Welcome to The Rim Review.

This week’s cover story is about how Tonto Basin ranchers Tom and Lori Brown use draft horses and invite agriculturalist from all over to a clinic to learn the benefits of the huge, handsome animals.

It’s all about harnessing real horse power.

An extra feature in this edition of The Rim Review is about two of the area’s writers. The women write in very different genres, but have one important trait in

common, they both want to help people in their own way.

PAL hosts Melanie Capps on February 21 Payson Art League’s February meeting guest speaker is jewelry artist Melanie Capps.

Capps recently moved to the Payson area from northern Idaho to escape the severe winters.

Growing up in a career military family, Capps moved and traveled a lot. To occupy her time, she did arts and crafts. She tried knitting, crocheting, needle point, and more, but grew bored with much of the routine and felt she could not create pieces of which she was proud.

And then 10 years ago she found wiresculpture – it was something new for her mind to explore and caused her creative juices to explode.

She uses 14k gold-filled wire or the Argentium silver wire creating heirloom quality jewelry. Each wire-sculpture piece is one of a kind, often inspired by the gem stone being used and expresses the artist’s soul in creating its design and form.

Capps continues her artistic education by attending master classes. She has also created an online retail venue: Jewelry by Me-lan.

She has exhibited with the Payson Art League at ARToberFEST at the Mazatzal Casino and is a member of Down the Street Art Gallery on Main Street.

Capps will be demonstrating her wire wrapping techniques and will be offering workshops in future as well as showing at the 'Neath the Rim Open Studio Tour in May. The PAL meeting featuring Capps is Tuesday, Feb. 21 at Rim Country Health & Retirement Community, 807 W. Longhorn, Payson. The public is invited.

From 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. there is a Show and Share of members’ artwork and a social reception with light refreshments; the presentation by Capps will be at 6:30 p.m. after a short business meeting.

THE RUM DIARY

Don’t bother with this clunker

BY ANDY MCKINNEY REVIEWER

I am a great fan of Johnny Depp — in the proper vehicle. I am also a fan of Hunter S. Thompson, doctor of Gonzo Journalism, from whose original novel this film is adapted.

This should have been a home run, with Depp returning to familiar if terminally weird territory. Depp played the protagonist in the most famous of Thompson’s works, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and the result of the amazing acting by Depp and the fearsomely twisted tale by Thompson was spectacular.

The fault is not to be put on the actor for this infield fly of a film. The Rum Diary was Thompson’s first novel. There is even a line in the film when the young, would-be novelist explains that he hasn’t yet found his voice; that he doesn’t quite know how to write like himself.

Sadly, that will be the epitaph for the film.

Set in Puerto Rico in 1960 we have the young writer trying to find himself while trying to squeeze out a living in a doomed tropical newspaper. He becomes involved with a brash hustler (very well played by Aaron Eckhart in a role that will do him great credit, even if the movie itself tanks) who is not loath to stoop to any foul connivance to make his deal for a new hotel come to fruition. There is a Nazi sympathizer, a penniless drunk who enthusiastic quaffs rum so powerful that it could be properly considered rocket fuel. Long time character actor Giovanni Ribisi nails this role to an absolute Tee. This is three for three — Depp, Eckhart and

Ribisi — in really good performances.

To make it four for four, let us add Amber Heard as the love interest. At only 23, Ms. Heard has a string of roles on her resume, but this is her first time out as the female lead. She plays the vile hustler’s girlfriend. She is willful, sensual and knows how to make men do whatever comes into her brain to get them to do. She is highly wound, like a clockwork automaton of sex and beauty. The clockwork comes spectacularly apart in a nightclub in St. Thomas one night where the principles go to party. This is one of the best scenes in the film.

Great acting and interesting, not to say weird, characters are the film’s strong points.

The weakest part of the movie is the premise.

We are to become attached to the young writer, to root for him to overcome the real estate hustler, to find his muse and get the girl. The problem is that the young writer is not worth our time.

Writer/director Bruce Robinson must take the heat for the clunker, but the flawed story is all on Hunter S. Thompson.

It is possible to have a horrible person and a destructive alcoholic be a sympathetic character. Jeff Bridges recently show us how in Crazy Heart. The Rum Diary is not remotely in this league. It can muster only a sub-par two and a half saw blades for the two hour, R rated effort.

Somehow they used up $45 million to make this not quite good enough film.

I had hoped for better, and so did Depp, one of the producers.

TRAVEL TALK | KEN BROOKS

Unique vacations Every now and then I come across vacations that are truly unique. They are simply not the standard offerings from tour and cruise lines. I’ll give you the names of the tour operators and cruise lines in this article.

Uncommon Journeys has put together an interesting itinerary which it calls “North by Northwest”. The vacation involves free train travel from any California point to Los Angeles where you begin your trip with lunch on board the famous Queen Mary docked in Long Beach Harbor. Then, board NCL’s Norwegian Pearl and head north out to sea.

The next day is spent cruising the waters of the Pacific. There will be lectures and parties aboard. On the second morning you will sail KEN BROOKS under the Golden Gate Bridge and dock for a full day in San Francisco. Various shore excursions will be offered, or you may simply take a cab to the middle of town and explore. Ride one of the famed cable cars and also visit China Town and perhaps have lunch or go over to the Ferry Building to shop the stores and have lunch there.

Later, walk around Union Square then take a cable car to Fisherman’s Wharf for crab Louie before returning to your ship. Your dock will be close to everything the city has to offer.

Then it is out to sea again to cruise along the California and Oregon coast and then a stop at Astoria, Ore. You steam up the Columbia River where you dock. Here are several interesting places to visit and among them is the Nautical Museum, which you will find most interesting.

Your next port of call will be lovely Victoria, B.C. You can explore the famed Butchart Gardens and have tea at the lovely Empress Hotel located next to the bay with many boats tied up waiting to go fishing. This will be one of your most popular ports of call.

Next, your ship will visit Nanaimo, B.C. where nearby are rainforests and beautiful flowers. The town will be fun to walk through.

Then it’s to Vancouver, B.C. where you will have the opportunity to visit Gastown with all its interesting shops, Stanley Park, China Town and other locations.

Vancouver is one of the most beautiful cities in the West and after your visit here you will understand why I say this. It is surrounded by water and beautiful parks.

Now, travel south to Seattle via Talgo train. It takes just a few hours and the scenery will be some of the best on the trip.

At Seattle you check into your deluxe hotel and then visit Pikes Place Market, historic Pioneer Square and the waterfront area.

You will sleep well this night at the Mayflower Park Hotel.

Next day, board another train for the scenic ride to Portland. Here, you will visit rose gardens and much more. Portland is a very interesting city.

Now, its time to head east on the Columbia River to visit the Gorge, Crown Point Mountain House and Multnomah Falls.

The trip ends here and you can return home by air or train from Portland.

The operator is Uncommon Journeys, phone 1-800-543-2846. There is only one departure for this 14-day trip – April 29, 2012. To learn more visit the Web site.

A RAIL TRIP ACROSS CANADA

Several times since I have been writing this column I have discussed the wonderful train trip across Canada on their streamlined Canadian traveling from Toronto to Vancouver. Again, Uncommon Journeys has put together a wonderful itinerary using this fully re-furbished Budd built train, which has been doing this run for more than 50 years. You can now have large private rooms with your own bath as well as coach accommodations.

Here is the itinerary: fly to Toronto, check into your deluxe hotel and later visit Niagara Falls. There will be Toronto sightseeing, then board the lovely Canadian for your trip across the country. The food will be cooked to order aboard in the diner and there will be lounge cars with bars and plenty of room to meet new travelers enroute. You will visit Jasper National Park for an overnight stay at the Amethyst Lodge and tour Banff via the Columbia Icefields Parkway and even ride on the glacier itself on a special vehicle.

From beautiful Banff you re-board the

HIT THE RIVERS

American Cruise Lines will be operating the classic steamer Queen of the West on the Columbia River out of Portland, Ore. beginning this spring. You will have a cabin on a paddle wheel steam boat operating 7day cruises to visit Astoria, Fort Clastop, Steavensen, The Dalles, Richland, Hells Canyon and much more. Included will be a three-hour tour of Portland, which you will find fascinating. Cruises begin in April.

Phone 1-866-975-9050 for more information.

And, speaking of riverboat cruising, check out Uncommon Journeys American Legends trip operating July 2, 2012 to include a special 4th of July fireworks display in St. Louis as well as city sightseeing, and then board the classic American Queen paddle wheel riverboat to cruise south on the Mississippi River to visit fascinating towns and cities along the river. The boats calliope will play at each stop as you disembark to explore the towns. The 10day trip will end in Louisville, Ky. Phone 1800-543-2846 for more information.

Another riverboat, the Grand American Queen will also ply the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers this year and you can enjoy wonderful vacations on this vessel as well.

It will be the largest of the riverboats cruising American rivers this year. A fall color cruise would also be enjoyable. Phone American Cruise Lines for a brochure, 1866-975-9050.

SEE NEW ZEALAND

Other unique vacations can be found with Lindblad Expeditions/National Geographic tour and cruise operators. All of their offerings are special and carried out in a professional manner. One trip that I particularly like is exploring New Zealand’s North and South Islands. This is one of the few other countries in which I could live.

You will have the opportunity of exploring an active volcano, Maori culture, cruising Milford Sound and everything in-between in this most scenic country. All the towns and cities are fascinating and I guarantee you will enjoy every minute of your trip. New Zealand can’t be beat in my opinion; there are beaches, mountains, and friendly people. What could be nicer? And you will be there in the middle of their summer. Phone 1-800-397-3348 for more information.

MORE UNIQUE CRUISING

Lindblad Expeditions is also offering an 8-night adventure sailing around Greece and Turkey in the famous Sea Cloud sailboat. It once belonged to E. F. Hutton and his wife, Marjorie Merriweather Post. Built in 1931 with 32 cabins and suites, the 360foot boat is completely modern in every respect and extremely comfortable.

You fly to Istanbul, Turkey for a stay at the Four Seasons hotel before taking a complete tour of the city and environs, then board the Sea Cloud to visit Ephesus, Didyium, Bodrum, Santorini, Delos and ending in Piraeus which is the port for Athens. You can purchase an optional Athens tour and if you have never visited here, I urge you to do it. Athens offers so much in history and beauty. I was there late last year again and enjoyed every minute of sightseeing. The tour departs May 27, 2012; phone 1-800-697-3348 for more information.

This same tour operator will also sail you on their National Geographic Explorer for 14 days around the British and Irish Isles, plus a visit to London. The voyage includes: Dartmouth, Isles of Scilly, Cornwall, Aran Islands and Cliffs of Moher, County Donegal, Ireland, Iona and Staffa, inner Herbrides, Scotland, Inverewe, Orkney Islands, Fair Isle and Mousa, the Shetland Islands and ends in Bergen, Norway.

This is certainly a unique vacation and you can phone 1-800-697-3348 for more details, pricing and the departure, which is May 15.

Consult your travel agent for more unique vacations. There are many.

IN THE KITCHEN | FAMILY FEATURES

Hearty, healthy comfort food During the short days and cold nights of winter, many of us crave comfort foods.

Unfortunately, the rich dishes we usually think of tend to be low in nutrition and packed with fat and calories. Well, take heart. It’s possible to enjoy satisfying dishes that are tasty, hearty and nutritious.

Dry peas, lentils and chickpeas (garbanzo beans), all part of the legume family, are one way to make comfort foods more healthful. These ingredients pack a nutritional punch while adding flavor to recipes: just one cup of dry peas, lentils or chickpeas gives you more than half the recommended daily dosage of fiber and up to 18 grams of protein. They also contain little to no fat, making them a healthy meat alternative.

Chef Tracy O’Grady, from Willow Restaurant in Arlington, Va., knows how to make the most of these versatile ingredients.

“You may already love lentil soup,” she says. “But lentils have a wide range of uses, and are a great addition to hearty fare like enchiladas, veggie burgers - even chocolate cake.”

And while chickpeas are best known as the key ingredient in hummus, they also appear in rich-tasting foods like Willow’s Chickpea Fries (see O’Grady’s recipe).

Once flour is nearly cooked, fold in chopped chickpeas, Parmesan cheese and extra virgin olive oil. Stir until well incorporated and hot. This should take about 3 additional minutes.

Place in a plastic wrap lined 10-inch-by-12-inch tray. Cover with plastic wrap and push down so it is even. Chill for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator or until completely chilled.

After well chilled, turn the chickpea mold onto a cutting board. Cut fries 12 times in 1-inch pieces and then cut each strip into 4 pieces, forming 48 pieces.

Heat canola oil in a large stainless steel fry pot to 350 degrees. Dust fries with remaining chickpea flour and fry in 4 batches until hot and golden brown.

Drain in paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve immediately with Orange Preserved Lemon Dipping Sauce.

Just before serving, heat goat cheese slices for 3 to 5 minutes in a 350-degree oven until warm, but not melting apart. Distribute lentils onto six plates, place goat cheese slices on lentils and drizzle with vinaigrette.

TIPS FOR COOKING DRY PEAS, LENTILS AND CHICKPEAS

• Dry peas and lentils don’t require soaking. Soak dried chickpeas in cold water for 12 hours before cooking (or you can buy pre-cooked, canned chickpeas).

• Spread dry peas and lentils in a single layer on a baking sheet. Check for and discard any debris. Rinse under cold water.

• To cook lentils, use 1-1/2 (half) cups of water to 1 cup of lentils. Bring water to boil and add lentils. Boil for 2 or 3 minutes and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until tender.

Green or brown lentils take approximately 30 minutes and red lentils about 8 to 10 minutes.

COVER STORY | MICHELE NELSON

Tom Brossart photos

The corrals are probably a bit bigger than most - after all, those are draft horses (think the Budwieser Clydesdales) on the Tonto Basin H-4 Ranch, owned and operated by Tom and Lori Brown. The couple is known around the Rim Country for hosting 4H Ag Days, but people all over the country (and up in Canada too) know them for the clinics they host on the use of draft horses in ecologically-friendly farming.

Harnessing horse power Tonto Basin ranch owners share love of draft horses If the land under the care of Bill and Lori Brown loses fertility, everything on their ranch in Tonto Basin suffers. So their draft horse clinic aims to resurrect the art of farming with horses, a sustainable method of farming.

The Browns have a history of environmentalism. They were honored in 2008 by the Society for Range Management as a result of their work in redeveloping springs and maintaining 15,000 acres of land. The couple has worked on their family’s H-4 Ranch since the 1960s.

Despite the many years of use, the ranch radiates vitality. Animals have a healthy coat and the land grows lush alfalfa for the stock.

In 2006, they decided to purchase draft horses as a hobby, but now recognize how horses link to sustainable farming.

“Connecting with the land is critical,” said Lori.

Their clinic educates attendees from as far away as British Columbia and CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Bill Brown’s family has ranched in Arizona for generations. Bill, at left, and his wife Lori started using draft horses six years ago. Now he shares his knowledge at a draft horse clinic hosted on his family’s H-4 Ranch in Tonto Basin recently.

Draft horses help soil FROM PAGE 8

South Carolina on all aspects of working with draft horses, from purchasing equipment to correct harnessing and training techniques.

Steve Refield from Phoenix “came up to learn what I could about draft horses.”

The Browns partnered with Daniel Stutzman, an Amish farmer from Indiana.

Stutzman spent his youth breaking and working with horses in the field. Now he travels the states to attend draft horse auctions and find good stock for his 50-acre farm. He also helps other farmers find good horses.

The Browns purchased all of their horses from Stutzman.

“This is Red,” said Stutzman, “If all horses were like him, everyone would use them.”

Long the horse power behind Amish farming, organic farmers prize draft horses for their ability to restore the soil. In his article, “From Tractors to Horses,” Leon Wengurd discussed the benefits of making the change from mechanical to biological energy.

Instead of compacting the soil as tractors do, horses tear up the soil, aerating the land. Farmers use their waste as fertilizer. In lieu of sucking up expensive fossil fuel, horses eat what they help grow. Adding value, colts can be sold, wrote Wengurd.

Kyle Skaggs and Teague Channing came from New Mexico to learn more. The young men each cultivate from five to seven acres of organic vegetables for a living.

“I’ve been doing this for about three years,” said Skaggs. He grew up in town, but spent much of his youth outside.

CONCERT SATURDAY February 18, 2012

Travelers come from all over for draft horse clinic FROM PAGE 9

For him, organic farming is doing something real. Channing introduced Skaggs to Stutzman to help purchase a good pair of older horses. A pair of horses aged around 12 years have the patience to calmly work a field. Younger horses are better used for less technical work such as growing hay or grain crops to train them as they mellow with age, said Stutzman.

Skaggs uses the horses to help condition the soil, till, plant and harvest. Starting in the winter, he plants a cover crop of rye or legumes.

The horses help him till and plant the seeds.

In the spring, he turns the winter plants under the earth, which fixes the nitrogen in the soil.

Before planting his cash crops of beets, carrots, garlic, onions and greens, the horses plow the rows to prepare for planting.

Because of the horses’ training and temperament, Skaggs can even use them to help harvest his root crops.

“Some carrots get split in two, but mostly the horses help save a lot of time,” said Skaggs.

On just five acres of land, Skaggs grows enough crops to provide for stores and restaurants in his town.

“When my carrots come in,” he said, “I can keep three grocery stores full for three months.”

The Browns plan to continue the draft horse clinic next year. For information on events, please see the H-4 Ranch Web site: www.H4Ranch.com.

Great Backyard Bird Count Warmer temperatures and lack of snow in parts of North America are setting the stage for what could be a most intriguing 15th annual Great Backyard Bird Count, coming up Feb. 17-20, 2012.

Bird watchers across the U.S. and Canada are getting ready to tally millions of birds in the annual count coordinated by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Audubon, and Canadian partner Bird Studies Canada.

In past counts, participants were most likely to report American Robins in areas without snow. Will more robins be seen farther north this year? Will some birds, such as Eastern Phoebes, begin their migrations earlier? And where will the “Harry Potter” owl turn up next?

Snowy Owls have dazzled spectators as these Arctic birds have ventured south in unusual numbers this winter – an unpredictable occurrence that experts believe is related more to the availability of food than to weather.

Participants count birds at any location they wish for at least 15 minutes on one or more days of the count and then enter their tallies at www.birdcount.org. Anyone can participate in the free event, and no registration is required.

To learn more about how to join the count, get bird ID tips, downloadable instructions and more visit www.birdcount.org. The count also includes a photo contest and a prize drawing for participants who enter at least one bird checklist online.

Authors share desire to help others BY

TERESA MCQUERREY RIM REVIEW EDITOR

They are both authors – but work in very diverse genres. They are both relatively “new” residents to the Rim Country. One is making a return from a sojourn in Dixie; the other’s husband’s job transfer brought her here. But they share one very important trait – a deep desire to help people.

Melinda Elmore is the author of four mystery novels with a strong Native American influence. She said she has been told they remind readers of the popular works of the late Tony Hillerman.

Buffy Trimbach McCrary’s book, Why Did She Have to Die, tells of her near-death experience and how she and her family dealt (and continue to deal) with the tragic, accidental death of her near 18-month-old daughter.

Elmore wants to help aspiring authors by sharing her experiences as a self-taught writer. She just started a weekly writing workshop, which takes place from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesdays at the crafts building at the Mogollon Health Alliance complex at 308 E. Aero Drive, Payson.

McCrary wants to help by giving others hope – especially those who have had a tragedy in their life similar to that she and her family experienced.

MELINDA ELMORE

Elmore’s books are Native Spirit, Blood on the Feather, Native Dreams and Journey to Christmas Creek. She was most recently published by Dancing With Bear Publishing and previously by Desert Breeze Publishing.

She said she is moving away from the Native American mystery genre and into a ranching and cowboy life mixed genre that includes mystery, romance and slice of life. It will have to be a part-time effort though; she is schedule to soon start work Contributed photo with the Payson Police Department as a dis- Melinda Elmore, mystery writer, is patcher. When she offering a weekly class. was in the area before, she worked as a dispatcher with the Gila County Sheriff’s Office.

Elmore said she loved to read as a child and she

received a lot of encouragement about her writing through assignments in school.

Going to college, she initially studied to become a nurse, but found it was not really what she wanted to do, so became an emergency medical technician instead.

She said she started writing as an adult and made her first submission for publication in 2008.

“I was very determined,” she said. Some publishers didn’t respond at all; a few others sent rejection letters, but about a year after she first started trying to sell her first book, it was accepted. She did it without an agent and has yet to get an agent, but said she would like to have one.

What she hopes to share with participants in her workshop are the things she has learned along the way: writing query letters, book proposals and synopsis; point of view; characterization; and dialog. She wants the workshop to be interactive, so if there are topics participants want to discuss, she is open to making changes.

The workshop is free and every Tuesday, with the next one taking place Feb. 14. Once a month, the program will be on memoir writing, which will be led by Elmore’s friend Peggy Martin.

BUFFY TRIMBACH MCCRARY

Tragedy seems to have stalked her, but Buffy Trimbach McCrary has been able to rise above it and that is the lesson she shares in her book, Teresa McQuerrey photo Why Did She Have To Buffy Trimbach McCrary wrote her Die? – God Sent Me the book to give people hope.

Answers. No matter what, it is possible to move forward in life.

She wrote her book with the hope of enhancing the lives of everyone who reads it.

Self-published through WestBow Press, a Division of Thomas Nelson, the book is available on a print to order basis through the company’s Web site and through Amazon and Barnes and Noble Web sites as well.

She lost the twins she first became pregnant with in 1991; one died in the womb, the other survived only a few hours after he was born. Her beloved brother, Billy was murdered in 1993.

And then in 1998, while pregnant, she was stricken by a brain aneurysm and in a coma for three days.

While in the coma, she tells of seeing heaven in her book and being reunited with her twins and brother.

McCrary said she promised her twins she would not leave them, but her brother insisted she come out of the coma, telling her that her family needed her.

She regained consciousness and eventually recovered, though she still has to take medication because of the aneurysm and the damage it caused.

That was not the last of her heartaches though. She lost her 18-month-old daughter McKay in a terrible accident.

McCrary, her husband Bill and two of their children were in a SUV and backing out the drive. McCrary was driving and ran over her little girl.

She admits she contemplated suicide in the immediate aftermath. She discarded the idea though.

When she was recovering from her coma she had decided to refocus herself on her family and knew she could not leave them to be with her little girl in heaven.

In time, the family was able to move on. In fact, McCrary’s husband talked about writing a book.

“Where we lived in Nevada, neighbors who were moving, would put the good stuff beside their trash on the curb. One day when I was taking my kids to school, I spotted a computer on the sidewalk, I stopped and had my kids get out and grab it for my husband.”

McCrary’s husband thought the computer probably wasn’t any good, but she thought it worked just fine. One night, when she couldn’t sleep, she got up and proved how fine it worked. Over the course of just seven hours, she sat at the computer and wrote her book.

She had not thought of being a writer in the past, had not studied it. But she had worked in libraries and knew the hoops to jump through to get something published.

Still, she found her publisher in a different way.

A friend had loaned her a book that had a similar theme and so she checked on the publisher.

“They asked how much money I hoped to make and I told them, I wasn’t interested in the money, I wanted to help people.”

From the feedback she has received on Facebook, she has accomplished her goal. She would like to let a wider audience know about the book, so has contacted a number of people about it, including Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres.

In the meantime, the book can be purchased on the publisher’s Web site, westbowpress.com and through the Web sites of both Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The soft cover book sells for $11.95 and the e-book sales for $9.95; but it is currently on sale for $3.99 from Amazon and $3.19 from Barnes & Noble.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) The adventurous Aries won’t be disappointed with taking on a new challenge, despite some initial misgivings. Look for this move to open other opportunities down the line.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Let that beautiful Bovine smile not only put you at ease, but also show that you’re ready, willing and more than able to confound the naysayers around you. A new admirer has important news.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be careful how you handle a relationship that you’re hoping to save. You already have the facts on your side. Avoid weakening your position by embellishing it with unnecessary dramatics.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Taking definitive stands isn’t easy for the often-wavering Moon Child. But you not only need to stay with your decision, but also reassure others it was the right thing to do.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) As a proud Lion, you’re right to be upset about those who might be lying about you to others. But the best revenge is proving them wrong by succeeding at what you set out to do.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Caution is still advised before making a financial commitment to a “promising” project. Look for the facts behind the fluff. Devote the weekend to loved ones.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) A Taurus offers comfort and advice as you deal with an upsetting event. Use this as a learning experience that will help you avoid similar problems in the future.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) A romantic situation creates some chaos for single Scorpions.

But it’s well worth the effort to work things out. A trusted friend can offer some helpful advice.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Expect to make new friends as your social circle expands. Also, remember to tell that family member how proud you are of his or her achievements.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) New ventures continue to be favored. And with your self-confidence rising all the time, you’ll want to see how well you can do with a new challenge. So, go to it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) This is a good time for the usually “serious-minded” Aquarian to let loose and enjoy some fun times. Expect to get good news about a workplace issue.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Changed plans might upset some people, but your needs should be respected. Offer explanations when necessary. But don’t let yourself be talked into changing your decisions.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have a gift for bringing people together. You would make a fine judge or counselor. © 2012 King Features Synd., Inc.
