Idaho State University MBA Program Goes Online

Giving A Voice To Some Special Young Men

BY MARYLAND DOLL

ack-to-school season could take on a whole new meaning for the Wood River Valley thanks to Idaho State University’s latest course addition. This fall the ISU College of Business will be offering a new fully online MBA program, making it easier for Valley residents to achieve a master’s degree in business administration without having to commute to Twin Falls (or farther) to attend classes. The program is just one of several online educational opportunities ISU will be offering in the fall as part of an effort to facilitate higher learning regardless of geographics. The University’s MBA program has always consisted of “Core I” and “Core II” coursework, with the Core I previously being the only one offered online. However, because of a growing demand and need from students, the entire program will now be offered online, as well as in the classroom. This addition, says ISU Director of Graduate Studies Heidi Wadsworth, allows the University to “offer the highest quality MBA at the most affordable cost with tremendous flexibility for our busy students. The online option is an opportunity for us to grow our program even more and to serve a greater population.” However, this isn’t the first attempt by ISU to provide outreach to the Wood River Valley’s growing population of educated professionals. Besides the new MBA program, the University also offers a Summer Spanish Institute, which provides graduate level professional development credits, allowing educators to earn credits that go toward the renewal of their teaching certificates. Another tool for educators is the utilization of the Idaho Education Network (IEN), available at Wood River high schools, which delivers coursework in ISU’s doctoral program in Higher Education Administration. Lastly, ISU has an online Bachelor’s in Workplace Training and Leadership course which recognizes a student’s work experience and technical skills while granting up to 24 competency-based credits toward their degree, now available as an MA program. This is not to mention the many other online credential programs available on the ISU website. Although it can be difficult to completely replicate a classroom setting and the attentiveness that comes with being able to interact with your professor and peers, moving classes onto the web brings higher education to a

acota Ratcliffe opens the door at Pet Grooming by Debbie and offers a calculated smile. “Hello. How are you?” he greets his co-workers, who are busy stocking shelves with beef hide sticks and sweet potato dog chews. It’s only a few words. But it’s enough to make people sit up and take notice. “I met Dacota in high school and for four years he walked around with his head down, going from point A to point B clutching his computer bag. He didn’t want to communicate. He didn’t know how to communicate. He came to the V.O.I.C.E. II program this year and he blossomed,” said Jamie Ellison, who oversees V.O.I.C.E. II. V.O.I.C.E. II, or Vocational Occupational Independent Career Education, was started by the Blaine County School District this year to help youngsters who deal with such issues as Asperger’s and Down’s syndrome make the transition from high school to living and working in the community. Young adults between the ages of 18 and 21 learn work skills, and they learn how to live and recreate independently. Four students offered to be pioneers: Ratcliffe, Nathan Lago, Thomas Moell and Tadd Saldivia. Ellison, who oversees the program, expects as many as nine participants this year and, perhaps, 15 next year. Ratcliffe was diagnosed at 12 with Asperger’s syndrome, characterized by nonverbal communication and difficulties with social interaction. But today anyone observing him wash dogs or lean into a push mower at Debbie’s might just think he’s a quiet guy. “He started talking, walking and doing other things

normally. But as he got older, we kept hitting bumps. He was very quiet, not social. He never took social cues. He kept to himself. And normal things everybody said to do didn’t work,” said his mother, Daphne Ratcliffe. “Two years ago I never thought Dacota would be able to leave home by the time he reaches 25. But, thanks to V.O.I.C.E., I can see it happening. His social improvement and self-confidence has been phenomenal.”

THE COMMUNITY—“OUR CLASSROOM”

Lago has Down’s syndrome, which limits his intellectual ability. He was a popular student at Wood River High School where he was elected homecoming and prom king. But he graduated without learning to read. Ellison worked with him to figure out how he could hold down a job at McClain’s Pizzeria, without someone having to hold his hand every minute. An alarm on Lago’s iPad tells him when it’s time to head to work. When he gets there, he calls Ellison to say, “Game on.” Pictures on his laptop remind him of tasks he has to perform, starting with stocking ice. He’s also learned to recognize some words by sight. “It’s neat because I don’t have to go to work with him anymore,” said Ellison. “Nathan didn’t know how to use the phone before. Now he can call me and hold a conversation. People tell me, ‘I can’t believe Nathan rides the bus.’ ‘I can’t believe Dacota had a conversation with me.’ ” Legally, schools have to provide help for special needs students as they transition into adulthood. V.O.I.C.E gives the students an opportunity to learn independent living skills so they can achieve the highest level of independence possible, said Debi Gutknecht, director of special services for the school district. The program has been a dream of Ellison’s since he

We anticipate a full house, as we had last year. It’s going to be a very lively crowd.” Former Nordic racer-turned-river guide Reid Pletcher will model as the “proud and painted” for the event, as will Anja Sundali, who is donating her body to be adorned by paint for the second straight year.

Mark Greenawalt will paint a model in public so the audience can watch the process. “This is a fun way to call attention to a cause close to so many of our hearts,” said Dina Madsen of Madeline + Oliver. “We all know someone who has suffered from breast cancer.” Mulenos said she loves being part of a fundraiser that excited so many people last year: “The art was spectacular, and it was something my 23-year-old daughter Arielle got excited about. Her generation is the generation we’re targeting. We’ve got to find a way to keep from passing breast cancer on to the next generation.” Two hundred $50 raffle tickets will be sold for the accommodations at the Garden Isle of Kauai, making the chances of winning “really wonderful,” according to Mulenos. The private home sits on a beach that features a 25-minute walk one way. Online tickets can be bought until noon Saturday—purchasers need not be present to win.

And we need to make that happen. We need to get everybody on board, including the wealthy individuals who live here part-time but don’t ante up. I believe it’s important for all four winter sports to feel the love.” Farrington admitted that she’s said “yes” to everything, including a skateboard camp. “It’s been crazy,” she said. “I get goosebumps every time I hear the national anthem. I went to the Oscars, where I met a ton of actors that I thought I knew only to find out ‘I don’t know you; I just see you on TV.’ The ESPYs were amazing, I never thought I’d get nominated. And tomorrow I’m heading for Argentina to ride powder and do some filming.” Her gold medal goes with her everywhere, she said. And it’s made her more responsible. Not only does she not want to lose it but, she says, it reminds her that she’s now a role model. She’d also like to find a way to give back—organizing a girl’s snowboard camp, for instance. She’s quick to acknowledge that she didn’t make it to the Olympics solely on her own power, but had a lot of help from the Sun Valley community, including many of those she was playing golf with. “Without this fundraiser I wouldn’t have made it,” she said.

An Irreverent Romp Through The Bard’s Works BY KAREN BOSSICK

hirty-seven plays, 154 sonnets, a little swordplay, a shipwreck, the shortest-ever performance of “Hamlet” and ... American football? Is William Shakespeare turning over in his grave yet? Three local bartenders and self-proclaimed Shakespeare aficionados will fast-forward through Shakespeare this coming week when they present “The Compleat Wrks of Wllm Shkspr (Abridged). The play will run Monday through Sunday, Aug. 31, at the nexStage Theatre, 120 S.

ur rains from late July through mid-August were great for all plants. The late-season annual wildflowers are thriving. New growth is plentiful. Yet, it’s amazing how quickly the top 1-2 inches of soil dries out. I was pulling weeds in a sun-exposed spot, and the morning after a rain the dirt was bone dry. This is important in spring because seedbeds need to be kept moist virtually every hour, even for native plants. Cyclical moisture can benefit some plants, but suppress others. Seedbeds are like babies—they need a lot of care early on, and far less when the plants reach maturity and become drought-tolerant. Plants and animals both respond Oriental lily.

It’s not only the plants that benefit from the rains. There is an evident psychological effect. People are happier (for the most part). Whether we know it or not, the two huge fires of the last seven years created fear and insecurity on conscious and subconscious levels. Massive layoffs and large budget cuts have the same effect on the social, economic and political landscape. Residents of the Valley are visibly relieved by the elimination of ‘fire season’ and the anxiety that accompanies it. Temporarily, we get relief from ‘water stress.’ The water emergency remains in effect, as it should. The big picture hasn’t changed, nor should our water consumption habits. Rain increases phosphorous/nitrogen-laden runoff from our chemically-fed properties, further poisoning the Big Wood and Magic Reservoir. There’s a good reason behind the Wood River Land Trust’s ‘Trout Friendly Lawn’ signs. The plants’ optimism is infectious. This year’s El Niño is supposed to be the largest since 1997, which was the largest ever recorded. Our recent rains originated from the Gulf of California, and some of that moisture spun north of us, then curled south. If this pattern holds, even if sporadically, it could bring us a lot of snow.

to your health

Back To School Health Tips BY LUKE SNELL

ending kids back to school is a time of mixed emotions. On one hand, it’s nice to get back into a good routine. On the other, it means the carefree days of another summer are over. The start of school can also provide an opportunity for a fresh start toward healthy habits. Proper sleep and a proper diet are two keys to great health. So how can you make this school year the healthiest one yet? #1: Sleep: If you’ve spent the past couple months with no bedtime routine, it’s a good idea to start re-establishing one at least a week before school starts. You can ease back in by having kids go to bed 15 minutes earlier, then 30, etc., until you reach your target school bedtime. Experts say elementary-school-aged kids need 10 to 11 hours of sleep per night whereas high school age can get away with 8 or 9 hours. #2: Choose lunchmeat that is hormone- and nitrate-free. Why? Because some studies have shown nitrates can increase the risk of cancer. (www.cancer.org) And added hormones can mess with the

balance of our delicate endocrine system. Even if you can’t spring for the organic meats, there are affordable, minimally processed options that are free of nitrates, preservatives and hormones. #3: Choose natural yogurt that is free of dyes and low in sugar. There are plenty of unhealthy yogurts on the market masquerading as something healthy. But with so many natural and delicious options, you don’t have to resort to buying junky yogurt. You can find low sugar varieties sweetened with fruit and honey. You can also find an array of dairy-free yogurt made from almond milk or coconut milk. And to keep it hormone-free, go for organic or at least a product that labels itself free of hormones. #4: Sneak in a whole grain and a piece of fruit. There are tons of really great breads available today that would fall into the “healthy” category while still tasting delicious. Look for minimally processed, sprouted grains for your biggest health boost. And when you sneak in a piece of organic fruit, you know your kids are getting a pesticide-free dose of fiber, vitamins, and enzymes.

Unintended Consequences BY DICK DORWORTH

very day, everywhere, everyone is affected by “The Law of Unintended Consequences,” the cynical term for “Murphy’s Law.” In many cases, previously invisible consequences are more aptly termed “ignored” than unintended, and “law” implies a certainty about human understanding of the nature of things that carries its own unintended (ignored) consequences. In our nation nearly 3 percent of scientists and approximately half the population discount the findings of the 97 percent of educated, concerned scientists who agree on causes, consequences and crises of human-caused global warming (also known as anthropogenic climate disruption) and their unintended (ignored) consequences. The willful ignorance of the discounters, popularly known as ‘deniers,’ gives Murphy a bad name. Like all human dynamics, unintended consequences are as old as human history, but the term was popularized by Robert Merton, a professor at Columbia University and the founder of the sociology of science. Merton also coined the terms “role model” and “self-fulfilling prophesy.” The term grew out of Merton’s 1936 paper “The Unanticipated Consequences of Purposive Social Action” in which he emphasizes that “purposive action ... is exclusively concerned with ‘conduct’ as distinct from ‘behavior’; that is, with action that involves motives and, consequently, a choice between various alternatives.” Merton pointed out that action is not always based on reason and that motive affects rationality. The motives driving those who deny that global warming is human-caused are

clear, the comfort and convenience of the most powerful sectors of modern civilization at the expense, among other components of the web of life, of the less developed nations of the world and the future of all the people of the world, including your and my grandchildren. ‘Irrational’ is a polite term to describe such thinking and the motives that allow it, whether expressed by disgraced ex-politicos like Dick Cheney, those still in the game like Senators James Inofe of Oklahoma and Michael Crapo of Idaho, or the frothy ramblings of media meteorites like Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity, or asteroids like Sarah Palin. Neither they nor you nor I will miss out on the unintended (ignored) consequences they so blithely deny. Unintended consequences come in many forms, a few of them beneficial. The twoand-a-half-mile-wide demilitarized zone between North and South Korea was put in place in 1953 at the end of the Korean War. Despite its name, it is the most heavily militarized border on earth. Because humans do not inhabit the zone, it has become one of the richest, most diverse natural habitats in the world, home to several endangered and rare animal and plant species and an environmental/ecological haven. Most unintended consequences are more like the ones from Idaho’s four Lower Snake River dams built in the 1950s to supply irrigation, hydropower and navigation from Lewiston to the Columbia River. Today, they supply little of either, cost taxpayers millions of dollars every year, and have decimated the salmon and steelhead populations of Idaho and turned the once lovely Snake River into a fetid canal. tws

With V.O.I.C.E., they graduate with their peers and go into their version of college, a program that gives them actual experience in the real world. The high school offered these kids an amazing community but it was a comfortable, controlled atmosphere. Our classroom is now this wonderful community we live in.”

Dacota Ratcliffe not only helped refurbish the former bed and breakfast on Hailey’s Bullion Street where V.O.I.C.E. is based, but he volunteered to water the plants there this summer. Three of the young men have opened a checking account, and two have gotten debit cards. They’ve learned to work within a budget. And they’ve followed Ellison to the supermarket where they’ve learned not to spend all their money on doughnuts and ice cream but, rather, on things like ground beef and onions, which they take back to the V.O.I.C.E. home and cook into tacos and spaghetti. A couple times a week Lago and Moell, who has autism, ride the bus from their homes in Hailey to the Wood River Community YMCA where they take their place next to others on stair climbers and exercise bikes. Both took nutrition classes offered by the Y and both follow health plans prescribed by a physical therapist. Moell, who works at Parts Plus, has lost 25 pounds as he’s learned to exercise and

the way i see it

eat more healthily. He’s also gained the confidence to hold a conversation with a waiter when eating out. Before, he’d freeze in restaurants because there were so many options to choose from. Saldivia, who has Asperger’s, has learned to try new foods. And he’s changed his mindset from not wanting to work to enjoying such work as that of a substitute custodian. “Each has gained a sense of independence—true independence,” Ellison said. “They’re all feeling that sense of freedom you get when you turn 16 and drive a car for the first time. I feel like a proud father watching them.” The program is so cutting-edge that Ellison was invited to speak at a national education conference in May. The conference included the third highest-ranking official in the U.S. Department of Education—an official who, Ellison says, talks to the President regularly. Ratcliffe shared his story at a statewide Tools for Life program earlier this year. Paraprofessional Jennifer Bradshaw, who keeps tabs on the young men, applauded the program. “Dacota, for instance, is coming to work, getting actual experience, instead of staying at home all summer where he would learn absolutely nothing,” she said. Tif Lago, Nathan’s mother, said the program has fueled tremendous growth in her son’s level of independence. “He’s learned to do things we were hesitant to teach him or didn’t have time to teach him, like taking the bus,” she said. “His future has expanded as he strives toward his goal of living independently. A lot of kids coming down the pike are going to benefit from this program.”

hile the world mourns the death of a true comic genius, we, here in the Wood River Valley, can look back with fondness at our times involving him. Williams was a frequent visitor to the Sun Valley area and the slopes of Baldy. Locals had been touched by his presence many times and always with his impromptu sense of humor. Once, dressed in allwhite snow gear, Williams ended his run at the bottom of the mountain laughing because he thought he was invisible, and then jumped up on a log and entertained fellow skiers for about 20 minutes. The 17 or 18 lucky ones that day received their own Robin Williams ad lib concert with delight and awe. Several times over the years that Williams spent up here, he would try out new material at The Liberty Theatre and invite members of the ski patrol and Sun Valley workers to come judge his new act for free. As always,

Robin Williams Touched Our Valley BY CHRIS MILLSPAUGH

he was met with enthusiastic applause. Yes, he did, indeed, touch our Valley. Depression is a deadly disorder and affects millions in the world. Here in the United States and the Wood River Valley, we are constantly reminded of how it claims many of our friends and family. Cries for help are heard every day as we struggle to understand why and what went wrong. It seems to reach all of us in one way or another. Silently and suddenly, we are involved with people who are close in our lives deciding to end theirs. For those of us who are left behind, the effect is devastating and yet, we have to pick up the pieces and continue on. The only way to combat depression is to be alert to the moods of your loved ones and get them professional help right away. I learned of its seriousness last week and urge all of you to be aware of its consequences. For Robin Williams, it was too late, but it may not be for someone you love. Get them help right away. Nice talking to you. tws

A Library Without Books? STORY AND PHOTOS BY KAREN BOSSICK

magine: A gondola sitting in the middle of the children’s library offering kids a place to read that celebrates Sun Valley’s ski heritage. Books categorized by subject, rather than the Dewey Decimal System. Cushion window seats and bike art on the wall. A slide exit for children. An automated return machine to sort returned books and tapes. These are a few of the things Community Library patrons said they’d like to see last week as the library invited them to “re-imagine” The Community Library. Traditionally, libraries have been keepers of content, making books available for the consumption of knowledge. Now, they’re becoming creators of content, thanks to revolutionary technological changes taking places, Library Board Chairman Ly-

man Drake told those attending one of three workshops. “Technological innovations open up more that we can do,” he said. “Imagine that tomorrow

Dennis Humphries, who has assisted with 75 redesigns in the past decade. Humphries rifled through slides of innovative libraries across the country. Libraries

Kathleen McCabe said she would like to see a coffee café at the library.

we were going to empty the library. What do you want to put into it?” added Library Trustee Morley Golden. The workshops were conducted by Denver architect

where librarians are called “concierges.” Libraries with gardens on top boasting cameras to show the wildlife living there. Libraries with front porches where

square-dancers can catch their breath from doing a do-si-do. Children’s libraries with see-through walls that allow parents to keep their eyes on their kids while perusing the adult stacks. Libraries with giant letters spelling out words like “Discover!” that tell kids they’re about to embark on a wonderful adventure. Libraries with treehouses, child-sized doors, furniture that looks like people, walls featuring local youth’s art, a music room, a recording room, a game room. Libraries with mobile cooking classes for teens. One slide showed the Teton County Library where fiber optics strung through the entryway change color every time someone taps into the database. Another featured Anythink Wright Farms, in Thornton, Colo., now among the top 10 libraries in the country after having been the poorest. A library near Denver featured a Boeing 737 cockpit for patrons to sit in. Another featured a legacy wall of hand-painted tiles that an Eagle Scout sold for $2 each to the student artists. There was even a slide of a bookless library in San

Antonio. “To me, that’s not a friendly, engaging experience. You can go too far,” Humphries said. Humphries offered that “the outdoor spaces around this library are beautiful, yet they’re hard to get to.” “This meeting room we’re in represents a large portion of this library’s space, but it’s used only for meetings,” he added, noting that some libraries have even hosted wedding receptions. About 170 people took part in the process, registering their opinions via sticky notes. Reuben Perrin said he’d like to see mobile book stacks that can be moved from time to time to form new rooms. He’d also like to make better use of the meeting room when it’s not being used for lectures. Kathleen McCabe described the nature spaces and outdoor café at the Getty Museum. “I think of all the meetings I have at places like Velocio. Why not here?” she said. The work will now shift to focus groups that are being formed this week. The 90-day process will end Nov. 4. Children’s Librarian Helen Morgus couldn’t contain her enthusiasm. “Let’s go raise some money!” tws

Guardians Of The Galaxy JON RATED THIS MOVIE BY JONATHAN KANE

T H E W E E K LY S U N •

inally, a big-budget comic book fantasy from Marvel that doesn’t feature the flawed, cliché-driven, maudlin lead superhero. “Guardians of the Galaxy,” the latest super-big-budget extravaganza from the Marvel studios, actually has a sense of humor, which is so refreshing it’s downright incredible. Much of that is attributed to the very likable lead, Chris Pratt, out doing Harrison Ford’s droll delivery as an outer space scavenger who likes to call himself Starlord. Pratt is very good, and a promising career looms ahead of him. A lot of it is also attributable to the wry wit of the director, James Gunn⎯a veteran of Troma Entertainment studios. Gunn keeps things light but also uses his considerable resources to full effect creating one incredible set piece after another. There is also the aural treat of a dynamite ’70’s score and the ongoing joke of Pratt’s attachment to a Walkman cassette player given to him by his dying mother. The plot, though, is pretty disposable, leading us to the inevitable sequel. Pratt finds a magic orb on a remote planet coveted by Thanos and his lieutenant Ronan who seek to destroy the Utopian planet Xandar, led by Glenn Close. Also covetous is Benicio del Toro as the Collector. But the orb is pretty powerful and Pratt goes from wanting a big payday to saving the universe from its power. It’s here that he teams up with the other Guardians, a tree android, a raccoon, a big guy played by Dave Bautista, and a greenskinned temptress played by Zoe Saldana. All are damaged and all find in each other the family they had always hoped for. If you love comics, you’ll love this film. If you are looking for a little silly escape, you’ll like it, too. tws

Symphony Plays Through Blackout & ‘Toons Up STORY BY KAREN BOSSICK

hen lightning zapped the power in Ketchum and Sun Valley for nearly three hours last Tuesday,

up for four musicians who accepted Susan Mayer’s invitation to perform later that night at her Elkhorn condo, in one of dozens of often-impromptu concerts held in private homes throughout the

such as “Up” and “Brave,” rolled across screens as the orchestra turned to bagpipes and other Celtic instruments to provide the soundtrack. Others never made the most

anticipated concert of the season, as highway crews inexplicably chose the evening rush hour to lay down a lane of asphalt. This trapped homeowners north of East Fork for an hour and left others stranded on the highway as they tried to make their way home from work. A few weren’t about to be denied, resorting to such extreme

measures such as breaking through a gate at the south of Gimlet. Many proclaimed the Pixar concert the best they’d ever seen, only to return the next night to watch violinist Joshua Bell receive four standing ovations and Teresa Heinz’s hand-picked composer Mason Bates introduce other-worldly electronic

Violinist Ferenc Illenyi of the Houston Symphony not only led musicians in a private party but announced his engagement at the party.

the Sun Valley Summer Symphony was faced with a decision of whether to play. The orchestra chose to play on despite cool weather that numbed their fingers and light that waned even as they plowed through pieces by Dmitri Shostakovich and Richard Strauss. “There are two things you need to know about tonight’s performance,” Music Director Alasdair Neale said, drastically shortening his normal preface. “The first part: Sad. The second part: Happy.” The concert was just a warm-

three weeks musicians converge on Sun Valley. And, while they majored in classical, they diverged, as well, playing gypsy music and hoedowns until midnight as lights were returned. More than 6,000 people— many of them children—spread picnic blankets on the lawn Friday night, joining nearly 1,600 people in the Pavilion composing the largest audience ever to witness a performance by the Sun Valley Summer Symphony. They watched, mesmerized, as two hours of Pixar cartoons,

To illustrate Pixar’s music, the symphony displayed video clips from the animation studio’s films on screens both inside and outside the pavilion.

The season ended on a high note with a tribute to the late Sun Valley Resort owner Earl Holding. “They had outstanding variety this year—and it all seemed so upbeat,” said longtime symphony-goer Marci Onofrio. tws

his has certainly been the most interesting summer we’ve had to write about in a long, long time, with everything from too little water to too much water. We’ve had fire and rain to beat the band. Mother Nature has been challenging fly anglers all summer. The one consistent has been the quality of fishing in Silver Creek. With the Big Wood blowing out seemingly weekly, and with the South Fork of the Boise turning into a big question mark, it has been nice to see the best hatches in a decade on the Silver Creek! The Trico spinner fall is as good as we’ve seen it in many seasons. This seems true of Silver Creek, the Lost River, the Big Wood and just about anywhere fish swim locally these days. Anglers can expect several more weeks of this and, with the steady weather expected over the coming weeks, we may finally get into a pattern of fishing more akin to what we are used to seeing. Fishing the Trico is fun, rewarding and an event that will keep anglers coming back over and over again. If you haven’t fished the Trico on Silver Creek, try and come this week. You will see a show that will make you want to master the art of fly angling. The Spinner Fall has been starting about 8:30 a.m. and fish are eating them soon thereafter. To review: Spinner falls are different insect events than hatches. The spinner fall is the event that takes place after the insect hatches from the water. The insect heads to the riverbank, shucks a layer of skin, and within a few hours to a day the bugs return to the water. They will mate in the air over the water, commencing the spinner fall. Once they have mated, they will fly like a quickly moving cloud up the river. Eventually they run out of gas, they lay their eggs in the water, and die at the surface. This is when the fish key on them, vacuuming the dead bugs from the surface. It is a must-see event for all fly anglers. Looking forward, it’s time to stock up on Hoppers, Mahogany Duns, and the tiny Fall Baetis. This can be a tough fly to find at many shops toward the end of the season. A size 24 can be hard to find and hard to see, but they are the key to a good day of fishing in the cool of autumn! Happy fishing, everyone!

Callie Weber

Compassionate Leader

BY JONATHAN KANE

allie Weber, a Wood River High School senior carrying a 3.97 grade point average, is a member of the Compassionate Young Leaders organization and last year traveled to India with a group of other students to do service and spread compassion to those less fortunate. At Wood River, Weber has a very busy schedule, being president of the Model UN, serving on the Wood River Land Trust Student Conservation Council and by being a member of National Honor Society. She has also taken several Advanced Placement courses including Language and Composition, U.S. History, Calculus A & B, Biology and Psychology. But it was her trip to India that had the most profound effect on her. Compassionate Young Leaders is dedicated to teaching mental balance, or being aware of what you are doing and being able to handle your emotions and compassion. “Nine kids went to India,” she said, “and before that we would meet once a week on Tuesday evenings discussing community service opportunities and how to fundraise and do a 20-minute mindfulness practice, which is like a meditation, but there is no religious connotation.

“We also read books about compassion and happiness, like the Dalai Lama’s ‘Beyond Religion,’ which talked about the difference between happiness and pleasure, which we have a tough time distinguishing between in the West and that bad emotions need not be destructive. “We also read ‘Happiness,’ by Mattieu Ricard, which covered many of the same topics. They were both really cool and they talked about things that we hadn’t been exposed to before. All these teachings are secular and are a way to improve your spiritual/mindfulness practice. At first I didn’t understand it but now I’m really into it. You develop a calm mind and become aware of your body so that wherever you go or whatever you do you are in the moment. You learn to be present and not worried about the past or the future.” Weber’s trip to India took place from June 26 to July 21 of last year and started in Delhi for two days before traveling on to Ladok. “Delhi was so hot and humid and crowded and the caste system was really apparent there. We stayed in a neighborhood by the Embassy that was walled off for the wealthy and people were outside living on the streets. It was really insane. “In Ladok we did service by working at a festival orga-

nized by the Dalai Lama and where he spoke every day. There were 150,000 people there and we were assigned to assist with the elderly. We would walk them from the gate to their seats, serve them tea and water and bread and help them in any way that we could. We also brought trash bags with us and spent two hours every night cleaning the grounds. “The Dalai Lama gave teachings every day and there were a lot of prayer sessions. His house was at the back of the grounds and every morning he would walk the street lined by thousands of people with scarves to be blessed. His presence was amazing and so intense. It was amazing because one time we were in the front row and he smiled and waved at us. It was also amazing to see that many people gathered to make themselves better human beings.” What did Weber take out of the experience? “The most important part was that so many people share a spiritual belief and put their faith into one thing. That’s not something you see generally in America. It was also a shock to see Indian culture, and really impressive. They have so little yet they are so happy and content. In America, we don’t really feel that’s possible.” tws

financial planning

Reach Financial Wellness PRESENTED BY STATE FARM AGENT PATRICK BUCHANAN WRITTEN BY STAFF

re your finances healthy— or could they use a checkup? Start the New Year with fresh resolve to achieve financial wellness.

CONTROL DEBT

Enhance your financial health by keeping debt manageable. Know what you owe and make a plan to control debt using these tips: •Pay off debts with the highest interest rates first, such as credit card balances. •Pay as much as you can on your smallest debts and pay at least the minimum on large ones—even modest accomplishments can motivate you to continue. •Review your finances to see that you’re not overextended: For example, your home typically should cost no more than 2 to 2.5 times your household income and your mortgage should be no more than 80 percent of the home’s value. •Don’t use credit cards to get out of debt. You’ll not only pay more in interest, but you could damage your financial health and credit score at the same time.

SPEND WISELY

Financial wellness is based on living within your means. Spending money carefully and wisely will greatly enhance your financial health. •Write down every expense for a month and find out exactly where your money is going. You may be able to identify “extra money” to apply to your goals. •Make a realistic budget

using convenient online tools such as Mint.com. •Two-income families: Try to cover monthly expenses with just one income and use as much as possible from the other paycheck for savings. •Before buying, ask yourself if the item is a “need” or a “want.” If it’s the latter, wait a few weeks before you buy to make sure you have the cash in hand—or to decide if you still want it.

INCREASE SAVINGS

Saving for retirement, children’s education, emergencies or other expenses can help protect you—plus it delivers peace of mind. Get in the habit of paying yourself first. Give savings the same importance as paying bills, and save something from each paycheck. Participate in your company’s automatic savings program, if one is available. And always contribute enough to take advantage of matching funds, if they’re offered. Many experts suggest putting at least 10 percent of your income into savings— and some recommend saving as much as 25 percent. If saving is hard for you, start by saving at least 1 percent of your paycheck and commit to increasing your savings level as your salary grows. Save enough in your emergency fund to cover at least six months’ worth of expenses—enough for nine to 12 months is even better. If you do tap into these savings, rebuild the fund as soon as possible. Need a few pointers? Contact Patrick at 928-7888 or see more at: tinyurl.com/ tws-3steps

Idaho’s Newest Invaders

he Idaho Department of Agriculture has listed two new invaders to the already listed 64 noxious weeds in the state. Purple starthistle and Iberian starthistle have been found in Twin Falls County and added to the Statewide Early Detection/Rapid Response list. This designation is a temporary measure that allows county weed departments the authority to control the recently discovered weeds while the state works to make the noxious weed designation law. Noxious weeds are plants that are not native to the United States or our area, have proven to be very invasive, and are harmful to humans, animals, the environment, and the economy. Both purple and Iberian starthistle were placed on the list because they are nearly identical—mature seed heads are needed to distinguish the two. Introduced from Europe and found in California in the 1800s, this recent finding in a Twin Falls County field is the first time the weed has

been sighted in Idaho. These starthistles can reach over 6 feet tall when mature and are characterized by purple flowers with spine-like projections that can be 1 inch in length. These plants are prolific seed producers that flower in late summer. Starthistle seeds can be carried by wind, or dispersed by hay, straw or machinery. If you come across Idaho’s newest noxious weeds, please give the Blaine County Noxious Weed Department a call at 788-5516. A full list of the 64 listed noxious weeds in Idaho can be found at blainecounty.org, look for “Noxious Weeds” under “County Departments.”

It is no surprise that this landscape is home to the Plein Air Painters of Idaho who are setting up the 11th annual Redfish Paint Out to be held at Redfish Lake Lodge during the first week of September. Twenty members of the Plein Air Painters will begin their exhibit on Monday, September 1, and continue displaying their paintings through Thursday, September 4. Admiring the art hanging in the exhibition tent will not be the sole activity the painters will offer; they will be working on new paintings around the Redfish Lake area and will be giving demonstrations for those brave enough to mix paint with them. The times and locations of these demonstrations will be posted in the exhibition tent. There will also be a reception in the Redfish Lake Interpretive Center on Wednesday, September 3 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. There will also be a reception in the exhibition tent on Thursday, September 4 from 5-9 p.m. where you can enjoy light refreshments and the ability to vote for the artwork that tickled your fancy.

Willa Watts To Sing At ‘SoulFest’ BY KAREN BOSSICK

tall!” Music lovers will get to hear Watts for themselves when the Sun Valley Hallelujah Chorus presents Summer Soulfest Friday and Saturday at Ketchum’s nexStage Theater. Sun Valley caterer Judith McQueen, who used to cater Hollywood affairs, will provide a spread of hors d’oeuvres and libations for a Prelude Party fundraiser beginning at 6 p.m. each night. Tickets to that and the concert are $25. General admission opens

atty Parsons Tewson is introducing a new gospel soul singer as she prepares for her first Summer Soulfest Friday and Saturday. Willa Watts hails all the way from Alaska. And while she may not hail from the Deep South, Watts’ brand of soul is no less inspiring. It’s earned her such accolades as the National Soloist for the Veterans of Foreign Wars. She’s been a featured soloist in the Fairbanks, Alaska, annual Beatles Mania and Motown Review. She’s an annual star at the Tanana Valley State Fair, and her recorded CD, “What a Wonderful World,” can be downloaded via iTunes, Amazon MP3, Google, xbox, Shazam, JUKE and more. “I sang with her in a 100-voice Willa Watts.

who has opened for Joan Rivers and toured France, Italy and the British Isles. Also featured is Steve Antry, CEO of Eagle Energy Exploration, in Tulsa, Okla., and a part-time resident of Sun Valley. Antry, who sang “The Impossible Dream” at an earlier concert of the Hallelujah Chorus, has been working on a Christian blues album that should be out by Christmas. Other soloists will include Heather Johnston, Cintia Scola, Dartha Rivera, Erica Lynn, Amy Nelson, Sandra Hofferber and Sue Noel. The concert will feature such numbers as “People Get Ready,” “This Train,” Operator,” “Mad Dogs and Englishmen,” Bob Dylan’s “Forever Young,” Billy Preston’s “That’s the Way God Planned It” and numbers from such musicians as Joe Cocker and Leonard Cohen. “It’s a more intimate setting than most of our concerts so it should be lots of fun,” said Tewson, who has a unique way of rallying her singers to a lively, joyous crescendo. “We didn’t get to do our annual Emancipation concert last spring because I was tending to my husband, who’d had a hip replacement. We thought we’d try a summer cabaret concert and see what we can do,” she added. “We’re dealing with a smaller group of singers than at Christmas but it’s a powerful group. And some—myself included—are dealing with family members who are having health issues. But that makes it more personal when it comes to singing. Sometimes out of the depth of despair comes a lot of good creativity.” tws

Local Food For Thought The Bridge Is Broken

Let’s fix it, together By Cynthia Luck Carr, CHHC, AADP Holistic health educator, life coach and community builder

“What do you mean, they don’t know how to use a whole chicken?” A poultry farmer and I recently had a conversation about reducing the cost of raising broiler chickens so that more people could eat local, pasture-raised chicken and keep the farmers in the black. Today, the typical consumer buys ready-to-eat chicken pieces that need only basic preparation. This is one small example of disconnect between consumers and food producers. In order to develop a thriving local food system, we must restore the bridge. This begins with developing an accurate understanding of the systems in place. According to USpoultry. org, of the top 10 national chicken producers, two—Tyson and Pilgrim’s Pride— produce 49.4 percent of the total edible pounds. These chickens are raised in AFOs and CAFOs (Animal Feeding Operations and Confined Animal Feeding Operations). Though this method of raising animals allows for production of very cheap protein, CAFOs, by definition, do not have pasture for feeding, and are prohibited by animal welfare certification standards. Consumers who wish to rule out CAFO chicken companies can buy from largescale organic farms, mostly from Nebraska, Colorado or California. This helps, but still depends on many miles of transportation (fossil fuel). The most sustainable option is grown right here. So what does it take to get live Wood River Valley chickens from the pasture to the store? After raising them, the farmer must catch and load them into crates, typically waiting until dusk when chickens roost (CAFOs don’t provide roosts). They then travel four hours to New Plymouth, where the closest inspected chicken processer is located. After waiting the next day for the processing to be completed, the farmer transports the processed chicken (if in pieces, add 28 percent to processing cost) back to the Valley and, ultimately, to the buyer. Additionally, according to a report by the Union of Concerned Scientists, CAFOs benefit greatly from federal grain subsidies when purchasing feed. Small-acreage farmers pay full price. The costs add up quickly and are ultimately passed on to the consumer. As we deepen our understanding of the systems in place, we see the urgent need for change. Remember, how we spend our dollar is a vote. By adjusting our eating and cooking habits and voting beyond cost, we will ultimately see prices balance out, benefiting us all.

I didn’t have anywhere to go because my mom wouldn’t have anything to do with me. I didn’t know how I was going to do it on my own. I was still in an emotional position where I didn’t want to go anywhere. I just wanted to stay at the bottom. I was depressed. I didn’t care. There were times when I wanted to give up.” “I’ve been climbing up a very tough mountain. The Advocates helped me become emotionally stable and stronger.
