Crazy Mike Buskirk plays slide trombone, tuba, noisemakers and sings too in this set. Suzanne Knighton strums the upright string bass, washboard and sings. Banjo man Dale Knighton also sings. Drummer Gerry Reynolds will play with anybody, but he’s not allowed to sing.

Beach. The city buzzes at night so you will never be bored. Shopping is good in old town. Do so when not many cruise ships are in port. You might stay at the Caribe Hilton because of its location in the city in a beautiful setting. Jamaica has long been a go-to for lively Caribbean culture and adventure activities, and relatively cheap airfare and hotel rates are part of the allure. The many all-inclusive resorts appeal to honeymooners and young families. You can also go hiking on very interesting and lush trails and climb up Dunn’s River Falls. This is a very tropical isle loaded with much beauty. Dominica is a little island that few people have ventured to, and is perfect for the ecotourist on a budget. You can spend a few days exploring the waterfalls and nature trails of Morne Trois Pitons National Park. It has beautiful beaches and ideal swimming conditions. Puerto Plata is in the Dominican Republic along with the more recently developed Punta Cana. Here you will find many condos and up-scale resorts. Rates can be all over the place so start checking early for your vacation. Santo Domingo is also here and the capital city. It is perfect for busy nightlife and interesting restaurants. St. Barts is a member of the French Caribbean family and offers ample scenery to enjoy as you soak up the sun on perfect beaches. It is expensive as it is one of the picks for the money set and Hollywood’s celebrities. It is possible to get a “deal” here but you have to do your shopping. Many people think of Bermuda as in the Caribbean. However, it is in the Atlantic, southeast of New York. It offers good vacation weather in most months of the year except winter. However, the East Coast people do go there during winter because it is much

warmer than New York State. Being two hours flying time from the Big Apple, Bermuda does have wonderful pink resorts, great beaches and a British atmosphere since it belongs to Britain. Golfing is also good here. I personally like Bermuda very much. If you really want to get away from it all, consider Saba in the Caribbean. Here are mountains, beaches, hotels, swimming in clear water and few tourists. It was used as Skull Island in the film King Kong. You are away from almost everything, so don’t expect lively nightlife. You might think you are on another planet at times. The island is actually Dutch. Wild waves are all about. Not for me, but perhaps you might check into it, it may be of interest to you. Away from the Caribbean you might consider the most beautiful islands of French Polynesia: Tahiti, Bora Bora and Moorea. Bora Bora is probably the most photographed because of the massive turquoise lagoon in a cobalt ocean. It remains not over ridden by tourism because of its remoteness and related high costs. The Bora Bora Lagoon Resort is one of the more popular resorts. This is perfect for a stay-put vacation. From the States you can fly from Los Angeles direct to Papette, Tahiti and change planes for the short flight to Bora Bora. It will take about 10 hours to get to your destination. The flight from L.A. to Tahiti is eight hours and the other two hours is changing planes and flying to Bora Bora. Frankly, I think the best bet for seeing the area is to book passage on the deluxe cruise ship Paul Gauguin for a 7-day cruise through French Polynesia. The ship holds only 350 passengers and gives you a chance to sample the leading islands of the area in high style. You must see these islands once in your lifetime. Perhaps the most beautiful set of islands on earth.

When kernels pop, pour in enough popcorn to cover bottom of pan, one kernel deep; cover pan and shake to evenly spread oil. Shake as popcorn continues to pop. When popping begins to slow to a few seconds apart, remove pan from stovetop. The heated oil will still pop remaining kernels. Sprinkle lightly with popcorn salt, if desired, and store in an airtight container. CHEESY POPCORN
Follow instructions for making Plain Popcorn. When you remove popcorn from heat, transfer popcorn to serving bowl. Pour butter over popcorn and toss. Sprinkle yeast and curry powder, if desired, over popcorn and toss to distribute evenly. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container. CARAMEL POPCORN
Line large baking sheet with lightly buttered foil. In medium saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup and water and bring to a boil. Cook syrup over medium heat, without stirring, until amber in color; about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter, salt and vanilla until blended. Stir in popcorn until coated. Spread caramel corn in a single layer onto buttered foil. Allow to cool before breaking into pieces. Store in an airtight container until serving time.
HOLIDAY POPCORN SNOWMAN Yield: 10 balls, 5 snowmen (2 balls each) 1, 1-pound package large marshmallows 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter or margarine 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 10 cups popped popcorn Decorations: sprinkles, licorice, gumdrops, cinnamon candies, cookies, etc. Melt marshmallows and butter in a large saucepan. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Let stand for 5 minutes. Pour over popcorn and stir. Butter hands well and form popcorn into balls. Decorate as desired.
FESTIVE POPCORN TREES Yield: 10 trees 10 cups air-popped popcorn 1, 10-ounce bag miniature marshmallows 2 tablespoons butter 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Decorating sugar (green, blue)* 1 tube of white frosting (with decorating tip) Assorted small colorful candies, such as sprinkles and miniature silver dragées Place popcorn in large bowl.

Festive Popcorn Trees low heat. Stir until marshmallows are melted and mixture is smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract. Pour mixture over popcorn in bowl. Toss well to coat popcorn evenly. Line baking sheet with foil. Spray hands with nonstick cooking spray, then scoop up about 1 cup of popcorn mixture. Shape mixture into a cone shape, keeping the base flat. This forms the tree. Sprinkle tree with decorating sugar; place tree on baking sheet. Make the rest of the trees. Pipe frosting on trees to make a garland, then decorate them with colorful candies. Serving suggestion: Place each tree on a sugar or gingerbread cookie, and decorate your serving tray with shredded coconut to resemble snow. Notes: It’s important that this recipe starts with unflavored white popcorn for best color and flavor. * Make your own colored sugar by adding food coloring to sugar, stirring in a bowl or shaking vigorously in a sealed container. Add more food coloring for more intense tones.
2 teaspoons ground ginger 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black or white pepper Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spread popcorn on baking sheet and spray lightly with cooking spray. Combine remaining ingredients in small bowl, and sprinkle evenly over popcorn.

Genieva and several of her friends from the ranch of Lori Brown in Tonto Basin recently visited Payson Care Center to the delight of the residents.
Make Christmas merry Spread holiday cheer to care center residents, fixed-income elderly and others in need Christmas may still be about presents, but for some of us, there really isn’t anything we need or want. So what’s a gift-giver to do? This year think about using that cash stash to make the holiday merry for the less fortunate or those who may no longer have family or friends near. There are plenty of opportunities organized to help Rim Country youngsters in need, but providing a merry Christmas for the elderly in area care centers requires a little more hands-on effort. “The greatest gift anyone can give our residents is time and warm attention,” said Kay Chasse, who coor-
dinates activities for Powell House. While most residents have family and friends with whom to share part of the holidays, there are those who have no one. The staff of Payson Care Center, Ponderosa ManorVeterans Helping Veterans, Powell House and Rim Country Health do what they can for their residents during the holidays, help from residents, clubs and organizations, school and church groups is always welcome. The Review visited with Chasse and her counterparts to see what kind of help would be most beneficial. Payson Care Center
Carla Molina is the new activities coordinator for Payson Care Center, 107 E. Lone Pine Dr., Payson. She said there are quite a few Native American residents and their families are really too far away to spend much time with them. “We have one woman who used to be weaver and quite a number of residents who are artistic, so any kind of arts and crafts kits would be welcome,” she said. Yarn for those who like to weave and fat quarters and other
material for the several residents who like to quilt and other art supplies would be nice, Molina said. Slippers are a good gift. Some residents are actually homeless now, so would appreciate clothing or even a blanket to call their own, she said. Molina said there are a number of former cowboys who are residents at Payson Care so if someone would like to bring music, they’d appreciate country music and western movies. She added the Native American residents might enjoy their traditional music or contemporary takes on it, such as the recordings of R. Carlos Nakai and similar artists. Molina said any size group of carolers would be appreciated too. “We can schedule them in advance or they can just show up. We have an open door policy and wouldn’t turn anyone away.” Give her a call at (928) 474-6896 to get on the activities schedule. Payson Care is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Residents of the Powell House had a group of young ladies share time and sing songs of the season Friday, Nov. 30.
The best gift of all is simply time and attention FROM PAGE 8
Monday through Saturday for visiting groups and non-family individuals. Molina said the facility is also in need of a Santa for the holiday, so call her if you can help out – they already have a suit, she added. Ponderosa Manor – Veterans Helping Veterans
“We are really a homeless shelter,” said Misti Isley DeCaire, founder and operator of Ponderosa Manor – Veterans Helping Veterans, 212 W. Wade Lane, Payson. There are about 20 residents at Ponderosa Manor right now. So, anything that could be of use to those without their own homes would be of use. She suggested white socks, which everyone can wear; new underwear and slippers for men’s sizes 7 to 13; and new or gently used clothing. “They need to say what size the clothing is on the outside so we can give it to those it will fit,” she said. Toiletry sets would also be appreciated, she said. Carolers can entertain in the dining room and if someone – a family or group – wanted to take on preparing Christmas dinner for the residents and staff that would be especially appreciated. Ponderosa Manor is operated without any federal funding; it has relied strictly on donations. To learn more, call DeCaire at (928) 474-3920. Powell House
Residents at Powell House love bingo – they play it at least three times a week and would play it everyday if there were volunteer callers, according to Kay Chasse, activities coordinator for the facility, which is at 806 W. Longhorn Rd., Payson. So, if you have the voice for it and some free time, give Chasse a call to arrange a
bingo visit this holiday season or any time. Time for the residents is the best gift, she said. If you can, bring a bright, pretty Christmas card and sit and visit with them – ask them to tell you about their favorite Christmas and what made it their favorite, she suggested. Another way just to spend time with residents is to have them play a board game with which they are familiar or card games like Uno, gin rummy or something simple. “If they can’t remember all the rules, you can always guide them through it,” Chasse said. Another activity she suggested was bringing in a small batch of homemade cookies and letting some of the residents help decorate them. Small holiday decorations that they can help arrange would also be nice, Chasse said. She stressed that any gift brought to residents should be brightly and prettily wrapped – the package is sometimes as important as the gift, she said. Some things that would be appreciated: a lightweight shawl or throw; candy and chocolates, including sugar free, to be shared with others; small baskets or boxes of small fruit or the gift boxes with small jars of jams and jellies; stretch exercise bands and light (1-pound), soft wrist band weights; soft cloth (closed) sacks of rice or buckwheat or something similar to toss in the microwave to heat up and put under the covers at the foot of their beds to keep their feet warm at night. Almost all of the ladies at Powell House love costume jewelry, Chasse said. The men would appreciate nice aftershave, thermal undershirts and warm, plain socks. All the residents would enjoy a new set of towels and washcloths; non-greasy hand lotions such as Neutrogena or several made by Avon; or a new calendar with big boxes in which to make notes and pretty pictures, along with easy-grip pens.
“Another thing many would like would be a gift certificate or two with the Senior Center van to go see the Christmas lights,” Chasse said. She added she thinks the cost is just $3. A number of musical programs have been scheduled already, including a concert by Cinnamon Twist (Anne James and Jennifer Baltz) at 12:30 p.m., Friday, Dec. 21. The schedule at Powell House stays pretty full, but there is always a way to fit someone in, Chasse said. She would especially appreciate volunteer visitors arranging something for around 5:30 p.m. “Only a few residents have the energy for something at that time, but it would still be nice if we could offer them something,” she said. If someone is good with a camera, the residents love to have the pictures taken with their friends and family, but the names and when/why the photo was taken needs to be written on the back, she said. Call Chasse at (928) 978-5587 to arrange a visit or program for Powell House residents. If she doesn’t answer, leave a message. Rim Country Health
“Just about all we do around here is eat and have parties,” said Marie Mennen, who has coordinated activities at Rim Country Health for about nine years. The facility is at 807 W. Longhorn Rd., Payson. So, there is a pretty broad range of things individuals and groups can do for residents during the holidays – or any time. A number of caroling programs have been planned, but more would be welcome. Mennen would like to see neighbors sponsor simple arts and crafts projects for residents – bring in the supplies and
give guidance or the facility could help provide the supplies. They’d also appreciate someone bringing in homemade cookies for residents to help decorate, she said. Bring in a Christmas movie for them to watch or if you play a musical instrument, arrange a little concert. Mennen said there is a woman who plays the harp coming in to perform for residents in December. She said hobby demonstrations are also welcome, as are visits from those with exotic or trained animals. Following the rodeo this past August, she invited someone to bring a horse to the facility, then started making some other calls and wound up practically having a parade in the parking lot with horses of all sizes. To arrange a visit with residents at Rim Country Health during the holidays, give Mennen a call at (928) 474-1120. All of the facilities are open to just about anything anyone would like to share for the holidays. The suggestions here are just that, suggestions. If they feel right to you, take them on; if not, offer other ideas of your own. Adopt a Senior Christmas Angel
Another way to help the Rim’s older residents in need is to participate in the Senior Angel program. Stop by any Edward Jones branch office during regular business hours to select a Senior Angel tag now through Friday, Dec. 14. Shop for your selected senior and then drop off the gifts, which Edward Jones staff will deliver to Payson/Pine area seniors in need. Branch locations are: 411 S. Beeline Highway, Ste. B, and 113 W. Main St. in Payson and 4010 N. Highway 87 in Pine.

And much like the thankful humbled response we give to a person who blesses us with a gift. The only response to a holy God for giving us His gift is praise and worship. Much like the Magi had for baby Jesus. So in a society where Christmas has become so commercialism and the plaguing messages of the media are buy, buy, buy, will you trade all that for the One true Gift that keeps on giving into eternity. In order to accept Christ as your Lord and Savior all you have to do is have a conversation with Him – sometimes known as prayer. These guidelines below serve as a help for your walk through the process. 1) Acknowledge your wrong doings according to His word - “Lord, I ADMIT that I am a Sinner and I am sorry that have sinned.”.(Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, 1 John 1:9, Acts 3:19) 2) Repent and turn from these ways “Lord, I BELIEVE that you sent your Son, Jesus, to the world to die and he paid the price for my sins.” (John 3:16, Romans 5:8) 3) Confess to God and turn away - “Lord, I CONFESS my sins to you, please be with me as I struggle to turn away from sin. I pray these things in your Son’s name, Jesus. Amen!” (Romans 10:9-13) If you have accepted Christ (the gift that keeps on giving) then Facebook me, I would love to answer any questions you may have. © Copyright 2012 Simone Lake.

Flame jump into the new year • As the end of the year approaches, you might consider an old British tradition of fortune-telling. Light a candle, place it on the floor and jump over it. If the flame does not go out, you’re likely to enjoy good luck during the coming year. • It was the third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson, who made the following observation: “The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers.” • Those who study such things say that a rainbow can’t be seen at midday; the optical phenomena are visible only in the morning or in the late afternoon. • In 1982, a radio station in Allentown, Pa., thought its rating could use a bit of a boost, so it came up with a contest: Three contestants, selected at random, would live on top of one of the station’s billboards (portable toilets and sleeping
bags were provided). The last one to give up would be awarded a mobile home. The problem was, nobody wanted to give up. The three men who climbed to the top of the sign at the end of September were still there come March 1983. In that month, one of the contestants was arrested for dealing drugs, but the remaining two stayed aloft until May. Once the freezing winter was finally over, the radio station decided to declare both of the men winners. • If you’re like the average American, you use between 75 and 100 gallons of water every day. • The Sahara Desert is nearly as large as the continental United States.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Make a start on that new workplace challenge. But get more information before you find yourself too deeply involved without knowing in which direction you should go. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might find things becoming tedious as your schedule slows down for the holidays. Use this time to get information about a possible post-New Year job change. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) The creative Twin finds outlets for her or his ideas in the early part of the week. The practical Twin takes it a step further and rallies support to turn the ideas into reality. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) It’s time to stop being intimidated by someone’s negative behavior. Start taking positive steps on your own to help strengthen your position down the line. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Look closely at that so-called golden opportunity. Best to be a cautious Cat who approaches things slowly, than one who pounces without knowing where you’ll land. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Your apology can resolve that personal situation before it overshadows the holidays. You’ll feel better, even if you’re only partly to blame for what happened. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Avoid overtaxing yourself, even if your energy levels are high and you feel that you can do it all. Best to pace yourself so you won’t run yourself down before the holidays. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Your sense of humor helps get you through a stressful period. Some of your quick quips can take the edge off any remaining negativity being aimed at you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Your artistic talents not only help you express yourself these days, but they also set up a line of communication between you and someone very special. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) It’s fine to appreciate the importance of “proper form” for doing things. But relax a bit in order to allow newcomers on the project to feel less intimidated by you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Use your boundless reserve of optimism to persuade others to work with you to resolve a difficult workplace problem before it can ruin your holiday fun. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You brim over with self-confidence as you begin to tackle a new challenge. And, before you know it, you’re not alone: Others have taken the plunge with you. BORN THIS WEEK: You have a highly defined sense of commitment to others. You would make a fine social worker. © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.

RIM REVIEW • DECEMBER 5, 2012
TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
Cancer vaccine for young girls BY PAUL G. DONOHUE, M.D. 2012 NORTH AMERICA SYND., INC.
DEAR DR. DONOHUE: Please advise about the Gardasil vaccine. My granddaughter just turned 18 (to date, no sexual activity — really) and begins college next year. Her doctor is pushing the vaccine for her and for her just-turned-14 sister. I value your common-sense approach to medical issues. What do you recommend? — S.B. ANSWER: Without any hesitation, I recommend wholeheartedly the vaccine for protection against the human papillomavirus. It’s the virus that causes cervical cancer. Gardasil protects against the most common strains of cancer-causing papillomavirus, strains 16 and 18. This vaccine is a medical breakthrough. Never has there been a vaccine for protection from any cancer. Your granddaughters are not too young. The recommendation suggests that the vaccine be given when a girl is 11 or 12, but it can still be given up to age 26. For best effectiveness, it should be given before a girl has had any sexual encounters. The human papillomavirus is extremely widespread, and exposure to the virus before the vaccine has been given lessens the vaccine’s ability to protect against the virus and the cancer it causes. A second papillomavirus vaccine is also on the market. It’s called Cervarix. The booklet on cervical cancer and Pap smears discusses these topics in greater detail. It does not discuss the vaccines. Readers can obtain a copy by writing: Dr. Donohue — No. 1102W, 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 three to four weeks for delivery. DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I have a question about diabetes. My husband has it. He saw a doctor on a television program who said that taking 2 teaspoons of red vinegar at lunch and dinner lowers your blood sugar a lot. Do you think this is true? Should sweetener be added, or water? — N.F. ANSWER: I believe you’re referring to the work of Carol Johnston, Ph.D., a professor in the nutrition department of Arizona State University. She showed that taking 2 tablespoons of vinegar before or during a meal lowers the sudden spike in blood sugar that happens with eating. Such spikes are not good if they are very high and occur often. They disturb blood sugar control. This isn’t a cure for diabetes. It might be a help for sugar control. Your husband should not stop using his diabetes medicines or abandon his diabetic diet. I don’t know why the TV doctor insisted on red vinegar. Dr. Johnston didn’t. You can take the vinegar along with olive oil as a salad dressing. You can dilute it in water if you want. You can add an artificial sweetener to it if the sweetener doesn’t say not to. And you can start with the TV doctor’s recommendation of 2 teaspoons instead of 2 tablespoons. See if the 2 teaspoons work. If it doesn’t, increase the dose until you reach the 2 tablespoons. Are you sure your husband tolerates vinegar? I guess there’s only one way to find out. Dr. Donohue regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but he will incorporate them in his column whenever possible.
