his year’s Trailing of the Sheep Festival, which runs Thursday through Sunday, is bigger than ever, with an expanded Fiber Fest, a photography workshop and, of course, the women’s writing and storytelling symposium. “We’ve had a record year for fundraising, thanks to a show of support from Zions Bank, J.R. Simplot Co., the Laura Moore Cunningham Foundation, the Idaho Humanities Council and others,� said Mary Austin Crofts, executive director of the 15th annual Trailing. “It isn’t cheap to put this on. Our budget is $120,000.� This year’s Fiber Fest has expanded to 10 classes taught by professional instructors beginning Thursday night with a workshop on Slippers to Make Your Feet Sing. There also will be Star Weaving, Simple Spinning and other activities for children during Saturday’s Sheep Folklife Fair. And the University of Montana will provide a machine to determine the quality and warmth of fiber, said Crofts. Meanwhile, the sheep dog trials on Saturday and Sunday have been designated as a national qualifier for the first time. “Our sheep are some of the most talented—that means some of the least tame!� said Crofts. “In the last two years, not a single sheep has been penned. Handlers love this trial because it puts their dogs to the test.� One of the highlights of this year’s festival is Saturday night’s performance by cowboy poet Baxter Black, who used to work as a veterinarian for J.R. Simplot in south-central Idaho. Black will spin his world-famous cowboy poetry at the nexStage Theatre, with a little help from string musician Hal Cannon. “Baxter’s extremely funny,� said Baxter fan Jim Monger of Elkhorn. “He’s so popular that the only way you can get a ticket to see him at the Elko Cowboy Poetry Gathering is to enter tws a lottery.�

Trailing of the Sheep Schedule

any photographers boast of being paparazzi to the stars. Michael Edminster is content to be paparazzi to the sheep. The Bellevue photographer has clicked thousands of pictures of sheep over the years, taking some of the most intimate and revealing portraits of wooly buggers you’ll find anywhere. Edminster will show some of his work during Friday night’s Art and Lamb Foodie Fest at the Roosevelt Grill in Ketchum before selling prints at Saturday’s Sheep Folklife Festival in Hailey’s Roberta McKercher Park. Then he and Ketchum photographer Jack Williams will reveal their tricks of the trade, showing camera buffs how to take pictures of sheep during a Trailing of the Sheep photography workshop Sunday morning. “I always get in front of where the sheep are going. Then I hunker down and get eye level with the sheep. And as they come toward me, I talk to them and let them know that I’m not a threat,� said Edminster, a self-taught photographer who goes by the moniker “Mountain Mike� on Flickr. A former logger on the rainy Olympic Peninsula, Edminster fell in love with the people, landscape and climate of southcentral Idaho when he visited his brother who was working for John Faulkner’s Gooding sheep ranch. Intrigued, Edminster filled in as a substitute sheepherder. And the following summer Faulkner offered Edminister the chance to take over for a Scottish sheepherder who had passed away a few months before. “It was wonderful because his dogs spoke English, unlike those of the Basque or Peruvian sheepherders,� Edminster said. For the next five years, Edminster and his wife Lynne followed a routine dictated by the four seasons. Every spring they moved the sheep from winter grounds in Bliss across the Snake River to Bell Rapids, watching fighter jets maneuver as they passed over the Saylor Creek bombing range. As summer loomed, they headed north to Little City of the Rocks, across the rickety sheep bridge at Magic Reservoir and through Croy Canyon to Hailey. Then they followed the railroad tracks,

which were still in place at that time, to Murdock Creek and the Lake Creek and Eagle Creek drainages north of Ketchum. “There were just a few houses there then,� Edminster recalled. “We were close enough to town that sometimes we’d jump in the Jeep and head into Ketchum for pizza at Louie’s.� The Edminsters had two daughters when they began herding sheep. They added two more while herding. Lynne delivered one at the ranch—Michael weighed her on the wool scales. The family lived in a sheepwagon on the range, expanding into a Wagonaire as the girls grew. “There certainly wasn’t a lot of housework,� said Edminster, who homeschooled the girls. “And we had a solar shower for washing.� Lynne served up dinners of chicken,

Breaking Laces at the Brewery, Friday

B

rooklyn indie rock trio Breaking Laces are stopping at the Sun Valley Brewery in Hailey on their national tour for their new album, When You Find Out. Band members include Seth Masarsky (drums), Willem Hartong (lead vocals, guitar) and Rob Chojnacki (vocals, bass, keyboard). According to Brewery owner Sean Flynn, there won’t be another one of their shows that comes even close to this region for some time. Breaking Laces will be hitting the stage at 8:30 p.m. this Friday, Oct. 7, and it will only cost you $12 to see them. You won’t want to miss this show.

A Letter from The Sun’s New Owner/Publisher

I

t is with a huge sense of gratitude that I have been given the opportunity to become the owner and publisher of The Weekly Sun, thanks to Jeff Bertz and Patty Lewis. I came on board in June 2009, before our name change, when we were still The Weekly Paper. It has been a privilege to see The Sun grow and flourish. The real accolades go to the entire staff that makes the paper vibrant, enjoyable and, most importantly, fun to pick up and read every week. We could not have done this without our team: Leslie Thompson, who makes it all happen every week; Karen Bossick, for her commitment to the lifestyle of the Wood River Valley; Bali Szabo, for his thoughtful and articulate articles; Jonathan Kane, for entertaining movie reviews and insightful student profiles; Patty Healey, for her impeccable proofreading skills; and all of our other many contributors. Most importantly, I want to thank both our readers and our advertisers for their support over the last 35 months.

In November, The Weekly Sun turns three and we are excited to start our fourth year featuring a new writer or two and some new columns. My friend Jamie Canfield, Program Director at KSKI, will be giving us a new music review bi-weekly. At The Sun, we are still committed to our original mission statement: We will produce a weekly paper that engages the community with positive local information and features, while providing cost-effective advertising. Our readers and advertisers will have ownership in the ongoing development of the paper. Our spirit and sense of humor will be evident in the office, on the street and on our pages! I’m always open to any ideas, thoughts and input, so feel free to get in touch with me at steve@theweeklysun.com if you have something you’d like to share. Thanks again to everyone who made this possible. Let’s all enjoy The Weekly Sun!

Get your hands on a copy of Breaking Laces New CD! We’re giving away 2 copies to the first 2 callers between 12 and 1pm Wednesday, Oct. 5! So, set your alarms and you can win with The SUN!

Math Tutor Ann Parry Helps in Clarifying the Math of Pi

L

See Lori McNee’s Paintings at Kneeland Gallery this Friday Page 7

ocal math tutor Ann Parry contacted us regarding Bali Szabo’s article in The Weekly Sun on Wednesday, Sept 21, titled “The Universe is Pulling My Hair.” Parry explains that, in the article, Szabo incorrectly states that “the circumference of a circle is found by its diameter multiplied by 1.61 or phi.” Parry goes on to explain: In math class, we learn that the circumference of a circle is its diameter multiplied by pi, pi being estimated by 3.14 or, in some textbooks, 22/7. We obediently perform the exercise, given a value for diameter, multiply it by 3.14, or 22/7, by hand, or more often using a calculator and, voila!, we write down an estimated value for the circumference.

A more interesting exercise is to grapple with pi. What is pi? Pi is an irrational number obtained by dividing the circumference of any circle by its diameter. Take a circle as big as the disc of the sun or as small as a pinhead, divide its circumference by its diameter, and pi is the quotient. Since measuring the circumference and diameter accurately are difficult, mathematicians from 1900 B.C. Egypt to present day have been using all sorts of equations to obtain a more accurate value for pi. To date, super-computers have been used to extend pi to its quadrillionth place (2,000,000,000,000,000) and no pattern or distinction has yet been found in these values. Thus, pi is truly an irrational tws number.

How to Stay Healthy this Cold & Flu Season BY JODY STANISLAW, N.D.

T

here is a familiar chill in the air, the pumpkins are here, and the leaves have changed colors… autumn has arrived. Yet, so has the notorious cold and flu season. But the commonly used explanation, ‘I caught a cold because Suzy kept coughing on me,’ is not entirely true. If it were, every person near Suzy would become ill, but this doesn’t happen. If you ‘catch’ a cold versus if you don’t depends on the strength of your immune system. A poor diet, chronic stress, alcohol, and a lack of sleep and exercise are the biggest culprits in weakening your immune system. To keep your immune system robust this season, follow these simple tips: 1. Eat a whole foods diet, including an abundance of colorful vegetables and plenty of water. If it is in the shape from which it grew in nature, it’s considered a whole food, thus is packed with immune-boosting nutrients. This includes oatmeal with fruit, mixed vegetable salad with chicken, veggies and fish. Other whole foods include beans, lentils, fish, chicken, brown rice, fruit, nuts… and stay hydrated with plenty of water. (Sugary drinks or coffee don’t count.) Sugar and processed foods not only weaken the immune system, they are devoid of key nutrients your immune system depends on for fuel. Aim for eating whole

Nampa Public Library, Twin Falls Public Library, and Caldwell Library joined the Consortium and upgraded to automated technology. Determined to streamline lending services in 1994, the Consortium sought a completely integrated online system. The LYNX! Consortium, fully functional by 1996, was the result. Boise welcomed the Hailey Public Library to the Consortium in 1999. Today, the Consortium is 11 libraries strong. Reputed as Southwest Idaho’s largest Wide Area Network, LYNX! Consortium circulates 6.3 million items a year. For more information, please contact the Hailey Public Library at (208) 788-2036 or visit the library online at www.haileypubliclibrary.org.

foods 80 percent of the time, and include at least four cups of vegetables per day to ensure you are ingesting a high concentration of immune-boosting nutrients. 2. Adequate rest. Sleep is the most rejuvenating time for your body. Every night your body regenerates cells, allowing your immune system to be on top of its game the next day. Just like the fatigue you feel when you don’t get enough sleep, your immune system will be suffering this same fatigue. 3. Exercise has been proven to be one of the most powerful ‘medicines,’ not only for keeping your immune system strong, but also for reducing your risk of many diseases, and is your most effective antidepressant. 4. Key supplements: Adults who took a multivitamin had a 50 percent decrease in the number of days of illness due to the common cold than those who did not. Vitamin C is a proven immune booster. Get your Vitamin D and zinc checked and take a supplement if you are low. High-quality probiotics are great immune boosters (and can relieve constipation, which also weakens the immune system). There are great immune-boosting herbs, but to be effective, they must be high quality and taken in adequate amounts. If you do get sick, eat oranges for their Vitamin C, plus garlic and onions for their antiviral properties; gargle with warm salt water if you get a sore

Featuring Lori McNee Pastorals BY KAREN BOSSICK

L

ori McNee feels her art is a perfect fit for the Trailing of the Sheep Festival. Not only does it give Kneeland Gallery a chance to trot out some of her pastoral landscapes, it gives her an opportunity to showcase her work at The Cornerstone Bar and Grill as part of the Art and Lamb Foodie Fest. The Trailing’s Lamb and Foodie Fest runs from 5 to 7 p.m., while Friday’s Gallery Walk runs from 5 to 8 p.m. “The festival is in keeping with the rural scenes I like to paint, anyway,” said McNee, who lives in Sun Valley. “I grew up going to my grandfather’s ranch in Colorado. So, these scenes speak to me—they’re of an era we’re losing. And my initials are LAM so my mother always gave me little sheep mementoes.” After years of painting, McNee has been working on loosening up her work, slapping paint on a canvas and then painting a realistic scene over the abstract and underpainting. One such work that will be featured at The Cornerstone Bar and Grill was inspired by a scene she saw Lori McNee’s Morning Mist - Wild Mustang can be seen at Kneeland Gallery. in New Zealand. But it is COURTESY ART similar to what you would see amidst the cottonwoods land will feature a couple of her little wax amidst the oil. in Bellevue, said McNee, new encaustic works. “I love it,” she said. “It creates who often paints en plein air.

Awkward Stage: Adolescence and Identity Reception Friday

W

hile adults often dismiss teenage trends as mere fads, adolescents are key players in shaping contemporary culture, from fashion to film and music. A new multidisciplinary project at the Sun Valley Center for the Arts opening Friday explores the world of adolescence. Awkward Stage: Adolescence and Identity, opening at The Center, Ketchum, on Friday, October 7, features an installation made by two artists in collaboration with local teens. Wood River Valley artist Pamela DeTuncq made body-cast sculptures of teens dressed in wool sweatshirts and felted pants, absorbed in electronic devices, while Boston-area graffiti artist Percy Fortini-Wright guided local teens in making a painted background for DeTuncq’s figures during a workshop in September. Another adult-teen collaboration comes from father and daughter Richard Ross and Leela Cyd Ross from Santa Barbara, Calif., who spent four years working together on the Leela Cyd Project—photographs of Leela each morning before she left for high school (often wearing clothing she designed or altered). Accompanied by fragments from her diary, the photos document her transition from childhood to adulthood. Also on display are photographs by Jona Frank, Lauren Greenfield, Hailey resident Matthew Hayes, Miguel Farias and art student Allison Reilly, and portraits that Lauren Marie Taylor painted of her students in a Portland high school. In addition, the Board Bin is sponsoring a teen photo project.

Sculpture by Pamela DeTuncq COURTESY PHOTO

Blaine County students ages 12– 18 are invited to submit photos that answer the question “What does adolescence look like?” to The Center’s Facebook page. The Center will print the photos for inclusion in the Ketchum exhibition. All submissions will be entered into a random drawing for a $350 gift certificate to the Board Bin. A $150 Board Bin gift certificate will go to the People’s Choice winner. Awkward Stage: Adolescence and Identity opens at The Center, Ketchum, on Friday, October 7 with a reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Pamela DeTuncq and Matthew Hayes will speak about their work at 6 p.m. The gallery will be open from 5 to 8 p.m. as part of Ketchum’s Gallery Walk. Free tours are scheduled on selected Tuesdays and Thursdays during the exhibition; visit www.sunvalleycenter.org for dates and times or call 726-9491.

horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re smart. You get both the text and the subtext. The more you observe the better tuned in you are to the hidden meanings of human behavior. One person in particular is sending you signals that you can easily interpret. Your accurate read on the situation allows you to deal directly and appropriately. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If anyone you knew laughed at a baby and said how stupid he was because he couldn’t say words, you would think that person an imbecile. And yet you expect yourself to perform tasks that are brand-new to you. See the silliness

and cruelty in this. Be kind to yourself while you’re in the “baby� stages of learning. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Every day you have more and more excess data available to you. It’s hard to know what to do with all this information. You can’t possibly assimilate it all, and yet you sense there’s value in it. Take it bit by bit. And don’t worry about storing anything. You’ll find what you need when you need it. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Possessions are best used. Then again, many possessions have symbolic qualities, and their main use is found in the

maintenance, display, appreciation and admiration of them. If you cannot use an item practically or symbolically, consider giving it to someone who can. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may feel that you have, in a sense, lost a certain game. Or perhaps more aptly, you feel you’re so far behind the frontrunners that there’s really no chance of catching up. This is a blessing. With all you’ve learned, you can move on to another arena -- one better suited to your multifaceted talents -- and get the gold. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your

eyes have a good range of motion, and yet they still only see what’s on the outside of you. Your mind’s eye has a better range and can see all the way into the depths of your soul and the inner workings of your heart. You evolve quickly as your mind’s eye and actual eyes work together to discover the truth. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). What you really want to do is likely against the rules. You can either go under the radar to quickly accomplish the aim, or you can use your charm and persuasion to get someone to bend the rules just for you. You’ll probably wind up executing a combination of the two approaches. But what you won’t do is back down. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Anticipation can be a special kind of torment, especially when you have only a glimmer of an idea about what exactly will happen when your wait is over. Will it be something spectacular or a total let down? The best way is to expect very little and be pleasantly surprised at anything extra that happens. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). If you rush to execute a plan, you may go forward without the skills that are required to succeed at the task. Every task requires that you learn and then practice what you’ve learned. These stages are crucial and can’t be skipped. Take a closer look at what’s needed. Go step by step instead of leaping ahead. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll be aware of how you encourage and

discourage yourself throughout the week. There may be little rhyme or reason to it -- mostly it depends on how strong you are feeling. The voice inside that says “you can’t� is often speaking out of school. On Tuesday and Wednesday, that voice is best ignored. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Maybe you didn’t sit down with a financial adviser to determine whether or not you could afford your current lifestyle, but it’s not too late to get some good tips and insights. Look in books and on the Internet. Talk to friends and professionals. Your mind is open, and you’ll find what you need for greater fiscal health. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s true that sometimes you work hard and things still don’t pan out. Rejection, weather, political climate and other elements you can’t control are simply facts of life. But if you keep moving on with new ideas and approaches, you will eventually break through to the Promised Land. You’re one of the strong ones. THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: It will be a year of significant beginnings. Events, relationships, trends and activities burgeon out of the happy energy you stir up this year. This month, you feel attractive and courageous, though not at all reckless. The risks you take will be educated ones that lead to financial and personal gain. The holiday adventures center around a special kinship. You’ll develop a hobby through January. tws

hen Ryan Gosling, the star of the new thriller Drive, states that “I’m a driver,� he isn’t kidding. In the L.A.-set world that the film takes place in, Gosling maneuvers the wheel with uncommon dexterity working as a Hollywood stunt driver, a mechanic and, most importantly, as a hired gun to assist in robberies. Unfortunately, he takes part in a robbery that goes wrong and his life tumbles into a deadly cat-and-mouse game. In the new film by Nicolas Winding Refn, style takes over for content, but what a style the film has! Essentially a film noir, the look of the film says it all—from beautiful sweeping shots of L.A. at night to the revved-up action and car chases that define the picture. To help with that look, Refn has scored the movie to an ’80’s beat full of synth riffs, reminding you of the classic show Miami Vice. But here the turf is unmistakably L.A. and the terrific opening scene sets the table. Gosling introduces us to a character that has even less to say than Clint

Eastwood’s Man With No Name as he coolly maneuvers from cops and executes a clean getaway. Unfortunately, the getaway is less clean when he gets wrapped up on the wrong side of criminal Albert Brooks, who is terrific as the film’s bad guy. Brooks, a comic genius, certainly goes against type and might find himself worthy of an Oscar nomination. But the real nod goes to Gosling—fast on his way to becoming a superstar. Defining cool, Gosling’s presence is palpable as he moves through the film sleek as a puma. And he has to move carefully as the violence is pretty raw and uncensored. Perhaps it’s a bit much, but this is a rough world and Gosling has all the tools to navigate it. Certainly not for children, Drive has an intensity all its own and will leave you breathless as its tws action hurtles along.

arion Sept was just 15 when the men went off to World War II, handing her a shotgun and sending her out from their Montana sheep ranch to watch the sheep. Now in her 80s, Sept—whose son lives in Bellevue—will be among the writers and ranch women who will share their stories about living on the land when the Trailing of the Sheep Festival presents its inaugural Women Writing and Living the West Symposium. The day-long symposium will be held from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Friday at Carol’s Dollar Mountain Lodge in Sun Valley. Diane Josephy Peavey, who co-founded the festival with her Flat Top Sheep Ranch husband John Peavey, said she and others came up with the Women Writing and Living the West symposium as a way to assign more significance to the storytelling sessions the festival has offered since its inception. “After the music stops and the food is gone, what’s left is all the stories that we’ve been collecting for the last 15 years,” she said. “This whole session is about storytelling, about living on the land, about women living heroic lives. “As children of ranchers move to the cities, the time-honored practice of living on the land is disappearing. So I’m thrilled to be able to collect and save these stories.” The workshop will feature some extraordinary women writers who have lived on a ranch, including Teresa Jordan, author of “Riding the White Horse Home”; Gretel Ehrlich, author of “The Solace of Open Spaces”; and Linda Hasselstrom, who wrote “No Place Like Home.” Other authors include Linda Hussa, author of “The Fam-

ily Ranch: Land, Children and Tradition in the American West”; Annick Smith, author of “Homestead”; and Diane Josephy Peavey, whose “Bitterbrush Country” chronicles her experience as a former Washington, D.C., resident living on the Flat Top Sheep Ranch near Carey. The symposium will also feature a handful of ranch women with stories to tell, including an Oregon woman who takes in people for two to three weeks each spring to help with the lambing. The dude ranch experience helps her stay in business. And it gives her an opportunity to share what she loves about sheep ranching. In addition, the symposium will feature tributes to such women as Epi Inchausti, whose Hailey boardinghouse helped homesick Basque sheepherders settle into a strange land. And 95-year-old Miriam McFall Starlin, whose poems describe growing up on a sheep ranch outside Shoshone in the early 1900s. The Western Folklife Center will record the stories to include in its archives. The day will conclude with

a showing of the film “Heartland,” a movie based on the true story of a woman who moves to Montana to be the housekeeper for a crusty old Scottish rancher, at 7:30 p.m. at the nexStage Theatre. Executive producer Annick Smith, who helped Robert Redford found the Sundance Institute and later co-produced his movie, “A River Runs Through It,” will introduce and field questions about it afterwards. “Most of us anymore didn’t grow up on a ranch or farm. So I think many of us will gain empathy about what these women faced to keep their ranch, their families, together,” said Mary Austin Crofts, executive director of the festival. The writing workshop has sold out its original hundred spots. But organizers are keeping a waiting list and hope to be able to shoehorn as many as 40 additional people into the symposium, Crofts said. The film showing costs $10 for adults, with tickets available at Iconoclast Books and at the door. Children will be admitted free. tws

Michael Edminster, from page 1 beef and fresh vegetables that the Faulkners supplied them with, along with German chocolate cake she baked in the camp stove and occasional meals from lamb her husband butchered. Edminster usually rose about 5 each morning, riding his horse above the sheep, which have a tendency to wander uphill. He’d watch them to see whether there was enough dew on the grass for them to get the water they needed or whether he needed to take them to a creek. And he’d move them every few days to avoid overgrazing. He napped when they napped—they didn’t do much running around in the heat of the day, given their wool coats. And, always, he found himself reaching into his saddlebags for a camera. “I found an old Kodak Brownie when I was 15 and started shooting the rose gardens around Tacoma where I grew up,� Edminster said. “When my father discovered I was into photography, he turned my bedroom closet into a darkroom.� Edminster said he had no guard dogs when he was a sheepherder. In those days, it was feral dogs that had been abandoned in the desert that created the most havoc. Blizzards could also be a problem. “Once I thought I’d lost 2,000 sheep. All of a sudden I saw little mounds of snow move. The sheep had bedded down, nice and warm in their wool coats. When the sun came up, they got up. The snow was so deep, we couldn’t get supplies in for days.� Edminster left sheepherding in 1986 as the construction industry revived. “If we hadn’t had kids, I’d still be doing it. But we thought we needed to take them into town and get them civilized,� he said. He contends herding sheep was his best job and his worst job. “Sheep are so incredibly stupid,� he explained. “I had one sheep that refused to cross a bridge over a ditch. I went back to check on her after I’d gotten the rest of the sheep where they needed to go. She’d laid down and died rather than cross water three inches deep to get to green grass on the other side.� Edminster still turns off at every dirt road he comes across, looking for pictures of the landscape, weathered barns and, of course, sheep. Tile and stone jobs enable him to pursue his passion, supplying him the paycheck he just needed to replace the mirror on his digital Canon camera, which wore out after 96,000 shots. “Even with its growth, this area is still great for photography,� he said. “You can still go a half hour in any direction and get away from civilization.� tws

Book Signing with Author of A Dog for all Seasons Sunday at Chapter One BY KAREN BOSSICK

A

n Idaho woman is holding a book signing for her book about a sheep dog during the Trailing of the Sheep Festival. Patti Sherlock, of Idaho Falls, will hold a signing for “A Dog for All Seasons� from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sunday at Chapter One bookstore in conjunction with the Trailing of the Sheep Parade through Ketchum. Sherlock says her 250-page memoir for the adult market relates the story of a sheep dog she got from a Burley rancher. “Duncan, a border collie, was wonderful and clever and extremely sensitive to people’s moods,� she said. “He was also a clown. He lured me into complicated games he made up, including games of hide and seek.

He had the ability to make me laugh when I went through bad times like the loss of my sister.� “If you’ve forgotten how to see miracles in everyday moments, this book will remind you. It’s a story about the real world, the world where human beings live in constant contact with nature, and where animals are more than best friends–they are healers that take away paralyzing fear and replace it with enough bravery to last a lifetime. This is a story that will never leave you,� wrote W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O’Neal Gear, New York Times bestselling authors of People of the Thunder. Sherlock used to have up to 80 ewes, including a breed developed in Idaho called “Polypay.� The breed was designed to provide meat, milk and lamb out of season to take advantage of the Eastern market and the Passover market. tws

Grossbaum Climbs to the Top BY JONATHAN KANE

S

age School senior Raleigh Grossbaum has new heights to climb. That’s because he is an avid rock climber learning his craft at the YMCA this summer as a volunteer and now as a full staff member. “I started two years ago because two friends at school were really into it and I gave it a try and really liked it. It’s just so much fun and really enjoyable. Working at it made me a lot stronger and I was amazed at how quickly I improved. I started off being terrible and within three days I was really improved and twice as good. The immediate gratification was tremendous. This summer at the Y we did a one-week kids camp and it was amazing to see them go from climbing three feet to thirty-three feet. This summer I was able to do some climbing in Twin Falls where there are a lot of great boulders and some of them were twenty feet tall, which was really fun. It’s a sport that I see myself continuing with because it makes me stronger. It’s something that I want to do for a long time.� Born in Sun Valley, Grossbaum lived in Ketchum until three weeks ago when he moved to Hailey. “It was time for a change and we thought we’d mix things up a little bit. There are a lot more people in Hailey, but there’s no climbing wall, which is disappointing. But I also go to school down here so that’s made it much more convenient. Living in this Valley has been great and I’ve enjoyed it a lot. I really like a small community because it’s so relaxed and because it’s so

“It’s a great experience to help people.�

beautiful here. The only problem is that sometimes you don’t appreciate it like you would if you had grown up somewhere else and moved here. You just take it for granted. Of course, there is less to do here. For instance, I play tennis and sometimes it’s hard to find someone to play with. You just don’t have as much access as you would in a big city. I’ve been to the East Coast a lot but it’s so much more stressful there. I’d like to live in a small town but near a big city that has everything. Of course, when I come home from a city I realize how much I love living here. It’s always beautiful and the worst you can do is just hang out in the sun.� This year Grossbaum will be a senior at The Sage School after attending Wood River High School for one year. “I really wanted a change and I went to a Sage School orientation and knew that was the place for me. I fell in love with the structure and it seemed a lot more fun and that I would learn more. It’s so much more fun than a normal school. I’m literally excited every day because it’s so much fun. Once you enjoy yourself at school and you’re happy to be there, you just absorb so much more. Being in a good mood and just enjoying what you’re doing are the big strengths of The Sage School.

The success of this program is dependent upon donations of aluminum from residents of Hailey and surrounding areas. Donations may be dropped off at Wiederrick’s Custom Metalworks, 4051 Glenbrook Drive in the Wood-

We do have grades there, but it’s not as big a deal because it’s more about learning the material than it is to get an A. My class is a combination of juniors and seniors but we all do everything together. This year I’ll be taking math, Spanish, writing, science and college prep classes. For science we’ve built a greenhouse and last year we built garden beds and put in solar panels. Last year we started growing and this year it’s about maintenance. Our mission statement is to give back to the community through volunteer work and we’re working with The Hunger Coalition and Idaho’s Bounty.

Audiences will be able to experience Gustavo Dudamel conducting an all-Mendelsshon program with Dutch virtuoso violinist Janine Jansen in HD. In addition to the full concert performance, each broadcast will transport audiences behind the music for an exclusive “backstage pass� look at the LA Phil, including interviews with Dudamel, world-renowned guest soloists, and the orchestra musicians. This gives viewers a unique opportunity to

learn more about the music and the music-making process. The program consists of the descriptive Hebrides Overture and the “Scottish� Symphony, which are musical souvenirs of Mendelssohn’s 1892 vacation in Scotland and the Hebrides islands. The program also includes Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto. The LA Phil Live concerts are brought to the Wood River Valley by Sun Valley Opera and Metropolitan Theatres. Info: www.metrotheatres. com or 208-578-0971. Tickets may be purchased at the door.

Mixed Up About Paper Recycling?

A

s long as it is NOT a newspaper, a glossy magazine or a catalog, or a corrugated cardboard box, then chances are it recycles in the “mixed paperâ€? bin. The mixed paper category includes paperboard like cereal boxes and shoeboxes, junk mail, file folders, packing paper, paper bags, even wrapping paper. People are often confused about what junk mail can be recycled. The answer is, pretty much all of it— the envelopes, the inserts, the unwanted return envelopes, even envelopes with cellophane windows. Recycle all of that paper, printed or not, even with staples. Setting aside the mixed paper is easy once you get into the swing of it, at home or in the office. The reduced volume in the trash will astound you! Paper that can’t be recycled includes: food-contaminated paper like coffee cups and pizza boxes, “waxedâ€? milk, freezer and juice containers, carbon paper, sanitary products, thermal fax paper, laminated paper, Tyvek envelopes, spiral bindings, and books. Phone books can be recycled, but not curbside; drop them off at Ohio Gulch (likewise your shredded paper). For curbside pick-up, bag your mixed paper and place it in your blue recycling bin. The Ohio Gulch Resource Recovery Center offers free drop-off of mixed paper Monday-Saturday from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. tws Have a question or want to draft your own ERCbeat?

6-7-8, is it God that we appreciate? BY BALI SZABO

U

nfasten your seatbelts and get ready for another excursion to—where else?—the universe, especially since we’re already there. It has been observed that we Bali Szabo can find the universe in a drop of water; to see the structure of a galaxy in a sunflower; that we are stardust, and so we dance with the stars. What follows is the simple illustration that the destination is but a pretext for the journey. We begin with the number six. It is the basement and the frame of our house. It so happens that carbon is the sixth element in the atomic table. It is the fourth most abundant element in the universe. Its sixsided hexagonal structure, efficiently packed together, creates the diamond. It is the third most important element in organic compounds. It combines readily with virtually all other elements to form long chains, like DNA. It most commonly bonds with hydrogen and oxygen (CHO). We frequently refer to life here and in the universe as necessarily carbon based. Further, it is the most abundant element in our biosphere where water can exist in a liquid state—another essential condition for life. Water is all about the number six. Water acts as a liquid only when six molecules are packed together into a hexagon. The hexagon, with six corners and six sides, is the most efficient way to pack a number of identical circles into the smallest possible area. This geometric shape is the most compact way for a structure to fill a space. This is why a diamond, 100 percent carbon, is the hardest substance, and why water cannot be compressed. Frozen water in the shape of a snowflake is a hexagon. This crystal mirrors the structure of mineral crystals, like quartz, as well. (There are a few crystals, based on other elements, that are not hexagonal.) The basic form of natural solids

Photographic ‘God effect’ in a sunset near Arco.

springs from the hexagon, but the number overall accounts for the physical structure of the cosmos—the six directions and the six universal constants of astrophysics. Even beehives consist of hexagons. In spiritual traditions, six is considered the perfect number and implies the divine. In both Christianity’s Genesis and the I Ching’s eight groups of hexagrams, the number six refers to the physical world and the distribution of energy within it. It is the shape of things. The vessel must be filled—the number seven is the content— our philosophies, religions, ethics, laws, character and purpose, insight, conscience and genetic memory all

fill the vessel. If six is angular, seven is circular. It is the spiral, the helix, the shapes water and carbon form to create intelligence—the elasticity of mind. The number eight is our attempt at synthesis between the material and the spiritual. So, do numbers and mathematics invent reality, or do they discover and make intelligible small pieces of it? Are the numbers there whether we exist or not? The quip says, ‘If God didn’t exist, we’d have to invent Him.’ Next week, the tug of war, as yet unresolved, tws between discovery and invention. If you have question or comments, contact Bali at this email: hab4nh@aol.com.

Ask the Guys

Dear Classified Guys, I've been apartment hunting for a few weeks now. The apartments that I saw have been, shall we say, slightly less desirable than their ads. One advertised, "water views". But when I got there, I found that "water view" meant the balcony overlooked the neighbor's pool. Worse yet, the neighbor liked to sunbathe in the nude‌and he wasn't an attractive man! Do newspapers police their classifieds for these types of ads or are we readers on our own?

• • •

Carry: Your circumstance

sounds like a bad TV show where the overweight nudist blocks a good view. Cash: Although if you found the neighbor attractive, you might be asking us a different question like how to get invited to use the neighbor's pool? Carry: Most newspapers are very careful about protecting their reputation. They typically take precautions to verify the information they print, including their classified ads. Cash: Unfortunately, newspapers can't check out all items advertised in their classified section.

Fast Facts Renter's Anonymous

Duane “Cashâ€? Holze & Todd “Carryâ€? Holze 10/02/11 ŠThe Classified GuysÂŽ

They have to rely on the sincerity of the customer. In your case, apartment hunting can be very subjective. To a college student, a hot plate and microwave could be considered a gourmet kitchen. Carry: What one person thinks of as spacious, another may consider an oversized closet. It's up to you to check out the ads that use words like "charming", "cozy" or "romantic". To many of us, those words translate into a place too small to accommodate the family when they visit. Cash: Although for a lot of people, there's no apartment large enough for when family drops in. Carry: To protect their reputation, newspapers may turn down

ads they feel are not beneficial to the readers. However, they can't police everything. Cash: Much of the time, they rely on the feedback of their readers. If you are finding that classified ads are consistently misrepresented, then you can always let them know. Carry: It sounds like your best chance to improve your apartment hunting is to ask a lot more questions on the telephone before you visit. Question exactly what the owner means by "water views" or ask about the square footage, room sizes, or amenities. Cash: The more you know up front, the less there is to shock you when you meet the neighbors.

How is your renting experience? We all choose to rent for a variety of reasons: temporary living, lifestyle, saving money for a house, etc. But how many of us are happy with the renting experience? According to a Fannie Mae National Housing Survey, only about 30% of current renters rate their experience as positive. That's a disappointing number compared to the over 80% of homeowners who rate homeownership as a positive experience. So try to make the best of it and work with your landlord to make renting an enjoyable experience.

Discount Please

Would you like a discount on your rent? If so, try this technique next time you're signing a lease. Offer to pay your rent check a month in advance if the landlord will knock off a few bucks. You can also offer to do a few odd jobs around the grounds like mowing the lawn, shoveling snow, watering or planting flowers. Offer to be a helpful tenant and the landlord may be willing to help you out as well. •

Reader Humor Playing Games

I answered an ad for a room available in an apartment shared with two other guys. When I looked at the apartment, I met the perfect example of the "Odd Couple". The one showing me around was a meticulous guy who kept all of his things perfectly neat. His roommate, however, was just the opposite. His room was a disaster and he piled the dishes until every last one was used. While I looked around, Mr. Neat yelled to his counterpart eating on the couch, "You haven't done the dishes in a week. Where did you get that cup?" I almost fell over laughing when his roommate replied, "Where do you think? I grabbed it out of the Yatzee game." (Thanks to Tony J.)
