Lizzy’s puts the fun in coffee buying, giving Photos & Story By KAREN BOSSICK

O

ne woman told relatives of her pending birth by handing out coffee bags with a picture of her ultrasound at Thanksgiving dinner. Another woman toasted her brother’s 50th birthday by presenting him with a steady stream of coffee bags starting out with pictures of him as a baby and progressing to adulthood. Lizzy’s Fresh coffee puts the fun in coffee before you ever get to what’s inside the bag. “Selling good coffee in a boring bag seemed boring to me. I thought: Why not have my customers come up with labels that allowed them, their dogs and cats, their babies to be the stars? I just want my business to be fun and cheeky,” said Lizzy’s owner Liz Roquet, who even awards a month’s supply of coffee to those whose pictures she picks to put on her labels each month. The result has meant coffee bags featuring iconic Sun Valley landmarks, such as Baldy and Sun Valley’s red barn. It’s meant a series of “Bad Dog” labels featuring Fido and Rover caught in the act. It’s meant labels featuring Sun Valley’s top skiers and boarders designed to raise funds for Sun Valley’s Ski Education Foundation. It’s even meant labels designed by Hemingway students who wanted raise money to buy soccer jerseys for children in Montserrat, Colombia, where Roquet purchases a lot of her coffee. “My son Cooper came up with the idea. And I took the jerseys with me when I went to Montserrat to be a cupping contest judge. It took 26 hours to get to Bogota, then a truck ride along a road that had been taken out by an avalanche the year before, necessitating the farmers to ship their coffee beans by skinny horses, she recounted. “Montserrat is like having Ketchum’s Main Street on top of Baldy. And the coffee fields were on steep slopes like Greyhawk. The contest was a big deal for the winners because they got to take home a couple extra hundred dollars to their family. And I got to bring my favorite coffee of the 59 I tested back to my customers.” Lizzy’s Fresh Coffee opened in 2008 the wake of Icebreaker’s departure from Ketchum.

is mating call sounds like a dog’s bark. He’s named for his colorful belly. And he’s a force to be reckoned with by the inhabitants of this year’s Bug Zoo. After all, the fire-bellied toad has a penchant for bugs—from crickets to moths. Kids and adults alike will get a chance to meet this tropical bugeating character when the Sawtooth Botanical Garden presents its Ninth Annual Bug Zoo. This year’s hands-on affair launches with a Bug Zoo Festival from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday. And children and adults can continue to view the bugs through May 14. Sunday’s Bug Zoo Festival will include face painting, bug magnets, buggy games, the opportunity to eat like bugs do with their various mouthparts and snack craft, such as the opportunity to make insect cupcakes and cereal butterflies.

Cost for that day only is $5 for youngsters whose families are members of the botanical garden and $10 for those who are not members. Beginning May 2, more than a thousand schoolchildren will visit the Bug Zoo on field trips. The public is invited to check out the bugs free of charge from 1:30 to 5 p.m. weekdays and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 7-8 and 14. The Bug Zoo is designed to give kids a chance to learn about the many-legged creatures who inhabit this planet while gaining an appreciation of the natural world. “I’ve learned a lot about the resiliency of bugs after doing this for several years,” said Allison Kennedy, the garden’s education director. “The cockroaches, for instance, are amazing. Kids accidentally drop them on the The Luna moth, which is typically seen at night, has a wingspan meafloor and the cockroaches just suring up to five inches, making it one of the largest moths in North keep trucking along.” tws America.

2011 Heritage Court Four Divas chosen By KAREN BOSSICK

N

ot one of the ladies who have been named to the 2011 Heritage Court were born in the Wood River Valley. But all have developed an affinity for the land they have come to call home. “I love this country,” said Betsy Pearson. “I’m a soil girl. I love the field and the animals. The vistas have always drawn me.” Pearson is one of four women the Blaine County Historical Museum will induct into the court in a ceremony on June 19. A resident of Bellevue, Pearson is a former New York advertiser-turned artist who raised three children before moving to the Wood River Valley with her husband Bob in the 1970s. She has contributed art pieces to a variety of organizations, including the Cowboy Ball, which benefits the Sagebrush Equine Training Center. Pearson also illustrated the book “A Sun Valley Journal,” which features her distinctive paintings of popular events and landmarks in the Sun Valley area. Nominated by the Croy Canyon Ranch Foundation. Theresa Richards, of Hailey, was born in Iowa but moved to the valley in the 1950s where she married dentist Art Richards. A nurse and mother of eight children, she has belonged to the Chapter AM of the P.E.O. Sisterhood in Hailey for 50 years and is active in St. Charles Catholic Church. She also helped her husband Art Richards develop the Rotarun Ski Area west of Hailey. Nominated by Chapter AM, P.E.O. sisterhood. Maxine Molyneux, of Picabo, grew up in Murtaugh before moving to Kimberly after she married her husband Bill.

They moved to their ranch at the end of Gannett Road in 1952 and have been there ever since, working the land, milking the cows, raising a notable garden, cooking for ranch crews and raising five children. She also has been a mainstay in the Carey LDS congregation, with the Cub Scouts, Little League and 4-H. Nominated by the Trailing of the Sheep. Joanne Davis, of Sun Valley, has long served as an usher for the Sun Valley Summer Symphony with her husband Brack Davis. She moved to Sun valley in the 1970s after visiting here as a child in the 1950s and quickly embraced the skiing, serving on the Board of Governors of the Sun Valley Ski Club and racing each year in the Boulder Mountain Tour. Nominated by the Sun Valley Summer Symphony. The women will be crowned during an entertainment-studded ceremony open to the public at 3 p.m. Sunday, June 19, at The Liberty Theatre in Hailey. In June, they will also be guests at a tea hosted by the Ketchum/Sun Valley Ski Heritage Museum at the Ellsworth inn and a luncheon hosted by the Senior Connection. The ladies will ride in a horse-drawn carriage during the Hailey Fourth of July Parade, Carey’s Pioneer Days Parade, Ketchum’s Wagon Days and Bellevue’s Labor Day Parade. The Heritage Court was established to pay homage to pay homage to women who have made the valley what it is today, said Mike Healy, one of the organizers. While the women need not have been born in the valley, they do need to be 70 or older and have lived in the valley for at least 30 years. Including these four women, thirty-four women have been named to the Court. tws

Thanks to Bellevue’s Mike Rose’s Easter Egg Hunt, that has once again built wonderful memories for 50 kids and their parents. What started out three years ago of a couple friends and their children, to hunter Easter eggs on Mike’s 5 acre place on the North end of Bellevue, has become the place to be for an Easter Egg Hunter. 800 eggs hidden, two sawdust piles filed with goodies, homemade cupcakes and a pinata were featured at this event. This takes two weeks to prepare for and only takes the kids one hour of fun to build great memories with the families. Thanks Mike and your crew! COURTESY PHOTO: BARB PATTERSON

ax Stimac will be sporting a Mickey Mouse tattoo pretty soon. It just goes to show you don’t want to bet against the music students at Wood River High School. “I made a deal with my kids I would get a Mickey Mouse tattoo if they won (the Heritage Music Festival Competition), never thinking that they would. But over the years they’ve gotten better, better, better, better,” said Stimac, the choir director at Wood River High School and Middle School. Better is an understatement. In fact, it’s amazing the buses carrying the Wood River High School choir, orchestra and band students made it home from Anaheim, Calif., considering all the hardware they toted back with them. The school won the Heritage Festival Sweepstakes going up against 31 schools from the United States and Canada and more than 2,600 music and vocal students. Wood River also made a clean sweep of all the trophies. The choirs won the Choral

Sweepstakes and the band and orchestra, Instrumental Sweepstakes. Colla Voce was named Outstanding Choir; Dixie Band, Outstanding Band, and the orchestra was named the Outstanding Chamber Orchestra. In addition, the Concert Choir won a gold medal and first place; Colla Voce won a gold medal; the B-tones men’s choir won a gold medal and Dixie Band, a gold medal. The orchestra won a silver medal and first place; the concert band, silver medal and first place, and the jazz band, a silver medal. “To get the festival sweepstakes was just amazing. It was absolutely mayhem for our kids. They were blowing the roof off the theater during the awards ceremony they were so excited,” said Stimac. Wood River sent 137 students to the competition, which is “a very large, very serious music festival,” according to band director Tony Randall. The orchestra played “Saturn: The Ringed Planet,” “Autumn on White Lake” and John Philip Sousa’s “Hail to the Spirit of Liberty” before standing room audiences.

The Jazz Band played such numbers as “Aurora,” “Chapter One,” and “Isfahan,” a Duke Ellington ballad that featured a solo by Taz Lyons. The judges said they liked Colla Voce’s style of music, especially since there aren’t many high school groups like that doing original music arrangements. They were also pleased to see so many guys singing in the B-Tones. And they were intrigued by the Dixie Band since not many high school groups pursue that style of music. “The thing I enjoyed the most was how well behaved the kids were. They helped each other out and were very supportive of each other,” said Randall. Competitions like this one are great for the kids because they get to see what other kids are doing, said Stimac: “The talent level was just amazing. Every group was good so the festival was very educational for them.” Orchestra leader Rebecca Martin said her kids promptly came back from the festival and scored a superior at a competition in Burley. “They’ve started a tradition of excellence that I hope continues for years to come,” she said. tws

Colla Voce will be performing May 18-20 at The Liberty Theatre in Hailey. The concert choir will be performing May 25 at the Community Campus Auditorium. It’ll be the last time high school students will perform in the auditorium before it undergoes renovation, Max Stimac said. The band performs May 23 and the orchestra, May 24.

F

or Wood River High School senior, Michelle Krankkala her love of the arts and photography has melded with her other love of rock climbing. Dabbling in the arts since she was a young child her love of climbing entered into her life as a teenager. Today she has combined the two by using her talents as an outdoor photographer to capture climbers as they perform their art. “It’s the ideal setup. I can get paid to do my thing and I can climb when I want around the world,” she said. “When I was younger I was really different than my family. They are all athletic buffs and I wanted to pursue my art. I’d be with them but I wasn’t really happy. I’d have much rather been playing in the mud. I always loved working with my hands – to feel something and then to be able to form it into an object. There is so much strength that you can put into working with your hands. I first found photography when I was in eighth grade. I started first as a hobby but my science teacher said I was really good and that I needed to go for it. I started with a two megapixel plastic Kodak point and shoot but I was also given a whole dark room set up. Pretty much I shot everything and anything. I had the camera with me at all times and it was a lot of fun,” she said. “I had my first show my freshman year at Zaneys. It was totally exhilarating to see the reactions of people who were looking at my work. My second show had a lot more pieces and a lot more to choose from. Out of the 15 photos I sold quite a few and some of them were at the same price as a professional photographer. At fifteen I had my first photo published in a major climbing magazine and also got to see my photo run twice in an ad campaign. It was so awesome and cool to show it to people.” She is also an avid painter. “I recently completed two 4x6 panels for the hallways in the school. “They are going to be permanent which is special to me. I spend most of my time in the art room and really live there so it means a lot to have my work hanging in the school. I like working in a large scale including paintings of 10 feet by 6 feet. It just feels more satisfying.” Next year she will be pursuing her dreams of a career in the arts by attending the Oregon College of Arts and Crafts. “It’s a small school in Portland but it is very prestigious and very hard to get into and to stay in. If you

screw around they’ll kick you out without hesitation but they gave me a really nice scholarship. First I found and fell in love with Portland and then I found the school. There is so much climbing and skiing and the ocean all within an hour away. I visited New York but I was a little overwhelmed by the culture clash. I think I need to stay here in the West. I’ll still be pursuing my photography but lately I’ve been fascinated by metals and woodworking. I’d like to dabble in it and see where it goes.” She first got into rock climbing her freshman year, stopped at the end of her sophomore year and then rededicated herself her junior year. “I’m much stronger now and more disciplined. I like to boulder climb which means without ropes. I like it because it’s you and the wall and there is no one there to help you. I know how to do ropes but I don’t enjoy it. I don’t like trusting other people with your life and I don’t like extreme heights. What I do is about 10 to 15 feet up. When I climb it is a totally meditative period. When you’re up there you focus on the consequences but also on climbing. There is no feeling like looking at a boulder you are about to climb and to see that there is nothing to hold onto and then when you climb it and conquer your fears you feel like a human gecko.” It is clear, when it comes to conquering fears, no ropes are necessary for this student. tws

uch of the pain of the Great Recession is now behind Idaho as the 8,000 jobs the State created the past four months is likely to give way to stronger gains over the next two to three years, says Jeff Thredgold, economic consultant to Zions Bank. The unemployment rate will drop from 9.7 percent to 8 percent in 2012. And the state is well-positioned to being one of the nation’s top job creators if it takes advantage of low business and living costs and its attractive quality of life. “Right now’s the time to be proactive about hiring if you’re a business owner because you can select from many qualified people—something you couldn’t do five years ago,â€? said Thredgold. Thredgold, who makes a living forecasting what he calls “the dismal science of economics,â€? spoke at a luncheon sponsored by Zions Bank last Tuesday at the Sun Valley Lodge. The Great Recession, which started in late 2007 ended in June 2009—statistically, if not emotionally, he said: “We’ve had seven consecutive quarters of growth.â€? Thredgold said: • 2008 was the worst year for employment since 1945. But unemployment came down a full percentage point in the past four months—the biggest four month decline in 27 years: “And I expect to see that number continue to get better.â€? • In 1980 every college graduate made 25 percent more than high school graduates. Today every college graduate is making 80 percent more than high school graduates. • Those with computer skills are being paid between 15 percent and 20 percent more than those without. • One of every three college students is now older than 40. • The Internet is among the factors keeping inflation under control. Globally, companies will save more than $1 trillion in costs using the Internet. • Japan was once predicted to be so dominant that ski resorts were encouraged to label trail signs in both English and Japanese. But the country has gone through two lost decades and its economy had broken down on the side of the road even before the recent tsunami. • China, meanwhile, is now the world’s second largest economy with a $5.5 trillion economy compared with the United States’ $15 trillion economy. • Idaho’s export market kept the state from experiencing a deeper recession.

If you’re having trouble getting your head around the trillions of dollars of national debt that Congress is arguing over, just think of it this way: Think of a million dollars as the size of a marble; a billion, a beach ball, and a trillion something a thousand-times larger—like a hot air balloon. When Congress talks about cutting spending, they’re really talking about slowing the future growth rate of things like Medicare. “We need to slow growth, particular in the entitlement area,� said economist Jeff Thredgold.

Idaho companies exported $5.15 billion in goods and services to Canada, China, Singapore, South Korea, Japan and other countries—a record high and a 32 percent increase from the year before. Employment tied to exports support more than 25,000 jobs in Idaho—10 percent of the state’s economic output. Despite the recession, the world as a whole is doing better than it was 15 years ago. Then, one of three people in the world lived on a dollar a day. Now one of six people live on a dollar a day. India, which has the largest standing democracy, the largest English speaking population and the largest middleclass in the world, has slowed down from 80 miles per hour to 50 miles per hour economically. China, meanwhile, could be considered to have slowed from 110 miles per hour to 80 miles per hour. Contrary to popular belief, the United States is producing more than ever before—the country’s manufacturing companies just do it more efficiently. General Electric and other companies are bringing some jobs back from China because they’ve experienced so many hassles in China that they’ve lost control of their manufacturing process there. The United States is primed well for the future, considering the fact that the seven big growth industries are transportation, telecommunications, financial, service, energy, entertainment and the biomedical industry. Among the innovations: a telephone that can immediately translate the language of the person you’re talking with; antennas the size of a softball that have 10 times the capacity of cell phone tower, and an Internet that allows 65,000 new websites every 60 seconds compared with the five public websites that were on the Internet when President Clinton was elected. tws

St. Petersburg String Quartet, Saturday By KAREN BOSSICK

A

lla Aranovskaya was just two years oldwhen she began playing the piano by ear, mimicking what she’d heard her sister play. Instead, she took up violin when all the piano openings at music school were taken. That proved fortuitous for lovers of strings. Aranovskaya went on to found the Leningrad String Quartet in 1985 with cellist Leonid Shukaey. The quartet—renamed the St. Petersburg Quartet when the city of Leningrad resumed its historic name—has evolved to become one of the premiere stringed quartets in the world, playing the likes of Carnegie Hall, the Lincoln Center, New York’s Metropolitan Museum and other venues throughout the planet. The quartet will perform at 7 p.m. Saturday at the Church of the Big Wood in Ketchum. The concert, preceded by a talk by Caritas Chorale Director and former professional cellist Dick Brown, will be the final concert of this year’s Sun Valley Artist Series. A reception o meet the artists will follow the concert in the church lobby. “St. Petersburg is a city of such historical and artistic significance. They’ve had so many famous composers –and the Russians in general have had such an influence on music. To think our small town is having the ultimate crown is mind-boggling,” said Susan Spelius Dunning, the series artistic director. The quartet bowed its way to success early, taking First Prize at the All-Soviet Union String Quartet competition. It followed

Tchaikovsky Piano Competition winner Peter Donahoe called their collaboration “some of the most sublime moments of chamber music making I have ever experienced.” The quartet has recorded a number of CDs focusing on Russian composers, as well as classical composers like Mendelssohn. They teach intensive summer programs at various campuses and festivals in the United States and Mexico Aranovskaya is currently

teaching a guest residency at Wichita State University. Viola player Boris Vayner, formerly assistant principal viola in the St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra, now plays with the New England Conservatory Philharmonia. And violin player Evgeny Zvonnikov enchants audiences with tango and contemporary solos, as well as classical. The quartet will perform Russian composer Alexander Glazunov’s folk-inspired “Five Novelettes” during its Sun Valley appearance. It will also perform Ludwig van Beethoven’s “String Quartet No. 11 in F minor,” which is one of the shortest and most compact of all the Beethoven quartets,

Civilization as an obstacle course By BALI SZABO

In Celebration of National Volunteer Month, the Senior Connection is hosting a

Volunteer Appreciation Dinner

USA Today item caught my eye. A watchdog agency is looking over the shoulders of the FAA to make sure its doing enough to protect aircraft against birds and other wildlife, which it sees as a serious aviation issue. The agency wants to see what federal, state and local airports are doing to reduce this accelerating threat and nuisance. Unlike with the wolf or the prairie chicken, this is a clear endangerment issue, and one can only hope for a win-win mitigation. Low or no cost solutions to reduce bird mortality are usually available over a wide range of hurdles our feathered friends face. If there’s a will, there’s a way. The first challenge for the late April, early May mass migration (50 million birds hit the Gulf Coast every few hours) is suitable habitat for refueling. They will have lost half their body weight, they’re exhausted, in need to rebuild their body fat for the journey to their U.S. and Canadian destinations. Food rich land is a hard find. Forested bottomland, shrub wetland or drier shrub upland are ideal but make up only 20 percent of the landscape. The light pollution of urban sprawl and bright floodlights disorient them as navigation by the stars or the moon become difficult. Flying below 2000’ they slam into skyscrapers and the windows of homes (they see it as open space). Cities on major migration routes like Chicago and Toronto have implemented lights out policies during these weeks

this Friday at 5:30 p.m. Reservations Required.

to reduce the carnage. Bad weather is a nightmare. Birds have to fly lower and like moths, are attracted to lights and slam into everything. Another hazard are the 50,000 communication towers that dot the landscape, which, according to FCC regulations, have to be lit if over 200’. On overcast nights birds can’t see them. 5000 new towers come on line every year, some high definition megatowers up to 2000’ tall and anchored by deadly guy wires and lots of lights. They kill tens of millions of birds every year. Over 250 species have been found at their bases. Warblers seem to get the worst of it. We are currently experimenting with different lighting systems. Wind farms are another hazard, because they are often located on windswept migration routes like ridges and lakeshores. Radar can map migration routes, and the newer turbines can be turned off, like building flood-lights, for a few hours. New turbines are mounted on tall posts, much better than the triangular lattice work of older ones.. For now, the death toll from this hazard is 50 million birds/year. The American Bird Conservancy says our beloved cats kill over 500 million birds per year, based on 1 bird/cat/week. Cat owners, presented with these numbers, were asked if they would consider keeping their pets indoors during bird season. 70 percent said no. And so it goes - humanity’s collision course with nature. tws If you have question or comments, contact Bali at this e-mail: hab4nh@aol.com.

Skaters will dance through time—from the roaring ‘20s, to the throwback of the ‘50s, to the disco beat of the ‘70s--in their quest to win the Mirror Ball Trophy. There will be guest performances by Olympic Bronze Medalist Jozef Sabovcik, known as “Jumpin’ Joe Sabovcik,� and U.S. Open Bronze Medalist Darlin

Baker. And rumors have it that an un-invited critter will try to sneak past security and debut his own “Free Dance.� “And, of course, the audience will certainly be star struck with our Lady Gaga lookalikes,� said Skater Mom Andrea Nelson. The high-energy performance starts at 4 p.m. Saturday at the Sun Valley Indoor Ice Rink. It’s under the direction of Michelle Gentling.

With the Twilight series dominating at the box office Hollywood thought it might be a good idea to go back to one of the greatest romantic page turners of all time – Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. Published in 1847, the novel has certainly stood the test of time having been turned into 18 feature films and 9 television movies. Were you to go to the dictionary and look up the

description of ‘a chick flick’ you would have to look no further than Jane Eyre. Virtually devoid of any male testosterone, Eyre is one for the ladies (or lovers of classic literature). Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Movies were seemingly invented to lose yourself for two hours in a dark room and to be transported – perhaps in a luxurious period piece set in 19th century England. For that this version of Jane Eyre certainly works. Directed with a steady eye by up and coming director Cary Fukunaga the heart of the story remains intact and that is the will and fortitude of young Jane. This brings us to the movie’s greatest attribute – the lead performance of its young female star Mia Wasikowska. The Australian beauty has already had two standout

horoscopes

A progressive, industrious energy prevails. Mercury marches forward through Aries, giving the sense that all systems are “go.” The point is driven home by the conjunction of action-oriented Mars and jovial Jupiter in Aries. Mars was named for the god of war, and Jupiter for the god of the sky. The alignment of these planets favors the bold but cautions against greed. Follow your ambition to good fortune, but keep your karma clean. ARIES (March 21-April 19). You love challenge, but you also recognize that not all challenges are a good fit for you. Focus on what’s right for you and not what’s impressive to others. Take the stance that you have nothing to prove. Hang back and watch for a while. Don’t make your move until you are absolutely sure that it’s what you want to do. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Collaborations are favored today. Two or more minds on a problem will bring about a favorable outcome, especially if one of the minds is yours. You’ll think big when others are thinking small, or small when others are thinking big. Both modes of thought will be necessary and helpful. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some people have a fantasy of parachuting out of a plane. You can think of different ways to get a rush -- ways that require an equal amount of courage, but have a different kind of payoff. This is your week to actually go

through with such an activity, or at least get the plan in motion. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your independent mood might be unshakable for the first part of the week. Just because you’re doing the same thing as others and at the same time, too, doesn’t automatically make you feel connected. You know well the feeling of being simultaneously together and separate, and you can be comfortable with it. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Take another look at that potential future you consider to be a fantasy or wishful thinking. It is actually well within the realm of possibility for you. You just need someone to show you the way. Seek mentorship. This could start in the form of books and articles for now, but soon a teacher will guide you in person. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You don’t need to ask others how they feel about you. This is partly because you are astutely observant and can already tell what those feelings might be, and partly because you know it’s none of your business. Your self-assurance will make your relationships stronger. You’ll attract equally confident people. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Though you realize that you are dependent on your people and they are dependent on you, some of the attachments could be strengthened through a greater degree of autonomy. A certain amount of weaning will occur this week as you encour-

appearances under her belt – Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland and her sublime performance as the American teenager in The Kids Are All Right. With a stunning future ahead of her she easily portrays all the attributes of courage and will that have made her so iconic over the centuries. As for the romance it’s all there in its melodramatic excesses and muted violins. As the male lead Michael Fassbender holds his own and gives his take on the role made immortal by Orson Welles in 1944 as the man with a great secret to hide. Although this version stands out as a modern interpretation you can be sure that there will be many more versions working there way down the pike and making it to a Cineplex near you.

age others to fully take on their responsibilities so you can focus on yours. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You can’t expect those around you to be just like you, even if you are their parent, boss or teacher. Everyone applies his or her brainpower differently. You’ll appreciate the differences when you stand back and observe the way people around you interact on Thursday and Friday. Saturday features a hot date. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s nothing wrong with challenging others. In fact, they will enjoy the kinds of games you encourage and look forward to your proposals of daring excitement. There’s also a time to make things easy and fun. You have an excellent sense of which way you should go from one moment to the next. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). There will be intense moments of self-doubt to overcome. In the past, you were misled to believe that you don’t measure up -- a falsehood created to benefit one weaker than you. Find someone you trust, and talk about your hopes and wishes, which are, by the way, well within your abilities. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It is human nature to voice a melody or chant a rhythmic sound to ease the burden of work. Like a sailor singing a shanty with his crew, you’ll unite with your colleagues through language and noise -- perhaps not exactly music, but the effect is the same. Your tasks and responsibilities feel lighter. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Some people operate under the bogus assumption that what’s good for them is good for everyone else. You’ll point out the ways in which you are different. Talk about what you like and how you like to be treated. You’ll be a spokesperson for the rest of the group and lead them from oppression. THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: This year you are motivated to become everything you were meant to be. You will have the good fortune to rise above the challenges of the next two months, and your effort to do so will help you develop the confidence required to play at a new level, professionally and personally. You will be, as usual, more than willing to sacrifice for the good of others. But it is also important that you realize the inherent goodness of who you are is a marvelous gift in and of itself -- no extra work required. tws

Free talk by western writer Teresa Jordan By KAREN BOSSICK

T

he ink had scarcely dried on Teresa Jordan’s college diploma when she began racking up more than 60,000 miles through Montana, Idaho, Wyoming and other western states. The first woman from Wyoming to earn a degree at Yale University, she interviewed more than a hundred female ranchers and rodeo stars and wrote their stories in “Cowgirls: Women of the American West.” Today, Jordan is a celebrated western author, artist and storyteller. She will share her storytelling craft in a free presentation, “How to Train a Goldfish and Other Stories from the Open Road,” at 6 p.m. Thursday at the Community Campus, 1020 Fox Acres Road in Hailey. Jordan says the talk will draw on stories from what she calls “the American outback,” as well as a story from “not-so-rural” Butte, Mont. “She’s one of our classic Western contemporary writers and storytellers,” said Jenny Emery Davidson, director of the College of Southern Idaho-Blaine County Center, which is hosting the presentation. “I saw her speak as a visiting professor at the University of Utah. And, even when she was doing a reading, it rolled into storytelling. She’s very dynamic, organic and engaged with the audience.” In addition to “Cowgirls,” Jordan has written and illustrated a host of other books, including “Field Notes from Yosemite,” “Field Notes from the Grand Canyon: Raging River, Quiet Mind,” “Great Ghost Towns of the West” and “Home Land: Ranching and a West that Works.” She is perhaps best known for her memoir, “Riding the White Horse Home,” which draws on her experiences growing up on a ranch in the Iron Mountain country near Cheyenne, Wyo., where she attended a one-room school. It tells the tale of a beautiful yet inhospitable land scoured by a relentless Wyoming wind from the time Jordan’s great grandfather bought the ranch in 1887 until her father was forced to sell it four generations later when the agricultural crisis of the 1970s and ‘80s forced many ranchers off their land. “I became a writer, in part, to keep a hold on the land through its stories, if not through its soil,” said Jordan, who now lives with her husband Hal Cannon in Salt Lake City. That said, Jordan has little time for romanticizing the past. Her book, “Graining the Mare: The Poetry of Ranch Women,” for instance, tells some decidedly unromantic tales of the west, including that of a woman who as a little girl was lowered in a well every day to dip water during a horrific drought. “Many years ago, I heard a story about a woman homesteader who was so lonely that

symposium on friday

Teresa Jordan will also address the fifth annual “Passports and Passages: Writing as a Bridge between High School, College and the World” symposium on Friday. The symposium brings together Idaho high school and college English teachers to develop innovative methods for teaching writing.

she wrote poems on scraps of paper, sewed them onto tumbleweeds and released them to the prairie wind. I suspect this is apocryphal—I’ve since heard several variations. But as my grandfather used to say, ‘If it ain’t true, ‘it outta be.’ The story touches that part of the human spirit that not only struggles to understand its deepest concerns but also wants to share them,” Jordan said. Jordan is currently writing a blog that she calls “The Year of Living Virtuously (Weekends Off).” It’s a year-long meditation organized around a list of 13 virtues developed by Benjamin Franklin in his 20s. Jordan said she has always been an admirer of Franklin because of his great respect for differences of opinion being necessary to the nation’s vitality and resilience. “I only recently read his autobiography, and when I read about his youthful and audacious “Project for Moral Perfection,” in which he set out to practice each of thirteen virtues for a week at a time, it struck me that he would have posed the project as a blog if he’d only had access to the internet. He loved technology, he loved exploring ideas, he loved communicating, and he would have been absolutely delighted to think that

people could comment on his essays only moments after he had posted them. I have no doubt that, given the chance, he would have been our first blogger.” Jordan said she is too wayward and too set in her ways to think she’ll ever come anywhere close to moral perfection. “But I think that the virtues that intrigued him play out in our lives every day, and I find them intriguing to explore, along with a host of other virtues and vices. it’s the mindfulness implicit in young Franklin’s cause that intrigues me. How virtue and vice play out in ordinary life invites the big questions: What do we mean when we call someone a good man or a good woman? What does it take to live wholeheartedly? How do we learn to live authentically? How can we repair our transgressions?” tws

student reading

Several College of Southern Idaho students will present a reading of flash fiction—powerful prose pieces confined to a page or less—Thursday night before Teresa Jordan’s presentation. The flash fiction writing group has been working on pieces for the past year to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the CSI Blaine County Center. They’ve been working under the direction of Lee Stoops, a graduate student in the Antioch University creative writing program. “The flash fiction writing group has produced fabulous work over the past several months – great, funny, and poignant insights into our local culture and individual psyches,” said Jenny Emery Davidson, director of the CSI Blaine County Center.

Wake up with Java G

208-720-1254

etting a shot of Todd Rippo is like getting a double shot of espresso at one of his Wake Up and Live coffeehouses, aka Java. Energetic and direct, the man features business smarts laced with rock ‘n roll drive. He owns six cafes in Idaho and is a fanatic dad. Todd is nothing if not decisive. Here’s how Java began. It was 1991 and Todd had come to town on his Harley on a trip to “find myself.’’ One of his passions was coffeehouses and he had already created an “off the beaten trackâ€? cafĂŠ in San Diego that was wallto-wall people sitting outdoors around a tiny kiosk. In Ketchum, Todd saw a defunct cafe for sale. He called the owner but, when he heard the price, explained, “I’ve got nothing like that. Call me if things change.â€? He headed home. Things did change and a few weeks later, Todd owned the place and was living in its basement. To close the deal, he sold everything he had, including the Harley, and borrowed from three relatives. Was he scared? Todd laughs, “I was too young, too stupid to be afraid. Worst case, I’d end up owing relatives and would move back to San Diego.â€? Todd created Java as an amalgam of his favorite cafĂŠ elements: hip music, European feeling, friendly menu, energetic mood, and great coffee. “It wasn’t like espresso was a new concept here,â€? he explains. “People were savvy and I had to distinguish myself. But I started out with a stackedl deck: logo, experience, concept, and vision.â€? Java on Fourth soon opened, 7 a.m. to midnight. The first day he watched cars pass by – and earned $90 (10x more than his bank balance). “I wasn’t discouraged,â€? he says, “If I could just get people in the door, I knew they’d come back.â€? One month later, Todd celebrated his birthday with four staff and a packed house for breakfast. Growth happened: a second Java in Hailey (1992), then Coeur d’Alene (1994-2002), and

Twin Falls (1995). In 1997, the business plateaued – as did Todd. A rock and roll devotee, he had recorded an original song and been offered a development deal in L.A. He moved there to try the music scene -- and loved it: cultural excitement, songwriting, singing in his own band. Meanwhile, Wake Up and Live’s manager was running the business into the ground. When he found out, Todd “faced the toughest decision of my life. It was dump the business and stay in L.A. or return to Idaho and rebuild everything.â€? With his wife’s encouragement, he returned. “It was a complete lesson in humility, starting over, but I dug in and we’re flourishing better than ever,â€? he states with pride. In 2003 Todd’s daughter, Frankie, was born. The event stoked his ambition. That year he opened two Javas in Boise, one of them next to Starbucks (which has since closed). Hailey’s Java Primo, “designed for Chicago in Hailey,â€? opened in 2008 followed by Java at CSI’s student union. Now Todd has 90 full- and part-time employees, a responsibility he says he doesn’t like to think about. He manages his spread-out enterprise using a “hands-offâ€? philosophy. “I hire great people,â€? he explains, “and then stay out of their way. Once they’re committed to the passion and the culture, we’re home free.â€? Todd loves the freedom of entrepreneurship, despite white knuckle times. “I’ve always chased freedom, not money,â€? he says. Ideas of freedom differ, of course. If you want to see Todd, you’ll find him at the Ketchum cafĂŠ five mornings a week making oatmeal and eggs for his customers. If you miss him there, his band, Triple Nixon (see the website) may be playing somewhere that night. tws If you have question or comments, contact Jima Rice directly at: jimasv@cox.net.

Cooper Roquet’s classmates designed their own coffee labels to put on Lizzy’s coffee to raise money for young soccer players in Colombia who couldn’t afford jerseys.

Lizzy’s Coffee, from page 1 Instead of scanning the want ads, Roquet decided to start her own business. And coffee seemed the logical choice, given Roquet’s love affair with the stuff dating back to the days when as a 10year-old she mixed the drip coffee her father brewed in Pendl’s Pastries with chocolate, topping it with peaks of whipped cream. When she started treating friends to fresh coffee made from beans she roasted in her home roaster, she started getting questions like: How is it that freshly roasted coffee is better than what you buy at the store? “I love talking about coffee and educating others about it and I thought I could do that in my business,” she said. Roquet starts by selecting favorite beans from exotic locales like Ethiopia, Uganda, Guatema-

la, Brazil, India and Sumatra. She then experiments with them in her roaster, which is the size of a water heater, to determine what degree of roasting makes a particular bean taste best. She holds free tastings from noon to 4 p.m. Wednesdays at her shop at 971-4 N. Main St. across from the Knob Hill Inn, hoping she can persuade coffee lovers to break the habit of tasteless coffee that has aged too long on supermarket shelves. She avoids stale coffee herself by packaging two-week supplies for regular customers, some who subscribe online from as far away as Texas, Rhode Island, Alaska and Hawaii. “I want people to realize that coffee can taste so much better than junk in a can.” tws

An acupuncturist’s view of concussions By ROSEMARY CODY

“S

cott”, a 23-year-old competitive ski racer and college student, seeks acupuncture for complaints of difficulty concentrating, double vision, dizziness and intense headaches, aggravated by even short periods of exercise or study. He has a Western medical diagnosis of post-concussive syndrome. Iraq war veteran “Maria”, a victim of multiple concussions, also seeks treatment. She complains of mood swings, confusion, sensitivity to light as well as debilitating headaches. The brain is very soft (think tofu) and is housed in a really hard skull with sharp bony ridges. Give this structure a strong impact against a hard surface and you have a concussion. You may describe the experience as having your “bell rung” or “seeing stars”. It’s no big deal, right? Just get up, dust yourself off and return to the playing field or ski slope. It’s the American way: you don’t want to appear weak. Maybe it’s time to rethink that. Two million new concussions are reported each year. Research suggests that 50% of all high school football players will experience concussions each season. Even a “mild” concussion leads to a greater risk of a second

Dorworth honored By KAREN BOSSICK

Say it three timeS faSt...

ick Dorworth fought to maintain his tuck position as the air pressure rushing at him tried to push him backwards with an ever-mounting force. His right arm flew out to his side—reminding him of what it might feel like if he were driving down the highway at 100 miles per hour and stuck his hand out the window. Somehow he managed to jam his hand back in close to his body. And then it was all over. “One-seven,” an excited friend yelled from a nearby hill. Dorworth smiled, confident in the knowledge that at 107 miles per hour he was now the fastest skier on earth. That was 1963 in Portillo, Chile. And, since, skiers with aerodynamic suits and high-tech skis, have shot past this man who unbuckled his leather boots at the top so he could get into enough of a tuck. The current speed record is 156 miles per hour. But none have come close to telling the tale Dorworth does in his new book “The Perfect Turn.” Dorworth was awarded the Ullr Award for the book during the annual gathering of the International Skiing History Association, which was held at Sun Valley earlier this month. CBS Olympic commentator and Sun Valley homeowner Tim Ryan was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award at the same event. Dorworth’s book, published by Western Eye Press, contains 19 essays about skiing—many of them about skiing in Sun Valley

16

Dick Dorworth, who credits Baldy’s superb grooming for allowing him to ski every day at age 72, says he could tell within a mile how fast he was going when he set the world’s speed record. His training regimen included all the usual things like hundreds of stomach crunches and push-ups a day. But it also involved standing in a tuck on a box, his heels up in the air as he bounced up and down for a thousand bounces to simulate what he knew he faced on the not-so-well-groomed speed courses of the early 1960s.

or Sun Valley skiers like Dick Durrance, Warren Miller, Dick Barrymore, Zach and Reggie Crist and even Ted Kennedy, whom Dorworth skied with while a Sun Valley ski instructor. The final essay, from which the book gets its name, is a contemplative fictional piece about an old man who has never given up on the quest to etch the perfect turn on the snow. Raised in the Tahoe area, Dorworth came to Sun Valley in 1953 for a Western Region Ski Race. Smitten with Baldy, he moved here in 1962. “I’ve skied all over the world and there isn’t another mountain that I know of that has as much consistent vertical,” said Dorworth, who is also a world-class

rock climber. “Other mountains go down and flatten out, down and flat.” Dorworth, who has penned articles for “Skier’s Gazette,” “Skiing,” “Powder,” “Snow Country” and “Men’s Journal,” has coached the men’s U.S. Ski Team. He also was at one time the No. 3 Skimeister in the country—an honor determined by his showings in downhill, slalom, ski jumping and cross-country races. “Skiing has been a good thing for me. I was an angry youngster and it gave me a place to put all that energy,” he said. “Now I’m 72 and I still ski every morning during winter.” tws

Dirty Feet presents Retrofit

By KAREN BOSSICK Music from the ‘60s, ‘70s,’ 80s and ‘90s, including a piece by The Doors, will rock The Liberty Theatre in Hailey Saturday and Sunday as the Dirty Feet Dance Company performs its fifth show in three years. Eleven dancers—many of them natives of the valley—will present a mix of contemporary, jazz, belly dance, ballet and tap featuring original choreography. The show, dubbed “Retrofit,” will also reintroduce a piece from the company’s first show that proved a favorite among the dancers. Dirty Feet Dance Company was founded three years ago by Pure Body Pilates Owner Alysha Beth Oclassen, who decided the Woos River Valley has a strong

community of artists but not nearly enough dance. She named the company after her own penchant for walking barefoot across grass and through gardens. “The name also spoke to the organic quality of what we’re doing.. There’s a beauty and earthiness to making art with our own bodies,” she said. “We’re people who love to move and we just want to spread the love of dance here. “ The show starts at 7 both evenings. Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for seniors and students. They can be purchased at Pure Body Pilates and at the door. In addition, Dirty Feet will have a raffle fundraiser with prizes from local businesses the nights of the shows. tws

Ask the Guys

Dear Classified Guys, I've been a cash-in-hand man since I bought my first car in 1968 for $300. When I buy something, I buy it outright. No loans. If I can't afford it, I save until I have the money. I'm trying to buy a 2008 Jetta from a guy who is not like me. He owes $10,500 on his car loan, so the bank still has the title. He suggested I just pay him so he can square away with the bank and mail me the title. Seems awfully strange to me. How does one go about buying a car that the owner still has on loan?

• • •

Cash: That's an excellent

question and one that many people have to deal with in today's "Buy now, pay later" market. Someone like yourself, who pays cash, is a rare breed. Today, people commonly spend money before they have it. Carry: It seems everything is paid in easy monthly payments: cars, houses, appliances, alimony‌ Cash: No need to worry, though. Buying a car that a seller has on loan is quite simple. It just takes a little coordination. Carry: Your concerns about handing over $10,500 are correct.

Fast Facts Driving Costs

Duane “Cashâ€? Holze & Todd “Carryâ€? Holze 04/24/11 ŠThe Classified GuysÂŽ

There's risk in giving your money to a seller without receiving the title and a bill of sale for the vehicle. A better bet is to complete the transaction at the bank. Cash: Here's how your deal may take place. Once you've negotiated a price with the seller, ask him to make an appointment with his loan officer. Before your meeting, have two bank checks prepared. One should be made out to the bank for the amount left on the loan, in your case, $10,500. Have the other check made out to the seller for any difference you owe in the negotiated price. Carry: For instance, if you agreed on $12,000 as the selling price, you will need to pay the

seller an additional $1500. Cash: At the appointment, the bank will sign the title over to you upon receiving your check. Have them also fill out a bill of sale so you can register the car in your name. Carry: Purchasing a vehicle on loan can work to your benefit. Sellers are often so happy to be out from underneath loan payments that they sell the car for the remaining loan amount. You may be able to purchase that Jetta for $10,500. Cash: That's a far cry from your $300 purchase in 1968, but a good deal nonetheless. Nowadays, you're lucky if $300 buys you a good set of tires.

With the average new car price just over $28,000, most consumers choose to finance their purchase. According to the Federal Reserve, the average consumer auto loan has a term of just over 5 years. This hasn't changed much in the past decade. However, the down payment amount has almost doubled. Today, consumers average about 14% down, up from only 8% back in 2006.

Show me the Money

When you need a loan, banks are the first source that comes to mind. However, you could be overlooking valuable resources. Credit Unions, much like banks, offer the same services and are FDIC Insured. But because they are non-profit organizations, credit unions may offer better interest rates, sometimes as much as 1% lower. That can be several thousand dollars over the life of your loan. Check with your employer to see if a credit union is available to you. If not, visit www.creditunion.coop to see if you qualify for one in your area. •

Reader Humor Sign Here

As a loan officer at the bank for many years, I've experienced some unusual requests from customers. Some have great credit and make the process simple. Others struggle to meet the requirements. One young girl entered our bank looking for a small loan. She just moved out of her parent's house and wanted to purchase a car. After reviewing her credit report, I realized she didn't qualify. I informed her that she needed someone to cosign the loan. That's when she promptly replied, "Not a problem. My dad can cosign it." "Great," I replied. "Is he here?" She thought for a moment and then smiled, "Do you think I can just sign for him?" (Thanks to Tommie G.)

510 thank you notes To the Amazing Wood River Valley Community: This is a heart-felt letter of thanks and gratitude to this entire community for your love and outpouring of support for me and my children Claire and Chase. We lost a friend and a loving father on April 8th when Peter Westergard passed away. We are sad and miss Peter very much! It’s a tragic loss and we have a huge list of thank yous for everything that everyone has done for us. Thank you Hospice for your advice and grieving books for the children and to PEO for all the yummy dinners, cards and treats. It has been so nice to not have to think about what is for dinner next. Thank you to the Presbyterian Church of the Bigwood including Carrie Kotara, Sean Martin,Tai Suire and Pete DeBaun for all that you did to make the memorial truly special and a great celebration of Peter’s life. I also want to thank Devra Mary for helping at the reception and the Moose Girls for the incredible salads, brownies and cheese and vegetable platters for the memorial celebra-

tion. To the 3rd grade classes at Hemingway Elementary for all the delicious desserts and nice notes for Claire. Claire’s teacher Mrs. Remington, Mr. Haisley, Michelle and Miss Becky, and the entire school have been very supportive for Claire and we are very appreciative. To all the organizations Claire is involved with including Girls on the Run, Brownies and Soldier Mountain All Star Cheerleaders thank you for all your cards and support for Claire. To my employer and co-workers at Mountain Rides for allowing me the time off to help get things in order and support my children. To Pat Alder and Miss Laura from Miss Laura’s Daycare, for the loving, nurturing environment you are providing Chase right now while I am at work and to Maggie and Atkinson’s Park staff for your love and generosity with Claire. To Pete’s landlords, Mike Nowak and Lorena Kocher, for being so understanding and generous, and thank you to the Peterson Family for the many years of employment and friendship for Pete and for the really nice tribute in the paper last week. To Evie and Don Sauer and Jordan Davis and Petrea Mara for helping host our visiting family. Also, to all who have donated to Claire and Chase’s College fund at Zions Bank. I’m sorry I don’t know who you are to personally thank you, but I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate your generosity. I also want to thank my friends, who are also my family, here in the Wood River Valley. They include: Gene Daniels, Daryl and Mary Fauth, Shannon McLean and Holger Peller, Patty and Paul Eckebrecht, Melanie and Jeff Davis, Dani and Aaron Stern, Raul and Kristi Vandenberg, Tony and Sarah Gray, Svea Grover and Kristin Bevers. I apologize if I’ve left anyone out. It does take a village and I’m going to need your help and eyes on my two children as they grow into young adults. Thanks again! With huge amounts of gratitude - Love, Carrie, Claire and Chase Westergard and the Westergard Family **17** To the staff at the Sawtooth Equine: Although we were not able to save Mady, your care, concern, compas-

sion and professionalism were and are greatly appreciated. George, you did a great job on her navel. Erin, you’ve saved Miss Moon twice and put Pirate back together as well. Steve, you were a great help in Gus’s last hours. We are lucky to have vets like y’all and your wonderful staff in the Valley. - Jan Jorgenson **17** Show your appreciation!
