ebecca Rusch usually lets her legs do the talking, having chalked up four victories in the exhausting Leadville Trial 100 Mountain Bike Race and scores of other mountain bike races that have made her a six-time world champion mountain bike racer. But now she’s ready to rant. Rusch will join actor Scott Creighton; Chantal Westerman, “Having honest former entertainment and compasreporter for sionate conver“Good Morning Americaâ€?; sations about Emma Stechallenging ussi, Anika topics‌is the Lyon, Sophie Castle, Kat first step to Vanden changing our Huevel and response as Charlotte Baker in individuals and reading selecas a community.â€? tions from Eve Ensler’s –Tricia Swartling “A Memory, a Monologue, a Rant and a Prayerâ€? on Friday and Saturday night. The Dirty Feet Dance Company will also perform several pieces, including a piece Sherry Horton created with Jana Arnold and David Norwood. The event, which starts at 7 p.m. both nights at the nexStage Theatre in Ketchum, is part of The Advocates’ first V-Day event since its production of Ensler’s “The Vagina Monologuesâ€? in 2007. “We felt it was time to bring these issues back to the forefront,â€? said Advocates’ Executive Director Tricia Swartling. “Having honest and compassionate conversations about challenging topics, such as bullying, teen dating abuse and domestic violence, is the first step to changing our response as individuals and as a community.â€? The event is an awareness campaign and a benefit for The Advocates, a local non-profit that strives to teach people how to build healthy relationships through its educational programs, support services and its shelter. Tickets are $15 for students, $30 for general admission, $50 for reserved seating and $75 for front-row seats. Information: 208-788-4191 or tws theadvocatesorg.org

T

he holiday crowd has begun to arrive in Sun Valley, their Volvos and SUVs beginning to cover every square inch of pavement in the town lying at the foot of Bald Mountain. But there are only two telemark skiers making their way down Lower River Run—and with good reason. Night is rapidly falling and soon the only ones making their way down—and up—Baldy will be the Nightcrawlers. Nightcrawlers is a name given to the men and machines that groom Bald Mountain each night, tilling it with rows of corduroy that are always ranked among the best in the ski world. Tonight I am among them, thanks to a program Sun Valley instituted last year called Ride the Beast. Each week four lucky people’s names are drawn from a lottery, giving them the opportunity to ride one of Sun Valley’s state-of-the-art snow groomers as they manicure the snow. It’s a ride most skiers and boarders would give up—well—a powder day for. Some resorts charge guests for the opportunity to ride a snow cat. But Sun Valley offers rides in its Beast for free.

And what a Beast it is. The Prinoth Beast—developed in Italy to groom glaciers—is the biggest groomer on earth. It’s so wide, so powerful and so fast that it makes the oldest yellow snow cats look like pussy cats. The half-million-dollar machine is oneand-a-quarter times larger than regular groomers, allowing it to groom 40 percent more surface than the regular cats. With a tiller that’s four feet wider, it can cover five more acres per hour than a regular groomer, saving both man hours and machine hours. Yet its fuel-efficient engine uses the same amount of fuel per acre—a good thing, since it consumes about 65 gallons during an eight-hour shift. “It’s the next best thing to driving a spaceship,� said Ransom Bleyer, who works for Sun Valley’s mountain department. “These machines are pieces of art.� Joining me for the evening is Doug Fisher, a Twin Falls man who sells farm equipment and is equally fascinated with Sun Valley’s groomers. He drove a snow cat for Sun Valley the winter of 1975-76 when Sun Valley groomed its mountain with old Tuckers—little more than fourwheel-drive trucks with tracks. That was a low snow year, Fisher recalled, so groomers shoveled snow into

$ ( " " ( "# ( !( # ( % ( ( (

“the boat� and spread it on the cat track so skiers could get off the mountain. “It was a lot like driving farm equipment but on an incline,� Fisher recalled. “They liked me because I skied here. They could tell me to go to such and such and I’d get there, while others would get lost. I loved driving the first cat in the morning because they loaded it with hot donuts to take up to the Lookout Restaurant. I’d help myself now and then to those $3 donuts.� As the eight groomers waited for the Sun Valley Ski Patrol to finish closing the mountain, Sun Valley’s grooming manager Kerry O’Brien listed an everexpanding list of runs the resort wanted groomed for visitors. It has started snowing as we head out. My chauffeur for the evening—Jeff Dent—flips on the humongous three-footlong windshield wipers as we back the futuristic silver metallic Beast out of the garage behind Bald Mountain’s gondola. We take our place behind four other groomers heading up Lower River Run—their lights barely visible through the falling snow. “When the snow came down all at

Vamps, Others to Take World Masters by Storm STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

C

arol Holman, Carol Stevens, Ann Scales and Carol McLaughlin giggled as they skied down Sun Valley’s Boundary Creek Loop. They put their hands on their knees and hunched down as if they were gorillas to make sure their skis were flat. On ski coach Karoline Droege’s command, they straightened up and pushed themselves along with their poles as if they were chipmunks holding an acorn between their hands. These women—part of the 60and-older group of Vamps—have been in training all winter doing long-distance skis, intervals, hill climbs and other drills as they prepared to head to the Masters World Cup in Asiago, Italy. Nineteen Vamps—part of Muffy Ritz’s women’s Nordic ski program—headed for the Masters World Cup races last week. They were accompanied by a half-dozen or more non-Vamps, including Pat Simpson, who says he snuck in some training with the Vamps when he could. The oldest? Eighty-five-yearold Jeanne Cooper who dropped out of Vamps a couple years ago

after getting a new knee but who still scoots her skis along the classic track at the Sun Valley Nordic Center and the Harriman Trail. In true Vamps fashion, the Vamps started the party early, marching around Ketchum town plaza waving little American flags to John Phillips Sousa on the beatbox. They then headed over to The Elephant’s Perch, which staged a special sale for all their last-minute, go-to-Masters needs. “We’ll be full of ourselves,� said Carol Holman. “We’ll get to walk in parade—just like at the Olympics. Oh my!� The Vamps alone comprise more than 10 percent of the American contingent, expected to total about 127, according to Ketchum skier Norm Clark. “Muffy’s effort in coaxing 18 of her newly uniformed Vamps to participate is unusual. My guess is the Wood River Valley group will be newsworthy in Asiago. I’ve been to seven or eight of these things and such a committed contingent I’ve never seen,� he said. “If you look at the group of both sexes competing and you compare this to the performance of all the racers Muffy’s age and

Leigh Harned, honorary littlest Vamp, does her part in cheering on the Vamps as they prepared to head to the Masters World Cup in Asiago, Italy.

above in the Boulder Mountain Tour, you will notice that almost all the age groups, male and female, were mostly local and made the podiums. Quite a number have world champion medals, several with multiple wins. I think with any luck that our locals will make an interesting impact on Asiago and probably on the rest of the U.S. team.� Of course, it’s not just about the racing.

It’s about incredible Italian food—mmmph! A couple thousand years of history. Jaw-dropping scenery. Music. A place where cross-country skiing is considered the national sport. Hotel Milano. And those sensuous Italians. The Sun Valley contingent flew in and out of Venice. Asiago sits on a plateau an hour and a half away and 3,300 feet above sea level. They group will be able to tour the Rode ski wax factory while there. They can even view Kikkan Randall, Petter Northug and Billy Demong at the 2013 Nordic World Championships only an hour and a half bus ride away at Val di Fiemme. “When I went to the Masters at Vancouver at Silver Star, it was so much fun,� said Ketchum skier Joney Otteson. “There was so much camaraderie. People rang bells, cheering for everyone. They entertained us with native dancing, that kind of thing. The atmosphere was electric.� The race course switches up and down several fairways lined with conifers before sweeping out onto grassy, pastoral hills nestled in the Altiplano—the foothills of the Dolomites—for a final push to the stadium.

Opening ceremonies took place on Friday. Races take place through Feb. 22. Back at the Nordic Center, Karoline Droege had one last piece of advice for her World Masters racers in training. “The main thing I want you girls to remember: When you get on that airplane: Have fun!�

Gettin’ to Venice Many of the Sun Valley travelers had a hellacious time getting to Venice. Not only did they encounter weather delays along the way, but some spent 24 hours in the Paris airport after an accident at the Venice airport closed that venue until the runway could be cleared. When they did get to Venice, they found themselves in a blizzard, the waves smacking them as they rode the water taxis. As of Monday, Muffy Ritz and Joanne Davis had won silver medals in the 15K Skate, while Kelly Allison took bronze. Joney Otteson took 10th and Karen Simpson 12th in the 15K Classic. Armchair ski racers can keep abreast of what’s going on through AXCS@xcskiworld. com and www.MWC2013.com.

Top it all off with a hotel clerk with an aversion to gunfire, and you have “A Behanding in Spokane.� The nexStage Theatre will offer a free playreading of the hour-long play at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at the theater in Ketchum. Complimentary beverages and cookies will be provided. The play features Scott Creighton, Charlotte Hemmings, Keith Moore and Jon Kane, who will also direct the reading. The dark comedy by Irish playwright Martin McDonagh is his first set in the United States. It premiered at the Schoenfeld

Theatre on Broadway in 2010 with Christopher Walken in the lead. McDonagh’s most recent play, it’s gruesome, full of plot twists and hilariously funny. “McDonagh is one of the halfdozen finest playwrights in the English-speaking world,� said a reviewer for “The Wall Street Journal.� “He is partial to comic violence, and in ‘A Behanding In Spokane,’ he lets it rip.� “It’s one of the darker comedies we’ve ever done. It’s hysterically funny but people should be forewarned: It contains offensive language and offensive subject material,� said Kane. nexStage has read five other plays by McDonagh, including “Beauty Queen of Leenane� and “The Lieutenant of Inishmore.� McDonagh’s film projects include “In Bruges� and “Seven Psychopaths.� tws

ant to save money while improving the environmental health of your home and community? One simple solution is to change your cleaning products. Many of the traditional ones are not only toxic to your health but to our environment as well, and the average American uses forty pounds of these products a year, spraying them into our air, rubbing them on our hands, and dumping them down our drains. A partial list: phosphates(create algae blooms suffocating aquatic life), chlorine bleach (respiratory irritant), triclosan (labeled antibacterial, this chemical actually promotes growth of drugresistant bacteria and is toxic to aquatic life), phthalates (often labeled “fragrance,” this chemical acts as an endocrine disruptor), formaldehyde (respiratory irritant), diethanolamine (DEA) and triethanolamine (TEA), alkyphenol ethoxyltes (also known

f you are like 82 percent of adult Americans, you own a cell phone, and most phones are not cheap! I like to pose this question to adults: “Is your cell phone a need or a want?” In response, I get some very interesting answers. Some insist it is a need, pure and simple, and a priority in terms of monthly expenses. Others admit that their phone is a want and if they had to, they could live without it. Even if you consider your cell phone a need, consider whether or not you need the top-of-theline cell phone and the unlimited-everything plan; many of us end up going overboard with our gadgets and services, which becomes very expensive. The cell phone industry has gone through a lot of changes in the past few years. New competitors have entered the market, driving costs of cell options down. Last February, I reached the end of my two-year contract and was about to sign a new twoyear deal when I happened to see an advertisement that caught my eye. The ad was for a cell company running a promotion for unlimited talk, text, and Web for $30 a month with no contract! My previous plan on contract was $50 a month without the extras. I did some research on the

company and found out they are part of a big wireless company. I would have the same coverage I already had, plus text and Web for $20 less. I decided to give this company a chance and cut ties with my cell phone carrier of over nine years. I just reached my tenth month of service with this company and have had no regrets. The coverage has been just as good as my previous provider, and I will save over $300 a year because I switched over. My promotional period will run out in a few months and if I stay with them, I will pay $45 a month for unlimited everything. The point is that there are many prepaid options, and without the need to be tied to a two-year contract. My goal with this article isn’t to get everybody to switch cell phone plans, but to make sure you are shopping around and keeping your eyes open for new ways to possibly save money. Switching plans freed up some extra cash to put toward other financial goals. Remember, in these uncertain times, every penny or dollar saved increases your personal liquidity and financial security! tws Info: Blaine County Extension office at 302 First Avenue South in Hailey, phone: (208) 788-5585

play Demands Your Attention BY KAREN BOSSICK

D

ON’T let the myriad of distractions that so often plague us keep you from seeing “Distracted.” This fast-paced 85-minute romp is keeping audiences in stitches, even as it offers an assortment of thought-provoking moments. Uh, pardon me while I reheat my tea... Lisa Loomer’s play about a mother trying to figure out what to do with her possibly hyperactive child in between her daily recitations of St. Francis of Assisi’s prayer and online shoe shopping is hilarious but provocative. Now, who just sent me that -mail? Company of Fools Director Denise Simone has nailed it with a cast of actors who are perfect for their roles. Beth Hilles and Andrew Alburger portray sympathetic parents just trying to do the best for their 9-year-old son Jesse. “Is childhood a disorder now?” states Jesse’s disbelieving father as he and his wife are faced with an array of bewildering opinions. “What kind of parent gives drugs to a 9-year-old?” asks his anguished mother. Hmmm, I think I’ll Google whether those party poopers on the Carnival Cruise Line made it back yesterday… No one in the medical profession gets off unscathed as the parents go through a long list of professionals to find answers. Jana Arnold is perfect as the jaded teacher who probably should’ve retired 32 years ago for the sake of her students, as well as a neuropsychologist who really should deal with her own issues before tending to others’. Well, good morning, sweetheart. Sure, you can give Mom a kiss in the ear… Christine Leslie portrays a psychologist who could solve everything—at $125 an hour—if she could just use her hands. Joel Vilinsky is at his wackiest best in white-coat roles ranging from a homeopath who prescribes a capful of Nux Vomica and spelt bread with soy cheese, to a psychiatrist who couldn’t function if not for the Ritalin he takes. “You know that they broadened the definition for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder a few years back,” he tells the mother. “They hold a convention at a nice hotel, invite the top psychiatrists, propose a broader definition that includes more symptoms…and vote… Of course, a broader definition means they can diagnose, and medicate, more kids.” What, hubby? You want me to make you breakfast? I’m right in the middle of a story… Traci Otto provides a sobering look at a neighbor girl who cuts, perhaps, because at least she can be in control of her pain.

pill—the more of ’em, the better. Honey, can you check the messages on the answering machine for me and transcribe any that are for me? And Jennifer Jacoby Rush takes the cake as a breathless, uptight neighbor in perpetual motion who has found her Nirvana at Curves where “there’s 15 machines and you change every 30 seconds so you never get bored.” “Everything is genetic! Everything!” she advises. Man, I’m glad I’ve never run into anyone like her while walking on the bike path. Of course, the teachers and doctors are exaggerated versions of how the mother in the play sees them. Only the parents, the teenage babysitter and young Jesse—played by Hemingway Elementary School third-grader Max Albright, the son of Rico and Amy Albright—are downto-earth representations of real people. Umm, I’d better clean my camera lens while I’m thinking about it… The Fools—21-year-old Russell Wilson, specifically—set the stage before the play ever starts with rap music that my husband found very annoying. A steady stream of flashing scenes from “Fast and Furious” on the TV screens provided by Cox Communications would have made us even more wired. I wonder how long this drugged-out zombie feeling is going to last… Dennis Rexroad, John Glenn and Simone have created an amazing circular set that serves as a circle of peace and meditation. And Joe Lavigne built an amazing ramp that actors can run up and down to complete the effect of constant movement. Boy, that was a fun play, although I feel badly for parents and kids who have to sort through behavior modification and all those other options to try to find a cure for what seems to be ailing them. (I hit ‘Send.’) Now, excuse me while I check with my vet to see if he thinks he should prescribe Ritalin for my rambunctious, easily distracted, in-my-face but always loving and lovable puppy dog… tws

Opera Steps Into New Era BY KAREN BOSSICK

S

un Valley Opera stepped into a new era Wednesday night as it staged “La Bohéme,” with the help of Utah Lyric Opera. Only a handful of seats were empty in the 500-seat Wood River High School Performing Arts Theatre as subtitles for Puccini’s love story rolled at the top of the stage. Eight-year-old Logan Pilaro literally sat on the edge of his seat he was so enthralled with the whole production. Wood River Middle School students Analicia Josie Koeplin and Marinos Santos came because of the enthusiasm their teacher Elizabeth Martin had expressed for the opera. “We love it. We love the story behind it, and we really like the bass singer,” said Koeplin. “We watched an opera at the movies with Neptune, but it’s neat seeing it live.” The opera, which followed a group of bohemian artists who barely had enough to pay rent but were rich in love and passion, was preceded by an evening of popular tunes mixed with “La Bohéme” numbers. It, too, attracted a sold-out audience of more than 400 people at the Church of the Big Wood,

many of whom had come to see Lisa Hopkins Seegmiller, who had received a Grammy nomination. It was the real deal. Even if you couldn’t have heard Seegmiller’s Grammy-nominated voice, you could have felt her powerful vibrato reverberating through the church. And soprano Jenny Lister was a showstopper both nights with her flamboyant approaches to “Musetta’s Waltz,” “Glitter and Be Gay” and “All I Ask of You.” Sun Valley Opera hopes to stage another three-night Winter Extravaganza, including a staged opera and a concert featuring popular and operatic tunes, next year, said opera president Frank Meyer. “It was wonderful that so many people came to enjoy voices of this caliber. Imagine one of these singers singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl. Quite some competition to Beyonce!” he added. Carol Scheifele-Holmes noted that Sun Valley Opera has been all about bringing voices to the valley—from up-and-coming voices to voices “that enthrall, amaze and entertain us.” “This was really a high note because of the Grammy-nominated Lisa Hopkins Seegmiller,” tws she added.

I

t had slipped my mind that Sunday, February 10, had been Chinese New Year. This is the Year of the Snake, which supposedly portends a possible sneaky energy that can be to your advantage. So, I’ll make sure to watch closely because I like things to go my way. Well, to start things off on the right foot (sorry footless snake), my Monday visit with Cindy and Sam certainly did go my way. To elaborate a bit, on Monday, February 11, I had an appointment to chat with Sam and Cindy, who own the Silver Dragon in Bellevue. This very low-key and homey restaurant is located in the plaza where the Bellevue Atkinsons’ is. They served me two lunch specials, which were delicious and beautifully presented. One was the orange chicken, a brightly colored dish surrounded by fresh green broccoli ($10.95), and the other was their house chow mein with chicken, beef and shrimp ($8.95). Sam, who does most of the

cooking, emphasized that he features only fresh ingredients and uses very little oil in his creations—and, if so, just soybean oil. My lunch led to their most unexpected and generous invitation to join their family and friends for a day-after New Year dinner. WOW—I was excited! The dinner was joyful and delicious. I’ve rarely seen so many dishes on one table: Peking duck, lobster, perch, scallops, fabulous mushrooms and vegetables, chicken and more. What a treat that snake gave me. To end this little article, Cindy and Sam wanted to make sure to say that they came here to enjoy the small-town atmosphere and are so happy that they did because they like all of the local people so much. They also think that it’s a great place to raise children. So, don’t forget, if you are hungry for Chinese cuisine, visit the Silver Dragon. As always, make sure to say that Margot and The Weekly Sun sent you. This once-monthly column features our wonderful Valley restaurants, to which we can easily stroll—sometimes with the help of a bus or car ride—and is therefore called The Walking Gourmet. I hope that it will be a helpful guide for would-be diners as well for all of our fine local eateries. tws

<;8$ (&" (&') The Second Law of Fly Tying

T

he Second Law of Thermodynamics states that entropy in the universe is ever increasing. Nowhere is this truer than fly fishing. We start with a simple equation; (fisherman + fish). If only it ended there. Quickly, we add more and more variables: water, wind, weather, insects, and on and on, all the way to the subtle push of an emerging mayfly just below rather than just above 1/100th of an inch of surface film. But for most fly fishers the greatest variable of all, the one that separates us from the worm and bobber hordes, is the fly. Beginner fly fishers start with only a few flies in their box, go-to’s they know, maybe the pattern they caught their first fish on. Quickly that box grows and grows. I’ve yet to meet a fly fisher who adds less flies to their repertoire as time goes on. Most end up like me; boxes upon boxes, filled with back up plans A to ZZZ. Entropy increases. No fishermen are more vulnerable to this malady than fly tyers. It’s not that the universe needs another emerging Pale Morning Dun pattern, it’s that every fly tyer has the ability to create one, and, inevitably, does. Sitting in front of the vice, I think fisherman tend to block out most of fly fishing’s complexity. Instead, they revert to the original simple equation; (fisherman + fish), with the fly the only thing standing between the two. The underlying urge the fly tyer feels goes something like this – “without the right fly, the new fly, my fly, there is no way on God’s green Earth I’m going to catch that fish”. And so we put thread to hook and create anew. A few times in my career as a fishing guide, I’ve been lucky enough to stand beside someone as they caught their first fish on a fly they tied. It’s an electric moment, a combination of “I can’t believe that worked” and endless possibility. More often though, it’s the other way around, my clients catching the first fish on a fly I invented. This is the great dirty secret of fly fishing guides; we experiment more than you’d think, with the fish and fisherman as the unwitting variables, and the fly the continuously modified constant in the middle. All guides start with something they know will work, after all, it’s a pass/fail job. You clients catch fish or they don’t. But that experimental urge, the “what if” gets strong, and at some point the guide quietly ties on their latest creation and experiments. If the experiment fails, the new creation is cut right back off. But if it works, I let my client name the new fly; my creative urge is justified, and ideas for new versions start to spin in my head. And I go home and add one more new pattern to the universe.

t’s a Prozac nation in the year 2013 and nowhere is that more apparent than in the fine new psychological thriller – aptly named Side Effects. Expertly directed by Steven Soderbergh, he has stated that this will be his last feature film. Hopefully this isn’t true but, if it is, he will be going out with a bang. With a backdrop of the pervasive pharmaceutical industry, the movie has more twists and turns than Lombard Street and harkens back in many ways to some of Alfred Hitchcock’s classics. But at its heart it boasts great performances by great actors and expert direction – something that really makes it stand out in today’s marketplace.

The dilemma for the reviewer is how to dissect and describe the involved plot without making the whole review one big spoiler alert. At the beginning we have the seemingly central character played by an excellent Rooney Mara, whose husband—the hunky Channing Tatum—has just been released after four years in prison for insider trading. This scenario turns into depression for Mara and, after trying to hurt herself she enters into the care of a psychiatrist played by Jude Law. After treating her with a laundry list of antidepressants, he settles on the new, fictional wonder drug, Ablixa. Soon a crime is committed and the story starts to spin into a lot of unchartered water. Specifically, Law takes center stage

Jon rated this movie

for the second and third acts of the movie, as it becomes his film as his life begins to unravel out of control We are also introduced to Catherine Zeta-Jones as Mara’s former psychiatrist, who plays a larger part in the intrigue as the plot unfolds. For some, the resolution may be preposterous, but I found myself joyously along for the ride. If a good suspense thriller is your bag, then this is your movie. tws

A Garfield Tale Destiny of the Republic—“A Tale of Madness, Medicine and the Murder of a President” By Candice Millard, Hardback, 260 pages with more pages containing notes, etc., 2011, True Historical Narrative BY MARGOT VAN HORN

P

resident Garfield—have I ever given him any thought other than, yes, he was one of our Presidents? I’m not even sure that I would have remembered that he was assassinated. I’m not certain that I knew or, for that matter, wanted to know more about him. Thank you, Candice, for enlightening me about that! What an interesting man he was and what fascinating times in which he lived. For anyone who is interested in history and, in particular, that which pertains to our country, this is a must read. This young woman is a gifted storyteller and it’s another book I found hard to put down. So, here we have a supremely intelligent man who is raised in poverty but, even so, succeeds in becoming an extremely educated man with passion, vision and integrity. Then, to his great surprise, he becomes, in 1880, the 20th President of the United States. Surrounding this scene is the madman, Charles Guiteau, who successfully shoots this poor brave President two times—not fatally, you understand—so truly Guiteau was not the one who murdered the President, which he kept saying at his trial. Well, he had a point there because that role falls to the good Dr. Bliss and the faulty medical thinking of the American medical society of that era. Not in England, though, with the great Dr. Lister, who had already discovered germs and how to handle them. Enter Alexander G. Bell and part of his historical tale of that time. You even encounter the son of Lincoln, who has the dubious distinction of being present at the assignations of three Presidents. This is truly a fascinating book, which you should not miss. It is in the line of a Shakespearean tragedy that centers on a truly noble and gifted man. It is full of suspense and is a riveting narrative. Lastly, still on the World War II vein, JoAnn Boswell e-mailed me a recommendation that I think would make a terrifically good read: Citizens of London by Lynne Olsen. JoAnn described it as follows: “It is the inside story of how the U.S. was cajoled into getting involved in the European front by the Brits. Lots of intrigue, fascinating little-known facts, and pretty dishy, too. The book reads like a novel.” Thank you, JoAnn. It’s on my must-read list.

once early in the season, it was a little hard to get around. Once it’s packed down it’s a lot easier,� Dent said. We move uphill at seven miles an hour, the Beast’s 550-horsepower engine cranking like that of a semi-truck. The steep incline forces me back in my seat, straining my neck. It feels strange to be heading uphill for someone used to skiing downhill. But it’s the norm for Dent. He’s been grooming Sun Valley’s ski mountain since 1975, having come to Sun Valley from Seattle to ski in 1972 when he was 24 and leaving his construction job in 1973 to become an official Sun Valley ski bum. He took the job as a groomer when he realized it was “the best job in the ski area,� affording him the opportunity to work from 4 p.m. to midnight and catch a little shut-eye before returning to the mountain in the morning to ski. “I was here when Doug Fisher was here,� he said. “In fact, Jack and Brad were here then, too. The cats were primitive then. And we actually groomed very little then compared to what we groom now. We couldn’t climb anything. We’d go down a run and up the cat track and go down again in big circles. The only run that got groomed every night was College.� Now groomers always groom at least 20 runs and, often, they add a few extras, such as Can Can and Janss Pass in Frenchman’s Gulch. The Beast lurches onto the Roundhouse Lane cat track. With a slight move of what resembles a video game joystick, Dent pivots The Beast and we head up the cat track to College. The snow is blowing horizontally right into the windshield, coming down so hard that it’s difficult even for someone like me who is intimately familiar with the mountain to tell exactly where we are. When the snow or fog is thick, Dent said he positions his light on the corner of the Lookout Restaurant. Once there he trains it to the right, searching for a pole on Warm Springs that will steer him in the right direction. “Sometimes it feels like I’m doing this with my eyes closed,� he said. He pauses. “Alright, Karen, hold on and I’ll give you a really fun ride.� Dent dips off the I-80 cat track at an angle and it feels as if we’re racing down Warm Springs, one of the steeper runs on the mountain. Only the seatbelt keeps me from going through the large picture window of The Beast. But I feel quite comfortable in the cab, with its temperature set at 70 degrees. Abruptly, Dent pivots The Beast and we head back uphill. We want to test how well we can climb given the new snow, he explains. If we start to slide, they’ll have to use a cat with a winch attached to a cable along Warm Springs Face to groom the run. Dent himself has never had an accident. But another groomer was caught in a slide in the Bowls. Another time, a groomer caught fire. “I’ve never gotten scared. But there are times I’ve paid attention,� he said. “Last year, when we got a little rain in March and then it froze—that got interesting.� At top it looks as if we’re going to plow right into the Lookout Restaurant. Then Dent pivots The Beast and we head down again, turning this time

onto a cat track that leads to Race Arena. I feel as if we’re heading off the edge of the world momentarily as he points The Beast down into the race arena and heads for what used to be the superpipe. Since Sun Valley filled it this summer, the groomers now call it the “flatpipe.� The snow hitting the windshield looks like sparklers. Dent dims the lights for a moment so I can gaze upon the lights of Ketchum twinkling in the snow. On a clear night, Dent can see the lights of Hailey and Bellevue from the top of the mountain. Heck, he can even see the lights of Twin Falls in the distance. “And we get some pretty nice sunsets up here, as well,� he added, making me a little envious since the mountains typically block sunsets. I can’t help but salivate as I eye the fresh corduroy. Dent says he doesn’t critique his work the next day. “No matter how well you groom it, you can always find something that’s not quite perfect if you look hard enough,� he said. He pauses as he spots something that’s not perfectly manicured. “I am going to have to go back over that. I don’t want you stubbing your toe tomorrow.� At 65, Dent recently got a new hip. But his doctor has cleared him to begin skiing again, and he can’t wait. The pain-free hip will also give him a chance to resume backpacking and bike riding, come summer, he notes. But he has no thoughts of retiring. “Usually by May, I start thinking about skiing again—it makes me feel like Peter Pan,� he said. “And I can’t wait to come back and get to work. I want to be up here.� Dent finishes Warm Springs after four hours and deposits me at the top of the gondola. I step down the tracks onto the snow below and weigh whether I should stop in at the historic Roundhouse for a quick bite to eat. I’d like to finish out the full shift—it’s been a memorable evening with man and Beast. But, darn, I have too much work—and a house full of company—awaiting. tws

Portfolio Considerations in 2013

R

ecent political and economic developments have generated a significant number of queries from folks I bump into on the street. The oftasked question goes something like this: “With these developments, what does the future hold for my financial well-being?� My answer starts with an understanding of the “cobra effect�. During the British rule of colonial India, the government became concerned about the number of venomous cobras in Delhi. So they implemented a bounty for the reviled serpent. The program met with initial success as numerous snakes were submitted. Surprisingly, the longer the program lasted, the more claims there were on the bounty. Careful monitoring discovered the bounty had created a new industry—cobra farming. The government, dismayed at the development, canceled the program. The farmers responded by releasing the worthless snakes into the wild. The result was a significant increase in the number of serpents in the colony. This situation generated the expression used in business management circles as the “cobra effect.� This is not a political column. Nor am I making a political

Th e W e e k l y S u n •

judgment when I state that there may be some opportunities for the cobra effect to be evidenced in our economy in the coming years. Several major national policy changes, legislated recently, will begin to be implemented in the months to come. As these well-intentioned artificial inputs are introduced into our economy, there may be measurable opportunity and risks created for your portfolio. The good news is that respected economists expect the economy to recover and evidence growth. Among them is Goldman Sachs’ top economist, Jan Hatzius. Hatzius predicted that the U.S. would see real-growth acceleration in the second half of 2013, in a well-documented report earlier this month. But, I caution my clients that these higher valuations may be attained in a more volatile marketplace. It is plausible to expect that policy changes and market volatility may favor the investor who prudently solicits professional assistance. The effective advisor (or investor) will be the one that can better anticipate asymmetrical risk. That is to understand when an investment’s modest exposure to significant risk makes its probable gains an un-

February 20, 2013

worthy place to invest. You can best picture asymmetrical risk as picking up nickels in front of a slow-moving steamroller. Another key will be to grow wealth with a mind toward tax implications. In a nutshell, I anticipate significant opportunity set in an investment world of growing complexity.

Chloe Lewis, Logan Bye student spotlight Win Nat’l Championship Emilia Bingham on Sports, Academics BY KAREN BOSSICK

T

welveyearold Chloe Lewis’ little shriek at the end of her threeplus-minute free dance said it all. She and 14-year-old Logan Bye had just been crowned the new U.S. National Champions in Novice Dance, having beaten a pair of 17- and 18-year-old skaters at the 2013 U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Omaha, Neb. Quite the triumph for a parttime Sun Valley figure skater who played Clara in Sun Valley’s “Nutcracker on Ice” the past two Christmas Eves. Lewis and Bye had been 2.48 points behind the first-place team going into the last round, but they used three Level-4 lifts, a smoothly done spin and some difficult steps to win the free dance by 4.95 points, which put them 2.47 points on top. The two looked relax and smooth as they skated to the Roaring Twenties-style score from the 2011 Oscar-winning film “The Artist.” They had spent a Saturday afternoon watching the silent movie to get the feel for nuances of their routine, which was one of the final collaborative choreographic efforts of Igor Shpilband and Marina Zoueva. “It was thrilling to watch them go from sixth place to second place and then ahead. They were the last of the 12 teams to go, so the pressure was on. And the team in first place had done a very nice job, so it looked as if they were sure to win. I loved the shriek for joy. It was just so

much like a 12-yearold,” said Ken Lewis, Chloe’s grandfather. Chloe Lewis, the daughter of Scott and Laura Lewis, was 3 when she learned to skate in Sun Valley. She met Bye in Sun Valley two years ago and the two have trained in Sun Valley every summer since as associate members of the Sun Valley Figure Skating Club. The pair won the U.S. Figure Skating Association West Coast sectional competition in Salt Lake City in November 2011. They came in fourth at the National Championships competition in San Jose in January 2012. This summer Bye moved from Colorado Springs to Portland where Chloe lives to train with her daily. They had been flying back and forth every two weeks. This year they won the West Coast sectional competition, which was held this year in Provo, Utah, coming in first in all three dances. The two hope to compete on the Junior Grand Prix next season. And, then, there’s the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in South Korea… Of course, Grandpa Lewis will be watching. “When she skates she has such a big smile on her face,” he said. “She loves the artistry and competition.” You can watch their Free Dance at http://youtu.be/Bm6DxmdjEKY.

Not like here, where you have to drive an hour to go to Costco. But when I first got here there was three feet of snow and I was instantly in love. Now I can’t get enough of it and I love to camp, swim and especially play soccer.” Bingham started playing soccer at six years old and this year played on the varsity as a defender. “I really like the competitiveness that goes into it,” she said. Also, it’s kind of funny because I’m actually more coordinated with my feet than with my hands.” This year Wood River placed sixth in the state tournament. “Really, it was a learning year for me and I didn’t play that much but I’m really excited about next year.” Bingham also competes in track, which she has been doing

since seventh grade. “We start in two weeks and I’m really pumped up. I run the 200 meters and the 100-meter hurdles. I like to think that I’m pretty fast. I really like track because you’re competing against yourself and that really helps to push you even harder. I also like the hurdles because it requires so much concentration and coordination and not everyone can do it.” Bingham finished in eighth place last year in hurdles at district. She added, “I guess if I had to choose between team or individual sports I would choose team. In team sports there are more friendships and you really work together and you learn how to depend on each other. It’s really cool to see everyone get better and really grow together.” In the meantime, Bingham is holding down a 3.9 grade point average and is a member of National Honor Society. She is also taking a number of Advance Placement classes,

including U.S. history, language and composition, psychology, economics and calculus. “Wood River is a really great place to be because we have excellent teachers and a lot of opportunities with clubs and sports. All my classmates get along great because we’ve been with each other for so long and we’re all there to help each other. My interests now lean toward psychology, but I also really love to write fiction. Psychology helps me to understand the world and myself better. I could really see pursuing it as a career because I love to help people and it can branch out into so many different careers, like being a social worker, for example. In writing I like to focus on short stories that deal with my life and growing up. The skills really apply to school and have helped me a lot. In college I hope to major in either journalism or psychology.” With either choice, you can be sure Emilia Bingham will be a success. tws

Awards. The seventh-graders donated $5,000 to the cause by selling amaryllis plants and donating money each had been given from the Wood River Foundation to teach them philanthropy. Wood River High School senior Larissa Roberts also raised $1,800 by organizing a barn dance, said Teresa McGoffin. The outlook for women diagnosed with breast cancer is steadily improving, thanks to the effort of organizations like Expedition Inspiration, said Lippman. While one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime, more than four out of five of those women can expect to be cured of the disease.

other E.I. NEWS

Katie Powell is stepping down from Expedition Inspiration after 19 years at its helm. Powell got in on the ground floor of Expedition Inspiration as the late Laura Evans of Ketchum was founding it. She even followed Evans up 14,495foot Mount Whitney—the highest mountain in the contiguous United States—on one of the organization’s early fundraising expeditions. Expedition Inspiration is moving its world headquarters from Ketchum to Boise in order to expand its outreach and fundraising opportunities. The Laura Evans Memorial Breast Cancer Symposium and Twilight Snowshoe and Auction will remain in Sun Valley. A fundraising hike—Five Peaks in One Day—will be held near Galena on Aug. 10. Next up: Boobapalooza on April 12 at The Cornerstone Bar & Grill in Ketchum. Professional artists will provide an evening of body painting on men and women from 8 p.m. to midnight. tws

A Good’s Night Sleep BY LUKE SNELL

T

he U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced in January new requirements for manufacturers of AmbienŽ and other sleep drugs containing the active ingredient zolpidem. The manufacturers of these medications are now required to lower their recommended bedtime dose. The new requirement was issued secondary to new data that revealed that the blood levels of zolpidem remains elevated in the morning and are high enough to impair a patient’s ability to participate in activities that require alertness, including driving. This risk for impairment is greater with the extended release formulations of zolpidem. Since women eliminate zolpidem from their bodies slower than men, the FDA has informed the manufacturers that the recommended dosage of zolpidem for women should be lowered from 10 milligrams (mg) to 5 mg for immediate-release products and from 12.5 mg to 6.25 mg for extended-release products (Ambien CR). For men, the FDA has informed the manufacturers that the labeling should recommend that health care professionals consider prescribing these lower doses (5 mg for immediate-release products and 6.25 mg for extended-release products). These products are currently available on the market in both the higher and lower dosages. This news impacts our Valley particularly since the use of zolpidem in our area appears to be much higher than the national average. Zolpidem ranks approximately 50th in the most prescribed drugs nationwide, according to the most recent data available from the IMS Institute of Healthcare Informatics. However, zolpidem at my pharmacy continues to be in the top five most-dispensed prescriptions year after year.

February 20, 2013

What do these new dosing requirements mean for those that currently take the higher dose of zolpidem? It is recommended that you remain on your current prescribed dose until you are able to discuss your zolpidem dose with your healthcare provider. The requirements for the next morning’s activities need to be factored in when considering taking zolpidem any night. Also remember that you need to be able to dedicate at least eight hours of sleep after taking zolpidem and that zolpidem is not intended to be taken nightly on a continual basis. A good night of sleep is critical in maintaining good health. Consider the following “sleep hygiene� habits in an effort to avoid having to use zolpidem or other insomnia drugs: 1. Avoid napping 2. Avoid stimulants like caffeine, nicotine, and even alcohol – especially too close to bedtime 3. Vigorous exercise (not too late in the day) 4. Avoid large meals close to bedtime 5. Ensure adequate exposure to natural light 6. Establish a regular relaxing bedtime routine 7. Don’t watch TV, read or listen to music in bed 8. Have a comfortable bed and comfortable room temperature There are also nutritional supplements that can be considered, especially if insomnia is secondary to elevated stress levels. The proper supplements need to be matched with the type of stress occurring. More information can be found on our Website or by calling Luke’s Family Pharmacy.

Ask the Guys

Dear Classified Guys, Every week when I pick up the newspaper, I scan the employment section. Not because I need work, but I like to make sure I still have a good job with competitive pay. When I see one paying less, I feel better about going to work the next day. During my weekly scan, I've seen some pretty strange ads. One was a flag company that needed someone to climb flagpoles and install ornaments at the top. Not quite the job for me since I'm afraid of heights. Then last week I saw an ad for someone to consult as an "in-field mattress inspector". I thought it was a joke until I saw the salary. It's more than I make. I figure I'm qualified since I sleep on a mattress every night. How hard can inspecting one be? I'm considering answering this ad, but before I apply, can you tell me what a mattress inspector really does? I'm hoping there are naps involved.

• • • Carry: It would be nice to have a job where napping is a requirement. I'm sure a lot of people would be lining up to apply. Cash: It's probably the only interview where you could show

up with a pillow and blanket. Carry: Despite how the title sounds, "mattress inspectors" don't get to lie around all day. In fact, the job requires quite a bit of travel. Cash: In-field mattress inspectors are more like investigators. Here's how it works. Let's say you bought a mattress from a major manufacturer. A few years later, after several backaches, you think your mattress is defective or sagging too much. You contact the manufacturer and request a replacement under the warranty. The manufacturer hires an independent company who then inspects your mattress to determine if it is faulty. Carry: That's where the mattress

inspector comes in. Their job is to travel to your house and determine if the mattress is defective. However, instead of lying down and taking a nap, they make a visual inspection of the mattress, box spring and frame. They may also take some basic measurements and photographs as well. Cash: The information is passed onto the company to determine if the mattress qualifies for replacement or repair under the warranty. Regardless of the outcome, the inspection company is paid for their services. Carry: If you like to travel and meet with people, then it may be a good job for you. But if your goal is to lie down on the job, you probably need to look elsewhere.

Most of us never get enough sleep, which can make for a long tiring day at work. That growing number of weary workers is gaining the attention of companies as it impacts the bottom line. Reduced productivity due to sleep deprivation is estimated to cost businesses about 18 billion dollars per year. Considering the potential losses, more and more companies are encouraging break times or offering napping rooms for employees to refresh themselves. The only thing better would be to have someone else do your job while you're resting.

All Tucked In

"Sleep tight" is one of those phrases many parents use when they tuck their children into bed for the evening. Yet it's origin is believed to date back far beyond our grandparents generation. Back in the 16th and 17th centuries, a mattress was typically made from straw or down. It was then placed on a lattice of ropes suspended from a wood frame. The ropes often required regular tightening, which in turn created the phrase "sleep tight". •

Reader Humor The Softer Side

The retail world of selling mattresses can be very competitive. The owner of the store where I work has a policy that any mattress can be returned within 20 days for a full refund. To be honest, most people never have a problem. Last week, however, I received one of those rare calls for a return. A woman named Rhonda told me that she loved the bedroom set she bought, but Henry couldn't stand the soft mattress. "He's been restless every night," she complained. "We've tried switching sides and flipping the mattress, but he finally gave up and slept on the floor." "That's horrible," I replied. "Does your husband have a bad back?" "Oh, Henry's not my husband," she said. "He's my basset hound!" (Thanks to David C.)
