Photo and Story By KAREN BOSSICK Every year, it seems, one or two wildflowers seem to take on a life of their own, blooming beyond the call of duty. This year it’s the mountain bluebells’ turn to be in the spotlight. They’re everywhere, blooming in profusion from Greenhorn Gulch south of Ketchum to Adams Gulch just north of Ketchum. And they’re turning up in the mountains farther to the north as the snow melts. It’s not difficult to remember their name, as they have bell-shaped flowers that hang beneath leaves. They’re among the first blue flowers to appear in the spring, showing up on sagebrushcovered slopes soon after the snow melts. They appear to turn pink as they age. COURTESY PHOTO

Written for theweekly paper

dealism seems to be synonymous with youth. Once we get older, cynicism sets in and the belief that we can change the world slowly slips away. Idealism never shined brighter than in the heart of 23year-old political activist Rachel Corrie of Olympia, Washington. Unfortunately, that life was snuffed out when an Israeli bulldozer killed her in Gaza as she tried to protect homes from being leveled. The result of this action became an international incident that reverberates today—seven years later. Another result was the powerful play, My Name Is Rachel Corrie, which will have two readings at the nexStage Theatre on Tuesday, July 13 and Wedneday, July 14 at 7 p.m. The readings are being presented and directed by Jonathan Kane and feature local actress Charlotte Hemmings as Rachel Corrie. Admission is free and there will be a question and answer session with Rachel’s parents, Cindy and Craig Corrie, following the presentation both evenings. Inspiration for the play came from the personal journals and e-mails of Rachel Corrie, which were edited by actor Alan Rickman and journalist Katherine Viner of The Guardian newspaper. The Royal Court Theatre production of My Name Is Rachel Corrie enjoyed three sold-out runs in London during 20052006 and at theater festivals in Galway and Edinburgh and now is being seen in theaters worldwide. “The play is one of the most beautiful and moving pieces of theater that I have ever seen,” said Kane. “We did a reading two months ago and the response was outstanding so we seized the opportunity to do it again. What makes the presentation so special is that Corrie’s parents, Cindy and Craig Corrie, will be in attendance. Rachel’s story rises above the level of political discussion to the powerful and true story of a young woman’s attempts to change the world and make it a better place. We are also very fortunate to have an actress as talented as Charlotte Hemmings to bring the piece to

Rachel Corrie died tragically at the age of 23. Her parents, Cindy and Craig Corrie, will be at this week’s readings, to conduct a follow-up question and answer session. Photo: Heather Black.

life.” Corrie’s parents founded the Rachel Corrie Foundation for Peace and Justice, where they continue the work their daughter began. The foundation conducts and supports programs that foster connections between people, which build understanding, respect and appreciation for differences, and promote cooperation within and between local and global communities.

Dougherty install and talk

Using truckloads of willow branches and the labor of local volunteers, internationally known artist Patrick Dougherty is constructing a largescale temporary installation on the site of the future home of the Sun Valley Center for the Arts at the corner of 2nd Avenue and 4th Street in Ketchum. Dougherty will speak about the project at a free public talk on Wednesday, July 14, at The Center, Ketchum. The talk begins at 5:30 p.m. Dougherty, who always works with locally available materials, spent two days in the Wood River Valley in late April, traveling from Picabo to Galena in search of wood harvesting sites. He settled on willow as his material because it keeps its bend and is found here in abundance. Kolash says his installations are extremely sturdy, and The Center expects this one to stay up into January. Photographer Dev Khalsa will be documenting the project during the willow gathering and construction phases and after it is completed. Patrick Dougherty’s as yet unnamed installation is part of a larger investigation into the nature of trees that includes visual arts exhibitions in The Center’s Ketchum and Hailey venues.

T

he Animal Shelter of the Wood River Valley will be hosting its annual benefit, raffle and auction on Friday, July 16, at the Trail Creek Pavilion in Sun Valley. Join friends of the shelter for a memorable night of music, cocktails, entertainment and dinner. A $10,000 Atkinsons’ gift certificate will highlight the raffle, and the silent auction items include a trip to the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, a day of rafting on the Payette River, a year membership to High Altitude Fitness, as well as over100 incredible handselected items, travel, vacation and party packages. As a private non-profit corporation, 90 percent of the funding for the Wood River Animal Shelter comes from private donations, which makes this yearly fundraising event an important moment. Animal shelter advocate Jo Murray, who has been helping the shelter with public relations for the past year, says that she has found the local community to be very supportive of the shelter. Murray is enthusiastic about the shelter’s many wonderful programs, including the newly introduced “Canine Good Citizen� training program. The shelter is able to boast being the first “no-kill� shelter in Idaho and, since 1982, they have provided many wonderful services for the animals of the Wood River Valley. In 2009 more than 1,500 animals received services from the shelter; 350 animals were adopted, 252 lost animals were reunited with their owners, and over 600 animals were spayed or neutered. Proceeds from the benefit will fund general operating expenses as well as special programs at the shelter. Tickets

Canine Good Citizen

The Wood River Valley Animal Shelter has recently become involved with the American Kennel Club’s “Canine Good Citizen� program. This innovative training program was created to help teach dogs one good set of manners that allow their owners to take them anywhere. The ten-step program helps to teach dogs many useful skills including how to walk on a leash, how to maintain excitement when meeting a new person or dog, and how to come when called. Nadia Novik, operations manager for the shelter, first heard about the program through a pit bull rescue organization in New York. Animal shelter dogs, particularly pit bulls and Rottweilers, often have bad reputations as troublemakers. By implementing this new training program, potential owners will feel more confident in adopting a certified dog, and it will make it easier to find homes for these specific dog breeds that tend to stay in shelters the longest. All dogs, not just shelter dogs, generally require basic training. Any dog can participate through the “Canine Good Citizen� program, which is currently offered through a private trainer at the Positive Puppy Dog Training center in Hailey. The training program takes about three hours of one-on-one training every week for a month. So far, two animal shelter dogs have passed the program qualifications, and four more dogs are currently in training.

Fishing R epoRt

The “Weekly” Fishing RepoRT FoR July 7, 2010 • By: Jim sanTa

hile the 4th of July fireworks have passed, the fireworks on our W local waters are just beginning. Finally this week we have a bit more to talk about than just Silver Creek. The water on our local streams

is beginning to recede and these fisheries are becoming more approachable. But don’t let the water clarity fool you; the water is still high and very swift. Fishable water will still be challenging to find and wading must be approached with caution! At current water levels the fish will be holding and feeding in the slowest water available to conserve energy. As for fly choices, the green drake hatch is underway on the Big Wood and this will be your first choice. Green drake patterns will be an obvious choice, but a large Parachute Adams or Wulff pattern will also suffice. Stonefly and other large nymphs fished with under a Thingamabobber will work nicely if the dry flies are not producing. The fish are hungry and aggressive now so if you find the right water bug choice won’t be so critical. Warm Springs creek and Trail Creek will follow suit with the same tactics. Over Trail Creek Summit, the tributaries of the Big Lost are starting to fish as-well Try the North Fork, the East Fork and Wild Horse Creek for some more remote fishing. General attractor patterns and basic nymphs will do you fine in these streams. Again, these streams are still very swift and finding slower moving water will be the key. For more technical dry fly fishing, Silver Creek continues to fish well. Bug selection and more importantly presentation will be the keys for the creek. For mayflies; pmd, baetis, callibaetis and green drakes could all be present. Other flies to have in the box when the mayflies aren’t present would be damsels, ants and beetles.

movie review

Astrology is not only for people. Countries also have astrological charts, which are based on the day they became a nation. The United States is a Cancer, and so are Scotland, New Zealand and many others. Cancer solar energy is generally associated with patriotism, and even those countries that fall under another sign experience a surge of national pride in July. For instance, Canada Day is in July, and so is the Dalai Lama’s birthday. ARIES (March 21-April 19). There is nothing wrong with finding out you have limits. So many never press against them in the first place. Knowing when to stop is not the same thing as giving up. And just because you’re not moving forward doesn’t mean you’re moving backward. You might have to stop what you’re doing to find a truer calling. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Feelings are neither right nor wrong, neither logical nor illogical. They just are. Instead of trying to fight them or make

them what you think they should be, accept them. Only then will you be able to work with them and use them to your advantage. You’ll get help from a fellow earth sign -- that’s Capricorn or Virgo. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Imagine your future the way you want it to be. With the stars augmenting your powers of visualization, it will be easy and fun for you to do so. This opens doors in your psyche. In the process, you may come to the realization that you have access to far greater wisdom than you ever knew was inside you. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Some people do their best work in phases, editing bits and parts together into a pleasing whole. You like to do it all in one hot stint. Both are fine, but this week you might get a little help from an editor type. Accepting and applying notes from a knowledgeable person will take your work to the next level. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There are a lot of songs in the world, but yours

ness. The heart of the film is the marvelous performances by a distinguished group of actors led by Keener, who seems impossible of ever striking a false note. Peet proves how underrated she is with a smart portrayal of a hardedged loser and the revelation is a tremendously understated performance from Rebecca Hall as the granddaughter. Her turn is the film’s finest, which is saying a lot considering her co-stars, and foretells of a bright star in the making. twp

is the most important because it’s yours. The song in your heart that was just a verse a few days ago now has a chorus. In a related matter, someone adores you and wants to be adored back. Finding novel ways to share your love -- or just to flirt -- will be a fun pastime. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You tend to like things that involve a lot of people at once, so the work-related gathering that’s on the schedule for this week is right up your alley. It can go whichever way you want it to go -- you could create the opportune moment for a bold move or just enjoy an easy hang with people you like. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you were a superhero, you’d be called “Rulebender.” Your acts of heroism are committed against the tyranny of hard deadlines, guidelines ... and sidelines. This week, you’ll have another showdown with your arch-nemesis, “Uptight Guy.” Your victory will free you -- and perhaps him, as well! SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you win, will the people around you win, too? Hopefully, they think so. Otherwise, you’ll have a hard time getting them on your side. This week, your relationships have a powerful impact on your ability to do what you want to do with your life. Formulate goals that include others and will motivate them to motivate you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). If you’re not feeling particularly optimistic, don’t worry. It doesn’t matter whether you think the glass is halfempty or half-full. The fact is, it’s a huge glass and there is more than enough liquid inside to quench your thirst. So trust that things will be provided for you this week, and enjoy it when they are. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you haven’t found the opportunity to fire up your motivation, it may be that your current zone has gotten too comfortable. Get out and explore. New experiences, people and stimulation will bring out your best. The one who will ignite your passion for life is likely a fire sign -- Aries, Leo or Sagittarius. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Muster up the courage to take a chance. If it doesn’t go how you want it to go, no regrets. Never “shoulda,” and definitely don’t “woulda.” Just seize the moment. And if you don’t, it’s either because you weren’t ready or because you thought better of it -- no shame in that, either. Stand proud behind your choices. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). No one is immune to life’s frustrations. Sometimes the check really isn’t in the mail and the phone doesn’t ring when it’s supposed to, or when it does, it’s the wrong person on the line. Your stellar attitude will help you rise above these petty disturbances and focus on what’s going right in your world -- an awful lot. twp

How flowers changed the world

would love to have been a fly on the wall 65 million years ago (MYA), by: BALI SZABO then live about a million years to witness all that occurred. We think we live in ‘interesting times,’ but in fact we’ve had it easy since the great Ice Age began its retreat 40,000 years ago, at the end of the Pleistocene. Sixty-five MYA (give or take a few million) was the date of the fifth, and so far, last, mass extinction. It captures the imagination more than the others because it marked the end of the dinosaurs, who actually took several million years to disappear. Seventy-five percent of all species disappeared, but half the mammals survived. This endCretaceous/Tertiary (C/T) event was precipitated by a known asteroid impact in the Yucatan Peninsula. A six-mile-wide rock slammed into it and made a 108mile-wide crater, the Chicxulub. The biological and geological changes occurring at the same time are well documented by a rich fossil record. A series of massive tsunamis deposited a layer of iridium, an extraterrestrial metal, that now marks the C/T line. Some examples can be seen on the Oregon coast. This was a time of great dynamism, with massive volcanism, a large drop in ocean levels, dramatic global warming (+6 degrees C.) and the boomerang of winters. Now for the good news. The latest incarnation of the Colorado Rockies was formed at this time (the Laramide Orog-

eny). Who survived? Birds. And the aforementioned mammals, amphibians, crocodiles, and a few flowers, whose time was just beginning. With so much of the competition eliminated, it was a brave new world for the survivors. Though the Tertiary is called the Age of the Mammal, it was also that of songbirds and wildflowers. Flowers introduced colors and ample seed into an all-green world of ferns, mosses and conifers. Flowering trees and shrubs also bore fruit. Suddenly, the world went from stodgy asexual, wind-borne and cloning methods of reproduction to a bacchanalian festival of diverse sexuality. Flowers rocked, nay, made the world we know by speeding up the rate of evolution. How? By exponentially increasing biological complexity. More species, more interaction, more change. Flowers produce fruit and large seeds, necessary for the nourishment of warm-blooded mammals. These angiosperms rapidly spread all over the world.

They provided food, and animals in turn provided transportation for their genes. Bygone were the days of slower reproduction and reptilian torpor. Here came the echoes of modernity—interdependence, globalization, communication of genetic data, information and experimentation. The more flowers, the more insects and animals attracted to them. The food chain kept multiplying. Flowers promoted specialization, handpicking pollinators with specific scents, shapes and colors to ensure reproductive efficiency. Plants supplied the world with sugars and proteins, available food energy that drove the evolution of ever larger and numerous mammals, which led to primates, which led to us. Sixty-five MYA began the begetting. Paradise came with flowers and a ‘joie de vivre.’ The Habitat twp is a modest ‘thank you.’

Glass joins Sun Valley Opera’s Honorary Board The Sun Valley Opera is pleased to announce that American composer Philip Glass has joined its honorary board as honorary advisor. A creator of 20 operas, eight symphonies, compositions for his own Philip Glass Ensemble, in addition to collaborations with artists ranging from Twyla Tharp to Allen Ginsberg, Woody Allen and David Bowie, Glass has had an extraordinary and unprecedented influence upon the musical and intellectual life of modern times. “We are very pleased to add this world-renowned composer who has had such an impact on the world of music to our Honorary Board,� states Board President Frank Meyer. During the past year the opera has experienced major growth and an expansion of its vision. Its growth has dictated the need for an expanded board and the opera is also pleased to announce the addition of Peter Huang and Carol Scheifele-Holmes to its board of directors. Mr. Huang is a retired investor who lives in New York and Sun Valley. He has served as a trustee of Carnegie Hall, the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) and the New York Zoological Society. Ms. ScheifeleHolmes moved to Sun Valley 11 years ago upon retiring from her consulting business. While living in Boston she served on the boards of the Boston Symphony and the Boston Lyric Opera.

Thirty-five percent of its clients get financial aid; no child is turned away. The center offers one-on-one testing and remediation at clinics in Hailey, Ketchum, Boise and Caldwell. It offers a college aspiration program through the Blaine County Schools, trying to get elementary school-aged children thinking about going to college. And it has early literacy programs throughout the state. “Many of these children are extremely bright but have a learning disability of some sort, such as dyslexia,” said Holmes. “People assume they’re struggling because they’re lazy, but that’s not the case at all.” More recently, the Lee Pesky Learning Center expanded into teaching children social awareness and social thinking skills under the direction of Jaime Rivetts. The program helps chil-

Scavenger Hunt at a glance

lee pesky..................from pg 1 Up for a mind-boggling scavenger hunt? The Lee Pesky Learning Center is opening its annual Marvelous Minds Scavenger Hunt to everyone—from children to adults—this year. And it’s all free. The learning center is staging the scavenger hunt from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, July 10. Teams of up to eight players are invited to race through the streets of Ketchum, solving clues, testing their ingenuity and their ability to think outside the box. The hunt sign-in will take place at the new Ketchum Town Square across from Atkinsons’ Market in Ketchum. But people should register in advance by calling 208-3330008.

The work they do puts an end to kids feeling stupid. And it helps others learn to do things like read body language so they can adapt better socially.” For information, call 208-3330008 or visit www.lplearningcen ter.org twp

Galleries breathe life into Ketchum By BALI SZABO

K

udos to whoever came up with this idea. Ketchum comes alive on these evenings, mostly because people take to the streets without looting and burning. Everyone’s happy and relaxed, jaywalking, clogging intersections, strangers talking to strangers without the usual defensive red flags, sipping wine on the go. It felt like New Orleans’ Bourbon Street. On other days, I keep hearing, ‘this place is dead.’ There’s life in Ketchum. Look no further than Ketch’em Alive. Lets not throw out the baby with the bathwater. Too much of our social life takes place within four walls. The town needs pedestrians. The Town Square is a step in the right direction. After an interview at the Aboriginal Art exhibit, I decided to go with the flow, the smell of greasepaint, the roar of the crowd. Figured I’d kill two birds with one stone, art tasting and wine tasting. The art was amazing. I don’t say that readily, and it’s not the two glasses of Australian Riesling talking. There was so much excellent work in just the six galleries I visited that after two hours, I decided to re-visit each the next day, when it was a lot quieter. Art Walk is as much a social event as an art tour. For now, I’ll just run through the highlights. At Frederick Boloix Fine Arts I was extolling the virtues of a large $25,000 lithograph of a reclining nude (a feminist sore point , and a twenty–something asked if I was the artist. I should have said ‘yes.’ I love Picasso and Matisse, the two bookend geniuses of Modern, 20th Century

Art. One of the essential aspects of art appreciation is looking at originals, any and all. It educates the eye and the analog data is routed directly to the subconscious. Aside from Henri and Pablo, there is a great metal sculpture by Julian Voss-Andrae and a large oil painting by Cuban Gustavo Acosta of a richly hued urban sprawl. Everyone had a reaction to it. Downstairs, the Friesen featured the large serial installations of Trinh Nguyen—which should definitely be seen and experienced—very visceral. Across the way at Denovo, there was the vivacious, color saturated impasto oils of Canadian Yehouda Chaki, and a great wall sculpture made from polished steel screws that had the effect of a luminous school of fish, by Korean

Jaehayo Lee. Partly because of its importance, two museum– scale exhibits at the Gail Severn took the cake. Both are once in a lifetime shows of antique West African ceramics that span the centuries, and a painstakingly assembled retrospective of American Morris Graves whose feel for animals is exceptional. Take your time here. As always, the Kneeland has an excellent stable of fine artists, some, like landscapist Kent Lovelace and Utahan Douglas Aagard are affordable. There are numerous pieces by the master sculptor of the American Indian, Dave McGary. There’s a whole month to go. Stop by, take the kids, whose unfettered responses are priceless. twp

a recipe…from my table to yours TWP. Why did you choose this recipe? MS: Summer has arrived in the Valley and there is no better way to celebrate the season than with ripening produce. A taste of gazpacho is just the thing to initiate the official start of summer, along with the much-welcomed sunshine and farmers’ markets. Though seemingly pretentious, gazpacho was the food of choice for workers during long summer days in the Spanish fields. Over time, various regions in Spain individualized gazpacho with their own local produce, offering a cornucopia of gazpacho recipes today. Gazpacho has many virtues, the biggest being its sheer simplicity.

Preparation takes about a half an hour, allowing you to stick it in the fridge, go for a hike or throw a few casts, and return to a refreshing taste explosion. It is also important to note that many of the leftover ingredients are easily transferable to Bloody Marys. TWP: How did you get interested in cooking? MS: I prefer baking to cooking, but in the summertime I enjoy finding recipes that don’t require turning on the oven. From spending a year in Spain and my love of travel, I am interested in trying more international food recipes.

TWP: How long have you lived in the Wood River Valley? MS: I am actually from Boulder, Colorado, but I spent last summer and this summer in Idaho, working for The Nature Conservancy’s Silver Creek Preserve. I love it here! TWP: What do you like about the Valley? MS: Though I’m not an expert fisherman, I enjoy being near or in the water. There is so much here—I enjoy exploring new areas and going for hikes, playing soccer, and listening to music twp in town.

appetizer

Gazpacho by Meredith Stewart 6 tomatoes, chopped 1 red onion, finely chopped 1 cucumber, peeled, chopped 1 red or green bell pepper, seeded and chopped 2 celery stalks, chopped 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley 2 cloves garlic, minced

2 C. tomato juice 1/4 C. red wine vinegar, or Carlo Rossi 1/4 C. olive oil 2 tsp. sugar 2 Tbsp. lemon juice, freshly squeezed Splash of Worcestershire sauce (optional) Chili powder/Tabasco to taste Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

It is also important to note that many of the leftover ingredients are easily transferable to Bloody Marys. Combine all of the ingredients into one large bowl. Put about half of it into a blender and blend until smooth. Return to bowl. Cover and put in fridge. Preferably chill it overnight, but six hours should do the job. Top with a garnish of choice, such as garlic croutons, parsley leaves, or sliced strawberries for the adventurous. Serve with a pale ale. Thank you, Meredith, for your recipe. Enjoy everyone!

But that by: Karen didn’t stop two Bossick dozen people from digging into the pineapple fruit salad, barbecued fish, pulled pork and other Hawaiian treats that Cam and Margie Cooper served up at their Council Circle luau last week at their log home overlooking the Big Wood River. The luau was part of a new endeavor for The Council Circle as it strives to spread the word about the afterschool programs it offers. The Circle plans to do that through a series of small gatherings, including teas and cocktail parties. It also plans to hold a pool party and barbecue this summer, a talent show in November at The Liberty Theatre and a Mardis gras party in February. Council Circle is a free afterschool program offered at six local schools. Youth learn life skills, communication skills, self-esteem, problem-solving and good choice-making through discussions, interactive games and community projects. The testimonials are easy to come by. One girl says the Circle helped her stand up to bullies: “It helped me find solutions for my problems. It helped me learn to stay away from girls who are jealous and mean,� she said. Board member Renata Beguin said she likely wouldn’t have met her husband of 34 years if a caring teacher hadn’t persuaded her father-in-law to quit riding bucking broncos and get an education. “Caring adults—that’s what

may be a student of ancient archaic cultural expression from Africa, Central Asia, Europe and the American Southwest, but my radar missed the aboriginal art of Australia. A molehill of knowledge, a mountain of ignorance—and it’ll never change. Last Friday’s opening of acrylics from the Western Desert of Australia was a revelation. The paintings are a wild series of two-dimensional patterns, but they are more than mere decorative surface texture. The coming of the white man and Colonialism forever changed the life of the Aboriginal people—much the same way as Western expansion did the life of Native Americans. They were uprooted, confined to permanent settlements far from their homeland, their hunter-gatherer nomadic lifestyle a thing of the past. They were disconnected from their cosmos, their ancestors and themselves. A mummified past, a wretched present, a hopeless future. But, their genetic and cultural memories

Council Circle is about. It’s a conversation between a child and adult who cares,� she said. “And it changes lives. Statistics show a child who has a caring adult in his life are five times more likely to succeed.� While Council Circle facilitators focus their attention on youth, it cuts both ways. Last year one Council Circle befriended the elders at Blaine Manor. One man who hadn’t talked for years opened up, becoming reengaged, when a child asked what it was like when people walked on the moon, noted Susan Fierman and Sheila Plowman. Another group created welcome packets for youngsters who were receiving help from The Advocates for Survivors of Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault, asking those youngsters to “pay it forward� by doing something nice for someone else. Council Circle youth learned leadership when they built and

remained. They painted their bodies and drew in the sand, like the impermanent Buddhist Tibetan mandalas. In 1971, schoolteacher Geoffrey Bardon sensed an unfulfilled need, and supplied these small villages with acrylic paints, something more lasting than wind blown sand. These people were not only poor, but despondent. For their own good, alcohol was prohibited. Painting changed everything. Over time, they began to sell and brought economic viability to these communities and families. The money is not only bringing health care, it is also restoring pride, identity, family cohesion and self-empowerment. The art has resurrected the creation myths, their dreamtime stories and legends, their folklore. They’ve become reconnected with the spirits of and in the land, and their own. Though hunting and moving would make them happiest, they have at least restored their sense of continuity with their past, and now they have a future.

This fall Council Circle plans to offer a new program called “Ready By 21� that will ensure every child is ready for life, marriage and work. Like other non-profit organizations, Council Circle has been living month to month on dwindling donations. It costs $300 per child to pay for facilitators for 35 weeks. Board member Susan Fierman is confident the funds will continue to flow. “We can’t afford not to do this as a community,� she said. “This program changes kids’ lives.� twp

stood tied to a context. This is a case where art enriches culture, and culture the art. Most art today gets by on eye or mind appeal. The work is a series of narratives, and it is also the result of spontaneous intuition, a vision of the structure of the world through design. There are no recognizable objects. Some of these pieces are microbiological, close-ups of neural, cellular networks, streptococci. There are numerous water symbols, birthing women, plants, fingerprints, all tied to an actual place. Patterns can be static. These works move, befitting of a nomad. Dotting sticks (stippling) add texture and depth to the lines. This is not just their world, it is ours as well. twp

Wednesday 7.7.10 biz bio........................from pg 1 ate hit. Kelli began pitching in a couple of days a week and soon was in Stanley full time. Then the 80-year-old Sawtooth Hotel with its breathless view came up for sale. “We knew it was a good deal,” comments Tim, “and we were able to leverage the bakery and remaining personal savings to buy it.” The three then obtained a construction loan to renovate and enlarge the old, authentic hotel. It was a labor of love. “It was the three of us,” says Tim, “ripping the place apart with two carpenters, a plumber, and an electrician.” When she and Becky weren’t working rock, wood or tile, Kelli was in charge of managing bills, cash flow, work trades, and payments. “The trick was just to keep at it,” she explains. “Somehow there was always a way to keep things going even when we had no money.” Becky mastered finding second-hand period furniture and decorations, going as far as Portland for items. “Our vision of the hotel has been to maintain its atmosphere so people can get an old-fashioned mountain town experience,” she says. Tim juggled the “roller coaster” of what eventually were three banks and winning a USDA energy grant for the hotel’s solar thermal heating system.

calendar................................................................................ from pg 9 While renovating the hotel, the three entrepreneurs also renovated their own homes and built a workshop that will eventually house a commercial laundry. They feel that they have been lucky, crediting their hard work, energy, time, and lots of support from great friends willing to work for sweat equity and a couple of bankers who believed in the project. This trio of 30-40-somethings has significantly enlivened Stanley, drawing people into its core with their businesses, bringing an historic hotel back to life, providing 24 jobs, and housing 10 employees. They are proud of where they’ve found themselves. As Kelli says, “I never planned on getting rich, but I want to live where I want to live and put my heart and soul into it.” Tim and Becky sound the same chord. “This was the means to a way of life. We’re amazed at how it has turned out—it’s just beautiful. We’ll be here a long while and wouldn’t trade our experiences twp for anything!”

Presenting MIZ Saigon T

hink opera is for blue bloods only? Think again. No less than by: Karen British Bossick idol Susan Boyle sang “I Dream a Dream,” from “Les Miserables.” And it and the Broadway musical’s “On My Own” have been featured on the smash TV hit “Glee.” It’s the popularity of that music and the music in “Miss Saigon” and “Madame Butterfly” that will make “MIZ Saigon” a night to remember when it takes the stage at the Sun Valley Pavilion, said Sun Valley Opera President Frank Meyer. “The composers were sheer genius,” said Meyer. “The music of both is very powerful and beautiful. No matter what one’s musical tastes, it’s music everyone loves.” Sun Valley Opera and Sun Valley Resort will present “MIZ Saigon” at 8 p.m. Sunday, July 11, at the Sun Valley Pavilion. The semi-staged production will feature costumes, a 70-voice chorus and an orchestra. Four opera singers and one musical theatre singer will sing selections from “Les Miserables,” “Miss Saigon” and “Madame Butterfly.” “This is a huge stride for the opera,” said Marsha Ingham, who co-founded the opera nine years ago. “And it should be an absolutely gorgeous evening as both “Les Miz” and “Miss Saigon” are full of memorable, haunting melodies.” The story of “Miss Saigon” is also the story of “Madame Butterfly,” with one set in Vietnam and the other in China, said Meyer. “Madame Butterfly,” an opera by Puccini, was based on a true story about an American officer who went to Asia where he fell in love with an Asian girl. She always dreamed he’d come to back to take her and their baby to America. But when he does return he brings a wife with him. The opera features the famous aria “One Fine Day” and “I Still Believe,” a duet that will be performed on July 11 by the Asian girl and the American girl. “Les Miserables,” or “Les Miz,” is based on Victor Hugo’s 1862 novel about thieves, prostitutes and student revolutionaries struggling to get by in the shadow of the French Revolution. Tenor Dennis McNeil, a perennial favorite of Sun Valley Opera audiences who has sung for five U.S. presidents, will sing Jean Valjean’s “Bring him Home.” Singer/actress Shawna Masuda, a Hawaiian of Japanese and Filipino origin, has sung the lead roles in both of the famous Broadway epics. She has been compared to Lea Salango, the Filipino who was in the original cast of both “Miss Saigon” and

“This is a huge stride for the opera…it should be an absolutely gorgeous evening.” –Marsh Ingham Co-founder of Sun Valley Opera

“Les Miserables,” Meyer said. The other singers are Ani Maldjian, who won first place at the Metropolitan Opera National Council Western Regional Audition; Isaac Hurtado, considered a matinee idol by “San Francisco Classical Voice”; and Jason Detwiler, a baritone who performs regularly with the Opera San Jose, San Francisco Lyric Opera and West Bay Opera. The singers will be accompanied by members of the Boise Philharmonic under the direction of Brett Strader, a San Franciscan whose original choral and orchestral works have been heard by worldwide audiences. A 70-voice choir made up primarily of singers from BYU-Idaho, Ketchum’s Caritas Chorale and local church choirs will bring the evening to a rousing climax. There will be a Diva party for $125 ticket holders in a private home on Saturday, July 10. There, the stars of “MIZ Saigon” will each sing a favorite song that they will not sing during the show. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served at the party, which starts at 6 p.m. twp

briefs No-cost energy evaluations offered

Businesses in the Wood River Valley can register now for no-cost energy evaluations through the Idaho SBDC in July. Boise State University students will begin conducting site visits July 14 in Hailey. The convenient on-site review includes an evaluation of lighting, building envelope, office equipment, appliances, heating/cooling system and occupant behavior. The business owner receives an Energy Efficiency Action Plans with recommendations that save energy. “It was very easy on our end and very beneficial,” said Hadley Cole, manager of Children’s Therapy Place of Boise. “We liked that we could find out exactly how much money we would save and how long it would take for us to see that return.” The Idaho SBDC wants to make strong energy performance a competitive advantage for small businesses. An average limited-service restaurant can realize a 10 percent reduction in energy costs, which is comparable to a boost in the net profit margin by as much as 4 percent and sales by $17 per square foot. Gregg Mizuta, co-owner of Bandanna Running and Walking in Boise, has implemented a “100 percent lighting changeover” as a result of the evaluation recommendations and is even installing a large skylight to fully employ the day lighting recommendation provided in his action plan. Apply for an evaluation at www. IdahoSBDC.org or contact the Idaho SBDC at (208) 426-1511.

Jaquet and Pence encourage scholarship entries

The National Foundation for Women Legislators and the National Rifle Association are co-sponsoring their thirteenth annual Bill of Rights Essay Contest for college-bound female high school juniors and seniors, which this year will be entitled “Freedom and Civic Virtues.” The contest’s winners will each receive a $3,000 college scholarship and trip to NFWL’s Annual Conference November 18-22, 2010, in Orlando, Florida, where they will network with, be mentored by, and speak to hundreds of women lawmakers from across the United States. “The Millennial Generation is the future of American politics,” said Rep. Pence. “By understanding and explaining the importance of American virtues and rights, young women can make a lasting impact on the future of American policies. This essay contest is an opportunity for young women to make their voices heard on the true intentions of the Bill of Rights.” Entries must be received or postmarked no later than July 30, 2010. The judges will primarily weigh the factors of storytelling, understanding of the Bill of Rights, and original insight. Questions by potential applicants may be directed to Rep. Wendy Jaquet at 208-726-3100 or e-mail: scholarships@womenlegislators.org.

fter the children emerged from the depths of Chalk Cave, we placed the series of collected map parchments on the pantechnivan lift-gate and blew the old dust off. Half of the children crowded there with me, while the other half stood with Amy under the ancient desert arch and pored over the rare Salinger book with great interest. I knew these maps well, but even after studying them into the wee hours many nights, I still had a hard time fathoming how the ancient ones were the most accurate; especially when considering that the ground here expanded with a new lava flow, a mere 27 years ago. How in the world could the oldest maps in the group, hundreds of years old, have known about this future event and been delineated with such fine matching detail? Could it have something to do with the ancient arch and what local indigenous people sometimes whisper about? After all, there are transformative wormholes in the universe; so why not one here in our stunning Picabo desert, next to the future airport? Meanwhile, I had more pressing earthly needs to attend to. As Amy and I caravanned separately back to the Wood River Valley, I sensed that she would want to know where my relationship with Lana stood. Amy already knew that I much preferred love over war; but now I would have to gently break her news that I’m polyamorous. As I parked the van in the drive, I saw that my cockatiel Sheila was

still outside, pecking at the living room window. This was puzzling to the max, because twenty minutes ago, while emerging from Timmermans dead spot; I saw that Amy had texted me about Sheila’s great escape and return. When I pulled the door open, Sheila streaked straight for the cage, where there was another cockatiel locked inside. Wait a minute now - which one was the real Sheila and which the pseudo-Sheila? The two birds resembled each other so well that they could have functioned as each other’s Doppelgangers. Fortunately, I had methodically trained Sheila to respond to my prompts in meaningful anagrams. So when I called out “Drunken Sailors!� from inside the cage the real Sheila immediately squawked back “Darkens oil runs!�  At this juncture, I unlatched the birdcage to let the two Sheila’s become better acquainted, while swapping out the bottom lining for some fresh newspaper. Soon, the birds made it clear that the second Sheila was not another female and that they would make a good mating couple. As I ambled over to the map table to grab a large magnifying glass, I noticed that the real Sheila’s song was less discordant than usual, which made me believe that it would be a nice change, to listen to her fulfilled melody enhance the library background. Then, as I set down to study the esoteric map information closer, Amy rang my phone and I asked her if she had any good names for a strutting twp male cockatiel.

Photo and Story By BALI SZABO

t was a perfect day for a parade, in one of the last best towns in America. The baloons and the unfurled flags fluttered bravely in the light wind, the temperature in the 70s and laughter in the air. It was a great turnout, by all accounts the best yet. The colorful throng lined the route three deep, start-up vendors in carts and mini-stands offered lemonade, candied apples and hot dogs. It’s an election year, and the pols were out pressing flesh. The only person missing was Bill Gates. Western style barmaids from Matt Dillon’s day worked the route , and even got a few bills tucked into their decolletage. WRHS cheerleaders were doing handstands on a moving panel truck. The Atkinsons’ entry’s girls threw wrapped candy to the thousand wide-eyed children along the way. Judging by the carefully twp bundled and shaded seniors, it was a day for the ages.

Recycling glass

The short and long answers are both “YES.� Recycling glass makes perfect sense here. Recycling your glass has a number of benefits: it keeps it out of our trash; it keeps it from needlessly being shipped 120 miles to our high-tech landfill outside of Burley; and it is used as a substitute for gravel in roadbeds, drainage areas and stabilizing fill. You can recycle glass easily at the curb or at drop-off locations at Ohio Gulch, or in Sun Valley. The long answer is also “yes,� but is a bit more complicated. It has always been worthwhile for our community to “recycle� glass.  But our glass is technically being “diverted� from our waste stream and not melted down into other items.  Now some people will instantly say, “See, I told you that it’s just being thrown away,� but they are missing the larger picture. Many communities (like ours), far from bottle manufacturers, run their programs to divert glass to save on trucking and landfill expenses. The best way for us is to keep the glass here locally and use it for something beneficial.  Our situation is common for rural communities and many others have found similar solutions. Is this the only way to manage glass?  Certainly not.  Other communities have ground it up for custom countertops or even melted it down to make artisan items.  But for now that’s how we manage it. So keep putting all those glass bottles in your recycling bin.  Doing so is in the best interest of our community.  For answers to all your recycling questions, visit www.ercsv.org or call the ERC at 726-4333. twp

Wendy Wooding, of Art Attack Glass, has been creating new artwork for inclusion in her display of unique, one-of-a-kind, pieces of glass art. With the completion of her new studio and a larger glass fusing kiln, Wendy is now producing work ranging in size from small jewelry pieces to large table top displays, all for sale at Ketchum Arts Festival, July 9-11. She fell in love with the medium after taking a glass fusing class and says that the play of colors and the way light reacts with it keep her inspired. Wendy’s work has been described as “fun, spirited and colorful�. Wendy uses glass in a variety of forms, from sheet glass to crushed or powdered. Using these materials, Wendy designs her own glass elements in advance that she cuts and assembles into one-of-a-kind works of art. Once the design is assembled, it is loaded into the kiln and fired until the pieces melt together.

Ask the Guys Dear Classified Guys, A few months ago I stumbled upon a great deal on a riding lawn tractor. I already had one, but I hate to pass up a good deal. It was an older model in terrific shape and only $175. I bought it, used it a few times and then put it in the shed. I had forgotten about it until my neighbor stopped over and asked to borrow my tractor because his broke. Remembering the spare, I offered to sell it to him for the same $175 I paid. He was thrilled to get it at first, but then the problems started. In the first week, one of the tires went flat. Then, a couple days later, he mentioned the clutch was slipping. That was followed by the electrical system that drained the battery. Last week I saw him riding a new one around the yard and when I waved and shouted, "hello", he didn't wave back. He appeared to be ignoring me, probably because of the tractor. I didn't sell him a lemon. I was just trying to help him out. Do you think he's going to hold a grudge?

Fast Facts Country Mowing

Duane “Cash” Holze & Todd “Carry” Holze 07/04/10 ©2010 The Classified Guys®

and tractors, both can sometimes be temperamental! However, before you make too much of this episode with your neighbor, you may want to stop over and talk with him. Cash: Maybe you can break the ice by asking to borrow his new tractor! Carry: Regardless of your conversation starter, the best way to resolve any conflict is to discuss the problem. In fact, you may find out that there is no problem at all. Maybe he just realized it was time for a new tractor. Or maybe he didn't see you while enjoying his new ride. It's amazing how many guys can get distracted by a shiny new lawn tractor!

Cash: If for some reason your neighbor is holding a grudge, you will need to discuss it if you want to resolve the friendship. Try explaining that it worked when you used it and you didn't know about any of the issues he encountered. Most disagreements are caused by simple misunderstandings. Carry: It is possible that the issues were a result of the tractor being stored for a period of time or maybe they didn't surface until it was used significantly more. Cash: In any case, it's best if the two of you can work out any animosity. After all, you never know when you'll need to borrow his mower!

Mowing a lawn can sometimes feel like it takes forever. However, Gary Hatter has taken driving a lawn tractor to a whole new level. He drove his lawn mower for 260 consecutive days around the country totaling up more than 14,500 miles. Gary started his trek on May 31, 2000 in Portland, Maine and drove through all 48 states, Canada and Mexico. On February 14, 2001 he finally arrived in Daytona Beach, Florida. The journey landed him in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Calorie Counter

Getting enough exercise is good for your health, and fortunately many household chores can add to a good exercise program. For example, raking the lawn can burn about 280 calories every hour. That's equivalent to a 10 mph bicycle ride for the same time. Mowing the lawn with a push mower is even better, burning up to 387 calories/hour. And for those who like to ride the tractor, you're still in luck. Riding the mower can burn 148 calories per hour. That's just about enough to make up for the drink in your cup holder! •

Reader Humor Down Time

My neighbors Larry and Samantha have the most manicured lawn of everyone in the neighborhood. Despite Larry's lack of enthusiasm for mowing, he's out there every Saturday afternoon sweating to mow perfectly even rows in an effort to keep Samantha happy. That is, until last weekend when I looked over and saw Larry sitting on his patio enjoying a cool drink for the first time in years. Somewhat stunned, I decide to walk over. "Wow, Larry," I said. "I'm surprised to see you relaxing." "Well," he replied tossing me a drink. "It is a GREAT day! The sun is shining, the breeze is blowing and even better," he said lifting his sun glasses, "the lawnmower is broken!" (Thanks to Peter M.)

nuggets...................from pg 1 actually very affordable,” Healy said. Healy’s jewelry has been exhibited in galleries across the country, as well as at fairs like the Ketchum Arts Festival held each July. Her unique creations have been featured in such publications as “Women’s Wear Daily” and “Harper’s Bazaar.” And her pieces have been sold in a variety of upscale stores including Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, the Boise Art Museum and The Smithsonian Institute. “I’ve been collecting her pieces for 20 years,” said Ketchum resident Pat Draper. “They’re very original and absolutely gorgeous, with such unique pieces as Murano glass from Venice.” Sandra Fetter has sold Healy’s jewelry at the Sun Valley Lodge Gift Shop to movie stars and loyal locals for more than 26 years. “We sell so many pieces. Her style is so expressive, ancient looking. And it’s affordable,” she said. Many of Healy’s necklaces and bracelets are inspired by things in nature, such as an abandoned

bird’s nest. She began featuring polar bear amulets before global warming became a household word. One—made of poppy jasper topped with rock crystal and 22k gold vermeil—costs about $400. “I do not consider the monetary value of the materials I use as important as the message each piece carries to its audience,” Healy said. “I watch a documentary about the extinction of the polar bears and I’m inspired to do something that touches your heart.” Thumbing her nose at the sluggish economy, Healy just posted her best fourth quarter. And, no, it doesn’t bother her that people still show up at her door at 8 in the morning, wanting last-minute anniversary gifts. “I love making people happy. I love giving them something that dazzles, that looks like it came off the queen’s neck. I want everyone to be able to feel like twp they’re queen for a day.” Got a nugget you’d like to share?
