Entrepreneurs? Who? What? How? By JIMA RICE

ver the past two years, I’ve written for this paper about entrepreneurship from just about every angle I can think of, including profiles of local Jima Rice entrepreneurs; statistics about the role of entrepreneurship in rural economies; the need for us to learn more about economics to appreciate small business; the role of government in economic development; and the entrepreneurial subculture in our valley. Grasshopper Group, a business that creates products to grow small businesses, was founded by two entrepreneurs who know whereof they speak. Their website (worth checking out) states, “If you’re an entrepreneur, you know that ‘risk’ isn’t the reward. The rewards are driving innovation. Changing peoples’ lives. Creating jobs. Fueling growth and making a better world. Entrepreneurs change the way we think about what is possible.” One year ago, Grasshopper Group circulated a petition asking President Obama to declare a “National Entrepreneurs’ Day.” Six months later, the President agreed. The first designated day was November 19, 2010, the last day of National Entrepreneurs Week. This year, November 16 will be National Entrepreneurs’ Day. Jigsaw, whose non-profit mission is to support entrepreneurs, small businesses, and a sustainable economy in the Wood River Valley, has created the only local institutionalized outreach to help local entrepreneurs. And we are blown away by our constituency! In the midst of a terrible economic downturn, entrepreneurs remain an excited bunch of people who are moving ahead, learning with every step, sometimes winning and sometimes having to return to square one. So they struggle, to be sure, but birthing an innovative idea and driven by a desire to make a difference has given them a sense of opportunity that they will not easily yield. Since its inception in The Weekly Sun, this Biz Bio column has profiled 57 local entrepreneurs. Selection criteria include: Businesses that are new and have lasted for at least one year; Businesses owned and run by those under 40; Under-the-radar businesses; Entrepreneurs with technology inventions; Entrepreneurs with an improved or new product; Businesses that have expanded to more than one store; Entrepreneurs who rely on the Internet to do business; Entrepreneurs who live here but do business elsewhere. Meanwhile, everywhere you look in the Valley, you are looking at a small business! Whether they’ve been around a long time or not, a small business was started by an entrepreneur. No, it is not Microsoft or

Brazilian Songbird By KAREN BOSSICK

intia Scola Quecada already had plans to introduce Motown to her native Brazil through a concert this October that she will direct online. Now, she’s determined to infuse Sun Valley with a little Latin rhythm. Cintia Scola, as she’s content to be known, is a Brazilian songbird, who made the long migration north to Idaho two years ago to marry a 30-year resident of Bellevue. Since, the 49-year-old singer has leant her voice to the Sun Valley Hallelujah Chorus, performing Christmas and black gospel solos at both of its concerts. On Sunday she will sing a solo at Music n’ Me’s Mother’s Day Concert at 3 p.m. at Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Hailey. And she also has begun teaching voice students at Music ‘n Me, adding to the number of students in Brazil, Switzerland, Portugal, Africa and even South Carolina that she already teaches online. concer t. “That—and meeting Patty Parsons eir black gospel h Chorus at th ja lu lle Ha e th and her choir-- was so important to me ith wn Chariot” w lted out “’Lo Do because I feel like part of the commuCintia Scola be nity now,” Scola said. “I’ve got my kids here singing in have the cars, the buildings.

Hailey Fire Department cools off! Chase and Connor Schwartz, both 4, of Hailey, enjoyed 31-cent dips of chocolate chip cookie dough and strawberry ice cream last Wednesday as Hailey’s Baskin-Robbins invited valley firefighters to serve up 31-cent scoops of ice cream. Both boys love firefighting stuff, having gone trick-or-treating as firefighters. And they couldn’t have been happier eating ice cream while wearing a fire hat a few yards away from a fire truck sitting in the parking lot, said their mother, Jennifer. PHOTOS: KAREN BOSSICK/SUN

Paula’s Girl

Meanwhile, Brian Ernst of the Hailey Fire Department found out that taking orders for ice cream from a shop full of clamoring customers can be almost as taxing as heading out to a fire.

By KAREN BOSSICK

achel Blum “wasn’t that into prom.” A phone call from Paula Proctor changed that. Proctor, who owns Paula’s Dress Shop in Hailey, informed Blum that she had been named this year’s “Paula’s Girl.” And that announcement ushered Blum into a world of manicures and pedicures and more. “I had no idea I might be nominated to be Paula’s Girl,” said Blum. “It’s really an awesome, incredible, amazing opportunity. “ Proctor started the Paula’s Girl tradition several years ago, asking school counselors to recommend a deserving girl whom she could give a prom dress to who might not otherwise be able to afford one. As others heard about what she was doing, they wanted to chip in, as well. This year, Kathy Crosson of Panache offered a sweater; Dev Khalsa, a prom photograph; Kelly Moorland of Chic Nail, a manicure/pedicure; Larry and Jennifer Schwartz, dinner at daVinci’s; Kary Kjesbo, earrings; Marsella of Halo Salon, a hairdo; Tara Ooms of Tara Bella Flowers, a corsage; Lorraine Connor of Tom Crais’ office, a facial; Julie Watson, a prom ticket; Janie McClure, tip money; Holly Mora of High Altitude Fitness, shoes; and Shellie Lard of Third Floor Salon, a makeover. In addition, Keith Potter, a local firefighter, donated a $200 store credit at Paula’s enabling another girl—Breanna Glahn— to have a prom dress. Blum moved with her mother to the Wood River Valley in August 2008, leaving behind the town of Gaylord, Mich., where she had spent her entire life up until then. It was the hardest thing she’d ever done, she said. “But living here has completely gutted and rebuilt who I am. What once was a lazy girl, sleeping in until 12 and avoiding as much physical activity as possible, is now a girl who can’t sit still for more than five minutes…” Indeed, Blum has been busy in the Environmental Club, Art Club, Amnesty International, Model United Nations and Key Club. She’s volunteered as a dog walker for the Animal Shelter and helped with Winter Feast for the Soul and the Family of Women Film Festival. An advanced placement student, she hopes to study psychology and photography in college—either at the University of Idaho or Sierra Nevada. She also has worked as a

lifeguard for the Blaine County Recreation District, a barista at Hailey Coffee Company, a runner for Allen and Company and a clerk at The Loft. “She came in with this big smile and you could tell she really enjoyed picking out the dress,” said Proctor, describing the short, strapless black cocktail dress that Blum will be able to wear at other occasions, other than prom. “She’s a darling girl—very amazing, very smart. She even brought me flowers to thank me,” Proctor added, gesturing toward a bouquet on her counter. Blum said she definitely would not have been able to afford such a beautiful dress. “And every time Paula calls and says someone’s donated another goodie for me, I’m speechless that the community could be this generous.” Anyone who would like to get involved with this year’s or next year’s Paula’s Girl can call Proctor at 578-0888. tws

Heart Rock Ranch restores S

oon, it’s hoped, the chirping of birds will be heard across Heart Rock Ranch. But for now it’s the roar of heavy machinery that fills the air as a dozen bulldozers and excavators rumble across the ground, their big yellow arms digging into the soft brown dirt. Just a few years ago developers George Kirk and Bob Kantor had talked of building a small town here, along with a housing development of 38 homes. But this uproar taking place now is designed to create a better home for rainbow and brown trout that inhabit three creeks on the 4,600-acre property, along with eagles, heron and other wildlife. It’s a love gift to them from Harry and Shirley Hagey. The Hageys bought the property, which sits at mile marker 103 along Highway 75 just northwest of the Timmerman Hill intersection, two weeks before Christmas. And last week they invited several dozen conservationists, developers and others to their ranch to see what they’re doing to restore eight miles of streambed that has been downcut from its original bank by as much as five feet and is so degraded that it’s eight feet wider than it should be. Water temperatures exceed 70 degrees—far above the 40degree temperatures usual for cold springs, said Ron Pierce, a fisheries biologist. Much of the land was a floodplain before farmers began clearing it, draining wetlands and diverting creeks to irrigate the land in the late 1800s. The restoration work will include removing the topsoil, ridding the land of invasive weeds, planting brush along the streams to cool the water and adding cobble and spawning gravel. In addition, the Hageys will build oxbows—creek features that provide secluded places for spawning—in the process of raising the water table. Public fishing will be permit-

ted only at one public access point. “There’s gonna be a lot of change here, and it’s going to be dramatic,” said Dave Rosgen, whose Ft. Collins, Colo.-based Wildlands Hydrology designed the conservation plan. Shirley Hagey said she and her husband, a former CEO of a financial management firm in the San Francisco Bay area, have owned a home in the Flying Heart neighborhood north of Hailey for 16 years. The couple, which has eight grown children between them, plans to build a home on the ranch next year and they plan to spend the majority of their time here when that is finished, she said. “Harry’s always liked projects and when he started looking at the possibility of buying a ranch, Laura Hubbard of The Nature Conservancy suggested this. He said, ‘If I’m going to do restoration in the Diamond Dragon Ranch, I should buy the Spring Creek Ranch, too.’ I said, ‘Okay. Happy birthday,’ ” she recounted. The couple named their new ranch “Heart Rock Ranch” after the heart-shaped rocks they collect along the portion of the Big Wood River that runs past their Flying Heart home, she added. “I’m learning a lot with this project,” she laughed. “I’ve learned that we have four cricks, not creeks.” Hubbard said The Nature Conservancy plans to stage its 35th anniversary celebrating the Silver Creek Preserve on the property on June 30 with storytelling, live music and dancing and a silent auction. tws

A special gift

This Mother’s Day, you can give a gift that truly honors the meaning of “Mom.” Give wholesome food, and welcome hope, to the families in our community who are struggling to make ends meet. Offer precious relief to the moms trying to keep their families fed and healthy while facing daily challenges. Recently, The Hunger Coalition has seen an alarming increase in the number of moms coming to us for assistance. Many are single and working hard to make ends meet, but unable to pay bills and keep food on their tables. They come to us with little hope, feeling desperate and scared. The moment they realize The Hunger Coalition will provide them with wholesome groceries and a sense of security for the coming week, they can breathe a little easier and offer a grateful, heartfelt smile. They know their kids will go to bed with full bellies and wake in the morning with breakfast on the table too. There is a little more hope and happiness. The Hunger Coalition invites you to give a gift in honor of your mother – or any woman who has made an impact on your life - through their website at: www.thehungercoalition.org or by sending a gift directly to: 121 Honeysuckle Street Bellevue, ID 83313. A special note will be sent to her, sharing your thoughtfulness and generosity on her behalf and thanking her for being such an inspiration! You are also invited to share a special story about your Mom on The Hunger Coalition’s Facebook page, simply search “Blaine County Hunger Coalition.”

The Crystal Creek Ranch that now forms part of Heart Rock Ranch was claimed by Charles M. Black under the Timber Culture Act in 1878 or 1879 following the Bannock War. He named it after a nearby stream and satisfied the Act’s requirements by taking young cottonwood saplings from the riverbanks and planting them in rows on his claim, according to a report filed by the Idaho Historical Society’s Madeline Buckendorf for Will Miller Consulting. Black emmigrated to Idaho from Missouri with his wife and children in 1864. The family settled at Dixie, near present-day Caldwell, for a year. Then they started a ranch along Blacks Creek 15 miles southeast of Boise. The ranch served as a stage stop for John Hailey’s line from Boise to Kelton, Utah. Black raised cattle on his 240 acres along Crystal Creek. He lived in a small cabin near the Big Wood River and built two more houses along Crystal Creek as he prospered. Prices collapsed following World War I, but Charles’ sons William and Jeffery continued operating a creamery. The home ranch was taken over by Idaho First National Bank in 1923—three years after Charles died in 1920. Isaac W. Garrett, a Placerville butcher, was one of the first to claim land within the boundaries of what constituted the Spring Creek Ranch on the southern end of Heart Rock Ranch. He moved his family there in 1880, filing a claim under the Timber Culture Act in 1881. Garrett served in the territorial legislature, helping to pass a law that moved the Alturas County seat to Hailey. He and his family moved to Hailey in 1883, leaving the land to be settled by those who had helped the army during the Bannock War.

The Hailey Tree Committee announced that Arbor Day in Hailey will be celebrated from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., this Saturday, May 7, at Hop Porter Park. Festivities will include food and drink, an “Ask an Arborist” booth staffed by local certified arborists, fun for the kids including a bouncy house and, of course, tree planting demonstrations and lots of useful tree information for all. Hailey is also celebrating a transplanting effort involving moving trees from the Rodeo Grounds re-development site to Hop Porter Park. The transplanted trees helped fill gaps in Hailey’s urban forest canopy following a large risk mitigation project in 2009. Ketchum’s Arbor Day celebration will involve after school program children and their parents with the Parks & Recreation Department. The event is open to all. Kids will learn about proper planting techniques and the importance of trees in our urban environment from Community Forestry Division staff members. Ketchum’s Arbor Day tree will be planted in memory of long-time Friend of Atkinson Park, Jim Hitson. Ketchum’s Arbor Day is from 3 to 4 p.m., this Friday, May 6, at Atkinson Park.

Wood River High School Senior Taylor Hayes

Hayes’ is passionate about reading books By JONATHAN KANE

ood River High School senior Taylor Hayes is both an athlete and a scholar. Sporting a 3.97 grade point average, Hayes is also an integral member of both the school’s soccer and basketball teams. Born in Boise, she moved here at the age of six months when her father took a job at Smith Optics. She currently lives in Deerfield in Hailey and, along the way, attended Bellevue Elementary, Hailey Elementary, Wood River Middle School and now the high school. “I never really appreciated it here until I started to reflect back on my childhood,” she said. “I just feel so privileged to grow up here. There’s the outdoors, the people and it is such an outstanding community. It’s just such a friendly place. I really loved growing up here. I can remember playing ‘capture the flag’ and playing until it was dark and being called in by my mother. Everyone just knows everyone else and you feel so close and safe. I don’t know what I’ll do next year at school because here everyone’s looking out for you. Whenever you go to the store you’ll meet at least 10 people – either they play soccer with you or they know your dad or they took piano lessons with you. I feel so sheltered here. You can even leave your car unlocked at night with your paycheck still in it.” She added, “The mountains and the outdoor activities to participate in are amazing. In the summers, I love to sit in the river and also to float it. I also love to run. There is such a great advantage to being in the clean air, and the scenery is incredible. Running is just a tremendous way to relieve stress.” Hayes has been able to leave the Valley on occasion and see life in the big city. She has been to San Diego, Portland, Seattle and Hawaii. “I can’t wait to go east. I really love Seattle and was lucky to go there for a week. There were just so many people to see and so many cultures– there was also a Starbucks on every corner! I think I’ll probably end up, though, in a place like Ketchum—there’s just too much small town in me. But I

can see myself living in a city in my twenties before I start a family. When I do come back from visiting a city, it’s always a little bittersweet because you’ve just left a great place—especially Hawaii, when I was heartbroken to leave the beach. Otherwise, I’m always happy to be back in the mountains.” In the meantime, Hayes is finishing out her senior year at Wood River with a 3.97 gpa and courses in Advanced Placement calculus and applied physics. “This Valley is extremely lucky to have the kind of education that it offers. We have a tremendous amount of A.P. courses offered plus so many extracurricular activities like the robotics team, chess club and varsity teams like soccer and basketball. We also have brilliant teachers and brilliant students. We’re so lucky to have each other to feed off of. It’s also a great place to be if you don’t know how to do something – someone else will! I’ve loved all my teachers. They are so knowledgeable about the subjects they teach and passionate about their students. Mr. Boatwright loves history and he can talk about it for days. Amy Swanson helps out her calculus students and anyone else who needs it – she is always at the school and available each day at 7:40 a.m.” Most of her free time is devoted to reading. “I read every day and really love it. In kindergarten I read at a third-grade level. Reading gives you a break from real life and allows you to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. You get to put yourself in someone else’s shoes and go on an adventure. It’s much better than watching a movie. My favorites are mysteries and fantasy because they are unlike what I’ve experienced here or experiences that will never happen. I love the Harry Potter books but I don’t want to be a witch. I just want to live my life to the fullest and be a happy person.” With a bright future, there is no need to worry about that. tws Each week, Jonathan Kane will be profiling a local high-school student.

he first record Sun Valley resident Fred Bieker ever bought was Russian composer Alexander Glazunovâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Five Novelettes.â&#x20AC;? The grandson of a former Czechoslovakian orchestra musician, Bieker was a pre-med student working at a Chicago department store during Christmas break that 1951. Memories of listening to that recording over and over came flooding back Saturday night as Bieker sat on the front row of the Church of the Big Wood, a radiant smile on his face as he listened to the vaunted St. Petersburg Quartet perform the exotic sounds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was in heaven,â&#x20AC;? said Bieker who had requested that the quartet play it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As far as I know, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only one other quartet that ever recorded this piece. And you never hear it on radio.â&#x20AC;? The quartet played with a depth of feeling that seemed a step above many chamber ensembles as they performed Beethovenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;String Quartet No. 11 in F minor,â&#x20AC;? alternatively furiously and tender, punctuated with rapid-fire runs. Violin player Alia Aranovskaya, who led the group, appeared to play as if she was in a dreamlike state, scarcely paying note to the notes on the page in front of her even as her fellow musicians punctuated their performances with stern Russian-like shakes of their heads. The performance captivated the audience. Nelda Kendall, who used to play the viola, intently watched the group, occasionally shooting a side smile at her husband Bob while cringing every time audience members broke into applause at the wrong time. Evelyn Lee found herself breathless watching the blurry moves of the musiciansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fingers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how they can

move their fingers so fast to do the vibrato. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s making my wrist tired watching them,â&#x20AC;? she said. Caritas Chorale Director Dick Brown, who doubles as a professional cellist, told the audience before the performance that playing chamber music with a quartet was the most wonderful experience of his life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The greatest instrument is the human voice and the stringed instruments come closest to that with the cello mimicking the baritone and the violin, the soprano,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For me and many of these players, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the ultimate in making music--a wonderful give and take. You get to look at each other and interact with each other. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a thing of intimacy. And you understand all the nuances.â&#x20AC;? Early chamber music was written for the wealthy who could play and wanted to have fun. It reached its height with Beethoven, Schubert, Hayden and Mendelssohn, Brown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For a long time you had to write string quartets to be accepted as a musician,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun to watch whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading and whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s following, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading and whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taking.â&#x20AC;?

It also plans to reintroduce its Great Composer Series in September with a performance lecture on Franz Liszt who se 200th birthday is being feted this year.

The performance shifted to the Elkhorn home of Susan Spelius Dunning on Sunday night as she closed out the second season of the Sun Valley Artist Series by playing Brahms Piano Quartet in G Minor with the quartet. A bird flitted by the window behind Dunning as she played, apparently trying to get closer to the music, which resounded throughout the neighborhood. The sun slowly settled in the west as the performers made their way through the 40-minute piece. When they paused, the audience of 60 scarcely breathed. Then theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d plunge on with emphatic emphases that bounced off the cathedral ceilings. They played so seamlessly that a newcomer would have thought Dunning had been touring with the group. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I played violin for many years and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never heard such virtuosity,â&#x20AC;? said Nicole Brown. tws

Ketchum Arts Festival - Meet the Artist Series

Maureen Jenner

aureen Jenner, local clay artist, will be a featured artist at the booth of Boulder Mountain Clayworks at the Ketchum Arts Festival this summer. Clay is fun and challenging for Maureen. She loves the process of working in three dimensions and finds it is as much fun as getting the final work out of the kiln. Every day is a learning experience; those creative juices keep flowing. Maureenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pieces are whimsical and show a real appreciation for the plasticity of the clay. Maureen graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in elementary education and a minor in fine arts. She taught school for 22 years in many various innercity classrooms and taught elementary science for seven years with the local Community School. Maureenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current

community involvement includes sitting on the board of directors at Boulder Mountain Clayworks and the Snake River Alliance. Maureen invites you to see her work at the Boulder Mountain Clayworks booth during the Ketchum Arts Festival, which takes place July 8-10, 2011, at Festival Meadows between Sun Valley and Ketchum on Sun Valley Road.

Dance classes offered by Bates By KAREN BOSSICK

ale Bates promises it will be kind of like â&#x20AC;&#x153;Paint by Number.â&#x20AC;? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be no counting in his dance workshop. No steps. Just moving to the music and understanding something Bates calls â&#x20AC;&#x153;the lead follow agreement.â&#x20AC;? Bates and his wife Peggy are teaching a four-class workshop on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fun-damentals of Partnership Dancingâ&#x20AC;? in May. The format frees the leader from the pressure of learning the steps while trying to learn how

to lead, he said. Dancers will learn how to dance with a partner to any music, any time, anywhere, and look good and have fun while doing it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ballroom, Latin, swingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;you name it, you can dance it,â&#x20AC;? Bates said. The four-class workshop will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning this week at a North Valley location. It costs $80 per person and a partner is required. Call 720-3350 or e-mail peggydbates@gmail.com to register.

Caritas to perform A Psalm of David Saturday, Sunday By KAREN BOSSICK

he Caritas Chorale will perform three of the most difficult pieces itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done to date on Saturday and Sunday. The choir will perform â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Psalm of Davidâ&#x20AC;? by composer Norman Dello Joio, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;O Magnum Mysteriumâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;O Nata Luxâ&#x20AC;? by composer Morten Lauridsen. R.L. Rowsey will accompany the choir on piano. The concerts start at 2:30 p.m. both days at St. Thomas Episcopal Church on Sun Valley Road. Both concerts are free, but donations to help pay for sheet music and other expenses will certainly be accepted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Psalm of Davidâ&#x20AC;? is an â&#x20AC;&#x153;extremely dramaticâ&#x20AC;? piece that features King David begging for forgiveness, said Chorale Director Dick Brown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is the most penitential of the psalms,â&#x20AC;? added Brown, whose Anam Cara Choir performed the piece in 2007. Joio, a contemporary composer who died in 2008, was born Nicodemo DeGioio in New York City to Italian immigrants. He learned piano at age 4 from his father, who coached many of the Metropolitan Opera stars. He studied organ as a teenager with his godfather Pietro Yon, the organist at St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cathedral, and received a scholarship to The Juilliard School of Music. He was considered one of Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foremost composers by the late 1940s as he composed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fantasies on a Theme by Haydnâ&#x20AC;? and works for dancer Martha Graham. He won the 1957 Pulitzer Prize for Music for

And he won a 1965 Emmy for his score to an NBC TV special, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Louvre.â&#x20AC;? Known for the unique touch of mixing traditional chants with jazzy rhythms, he introduced â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Psalm of Davidâ&#x20AC;? to the public in 1951, describing the oratorio as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a 20th-century treatment of early French and Italian music.â&#x20AC;? Lauridsen was composer-inresidence of the Los Angeles Master Chorale from 1994 to 2001 and professor of composition at the University of Southern California for more than 30 years. His motets are â&#x20AC;&#x153;beautiful and melodic, offering a peaceful light

unto the world,â&#x20AC;? Brown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both look back at Christmas. One is about how at the birth of Christ even the animals bowed to him.â&#x20AC;? tws

Get Bug-Eyed! By KAREN BOSSICK

orin Vandenburg took a tongue depressor in each hand and tried to lift a gummi worm with it as if she were going to eat it. She succeeded on the first attempt. But, deciding the task was too laborious on subsequent attempts, the toddler dropped the “pincers” that she would have eaten with if she were an ant. It can be tedious being a bug! Youngsters got a bug’s eye view of the world Sunday at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden’s ninth annual Bug Zoo Festival. About 350 flocked to the garden where they got to eyeball and handle a few dozen bugs and build their own bugs out of felt balls and GORP.

More than a thousand school children are expected to see the bugs via field trips over the next two weeks. And the public can see them 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. Spencer Ferries tried on plastic bug eyes, finding that a bug sees its world through octagonal patterns. Other children tried exercises that demonstrated how different insects eat. They stuck straws through plastic wrap into red Kool-Aid to simulate how mosquitoes drill through our skin to get to the blood within. And they used a clothespin to mimic a damselfly’s jaws. Four-year-old Kiara Quispe tried her hand a making a bumblebee cupcake that Michelle Peck had designed, learning about bumblebee anatomy as she

attached the antennae and other parts. And two-year-old Jayden Crist kept a close hand on Grandpa Roger as Joseph Patterson tried to coach her to touch an African giant black millipede, supposedly one of the oldest known land mammals. Adults, meanwhile, seemed to enjoy reading bug trivia posted on the insects’ cages. Like how the bess bug is a talkative little fellow, making up to 14 distinctive sounds. Or how the Madagascar hissing cockroach from Africa hisses when picked up. “How many hearts does an earthworm have? Five,” mused one. “That’s a lot of cholesterol to worry about.” tws

By KAREN BOSSICK If Sarah Hope and David Fox were in Hollywood, they would be tripping down the red carpet at the Academy Awards. As it was, Hope won Best Actress and Fox won Best Supporting Actor at last weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s One-Act Festival at Idaho State University in Pocatello. And both were selected to the All-Star Cast Team. Wood River High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drama team also turned in a strong performance, taking the runner-up position behind Pocatello High School among the 11 teams in the competition. The team presented a one-act played titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dr. Fritz: Or the Forces of Light.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a big deal because we placed better than schools like Blackfoot, Highland, Century, Twin Falls, and Skyline, which are not only bigger, but have great drama tradition,â&#x20AC;? said Drama Coach Karl Nordstrom.

Grand Opening to Benefit Shelter

The Dollhouse Consignment Boutiqueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second location is now open. This new location, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Rainbowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s End,â&#x20AC;? will offer Hailey shoppers the same high-quality and fun merchandise found in the Ketchum store. Owner Lara Spencer has generously committed to donate 5 percent of all sales in the first week at the Hailey location to the Animal Shelter of the Wood River Valley. The store will be open 11 a.m.-5 p.m., Tuesday-Saturday. The Dollhouse already supports the shelter with regular donations of goods from the store, some of which are featured in the fashion show portion of the shelterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dog Days of Summerâ&#x20AC;? benefit. This brief show is designed to highlight the great finds available at the shelterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thrift store, the Barkinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Basement. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s benefit will be held on Friday, July 15. For more info, visit The Dollhouseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website at www.dollhouseconsignment.com or the Animal Shelterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s site at www.animalshelterwrv.org.

Clockwise from above: Adam Kind had his work cut out for him as the Bugle Boy. The Lady Gaga lookalikes, comprised of Gracie Eagan, Telar McClure, Nicole Pratt, Caitlin Sholtis and Tara Ware found themselves being pursued by paparazzi Sam Laski and Kenny Pratt. Cyndi Dufur passed out cake pops to VIPS seated along the ice.

ouldn’t it be super cool to go back in time and to be present at something like the birth of the Beatles. To see Liverpool, England in 1955 and to witness the personal connections that would create one of the greatest bands in rock and roll history. In the new film Nowhere Boy, a bio pic about the fifteen year old John Lennon, we get some of this promised premise but not the whole thing. Nowhere Boy is more the intricate story of how an iconic artist was molded by

two women in his life and his decision to embrace the new era of Elvis Presley more than it is the formation of the Beatles. In fact the word Beatles is never heard in the movie which will intrigue anyone attending the picture. The two women who battle over John’s heart and soul are his biological mother who abandoned him at five years old (only to live in the same neighborhood) and the stern aunt who adopts him. Both women played by Kristin Scott Thomas and Anne-Marie Duff are excellent and portray the ying and yang of John’s personality. Of course the mother wins out by her introduction of John to rock and roll and the purchase of his first guitar. Of course how could you have a film about the young Lennon without a lead with the chops to pull it off. In Nowhere Boy we have Aaron Johnson more than

NEW HAPPY HOUR! 40% OFF FULL MENU

Halfway between the spring equinox and the summer solstice, the Taurus sun reminds us to celebrate the fertile Earth in all her beauty. May 1 brings the spring mood to new heights. Even if you don’t know where to find a maypole and have no intention of dancing around a rod decorated with ribbons and flowers, the gaiety and beauty of spring will still be palpable on Sunday’s eve of the new moon in earthy Taurus. ARIES (March 21-April 19). It’s not true that ideas are a dime a dozen. They are much more valuable than that, even if they never come to fruition. Not all ideas should come to fruition, anyhow. Some are best left in their ethereal form, from which they can lead us to the next better idea. This week, write down your ideas. You’ll be brilliant. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). In every period of human history, people have strongly believed things that later were judged to be absolutely wrong, silly, barbaric, idealistic, preposterous and/or ridiculous. This time is no different. The opinion you voice may turn out to be wildly unpopular. Still, you might be the one who is right. Only time will tell. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have conformed to a group in a number of ways, but you are still your own person. There are guidelines the group seems to go by that you can’t get behind. You’re not the only one who feels this way, but you’re still wonder-

ing what you should do about it. By the end of the week, you’ll have your answer. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll be extremely popular this week. You’ll set trends without meaning to and will inspire unwanted copycats, as well. If you’re not sure whether or not someone is copying you, here’s a crafty test: Put a negligible mistake in your work and see if the other person comes up with the same mistake in his or her work. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You attract astonishing good fortune when you follow an orderly process. But this will require some prep work. Arrange to have a day to yourself when you can sort through your life, throw out what’s old and outdated, and make some plans for the future. In other words, get organized. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Logic and ambition may try to push you forward, but your intuition is still holding you back. Your hesitance is an actual physical sensation -- a tightness in the throat and chest and a heaviness in the arms. It’s as though your entire body is saying “not yet.” Listening to these cues, you’ll land in a beautiful position. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Everyone thinks things that should not be said out loud. Unfortunately, not everyone has developed the part of their brain that saves them from the potentially incendiary utterance. That’s one reason why your friendship is

ably handling the sides of John that were both the joker and the sensitive artist. Johnson is an impressive talent and shined last year as a mock super hero in the movie Kick Ass. Here his best moments are shared in the initial meeting with the young McCartney, played superbly by Thomas Sangster. Sangster is not as pretty as the real Paul but his physical resemblance is remarkable. So is the look in Lennon’s face when the super alpha male realizes there is someone out there more talented than he is. Some moments like that one are priceless but it’s hard to say how true to history the movie is. Lennon’s ascent to top flight musician seems rather fast. But quibbles aside it’s a good movie and will definitely have strong interest for Lennon devotees. tws

such a valued commodity. You help others present themselves in socially acceptable ways. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When you read the newspapers and social networking sites, it appears that others are having more fun than you and are being rude enough to present said fun in the most glamorous light just to annoy you. It may make you feel better to know that your presentation is equally annoying and glamorous to the others. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Some say that enthusiasm can’t be taught -- maybe because it is actually inside of every person. Some just have strong emotional gates to contain it. You have a way of getting people to open those gates and unleash their natural exuberance. This is partly skill, partly talent and extremely useful this week. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your persuasive talents will be put to work this week. Think your message through. Once you determine what you want to communicate, illustrate it. Paint the picture in words, or in paint. Make a video or chart. This persuasive story must be told in more ways than one, and it can only be told by you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be in a decisive mood. You get serious about a matter that has been up in the air for months now. A wish is not a goal, mainly because wishes are usually about a certain outcome that doesn’t have a timeline attached. Give yourself a deadline, and suddenly your wish has turned into a goal. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have an unexplainable spiritual bond with someone. It’s as though you share some of the same thoughts. You don’t. Your personal dream cannot be seen by anyone else, and still there are similarities and perhaps some overlapping ideas and values. The sense that you belong together will continue to grow. THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: Your strong identification with family extends into the world at large. You’ll treat new friends and associates as though they are your kin. Domestic projects will bring about emotional bonding. Next month emphasizes your appreciation for the arts. July brings a happy retreat for you and yours. What you learn in August helps you restructure your professional life. You’ll cut through red tape and rise through political ranks. Lucky financial opportunities come in June and October. tws

Silence of the leaf blowers

pring is here and with it the return of deafening, gas-guzzling, environmentally hazardous leaf blowers. According to the EPA, the average leaf blower used by a professional gardener emits yearly as much smog pollution as 80 new cars, each driven 12,500 miles. They contribute to pollution by using fuel needlessly and contributing to particulate matter emissions, which aggravate the respiratory system of those with allergies, asthmatic conditions and lung disease. The noise, plus projectile pesticides, grass clippings, dirt, dust, mold, and animal droppings shot into the air at 125 mph are harmful to health, reduce air quality and disturb the serenity of our environment. These devices, used to blow leaves, dirt and debris, create an excessive amount of noise that can go on for hours, causing headaches, increasing blood pressure and causing hearing damage. One of the biggest problems with these blowers is that they practically sterilize the environment and blow away the microorganisms that make dirt fertile. Major U.S. cities have banned

leaf blowers. There are many alternatives for disposing of leaves and debris available to gardeners and property owners that are less disruptive to the quality of life. Grab your old rake or a broom! Ask that your landscaping company, condominium association or property management company make the decision to go green and ban leaf blowers! Got a question or want to draft your own ERCbeat?

Hailey Seniors tune into Royal Wedding

Sudoku: Gold

A spoonful of sugar…

By KAREN BOSSICK

hades o’ Bettys! There were a number of Wood River Valley residents who actually set their alarm for 2 in the morning on Friday to watch live coverage of William and Kate’s wedding. Among them, Betty Grant and Betty Murdock, who regaled Hailey Mayor Rick Davis, his wife and others with their running account of the proceedings the other night at the Senior Connection Volunteer Appreciation Dinner. “I loved the wedding. It was a very spiritual, very God-centered ceremony,” said Grant. “I waited for William to look at Kate— and, finally, he winked at her.” Grant said she has watched royal weddings dating back to the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret. “I liked Di’s wedding, but she was so young—19 versus Kate’s 28. I thought Kate more resembled Princess Grace of Monaco. Kate had more of this aura of beauty and grace that I remembered with Princess Grace.” Both Bettys were, however disappointed in Kate’s wedding dress. Sure, she looked beautiful enough in it. But, they said, it was something—well—a commoner might have worn. “But, then, I hated Princess Di’s dress,” said Murdock, recalling the earlier dress, which billowed out like a giant marshmallow. tws

Hispanic Youth Symposium By KAREN BOSSICK

cads of high school youth were deputized as crime scene investigators this past weekend as a variety of crime scenes were unveiled at the Sun Valley Inn, which had been wrapped in yellow crime scene tape. The Columbine Room became a forensics laboratory as youngsters learned to tell which pen had been used to write a ransom note in a simple experiment using water, and collected other evidence to process a mock crime scene. But the real drama taking place behind the scenes was that of trying to get the kids psyched about college and career choices. “Take advantage of the speakers here this weekend,” instructor Mary Adamic told the students. “We have Ph.D. chemists and biologists here, even scientists building batteries destined to go to Mars. We’re

always looking for people trained in science and math.” The “scene of the crime” was the 22nd annual Hispanic Youth Symposium sponsored by the Idaho Nuclear Laboratory. It brought together 300 Hispanic youth from throughout Idaho to participate in speech contests, an art show, talent contest and other skills contests. Students interviewed with college representatives, hoping to snag financial assistance. And they attended workshops offered by INL scientists on such things as nuclear rocket science and the how and why of chemistry, as well as workshops on Surviving College and Paying for College. “It’s up to you. There’s money out there and colleges can help you. Undocumented—don’t let that stop you,” Karla Moya, a former Idaho Falls student now attending Utah State University told them. “Make your name known. Make your last name—your family last name—known. Make

your mother and father proud.” “You may be the first generation in your family to attend college. But you already have big brothers and big sisters at the colleges and universities,” added Idaho Court of Appeals Judge Sergio Gutierrez, gesturing around the Inn at the college students in attendance. Among them was Jose Rivas of Richfield. An earlier opportunity to attend the Hispanic Youth Symposium paved the way for him to go to college. This year he returned as a culinary arts student at the College of Southern Idaho, hoping to inspire other Hispanic youth to aspire to college. “My family, they are the most happiest. They never expected I would have this kind of help,” he said. “I go back now to my high school and they look at me like they never did when I was in high school. I feel like a real standout.” tws

o you suffer from memory loss, depression, brain fog, fatigue, can’t concentrate; or worse yet Parkinson’s or MS? Do you have relatives with dementia or Alzheimer’s? Current research indicates that these problems often start in the intestinal tract, i.e. “gut”. The lining of the intestine is called the Mucosal Barrier. Let’s think of it like the ozone layer. The ozone layer lets the right amount of sunlight through, sustaining life on earth; your mucosal barrier allows nutrients through, sustaining your health. The ozone layer prevents harmful radiation from getting through; the mucosal barriers prevent infectious agents and allergens from invading your body. But just as our planet has a damaged ozone layer, many of us have damaged mucosal barriers. The damage can be caused by a number of factors including stress, infection, toxins, food sensitivity, neurotransmitters, and enzymes. When the gut becomes “leaky”, food particles and bacteria get into the blood stream that wouldn’t normally cross over into the blood. Because the food particles are bigger than the normal metabolites entering the blood they look like a foreign body the immune system. When bacteria that normally live in the intestines enter the blood, they are also considered invaders by the immune system. Now the immune system declares war to attack and kill the invaders. The problem with this is you are now in a state of chronic systemic inflammation. How does this all relate to my brain? When the gut damage

The Idaho/Montana chapter of the American Society of Landscape Architects bestowed its highest award to Wood River Valley landscape architect Karen Sherrerd on March 26, 2011, at their annual awards ceremony in Billings, Mont. The award was given for Sherrerd’s design of a Sage Street property in Ketchum. Sherrerd was also given a merit award for a Bullion Street project in Hailey. Installed by Native Landscapes, Inc., which specializes in water-wise landscape design and installation, the Sage Street project exemplifies the movement toward more sophisticated, resource-conscious landscape design. “This project shows that sustainable landscapes can be elegant and beautiful and save water,” said Native Landscapes President Kelley Weston. The Idaho/Montana ASLA jury said “the design was very effective… the transformation of space is wonderful.” By carefully placing a series of interlocking recycled wooden decks around the existing mature aspen and replacing the existing patchy lawn with a stunning array of drought-tolerant grasses and ground covers, Karen’s design transformed a tired, mature sod-and-aspen landscape into a serene collection of outdoor spaces. Neil Kiner, awards chairman, said at the award ceremony, “Karen has

is significant and more food particles pass the gut wall, you have “leaky gut”. This activates antibodies to form in the blood stream against one or more of the food particles. Wheat, corn, soy, egg, and dairy are the more common foods people may develop antibodies to. The antibodies bind to many substances including body tissues that “look similar” to the food. The antibodies then attract “killer cells” to the substances with which they bind including the body tissues. This damages the tissues, and is called an autoimmune reaction. The brain is one of the more common areas for this killer cell attack to occur. The attack causes neurodegeneration in the brain. Could it be that we are looking in the wrong place for the answers to our epidemic of neurological and psychiatric disorders? Could it be that our psychotropic medications attempt to control the smoke while ignoring the fire? Could it be that these are, in fact, not primary brain disorders at all, but systemic disorders that affect the brain? Leaky gut is, unfortunately, surprisingly common. You can heal your brain, or at least slow the degeneration, by healing your gut. This requires a specific anti-inflammation diet/cleanse for a minimum of 10 days, possibly longer, while taking supplements to heal the gut. tws

Ask the Guys

Dear Classified Guys, Last Saturday I bought a food processor from one of the many yard sales I visited. When I returned home, I realized it was missing parts and didn't run properly. I was so angry that someone would sell such junk that I went back to the sale to return it. The woman, however, refused to refund my money. She said that it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t her fault it didn't work and even tried to convince me that she never owned a food processor. It took 20 minutes of arguing, but finally she gave me my ten dollars. I felt accomplished until I passed one of the other sales I visited and realized something. I just returned the food processor to the WRONG YARD SALE. I was so embarrassed that I went straight home. But do you think I should have gone back to apologize and give the woman her money back?

â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘ â&#x20AC;˘ Cash: If you were determined enough to argue for 20 minutes, I'm sure the woman considered ten dollars to be a cheap solution to get you to leave. Carry: As you already know, the situation was a major blunder on

Fast Facts Carbon Copy

Everyone wants the sale of an item to go smooth. So whether you're the buyer or seller, it's always a good idea to write out a bill of sale. A simple document of the transaction can be reassuring for both parties. Even if you don't have an official form, you can use a piece of paper and write the buyer's and seller's name on it. List the item being sold with a description, price and any other pertinent information. When both parties sign it, it gives everyone a sense of reassurance about the sale.

your part. The basic answer to your question is, yes. You should have gone back and apologized to the woman. I'm sure she was shocked by your persistence, as well as the broken food processor. Cash: When you shop at yard sales, there is never any guarantee of a return policy, especially if you bought the item at another sale! Carry: Before you purchase anything, it's important to try it out and check that all the parts are included. Even with something as simple as a food processor, you can ask to plug it in and make sure the attachments are in the box. Cash: It's never a good idea to

assume that it is complete. Even sellers with the best intentions can accidentally forget parts. Carry: Now even though the yard sale is over, you can still apologize to the woman and return her ten dollars. It's likely she is still confused by the whole situation. Cash: If you don't feel comfortable in going back to the house to apologize in person, you could write her a letter explaining the circumstances. Since you were clearly in the wrong, she may appreciate your attempt to resolve your error. Carry: Although if you decide to drop off the letter, just make sure you stop at the right house!

Return Unopened

Most people who host a yard sale don't have a return policy. Since they are not in the business of retailing and their items are marked down drastically, it is unreasonable to consider such an idea. Retailers, on the other hand, need to take a different approach. Many consider returns a function of doing business and have very lenient policies to keep their customers satisfied. They know that if you have a positive shopping experience, you're likely to shop there again. â&#x20AC;˘

Reader Humor Lesson Learned

Our basement is full of stuff from years of collecting. No matter how many times I've asked my husband to clean it out, he always finds some excuse to put it off. So when he left on his last business trip, I took matters into my own hands. I cleaned out all the used things and held a garage sale to sell it off. My husband was shocked when he returned home and immediately went to see what was missing. As I stood proud of my accomplishment, he asked, "Did you sell my bowling bag?" "I did," I calmly replied, "You don't even own a bowling ball." "I know," he shrugged. "But I was hiding your anniversary present in the pocket." (Thanks to Jeannie T.)
