or so young Timothy thinks. How will his initiative turn out? Rutherford offers this entertaining story of an overly helpful kid that will make the readers smile while teaching kids important family lessons. Published by Tate Publishing and Enterprises, the book is avail-

able through bookstores nationwide, from the publisher at www.tatepublishing.com/bookstore, or by visiting barnesand noble.com or amazon.com. STATE EBOOK WRITING CONTEST

Arizona authors are invited to submit their manuscripts to the 2014 ONEBOOKAZ Goes Digital eBook Writing Competition. Winners will be featured in the statewide reading program ONEBOOKAZ. The three eBook submission categories are: • For Kids: Illustrated picture book or beginning chapter book that would appeal to children

between the ages of 3-12. • For Teens: Literature that would appeal to the age group including 12-18 year olds. • For Adults: Literature that would appeal to a general adult readership of 18 and up. The program is to promote content creators, provide opportunities for self-expression, and promote digital literacy skills.

was these buried in the Pioneer Cemetery. They ventured into the unknown full of dreams and trusting God to keep them alive to see their dreams fulfilled. When they carved their gravestones they used phrases passed on to them by tradition: “Loved and missed by all,” “A friend to all,” “Not lost but gone before,” “Death is but sounder sleep.” The epitaph “At Rest” is often repeated. That was a good idea to weary workers in the wilderness. One cowboy’s grave shows him sitting beside his empty-saddled horse and is inscribed, “Just Restin’.” Another desirable end for pioneers is “Blessed peace.” That was left for future hope among folks who endured economic hardship, hard work, sickness, and fear of Indian raids. One couple had been married 53 years, born within a year of each other and died within a year of each other. Their grave is inscribed, “One day at a time.” Good advice for everyone. Another epitaph simply says, “Come home.” Not “she went home” or “gone home” but “Come Home” as if being called by loved ones waiting for her, anticipating a great reunion in the Father’s house. Of all the places in the Rim Country, the Pioneer Cemetery bestows on us a benediction for our lives in this collage of epitaphs. May these beloved be “forever in our hearts,” may we be “a friend to all” enabled by our faith to take “one day at a time.” “May the Lord bless and keep you forever” giving you “blessed peace” and a glorious reunion when we answer the invitation, “Come home.”

Julliard graduates Shawn Wyckoff, flute; Maria Kaneko Millar, violin; and Nan-Cheng Chen, cello form Sonic Escape.The trio will present a concert at 7 p.m., Friday, Nov. 8 at the Payson High School Auditorium as part of the Tonto Community Concert Association’s 2013-2014 season.

Great music comes to Rim Settle in for some great music in short order. The Tonto Community Concert Association will present two concerts almost back-to-back in the next few days. The first is at 2:30 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 27 with Franc D’Ambrosio, the second is at 7 p.m., Friday, Nov. 8 with Sonic Escape. D’Ambrosio has shared his talents with Rim Country residents in the past. Known for being the longest running “Phantom” in the Phantom of the Opera musical, D’Ambrosio will offer selected works from the musical in his program. He is also bringing his own production to the Payson High School Auditorium this Sunday, “I’ll be Seeing Youz… A Bronx Boy’s Musical Perspective of World War II,” which he conceived and created with Michael Tilley, who will be accompanying D’Ambrosio on the piano. Expect a little more than vocalizing from the tenor; he will be telling stories with characters that are composites of several people. The music slated for the program,

which is subject to change, includes such popular old melodies as “That Old Black Magic,” “Don’t Get Around Much Anymore,” “Oh! How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning,” a Bing Crosby medley and more. Also on the program is the song that first brought D’Ambrosio extensive recognition, “Speak Softly Love” from “The Godfather” – he played Al Pacino’s opera-singing son in “The Godfather III.” He had the honor of singing the Academy Award winning “Speak Softly Love” both in the film and on the original motion picture soundtrack. D’Ambrosio’s performance so impressed the late Luciano Pavarotti that it led to an invitation — quickly accepted — to study with the legendary tenor at his home in Italy. D’Ambrosio’s resume also includes an Academy Award nominated film, an Emmy Award nominated television show, four-time Tony nominated Broadway show, two Grammy Award considerations and a National Theatre Award nomination.

His passion for teaching his craft to young artists leads to Italy each summer where he lectures for the University Of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music in Spoletto, Italy. He also works with the Cherubini Music Conservatory in Florence, Italy and American University in Washington, D.C. He also participates in numerous lecture series for such prestigious institutions as the New Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, the famed Julliard School and the American Academy Of Dramatic Arts in New York City. D’Ambrosio will be offering a special school outreach program while in Payson.

SONIC ESCAPE Julliard graduates Shawn Wyckoff, flute; Maria Kaneko Millar, violin; and Nan-Cheng Chen, cello; form Sonic Escape. The performance history of the trio has demonstrated that their intense clas-

sical training can only be matched by their curiosity, appearing in diverse environments from Carnegie Hall to Beale Street, and improvising with Native American flute masters. Their performance style is highly physical and includes dance, most poignantly reflected in Millar’s own “Tsuru (for Solo Dancing Violinist with Fabric).” Ultimately, the total Sonic Escape experience is what makes lifelong believers out of initiates. Humor and candid conversation draw audiences into the music, while the players’ backgrounds in acting, singing and dancing turn concerts into unforgettable performance events. Improvisation takes it up a notch, infusing shows with pure, dynamic energy. As music and stories intertwine, audiences are taken on a rollercoaster ride of emotions, revelations, and ultimately, the desire to learn more. Interaction and innovation are the hallmarks of Sonic Escape. CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

Franc D’Ambrosio performs at the PHS Auditorium at 2:30 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 27 with music from World War II and more.

Two concerts coming FROM PAGE 6

The program tentatively planned for the evening is “Circle the Sea,” which invites listeners to an exciting and uplifting journey across Europe, Asia, North and South America, all while incorporating an unprecedented range of sounds and techniques on the flute, violin and cello. It even includes “Bach in Ireland” incorporating the works of J.S. Bach with those of Millar in the forms of a gigue, jig, corrente, slip jig, allegro and reel. Both performances are at the Payson High School Auditorium. Single tickets are $35 as available. Children and students under the age of 18 will be admitted free when accompanied by a ticket holding adult. Season tickets for the eight-concert series are $90. For more information, visit the association Web site at www.tccarim.org or call (928) 478-4363 or (928) 474-4189. The spring portion of the 20132013 TCCA season features: Jesse Lynch’s Jazz 101, Jan. 26; An Evening with Hal Linden, Feb. 10; Back on Broadway, a musical review, March 18; John Berry, April 13; and Umi Garrett, May 17.

The mornings are cooler now, so it’s a great time for a cozy gathering over a weekend brunch. But don’t make it stressful, keep it simple and relaxing and as much fun for the hosts as for friends and family. With a little advance planning, the goal of effortless entertaining is within reach. First, make it brunch, typically lighter and simpler to prepare than dinner. Buffet style is another smart choice — just arrange the dishes on pretty linens and invite guests to serve themselves. Half of the work is done when you go with full-flavored imported Italian cheeses like Parmigiano Reggiano, Grana Padano and Montasio, and air-cured hams like Prosciutto di Parma and Prosciutto di San Daniele. As PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) products, they belong to a special group of high-quality European foods that can be made only in specific geographical regions. Four dishes that add up to a no-stress brunch buffet: • A frittata with the deeply savory flavors of Prosciutto di Parma and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. It’s equally delicious warm or at room temperature, whichever is more convenient. • Thumbprint biscuits featuring melted Montasio cheese in the indentations on top a clever touch for biscuits made with readymade dough. • Another brilliant two-ingredient recipe consists of eggs baked in Prosciutto di San Daniele “cups.” They are crisp, creamy and irresistible. • Festive garnishes for a salad of deep green kale leaves, tossed with orange vinaigrette, include Grana Padano shards, pears and pine nuts. For more information on the PDO system and holiday recipes using these legendary cheeses and hams, visit www.legendsfromeurope.com. THINK ABOUT DRINKS

One way to keep it simple is to settle on a house drink for your brunch buffet, such as a Poinsettia Cocktail made with one part cranberry juice and one part Grand Marnier to four parts prosecco. For the nonalcoholic version, combine the juice with sparkling water or lemon-lime soda. EGGS BAKED IN PROSCIUTTO DI SAN DANIELE CUPS

Makes 12 portions 12 slices Prosciutto di San Daniele 12 large eggs Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Fold one slice of Prosciutto di San Daniele in half crosswise to make a rectangle. Fit into a muffin cup. Crack egg into lined cup. Repeat with remaining ham and eggs. Bake 10 to 12 minutes to desired doneness. KALE SALAD WITH GRANA PADANO AND CITRUS DRESSING

Makes 5 cups 1/2 pound kale 1 large Anjou or Bartlett pear, sliced 1/2 cup Grana Padano shards 1/4 cup pine nuts or sliced almonds, toasted 2 tablespoons orange juice 2 tablespoons white wine or balsamic vinegar 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Makes 4 to 6 portions

8 large eggs 1/2 cup whole milk 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 3 ounces thinly sliced Prosciutto di Parma, torn into 1inch pieces 6 scallions, thinly sliced 1/2 cup (2 ounces) coarsely grated Parmigiano Reggiano 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, beat eggs and milk with an electric beater until frothy; add pepper. Stir in the Prosciutto di Parma, scallions and cheese.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You enjoy the attention early in the week, but it might be a good idea to opt for some privacy by week’s end so that you can have more time to consider an upcoming decision. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You unearthed some surprising facts. Now you need to consider how to use them to your advantage. Meanwhile, it might be best to keep what you’ve learned secret for now. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A comment by a colleague piques your curiosity to know more. Best advice: You’ll find people more likely to offer information if you’re discreet when making your inquiries. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your energy levels begin to rise by midweek. This allows you to catch up with your heavy workload and still have plenty of getup-and-go to go out on the town this weekend. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You’re probably roaring your head off about a perceived slight from a longtime critic. Ignore it. That person might just be trying to goad you into doing something you might later regret. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) The early part of the week is open to spontaneity. Then it’s time to settle into your usual routine to get all your tasks done. A personal situation could require more attention from you. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) A meeting of the minds on a workplace project might well develop into something more personal for Librans looking for romance. Aspects are also favorable for platonic relationships. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A more-positive mood might be difficult to assume in light of a recent problem involving the health of someone special. But by week’s end, your emotional barometer should start to rise. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Look for a changed attitude from a former adversary once he or she realizes you have your colleagues’ full support. Now you can refocus your energies on that workplace project. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) This time, a difference of opinion might not be resolved in your favor. But be patient. It ultimately could all work out to your advantage, as new information begins to develop. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) A tug of war develops between the artistic Aquarian’s creative aspect and his or her practical side. Best advice: Prioritize your schedule so you can give appropriate time to both. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You could be entering a career phase awash with job-related demands. But avoid being swamped by the overflow and, instead, keep treading water as you deal with demands one by one. BORN THIS WEEK: You are an exceptionally loyal person, and you’re respected for your ability to keep the secrets entrusted to you. © 2013 King Features Synd., Inc.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Making gout crystal-clear BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: The skin where my big toe joins my foot turned red and felt hot. It was painful. I decided it must be gout. To play it safe, I saw our doctor, who agreed with my diagnosis but insisted on some lab tests and withdrawing fluid from the joint. The tests came back positive for gout. He put me on indomethacin, and the pain stopped almost overnight. I’d like to know more about gout. Will you supply some information? My wife thinks I need a special diet. Do I? — R.B. ANSWER: Gout is an overproduction of uric acid due to the daily breakdown of cells that release DNA and RNA, the molecules of life. DNA and RNA are further degraded into uric acid. As blood levels of it rise, it diffuses into and around joints. Uric acid crystals are shaped like needles. Crystals in and near joints kick off the pain of gout. The skin over the joint turns red and becomes warm. Although the big-toe joint often is the first joint affected, the middle of the foot, the ankle and the knee also can attract uric acid crystals. If nothing is done to lower blood uric acid, a second attack occurs in about 11 months. Treatment aims at quickly remedying the pain and more slowly reducing uric acid. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like your indomethacin (Indocin) are effective at abolishing pain and inflammation. If they don’t get the job done, prednisone (a cortisone drug) nips gout in the bud quickly. When colchicine was readily available in the United States, it was a reliable anti-gout medicine. For the long term, once the acute attack has cooled, then drugs that rid the body of uric acid are begun. Allopurinol (Zyloprim) and probenecid are popular choices. Newer drugs like Uloric and Krystexxa are held in reserve if the standard treatments fail. The gout diet is simple, not like it was in the days before effective medicines came on the scene. Cut back on your intake of red meat, seafood and fish. Poultry is fine. Reduce the consumption of high-fructose corn syrup, a sweetener found in many soft drinks. Go very easy on beer. You are better off eliminating it. Distilled liquor is less likely to induce a gout attack, but it may. Wine in moderation causes little trouble. The booklet on gout explains this illness in greater detail. Readers can order a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue — No. 302W, Box 536475, Orlando, FL 32853-6475. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. DONOHUE: After brushing my teeth this morning, I got a glimpse of my tongue. It’s coated black. It doesn’t hurt. I’m writing you to see what this is. Please help. — A.M. ANSWER: Most likely, it’s black hairy tongue, an elongation of the tiny papillae that stud the tongue’s surface. Sometimes antibiotic use brings the problem on. Most of the time, it’s something that just happens. Brush your tongue three times a day with toothpaste and a soft toothbrush. It should go away. *** Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.
