I tell them that even a banana has a lot of natural sugar—that you should eat it with a protein like peanut butter so your blood sugar doesn’t spike.” In the coming weeks, Guylay plans to talk about the new USDA pyramid, the idea of eating a rainbow of fruits and vegetables, and food additives. She also plans to encourage students to “rethink their drink,” encouraging them to drink more water.

Kathryn Guylay is teaching third- and fifth-graders at The Commu-nity School a new language:
“Go foods,” such as turkey and whole-grain breads, that help them run faster and longer.
“Slow (down) foods,” such as doughnuts and candy bars that provide a jolt fol-lowed by sluggishness.
And “sensational snacks,” such as a whole-grain cracker, topped with a slice of cheese and apple, that provides a good pick-me-up in between meals.

student spotlight
By JonatHan Kane
Wood River High School senior Kelly Collins has devoted her life
to community service. And she has the stripes to prove it. She recently was honored by Idaho’s Governor and First Lady with the Governor’s Brightest Star Award for the student category. One hundred and six volunteers were nominated in six categories and Collins made the final cut out of five volunteers before be-ing named the recipient. “I feel so fortunate and lucky to have won,” she said. “When I arrived in Boise, I read the profiles of the other nominees and didn’t think I had a chance. One boy had 640 hours of community service and was juggling six A.P. classes as well as holding down a job. Everyone is nominated by a person who writes a profile and then the Governor picks the winner. I knew that I didn’t have a good shot at winning and when the announcer read the two runners-up and I wasn’t one of them, I resigned myself to that fact. Then when they announced me as the winner, my jaw just dropped. I was so surprised.” She added, “The last three years have been difficult ones for me personally and service has really become an outlet and distraction from what has been going on. I feel so lucky to have been chosen and it makes me feel really good knowing I can make someone’s day better and it’s so fulfilling to put a smile on someone’s face.”
Of all her activities, the one Collins is most proud of is the charity she started—Kelly’s Cookies. “I started it halfway through my junior year. I had a friend in an Apache helicopter unit in Iraq and he would tell me how difficult it was. I was also enrolled in a class called War and the Modern World. Since the troops were based in Baghdad, I wanted them to know how appreciated they were back home, so I decided to do it with cookies.” The result was that almost three hundred cookies were packaged and sent abroad. “Two months later a package arrived for me and I was shocked at what I found. Inside was an official certificate as well as a flag that was flown in my honor on a gunfighter as well as a beautiful letter from the captain
of the unit thanking me. He said, ‘We fly every day and every night and you reminded every-one of home and put a smile on everyone’s face.’ I felt so honored and was actually in awe. The tough part was paying for the supplies, so I babysat a lot and earned the money. I would really like to do it again and it would be great for the community to get involved with funds and to put together a team of bakers. I can’t begin to tell you how much it was appreciated.”
Collins is also heavily involved in raising awareness for the fight to cure Rhetts Syndrome. She became involved because a friend’s child is afflicted. In an attempt to raise funds locally they are putting on a garage sale. For more information go to www.facebook/delilah’sgarage sale.com. In the meantime, Col-lins is busily preparing herself for her senior project that will take her to New Zealand for two months. “I’ll be living on the North Island and will be getting closer to endangered species and learn how the New Zealand ecology is being preserved. I’ll be living in bunkhouses with scien-tists and students from around the world focusing on things like weeds and bird habitats and equipping feeding stations. I’ve been there before and you can see animals and birds that you can’t see anywhere else in the world. I’m very excited. I love nature and have a deep appre-ciation of the environment. I’m also very interested in botany and this could open up a lot of doors for me.” Whatever results her trip brings, Collins can be assured that there already are a lot of doors open for her.
Putting Smiles on the Troops’ Faces

as the winner [of the Governor’s Brightest Star Award]…I was so surpised. ”

The Wood River Valley’s pound hounds have lots to give thanks for this
Thanksgiving, thanks to 17 youngsters at G’Day Care pre-school.
The kids collected a carload of dog and cat food, along with dog and cat bowls for residents at the Animal Shelter of the Wood River Valley.
“The kids vote every month what they want to do and this month they voted unanimously to help the animals at the shel-ter,” said Pati Meyer, the lead teacher. “The kids worked really hard at getting people to bring in donations.”
The kids turned the preschool at Shenandoah Drive in Hailey into a “pet store” where they practiced grooming and walk-ing their stuffed animals. They also pushed the stuffed pets in strollers and held show-and-tell klatches with the make-believe pets.
“They’ve been very sweet — they understand more about giv-ing as a result of this exercise. And I notice they’re treating one another more kindly, too,” Meyer
said. “They did say, however, that they were glad they didn’t have to pick up any poop.”

Sun Valley is Primed to OpenPHoto & Story By Karen BoSSicK
Sun Valley will have some-thing for everyone when it opens Thanksgiving Day
except, perhaps, off-piste powder skiing.
Skiers will be able to ski both the Warm Springs and River Run sides of Baldy, using the Lower River Run, Lookout Ex-press, Christmas and Challenger chairs.
Upper College, Flying Squir-rel, Lower Picabo, Lower Warm Springs, Roundhouse Lane, Roundhouse Slope, Lower Can-yon and Mid and Lower River Run will be open.
There’ll be four medium park rails set up on Baldy’s Lower River Run until they’re moved to Dollar Mountain on Dec. 10. And the Kinderspielplatz mov-ing carpet will be in service for youngsters learning to ski.
The Quarter Dollar high-speed quad and Accelerator mov-ing carpet will be open on Dollar Mountain. And Dollar will feature an early-season progres-sion park with nine rails.
Dollar Mountain will be open through Sunday, Nov. 27. Then it will close, reopening for the remainder of the season on Dec. 10.
Once Dollar is fully open, ter-rain park fans will find that Sun Valley is continuing its march toward its goal of boasting one of the top terrain parks in the nation by doubling the number of battleship rails, boxes, barrel jibs, wall rides and butter boxes.
The resort is also building a new superpipe in Old Bowl on Dollar Mountain.
“We put it there because of our commitment to the terrain park. We think it will get more use there than on Lower Warm Springs where we have had the superpipe the past several years,” said Jack Sibbach, Sun Valley’s director of marketing.
The Warm Springs pipe will not be filled in immediately in case the resort finds further need for it, he added.
Dollar Mountain will also feature a skier and boarder-cross track offering all the excitement of an Apollo Ono short-track speed skating race with its cam-bered turns, berms, drops and steep and flat sections.
This one will be smaller and
more family-friendly than the one built last year for NCAA col-lege competitors, said Sibbach.
Kids age six through high school can learn how to ride all of Dollar Mountain’s features through the Sun Valley Snows-ports FreeRide Team, Sundays in the Park classes and halfpipe training, along with non-com-petitive gate training.
Kids and adults skiing Baldy’s Seattle Ridge, meanwhile, will be able to seek out new adven-tures on the new Red-Headed Woodpecker Trail in the trees between Broadway and Lower Christin’s Silver. A Huckle-berry Bear adventure trail has been carved off Olympic Ridge overlooking River Run Lodge. And other adventure trails have been carved through Central Park and other woods off Lower College, French Dip and Warm Springs.
Also new this year: 30 acres of gladed ski and boarding terrain adjacent to Upper Limelight on top of the mountain, near Olym-pic Lane and Olympic Ridge on the Lower River Run side of the mountain and in Upper and Lower Central Park off College.
Sibbach said the woods were cleaned out as part of Sun Valley’s efforts to improve the health of the woods on the mountain.
Sun Valley added a second Prinoth Beast to its grooming fleet this year. The Beast offers the latest in grooming technology, taking the place of two of Sun Valley’s older cats as it manicures the best snow sur-face man can make. Sun Valley also has two new Bison groomers for Dollar Mountain.
EATS AND MOREFull restaurant and bar service will
be available at river run and Warm Springs day lodges beginning thanks-giving day with lookout restaurant open for drinks and snacks through the weekend. carol’s dollar mountain lodge will also provide full service through the weekend.
and don’t think you’re going to miss out on Black Friday shopping spe-cials if you go skiing on Friday.
Sun Valley’s village shops will ob-serve Black Friday with special deals and extended hours on Friday. and Pete lane’s is offering an early season hot wax special.

Ski racers taking part in Sun Valley’s first thanksgiving Ski race clinic got to hop on the lower river run chairlift five days ahead of other skiers. But they’ll have to begin sharing the mountain come thursday.

chief Jeff gunter has just com-pleted the prestigious chief executive officer training Seminar, held at the headquarters of the national center for missing and exploited children (ncmec) in alexandria, Va. the train-ing seminar was specifically designed for law enforcement executives and 911 emergency center managers.
chief gunter joined 52 other chiefs, sheriffs and 911 emergency manag-ers who were selected to attend the 129th session of the ceo course, and is now one of more than 5,000 who have completed this training.
the seminar was designed to pro-vide attendees a better understanding of the problem of missing and sexually exploited children.
created in 1997 and funded by the
united States department of Justice, office of Juvenile Justice delinquency (oJJdP), the ceo training discusses the needed steps in implementing best practices for call takers, responding officers, investigators, and command staff.
“this has been one of the most ‘eye opening’ experiences for me in my 23 years as a law enforcement officer,” said chief gunter. “to have been se-lected in itself was a great honor, but to be able to bring this knowledge back and put it into practice is a plus for the citizen of idaho.”
once candidates are selected to at-tend, all travel and lodging expenses during training are covered by the na-tional center for missing and exploited children through a grant by oJJdP.

First Pre-Thanksgiving Ski Racing Clinic
Jumps Off to Good StartBy Karen BoSSicK
Jay Fitzgerald planted his ski poles between two poles serving as a starting gate
Sunday afternoon and pushed off, catapulting himself down Lower River Run. Within sec-onds he was zigzagging around slalom gates.
Fitzgerald was one of nearly 90 young ski racers who made a merry-go-round out of Lower River Run this past week, rac-ing lickety-split down the slope before hopping on the chairlift to do it again.
The pre-Thanksgiving ski racing camp—Sun Valley’s first—got about 40 members of Sun Valley’s ski team on the mountain five days before its of-ficial Thanksgiving Day opener. And it brought other ski racers from Mt. Hood, Bogus Basin, Brundage, Kelly Canyon and Pebble Creek.
“It’s a historical first,” said Don Wiseman, executive director of the Sun Valley Ski Educa-tion Foundation. “The snow’s good and Sun Valley Company prepared well for it.”
Young ski racers practiced their balance by skiing to the bottom on one ski. They folded their arms across their chest to get the feeling of skiing without using their arms or poles for bal-ance. And they practiced moving their knees from side to side to regain the feel of skiing on edge.
Some went higher, courtesy of snowmobiles that took them to the bottom of Canyon and Mid-River Run.
Scott McClure and other coaches reviewed videotape of the skiers racing gates inside River Run Lodge on a movie
screen.“You’re forcing your turn—ma-
jor penalty there,” McClure told one youngster as they munched on mixed nuts. “You need to develop your turn.”
The racers relished the chance to hit the slopes early.

“It’s really cool,” said Amanda Stelling, another Sun Valley Ski Team racer. “It’s like we have our own private mountain for a
week. We can go as fast as we want without having to worry about other skiers—it’s a total racing clinic. Up until now we’ve had to go to Panorama, Cop-per—anywhere in Colorado—to do early season ski racing clin-ics. It’s so cool to have it here.”

habitat for non-humanity
Last Rites, First SnowsPHoto & Story By Bali SZaBo
Winter is tiptoe-ing into our lives, inch
by inch. The snow is coming. Some leftover black-eyed Susans, their caps and ragged orange skirts in stark contrast to the new snow, dance in the northwest breeze. The storm to the north moved out, and in the clear morning the wind howls. It’s not yet time for that bitter lock-down, and the charms of early winter are on full display. The grasses are bent over from the weight, the last leaves are swirling in the wind, the seed heads of asters, yarrow, sunflowers and coneflowers wear little tams of ice; the sun melts, but the air freezes, so there’s this sparkle to things.
The TV shouts the crimes of the world, tales of child rapes, sexual harassment and the woes of Berlusconi, so I push MUTE. The world out my window is my morning cup of joy. I watch the birth of the season’s first icicles. Drop by drop the water eases over the lip of the eave. Once off the warm roof, it freezes and adheres, and the next drop crawls down the body of the first. The wind moves these trifles of ice and the sun’s rays are re-fracted—glows of orange, yellow, green and blue play to the eye.
At first the sun is too warm and the fledglings fall of their own weight, but then the sun moves, and they begin to grow along the eaves and resemble the fringes of carpet—winter’s tassels.
Finally, the Habitat has been put to rest, much like an unwill-ing child. All the work was not finished. Some plots were not cut back because the bees were out in force on the cornflowers, the asters, the field mint and most of
all, on the lamb’s ears, which were abuzz all day, every day. This was their last supper, so I waited and waited until the snow and the killer frosts of late October closed the door. Nowa-days, being nice to bees is important. The Xerces Society of California has persuaded many farm-ers to plant wildflowers and shrubs at the edge of crop fields. Monocul-ture is depriving bees of a diverse diet, and, like that of songbirds, popu-lations are declining by 10 to 30 percent per year. Only a bachelor’s button kept flowering into the first week of November. I’ll finish the cleanup in the cold and mud of April. Only a little color remains—the leaves of a purple nine-bark, red stems of the Osier dogwood, the olive evergreen of a mountain mahogany, a cluster of rust on a big-toothed maple, the red- and sky-blue berries of cotoneas-ter and elderberry.
I will always remem-ber that it snowed on the 11th hour, 11th minute and 11th sec-ond of 11/11/11, and in the morn-ing, at least, my little corner of the world was transformed, cleansed of the ills of the larger world, if but for a moment.

Tracking’s tough, so start with a good guide and our basic tips. Scat and Tracks of the Rocky Mountains (by James Half-penny) is a nice book that fits in a pocket. Flip through it to get familiar with track shapes, and head out to find some tracks!
Snow can make tracking tough, but if you are fortunate enough to find distinct tracks, the first thing you want to do is look at structure –did this animal have hooves or paws? How many toes do you see? Does it seem to have a sole and heel like our foot, or does it appear to walk on its toes?
Now focus on size and pattern. Measure the track size (tracks in snow tend to get larger as they get older – create a test pit in your own yard to test this!).
Then note how the animal was moving – do you see a single line of tracks (…), tracks that appear two by two (: : :), or tracks where there are two bigger feet and two smaller feet grouped together (= :). You may also note the dis-tance between the tracks.
Lastly, consider habitat. Badgers and wolverines both leave tracks showing five toes, a sole and heel – but you can be certain it is NOT a wolverine if you are out Democrat Gulch! In each case, gather evidence first, and then start to determine the animal – even experienced trackers go wrong by jumping to conclusions.

to your health
By roSemary cody
Scientific research and tech-nology are finally aligning with what ancient wisdom,
spiritual teachings and common sense have long known: Grati-tude is good for you.
Research at the Institute of HeartMath, a recognized leader in exploring the physiol-ogy of emotions, shows that gratitude and appreciation actually synchronize brain and heart rhythms. In this optimal state, called “coherence,” your body and mind function more efficiently. Check their website (www.heartmath.org) to view graphs of rhythms in differ-ent emotional states. A state of frustration registers as a jagged line, like last month’s Dow Jones Industrial average. With grati-tude, the measurement appears like a smooth wave.
Studies conducted by Dr. Robert Emmons, a University of California-Davis professor, show that gratitude is good medicine for organ transplant patients. Patients who kept a daily “gratitude journal” scored higher on measures of mental health, general health and vitality than those who kept only routine notes about their recovery. He expands more on the subject in his latest book: Thanks! How the New Science of Gratitude Can Make You Happier.
Amen Clinics, directed by Dr. Daniel Amen, hold the world’s largest database of behavior-re-lated brain scans (over 66,000!). With an imaging technique using gamma rays to provide 3D visuals, these scans clearly dem-onstrate the effect of emotions, alcohol, drugs and concussions on the brain. Explore the SPECT gallery at www.amenclincs.com to see before and after pictures of a brain on gratitude.
Gratitude is not just a warm, fuzzy feeling. Here are some real benefits:
1. Biochemical changes. With gratitude, our hormones move toward balance. Produc-tion of DHEA, the “anti-aging hormone,” increases. Paul Zak,
director of The Center for Neu-roeconomic Studies at Claremont Graduate University, reports that gratitude triggers oxytocin, the “love hormone” that influ-ences our ability to trust and maintain healthy relationships.
2. Boost to the immune sys-tem. IgA antibodies, our first line of defense against patho-gens, increases. Say adios to cold and flu bugs!
3. Emotional “compound interest.” The more we practice gratitude, the easier it becomes to experience positive feelings. It literally changes our brains. According to Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence, gratitude strengthens the neu-rons in the left prefrontal cortex, which reduces the stress reac-tion—the fight or flight response.
If you want to be part of the fun, consider these simple practices:
• Keep a daily journal of three things you are thankful for.
• Tell a partner, spouse or friend something you appreciate about them every day.
• Look in the mirror every morning and recognize one thing you like about yourself.
Think of gratitude as more than just a note of thanks after the fact. Look at it as a proactive move. Pay it forward. Be thank-ful in advance and allow the laws of attraction to magnetize more abundance. Thirteenth-century spiritual genius Meister Eckhart said, “If the only prayer you ever say is ‘thank you,’ that would suffice.” You will feel richer—and be richer.
Think of it as an investment. Even my financial advisor agrees: This may be the most reliable get-rich-quick scheme available during these unpre-dictable economic times.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Cashman Checks Out Arts Ed. in CubaBy Karen BoSSicK
Much of the art was too sexy for Joni Cashman’s art students at Wood-
side Elementary. But Cashman came away from Cuba with one firm resolve:
Not to waste a thing.“The Cubans are a lovely peo-
ple but very poor. And Havana is filled with decay. They use ev-erything, even making cameras out of tin,” she said, producing a camera made out of tin cans that she brought home with her.
Cashman was one of 25 art teachers and professors who recently spent six days in Cuba as part of an art education del-egation learning about practices in Cuban schools. They were allowed to enter the country legally as part of the delega-tion organized by the National Art Educators Association in conjunction with Professionals Abroad.
Art education is considered one of Cuba’s greatest strengths, Cashman said. Art, theater, music, choral and dance are part of the regular school curriculum in kindergarten through ninth grade. At the high school level, students can choose between intensive arts-focused paths in such disciplines as printmaking, oil painting, dance, sculpture and jewelrymaking.
Cashman had to be careful with the art she purchased at the tourist and government-run markets because much of it was simply too erotic to bring home. The dance she saw many of the students perform in the schools was very sensual, as well.
“We asked why they were so rigid in their discussion but so open sexually in art and culture
but we never did get an answer,” she said.
Cashman did buy some papier-mâché works depicting Hemingway haunts, along with a myriad of guitar picks. But when she tried to give some picks to one young man to distribute to others, she watched him hoard them to sell on an underground market later.
“There’s an underlying capi-talism in a socialist country,” she said.
Cashman said her car driver was emblematic of Cubans’ ambivalent feelings toward Americans.
“He said, ‘We love you and we hate you.’ Cubans appar-ently had quite the life before the sanctions the United States imposed, so they’re not so happy about that. But they love us because of the money we bring in now.”

movie review
By JonatHan Kane
What can you say about another Hollywood film that promises so much,
but instead delivers a work-manlike comedy that isn’t that bad, but isn’t really that good either? That is the new heist comedy, Tower Heist. Those of you expecting a funny Ocean’s Eleven are in for serious disap-pointment. Despite an all-star cast, the new movie directed by Brett Ratner just doesn’t deliver the goods.
What it does do is distinguish itself as the first Bernie Madoff film to hit the marketplace. Tak-ing place in the most luxurious Trump-like apartment building, nestled at the foot of Central Park, we are introduced to Ben Stiller as the building’s manager and Alan Alda as the buildings alpha tenant living in a pent-house suite with a rooftop pool. It seems Alda has made most of his money running a Ponzi scam that the FBI is working diligently to topple. But before it does, Stiller has invested all the employees’ pension fund
with Alda that now has disap-peared. After attacking him, Stiller is fired as well as his cohorts. Seeking revenge, they enlist Matthew Broderick, a tenant that has been foreclosed on and plot to steal $20 million that Stiller believes is hidden in Alda’s apartment.
Enter Eddie Murphy, who in a bit of racial stereotyping plays a street hustler that Stiller knows from his neighborhood and who Stiller enlists to mastermind the plot. The ads for the movie prom-ise a return to form for Murphy from his young glory years when he was hysterical. No such luck here. Murphy is fast talking but, unfortunately, not too funny. The same can be said for this lukewarm effort.

You! Me! Listening!By Jamie canField,
Program director at KSKi 103.7
Back in 2008, I discov-ered a band from Car-diff, Wales, named Los
Campesinos! and their debut CD Hold On Now, Youngster… Los Campesinos! play ultra-intel-ligent, cheeky indie-pop, and a glockenspiel is included in their instrumental arsenal. I’m a sucker for a band with a glocken-spiel. I’m also a sucker for bands who play danceable music at break-neck speed with amusing lyrics, and song names like “This Is How You Spell HAHAHA,” “We Destroyed the Hopes and Dreams of a Generation of Faux-Romantics” and “…And We Exhale and Roll Our Eyes
In Unison.” It helps if all seven of the band members are really good at what they do. That’s why I love Los Campesinos!.
After a disappointing third album, Romance Is Boring, Los Campesinos! are back with Hello Sadness, a semi-concept album of songs about a couple breaking up without breaking up. I know, it sounds difficult, but Los Campesinos! are able to explain the concept without losing any of their razor-sharp wit and tongue-in-cheek lyrics. Songs like “By Your Hand,” “Songs About Your Girlfriend” and “The Black Bird, The Dark Slope” show a more focused band showing their maturity, without any fear of careening off course if they need to. With lyrics like
“And it’s a good night For a fist fight, a fist fight Because the dew will temper your fall You’ll sing me lullabies in the form of your cat-calls” you know they take their art seriously, but not too seriously. Maybe you should, too. But not too seriously.

horoscopes
arieS (march 21-april 19). Just because emotions are probably com-ing from a more primitive and ancient part of your brain doesn’t mean that logic should prevail in your life. your best decisions are made because you listen to what your feelings are telling you, even when the logic of those feel-ings doesn’t add up.
tauruS (april 20-may 20). the need to classify and label your experi-ences may be a way of distancing your-self from the full intensity of them. re-sist the habit of trying to fit everything that happens and everyone you en-counter into neat definitions. there’s something wonderful that happens when you accept the mess of life.
gemini (may 21-June 21). Work on building your “faith muscle.” you can exercise it by simply knowing what you believe and believing it. For instance, how about believing that whatever happens, you can pick up the pieces and start over? When you know this is true, you won’t be afraid to take the risks necessary to live life to the fullest.
cancer (June 22-July 22). your lim-itations may be mostly self-created, but that’s not to say you didn’t have help constructing the roadblocks and barriers that hold you back. So why not get a little help with obliterating them? a powerful ally will gladly part-ner with you this week to bring down the obstacle in your path to success.
leo (July 23-aug. 22). you might not feel like following anyone’s advice
-- and not because you’re stubborn, but because something inside you is holding back. maybe you fear nearby swindlers or are overwhelmed by an ocean of information. Honor your feelings. you’ll know when it’s time to open yourself up to external guid-ance.
Virgo (aug. 23-Sept. 22). your knee-jerk reaction may be to come up with an excuse as to why you can’t cre-ate a certain dynamic. Within the ex-cuse is your golden ticket. the excuse is another way of stating a belief you hold that is keeping you from what you want. Being aware of the belief is the first step to changing it.
liBra (Sept. 23-oct. 23). low expectations can be a self-fulfill-ing prophecy. High expectations can breed stress and narrow-mindedness. the best way is to have zero expecta-tions. if you can practice the Zen art of being free of assumptions, expec-tations and attachments, you will see the true range of opportunity that lies within every situation.
ScorPio (oct. 24-nov. 21). Some-thing menial will prove well worth learning. this could be a word you didn’t know the meaning of but final-ly understand, or a mundane action you’ve yet to master, such as flossing, that gets your attention and ultimately saves you from future hassles.
SagittariuS (nov. 22-dec. 21). your interests and influences are so varied that there are those who will find you extremely difficult to catego-
rize. let them try. there’s a benefit to your baffling persona: you’ll be memo-rable while others fade into the back-ground. Because you stand out, you’ll be given more opportunities.
caPricorn (dec. 22-Jan. 19). your decisions are firm, but not final. that’s the way it has to be now. it’s impor-tant to come across with as much con-fidence as you can muster, and with full knowledge that things will change and you will adapt to those changes. it’s called intelligent diplomacy.
aQuariuS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). you have a talent for turning a difficult situation into a beautiful one. this is accomplished in part by sharing your feelings. also, you’re not afraid to be vulnerable, and you allow intimacy be-tween you and those you love to grow naturally out of your shared frailty. this is what it means to be human.
PiSceS (Feb. 19-march 20). you like being challenged, but this week it might feel like the world is resist-ing more than is really necessary for a good game. When things seem overly tough, instead of fighting the currents, turn around and go with the flow. you’ll still get where you’re going, but you’ll take a different and easier route.
tHiS WeeK’S BirtHdayS: you will be brave and live large. With your ex-terior and interior images in sync, you rise to the level to which you aspire. in February and march, you learn skills that either earn you more money or make your dollar stretch further.

The Salmon river inside and out
the december meeting of trout unlimited is thursday, dec. 1 and in-cludes guest speaker Jerry myers, Western Watersheds Project, upper Salmon project manager. as usual, it is from 5 to 7 p.m. at the roosevelt grille in Ketchum, and admission is free.
Steelhead are an ocean-run rain-bow trout with a reputation as a world-class freshwater sport fish. these fish are elusive, and the most dedicated anglers spend countless hours trying to catch them. For true anglers, the al-lure of steelhead fishing is the journey. yet, nothing quite matches the thrill of a steelhead’s hard tug, then watching it leap and fight your line.
the steelhead season will continue to be open until the end of april. next spring is expected to continue to be good while fish in the river move up to their spawning areas.
myers will give a general talk, with photos, on steelhead and the status of steelhead conservation on the Salmon river.

Sun: Why did you choose this recipe?
Margot: Oh, yum!!!! My guests at my “ole” Paso Robles, Calif., bed and breakfast inn all loved this one; some liked it even more than my Finnish Pancakes (featured in the Sun’s 11/09/11 issue). And then there was the guest from New Orleans who gave me the additional great idea of an “extra” to add to this particular recipe: pecans, of course, being a New Orleans thing (he even sent me pecans). It’s always so much fun when someone opens your mind to new possibilities. This recipe does not necessarily need additional syrup when serving (however, some sweet-toothers do like that addition); for my taste, a fresh berry or peach side dish or top-
ping is always a good choice to present. I also usually serve this dish along with my “Canadian Bacon a la Rosemary” and my “Everything-But-The-Kitchen-Sink Scrambled Eggs” (recipes forthcoming soon).
Sun: What do you like best about guest innkeeping at an inn or even at a private residence here in town?
Margot: Innkeeping/sitting is not for everyone because it truly is 24/7; you do have to give up a great deal of your privacy, but I’ve never minded that. I’ve always felt that my guests are like family—the good kind. I think that probably the most vi-tal attribute that one must have for this profession is that of truly being able to enjoy and accept people as they are; and to see
that everyone has a very special story to tell. This never-ever boring career offers the perfect enjoyment and variety that I love in life—including rolling with the most interesting and unique punches (not physical, of course). Additionally, creative and pas-sionate cooking is one of my most favorite pastimes and luckily is a very important part of this career.

French Toast a La Créme Bruleé by Margot Van Horn
In a small heavy saucepan, melt butter and add brown sugar and corn syrup (can be the dark or light kind) over moderate heat, stirring until smooth. Pour into a 13-by-9-by-2-inch baking dish that has been sprayed with Pam (and add, if you crave however many you wish, of some crushed or even whole pecans). Arrange bread slices in one layer in baking dish on top of brown sugar/butter/corn syrup mix (pecan mixture), squeezing the slices slightly to fit.
In a bowl or blender, whisk/beat together eggs, half & half, vanilla, Grand Marnier and salt until well combined. Pour evenly over bread. Chill bread mixture, covered, at least 8 hours ahead and up to one day.
Preheat oven to 350° F., and bring bread mixture to room temp.Bake bread mixture, uncovered, in middle of oven till puffed and edges are pale golden—
about 35 to 40 minutes. If the top of the bread at the end is not brown enough for your taste, turn on the broiler for a couple of seconds—but watch CAREFULLY because the browning can go faster than you think.
Sprinkle with powered sugar and serve immediately with cut fresh fruit, preserves and/or maple syrup on the side.

SlOw cOOkER cOOkiNgKathryn Guylay took her
expertise to The Hunger Coali-tion last week, teaching a Slow Cooker Cooking 101 class to a couple dozen men and women.
In the space of an hour, she showed them how to make a crockpot casserole, soup and overnight oatmeal that could be just as easily comprised of quinoa, buckwheat, millet, rice or barley.
As she talked, she easily switched back and forth between English and Spanish, utilizing a fluency she gained while study-ing at a university in Mexico.
Guylay told the class that there are two cooking gadgets she can’t live without—a rice cooker, which can be used for grains, lentils and vegetables, and a slow cooker.
Her slow cooker enables her to prepare healthy meals for her family when she has no time, she says. When she’s not using it to cook a meal, she’s using it to cook squash and other foods that she then purees and freezes for soups.
“I’m a busy mom and I don’t have a lot of time to spend in the kitchen, so this is a life-saver,” she said. “I can wake up in the morning and say, ‘What veg-etables do I have? What season-ings do I have? What liquids do I have?’ Don’t be afraid to try something. As long as you have enough liquid, it’s not going to be a disaster.”
The slow cooker comes in handy even for breakfast, Guylay said.
“It’s extremely important to eat breakfast, as it regulates your blood sugar after you’ve fasted all night. But one of the biggest reasons people don’t eat breakfast is because they don’t have time. That’s where a slow cooker comes in.”
Anything goes with oatmeal or other grains, she added: “My son likes oatmeal with peanut butter and apple.”
While she taught the adults, her husband Jeff, children Elena and Alexander and five Com-munity School eighth-graders taught children how to make a breakfast pizza out of whole grain tortillas, sunbutter made of sunflower seeds, bananas and raisins.
“What kids love about it is they can make their own break-fast,” Guylay said. “If kids make it, they’ll eat it.”
At the end, Guylay gave each of the participants a slow cooker, courtesy of Hamilton Beach. Hamilton Beach has been donat-ing slow cookers to her Nurture project in Chicago.
Guylay said she was stoked by how engaged the workshop par-ticipants were: “I love interact-ing with the people and helping them to make small changes in the direction of better health that really add up over time.”
REciPEHere’s a Veggie and Brown
Rice Burrito Bowl recipe that Kathryn Guylay and her daughter Elena concocted. The dish’s secret ingredient is cream cheese, Guylay said. And it’s a good way to get kids to eat squash.
Veggie and Brown Rice Bur-rito Bowl
1 cup frozen corn1 15-oz. can of no-salt-added
black beans, rinsed1 15- or 16-oz. jar of salsa1 red or yellow bell pepper,
seeded and diced1 zucchini, cut into quarters1 summer squash, cut into
quarters4 oz. cream cheese cut into
½-inch cubes4 cups brown rice, cookedPlace all ingredients except
the brown rice in a slow cooker and cook on low for several hours. Serve cooked veggies over brown rice and sprinkle with cheddar or jack cheese, if desired. To change it up, use quinoa instead of brown rice. Or, make a fiesta salad by serving the veggies over a bed of mixed greens with sliced avocado and cheddar cheese.
Makes 8 servings.

Gallery Features Humorous Menagerie of Kevin Sloan’s
By Karen BoSSicK
Kevin Sloan took a second look at the way paint-ers portrayed the Age of
Discovery.Then he painted his own ver-
sion of the exotic discoveries that came to light as the Portuguese and Spanish explored Africa, the Americas, Asia and Oceana.
The result: a menagerie of col-orful, whimsical paintings fea-turing such stories lines as that of a bee and dragonfly tapping into a stack of fruit… a monkey dropping coins on an ibis… a rabbit enjoying the spoils of his plunder... hummingbirds holding time in their beaks…
Sloan’s magic realism will be on view at Gilman Contempo-rary, 661 Sun Valley Road, for Friday’s Thanksgiving Gallery Walk.
The Santa Fe artist’s work hangs in many public and mu-seum collections, including that of Chase Manhattan Bank, Hall-mark Corporation and Tucson Museum of Art.
Ketchum galleries will throw their doors open for the free walk from 5 to 8 p.m., giving art fans a chance to see the latest artwork, visit with some of the artists and enjoy refreshments.
Casey Hanrahan, Gilman’s manager, says she can’t wait to see how viewers will respond to Sloan’s latest work: “He starts with things based on history and gives them his own whimsical touch. There are so many differ-ent things in each painting that you can look at them for a couple of days and still find something new a few days later.”
Here are some other high-lights of this month’s walk:
Gail Severn Gallery, 400 First Ave. N., will feature some of Michael Gregory’s newest paintings of barns and silos—al-ways a favorite among Gallery Walkers. Gregory’s piece is part of “A Sense of Place XVI,” the 15th annual group exhibition of landscape artists that includes Victoria Adams, James Cook, Ted Waddell, Laura McPhee and Tony Foster.
A second exhibition, “Marks
and Conversations III,” presents contemporary paintings and sculpture by Margaret Keelan, Julie Speidel, Jun Kaneko, Gary Komarin, Squeak Carnwatch, Kris Cox, Raphaelle Goethals and Cole Morgan.
And a third exhibition, “Nature,” features the works of Brad Rude, Chris Reilly, Allison Stewart, Ed Musante and Jane Rosen.
Frederic Boloix Gallery will show its collection of Fran-coise Gilot, Salustiano and other artists in a new location: The Galleria building on 4th Street and Leadville Avenue across from Atkinsons’ Market.
Gallery DeNovo, 320 1st Ave., will feature mixed-media paintings and monoprints by poet and artist Cynthia Fusillo titled “Language of Layers.” Fusillo, who is American born but now living and working in Barcelona, speaks five languages
and has a masters’ degree in art and psychology.
Sun Valley Center for the Arts, Fifth and Washington streets, offers one more chance to see “Awkward Stage”—its project exploring what it means to be a teen-ager in the 21st cen-tury. The project includes cast models of local teens in sheep’s clothing created by Hailey artist Pamela DeTuncq.
Ochi Gallery, 350 Walnut Ave., will feature a Young Col-lector Show designed for those who are interested in buying art but may not know how to get started. The gallery carries such artists as Alison Van Pelt and Erin Rachel Hudak.
Kneeland Gallery, 217 1st Ave. N., will present a group exhibition featuring landscapes of this area rendered in pastel by Idaho native James Palmer-sheim and figurative ice skating scenes from Scott Switzer. It will also include Lona Hymas-Smith’s most recent woodcarving of a Western tanager and intro-duce the grizzly bear and wolf studies that local artist Debbie Edgers-Sturges painted during a recent trip to Alaska.
Harvey Art Projects, 391 First Ave. N., features aboriginal art from the Papunya Tula art-ists of the Australian outback.
Broschofsky Galleries,
360 East Ave., features contem-porary and historical Western art, including that of landscape painter Russell Chatham.
Friesen Gallery, 320 1st Ave. N., will feature Jill Lear’s paint-ings of trees that explore the themes of proportion and space in an exhibition titled “Place and Space.” Lear uses such mediums as charcoal and egg tempera as she balances the chunky powerful bases of trees’ root and trunk systems with lighter, more graceful lines.
David M. Norton Gallery, 511 Sun Valley Road, features Western paintings.
Mountain Images Gallery, 400 Sun Valley Road, features local landscape photographs by James Bourret.
Toneri-Hink Gallery, 400 Sun Valley Road, features the amazing, whimsical wood bar-stools, lamps and other furniture by R.C. Hink, as well as water-color landscapes and wildlife by Lynn Toneri.
First Avenue Contempo-rary Gallery, 360 First Ave, features abstract art.
Expressions, 360 East Ave., features the realistic, historical Western bronzes of Dave Mc-Gary.

Nordic skiers flocked to the North Valley Trails north of Ketchum over the weekend after a couple of storms dumped nearly a foot of snow in places. The Blaine County Recreation District has not yet started grooming the bike path. But it is grooming the entire length of
the Harriman Trail with a snowmobile, as well as part of the Prairie Creek Loop and a handful of trails around Galena Lodge. The best skiing is from Prairie Creek north. The southernmost part of the Harriman Trail is best left for classical skiing because of its narrow width and the grasses sticking through.

What do some people do to get in shape for skiing? Just ask Muffy Ritz, Cindi Scott, Robin Potts, Diana Wadsack, Denise Blahut, Dorrie Marks and Joney Otteson. They and
Brenda Spackman received VAMPS Champs T-shirts for completing a rigmarole that included 1,500 pushups, one hour’s worth of wall sit-ting, one hour of standing on one leg with their eyes closed, one hour exercising their abs with the plank, walking, running or bicycling for three hours non-stop twice and, yes, ice skating. They did all this plus more in four weeks. Thirty-five other women completed the chal-lenge in eight weeks.

THE LIST financial planning
By mary caldWell, u.S. BanK SaleS & SerVice manager
Traveling over the holidays and don’t want to wake up in the middle of the
night wondering if you dropped those payments in the mailbox on the way out of town? Forget to purchase stamps or meet the post office’s cut-off time so that your bills get payment on time? Having your bills set up to be paid online might solve those issues. Hard to believe, but U.S. Bank’s Online Bill Pay service was first launched more than 17 years ago!
In 2010 it was reported that 90.5 million households in the United States had a computer with Internet access, with 60 percent using online banking, and of those, 30 percent using online banking with bill pay. Pew Internet’s 2009 study noted that 39 percent of people age 65 and over, and 52 percent of peo-ple age 50-64, bank online. This number climbs to 66 percent for the age group 30-49.
U.S. Bank Branch and 24-Hour Customer Service bankers are encouraging our customers to learn how simple, convenient and green it is to pay bills online, as well as support a worthwhile charitable cause in the process.
With U.S. Bank’s Bill Pay Giving program, customers who
have a checking account, enroll in Bill Pay for the first time with the help of a U.S. Bank repre-sentative and agree to make a $1 donation to one of four great causes (Disaster Relief, Environ-mental Protection, Hunger and Poverty, Education and Arts), will be rewarded with $10. If they use Bill Pay three more times in the next 60 calendar days, they receive another $20 credit to their checking account.
Some of the answers to the most popular questions we get about Bill Pay include: Yes, it’s safe; bills can be set up for the first time to be paid within 1-2 days if scheduled before 5 p.m., E.T.; and funds are deducted when the check is cashed.
So, if you’ve not already joined the millions of folks that already pay their bills online, make it a New Year’s resolution to do so. We’d be happy to show you how.

the Forest Service is proposing to authorize three existing outfitters; Sun Valley trekking, Sawtooth moun-tain guides, and Sun Valley Helicopter Ski guides to guide customers on Bald mountain both in- and out-of-bounds.
according to Joe miczulski (mi∙cHul∙SKi), recreation Forester for the Ketchum ranger district, “We are very interested to learn if there are any issues of public concern that we need to address in our analysis before deciding whether or not to authorize this additional outfitted use, and if ad-ditional use is authorized, under what
terms and conditions.”the outfitter’s joint proposal, in-
cluding a map of the proposed oper-ating area, is available at the Ketchum ranger Station, 206 Sun Valley road, in Ketchum.
to be the most helpful, miczul-ski would like to receive written com-ments by december 16, 2011. com-ments should be sent to: Ketchum ranger district, P.o. Box 2356, Ket-chum, id 83340; attn: Joe miczulski. comments may also be e-mailed to [email protected]

Sun Valley’s Fran Jewell, owner of Positive Puppy dog training, llc, was recently featured in examiner.com in an article on the best way to socialize puppies.
Jewell recommends making “your puppy your first priority. the first 16 weeks of his life are the ones where you will have the most influence and dramatically set your puppy up for success for the rest of his life.” So why not have a puppy party and invite friends and family over to meet the new puppy. and if any of your friends have a safe, older dog, ask them to bring him along.”
the complete article is available at http://www.examiner.com/dog-rescue-in-seattle/5-ways-to-socialize-your-dog.
Jewell is idaho’s only resident to hold the certified dog behavior con-sultant designation from the interna-tional association of animal Behavior consultants. She also is an evaluator
for the american Kennel club’s canine good citizen and S.t.a.r. Puppy pro-grams. She has been a dog trainer and instructor for more than 25 years.

Up the VolumeI hadn't realized how funny it
was to be around my grandpar-ents until I recently flew out tovisit them. They both have hadtrouble with their hearing overthe years and now need to wearhearing aids full time. However,they rarely put them in when theyconverse with each other.
This was apparent one morn-ing at breakfast. As we all satdown at their outside table, mygrandmother commented, "Itsure is windy."
My grandfather, obviouslymishearing her, replied,"Wednesday? I think it'sThursday."
I laughed even harder whenmy grandmother stood up andsaid, "I'm thirsty too. I'll go getus some drinks."

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,After 40 years of working as asalesman, my husband hasretired. However, he's not thetype of person who can sit idle.In fact, I think he needs a part-time job to get him out of thehouse. Yet instead of getting ajob, he's falling back on his sell-ing skills. Last month hebought a hot tub through theclassified ads thinking it wassomething we should own inretirement. After two weeks hedecided it was too much workand resold it, but at a $500 prof-it. This started the problem.He's come up with the idea ofbuying things in the classifiedads and reselling them for aprofit. Although it sounds goodin theory, I don't think it willwork. Plus, it won't get him outof the house. How do Iconvince him that thehot tub sale was afluke and he needs adifferent part-time job?
• • •Carry: Well if you're look-
ing for someone to say shoppingthe classifieds is a waste of time,you've come to the wrong guys.
Cash: We like to think of classi-fied shopping as a hobby though,not necessarily a part-time job.
Carry: Buying and selling items
found in the classifieds can be quiteprofitable. If you learn how to pur-chase items at a low enough price,then you can often resell them for aprofit, providing you took care ofthem.
Cash: However, it does dependon the type of items you purchase.Some things hold their value betterthan others. Typically larger items,like boats or motorcycles, have agreater potential for profit over lessexpensive items like householdappliances.
Carry: If your husband is thetype of person who reads the classi-fieds daily, he may be able to spotthe deals when they are advertised.Considering his previous employ-
ment, buying and selling may comenatural to him.
Cash: Before you encourageyour husband to find a new part-time job, you may want to give hima little more time to explore hisretirement. It can be a dramaticchange in lifestyle and requiresome time to adjust.
Carry: Exploring new ideas maylead to new interests. And consid-ering his recent purchase of a hottub, you never know what willshow up next.
Cash: If you'd like to get himout of the house, consider sharingin his new adventures. After all,retirement should be about havingfun together.
job dream of the day they'll retire,kick back and relax - or do they?An AARP survey of workingadults age 45 to 70, 70% said theywanted to continue working atleast part-time or never retire atall. Of those surveyed, 86% saidworking helps keep them healthyand active. This is good news forthe employers since by 2014 near-ly one-third of the total U.S. work-force will be age 50 or older. Retirement is Ageless
The goal for many people use tobe to reach age 65, retire and liveout the golden years in perpetualrest and relaxation. However,today's attitudes are changing andnew terms are emerging such as"third age", "next step" and"encore career". People over age65 are continuing to work, partlydue to financial resources, but alsodue to a desire to keep active.Fortunately, the "encore careers"are typically more purposeful andrewarding than previous jobs.And with an expected 66 millionpeople to be over age 65 by 2025,that should be a much happierworkforce.
