Watch Out for Random Acts of Kindness BY KAREN BOSSICK

C

ommunity School students are vying to make theirs the kindest school in the nation. The student body is taking part in a national campaign called “15 Days of Kindness” to see who can perform, document and inspire the most random acts of kindness in their community. The program, started in 2008, was inspired by a little boy who opened a door for an elderly woman with a walker while his mother was conducting business in a bank. “He didn’t do it for recognition. He did it, simply, to be kind,” said Think Kindness founder Brian Williams, a motivational speaker from Reno, Nev. “Our goal is to inspire kids across the country to incorporate giving and kindness in their lives,” he added. So far, more than 78,000 students from across the country, including students from schools in Annapolis, Md., and New York City, have taken part, documenting more than 320,000 acts of kindness. Some student’s acts have taken on global significance, said Williams. One middle school student, for instance, decided she wanted to help solve the problem of lack of access to safe drinking water in Kenya. She filmed a YouTube video that went viral, she got a chance to present her spiel on The Today Show, and she traveled to Kenya where straws that filter water are being presented to students. Think Kindness has raised thousands of dollars for charities around the country and collected more than 200,000 shoes for children around the world, among other things. Community School students will be up against students from Carson City, Nev., this time around. They hope to go up against Wood River High School students next semester. The students will hand out a kindness card for every act of kindness they perform. Each card comes with a code that, when entered online, will display each act that has been performed, along with where that card has traveled. Students can log in to check on how the initial act of kindness they performed has a ripple effect. Students have set up a Facebook page and website to document the journey the random acts of kindness take. The program is being sponsored locally by Wild Gift, a local non-profit that provides a mentorship program for young social entrepreneurs who have a plan to creative innovative solutions for challenges facing the world. “We want to see how many acts of kindness our community can inspire and document in November,” said Wild Gift’s Jeff Brendel. “We want to tws start a ripple effect.”

A Faux Arts Artist STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

K

atharine Sheldon deftly lays a sliver of gold leaf onto a painting she’s made of a woman’s head, forming a halo as she does. She takes another sliver and lays it atop the woman’s robe, which she made by mixing an egg yolk with natural pigments. Sheldon is finding that she digs this ancient art form centuries after fresco was the art du jour. “What I like about it is that it’s very organic,” she said. “It’s earth. It’s green. I’m not exposing myself to chemicals like oil paints that are going to make me sick. And I like the look of pigments imprinted into plaster. That’s what made fresco so interesting in the Renaissance.” Sheldon, who lives in Hailey, incorporated fresco into her repertoire last spring when the College of Southern Idaho-affiliated Sawtooth Institute needed someone to demonstrate the egg tempera and fresco techniques used during the 13th and 14th centuries for its Art of Siena symposium. Sheldon was only too happy to include it into her quiver of tools for her Creative Paint Finishes business, which couples Old World techniques with modern materials and technology. A modern-day Renaissance artist, Sheldon creates custom surface treatments for walls and ceilings. She does trompe l’oeil, an art technique by which she fools the eye into thinking a painting is an actual flower vase in an alcove or a window opening onto a French garden. She’s done murals turning children’s walls into aquariums. She’s imprinted leaves into the surfaces of walk-in closets. She’s made wooden bookshelves look like marble and painted what resembles fabrics on walls and mosaics and floor canvases on cement floors. She’s endowed countertops with crackled and aged finishes and applied decoupage to walls. And she’s treated ceilings so that they look as if you’re looking into the sky. Dixie Grant, who has a condo in Ketchum and a home in Boise which she uses for fundraisers and other large gatherings, says there are not enough adjectives in the world to describe Sheldon’s work: “She transformed my house and condo with wall finishes, and amazing finishes.” Sheldon transformed Grant’s institutional-looking condo with its white wall and white ceiling by putting a relief and bamboo on the wall. She “marbleized” a wooden cabinet that had delaminated. She painted wood grain on sheetrock. And she added texture via raised surfaces with plastic to which she stenciled in

Frescoes are one of many of the creative finishes Katharine Sheldon can offer her clients.

artistic details. “She’s always learning new techniques—she put a combination of shredded cotton and silk mixed with gold mica and specks of silver on my 12-foot ceiling. Not only does it twinkle at night but it dampens the noise you get when you get a crowd in the house,” said Grant. “She also made my soapstone countertops, which I couldn’t stand, look like granite. I love to take people in and pull back the shower curtain to show them old contrasted with the new. Everybody is like, ‘Wow!’ ” Sheldon, who studied art at Bethel College and the University of Minnesota, moved to Ketchum from Portland, Ore., to pursue art with the Sun Valley Center for the Arts.

She was taking advantage of a lull in her landscaping business one winter when she began her exercise in creativity. She bought a book on faux finishes and decided she wanted to try each project the book talked about. “Now I go wherever my mind can take me,” she said. “This has been an amazing journey that has taken me from being a house painter to a creator able to use my art background. I love the fact that creative options seem endless. Every time I turn around I get led down a different road. I’m not just an oil painter. I’m not just an acrylic painter. I’m a creator.” A construction worker who saw a wood-

Exploring Between Lines of Fairy Tales

MONEY $AVING COUPON!

BY KAREN BOSSICK

F

airy tales get a fresh take this weekend when Company of Fools and the Sun Valley Center for the Arts present “Happily Ever After?” The concerts—at 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday—present a new spin on selections from some of America’s favorite fairytale musicals, including “Cinderella,” “Mary Poppins,” “Shrek,” “Wicked,” “The Little Mermaid,” “Once Upon a Mattress” and “Into the Woods.” “We’re examining fairy tales from a musical theater standpoint in collaboration with The Center and their ‘Happily Ever After?’ exhibit,” said Fools’ Musical Director R.L. Rowsey. “We’re looking at issues like what it means to go into the woods. And we’re looking at how fairy tale characters have had to recreate family and how they’ve looked for love and belonging since they usually do not have the traditional family structure.” The concerts, under the direction of John Glenn, will feature three locals, including Rowsey. Jana Arnold received two Los Angeles Dramalogue Awards for Outstanding Performance. Tenor John Mauldin has performed for the Boise Philharmonic and Sun Valley Company’s “Forever Plaid.” Mauldin has been praised by the Salt Lake Tribune for his “polished technique” and his “appealingly light, flexible tenor voice.” There also are three guest artists. Teri Bibb played Christine in more than a thousand performances of “The Phantom of the Opera” on Broadway. She also has performed at Carnegie Hall, London’s Royal Albert Hall and on several film scores, including “Ice Age” and “Polar Express.” Bibb’s husband, Andy Umberger, had to ask permission to leave the Los Angles musical “Silence! The Musical”—a takeoff on “Silence of the Lambs”—to perform in these concerts. And New York’s Garrett Long, who replaced Liz Larsen on short notice when Larsen landed a TV role, has appeared in several Broadway productions, including “Bonnie and Clyde” and “South Pacific.” Company of Fools artist De-

nise Simone is writing a script that ties together and sets up the songs. And Rowsey is writing the arrangements. There will, for instance, be a fun version of “Mary Poppins’ “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious” and “Stepsisters Lament” from “Cinderella” done in Andrew Sisters’ fashion. And Rowsey will perform a tune from “Shrek,” although he will not be putting on green makeup for it. “I know I’ve gained a greater respect of what happily ever after means. Does it mean finding what you thought you wanted? Or finding what you needed?” he said. “Oftentimes these characters go into the woods looking for one thing and end up with another.” The performances are fully sponsored by Jeri Wolfson so that ticket revenue can be directed toward the evolving partnership between the Company of Fools and the Sun Valley Center for the Arts. The exhibition that inspired the performance runs through Nov. 30 at The Center, Fifth and Washington streets in Ketchum. tws

gatha Christie struck pay dirt with “The Mousetrap.” It not only exceeded her expectations but it outlasted her, becoming the longest-running non-musical show of the modern era. “The Mousetrap” opened in 1952 and has chalked up more than 25,000 performances, with the play still running in London. Now, Laughing Stock Theatre Company will present the classic murder mystery Thursday through Sunday and Nov. 15 through 18 at the nexStage Theatre in Ketchum. Laughing Stock will present its third Agatha Christie play in as many years beginning Thursday when it performs “The Mousetrap.” The show will run Nov. 8 through 11 and 15 through 18 at the nexStage Theatre, 120 S. Main St. in Ketchum. Curtain times are 7 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays. The play takes place in a monastery on the outskirts of London that has been converted into a guesthouse. “There is a story there that encompasses all the twists and turns and dramatic nuances that Dame Agatha has used over the years,” said Director Jamey Reynolds. “And it’s a very human story, as opposed to others that are very much murder mysteries.” “The Sherlock Holmes mysteries, for instance, are nothing that any of us will ever really experience. This play depicts real people in very tragic circumstances and depicts how they try to struggle with the events that come into their lives—that

They are Cyndi DuFur, Cam Cooper, Dawson Howard, MacKenzie Harbaugh, Doug Neff, J.D. Ryan, Anja Sundali and Joy Bond. This is the third Agatha Christie play Laughing Stock Theatre Company has presented in as many years. It kicked off the series with “And Then There Was None” and followed that up with the Hercules Poirot fable, “Black Coffee.” “I had thought about doing either ‘Frankenstein’ or ‘Dracula’ for Halloween, but there was already three, four plays being presented then. And when we presented ‘Black Coffee,’ everyone said, aren’t you going to do

‘Mousetrap?’ ” Reynolds said. “The Mousetrap” is tougher than many other murder mysteries to stage, Reynolds acknowledged, because it’s not your typical melodramatic murder mystery. “But I realized some of our community theater actors are pretty good. I’m enjoying this journey more than any in a long time. I have a great cast of actors who are so eager to work and want to be a team. It’s going to be a great run.” tws

eri Burnett plans to open an anti-aging clinic in Ketchum later this month. The plastic surgeon will introduce her Venus Freeze skin care machine and the other services she offers, including bio-identical hormone replacement, nutrition/supplement counseling and weight loss program at the 20th annual Business Showcase on Thursday, Nov. 15. The free event, which features information, giveaways and refreshments, will be held from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. in Sun Valley’s Limelight Room. “Someone told us it was a great way to introduce ourselves to the community,� said Naomi Thomas, who is assisting Burnett. The Business Showcase was started 20 years ago by retiring state legislator Wendy Jaquet to promote local businesses, said former Sun Valley/Ketchum Chamber Director Carol Waller. It’s proven useful to established businesses, as well as new businesses, said Rob Santa, whose Sturtevants Mountain Outfitters has been in the show since its inception. “It’s a lot of show and tell,� Santa said. “It gives us a way to share information about the latest innovations in outdoor gear and the programs we’re offering. And it’s a condensed, efficient way to learn what’s going on with other businesses and non-

profits in the valley. I know I’ve always learned things by going around the various booths. Plus, it’s a lot of fun.� Liz Roquet, of Lizzy’s Fresh Coffee, echoed Santa’s sentiments. “I really enjoy that event because it gives local businesses a chance to talk to the local public. I always get to introduce myself to potential customers that did not know of me before,� she said. “This year I have some new holiday labels to display. And I have a new holiday blend that anyone would want to curl up with.� Zions Bank stepped in to sponsor the Business Showcase a couple of years ago to help support local businesses when the Sun Valley/Ketchum Chamber was disbanded, said Jeffra Syms, a spokesperson for the bank. Zions now co-sponsors the event with Sun Valley Company. “We are committed to making this year’s event the most successful and well-attended showcase to date,� Syms added. “Our involvement is a result of our strong belief that this is truly one of the few, if not only, opportunities that the business community has to introduce the sales, services and products it offers to fellow business owners and consumers alike.� There are still some spaces for businesses to showcase their products.

a recipe…from my table to yours A

s a young adult, the thought of cooking something as mundane as meatloaf, which was not within the realm of French cooking with all its fascinating herbs and spic-

es, and guru Julia Child, who was my mentor, did not appeal to me, until I found this recipe one day, and now it’s a staple in our house, right alongside spaghetti and wok cooking.

It’s fun to make with another pair of hands—kids or husband can grate the carrot or chop the parsley. Oven time is 1 hour plus a few more minutes at a higher temperature. Serves 6. tws

dinner

Meatloaf with Bacon by Polly Holland 1 and 1/2 lbs. ground beef 13-oz. can chopped tomatoes 1 1/4 C. herbed stuffing mix 1 small onion, chopped 1 carrot, coarsely shredded 3 garlic cloves, crushed

2 Tbsp. chopped parsley 1 egg, beaten 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce Salt and pepper 4 or 5 slices of bacon

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Take a loaf pan 8 1/2” by 4 1/2” and line with bacon strips sideways, hanging a little over the side. Combine remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Use your fingers to work everything together. Put the bowl contents into the loaf pan on top of bacon slices, folding the bacon edges on top. The loaf pan is not used to bake in; it’s just a mold pan that you turn over into a roasting pan. The bacon then is on the top. Baste once or twice for 1 hour. Increase heat for 10 minutes to 450. Serve hot. It’s the best leftover served on toast the next day. Thank you, Heidi, for your recipe. Enjoy everyone!

Must-Share from a Local Cookbook BY MARGOT VAN HORN

T

he Ketchum Arts and Crafts Festival was really a wonderful one this year. I went with a dear friend and she played the spin game at The Advocate’s booth and won their beautiful “Sun Valley Celebrities & Local Heroes” 2001 cookbook. My friend never uses cookbooks, so lucky me was gifted the winnings! It is a favorite of many of our local cooks and I think, truly, that it contains fabulous recipes, plus gorgeous pictures by our own Will Caldwell. One recipe I really like is by Muffy Ritz. So I called her and she gave me permission to reprint it here in my column in The Weekly Sun. Muffy prefaces this recipe by saying: “Sauces make the world go ’round! I don’t like spending too much time cooking when there are so many other things to do, but I love good food. This recipe is very easy, very fast and very good.” And, indeed, every word quoted is true. So, for those of you who don’t have this book yet, here is Muffy’s recipe: (and, by the way, this cookbook would make a wonderful Christmas present and would benefit a good cause as well—so put it on your Santa list!) Curried Game Hens a la Muffy Ritz as shown in the Sun Valley Celebrities and Local Heroes Cookbook benefiting The Advocates (2001) Serves 2 big appetites or 4 smaller ones Ingredients: 2 game hens (20 oz.) defrosted (you also can use regular chicken) 1 1/2 to 2 Tbsp. curry powder (Muffy uses a combo of sweet curry and hot curry in this recipe and reminds cooks that curry powder’s shelf life is about 6 months.) 2 Tbsp. soy sauce 1/2 C. mustard (I used the yellow ordinary kind)

1/2 C. honey Optional: raisins (I used currants), sliced onion, sliced mushrooms Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine above ingredients, including the optional ones, and place in a casserole dish. Place the game hens in the dish and marinate for 10-15 minutes, turning frequently. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes, then flip the hens over, remove the foil and bake another 30 minutes until done. Serve with couscous (I used millet) and colorful vegetables. This sauce is great on the couscous. Additional notes from Margot: How to cook millet: Millet, which I buy out of the bin, is a staple throughout Africa and in much of Asia. It is gluten-free whereas couscous is not and is rich in the B vitamins as well as containing other valuable nutrients. So, for those who wish a gluten-free side dish, millet is perfect and it tastes much like couscous. Ingredients: 2 Tbsp. olive oil &/or butter 1 C. rinsed millet Salt and pepper 2 C. chicken stock Minced fresh parsley leaves for garnish Directions: Place oil/butter in a medium saucepan and turn heat to medium. When oil/butter is hot, add the millet, salt and pepper, and stir, cooking until the millet has a glossy look to it—1 to 2 minutes. Add the liquid, cover, turn heat to low and cook about 20 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed and the millet is tender. Garnish with parsley leaves. Thanks again, Muffy.

Olympic Designation STORY & PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

T

he Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation has been designated as the primary operator of a U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Training Site for cross-country skiing. It is the 15th designated training site in the United States. The U.S. Olympic Committee and the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association announced the designation Tuesday. “The Wood River Valley has shown a strong commitment to assisting America’s finest athletes pursue excellence,” said Alicia McConnell, USOC director of training sites and community partnerships. “We applaud their efforts and look forward to a valuable partnership with both the Sun Valley Ski Education Foundation and USSA.” The first step will be presenting a strategic plan to the community, said Don Wiseman, executive director of the SVSEF. “You’re not going to see major buildings, training centers go up. This is about many partners collectively working together to do more to create a better training experience for elite athletes. We’ve already received information on grants we can apply for,” he said. Though designated Nordic, the community has the opportunity to move into other sports, such as alpine skiing and freestyle skiing, Wiseman added. Wood River Ability Program Director Marc Mast, who coached Paralympian medalists Muffy Davis and Andy Soule, said he proposed the possibility of being a training site to the SVSEF, Blaine County Recreation District, and Sun Valley/Ketchum Chamber about three years ago after recognizing that Sun Valley met 98 percent of the criteria. “It was just a matter of getting organized and getting the community behind it. It was embraced by everyone,” he said. Luke Bodensteiner, USSA executive vice president of athletes, said Sun Valley has already been a strong part of the Olympic development pipeline and that the partnership will open up additional opportunities for athletes looking to train here.

Marine Sgt. Omar Bermejo, a veteran from Tucson, Ariz., participated in a Nordic biathlon training camp at Sun Valley last spring, learning to shoot with just one arm and hand after losing his right arm in an accident. He is among those who will benefit from Sun Valley’s new designation as an official Olympic training site.

services, including sports science and medicine, top-level coaching, media exposure and funding opportunities. Mast, who will work with SVSEF as a Paralympic provider, said he expects the designation will enable him to develop better athletes. “It’ll bring better branding more funding. And we’ll be recognized nationally,” he said. “It also should benefit the community economically as it attracts more people and, perhaps, events to Sun Valley.” tws

Let’s Talk

TAKERS

The Ecological Terrorism of Cheatgrass he 19 -century West was home to all manner of immigrants, including various grasses, weeds, flowering plants and trees. Some of these have become very successful, like Russian thistle (tumbleweed) or Russian olive. We call them invasive because, for one reason or another, are able to outcompete the natives, usually with some help from man. Among the many we have to deal with here in Idaho and the neighboring Great Basin is the ubiquitous cheatgrass, Bromus tectorum. It arrived in contaminated seed and straw from Eurasia, brought here for livestock, and the railroad spread it. By the late 19th century, cattle grazing was big business. A good 200 million acres in our four-state area of Oregon, Idaho, Nevada and Utah eventually became extensively overgrazed. The delicate habitat of shrubs and bunchgrasses didn’t even have to contend with buffalo, the gentle grazer. This was prime habitat for mule deer and sage grouse. The grazing stripped the land of its food and cover, and the animals either moved or died off. The soil, exposed to the scouring wind, began to erode. (The U.S. loses several inches of topsoil each year from overgrazing and industrial agriculture. Our aquifers, like the vital Ogalalla, lose over a foot of water per year. These are forms of national debt we can never repay.) With little or no competition, cheatgrass found a perfect home. It began a self-sustaining feedback cycle that is with us today. Unlike the sparse bunchgrass, cheatgrass grows in dense patches and reseeds prolifically, as much as 50,000 seeds per square meter. An annual, it dies by midsummer and becomes a flammable monoculture carpet that’s easily ignited. The fire cycle has been dramatically accelerated. The grass burns every three to 10 years, whereas native habitat burns every 30 to 70 years. Fires accelerate soil erosion, making it more difficult for natives to root, whereas the profuse grass seed sprouts readily the following spring. Herbicides work, but destroy only a portion of the seed supply, which then sprout the following year, doubling the cost of an already expensive procedure. This hinders restoration efforts, which didn’t begin in earnest until 2000, after a series of large fires over the preceding 15 years decimated millions of acres. Today, cheatgrass is established in 25 percent of this four-state area, and it has become a monoculture in 10-plus-million acres. It also paves the way for even worse plants, like thistle, knapweed and medusahead rye. Shattered environments are like war-ravaged countries, tough to restore and ideal breeding ground for political or ecological terrorism. To be able to restore 50 million acres is

a near-impossible task, and most of our efforts are concentrated in wilderness study areas and sage grouse habitat. Some additional funding becomes available after a fire, but that’s reactive, not proactive, management. Ironically, one good thing about keeping the sage grouse off the endangered species list is that it allows for habitat restoration efforts. Scientists are working on engineering bioagents to fight the grass. A fungus called the Black Fingers of Death, which came over from Eurasia already attached to the seed, is being strengthened and then applied to invaded areas. Restoration is impeded by aridity, which inhibits the germination of re-seeded areas. A light snow year, like 2011, hurts (less water and too much cold), as does eroded clay/stone hardpan. Thinking out of the box may help, like seeding weedy natives that can compete with cheatgrass, not usually included in restoration seed mixes. We also need a lot of seed, and demand exceeds supply. The USDA Agricultural Research Service and the Forest Service Rocky Mountain Research Station, both in Boise, are all working on the many aspects of this problem. tws

ith some snow on the high peaks and the guns putting down a base on Baldy we are on the verge of a new ski season. Many of us now find ourselves paging through the new ski magazines and visiting the shops checking out the new gear While the technology in skis has been accelerating rapidly providing ever increasing performance and fun, our most important consideration should be what drives these skis, our boots. A responsive and comfortable boot will absolutely be the key to enjoying our skiing more! So what’s new in boots? There have been a lot of developments in the boot world with most manufacturers now offering different types of fit within their own brand. Salomon for example offers a lower volume/narrower fit in the X-Max and Instinct models and a more relaxed fit in the Impact and Idol series. In general the industry is aiming to control the critical ankle and heel areas of the boot for better performance, while allowing a bit more room in the forefoot for better foot articulation and comfort. Cuff angles have also become a bit more relaxed for a more upright stance. Two seasons ago Lange through away the molds in favor of all new molds to incorporate these concepts in the RS and RX series of boots. While we’ve had a variety of custom boot liners available in the marketplace, we are now seeing further development in the customization of shells. With great acclaim Fischer introduced the revolutionary “Vacuum” series of boots last season, incorporating a proprietary plastic shell that is heated and “vacuumed” around the foot creating a fully customized shell. Meanwhile, Salomon has expanded on their “Custom Shell” concept. Possibly the biggest buzz in the boot world this fall is expanded offerings in “sidecountry” boots. Designed for both lift serviced use within the ski area boundaries, and out of bounds or backcountry use, these boots incorporate a hike mode where the upper cuff can be released for easier and more comfortable touring. Most models also adopt a more aggressive sole for better traction when not on skis. These models can offer the ultimate in versatility for skiers seeking one boot to do it all and have also become a popular choice for those working on the mountain, i.e. coaches and ski patrol. There is alot of new technology available this season to make your skiing more comfortable and enjoyable so come on in and check out all the new models, and think snow!!

Lonesome No More BY JAMIE CANFIELD, PROGRAM DIRECTOR FOR KSKI 103.7 FM

I

n the past few years, acoustic accompaniment in rock music seems to have made a comeback. Bands like Fleet Foxes and Animal Collective, among others, have taken Freak Folk and Chamber Pop to the next level, and others have followed suit. In an age when everything is literally plugged in, bands are taking a step back to using acoustic instruments to forge a sound that takes us back to the days of Arthur Lee and Love, The Walker Brothers, and The Incredible String Band. The latest to join the fray is Lord Huron, a band from Los Angeles with roots in rural Michigan. Their debut album Lonesome Dreams sweeps a broad swath of organic instrumentation reminiscent of early My Morning Jacket. Pastoral references to nature abound, like most of the compositions were written by bandleader Ben Schneider after a series of long walks in the woods. Comparisons to

Fleet Foxes will be made; they share a love of vocal harmonies with plenty of reverb, but aside from that, Lord Huron’s songs stand out with a certain ambience that’s completely their own. While Fleet Foxes’ vocals are the impetus of their sound, it’s Lord Huron’s instrumentation that makes the music bounce along like a buckboard. “Time To Run� begins like a morning sunrise and evolves into a lively polyrhythmic acoustic pop song that sways like a grassy field on a sunny day. Lonesome Dreams takes you to a serene place in your mind with its dreamy pop; go there now. tws

movie review

A Cappella Overload BY JONATHAN KANE

I

find myself in a tough position reviewing the new movie Pitch Perfect. Obviously aimed at the fans of the television show Glee, which I’ve never seen, the movie is just another example of Hollywood’s propensity for lame product. I also have problems because singing and dancing bores me to tears, as does a movie solely aimed at twentysomethings. The story follows a strict formula which is based on the success of the cheerleader movie Bring It On; instead, in this film, it’s collegiate a cappella groups that face off. I guess it’s a cappella because in the movie all the singing is accompanied by thunderous bass and drums. You can just see the producers that dreamed this up feeling that a cappella singing just wasn’t powerful enough so a rhythm section was added to the mix. Having said that, there is one saving grace in the performance of Australian actress Rebel Wilson, who steals every scene that she’s in. The ample actress goes by the name of Fat Amy because

Jon rated this movie

she says that’s what everyone says behind her back, but she sure can act, sing and dance. If you’ve seen Bring It On, then you know the story. An outsider, played by Anna Kendrick (Up In the Air), reluctantly joins the all-girl group on campus – the Bellas. Soon she locks horns with the group’s leader, Anna Camp, who’s controlling ways and her propensity for delightful projectile vomiting has made the Bellas outdated. Along the way the obligatory romance between Kendrick and Skylar Astin develops. The film climaxes at Lincoln Center for the big showdown where all the different groups get to showcase their talents. You’ll never guess who wins. Okay, so you guessed—the Bellas in a shocking finale. Rather than spending money on this movie, just rent Bring It On. You might as well see the original. tws

The Punch line

Fate or Chaos tour BY LESLIE THOMPSON

I

f you are a Halloween fanatic, an alien-monster lover or a headbanging enthusiast over the age of 18, you might like to know who’s stopping at Boise’s Knitting Factory this Thursday, Nov. 8 on the Fate or Chaos Tour. The heavy metal of four bands will descend on concertgoers with a lineup including DevilDriver, Legacy of Disorder, Cancer Bats—all leading up to the headliner, Gwar. I recently had the chance to talk with two of them.

GWAR For twenty-seven years Gwar has been setting a shock rock trend with their monstrous lyrics, political banter, and thrash metal/punk sounds backed by outrageous sci-fi-inspired costumes made of rubber, foam and latex. “When you’re in Gwar, every day is Halloween,� lead singer Oderus Urungus explained to me. If that’s the case, do they celebrate Halloween? Oderus revealed that they would dress as humans on that day—himself favoring TV quiz show masters like Alex Trebec or Gene Rayburn of the ’70’s The Match Game. “I just put on the ol’ Rayburn suit and get out there and mix it up with the homeboys and, generally speaking, nobody knows who I am.� How does he feel about people trying to dress up like him on Halloween? “Everybody wants to be a monster—they know it’s a lot of fun,� he explains. “They see me up there doing the voodoo that I do and they want to get involved. But, there’s a lot more to being a monster than just wearing some stupid rubber thing on your head. There’s monster training academy, monster circus school, monster hang-gliding activities. Do you know that you have to have an official monster card?� This card-carrying monster was once an intergalactic correspondent on the Fox News late-night talk show, Red Eye with Greg Gutfield—perhaps he got the position because he and his bandmates were banished to Earth from his home planet of Scumdogia over a quarter of a

century ago. “I’ve been to outer space, I’ve seen what’s out there and I know what can show up on this planet at any moment. You’re just lucky that you’ve got Gwar here protecting you,â€? Oderus revealed. Will Gwar beat Ma Nature to their goal of destroying the human race? “Ever since I’ve been reborn on this planet, I have seen three different times when the human race was convinced they were going to be obliterated. There was 1984‌ then there was the year 2000‌ and now it’s the stupid Mayan thing. It’s all so whatever generation of humans is on the planet at the time feels more important.â€? Of the upcoming show, Oderus said, “Idaho, get ready‌ Gwar’s back as a five-piece metal band and‌ we’re ready to kick ass again.â€?

DEVILDRIVER I spoke with Dez Fafara, lead singer of DevilDriver, just as the tour bus neared his house to wheel him away on the beginning of the month-and-a-half excursion with Gwar. It had been six or seven years since he had toured with Gwar and he was excited. “Every time we’re with them, we have a killer time. And for some reason, our crowds go together well. I’m kinda known as a Halloween guy—I love it— and they’re big scary monsters, so it’s all a good time.� Fafara is hopeful that on this tour they’ll have ample time to do almost a headlining set. He admitted, “It’s important to us. It’s the last time DevilDriver’s going to be in the U.S. until maybe 2014. So we really want to go out with a bang. We’re playing a bunch of stuff that we haven’t played in years and years. Going back to that stuff—it’s a good time for everybody,� he added. Fafara’s musical career also spans the gap to include a Native American music album, High Desert Moon. On the album he performs spoken word and the Native American flute. What brought this heavy-metal front man to learn the flute? He admits to having always been influenced by Native American culture. “My mom gave me a Kokopelli necklace when I was

about 10.� And, despite doctors telling him he would never fully mend from a broken finger when he was younger, his determination to recover brought him down a path where he learned to play the flute. “It’s just another part of me that I love. I love all music. People that know me as an artist know that I just don’t listen to only metal. I listen to blues, punk, jazz. The range goes very far.� Fafara does plenty more to keep himself busy, including the release of the solo song, Dark Meadowlark, to help raise funds for his sister Kerri’s breast cancer treatment (www.DezFafara. com for details). And, after a nearly decadelong hiatus, he recently reunited with his old band, Coal Chamber. It’s no secret that drugs topped the list of things that originally tore the band apart, and Fafara is not quiet about his stance on hard drugs. “I’m not into that, I’m a family man.� I asked him if he’d ever thought of doing public service announcements or anti-meth campaigns. “I would certainly do something like that. But, look, the bottom line is, if you’re doing meth, you know it’s not good. The inner soul tells you what’s good and what’s bad for yourself. I think that people need to listen to themselves, more than trying to listen to someone else.� As for his old bandmates, Fafara says, “It’s amazing to see them off of hard drugs.� What’s next for Coal Chamber? “They’re kinda like a fine woman—you gotta take her out and date her a couple times, and just figure it out before you even want to slip her a kiss.� Fans can look for DevilDriver to release their sixth album late next fall. tws

Ashley Prior 1/7/1988 — 10/23/2012

shley has left us and gone on to the afterlife. Our beloved defiant angel, always wearing her favorite blacks, had many qualities and friends. She touched so many people’s hearts in this community with her charismatic sense of humor. She really lit up a room, always pushing the magical envelope with her silly Ashleyness ways. Ashley was incredibly compassionate about others’ feelings. She had a vision of accepting other people’s strengths and weaknesses without judgment. She once said inner beauty radiates within, without any exterior judgements. Ashley was a master of visualizing a person’s selfworth and had the great ability to keep relationships independent from others and respect everyone in the process. Ashley literally could do anything she wanted to. A BSU student for years, she was also a very accomplished artist and photographer. She loved meeting new people. This old soul was a master of perception of what’s real — she always said what was really going on and said the truth, at all costs. Her angelic defiance and demons often mislead the norm of reality and took her down a destructive path. Ashley loved to write poems and was always seeking to cover what the world is about — and into the afterlife. Ashley was competitive in all sports. She was served by a plethora of family who dearly supported her to

the end. Our backstreet angel of self-will will always be remembered for doing it her way all the way to the end of her journey. She is survived by her rock, her mother Gigi, her shining star little brother Mal, whom she often talked about, her superstar sister Jess, and her loving, supportive and turbulent two dads, Mal and Steve. Rest in peace, Ashley. Enjoy your new adventure. We all love and thank you unconditionally and look forward to seeing you on the other side. tws

CELEBRATION OF LIFE

An honor celebration of Ashley’s life will be held at 3:30 p.m. this Friday, Nov. 9 at the Prayer Wheel in the Garden of Infinite Compassion, located at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden on Hwy 75.

How Are You Warming Up?

W

hen frost starts nipping at our noses, it’s easy to crank up the heat instead of thinking up a smart, and less costly, strategy for staying toasty. Here is a painless regimen to keep you warmer, and put less strain on the planet. This winter, resolve to set the furnace 10 degrees lower at night than during the day. This is easy to accomplish with a programmable thermostat. Imagine yourself sleeping cozy with a down or fiberfill comforter or a pile of blankets. The thermostat switches on the heat thirty minutes before your alarm goes off and boosts the temp just A few degrees. Still chilly? Using a heat lamp in the bathroom will warm it up for those few minutes while you shower. Then, use a space heater to warm your

toes while you have breakfast. Slippers and a fluffy bathrobe will help, too. There’s no need to warm up the whole house to comfort level because you will be leaving for work soon. Just before your return, that smart thermostat will warm up the house for the evening. For weekends, set up a special program to accommodate sleeping later, staying up later, and keeping the house comfortable while the family is home for the day. Let your thermostat work for you; it’ll pay off the initial investment in reduced energy bills, perhaps the very first winter. Have a question, or want to write your own ERCbeat? Contact the Environmental Resource Center at 208.726.4333 or reduce@ercsv.org. tws

Shelter’s Focus on Prevention Pays Off The Animal Shelter of the Wood River Valley is starting to reap the rewards of its programs. Now celebrating its 30th year of operation, the Animal Shelter used to be plagued by the same issues of dog and cat overpopulation that many other shelters continue to struggle with today. Instead of the mass euthanasia of otherwise adoptable animals common elsewhere, six years ago the Shelter focused on prevention, hired a staff veterinarian, and began offering free

spay/neuter services for any Blaine County resident, in addition to the policy of spaying and neutering 100 percent of animals adopted through the Shelter. Now they are seeing marked decreases in local pet overpopulation. The Shelter is now leveraging this success to increase its community impact and expand its outreach to under-served populations.

Alpine Skiing Is Back

T

BY BALI SZABO

he snow is coming. The first race of the season was a giant slalom, on Oct. 27 in Soelden, Austria. The city puts out the red carpet with fairs and festivals that make this one race a weekend event. Croatian ‘Amazin’ Tina Maze continued her winning form, and beat the Austrians Kathrin Zettel and Stefanie Koehle. In front of 21,000 hardy fans, and in difficult weather on a glacier, American Ted Ligety blew away the competition Manfred Moelg by 2.75 seconds and the great Marcel Hirscher by 3.12 seconds. For once, Ligety was speechless, and couldn’t believe his margin of victory. He has a tendency to relax after a great first run and then blow the race to a hungrier competitor. Ted Ligety complained about the new FIS-mandated slalom skis as a 15-year retreat in the evolution of ski racing. The change was made to protect young, 13-years-old-and-up development team skiers, who have suffered from a statistically higher number of blownout knees. As Mike Craig of Sturtevants explained, “These top World Cup skiers can ski on anything. They can push the envelope on speed and turning ability, but the kids can’t.� The new skis have been in development for several years, and are now ready for the consumer market, as well. The skis have been straightened some to reduce torque in the turns, and so take pressure off the knees. Ligety complained, and then blew away the competition by three seconds. Go figure. Racing resumes with a slalom event in Levi, Finland, Nov.1011. They have lots of great snow. tws

Ski & Snowboard Injury Prevention 2012 By Glen D. Shapiro, M.D., FAAOS

I

t may not be that sexy of a topic, but the following lines may keep you whole this winter season when you choose a ‘line’ downhill. Here, I’ll address three common questions I am often asked as a winter sports medicine specialist. What causes ski and snowboarding injuries? The easiest way to get injured on the slopes is skiing or riding our ability, taking too much time on the hill without a rest, incorrect equipment or, worse, equipment failure. Dehydration, fatigue, or failure to acclimatize to altitude can all lead to injury on the hill. What are some of the most common ski injuries? For skiers, a medial collateral ligament (MCL) injury is very common, but anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries will slow you down even more and may require reconstructive surgery. The most common, though, is a ‘skier’s thumb,’ or ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) injury after a fall on an outstretched hand. For snowboarders, a broken

wrist is number one; fractures and dislocations of the elbow and shoulders, including injuries to the AC joint, are common. Another injury, a ‘snowboarder’s ankle’ (talus fracture), could explain the pain you’re experiencing on the outside of the foot/ ankle after a flat landing. An X-ray and sometimes MRI are necessary to make the diagnosis. Don’t keep walking on that painful ankle—it’s best to have an orthopedic evaluation before too much damage is done. Are ski and snowboard injuries preventable? The answer is YES! Below are common-sense things that you can do to be safer on the slopes. 1. Use proper equipment and have a professional release-check your bindings before heading to the hill. 2. Do a daily ‘self-release check’ of your bindings. 3. Dress for conditions; layer your clothing. 4. If you’re a flatlander, take a day to acclimatize to the altitude. Drinking lots of water— not beer, wine or booze—can help you avoid altitude illness. Fortunately, here in Sun Valley,

you’ll likely just be winded or suffer from thigh burn rather than experience altitude sickness. 5. Helmets save lives! A 43 percent reduction in head, neck and facial injuries has been reported in medical literature. 6. Snowboarders – WEAR WRIST GUARDS! 7. Most avalanche injuries can be avoided by using your head before hitting the slopes. Go with a buddy (or three), bring proper safety equipment (beacon, probe and shovel) and know how to use it. Most importantly, know the danger signs and update annually with an avalanche safety course. Finally, KNOW THE CODE— the National Ski Areas Association Responsibility Code. Stay in control; people ahead of you have the right of way. Stop in a safe place, look uphill before starting, and yield to others. Follow signs, listen to the ski patrol, and stay off closed trails. I am always happy and available to answer specific questions and to help out in the unfortunate event that you suffer a winter sports or any other

orthopedic injury. Ski and ride safely, and don’t hesitate to call. Think SNOW!!! tws

A FAUX ARTS ARTIST, from page 1

While My Guitar Gently Weeps BY JONATHAN KANE

C

ameron Jenner, Community School senior and avid musician, wanted a Les Paul guitar, so he built one himself. “It was something that I really wanted,� he said, “so I went online and learned how to do it. The guitar is made of mahogany and maple, but since I didn’t have the money for the wood, I made a plywood model until I could afford it. When I finished the body, I ordered maple for the neck, then I put in the frets and the hardware and wired it. When I was done, I was really excited and now it’s my favorite guitar, especially because it has such a strong midrange. In all it took six months to build and I painted it black. Because it’s plywood, it still has some warps. This summer I worked at Elkhorn and was able to buy the wood I wanted to make a better model. Now it’s being made out of flamed maple, but first the wood has to get acclimated to the dry air, but I hope to be done by the summer, then it will take a month to paint because the wood expands and then contracts, then I’ll let the dyes fade with sunlight until it’s the color of an old guitar.� Jenner has been playing since third grade, where he also learned to read music. In tenth grade he added piano to his repertoire. “My grandfather gave me a small guitar and then I was able to take lessons. My earliest memory is of sitting on his farmhouse porch at sunset learning Green Sleeves and Hot Cross Buns. At that point I was taking lessons in classical guitar once a week and they said I was a natural. I just picked up the concepts fast and liked it a lot and I also practiced a lot. Today, if I hear a cool three-note riff or a song that I really like, I’ll obsess over it and I can’t stop thinking about it.� Jenner played acoustic guitar until the seventh grade, when he got his first electric guitar. “Acoustic is a lot more diverse to me. I can play rock on it as well as any fingering style from classical to flamenco. On electric guitar you feel you want to make noise or play a fast solo.� Although Jenner didn’t play much in middle school, his sophomore year he started taking lessons on the electric guitar. “Since then, I’ve been playing a lot and this summer I studied music theory. Today I study guitar in school and play every day. I’ll play for a half hour but if I have a lot of homework sometimes I will procrastinate and play for three hours. Pretty much I’ll play anything and I also like to write. As to what I listen to, I love Jack White and especially love the movie ‘It Might Get Loud’ with White, the Edge and

“My earliest memory is of sitting on [my grandfather’s] farmhouse porch at sunset learning ‘Green Sleeves’ and ‘Hot Cross Buns.’ � –Cameron Jenner Jimmy Page. Some of my other favorites are the Black Keys, Audioslave and Pink Floyd.� Jenner also has the time to write, which he may pursue as a future career. “Right now I focus on non-fiction and like to analyze poems and write essays on books that I’ve read. I really loved a course that I took in school called Environmental Literature. There we read Emerson and Thoreau. I especially liked Emerson and he has really cool ideas that I’ve kept with me. I’m thinking of possibly a career as a travel writer. I realized it’s something that I could do that would also allow me to travel, which is something that I love. At the Community School we have senior projects and my hope is to travel to Ireland, which I’ve always wanted to see. I also love rainy places, which I know is odd. My proposal will be to write about what I see and to take photos. On December 7, I will submit my proposal and, of course, I hope it’s accepted.� In the meantime, this student, carrying a 3.81 grade point average, has his senior year ahead of him. Then it’s on to a very promising future. tws Each week, Jonathan Kane will be profiling a local high-school student. If you know someone you’d like to see featured, e-mail leslie@ theweeklysun.com

Sheldon says her work has taught her a lot of respect for ancient craftsmen. “You look at the old trompe l’oeils that have weathered the years. There’s a depth to them that can’t be compared,â€? she said. “They have an amazing attention to detail. The amount of time the artists put into them blows me away.â€? tws

tales. You’ll never think about Beauty and the Beast or Little Red Riding Hood in the same way after you’ve read Carter’s riveting The Tiger’s Bride and The Company of Wolves. Adults and older teens are welcome to join Ryan, who has taught this book at the Community School, for the discussion, which will be held at The Center, Ketchum. Cost is $10 for Sun Valley Center members, $15 nonmembers. Register/info: visit www.sunvalleycenter.org or call 726-9491, ext. 10.

Giving The Gift of Life Insurance BY KATHLEEN HARRISON, HARRISON INSURANCE

U

nless the laws change, as of January 1, 2013, there will be a reduction in the lifetime exemption for assets to $1 million. What that means is that after January 1, the transferring of assets, which are exempt from federal estate taxes, will be reduced from $5 million per person to $1 million per person. Planning ahead can be of critical importance if you have substantial assets. Remember that when married, each spouse will have the same lifetime exemption. Currently, an individual can gift up to $13,000 per year to any (and all) individuals they would like. This gift is not taxable to the recipient and does

not count against the lifetime exemption. If a married couple would like, they can gift up to $26,000 to any one individual, as each spouse has the $13,000 annual maximum per recipient. Many individuals choose to make annual gifts to their children and grandchildren in an effort to lessen their total assets and to keep future estate taxes to a minimum. If you are an individual who has been gifting on an annual basis, and would like to continue to gift to family members, and if you are concerned about the 35 percent minimum estate tax on assets over $1 million, you should consider an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust (ILIT). The sole purpose of this type of trust is to hold outside the estate a life insurance policy for the benefit of paying estate

taxes and final expenses when an individual passes away. With this type of trust, the premiums are typically gifted to the trust for each of the named beneficiaries (children, grandchildren, etc.) with the intent that the gift will be used to pay the premiums of the life insurance policy which is held in trust. The more beneficiaries there are, the more potential money would be available for premiums. Since the potential premium was gifted to the trust, and is under the direction of the beneficiaries of the trust, it is important to note that there is no guarantee that the recipients of the gift will use the money for the premiums. Although the insured can ask them to pay the premium, and it is certainly the wisest choice, there is no obligation to do so.

When a claim is made against the life insurance policy and the ILIT is the named beneficiary, the payment will go to the trust and be available to pay any estate taxes which are due. Since the ILIT is owned by the beneficiaries, it is money which is not associated with the estate and there will be no estate taxes due on the insurance benefit. It is possible that there will be more, or less, cash available in the trust than will be required for the taxes and other expenses associated with settling the estate. Presumably, the beneficiaries of the trust are now the owners of the deceased’s estate. As the estate is being settled, with final expenses and creditors being handled, the available cash from the life insurance policy will be in the trust to cover these final expenses as well as to pay the

taxes. When the estate has hard assets that may be difficult or time-consuming to sell, it is always preferred to have cash from a life insurance policy available for the taxes. Establishing an Irrevocable Life Insurance Trust to purchase a life insurance policy on the life of the grantor can save on future potential estate taxes, ensure that cash is available to pay any taxes, and keep real property from being sold in a hurry to raise cash. tws

Ask the Guys

Dear Classified Guys, The other day I saw an ad offering three pet turtles and a tank, free to a good home. I thought turtles would be fun for my kids. However, I didn't realize getting them would be so difficult. When I got there, I was faced with a huge interview. "Did I know how to take care of turtles?" "What was my experience?" "Was I willing to keep them for the 30+ years of their lives?" As if that wasn't bad enough, the demands then started on a paper contract. "I must keep their names." "I must allow visiting rights to their 3-year-old daughter when she gets older." "I must send yearly updates." Surely they were kidding since they were the ones giving away the turtles. Why would they make such demands? Who would take these turtles under those conditions? I sure didn't.

• • • Carry: When it comes to giving away pets, you can find all sorts of strange requests. Cash: Although discussing yearly updates and visitation rights makes it sound more like a divorce settlement than giving

Fast Facts Don't Touch

Duane “Cashâ€? Holze & Todd “Carryâ€? Holze 11/04/12 ŠThe Classified GuysÂŽ

away a pet! Carry: There could be any number of reasons the owners are so particular. Sometimes when forced to give away a pet, people suffer anxiety from the anticipated separation and hope requests such as these will help. Since the parents have a young daughter, they may also be trying to ease her transition with their guidelines. It may have been the daughter’s idea to request the new owners keep the names. Cash: Although the interview and contract do seem extreme in this case, it is always a good idea to be careful when giving away a pet. Too many times animals can be given to bad owners, or worse, to someone who plans on harming

them. Beloved pets have ended up neglected or used for medical testing. These owners may simply be trying to secure a safe future for their pets. Carry: Surprisingly, turtles do require more care than most people think. Although novel to own, they do need the proper combination of light, shade, heat and humidity to be kept healthy and safe. The size of the tank required for three turtles to grow would be a fairly large addition to any room. Cash: Now since you weren't comfortable with the conditions, it was a good idea to pass on the offer. After all, if you committed to the turtles for 30+ years, you would be bringing them to your daughter's wedding!

If you're considering getting a turtle, remember that small turtles do not make good pets for children. In fact, the US government banned the sale of turtles less than 4 inches in length in the 1970's. Before that time, red-eared slider turtles were inexpensive and readily available in most pet stores. However, many of these turtles suffered from neglect, often living in a bowl with no filtration system and no room to grow. Their small size also made them more likely to fit in a child's mouth and spread Salmonella infections.

Turtle Mania

Like many animals, turtles have been integrated into our children's lives through cartoons or children's stories. You can find many renditions of the tale The Tortoise and the Hare, including a popular version produced in 1941 by Looney Tunes, the creators of Bugs Bunny. In 1984, the comic book Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles spawned a whole new adventure for turtle characters. This popular series has been created into cartoons, movies, games and toys for more than twenty years. •

Reader Humor Getting Too Old

My best friends are about ten years older than my wife and I. As we all had kids and got older, we learned to take things easier than when we were younger. We recently got together to play cards and started talking about our kid's pets. I explained that we just got my son a pet rabbit. "He's been asking for one for months," I told them. "My son has been asking for a rabbit too," My older friend said. "But I opted to get him a turtle." When we looked at him perplexed, he explained, "At my age, I figure it’s easier to catch a turtle if it gets loose!"
