Inspiring A Love Of Books

YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT

STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

ne of Idaho’s most prolific and best-selling writers lives right here in Sun Valley. Bill Smallwood has published two dozen books, including “McClure of Idaho,” a book recounting the bombing of Guernica, and numerous military books, including “Warthog: Flying the A-10 in the Gulf War.” Now, the 83-year-old Smallwood has published his 25th: “Valor, Guts, and Luck,” the survival story of a B-17 tailgunner who was shot down and captured during World War II. Smallwood’s contribution goes beyond writing them, though. He’s on a mission to make sure today’s youngsters learn to love to read. He challenged 50 youngsters in Buhl to read this summer, with the assistance of representatives at the Buhl Public Library and the local Farmers Bank. And he’s paying them 15 cents a page for each book they complete. If you’re counting, that’s $155.55 for Margaret Mitchell’s “Gone with the Wind.” It’s $59.25 for Eric Maria Remarque’s “All Quiet on the Western Front,” $35.40 for Dale Carnegie’s “How to Win Friends and Influence People,” $92.55 for David McCullough’s “Path Between the Seas,” $42.60 for Harper Lee’s “To Kill a Mockingbird,” $72.60 for Stephen Ambrose’s “Undaunted Courage” and $42.45 for Timothy Egan’s “The Big Burn.” Ernest Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea” is a relative lightweight, paying just $20. Some of the books on the list come straight out of the Sun Valley Writers’ Conference, including Timothy Egan’s “The Worst Hard Time” and Frank McCourt’s “Angela’s Ashes.” Smallwood has a list of 30 books the youngsters can read, with another 10 to be added as soon as he rereads them, including “The Virginian,” “Travels with Charley” and “The Grapes of Wrath.” Smallwood patterned his endeavor after an incentive he gave his eldest son, now a software engineer. “When he was going into fifth grade, he said, ‘Dad, the other kids are getting allowances. Why don’t you give me one?’ I made a list of 10 books and told him I’d give him 5 cents a page, and he jumped at it. It hooked him on reading,” Smallwood recounted. “I did it with my other son and he made enough to buy an IBM PC.” Smallwood—a former teacher—says he chose Buhl for his experiment because he used to

THE READING LIST

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 live there. Fifty percent of the youngsters live in single-parent homes, their parents working long hours at nearby trout farms or other farms. Before forking over the reward, Smallwood grills each youngster about each book to make sure they’ve read it. If it proves a success, Smallwood would like to expand to Filer and Jerome—“even here if I can find someone to help finance it,” he said, adding that he did enlist one local youngster—golf pro Tyler Petersen’s son—in the endeavor. “If I can get five kids hooked on reading, it will be worth it,” he said.

Smallwood’s own book, “Valor, Guts, and Luck,” is on the list— it’ll net an industrious young reader $26.40. And Smallwood banks that it will also provide a youngster with exciting reading. It recounts the story of a Fargo, N.D., kid—Staff Sgt. Lowell “Slats” Slayton—who was hit by a rocket on his unlucky thirteenth mission over Germany. Though wounded, he survived the crash. He was imprisoned in two POW camps before enduring a 300-plus-mile trek from Poland to Germany during one of the coldest winters on record. Smallwood learned of Slayton through a chance encounter with

Slayton’s daughter at a dinner party. He found Slayton—a retired banker—living in a small Wyoming town. He interviewed him an hour a day six days a week for four months by telephone. Realizing that Slayton might have repressed some of his memories, Smallwood sometimes read him other prisoners’ accounts to see if they triggered anything. Slayton recalled trading one woman soap for eggs. Within five minutes he’d eaten all six eggs, cracking them on his head, eating them raw and throwing the shells on the ground. He stayed in barns every night during the march, his body crawling with lice. He received no water during the day. “It was brutal but he survived. He said, ‘I just made up my mind,’” Smallwood said. “That’s why I want kids to read it—to appreciate what humans are capable of doing.” tws

“Slats” Slayton died just before his 90th birthday, soon after having read the manuscript for “Valor, Guts, and Luck.” Bill Smallwood says he is proud of preserving Slayton’s story. “It would have evaporated. It wouldn’t have been around, otherwise,” he says.

What else is on Bill Smallwood’s reading list? Here are a few more titles: “A Fortunate Life” by A.B.

Why are you involved with The Advocates? I’m involved with The Advocates because my parents, as loving and caring as they are, have always stressed the importance of helping others. I began babysitting at the women’s shelter two years ago when I was 16, and when I was approached with this youth activist opportunity, I saw it as yet another chance to spread a positive influence as a leader and as someone that those younger than me look up to. I very much enjoy spreading awareness and advocating for healthy relationships with the ETCs (Every Teen has a Choice).

What are some problems youth face in our Valley? From what I’ve experienced personally, it is extremely apparent that many of the youth in our Valley get the vast majority of their knowledge of relationships from the movies, and many from poor examples at home. Domestic abuse is very present in our Valley, so not only having The Advocates as support, but also a

group of teens who are trying to educate and help, can begin to mend the image of relationships to one of safety and happiness.

What can youth do to change this? Just by providing a healthy example of relationships, it can make all the difference for some struggling children. As role models to those younger than us, we give them an idea of what they hope to see in their own future (or current) relationships.

What would you like to see adults do? I would like to see adults make an effort to get their own children to develop healthy ideas about relationships, and even get their kids involved in programs that advocate for healthy relationships. I would likewise like to see public education go toward efforts to support individuals and teach others of the importance of a safe and healthy lifestyle.

“Having all that exposure at a young age really helped and I’m pretty comfortable on stage. Music is my passion and whether or not I pursue it as a career, it will always be a part of my life.” We played at The Wicked Spud, Ketch’em Alive, and a battle of the bands in Boise and opened for Dave Mason at River Run. In Boise we were competing against a lot of older bands with albums but the crowd loved us and we signed autographs and felt like real rock stars. Dave Mason was the biggest crowd we played to and we got to meet him before the show and we knew that he was in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which was pretty cool.” When Kotara plays today, nerves don’t seem to be a problem. “Having all that exposure at a young age really helped and I’m pretty comfortable on stage.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Alex Harten, featured in The Weekly Sun’s Student Spotlight, on July 23, has requested the following clarification to her article: “Thank you for my Student Spotlight article. The interview was fun, but I need to correct some things, because I don’t want the Community and US Figure Skating to think that I would overstate my skating accomplishments. I am the 2013 US Figure Skating National Showcase Champion in Light Entertainment at the Novice Ladies level. I have never competed at the US Championships or the World Championships, and I am not on an Olympic track, so it is inaccurate to call me a ‘world class skater.’ Thank you!”

hampe Kotara, a Wood River High School senior carrying a 3.5 grade point average, loves to rock out. And it’s something that he has been doing since he picked up a guitar at the age of 7. Born in the Wood River Valley, Kotara has lived in Hailey his whole life and currently resides in Deerfield. Before attending Wood River High, he attended Bellevue Elementary, Hailey Elementary and Wood River Middle School. “It’s been really awesome growing up here,” Kotara said. “The summers are really incredible. I have a lot of really great friends and there is so much offered to kids growing up here. Of course, the geography is really special with the rivers, mountains and the ability to hike, bike and ski. The programs for kids are really special, too. The Music ’n‘ Me program got me involved with music at a really young age and then got me in a band at age 9.” Kotara describes his favorite thing to do in the Valley. “I like going to the lakes, especially Redfish. We jet ski a lot and friends have boats and we just go and hang out. During the school year I’m pretty busy, but we get creative to keep ourselves having fun. It’s been really nice growing up in a small town and I don’t see any downside to it. It’s good knowing everyone, like when you are walking around, and I have such strong connections to everyone I’ve known my whole life.” Kotara started rocking out on the guitar when he was 7, when his grandfather, who was a music producer in Nashville, got him started. “My whole family was from Texas and was living in Houston when one day my father said we were moving to Ketchum, and we stayed. My grandfather bought me a Johnson blue electric guitar for $100. My first song was Smoke On The Water and I had about 10 different teachers growing up. At around the age of 9 or 10 I really started to like it. I just started to get better and I loved music. I remember that I used to watch videos on MTV, and to be able to play rather

than just listen was really cool. Pretty much I was into classic rock—Ozzie Osbourne, Guns and Roses, Nirvana, and songs like Crazy Train, Sweet Child of Mine and Mississippi Queen. Then I joined with friends and we started a band when we were about 9 years old called Disciples of Rock and we played all over and were pretty popular. We stayed together until I was 14.

Conclusion Of The 101st Tour De France

the weekly

BY BALI SZABO Stage 17, Pla d’Adet and the Pyrenees. Since 1974, this was the 10th time the Tour made its visit to this stretch of the Pyrenees. Four climbs, each harder than the last, were designed to separate the men from the boys once and for all, and make everyone earn their special category points. A lot of lead riders had something at stake. Valverde had to catch leader Nibali and protect his second-place overall. Pinot had a shot at him and the Best Young Rider title against countryman Bardet. Tejay Van Garderen of the U.S. had a chance to move up. The King of the Mountains (points are awarded for every 1 through 10 mountain top finish) was still up for grabs. Vincenzo Nibali was the likely winner of the Tour, but things can happen. Riding alone, and his team car several minutes behind him, he rounded a sharp corner, his front wheel grazed a shoulder of pavement, and he almost lost it. He could have lost the race with it. He survived and attacked the last climb. He overtook a group ahead of him and closed on the two remaining riders, the leader Majka and G. Visconti. He fell short, but still padded his overall lead. Stage 18. Pau to Hautacam. This stage was marked by the last two climbs of the Tour, on the slopes of the Hautacam. After a flat and fast start, the legendary Col du Tourmalet loomed—10-plus miles (17 km) with a 7 to 10 percent gradient. The peloton stayed together and didn’t bother with a challenge of the two lead riders. The descent was long and steep. Valverde made a break for it to put some distance between him and his challengers. He felt the contending French riders would harass him if he stayed with them. His 10-second gain was insufficient; he cracked, fell out of second place, and was overtaken by Thibaut Pinot. This time the peloton mounted a chase. Within 1 minute of the leaders, once again Nibaldi made his move and went after the lone leader, Mikel Nieve, who desperately wanted to win this stage for Spain. He accelerated past him on an 11 percent grade, won his fourth stage and widened his overall lead to 7 ½ minutes. Stage 20, July 26, Bergerac to Perigaux. This was the last race of the Tour before the Paris finish—a 34-mile individual time trial. There were two races. The time trial specialists like world champion Toni Martin, Dutch champion Dumoulin and the others wanted to do well, and they did. The aforementioned finished 1-2. Martin posted a blistering time of 1:06:21, 1:39 better than anyone else. The other race was for the podium in Paris. Only 13 seconds separated second, third and fourth places. Valverde could regain second place, but on this day he just didn’t have it and barely hung on against the charging Tejay Van Garderen, who overtook Bardet for fifth. For the first time in 17 years, the French had a shot at the podium. What of Nibali, who had a big lead and didn’t have to bust his hump? Remarkably, he went for the win here. He finished in fourth, but he did better than any of his competitors in the overall standing, padded his lead and showed he was the true deserving champion. Sunday’s La Course ride concludes with a 55-mile, 13-lap race around the Champs-Elysee. What’s important is that for the first time in 16 years, women will race this course. Like their sister ski-jumpers in Sochi, they’ve lobbied hard for their own Tour. Bon chance.

Movie Review

‘Jersey Boys’ Wrong Exit JON RATED THIS MOVIE BY JONATHAN KANE

ow bad is truly bad? Look no further than the painful new mess of a movie, Jersey Boys, that retells the rise and fall of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. The most shocking fact is that it is the new movie from 84-year-old director Clint Eastwood. We can only pray that its not his last film because no one wants to be remembered for the worst movie of his or her career. Based on the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, which I am so thankful I didn’t have to see, as well, Jersey Boys is your classic rise-and-fall showbiz tale. The first half is all about the promise, and the second half, the tragedy, although in this case the fall is portrayed in such a sugary-sweet, maudlin scenario that it literally leaves the viewer sick to the stomach. And there is a lot to help you along to the sick bag. First in line are the actors playing the Four Seasons, all of whom were found in the play’s road shows. The worst, of course, is John Lloyd Young as Valli. Never in the history of cinema has an actor so lacking in charisma and star power been asked to carry an almost two-and-a-half-hour movie. I guess the guy can sing, but watching him for the painful duration is too much to ask. Christopher Walken shows up as the mob boss that oversees the young Valli’s career, but even he can’t help, raving about Frankie’s voice as though he were asking for more cowbell. The other three Seasons are played badly, with much worse hairpieces, by Vincent Piazza, Michael Lomenda and Erich Bergen. The climax comes laughably at the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony with some of the worst makeup ever seen on the screen. For Eastwood, this is a true embarrassment. Let’s hope he has the chance to rectify the picture. tws

Evidence shows that local produce has a higher nutritional value and more flavor than produce that has been transported long distances. Fruits and vegetables lose their optimal nutritional value as soon as they are picked. When picked, vitamins such as C, E, A and some B begin to deteriorate. Manufacturers use plant hormone spray to speed up ripening Locally grown zucchini. Courtesy photo because produce that will travel a long way is often picked before it is ripe.

The agricultural tools used for speed and growth, selective breeding and synthetic fertilizers likely alter the ability of the produce to absorb or synthesize nutrients from the soil. Another study by Dr. Alyson Mitchel at UC Davis found that organic produce builds up higher levels of phytonutrients compared to conventional. This increase in nutrients is due to the organic plants’ accumulated response to growing in a more stressful environment than conventional plants (i.e., lower soil fertility, weed competition and pest damage).

he sagebrush mariposa lily is closely related to the sego lily, also known as the white mariposa lily or star tulip. The tulip-shaped flower is like many of Sun Valley’s second-home owners, generally showing up in late June or early July and staying for the rest of the summer, enjoying the best of what summer has to offer. The flower can be seen along most Wood River Valley trails and north of Ketchum, as well. It’s far less common than the white mariposa lily but oh so dainty when you do find it. The white mariposa lily, by contrast, features three white petals easily as large as a quarter with a deep purple splotch on each. Occasionally, the petals

The highly nutritious bulbs were an important foodstuff for Native Americans and pioneers, who dug them in spring before the plants flowered.

I decided on the name “Myles” so that my friends and family would stop bothering me about exercising. Now I can say, “Are you kiddin’ me?

for the hummingbirds and one for all the rest. Myles gave up any thought of chasing them when he realized he couldn’t outmaneuver them or match their speed and agility. Now she just stares along with me at their wonderful flying prowess. If I could fly like them, I could accomplish all my daily activities. Shopping, banking, laundering, washing dishes, vacuuming, dusting – oh, who am I kidding? I still would like to roar through the outdoor banking facilities just to see the look on the faces of the tellers. I haven’t learned the names of the different species but I recognize them in my own way by naming them for myself. There’s the Galena Peaks, the Road Ragers, the Sun Valley Trust Funders, the Bill Collectors,

One thing that they can’t do is they can’t sell ads for the Blatant County News each month. Well, neither can I but I do have a 13 percent closing rate. Let’s see them match that! So, either I learn to fly or I’m just going to have to ask you business owners out there to call me for an ad. I’ll be on the back deck if you need me.

he 2007 Castle Rock Fire that threatened Baldy also lit a fire under Forest Service officials and the Sun Valley Company to take a closer look at forest management. To slow a fire, it has to be denied fuel. Those include the live and dead underbrush ladder fuels that can ignite the entire tree and create hot crown fires. The other is the accumulation of dead trees killed by parasitic mistletoe (not the kissing kind) and the Douglas fir beetle. The hue and cry had arisen: ‘Why don’t they do something?’ They are trying. For the next three to five years, the U.S. Forest Service, Ketchum Ranger District and Sun Valley Company have entered into a jointly funded partnership to treat 182 acres of timbered stands within the Bald Mountain Special Use Permit. (In total, Bald Mountain ski area covers 3,332 acres). This remediation effort required the right approach. Hand crews proved too slow, somewhat dangerous and expensive. Traditional logging methods couldn’t work in the steep terrain of Frenchman’s Gulch. Last year, one bid for the work came in at $12,000/

All About Yellow Rock Art Toadflax BY THE BLAINE BUG CREW

fter Blaine County’s short break, we are back on track with monitoring our sites. We are retiring and gaining new sites every day. A bothersome noxious weed is Linaria volgarius, also known as yellow toadflax. In this article we are going to inform you about yellow toadflax so that if you come across a big patch of it. you can give us a call. Yellow toadflax is a shortlived perennial that reproduces by seed and vegetative growth. Mature plants typically grow up to about .6 meter tall, leaves are usually about 5.5 cm long, narrow, pointed at both ends, pale green, and individually connected to the central stem. Flowers are 2.5 cm long, yellow, and similar in shape to a snapdragon. Plants flower from midsummer to fall. Each fruit is approximately 5 mm in diameter containing flattened seedwhich are about 1 mm in diameter. A single plant can produce up to 35,000 seeds in a season, which may remain viable in the soil for up to 10 years. It is usually associated with moist, coarse soil along roadsides and pastures. It is found in most counties in Idaho. This invasive plant and other Linaria species are reportedly toxic to livestock. Yellow toadflax, as bad as it sounds, can be defeated by a biological control agent, a stem-mining weevil known as mecinus janthinus (MEJA). Adult MEJA are small and bluish-black. They have strips on their abdomen. Adult MEJA feed

on toadflax stems that are at least 1 cm in diameter and feed on leaves and stems from June to mid-July before mating and laying eggs inside new shoots. The eggs typically hatch in 6-7 days. Larvae tunnel within the toadflax stem from 23 to 34 days, moving no more than 3 cm from where the eggs were laid. Pupation occurs within the stem. Adult feeding on stems and leaves has a limited impact on the plant. Larval mining impacts the plant by causing premature wilting of shoots and suppressing flower formation. MEJA overwinter as adults inside their pupation chamber. The effects of the weevil on the plant are reportedly enhanced under drought stress. As an overview, you need to realize that a critical part of successful biological weed control programs is a monitoring process to measure populations of biological control agents and the target weed. Monitoring should be conducted on an annual basis for a number of years. The Idaho Department of Agriculture, in conjunction with the University of Idaho, Nez Perce Biocontrol Center and federal land management agencies, has developed the standard impact monitoring protocol (SIMP) to enable land managers to take a more active role in monitoring the process

and weed control ability of the toadflax stem-mining weevil. Mecinus Janthinos (MEJA) in efforts to control yellow toadflax, linaria volgarius. This monitoring protocol was designed to be implemented by land managers in a timely manner to provide pre-release monitoring data which will enable land managers and researchers to accurately quantify the impact of MEJA once it is released on yellow toadflax. If you encounter any yellow toadflax please call the Blaine County noxious weed department at 788-5516 and ask for Bronwyn Nickel. If the site is free from farming, grazing, spraying, and other human disturbance, the Blaine County Bug Crew may be able to establish a biological control site. Give us a call if you find any yellow toadflax. Thank you!

ometimes when you are fishing it is just HOT out. It can get so hot you feel like only fishing under the trees. It gets so hot you can feel the fish are not going to move. You get the sense that nothing will move until things cool off. This is where we are at now, stuck in summer’s heat. Now is the time to triple your efforts to get up and get moving in the morning! This is a time of insects and fish activity. You can find rising fish on almost all our area waters in the early morning hours right now. Obviously, the evening holds the same promise, although you may miss out on the cool pockets of air you will feel in the early morning. Early morning is also nice if you want to see more of Idaho’s natural world. Moose, deer, skunks, badgers, birds and more are all out and about getting a last mouthful of water before they go and hunker down in the shade for the day. If you must, or decide to fish in the afternoons, think about fishing nymphs and streamers deeper than normal. Add some extra length to your dropper flies and fish streamers on long leaders. Fish the deep holes, the shady pockets under the grass, the shady spots tight up against log jams. Fish flies like buggers and prince nymphs and be ready for the lightest takes that are hard to perceive outside of a little tick in the line that you feel. If you are able to get out in the evening hours, have your spinner patterns ready. Fish slow and look for subtle risers in the tailouts of the pools. If you find them, fishing the down-winged spinner pattern will assure the fish that the fly they are about to eat is dead and not flying away before they get to the surface. This is simple calorie exchange—having the fish realize that its calories in effort won’t be wasted on lack of reward. Fish love to eat dead bugs for this reason alone. They are assured to get more calories than they have to expend. Moving slow in the morning and evening will pay off in piscatorial rewards. Take your time and really look hard at all the flat water; chances are you can find some big fish working these areas. If you do, get out your best patterns and your 6X. Enjoy the challenge of the hot weather and treat the fish well! Happy fishing everyone!

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 9 ing so much about the animals. Some of the things I come up with are good cocktail conversation fodder. Did you know, for instance, that elk eat knapweed? Or, that the moose digs a hole in the ground, pees in it, then swishes its bell—the hair hanging under its chin—around in it before it goes looking for a mate?” Holley has done a few non-animate objects. Among them, Bald Mountain composed of wildflowers and ski trails. She created a portrait of a woman playing a piano using wildflowers of the area. And, as an owner of a purple 1935 Morgan convertible, she painted a Morgan car at the request of the Morgan Car Club. The painting included tires made of a rubber tree plant, a galloping horse for the engine, cow

seats, a dinosaur for a gas tank and, a frame out of a white ash. The detail and the faithfulness with which Holley tries to reproduce subjects means that each picture takes one to two months to do. “Sometimes I wish I had come up with a series that would have been a little less time consuming,” she said. “But it seems that no one else is doing anything of this sort. And, this series has done very well for me.” Holley said she is looking forward to being in this weekend’s show, which runs Friday through Sunday on 4th Street in Ketchum. “I’m flattered to be included among so many quality local and international artists,” she said. tws

Artists Invitational Lisa Holley will be among 30 national and local artists who will be featured in the Artists Invitational Show Friday through Sunday. The artists, who include jewelers, photographers, sculptors and mixed-media artists, will be on Fourth Street between Atkinsons’ Market and The Community Library. All of the artists have agreed to give up 10 percent of their sales for Swiftsure Ranch Therapeutic Equestrian Center south of Bellevue.

Writers’ Conference Thrives In July BY KAREN BOSSICK

Organizers moved the Sun Valley Writers’ Conference to July this year after they were forced to cancel last year’s conference because of the Beaver Creek Fire, which threatened Hailey and Ketchum before it was put out. It will return next year in July again—July 17 through 20, to be specific—said conference director Robin Eidsmo. Humorist Dave Barry ended the conference with a flurry of getting-old jokes: “I just turned 57. It sucks. We need to find another way for medical professionals to get to the prostate gland than the way they do now,” he said. Conference attendees lauded this conference, saying the speakers seem to be getting better year after year. “I think all the speakers were outstanding, especially Congressman John Lewis,” said Richard Berry, a Glendale, Calif., man who has attended several writers’ conferences. “I remember taking part in a basketball tournament in North Carolina in 1956 as a student at Northwestern University and I remember how the white players were applauded and the black players booed and how we couldn’t stay in the hotel we were supposed to stay in because of the black players on our team. It changed my life and the way I see others ever since.” Thomas Cahill, author of a dozen books including “How the Irish Saved Civilization,” agreed. “Hearing John Lewis speak was one of the great experiences of my life. I went up to him afterwards and said, ‘John, do you realize every person in that room wants to hug you now?’ ” Richard Epstein, author of The New York Times bestseller “The Sports Gene,” is more used to attending baseball All-Star games. But the conference left him awed. “It was amazing,” he said. “I feel like I had a backstage seat to the All-Star game of writers these past few days.” tws

John Lewis was spit on and hit with a wooden crate during his fight for civil rights. Last week at the Sun Valley Pavilion, the 74-year-old Congressman only had to endure three standing ovations from 1,500 admiring white faces at the Sun Valley Writers’ Conference. Lewis, the son of an Alabama sharecropper, recounted his early years administering first-aid for chickens on the 110 acres that his family still owns. He began preaching to those chickens when he was 8. “I’m convinced some of those chickens listened to me better than some of my colleagues in Congress,” he quipped, a stern look on his shiny brown bulldog-like face. The turning point came when he asked his father why he had to use a different bathroom than white folks. “He said, ‘That’s the way it is. Don’t get in trouble,’ ” Lewis recalled. But as young Lewis watched the Montgomery Bus Boycott unfold, he felt Martin Luther King saying, “John Robert Lewis, you can do something.” “And the actions of Rosa Parks inspired me to get into trouble. Good trouble. Necessary trouble,” he said. At 16, he recounted, he and his brothers and sisters tried to get library cards and were told by the librarian that the library was for whites only. The next time he went back to that library, Lewis said, was to autograph copies of his book, “March,” a graphic retelling of his version of the Civil Rights Movement. “When people tell me nothing has changed, I say, ‘Come walk in my footsteps.’” Lewis took non-violent workshops every Tuesday night during college. And he participated in sit-ins at lunch counters where white onlookers poured hot water and coffee on him. “One time I heard we were going to be arrested so I went to the used clothing store and bought a suit for $5 because I wanted to look good when I was arrested. My photograph ended up in the paper and I tell you, I looked sharp,” he said. “I got in trouble, but I felt free. I felt liberated,” added Lewis, who was arrested for non-violent protests 40 times in the ensuing six years as he participated on The Freedom Ride and other demonstrations. Next year will be the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Voting Rights Act, which prohibits racial discrimination in voting, Lewis noted. “If someone had told me in 1965 that one day I’d be in Congress, elected by the people of Georgia, or that there’d be a black president of America—never ever give up. Never ever give in. Be hopeful. Be optimistic. Keep the faith and keep your eyes on the prize.” Fielding questions from the crowd, Lewis said he hopes President Obama will continue to be involved in ”teaching our children and making our country a better place” after he leaves office. “I hope he keeps telling his story—he’s got a great story to tell,” he added. Lewis also encouraged the audience to vote: “It’s the most powerful tool we can use.” tws

his weekend Loretta, my wife, and I visited an Apple Store to buy her a computer, and find some technical advice for yours truly. Specifically, I was looking for a way to unmask those pesky passwords represented by dots. I’m sure that many of you have a forgotten password or two that now show up on your computer or iPad as a string of dots. Loretta got her computer but I struck out. Apple, in its quest to protect the privacy of device owners, encrypts passwords such that the common person cannot hack them, once entombed on the computer. This gave me cause to ponder: How would anyone access my digital world when I’m no longer upright? I have tried to eliminate paper in my life; bank statements, brokerage statements, bills, etc., are delivered electronically. I pay most bills automatically from bank accounts. My iTunes and eBook collections are protected by a string of dots. So are my email, Pay Pal and Amazon accounts, as well as a very large deposit of Frequent Flyer miles. Digging into this problem I learned that three Facebook users die every minute. What

happens to their accounts and Web presence? All of these issues point to a whole new facet of estate planning: How to plan for a digital estate. Ten years ago no one would have given this a thought. Putting provisions outlining how to dispose of digital assets and appointing a digital executor would have seemed absurd. But research by McAfee found that some individuals estimated the value of their digital assets at $55,000 or more. Certain Web sites have developed tools for dealing with the problem. Facebook, for instance, will, with proof of death, host a memorial for friends and family only. Google does not guarantee they will grant access to a deceased user account. They recommend sending a death certificate, a government-issued ID, full name, gmail address and a physical mailing address. Yahoo will not allow next-ofkin access to an email account unless the deceased account owner specifically stated otherwise in his/her will. Fortunately, there are estate-planning steps you can take to plan for your digital assets. First, assess what you have collected. Then, identify where it is located. Next, decide what you want to have happen to these

assets upon your death. Estate planning attorneys who specialize in digital estate work say your emails are most important since they can provide valuable clues to your online presence. Document how to access your various accounts with user ID and password. DO NOT put his information in your will. Wills are public documents and you do not want this information public! A number of companies are now providing “cloud” storage for digital estate management. Companies like Datainherit, Legacy Locker and SafeSecure are useful.

After researching for this column, I found that I do not have to worry about my iTunes collection. I learned that even though I had paid for every song, I did not own them; I only have the right to access them as long as I live. My kids don’t have to worry about getting my music; they don’t think much of my tastes anyway!

Jewish Community Toasts New Leader STORY & PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

orty-eight ladies toasted the wife of the community’s new rabbi with gazpacho and quiche last week. The women gathered for a picnic welcoming Julie Mirel in the lovely Hulen Meadows gar-

den of Robin Leavitt and Terry Friedlander. Leavitt described how Julie’s husband—Rabbi Jim Mirel—had married her and her husband, who wore a Hawaiian print shirt and Bermuda shorts—in a small wedding observed by a brother, sister “and, of course, a dog.” Julie Mirel served as cantor and the two couples have had a tight bond in the decades since. Mirel, a classically trained opera singer, did not share the talents that also led her to be a cantorial soloist at Temple Beth El of Tacoma, Wash., during the picnic. “I don’t give sermons, except to my kids,” she said. “But I am delighted to be here and reconnect with Robin and Terry. Forty years ago I would have remembered all your names and all your faces. You’ll have to bear

with me now.” Rabbi Jim Mirel, rabbi emeritus of Temple B’nai Torah in Bellevue, Wash., joined the congregation as its spiritual leader a couple of weeks ago. He will spend much of the summer and winter months with the congregation, in addition to making periodic visits during slack season. He also will conduct High Holy Days services,

Passover, Hanukkah and other communal events. He gathered grandparents and grandchildren together Thursday in the park to discuss “What Makes Someone a Jew?” He is also conducting studies at 10 a.m. Saturdays at the Wood River Jewish Center on Leadville Avenue across from Atkinsons’ Market. The studies are open to the public. In other news, Buzz Coe and Lenny Cohen have been selected as co-presidents of the community, replacing Juli Roos and Enid Rawlings. Joanne Mercer is vice president; Neil Siegel, treasurer; and Mark Levin, secretary. New board members are Steve Dorinson, Ellen Fastow, Eileen Prager, Ivy Slike, Naomi Sloan, Susan Green, Enid Rawlings, Juli Roos, Carlyn Ring and Jennifer Stern. tws

Rudi Broschofsky shows off his large-scale piece that was inspired in part by the Western art in his family’s art gallery in Ketchum.

STORY AND PHOTO BY KAREN BOSSICK

udi Broschofsky grew up in his parents’ art gallery. While other youngsters were playing with toy cars, he was coloring with crayons. So, when Broschofsky was asked to be part of Ochi Gallery’s “Death to Day Jobs” exhibition, which spotlights young artists, he supplied a 54-by-34-inch piece that featured portraits of Gen. George Armstrong Custer and Chief Joseph that had been taken by 1800’s photographer Edward Curtis. He arranged the portraits in sequence mounted on quarter-inch plywood, did a little photo shop, spray-painted the work with a variety of greens, blues and reds, and finished it off with epoxy resin for a beautiful finish He then stenciled diagonal lines with black spray to get the effect he wanted. One single stencil took him between 20 and 50 hours to cut. “I like the different colors, backgrounds,” he said. Broschofsky studied business and finance at the University of Santa Barbara and took art courses in San Diego. That’s where he got the inspiration for his contemporary work involving a surfer, which complements another slightly abstract picture of a dirt biker. Broschofsky has worked at Broschofky Galleries, in addition to pursuing his own work, for nine years. tws

Know Your Eggs Al & Stephanie McCord 308 South River Street Hailey, ID 83333 208-721-3114 www.wrsustainabilitycenter.com wrsustainabilitycenter@gmail.

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.” - Hippocrates

his week, we want to talk with you about getting to know your eggs. We hear all of these different names for the types of eggs there are to eat. So, what do they mean? Pasture-raised, organic The ultimate in quality, taste and animal welfare. These hens are raised outdoors with plenty of room to perch, forage and act like birds. They are frequently moved on to fresh grass and their feed is USDA Certified Organic. The birds’ lifestyle and varied diet make these eggs superior in flavor, texture and nutritional content. Pasture-raised, non-organic These hens are raised outdoors with plenty of room to

perch, forage and act like birds. They are frequently moved on to fresh grass and their feed is high-quality, vegetarian and non-organic. The bird’s lifestyle makes these eggs superior in flavor. Organic These hens are, for the most part, raised indoors, but given access to the outdoors (though that does not always happen). They eat only USDA Certified Organic feed. While they have limited space, they are not caged and eat a quality feed that is free from pesticides and herbicides. Cage-free or free-range These birds are raised in open barns with roosting areas, but the birds are not caged. They may see little natural light, breathe fresh air or experience natural behaviors in outdoor pasture. Their feed may be non-organic. Read the label to identify which practices each farm uses, since standards vary greatly. Watch for the misleading label “access to pasture.” That may mean there is an opening of some size to the outdoors, but warehouse birds may not learn how to use this door and thus may not actually enter the pasture or eat grass, seeds and bugs outside. Caged Caged birds are jammed into a cage with up to eight other birds, unable to stand up or turn around their entire life. They eat low-quality feed from a conveyor, lay eggs onto a conveyor and even poop onto a conveyor. Caged eggs are now illegal in the EU and the state of California has increased the number of square inches each bird must have within the cage. This is the source of most cheap supermarket eggs. It is through knowledge that we can make informed decisions that impact the local community and our own health. We only carry farm fresh, pastured eggs at the WRSC.

Bugatti Hits 246 Mph On 75 PHOTOS BY BRENNAN REGO

A Bugatti Veyron’s license plate surround reads “ZR-1 For Lunch, Ferrari For Dinner.” A ZR-1 is a model of Chevrolet Corvette. Another Bugatti, a Veyron Super Sport Pur Blanc, reached 246.4 mph during the Sun Valley Road Rally on Saturday, shattering last year’s record of 230.6 mph (also set by a Bugatti Veyron). A total of six Bugatti’s participated in the Road Rally this year, which took place on Highway 75, North of Ketchum. A Nissan GT-R hit 237 mph just before the Pur Blanc embarked on its winning run.

Kindler’s ‘Contemplative’ Studio STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

udith Kindler’s new studio in Ketchum’s light indus-

trial area could well be mistaken for a gallery. A 69-by59-inch portrait of a young girl’s face titled “Obscured” hangs on the wall amidst other photography-based mixed-media works the nationally renowned artist has created. Hand-sculpted ceramics sit beneath a picture entitled “Tequila Made Me Do It,” which includes a photograph of a doll-like woman next to a piece of an actual wedding dress. A tiny elephant and birds sit in cages on what looks like the kitchen table. Packages that the artist created sit on another table. But the cages, packages and other found objects demonstrate that this is a working studio— symbols that Kindler uses in her new place of work away from work. Kindler celebrated her new Ketchum studio with an open house for clients and fellow artists earlier this month. She also previewed some of her newest work from the series “The View” and “Literary Works” at the same time in a unique behind-

the-scenes event co-sponsored by Gail Severn Gallery. Kindler and her husband, attorney Kyle Johnson, have been coming to Sun Valley since she

Those who attended the open house said that getting a glimpse of the way Kindler works helped them better appreciate her art. Gail

ments of painting, photography and technology to create things you can’t create with just one of those mediums.”

began displaying her work in galleries here 15 years ago. They have gradually been spending more and more time here, but to do that, she needed a place to work. Johnson urged his wife to open a studio in the industrial district after Kindler shared a space there with Suzanne Hazlett during last fall’s Wood River Valley Studio Tour. Hazlett is a co-founder of the Studio Tour. Kindler called her 1,500-square-foot studio in Ketchum a miniature of her 5,000-square-foot studio in Seattle. “I wanted this area to inform my work,” she said. “When you live in an urban environment, everything is more progressive. Here, everything is more contemplative.”

Severn, who has featured Kindler in her Ketchum gallery for the past six years, relished showing people around the works of art. “This is a great example of an artist who decided she loved the arts community here and wanted to spend more time here,” she said. “The open house gives us a better chance to see how someone has combined the ele-

Severn pointed to “Obscure.” Careful not to reveal Kindler’s trade secrets, she explained how Kindler had taken a photograph of a young child, blown it up and put it on a leather surface, painted it, applied different materials over the surface and then manipulated it. Local artist Mary Williams— who is helping with this year’s Wood River Valley Studio Tour,

which will take place in September—surveyed a table where cheeses chockfull of fruits and tomato slices topped with savories sat next to Kindler’s many brushes. “Even the food she created for tonight is like a piece of art,” Williams marveled. Others marveled at Kindler’s tools of the trade, which included a 5-foot printer. It pales next to her printer in Seattle, which is twice as big, noted Hazlett. “I love the three-dimensional things she adds to some of her paintings,” said Hazlett, who took a class from Kindler at Pratt Fine Arts Institute in 2007. “Look at this,” she said, pointing to “The Measurement of Joy,” which features two women holding scales. “She even has used licorice encased in resin embedded as weights on the three-dimensional scale in the middle.” tws

Ride Provides Wigs For Cancer Patients

he temperature eclipsed the mileage—and that was no small matter. Local bicyclists and Vamps Nordic skiers Susan Usher, a former Alaskan school principal, and Carol Stevens rode the Goldilocks Boise Century Ride recently in 102-degree heat. “It was hot,” acknowledged Stevens, a former interior designer. “I poured water on my hair and body at each aid station. And, of course, it doesn’t feel so hot when you’re riding on a bike.” The two joined more than 500 other women in a loop through

Meridian, around Lake Lowell in Nampa and back through a different part of Meridian. The women-only ride raised money for organizations that provide real hair wigs to women being treated for cancer. Stevens and a handful of other local cyclists rode a similar Goldilocks ride in Salt Lake City in May with a thousand other women. You don’t realize so many women are participating, Stevens said, because they’re riding different loops. “This one had rides of 20, 50, 80 and 100 miles so, really, anyone could do it,” she said. “It’s just a fun, fun ride. And it’s not competitive.” tws

BRIEFS

nexStage To Host Free Play Reading

The nexStage Theatre in Ketchum will present a play reading of “The Cripple of Inishmaan” by Martin McDonagh on Wednesday, July 30, at 7 p.m. Admission is free. Complimentary wine and cookies will be served. “The outrageously dark and hilarious comedy will run two hours with a short intermission,” states a recent news release from nexStage. The cast features Freddie Harris, Kathy Wygle, Patsy Wygle, Charlotte Hemmings, Will Hemmings, Scott Creighton, Keith Moore, Steve D’Smith and Ben Flandro. The reading will be directed by Jon Kane. The play is currently enjoying a sold out revival on Broadway, the release states, adding that the New York Times writes that “McDonagh is exuberantly nervy and talented.”

Pink Floyd Will ‘Echo’ Through Valley

A local group of musicians led by John Valenzuela will perform “Echoes: A Pink Floyd Tribute” during several shows this summer. Tonight, the group—which also includes Chip Booth, Mike Saul, Troy Tadlock, Sean Jackson and Jim Paisley—will perform the set at the Wicked Spud in Hailey at 6 p.m. The group will also perform the tribute at Mahoney’s Bar & Grill in Bellevue on August 29 at 6:30 p.m. The last performance will be on August 31 at Bellevue Memorial Park as the closing act for Bellevue’s “Arts, Music, More” Labor Day celebration, which will take place from 1:30-7 p.m. Valenzuela has assembled groups to play Pink Floyd music before in the Valley, including full performances of the band’s “Dark Side of the Moon” and “Wish You Were Here” albums. “We’re not going to do a specific album this time,” he said. “The idea behind that is to be able to play a broader range of material. Doing an entire album is cool, but it’s nice to be able to hand pick.”

Ride Idaho To Celebrate 10th Anniversary In Hailey

Ride Idaho, an annual cycling adventure through the state, will celebrate its 10th anniversary this year in Hailey, with a special musical shindig at the Sun Valley Brewing Co. on Wednesday, August 6, at 6 p.m. The event will be free and open to the public and will feature the jazz tunes of High Street. “They get the crowd going and out dancing,” said Ride Director Earl Grief. “We figured they would be great for our 10th celebration.” The anniversary festivities will also include a “Bike Rodeo” for kids on Thursday, August 7, from 11-1 at Hop Porter Park in Hailey. “The kids can go around and learn some bike safety information,” Grief said. “We want them to bring their helmets. We’ll show them how to adjust them. Mountain Rides will provide helmets to those who don’t have them.” This will be the third year the Ride Idaho route will stop in the Wood River Valley, Grief said. “It’s a very positive place to bring it,” he said. “There are lots of activities to do, lot’s to see. Everybody has a great time.” For more information about Ride Idaho, visit rideidaho.org. Manon Gaudreau will host a lacto-fermentation workshop
