n the movie Wall Street, Gordon Gekko claims, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Greed is good.

Greed works.

Greed clarifiesâ&#x20AC;Ś and captures the essence of the by: JIMA evolutionary spirRice, Ph.D. it.â&#x20AC;? Bernie Madoff, a real life greedster, once justified his behavior as simply leveraging client greed, just like his Wall Street colleagues. Economist Milton Friedman forcefully asserted that all societies are driven by greed and â&#x20AC;&#x153;that the world runs on individuals pursuing their separate interests,â&#x20AC;? essentially laying capitalismâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success at the door of greed.

In short, these men viewed a world in which greed is paramount and productive, a human nature imperative in which all that counts is the self. They also portray lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic activities as a zero-sum game: â&#x20AC;&#x153;You win, I loseâ&#x20AC;? or more preferably â&#x20AC;&#x153;I win, you lose.â&#x20AC;? Neo-Social Darwinists, they assert that greed is essential for survival of the fittest.

In the eyes of most humankind, greed is far from good. For many it is one of the seven deadly sins. And while it is part of human nature, greed is only one of its many facets.

Most of us have seen poignant instances of greedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s direct biological opposite, altruism, when a member of a group sacrifices his/her life for another group member.

As for all three financial titans, they should have taken a biology class to learn that greed tends to be antithetical to evolutionary success. Darwinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theory of natural selection

SVCA: Woodblock printmaking class

Discover the exciting possibilities of color woodblock printmaking with artist and master printmaker Nick Wroblewski in a two-day workshop offered by the Sun Valley Center for the Arts.

Held on Tuesday and Wednesday, Aug. 17 and 18, the intensive workshop is suitable for both beginning and intermediate students. Through the tactile process of “carving” imagery, students will investigate the methods of relief woodblock printmaking. The class will offer an introduction and intermediate techniques for creating a multicolor woodblock print. The instructor will show techniques for transfer, carving, reduction and multiple block methods and help simplify the seemingly complicated world of layers, woodcarving, reversed imagery, registration and printing. Students will learn hand-printing methods as well as techniques that utilize a manual printing press.

Woodblock Printmaking from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at The Center classroom in Hailey. For more info or to register,: www.sunvalleycenter.org, call 7269491 ext 10 or visit The Center in Ketchum.

suits. He is in his second year as part of the student union. Last year he attended the National Youth Leadership Conference in Washington, D.C. for a week where in a National Security simulation he played the President of the United States.

He is also the Vice President of the chess club and he has been on the debate team since ninth grade. “You learn how to argue both sides of a position and not be so one sided. We also cover so many topics. One week it could be Iran and nuclear policy and the next it could be world poverty. He also started running on the cross country team last year. “It’s sort of like a meditation and it calms me down.” He also is an avid fly fisherman.

“There is nothing like the feeling when you land a fish. It’s hard to describe. You really learn to appreciate the river and you’re away from everything in your own world.” For Hendrix that world is both exciting and chaltwp lenging.

he Sun Valley Arts and Crafts Festival isn’t the only game in town when it comes to art this weekend.

Idaho artists Jennifer Bellinger, Russ Lamb and Dave LaMure Jr. are showing their newest work in a garden setting from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday through Sunday. The show will be held at Bellinger’s studio in her historic 1937 log home at 100 Emerald St. The studio is off Highway 75 or Main Street just before Papa Hemi’s Hideaway on the south approach to Ketchum.

The turn will be marked by Lamb’s life-sized horse sculpture.

Bellinger said the trio purposely decided to have the show the same weekend as the art festival, figuring a lot of art fans will be in town.

Bellinger is known for her dramatic contemporary paintings of still life, landscapes, barnyard animals and pet portraits.

Lamb is a former Puget Sound salmon fisherman who creates large contemporary metal and bronze sculptures of elk, moose, horses, as well as “fish on a stick” metal garden ornaments.

LaMure crafts large vessel ceramics, bronze sculpture paintings and glass—many featuring wildlife as subjects.

Bellinger’s husband Dave will host a cookie/lemonade stand during the weekend. twp

discusses latest book, and conducts experiential workshop

By KAREN BOSSICK

A

renowned anthropologist will present a lecture and workshop on core shamanism Friday through Sunday.

Hank Wesselman will discuss his most recent book, “Awakening to the Spirit World” from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday at the Hailey Yoga Center in the Alturas Plaza.

Wesslman will conduct an experiential workshop from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at the center.

The workshop will introduce the classic method of shamanic journeywork, an ancient form of meditation in which practitioners purport to gain increased access with hidden levels of reality and awareness to connect with spirit teachers. Such teachers know our life purpose and provide us with power and protection, Wesselman believes.

The workshop will also address the shamanic perspective on causes of illness and four levels of spiritual healing. The weekend will conclude with a healing ritual.

The lecture alone costs $25, says Ruth Clark, a RU Intuit healer who is organizing the event. The cost of the lecture and the workshop is $275.

Wesselman, who received a Master’s in zoology and a Doctoral in anthropology, became interested in indigenous spiritual traditions in the 1960s and has lived among traditional peoples in remote areas seldom visited by outsiders.

It was while doing research in Ethiopia in search of answers to human origins that he began to experience spontaneous altered states of consciousness similar to

Hank Wesselman

those of traditional shamans.

In his “Spiritwalker” trilogy of spiritual memoirs he purports to have been in contact with Nainoa, an ethnic Hawaiian kahuna or shaman who comes to the West Coast to seek descendants of the Americans 5,000 years from now, after the “Great Age of Technology” has collapsed due to global warming.

Wesselman divides his time between Hawaii and northern California where he is an instructor at American River College and Sierra College.

Clark said she has studied with Wesselman and his wife Jill Kuykendall for three years.

“When I came across Hank’s ‘Spiritwalker’ trilogy, it changed my life and perspective of who and what I am,” she said. “I have experienced reality differently than most since childhood and shamanism gave me a vocabulary and discipline to do the work I came here to do.

Clark added that she has incorporated her shamanism into her dance and movement.

“My dance gives the spectators a chance to engage in the mysteries and my experiences in the other worlds.”

briefs Big Brothers, Big Sisters enrolling volunteers

The Blaine County office of Big Brothers Big Sisters is currently enrolling volunteers for its school-based program, which begins in September.

Volunteers commit to meeting with an elementary school student for one hour one day a week for lunch and recess activities. High schools students are encouraged to become involved.

For additional information on volunteering, please contact Bronwyn Patterson at 578-5405 or bronwyn. patterson@bbbs.org

Introduction to the Art of Tai-Chi

Starting September 1, instructor, Stella Stockton, will lead this five week introductory class, which is perfect for anyone, regardless of age or skill level.

Stella is a certified Tai Chi instructor and is limiting the class to six participants to increase the learning experience for students. Classes will be held on the Sawtooth Botanical Garden’s new sustainable lawn.

Research conducted at New York University has documented that Tai Chi relieves stress, reduces blood pressure, and stimulates the central nervous system. The American Arthritis Foundation has called it the perfect exercise, citing inflexibility and muscle tone as only two of its many benefits.

Tai Chi is surprisingly aerobic, improves concentration, and increases body’s energy. Upon attending Tai Chi class for the first time, one usually finds the movements to be gentle yet challenging and depart feeling peaceful and refreshed. Call 208.726.9358 to register.

Lessons from a lifelong aquatic

“I vividly remember going underwater at the pool as a child, holding my breath and looking around in fascination. I seek it out. I swam through college and as a professional triathlete.

When I move through the water it’s as if I am flying, with subtleties that are not achieved without many hours of practice or the guidance of an Aquatic Zen Master,” says Cameron Randolph, BCRD Aquatics Director, Instructor and Coach. Randolph will be leading an Adult Stroke Clinic and Master’s Swim practice on Tuesday and Thursday evenings through August 26 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m., at the BCRD Aquatic Center in Hailey.

Randolph has an extensive resume in both swimming and triathlon and a passion for teaching others.

Amy Anderson, a fellow triathlete and BCRD Assistant Swim Coach will be coaching alternate weeks. Swimmers can choose from a workout of about 2500 yards or they can get more extensive stroke work from the coaches in separate lanes. “People improve their strokes rapidly with some fine-tuning,” says Randolph.

The cost of both programs is $8/ hour-long session. Moe info is available at bcrd.org or by calling 208 788 2144.

ERC Sleepout: bugs and butterflies

The ERC is thrilled to announce that local legend Ann Christensen will join the ERC once again this summer to lead two of her ever-popular Bugs and Butterflies walks as a part of the Shooting Star Sleep Out. The event, which takes place overnight this Friday, August 13, also includes a variety of other nature workshops, a campfire program led by the ERC’s Education Director, Lisa Huttinger, and a night of star-watching with Mark Nelson. McClain’s Pizzeria and The Chocolate Moose have donated dinner; Perry’s has donated breakfast.

Friends and families can sleep out under the stars (or in cabins, if you choose) to celebrate the Perseid meteor shower and our amazing home, at this event taking place at the Central Idaho 4-H Camp north of Ketchum.

The new moon in Leo will be a refreshing influence this week, lending a renewed sense of play and excitement to life. Even those who generally shy away from the spotlight might find themselves inching toward it. After all, those who participate the most derive the most pleasure from life. Venus will be at odds with Jupiter, and disagreements over money get blown out of proportion. It’s best to avoid financial discussions altogether.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are a warrior. It doesn’t mean you want to annihilate people who don’t agree with you or who are in the way of your mission. It means your actions are imbued with purpose -- yes, even the small daily actions, like getting dressed in the morning. And a new purpose comes along this week.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Occasionally, your mind seems to have a strategy you do not agree with. For instance, your mind deems it important to obsess about a situation you truly can’t control. Fighting this takes a great deal of effort. It might be better to figure out the part in this scenario that you actually can do something about.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You will frame events with your words.

Your ability to attract people to your cause will depend on your choice of vocabulary. And your vocabulary will depend on how you truly feel about the scene. Examine your feelings, and get your head into what you’re doing. You’ll be confident when you know your

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Once the mother duck gets all her baby ducks in a row, they continue on that way, each following a tail feather until they arrive at their destination. You need team members like this now, people who, once directed, will do the job and stay on track. There’s a time for wandering and tangents, and this isn’t it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You will be susceptible to a phenomenon like love at first sight. But it’s more like love at hundredth sight, since this is a person, project or endeavor that you’ve been exposed to quite a lot already. No matter -- the pull is strong enough to resonate through you again and again. You will know exactly what you want.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your work projects become a strong focus this week. You’ll have an audience to please. Yes, they want to experience something interesting and novel, but you have to be careful about how you bring this about. First bring them what they know and can relate to. Then put a different twist on it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

The Toltecs, an ancient holy community, would practice bypassing the perceptive abilities of the five senses in order to get a spiritual view of the world. You’ll easily slip into an extra-sensory mode when necessary. Something in you knows that the truth is beyond what you can see, touch, taste, smell or hear.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Humor is revealing. That’s why some people are overly serious -- they are afraid to let anyone know the truth about them, and the joke always gives it away. Be gentle with the humorless individuals you’ll cross this week. Everyone has a defense of some kind or another. Endeavor to be with laughing friends.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Ruthlessness and cruelty are not the same thing. You will be ruthless, refusing to take pity on a single soul -- especially not on yourself. Instead, you’ll believe in each person’s ability to do what is necessary, and there’s nothing cruel about that. You’ll rule with a no-nonsense mood, and others will rise to the occasion.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Act like you are sure of yourself, even though you recognize that it is foolish to be too sure of yourself. Socrates said, “True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing. And in knowing that you know nothing, that makes you the smartest of all.” This is a game. Make the commitment to the game.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

How easy is it for you to detach from your rational mind? There is much good that can come of it now, as the esoteric insights you gain in a detached state of mind will, when you return to the socalled “real world,” have powerful applications. Of course, some will think you’re crazy, and maybe you should just let them.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: You will master a skill over the next seven weeks -- nothing too difficult. Consider the process training for your body, mind and soul.

When you can perfectly execute this simple task, you are ready to master something very challenging. October brings a windfall.

You’ll be celebrating good news during a family happening in November. New relationships in January will spice up your social world.

April brings a fascinating journey.

argument pitting lions against a school of tuna that displays Ferrell at his absurdist best.

There is also Ferrell’s alter ego as a pimp in his earlier years that goes against his mild mannered persona and hysterically sends him into fits of anger. Also featured are Eva Mendes as his ultra hot wife and a very funny Michael Keaton as the police captain that moonlights at a Bed, Bath and Beyond. Wahlberg displays some real comic chops as well as he goes toe to toe with the master. Ferrell is a funny man as he proves once again in this film.

Elephant Head now showing around high mountain lakes Photo and Story By KAREN BOSSICK

T

he Elephant Head can be seen right now around high mountain lakes like the McGowan Lakes in the Sawtooths and Thunder and Lightning Lakes near Fourth of July Creek.

It is one of the most distinctive and unusual plants of the area. Its small pink-magenta flower heads resemble an elephant’s head with two ears and curving trunks. The spike can be up to two feet tall and the leaves resemble fern fronds.

Look for it in moist boggy areas or along stream banks.

Harriman Trail Weed Control

The Blaine County Recreation District (BCRD) will commence its 2010 integrated pest management (IPM) plan to control noxious weeds (knapweed, Dalmatian toadflax, thistle, puncture vine, and koccia) along the Harriman Trail with spot applications of federal-, state- and county-approved herbicides.

The Harriman Trail is being sprayed in the early morning hours, now through August 13. Environmental Resources is scheduled to do the spraying. The project will be rescheduled if unfavorable weather conditions occur such as wind or rain.

The chemical use is targeted at weeds and grasses are unaffected by spray. Areas being sprayed will be identified with signs. The chemical being used smells (odor lingers for days)! Keep pets out of sprayed areas until odor is gone. The Harriman Trail will not be closed; signs will be posted with treatment dates. MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) available at the BCRD office, upon request.

BCRD has also engaged Whitehead Landscaping to run a test program, using its compost tea, to control weeds.

The test site for Whitehead extends along the east side of the BCRD Wood River Trail from the Hailey Cemetery road south about a quarter mile.

SaleS & leaSing

greed.............................................................. from pg 1 describes a gradual biological process in which a system of diverse life forms is mutually shaped, or evolves, over time through progressive adaptation to the demands of the constantly changing environment. Evolution is a function of interacting adjustment in which all parts support each other for survival.

Metaphorically speaking, individuals who thrust their necks outside the system are likely to lose their heads.

A psychologist’s view of these men is that they have grossly projected their narrow self-interest onto other individuals, and even whole societies, mesmerized (like Narcissus) by their own reflection. Their narrow beliefs have been reinforced by surrounding themselves with likeminded masters of the universe who also pursue selfish goals.

And, most likely, their skills are somewhat limited, better suited to selfish manipulation than to collaborative efforts.

It can be admirable to grow significant personal wealth, the essence of capitalism’s highly successful market approach. But if our leaders sanction obtaining wealth through greedy behavior and values, then democracy and the promise of capitalism are at risk. This is not a theoretical argument. Today, after the debacle caused by greed in the financial markets, 1% of the U.S. population owns more wealth than the bottom 90%, many of whom are middle-class, long-term jobless,

and homeless. Small businesses are strangling while big banks report record profits. Government policy making is dominated by Wall Street cronies who can’t see beyond their conventional wisdom.

Can you have equal rights without free and fair elections that haven’t been bought? Can you have capitalism in a monopolistic financial marketplace that limits entrepreneurial access to start-up and growth funding?

No and no! Highly concentrated wealth held by self-interested people hurts the U.S. economy and its social fabric. Indeed, the dictates of systems theory suggest that greed isn’t even good for the greedy in the long run!

We are lucky in this valley to have great wealth alongside great generosity. I’ve met only a handful of what I consider truly self-interested people living here.

The profound cynicism of such individuals, however, like Wall Street leaders, must be guarded against. Cultural values and expectations shape our social and economic behavior. Cynical beliefs can lead to cynical action and self-fulfilling prophecy. Let’s twp be careful.

sk Nicolette Amie House what she did on her summer vacation in Sun Valley and the answer to quick and to the point: She wrote a book.

House, a four-time U.S. Figure Skating gold medalist who has spent enough summers training and skating in Sun Valley to call Sun Valley her second home, will hold a book signing for her new book â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maddie Takes the Ice,â&#x20AC;? from 5:30 to 7 tonight at Chapter One Bookstore in Ketchum.

The book, designed for youth, presents the story of a confident young skater who feels the pressure building as she prepares for the regional championship.

A jealous skater is prepared to do whatever it takes to knock Madison out of the competition and an old friend turns against her just when she needs her the most. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wrote the book to help young girls so they understand others are going through the same anxiety, the same boy issues, all of that, that they are,â&#x20AC;? said House.

House, 21, said she has long been interested in journalism.

A friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother who is a copy editor referred her to a new publishing company strictly for sports books and she jumped at the chance to do something. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started out with the idea of writing a non-fiction guide to skating. Then I started playing with Maddie and it was so easy to write I finished it in three months. The book itself came out six months later,â&#x20AC;? she said.

House, who performed in Sun Valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ice show in 2006 and has since been internationally competing with her Lithuanian skating partner Aidas Reklys, is working to obtain a degree in psychology, communications and media studies at DePaul

Best Local Artist 2010

Paintings by Melissa Graves-Brown Garth Brooks and Itzhak Perlman set the stage a week ago, and since then, this amazing symphony season has continued to astound.

Season concludes this week with horns, alpine symphony

By KAREN BOSSICK

T

he symphony performed an absolutely soaring rendition of Stravinsky’s “Firebird” on Wednesday night.

Itzhak-heir apparent violinist Jennifer Koh resembled “Poetry in Motion,” according to symphony fan Marci Onofrio Thursday night.

World-renowned pianist Emanuel Ax dazzled the audience with his “Running of the Fingers” on Saturday night.

Broadway vocalists even had septuagenarian Betty Grant up and dancing to “Dancing Queen” and “Aquarius” on Sunday night.

“They called it ‘Broadway Rocks.’ It should have been ‘Symphony Rocks!’ “ Said Ginna Lagergren.

The experience was only augmented by the return of the 14 by 25-foot LED screen, the three-person camera crew and technical director that put the images on the screen.

Symphony directors got such so much positive feedback about the rented screen that they stopped the truck hauling it away to Salt Lake City and had it returned in time for Saturday’s Emanuel Ax. The screen will be on the lawn for the remainder of the season…. and, hopefully, it’ll be as much a fixture of the symphony in years to come as the strings section.

Onofrio, a fixture at every concert in her own right, said the screen has made her feel as if she has a front-row seat, as she enjoys a glass of white wine, tiny meatballs and flautas on the lawn.

Symphony Board President Martha Reed said that others have remarked that the screen helps them feel more connected to the music.

“The entire audience on the lawn gave a standing ovation after the Aug. 2 concert with Itzhak Perlman. Many audience members were in tears. I have not seen that kind of reaction from the lawn audience since the Pavilion opened in 2008,” added the symphony’s executive director Jennifer Teisinger.

Don’t change the dial.

The symphony will conclude on Tuesday but not before a few more utterly amazing concerts, including a program of light

arias, traditional American songs, a concert boasting 16 French horns and the finale, “An Alpine Symphony,” take the stage.

Friday—Baritone Nathan Gunn, who appeared in PBS’ Great Performances of “Camelot,” will perform in a concert that runs the gamut from Rossini’s “Overture to William Tell,” to traditional songs like “Shenandoah,” “Tenting on the Old Campground,” “I’m Bound for the Promised Land” and “American Anthem.”

“Nathan is an amazing baritone— we’re so lucky to have him with us,” said Teisinger. “We’ve titled the concert “The Lighter Side” because the songs will be short and accessible with arias that are family to a lot of Americans.”

At 11 a.m. composer Nathaniel Stookey, who composed Saturday’s “The Composer is Dead,” will discuss how he wrote his composition at 11 a.m. in The Community School Theater, 181 Dollar Road. At 17 Stookey was the youngest composer ever commissioned for the San Francisco Symphony’s New and Unusual Music Series. Many of the world’s great orchestras have since commissioned pieces from him.

Saturday—The symphony’s Family Concert will be held at a special time of 2 p.m. and will feature “The Composer is Dead.” The whimsical piece, developed between composer Nathaniel Stookey and children’s author Lemony Snicket, was commissioned by the San Francisco Symphony in 2006.

Stookey will narrate the piece, which introduces children to instruments as a detective rummages through an orchestra investigating the murder of a composer Pianist Jim Watkinson, who has accompanied hundreds of Blaine County schoolchildren at recitals over the

what’s on tap:

Thursday—Clarinet player Michael Collins, who played with Alasdair Neale in the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, will perform on a program that includes Debussy’s “Premiere Rhapsody for Clarinet” and Weber’s “Concertino in E-flat Major for Clarinet.” The program, which also features trumpet player Andrew McCandless, will also feature the U.S. premiere of Tovey’s “Songs of the Paradise Saloon.”

Collins jumped at the chance to perform with his boyhood friend even though it meant traveling here from Australia to South America. And Neale was thrilled to have him and said, “He’s an extraordinary man”.

years, will have the premiere of his composition “Fall” performed by Sun Valley Summer Symphony School of Music students and alumni in celebration of the School of Music’s tenth anniversary.

It will mark the first time Music Director Alasdair Neale will conduct a School of Music ensemble in concert at the Pavilion.

The Family concert will be preceded by the Toy Store’s annual doll Buggy Parade starting at 1 p.m. at the Sun Valley Inn. The Instrument Petting Zoo will take place following the concert.

Sunday—Sixteen French horn players will try their best to blow the audience away with a lineup of songs that includes “Danny Boy,” “Malaguena,” “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Amazing Grace.”

The horns had to be brought in for “An Alpine Symphony.” And to justify bringing them all that way, Neale created a special concert just for them under the direction of William VerMeulen, principal horn of the Houston Symphony since 1990.

Neale calls it “a really spectacular concert” that you likely won’t encounter elsewhere.

“How often do you see that many French horns under one roof?” he asks.

A lawn party for Crescendo Club members and those interested in joining will be held on the Pavilion lawn directly following the concert.

Tuesday—The symphony will cap its 26th season with Richard Strauss’ “An Alpine Symphony.”

Neale said it takes big biceps to rotate the wind machine borrowed from the San Francisco symphony. The machine consists of a cylinder inside a round drum with slots rushing against canvas.

Thunder, meanwhile, will be made by rattling and shaking a sheet of suspended sheet of metal—unless Mother Nature sees fit to provide her own touch.

“And Sun Valley provides the perfect setting for this piece,” Neale added.

Fishing R epoRt

The “Weekly” Fishing RepoRT FoR AugusT 11, 2010 • By: Jim sAnTA

A

lthough it seems like it just started, we’ve actually reached mid-summer. The river flows are excellent and we’re seeing good fishing on all of our local waters. On the Big Wood, Trail Creek and Warm Springs we’ve seen a bit of a change in bug activity and prime fishing times. Pmd and pink albert will be the primary mayflies and we’ll see a variety of stoneflies, primarily the smaller yellow sallies with some large golden stones still present. We’re beginning to see grasshoppers around the valley now and we’ll be starting to test these patterns Fly selection for the current hatches should be size 14-16 mayfly patterns in various colors and stimulator and stonefly patterns sizes 10-14. You may see these bugs almost any time of day, but prime times will be generally between the hours of 9:00 and 1:00 and after 7:00 in the evening. Towards dusk the caddis action has been picking up so bring a headlamp and fish into dark. This last hour can be the hottest action of the day.

Down at Silver Creek the main attraction has been the trico hatch. The fish love these tiny mayflies and will feed heavily during this hatch. You’ll need to be early on this one as it’s also a popular hatch for the fishermen. I would suggest being on the water before 8:00 a.m. for the prime water and action. Other mayflies present will be pmd, callibaetis on the slowest sections and pond and baetis during cloud cover. Damsels, beetles and ants are always good to carry during more non-active feeding times and hoppers are in the grass now so this will become a major player. The late evening has been very good on the creek as-well.

Anywhere you choose to fish right now should provide ample opportunity given the best times of day and reasonable fly selection. Most importantly always is presentation, presentation, presentation! Please stop by Sturtevants in both Ketchum and Hailey for the latest information and enjoy your time of the water.

It was interesting to hear last week about Amy’s uplifting dream of us flying together over Hailey’s 4th of July Fireworks, because I had a similarly powerful dream regarding sweet Amy back at our old Petit Lake family cabin. I haven’t been up to Petit for ten years, but recently went on Google Maps and flew around the woodsy neighborhood a bit.

Something I’ve always admired about my father, Rainier Rudolph; is that whenever he bought a house, it was always adjacent to some woods, giving us young rapscallions a healthy place to scamper around to release our energy.

I

n the dream, I awoke at daybreak on Saturday and went outside, barefoot in red pajamas to collect an Idaho Statesman from our snowy driveway. In reality, we lived on the sleepy dead end, but in the dream, cars could now connect into the forest. In fact, it was a bustling thoroughfare now; for some elaborate racecars were speeding into the hilly woods up to Alice Lake, and one or two old jalopies were pulling out to return to civilization. Even though it was snowy, I was excited to be back, and to show Amy my treasured childhood summer home. We thought we should take an encompassing stroll around the lake, while waiting for the newspaper. Still barefoot, we walked east, to see several children shouting with squeals of glee, preparing to sleigh down our cabin hill. It was a magnificent morning for sledding, and we trudged up the knoll to be closer to the enjoyment. Halfway to the pinnacle, the children deftly maneuvered around us, in figure eights on their toy-sleds.

While we reached the top, we

saw several more houses. The furthest yard was filled with dozens of other children, enjoying some festive event. The first few modern homes were quiet and dim, but the ancient house was where the action was. As we approached, we saw a great cauldron of stew boiling over a pit in the front yard, while the happy children continued to dart about, every which-way. It was a four-story grey house, and I tried to picture it from my past.

I remembered it being an old house, even back when I was young. Then in the hub of activity, we spied the property owner.

She was somebody I knew from decades ago, but she hadn’t aged much. She had some wild grey curly hair around the fringes of her head, and everyone there highly respected her. Trying to be polite, I asked in a curious voice, above the merry din, “How old is this house?” She was elusive with her answer, but smiled, and then kindly but sternly, grabbed me around the forearms, saying, “I remember your kind Max; I had to straighten you and your brother out a few times, from some of the trouble you caused out here in the woods!” I thought that this wasn’t necessarily true, but perhaps there was a small element to what she spoke. We briefly conversed some more, I then asked what her name was. She spoke a name so peculiar that I knew instantly Amy and I would be incapable of remembering it.

Green gardening

H

aving your own garden provides you delicious fresh fruit, vegetables, and herbs that are surely safe and sustainable for you and your family, right? Well that dependsâ&#x20AC;Śdo you have an organic garden? How much water do you use? Do you use mulch? Here are some tips for going green while gardening.

Kill bugs in a green way â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Many pesticides have toxins in them that get on your plants and leak into storm water drains.

One way to get rid of bugs is to put 1 to 2 teaspoons of dishwasher soap per gallon of water in a jug and then put a little bit on that on your garden every 7 to 14 days to keep plant-eating insects away. If you still have a problem, add some vegetable oil.

Or buy Non-Toxic green pesticide that uses no chemicals and is made from plants like EcoSmart products: www.greenertrends. com.

Invite birds to your yards, hang birdfeeders, because they also feed on bugs. Pile up mulch in a corner to attract beetles that will eat pests. Buy ladybugs, they eat aphids. Repeal deer by spraying egg whites mixed with water and Tabasco.

Be Careful Using Mulch - Some types of mulch have high doses of formaldehyde and arsenic, especially red mulch that

has high arsenic levels. Read labels! Mulch saves water from evaporating. Pile 2 to 3 inches deep.

Use compost for fertilizer - Either use compost from your outdoor/indoor composter or you can purchase manure to fertilize your garden. Most people swear that composted manure works better than chemical fertilizers.

Learn how to make your own.

Reuse Rainwater - Put a barrel in your yard to collect rainwater and then use it to water your garden. What a great way to save money and water! Turn off your sprinkler system when it rains!

Water plants in the morning - Water your garden in the morning before the hot sun is out to decrease the amount of water evaporating before being retained in the plantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roots.

Use a push mower or at least an electric mower, minimizing CO2 emissions and reducing noise pollution.

Plant shade trees, plant more natives and include as many as you can.

Do not use slug bait! It is deadly for pets and babies. Bait slugs with small shallow bowls of beer.

Rake! Do not use a leaf blower!

They are detrimental to the environment and to your health (starting with your hearing!)

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

everal hundred people took part in that annual summer ritual known as the Northern Rockies Folk Festival Friday and Saturday night in Hop Porter Park.

Lisa Haley, lead singer for the Zydekats, was enthusiastic about her time in the Wood River Valley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do you have any idea how beautiful it is here?â&#x20AC;? she asked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s country. And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m personally sorry that I spell my last name wrong,â&#x20AC;? she said, in a nod

A Note from Narda Pitkethly: Two months ago I went out of town, leaving my black cat Jazz with a friend. A few days later Jazz disappeared.

I returned home and searched. My friends searched.

I posted two-dozen flyers around town from where Jazz disappeared to where I had recently sold my home. I called the radio, emailed the newspaper and notified the police. People called with sightings of black cats.

To lure her in, people placed her favorite food on their decks and porches.People even showed up with captured black cats in their cars, but Jazz was nowhere to be found.

A couple of nights ago a friend called, she had seen a black cat under a bush by her driveway. I was in Boise, so couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get over to check it out until this evening. I parked at the scene of the sighting off Saddle Road. I called for Jazz as I had done so many times to bring her in at night and over the long two months she was missing. Was it my imagination, or did I really here a meow from a long way off? The meowing continued, and then got louder. There was a black cat running toward me and she leaped into my open arms.

My â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cat Hatâ&#x20AC;? is back. This is her nickname for her favorite place to sleep is right on my head at night. I am comforted by her gentle love and sleep the best with her at the foot of my bed until we turn off the lights, then she snuggles completely on my head.

I want to thank all the thoughtful people who saw my flyers and called with help and hope for a happy reunion.

Trends to watch

ard and June Cleaver wouldn’t recognize what America has become.

Forty percent of all children are now born to single Moms.

About 28 percent of households is now made of marriedwith-no-kids, compared with 22 per of the traditional nuclear family.

And, while 80 percent of those over 60 are white, only 54 percent of children under 18 are white.

And the nation and its people are going to change even more dramatically in the coming years, says Michael Collins, president of Hearst Magazines.

As publishing director for such magazines as “O,” “Town and Country” and “Cosmopolitan,” Collins is paid to watch for trends. And he gave a brief snapshot of what’s to come at a VIP function for The Community Library Home Tour Friday evening at Dan and Martine Drackett’s garden pavilion.

About 80 people traipsed over a bridge and past birdhouses strung out across the lawn to the pavilion, which featured four colorful paintings of Renaissance characters by Martine Drackett.

There they sipped wine from the Dracketts’ cellar and nibbled on a lavish spread of lamb-wrapped figs and other nibbles as Collins talked.

Some highlights: The 65-plus population is expected to double by to 89 million by 2050 and that means buying for grandbaby will be a top growth market. The baby boomers will redefine both beauty and health--Collins said he has even encountered a 101-year-old running a marathon.

People in their late 50s and 60s are going back to school— they can have a second career for 20 years. And many will shun retirement communities and age segregations, opting instead for walkable communities.

High quality video conferences will have huge implications for business travel. At the same time, luxury/adventure travel is on the rise, as are personalized art tours and high-speed car tours.

Augmented reality will bring the print media to life. Smart phones and will offered thousand of apps. And geo-fencing will accelerate the practice of messaging potential customers with real-time coupons as they get within vicinity of a restaurant,

Michael Collins

“The demise of magazines is unfounded.

Yes, 50 of the 7,000 magazines sold in the United States went out of business last year. But, readership is up, in part because the high-tech world is driving people to want to hold something.”

–Michael Collins President of Hearst Magazines

resort or retail store.

One in four Americans now live in 1 or 11 major metropolitan areas. There’s a renewed interest in urban living and walkable communities spurred on in part by a desire to cut back on oil and long commutes.

Small is now big when it comes to homes. Master bathrooms are being divided into his and her sides. And faucets and other hardware are being made over to accommodate those with arthritis and other age-related mobility issues.

Home care will be the No. 1 growth business in the nation. Surgeries will shift from hospital to the physician’s office to save money and minimize the risk of contracting infections.

Better prostheses and artificial organs will dramatically improve the quality of life. twp

Compleat Wks of Shkspeare Abridged

By KAREN BOSSICK

T

hirty-seven plays, 154 sonnets, a little swordplay, a shipwreck, the shortestever performance of “Hamlet” and ... American football?

Is William Shakespeare turning over in his grave yet?

Three local thespians will present “The Compleat Wrks of Wllm Shkspr (Abridged)” in 97 minutes this week and next.

The fast-paced irreverent romp through the Bard’s life work is being billed as “a little culture”—very little culture, as a matter of fact.

“I tell people we’re doing the complete works of Shakespeare and they go, “WHAT?! But we get it done,” says Steve d’Smith, who stars in the show alongside Matt Gorby and William Hemmings.

“Compleat Wrks” was written by three American Shakespeare students who figured out a way to perform “Hamlet in 43 seconds.

They first performed it at the Paramount Ranch in Agoura, Calif.—the site of the world’s first Renaissance Faire.

After a few reincarnations, the show ended up off-Broadway and in London where it ran nine record-breaking years—the longest-running comedy the city has ever seen.

The Ketchum trio performed “Compleat Wks” a couple years ago. Their run proved so successful they decided to bring it back this year to complement the Sun Valley’s Shakespeare Festival’s production of “Midsummer’s Night Dream,” which will debut Aug. 19.

You don’t need to be a Shakespeare buff to enjoy the show, Gorby says. In fact, it might be better if you don’t know Shakespeare as you watch “Titus Andronicus” portrayed as a cooking show, “Othello” done as a rap and “Hamlet” performed backwards.

Throw in puns, pratfalls, wig changes and plenty of audience participation and you have a set of Cliff Notes like you can’t believe.

“The Fourth wall is non-existent—we not only talk to the audience but we interact with twp them,” says Hemmings.

A quick look

What: The Compleat Wrks of Wllm Shkspr (Abridged) When: 7 p.m. Sunday, Monday and Wednesday, and Aug. 22-23. 9:30 p.m.

Knowing what level of risk you are comfortable with can help you determine whether you are a conservative investor, an aggressive investor or somewhere in-between. This is an important first step because then you can focus on investments that provide you with the levels of risks and potential returns with which you are comfortable.

To find out more about the type of investor you are or the different types of investments that are available contact a financial services professional.

There is no assurance that any investment will achieve its investment objectives. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate and the investment, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than its original twp cost.

I busted a mirror and got seven years bad luck, but my lawyer thinks he can get me five.

Ask the Guys Dear Classified Guys, You might think that after working at the same company for 20 years, I'd get a promotion. Not when the boss is your Mom! Yes, I have been working in the family business since I was 12 years old and now I need a new environment, new co-workers and a new boss! The problem is, my resume and references read like a family tree.

I hardly think my future employer will appreciate my Mom's glowing recommendation of, "Oh yes, Ricky is such a swell kid." What should I do?

• • • Cash: Well at least Mom gives you a good recommendation.

Although if she starts explaining how bright you were as a baby, it may be time to worry.

Carry: No matter what she says, potty training should not be considered an accomplishment!

You may want to look elsewhere for references.

Cash: Expanding to a career outside the family business may not be as challenging as you think.

The hardest part may be handling how it affects your family.

Carry: The first thing you need to do is modify your resume.

Since your only employment is

the family business, you will need to expand upon the listing. Give a description of the business, your job position and the responsibilities you had while there. Just because it is a family business, does not make it less valuable as a work experience.

Cash: With regard to references, listing Mom may not be your best bet. With 20 years of experience in the business, you should have plenty of other options. Consider using employees who worked with you or suppliers you have dealt with over the years. These people can attest to your work ethic and business practices. People from your local Chamber of Commerce or charities you worked with could also

make great references as well.

Carry: Also, don't forget about using your friends. When work experience is limited, it's a good idea to include character references. They can attest to your communication skills or your ability of handling stressful situations.

Cash: And after working with the family, you should be well versed with stressful conditions.

Carry: So coming from the family company can actually work to your benefit. Many people who run family businesses are multifaceted. This capability can be a great advantage in the job market.

Cash: And don't worry, you'll do great in your new job. Just make sure Mom packs you a nice lunch!

Are you working for a large corporation of a family business?

You may be surprised to learn that many of the top companies are family-owned, even those traded on the New York Stock Exchange.

It's estimated that family firms represent 89% of all businesses in the United States and account for 34% of the companies listed on the Standard & Poor's 500 Index.

The next time you apply for a job in Corporate America, you may be walking into a family-run company.

Family or Foe

Planning to work in the family business? Before you accept the job, consider the pros and cons.

While it may seem like an easy job interview, family systems and business practices do not always go hand in hand. The baggage from family situations is statistically the downfall of most family businesses. If you're going to say yes to the family job, make sure your role as an employee is clearly defined. On the positive side, family businesses offer tremendous employee support and dedication to the company's success.

Reader Humor Growing Business

Our family is really close. My two sisters and I live with Mom and Dad and we all work in the family business. When my boyfriend and I got engaged, I knew it would be a shock to my father. Although he loved my fiancé, he was sad to see his oldest daughter growing up and moving out of the house.

"I'll still be working in the family business," I explained.

"And you'll see me every day."

But nothing worked.

"It's like losing a daughter," he cried.

Finally I came up with the thought that made him smile.

"Don't think of me getting married as losing a daughter," I said. "Think of it as gaining a new employee!"
