The back-of-the-envelope method of filing a disability-benefits claim with the Department of Veterans Affairs is no more. Any veteran wishing to file claims or appeals now will need to use the correct form. The forms will walk you through describing your symptoms or conditions, which will help get your claim moving in the right direction. The change is to help the VA clear up the backlog by the end of this year. The following situations need the standardized forms: Veteran or survivor application for disability compensation or pension: VA Form 21-526EZ, Application for Disability Compensation and Related Compensation Benefits, for veterans filing for disability benefits, or Wartime veteran filing for pension: VA Form 21-527EZ, Application for Pension, or Survivor filing for dependency and indemnity compensation, pension and accrued benefits: VA Form 21-534EZ, Application for DIC, Death Pension, and/or Accrued Benefits. Veteran wishing to appeal a disability decision: VA Form 21-0958, Notice of Disagreement. (Right now veterans and survivors won’t have to use that form to start appeals for pension or survivor benefit decisions.) There are three ways to start the claims process with an intent to file (giving yourself a year to get it done): Access eBenefits online; complete a VA Form 21-0966, Intent to File a Claim for Compensation and/or Pension, or Survivors Pension and/or DIC; or call the VA at 800-827-1000. The VA recommends that veterans filing claims or appeals work with a Veterans Service Organization representative, who’s skilled with a computer or familiar with the forms. Consider it a way to get your claim right the first time. For Advertising Information Call (623) 594-1630

Early in “The Good Girl” we meet Mia, who’s recently returned home after being kidnapped and held for months in a remote cabin in the frigid Minnesota wilderness. So the reader knows right off the bat that she will be found and rescued safely. The real mystery of this suspenseful thriller is in figuring out what exactly happened in that cabin, and why Mia can’t seem to remember any of it. Constructed with a timejumping plot that glimpses various points before, after and during the abduction, the story is told largely in the alternating voices of three characters: Eve, Mia’s mother, who loves her daughter but has never been able to understand her; Gabe, the detective assigned to the investigation; and Colin, Mia’s abductor, a man long hardened to brutal reality but suddenly learning just what his limits are. True to this narrative design, Mia herself is a bit of a cipher. She’s viewed mostly through the eyes of the three fallible narrators, each of whom also is trying to figure her out themselves. When, late in the story, Mia finally gets her own say, the impact is devastating: Unexpected secrets are revealed and relationships altered forever. There actually are several stories intertwining here, and the themes of guilt, disappointment and resentment thread their way through them all.

HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) An unexpected problem should be handled as quickly as possible so that it doesn’t cause too much of a delay. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The Bovine’s fondness for tidiness pays off when you untangle a situation that seems hopelessly snarled. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Taking a stand against an uncalled-for situation involving a friend isn’t easy, but somehow you’ll rise to the challenge and do it. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) There are still some questions on all sides that need to be dealt with in order to allow hurt feelings to heal. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Consider a new spring makeover that will show you in your best light. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Some stormy, emotional weather can blow up in the workplace when a co-worker has strong words for you. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) It’s a good time to shed any doubts about your abilities. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) This could be a romantic time for you if you can set aside your cynicism. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) This is a good month for the Archer to aim at healing relationships. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Although you like things done your way, this is a good time to listen to ideas from others. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Aspects favor positive action to reclaim your ideas from someone who might want the glory without doing any of the work. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You might feel uneasy about taking that step forward at work or in your private life.

SOLID AS A ROCK
G
By Roberta M. Meehan
ranite – a rock solid substance used since the days of the Roman Empire for its versatility, endurance, and elegance. Granite – a building block of Surprise, Arizona. Granite – the cornerstone of American Granite, a key industry in the northwest part of the Valley of the Sun. American Granite – this is a family business – the type of business from ages gone by that any family
could emphatically say, “This is OUR business.” That is what American Granite and Tintas Granite Flooring & Warehouse companies are all about. They are American companies that started and grew with the city of Surprise, Arizona. The owners proudly proclaim that their business grew up with the relatively new city of Surprise. As Surprise grew from a few people in 1938 to over 125,000 today, it is not surprising that the Tintas family correlates their family business growth with the growth of Surprise itself. Vasile (Bill) Tintas emigrated from Romania 26 years ago. He and his wife, Laura (also from Romania), met in this country and lived in Chicago before moving to Arizona. Bill, Laura, and their two daughters, Christine and Denice, are all a part of Surprise’s granite story. All family members know all aspects of the business. This is their business and theirs is an American success story. And, not only do they work with granite, but also quartz, Silestone, marble, and more.
— PAID ADVERTISEMENT —
After working diligently for various companies for 17 years, Bill decided 11 years ago to start his own company, Tintas Granite & Flooring Warehouse; a company that welcomes the public, contractors, realtors, designers, builders; a company that prides itself in being big enough to handle any customer and any job; a company that stresses quality over quantity but personable enough to consider each customer on a one-on-one basis. In addition to the Tintas family, American Granite and Tintas Granite & Flooring Warehouse employ about 30 full and part time workers. Interestingly, all work is done “in house” because this granite corporation believes in hiring and keeping skilled people as their own workers for every aspect of the business. This is an “all purpose” company, a “one-stop shop” that supplies not only the granite for a project but also produces complementary cabinetry and flooring, including showers, back splashes, and so forth. American Granite, while definitely working with the other parts of the organization, is primarily concerned with the granite itself. Granite, the solid foundation, comes from a variety of countries. American Granite believes the best is from Brazil because the Brazilian granite has the richest colors. Other good granite sources include Italy, India, Africa, Norway, and Ireland (to name a few!). Imported granite is used because of its quality. Native (as in Arizona) granite develops from a poorer soil and thus, while good for building, lacks the elegance, luster, and durability needed for insidethe-home construction.
either to the elegant popular look or to the more rustic leather look. American Granite inspects its purchases before importing them, which adds to the quality of the eventual products. When the granite arrives at American Granite as a slab of stone, it is initially prepared so that the prospective customer can see the marbling and help to determine the best view for the proposed use. The customer is involved in all aspects of the work. All work is custom work. A template is made and that template is used to help the customer see the best cut. After preparation, the granite is prepared to the customer’s specifications (using the “measure nine times, cut once” formula). After the granite is cut and finished (including being polished) to meet the customer’s needs, it is coated with a sealant that is good for up to 20 years (and can be re-applied after that). Considering that some of the granite from ancient Roman times is still in use, one can assume that American Granite products will be functional for a long time to come! Visit American Granite at 13410 W. Foxfire Drive in Surprise, Arizona. We’re open Monday through Friday 8 am – 5 pm & Saturday 9 am – 2 pm. We are open to the public. Some of American Granite’s 3000 plus granite slabs to choose from!
It should be noted that there are over 400 types of granite and that various granites can be polished Family Owned. From left to right. Laura, Bill, Denice, and Christine.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren. Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community.

NTIQUE ANSWERS By Larry Cox©
Q: Although I don’t consider myself a collector, I buy occasional board games and puzzles when I find good ones at flea markets or garage sales. I currently have almost 50, including “Pollyanna,” “Bomb the Navy,” “Car 54,” “Get Smart” and a 1930s edition of “Monopoly.” How can I find out if any of my games are worth keeping? — Kyle, Surprise, Ariz. A: Games create a feeling of nostalgia with many collectors, which has, of course, led to an increase in values. For example, your “Car 54” game,
issued in 1951, currently is worth about $300, up at least tenfold from just a decade ago. There are several factors to consider when purchasing older board games. Bruce Whitehill is one of the foremost authorities in this field of collecting. His book, “Games: American Board Games and Their Makers 1822-1992” is considered one of the better references. Published by Wallace-Homestead, it also has current values. Whitehill buys, sells and appraises games. There is a
charge for appraisals. Contact is Big Game Hunter, 11 South Angell Street, No. 116, Providence, RI 02906; games@ thebiggamehunter.com; and www.thebiggamehunter.com. Q: I have a collection of Jim Beam bottles that my father compiled. He is in a nursing home, and I am liquidating his collection. Can you help me? — Shirley, Cheyenne Wells, Colo. A: One of the better groups for Jim Beam enthusiasts is the International Association of Jim Beam Bottle and Specialties Clubs. Yearly dues are $20, which would put you in contact with collectors throughout the country. Contact information is 2965 Waubesa Ave., Madison,
This “Car 54” board game from 1951 is worth about $300.

BELL TRAVEL INVITES YOU TO JOIN US FOR THESE 2 TRIPS
By Sam Struckhoff© PICKS OF THE MONTH These hits are now available on DVD and Blu-ray. “Cake” (R) — Claire (Jennifer Aniston) has been in constant pain since a car accident more than a year ago, and it’s taken its toll on her love life, her career and her personality. Spiraling into prescription abuse and a general feeling of nothingness, Claire can’t get over the suicide of one of the women in her chronic pain support group (Anna Kendrick). Clearly, this is heavy drama and a bit of a departure for Aniston, who has been stuck in goofball comedy purgatory. Here, Aniston shows she has the chops to carry that dramatic weight. “The Wedding Ringer” (R) — An awkward, sweaty, fidgety guy, Doug (Josh Gad), is about to marry way out of his league, but he’s got no best man, and no groomsmen at all to match his bride’s side. In comes Jimmy (Kevin Hart), who sells best-man services. For the right price, he’ll be your best man, the life of the party, and make you look good. Hart and Gad are both real comedic talents, feeding into characters, each within their comfort zones — but the chemistry isn’t happening. You’ll laugh, certainly, but this isn’t the new must-see wedding-related guy comedy. TV SERIES • “Suits” Fourth Season • “The Mentalist” Seventh Season • “The Musketeers” Second Season

A ROUND ARIZONA
By Heather Wright Schlichting©
Think you know your Cuervo from your Patrón? Take a trip to Mexico by visiting the Tequila Bar inside La Hacienda restaurant at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess Resort in North Scottsdale to sample flights of tequila categories reposado, anejo and blanco, and learn what makes each type distinct. The Tequila Bar offers artisan tastings of more than 200 varieties of tequila from 36 different labels. What makes the experience unique at The Tequila Bar are their tequila gods and goddesses. Each weekend, one of these tequila aficionados will be on hand to serve customers some of the best tequila they’ve ever tasted and teach the process of tequila making, as well as explain the many grades and flavors of tequi-
la that are available. Many of these tequila gods and goddesses have undergone extensive training to better understand the wonders of this unique liquor. Some have trained in Mexico and earned an Award T certification from the Tequila Regulatory Council (a nonprofit organization in Mexico that verifies the performance and the fulfillment of Mexican standards concerning tequila), an accreditation similar to that of a sommelier. The Award T certification enables staff to provide customers and co-workers more information about tequila and the assurance that the restaurant’s selection of tequilas are all certified. For a truly unique tequila taste, try the snake bite, which is garnished with a real (dead) rattlesnake.

Nothing says spring like a beautiful bunch of crisp asparagus. While asparagus is available year-round, it’s much better when purchased locally. Asparagus is easy to select and prepare, and comes in a variety of vibrant colors including green, violet, purple and white. It also grows wild and is commercially available fresh, frozen and canned. The stalks range in size from colossal to small. Various types and colors of asparagus can be used without a noticeable difference in taste, so mix and match colors and sizes for visual interest. It tastes delicious hot or cold. Asparagus should be crisp and firm, not limp or wrinkled, with tightly closed tips. Dull colors and ridges in the stems are an indication of a lack of freshness. The stalks
By Angela Shelf Medearis© should not be limp or dry at the cut and of uniform thickness. Asparagus is a nutritional powerhouse. One-half cup of cooked asparagus contains significant amounts of folic acid, vitamin C, potassium and beta-carotene. This versatile vegetable works well as a room-temperature appetizer, blended into a soup, as a flavorful side dish, the main ingredient in a colorful salad or as part of a main course like my recipe for lemon chicken with asparagus. Lemon Chicken With Asparagus 4 chicken breasts, about 3 pounds, washed and fat trimmed and removed 1-1/2 tablespoons olive oil 4 garlic cloves, chopped 1 red bell pepper, chopped 1/2 pound asparagus,

“If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it.” — Albert Einstein ••• “Only in the darkness can you see the stars.” — Martin Luther King Jr. ••• “In a time of destruction, create something.” — Maxine Hong Kingston ••• “Hope is a good breakfast, but it is a bad supper.” — Francis Bacon ••• “There is nothing like a dream to create the future.” — Victor Hugo ••• “With every mistake, we must surely be learning.” — George Harrison ••• “One lives in the hope of becoming a memory.” — Antonio Porchia ••• “Protest beyond the law is not a departure from democracy; it is absolutely essential to it.” — Howard Zinn ••• “When love is not madness it is not love.” — Pedro Calderón de la Barca ••• “Never close your lips to those whom you have already opened your heart.” — Charles Dickens ••• “Romance is the glamour which turns the dust of everyday life into a golden haze.” — Elinor Glyn ••• “Memories were fine, but you couldn’t touch them, smell them or hold them.

ERE’S A TIP By JoAnn Derson©
If you have trouble drifting off to sleep, try this aromatherapy trick: Spray sheets with a diluted lavender essential oil. Lavender is classic for sleep time. ••• A good non-slip bathmat is essential in the tub to prevent accidents. Grab an extra one to drape over the edge of the tub for help when entering and exiting. ••• If it’s garage sale time, try this trick: Wrap a picture frame tightly with tulle. Then you can hang earrings from the tulle. Maybe someone will think it’s so cute that you might sell the frame, too. ••• Do you love beans but trying to save a little money? Don’t be intimidated by dry beans, just rinse them and chuck them in the slow
cooker. Add water according to package directions and cook on low for up to eight hours. After they cool, you can bag them in freezer-safe zipper-top
bags and freeze them for easy use later. ••• Keep your crisper drawer clean by lining with fresh newspaper. It will absorb smells and liquid, and can be easily replaced. ••• Easily thread a needle with
hairspray. Spritz the end of the thread with a little highhold hairspray and pull taut. It will be much easier to thread. ••• Stubborn stains in the toilet? Try dropping in a few denture tablets before going to bed, then scrub and flush in the morning.

The first Oscar buzz of the year is for Sally Field, whose film “Hello, My Name Is Doris” won the audience award at the SXSW film fest in Austin, Texas. The comedy-drama feaSally Field tures Field as an older woman in her 60s, having a romance with a much younger co-worker, played by “New Girl” star Max Greenfield. It also stars Beth Behrs, Tyne Daly and Peter Gallagher. Formerly “Gidget” (1965-66) and “The Flying Nun” (1967-70), Field won an Emmy in 1977 for “Sybil,” in 2001 for a guest shot on “ER” and in 2007 for “Brothers and Sisters,” and Oscars in 1980 for “Norma
By Tony Rizzo© Rae” and in 1985 for “Places in the Heart.” Leonardo DiCaprio, who was paid $25 million for “The Wolf of Wall Street,” is a member of the $20 million club of actors. Joining him in that price range are Robert Downey Jr., Sandra Bullock, Angelina Jole, Denzel Washington and Matt Damon, followed by the $15 million club featuring Bradley Cooper, Ben Affleck, Channing Tatum, Dwayne Johnson and Melissa McCarthy. Rob Lowe can smile all the way to the bank. Even though his Direct TV commercials were pulled, his comedy pilot “The Grinder” was given the green light by NBC to begin next season. Lowe will play a TV lawyer who returns to his small hometown to take over the family’s law firm and butts heads with his brother (Fred Savage).

Give Your Dog Comfort And Security Any time you and your family are busy, it’s important to remember that pets can get stressed out, especially if they spend a lot more time alone than normal. Fortunately, there is a way to provide a safe place where your dog can have some time on his or her own but still be around the family. A kennel can be a wonderful solution that provides a den-like environment your pet will enjoy, as well as one that keeps him or her safely contained. Kennels provide a sense of security and comfort that is instinctive for dogs. They are den animals, and although confinement may not feel natural to humans, for a dog, it’s innate and can provide welcome solace. The kennel can be placed in the family room so your pet will

still be included in any family gathering, but not underfoot. There are a multitude of kennel options that range from basic plastic and wire versions to gorgeous cherry hardwood kennels that look like a piece of high-end furniture. You should remember, however, that even in the kennel, your pet can still become nervous or overly excited. It can help to provide some new toys that he or she can chew and gnaw to help relieve stress.

Grand Season Business Profile
Count On Can Do Engraving & Specialties to Create Personalized Lasting Memories Whether you need a plaque that includes an engraved description of a particular achievement, information for a sign sandblasted on a specific substrate, or a shirt screenprinted or embroidered with a special message, Can Do Engraving & Specialties is a company you can count on. Family-owned and operated Can Do Engraving & Specialties has been in business for 20 years with several improvements along the way. In 2007, owner Marvella Lang purchased the business from her parents, who had owned the store for 10 years prior. During the time her parents owned Can Do Engraving & Specialties, Marvella managed the store whenever they went out of town. She says this provided her with an idea of what the engraving industry offers and continues to attend training seminars of various kinds to improve her business. “We are still growing and adding more services as new things emerge,” she explains. “We strive to make sure our store is providing our customers with the latest innovations in engraving and our other services.” Marvella’s son, Matthew, has worked at Can Do Engraving & Specialties for more than five years and recently earned his bachelor’s degree in Information Technology and Web Development. “We are so proud of what Matthew has accomplished and are truly grateful for what he has brought to our company,” says Marvella. “He continues to develop creative ways to engrave on many difficult items.” Can Do Engraving & Specialties can perform engraving services on almost any material or surface, notes Marvella. These engraving services include diamond engraving, ro-
32
tary engraving, laser engraving, sand carving, bronze plaques and sublimation (which allows them to engrave with full color on specialized products). Marvella says those methods allow Can Do Engraving & Specialties to engrave on materials such as, but not limited to, metal, plastic, leather, wood, ceramic, stone, marble and glass. For example, they have engraved on an hourglass, various types and styles of urns, a bell for a ship, knives, guns, baseball gloves, chalices and other church items, rings, and watches and other types of jewelry. Their bronze plaques are displayed in many locations throughout the area — under trees, on columbariums, on benches and even at the Wildlife World Zoo — and come with many options and a lifetime guarantee. For customers looking for embroidery and screen-printing services, Can Do Engraving & Specialties can supply the merchandise needed or customers may bring in their own products. They offer several options while only requiring a minimum order of one, says Marvella. Can Do Engraving & Specialties performs printing services, too. Let them print your business cards, banners, envelopes, labels, stationery, invitations, announcements, door hangers, fliers and other documents. Marvella says the company regularly prints banners for church events and newsletters for clubs and associations, and they have also been involved in the printing of a book. But that’s not all. Can Do Engraving & Specialties also provides marketing solutions using promotional products. For instance, if you’re looking to advertise your business or special event, the company

Owner Marvella Lang and her son, Matthew, of Can Do Engraving & Specialties pose for a photo inside the store, located at 15434 N. 99th Ave. in Sun City. offers an array of pens, mugs and other novelty items to help you get the word out. “Can Do Engraving plays a key role in connecting us with marketing tools to enhance our business,” says customer Ashton Vasquez of A to Z Security Services. “Marvella and Matthew’s use of high quality materials and a wide variety of options has provided us with the ability to pick out the right products to suit our business needs.” Can Do Engraving & Specialties has worked with many charities on their projects as well as with several Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office posses. Additionally, many local clubs and churches regularly have the company produce a variety of items, says Marvella. Aside from shipping across the U.S., Can Do Engraving & Specialties has sent several items overseas. The company views this as a privilege and hopes to continue to serve many others in their particular area of need, says Marvella.
Can Do Engraving & Specialties is located in the Greenway Terrace Shopping Center at 15434 N. 99th Ave. in Sun City. If a particular item can’t be found in the showroom, Marvella says the company has access to many sources to acquire what customers are looking to purchase. Can Do Engraving & Specialties hours are 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday, but the staff is usually in the store until at least 4 p.m. Customers who intend to stop by the store after 2 p.m. are encouraged to call 623-9721760 to make sure staff is still onsite. Although the store is not open on the weekends, Marvella says the company tries to accommodate customers’ needs with creative ways for drop-offs and pickups. Customers are also encouraged to visit their website at www.candoengraving.com. Check out their ad for a money-saving coupon on page 33 in this issue of the Grand Season.

Grand Season Business Profile
Sun City Alterations Can Make the Necessary Adjustments to Your Wardrobe Sewing is not a lost art at Sun City Alterations. Whether a customer needs a pair of pants hemmed, a suit jacket sleeve shortened, or some cushions and curtains put together, this company can get the job done. Located next door to Can Do Engraving & Specialties in the Greenway Terrace Shopping Center at 15436 N. 99th Ave. in Sun City, Sun City Alterations has been in business for more than 25 years and owned by the same family for the past 23 years. Current owner Marvella Lang purchased Sun City Alterations from her parents eight years ago. Prior to that, she was the store’s manager for four years. Not including Marvella, Sun City Alterations currently has four employees, and three of them have worked at the store for more than five years. “They have all been sewing for a number of years,” says Marvella. “One had retired and then came back again less than a year later. I consider us a family.” “My staff is very kindhearted and work well together,” she adds. “They also work well one-on-one with each customer and know many of them by name. We’ve had some of the same customers for the 23 years I’ve been around the business.” Sun City Alterations performs many types of alterations jobs. Hemming pants and shortening suit jacket sleeves are just a fraction of the type of work the seamstresses in the store can do. They can also taper in sides, put in zippers where there were none, modify a garment due to a special medical condition, and take in and let out waists for custom-

The company can also make adjustments to items found in the home, such as cushions, curtains, bedspreads, duvet covers, shams and dust ruffles. Marvella says Sun City Alterations draws customers

from across the Valley. “Some of our customers who are winter visitors have said they wait until they get back to the Valley to do their alterations because they know we’ll do a great job for them,” she explains. “Another customer has had several dresses altered for weddings that she’s been in and she’s had us alter several formals for concerts she’s performed in, too. Several dancers have been coming to the store for years, as well.” Sun City Alterations also focuses on providing excellent customer service. “I have a high standard for quality and I believe our customers have grown to expect that, as well,” says Marvella. “I have a very unique situation in that I also own the store next door — Can Do Engraving & Specialties — and the two stores often work well together. We offer embroidery at both loca-
tions, which allows customers to really personalize an item.” Marvella has done many different kinds of occupations but has found that this area of the Valley has been a great location to fulfill many needs of her customers. “We feel honored to be a part of our customers’ lives and hope to continue meeting their needs for many years to come,” she says. Sun City Alterations is open 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday during the winter, and 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8:30 a.m. to noon on Saturday during the summer. The store is closed on Sunday. Customers are always welcome to call them at 623-972-3125. See their ad for a moneysaving coupon on page 33 in this issue of the Grand Season.

Study: Healthy Heart May Help Men Battle Cancer By Matilda Charles© Men, if ever there was a reason to get exercise, lowering your chance of death from cancer is a good one. You’re not invincible, and exercise can help. Here are a few facts from a study published in the Journal of the American Medical
Association Oncology: • Nearly 14,000 men were included in the study, which initially started in 1971 as a way to track cardiorespiratory fitness. Starting in 2009, researchers began looking at the correlation between fitness and lung, colorectal or prostate cancer.
• Men in midlife (age 50) who had a high fitness level seemed to have a lower risk for colorectal (44 percent) and lung cancer (55 percent). For reasons they don’t yet understand, prostate cancer rates weren’t affected. • Further, a high fitness level offers a 32 percent lower risk of death if there ever is a cancer diagnosis. When it came to cardiovascular disease, there was a 68 percent lower risk of death from that.
• Those who eventually did have a cancer diagnosis had a better outcome (10 percent less likely to die of cancer) if they ran an 11.5-minute mile, as opposed to men who ran a half minute slower. Before you dash out to buy new running shoes, see your doctor for an assessment of your health, and ask for an exercise plan. If your environment isn’t safe for outdoor walking, consider a treadmill.

IME CAPSULE The History Channel
On May 10, 1909, “Mother” Maybelle Carter is born near Nickelsville, Va. From the late 1920s all the way through the 1950s, she was a familiar presence on radio and a powerful influence on the course of country music. She helped make the Carters the “First Family of Country Music” and introduced songs like “Wildwood Flower” and
“Can the Circle Be Unbroken.” On May 11, 1985, 50 people die in a fire in the grandstand at a soccer stadium in Bradford, England. The wooden roof, which burned in just four minutes, was scheduled to be replaced by a steel roof later that same week. On May 12, 1957, race-car
driver A.J. Foyt scores his first professional victory, in a U.S. Automobile Club midget car race in Kansas City, Mo. Foyt raced midgets and stock cars before moving up to bigger things in 1958, when he entered his first Indianapolis 500 race. On May 13, 1607, some 100 English colonists arrive in Virginia to found Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in North America. The first colonial council was held by seven settlers whose
names had been chosen and placed in a sealed box by King James I. Crossword Solution
