lans are continuing to take shape for a Bring Bowe Back bash slated for June 22 in Hailey’s Hop Porter Park. The event will be held from 1 to 4 p.m., a week before the fourth anniversary of the June 30 date when Bergdahl was Jani Bergdahl and taken captive by a Taliban-allied insur- her husband Bob have relied heavgent group. It is believed that Bergdahl, ily on their faith to help them endure who just turned 27, is being held captive their son’s captivity. in Afghanistan or Pakistan. Organizer Debbie O’Neill says the event will include music by two local bands: Up a Creek and Paddy Wagon. About 250 MIA/POW motorcyclists from as far away as Utah and Nevada are expected to attend, with Hailey Police Chief Jeff Gunter leading the procession from Jerome. Several government officials will speak, including Blaine County Commissioner Larry Schoen, Sun Valley Councilman Nils Ribi and Bellevue City Mayor Chris Koch. And participants will plant four trees in Bowe’s name, each marking one year of his captivity. KECH Radio is donating a plaque for the trees, which will bear some words chosen by Bob Bergdahl, Bowe’s father. “We’re hoping we don’t have to plant a fifth tree,” said Dayle Ohlau, KECH Radio news director. O’Neill, a self-described grandmother who lives in Indian Creek, said she met Bowe’s parents, Bob and Jani Bergdahl, right after Bowe was captured. “I wanted them to know that we in Blaine County have not forgotten Bowe,” she said. “It started out as a little event and it’s growing and growing. I’m so thrilled with the response of the community.” Christopher & Co., Sun Valley Mustard and Smith Optics, for instance, have donated raffle prizes, while Jane’s Artifacts is donating the raffle tickets. Moss Garden Center is donating a gift certificate. Several motels, including the Wood River Inn, Lift Tower Lodge and and AmericInn Lodge, are offering special rates for those who come for the event. Sun Valley Brewery has offered to sell burgers and brews, and Atkinsons’ Market is donating 800 bottles of water. And Clear Creek Disposal has volunteered to pick up the trash at no cost. Geegee Lowe, who works at the Hailey Chamber of Commerce, spent part of Easter Day tying a hundred yellow ribbons around town to replace ones that have become faded. “It was Easter and it was a gorgeous day outside and my son had just visited me from Tucson. And I was thinking I was so lucky to have a son who’s free and able to visit,” she said. “I can’t imagine what Bowe’s poor parents must be going through.” More information: debyoneill@aol. com or 208-450-9687.

Race bids go batty over games STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

lyssa Ritzel has learned a lot from the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation coaches about how to keep her hands up, her eyes looking forward and her weight on her outside ski. But they never taught her how to ski around racing gates in a Powerball shell that was almost as big as she. “They’re so big you can’t really reach your hands out and make your body move around the gates the way you would like,” said Ritzel, who served as the Junior Pro on a team that included fellow Powerballs Jonathan and Phillip Neeley, Don Wiseman, Rob Clayton and Karoline Droege. The Powerballs made quite a sight coming down the race course, along with a host of pirates, Greek goddesses, jokers, playing cards and other characters this weekend as nearly 200 adults and youngsters took part in the 16th annual Janss Pro-Am Classic. The event is one of the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation’s biggest fundraisers. And everyone had their game face on as they whirled through a series of events that included cocktails and sliders at Michel’s, huckleberry-infused martinis provided by American Revolution Vodka and golden oldies served up by Boise’s High Street Band at Whiskey Jacques’, along with picnics of tacos and tomato basil soup provided by Tom Nickel’s Sawtooth Club and Elevation 486 in Twin Falls. The party at Whiskey’s was a threering circus as dancers bounced tennis balls, batted around plastic volleyballs and even roller-skated as they danced. “We’ve gotta get our attitude on. Out of my way! Back off!” quipped Teresa Brett, a member of the Bellevue Bombers Roller Derby team, which dressed in hot pink shorts with fishnet stockings and roller skates. The Greek Goddess Gladiators made their entry on pallets carried by smiling slaves in togas. And Team Love made its own entry with its pro riding a chair strung together with tennis balls. Out on the racecourse the freestyle team, which dubbed itself the Switch Hitters, skied backwards down the course, batting the gates with plastic bats and

high-fiving one another through baseball gloves. Racing backwards was a little unnerving, said Joe Marx, but necessary because the freestylers thought they had to do things differently than the other teams in keeping with their calling as freestylers. “It definitely gives you a whiplash since you have to constantly be looking over one shoulder, then the other,” said Ross Falcone. This Janss Pro-Am marked the end of an era for Kate Berman, who stepped down as the organizer of the Wild Game benefit dinner and the Janss Pro-Am. Chelle Gourlay, who used to work with Berman at the Bald Mountain Cantina, said it was amazing that Berman took on the job organizing the Janss Pro-Am and fall wild game benefit since she would never come out of the back of the kitchen at the cantina. “She said, ‘I can’t plan things…’ “ Gourlay recalled. “We’re grateful (she did) because she throws one heck of a party. She’s looking forward to seeing all of you on the streets because she says she knows ‘I won’t have to ask any of you for anything.’ ” Ski Education Foundation Director Don Wiseman paid tribute to the late Tom Unger, who left the Foundation $100,000—to

See the Kazoogle and That Rappin’ Samsonite Suitcase at The Brewery Screen Door Porch From Jackson Plays Brewery BY KAREN BOSSICK
J
ust about every band boasts a guitar and drum set. Not every band sports a socalled Wyoming kazoogle shaped like a bugle or a Samsonite suitcase turned into a kick drum. These unique instruments, which help set Screen Door Porch apart, started when singer-songwriter Aaron Davis’ father began sending him gag gifts, such as musical spoons, for Christmas. The duo from Jackson, Wyo., will parade them out, along with acoustic, electric and slide guitars, banjo, mandolin and harmonica, when they perform a free concert at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Sun Valley Brewery in Hailey. “The kazoo makes a humming buzz. The suitcase, which does double duty as a suitcase, sounds different than you’d think it would sound,” said Seader Rose, the other half of Screen Door Porch. “It’s fun watching people in the audience try to figure out where the sound is coming from. When they figure out it’s a suitcase, their eyes get real wide. “We did it as a joke to begin with and loved it,” she continued. “These kinds of instruments allow us to expand our sound with something different. We’re more than just two people with two guitars.” That Wyoming-grown duo has been likened to “Gillian Welch meets The Band with Ryan Adams and Bonnie Raitt hanging out backstage.” Their Lennon-McCartney-type
arrangements have earned spots on Best Albums of the Year lists for their two albums, “Screen Door Porch” and “The Fate & The Fruit.” In the past two years the band has shared bills with Steve Earle, Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit and Jim Avett and performed at such concerts as South by Southwest and Stanley’s Sawtooth Music Festival. They will appear in Hailey with Benyaro, an indie-acoustic roots-and-soul act that has drawn comparisons to The Band, The Avett Brothers, an acoustic David Bowie and Cat Stevens. Benyaro, who has performed at the Sundance Film Festival and Big Sky Big Grass Festival, met Screen Door Porch when he began calling Jackson home, in addition to Brooklyn. “We’re excited to come back. We played Whiskey’s last October and we love the area—it’s so beautiful and everyone’s so nice,” said Rose. As you might expect, Screen Door Porch got its name from jamming on the porch with fellow musicians like Benyaro. “We loved the feeling of camaraderie the name signals about hanging around outside on the porch playing songs with your friends,” said Rose. “And, of course, it’s all about being able to look all around and take in the beautiful scenery while you’re doing it.” Rose and Aaron tend to write songs about things that happen to them while experiencing life on the road. But don’t think these are two sweet little folk musicians. “We have elements of that, but we add electric elements, bluesy voices,” said Rose. “If you had to define our music, it would be ‘soulful Americana, roots-rock and country blues.’ ” tws

The Alchemy of Jerusalem STORY & PHOTO BY BALI SZABO
J Bike Path Advocates Press for RX Page 7
Orage Masters Turn Dollar Into Three-Ring Circus Page 11
erusalem has two realities. One is its physical presence and its socioeconomic profile. The other is in the realm of the imagination, what we think of it, the growth of its mythic stature through the last 2000 years. The two are not equally weighted. No one cares about the decline in per-capita income over the last 20 years. The dreams, hopes, its embalmed claim of divine presence, the projection of values we have shoveled onto this city, obliterate the actual city of 750,000 residents. The city is larger than life. The accumulation of this mythic lode began with the Babylonian exile (600 BCE), which spoke to a universal human paradigm—that we don’t appreciate what we have until we lose it. These few thousand Jews, in desperation, and in one or two generations, began to codify and preserve their beliefs on tablets and papyrus. They made sure their children were literate. In the process, they enshrined Jerusalem as their lost City of God, the first virtual city of the Ancient World. They were determined to keep the faith through written record and custom. This needed a focal point—a sacred Jerusalem. The Diaspora had its icon. The exiles created and answered a need. It became divine real estate, an earthly place with a hilltop rock, and also the Heaven of their imagination. When millennial fever hit, Armageddon, a meadow outside the city walls, became the deemed site of the ultimate battle between good and evil. The
latter was a designated ‘heathen’; i.e., Satan. (This was, and remains, an unfortunate evolutionary direction of religious thought because it invented the idea of the ‘just war’). Over the centuries, the brick and mortar reality of the city has been left behind by an overactive imagination (irrational exuberance) and political expediency. By the Middle Ages, not only the Diaspora, but all of Europe, embraced the idea that Jerusalem was the geographical and spiritual center of the world. Feudal Europe needed a rallying point, a symbol of unity, and what better than an imagined enemy, the ‘barbaric’ Saracens. After all, this was the site of the Savior’s doom, the city of God’s judgment, where Jesus was held captive. The taking of Jerusalem was the re-taking of Heaven. Ironically, the violent, abusive sacking of the city in 1099 A.D. by the Crusaders made Christiandom Jerusalem’s worst nightmare. “With friends like that…” Historically, Jerusalem has been a backwater. Its various conquerors simply wanted the locals to pay their taxes. No one had to convert to Islam. In 1187, the city was peacefully retaken by the Muslims. There was no vengeance against the Christians. Today, the secular, progressive Jews (Ben Gurion’s Jews) are leaving the city, which is run by the Hasidim. They are mostly poor because they spend a lot of their time studying scripture. In spite of their high reproduction rates, the city is losing 6000 Jews per year. Jerusalem has always been defined by its arguments, and its future is writ—fundamentalist alienation and radicalization bred

Laundry Detergents Recycling Mixed Paper
It’s pretty hard today to even buy one of the old phosphate-containing, bad-boy detergents, but there are still plenty of bewildering choices to make: “green” or big brands, liquids vs. powders, clothes brighteners, scented or fragrance-free, and HE (high-efficiency) detergents. To choose the one that best benefits our clothing, our pocketbooks, and our environment, first of all, check your washer manual for the recommended detergent type. Then, read product labels and select a cold-water detergent. Consider using fragrancefree products. A University of Washington study in 2010 indicated that many fragrance additives are toxic and even carcinogenic (and this includes fragrances in some “green” products). Current regulations do not require fragrance compounds to be detailed on the label. For an economical everyday detergent, choose one that is without
brighteners, enzymes, and whatever else is the new, new thing, then strategically treat special cleaning situations when they occur. When you need a heavy-duty cleaning boost, Borax is a great laundry additive in hard-water areas. Take immediate action with any stains: a squirt of hand soap, or even saliva, will do wonders on food stains if rubbed in immediately. Hydrogen peroxide works on blood, and moistened salt on red wine. Protect our resources, and the life of your clothing, through these simple actions: • Always wash a full load, but don’t overload. • Don’t wash clothes that aren’t dirty. • Measure detergent carefully. • Wash in cold water as much as possible. Have a green stain-removal tip? Share it on Facebook at Environmental Resource Center tws Idaho.
W
hen Blaine County made changes to our recycling program in 2012, we changed more than just our bin system. We also made recycling mixed paper a lot easier. Gone are the days of sorting newspaper, white paper, and colored paper. Gone are the days of wondering if a cereal box is really cardboard. Now, we get to put everything together. Mixed paper is white and colored paper, newspaper, magazines, junk mail, envelopes, cereal boxes, glossy paper, non-corrugated cardboard, packing paper, paper egg cartons, and similar items… but no phonebooks! Phonebooks get to be recycled separately. Make recycling mixed paper easy by placing a bag or box under your desk at work, or place a container near where
you open mail. Put a bag near your kitchen garbage can for household items, and consider donating magazines to schools to be used for art projects. Recycling one ton of printer paper saves about two tons of wood each year. In 2006, the U.S. paper industry recovered about 53 percent of all paper used in the U.S. The industry currently has a goal to recover 55 percent of all paper used… I think we can help meet this goal, and keep as much paper as possible out of our landfill. Mixed paper can be picked up curbside or dropped off at designated spots around the county. For drop-off locations and more information, visit www.5brecycles.org (and when you’re done reading, recycle this in mixed paper!) tws

The Blaine County School District joins 307 districts across the country to receive the prestigious distinction this year. The Best Communities for Music Education (BCME) affirms school districts that have demonstrated exceptional efforts toward maintaining music education as part of the schools’ core curriculum.
Music education in Blaine County is K-12, with trained and certified music specialists in every school and choir and orchestra teachers at the secondary level. “This is a reflection of community support for music education in our schools as well as our outstanding educators, students, parents and community partners…” said Superintendent Dr. Lonnie Barber. Blaine County is one of only two schools in Idaho to receive the designation out of over 2,000 who applied from across the country.

oviegoers at the Big Wood 4 Cinemas can now have their fill of film art before the film projector ever starts rolling. The lobby has come alive with “Film Art” featuring the work of students in Betty Ervin’s Studio Art class at Wood River High School. There’s Marilyn Monroe in a dress made of film, and a piece of art focusing on the “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Wyatt Caccia used “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” for his inspiration. Brent Contreras used filmstrips to comprise the trunks of digital trees in a Lorax-inspired portrait. Lisa Hart created a 3-D version of “Toy Story” with film, and Addy Gage did a visual interpretation of the conversion from film to digital. Students showed their art during a reception featuring—what else?—movie popcorn Monday night. Ervin said the movie theater’s general manager, Jeff Bacon, approached her at the beginning of the year, inviting her to have her students prepare artwork for a show in the foyer. “It’s taken a while for the event to unfold, but it will be an excellent venue for students to share their artwork with the public,” she said. “The students really worked on the quality of their art, knowing it would end up here. And Jeff made the easels to show it on. We hope to have students from other schools show their art here in the future.” Bacon said this particular exhibit dovetailed with the theater’s switch from film to digital this past year. He hopes this exhibition will give others ideas for ways to utilize the foyer for other exhibits.

Sun Valley Bridge Lessons Eli McNees: Tales From a Survivor student spotlight
BY JONATHAN KANE
E
li McNees, Wood River High School senior, has quite a story to tell – one about survival. McNees moved to the Valley from Princeton, New Jersey, when he was 10 years old and then contracted Hodgkin’s disease when he was 13 years old. “I just discovered a weird lump in my neck when I was in the shower one day and then it wouldn’t go away. It was pretty weird,” he said. “The first doctor we went to said it was a swollen gland but there were other symptoms. The second doctor took immediate samples and ran tests. The call came a week later that it was cancer. I was still pretty young to hear that and it was even hard to say the word. At first it seemed easier because it’s a form of cancer that can be beaten, but once I started treatment, it really hit hard. But the key thing is that I never got pessimistic because I strongly believe that attitude determines your health. Also, I have four brothers and sisters, and if I showed I was upset or scared, they would be, too. I just had to
live as normally as possible. It also sucked being at home, but soon I was able to play baseball and do other things that made life more normal.” McNees was diagnosed on a Friday night and was in surgery on Monday morning. That day they installed a port and began the radiation treatment. After that McNees had three sessions that lasted three weeks each. “My mom and I would drive back and forth to Boise. I would sit and play Xbox during the treatments, but you would feel really sick on the ride back home and your whole body would ache. In the meantime, I was scanned every week and they said I was in remission at the end of nine weeks. And then, of course, I felt sick for weeks after. People ask me all the time about the experience and I think it’s pretty cool. Not that many people can say they have survived cancer, but I can.” McNees said that while going through the process he was opened up to some great experiences. The Make A Wish Foundation sent him and his family to the Bahamas, and last
BRIDGE BASICS year he went to South Africa as part of the Hunt of a Lifetime Foundation and says it was one of the great experiences of his life. “Someday I’ll go back because they were the nicest people I’ve ever met. I also was lucky enough to attend Camp Rainbow Gold twice. It was an awesome experience. It was so cool to meet people with amazing attitudes despite their situations in life. It was especially great to see the kids from the city because they had never seen anything like the Sawtooths.” For McNees, it was just another example of how he’s been blessed for his survival and a measure of all that he has to bring to the world. tws

hink of flamenco and you think of a highly technical dance filled with lightningfast precision footwork, rhythmic stomping, and dress twirling and hand movements that resemble a passionate flickering flame. Accompanied by flamenco guitar, of course. But thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a third component to any good flamenco performance and that is the singing, says flamenco dancer Savannah Fuentes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People think of flamenco as dance. But the singing is really the heart and soul of this art form. In fact, originally flamenco was comprised purely of the cante, or singing, with hand clapping or palmas setting the rhythm,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing like it in Western music. There are very few flamenco singers in the United States, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m fortunate to be bringing one of them with me when we perform in Hailey.â&#x20AC;? Indeed, Fuentes will be accompanied by singer Jesus Montoya and guitarist Pedro Cortes when Ciudades (Cities) Northwest Flamenco Tour performs in Hailey as part of its 25-show tour through Idaho, Washington, Oregon and Montana. The three will perform at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Wood River High School Performing Arts Theater in Hailey. Tickets are $22 for general admission, $35 for VIP sponsors and $10 for students and low-income viewers, available at www.brownpapertickets.com â&#x20AC;&#x153;These guys are the real dealâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the best in the United States,â&#x20AC;? Fuentes says. Flamenco has its roots in southern Spain where gypsies, Jews and Islamic people converged in the days leading up to the Spanish Inquisition that began in the late 15th century. It even was influenced by the Indian dancers brought in to entertain royalty, says Fuentes. The gypsies were believed to be members of the untouchablesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;many of them circus workers, metal workers and minersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;who left the Punjabi region

of India between 800 and 900 A.D. They were herded into ghettos during the Inquisition, and that ended up safeguarding the purity of the music and dance as they kept it to themselves for years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They had a lot of sadness, a lot of sad things that they went throughâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;they were poor people trying to escape persecutionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and this is reflected in the music. Many of the songs are actually quite tragic in tone,â&#x20AC;? Fuentes says. Fuentes took up flamenco at 17 after being mesmerized by watching it on TV: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I heard the clapping and something in my brain activated. When I see flamenco, I cry. The emotion and

The End is Near T STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK
here were plenty of signs that the end was near. A snow groomer knocked down the superpipe that had taken weeks to build in just one day as spectators watched the Orage Masters anti-comp below. Two fairly good-sized avalanches barreled down the skiers’ left side of Upper Canyon last week, spilling debris the size of beach balls onto the groomed run. And Lower River Run turned into one giant slush pond in the warming sun, forcing ski instructors to teach students in between puddles before winter roared back in on Sunday, coating the mountain with five inches of soft spring snow that made even off-piste skiing delectable. Bald Mountain will close for the ski season on Sunday after offering skiers and boarders 143 days of skiing on the season that began with an amazing powder day last Thanksgiving. The Challenger chair on the Warm Springs side of the mountain remains open, as is the Christmas chair, offering access to Upper College, Christmas, Ridge, Blue Grouse, Cut-off and Rock Garden. Sun Valley is partnering with The Hunger Coalition to collect canned goods to fill empty warehouse shelves. The resort will offer two lift tickets for the price of one for those who bring 10 cans of food on closing day. Information: 888-490-5950. tws
A recent avalanche on Upper Canyon.
ary Austin Crofts frowned as she and her Great Dane/Labrador-retriever-mix, Jake, came across what looked like a tiny asphalt volcano protruding through the bike path north of St. Luke’s hospital. “Somebody could definitely get hurt if they hit that the wrong way on a bicycle or rollerblades,” Crofts said, eyeing a stretch of path filled with eruptions, potholes, even cracks that are wide enough to trip someone. “The bike path is definitely in need of help.” Crofts and nine other volunteers who call themselves Champions of the Wood River Trail are trying to get some RX for the path, which is nearing its 30th birthday. The remedy: Voter approval of a $3.5 million bond for a facelift that they say would put the path in good health for another 30 years. The bond, which will be voted on May 21, would cost homeowners about $21 per $100,000 of taxable value on their home each year for two years. If it passes, work could start in spring 2014, finishing in 2015. “We believe this is one of the best things about our community” said Crofts. “With all the healthy recreational opportunities it supports, we need to keep it healthy.” As the former executive director of the Blaine County Recreation District, Crofts helped build the asphalt path, which runs 22 miles from Hulen Meadows north of Ketchum through Bellevue. The original thought was to build the path on the stock driveway. Then the railroad decided to sell its rights, so Crofts found herself trying to convince adjacent property holders to connect all the loose ends. It wasn’t as easy as you might have thought. The highway department didn’t want the section through Gimlet and Cold Springs. Homeowners were afraid bike riders using the path would steal them blind. But others, such as sheep ranchers, were very obliging, giving the path their rightof-way through The Heatherlands and The Valley Club. “It was a difficult process, but rewarding.

Public Discussion for Hailey’s Water
Mayor Fritz Haemmerle has set an April 15 City Council meeting to address water and wastewater issues. Water service delivery and provision of a safe and sanitary sewer system are fundamental functions of city government. Decisions need to be made that may impact rates for both water and sewer services. Details regarding new rates to begin funding the costs for technical experts and remedies will be discussed. Info: Tom Hellen, Public Works Director at (208) 788-9815 x14 or Heather Dawson, City Administrator at (208) 788-4221 x18.
The Blaine County Recreation District will hold two public information Open Houses regarding the proposed Wood River Trail Rehabilitation Project. The first will be held at 5:30 tonight at the Community Campus in Hailey. The second will be held at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 24, at the YMCA in Ketchum. Planning details and maps of the project will be available.
“I use the bike path year-round for biking and Nordic skiing.” –Paula Perry
It made my life so much fun to go to work each day,” said Crofts. “When I went to work for the Recreation District, people—even kids—would ride on the highway. If the path continues to deteriorate, I’m afraid more people will start riding out on the highway again.” Today, the path is considered one of the jewels of the community—homeowners who once resisted the path now brag that their property is adjacent to it. A study using infrared counters and human surveyors determined that more than 300,000 people use the path in the summer for biking, walking, running and rollerblading. Another 50,000 use it in the winter for cross-country skiing, walking and biking. That means the path receives nearly as many visits per year as Bald Mountain, which gets about 420,000 annual visits per year, according to Sun Valley’s Marketing Director Jack Sibbach. Users like Leslie Haramis boast of seeing their first river otter on the trail. Others have seen wolves, elk, moose, even bear. “I use the bike path year-round for biking and Nordic skiing and every time I’m out on it, it reminds me of why I’m living in this Valley,” said Hailey resident Paula Perry. “It is a special amenity, affordable and acces-

sible for everyone who visits or lives here.” Elephant’s Perch owner Bob Rosso, another Champion of the Trail, says the facelift would not be just a patch job but a complete repair job. It would use new technology to keep plant roots from causing problems. The new technology should last much longer than the root barriers and growth repellent used in the past, said Crofts. “I put most of my life into this thing and I do want to see it kept up,” she added. “It connects our communities. And, given the number of people who use it, it seems like a small price to pay to get it healthy again.” tws

Ruffled Feathers BY JAMIE CANFIELD, PROGRAM DIRECTOR FOR KSKI 103.7 FM
I
love my job. I get turned on to new music all the time, and that’s just one of the perks of being in radio. A couple of weeks ago I got an e-mail asking if I wanted a new band to come into the studio to play a couple songs live and do an interview. At that point I had never heard of The Wild Feathers, but I downloaded their new song “The Ceiling” and listened to all six minutes and ten seconds of it and wrote back, “Oh yeah, I’d love to have them come by!” Last Monday, six guys from Nashville walked in to the KSKI studio and sat down to play, and play they did. I was blown away. Four
movie review
vocalists, two guitars and a dobro player all played their hearts out for two songs, and that’s all it took for them to convince me that they’re the real deal. Their selftitled debut is due out in June; and trust me, it’s something you should be looking forward to. Comparisons to other bands would just do them an injustice; The Wild Feathers have a sound that is their own. Four-part harmonies, blazing guitars, amazing hooks and songs that just make you want to hear more are what set them apart from the many young bands that are trying to make a name for themselves in this amazingly crowded music world. They truly set me on fire, and I’m predicting a huge future for The Wild Feathers. tws
Prehistoric Pablum L BY JONATHAN KANE
Jon rated this movie
et’s face it. In many ways art is entertainment and the critics question as to what is good and bad simply comes down to what did the audience think? And if you ask the same question about DreamWorks Animation’s new movie The Croods the audience, predominately 4 – 10 years old, absolutely loved it. Long after I was sufficiently saturated by its 100 minute length the kids stayed firmly planted to their seats and roared with laughter. That folks is pure entertainment and why The Croods is a sure fire hit for the young ones. Directed by Chris Sanders (Hot To Train Your Dragon) the story follows a cave man nuclear family as it struggles to survive in a dangerous and threatening world. There’s dad, voiced by Nicolas Cage, who feels the only way to survive is with fear and we explore his strained relationship with his teenage daughter, voiced by Emma Stone, who steps outside the cave to meet a young man, voiced by Ryan Reyn-

olds, who seems to have come from a more evolved species. Rounding out the group is mom, baby sister and teenage brother and a cantankerous Granny voiced by Cloris Leachman. The second act of the movie finds the family thrown from their home cave by earthquakes and in a search for a safer place to live. Here the picture turns to bright, beautiful colors and gorgeous landscapes as they encounter a wide variety of pre-historic creatures and fauna. Of course there will be some comparisons to the iconic cave man animated show The Flintstones but The Croods does not share in the same adult humor and sensibilities. This is a kid’s only affair but one that any family should be excited to see. tws

The Punch line
Fools Present Free Reading of Time Stands Still, Friday
Company of Fools will offer a free reading of Donald Margulies’ “Time Stands Still” at 7 p.m. Friday at The Center in Ketchum. “Time Stands Still” follows a photojournalist who returns home injured from the battlefields of Iraq after years of dashing between conflict zones. When her reporter boyfriend makes a pitch for domesticity, Sarah must choose between the thrilling but dangerous life she craves and the physically safe but emotionally perilous life she doesn’t quite understand. Set in a Brooklyn loft against a backdrop of global strife, Margulies’ Tony-nominated play depicts the intimate conflicts of a long-term relationship and the ethical struggles of a high-risk career. Under John Glenn’s direction, Company of Fools’ cast includes Beth Hilles, Keith Moore, Denise Simone and Joel Vilinsky. The Fools are offering the play as part of the Sun Valley Center for the Arts’ multidisciplinary project “Home Front,” which explores the ways individuals recover from and communities respond to the realities of war.

Feel free to peek at it since you’re unlikely to carry these bad habits over into the next season. As for those who don’t Nordic ski? This should convince you not to take up cross-country skiing!

JANSS RACE BIDS GO BATTY OVER GAMES, from page 1 move the ski team along. Wiseman, who plans to step down later this year, didn’t quite hang up the baton just yet. But he did introduce the audience to his successor, Rob Clayton, former head alpine coach for the Park City Ski Team and headmaster of the Winter School at Park City. Clayton will take over July 1. “He’s perfectly capable, he understands this community, he’s overwhelmed and I know he’s going to take this program to the next level,” said Wiseman. Clayton, who attended Saturday’s award banquet with his wife Krista, said between bites that he was blown away by what he had seen during the weekend. “I was attracted here because this is a community who cares,” said Clayton, who plans to move here in mid-May. “And these people care.”

hane Cordeau admits that his heart skipped a beat as he watched former U.S. Ski Team Coach Michel Rudigoz carry an Olympic torch into the Olympic Bar at Michel’s Christiania restaurant Thursday evening. “Let the games begin,” proclaimed Rudigoz before an elbow-to-elbow crowd of racers and sponsors gearing up for the 16th annual Janss Pro-Am Classic. The Pro-Am Classic was all about games this year as a nod to the upcoming Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. But Cordeau, whose father Joey Cordeau was a four-time World Mogul Champion, took it as an occasion to reaffirm his commitment to making the U.S. Olympic Team as a mogul skier. “I had never even seen the Olympic torch before—it helped me remember my goals, like how it would be so cool to see it at the Olympics,” said the 27-yearold, who finished fourth at the 2010 Olympic trials and was the highest qualifying American on the World Cup circuit before an injury ended his season that year. “To be honest, I’m not quite where I had hoped to be at this point. But I’m working on it. I’m anxious for things to get moving—I want it now but it’s months away, I have to remember, and do what I need to do to achieve that goal, like working on trampoline and riding my bike. And I owe the Janss race and the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation a debt of gratitude for helping me get this far,” said Cordeau, who paints Sun Valley’s lift towers during the summer, along with condos and houses. Many of the 200 racers who turned out for three days of skiing and partying this past weekend to raise money for the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation dressed as Powerballs and Clue characters as they chose costumes in keeping with the theme of games. But the upcoming Olympics, to which the Ski Education Foundation has pledged to send six athletes, was also definitely

Tai Barrymore said he’s made a good recovery from two ACL injuries last season. “I really like the Janss race,” he added. “It’s an opportunity to relax and have fun—and the Ski Education Foundation has been a huge supporter of me for like forever so I’m glad to be part of the fundraising event.” Langely McNeal
on the radar. A few of the teams, Parade of Nations and Greek Goddess Gladiators included, chose an Olympic-related theme for their costumes. And the list of pros leading the teams to battle on a racecourse set up on Lower Warm Springs included such Olympic hopefuls as Cordeau, freestyle skier Tai Barrymore and Langely McNeal, the No. 1 woman in U.S. Ski Cross. There are even a couple of kids, such as Jordan Fitzgerald, who served as a junior pro during the weekend’s events, who could represent Britain and the Virgin Islands at the Olympics. Ski Education Foundation Director Don Wiseman said a few of the young athletes originally thought to be contenders for the 2014 Olympics have dropped out of the running because of nagging injuries or other reasons. But others have emerged as possibilities. The Ski Education Foundation will have a third “6 at Sochi” fundraiser to raise money to support the athletes on Aug. 15 at Ketchum Town Plaza. Wiseman said he would love to see the community come up with $200,000 to help fund the Ski Education Foundation’s Gold Team athletes. “There’s a direct correlation between funding and results— there’s no way to get around it,” he said. “There are more athletes in this town who go to the international scene in snow sports than all other sports com-

bined. That’s our tradition.” “To be a Gold Team athlete, you’ve got to have results. You’re on the U.S. team or nearly there. And the thing that’s the weakest part for us is helping them with training. At that stage you’ve got to train and travel to compete and there’s no way you have time to work to pay for all that. It pays dividends for us in the long run, though, because a healthy devo team makes for a healthy community. These kids go out and come back—and we want that generational menu to keep coming back because they build our community.” McNeal, who served as the pro racer for the Greek Goddess Gladiators, said she was going to do everything possible to land a berth on the U.S. Ski Cross team. “You’ll see me doing a lot of explosive work at Zenergy, box jumps, that sort of thing. And, of course, I’ll spend the summer riding dirt bikes with my dad, in addition to doing some snow camps.” “This is a really good event,” she added, surveying the crowd of people as they socialized between races. “We’re so serious all year. It’s fun to hang out with friends and dress in costume. It helps relax and recharge you.” Cordeau said the Janss event also helps him refine his ski techniques. “I get to ski with a bunch of racers who make sure I stay outside and over my downhill ski. How cool is that!?” tws

Orage Masters Turn Dollar Into a Three-Ring Circus A STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK
giant pink flamingo and plastic palm trees sprouted on Dollar Mountain Saturday as the Orage Masters barreled into town. Teams of skiersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;locals Collin Collins and Karl Fostvedt includedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;entertained a crowd, sending three and four skiers somersaulting through the air at once as they vied for $10,000 in cash plus a host of other prizes. The peanut gallery, made up of skiers who had failed to advance into the semifinals and finals, congregated on the hill right beneath the skiers doing the flips. They cheered loudest for a skier who skied through a ring of fire, but to no availâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;his team was disqualified for using pyro-
technics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worried they were going to burn the snow down,â&#x20AC;? shrugged Sun Valley City Councilman Nils Ribi, who took pictures of the event with his cannon-sized camera. The athletes werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only ones utilizing snow piles created by Sun Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brian Callahan and Mike Gerstner. Even the crowd got a giant crib structure to party on, providing a unique vantage point from which to watch the competition.

Idaho Drug Free Youth Takes Part in Alcohol Awareness Month BY CHASE HUTCHINSON FOR THE WEEKLY SUN
T
his month is Alcohol Awareness Month. The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (NCADD) founded Alcohol Awareness Month in 1987 to â&#x20AC;&#x153;increase public awareness and understanding aimed at reducing the stigma that too often prevents individuals and families from seeking help.â&#x20AC;? It is our goal to not only raise awareness about the dangers of alcoholism but also put on a few events in conjunction with the month. Who are we? We are a component of the Blaine County Drug Coalition called Idaho Drug Free Youth (IDFY), comprised of students at the high school and middle school levels. We commit to maintaining a substance-free lifestyle and putting on various events that encourage other youth to feel that they can still have fun without these substances. On Friday, April 19, we are putting on a reality party â&#x20AC;&#x201D; an adult-specific event. At the reality party, a group of students will lead various adults through a party scene that exposes the dangers that come from drinking. There will also be a panel
of community members who will discuss some of the facts of underage drinking and encourage adults to not host parties for teens following the tour. If you want to reserve a tour and get directions to the event, please e-mail Julie Carney (jcarney@ blaineschools.org) or call her at 578-5027. The tours will begin at 5 p.m. and the last tour will start at 7:30 p.m., and they will be in half-hour slots. Then, on Friday, April 26, there will be a presentation to Wood River High School students to inform them about what they can do should they ever find themselves in a situation with alcohol and what they can do to help others who may be intoxicated. It is meant to provide youth with tools to deal with these types of situations. We encourage parents, youth members, businesses and the community to spread awareness about this month in support of IDFY. It is our goal to help combat the problems of underage drinking in this community and foster more awareness about the effects of alcohol. Questions?

Lowest Mortgage Rate Tips BY ANA TORRES
W
hen purchasing a home, the interest rate of your loan is of prime importance, as it can dramatically affect the amount you pay for your home. Depending on the amount of your loan, a 1 percent difference in loan rate can amount to hundreds of dollars a month which, on a 30-year loan, can mean tens of thousands of dollars going into or out of your pocket. Here are some tips to get you the best possible interest rates on your loan. Tip 1: Conventional lenders charge a higher interest rate for lower credit scores. This is a pretty obvious statement to anyone who has in the past bought anything on credit or has a credit card. The difference in interest rates for a 620 credit score and an 800 credit score could be as much as .5 percent. If your credit score is under 700 it is recommended you use a credit score simulator to help you improve your credit score, although it could take several months to improve your credit score. Tip 2: Make a larger down payment. Today it is common for lenders to require a 20 percent down payment on the house you wish to buy to secure a mortgage. You can improve your chances of securing a loan and decreasing your interest rate by increasing the amount to more than 20 percent. Why? Because you are making a greater equity investment in your house, thereby lessening the lending institution’s risk of making a loan to you. A higher down payment can mean a .1 to .15 percent interest rate reduction. Of course, the higher the purchase

For the first time, we will offer a hemoglobin A1C blood test. This optional test measures the long-term control of glucose for diabetics, and is available for an additional $6. All participants must fast for at least 8 hours prior to testing. Please drink lots of water! Heart healthy breakfast snacks will be served after your blood tests. There are two dates and times available for the screening. The first is from 7 to 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 13 at the Presbyterian Church of the Big Wood, Ketchum.

price, the bigger the difference. Tip 3: Pay points. Paying discount points can reduce your interest rate by a quarter of a percent. Points are considered a prepayment of interest, and each point is equal to 1 percent of the loan amount. On a $200,000 loan, this could mean $40,000 in savings over the life of the loan. Tip 4: Shorten your loan term. Typically, by shortening your loan term, you can reduce your interest rate by one-eighth to three-eighths of a percent depending on the loan term. However, you have to make sure you can handle the larger payment due to the shorter term. Tip 5: Buy a single-family home. Without a doubt, you will get the best interest rate on a single-family home. Condominiums, manufactured homes, and townhomes are considered a riskier investment because they tend to lose more value than single-family homes when housing markets are softer. If you increase your down payment you may avoid paying a higher interest rate for a condo/townhome or manufactured home loan. These tips are just a few of the more important ones related to securing the lowest possible interest rate for your home loan. Depending on which of these tips you choose or are able to take advantage of, you could possibly save $50,000 to $100,000 or more over the life of your loan.

Some Sticking Points BY ROSEMARY CODY
N
ineteen years ago I graduated from acupuncture college, received my national credentials and proudly ordered my first boxes of needles. What drew me to this ancient medical wisdom in 1994 attracts me even more sharply today. Here are some of the sticking points: 1. I tend to trust longstanding empirical studies. Chinese medicine has diagnosed, treated and prevented illness for over twenty-three centuries. That’s a long running history! The oldest text was written approximately 2000 years ago. And although this ancient medical system is constantly evolving and modernizing, the basic principles, which are based on the laws of nature, remain unchanged. Here’s the really short take: Blockages of energy create disruption, which lead to disease. Clear the logjams, toxins and stressors. With the free flow of energy restored, we begin to return to health. We are designed (like our text messages!) to autocorrect. Our bodies want to heal. 2. I also value evidencebased studies of modern science. Clinical studies are now gaining ground on thousands of years of experience. Search for acupuncture on Websites for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the World Health Organization (WHO), Cochrane Data Base and WebMD. Studies are numerous, including this conclusive one on the effectiveness of acupuncture for treating low back pain: http://www.webmd.com/painmanagement/news/20120910/ acupuncture-pain-relief 3. I prefer healing methods that are preventive. The old Chinese doctors only got paid when the patient stayed well. Preventive medicine ruled. Our national healthcare system is far too broken for this simple repair. But consider this: The majority of our healthcare costs go to obesity, diabetes and heart disease. ANYTHING we can do
to prevent these disorders will be easier and less expensive than correcting them. 4. If it works for animals, I believe it may work for humans. When I asked a client whom I could thank for referring him to my practice, he replied, “My blue heeler, Duke.” His old arthritic dog, after acupuncture treatments from his veterinarian, was able to extend comfortably again into his “tadpole position.” If it worked for Duke, the client reasoned, perhaps it could work for him. And it did. Duke’s veterinarian and his colleague also treated injured eagles and an elephant with a debilitating foot disease. Horses of ancient Chinese royalty were treated with acupuncture to stay in peak condition. Acupuncture’s success is not “all in your head,” as some theorize. 5. I love to observe interconnections. Chinese medicine teaches that the body is a microcosm, a miniature representation, of the universe. Within the body an infinity of other microcosms exist. One of the most evident microcosms is the external ear, where all organs and skeletal structures are represented. A spot of redness may indicate inflammation or disorder in the associated body part. At a California medical school, observing the ear to diagnose low back pain was shown to be as accurate as X-rays! It may seem illogical that ancient Chinese medicine has anything to teach our powerful high-tech Western medical system. But our search for a future that works keeps spiraling back to ancient wisdom, circling back to nature. Nature is intelligent, infinitely creative and interconnected—and can show us the next step. These are some points that tws stick with me.

Pears, Cinnamon, Pumpkin Seeds BY MARGOT VAN HORN
Atkinsons’ had 3-pound bags of Washington state organic golden russet Bosc pears for right under $2, so I bought several bags of them. They were really good, but I was also preparing for a little catering gig, so I had them in mind for the fruit side of breakfast. I decided to make poached pears, which, if not overcooked, can really be good. These are the recipes I use for the poaching of a pear.
Poached Pearswhole or quartered Serving size depends on the number of pears you use. Half to one pear per person is about right. Ingredients: 6 large pears, pared, quartered and cored 2 sticks of cinnamon 1/2 tsp., or more if you wish, fennel seeds 1/2 a lemon, sliced rather thickly 1/2 C. to 1 C. sugar 1/8 tsp. salt 2 C. water Optional: 1/4 C. to 1/2 C. toasted pumpkin seeds; yogurt or crème fraîche; plumped currants Directions: In a wide deep skillet boil 2 cups of water with the sugar, salt, cinnamon and lemon for 3
minutes. Turn the heat down and place your pears in the boiling syrup. Over low heat, cook the fruit until just fork tender; depending on the pear size and quality, that could be anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes. Be careful not to overcook because when you take the pears out with a slotted spoon, they’ll still cook a bit. Let cool and serve mixed with the toasted pumpkin seeds, which always should be sprinkled on right before serving. You can also refrigerate the whole mixture and serve the pears later. They’ll marinate in the syrup and be delicious. Finally, if you wish, you can also add some plumped currants or dark raisins to the whole mixture after the pears have been cooked. I prefer the sassiness of the currants. Manchego cheese wedges or crème fraîche go very nicely with this dish.

Margot is a self-taught, enthusiastic and passionate cook. Having been an innkeeper for five years at her own inn, she accumulated a lot of good recipes, which she loves to share. tws

Ask the Guys
Dear Classified Guys, After 35 years I decided it was time to renovate my basement. The 1970's look of paneling and orange shaggy carpet just didn't seem appropriate anymore. Since one of my neighbors is a contractor, I asked him if he would like to do the job. Graciously, he came over and gave me an estimate. I don't know much about renovations, but I figured he was trustworthy and reasonably priced. I was about to hire him when my son called a few other people who had advertised in the classifieds. Wasn't I surprised when the estimates were for thousands less than my neighbor? My son seems confident they could do the job. Now I'm stuck. My son says not to hire my neighbor and that he's just taking advantage me. What should I do?
• • • Cash: Sooner or later every room in a house needs remodeling. And from the sound of it, your basement is long overdue. Carry: If you have faith in your neighbor, then there is nothing wrong with having him quote the job for you. However, you do

want to be careful about mixing business with friendship. Even the simplest of jobs can put stress on a relationship. Cash: Your son was wise to get a few other quotes on the renovation. It's always a good idea to get at least three estimates for any project. Carry: Each contractor who looks at the job may have a different perspective and be able to offer you additional ideas. Cash: And, as you found out, there can also be significant differences when it comes to costs. Now before you hire anyone, take a good look at the estimates to make sure that each person quoted the same job. Maybe your neigh-
bor included material costs in his quote or had a different idea of the project than your son explained to the other contractors. Carry: If there are discrepancies, have the estimates corrected or modified so you can compare accurately. Cash: Then, if your neighbor's estimate still seems too high, you can talk to him or let your son act as a mediator. If your son has a better understanding of renovations, then it may be helpful to let him deal with the contractors. Carry: Before you know it, you'll be sitting in your newly renovated basement wondering what all the worry was about, minus the orange shaggy carpet of course.
Reader Humor Country Living
To remodel or not to remodel, that is the question. Updating the home seems to be on most people's "to do" list, but it can be expensive. Even with the fluctuation in the housing market, Americans spend nearly $300 billion dollars on renovation projects according to Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies. Spending peaked in 2007 and declined with the housing market, but not nearly as drastically. People still tend see a great benefit in updating the home whether they plan to sell or stay in their homes.
Needing a little time away from home, my wife and I rented a cottage at a beautiful lake resort. During our stay, the manager told us about a charming home that was for sale right next door to him. "You will love it," he said. A few months later, we bought the home. As we started to move in, the resort manager, now our new neighbor, stopped by to say hello. Again we talked a bit, but this time he was much more forthright. "It's a good thing you got this place cheap," he commented. "The roof leaks and the furnace needs to be replaced." Surprised by his newfound candidness, I asked him, "Why didn't you mention that before?" "Well," he paused, "We weren't neighbors then." (Thanks to Mark H.)

National Library Week April 14-20
The Hailey Public Library joins libraries in schools, campuses and communities nationwide during the week of April 14 through 20 in celebrating National Library Week, a time to highlight the value of libraries, librarians and library workers. Librarians work with elected officials, small business owners, and the public at large to discover and meet the needs of their communities. Offering e-books, materials for Englishlanguage learners or GED preparation, and more, librarians listen to the community they serve, and they respond. When the use of Hailey Library’s public computers increased, the library pursued grants to make updated software and new computers available. “Service to the community has always been the focus of the Hailey library,” said Director LeAnn Gelskey. “While this aspect has never changed, libraries have grown and evolved in how they provide for the needs of every member of their community.” For more information, call 208788-2036 or see the library’s Website at HaileyPublicLibrary.org.
