SolFest 2013 to Feature Pool Party

By Karen BoSSicK

Sun Valley puts its party face on this weekend when it stages SolFest 2013 Friday through

Sunday. This weekend of skiing, free mu-

sic, a street party and other events kicks off with a Welcome Deck Party from 4 to 7 p.m. Friday at Whis-key Jacques’ on Main Street, Ketchum.

At 7 p.m. Friday, the party moves to the parking lot across from

the 511 Building on Leadville Avenue for a 511 Rail Jam with music by DJ Train. Wanna-be rail jammers may register on site.

The day concludes with music by Paranoid Social Club at Whiskey Jacques’ beginning at 10 p.m. There is a $3 cover for students with ID.

On Saturday, skiers and snowboard-ers can take part in the A.P.R.E.S. skiing on Baldy—that is Advance Protocol for Ridiculous Endeavors in Sun Valley. Score points for complet-ing ridiculous scavenger hunt-type endeavors, such as skiing backwards all the way down Baldy, cooking bacon in the lift line, having a yard sale on the slop and skiing in Nordic gear all day.

A.P.R.E.S. will conclude with an après party from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Apple’s Bar and Grill at the base of the Warm Springs side of Baldy. Scores will be tallied at 5:30 p.m. and prizes, such as Smith goggles and sun-glasses and Scott USA gear, awarded for Most Points, Best Costumes, Best Team and Best Overall Performance.

River Run Lodge will feature Para-noid Social Club on the patio from 3 to 6 p.m. that day while Apple’s offers free music by El Stash during its après party.

The party will move to Main Street, Ketchum, at 7:30 p.m. for a SolFest Main Street Concert featuring Doc Rock and Pool Party, a San Diego band. It’s free and it’s for all ages.

“It’s electronic rock music, fun party music, great dancing music,” said Greg Randolph, who heads up Visit Sun Valley.

habitat for non-humanity

Story & PHoto By Bali SZaBo

We woke to a cloudless, warm morning, and

there were things to do. The surrounding slopes beckoned. After an hour-long discussion about where to go, a group of eight and two sherpas headed toward a steep slope. As soon as they crossed the valley and be-gan the ascent, the mountainside swallowed them up. Even with their bright clothes, they were barely visible. They were in for a long day. Like here in the West, the clear air at altitude deceives the eye—everything is farther than it looks, and larger than it looks. We would learn today that it was easy to bite off more than we could chew. The doc and I decided to chew on a magic brownie. Guide Jack Turner headed toward town to set up his view camera; the pretty, young blond Jill (on her honeymoon) headed up to a waterfall to do some sunbathing. The Jansses stayed in camp to read. I ended up having to help with lunch because the kitchen crew got too stoned on the ‘ganja cake.’

Those who opted to hike reasoned that exertion would help them to acclimatize. Wrong. Rest is best. The body makes its millions of adjustments quietly, much of it as we sleep. This rest day was strategically scheduled for that reason. We were adhering to the classic mountaineering adage—’climb high, sleep low.’ Once at altitude (12,000 feet plus), do not sleep more than 1500 feet above the previous night’s elevation. Next week I will discuss the subject of mountain sickness, acute high-altitude mountain sickness, acclimatization, physical fitness and the relation between them, if any. The threat of getting sick and not being able to continue was always in the back of our minds.

Done with lunch, I headed up the southern slope, past Jill’s waterfall where she was enjoy-

ing the sun in the buff, toward the glistening blue and white wall of ice that seemed so near I could just reach out and touch it. I was laughing at others for underes-timating their ‘little excursion,’ just as I was about to make the same mistake. Close up, the

slope became a complex jumble of eight-foot boulders, gullies and impenetrable shrub that demanded continual decision-making, route picking. I had to find my way up. Traverses were tough on the ankles. This kind of scrambling/bushwhacking takes time. No time to lounge in the sun and write poetry. The mountain fragmented into its component parts, and this was no cakewalk to the glacier. Fi-nally, after four hours, I reached the pebbled moraine, but the ice wall was no closer. My time was up. The clouds were moving up valley and there was no easy way down, and my ‘plan b’ was shaky.

The terrain of a mountain is the essence of hardness. The poetry of its light is its soft un-derbelly. That poetry was being written by the endless vista of snowcapped peaks increasingly veiled and revealed by the rising mists. This was my heaven, but I had to get back down to earth. I spent the next two hours either on my belly or butt, sliding down rock faces until I reached the lower pastures, which had paths to the valley floor. Two sherpas were posted and wait-ing for me at the bottom. It was getting dark. Dinner was just being served. The dinner tent was populated by tired eyes, bare hands hugging bowls of soup. The flush of achievement couldn’t overcome gaunt faces pocked with fatigue and vacant stares. We barely talked. There had been plans for a card game, some live music and dancing, but our exhaustion cancelled all of it. We headed for our sleeping bags. For some, this proved to be the toughest day of the entire trek. And it had looked so easy.

5b recycles

Gasoline is at an all-time high and, boy, could we use some help! It’s certain

that the obvious alternatives (ride your bike, walk, carpool, take the bus) flitted through your brain when gas first crested $3 per gallon, and for various reasons, mostly personal incon-venience, these solutions got crossed off your mental list. It’s time to trot them all out again, even if you just avoid your car one day a week. Here are some less obvious gas savers. We all know about the evils of idling, but have you graduated to turning off the key when sitting in the drive-up at the bank or when stuck in road construction? Parking the car and doing your errands on foot benefits your health and your gas bill. Ditch

the Christmas wreath on your grill and put away the car-top ski carrier as soon as the season is over: an aerodynamically streamlined car gets better mile-age. After a fill-up, twist the cap three clicks to limit evaporation of that liquid gold. Now check your personal habits. Attentive, patient drivers get the best mile-age because they avoid braking and accelerating in bursts. I’m talking about you tailgaters here, plus everyone who left work in a bad mood, and you cell phone chatterers. Distractions aren’t beneficial to gas mileage. Next week: more on the subject of bicycles.

Realistic Ways To Save On Gas

One thing we hear a lot at 5B Recycles is “it’s plastic, so I can recycle it,

right?” Well… yes and no. The county currently accepts HDPE, PETE, PP, and PPE plastics #1-5. Examples of plastics #1-5 are shampoo bottles, cottage cheese containers, bleach bottles or Pringles jars. Lids are accept-able, but need to be removed from the container. To find out what kind of plastic you have, flip the container over and look for the number in the middle of the small triangle. #1-5? Great! Let’s recycle it curbside or at a drop-off location. Not #1-5? Sorry, we need to throw it away. We can’t recycle items such as string cheese wrappers, clam-shell food containers, kiddie pools, or empty ballpoint pens. When these items are placed in the #1-5 plastic, it becomes contaminated and all the items may need to go in the landfill. Our staff does not have the time or manpower to sort through the items. What about plastic bags? Plastic bags ARE recyclable, and can be dropped off at collection

spots at Atkinsons’ Markets or Albertsons. Please don’t add them in with your plastic #1-5, as they clog up the recycling ma-chines. Plastic shipping bubble wrap and Styrofoam peanuts can be reused at the UPS stores in Ketchum and Hailey and at EZ Pack in Ketchum.

Story & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

Library donors got a sneak peak at the new Gold Mine Consignment Boutique

last week as the store opened for a soft sale and champagne reception.

The high-end fashion and furniture boutique at Walnut Avenue and Fourth Street across from The Community Library will open to the public on Friday. Hours are tentatively set for 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays.

Manager and creative design-er Dianne Perreyclear walked the first customers through the store, pointing out a Ralph Lau-ren tuxedo jacket that is now in vogue, along with colorful orange patterned shifts destined for those heading to the Caribbean, luggage designed to look vintage

and a Pendleton blanket.“There’s a nice little men’s

nook and lots of wonderful art,” she added, gesturing toward several art pieces.

Many of the items were brought over from The Gold Mine thrift store’s vast storage collection, she said. But library patrons may contribute their own items. Sales will be split 50-50 between the library and the consignee.

Perreyclear has been in the fashion business most of her life dating back to fashion model gigs in San Diego and stints locally at Panache and Gay Odmark’s Lotus Boutique. She also has taught at Hemingway Elementary School.

Prices at the boutique will generally range from $25 to a couple hundred, she said.

Once he had his feet on ground in Korea, Smith ate rice and more rice—rice for breakfast and rice for dinner.

He cheated, he said, using his hands to eat instead of the steel chopsticks athletes were given.

“If I didn’t cheat, I would’ve starved,” he said.

He attended the colorful open-ing and closing ceremonies and watched a hockey game, sympho-ny performance and a high-wire walker. He toured a temple and took pictures of skyscrapers from his hotel, which towered above those skyscrapers.

And, after a coach stressed

double poling, in one final practice, he took the technique to heart, double poling all the way down the hill leading into the stadium and double poling the last 400 meters around the stadium.

“He passed three other skiers along the way, double poling all the way,” said an impressed Coach Bregenzer. “I was stand-ing with another coach and I said, ‘Watch Jerry.’ And we stood there in awe. He was actually accelerating as he came around. It was an unbelievable sight that I will never forget.”

Smith can’t wait for summer

vacation so he can put his feet up and relax. “All the coaches keep me on my toes—they really work me,” he said.

But come next year he’ll be back on his skis and vying for another spot on Team USA.

He would recommend that others “work hard and be like I was.”

“I know cross-country ski-ing is very healthy, very good for you,” said Smith, who also makes a point of biking, walk-ing and mowing his and his neighbor’s lawn to stay in shape. “It keeps your brain good.”

Galena Trail Proposal is Back on the Table

Story & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

A little more than 50 miles of biking and hiking trails would be charted around

Galena Lodge under a proposal unveiled this week.

The trails—proposed by the Blaine County Recreation District—would transform an area that currently has few recreational opportunities for its increasing number of summer visitors.

“Galena has some of the best Nordic trails in the West. This would give it world-class sum-mer trails,” said Steve Haims, of Hailey.

Sawtooth National Recreation Area Ranger Joby Timm intro-duced the proposal to build 37.5 miles of new trails and adopt 14.1 miles of existing non-system routes into the Forest Service trail system to create a 51.6-mile non-motorized trail network.

The project would also im-prove and expand the Galena Lodge parking lot to serve as a hiker-biker trailhead and develop a horse trailhead across Highway 75 from the lodge.

An alternative is also being considered that would construct

17.8 miles of new trails and uti-lize 14.7 miles of existing routes as single-track trails to create a 32.5-mile non-motorized trail network.

The proposals were drawn up following public feedback concerning a proposal for 60 miles of trail network that was unveiled last summer.

Timm said the proposed trail network would be geared toward beginner and intermediate trail users.

“We have 750 miles of trails in the SNRA, but the majority are for advanced bike riders. We don’t have a lot of beginner or intermediate trails,” said Timm. “We think this project will greatly enhance the trail-based recreation opportunities on the Sawtooth NRA and be a help to the local economy at the same time.”

Developers envision a small skills area near the lodge that would feature log pyramids, rock obstacles, ladder bridges and other challenges designed to appeal to the increasing number of summer camps and mountain bike clinics at Galena.

Interpretive signs reflect-ing the area’s mining history,

botany, mountains and wildlife would be placed along some of the trails.

Ketchum bicyclist Marc Driver says he wishes the trails could be built in time for this summer.

“It’s a terrific idea that will revitalize Galena in the sum-mer,” he said. “And for some of us old codgers, the trails around here are a bit of a struggle, so it’s nice to have trails that won’t be so difficult.”

Rich Bingham, of Ketchum, agreed. “This is awesome,” he said. “I think this will be a great asset.”

You can read the Review En-vironmental Assessment online on the Swtooth National Forest Website at http://data.ecosystem-management.org/nepaweb/nepa_project_exp.php?project=39782 or request a hard copy of the document by contacting Ed Can-nady at [email protected], or 208-727-5004.

Rangers would like to receive comments by April 22, 2013 at Sawtooth National Recreation Area, Attention: Galena Sum-mer Trails Project, 5 North Fork Canyon Road, Ketchum, ID 83340.

galena lodge still boasts a bounty of snow, despite the warm temperatures of the past two months. But come summer, its trails could get a makeover turning it into a mountain biking and hiking paradise.

CRuISInG DOLLaR’S TeRRaIn PaRkStory & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

The day started with Mickey Mouse pancakes at Carol’s Dollar Mountain Lodge—

two big fluffy pancakes shaped like the world’s most famous ro-dent with beady little eyes made of chocolate chips.

But 6-year-old Calder Baty took little more than a bite. There was no time for Mickey-Mousing around when he had a giant playground filled with rails and boxes awaiting him outside.

“When I jump I feel like I’m flying. I have adventures every time,” said the Sun Valley boy, who is one of hundreds of youth who stake their claim to Sun Valley’s Dollar Mountain Ter-rain Park each weekend.

The 6,638-foot treeless Dollar Mountain with its 628 verti-cal feet of skiing has a storied history, serving as one of Sun Valley’s first ski hills back in the day when many thought Baldy was too steep for the average skier.

Hollywood stars like Gary Cooper skied here. Picabo Street won her first race here.

As high-speed quads began lining Bald Mountain, Dollar took on a role as a beginner’s hill. It’s still the place to learn to ski.

But in the past few years it’s been made over with banked slalom courses, giant jumps sculpted by man and snow ma-chine, a couple of skier/boarder-cross courses, including an Olympic-sized skier course, and some 75 rails, boxes and barrels, including one shaped like a roller coaster.

And this year terrain park managers built a 22-foot-long superpipe with the help of more than 8 million gallons of water turned into snow and the Zaugg Pipe Monster—the largest pipe groomer in existence—designed

by aeronautical engineers.The pipe is one of only three

pipes in the nation designed to meet specifications for Olympic hopefuls.

All of these attractions have made Dollar Mountain a hopping place.

Freestylers with twin-tipped skis ride the smooth cylindrical walls of the superpipe, hopping out like grasshoppers from time to time as they grab their tips and spin 360 degrees in the air.

Snowboarders cruise down the banked slalom courses carving their way around the banked turns.

Others sail off a ramp of snow onto several recycled oil barrels that have been painted with Sun Valley’s logo in blue and yellow.

At 6, Baty is fast enough to have the makings of a downhill racer, says his ski instructor Jani Sutherland, a children’s specialist for Sun Valley Resort.

“He started skiing at 3 and he didn’t want to turn—he wanted to go fast,” she said.

But any notion of going straight takes a detour if he spots something he can jump. He especially loves the off-piste trails that run through the woods on the skier’s right of Lower River Run, catching air as he sails back onto the groomed run below.

Given his zest for bumps, the boy began coaxing Sutherland to teach him how to ski the boxes and rails on Dollar when he was 4. Last year he began skiing in the superpipe, providing plenty of film fodder for his parents, Stan and Kristine.

Sutherland started him out in The Progression Park, an area set off to the side of Dollar Mountain that sports a tiny snow ridge on which he could learn to slide sideways. Tiny snow ramps teach people to catch air on jumps.

“When I started skiing, we made our own jumps,” said Sutherland, who has been teaching skiing for 39 years. “But when Sun Valley started building this terrain park, I learned to do boxes, I learned how to turn. It’s one thing to go straight over a jump and another to turn sideways as you go. It’s a different feeling because you have to have that flat ski or you’ll get caught on your edges. When that happens, you feel like someone’s pulling you off. Sometimes you land on your feet; sometimes, on your tush.”

When she felt he had the skills, Sutherland took Baty to some of the intermediate fea-tures on the mountain.

“Keep your hands in front and your body forward,” she reminds Baty as he points his skis toward a ramp of snow leading onto a box. “You’ll get more air than if you’re in the back seat. And you need some speed to clear the box.”

Baty sails up the small ramp and does a 90-degree spin in the air, which allows him to slide sideways across the box. His body is centered over the balls of his feet, his skis are shoulder-width apart, his eyes are focused on the end of the rail.

He does another 90-degree spin as he jumps off the box and heads toward a rail.

That rail cleared, he and Sutherland catch a chair and head back up hill. This time he heads for the easier of two skier/boarder-cross courses, repeat-edly veering off the cat track as he makes his way to the course to catch a few bumps.

Baty stands in one of the gates at the top of the cross course, watching as an older skier catches big air on one of the jumps. Then, as if some make-believe buzzer has sounded to herald the start of a race, he’s off. He skims around one corner. His pint-sized body bobs up and down as he heads over some roll-ers. Then he catches a foot of air on a jump.

A grin spreading across his face, he catches the chair again. Once at the top, he heads this time for the superpipe. A couple of older skiers duck into the half-cylinder and begin making sweeping turns up its smooth walls, flying above the rim where they grab their skis with their hands.

Baty follows suit, not clearing

the rim but getting higher on the wall with each sweeping turn.

“He’s a visual learner,” Suther-land said. “He sees other kids doing things and he copies. He’s a natural. He loves to jump.”

Some group lessons take stu-dents through parts of the pro-gression park if the instructors feel the students have the skills, said Aaron Fabish, a Sun Valley Snowsports supervisor. Occa-sionally, entire families request Terrain Park 101 instruction as part of a private lesson called A Family Affair.

One of the best ways to learn is with one-on-one instruction, Fabish said.

Foster Wows CrowdStory & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

Fear of cats. Martians. Film directors who won’t come out of the bathroom…

Jodie Foster didn’t seem to let any topic go untouched Sunday morning during a lively give and take with a full house at the nexStage Theater in Ketchum.

Foster, a frequent visitor to Sun Valley, presented a 15-min-ute look at her life as an actor and director during a free Coffee Talk organized by the second an-nual Sun Valley Film Festival. Then she fielded questions for 45 more minutes.

One observer said she learned as many lessons listening to Foster as she would’ve learned in Sunday School that morning.

No matter how much you know about cameras and lenses, the most important thing you contribute to the filmmaking process is your inner life, the Academy Award-winning actress told the audience.

“You need to download your life story,” she said, stressing the need to be authentic. “If I made a movie about Martians, those Martians would probably have issues with their mother,” quipped Foster, whose mother managed her career.

Foster described an experience she had as a child in which a ti-ger grabbed her. All of a sudden, she said, she saw the film crew running the other direction and the trainer was shouting at the tiger, “Drop it!”

She rolled down an incline whereupon the tiger then swat-ted her with its giant paw.

“The good news is I’m fine, save for a few tiny scars,” she said. “My mom likened it to get-ting bucked off a horse. ‘You’ve got to get back on,’ she said. I made the movie but I still have a small fear of cats!”

Foster said she doesn’t think of herself as being a big movie star but, rather, an actor who has made some successful mov-ies.

Her favorite movie, she said, is “The Silence of the Lambs,” about a cannibalistic serial killer. It was incredibly hard to make, she said—something akin to performing emergency surgery.

“It was not so fun while we were doing it, but we can look back at the end of the day and say, ‘What a great thing we did,’” she added. “It’s a movie I hope people will want to remember. It’s a movie about death, dying, cruelty… but there is a shining light of goodness.”

One of the most difficult films she ever made was “Panic Room,” in which she portrayed a mother who was imprisoned in the panic room of her house by three criminals.

She was six months pregnant when she made the film, and the director David Fincher was a perfectionist, which sometimes meant doing a hundred takes, she said.

“It’s the longest shoot I’ve ever done in my life—110 days,” she said. There was no light in the house, no furniture, it was basi-cally a box. How can you shoot 110 days in a box?!”

While she loves acting, Foster said she loves directing more because it requires the use of the brain. When acting, she added, you spend a lot of time suppress-ing your intellect.

One youngster asked her if she has nightmares about any of her movies.

“No, but I have dreams,” acknowledged Foster, who was honored with the Golden Globe Awards’ Lifetime Achievement Award earlier this year.

“Even though I’m pretending, I’m still carrying that with me. It influences, impacts me, the rest of my life,” she said. “Inter-estingly, the characters I have played didn’t know they had

survival skills. But they found in themselves a way to survive…”

fOsTer sOUNDbiTesMy heart goes out to young

actors who are (struggling with not having a normal childhood). They can’t be just who they are because someone is watching. …Now I think about who I might have been. I’m not mad about it but I’m not challenged about it anymore.

(Aspiring actors and filmmak-ers) don’t say we’re dying to hold a boom in our hands. We want to be part of a great story.

Life is like a 2-by-4. We can build a building or hit someone over the head.

When I was little, I thought I was just saying words somebody else wrote and that it was a dumb job. I learned I wanted to be an actor many years later in my 20s.

I think ‘Taxi Driver’ is one of the best American movies ever made. It’s a reflection of who we were in the 1970s.

I usually have a good attitude and am easy to work with, but sometimes I become the devil. The thing that sets me off is di-rectors who don’t plan, who don’t have an idea what they’re doing, who waste everybody else’s time.

A director is a mother/father figure. And, as an actor, I’m there to serve him. That’s my job.

Actors are weird and each one needs attention. My relationship with an actor as a director is to be a parent. I tell them: The train is leaving at 8:14—I need you to be on that train…

When actors offer dumb ideas about how to do things, I say: Let me think about that. That way, they’ve saved face. You’ve heard them but you haven’t shut them down. I want actors to give me all of their ideas because one out of 15 might be good. If I shut them down I don’t get that one good idea.

One of the biggest mistakes directors make is thinking they’ve got a movie down pat in their hotel room. You can’t make a film in your hotel room. You’ve got 175 people, each who brings little bit of themselves and their mothers and fathers to the process. But no, these directors say, ‘Well, it worked perfectly in my hotel room...’

The second people lose respect for a director, the film is over. It’s like being president of a country and everybody realizes you’re a dumb ass. Total anarchy. If the director is in the bathroom the whole movie and won’t come out, somebody has to direct the movie—and give the director the credit.

Jodie Foster said she makes movies about people who are trying to reach out to communicate but can’t. i’m at-tracted to stories of loneliness and the beauty and curse of being solitary.

Story & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

Longtime Sun Valley resi-dents can spin all kinds of stories about trapshooting

with Ernest Hemingway, fly-fishing with son Jack, going to school with Mariel Hemingway.

Thursday night many saw a different take on the Hemingway family than the one they thought they knew as Mariel Hemingway showed her new film, “Running From Crazy,” at the Sun Valley Opera House.

By the time I arrived, my par-ents were tired, said Mariel, who described herself as a mistake. Her older sister Muffet was in and out of hospitals and older sister Margot, who later became known as Margaux, was a wild child who even skied drunk.

Her father? Well, he never talked about his father at all—“ever, ever, ever.” And her mother suffered from cancer.

“I was embarrassed by my sister’s behavior. She had no self-control. For me, control was everything,” Hemingway said.

But, she added, “When I was growing up in the 1970s and ’80s, (mental illness) was not something you talked about. No one realized Muffet was mentally ill—she was just off someplace.”

The film shows some of the steps Mariel has taken to live life to the fullest and evade what seems to be a suicide curse that plagues her family. Those steps include newfound activities such as rock climbing and doing back flips on a trampoline.

It also shows her efforts to help with suicide prevention efforts across the country and to counsel daughters Dree and Langley.

The film features some great home movie footage that direc-tor Barbara Kopple found at Minnesota’s WPA Film Library, a leading source of stock footage.

“Mariel would tell me stories about her mom sitting on the kitchen counter each afternoon during wine time and (when I found this footage) I knew she was telling me something so real,” said Kopple.

Even Mariel had never seen the footage.

“It was a mindblower for me because I thought maybe I was imagining my childhood. I couldn’t believe that my mom had painted the kitchen these weird colors. And my daughter Langley had never seen her grandmother at all,” she told the sold-out audience.

The film was championed by St. Luke’s Wood River Medical Center, which hopes to launch an outpatient mental health clinic in its Hailey Clinic this fall.

“It hits home for us—Idaho ranks 50th in the country in access to psychiatric provid-ers,” noted Cody Langbehn, the hospital’s CEO. The outpatient program will be available to ev-eryone regardless of their ability to pay, he added.

Kopple acknowledged that she

and Mariel “had to take some deep breaths to bring the film to Sun Valley because we knew you were all so close to (the Heming-ways).”

But, she added, Hemingway made the movie to help end the taboo of mental illness and, hopefully, help prevent suicide.

“The reason she’s telling the story is for the future of her children, the community… none of us can fight this battle alone,” said Kopple.

Some in the audience were stunned at Hemingway’s al-legations of sexual impropriety between her father and her two older sisters.

Hemingway said she believed her father did what he did while drunk—he may not have even remembered what he did. Includ-ing the admission in the film was a risk, she added, “because he was a wonderful man.” But, she added, she thought she had to be honest and lay everything on the line if she was going to make the movie.

“I didn’t want to tell every-thing in a reality-show nasty way because I love my family even though I was conflicted by them,” she added.

Nicola Potts’ Coffee Grinder was featured in the film because of a show of Muffet Hemingway’s art she’d hosted last spring. She’d kept up with the progress of the film, encouraging Barbara Kopple that she could trim it from five, then four hours. But finally seeing it proved an eye-opener.

“I had no idea (Mariel) was in such pain,” she said.

“It was hard to watch. It tugged at your heartstrings,” added Ketchum pediatrician Dr. Bart Adrian.

Mariel said she hopes the film leads to people speaking out more about mental illness and suicide and to more people get-ting the help they need.

“I wanted to break it open and say: this doesn’t have to be yours. We can move on from it,” she said.

Hemingway added that the film validates that the things she is doing to escape the family curse of suicide is working. Part of that includes getting out in nature.

“Idaho is always that rock to come back to,” she said.

besT Of THe fesTMariel Hemingway’s film

“Running From Crazy” went on to be one of three films chosen as “Best of the Fest” based on at-tendance and audience feedback.

As a result, it was shown in an encore performance Sunday at The Liberty Theatre in Hailey.

Also winning Best of the Fest: “Starlet,” which featured Hemingway’s daughter Dree as an aspiring actress who be-friends an elderly widow. And “Kon-Tiki,” the dramatization of Norwegian adventurer Thor Heyerdahl’s expedition across the Pacific Ocean on a raft.

Hemingway Seeks to end Taboo on Mental Illness

mariel Hemingway and her partner Bobby Williams have launched a new book on seizing your life called “the Willing Way: Stepping into the life you’re meant to live.”

Jaide Parke’s Hoop DreamsBy JonatHan Kane

Jaide Parke, a 4.0 senior at Carey High School, has two great passions in

life besides excelling academi-cally – basketball and singing. Her love of basketball began at her earliest age. “I can’t remember when I wasn’t pas-sionate about it,” she said. “It probably started in the first grade but of course I couldn’t reach the basket for a long time.” Her position is point guard which is also known as being the floor general. “I really like that I can control the flow and I also thrive on the stress and pressure of the situation. I can see the whole court and that’s what makes it fun. From third to sixth grade I played Rec ball and that’s when I really fell in love with playing. Of course it didn’t hurt that my father was the coach. From there I played junior high and now high school. This year we didn’t do quite as well as we had hoped but we were the first district champi-ons in Carey history.” The girls play in 1A Division 2 against schools like Dietrich and Richfield. “What I like most about basketball is the team aspect. Everyone works together and knows their part. There is also the fact that the crowd goes crazy and that there is a lot on the line.”

Parke also loves singing, which she has also has been doing “for as long as I can remember.” She added, “My family is very musical. We all sing and play instruments. It’s just a part of who we are. My favorite memories from childhood are of all of us sitting around and playing music.” Parke currently sings in Legacy, which combines the school’s choir and jazz band. “My favorite thing to sing is pop songs and my favorites are He Is We, Carey Under-wood and Kelly Clarkson. I’m a diehard country music fan. Coming from a small, country farming community, you can really relate to it. I also really like performing. Of course, you get nervous but it’s also a great rush. Also, all your feelings and emotions can be expressed. If you’re sad, there is a song for that, or likewise if you are happy.”

Parke moved to Carey when she was one year old; her dad is a chiropractor in Hailey. Carey has a population of 604 people and the high school has 60 students – 13 of them seniors. “Most of us have been together a long time. We love how close we are and it’s so nice that we are all best friends. Graduation is going to be very tough for us. Living

in Carey is wonderful. Everyone knows everyone and if something happens everyone knows about it in ten minutes, which I think is a good thing. It’s also great that my whole family lives here. My dad grew up here and all his brothers and sisters and parents live in Carey and also grew up here. We’re all within a mile of each other and we get together and see each other all the time. There’s not always a ton to do in Carey, but we get together and be creative and have a lot of fun.” You can be sure that this creative young woman will have a bright future ahead.

nearly 70 students participated in the fourth annual Hailey elementary Science Fair this year. each student received a medal for participating as well as some constructive comments from faculty and parent “judges.” twenty students from kindergarten though fifth grade received trophies for “outstanding achievement.”

the event was well attended, with community and school board mem-bers viewing projects featuring ev-erything from the classic volcano to a mock forest fire and a bridge support-ed by eggshells. “Hands-on” projects allowed visitors to build an arch with

sugar cubes and pass a static charge along a chain of human hands.

\Some students took on provoca-tive questions like, “Why don’t pets get sick from humans?” and “How does Zylitol compare with cane sugar when used for baking?” while others explored scientific phenomena such as sublimation and lie-detection. a pair of young scientists even trained their pet goldfish to know when it was dinnertime! the science fair was orga-nized by the Hailey Pta, who wishes to thank the teachers and parents for helping to make the 2013 event the best yet.

$5,100 was allotted by Papoose club members this month to four local organizations benefitting the Wood river Valley’s youth.

the Boy Scouts from various local troops received monies to assist in the cost of getting four local committed scouts to the Boy Scout national Jam-boree in Virginia this summer.

the WrHS model un club received funds to defray the costs of high school students who participated in the three-day Berkeley model united nations event.

the Senior Bash, organized by the Wood river High School Pta, was

awarded funds toward the entertain-ment for this year’s event. the drug- and alcohol-free post-graduation party is shaping up to be an amazing night of entertainment that should be a great reward for the hard work of our graduating class.

the Sawtooth Botanical garden was granted money to subsidize the upgrading of equipment and purchase of models for the Bug Zoo, a tradition introducing over 1,000 school-aged children to the insect kingdom.

carbonate hill offers a great climb for beginners and experienced hikers, so if you like it steep, or simple, you’ll be happy to know there are many trails that lead up to the top.

Story & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

Looking for ideas to enjoy spring break without a lot of wampum?

It’s not that difficult, even in tony Sun Valley.

Here are 20 things to do for $20 or less:

Bag a peak—no ice axe necessary. Carbonate Mountain is clear to the top—it’s just over a mile straight up—just over two if you follow the switchbacks. You’ll get an elevation gain of 1,300 feet. That’s 50 feet taller than the Empire State Building! To get to the trailhead, head west on Bullion Street in Hailey and park in the parking lot just beyond the Big Wood River.

The snow may be melting in the Wood River Valley, but there’s still plenty of that white

gold in the hills north of town. Check out a pair of snowshoes from The Elephant’s Perch for $15 or Galena Lodge for $18. Then, take a free snowshoe hike with the ranger at 11 a.m. Thursdays at Galena Lodge. (208-726-4010).

Stop reining in your vocal chords in the shower. Come out from behind that shower curtain and unleash them for the world to hear. Whiskey Jacques’ on Main Street, Ketchum, has a karaoke night just waiting for someone with your talents! It starts at 9:30 tonight and there’s no cover charge.

Don’t ski? No problem. You can still do après-ski in the afternoons on the patio outside Sun Valley’s River Run Lodge.

Get ready for tales of angst set among soaring music numbers this coming

week.The Sun Valley Opera is

presenting back-to-back screen-ings of the Broadway musicals “Rent” and “Memphis” at The Community Library in Ketchum this week.

“Rent” is based on “La Bo-héme,” which was staged last month at the Wood River High School Performing Arts The-ater. It will be shown at 6 p.m. Tuesday.

The rock musical tells the story of a group of impoverished artists and musicians struggling to survive in New York’s Lower East Side as HIV/AIDS casts its specter over Bohemian City. It won a Tony Award for Best Musi-

cal, among other awards.“Memphis,” which won the

2010 Tony Award for Best Musical, will be shown at 6 p.m. Wednesday, March 27. The musical features dancing, songs and a tale of fame and forbidden love in the underground dance clubs of the 1950s. Based on actual events, it’s about a white radio DJ who wants to change the world and a black club singer who is ready for her big break.

This is the second year the Sun Valley Opera has worked with The Community Library to present such screenings.

“Musicals for a number of people are a gateway to opera,” said Opera co-founder Frank Meyer. “Some try opera after seeing musicals. The similarity is that they both have a story, an orchestra, singing actors and sets.”

It was a Red Letter Day as the Vamps women’s Nordic

program celebrated the end of their season at the Sun Valley Nordic Center last week. It couldn’t have come any later, as the Nordic Center had to close the following day due to warm tempera-tures that turned its scantily clad tracks into mushy puddles.

As it was, the 100-plus women in the program celebrated the day skiing the corn snow beyond the tracks.

Jo Ann Levy, Josie Arias and Jan Wygle were decked out in all their finery, while Joney Otteson turned out in her Birkebeiner T-shirt. It was also a perfectly fine day for the three Red Hot Devils, tank tops and sun hats for the likes of Kim Disbrow.

Reflecting on easter

The Good Man Jesus and the Scoundrel Christ

by Phillip Pullman; Hardback 245 pages, 2010

By margot Van Horn

Phillip Pullman recently came out with a new book, “Fairy Tales from

the Brothers Grimm: A New English Version,” which I am sure is good—4 1/2 stars by Amazon—so I will be reading that in short order. However, for now, because I have not had an occasion to encounter any literature by this author, I was fascinated by the title of this book. So I picked it up from The Community Library and read it. It is part of the Myths Series. In case you don’t know about this series, they “bring together some of the world’s finest writers, each of whom has retold a myth in a contemporary and memorable way.” Pullman deals a lot with the retelling of tales, except maybe for his Dark Materials and Lockhart Mystery series. He also has won many awards and lives in Oxford, England.

I thought that this book would be a good subject for my Easter time Read It column because it deals with the birth, life and death of Jesus in a very in-novative and creative manner. Pretend, or better yet imagine, for a moment that Mary had twins—yes, indeed; one baby was very healthy and so named Jesus while the other one, not quite as healthy and very needy, Mary named Christ, which is Greek for Messiah. Thereby, with this beginning presump-tion, the story goes on—much of it retold accurately from the Bible and some, of course, by pure imagination. The chapters are short, the prose beautifully conceived and written. I read it in one sitting. Then I had to think a lot.

So to confound for a minute your Easter enjoyment, I offer this very wonderful book.

You may already have run into this yummy truffle recipe; however, it

escaped my attention until I was introduced to it just recently at a party. It was so delicious that my willpower with regard to sweet temptations broke down. But I wondered what made them so good. When I asked Linda, who had made them, she said that they were deceptively easy to make. So, lo and behold, I found the recipe on the Internet. True enough, they are a breeze to make—even for kids, with parental help. You all know how I love to share a good thing, so here is the recipe I found and made. I also thought that one could actually form the shapes to look a bit like an Easter egg and sprinkle them with some bright and fun sparkling sugar bits. So give that a try—and enjoy.

A-Breeze-To-Make OREO Truffle Eggs Especially for Easter - Makes around 40-45

Ingredients:• One 16-oz. package OREO

Chocolate Sandwich Cookies• One 8-oz. package Philadel-

phia Cream Cheese, softened, or one 8-oz. carton whipped cream cheese.

• Two 8-oz. packages Baker’s Semi-Sweet Chocolate, melted per the package directions, or the following: place the opened chocolate in a microwavable bowl; turn the microwave on to medium for about 2 minutes, then stir and continue micro-waving on medium for 30 to 60 seconds, stirring intermittently until the chocolate is melted. For very professional looking exteriors, the chocolate should be tempered, which takes longer. (For tempering instructions look on the ’net or in a cookbook.)

Instructions:Crush the cookies to fine

crumbs in a food processor; reserve 1/4 C. for later use. Place the larger portion of crumbs in a medium-sized bowl. (If you don’t have a food processor, try put-ting the cookies in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin.)

Add the cream cheese and mix until well blended. (I did this with my hands.)

Hand roll the cookie mixture in 40 balls or, if for Easter, into egg shapes. The balls should be about 1 inch in diameter just to give you a general idea of the appropriate size.

Dip balls/eggs in the melted chocolate; place on a wax or parchment-papered baking sheet. To easily coat the truffles with the melted chocolate, add truffles, in batches, to bowl of melted chocolate. Use two forks to roll the truffles in the chocolate until evenly coated. Remove the truffles with the forks, letting any excess choco-late drip back in the bowl. Place truffles on your paper-prepared baking sheet. If you have any leftover chocolate, store that in the refrigerator for some other later use.

If you wish, sprinkle the balls with the reserved crumbs or, for Easter, some colorful sprinkles.

Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.

I dare you not to eat them all immediately. However, if you are that strong of will and constitu-tion, store in tightly covered contained in the refrigerator. Upon serving, don’t plan on any leftovers.

Rainbow Day at HemingwayStory & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

Volunteers whipped up a rainbow of fresh berries and other fruit last week

as Hemingway Elementary School students headed out to recess last week.

Heidi Mickelson, Laura Curd and others formed an assembly line, plopping berries and yogurt into blenders, then pouring the finished smoothies out in little cups which they handed to the students.

“I like Rainbow Day,” en-thused student Jackson Bevers. “I’ve learned that you should eat a rainbow of fruits and veg-etables every day. And I learned that you find the colors of the rainbow only in plant foods.”

Rainbow Day is part of an on-going campaign by a non-profit organization called Nurture to teach Wood River Valley children about healthy eating choices.

In addition to the smooth-ies, cafeteria workers prepared a rainbow of variously colored vegetable choices for lunch, handing out stickers to students who loaded up on at least three different colored vegetables.

And Amy Schlatter, Nurture’s program coordinator, went into classrooms, using games and flash cards to teach students about the value of eating at least five fresh fruits and vegetables a day.

“A serving fits in the palm of your hand—it’s really not that much so it’s not hard to get five servings a day. But 90 percent of Americans do not eat five serv-ings a day,” she said.

Schlatter said the program gives the kids time to talk about diet and nutrition—“they have a lot of questions.”

“The idea is to get kids excited about eating fruits and vegetables and to show the kids that nutrition is all about variety,” said Kathleen McCabe. “It doesn’t have to be just about broccoli.”

Rainbow Day was part of the Nuture Elementary Nutrition and Wellness Program, which Kathryn Guylay helped develop in Chicago.

Guylay introduced the pro-gram to The Community School in Sun Valley last year. She took it to the public schools this year, introducing it as a pilot program at Hemingway Elementary School. Nurture has also had the opportunity to take a few seg-ments to Hailey, Bellevue and Woodside schools.

The program includes monthly nutrition lessons, healthy food tastings and handouts that sug-gest low-cost nutritious recipes that students can make at home.

One program focused on the importance of breakfast and how children who eat a healthy breakfast perform better on academic tests. Students learned

which cereals are “go” cere-als—healthy ones that give them lots of energy. They also learned which cereals you want to go “slow” with—ones that contain more than 9 grams of sugar and less than 3 grams of fiber per serving.

On Rainbow Day, Schlatter cautioned kids against thinking a food they find at the grocery store has vegetables or fruits in it just because fruits or vegeta-bles are pictured on the box.

“I read to the end and I didn’t find any fruits or vegetables, but I did find something that said, ‘artificial flavoring,’ ” she said, holding up one box.

“Here’s a tough one,” she produces another box. “It says, ‘Fruit Roll-ups,’ but there’s no fruit in it. It does have artificial corn syrup, though. That’s defi-nitely not a fruit.”

The very last item says ‘fruit juice.’ Maybe it’s got a little. But do you think it’s as healthy as an apple? “You have to be a smart shopper,” she added, tapping her head.

The program is funded by donations from individuals and local organizations, includ-ing The Papoose Club, which provided $1,000 for snacks and supplies for the Hemingway pro-gram, and St. Luke’s Wood River Foundation, which gave Nurture a $5,000 grant.

Fifth-grade teacher Brad Stansberry said his kids love the programs that Nurture has done.

“I’ve had numerous parents telling me that their kids are bringing home ideas from these ladies,” he said. They’re going home and telling their parents that something has more fats than they need. And they’re re-minding their parents that they need to eat whole grains. The parents think it’s awesome.”

RECIPES - Here are a few recipes kids can try at home:

MYPLATE PIZZAThe cheese in this dish pro-

vides calcium, which strength-ens bones and teeth.

1 whole wheat English muffin or mini whole wheat bagel

¼ cup tomato sauce1 slice low-fat sandwich meat,

such as ham or turkey¼ cup shredded mozzarella

cheese4 chunks pineapplePreheat oven to 400 degrees.

Slice meat into bite-sized pieces. Assemble the pizza, spreading the sauce on the muffin. Then add meat and pineapple. Top with cheese, place pizza on bak-ing sheet and bake 5 minutes.

YOGURT PARFAITThe yogurt in this dish

contains a good bacteria that helps people digest food. It also contains calcium, which keeps bones strong.

Whole grain oatsFresh berries or other cut-up

fruitVanilla yogurtRaisins, Kashi cereal, pepitas

(optional)Cook the oats in a rice cooker

or on the stove. Layer the yo-gurt, berries and oats in a glass. Sprinkle raisins, cereal and pepitas on top.

BREAKFAST PIZZABananas are a good source of

potassium. They help bodies stay balanced and hydrated.

Ingredients:1 whole wheat tortilla1 banana2 tablespoons nut butterHoney, optionalSpread nut butter on the tor-

tilla. Slice banana into quarter-size slices and place on pizza. Cut a slice or roll into a burrito if you’re on the go.

naTIve LanDSCaPeSWhat is native landscap-

ing? Plants native to our yards are those

that actually grew there before cultivation and construction dis-turbed the site. Therefore, a na-tive landscape incorporates these plants that naturally reside in the local ecosystem.

Native plants create a land-scape that is more suited to the climate and soils that surround us, and reduce the resources necessary to maintain the land-scape. They provide benefits that include water savings, decreased maintenance, healthy plants, and a unique aesthetic value for your home.

Anyone wishing to plant a “native” landscape can choose a

definition that suits their land-scaping needs. You may prefer a narrower definition if your goal is to protect the ecological integ-rity of an undisturbed site and limit the importation of non-na-tive plants. If you want to choose from the widest variety of plants adapted to your climate and soil, you can include plants that reside in a contiguous region with similar climate and geol-ogy. In Idaho, this more flexible definition means we can consider any plant found within the In-termountain West. By adopt-ing this broader definition, we can include species that extend the season of color, add to the number of attractive trees and shrubs, and avoid the repetitive

appearance that results from limitations in plant choice.

There is no reason to limit native landscapes to an informal style; for example, you can create an Italian or French garden feel. Native plants don’t determine landscape form—they become the elements and then style dictates use and presentation. If you’d like to learn more about native landscapes, please contact your local Extension office.

Wishful thinking can pull the wool over the eye of truth, but it wasn’t that

this time. Just as we can tell winter’s coming on a cold August night, I felt spring by mid-Janu-ary, amid all that single-digit freeze. There were bare spots in the Habitat, and fresh green grass was showing beneath the bird feeder. (The seeds weren’t sprouting. It was young grass from last fall that simply didn’t freeze to death. A bear came by and mistook the feeder for a piñata.)

The robins arrived a month ago. The weather was so bad in Twin Falls they came up here, to the valley of the sun, for some relief. I passed that tidbit along to Kathleen Cameron, one of our local birders par excellence, and got a ‘hahaha.’ She mentioned that once a bird is up here, there’s no going back on the bus, and that a better harbin-ger of spring is the red-winged blackbird, very common in the lower 48. It is the state bird of Maryland. If it warms further in the coming years, these birds may locate here, though this area, along with Montana and Wyoming, is only their spring/summer range. They’re year-round residents on the Snake River Plain and points south. Our chickadees got vo-cal—their ‘chick-a-dee-dee’ call was common, as was their early morning song, ‘fee-bee,’ which my untrained ears thought to be a Say’s Phoebe. They won’t be here until later. By the week, the noise level rises, like now with the woodpeckers, who, like kids, bang on the loudest things they can find. The interest of bird watchers is piqued by the sight-ings of seldom seen species. Re-cently, Kathleen has been chas-ing a brambling, and no wonder. It is a multi-colored beauty that stands out in the barren winter landscape, streaked with orange, yellow and black. It is a Eur-

asian species that flies across the Bering Strait and shows up here. Ornithologists have a wide range of definitions besides ‘com-mon’ and ‘rare.’ The brambling is casual here, meaning that over the course of a decade, it will be seen regularly, though it will not breed here for lack of numbers.

There is no question that our earlier springs have lengthened the season by about a week, on average. Both animal and plant behavior indicate that. (Not every species can adapt to rapid change, so there will be more and more victims.) My Habitat work list is starting earlier and earlier. I’ll be seeding soon (no vegetables). A lot of wildflower seeds need stratification—i.e., a significant period of exposure to cold—before they will sprout. If I seed during the Vernal Equinox (today), I’m three weeks ahead of schedule. My plant-feeding schedule has to be moved up as well. This is good news for lettuce, spinach and radishes, which will have longer grow-ing seasons before they bolt. We can do two crops per season, or extend the stagger times for some vegetables so the crop won’t ripen at once. These are some of the benefits of global warming. Unfortunately, the downside is massive, costing over $100 bil-lion, and counting. It dwarfs the sequester. Some recent statistics are sobering. Since 1985, there have only been two months in the U.S. that were cooler than normal. This is the warmest we’ve been in 4,000 years. The concentration of greenhouse gases (or just CO2) is nearing 400 parts per million, the great-est in the last 800,000 years. Some hoax.

I like to keep things simple, and don’t need all my antennas out to detect spring. Somewhat ahead of schedule, the hills are bare, the motorcycles are out and I can buy asparagus for $1.99/pound. Can’t wait for those fake, chemically-dosed strawber-ries from Monterey.

Hailey’s new Bow Bridge is profiled in the March issue of “Idaho

Magazine.” Writer Karen Bossick tells

how Leslie Howa and the

Wood River Land Trust joined forces to create the iconic bridge in the article “A Bow over the Big Wood.”

Other articles look at the Copper Basin, how to catch a

skunk, skiing in Indian Valley and the northern Idaho towns of Coeur d’Alene and Kend-rick.

Bow Bridge in the idaho Spotlight

Story & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

Got a camera and a pen-chant for going wild? You could find yourself on

the way to Maasai Steppe Heart-land in Tanzania, Africa, for a crash course in filming wildlife.

An aspiring filmmaker can win an apprenticeship with a National Geographic filmmaker through a new short film compe-tition offered by the Sun Valley Film Festival in conjunction with Nat Geo WILD.

Sun Valley Film Festival Executive Director Ted Grennan and others announced the new Wild to Inspire Short Film Com-petition Friday afternoon.

It’s a call to action, said Geoff Daniels, executive vice president and general manager for Nat Geo WILD: “It’s an exciting way to invigorate and invite a whole new generation of filmmakers.”

The contest will bring expo-sure for the Sun Valley Film Festival as the news gets out, Daniels added.

And, hopefully, it will inspire people to protect wildlife, which has been so devastated by poach-ing, deforestation and other issues, added Lisa Firestone.

Submissions no longer than five minutes long will be ac-cepted from April 1 through Oct. 1. Each must focus on nature with the goal of inspiring people to let the wild into their lives every day.

The pieces must be awe-inspir-ing, real, unexpected and fear-less, stressed Casey Anderson, Nat Geo WILD’s “America the Wild” host. The shorts will be judged on their connection to the theme, “Wild to Inspire,” quality of storyline and script, creativity and/or content originality and production and editing quality.

The top three finalists will be flown to the 2014 Sun Valley Film Festival where they will screen their short films and a panel of judges, including Daniels, Anderson, Sun Valley’s National Geographic filmmaker Bob Poole and others, including

representatives of the African Wildlife Foundation.

The winner will be flown to Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara National Park and the African Wildlife Foundation’s Manyara Ranch where they will be charged with shining a light on African wildlife with a focus on big cat research and conser-vation efforts through blog posts, videos and other means.

The winner will also be ascribed with giving Nat Geo WILD fans a look at what goes on behind the camera and what it takes to be a wildlife film-maker.

For information, go to https://vimeo.com/groups/wildtoin-spire.

WilD WesTNat Geo WILD aired its new

three-part world-premiere spe-cial, “The Wild West,” at the Sun Valley Film Festival on Friday.

The special will debut on Sunday, June 2, on Nat Geo WILD. It will offer viewers a look at what it calls “the original outlaws of the West”—elephant seals, rattlesnakes, hawks, bears—including grizzly bears—and wolves, spotted owls, fringehead fish, salmon, scorpions, bobcats and, of course, vultures.

WILD TO InSPIRe:Aspiring Filmmakers Can Compete for an Apprenticeship With

Nat Geo WILD

casey anderson, who was nicknamed “the animal” magnet as a kid, grew up in Helena, mont., surrounded by wilderness and animals. His nat geo Wild series, “america the Wild with casey anderson,” returns for its sec-ond season in June—this time focusing on wildlife in north america.

community School third-Graders

donate Art the community School’s third-

grade class recently revealed its do-nation to the St. luke’s Wood river Fine art collection. the class chose to support the hospital’s art program, donating funds for an art display box to showcase student artwork.

the student art display box was funded by the young philanthropists in conjunction with WoW Projects, a local organization committed to edu-cating students about the importance of generosity.

the students crafted the first stu-dent art exhibit, which features ador-able “ugly dolls.” the students imag-ined, stuffed, and stitched the dolls themselves. the art display box will continually rotate student artwork to spread good cheer throughout the second floor of St. luke’s.

alongside the hospital-wide fine art collection, the students’ gener-osity will enhance the experience of all St. luke’s visitors, volunteers, pa-tients, and staff.

Size Matters

Just about everything in our world is moving forward

technologically at a rapid pace and mountain bikes are no excep-tion. A few years back the 29 inch wheel made an entry into the marketplace. While it didn’t take a strong hold right away, it has more recently become a bigger, (pun intended), player. Due to the larger size, the 29er rolls through rocks and rough areas on the trail more smoothly than the traditional 26 inch wheel while also carrying more momentum through trail un-dulations. However, some riders feel like this bigger wheel is a bit sluggish in technical terrain and is not as nimble when conditions get tight, (i.e. switchbacks), and is simply not as responsive and fun to ride.

Body size could also be considered while looking at wheel size, a shorter rider may be more comfortable on the smaller wheel while a taller rider more at home on the bigger wheel. This would seem pretty natural.

Enter the 650b or 27.5 wheels. Skeptics were quick to downplay this wheel size and say it would never take hold; however it’s be-come quite clear that the industry is embracing this wheel size with new bike models and components becoming available. It’s important to note that this is not a new wheel size. Historically the 650b wheel was commonly used on touring bikes and utility bikes. In fact early mountain bike pioneers such as Tom Ritchey and Gary Fisher had been experimenting with this wheel size and concluded that it may be the ideal size for the mountain bike.

While the 26 and 29 inch wheel sizes are not broken and work just fine, it’s a bit like the story of the 3 bears, one is a bit too small, one is a bit too big, and the 27.5 is just right. The 27 will have some of the benefit of the 29er in terms of smoother rolling through rough terrain, but still being plenty nimble when the trail gets techni-cal. Note that the so called 27.5 is not actually halfway between the 26 and 29 inch wheels, but about 1/3 larger than the 26. One of the most difficult things about this wheel size is how the industry is referring to it, 27.5 or 650b?

While there is a limited selec-tion of models to choose from this season, it’s assured that we’ll see many more models with this wheel size in the pipeline for the future. Our local brand Scott has introduced the new Genius this season, a 150 mm. travel trail bike, and Sturtos will have demos available.

While all of this technology is great, the bottom line is that all these wheel sizes work, the important thing is to get out there and ride. Get some spinning in on the pave, get used to being in the saddle again, and we’ll see you on

the trails soon!

This Weeks Lunch Special!movie review

By JonatHan Kane

In the new indie romantic comedy, Celeste and Jessie Forever, sometimes more is

less. Trying to be hip, the movie, written by its star, Rashida Jones, and Will McCormack, instead feels as shallow as the city that it takes place in – Los Angeles. The story follows the disintegration of a six-year marriage between Jones and Saturday Night Live’s Andy Samberg. Jones is a fierce Type-A personality who works as a trend spotter for a market-ing firm, and Samberg is her slacker husband artist. Jones needs more, and even though they are best friends they are separated and living in different parts of the same house. This is much to the chagrin of their friends who think the whole thing is weird. Emotionally, Jones has the severe upper hand but the tables are soon turned when Samberg finds out he is a father-to-be from a one-night stand and moves in with his beautiful girlfriend. According to the plot conventions, this sends Jones’ life into a terrible tailspin

and the picture for all intents and purposes turns into hers. We watch her tumble through his garbage, give a drunk and embarrassing wedding toast and painfully try to date again until she finally pulls it together and sets off for a new life.

The picture is directed by Lee Toland Krieger. The two stars certainly do an admirable job. Jones has learned that in order to find a really good role in Hollywood, you probably have to write it yourself. Here all her comedic chops that were so en-dearing in The Office and Parks and Recreation are present and her command of the screen is palpable. The real revelation is Samberg, who displays a depth and control that was never in effect on Saturday Night Live. His performance foretells great things to come.

Forever Doesn’t Mean Forever

How Does Your Garden Grow?By BrooKe Pace mcKenna,

tHe Hunger coalition

My mother keeps a jour-nal tracking the return of the robins to her front

yard each year. This year, she spotted them in the first week of February; the earliest return she’s ever seen. It certainly feels like spring is trying to make an appearance ahead of schedule, with warm days mixed between scattered snow showers. The ap-proach of spring means one thing for local green thumbs: time to start contemplating that sum-mer garden.

A rise in home gardening has historically accompanied eco-nomic recessions, and the most recent downturn has been no exception. The National Garden-ing Association tracks garden trends. They reported a 20 percent growth in home gardens from 2007 to 2012. A few dollars spent on a pack of tomato seeds can turn into weeks of salsa, tomato sauce and salads, helping families stretch already tight budgets. Along with providing fresh, healthy produce free from harmful chemicals, a backyard garden can help to ease stress, keep your body limber and even get you in a better mood. A study conducted in the Netherlands showed that spending time out-side tending to those tomatoes

left participants feeling happier and healthier. Seems like a great return on the investment of time and minimal dollars.

Here at The Hunger Coalition, we have strong feelings about gardening. Our 10,000-square-foot Hope Garden in downtown Hailey serves as an outdoor classroom for children and adults, and a highly productive fruit, vegetable and herb garden. Participants in our garden workshops and programs unani-mously report on the positive effects of being in the garden. Our garden volunteers are a hardy, committed crew happily dedicated to weed pulling and harvesting hundreds of pounds of produce each summer for our Mobile Food Bank. Just taking a walk through the garden, with bees buzzing through the flow-ers, birds chirping and a breeze rustling the plants, can bring a moment of relaxation. It’s open to the public—we encourage you to come by and take a stroll!

Beyond the obvious benefits to mental and physical health, gar-dening can be good for the whole community. Growing a garden reduces your carbon footprint, and if you buy your gardening supplies in the valley, keeps more dollars local. Not everyone has the space to grow their own garden. At The Hunger Coali-tion, we have a “Grow A Row”

program for those interested in helping their neighbors in need by growing a little extra or donating from gardens bursting beyond capacity. We also started a pilot “Grow Your Own” pro-gram last summer, for commu-nity members with limited space and resources.

The purpose of our programs is ensuring our neighbors in need have the nutrition and sup-port necessary for a successful transition out of our food lines. With 1,600 local children and adults coming to The Hunger Coalition for help last year, we see these garden programs as critical to the continued health and well-being of our entire com-munity. This summer, consider turning that corner of your yard into a small vegetable garden, or adding an extra row to your existing bed and donating the excess to those who can’t grow their own. The benefits to you and your community are nearly boundless.

AbOUT THe COAliTiONThe Hunger Coalition strives

to end hunger in our community by providing wholesome food to those in need and by promot-ing solutions to the underlying causes of hunger through col-laboration, education and advo-cacy. For more information, visit www.thehungercoalition.org

Dev khalsa PhotographyFor tHe WeeKly Sun

Dev’s background starts with a worldly begin-ning at boarding school

in India up to 12th grade. From there she moved to New Mexico where she attended college and majored in photojournalism. She came to the Valley with her husband Gurmeet by fate’s hand. They were visiting a Galena yurt and met a person at the yurt that was a friend of a friend and before they went home to New Mexico, Gurmeet had an interview with Marketron. A few months later they were mov-ing to the Valley to make a new home. Dev started by working at The Wood River Journal for four years as their only photographer. This was a great beginning to make acquaintances.

If you were to ask her what separates her from other pho-tographers, she would say it is her love of working with people and getting to know them and their personalities. Her goal is to satisfy her clients’ visions but to also help their individualization and personality shine threw. She credits her Indian upbring-ing with allowing her to really appreciate “American” culture. Dev herself never went to a prom or rodeos, so she cherishes those moments for her clients and can appreciate the moment

and memories that she is help-ing to capture for her clients. Her worldly perspective allows her the flexibility to be able to “roll” with the moment and not get fixated on one particular moment or idea. She can relay her experiences and expectations of her clients to help them work with her and to come up with unique photographic experiences that allow her clients to be at ease and enjoy the photographic experience as a whole.

Dev has done it all—from capturing editorial events in the instant they are occurring or the emotional moments afterward.

She has done portraits, wed-dings, newborns; fashion shoots; and even taught workshops to children through adults. She loves the variety of the demands and the creative moments on the fly that she has to come up with to capture the moment the newborn makes that expression to demonstrate the early signs of a budding personality.

For a wonderful photographic experience that you, your family and anyone lucky enough to be a part of the photographic journey with Dev Khalsa will be proud to share, contact Dev Khalsa Photography.

As we approach the April 15 tax filing deadline,

the tax implications of your investment portfolio may be top of mind right now. When it comes to your long-term holdings, such as your retirement savings, you may wish to consider incorporating tax-deferred accounts.

A tax-deferred account allows you to postpone the payment of income tax until you begin making withdrawals. In the case of an individual retirement account, one of the most common forms of tax-deferred account, withdrawals are presumably made after you retire (doing so before you reach age 59 1/2 may subject you to a 10 percent penalty in addition to income taxes). With such an account, your investments will compound untaxed, allowing them the opportunity to grow faster than in a taxable account. In many cases, the end result is a larger nest egg, even after the funds are taxed at withdrawal.

So which investments in a portfolio are best suited in tax-deferred accounts? Generally speaking, those that generate frequent cash flow, distributions, or short-term gains. Examples of such investments may include

government and cor-porate bonds, REITs, income mutual funds/exchange traded funds, high-yielding securities, or high-turnover mutual funds which have a ten-dency to generate short-term capital gains.

With many income securities, the interest

they produce could be currently taxed at ordinary income tax rates unless they are held in a tax-deferred account. Mutual funds distribute capital gains to shareholders each year and can also generate dividends. Placing your mutual fund holdings in a tax-deferred account gives you the opportunity to maximize the impact of reinvesting those distributions. If you expect your tax rate at retirement to be either the same or lower than your tax rate before retirement, it may make sense to include these types of investments in your tax-deferred account.

Investors should consider a fund’s investment objective, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus, which contains this and other important informa-tion, is available from your Financial Advisor and should be read carefully before investing. The investment return and prin-

cipal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Of course, not all investments are right for tax-deferred ac-counts. Investments that qualify for capital gains treatment, such as individual stocks, may be a better fit for taxable accounts. Some exchange traded funds and index funds may be as well. Also, if you’re relying on dividends from stocks or bonds to cover your living expenses, you’ll want to keep those holdings in taxable accounts.

Each investor’s situation is unique and requires professional advice beyond the scope of this article. Consult a tax profes-sional for more details regarding your specific situation, and talk with a financial advisor to de-termine the type of investments that are best suited for helping you pursue your financial goals.

Sun valley Film Festival — That’s a WrapStory & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

Lisa Wood was initiated into the fascinating world of master sommeliers in the

movie “Somm,” which showed viewers what it’s like to try to pass a wine guru’s exam—a test that has one of the lowest pass rates in the world.

Sara Gorham got a peek at the Australian culture of the 1960s that labeled aboriginal children as “flora and fauna,” courtesy of the movie “Sapphire.”

And armchair adventurers got a harrowing glimpse of what it’s like to climb K2 with “The Sum-mit”—thankful, probably, that there was no 3D technology to shove the ice falls and avalanch-es in their face.

The Sun Valley Film Festi-val, which concluded Sunday, doubled its ticket sales from the first year, bringing in 2,500 film viewers from Washington, D.C., London, New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, Mexico and Canada to listen to the likes of Academy Award-winning screenwriter Stephen Gaghan and Jodie Fos-ter and watch 60 films and TV premieres.

Film producer Sharon Costa de Beauregard said she has been to the Cannes Film Festival, which is the biggest, nearly a dozen times. But, she says, she still enjoyed the Sun Valley Film Festival even though it might be considered small potatoes by Cannes standards.

“You might find a film that’s been overlooked by bigger festi-vals,” she said.

Venice, Calif., real estate financier Jay Goldberg won the Reel Sweet Sweepstakes all-expenses-paid ski and film trip offered by the Film Festival, Alaska Airlines and Sun Valley

Resort. He had not been to Sun Valley since 1985, even though he learned to ski on Dollar Mountain.

“I’m an avid skier, a Los Angeles-based film fan and I’m always up for a weekend trip,” he said. “What a perfect weekend. It was a great blend of interesting films, fun people in a relaxing, beautiful setting. Getting outside to ski and bike made sitting in the theater even more enjoyable. We ate in great restaurants—special props to Enoteca!—and enjoyed the Film Festival parties… the mornings were a little slow, as a result.”

Goldberg said he was particu-larly interested the question-and-answer sessions, which he said turned a weekend of movies into “a weekend of film excite-ment.”

“I enjoyed hearing about how the writers developed charac-ters and the directors made the scripts come alive. Frankly, a couple of the films were not great, but the Q&A made even those somehow engaging and thought-provoking,” he said.

Clint Ostler, manager of mar-keting for Alaska Airlines, said his airline got involved in spon-soring the film festival because “we’re always looking for fun, exciting ways to get involved.

We gave it a whirl last year. And it was really successful. It’s got good engagement, a good vibe.”

There were some duds among the films. Viewers hosed “Chlo-rine,” contending that it was amateurish and reeked from bad characterization and plot. And one woman lamented that she had seen too many depressing movies about bad relationships.

But there were some clear winners, as well. Among them “Kon Tiki,” which served up an amazing shark attack—by man, not shark.

The Hailey Fourth of July Parade—Elbie Bellon’s bucking car, included—showed up in “An Unkindness of Ravens,” which otherwise was filmed in McCall. And the sleeper hit seemed to be Will McCormack’s “Celeste and Jessie Forever,” which explored relationships from every which way, according to those who saw it.

Peg Owens, who heads up the Idaho Film Bureau, said she saw a great deal of progress from last year: “They have a larger hospitality suite, more corporate sponsors. I even heard films were sold out way before they even got here. We’re on our way.”

Elizabeth Fraley, who came from Los Angeles to cover Jodie Foster’s appearance at the Film Festival for her online media, agreed: “I think this will double next year. There’s a lot of poten-tial.”

Ketchum author and former district attorney Charles Brandt watched the Screenwriter’s Lab with particular interest since a script for his book, “I Heard You Paint Houses,” recently under-went a similar process with Robert DeNiro and other actors.

“I had the idea that the idea of screenwriters as artists was bullshit. I’ve learned from listen-ing to the screenwriters here that they are true artists,” he said.

Gail Wray was one of two people who won Festival passes in a contest in The Weekly Sun. The experience convinced her to buy a film pass good for all the movies next year.

“I spent $50 last year but when you can see all of them you really get into it,” she said, list-ing her favorites, which included the locally produced “Heart Rock Ranch.”

Festival Director Teddy Grennan said festival direc-tors are already brainstorming ideas for improving next year’s festival. They’re trying to figure out a way to get pass holders to indicate what films they plan to see so they can sell more tickets ahead of time.

And they hope to bring in bet-ter projectors that will show off the digital format more clearly.

Jodie Foster praised the festi-val for bringing in unique films that wouldn’t be seen at the mega-plex down on the corner.

Remember how this is now, she encouraged those who at-tended her Coffee Talk Sunday morning. In coming years, lines will be long and, hopefully, they’ll have better projectors, she added.

sOUNDbiTesSun Valley is not only a

beautiful town filled with lovely people but people here know their cinema.” —Teddy Grennan, executive director of the Sun Valley Film Festival

“It’s exciting to witness the birth of this. The potential is so great.” —Trevor Groth, whose Sundance Film Festival has grown from a thousand films in 2001 to 12,000

“I don’t make a lot of money. I just think about making a lot of money and talk about it.” –actor and screenwriter Will McCor-mack

“I’d shoot every film in Idaho if I could but the state has no rebate. Louisiana, by con-trast, gives back 40 percent of the money filmmakers spend there.”—Randy Friedenberg, director of “An Unkindness of Ravens” and “Windwalkers”

“If I had an unlimited budget, I would probably continue making the films the way I am now—and then I’d just pay my-self.”—Jaffe Zinn, whose “Magic Valley” will be released in April

“This film festival will do a great deal for the state of Idaho in terms of filmmaking,”—Peg Owens, Idaho Film Bureau

Key TO sUN VAlleyJodie Foster was presented

And Bryan Furlong, of festival sponsor Zions Bank, presented a $1,000 Gem State Award to Blackfoot native Jesse Millward for his film, “Craters of the Moon,” which Zions believed best reflected the beauty and diver-sity of the Gem State. The film was made for a mere $20,000, but every day three or four ve-hicles became stuck in the snow.

AUDIENCE AWARD—“Stuck” by Stuart Acher—about romance in a traffic jam

VISION AWARD—Pro-ducer Sean Baker for “Star-let”

GEM STATE AWARD—“Craters of the Moon” by Jesse Millward

Back Seat DriverMy daughter was exception-

ally nervous for her driving testso the instructor allowed me tocome along, provided I sit qui-etly in the backseat. My daugh-ter did extremely wellthroughout the test. However,the instructor was overly criti-cal.

On the last street my daughterwas directed to parallel park thecar. At the first opening, shepulled up, signaled and backedin perfectly. Looking out thewindow, the instructor againcriticized her saying he wouldhave to deduct 15 points for theparking.

I couldn't take it anymore andburst out, "15 points? Thatparking was perfect!"

The instructor calmly pointedout the window and replied,"Yes, but she parked in front ofa fire hydrant."

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,Last month I finally got my dri-ver’s license. I'm very excitedbecause now I have independ-ence from Mom and Dad. SinceI've been doing well in school (Irecently made the honor roll),my Dad said he would buy me acar. How great is that? He'sbeen reading the classified sec-tion and calling some ads. Theproblem is that he only wants tospend about $2000 and all ofthose cars are more than fiveyears old. Most of my friendsdrive cars that are worth a lotmore than that! Some evendrive their parent's SUV's orsports cars to school. I don'twant to be the only one pullinginto the school parking lot witha wrecker. How do I convincemy Dad that he should be look-ing at higher priced ads?After all, my gradesare good and I'veseen his paycheckso I know he canafford it.

• • •Carry: It sounds like someone

might be a little spoiled. Maybeyour dad doesn't realize that goodgrades are supposed to translate toa BMW convertible?

Cash: First of all, congratula-tions on your good grades. It's

very important to do well inschool, not just for recognition, butfor your future as well!

Carry: However, you shouldalso be grateful that your parentsare willing to help you out withyour first car. Regardless of yourfather's paycheck, they do havereasons for their decisions.

Cash: If your Dad is circlingads in a specific price range ortype of car, he probably has goodreason. He may be considering allof the expenses, not just the initialcost of the car.

Carry: For example, older carsare typically cheaper to insure,especially for teenagers. If you aregoing to help pay the insurance

premium, you may be very thank-ful for his decision.

Cash: With an older car, youand your Dad may not be thatupset over minor dings or dentsthat "just happen" in the schoolparking lot. However, if you weredriving a new car, the smallestscratch could be a big issue.

Carry: Try sitting down andtalking with your Dad. If you'reconcerned about his decision, dis-cuss it with him so you can betterunderstand. Then maybe you canwork together on finding a caryou’re both happy with.

Cash: After all, driving even a"wrecker" to school beats riding inon your bicycle!

Cruise ControlBefore you hand your child a

set of car keys, ask yourself if theywill be driving safely. A survey ofover 1000 people ages 15 to 17was conducted by the AllstateFoundation. The results foundthat over 60% use a cell phonewhile driving. More than 69%speed to keep up with traffic, 64%speed to go through a yellow lightand 47% admit that their passen-gers sometimes distract themwhile driving. With statistics likethat, it's no wonder teenage acci-dents account for over $40 billiondollars a year in damages.Joy Ride

Do you know how your kidsare driving? According to TheInsurance Institute for HighwaySafety (IIHS), the leading publichealth problem for teenagers isauto accidents. Fortunately, tech-nology offers some options forparents. In addition to bumpersticker campaigns that allow otherdrivers to report erratic driving,there are now many GPS systemsand on-board video cameras thatallow you to track your child'sdestination and speed right fromyour PC.

financial support to ensure the proj-ect’s first year success; and (3) ongo-ing membership in Wild gift’s grow-ing network of leaders with ongoing opportunities for collaboration and strategizing through annual forums.

in addition, each leader is given (4) the Wild gift—a deep wilderness experience in the idaho backcountry connecting them to the natural world on a very personal level, where they can plan projects without the distrac-tions of daily life while discovering their unique responsibility as stewards of future generations.
