Community Library celebrates 56 years
C
elebrate The Community Library’s 56th birthday today with a tour of the library at 11:56 a.m. Complimenby: Karen tary hot drinks Bossick and cookies will be served from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The library was started in 1955 when 17 women contributed one dollar each to its founding. They opened The Gold Mine thrift shop in an abandoned miner’s shack and canvassed the community for used goods and books. Then they raised funds with bridge parties, home tours and tea dances, all the while soliciting donations of land and architectural help and construction labor. The library opened in the building that houses The Gold Mine in 1957. It moved to its current site in 1976. To this day it receives no tax dollars, relying on money from The Gold Mine and donations and fund-raising efforts such as The Community Library Tour of Homes in August and the Moveable Feasts party in March. The library must raise about $900,000 above what The Gold Mine contributes this year. “We just want to be mindful of the wonderful things those 17 ladies did for us with this celebration,� said Executive Director Colleen twp Daly.

because I know it so well and I think that while I’m young it’s the time to explore.” Heather also hopes to take her love of the social sciences and anthropology to a career in the United Nations. As a stepping stone, she is part of Wood River’s model U.N. “After college, I really want to travel a lot and to help people. Community service is big to me. I’d like to help people in other cultures and understand why they have problems. I wish I could make everyone happy and I think that if I try, in ways I can. I want to work for the U.N. because you can help in ways like medical assistance or education. I volunteered for the Special Olympics and appreciated everyone’s differences because of the areas that they came from. They were the happiest people that I have ever met.” As part of the model U.N., Heather will be studying and representing Belgium when students from all over the country come together in Berkeley, Calif., this spring. “It’s my first year, so I’m a little nervous, and don’t know what to expect.” At Wood River. Heather has spent most of her time specializing in the social sciences. “I just have a real affinity for them. I love psychology, sociology and current international affairs. I guess you could also call it anthropology, which is the study of how humans originated and how they interact in society. Diversity is really about what people do in different parts of the world. Everywhere you go things can be completely different. Life is always changing and that is what makes it so fascinating.” twp
n estimated 100 students and their families gathered at Hailey Elementary School on Friday evening, Jan. 6 for Family Science Night. The cafeteria was soon bustling with kids of all ages experiencing science principles in fun and active ways. Participants experimented to see if different varieties of Coca-Cola would float, flew hovercrafts made out of balloons and compact discs, created optical illusions, crafted airplanes with no wings, and built structures out of gumdrops and spaghetti noodles. The science night was designed to show kids how much fun studying science can be and also to build interest in the school’s upcoming Science Fair, to be held Jan. 27. Members of the Hailey Elementary School Parent-Teacher Association organized the event and it was sponsored by POWER Engineers. Members of the Wood River High School Girls’ Basketball Team were on hand to help the students with 16 different hands-on activities. Students, their siblings, parents and even grandparents joined together to watch some amazing things happen. A favorite station was one that involved students putting a wooden skewer through a blownup balloon. “The parents would

cringe, expecting the usual loud noise, but when the balloons didn’t pop, I watched their jaws drop in amazement, “ said Wendy Barckholtz, one of the organizers of the event. “It was so fun seeing kids get so actively involved in learning.” “One of our aims was to enable families to work on projects together,” said Kathy Baker, coorganizer. “Thanks to POWER, we had all the supplies right here. No one had to run to the store and try to find materials, and having the high school girls work with the kids made it a really fun multi-generational event.” Baker and Barckholtz hope
that Family Science Night, along with the Science Fair, will become annual events. They also hope to see more family events held at Hailey Elementary, such as Family Read-ins, Math Night, or even Star Parties. “We have a lot of expertise in this Valley in the area of science.” said Barckholtz. “We were thrilled to have POWER Engineers come on as a partner and we’d love to see more members of the community partnering in the education of twp our children.”

my Heather, Wood River High School senior, has been working hard for her money since she was in eighth grade. She takes pride in her ability to by: JONathan handle reKANE sponsibilities and to pay her own way. She has done this by working at the Hailey Coffee Company for the last four years. “It’s something that I wanted to do—to be responsible at a young age,” she said. “Plus, it’s really fun and Carrie is the best boss. She is the hardest working person that I have ever known. Sometimes it can be hard because people can be rude, but for the most part, it’s really enjoyable. It’s taught me a lot about being punctual, about money management, responsibility for getting things done and leadership by training people. I’ve always been a very responsible person and have paid for all my personal expenses – clothes, food, travel, phone bill, car insurance and gas. It’s a little bit unusual. But I’m glad that my parents make me do it and get ready for the real world.” Born in Gig Harbor, Wash., outside of Seattle, Heather moved here when she was eight years old. Her parents were high school sweethearts and most of her family still lives in Washington. “It was a fishing village about the size of Twin Falls and there was a lot of rain but I really enjoyed it. I spent a lot of time on the water and at the beach. My parents honeymooned in Sun Valley and they would visit a lot so we decided to make the move. It was hard because I had never seen so much snow and I had to learn a lot of new sports. When I got here I was very shy and had a little problem meeting people, but they seemed to have come to me. It’s not so fast and busy here and I enjoy that. We’ve also had a lot of time for family bonding. Of course, I wasn’t used to everyone knowing your name and your business here, but I’ve gotten used to it. After college, I’d like to try Seattle for a while

Excerpt from this week’s HITCHED blog: “With 19% of all engagements happening over the holidays, I thought it only fitting that I share with you not only my own proposal, but the stories of five other bridesto-be as well. Emotions seem to run high during an engagement and maybe that’s why almost all of these stories made me tear up a little. Plus, getting to oooh and aahh over gorgeous engagement rings is always so much fun . . .”

briefs Stalking awareness ERC’s Winter World
January is National Stalking Awareness Month, a time to focus on a crime in all 50 states and the District of Columbia that affects 3.4 million victims each year. The Advocates for Survivors of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault offers free “Are you being stalked?” and “Technology Safety” brochures, and “Stop Stalking Safety Kits.” Stalking is “a course of conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to feel fear.” Stalking is serious, often violent, and can escalate over time. “Stalking is prevalent in many domestic violence and sexual assault cases,” said The Advocates’ community education coordinator Trish Tobias. “Stalking often goes unreported because victims may not realize that individual stalking incidents are part of a larger pattern of violence, and how quickly stalking can escalate to an extremely dangerous and possibly life-threatening situation.” Call The Advocates at 208-7884191 or visit www.theadvocatesorg. org to request a free brochure or kit. Quiz: How much do you know about stalking? www.stalkingawarenessmonth.org/stalkingquiz For employers: Free Wed., Jan. 19 “Stalking in the Workplace” webinar: https://cc.readytalk.com/r/aww50j94eok7

ICL avalanche talk
This Wednesday, Jan. 12, Janet Kellam will be offering a free talk on Making the Most of the Avalanche Advisory. We are fortunate to have an excellent avalanche advisory available to us, in large part thanks to Janet Kellam, but are you getting all that you could be from it? Kellam has been working in the avalanche field since 1981, was the lead forecaster for the Sawtooth National Forest Avalanche Center since 1996, and the director from 2001 to 2011 when she retired. For the past four years Kellam has been president of the American Avalanche Association. During Wednesday’s talk, Kellam will spend the lunch hour with us explaining how to get the most out of the Sawtooth National Forest Avalanche Center avalanche advisory. This information not only helps outdoor winter recreationists stay safe, but it also helps steer us toward locations with better skiing conditions! Snowshoers, snowmobilers and skiers can all benefit from the avalanche advisory. There will be time for questions. Attendees are encouraged to bring their lunch with them; however, light snacks will provided.

Simplot gives Black
Simplot Land & Livestock and Western Stockmen’s are helping to kick off the 2011 Trailing of the Sheep Festival celebration with an offer to help sponsor Baxter Black with a $5,000 donation for the 15th annual event. Baxter will perform on Saturday, Oct. 8, 2011, at the Sun Valley Resort. Baxter is described by The New York Times as “…probably the nation’s most successful living poet.” Black can be followed nationwide through his column, National Public Radio, public appearances, television and also through his books, CDs, videos and commercial radio. Baxter lives in Benson, Ariz., between the Gila River and the gila monster, the Mexican border and the Border Patrol, and between the horse and the cow—where the action is. He still doesn’t own a television or a cell phone, and his idea of a modern convenience is Velcro chaps. Everything about Baxter is cowboy—his cartoonish mustache, his personality and his poetry. He makes a living shining a spotlight on the flaws and foibles of everyday cowboy life. He demonstrates that it is the truth in his humor that makes it funny. For more information, visit our website: www.trailingofthesheep.org or call Mary Austin Crofts at 208-7200585.

Blaine County Sheriff Walt Femling to retire •• reflections on sheriff femling •• “Walt certainly had his critics. But I got to know him while working side by side with him for nearly three weeks in the incident command center for the Castle Rock Fire. He was very focused and very concerned about the residents of the North Valley.” – S.V. City Councilman Nils Ribi
“Walt gets into some pretty interesting situations that most sheriffs don’t ever have to worry about, thanks to things like Allen and Company. Every mogul walking around has two to six guys protecting him, depending on how threatened or powerful he feels. So here you have a slew of Suburbans rolling around Sun Valley with the guys inside talking into their wrists. Walt never knows who’s carrying arms, even though he tries. They don’t check in with the sheriff and they’re armed to the teeth.” – Ridley Pearson, detective novelist
“He was one of the most positive influences you could hope for and that’s why I stayed in so long. He taught us that we’re public servants and he taught us that we have to respect the people we deal with in order to gain their respect.” – Patrol Sgt. Brad Gelskey
“He’s someone you naturally look up to—he’s knowledgeable, well-spoken and a great leader with unwavering support for his officers. And he tries hard to develop leaders within the department. He wants everyone to take responsibility and to grow and become a leader.” – Lt. Curtis Miller
W
hen the Secret Service wanted to close down Highway 75 during by: Karen the 5 p.m. Bossick rush-hour traffic, Blaine County Sheriff Walt Femling reared up, seeming somehow taller than his 5-foot-8 inches, and looked the Secret Service in the eye. “You have seven minutes,” he told them as they tried to hammer out the logistics for a visit by then-Vice President Dick Cheney. “We had a stare-down for a few minutes and then they said, ‘You’re the boss,’ ” Femling recalled. Calm and collected, Femling has won plenty of stare-downs during 31 years of enforcing the law in Blaine County. But he has finally come up against an adversary he can’t stare down. Femling will step down on March 1 due to health issues that are stressing his autoimmune system. “I’m going to be fine as long as I take care of myself and reduce my stress,” said Femling, who has been making frequent trips to the University of Utah Medical Center in Salt Lake City. “The medications I’m on are making it difficult to make it through a whole day, and this isn’t a part-time job.” Femling, who will turn 54 in February, didn’t just play cops and robbers as a youngster. He and his brother tagged along with their father, Jerry Femling, a respected FBI agent, as the elder Femling taught police schools and worked with one of

the nation’s top SWAT teams. Walt got to practice firing machine guns and rappelling right alongside the SWAT trainees. He ended up hiring on with the Ketchum Police Department in 1980 after he heard the job posted on KSKI radio while skiing in Sun Valley with fraternity brothers from Washington State University, where he had majored in criminal justice. “After one summer, I said, ‘Wow! This is an unbelievable place—the weather, the outdoor recreation. I’m going to stay,’ ” said Femling, who became Blaine County sheriff seven years later in 1987. As sheriff overseeing 87 staffers, Femling has orchestrated security for some of the world’s most powerful leaders, including Vice President Dick Cheney, presidential candidate John Kerry, the Dalai Lama and British Prime Minister Tony Blair. And he’s dealt with remnants of the Wild West, from cattle
rustlers to water rustlers to ranchers accused of starving their horses. Detective novelist Ridley Pearson, who used Femling as a model for several murder mysteries based in Sun Valley, said he has been a big fan of Femling’s since he watched the sheriff organize dozens of searchers calmly and quickly, keeping them safe as they searched Moonstone Ranch for victims of an airplane crash in a foot of snow in 10-degree weather. “He’s kind of an amazing guy,” Pearson said, citing the sheriff’s stints at the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Va., and his tenure as president of the Western Sheriffs’ Association. “I spent time in Alaska prospecting for gold and I learned to love and be part of the backcountry there,” said Femling. “A lot of it is common sense—not putting people in harm’s way.”

Based on a true story that most Americans are unfamiliar with, The King’s Speech is riveting history as well as a classic story of the bond between a teacher and student.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You and your body are not always on the same team. You have a list of issues and complaints, but your body doesn’t want to listen. Be the first to concede. Listen to your body, and your body will listen to you. By week’s end, you’ll have cultivated a new appreciation for what your body can do. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are determined to contain this sprawling life of yours, with your hundreds of relationships and dozens of interests and responsibilities. Deal with one thing at a time. Once you straighten and clean up your home, you will feel ready to take on deeper levels of organization and personal management. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When two or more people get together to accomplish a goal, conflict is inevitable. It might come sooner, or it might come later, but it will come. That’s why it’s important to make sure you are connected to others and also to keep your emotional bonds strong. This will make it easier to resolve any differences that arise. CANCER (June 22-July 22). A goal can change your life. So before you decide whether or not to embark on a new journey, ask yourself whether or not this new aim truly fits into all the other things going on in your life these days. There is an upside and a downside to setting this intention, and both are worthy of your strong consideration.

around you and confide only in them. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It is important to you that the people around you are happy, though you wisely realize it is seldom that they will all be happy at the same time. Still, you make every attempt to spoil your family, please your boss and deliver more than promised to your customers. Wednesday brings a financial bonus. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Money is less of an issue for you this week, as you realize that attaining it is often a function of mind over matter. There have been times when you made the wrong decision, and it badly affected your finances. You now recognize the error of your ways and choose the attitude that leads to abundance. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Everything is starting to come together for you, and you will get praiseful comments that reflect that this week. Say thank you and smile, even though you inwardly believe that you are still very far from your goal. It is important to celebrate the small victories along the way. THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: Many adventures are to come. Your lack of pretense will endear someone new to you in the next six weeks. You can be very strategic when it comes to your work, and this year you have excellent instincts. You’ll give in to a situation in February only to rule it by the end of March. More respect and better money is your prize. Family additions add interesting twists to your journey. You’ll pick up new skills and maybe even a degree this year. Travel is favored in July. twp

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Say yes to casual invitations, as they will lead to much more. The early week brings an adventure. You will go where you have never been and find something uncannily familiar about the whole scene. It’s because you are among kindred souls. You’ll laugh and create new bonds Thursday through Saturday. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are in a position of authority whether or not you realize it. Young eyes are on you, looking for clues about what to do next. Inexperienced souls count on your guidance and advice. Though you may not feel entirely sure of yourself, you have much wisdom to impart, so don’t hold back. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your positive attitude will alter destiny. If it seems improbable, consider that because of your friendly encouragement, things happen that otherwise would not have happened. You will draw people out and give them the confidence to take risks they were afraid to take before. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). People around you seem to be marching to a different beat from the one that makes your feet move. You are not influenced by the crowd. You do your own thing and find your own way. A wise woman offers guidance on Saturday. It favors you to wait until next week to sign important documents. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You are a student of human nature, and you will learn many lessons on the subject this week. The one who argues with you is more honorable than the one who dodges your questions. You’ll recognize the trustworthy people

Off the slopes… Take advantage of free ski clinics and enjoy free skiing on Blaine County Recreation District Nordic trails on Sunday. Blaine County Recreation district and Sturtevants of Hailey are hosting Free Learn to Ski Clinics from 1 to 3 p.m. at Quigley Nordic east of Hailey. No trails pass is needed for the day and there will be skis available for people to try out free of charge. Call Sturtevants for more information or to register at 788-7847. In addition, there will be free skiing all day on the Galena Lodge trails, the Harriman Trail, North Fork Loop, Prarie Creek Loop, Billy’s Bridge, Lake Creek Trails and Quigley Nordic. The bike path has been getting pretty plastered, especially since it isn’t groomed every day. As a result it can be tough to get a ski edge in on the skating lane if you hit it on the wrong day. The classic rails are skiing nicely, however, as are other Nordic trails. Want a change of pace?

Free ‘Are You Toxic’ workshop at the Y Find out why at a Ketchum Wellness Workshop this Wednesday, Jan. 12 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Y in Ketchum. This informative and life-changing evening explores the topics of toxins in your food, your home and your environment. Are you tired? Have trouble sleeping? Need more energy? Crave sweets? Do you feel like you’re in a “brain fog?� Are you feeling fat or bloated? If you answered yes to any of these, you can learn how to remove impurities absorbed from the food you eat, the air you breathe and the environment you live in. When our health is compromised
we lack the energy needed to perform the daily functions of life. It can put a strain on our finances, our relationships and make us more susceptible to disease. A recent study by the Centers for Disease Control reveals the presence of 116 toxic chemicals in people of all ages. The benefits of nutritional cleansing combined with the convenience of a complete wellness system has given people the ability to change their lives in remarkable ways and has created greater health and safe, lasting weight loss for hundreds of thousands of people.

to love while you’re alive. It’s too by: BALI late after SZABO that. One of life’s sweet spots is the confluence of youth, money and time. Youth simply means strength, vitality, good health and vision. If you can climb the world’s 7 Summits after the age of 60, you’re still young enough. Money is the least important of the three, because you just need enough for the task at hand. (Caution: If living entails independence and freedom, there is usually a price to pay that is not monetary). Few if any of us are saints, imbued with the perfection of wisdom that radiates with every breath and heartbeat. Only in theory can we be that alive. Most of us will settle for a good massage from Zenergy, or a great day on Baldy, or some other satisfaction. For me, living has traditionally entailed travel; specifically, adventure travel. That means a level of disorganization and lack of knowledge that turns even a simple trip into an adventure. Here’s a good case in point. I booked a flight to Algeria to spend a few weeks bathed by the light of North Africa. Unfortunately, I didn’t bother with the formality of a visa, so I got sent back to Rome on the same plane. No sweat, I thought. I’d be back on the next flight. Ha! It was early Wednesday evening. The

cabbie dropped me off near some hotels. The first six I checked were all booked. Now what? It was a Roman holiday—Holy Week. All of Italy was in Rome, visiting the Pope. Lugging two suitcases and a heavy photo bag, after an hour of trudging side streets, I found a small, clean, affordable hotel tucked in somewhere between the Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps. Not bad, and lucky. I was frustrated, irritated with myself, angry at the world, but salvation, Italian-style, was at hand. Here, eating is as sacred as a visit to the Basilica of St. Peter, a salve for what ails you. Manga! It was dinnertime. You don’t have to walk far in Rome to find a neighborhood trattoria. I found mine below street level. A peek inside showed the place was packed full of ordinary folks—no fancy duds or tourists. Local. Loud. Smelled great—nothing romantic, but very functional—the waiter stuck me in a seat and gave me

a look that said, ‘Look what the cat dragged in.’ It was a warm welcome. Some of the patrons even nodded. The jovial waiter took my order of soup and pasta without any notation. The eggdrop soup, straciatella, was pure heaven. The pasta was great and so was the wine. I looked at the label as he poured me a glass. It said ‘EST! EST! EST! It’s an inexpensive white with a good story. In the Middle Ages, the Pope, traveling in the countryside, sent scouts ahead to find suitable food and lodging for the night. On this day, they returned enthused and said, ‘Est! Est! Est!’ or, This is it! His Holiness enjoyed the local wine, and that’s how it got its name. Its the perfect wine for parmigiano cheese. The waiter wrote the tab on the paper tablecloth, and I melted into the night, for a time saved from my anxieties. Those twp were for the ‘morrow.

Arritola places third
By KAREN BOSSICK Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation athletes stepped up to the plate— or the podium--this past week at U.S. National Championships in Rumford, Maine. The Foundation had an athlete on the podium each day of competition, according to Karoline Droege. Mike Sinnott placed second in the Classic Sprint on Jan. 2. And Simi Hamilton placed second in the Freestyle Sprint, while Colin Rodgers won the Freestyle Sprint Qualifiers and the “B” Finals. Olympian Morgan Arritola took third in the Women’s 20-K race and the week’s Class 10-km. race. Coach Rick Kapala said her showing was particularly good, considering since the course didn’t suit her strengths: “It was a flat course with few hills and Morgan really likes hills,” he said. Nicole DeYong came in 9th in the Women’s 20 K and Alexa Turzian, 12th. Reid Pletcher who now races for the University of Colorado was selected to the 2011 World U-23XC Ski Championship Team based on his results at the U.S. Nationals. He will compete in Otepea, Estonia from Jan. 27-31.

femling...........................................................................................................................from pg 6 Femling’s first big case involved a man who got the death penalty for murdering a toddler. A few years later he pursued a Boise postal employee who “went postal” and gunned down two people on Ketchum’s streets. His most frustrating case was that of Sarah Johnson, who was convicted of killing her parents at age 16. The department spent nearly two years “solid” working on the case to make sure every i was dotted properly, only to have it appealed a month ago, Femling grimaced. “Normally, we feel good about closing a case. But I knew Diane and Alan Johnson, and I had to arrest a 16-year-old family member who was in my son’s class in second grade,” he said. Femling has had to deal with growth issues as the county grew from 9,000 residents in the 1980s to 22,000 today. He counts the opening of the $12 million public safety facility two years ago among his accomplishments. He brought law enforcement duties for the cities of Ketchum and Bellevue under the umbrella of the county to save the cities money. He started a Police Activities League (PAL) program
“When I took over as sheriff, we didn’t have a computer or even 24-hour service… And our dispatchers sold drivers licenses and booked inmates.” –Walt Femling Blaine County Sheriff
that pairs 2,000 kids a summer with law enforcement officers on whitewater rafting and hiking outings. And he automated the sheriff’s department and patrol cars. “When I took over as sheriff, we didn’t have a computer or even 24-hour service,” he recalled. “We wrote all our reports
by hand and used a card filing system. And our dispatchers sold driver’s licenses and booked inmates.” Femling insists he is not leaving for another job or leaving Blaine County. He and his wife Jenny hope to do plenty of mountain biking, hiking, fishing, hunting and relaxing in their electricity-free cabin in the Smoky Mountains as he works to regain his health. He is also looking forward to not being called out on anniversaries and birthdays—something that his son Brady, now a mutual funds accountant, and daughter Kacie, an aspiring nonprofit fund-raiser attending her senior year at Chapman University, had to get used to. A member of the Snohomish Tribe, which resides in the Puget Sound area, Femling would like to tackle substance abuse issues in the Indian Nation—an area he calls “underserved.” Locally, he wants to see coalition building continue in such areas as the Community Drug Coalition. “I want to see the community come together to say: How can we make this a healthier community?” he said. twp
How to debunk your junk
T
he Environmental Resource Center and Sawtooth Botanical Garden are joining forces with the Blaine County Teen Advisory Council and the Wood River High School Environmental Club to help our community reduce junk mail. We welcome everyone to Tully’s Coffee and Iconoclast Books in Ketchum, and Hailey Coffee Company in Hailey on Saturday, Jan. 15 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., to help you get junk mail out of your life! Why, you ask? Because 44 percent of junk mail goes into landfills unopened! State and local governments spend hundreds of millions of dollars each year to collect and dispose of junk mail that does not get recycled. Twenty-eight billion gallons of water are wasted to produce and recycle junk mail each year. One-third of all mail delivered in the world is U.S. junk mail (100
billion pieces annually). Eightynine percent of Americans wish to get out of unwanted mail. One hundred million trees are destroyed to make junk mail every year, which creates greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to 3.7 million cars. Eliminating junk mail reduces carbon dioxide emissions, the number of trees cut down, and reduces water consumption. By reducing junk mail, we are preserving our air, soil and water resources—thus protecting our beautiful Wood River Valley. How do we do it? Join us on Jan. 15 learn how. For more information on this event, please contact us (7264333 amber@ercsv.org). This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. Can’t make it? Go online to www.catalogchoice.org or www.dmachoice. org and sign up to reduce your twp junk mail.

Ask the Guys Dear Classified Guys, While I was in college, I did something really stupid. A few friends and I had a bit too much to drink and were getting kind of rowdy. On my way home from a party, I mooned a passing car. It turned out the driver was a police officer in an unmarked car. I was arrested for public indecency and given one month of community service. Now it's six months later, I graduated and I'm applying for a job as a sales manager. I'm afraid this silly incident will hurt my chances, especially if employers ask about prior convictions. Any ideas on how to handle this with potential employers?

Cash: Unlike your drunken
escapade, we suggest that you put your best side forward this time. Carry: I have to say that you had pretty bad luck in mooning a police officer. Most college pranks go unnoticed, but now you have to clean up loose ends! Cash: Okay, enough of the bad puns! The thing to remember is to be up front about your conviction if someone asks. Lying would only cause you additional problems. Carry: Today many employers do background checks prior to hir-

ing. Your failure to disclose a conviction when asked, or lying about the circumstances, could cost you the job. Cash: Of course, that doesn't mean you have to advertise it either. Some companies may never ask you about it. They may simply request a resume and inquire about your qualifications. Carry: However, interviewers have an obligation to the company to inquire about an applicant's fitness for a job. So it's likely that you will encounter a question like, "Have you had any convictions in the last few years?" Cash: When you disclose this on an application, be brief. State
the conviction with a simple explanation that it happened while you were in college. You can discuss it in more detail in the interview, if necessary. Carry: You're applying for a responsible position. Mooning a passing car doesn't speak well in your favor. But you need to take responsibility for your actions. This will help show your honesty and good character. Cash: But I wouldn't worry too much. Since you are applying for a sales position, your interview will most likely focus on your qualifications and outgoing personality. Keep smiling and all will work out in the end!
Monopoly's "Get out of Jail Free" card is a handy one to have in the game. Unfortunately, one does not exist in real life. A conviction or even an arrest can have a chilling effect on your future job opportunities. Employers have the right to ask about any felony or misdemeanor convictions during the interviews. Although employers can't ask about arrests where no conviction occurred, they can look for this information on their own and take it into consideration when determining your eligibility for a job.
Just Don't Do It
When a college prank goes wrong, it can leave you with a criminal record. Many years ago a 21-year-old Duke University student painted a Nike swoosh on his back and streaked across the game between the Blue Devils and North Carolina. He was wearing nothing but a scarf and running sneakers. On his way to jail, the young student told police officers that he was mimicking the popular Nike commercial in hopes of becoming famous or getting endorsements. Unfortunately, the only one who got to know him was the judge. •

I work as a consultant where my job is to troubleshoot security systems. I was recently hired by an auto dealer who was burglarized three weeks in a row. He hired me to find the flaw in his homegrown security system. After looking around for a minute, I had him set the system and wait inside the building. Within 30 seconds I was able to walk right through the front door. He looked at me completely shocked and said, "I installed those systems myself. How in the world did you bypass the motion detectors, emergency light system and the alarm panel?" "Quite simple," I smiled. "I just unplugged the power cord out back!" (Thanks to Billy D.)
