Good go

VETERANS DAY EVENTS

Payson and Rim Country residents will honor veterans with two programs for Veterans Day. The first will be by the Payson Elks Lodge Saturday, Nov. 10. A ceremony will be held at 6 p.m. at the Lodge, 1206 N. Beeline Hwy., with a dinner to follow. The members of the Elks will provide a free meal to veterans featuring pork roast, buttered and parslied noodles, vegetables and a salad. The cost for nonveterans is $8 per plate. A second ceremony will be held at 11 a.m., Monday, Nov. 12 at the Payson High School Auditorium. The event will include the presentation and retirement of the colors by the Payson Military Honor Guard and Civil Air Patrol Cadets and more.

zona Centennial Quilt, the event will have an appraiser for your quilts, vendors, free lectures and demonstrations, plus an array of classes, from simple make-and-takes to some of the latest and greatest techniques being employed by top quilters. Elsewhere, historian Tim Ehrhardt shares documentation about what visiting Tonto Natural Bridge was like in the early days. Ken Brooks takes us to Central America in his Travel Talk column.

TELLABRATION TIME

Once again, fans of old-fashioned story telling will flock to Pine Community Center the Saturday before Thanksgiving for Tellabration. Tellabration is a worldwide benefit evening of storytelling. Its originator, J. G. Pinkerton, envisioned this international event as a means of building community support for storytelling. In 1988, the event was launched by the Connecticut Storytelling Center in six locations across the state. A great success, Tellabration extended to several other states the following year, and then, in 1990, expanded nationwide under the umbrella of the National Storytelling Network. In 1995, for the first time, there was a Tellabration in Japan. By 1997, there were Tellabration events on every continent but Antarctica. The event in Pine includes a meet-andgreet and dinner with the guest storytellers, followed by an evening of lively Arizona tales. The seating for the dinner is limited and costs $25 per person. It starts at 5 p.m., with dinner served at 5:30 p.m. in the community center dining room, featuring a menu of pork tenderloin, German potato salad, Caesar salad, a side vegetable, roll and sorbet. To make a dinner reservation, call (928) 476-6427. The evening of storytelling is at 7 p.m. in the Pine Community Center Cultural Hall and will showcase the talents of Don Doyle, Doug Bland, Victor McCraw, Liz Warren, Dee Strickland, Dustin Loehr and Dorothy Anderson. Admission to the storytelling event alone is $5 per person. Proceeds will benefit the Pine Strawberry School.

VETS RETURNING FROM COMBAT

A chance to visit with returning veterans and those who have supported the Merritt Center’s training for integration and civilian reentry with donations will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Veterans Day, Sunday, Nov. 11 at the Merritt Lodge in Payson. The Merritt Center offers a free four-weekend educational program to returning combat vets. Stop in to hear the stories of these veterans and those who have financially supported the program that allowed them to return “all the way home.” Tour the lodge, enjoy refreshments and listen to musicians. Send an email to RSVP with the number of friends and family attending our open house to betty@merrittcenter.org. For more information or an application, visit www.merrittcenter. org or call (800) 414-9880 or (928) 474-4268.

There are fine hotels and resorts, clean facilities, good food and friendly people. The language is Spanish, but many speak some English. You have the Monteverde Cloud Forest, the calm Pacific Ocean and beaches with fine resorts located near the shore, and on the other side is the Caribbean Coast. Guatemala is coming into its own as a tourist destination. You would be staying first in Guatemala City, which has many day tours available. First take the city tour to explore, then consider other out-of-town tours. This is a good place to simply relax for a week or two with a little shopping thrown in. The Mayan ruin of Tikal is one of the most popular day tours and I suggest you do this. Other Mayan ruins are also available for tourists to visit. Nicaragua is not as popular as some of the neighboring countries, but Americans are beginning to explore here. It claims wonderful, unspoiled beaches waiting for tourists. I have heard it said that in the future these beaches will have fine hotels and resorts and tourists will flock to the beaches. We shall see. Granada is the oldest city in the western hemisphere of the Americas. You may stay here or Managua. A Granada tour will be by horse-drawn carriage, allowing a slow and more detailed look at the surroundings and you can stop and shop as you choose. Another tour is Granada and Isleta, which will be great for more shopping and take the camera for architectural photography. These are perfect examples of early American styles. You can also tour rural Nicaragua and visit the active Santiago crater and

the active volcanic phenomena of the boiling soil of Telica-Rota volcano chain. If you are staying in Managua, you can see how the city is rebuilding from the ruins of the 1972 earthquake and you will find the city growing and alive. Panama is best known for its worldfamous canal. Right now there is construction on a new lock system that will accommodate larger cargo and tanker ships and will be a boon to the merchant shippers. This country and Panama City are growing by leaps and bounds. Panama City is the money center for trade between North and South America and has many large and modern skyscrapers and from a distance can look like Manhattan rising from the ground surrounded by water. This city will surprise you. Many American tourists come to Panama and visit the Pearl Islands or Coronado on the Pacific side and Bocas Del Toro and San Blas and Isla Grande. Relaxing hotels and resorts are here. The climate is topical, warm and relaxing. Rates vary by property. You should be aware that Nicaragua, Panama and Costa Rica are generally safer than Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador and Belize which are known to have roaming street gangs and also have the highest crime rates and the police are often considered unreliable. Also, be aware there are many mosquitoes and if you plan to go camping, bring DEET spray and a bug net to sleep under the stars. Malaria pills are a good idea. Planning is half the fun and you may wish to contact an experienced travel agent for assistance with details.

IN THE KITCHEN | FAMILY FEATURES

‘FreshOver’ Recipe Guide offers delicious, healthier meal options To help families transform ordinary meals into fresher versions that the whole family will feel good about eating, Ziploc Brand has partnered with best-selling author and TV personality Rachael Ray to bring healthier food choices to tables with the Great American FreshOver Project, a fresh food makeover made easy. Ray is an expert at creating quick meals. She aims to motivate families to swap their traditional recipes for versions that contain healthier ingredients and taste just as good. “According to a Ziploc Fresh Eating Survey, 72 percent of Americans feel like a good parent when their family eats fresh food, but only 47 percent eat fresh foods on a daily basis. To make eating fresh easier, Ziploc and I are sharing recipes and tips on how to incorporate fresh ingredients into favorites like pizza and mac ‘n cheese,” said Ray. “Anyone can get started on their FreshOver Projects in their own kitchen.” For more recipes from the Ziploc Brand and Rachael Ray, visit the Ziploc Brand Facebook Page at www.facebook .com/ziploc.

Tip: Make a double batch and freeze for a later date. Source: Ziploc

MAKE PIZZA NIGHT A FIESTA Pizza night is a popular pastime for many families, but if you’re looking to change things up from the typical Italian style, try adding a south of the border spin. Southwestern Mexican Bean Pizza calls for just six ingredients, can be made in 30 minutes, and will satisfy the whole family. To save time, start with a pre-baked crust. Instead of the traditional red sauce base, make a chunky puree using a can of Southwestern Bean Salad and spread it over the crust. A second can of this Tex-Mex seasoned bean, corn and pepper blend comes next, along with bacon, bell pepper and cheese. Bake until bubbly, top with cilantro and serve with sour cream and chopped avocado for a true fiesta. For a side dish or appetizer, Southwestern Bean Salad becomes a taco salad topping or even a hearty salsa when served with tortilla chips or crisp sliced vegetables, such as bell peppers, celery and jicama. Plus, it’s a ready-to-eat side — straight from the can or chilled — that pairs well with grilled meats or sandwiches. For other great recipes made with READ salads, visit www.readsalads.com.

SOUTHWESTERN BEAN MEXICAN PIZZA Preparation time: 15 minutes; baking time: 10 minutes; makes 8 to 10 servings 2, 15-ounce cans READ Southwestern Bean Salad 1 pre-baked pizza crust (10- to 12-inch diameter) 4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled (about 1/4 cup crumbled) 1/2 to 3/4 cup thin bell pepper strips sliced 1/4-inch

Cooking a satisfying supper that won’t break the bank may seem like a stretch — especially considering rising food costs and a struggling economy — but with the right ingredients, affordable family meals are possible. With a little planning, recipes like these delicious Southwestern Stuffed Peppers are as easy to make as they are on the wallet. Pick the Peppers Yellow, orange, red and green bell peppers — use your favorite or try a combination of different colors for a vibrant presentation. Split lengthwise, the pepper halves are perfectly portioned for the simple southwestern stuffing. Prep and Pack Peppers A can of READ Southwestern Bean Salad saves a prep step. Chili powder, lime and garlic, with a hint of heat, season this two-bean, corn and pepper blend. Paired with a ground beef and onion stuffing mixture, it definitely takes traditional stuffed peppers to a new level. A sprinkle of cheese and a dash of crushed tortilla chips add a cheesy-crunchy finish. Heat and eat Just bake until the peppers are tender and serve. For a real fiesta, offer sides of Mexican rice or heated corn tortillas, guacamole, pico de gallo and sour cream. This Tex-Mex version of stuffed peppers is perfect for casual Sunday night dinners.

meadows to a walnut grove where we pitched camp. By the time we had supper it was dark. Wonderful stars, thick, dreamy hum of insects, murmur of swift water, a rosy and golden afterglow on the notch of the mountain range to the west — these were inducements to stay up, but I was so tired I had to go to bed, where my eyelids fell tight, as if pleasantly weighted. “After the long, hard rides and the barren camp-sites what delight to awaken in this beautiful valley with the morning cool and breezy and bright, with smell of new-mown hay from the green and purple alfalfa fields, and the sunlight gilding the jagged crags above! Romer made a bee-line for the peach trees. He beat his daddy only a few yards. The kind rancher had visited us the night before and he had told us to help ourselves to fruit, melons, alfalfa. Needless to state that I made my breakfast on peaches!” Gowan and the Goodfellow family were known for their hospitality. As a clip from the June 19, 1908 Coconino Sun says, “David Goodfellow, the man who made the Natural Bridge famous, is in town from that scenic wonder. His name does not belie him either.” Any visitor in those days would have been greeted warmly. By the 1930s the automobile was much more prevalent and a lodge had been built at the bridge. Here is a clip from a series of motorlogues that appeared in the Arizona Republic 1939. This segment is from an article in the July 16, 1939 newspaper. “Natural bridge is 15 miles from Payson, to the north. En route the vis-

itor crosses the Upper East Verde river, a popular trout fishing stream. The road to the bridge also goes to Pine, but 12 miles north of Payson the visitor leaves the main road at a wellmarked junction and motors three miles west to reach the bridge. “The last mile and a half of the bridge road goes precipitously down the east side of Pine canyon, in the bottom of which is Pine creek. Before venturing into the canyon, the motorist should put his car in low gear, to save wear and tear on the brakes. “Halfway down the hill the visitor is offered an overwhelming view of Tonto Natural Bridge ranch, operated by David and H.W. Goodfellow. Peach, plum, apricot and apple trees loaded with fruit, acres of alfalfa and corn, rows of vines loaded with grapes and berries, flowers growing in profusion — all of this fresh greenness clustered about Goodfellow Lodge and cabins combines to form a picture of beauty and refreshing novelty. This little garden spot in a narrow canyon, rocky and steep, seems almost too real to be true when seen from the canyon wall on the way down. The bridge is not visible, however. The five acres of corn seen to the south are growing on top of the natural bridge.” The next time you visit the bridge, remember the arduous journey that others had to take to this special place, and appreciate how much easier it is to visit such an idyllic spot. As you look out upon what are now parking lots, try to envision all the wonderful things that were once grown on top of the bridge.

Astounding art from bits & pieces of

FABRIC The art created from bits and pieces of fabric found at the 8th Annual Rim Country Quilt Roundup will astound, amaze and delight. Categories include miniatures; group quilts; small, bed, medium and wall quilts, both traditional and innovative; fabric art; pictorial quilts; wearable art; quilts made by those 18 and younger; and quilts only for display. The quilters will offer quilts pieced by hand and pieced by machine and quilts with appliqués, done either by hand or machine.

Susan Vasallo created the back panel by hand using a dry brush paint technique to enhance the quilting. CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

IMMACULATE BLOOD

When it comes to giving blood, those closest to me know that I am the biggest wuss ever! You would never see me standing in a line volunteering to donate at a blood drive. Call me a greedy blood hog, but I’d like to keep my own blood, thank you very much. You see, needles are not my friends, they are my serious enemy. Even when I have to give blood, I warn the phlebotomists, “If this hurts, they will hear me in China, because I have no shame when it comes to pain.” This usually brings a smile to their face and lighthearted laughter as they put on their gloves, loudly snapSIMON LAKE ping the rubber against their wrist, and then begin to gather the vials as the glass clings together. “I am dead serious!” I quietly shout from inside my head, turning to the opposite direction trying hard to focus on the nature calendar on the far wall. “Why does no one believe me when I say this?” I muse and wait for the poke. Lucky for them they trained that yucky needle to behave and be nice to me. So, while I have my love-hate relationship with very thin inanimate objects, my handsome hubby has a different point of view. He is more of an optimist, seeing the good, in all things… even needles. Not only will he donate his blood, he actually thinks it is a good trade-off. Give blood and receive as many free cookies and glasses of orange juice as one can eat and drink. Ummmm, hmmm — I can buy those items at the grocery store and will happily pay for them. Regardless if you like to share your blood with others or keep your own blood for yourself, the fact of the matter is we all need our own blood to live. If not, we would die. After all, who has heard of or ever seen a human without blood flow? So, we all can agree on these two facts: 1) Blood is directly related to life 2) A lack of blood is directly related to death These two points are pretty substantial when it comes to studying the Bible, and even more valuable when one looks at the holy, faithful covenant promise that God had with His creation and His passion for reconciling them back to Him. The word covenant is defined as a formal, solemn and binding agreement between two parties. When Adam and Eve sinned against God (Genesis 3:6), in His complete sovereign grace and mercy, God made a fervent quest to pursue and not only heal but seal this breach of promise that humans broke with Him.

mediately after (Genesis 3:15) God clearly declares His fruition of promise through the One that is to come. God solidifies this with Abram, walking through the torn bloody pieces of animal flesh in a figure eight. But most importantly, God swore and sealed this act by joining with Himself, joining with the Trinity in this covenant promise (Genesis 15). He swore by Himself. Throughout the Old Testament we see God reiterating His promise with His people… through the sacrifice of animals and the shedding of blood. Why is the blood so important? It was necessary in redeeming a fallen world back with God. Blood had to be shed for the remission of sins. “For this is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28. (Also read Mark 1:4, Luke 3:3, Luke 24:47, Acts 2:38, Acts 10:43, Romans 3:25, Luke 1:77.) Once Christ came, instead of an annual event of sacrificing animals, through Christ, this docile Lamb, shed His blood on the cross once and for all. The New Testament ushered in the Messiah the fulfillment of the covenant spoken of in the Old Testament and ending the need of the sacrifice of animals. This all pointed to the coming Messiah, Jesus, the One what each prophet foretold and each of the 66 books of the canon of scripture underscores. So you see… Christ willingly gave his blood, crucified on the cross, a willing sacrifice. His blood is directly related to our eternal life to all those who believe and follow Him. And the lack of receiving His blood is directly related to eternal death. Which one will you choose? So when your turn comes to declare your list of what you are thankful for, this year… as you sit around the Thanksgiving table with family and friends, will you openly recognize the blood of Christ and truly be thankful for all the blood He shed on the cross for you and for me? Join me in thanking the One who made it possible for us to respond to His reconciliation call, trading His shed blood for the eternal life of all mankind. © Copyright 2012 Simone Lake.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Restless Rams and Ewes might want to let others finish a current project while they start something new. But if you do, you could risk losing out on a future opportunity. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Bovine’s creative forces start revving up as you plan for the upcoming holidays. Some practical aspects also emerge, especially where money is involved. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Moments of doubt disrupt your otherwise clear sense of purpose. Don’t ignore them. They could be telling you not to rush into anything until you know more about it. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A planned trip might have to be delayed. Plan to use this new free time to update your skills and your resume so you’ll be ready when a new job opportunity opens. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) A flood of holiday party bids from business contacts allows you to mix work and pleasure. Your knowledge plus your Leonine charm wins you a new slew of admirers. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) An unexpected act by a colleague complicates an agreement, causing delays in implementing it. Check out the motive for this move: It’s not what you might suspect. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You might want to cut ties with an ingrate who seems to have forgotten your past generosity. But there might be a reason for this behavior that you should know about. Ask. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Be careful not to set things in stone. Much could happen over the next several days that will make you rethink some decisions and maybe change them. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Your plans to help provide holiday cheer for the less fortunate inspire others to follow your generous example. Expect welcome news by week’s end. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You’re in your glory as you start planning for the holiday season ahead. But leave time to deal with a problem that needs a quick and fair resolution. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) The upcoming holiday season provides a perfect setting for strengthening relationships with kin and others. A new contact has important information. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Instead of fretting over a cutting remark by a co-worker, chalk it up to an outburst of envy of your well-respected status among both your colleagues and superiors. BORN THIS WEEK: You instinctively know when to be serious and when to be humorous — attributes everyone finds endearing. © 2012 King Features Syndicate, Inc.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

Shocking the heart back to normal BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D. 2012 NORTH AMERICA SYND., INC.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My husband has had many medical problems. Earlier this year, he developed atrial fibrillation. A cardioversion was performed and worked for about five minutes. Then his doctor prescribed amiodarone. Since being on amiodarone, he has felt much worse. Could the medicine be the problem? He only sits around, and doesn’t even feel like going out for lunch. Another cardioversion is possible in a couple of weeks. Is there any danger to this procedure? — M.C. ANSWER: Does his doctor know how he feels? He can prescribe many other options for your husband. Atrial fibrillation is an erratic and fast heartbeat. Cardioversion, an electric shock delivered to the fibrillating heart, has a fairly high success rate of restoring a normal beat. Success depends on how long the fibrillation has been present and how large the person’s heart is. The sooner from the onset of fibrillation, the better are the results for cardioversion. The results for longstanding atrial fibrillation are not as good. Fibrillation can recur after cardioversion. It can recur after taking medicines, too. Danger exists for every single medical procedure. The complications from cardioversion are few and rare. The booklet on heartbeat irregularities explains the common kinds of rhythm disturbances. Readers can order a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue — No. 107W, 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: My 12-year-old son has large breasts, like a woman’s. In other respects he looks like a 16-year-old. He’s tall and wears a size 11 shoe. What has caused his breasts to be like they are? — M.C. ANSWER: Your son is going through puberty. Two-thirds of boys experience breast enlargement during puberty. It’s normal. The enlargement for some boys might not be as great as your son’s, however. It comes from a temporary imbalance of male and female hormones. It’s not a lasting thing, for most. Some see a regression in a matter of months, while others might have to wait for two years. The condition is gynecomastia (GUY-nuh-coe-MASS-teeuh). If this causes your son great embarrassment and makes life miserable for him, speak to the family doctor. Removing the breast tissue ends the problem. Surgery isn’t extensive and doesn’t require a long healing period. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: My future husband wants me to go on birth-control pills. Do the pills make a woman less able to have a family when they’re stopped? We want to have children, but not right away. How long can a woman take the pill? — J.W. ANSWER: In the past 10 years, the birth-control pill has been modified. It contains less estrogen and progestin. There are fewer side effects than there used to be. The pill, in all its variations, does not affect a woman’s fertility when she stops taking it. A nonsmoking woman can take birth-control pills right up to menopause if she wishes. Generally, a smoker is advised to stop the pill after age 35. Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.
