Keeping girls on track New Girls On The Run program seeks volunteer coaches By RIAN ERVIN

L

earning how to deal with peer pressure, struggling with body image, and maintaining positive self-esteem are just a few of the many challenges young girls face every day. Girls On The Run, (GOTR), is a national non-profit program that encourages the development of self-respect, a healthy self-image and balanced lifestyle for preteen girls. The organization focuses on addressing the physical, emotional, mental, social and spiritual wellbeing of girls through an af-

ter-school program that consists of weekly meetings led by mentors and a final goal of running a 5k. GOTR of the Wood River Valley has been operating since 2003, and serves about 120 girls. Meetings occur twice a week and cover various topics that have to do with development, including: making healthy eating choices, discussing values, resisting peer pressure, and drugs and alcohol. These meetings help give girls the language and confidence needed to speak their minds, express themselves and identify their feelings. Through the use of fun, interactive games and activities, specific topics are introduced in each meeting.

arlier this year, Jigsaw commissioned a “Market Feasibility Study for a Business Incubator in Blaine County.” by: JIMA It was conducted Rice, Ph.D. by Claggett Wolfe Associates in California. The $25,000 report was funded by the United States Department of Agriculture and donors to Jigsaw. We did this because Jigsaw has effectively been a nascent “virtual” incubator since its inception nearly three years ago. But we wanted to know whether we were going in the right direction, i.e. what specific incubation possibilities, if any, might benefit Blaine County’s economy in the long run. (Note: Jigsaw thanks the County Commissioners for their back-up on this project). The informal definition of a “business incubator” is “a set of mentoring and other kinds of business assistance programs, and often a physical space, established to help start-up

HPL grant helps with shelves

Celebrate World Reflexology Week

Symbiotic Systems Clinical Reflexology would like to invite the community to celebrate World Reflexology Week by introducing “Vibroacoustic Reflexology™â€? to the community from Sept. 20 to 25. According to Reflexologist Mark Cook, clinical trials have shown reflexology has very favorable results for PMS symptoms, migraines, joint pain of many kinds, arthritis, MS and many other ailments. Cook has combined clinical reflexology with vibroacoustic therapy to create a new healing modality which complement each other for better results. So what is “vibroacoustic therapy?â€? Vibro = vibration and acoustic = sound so what you have is sound driving the vibration. Even thoughts are energetic vibrations. That is how traumas, beliefs, and emotions can be embedded in our cells. Just as in reflexology, one session builds upon the next so in honor of World Reflexology Week, Symbiotic Systems is offering discounted three half hour sessions to be used during this week. To learn more about Symbiotic Systems Clinical Reflexology and Vibroacoustic Therapy, visit www. reflex4usa.com or call 208-788-2012 to experience “Vibroacoustic ReflexologyTMâ€? for yourself.

Dog adoptions are half off this month

Dog adoptions are fifty percent off of the usual price for the rest of September to help create more room at the Animal Shelter of the Wood River Valley, which assisted Hailey police with removing 17 of the 20 dogs found in a Hailey home last week. “We took six of the dogs to the Idaho Human Society in Boise, where all found new, loving homes during an ‘adoptathon’ on Saturday, and we still have six here,� said Jo-Anne Dixon, D.V.M., medical director and executive director at the shelter. We are at absolute capacity with the current number of dogs,� she added. “We are offering dog adoptions at $50, half our usual price, this month. The fee includes spay/neutering, temperament testing, vaccinations (including rabies), worming, microchip identification, and a dog license.

ach of us, according to Dr. Stephen Pauley, contains a little stardust. And the Caritas Chorale sprinkled ever more on Sunday night with a heaping dose of some of the grandest music ever composed about the stars and moon and sun. A sold-out-and-then-some crowd of 148 patrons crowded into the Elkhorn Springs Restaurant for the Caritas Chorale’s annual “Starry Starry Night” benefit. The 80-voice choir took advantage of picture-perfect weather to set the stage on the patio, presenting “Moon River” and other celestial-spiced songs in three-part harmony. Then the action moved indoors where choir member/caterer Judith McQueen served up an exquisite heading-toward-fall dinner of grilled pork tenderloin with apple ginger braised carrots and a mélange of apples, onions and sauerkraut, with members of the chorale acting as waiters and waitresses. “Thank you for acknowledging how important the Caritas Chorale is to our community,” said Jane Reynolds, who chaired the event with Sandra Meier. Among those who turned out for the event were Carole and Ted Watczak, who had just returned from a rather damp, chilly whitewater rafting trip on the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. “We enjoy the Caritas Chorale—they sing ‘The Messiah’

The Harriman Trail will be closed from Prairie Creek north to Galena Lodge starting Sept. 20 through Oct. 1 for a trail improvement project. The closed area will be marked with signs and barriers. The project will widen the Harriman Trail in the vicinity of South Cherry Creek between kilometer 27 & 28. This segment is sometimes referred to as the “Rock Cut”. The Blaine County Recreation District (BCRD) will perform the work in partnership with the Sawtooth National Recreation Area (Sawtooth NRA). After project completion, the trail clearing width will be 16 feet. Trail tread width will remain about 10 feet. The wider clearing width will accommodate standard, more efficient ski trail groomers through this section and eliminate the need to maintain the winter ski trail through the Big Wood River bottom. Five of the six stream crossings in the Big Wood River bottom will be rehabilitated during the project. Only one temporary stream crossing structure will remain to enable skiers and Boulder Mountain Tour racers to access the Harriman Trail from the North Cherry Creek Trails. For more details about this project, contact Eric Rector at the BCRD, 578-2273.

and other favorites,” said Carole as she nibbled on vodka-laced Harvey Wallbanger Cake with thimble-sized raspberries. This coming winter the Chorale will perform a program titled “English Splendor” that will include music by Franz Josef Haydn. In May it will present an all-American program featuring music by Aaron Copland and other American composers. And it has commissioned a new piece involving Idaho’s Nez Perce Indians a couple years down the road, said Director Dick Brown. On a “Starry Starry Night,” however, the choir offered a flashback to the Sixties, singing “Aquarius (Let the sun shine in)” as audience members waved their cell phones in the air. “Wasn’t this evening fabulous?” enthused a starry-eyed Suzanne Gerlits. “I loved ending the night with ‘Aquarius’ set to slides of the moon and stars and planets.” twp

Sun Valley Adaptive Sports (SVAS) announced Tuesday that executive director Tom Iselin resigned from his position, effective Sept. 3, 2010. Founded in 1999, SVAS is one of the nation’s leading adaptive sports organizations, offering the industry’s most therapeutic and innovative programming—all at no out-of-pocket expense for participants.

The organization’s strong team, reinforced by an established foundation of generous supporters, hundreds of local volunteers, frequent national media exposure, and endorsements from high-ranking officials will allow SVAS to continue carrying out its mission, now and in the future. SVAS would like to thank the community for its immeasurable support and generosity, and looks forward to a continued presence in the Wood River Valley.

Thoughts upon a sunflower

I

n the beginning, there were none. Then, in the third year of the by: BALI SZABO Habitat’s construction, one showed up. It sprouted in the middle of a well-trodden path (Annie’s Path), so it was diminutive, so much so I barely recognized it. It was a lone emissary of the ubiquitous Rocky Mountain sunflower seen everywhere from neglected roadsides and vacant lots to verdant meadows. My first encounter with the species was at Great Sand Dunes National Monument in southern Colorado, where they carpet the floor of the San Juan Valley. They even grow in the dunes, in its cupped navels, where water collects just long enough to be captured by a seed, a root. My sunflowers grow more numerous by the year, to the point where I pull up more than I keep. Because they grow everywhere, I use them as indices of a given spot’s hospitality to plants in general. In moist areas, they grow 10 feet tall; in others, they’re a scrawny 18 inches. Oddly, sun is not a factor; they respond to soil content and water, the latter being the most decisive. A 2-foot-tall plant tells me that the water is about right for a wide range of xeric plants. If, even with some water, they stay small, I know that the soil is depleted and needs an upgrade either in mineral or organic content. Sometimes it’s important to observe the spot where a specific plant grows because it can provide clues about how to grow it. Life is so full of exceptions (and the exceptional) that observations and rules are rarely definitive. So it’s not that simple. Many wild plants will grow

anywhere—they’re nomads. Others, like most alpine plants, are ridiculously specific, growing only in limestone shale above treeline, for example. It takes time to learn where a plant belongs. A seed sprouts, the plant grows and flowers, seemingly content, though in fact it barely tolerates its existence, and it never returns. This confusion has its human equivalents. Some of us are rooted to our sense of place like a Scotsman to his bog, others disdain their birthplace and can’t wait to move. Historically, war and climate change redistributed humanity. We can’t move about freely anymore — we end up in refugee camps and bump into immigration laws,

fences and rabid vigilantes. This is really important. The human history of the world, in many crucial ways, is the story of the evolution of agriculture. The waxing and waning of empires and civilizations was often based on the exhaustion of and the search for new arable land. Migration is a nice word for ‘move over.’ When we run out of dirt (not oil), the party is over. Plants and animals also find themselves in a fenced, settled, paved-over world. Like us, they can’t move either, and so become far less adaptable. None of us can really outrun trouble—and that’s trouble compounded. twp If you have question or comments, contact Bali at this e-mail: hab4nh@aol.com.

he Blaine County Hunger Coalition will celebrate the bounty of fresh vegetables grown at its new Hope Garden on Saturday with a Harvest of Hope Celebration. The celebration will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. at the garden next to the Blaine County Courthouse, at First and Walnut streets in Hailey. Chefs from Big Belly Deli, Esta, Full Moon Catering, Lorna’s Catering and 5BBQ will prepare dishes from food taken from the garden, along with food donated by Bigwood Bread, Lava Lake Lamb, Fair Mountain Farm, Deschutes Brewery and other food vendors. Firefighters with the Hailey Fire Department will grill dogs. There’ll be live music and plenty of family activities, plus a no-host beer and wine bar. And there will be opportunities for the family to learn about ways they can contribute to The Hunger Coalition as it heads toward slack and the winter season. “We gathered more than 400 pounds of produce and herbs from our garden, which went to

clients of our mobile food bank. That’s pretty amazing and we’re pretty proud of it,� said Meagan Stasz. The garden celebrated its 250 volunteers a few weeks ago with a picnic at Antelope Gallery in Bellevue. Volunteers averaged about 750 hours a month helping with everything from cleaning the food warehouse to pulling weeds at the Hope Garden to picking up produce donated by local supermarkets. And they collected 11,000 pounds of food in 21 food drives. The number of people utilizing The Hunger Coalition’s services on a weekly basis dropped during the summer from 300 families to 250 as people found landscaping and other summer jobs. But Executive Director Jeanne Liston said she anticipates the numbers will go back up as fall slack hits. “I worry it will be more difficult this winter than last,� she said. “We’re seeing a level of desperation in our clients that we haven’t seen before. A lot of people have tried to make ends meet on their own but now they’re running out of savings and their homes are in foreclosure.� The Hunger Coalition plans to start some educational, nutritional and cooking workshops come winter, said Liston. twp

girls on the run...............................from pg 1 the 10-week program, the girls set small goals for themselves, which they build upon each time they meet. Goals are individualized and workouts are set to each girl’s ability level. The program focuses on girls at the elementary age level from grades third through fifth. Fifthgraders who have previously participated in the program serve as roll models for the younger participants. This year, GOTR will introduce a new program called Girls On Track, which will focus on girls at the middle school age level. Mary Fauth, executive director for GOTR, says that expanding to a middle school level is important to “make sure girls are equipped with critical tools for that age.� Adult coaches are another integral part of the GOTR program. Coaches serve as mentors and leaders, and help run weekly meetings and set good examples. Experienced coaches train volunteers and new coaches are always needed! Coaches who have previously worked with the program attest that volunteering has been an incredible experience. Although GOTR is funded mainly by grants, the 5k Spring Run in Heagle Park is the

organization’s largest community fundraiser. About 300 people from the community participate in the race, and local organizations provide kid-friendly activities that center around healthy living. Anyone can volunteer to be a “running buddy,� and help girls to run the race. Funds raised from this event provide scholarships for girls to participate in the program. Through pre and post-program surveys, Fauth says that girls who have participated in the program have demonstrated significant improvement in their levels of physical activity and increased self-esteem toward their body image. Although data hasn’t been quantified, teachers have also said that they notice an increased focus and sense of direction in academics from the beginning to the end of the school year. “The program really applies across a lot of spectrums,� explains Fauth. “It teaches the girls that if you put your mind to it and work hard, you can accomplish your goal.� For more information on GOTR of the Wood River Valley visit www.girlsontherunwrv.org/ To become a coach or to volunteer as a running buddy, contact Mary Fauth at 788-7863. twp

Breathe a sigh of relief, as Mercury, which has been traveling backward (at least from our point of view) through Virgo since Aug. 20, finally straightens out. The communication lines clear up, and it is far easier to understand than to misunderstand. Monday, Pluto follows suit, going direct in Capricorn. As the week progresses, it will seem as though all ulterior motives were dropped. Things are once again as they appear to be. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Plan ahead so that you can get just the right amount of sleep tonight - too little or too much will start off your week with discord. This is only one of the elements you can control in order to influence your week for the better. There are several forward-thinking actions you can take in order to make your life run smoothly. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). One reason for why a relationship is stressful to you is that you can’t predict what the other person will do. You are not sure what this person wants from you. It makes you feel uncertain about when and how to approach. This week you can figure out this complicated relationship. Show no fear. Put your cards on the table.

is because you have made mistakes in the past that you are able to make this choice. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You are on a mission this week and will need plenty of support from friends. You will be like the lion in “The Wizard of Oz,” who seeks courage from the wizard only to find that he is already one of the most courageous beasts around. Courage isn’t the absence of fear, but the willingness to feel it and go on anyway. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Every area of your life -- relationships, health, and financial, professional and social realms -- is interdependent. That is why when you focus on one area intensely, you often find that another area suffers. This week, your easy-going attitude and general optimism will favorably affect the whole picture. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Some people are naturally more intense than others. You are usually not in that category, preferring to stay cool, breezy and lighthearted. However, you may make an exception this week because you feel so strongly about a certain situation, principle or person. A passionate Scorpio may be involved. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s like you know you’re supposed to hitch your wagon to a star, but which one? Right now, the Polaris seems just as appealing as Sirius or Vega. If you listen closely, you might be able to hear a celestial calling. And by Thursday, you’re likely to feel it, too -- a magnetic pull that guides your heart’s compass. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There will be a slight lull for you. But before you decide you don’t have enough choices or interesting things going on, think about this: You were once a zygote -- a single-celled organism.

It doesn’t get simpler than that. That stage didn’t last very long, and neither will this one. Enjoy it while it lasts. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Stick with the thing that works for you. This week your success depends on one quality: enthusiasm. There needn’t be a specific reason for your good mood. Any old reason will do. You have the power to inspire people who would not otherwise have been moved to action. Enter rooms full of people, and shine. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Beware of the “it’s only” syndrome. “It’s only a game,” they will say. “It’s only lunch.” “It’s only a temporary arrangement.” Believe the opposite about these statements. If they have to downgrade them by using the “only” word, it means some thought went into it. The matter is more important than it seems. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In ancient Greece, kissing was a gesture of agreement and respect. Thus, it was common for politicians and work colleagues to kiss. Alas, you are not in ancient Greece, so stay cool. It’s wise to keep kisses, as well as strong emotions of any sort, out of your professional life. THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: Though you will have adventurous experiences with your loved ones, it is your quiet understanding of yourself that allows you to extract great excitement from your daily life. You will appreciate your strengths and build on your talents, and you’ll discover that you can do more than you ever twp thought you could.

Griefwalker will make it to spiritual film fest

S

tephen Jenkinson has been called an angel of death. And he’s been by: Karen called a Bossick griefwalker. He sees himself as a Harvard-trained theologian and social worker who has made it his life’s mission to help people overcome what he calls their “demented death phobia” and die well. “The thing you’re running from is never far from you. Your own death is never far from you, no matter how healthy you are,” he said. “It’s the most reliable part of your life—the fact that it will end. One of the things dying gives people a chance to do is to see life in a different way than ever before. It takes something quite profound for you to love your life in its entirety and death can do that if you give it a chance.” Jenkinson, who lives in Toronto, Canada, will be present for the showing of the film “Griefwalking: The Soul of the Well-Lived Life” at 7:30 Saturday night in the Sun Valley Opera House. The film is being shown as part of the Sun Valley Spiritual Film Festival. He will also conduct a full-day workshop from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Friday in the Limelight Room of the Sun Valley Inn for members of the public, health care providers, social workers and counselors. “His idea is that death is an important part of living a full life. And that it can be approached in a way that’s constructive and uplifting,” said Film Festival Director Mary Gervase. “I watched the film and immediately got on the phone and invited him here.” Jenkinson was serving as an assistant professor in a Canadian medical school when he was asked to work with the dying. As he dove deeper into the subject amidst founding a children’s center for grief and palliative care, he recognized that what he thought had made him an outsider in what he calls “the death trade.” “Our refusal to die well is not a cultural norm. It’s a syndrome,” he said. No one chooses to be deathphobic, but it’s built into our way of life, Jenkinson said. And it

starts when Mom or Dad are squirming about bringing little Kathy to a funeral because they fear she will be traumatized by seeing Grandpa in a casket. “I realized years ago that one of the things dying does is give people a chance to see life in a Stephen Jenkinson

Bellevue Labor Day 5K Over $700 raised for the Bellevue Fire Department

T

he first Bellevue Labor Day 5K Fun Run/Walk was held in support of the Bellevue Fire Department. Seventy-eight people registered and paid the $10 entry fee, with 68 runners/walkers (plus some kids and dogs) participating in the 3.1-mile loop that started and ended at Bellevue Memorial Park. Cox Communications generously donated gift bags to the first 50 registrants and the Sample Guy provided additional goodies that were provided to all participants. All registrants were also entered into a raffle to win an iPod shuffle, Visa gift card and some additional prizes from Cox. All proceeds, which also included some donations, will be donated to the Bellevue Fire Department, which also raised money on Sunday with their dunk tank in Bellevue Memorial Park.

different way than ever before. When it comes to dying, you need to decide what the time left you is for. Are you going to use that time to fall in love with your whole crazy life? Yes, there are parts of your life that are not lovable. But if people used the time remaining them to fall in love with life, they wouldn’t need people like me.” Trying to hold death at arm’s length is like telling the parents of a newborn, “Okay, you’ve had six weeks. Now it’s time to get on with your life,” Jenkinson said. “Being parents is supposed to change your life,” he added. “And it’s the same with death. But we tell people, ‘Don’t let it change your life too much. Just carry on.’ ” Very few people come to death ready to die, Jenkinson said. They spend their life trying not to die. But that, he said, “is lunacy, schizophrenic.” “It’s your identity to be a dying person. It’s part of who you are. I’m offering a vision that dying can be your most reliable teacher. It’s not a walk in the park. It will ask a lot of you. But if you embrace it, you will come to the end of life as complete a person as you can ever imagine.”

The ego in our exercise By ALYSHA BETH OCLASSEN, PURE BODY PILATES

T

wo years ago I happened to be on the big island of Hawaii the week of the Iron Man Triathalon. For five days I watched the amazing athletes run, bike and swim in intense heat and humidity, in preparation for the big event. And while half of me was deeply impressed by their commitment and strength, the other half of me couldn’t help but notice that not one of them looked happy. After seeing this, I started considering the beyond-average athleticism present here in our beautiful Valley. We are a community of very fit people. We run, ski, bike, board, hike, paddle, peddle, skate, do yoga and Pilates and still, generally speaking, we are not happy. We compare the number of days we got on the mountain. We peek at the mat beside us to see if our downward dog is better than the supermodel next to us. We time ourselves as we run up Baldy and smile when we beat our rivals. I will readily admit that I have caught myself in my own personal ego trip on the mat and off and found myself asking why. The truth is our competitive natures aren’t in themselves bad. Healthy competition moves

us to be better, aim higher, and push ourselves to new avenues we didn’t know were possible. But have we forgotten that exercise is supposed to be fun? While hiking do we see the mountains around us? Do we smile at the crisp air in our lungs on our morning run? Do we feel the deep stretch in our Asanas? Do we marvel at the amazing gift of our healthy bodies? Or do we power through our workouts only thinking about how good our butts will look, only to boast about our improved time over our next half-caff skinny lattÊ? Do we exercise to feed our bodies and our souls, or are we pumping up our egos? This is not criticism, merely observation. No judgment here. I am human and my ego rears its ugly head all too often. I’m aware and trying to be better. So the next time I catch myself comparing the quantity and quality of my ab series to the girl next to me, I choose to smile, laugh at myself, compliment her and then congratulate myself for the fact that I showed up in the first place. And‌ I choose to remember that it’s supposed to be fun! twp

Dale Bates said Northwood Place will have one of the largest non-industrial solar panel amenities in the state when it is finished. PHOTO: KAREN BOSSICK/TWP

Northwood Place nearly tenant-ready By KAREN BOSSICK

T

enants moving into Ketchum’s newest affordable housing project in the next couple weeks will find themselves in one of the greenest housing projects in Idaho. And construction workers even installed a few concrete planters in the courtyard in case any of the residents want to exercise their own green thumb. Builders hope to finish installing what will be the largest nonindustrial grid-tied installation of photo voltaic solar panels in Idaho on the roof of Northwood Place just north of the Wood River Community YMCA this week. When all 247 of the highefficiency panels have been installed, they will generate

71,000 kilowatt-hours per year. That’s enough to offset the cost of a geothermal heat pump system used to melt snow in the apartment area, heat gutters and provide lighting and heating for the common areas of the 32unit complex. The solar panels are just one of the things that will make the Northwood Place one of the greenest affordable housing developments in the country, said Dale Bates, the project architect. The complex just north of the Wood River Community YMCA is made of structural insulated panels featuring nearly six inches of solid foam and “superinsulated roofs.” It features bamboo cabinetry, which is renewable and healthy, as well as natural flooring materials with non-formaldehyde

finishes and insulated window coverings on top of double-pane windows. And they will enjoy “extremely low” energy bills, Bates said. Bates noted that his Living Architecture firm won a 2007 award from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) for its work on the Pine Ridge affordable housing project in Ketchum. “We won that award for pioneering one of the greenest affordable housing projects in the country—and this is far greener than that,” he said. There are still a few two- and three-bedroom units available. Maximum household incomes range from $32,500 for one person to $54,120 for a family of six. For information, call 208726-7358. twp

The history of the Arab world became part of New York history in the instant of the 9/11 attacks— “you can’t understand one without the other.” We must hope the better people will prevail when it comes to countries like Iran. One of the worst things we can do is take sides. “Iraq was not a jihadist state before the United States attacked. It is now. This is George Bush’s gift to the world. He created a terrorist state where there was not one before.” The question is whether Pakistani leaders understand the Taliban threat to it that it is. There’s no question the Pakistani military and intelligence has known where Osama bin Ladin is. All our lives depend on this question. If Pakistan decides to fight the Taliban, we’ve got them between two armies and can destroy them.”

alman Rushdie knows about book-burning, having had his own book, “The Satanic Verses,” burned as Iran’s Ayatollah Khomeini pronounced a fatwa on Rushdie for allegedly disrespecting the Prophet Muhammad. So it was not surprising that Rushdie had something to say about book burning Friday night on the eve of the day a Florida pastor had threatened to burn the Quran to mark the anniversary of 9/11. Rushdie told a thousand people attending his Sun Valley Center for the Arts lecture at the Sun Valley Pavilion that burning books is one of the most objectionable public acts that can be committed. “The burning of books is a code for tyranny, bigotry, fascism…” said Rushdie, who spent nearly a decade in hiding after Khomeini called for his death. And it’s un-American given America’s emphasis on freedom of speech and religion, he added. Would it be better if the proposed mosque at Ground Zero was built two blocks away? Two and a half blocks away? he asked. “Where does the desecration stop?” he asked, noting that there was a mosque in the World Trade Center towers at the time of the attacks. Literature has long told readers about a culture they might not have known, said Rushdie, who was raised in India and Pakistan and trained as a historian. Charles Dickens’ descrip-

tions of squalid conditions, for instance, shocked many readers, leading to reforms. People may think this traditional role is no longer essential. But it seems that the more news sources that arise, the shallower and narrower the focus seems to be, he said. “Do people not want real news anymore? When I see opinion polls say Fox is the most trusted source of news, I begin to feel despair,” he added. Books have a role to play that journalism cannot provide in this increasingly strange, weird world we live in with its growing extremism, Rushdie said. TV news gives us a constant diet of explosions. Novels help us understand what it might be like to live in Islamabad or Iran during war. “Literature reminds us of human things—of making love in a combat zone,” he said. Novels also show characters as complicated—as we all are, he said. “Yet, we live in a world where we’re constantly being told to adopt a narrower identity. But the more narrow we are, the more likely we will conflict with twp others,” he cautioned.

Coming up:

The Sun Valley Center for the Arts will kick off its third annual Lecture Series on Saturday, Sept. 25, with National Public Radio producer Ira Glass. Glass will speak at 6:30 p.m. at the Community Campus in Hailey. Tickets are $25 for Center members and $35 for non-members.

I

t was great to be back at school instructing, and the first day was an emotional one for many of the parents, dropping their children off and snapping Polaroids for posterity. Some of my science class students had participated in the Chalk Cave spring field trip, so after we held a discussion about improving cave communications, half the class decided to work on a project for developing the newfangled underground antenna to further refinement. After class, I walked down the quiet hall, carrying one of the multi-pronged antennas out to the van, when Amy suddenly whipped around the corner and one of my metal tentacles snagged on her golden hair. It took a few minutes for me to untangle her, and while brushing against Amy, I remembered the sensual flying dream we had experienced. Then as she looked at me with an unsettled gaze, I realized that I had absent-mindedly forgotten to tell her about the soaring dream! I guess it was so vivid that I subconsciously assumed she already knew about it. But now with reality back on the radar, I folded the transmitter up, grabbed Amy’s hand in the hallway, and started to recollect the dramatic dream, demonstrating how we steered in the sky by using each other’s wrists as joysticks. Amy smiled a few times as I went on with the tale. At the part where she showed me how to control our altitude

CHAPTER 27

through breathing, she said it felt like a fantasy straight out of Hesse’s Demian. Then, as I tried to ask Amy how her classes were going, she shot out, “Why haven’t you called me for three weeks, Max Rudolph!� I was left speechless, and after we parted ways, all the way home with the antenna annoyingly rattling around in the back of the pantechnicon; I realized that I should find a way to make it up to her. While cruising north, the new speed limit of 45 mph gave me some constructive time to plan how to make things right again with Amy. The antenna bouncing around in the back reminded me of various other unseen communication channels. Then it dawned on me that I should travel up to Hollie Jewelers to find Amy a pendulum so she can read my true intentions. As I walked into the jewelry store, its high vibration reminded me of a holistic healing center or perhaps a church. While Leanne laid out a small array of pendulums on the counter, I immediately saw which one was Amy’s. It was the sage-green one—earthy, with tiny specks of starshine glittering from its outer-edge cuts. Leanne kindly allowed me to test the pendulum, and when I asked if it was right for Amy, it spun wildly in an affirmative direction. I left Hollie Jewelers with a secure feeling of joy in my heart. The giftwrapped pendulum would be a unique way to open the door for Amy to accept my apology. I even remembered to charge my cell phone this time and, as I drove the 45 mph back down-valley, I called and asked if she could meet me again over at McClain’s Pizza, where I would surprise her with the dynamic twp gift. About the author: Jim Banholzer has been practicing driving his pantechnicon at 45 mph in anticipation of the healthy new speed limit reduction.

businesses get their feet on the ground.â€? Another term is “business accelerator.â€? In making its assessment, Claggett Wolfe Associates took a wide-angle look at our community, including existing entrepreneurial ventures, business spin-off activity, quality of the education system, cultural amenities, real estate, patent applications, and local leadership and support. The major conclusion of the report is that Blaine County has a number of successful and burgeoning entrepreneurs who have and could benefit from business development programs. Nevertheless, it lacks the full complement of ingredients for a financially self-sustaining physical incubator that has office space, storage room, production facilities, and basic administrative services. The key factors leading away from a self-sustaining incubation facility include: 1. A small potential base of entrepreneurs forming the kind of start-ups that benefit most from incubation. 2. Limited local business services skilled at entrepreneurial development in state-of-the-art enterprise such as technology creation. 3. A weak entrepreneurial culture, i.e. neither new ventures nor entrepreneurs are seen as a vital part of the local economy, as evidenced by community self-image, marketing communications, and government policy. 4. Lack of connection to a higher education facility with programs in research and business development. 5. Fragmented local leadership regarding economic development, i.e. various groups are pulling in different directions while drawing from the same funding sources. The study concludes with three recommendations: 1. Establish a virtual enterprise development program (i.e. no major facility required) to accelerate the small business start-ups we do have. A local county representative could serve as the point person linking entrepreneurs to existing local, regional, and state business development and assistance programs, including financing sources. 2. Enhance the County’s entrepreneurial culture by leveraging our retired base of business experts to mentor entrepreneurs. Efforts should include assistance with product research and design, marketing, intellectual property protection, creating a business, financing, management, and other essential business topics. The community should implement training programs, competitions, and recognition activities for entrepreneurs and reinstate the Young Professionals forum to encourage business development by younger colleagues. 3. Enhance business information dissemination through a web-based portal to inform existing and visiting business owners of resources available to local business start-ups and businesses wishing to relocate here. Jigsaw’s board was not particularly surprised by the findings and will take them into account in future planning for the organization. We are interested, however, in community input and, to that end, will host three wine and cheese open discussion meetings on “Whither formal support for entrepreneurial growth in the Wood River Valley?â€? The public is invited to share thier thoughts. The dates are Tuesday, Sept. 21; Thursday, Sept. 23; and Tuesday, Sept. 28. Meetings will run from 4 to 6 p.m. at The Hatchery, located at 6th and Leadville in Ketchum (facing the Clarion parking lot). Please contact Jima Rice at 7261848 or jimasv@cox.net for more information and to let her know if you plan to attend one of the twp get-togethers.

briefs Library receives community preparedness award The Hailey Public Library received notice that it has been selected for a $5000 “Community Preparedness Day� award from the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (Pacific Northwest Region). It is the first grant the library has received from NN/LM PNR for emergency and disaster preparedness purposes. The grant will fund the “Ready Hailey� Community Preparedness Event at the library. The purpose of the event is to assist residents of the Wood River Valley in preparing for the possibility of a disaster or emergency. Ready Hailey is modeled after FEMA’s Ready America campaign and many of these tools will be available for participants during the event. LeAnn Gelskey, director, said, “We are honored to receive this grant award to encourage residents to take simple steps to prepare for emergencies in their homes, businesses and schools.� The Hailey Public Library was one of three successful grant applicants. Many local and regional organizations have been invited to participate in the event, which is set for Oct. 23 from 1-4 p.m. at the Hailey Public Library. The grant funds will be used in part for event takeaways, with an emphasis on 72-hour emergency kits. Project partners will assist with providing information and will be in attendance the day of the event to discuss emergency preparedness issues, distribute materials and answer participant questions. This project has been funded in whole or in part with Federal funds from the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under Contract No. NO1-LM-1-3516 with the University of Washington.

Ask the Guys Dear Classified Guys, There's a lover's quarrel going on in our apartment and despite my husband's bad habit of leaving clothes on the floor, it's not us. I've had two lovebirds for years and they have gotten along beautifully, like lovebirds should. Then I saw a classified ad giving away two more lovebirds to a good home so I gladly took them in. I figured if two were a couple, then four would be grand. Not so. My original pair are now fighting with each other. Could it be that their relationship has been ruined by the intrusion of the new couple? Their lover's quarrel is beginning to look like my husband and I on laundry day. Any ideas on how to help my lovebirds make up?

Cash: It seems both you and

your birds may have some "pet peeves". Carry: When I first got married, I too had a habit of leaving clothes on the floor. My wife, though, took a sneaky approach to solving the problem. She hid everything I left on the floor. Finally when I had to go to work in my pajamas, I learned the value of a laundry hamper!

Fast Facts Birds of a Feather

Duane “Cash” Holze & Todd “Carry” Holze 09/12/10 ©2010 The Classified Guys®

Cash: As for your lovebirds, they actually just need some space to solve their problems. Lovebirds like to be in pairs, but two pairs can begin to cause problems like you are seeing. Carry: Imagine the difficulty you and your husband might experience if two more people moved into your house. Cash: Lovebirds are very similar. They like to be in one pair, or actually in three pairs. Adding one more set to the mix can sometimes alleviate the controversy. Of course, then you have the added responsibility of more birds. Carry: A simple solution would be to just separate the pairs. Keep

them in separate cages and in different rooms. Each pair of lovebirds should have about 35 cubic feet of space. If you have all the birds in one small cage, that could be adding to your dilemma. Cash: It's important that you rectify the situation quickly. The birds will not resolve the issue on their own. In fact, if left alone, one bird could peck the other to death. Carry: Consider yourself like a marriage counselor. If you step in now, you can still save the relationship. Cash: And then when you're done, you'll have more time to work on your husband's bad habits!

Many famous cartoons and characters have been designed around birds, including Daffy Duck, Donald Duck and the loveable Tweedy Bird. But one of the most famous oversized birds of all appears on Sesame Street. The popular Big Bird stands eight feet two inches tall. Although most of us refer to him as a big yellow canary, he admitted during a special appearance on Mr. Roger's Neighborhood that he is in fact a "Golden Condor". The oversized costume is comprised of more than 4000 yellow-dyed turkey feathers.

Tipping the Scale

Birds, like many other animals, have found their way into some of the expressions we use every day. "She eats like a bird" is one people might use to describe someone who eats very little. On the contrary, "eating like a horse" tends to describe a person who can pack away a good size meal. In reality these phrases should be reversed. A typical bird can actually consume its own body weight in food every day. A horse, on the other hand, consumes only about 2% of its body weight during the course of a day. So all told, you could say that the average bird eats like a horse!

Reader Humor Hole in One

My friends and I are not very good at golf, but we love to play every weekend. Last Saturday I couldn't make our tee time so I met up with the guys at the clubhouse after the round. "How did you guys do?" I asked as they all sat around joking. "Not bad," my friend Joel snickered. "Peter here even got a birdie." "Really?" I questioned in disbelief. Sitting back in his chair, Pete sighed, "Unfortunately, that poor little robin never saw the golf ball coming!" (Thanks to Jim P.)

Altered books take shape

scene in the valley by: Karen Bossick

B

ooks have taken on a different look at The Community Library this month. Some three dozen books have been altered as part of the library’s Second Annual Altered Books Exhibition. The library had to stash one book—“The Knife That Killed Me” on the top shelves for fear that children might hurt themselves with the slasher knife that Skip Nalen cleverly stuck through the book cover. Nalen outdid himself by employing similar methods with three other books. Henry James’ famous book, “the Turn of the Screw” is now sporting an impressive screw through its covers. Julia Child’s cookbook boasts a spatula and a cracked egg. And “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn?” Well, let’s just say it’s sprouted a little green fuzz on top. Morgan Jones created a “painting” out of several books in honor of her grandmother, a painter who always encouraged her own creativity. Barbara Patterson created a head-sized butterfly out of Names and Numbers phone books. Preschool teacher Darcy Van Sealant cleverly created little vases out of the wildflower pictures displayed in A. Scott Earle’s “Idaho Mountain Wildflowers” book. Then she stuck real wildflowers in them. And Deborah Commons has elicited a lot of chuckles from passersby with her Bookzilla, which she said gave her great satisfaction as she shredded a Suzanne Sommers diet book. These and other books can be seen on a walk-through the library. twp
