Kids: Bring Bowe home Photos & Story By KAREN BOSSICK

J

The schoolchidren’s scrapbook sets next to a poster of pictures taken when Bowe was their age.

ani Bergdahl’s eyes welled with tears as she joined 90 Woodside Elementary fourth-graders in the chant, “Bring Bowe home! Bring Bowe home!�

It was a bittersweet moment for the Hailey woman, whose soldier son is believed to be held by Afghan captors 8,000 miles around the world. “Sorry, I didn’t know this was going to be so emotional,� she said, wiping tears away as she stood to address the Hailey schoolchildren.

Bergdahl made a rare public appearance Monday afternoon to thank the students for the letters they’d written to President Obama urging him to bring Bowe back home safely.

The students presented Bergdahl

with two scrapbooks holding copies of those letters, as well as note cards and pictures they’d made for the family. “Please Mr. President take more time to find Bowe and bring him home. His family is worried because he is gone,� wrote one. “We think you can do it! Believe in yourself Mr. President.� “Could you try your hardest to bring Bowe home from Afghanistan?� wrote another. “I think that maybe you could talk to the president of Afghanistan.�

Airport enters a vital phase

By KAREN BOSSICK

T

he effort to build a replacement airport is entering its most critical phase since the process began in 2004.

The next six months are the most vital, Friedman Memorial Airport Manager Rick Baird told dozens of government and business leaders who crowded into the back room of The Roosevelt Bar and Grille last Wednesday night for an economic update organized by the Wood River Economic Partnership (WREP).

Baird said the draft environmental impact statement is due out next spring after nearly three years of analysis. On Wednesday the Blaine County Airport Advisory Commission began preparing a comprehensive financial plan on looking at how a replacement airport would affect transportation links, marketing and other community aspects. And a market analysis is being conducted to determine if the replacement airport is financially feasible and where the money will come from to pay for it.

A study by the Federal Aviation Administration purports that a $120 million airport project could produce 1,274 jobs and several hundred more indirect jobs, said Baird. It would generate $30 million more annually than the existing airport. “We don’t know that the new airport will be a $20 million project,� he hastened to say.

Baird said two sites still remain in the run

I love deadlines. I like the wooshing sound they make as they fly by.

DS Design stuDio,

bergdahl.....from pg 1 Christmas well-wishes, this was the first class to write letters on his behalf and the first class she has visited, Bergdahl said.

Bergdahl spent nearly 40 minutes with the children, handing out plastic bracelets made up for Bowe and patiently answering questions.

Some of the questions were predictable—What was Bowe’s favorite color?

(Blue) What were his favorite sports?

(Sailing and motorcycling). But most centered around the Hailey soldier’s capture and hoped-for release.

“Is Bowe having a good time?” one child asked. “I don’t really think he’s having a good time,” Bergdahl’s mother responded, wincing a little.

Bergdahl said Bowe was named after Beaudry, a Texas ranger in a Louis L’Amour western. He grew up with Peruvian sheepherders and loved different cultures.

“So I think he probably has compassion for his captors,” Bergdahl said.

Bergdahl told the children that her son, born at St. Moritz Hospital in Sun Valley, joined the Army because he loved adventure—he had once ridden his bike down the coast to her parents’ home in Santa Barbara. But he also wanted to serve his country and see with his own eyes what was happening in Afghanistan.

“He was in the infantry because he wanted to look people in the eye. He wanted to know them,” she said.

Bergdahl told the children that she believes her son, now 24, was alone and perhaps going to the bathroom when he was captured on June 30, 2009. He’s probably being held in a home, rather than a prison.

His captors have asked for a million dollars and a trade for other prisoners.

“But if we gave money for Bowe, we’re afraid his captors will steal another soldier and want more money,” she said.

Trying to find him is like trying to find a needle in a haystack, she added.

“I think they still have soldiers looking for him. But it’s such a huge country—kind of like our desert, only bigger.”

Bergdahl told the children the sight of uniformed men showing up at her door to tell her of her son’s capture was very scary.

“To this day I think: Did this really happen? I thought at first that he would be found in a few days, then a few weeks, then a few months. I don’t think I would have been able to handle it had I known then that it would be over a year.”

Bergdahl added that she doesn’t have nightmares. “I don’t sleep well enough to have nightmares.”

Asked what she would do when Bowe comes home, Bergdahl wasted no time responding.

“I’m probably going to collapse in a heap and cry and cry,” she said, noting that her son has a pile of birthday and Christmas presents awaiting his return. “People have talked about throwing a big barbecue when that happens. Whether Beau will be able to attend—well, we’ll have to see where Beau is at.”

Bergdahl brought out family pictures mounted on posterboard that showed Bowe on skis and dressed up in cowboy outfit, pistols on his hips, to show them that he had enjoyed the same things they did as a youngster.

She also showed the children the motorcycle vest she had gotten on EBay to mount all the pins and patches various groups were giving her in honor of her son. She pointed out a POW/MIA badge.

“Some of the motorcyclists wearing these are big and they have tattoos and bald heads. But they are the kindest people in the world,” she said. “Inside they’re big soft men…like big teddy bears.”

Tracie Carlson, whose daughter Alyssa goes to Woodside, initiated the letter writing campaign after she met Bowe’s father Bob on his delivery route for UPS. “I have a sticker of Bowe on my bedroom mirror and my daughter’s seen that every day,” she said.

Fourth-grader Kennedy Watts said she was glad her class had had a chance to do something for Bergdahl.

“I wanted to do it because Bowe is a really nice person. I know because he danced with me at the Sun Valley Ballet School,” she said. “His family misses him and a lot of people want him back.” twp

ast week I mentioned Pueblo pottery and jazz as America’s unique by: BALI SZABO contributions to world culture.

True enough, but there’s a bigger picture. There’s one thing the world really loves about us. It cuts across all cultural, ethnic, income, religious and gender lines on all continents. We don’t even need any PR, spin, or sales pitches. People want it so desperately we’ve inadvertently created a global black market fueled by demand and various governments’ prohibitions. Democracy? Not even close. For over a century, we’ve done something consistently well, something that, arguably, harms no one.

And that thing is FUN. Play’s the thing. We’ve found/ invented more ways to have FUN than any culture in history. We work hard (much harder and longer than Europeans) and play hard. We create so many ways to amuse ourselves that it’s almost impossible to keep up with them all. Sports come to mind. Along with the major sports, there are a slew of minor ones, like snowboarding, paragliding, rollerskating, auto-based amusements like funny cars and monster trucks, extreme sports, and so on. Athletes like Michael Jordan are better known than Presidents, and longer remembered. Sports travel well.

Clothes with Made in USA labels, or branded, like Levis and Nike, T-shirts, all popular casual apparel come under the aegis FUN because they make life easier and confer status.

Convenient consumer discretionary products from Fritos to Band-Aids, toothpaste to hand cream, American branded, are great gifts and ice-breakers, and fuel the earnings of multi-national corporations.

This is a long list. American arts and entertainment, the glitz of Hollywood and TV, along

with its iconic personages, has conquered the world. Radio, pop music and language, CDs and DVDs are everywhere. Brangelina works better than Bunker Busters. There’s fast food. While Chef Bourdain and I prefer local street food, locals the world over have embraced McDonald’s Golden Arches. We invented the airplane and the automobile.

Small planes and great cars are still fun. We didn’t invent travel, but we did tourism with air travel. Tradition can be stiff, formal and learned, so we went casual.

Last, but not least, there’s the electronic mass media of the Internet, the iPad, and the BlackBerry. The world at our fingertips, on the go—interactive, no less. Games, sports, movies, music, shopping, gossip and news, all terrorizing governments who are losing their stranglehold on information.

I understand that many items on this list fall into the ‘for better or worse’ category.

Cigarettes, fast food and the destruction of traditional cultural diversity have huge downsides.

Still, we’ve conquered the world ten times over with joy, laughter and ease. I feel that’s who we really are. We shouldn’t lose sight twp of that.

athryn Graves has only just been named to the Blaine County School Board, replacing Mari Beth Matthews who relinquished her seat when she moved to California.

But Graves hit the ground running.

Town Hall Public She Meeting spent last The Blaine Counweek sitty School Board will ting in on a workshop hold a town hall meeting for the pubto deterlic from 6:30 to 8:30 mine how the district p.m. Nov. 8 at The Community Campus might in Hailey. improve The meeting will communifocus on ways the cation with school district can parents, better engage in a business two-way conversaand govtion with parents of ernment school children and leaders the public at large. and others.

Then she put feet to that mission, showing up at a WREP meeting where she told the valley’s business leaders involved in the Wood River Economic Partnership that there is a direct correlation between education and the school system.

When businesses and families eye the possibility of moving to a community, the school system plays a big role in their decision, Graves said. And the International Baccalaureate Program, which is being implemented this year at Wood River Middle School, will be instrumental in attracting people and businesses to the community, she predicted.

The program is designed to give students the intellectual personal, emotional and social skills they need to achieve success in a rapidly globalizing world.

A Michigan native, who moved to the Valley 13 years ago after receiving a history degree at the University of Montana, Graves has two sons in the seventh and ninth grades. She bikes with a women’s group when she finds time for herself.

Serving on the school board just seemed like the next natural step to being involved,” she said. twp

which she called the most challenging she’s ever done.

“Every actor wants to play one of these roles at some time in their career and most are not lucky enough to do that. This is part of what made me get into theater to begin with,” she said.

“Rosalind Russell once said that acting is standing up naked and turning around very slowly.

That’s what I have to do with this play—I have to be willing to show the audience what’s serious, what’s emotional for all of us. “ Martha goes from here to there in a snap of the finger. All over the human spectrum in a heartbeat. And that’s part of what makes this play so stimulating.”

Albee, known for going against the grain, foretold the collapse of the American dream with this play even as the Camelot of the Kennedy years

reigned around him, said Director K.O. Ogilvie.

“It’s a rich piece. Rich in that it’s oozing with subtext, references to the Cold War, stories within stories,” she said. “It’s a brilliant piece of writing and the characters are so rich. It broaches the idea of living an illusion not just in marriage but in one’s whole life.”

It also has stories within stories that keep audiences guessing at the little undercurrents of things, she added.

The play, which won the 1963 Tony Award for Best Play and the 1962-63 New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Play, was also selected for a 1963 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. But the advisory board objected to the play’s then-controversial use of profanity and sexual themes and overruled the jurors. As a result, no Pulitzer Prize was given for drama that year.

What: “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?”

When: Starts Thursday and runs Wednesdays through Saturdays thereafter through Oct. 30. The show starts at 7 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays, 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 3 p.m. for one Sunday, Oct. 24, matinee.

Where: Liberty Theatre in Hailey Tickets: $28 for adults, $20 for seniors 62 and older and $10 for students 18 and under. Educators and school administrators are eligible for two $10 tickets on Oct. 14 and 15. And Oct. 16 and 21 are the popular Girls Night Out with $18 tickets, $4 wine and beer, postshow champagne and chocolate, a chat with the cast, and a chance to win a goodie bag.

Ten front seat tickets are also available for $10 each on the night of each performance.

INFO: 208-578-9122 or go to www.companyoffools.org

Today the play would probably be rated PG 13 verging on R, said Ogilvie.

Still, the play is just as relevant today as then, said Arnold.

“By the time you reach a certain age, you’ve been hurt, you’ve experienced pain, you’ve been bitter and disillusioned.

People look back and say, ‘Where did life go?’ maybe now more than ever because so many more choices are available to us than there were then,” she said. “I think today audiences may get even more out of the play than they did in 1962 because they are more willing to go where Albee wants to take them. Earlier, they were so shocked I imagine many missed much of when was in it.” twp

Highlighting breed, talent

By BALI SZABO

A

cold, blustery morning greeted the early arrivals Saturday at the United States Border Collie Herding Association (USBCHA) professional dog trials in the alfalfa fields of Quigley. There were border collies everywhere—young ‘uns and vets (ages 2 to about 11) waiting their turn, which would last 11 minutes. The free-range sheep from Lava Lake Lamb were not compliant. First, they’re used to one dog per thousand sheep—not one dog per five. Way too much attention. Predator!

They weren’t used to dog handlers, or the 21-foot-wide gates they had to pass through, nor the audience. They were more like stubborn mules, hard to handle. These Suffolk crossbreds are especially suited to Idaho, consisting of hardy and excellent mothers. How difficult were they? Patrick Shannahan’s dog Riggs, the national champion, couldn’t pen the sheep, neither could the other 30 competitors

before him. It was a tough day; the scores were low—71 out of 100 ruled.

Every dog got another go on sunny Sunday. Border collies (non-AKC) are brilliant dogs, avid learners with a flawless work ethic, devoted, peaceful, capable of manic feats of concentration. This was all in evidence at the event. As of Sunday evening, two great handlers and their dogs, Don Helsley with Tag (from Caldwell) and Patrick Shannahan with Riggs, were tied for the lead.

This event is, first and foremost, about these great and dedicated dogs, fast and athletic.

It’s also about the uncooperative sheep. Over the weekend, not a single handler could get the sheep into the pen. Sheep, 100; dogs, 0. This is also about the handlers, the sponsors, local and national, as well as the audience, who should see this as a sporting event with its own drama. Much of what goes on in the field is a humorous mirror of human twp behavior.

ne-year-old Gracie Rocco added a new word to her vocabulary this weekend.

That would by: Karen be “baa-baaBossick baa.”

Gracie has a penchant for animal sounds like “Moo” and “Woof.” But the 14th annual Trailing of the Sheep Festival was her first opportunity to see a sheep up close and personal.

And she was quite taken, cozying up to the wooly buggers in her own little sheep outfit, which her mother had found online.

“She spent most of the weekend saying, ‘Baa, baa, baa.’ She even began giggling and saying ‘Baa baa’ as we put her down to sleep at night, as if she was remembering the events of the day,” said Gracie’s mother, Tamara Rocco of Ketchum.

Strutting mutton certainly had their moment in the spotlight from Friday through Sunday as record numbers of sightseers from all over the United States flocked to the three-day festival.

were among those who kicked off the weekend parading from restaurant to restaurant sampling free lamb tastings.

Tim Filgate, who has served as a private chef on a yacht, served up tasty lamb sliders mixed with mustard and other spices outside the nexStage Theatre. Warrick Phillips tantalized tasters with kebabs accented with a green Moroccan sauce at the Sawtooth Club.

And Steve Burk, the new chef at Cornerstone Bar and Grill, presented a plate worthy of the Food Channel as he served up a moist tender leg of lamb bites accompanied by pureed mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes.

“The festival was something different and we’ve never been here before. It’s a good time of the season to travel so we thought we’d give it a try,” said Heitzman.

Festival organizers were still crunching the numbers at press time. But it appeared the Trail-

ing had outdone itself in terms of spectators and participants.

The number of food and other vendors at Saturday’s Folklife Fair was nearly triple that of past years and the audiences that thronged through Roberta McKercher Park seemed to match those numbers.

Not only did a larger number of sheep—1,500-- march in Sunday’s parade. But the sheepdog trials had a record attendance and could grow into a three-day event next year, said Festival’s assistant director Heather Hamnmond.

“We oversold out of dog sponsorships and every item we had at the Trailing of the Sheep booth,” she said.

Volunteer Mardi Shepard said on Monday that she is already writing a check to help with next year’s festival.

“We are blessed to have such a unique festival highlighting the Wood River Valley, Idaho and the twp West,” she said.

Heart of a champion Jon rated this movie

priced diversion. With the death of her mother and father, Diane by: JONathan Lane is KANE left with the stewardship of her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s horse farm. The one asset is a foal that is won through a coin toss. Desperately in debt, Lane places her future on this foal â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which, of course, turns out to be Secretariat. The rest is history as the horse not only wins the Triple Crown, but does it in a fashion never before seen.

The direction by Randall Wallace does a workmanlike job and the racing scenes are captured in a thrilling manner. One special touch is that rather than the Preakness being filmed, we watch the actual television transmission â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a touch that truly makes you feel you are experiencing history. Besides Lane, John Malkovich offers a great supporting performance as the trainer, as both have to deal with sometimes clunky dialogue.

But the story shines through, as does this remarkable horse that captured a nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love and admiration. twp

movie review

S

ure, sports movies are rife with clichĂŠs. And sure, you know the ending of the story before it begins. But Walt Disney Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new film Secretariat delivers the goods and tells the rousing story of perhaps the greatest racehorse that ever lived.

Anyone that was alive to see the Belmont Stakes horse race in 1973 will never forget the sight of the big red horse winning racingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Triple Crown by a spectacular 31 lengths and in a record time that has never been matched. The power and grace of the animal captured the love and attention of a nation, in much the same way that another racehorse, Seabisquit, did decades earlier. This film will be most compared to the 2003 film Seabisquit and, although it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite match up, this family-friendly film more than holds its own.

Although itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible to top the true story of Seabisquit, Secretariatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s has enough twists and turns to make it compelling and far from the rote retelling of a rich family and their high-

Horoscopes: Sun and Mercury get cozy From our position on Earth, the sun and Mercury appear to be about as close as planets that are 36 million miles apart can be -- give or take a few million. In fact, they seem downright cozy now, like old friends meeting for cocktails in the luxury lounge of Libra, trying their darnedest to promote harmony, balance and justice for all.

The conjunction of these two celestial bodies will inspire effervescent communication all week.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still not totally sure about your next move, so donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make one! Keep writing down the ideas, talking, asking questions, researching and brainstorming. Let this phase play out for as long as it takes to form a plan you are 100 percent certain about and can really stand behind.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Go often to the one who is an endless source of positive energy. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a relationship that will sustain you through the highs and lows. This person will buoy you when you get tired, refuel you when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve used your resources and, most importantly, make you laugh at yourself when you get overly serious.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You have your own agenda. So if someone makes an unusual number of demands on you, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll likely react poorly, unless that person happens to be charming, beautiful and humorous. Then youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll gladly change your plans in order to do his or her bidding. As driven as you are, you also need to be entertained!

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Love has worked in different ways throughout your life. You were loved by someone else before you knew how to love yourself. Later, you loved yourself first and others followed suit. You continue to teach others how to treat you. This week, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be re-creating relationships and learning new ways to give and take.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have a strong sense about whom you should trust. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put your finger on the exact reason why one person seems credible and another does not. It has to do with micro-expressions you read and intangible things you just know.

You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be able to explain it, but do follow those instincts -- they are right on.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are always those around who are blessed with such outstanding abilities it almost doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem fair. But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t compare yourself to them or anyone else. What you have is pretty great and very workable. In fact, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ever need in order to succeed.

Find people to help you use your talent effectively.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Do not be too quick to judge situations this week.

Jumping to conclusions will prove unwise. People will surprise you. Loved ones who usually act one way will take an unexpected tone. And you have a couple of tricks up your sleeve, too. So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just best not to make any assumptions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). People who think they know quite a lot about a certain world will give you an earful of information. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll definitely learn something from what you hear, but you shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it as gospel. There are many ways to accomplish what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to do. Your way is as good as anyone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Follow through!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be working with one you know well this week. Though the two of you are mutually supportive and understanding, this relationship is still a lot of work. Knowing that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not all going to be easy will help prepare you for whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ahead. With the right attitude, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to turn a challenge into your next great victory.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Friends encourage you, but enemies motivate you like crazy. There are certain people who bring out your competitive edge and light a fire in your belly. You just want to show them once and for all how good you can really be. Channel the natural rivalry in a positive direction by letting it spur you to new heights.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Buckle down and get things done before you meet up with friends or begin doing your familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bidding. Neglecting your own work to focus on others might seem like a minor sacrifice now, but it will become a major issue later. Take care of all of your responsibilities first, especially the ones that have to do with only you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so intuitive now that you could have conflicts with the more logical-minded people you know. They just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe that you could make a decision without going through the same processes they go through. They might even make you think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re wrong.

Make it easy on yourself -- continue to follow your gut.

THIS WEEKâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BIRTHDAYS: Stellar opportunities are presented to you, most notably in the next 10 weeks.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll experience a financial spike in November and August. In December, loved ones inspire you to create and express yourself. Your personal life blossoms as you reach out to interesting people whose lives will be altered for the better by knowing you. twp

briefs Hunger Awareness

October is Hunger Awareness Month in Idaho. The Hunger Coalition hopes everyone will make an effort this October to get involved, support their neighbors in need, and help create a whole and healthy community.

Participating in Hunger Awareness Month is easy: Ask family and friends to Fast for Hunger on Wednesday, Oct. 21 by skipping a meal or fasting for the entire day. Donate the money you would have spent on food for one meal, or for a whole day, so that others may be better nourished.

To Your Health good advice from local practitioners

Properly aligning your bones

By JESSICA KISIEL

H

ave you noticed changes in your skeletal structure when looking in the mirror or viewing pictures of yourself? Rounded shoulders?

Increased or decreased arch in the lower back? One hip or shoulder higher than the other?

These postural changes may be due to loss of function in your muscles.

Remember mom’s words, “sit up straight!” Go ahead – adjust your body into a better position now. What changes did you make to achieve this enhanced posture? Did you increase the arch in your lower back to move the shoulders backwards without changing the curve in your upper back? Perhaps you leaned your upper body back behind your hips? If your rib cage remains perpendicular to the floor you likely achieved the posture using your muscles as designed. If your rib cage is pointing upward, there is a good chance you used a compensatory movement in your spine and pelvis to achieve your straightened posture.

Our brain, through the nervous system, directs the muscles to move the bones. If the muscles are too tight or weak, however, they will not be able to respond appropriately to perform the requested action and compensatory movements may occur. Additionally, the deep postural muscles are generally not under our conscious control. Changing the position of your vertebrae or the arrangement of how the upper arm bone is situated in the shoulder joint has a limited response to mental commands.

Form follows function! Good posture (form) is the result of a balanced skeleton. The position of the bones is dictated by the muscles that hold them.

To achieve a strong, aligned skeleton, the muscles must be at the correct length and tension performing the appropriate movements. When correct muscle function is gained, your form/posture will naturally improve.

Learn more about posture alignment therapy and how to improve your form and function at a free workshop tomorrow, Oct. 14, from noon to 1 p.m. at the Blaine County Fitness Centwp ter in Hailey.

Anne Jarosz, who will be kicking up her feet all week at Sun Valley Jazz ‘n’ Dixie Jazz Jamboree, shows one of the twin rosaries she’s made. Praying the rosary began as a parallel to the Psalms and was a way illiterate people could remember the Lord and His mother throughout the day, said Deborah Vila, of Ketchum.

Rosaries by Jarosz

By KAREN BOSSICK

A

nne Jarosz’s rosaries have found their way around the world—from Iraqi hospitals to St. Philomena’s Rosary Group in Punjab, Pakistan.

The part-time Sun Valley resident’s foray into twining started five years ago with a request from an Army chaplain.

The chaplain was trying to find twine rosaries for troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. Traditional metal ones could not be used, he said, because the metal shines.

Jarosz’s parish in Hinsdale, Ill.—St. Isaac Jogues--went to work making rosaries out of twine used by a Wisconsin firm that makes soccer and basketball nets.

They purchased 500-foot lengths of twine wrapped around spools. They “cut” pieces off by burning through the twine so it didn’t fray. And, when finished, they had hundreds of rosaries in variegated colors of dark and light blue, purple and pink and black and white.

“You just start with a knot, pull the rope through, then you pull and make a bead. You make 10 beads, then the ‘Our Father,’ which takes five turns around,” said Jarosz, who divides her time between Sun Valley, Hinsdale and Florida. “I took out more bad knots than I put in for awhile. But it’s a very relaxing thing to do.”

As word spread, people began requesting the rosaries for ministries to the poor in Uganda, a surgeon in the Philippines, even a Puerto Rican ghetto in Brooklyn.

Jarosz has supplied rosaries for the Hispanics parishioners at St. Charles Catholic Church in Hailey and she’s supplied them for Deborah Vila, a parishioner at Our Lady of the Snows Catholic Church in Ketchum. Vila takes hundreds each year to the sick seeking healing at Our Lady of Lourdes shrine in Lourdes, France, where Vila volunteers in the hospitality area.

Vila has been volunteering at

“There are so many beatiful stories about the people who receive them [the rosaries].

And the soldiers swear the rosaries have kept them safe.”

the Lourdes shrine, built on the site where a peasant girl named Bernadette Soubirous said she saw the Virgin Mary, since 1996.

Vila has taken as many as 40 pounds worth of rosaries with her to hand out to some of the 30,000 people who come through the hospitality area on a given Sunday.

“They’re so grateful and thankful and just amazed that people would give them something for free,” she said.

People on crutches in wheelchairs relish the rosaries, moving their fingers along the beads as they recite prayers.

Jarosz’s parish at Hinsdale have made more than 17,000 rosaries to date. A small group she started in Florida has made another couple thousand.

Jorosz often puts hers in baggies with instructions on how to pray the Rosary, along with biblical promises for healing.

“We don’t charge, but we’re happy to receive donations, which we use for buying twine,” she said. “There are so many beautiful stories about the people who receive them. And the soldiers swear the rosaries twp have kept them safe.”

ningâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;one north of Shoshone on U.S. 93 and the other between Moonstone Ranch and the Blaine County/Camas County line. Moonstone Mountain would dictate that the runway be on Highway 20 so the highway would have to be rerouted if that site is chosen, he said.

Meanwhile, Fly Sun Valley Alliance has dropped the cost of the new Access Sun Valley card from $150 to $99, said Project Manager Neil Morrow.

Money raised from the sale of the card will go to underwrite air service from Seattle and Los Angeles with the hopes of extending the shoulder seasons an extra week or two, he said. It could also be used to attract new air service from such cities as San Francisco and Denver.

Airlines require minimum revenue guarantees to ensure they will not lose money if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get enough passengers to break even. Up until now, Sun Valley Company has footed most of the bill by offering businesses the opportunity to purchase season passes that can be used by multiple employees.

Morrow said 51 businesses are offering Access Sun Valley cardholders discounts ranging from two-for-one memberships at Blaine County Fitness Center to 25 percent off dinners at such restaurants as The Roosevelt Grille and The Sawtooth Club and the Lodge Dining Roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sunday Brunch.

Morrow expects more businesses to come on board and added that promotions may change through the year.

The Alliance would like to sell a thousand cards its first year, expanding the number of purchasers in subsequent years. For more information, go to www. accesssunvalley.com WREP Director Doug Brown said WREP organized the gathering to allow a variety of organizations ranging from the Ketchum Community Development Corporation to Sustain Blaine to give updates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Often you read about one effort one week and another the next. But you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the cumulative effect of all thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a snapshot of all the things going on.â&#x20AC;? twp

The library will distribute the finished products through The Hospice of the Wood River Valley and The Advocates during the upcoming Christmas season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They can make one square or 10â&#x20AC;&#x201D;thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s up to them,â&#x20AC;? said Librarian Jeanie Johnston. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The idea is to give middle school or high school students an opportunity for community service. And we wanted to do something local so the kids could feel good about it.â&#x20AC;?

The library will hold an introductory session from 4 to 5:30 p.m. today, Wednesday, Oct. 13, during which Johnston will teach basic stitches.

Shayna Gelskey is among those who plan to â&#x20AC;&#x153;give a warm hug to those in needâ&#x20AC;? through a teen crocheting project.

Those who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s session are encouraged to give Johnston a call at 788-2036.

Supplies are free and will be available at the library or through Susan Boesch, the media librarian at the Wood

Alissa McGonigal will introduce students to the world of needle felting in a one-night creative workshop at the Sun Valley Center for the Arts from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., on Tuesday, Oct. 19.

An old-fashioned technique thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s becoming more popular with crafters, needle felting is a way to transform wool into shapes by poking it with barbed needles. Participants in the workshop will learn how to fashion dyed and natural wools into three-dimensional sculptures that can be any color, shape or size.

Each student will leave with a felted item made in the workshop as well with the inspiration to create more items.

A teacher by training and a passionate knitter, Alissa McGonigal opened The Loft, her combination yarn shop and art gallery in Hailey, after managing the outdoor Artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market in Hailey for a few years.

In addition to creating her own fiber art, she enjoys providing local artists with a venue to display and sell their work.

The Sun Valley Center for the Arts invites the public to a free panel discussion about the Big Wood River on Thursday, Oct. 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With a clean and clear river running through our valley, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t often think about issues of water quality, shortage and usage,â&#x20AC;? says Britt Udesen, The Centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Director of Education and Humanities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;However, as the community grows, our water resources are stretched further and further, and ideas about how best to use the river begin to conflict.â&#x20AC;?

The Center hopes to touch on many of these topics and start a dialogue with different stakeholders, from conservationists to developers. Confirmed speakers at the panel discussion are environmental scientist, Dr. Wendy Pabich; former Project Coordinator for the Wood River Land Trust, Kathryn Goldman; local rancher, Pete Van Der Meulen; and former director of the Idaho Department of Water Resources, Dr. David Tuthill.

The discussion will be held at The Center, Ketchum, starting at 6 p.m.

A

subject of controversy over the past 10-15 years has been the insurance industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version of â&#x20AC;&#x153;credit historyâ&#x20AC;? in their rating processes. It can still stir emotion although, much like insurance itself, it has become one of those â&#x20AC;&#x153;necessary evilsâ&#x20AC;? of life.

Why the â&#x20AC;&#x153;necessary,â&#x20AC;? you probably ask. Keeping in mind the product of insurance is one that is priced before the cost of goods is known, be sure any underwriter wants to be as precise in predicting the cost of goods as they can. If they could use only one measure as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;predictor of the future,â&#x20AC;? they would choose an insurance bureau score over a motor vehicle record every time.

Going back to 1956, Fair, Isaac & Co. was founded. Their game: predictive modelingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and they gained a foothold in the world of mortgage loans. It is commonly accepted in our world today that your mortgage loan rate is geared at least in part on your credit score.

Related to insurance, the studies generated in the early â&#x20AC;&#x2122;90s demonstrated two things. First, financial responsibility scores do not vary based on where you live. The percentage of population with acceptable scores holds, even comparing New York City to Long Island to the northern New York suburbs. The same thing was found comparing the minority areas of south Oakland to non-minority areas of Marin County (commonly thought of as the wealthiest county in the country).

Secondly, there is a strong correlation between insurance claim payments and insurance scores. For each dollar of

insurance charged, it was found that over $1.42 was paid out in claims for those with lowend scores. On the other end of the scale, those with high-end scores were costing only $.72 in claims payments. When the public screams for rates that are â&#x20AC;&#x153;fair,â&#x20AC;? this disparity had to be paid attention to. If you have no tickets or accidents on your record, should you pay the same for auto insurance as the person with three speeding tickets? In terms of risk, insurance bureau scoring is the same argument as far as insurance companies are concerned.

There are certainly individual exceptions. Unfortunately, classifying risk is a basic necessity in pricing the product. The closer you get to an individually-based rate, the closer you get to selfinsurance. The case was made that responsible credit managers are also responsible risk managers, and insurance bureau scores reflect credit management practices.

On the upside for any of you, no, an insurance bureau score is not the only risk factor they look at. Some companies place more emphasis on it than do others. But other factors can help mitigate a low-end score, such as a clean driving record, the type of car you drive and those other things we talked about last month. twp

By MARTY MILLER, BISNETT INSURANCE REP.

f youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been lucky enough to get out hiking lately, you may have noticed that the aspen have begun to change for fall. But you also may have noticed that trees on the same hillside can look quite different from one another â&#x20AC;&#x201C; some stands are still green, while others are already bright orange. Why is this?

Aspen, and all plants, are responding to changing cues, including day length, temperature, and water availability. Elevation and the direction a slope faces play a large role. This is where the answer lies for aspen. Assuming that the trees you are observing have similar aspect and slope, what may look like a stand of trees is quite likely one individual tree.

Aspens are strong asexual reproducers; much of their new tree production comes from â&#x20AC;&#x153;suckersâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; new stems (trees) that grow up from the root system of the existing tree. (This is what makes them either a wonderful or annoying tree to plant in your yard!) In fact, aspen is the largest living land organism on Earth, as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;treeâ&#x20AC;? can consist of thousands of stems. But all of those stems are one individual, and what happens to one happens to the others. This includes the transition to fall color. On your next fall hike, see if you can find examples of green aspen stands adjacent to pale yellow, adjacent to brilliant orange â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and get to know the individual aspens sharing your community!

Ask the Guys Dear Classified Guys, I'm in shock. I was reading the classifieds the other day when I stumbled across an ad in the business services section. A professional taxidermist was offering to mount your pet.

Cats, dogs and birds were his specialty. After I read the ad, I began to think about it in more detail. What kind of person would want to stuff their pet? I personally couldn't imagine having my Basset Hound, Barney, stuffed and standing by my sofa. Granted, he doesn't move that much now, but I still think it would be weird. After all, when your pet dies, isn't it time to just let them rest in peace? I think keeping them around in this way is morbid.

Why would someone want to put their loving pet through all that?

Cash: You have to love the

classifieds. You never know what you're going to find, even in the business services section.

Carry: First though, we need to correct you on something. In the world of taxidermy, professionals prefer the term "mounting", not "stuffing". Considering the amount of work and artistry

involved, using the term "stuffing" can be very insulting.

Cash: Today, taxidermy is more than just a mounted animal head hanging above the fireplace. Those who get involved in taxidermy, either as amateurs or professionals, spend a lot of time re-creating an animal to a lifelike state, much like you would see in museums.

Carry: That's likely the draw to some pet owners. Losing a beloved pet can be a very traumatic event.

And while mounting your pet may seem like an odd choice for you, others can find great comfort in it.

Cash: In fact, some of the most famous mountings are the animals of Roy Rogers. He had his legendary horse, Trigger, mounted along with his German Shepherd,

Bullet.

Carry: If you consider the alternatives, taxidermy seems like a logical choice for some. Many people don't live near a pet cemetery and dislike methods such as cremation. Others don't want to bury their pet in the yard just in case the family moves sometime in the future.

Cash: To those people, this idea may make perfect sense.

Taxidermists can place a pet in almost any position so it can be very comforting for an owner to see their pet in a restful manner.

Carry: I imagine if you ever did choose to mount your Basset Hound in his natural state, he wouldn't be standing, but more likely sleeping by the fire.

Roy Rogers rode his horse Trigger in every motion picture he filmed. When his beloved horse died in 1965 at the age of 33, Roy had him mounted. Trigger's hide was dried and stretched over a plaster likeness that rears on his hind legs. At a later date, Roy also had his pet German Shepherd, Bullet, and Dale Evan's horse, Buttermilk, mounted as well. They were all on display at the Roy Rogers/Dale Evans museum in Branson, Missouri, until it closed in 2009.

Reel It In

Nearly any fisherman would love to mount the "one that got away." However, unlike mounting other animals, fish have a unique problem. When their skin dries, it loses most of its color, leaving only patterns and scales.

That's why taxidermists need good artistry skills to repaint the entire fish from tip to tail and give it a natural look. So the next time you see a fish mounted on the wall, keep in mind that it is more a work of art than just a good catch.

Reader Humor Fishing for Truth

After my girlfriend Jennifer and I divorced our cheating husbands, we would get together once a month to catch up. At our most recent luncheon she told me about her new boyfriend and how he often takes weekend trips to go fly-fishing.

I told her that she better be careful since "fishing" was the excuse that both our husbands used when they went away and had affairs.

"I already thought of that," she conceded. "But I know he's honest because the last time he came home, he thanked me for packing his pajamas."

"Pajamas?" I questioned.

"How does that prove anything?"

She laughed and replied, "Because I packed them in his tackle box!"
