Career path takes turn to the Far East From social worker to acupuncturist By JULIA BIGGS Of The Edge After Heather Hudzik graduated from Edwardsville High School in 1999, she set off to Edgewood College in Madison, Wisc., to pursue a degree in social work. Her career direction took a bit of a turn while helping a friend overcome a medical condition. Now, several years later and with a master's degree in traditional Oriental medicine under her belt, Hudzik has moved back to Edwardsville and is accepting clients at Rising Sun Acupuncture and Massage. Hudzik recalled the moment that it was clear social work was not her calling but alternative medicine was in her future. “I’ve always been into prevention and nutrition and alternative medicine,” Hudzik said. “I had a friend who had this chronic phlegm problem that no doctor could figure out, and I became obsessed with trying to figure out what the cause of it could be. And she told me, 'I don’t know why you aren’t doing this for a career because it just seems to be what you’re really passionate about.'” That comment hit a chord and soon Hudzik was researching programs to assist her in a new direction – alternative medicine. She attended Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in Chicago, a four year rigorous program, and then graduated with a Master of Science in Traditional Oriental Medicine (MSTOM). H u d z i k m o v e d b a c k t o Edwardsville in August, joined Jeff Patterson in his offices of Rising Sun Acupuncture and Massage at 228 South Main St. in Edwardsville and is now building her clientele. Hudzik explained that she practices “the full system of Chinese medicine. “There are a lot of chiropractors who do acupuncture for pain management,” Hudzik said. “They mostly just treat muscular skeletal disorders, but I treat almost any disease. I’m not saying that I can cure them, but I can do something for anything, really.” Some of the common diseases that she treats are digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, and infertility. “Those are some of the big ones we see a lot and of course, pain, skin conditions, a r t h r i t i s , f i b ro m y a l g i a , a u t o immune disorders,” Hudzik said. B o t h t h e Wo r l d H e a l t h Organization and the National Institutes of Health recognize that acupuncture can also be a

Heather Hudzik, a licensed Acupuncturist and Chinese Herbalist, treats a client for knee pain using very fine, painless needles during an acupuncture treatment. helpful part of a treatment plan for many illnesses such as addiction (such as alcoholism), asthma, bronchitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, constipation, diarrhea, facial tics, headaches, irregular periods, low back pain, menopausal symptoms, menstrual cramps, osteoarthritis, sinusitis, spastic colon (often called irritable bowel syndrome), stroke rehabilitation, tendinitis, tennis elbow and urinary problems such as incontinence. “Chinese medicine has been around for thousands of years,” Hudzik pointed out. “It’s really good for prevention. For detecting energy imbalances before they become full blown diseases.” Describing how Chinese medicine detects vital substances like Yin and Yon and the chi in the blood, Hudzik elaborated on a few of the ways they detect the imbalances and determine which organs are out of balance. “We detect the imbalances by asking a bunch of questions, and we do pulse diagnoses and look at people’s tongues.” The result is finding the “underlying cause of the disease” i n s t e a d o f j u s t t re a t i n g t h e symptoms. While Hudzik noted that they can alleviate symptoms too, she emphasized that Chinese medicine is about “treating the root cause of the disease” and not just the symptoms.
Also a Chinese herbalist, Hudzik said her education focused extensively on herbology which allows her to provide herbal prescriptions after acupuncture appointments. “We use Chinese formulas so it’s different than a lot of the herbs that people know about already,” she said. “We use these Chinese herb formulations so there’s like six to 20 herbs in a formula.” Hudzik offers a variety of Chinese herbs, in pill form, out of her office. “But eventually I want to have a powder pharmacy where you mix it up with water and drink it,” she said. “It’s a more powerful way to take it, but for now I have the pills.” Acupuncture can also be used for facial rejuvenation to reduce wrinkles, assist with discoloration and tighten sagging skin. “It can reduce fine lines and increase elasticity and firmness,” Hudzik said. “You’ll find the underlying imbalance that they have too and treat them from the inside out so you’re not just treating it on the surface level.” As Hudzik builds her practice, she’s also working part time at Green Earth Grocery which is a natural fit allowing her to build upon her knowledge of supplements. S h e ’ s s h a r i n g o ff i c e s p a c e with Patterson at Rising Sun
Acupuncture and Massage. It’s a perfect match because Patterson offers Japanese style oriental medicine, which is similar to Hudzik’s Chinese-style, and Patterson is a massage therapist as well. As an introductory offer, Hudzik is offering to new clients half off a first treatment. “Then it’s $70 a session after that,” she said. This special is only being offered for Hudzik’s new patients – not Patterson’s. For those who may be squeamish to the idea of acupuncture, Hudzik emphasized how “virtually painless the process is.” She described the needles as the “thickness of a cat’s whisker” and said that it is a “very shallow insertion. They are not hypodermic needles,” she said. Hudzik stressed that her vast education allows her to help those suffering from a variety of diseases and ailments. “I have a lot of education in western medicine too. I had to learn all the western diseases,” she said. “I know the body pretty well.” Anyone interested in further information about the benefits of acupuncture or to schedule an appointment with Hudzik can call her at 618-975-5829. She’s currently scheduling appointments Monday through Saturday and is also taking evening appointments.

George, Reba and Lee Ann Country trio to invade Scottrade Center By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge Dust off you white Stetson and your Lee jeans, George Strait is loading up and is going to be pulling back into St. Louis to the Scottrade Center on Thursday, Feb. 18. The 17 time CMA Entertainer of the Year nomineewill kick off his arena tour early next year and this time, he’s bringing along two very special ladies, Reba McEntire and Lee Ann Womack. Strait and McEntire performed together for the first time in many years for a sold-out crowd at the Cowboy’s Stadium inaugural event in Dallas, selling out in less than an hour. The concert was hailed by the Dallas Morning News as “an extravaganza” that “showcased Strait at the pinnacle of his musical game” and the Fort Worth Star Telegram wrote “Reba McEntire’s performance was a breathtaking master’s class in effortless brilliance.” With 57 number one hits, 33 multiplatinum albums and countless sold-out shows year after year, Strait who holds the record for the most CMA wins, is known for giving fans exactly what they want and expect. The St. Louis concert will be no exception. “I can’t wait to get back out there and perform some of my new favorites from ‘Twang’ along with hits the fans already love,” says Strait. “And with my friends Reba and Lee Ann, we will make it a really spectacular night.” Strait recently released his No. 1 debuting album, “TWANG,” that soared straight to the top on The Billboard 200 and the Top
For The Edge
Reba McEntire and George Strait Country Albums chart. This is the fourth time in Strait’s career that a new release has debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and the 13th time debuting at No. 1 on the Top Country Albums chart. Strait co-wrote three songs on “TWANG” including the debut single, “Living for the Night.” The current single and title track of the album sits at No. 22 on “Billboard” and “Mediabase/Country Aircheck” chart. One of the most successful female
recording artists in history, Reba McEntire has sold over 55 million albums worldwide, earned 33 No. 1 singles and was recently recognized as the biggest female hit-maker in country music history by “Billboard,” “Mediabase/Country Aircheck.” She is the winner of 15 American Music Awards, 12 Academy of Country Music Awards, nine People’s Choice Awards, seven Country Music Awards and two Grammy Awards. Reba’s new album, “Keep On Loving
You,” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums Chart , her first solo studio album to do so.

Band Bio: The Matt Rowland Band By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge The Matt Rowland Band is: Matt Rowland - guitar/vocals, Steve Ranney - bass/vocals, Joe Winters - drums. Record Label - Arsenic Records. Their bio according to myspace.com: “Each of the three members of the Matt Rowland Band set out on a different career path but wound up as part of the same team because of his love of music. Singer-guitarist Rowland became a mechanical engineer, percussionist Joe Winters received his degree in biology, and bass player Steve Ranney graduated with a degree in psychology, all from the University of Missouri at Columbia.” The bio goes on to explain how the three gents met up and were destined to play music, stuck together and started pumping out some original material, such as the songs “Grounded” “Can’t Seem 2” and “Sudden Motion.” They recently signed with Arsenic Records and time will only tell where these three will go. Upcoming gigs: Dec. 10, 10 p.m., Stagger Inn, Edwardsville Dec 11, 8 p.m., The Pageant, St. Louis; Dec. 12, 7 p.m., Shenanigans Bar & Grill, Edwardsville; Dec. 19, 7 p.m.; Shenanigans Bar & Grill, Edwardsville; Dec 27, 8 p.m., Shenanigans Bar & Grill, Edwardsville; Dec. 27, 8 p.m., Shenanigans Bar & Grill, Edwardsville.

Music Tuning in St. Louis Chamber Chorus to celebrate the holidays The Saint Louis Chamber Chorus closes 2009 with “A New World Christmas,” intended to complement last year’s Christmas performance of music by European composers. The program includes many of the same texts as last year but set to music by composers from the New World working primarily in the past 150 years. While the audience will recognize popular carols such as “O Little Town of Bethlehem” and “It Came Upon The Midnight Clear,” many might not be familiar with “Scenes from the Holy Infancy,” a chamber cantata by Missouri’s own Virgil Thomson. Morten Lauridsen’s “O Magnum Mysterium” and “If Ye Would Hear Angels Sing” by the Chamber Chorus’s own Martha Shaffer show that contemporary Christmas music is alive and well. The concert will also feature a world premiere by Sasha Johnson Manning and commissioned by the Chamber Chorus. “The Tree of Life” stands as a companion to Manning’s 2008 piece, “Christbaum.” No Chamber Chorus program can be without its share of surprises. This concert’s offerings include “Magnificat” set to music by the 17th century Columbian composer Gutiérrez Fernández Hidalgo. Far from the only South American composer represented the concert will also include music of Brazilian Heitor Villa-Lobos and a Christmas song by Carlos Guastavino of Argentina. As another surprise treat the concert will open with “Hanacpachap Cussicuinin,” the earliest example of polyphony from Peru, sung in the native language of Nahuatl. Join the Saint Louis Chamber Chorus for its celebration of “A New World Christmas,” at 3 p.m. Sunday, December 20 at the St. Louis Cathedral Basilica. Parking is free. For more information about the concert, and tickets, call 636-4584343.

Wash. U. announces performing arts schedule Live performance has always been a multidisciplinary event, its three great streams — theater, music and dance — forever shifting and combining in new and unpredictable ways. For its 2009-10 season, the Performing Arts Department (PAD) in Arts & Sciences will present a handful of works that together highlight both the boundless possibility and the transformational power of the stage. “Great art does not merely copy human experience,” says Robert Henke, Ph.D., professor and chair of the PAD. “It transforms it, quite literally, by concentrating and distilling experience through pre-existing but always changing forms.” The season will continue Feb. 19-28 with Eric Overmyer ’s On the Verge (or The Geography of Yearning) — a kaleidoscopic comedy following three Victorian women as they trek through time, space and pop culture — directed by Andrea Urice, senior lecturer in drama.
December 10, 2009
William Whitaker, senior lecturer in drama, will direct Lynn Nottage’s Fabulation, a satiric morality tale about a Manhattan publicist whose life begins to spiral out of control, March 25-28. From April 9-11 the PAD will host its fourth biannual Young Choreographers Showcase, featuring original works — selected by audition — by student choreographers. Concluding the season April 23-May 2 will be Metamorphoses, the acclaimed play by MacArthur “genius award” winner Mary Zimmerman. Based on ancient Roman myths drawn from the works of Ovid, this inventive evening is neither musical nor drama nor dance concert, but instead fuses elements of all three forms to create a unique epic at once modern and timeless. Henry Schvey, Ph.D., professor in the PAD, will direct, with choreography
by Cecil Slaughter. The A.E. Hotchner Playwriting Festival is free and open to the public. Tickets to Ragtime are $20, or $15 for Washington University faculty and staff and $10 for children, students and seniors. All other events are $15, or $10 for students, seniors, faculty and staff. Subscriptions to three or more events are available for $12 per show. In addition, the PAD offers a special “season pass” for $58. A current Washington University ID is required; registration deadline is Oct. 2. For more information about the PAD season or to order tickets, call the Edison Theatre Box Office at (314) 935-6543. In addition to performances, the PAD will host lectures, discussions, symposia and other events throughout the year.

Holidays have such great meaning for family and friends, but with the holidays comes the stress of all the preparation of family gatherings, meals and shopping. Stress overtaxes and drains one mentally, physically and emotionally. Negative stress can initiate and contribute to many disease processes and aggravate current ones. It is important to recognize how we handle our stress, how we take it on and how we release it. Meditation, exercises, music, walks, well-balanced diet, good sleep, sunshine and laughter are some of the ways of relieving stress and being in control of innermost thoughts and our actions. Put a song in your heart, not just during the holidays, but every day. May your holidays be full of joy, peace & hope.

“A Christmas Carol”
The time, not just the season, is ripe for a new version of “A Christmas Carol.” When Charles Dickens wrote his classic story, it was a cautionary tale to greedy capitalists of the 19th century (Scrooge recalls his deceased partner, Jacob Marley, as “a good man of business.”). Dickens’ story is about as sturdy a one as we’ve got — it would be nearly impossible to mar what might be the finest ghost story this side of “Hamlet.” Unfortunately, our 2009 version is defined only by its technology. Animated in 3-D, Disney’s “A Christmas Carol,” directed by Robert Zemeckis, suffocates from its design. Despite (or because of) Zemeckis’ approach to using performance-capture animation, the film comes off oddly inanimate. Jim Carrey, playing not just Scrooge but the three ghosts who visit him, clearly has the zest and range for the parts. But he — like the rest of the cast, including Gary Oldman, Colin Firth and Cary Elwes — struggles to break through the film’s excessive wizardry. RATED: PG for scary sequences and images. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two stars out of four.
“2012”
The end is not near enough for this latest nihilistic disaster flick, directed by end-of-the-world specialist Roland Emmerich (“The Day After Tomorrow,” ‘’Independence Day”). The 2 1/2-hour film hews close to genre standards: the redeemed deadbeat dad (John Cusack), the coming together of different peoples, the toppling of monuments. The cause of destruction this time is neutrinos from the sun that have heated the earth’s core and destabilized the planet’s crust. Cusack and others skip narrowly ahead of the shifting tectonics; California falls into the ocean and much of the world follows suit. The most grounded thing here is the acting. Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor (as a government scientist), Oliver Platt (as the president’s chiefof-staff) and Woody Harrelson (perfectly cast as a conspiracy theory-addled nut) almost convince you that something decent is at work in “2012.” But it’s just another doomsday film, with new digital effects and stock scenes patched together from “Jaws,” ‘’The Poseidon Adventure” and “Armageddon.” RATED: PG-13 for intense disaster sequences and some language. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: One and a half stars out of four.
“The Blind Side”
This redemption-minded sports flick serves its inspiration straight-up with no twist. Writer-director John Lee Hancock wisely lets the true story of Michael Oher — the AfricanAmerican teen who found a home and, eventually, football stardom, after being adopted by a wealthy Memphis family — speak for itself. That direct focus delivers a feel-good crowdpleaser, but it also drains the film of the kind of subtle nuances
December 10, 2009
that might have separated it from other Hollywood Hallmarklike efforts, including Hancock’s own “The Rookie.” The movie dutifully chronicles the transformation of Oher (newcomer Quinton Aaron) from blank slate to a fully formed young man, emphasizing the involvement of Leigh Ann Tuohy (Sandra Bullock). Bullock brings her trademark spunkiness to the mother hen role, delivering an iron-willed woman who looks past appearances to do the right thing. RATING: PG-13 for one scene involving brief violence, drug and sexual references. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two and a half stars out of four.
“The Twilight Saga: New Moon”
As every Stephenie Meyer fan knows, this is the one where studly vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) dumps human girlfriend Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) for her own safety, and she turns to old chum Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) for solace, unaware that he’s a werewolf, and therefore Edward’s sworn enemy. Fans will turn out in blockbuster legions, but here are a few of the many things wrong with director Chris Weitz’s adaptation: It’s really two half moons, or two halves of a movie that don’t quite fit. Mopey teenager Bella has all the luster of, well, a mopey teenager. The real rivalry is whether werewolves or vampires can behave with greater preposterousness and pretension. Finally, “New Moon” is boring, eternally so. The soap-opera melodrama of Stewart, Pattinson and Lautner’s performances provides some unintentional laughs. Yet Stewart is on screen almost all the time, and her Bella is just a drag to be around. With her flat speech and listless presence, it’s unfathomable how two different sets of monsters could fixate so completely on her. RATED: PG-13 for some violence and action. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: One and a half stars out of four.
“Me and Orson Welles”
In Richard Linklater ’s adaptation of the historical fiction novel by Robert Kaplow, our view of the great, charismatic director and thespian isn’t straight on, but sideways. We see Welles (Christian McKay) from the perspective of an aspiring teenager, Richard Samuels (Zac Efron), who lands a bit part in Welles’ 1937 production of Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar” at the Mercury Theatre in New York. Fame is imminent for Welles, and he knows it. Richard passionately wants to be around theater, movies and music: It’s a picture of the artist as a young heartthrob. Though Efron’s fly on-the-wall performance is effortless and confident, it also lacks heft. McKay, a previously
unknown British theater actor, has Welles down pat: the ever-shifting eyebrows, the sonorous, arch baritone, the “old man.” Though this brisk, amiable film revels in the backstage banter and ramshackle rehearsals of a theater company coming to life, it fails to heed Welles’ own advice: “Make ‘em sweat.” RATED: PG-13 for sexual references and smoking. RUNNING TIME: 114 minutes. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two and a half stars out of four.
“The Princess and the Frog”
The spirit of Walt Disney lives on in this return to handdrawn animation by the studio that pioneered the art form. Disney has gone back to its roots with a fresh, funny retelling of a classic fairy tale. This isn’t the second coming of “Beauty and the Beast” or “The Lion King.” It’s just plain pleasant, an old-fashioned charmer that’s not straining to be the next glib animated compendium of pop-culture flotsam. Updating the Brothers Grimm tale “The Frog Prince” to the Louisiana bayou in the 1920s, the film centers on a waitress (voiced by Anika Noni Rose) whose dream of opening her own restaurant is sidetracked when she encounters a smooth-talking prince (Bruno Campos) transformed into a frog. Directors Ron Clements and John Musker (“The Little Mermaid”) deliver a satisfying gumbo of snappy dialogue, lovable characters and bright-hued images. RATED: G. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Three stars out of four.
“The Road”
Director John Hillcoat’s adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel strives to stay close to the book, but it fails to translate its essence and somehow feels more dreary than it should — which is saying something for a story about the apocalypse. Despite its end-of-theworld setting — an ashen wasteland dotted by marauding cannibals — McCarthy’s book is, at heart, a father-son parable. We know them only as The Man (Viggo Mortenson) and The Boy (Kodi Smit-McPhee). Hillcoat’s film feels altogether uncertain, unable to find the scene-to-scene drama of their tenuous survival. Our dominant impression of the Man is his morbidity; Mortensen, a fine actor, doesn’t evoke the weighty, terse steadfastness of the Man. Adapting a masterpiece such as “The Road” is a thankless task, but the film doesn’t work on its own merits. “The Road” should reverberate with the most central questions of life and death, hope and despair. RATED: R for some violence, disturbing images and language ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two stars out of four.

“Old Dogs” just feels tired By DAVID GERMAIN Associated Press In case anyone in the audience isn’t sure when to cackle, coo, snicker or sigh, the makers of “Old Dogs” have provided a handy on-screen prompt. It’s an old dog, shown in closeup, reacting with little grunts of canine confusion or curiosity over the antics of Robin Williams and John Travolta in this dead stray of a family comedy. Director Walt Becker cuts away to the pooch, the aging pet of Travolta’s character, again and again. So often, in fact, that maybe Sebastian, the 9year-old dog playing the creaky old pet, should have shared top billing with Travolta and Williams in this rubbish about middle-aged buddies caring for young twins one of them never knew he fathered. At some point, you half expect to hear the dog’s thoughts, like the yammering pets in “Look Who’s Talking Now,” the last in Travolta’s talking-baby series (a movie franchise that seems like Preston Sturges compared to this). Whatever the old dog might want to say, it’s bound to have been more interesting than anything uttered by the two-legged creatures in “Old Dogs.” Becker, who scored a hit working with Travolta on 2007’s dumb but inoffensive “Wild Hogs,” takes things down a notch or two for “Old Dogs.” Travolta plays swinging bachelor Charlie to Williams’ mopey Dan, pals since childhood who run a successful sports-marketing agency. The movie opens with a flurry of ham-fisted flashbacks as Charlie inexplicably starts a crucial business meeting by chronicling Dan’s whirlwind marriage to Vicki (Kelly Preston, Travolta’s real-life wife) seven years earlier.
Associated Press
In this film publicity image released by Disney, John Travolta, left, and Robin Williams are shown in a scene from the film, “Old Dogs.” Dan and Vicki split immediately, but the brief marriage resulted in twins (Conner Rayburn and Ella Bleu Travolta, Preston and Travolta’s daughter). With Charlie and Dan caught up in negotiations for the biggest deal of their careers, Vicki arrives needing to stash the kids with their dad for two weeks while she’s off doing jail time for a political protest. Will the parentally inept Dan prove he can be a dad to his twins?
Will the kids’ shenanigans foul up Charlie and Dan’s big deal? Will their friendship survive the strain, will business or family win out? Will Sebastian ever speak his mind? We all know the answers before the movie starts. The fun is supposed to be in getting there, but “Old Dogs” is no fun whatsoever, just a collection of stale kibble. Working from a screenplay by David Diamond and David
Weissman, Becker offers bad gags about doggie incontinence, golfballs to the groin and repetitive jokes about people mistaking Travolta and Williams as grandparents. The physical humor is crude and often cruel, a hand model’s precious digits mashed by a car trunk, a Frisbee football game that gives way to mean-spirited elbows and crushing tackles. A family affair for Travolta, the
movie also serves up a couple of his siblings among a group of incredibly annoying singing waiters and waitresses (yeah, singing waiters are supposed to be annoying; doesn’t make them funny, though). Emitting falsetto shrieks much of the time, Seth Green makes a nuisance of himself as Dan and Charlie’s protege, while Lori Loughlin just simpers along as a translator.
“The Blind Side” one of the season’s bests By ROBERT GRUBAUGH Of The Edge After the “New Moon” hoopla finally subsided, right around Thanksgiving Day, audiences were finally able to see “The Blind Side,” an excellent film that combined strong acting, football, and the feel-good moral righteousness that we all need in our lives around this time of year. It drove the movie straight to the top of the box office, a spot it hadn’t seen at all in its whole first week of release. The movie is based on the true events in the early life of Michael Oher, a starting offensive lineman for this year ’s Baltimore Ravens, and the Good Samaritan family that saved him from a life on the streets of Memphis, the Tuohys. “Big Mike” Oher (newcomer Quinton Aaron who, I was shocked to learn, lost over a hundred pounds to play this lead role) was a kid that had no home when Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) convinced her husband, Sean

(Tim McGraw), to pull over the family car one night when they saw him walking down the street in a rainstorm. As a high school freshman, Oher had limited reading and writing skills, having never been properly educated in his life. Sean and Leigh Anne invite Michael into their home and share their prosperity (he owns a ton of Taco Bell franchises) by helping him gain entrance into the same private school that their own children attend. Collins Tuohy (Lily Collins) and her tiny
brother, S.J. (Jae Head), welcome their new brother almost without any reservation. Michael’s bond with S.J. is particularly strong and the two forge a devotion that is based on mutual protection they offer each other from bullies that might attack their size or mental acuity. Their scenes together make the comedy really pop in what would otherwise be an overly-dramatic film. When I was cheering on my Indianapolis Colts in their game against the Ravens earlier in November, I found myself chuckling when Oher found himself on the wrong side of a holding penalty. It didn’t track with the positive message of the movie, but in the world of the NFL a tug on the old jersey just seems to creep up on the very best of players every once in a while. It certainly wasn’t in the game plan of Leigh Tuohy, his adoptive mother and mentor. Bullock knocks her role out of the park with a shockingly strong portrayal of a brave woman, secure in her own skin (and such pretty skin), and
supremely confident in the way she’s raised her children and kept her family safe, healthy, and able to choose the right thing from the easy thing. This is Bullock’s third film of 2009 (along with The Proposal and All About Steve) and definitely the best of the lot. I also find myself wondering why Tim McGraw doesn’t act more. He consistently turns out spectacular work and I’ve enjoyed every performance he’s given so far. Oscar winner Kathy Bates has a small, smart-mouthed part as Oher ’s private tutor Miss Sue, one of the primary factors in Michael’s eventual school improvement that led him to football, a benefit where he further excelled. One of the top SEC recruits of the last ten years, Oher played for Ole Miss until he was drafted just this Spring into the National Football League. That success aside, “The Blind Side” features a message of kinship and the act of giving, one that would serve all people to hear with both their ears and their hearts.

Decorating helpers Say “Happy Holidays” without the fuss By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge Time to pull all those boxes of decorations out of the attic or the basement and unpack all your Christmas decor to give your house that perfect festive touch. If you are like most, you too struggle with untangling all the lights, coming up with enough extension cords and places to plug in, and then ways to hide all of the hardware to make your decorations look just right. There are a number of items now on the market to assist decorators with those very issues. Whether you are a pro decorator or a novice that just wants to add a little something to keep from being called “Scrooge,” you are sure to find what you need to make the job easier and neater. One of the holiday helpers on the market is the Coleman Cable Cool Colors outdoor extension cord. Typically we think to purchase green extension cords for our outdoor lighting to blend in with what is left of our grass. However, I am probably not the first person who tripped over the extension cord that I just placed in the yard due to it blending into the landscape. These cords are 12 gauge, 15-amp cords that are made with brilliant neon colored gloss on a flexible weather resistant vinyl SJTW jacket. The cool colors help prevent loss or theft, as they are easily identifiable. For safety, the power cord end has a clear molded indicator light that lets you know when the power is connected. Another innovative product is the Transparent Cord Protector. Whether your light cords need to cross a walk way indoors or out, this is a fantastic solution to keep accidents from occurring or your projects from being ruined. What’s special about this transparent cord cover? It can
be used for holiday lights, indoor lighting, walkways, or patios. It is GSA approved and blends with any floor or carpet. The protector cuts easily to any length with utility knife. Applies to any flooring surface with double sided tape or Velcro sticky back tape. Available in 5 feet, 10 feet and 25 feet lengths and fits over bundles up to 1/2 inch in diameter. A sensible answer for your multiple plug-in issues is the Socket Sense Adjustable Surge Protector. It is a fantastic solution for the many types of plug-in styles offered today. What’s special about this power strip? It offers movable sockets that expand or contract easily to adjust to the fit you need. The fully adjustable surge protector accommodates six plugs or adapters at a time and expands from 13 inches to 18 inches. The RoHS CompliantSockets are angled at 45 degrees for added ease. You can visit http://cableorganizer. com/socket-sense/ for a virtual demonstration. A number other innovative and useful items are also available, such as the “Amer Tac Westek Touch Dimmer” which is a switch for your Christmas tree, in the shape of an ornament that hangs on the tree, the has three levels of brightness or will turn the lights on or off. It is easy to install and retails for under $20. You also can get the “Snowmen Decorative Power Strip Cover” that is a clever and charming way to disguise those ugly power strips that are located under your tree. The cute disguise fits any standard-size indoor power strip. It collapses quickly to take up minimal storage space and is made out of sturdy plastic to last for many holiday seasons. It retails for under $13. You can find any or all of these items at www.cableorganizer.com.

Family Focus Outerwear brands turn up the heat NEW YORK (AP) — What’s hot in winter-sport outerwear this season isn’t flamboyant design or eye-popping colors: It really comes down to more practical pieces — sometimes coupled with high-tech tricks — to keep you warm. The idea is that these jackets, fleeces and shells take you from mountain to Main Street, summit to city and everywhere inbetween. Bill Inman, apparel business director at Merrell, doesn’t even break it down into weekday and weekend wear. It’s all one and the same for most people now when it comes to a winter jacket, he says. “We’re stressing versatility, which means value. ... You get that with the right fabrication and styling,” Inman says. “We’re not doing a crazy colorblock ski look or a traditional alpine ski look. Those are downtrending as people look for stuff that doesn’t look like you just got off the lift.” Outerwear tends to not be as trendy as ready-to-wear because people expect their winter jackets to last for several years — something that is actually helping keeps sales steady in the economic downturn, says Patagonia’s vice president of design and merchandising Damien Huang. “Outerwear is useful. It’s not immune to the recession, but people still want to stay warm and dry.” But there’s no excuse for bulky, puffy cocoon-style coats or any shell that’s not waterproof, says Huang, and it’s OK to demand lightweight, layering pieces that are versatile not only in design but also in a variety of weather conditions. The technology to make these types of pieces has been around a few years, but consumers are really taking note now because the fashion element has improved, he says. “Consumers have the education about product. They want stuff that performs well. Everything has to perform,” adds J.D. Hendley, senior apparel director at Oakley. One new twist is harnessing all the wired gadgetry out there, from jackets with carved out spots in the fabric for iPods and headphones to Mountain Hardwear ’s Ardica Enabled Apparel with its own rechargeable battery pack that sends heat through the jacket. W h a t ’ s n e w i n o u t e r w e a r, according to insiders: —BOARDER INFLUENCES. Professional snowboarders are riding a mini wave of celebrity, with some getting their own branded clothing lines. (Examples include Shaun White for Burton, Gretchen Bleiler for Oakley and Torah Bright for Roxy.) Skiers, snowshoers, snowmobilers and even snow bunnies are being influenced by boarders with longer jackets, graphics and the soft shellfleece sweatshirt combination, says Hendley of Oakley. At the same time, however, very youthful
December 10, 2009
prints that were the hallmark of snowboarders a few years ago are on their way out. Runway styles serve as inspiration for jacket designers too: Look for the metallic trims, rivets, oversized zippers and chunky hardware that created the rocker look that dominated fall fashion. — N E W S H A P E S . Wi n t e r outerwear should be warm but not hot, and you want to stay dry, keeping both perspiration and snow at bay. The silhouette probably has more to do with those things than you think. The vest is a popular part of the layered look; it can be topped by a waterproof pullover (another trend) and be worn with a windproof fleece underneath. Even with the layers, the overall look is slimmer with jackets taking a more athletic cut for men and a feminine one for women, says Merrell’s Inman. The princess seams are gone from most womenswear. Oakley introduced a oneshoulder bib pant, which moves the waistband higher, keeping snow out if you fall, and the single strap can be worn tighter to keep the pant from sagging. — B O D Y H E AT. “ C o m f o r t mapping” is an industry term to explain the patchwork of materials you’ll see on the insides of jackets. “The idea is you can be highly affected by localized sensation,” s a y s Ti m m S m i t h , p r o d u c t

G o r e & Associates, which makes the GoreTex fabrics that are used by many manufacturers. “Anyone who has gone outside on a cold day knows that toes and fingers seem like they freeze first, so they need to be treated differently than the torso.” It’s becoming the norm to line leaner neck and shoulder areas
with fleece, while using a lighter laminate fabric around the middle, which tends to have more body fat (an insulator) and more airspace in the jacket silhouette, which traps in warm air, Smith explains. The area just below the ribs and near the kidneys — basically the body’s core — often feels warmer than anywhere else, so Mountain

The Arts Contemporary plans new exhibit
The Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis is pleased to present the international group exhibition For the blind man in the dark room looking for the black cat that isn’t there, organized by Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis Chief Curator Anthony Huberman. The first large-scale collective exhibition since the Contemporary’s inaugural show in 2003, For the blind man … is on view throughout the entirety of the museum’s exhibition spaces from September 11, 2009 to January 3, 2010. For the blind man … celebrates the speculative nature of knowledge and proposes that curiosity matters more than understanding. While the artists featured in the exhibition all share our common urge to understand the world, they are also eager to keep art separate from explanation. As speculations, the works on view each allude to a search for knowledge, while insisting that art is not a code that needs cracking. Embodying a spirit of playful non-knowledge, unlearning, and productive confusion, For the blind man … is dedicated to the inquisitive mind and to the pleasures of finding our way in the dark. Sarah Crowner re-inserts into circulation the two issues of the 1917 journal The Blind Man (edited by Marcel Duchamp, Henri-Pierre Roché, and Beatrice Wood), offering copies on sale at the museum’s front desk at the publication’s original cover price of 10 and 15 cents. In search of an explanation of a painting, Marcel Broodthaers interviews his cat in a recording from 1970 in his Musée d’Art Moderne, Département des Aigles. For their 16mm film Flash in the Metropolitan (2006), Nashashibi/Skaer (Rosalind Nashashibi and Lucy Skaer) wander through the Metropolitan Museum of Art with the lights off, using a strobe light to briefly illuminate portions of small sculptural statues and vessels, as if the long story of the Metropolitan was reduced to a series of short poetic haikus. A 17th century anonymous illustration of a Renaissance Wunderkammer, or curiosity cabinet, reminds visitors that museums have long been places where people enjoy discovering extraordinary things that they do not understand. Peter Fischli and David Weiss struggle to understand the world, embracing large metaphysical and ethical questions about the human condition. In The Right Way (1983), dressed in rat and bear costumes, they walk through the infinitely beautiful Swiss countryside, through streams and glaciers, stopping to consider existential questions along the way.

The Arts Artistic adventures JAC will open new exhibit “Eye Witness” is a collection by local artist James K. Schmidt at the Jacoby Arts Center now through January 10, 2010 at 627 E. Broadway in Alton. “Eye Witness” is an exhibition by James K. Schmidt, who works from his studio in Elsah, and who is known for seeing patterns in nature through the lens of a classic Modernist, distilling organic forms into a dynamic whole. He is a MFA graduate of Cranbrook Academy of Art, a professor of Architecture and Design at Cornell University and Professor Emeritus of Fine Art at Principia College. Schmidt has exhibited internationally and his works of art are in numerous public and private collections. “Eye Witness records that which has inspired me to put into visual form facets of personal discovery,” says Schmidt. “Art of the last century has been concerned with aesthetic reconstruction. The visual world, with emphasis on natural phenomena, is what has given me inspiration for the particular assemblage of imagery. By eye witness I mean responding to what one actually sees and the background associations that this seeing experience brings to thought. Art clarifies and gives fresh meaning to what is often unnoticed. It helps us recognize similarities and propels continuous exploration.” This exhibition includes paintings in oil and acrylic, pastel drawings, plaster castings, textile designs, and video art, many of which have not been seen.
Kemper Museum to host Sharon Lockhart exhibit Los Angeles-based conceptual artist Sharon Lockhart creates films and photographs that are at once rigorously formal and deeply humanistic, meticulously observing the details of everyday life while also probing the limits and intersections between the two mediums. As much as Lockhart’s photographs
reveal cinematic qualities of staging and casting, so too do her films frequently engage a static camera and angles that recall photographic practices. In February 2010 the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum will present Sharon Lockhart: Lunch Break, a one-person exhibition showcasing the artist’s most recent series. Inspired by the shifting world economy and its effect on American labor, Lockhart spent a year observing and engaging workers at the Bath Iron Works, a major shipyard and U.S. Navy supplier located in Bath, Maine. The resulting works, collectively titled Lunch Break, include two large-scale film installations and three distinct sets of photographs that together explore the daily routines and social activities of workers during their time away from production. The centerpiece of the exhibition is the titular film Lunch Break, which consists of a single, slowmoving tracking shot down a long and seemingly endless interior corridor. To create the piece, Lockhart recorded a ten-minute walk-through — her first use of a mobile camera — then employed digital technology to stretch the length to eighty minutes. This e x t re m e s l o w m o t i o n i m b u e s ordinary lunchtime activities — eating, reading, talking and sleeping — with an almost baroque sense of anticipation, yet the film ultimately refuses cathartic narrative closure. The result is a meditative reflection, devoid of sentiment, on aspects of factory life that typically remain hidden from outside view. By contrast, the second film, Exit, is divided into five sections — one for each day of the workweek — and depicts workers as they depart the complex at the end of their shifts. Employing a static camera, the film recalls Louis Lumière’s historic Leaving the Lumière Factory (1895), a fortysix-second black-and-white short that is widely considered to be the first true motion picture. Yet Lockhart subtly reverses Lumière’s viewpoint. Rather than surveil workers as they stream toward an exterior camera, she films from
Lunch Break is provided by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts ;James M. Kemper, Jr.; the David Woods Kemper Memorial Foundation; the Missouri Arts Council, a state agency; Helen Kornblum; and members of the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum. A fully illustrated color catalog will accompany the exhibition and will be distributed by the University of Chicago Press. The catalog includes essays by Eckmann and Matthias Michalka as well as an analysis of Lockhart’s creative process through an interview with artist James Benning. Also featured will be previously unpublished photographs by Lockhart that document, illustrate and recall workers’ social activities. SHARON LOCKHART Born in Norwood, MA, in 1964, Lockhart earned a BFA degree from the San Francisco Art Institute in 1991 and an MFA from the Art Center College of Design in
within factory grounds, focusing on workers’ backs as they seemingly stage their own exits. The first of the three series of photographs centers on workers’ lunch boxes, emphasizing the ways in which stickers, labels, contents and other minute details suggest the personalities of their owners. A second series is devoted to the independent businesses that exist within the factory — makeshift booths where workers sell hot dogs, coffee and other items to their colleagues. The third series consists of carefully composed images of workers lingering around lunch tables, at once recalling and revising historical traditions of group portraiture. Sharon Lockhart: Lunch Break is organized by Sabine Eckmann, Ph.D., director and chief curator of the Kemper Art Museum. The exhibition will travel to the Colby College Museum of Art in Maine.

Pasadena in 1993. Her early work took frequent inspiration from 1970s art cinema. For the photo series Auditions (1994), Lockhart enlisted Los Angeles schoolchildren to restage the first-kiss scene from François Truffaut’s Small Change (1976). Her debut film, the short Khalil, Shaun, A Woman under the Influence (1994), reenacted moments from John Cassavetes’ A Woman under the Influence (1974). Subsequent projects have revealed an almost ethnographic interest in “foreign” cultures, often blurring distinctions between documentary and intervention. Goshogoaka (1997) depicts a girls’ basketball team in rural Japan executing a series of highly choreographed drills. Teatro Amazonas (1999) focuses on an opera house audience in Manaus, Brazil, while an offcamera choir sings minimalist compositions. NO (2003) records the meticulous workday of Japanese farmers Yoko and Masa Ito.

It’s the place to go for skiing By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge Although I have never donned a pair of snow skis myself, Christmas break seems to be the time when the snow bunnies and daredevils head to the slopes for some winter fun. Maybe you are one of those packing your parka or possibly still thinking about what is possibly still available at the resorts. Here are some ideas for some of the most popular locations. Ski.com lists the top 10 resorts as: 1. Snowmass 2. Breckenridge 3. Beaver Creek 4. Vail 5. Park City 6. Aspen 7. Steamboat Springs 8. Deer Valley Resort 9. Whistler Blackcomb 10. Telluride Snowmass, Colorado The breathtaking and exhilarating scenery is maybe the greatest reason to visit Snowmass, Colo., but they certainly are not the only ones. The resort is famous for its endless terrain with over 3,000 acres with tons of snow, 300 inches to be exact. The popularity of the resort has seen a resurgence with the addition of two new gondolas, a new highspeed six pack and other onmountain improvements. It also is the host to an expert terrain park and the unbelievable steeps in KT Gully, Hanging Valley and the Cirque. Not only is the skiing a reason to head to Snowmass, but the fine dining and the huge selection of
December 10, 2009
slopeside shops and hotels make it a destination for the entire family. Aspen is just nine miles away. Breckenridge, Colorado Breckenridge, Colo. may be second on the list, but that doesn’t make it second rate. The ski vacation destination is first class in the skiing options, lodging, dining and shopping it has to offer. Breckenridge offers amazing versatility on the slopes and off. With almost 2,000 acres of deep-powder on four mountains, the skiing options for every type of skier abound. A high-speed lift now services the expert run that begins at the 12,677foot summit. That same lift also is interconnected with 16 other lifts and four high-speed quads to assure short lift lines and less crowding on
the slopes. Breckenridge lodging options vary from ski-in ski-out hotels and condos to private homes. Don’t forget that Breckenridge is family friendly with the expanded Kids’ Castle, which offers a great beginners’ program and a convenient drop-off for parents on the way to the slopes. If skiing isn’t the kids idea of fun, they will love the indoor waterslide and climbing wall in the recreation center. Beaver Creek, Colorado Rounding out the top three is Beaver Creek, Colo. Maybe they should attribute their favoritism to the average of 300 days of annual sunshine that brightens up the 1,825 acres of perfectly groomed terrain. Beaver Creek puts the emphasis on making sure they do what they can to anticipate your every whim, and meet it to the best of their ability. The beautiful alpine village that sits at the mountain base offers heated walk-ways and escalators to the slopes and around the village. This will make it easy for you to make your way to the fantastic dining options, pampering spas and the abundant performing arts offered. For more information on any of the ski destinations or to price a ski package, visit www.ski.com. You can also find the current weather and mountain stats on their site.

Travel Travel briefs Grand Canyon to change backpacker permit system FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — The Grand Canyon National Park is changing the system for getting backcountry permits. Starting Feb. 1, 2010, the park will consider only written requests for backcountry permits four months in advance of trips. The requests can be sent in by fax, by mail or hand-delivered, but all requests received each day by 5 p.m. will then be randomly ordered by computer for consideration for permits. The park said on its Web site that the procedural change means applicants “will no longer be able to walk in and have their requests receive immediate consideration.” The old system was perceived as giving locals and those with the means to travel to the park to submit their requests an advantage over those trying to fax requests in. The earliest you can get a backcountry permit for the canyon is four months in advance of a trip, so under the new system, the first day a request can be submitted in writing for a trip taking place in June would be Feb. 1, according to the park Web site. The Arizona Daily Sun reported that one out of every two people who seeks permission to camp most places below the rim is denied because space is limited and there are so many applications. Eventually the park plans to move to an online reservation system. Also, the Park Service is not allowing any more individuals to establish commercial backpacking businesses until the agency sorts out a larger plan for the backcountry.
Charlie Chaplin museum planned for Switzerland G E N E VA ( A P ) — C h a r l i e Chaplin’s last home in Switzerland will be turned into a permanent place of pilgrimage for fans of the actor who immortalized the “Little Tramp,” one of his sons said. The mansion at Corsier-surVevey by the shores of Lake Geneva was chosen over Los Angeles and London as the site of the first museum dedicated to the screen legend, said Michael Chaplin. The museum has been a decade in the planning and will be finished within two years, he said. It will feature objects from Chaplin’s life and displays chronicling his rise from the music halls of his native London to stardom in Hollywood’s silent movie era and beyond. “He was very happy here because he had a family life,” Michael Chaplin said of the vintner’s chateau where his father lived for more than 20 years and raised eight children
December 10, 2009
until his death in 1977. The actor whose film classics include “The Immigrant,” “City Lights” and “The Great Dictator,” w a s b a r re d f ro m t h e U n i t e d Stated in 1952 during the peak of McCarthyism over suspicions he harbored communist sympathies. He returned briefly two decades later to receive an honorary Academy Award for his life work. The mansion, with its extensive gardens and woodland area, was home to brothers Michael and Eugene Chaplin, and their families for over 10 years. “All the time we were here we had people coming to the door asking if they could walk around,” said Michael, 63, the actor ’s fifth of 11 children. “Sometimes whole buses would come and we’d open up the gate to let them walk around the park. That put the seed of the idea in our minds that when we left it should become a museum.” But neighbors opposed to the plan, and it languished in local politics for years before authorities accepted the $50 million project. The actor’s son credited chocolate maker Nestle, which is based nearby, with helping to get approval. He said the old wine cellars with their vaulted ceilings will be used to evoke the Victorian-era London of Chaplin’s youth. Hollywood will be recreated in the form of film sets in two annex buildings, with a giant recreation of the machine from
“Modern Times” that Chaplin used to portray the desperation of factory workers. The displays will also include footage from his movies and holographic narrators. The main building will feature his father’s library, the piano at which he composed film scores and a desk where he wrote his autobiography and scripts for two of his movies.

Opening of Sleeping Giant Ski Area in Wyoming delayed CODY, Wyo. (AP) — A lack of snow and delays in construction of a new chair lift has pushed back the opening of the Sleeping Giant Ski Area one week to Dec. 4. Work crews for more than a year have been overhauling the ski area with the goal of having it open for Thanksgiving weekend. The ski area’s east chair lift is ready, but work continues on the new west chair, according to the Casper Star-Tribune. The ski area is located a few miles from the east entrance to Yellowstone National Park. Park County commissioners recently allocated $38,000 in federal forest reserve money to the nonprofit ski area in the Shoshone National Forest to clear dead trees.

Travel Travel briefs Holiday tours of Wisconsin governor’s mansion set MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The governor’s mansion in Maple Bluff will be open to the public seven days in December for holiday tours. The first 30-minute tours are Dec. 9 and they end Dec. 19. Each tour includes a brief history of the executive residence, which is decorated with six Wisconsinthemed trees.

Another represents Nigerian heritage in Wisconsin, one celebrates the diversity of the state’s 72 counties and another features ornaments made by fourth graders based on their favorite holiday movies.
New summer music fest planned for Churchill Downs L O U I S V I L L E , K y. ( A P ) — Churchill Downs, the home of the Kentucky Derby, will become a stomping ground for some of the country’s best known musicians next summer. The three-day music festival will feature more than 65 band, including Bon Jovi, Kenny Chesney, and the Dave Matthews Band. Officials with Churchill Downs Inc., the parent company of the racetrack, said the festival is called “HullabaLOU” and is set for next July 23-25. It will feature classic rock, county, adult contemporary and bluegrass musicians on five stages throughout the sprawling 147-acre facility. It is envisioned to be an annual event. Churchill has hosted rock’n’roll royalty at the historic track in recent years with performances by the Rolling Stones and The Police. The track has been aggressively looking for alternative source of revenue to augment its income from horse racing.

Bringing The Golden Door Spa home By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge The Golden Door Spa is one of the most famous luxury spas in the world. The original location is in Escondido, Calif. Along with the elaborate spa services offered, the Golden Door is also known for the famous health cuisine that they offer. Chef Dean Rucker came to the Golden Door in 2000, and has received raves for his inspired, bold and innovative cuisine. His main focus is on lean proteins, whole grains, fresh vegetables and other wholesome foods which have become some of the most sought-after recipes. The second offering by The Golden Door, “Golden Door Cooks at Home” is offering recipes with ingredients that can be found in most pantries. You’ll also get tips from Chef Rucker ’s popular cooking classes, information on how to boost flavor healthfully, recipes for easy-to-make sauces and vinaigrettes, and sidebars on fitness, nutrition and other tantalizing glimpses into Golden Door experience. Following are some sample recipes from the book: Adobo-Marinated Grass-Fed Flank Steak with Spinach Salad and Roasted Poblano Dressing Adobo seasoning is a mixture of onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, cumin, oregano, and cayenne. It is absolutely delicious on beef, poultry, and grilled vegetables. It can be found in the Mexican or Latino foods section of many supermarkets, but my favorite version of adobo seasoning is at Penzeys Spices (see Resources, page 283). Note that for this recipe you can use the grill to roast the red bell and poblano peppers for the salad and dressing. Serves 4 For the steak 1 pound grass-fed flank, skirt, or strip steak (about 1/2 inch thick) 1/4 cup fresh orange juice (from 1 orange) 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 1 lime) 2 teaspoons adobo seasoning 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves 1 garlic clove, chopped 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt For the pickled red onions 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced (1/4 cup)
December 10, 2009
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar Pinch of sugar For the spinach salad 2 ears corn, husked Olive oil, grapeseed, or canola spray Roasted Poblano Dressing (below) 1/4 small to medium jícama (5 ounces) Juice of 1/2 lime 12 cups baby spinach leaves, washed and dried (about 12 ounces) 1 large red bell pepper, grillroasted (page 74), peeled, seeded, and diced, or 1/2 cup diced storebought, drained, roasted red peppers 1 medium avocado, cut in 1/2-inch dice 1 ounce queso fresco, crumbled (1/4 cup) Kosher salt (optional) Fresh cilantro leaves, for serving Prepare the steak. Place the steak in a shallow pan just big enough to hold it. Whisk together the orange juice, lime juice, adobo spice, cilantro, and garlic. Pour over the steak and turn the steak over to fully coat with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Prepare the pickled red onions. Place the red onion in a small bowl and add the sherry vinegar and sugar. Stir to combine. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 8 hours. Prepare a medium-high grill or set a grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly spray the corn all over with oil and place on the grill. Grill until nicely marked on all sides, turning with tongs as necessary, about 5 minutes total. Remove from the grill and let cool. When cool enough to handle, use a sharp knife to cut the kernels from the ears and set them aside. Discard the ears. Prepare the roasted poblano dressing. Remove the steak from the marinade and season on both sides with salt. Grill until the outside has nice grill marks and the center is pink, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing. While the steak is resting, finish the spinach salad. Peel the jícama and cut it into 1/2-inch dice; you should have 1 cup. Toss with the lime juice and set aside. Put the spinach in a large bowl. Add the roasted peppers, the reserved corn, and the jícama. Add the avocado and queso fresco. Pour

Serves 4 2 large shallots (about 4 ounces total), peeled, trimmed, and quartered 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar 4 sprigs fresh thyme 1 small pomegranate 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Pinch of kosher salt, or to taste Pinch of freshly ground black pepper, or to taste 6 cups loosely packed field greens or mesclun 1 firm fuyu persimmon, sliced into thin wedges 2 tangerines, peeled (see page 51) and sliced crosswise 1/4-inch thick Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a nonreactive, ovenproof skillet just big enough to hold the shallots, combine the shallots, vinegar, and thyme sprigs. Cover the pan with aluminum foil and roast until the shallots are softened and the vinegar is reduced by half, about 40 minutes. If the vinegar is not sufficiently reduced and the shallots are still a bit firm, remove the foil and continue to roast, uncovered, for 5 to 10 minutes. While the shallots are roasting, prepare a large bowl of cold water. Cut the pomegranate in half
lengthwise. Holding one half under the water, use your fingers to gently remove the seeds from the fruit. Most of them will float to the top. Repeat with the other half. Drain the seeds well, removing any pith left over. Set aside 1/3 cup. (Store any remaining seeds in the refrigerator for another use.) When the shallots are ready, remove the pan from the oven and carefully remove the foil. Let cool for 15 minutes. Remove and discard the thyme. Transfer the shallots and vinegar to a blender. Add 1/2 cup water and blend until the mixture is smooth but slightly chunky, 8 to 10 seconds. Add the olive oil and blend for 5 more seconds. Add the salt and pepper. Toss the greens with 1/4 cup of the dressing and salt and pepper, if desired. Pile the greens high in center of each of four plates. Scatter the persimmon wedges, tangerine slices, and pomegranate seeds over each salad. Drizzle with additional dressing and serve.

Dining Delights Nothing says "happy holidays" like cookies NEW YORK (AP) – Start the holiday cookie season off right with these rich molasses cookies. The deep flavor of the molasses is complemented by the sweet apricot jam. Be sure to refrigerate the dough as directed before baking; this makes it easier to handle when scooping. MOLASSES OATMEAL JAMMIES Start to finish: 1 1/2 hours (30 minutes active) Makes 36 cookies 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened 1 cup granulated sugar, plus 1 cup for rolling 1 egg 1/2 cup molasses 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda 1 cup rolled oats 10-ounce jar apricot jam In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter and the 1 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg, molasses and vanilla. Mix until combined. Set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda. Add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until thoroughly combined. Add the oats, then mix again. Refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour to make it easier to handle. Toward the end of chilling, heat the oven to 350 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicon baking mat. Alternatively, work in batches with 1 baking sheet, being sure to allow it to cool after baking each round. Fill a shallow bowl or pie pan with the 1 cup of rolling sugar. Scoop the cookie dough using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop. Roll each ball in the sugar, then arrange them on the prepared baking sheet leaving a couple inches between the cookies for spreading. Use your thumb to dimple the center of each cookie, then fill the depression with a bit of apricot jam. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Store in a single layer in an airtight container. ••• Need a lighter treat before the onslaught of holiday sweets? Try these naturally lower-fat chocolate meringues.

Dining Delights Cookies Continued from Page 25 Heat the oven to 250 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until they hold soft peaks. In a small saucepan over mediumhigh, heat the sugar and water, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Continue to cook until the mixture reaches 240 F on a candy or instant read thermometer. With the mixer on high, pour the sugar syrup into the egg white mixture, pouring it in a steady stream down the side of the bowl. Continue to beat until the meringue cools, then use a silicone spatula to fold in the chopped chocolate. Use a pastry bag to pipe stars or use a tablespoon to dollop the mixture onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake until dry to the touch, about 45 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet and store in an airtight container. PECAN BISCOTTI Start to finish: 1 hour Makes 30 cookies 3 eggs 1 cup packed brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 2 cups whole pecans Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat 2 baking sheets with baking or cooking spray. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the eggs, brown sugar, salt and vanilla until pale and thick. Fold in the flour and baking powder, then the pecans. Transfer half the dough to each of the prepared baking sheets. Using wet hands, form each half into a log about 3 inches wide. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the loaves are golden and firm. Let the loaves cool a bit so they are easier to handle. Lower the oven to 325 F. Slice the biscotti on a slight diagonal into cookies about 3/4 inch thick. Arrange the cookies on the baking sheets, bottoms (not on a cut side) down. Bake for another 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool on a wire cooling rack before transferring to an airtight container. CARAMEL PEANUT MELT BARS Start to finish: 2 hours Makes 16 bars For the dough: 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened 1 cup sugar 1 egg 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour For the caramel: 2 cups sugar 1/2 cup water 1 cup heavy cream 1 teaspoon lemon juice Pinch salt 1 1/2 cups lightly salted shelled peanuts
December 10, 2009
For the chocolate sauce: 1 cup heavy cream 8 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped Heat the oven to 375 F. Coat a 9by-9-inch baking pan with baking or cooking spray. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on medium to beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, salt and vanilla. Add the flour and mix until just incorporated. Press the dough into the prepared pan. Bake until golden and firm, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool in the pan. Meanwhile, make the caramel. In a medium saucepan over medium, combine the sugar and water, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Bring to a gentle boil and cook until the sugar reaches a medium brown, occasionally swirling the pan to prevent burning at the edges. While the sugar cooks, in a small saucepan over medium-low, heat the cream until just warm. Once the sugar is medium brown, add the lemon juice and salt, then gradually whisk in the warm cream. The mixture will bubble vigorously. Scatter the peanuts evenly over the cookie crust, then pour the caramel sauce over them. Let cool for 10 minutes, or until the caramel sets. Once the caramel has set, make the chocolate sauce. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, heat the cream until boiling. Add the chocolate and let sit for 1 minute. Stir with a wooden spoon until completely smooth and glossy, then pour over the caramel and peanuts. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
Cut into 16 bars. Store the bars in a single layer in the refrigerator. COFFEE TOFFEE SANDIES Start to finish: 3 hours (30 minutes active) Makes 30 cookies 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened 3/4 cup light brown sugar 1/4 cup granulated sugar 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules 1 tablespoon hot water 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt 1 cup toffee pieces In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter and both sugars until light and creamy. In a small bowl, combine the coffee and hot water, stirring until dissolved. Add the coffee to the butter and sugar mixture, beating until well combined. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt. Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix just until all the flour is blended. Do not over mix. It should be crumbly. Add the toffee pieces and mix using a wooden spoon or silicone spatula. Divide the dough in half, placing each piece onto a sheet of plastic wrap. Squeeze it together into a log using the plastic wrap to help shape it. Wrap the logs in the plastic wrap and refrigerate several hours, or until well chilled. When ready to bake, heat the oven to 325 F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Slice each log into rounds about 3/8 of an inch thick. Squeeze any crumbles back together. Arrange the
cookies 1 inch apart on the baking sheet; they do not spread. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cookies
just begin to tan on the bottom and start to set. Cool on the baking sheet and store in an airtight container.

Dining Delights OK, we admit these are our opinions and you certainly should form your own, but it is nice to have a guide of places to eat when you are undecided or want to try something new or different. To send us a suggestion of a restaurant to try, e-mail theedge@ edwpub.net
The food is good at Bully’s, but a little foo-foo for a barbecue place. The prices are a little more than typical barbecue fare. Good for business lunch or dinner and nice servings.
54th Street Bar and Grill Edwardsville 4 stars Great menu selection, something for everyone. Prices are very reasonable and have not had a bad selection yet. Remember to get your frequent diner card stamped when ordering an entree so you can get one free when your card is full.
Pantera’s Pizza Edwardsville 2 1/2 stars Still some of the best pizza around, but the decor needs a bit of updating, along with the dinner ware. The buffet is good if they keep it full, but that can be an issue at times. You better put on your running shoes to get that hot selection before everyone else beats you to it!
Red Robin Edwardsville 2 1/2 stars The bottomless french fries are fantastic, but it basically is a pricey burger place. Service is not super speedy, but food was good and hot. Good group setting.
El Maguey Mexican Restaurant Edwardsville 3 Stars Good chips and salsa start you off with a nice selection of dishes. Authentic Mexican dishes are delivered promptly to your table.
Red Apple Maryville 4 stars The Red Apple is another favorite of our family, whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner. There is a huge menu selection, including Italian, broasted chicken, gyros, sandwiches of all kinds, plate specials, fish selections – fried and broiled, and much more. Service is always impeccable and prices can’t be beat. La Fonda Edwardsville 3 1/2 stars Good food, good service. All you can eat chips and salsa are great complement to their abundant menu. Their rice and beans are excellent also. Bigelo’s Bistro Edwardsville 4 stars Great menu selection of gourmet sandwiches, soups, salads, pastas and more. Great downtown Edwardsville location where you are sure to see someone you know. St. Louis Bread Company Edwardsville/Collinsville 4 1/2 Stars OK men, don’t scoff at the rating, but embrace it! Although men look at it as “chick food,” there is something for every taste on their menu. Fantastic soups, sandwiches, bakery items, coffees, teas, salads, and more. Great place to take a laptop or a book and just kick back and sip a cup of java. Bully’s Smokehouse Edwardsville 3 1/2 stars
December 10, 2009
Jimmy John’s Sandwich Shop Edwardsville 4 stars Where sandwiches are concerned, you can hardly beat a good Jimmy John’s. Their Bootlegger Club and The Big John are some of the
favorites around here. Their cookies are great also, ask them to heat it up. They really are “freaky fast!” Big Daddy’s Edwardsville 3 stars Typical bar fare of appetizers, sandwiches, salads, and wraps round out Big Daddy’s menu. They offer specials on certain days that are a real value. Service can be a bit slow when they are busy. Fiona’s Family Restaurant Edwardsville 4 stars S p e c i a l s e a c h d a y, l o t s o f selections, great breakfast. Service is fast and food is hot. Very friendly environment where you won’t spend a lot to get a great meal. Bella Milano Edwardsville 4 stars Quickly becoming a legend in Edwardsville, Bella Milano is a favorite for many. Great dining atmosphere and lots of good Italian food and drink. Come hungry with loose fitting clothing. Bull and Bear Edwardsville
3 1/2 stars A sports bar and grill with that offers bar side and dining room seating. A selection of appetizers,
M
sandwiches, steaks, baby back ribs, chicken, seafood, pizza, and a kid’s menu make it family friendly, yet a great hangout for friends.
