beyond BORDERS

with Mark Lloyd

Mark Lloyd gets all the book perks working at Borders. Our perk?

We get the skinny about upcoming books ahead of everyone else.

While Mortals Sleep

by Kurt Vonnegut

What to watch for in May

After the Golden Age

by Carrie Vaughn

I don’t usually read anything published by dead authors. Usually after a famous author dies, some publishing company will dredge up some stories and try to squeeze every last drop of money out of someone.

And if it’s not the publishing company, it’s one of the author’s kids trying to put together notes from an unwritten book to make a quick buck.

Either way, I usually don’t touch them.

But this is Vonnegut. So I had to check it out.

I also never read forwards. Those are the annoying things at the beginning of books that are written by other famous authors that are supposed to add something to the book you’re reading.

However, Dave Eggers wrote the forward to “While Mortals Sleep,” so I read that, too. He pretty much sums it

up in his first sentence when he writes, “I’ve been thinking a lot about what we lost when we lost Kurt Vonnegut, and the main thing that keeps coming to mind is that we lost a moral voice.”

Don’t read the rest of the forward.

But Eggers is right. Vonnegut could pull the whole “moral voice” thing off better than anyone.

Whether he’s talking about the death of the American Dream or the way technology is running our lives, he’s always telling us to be good to each other.

Whether he’s talking about class struggles or the evils of corporations, he’s always telling us to be good to each other.

Because, as Vonnegut put it in “God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater,” “God damnit, you’ve got to be kind.”

So check out some Vonnegut.

The daughter of a couple of superheroes has decided to live a quiet life as an accountant.

That is, until she is asked to bring down a super-villain named the Destructor for tax fraud. This is either going to be really good or really bad.

The Final Testament of the Holy Bible

by James Frey

So James Frey wants to talk about what it would be like if Jesus was in the world today. Maybe he’ll go on “Oprah” again. They could argue about whether this is fiction or nonfiction.

Have a book you want Mark to review?

album REVIEW Lunar Funk Theory - Live From The Moon by Roman Black I cannot recall the last time a local Sioux Falls-area band released a live album. That is, until Lunar Funk Theory released their “Live From The Moon” album at their CD-release party on April 8.

Live music is no stranger to Lunar Funk Theory, considering the band has been playing shows together for the last seven years. Their musical message spans a broad genre landscape. While listening to them, you will feel the blues, you will bob to the funky beats, you will dance to the reggae, and their smooth vibes will wrangle your heartaches away.

But, with any live album, there is always that question of quality. Believe me when I say the 12-track album’s quality is of another planet. It’s a precise and nearly perfect locally-produced effort that will never have to be re-mastered. Obviously the bands in our local scene do a great job at there live shows, but I don’t see too many of them putting themselves out there with a live re-

cording. I know most of them are quite capable, and I would like more of them to step into this live-album pool of pleasure.

As “Live From The Moon” begins, you are entranced by instrumental fusion much like a stockpot of water being brought to a boil. The 10-minute opus that is “Empty Roads” is a wondrous starter to this 120-minute meal. The coincidentally named “Latin Jam” glides like Santana’s “Black Magic Woman” with its fulfilling mesh of vocal banter and instrumental fills. The illustrious “The Real McCoy” is a rotisserie of sounds and beats that just dares you not to dance. The straightforward “Fro Hop” has a backbeat that is reminiscent of Sublime, but is far more in-depth.

Track 9, “Grama’s Jam,” is the ultimate fusion of jazz/reggae/blues, somewhere between Herbie Hancock and Steve Vai with a dash of the Wailers’ rhythm. Then, just when you thought all the surprises were done, you will hear this “ticktock doodoodoo, ticktock doodoodoo” that’s right to put another log on this fiery show as they add in a cover of the Steve Miller classic “Fly Like an Eagle.” It’s just one of those songs that everyone likes, and if you don’t, you need to listen to this version.

Throughout this satisfying release, you will be constantly impressed by the silky, yet gritty vocal chords of Walsh, and the flawless music behind him will bring you to a lunar paradise.

I contacted singer/rhythm-guitarist Lee Walsh to chat.

RB: Can you describe your band in three adjectives?

LW: I would say jam, funk and reggae.

But in reality it’s more like jam, funk, rock, hip-hop, blues, psychedelic, a tiny bit of hardcore, and reggae.

RB: Why the live album?

LW: We did a live album to capture the essence of LFT outside of a studio. We are probably what you would consider a live band. Like the Grateful Dead’s music, if you listen to a studio version of a song, it might be 2-3minutes long, and then you here it live and it’s 10-15 minutes long. That’s pretty much what we do, so we wanted to portray that with this album.

RB: If you could say one thing to all your fans before they listen to this album, what would it be?

LW: Thank you so much for the support. Enjoy!

tech blend: Geeking Out in the Great Outdoors

I know that South Dakota winters can be pretty harsh, and you won’t meet anyone that likes summer more than me. Finally – knock on wood – it’s here for good. That means we can finally get up from our computers, TVs and video games and – gasp – go outside.

I am going to show you how to bring technology out of your basement and into the sunlight.

“What is there to do outside?” some of you are asking. Well, I’ve got a couple suggestions for you. And, as through some super-natural telepathy, I know your next question is “But this is a tech column, why are you talking about the outdoors?” My answer is going to blow your mind: I am going to show you how to bring technology out of your basement and into the sunlight.

The general consensus is that all the geeks, nerds, techies, Trekkies, dorks and computer scientists stay inside and sit at a computer all day. Well, you’re essentially right, except for the techsavvy population that has figured out

16 | May 2011

how to bring their gadgets outside.

When you know how to do so, it turns out to be a lot of fun.

Geocaching is one of the largest and geekiest way to get yourself outside.

The activity’s home base can be found at Geocaching.com. There, geocaching is described as “a high-tech treasurehunting game played throughout the world by adventure-seekers equipped with GPS devices.” Geocaching can be done anywhere and by anyone, because it really is that easy.

If you are unfamiliar with caches, a cache is a type of container that you hide and has a log that you sign in it.

Caches can be anything from a fivegallon bucket to a thumb-sized container some called “blinkies.” If there is an item in the cache and you take it, make sure to leave something of equal or greater value in its place.

There are around 1,350,000 different sets of coordinates to caches around the world currently listed on Geocaching.com. Pick out a cache and type the coordinates into your GPS or GPS-enabled smart phone, and you’re set to find a cache (then referred to as a “geocache”). This sport will take you downtown, out to the lake, up in the hills, and to some of the most beautiful places you’ve ever seen. With over 500 caches in Sioux Falls, it’s definitely something you should check out.

For evenings, one good way to get outside is to use a stargazing app on your smart phone. Google Sky Map for Android and Star Walk for iPhone are both great ways to check out the night sky. These apps use the augmented reality mentality as they take control of your camera and show you what stars, constellations and planets you are looking at. These are definitely fun if you like being outside at night or are just looking for a different way to use your

technology outdoors.

Instead of driving, try walking or riding your bike. When you ask Google Maps for directions, it gives the option of showing the best routes for walking or bicycling, too. These options will highlight all of the available bike paths and best roads that others have said are suited for biking or have sidewalks. If you’re in a new town or planning a new route, make sure you check out these options.

These websites will do anything a runner could ever want.

There are also many different websites, apps and gadgets for runners.

FavoriteRun.com, LogYourRun.com and TweetARun.com seemed to be the popular ones. These websites will do anything a runner could ever want.

They will log your runs, help you pick which route is best, tell you how many calories you burned, what the average elevation of your route was, and will even help you share your exercises with your online friends.

This is just a sampling of what you can do outside with all of your tech gadgets, but it’s definitely a good starting point. Remember to get outside and enjoy it before the snow comes back and we’re stuck inside once again. And get out there and be a geek while you’re doing it!

profiles IN SOUND May 12 | Avian Sunrise The Vault | 7 p.m.

All ages

Image by Amy Lynn Photography

by Joanna Halverson

If you weren’t at Avian Sunrise’s show on Wed., March 30, perhaps you were watching “The Real World: Las Vegas.”

18 | May 2011

Either way, you heard their music.

Avian Sunrise’s “What You Deserve” was featured on the MTV reality show while they were playing at Latitude 44.

Bass player Corey Gross said their songs are licensed to MTV, which means MTV can use any song they want on any show they want.

“But they don’t really tell you if or when they will use a song,” Gross said.

“So we had no idea. I just started getting these text messages, like, Oh my god! Just heard you on ‘The Real World.’”

But the Sioux Falls band has been a little too busy lately for TV. The fivepiece just finished recording their upcoming album, “Silence in the Sound,” in Baltimore, Md. “I was shocked,” lead vocalist and piano player Bryan Wehrkamp said on their “Real World” debut. “It was crazy how perfect the timing was with our album coming out.”

This time around, the band wanted to work with a producer, because their previous work was self-produced. They were interested in working with Paul Leavitt, who has produced for The Dangerous Summer and All Time Low. “One day we just e-mailed him, not really expecting anything,” Wehrkamp said. “But he e-mailed us back right away saying he was into our stuff. It was cool to have someone else’s opinion on the album. He said we were more prepared coming into the studio than a lot of the bands he had worked with.”

Gross said the recording experience was also different because they spent a month recording “Silence in the Sound.”

“Before, we would spend six days total recording, and this time we spent six days on one thing,” Gross said. “We really took our time with it, making sure it was exactly how we wanted it to sound.”

According to Wehrkamp, “Silence in the Sound” is more exaggerated musically. “We made the soft songs softer and the hard songs harder,” Wehrkamp said.

“We wanted to go for diversity, to be dynamic as possible.”

“We knew we wanted a variety of songs because no one wants to listen to monotony for an entire album,” Gross said.

The lyrics of “Silence in the Sound” are more positive than their last EP, which was more melancholy. “These lyrics are more uplifting,” Gross said.

“There’s just an overall hopeful feeling.”

Avian Sunrise has been attracting twenty-somethings with their pianorock and poignant lyrics for two and a half years.

Wehrkamp writes most of the lyrics. “I try to connect an emotion with words, to paint a picture of thoughts or feelings,” Wehrkamp said.

Avian Sunrise said they are grateful for the support from the regional

community. “I feel very lucky with how everything is coming together,” Wehrkamp said. “We are very proud of the album and are excited for people to hear it.”

“Silence in the Sound” will be released May 3.

“We’ve been so busy with recording and getting the album together, it’s nice to take a step back and see everything start to fit together,” Gross said on the title. “It’s like that peace you find in the chaos.”

Check out their CD-release show with Nick Rallis Band May 12 at The Vault for all ages.

May 20 | Culture Cry Wolf The Liebrary | 8 p.m.

Admission $10 | 18+ For several years, Sioux Falls has

been forming a close relationship with Minneapolis through a common artistic thread: music. The two cities have become cousins, sharing mixtapes at family gatherings and visiting each other for concerts and all-night parties. The bonds grow deep between the people involved, and every now and then a new band or artist happens to come into the collective and leave their mark on the other locale.

Enter Culture Cry Wolf, a hip-hopreggae-punk group from Minneapolis, patiently waiting for the initiation into this crazy family. Now they’re ready to show Sioux Falls what they have to bring to the party, and it’s more than a couple six-packs.

CCW is comprised of emcee Adam Botsford (aka Botzy), vocalist/guitarist Mike Daly, trumpet/guitarist Daniel De la Torre, bassist Druby Soho and auxiliary percussionist (and temporary drummer) Jaime Pelaez. The five members each offer a unique style to form a one-of-a-kind sound that meshes the ska punk genre of 311 with

the underground hip-hop genre that Minneapolis seems to breed.

Throw in a few jazz-infused horn sections and reggae-toned drums and you’ve got a rare hybrid, moments away from becoming the next “big thing.”

Currently only one EP, “The Wesley Opus Sessions,” is available of the talented group’s recordings, but rest assured there is a new fulllength in the works. While a majority of the already-released songs leave you craving the first real barbeque of summer, Botzy admits that the push behind this album might not be as sunny.

“I don’t want to say it’s darker, but it’s kind of more badass. The ‘Wesley Opus Sessions’ was very summery and light, and we do have some of that by giving people a happy, fun song. We’ve also got kind of angry and driven songs, that you wouldn’t think are really our style, but they’re really good,” he said. “And then we’ve got songs that are like a pure blend of reggae. It’s just a huge mesh of styles.”

From the relaxed tones of “Lay Me Down” to the anthem-resembling “Tattooed to You,” the songs of CCW will stick in your head for days. With the mixture of Botzy’s seamless rhymes and Daly’s smooth voice, it’s hard to listen to any music by this group without eventually finding yourself dancing. The live show these guys put on is equally as contagious; the boys display their high energy levels with just the right amount of crowd interaction that will leave you a fan after just the first few songs.

The hard work and inspiration put into making CCW what it is to today is not even close to stopping.

With a new album in the works and several shows in the lineup, the band is as motivated as ever to push themselves to their maximum potential.

“Right now, we’re just finishing up the album and getting it done,” said Botzy. “We have a couple shows lined up and a huge fundraiser planned for June 10 that will be big. I’ve done a lot of work with bigger shows, but this is the first time we’ll be releasing a full album, so we’re really just working to push it out as much as possible. Hopefully that’ll open doors and opportunities for our next move.”

You will have a chance to catch CCW live in Sioux Falls when they open for Soulcrate Music at their annual Liebrary show on May 20.

The concert kicks off with Fargo’s Kipp G & Tony the Butcher at 8 p.m., followed by CCW and Minneapolis’ Prof, with local favorites Soulcrate Music closing the show. Tickets will be $10 for the 18+ show.

Plug-In Sioux Falls is sponsoring four events featuring different branches of government,

including Sioux Falls School Board, Sioux Falls City Council, Minnehaha and Lincoln County and Sioux Falls area legislators. Each of these events feature elected officials who will discuss their roles and responsibilities as an elected public servant. They hope to help educate young professionals throughout the community on what each of these bodies of government are responsible for, and what they do, once elected.

During April, Plug-In did sessions on the Sioux Falls School Board featuring Kate Parker and Darin Daby, and the Sioux Falls City Council, featuring Michelle Erpenbach and Vernon Brown.

a taste of SARCASM Shahi Palace

with Dan Doyle

“My favorite time of day is to get up and eat leftovers from dinner, especially spicy food.” – David Byrne

Aside from the obvious choice of pizza, one of the most enjoyable leftover foods in American culture is Asian food – specifically Chinese. I am happy to report, however, that Chinese food is only the tip of the ice-burg, and now Sioux Falls has a new addition to its budding Asian cuisine offerings. Shahi Palace is an Indian 1 grill located at 2527 S. Shirley Ave. For this author, the arrival of Shahi has filled, and exceeded, the void left by the departure of Taste of India.

Much like Taste of India, Shahi is big on flavors and light on esthetics. The restaurant employs a very minimalist approach. The tables are covered in white tablecloths with candles, but the walls are bare, with the exception of one or two pieces of art. It feels a little like being in a warehouse building. 2 Notwithstanding the décor, as a restaurant, Shahi is pretty solid. From a service perspective, I thought the staff was very attentive and pleasant. Food was on time, water was refilled, and communication was solid. As a new restaurant, which specializes in ethnic cuisine, I was a little disappointed in the staff’s knowledge of the food. I would like to be able to ask my waiter or waitress what the difference between two dishes is, or get their thoughts without

simply being told “I haven’t tasted that yet.”3 But service was always with a smile, which is key.

Before I even get into the real details of the food, I want to commend Shahi for realizing their audience. For those who do not know, Indian food is traditionally all - or nearly all - vegetarian. At Shahi, however, nearly all dishes are offered in chicken, lamb and seafood variations as well. Being as this is South Dakota, meat options are a very wise investment. 4 Regarding the specific dishes, Shahi does a fine job of offering what we could call “first timer” dishes up to “APAdvanced Indian Cuisine.” For those who are trying Indian cuisine for the first time, I highly recommend items like Butter Chicken and Chicken Tiki Masala. For those willing to step out on a limb, a spicy item like Lamb Vindalo might be something fun.

In addition to its rice and sauce dishes, one of Shahi’s specialties is its Tandoor menu. A tandoor is a traditional Indian-style clay oven. As the website and menu explain: The inside is lined with smooth clay and the outside is heavily insulated for the purpose of baking breads. The pit itself is used for roasting meat. Tandoor is fired by charcoal, heating its insides to 800 degrees, creating a sealed heat. Breads, seafood and meats cooked in the tandoor retain their natural juices and flavors. All fat and skin is carefully removed from meat and poultry prior to cooking.

Hidden Paradise Summary It creates intense and delicious flavors. All of these dishes come served on a bed of pepper and onions with a lemon wedge. 5 Lastly, what I feel is likely the safest, but arguably most delicious items in all of Indian cuisine, is the bread. Shahi has quite a solid list of bread options, including roti, paratha, bhatura, and my personal favorite, naan. These breads are great for soaking up excess sauce on your dish, but several also can be stuffed with potatoes, cheeses and fruit.

In order to make Indian dining the most accessible to the Sioux Falls public, Shahi also offers a lunch buffet. Thus, they are able to line up a wide assortment of several “favorite” dishes 6 in order to give diners a wide breadth of experiences. Give it a shot – it won’t get much easier than this.

Final Grade FOOD 3.5/5 – There is nothing mind-blowing here, but it gets the job done. This town needed an Indian option.

The bread is good. Most of the dishes are pretty straightforward.

ATMOSPHERE 1/5 – BORING. When I think of India, the first thing I think of is the vibrant colors, the magnificent art/architecture and the vast landscape. This could be a government lobby.

2) Except you are actually in a “character-filled,” standard South Dakota strip-mall.

3) I get it. There are a lot of items to try. This is a new place, but really the menu can be divided into by a quarter. The recipes are the same, and are offered in four versions: chicken, lamb, seafood and vegetarian.

4) Why do I have the feeling that somebody named Cletus is going to read this and say, “Huh? Why don’t them foreigners get their heads right and serve beef!?!

This is Amer’ca!” Note to Cletus; this place isn’t for you…

5) It kind of makes you think of fajitas at a Mexican restaurant, but with very

6) This also implies that these dishes are “safe,” meaning they appeal to the largest audience and won’t be overly spicy.

delish DELIGHTS

by Denise DePaolo

Now that spring is here and we’re spending more time outside, delicious and fast recipes make it possible to get out of the kitchen and keep up with important croquet games and disc-golf tournaments. This month we’re keeping it simple, and just because it’s early in the season doesn’t mean we can’t make food that reeks of summertime freshness.

Salads are the perfect answer to a warm-weather schedule, and this one allows the ingredients to pop without weighing us down. Paired with a frosty beer cocktail, it’s a bright-eyed look ahead to fresh-cut grass and lazy days by the lake.

Very Berry Salad • 1 chicken breast, pounded and breaded. (I buy the ones that they sell 2/$4 in Hy-Vee’s meat department) • Your favorite lettuce (I like a mix of baby spinach and baby arugula) • 10 raspberries • 3 medium strawberries, sliced lengthwise • ¼ cup shredded carrots • 3 T sliced almonds • 3 T crumbled feta • Honey Dijon dressing (Marzetti’s is a good choice) Directions: Use a George Foreman Grill (or a real grill) to cook up your chicken until the middle is white and the outside is crispy. Cut and chill before serving. Add lettuce, berries, carrots, almonds, feta and the chilled chicken. Top with dressing and toss until lettuce is lightly coated.

28 | May 2011

Fram-beer • Boddingtons Pub Ale • Framboise raspberry liqueur • Fresh raspberries Directions: Place raspberries on a wax-paper covered cookie sheet, freeze.

Pour Boddingtons into a pint glass, leaving about two inches at the top. Once the Boddingtons foams down a bit, pour in about a shot glass of Framboise (two if you want). Add four or five frozen raspberries.

get involved: Purses With a Purpose

30 | May 2011

Are you already out of your stash of Girl Scout Thin Mints? Before you get depressed, take a deep breath, wipe the chocolate off your face and know that cookies aren’t the only way you can support Girl Scouts – Dakota Horizons while eating delicious food. Not only will you get appetizers, but you can also shop for “green” purses, bid on a variety of packages for trips, outings, dinners, and much more, all while wine tasting and hanging out with friends. This is all happening at the fourth-annual Purses With a Purpose at the Hilton Garden Inn on May 12.

You might be wondering what a purse has to do with Girl Scouts. Chief development officer of Girl Scouts – Dakota Horizons Kathie Brown said the focus of the event explains it all: “You might see a purse, but a girl sees her future.”

And their future is impacted by events like this. Out of all the dollars raised by Purses With a Purpose, 100 percent goes towards local Girl Scouts and their programs. Their programs are designed to give girls the skills they need to avoid unhealthy behaviors and make responsible decisions in their lives, learning things like entrepreneurship and philanthropy.

This obviously has had an effect, as the Girl Scouts – Dakota Horizons website reports that 64 percent of today’s women leaders in the United States were once Girl Scouts.

Three Girl Scouts who have shown their commitment earning the Bronze, Silver or Gold Awards will have their projects presented on bulletins at the event, along with having several speakers. For those who are unfamiliar, the Gold Award is the highest honor a

Girl Scout can receive.

“People don’t realize the Gold Award and what it is and what it means for a girl,” Brown said. “In fact, if a Girl Scout earns the Gold Award, when she goes into the military, she’s automatically promoted.”

And how they earn that prestigious award is by selecting an issue affecting their community, researching it and inviting others to take action with them. One Girl Scout who exemplified this was Annika Vernon, who has spoken at past events about her project, Pallets-a-Plenty. This project has volunteers crochet sleeping pallets out of plastic bags, promoting and aiding homelessness, while also keeping litter out of landfills (each pallet takes around 250-300 bags).

“It passes the goosebump test when you see what these girls are doing out there,” Brown said. “They are really caring for the community, they are learning and they are being leaders at such an early age. It’s awe-inspiring.”

Vernon’s hard work also exemplifies a passion of the Girl Scouts – Dakota Horizons: the Girls Scouts Forever Green Project. This will be shown at Purses With a Purpose with a Go Green section, where attendees can purchase gently used purses ranging from $1-$20. But to get those, plan to attend on time. Brown warned, “They go fast.”

The event that hosted 250 people last year also has a silent auction of 60 packages that range for every budget. The auction has a purse that goes with the package the attendee can bid on. Most go from $30-$50, others $60$80, etc. The largest bid last year was for a Deadwood cabin stay for $680. Attendee Jody Heberlee had so

much fun at the “laid back” atmosphere last year that she wants to make it an annual event with her close circle of friends.

“There is something for everyone at this auction… It’s not a high-pressure auction where you feel like you have to purchase something,” Heberlee said.

Brown said the autonomy of signing your name for what you wish to bid on alleviates intimidation and lets you freely bid for what you are interested in for gifts or to bid for a little something for yourself.

But no matter what you’re bidding on, the meaning behind it is so much more. Heberlee’s daughter sees the benefits first hand, as she is a Girl Scout. “It means that our girls get a chance to experience many different activities,” Heberlee said. “Girl Scouts is very important to my daughter and to me. Girl Scouts helps young girls to grow in their talents, their academics and their confidence.”

Tickets are available online by clicking on the pink purse at www.gsdakotahorizons.com, at Bella Boutique, at the Girls Scouts – Dakota Horizons office, or at the door of the event.

If you were once a Girl Scout, your involvement does not have to stop at your last badge.

According to Brown, “The event is designed to build our alumni and our lifetime memberships, and to really engage women in the community to become involved. Whether it be a mentor or maybe they want to volunteer; but just really expose them to what Girl Scouts is all about and that it’s the premier leadership organization for girls.”

Luke Schuetzle

&

Andrew Kightlinger:

Captured by Film.

Images by Jeff Sampson Photography

When you talk to most people in their mid-twenties, it’s pretty unlikely they have ever had a world premiere of one of their films or made the first round of the Student Academy Awards.

Andrew Kightlinger and Luke Schuetzle accomplished both in the same week.

On April 15, the Reel Dakota Film Society hosted the first screening of Kightlinger’s award-winning short film he wrote and directed, “You Don’t Know Bertha Constantine,” at the Belbas Theater at the Washington Pavilion (Schuetzle was the line producer of the production). Hours before their film played on the stage, they found out the film had made it further into the Student Academy Awards - an annual competition for college and university filmmakers that goes on until winners are announced in June.

Considering the crew finished final post-production touches on the film hours before the Student Academy Awards deadline and one week before the Reel Dakota showing, the fact that it already moved on to the next round and was well-received by audience members that cold, spring evening was gratifying and a big relief, to say the least.

“It feels surreal. Ever since production wrapped, I’ve battled in my mind whether the movie was good or not, so, as the premiere loomed, I secretly cringed at how people would react,” Kightlinger said. “The letter from the academy regarding our making the first round was the first sign that ‘Bertha’ would be a success in some shape or form.”

Several of the cast, crew and production members of the 23-minute film were there the night of the sold-out premiere, including their other close friend and co-producer, Adam Emerson. Emerson makes up the third piece of the artistic trio who all grew up in Pierre, S.D. (though Kightlinger spent the first 12 years of his life in Madagascar). The three all became close during their time at T.F. Riggs High School while bonding over their admiration for film. Kightlinger, who has wanted to do film for a living since he saw “E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial” at the age of 5, would gather the guys together on Friday nights to watch an eclectic mix

of movies - some being blockbusters and some with an artistic vision.

“When me and Andrew became friends, he really introduced me to watching films, and not just Hollywood ones or the popular ones,” Schuetzle recalled. “One minute we’d be watching ‘Indiana Jones…’”

“And then I’d put in something like ‘Requiem for a Dream,’” Kightlinger laughed.

But they didn’t only watch movies. The trio made short films and footage together for entertainment purposes in their later years of high school - one of the first being a “Star Wars” fan piece.

“It never got completed, fortunately,” Kightlinger said.

After they graduated, the trio parted ways: Schuetzle and Emerson attended South Dakota State University and Kightlinger went to Augustana College. But, ironically enough, none of them majored in film. Schuetzle received a degree in history, Emerson in political science and public policy, and Kightlinger in international affairs and French.

One reason for this was that they knew their majors would come in handy with the business side of movie production.

“We knew we’d always wanted to do projects when we were ready to be done with school, so it was getting prepared and ready for that next step,” Schuetzle said.

“We both realized that a lot of the big mistakes filmmakers make is that art is first and foremost,” Kightlinger said.

“We knew money was going to play the biggest role in what we do with our careers and how we do it.”

He added, “Art doesn’t take second place by any means, but it kind of has to at certain stages of the process.”

But that wasn’t the only reason for Kightlinger’s choice of major. His parents, Lon and Mynna, supported their son, but had the reaction a lot of parents tend to have when

605magazine.com | 35

their child tells them about their dream of making movies.

“They were like ‘Filmmaking? Really?’” Kightlinger laughed. “It was more for my parents.”

But in 2007, a life-changing event caused Kightlinger to reevaluate his decision: His mother passed away of a sudden heart attack.

“At that point, I realized life is too short to do ‘something else.’ So I applied to film school,” he said.

Kightlinger attends the prestigious Boston University and is finishing up his master’s this month. “You Don’t Know Bertha Constantine” is his thesis, but is also much more to the filmmaker. The story deals with the state of grief Bertha experiences after suddenly losing her husband on their 25th wedding anniversary. To honor his wishes to be buried in South Dakota’s Badlands, she wraps him in a sleeping bag and drags his body on a plastic sled across the rugged terrain. With several adversities during the highly emotional journey (such as run-ins with her ex-lover/the police), the audience is exposed to the rawness and honesty of her suffering, all while wondering if she’ll get the closure she is seeking.

Creating the film was Kightlinger’s way of exploring his grief about his mother’s passing, which he hopes – in turn – will be cathartic to those who have also dealt with loss.

The short film, which Kightlinger dubs his “love letter to South Dakota,” also acts as the trio’s “business card” for upcoming projects. They raised around $70,000 from the local community to make the production, which was important to them in order to prove themselves.

“We spent the money,” Kightlinger said. “My movie cost

as much as all my other classmates’ movies combined.”

“We decided that it was something that we would do… to do it right,” Schuetzle said.

And by doing it right, the trio hopes to raise funds again to work on their first feature film: “Dust of War.” “We wanted to show that we can put together the manpower and the capital to make something bigger,” Kightlinger said. “For that next movie we’re doing the same exact thing. If we can make something really high-concept look like it was made for $10 million, but make it for a fraction of that… that’s all Hollywood ever looks for.”

The 91-minute story follows a wandering soldier in “post-apocalyptic America,” who is joined by a “cynical veteran” and a “slimy thief” on his expedition to save a girl from a “brutal warmonger.” The trio’s vision is a “flavored ‘Mad Max’” integrated with an earthy touch of “Dances With Wolves” (the film will be shot in a lot of the same locations as the Kevin Costner production).

Schuetzle will take on the acting lead of Abel, in part because of his experience and background in acting (he most recently was in the war film “Souvenirs” with Academy Award Nominee James Cromwell), but also because of the incredible stunts they plan to do. The scene that is brought up most when talking about “Dust of War” is the epic car chase scene.

“The chase sequence we’re handling with a lot of tender love and care,” Kightlinger said. “We want trucks to careen off cliffs and explode, and all this fun stuff.”

Tender love and care could be an understatement for what they’re brainstorming. Kightlinger, who is turned off

by complicated and unrealistic car chases like in “The Bourne Identity,” wants to go back to classic chase scenes.

“I’m a huge fan of movies from the ‘70s, so we’re kind of hearkening back to that,” Kightlinger said.

And what better way to do so than by flying in cinematographer Owen Roizman to consult the scene, who made films such as “The Exorcist,” “Tootsie” – and the film with one of the most famous carchase sequences ever – “The French Connection.”

Kightlinger is in negotiation with Roizman’s camp, and if 38 | May 2011

they get his involvement, this scene could be huge. It all depends, though, on their funding. The trio is using kickstarter.com again (they raised $5,000 in one week for “You Don’t Know Bertha Constantine”) in hopes to get what they need for that particular portion of the film. The more money someone donates, the more incentives they get (i.e. a signed poster and DVD, a visit on the set and/or executive producer credit for the film).

And raising funds will also help them cast talent they’re going after, like actor Ron Perlman (known for “Hellboy” and “Sons of Anarchy”). Their reasoning for going “all out” for this feature is to use it as a “megaphone” to Hollywood to bring the $10 billion industry to their home state.

“We want to bring filmmaking to South Dakota, like what ‘Lord of the Rings’ did for New Zealand,” Schuetzle said.

Emerson thinks getting involved in “Dust of War” is a very exciting opportunity for investors once they realize the film’s potential. “Film is, on one hand, a very fun thing to be a part of, but it’s also a very proven thing,” Emerson said.

To show investors how it is a proven thing, the trio has a detailed business plan to layout how the filmmaking will happen, what investors should expect as a return and how they are going to get the movie distributed (film festivals, agents, distributors, etc.).

There are also tax incentives for investors with Federal 181, which allows producers to “immediately deduct the cost of qualifying expenditures in the year they occur rather than having to spread or amortize those costs over a period of time after the film goes to market.” This incentive applies to films under $15 million of production cost.

“They renewed [Federal 181] for this year, and it ends next year and might never happen again,” Schuetzle said.

“It’s like a built-in 35 percent return.”

Schuetzle continued, “We just want to make the investors of ‘Dust of War’ rich, because that means we get to keep doing what we love and make films.”

For those who can’t invest, there are opportunities for being part of the cast, crew or internships. If that’s not your thing, the trio just wants your support by getting updates on the “Dust of War” Facebook page, where they will be starting a viral marketing campaign where people will be joining the warmonger’s (General Chizum’s) army.

At the end of the day, Kightlinger hopes that when people see the film it will be like a vacation in the theater.

“My main purpose is to entertain people,” Kightlinger said. “As long as they feel something.”

the scoop: effective Networking

by Carl Anthony

The dream job! Who could resist? How about all of the perks associated with it?

Whatever is behind your motivation, the importance of networking proves that the old adage is true:

40 | May 2011

Lastly, Anderson reminds all young professionals that a coat and tie is not always necessary for effective networking. “Just be yourself and make a friend,” Anderson suggested. “Networking can happen anywhere, anytime.”

“It’s not what you know, but who you know.”

So how do we get to know the right people? Better yet, how do we get to know them the right way?

Val Anderson, loan officer at Farmer’s State Bank in Canton and president of Sioux Falls Synergy pointed out, “Networking is more than just tossing out your business card to everybody in the room.”

And this same ideology is shared with Dan Menke, assistant financial manager at Pride Neon and member of the Sioux Falls Young Professionals Network. “You have to focus on relationship building,” he advised.

While Anderson and Menke are conversational and quick-witted, what about those who are introverted? What about the people who have many great talents, yet are nervous when it comes to establishing relationships? Menke suggested starting small.

“Attend one of our morning YPN coffee events,” he said. “There are not as many people there and it will help break the ice.”

Menke assured the more a person attends events, the more comfortable they will become. “Soon you will know half the people in the room,” Menke said.

Anderson offered reassurance to bashful types.

“Just don’t be afraid to get out there and mingle at one of our Synergy events,” she said. “We will include you and we will let you know we are happy you came.”

While attending events put on by SF Synergy and the YPN can do wonders for your client list, both Anderson and Menke strongly encourage not to attend just to grab a sale.

“The last thing you want to do is push for a business transaction with somebody you just met,” Menke said. “Be there to make a genuine connection and the rest will follow.”

Anderson said those who “play it cool” are the ones who have the most success. “It is not a competition to see who can gather the most contacts in a day,” Anderson said. “It is about creating relationships that last as opposed to blasting your info all over the room.”

For those wanting to expand on the idea of networking, SF Synergy is holding their Annual Celebration at the Falls Overlook Café at Falls Park May 12. Their website www. sfsynergy.org contains information about membership and the group’s unique three-tier structure. Likewise, visit www. siouxfallsypn.com for more info on YPN. Their website lists some of the advantages of being involved as well as a detailed event list, that includes their “Morning Buzz” on May 11 at the Hilton Garden Inn.

Networking Tips Anderson and Menke’s tips for following up with a recent networking contact.

-E-mailing or texting a simple “nice to meet you” or “thank you” may open many doors.

-Inquire more about their product or service. Educate yourself with what they do.

-If you phone them, ask if you have interrupted anything important.

-Be confident, even if you’re not. Know that other people in the room are there for the same reason, so don’t be afraid to make the first move and introduce yourself.

-If you know someone in the room, spend some time visiting with them in hopes they may introduce you to someone they know.

-”Work the Wall” and make an effort to reach-out to people standing alone in the room. They are potential customers, and think how grateful they will be that you have befriended them.

the real deal: Adam Peterman Hometown: Villisca, Iowa | Age: 32 | Specialty: Marketing & Sales

42 | May 2011

Adam Peterman is a great example of a passionate young professional who truly loves what he does.

Peterman was always lucky enough to work towards his career while never losing his “first love” – sports. He earned a degree in computer science and business marketing from Morningside College in Sioux City, Iowa, where he was able to play baseball while still receiving in-state benefits. After a short while working in computers, he was offered a job in sales in La Crosse, Wisc. for their indoor football team, the La Crosse Night Train. At first he was apprehensive, but because of his dedication for sports, he embraced the opportunity.

Peterman’s passion began as early as he could remember.

His dad had him playing catch as soon as he could walk.

This adoration ultimately helped him in his career. Peterman believes being naïve about sales ultimately helped him succeed as he was simply “selling honesty.” After Peterman left the indoor football team, he went on to work for Kaplan Professional Education for the next seven years. He was a national account director and was let go when “Kaplan downsized.” After returning to Sioux Falls, he took a shot in the dark and sent a resume to the Sioux Falls Stampede.

Owner Gary Weckwerth called him and told him his plans about the Sioux Falls Canaries. Adam was named Director of Baseball Operations for the newly dubbed Sioux Falls Fighting Pheasants. He has duties such as selling the brand to potential advertisers, setting up player housing, dealing with player injuries, and working closely with Pheasants

by Joshua Johnson

manager Steve Shirley to make sure they are putting the best product on the field. During the season, Adam is in charge of around 100 employees per game.

605: What is your dream job? a: My dream job wasn’t necessarily to work in one profession over another. My career goal was to wake up every day with the feeling that I get to go to work today… not that had to go to work. If you can feel that about any job, then I would say you are doing a pretty good job. Be happy in what you do and who you work with… not necessarily with the title you have on your business card.

605: What pro athletes did you admire growing up, and who do you admire now? a: Like many kids in the ‘90s, I idolized Michael Jordan.

I was also a huge George Brett and Bo Jackson fan when I was really young. I collected and still have all their sports cards.

605: What is the hardest part of your job? a: Staying flexible. At a moment’s notice, something might change that can impact weeks and months of planning. You have to be able to adapt and do it quickly. I’m always thinking three or four moves in advance when considering the decisions that I need to make.

605: If you could say one thing to the Pheasant faithful, what would it be? a: First off, I would like to thank each and every fan that made it out to a game in 2010. It was an unbelievable season on the field; one that we weren’t necessarily prepared to see. Fans that experienced last season probably saw the best professional baseball team that ever played in Sioux Falls. All the credit goes to our manager, Steve Shirley, for putting a great product on the field.

I would also like to remind those who have yet to experience a game under the Pheasants’ banner to please give us an opportunity to entertain you, your family and your friends. Your team and front-office staff are passionate about Minor League Baseball. You are invited to the ballpark this summer to share in that enthusiasm.

Styles you love!

Prices you like!

Your Pheasants open their season on May 16 versus the Winnipeg Goldeyes. Season promotions include fireworks every Friday night at home games, and every Sunday home game kids can run the bases afterwards and get autographs from the players.

relationships 101 Lesson #7 - The Friend Dilemma Sit down and listen up, ya little jerks!

Well, contrary to my initial beliefs about you, you’ve proved me wrong! You’ve managed to trick someone into not only liking you, but dating you exclusively and establishing a relationship.

Good for you.

You now have the unbridled privilege of trying to manage another aspect of adult life. Initially, a relationship starting out is going to be a time when you want to spend every minute together, and do as much as you can together. You undoubtedly have that “butterfly-inthe-stomach feeling” that is puppy love. This a great time, and you should really enjoy it. However, this is not a lesson about how great the start of a new relationship can be. This is a lesson on how to handle the time after the “butterfly” stage. This is a lesson on how to manage time with your partner and time with your friends.

Yes, it is time to discuss the friend dilemma. Friends are a very important aspect of everyone’s life. It is important to foster this relationship even after you have entered into a romantic pairing.

Spending time with your significant other is great – don’t get me wrong – but, in order to strike a good balance in your life and maintain relationships apart from that of your lover, it becomes important to make time for your friends. This is not only emotionally healthy, but allows you and your partner to have time away from one another. No matter how much people like each other, they will, at some point, become annoyed of the other person. Whether it is something as small as not putting the toilet seat down or leaving cupboards open, something is going to eventually get on your nerves and drive you batty. There is no need to let these little things have a detrimental effect on your relationship.

If the flame goes out, your friends will be there to pick you up. If nothing else, this is an important reason to maintain those

Spending time with friends will allow you and your partner to take a break and not let the little things get on your nerves. Go watch the Twins with the boys or sit down for cocktails with the girls. Whatever you and your friends do, you should make time with them to still enjoy those activities.

Now, you may have noticed that the latter explanation of “friend time” dealt with time with friends sans your significant other. I will say that spending time together with each of your groups of friends is also very important. The person you have tricked into being your significant other needs to be accepted by your friends, or your relationship will struggle.

That is just a fact.

However, there are times when you need to be away from each other and do some of the things with your friends that you did before you were together. This will allow you to maintain the friendships you had before this relationship started. Relationships are fickle and don’t always work out.

If the flame goes out, your friends will be there to pick you up. If nothing else, this is an important reason to maintain those relationships.

However, if the opposite happens and you and this person you have started a relationship with decide to get hitched, you also don’t want a Peter Klaven situation à la “I Love You Man.” So, I wish you good luck in finding a nice balance between friend and lover.

Happy dating.

relationships.

ask THE JOHNS Yes, all three of these guys are named John. Yes, it was a popular name in the ’80s (I’m sure you feel their pain all you Katies, Michaels and Jessicas). But these three gentlemen, when not playing “The Sims Medieval,” are here to answer every question you throw at them.

They’re suave, sort of hip, and are here for you. The identity of these three amigos has been altered to protect the innocent.

1.) One of my good friends recently kissed my brother... is mixing friends with family as horrible of an idea as I think it is? Or could this be a good thing?

-Awkwardly Confused JR: It could be a good thing, but most likely, it will be a horrible thing. The initial lust will quickly become jealousy and hatred, and you will be placed awkwardly in the middle. I would also make out with her (or his?) brother as soon as possible to teach them a lesson.

JW: While it’s better than you kissing your brother, I would try to avoid this situation. When they inevitably break up, you’ll be stuck in the middle. You’ll have to console your brother, which may require hugging or lead to kissing… See, we’re back where we started again. Avoid anything I just said. Run away!

JT: In an ideal world, you want to become friends with the girl your brother dates. Since you’re already friends with this girl that could severely complicate things. If they start dating, it

42 | May 2011 46

might develop into a fairy tale wedding, but you and I know that is doubtful. It will most likely lead to them breaking up, making your relationship with her uncomfortable.

2.) My boyfriend sometimes has bad breath... How can I delicately tell him without hurting his feelings?

-Eek JR: I think I need more information. I mean, basically everyone will have bad breath sometimes. I can’t help but be suspicious that you’re the typical nagging girlfriend and there is, in fact, nothing wrong with your boyfriend.

JW: Cheat on him with someone who has good breath. He’ll read between the lines and understand that he should chew gum. Now you don’t have to have that awkward conversation about breath, just about the cheating.

3.) I’m horrible at cooking.

Horrible. How do I even start?

Or am I hopeless?

-Amy JR: Step one: Go online and find a recipe you think sounds good. Step two: Go to the grocery store and buy all the necessary ingredients. Step three: Go home and start preparing said recipe, being careful to follow the instructions.

Step four: Order a pizza. It sounds like there is a pretty good chance you’ll still screw this up, and I don’t want you to go hungry.

JW: Amy? That is a strange name for a guy… Take a few classes.

JT: The only way you become a good cook is by practicing. Start slow. Ask to help family or friends cook their next meal and learn from them. You just have to be patient and start simple.

Disclaimer: Ask the Johns is a sarcastic piece. Their advice is not meant to be taken literally… except maybe John T’s.

JT: If you were in his shoes, how would you want to be told your breath stinks?

He may not even know he has a problem. Like you said, take it delicately.

health: Hot Hounds: Advice on Preventing Heat Stroke Whether you’re taking your dog out for a jaunt or simply letting them hang out in the backyard, it is very important to take as many precautions as possible to avoid a serious issue for pets: heat stroke.

East Acres Animal Hospital veterinarian Dr. David Rola said the condition can be prevented if your favorite companion has two important elements.

“They must have access to shade and water at all times,” said Dr. Rola.

Especially on the hot and humid days, it is always best to bring some water and to take breaks when you’re out for a walk or run with your dog. If you’re dog was on winter hiatus from outdoor activities, Dr. Rola suggested, “Work gradually into walks.”

Curt Melton made sure to keep shade and water in mind when he transformed the old Sioux Falls Humane Society building into Hidden Paradise Pet Kennels in 2002 (which he recently renovated). The indoor/outdoor kennels have four-feet of roofing for shade, and when the dogs are out for “play time” there is always shade from the trees or the actual building. In regards to water, Melton suggested avoiding metal bowls so the water doesn’t get hot. Along with providing plenty of water to drink, Melton also has a fun way to keep the dogs cool that you can do at home as well. “I have a five-foot kiddie pool,” Melton said.

One of the most fatal mistakes a pet owner can make is keep-

54 | May 2011

ing their pet in the car for too long – even with the windows cracked. “[Cars] can get up to 120 degrees in a hurry,” Dr. Rola explained.

Some dogs are more susceptible to heat stroke than others.

Brachycephalic breeds (“short-faced” canines like Boston Terriers, English Bulldogs, Pugs, etc.), those with black coats and those with a history of heart murmurs need to have extra precautions and might need to be kept inside more often.

If your pet shows any of the signs of heat stroke (located in the table shown) you need to take action immediately. Melton has only had one instance of heat stroke and that was with his Tree Walker Coonhound when they were first opening their business. His wife had been with their dog on the bike trails when she returned in a panic. His companion was lethargic, disoriented and Melton said he almost appeared to be in a paralyzed state.

Thankfully, instinct took Signs Of Heat Stroke: over.

“I took him back into the • Vigorous Panting bike trails and put him into • Dark or Bright Red Gums the river,” he recalled. “That • Disorientation snapped him right out of • Loss of Consciousness it.”

Dr. Rola said as soon as there are any indications of heat stroke, you need to lower their body temperature as soon as possible. Hosing them down can work, but even if it appears they’re better, it’s always best to take them into the vet. Icing the back of their legs can also help cool them off on the way to the animal hospital.

One passionate topic that comes up when dealing with avoiding heat stroke is whether or not to cut your pet’s hair.

Naturally, it would seem that you would be doing your dog a favor by trimming or buzzing their hair to help them cool down.

But Jennifer Biggins, owner of Paws and Reflect Pet Grooming feels there should be research before jumping to a cut.

“Although it may seem reasonable, there are some consequences to shaving down the wrong dog, and I go over these with our customers if they request a shave down,” she said. “All pet groomers should be educating their customers about the possible risks of shaving certain breeds.”

There are two different coat types for dogs: The double-coated and the single-coated. The double-coated dogs are the ma-

jority of the herding and working breeds (i.e. Golden Retrievers, Newfoundlands, Shelties) and can have a negative impact from getting their hair cut or shaved. They have a soft under coat and a coarser outer coat. When their hair is trimmed or buzzed, it can change the way the hair grows in or lies on the coat permanently.

“This damages the protective coarse hair on the dog making the coat less effective in protecting your pet from the elements,” Biggins said.

In doing so, it can cool off your pet during the summer, but come wintertime it might effect keeping them warm.

Melton also feels dogs shouldn’t be shaved and thinks owners should let them be natural. Not only could their hair grow back sparsely, but they are also more exposed to the sun.

“When you shave a dog, they’re more prone to getting sun burnt,” Melton said.

Biggins said she believes using sunscreen is okay, especially on breeds with short hair that tend to get pink or sensitive skin after sun exposure (pet sunscreen is preferred).

Though it is always good to take precautions, if you provide your pet the important elements of shade and water, they should be safe from heat stroke.

According to Melton, “For the most part dogs know their limit.”
