Chef Taite Pearson, slicing up some heirloom tomatoes in the kitchen of SEGO Restaurant, will offer his vision of the future at the Sun Valley Harvest Festival.

Mighty fine food and wineSun Valley
Harvest Festival this weekend
By KAREN BOSSICK
Chef Taite Pearson professes a wish that sounds contradictory to
those working in the restaurant industry.
We should all be eating more home-cooked food, said the SEGO Restaurant chef.
It’s the right thing to do, espe-cially if those doing so achieve better nutrition from eating fresh things grown locally. It’s good for the environment. And
it helps restaurants like his because it would give local pro-ducers like Lava Lake Lamb and Ca-Bull Elk the incentive to sell more fresh meat and offer more variety in produce, he says.
“Freezing breaks down the tis-sue of meat. Thawing lets out 50 percent of the flavor that could have been retained. Europeans know what flavor is because they buy their eggs fresh. They cook with vegetables and fruit they bought that day at the street market,” said Pearson, who doesn’t even have a freezer in his restaurant save for a small stand-up unit used to store ice cream.
Pearson will try to convince the masses that fresh, locally-
produced foods taste better at this weekend’s Sun Valley Har-vest Festival.
The festival will kick off at 11 a.m. Friday with cooking dem-onstrations and a culinary trade show featuring regional farmers, producers and vendors at Carol’s Dollar Mountain Lodge.
A Restaurant Walk that evening will give festival-goers a chance to stroll from restaurant to restaurant, sampling tastings paired with regional wines and beers.

9 new, 1 freshBy LESLIE THOMPSON
Ten Hailey businesses invite you to party with them this Friday, Sept. 24 at 4 p.m., as they kick off the Rockin’ the
Block Party to celebrate the opening of nine new businesses and the facelift of one more.
The Yellow Brick Road will be opening in the former space of the Vintage Gypsy in the Old Town Mercantile building. Seven busi-nesses will cohabitate that space to bring one-stop shopping to a whole new meaning. The businesses that will be located in that space are Board Bin, Iconoclast Books, Ketchum Bed & Bath, Jewelry by Lisa, Sun Valley Shoes, Tater Tots and the Vintage Gypsy.
There will be discounts, refreshments, and Sun Valley Hoops will energize shoppers with hoopin’ on site.
The celebration continues down Bullion Street with a stop at Aqua Pro Pool and Spa, who is celebrating their recent renovation, and inviting you to stop by for hot dogs while checking out their new digs.
Then, let your feet take you west across Main Street to continue the celebration at Red Door Design House, where you can indulge on food from 310 Main and check out the Silpada Jewelry trunk show.
And, don’t forget to get over to Chic Nail Boutique, where new owner Kelly Moreland says you can relax with a glass of wine, a $5 nail polish change and a free makeover by Noelle Hodge-Willett. twp

theweeklypaper • 3Wednesday 9.22.10 Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live.
It’s a simple walk. But each step strives for the day when no one will have to
stop walking because they have multiple sclerosis.
The Sixth Annual MS Walk will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday at Ketchum’s For-est Service Park. The walk, which kicks off with regis-tration at 9 a.m., is open to everyone—from moms and dads to kids and dogs.
“Last year we had 125 people and it was really a fun, laid-back event,” said organizer Nancy Ferries. “Dogs are wel-come. There’ll be a free lunch and prizes. And there’s no entry fee, although dona-tions are most welcome.”
Ferries has a personal connection with MS. Her stepdaughter Ann Neary, who works at Woodside Elementary School, was diagnosed with MS at age 21. Even though that was 20 years ago, there were no drugs to treat MS at the time and she has lost some of her physical ability, as a result.
Ferries’ stepson Tom Ferries, who helped found the Chums eyewear retainers business, was diagnosed five years ago and an aggressive treatment made possible by the research of the past 20 years has helped him remain symp-tom-free.
This year’s walk will be held in memory of former ski racer Jimmy Heuga, a bronze medalist in the 1964 Olympics, who died Feb. 8. The Basque man was diagnosed with MS in 1970 at age 26 at the height of his ski rac-ing career. He had already been named to his second Olympics team.
Heuga rebelled against the medical establishment, which advised him against physical activity and developed his own
program of exercise, nutrition and mental motivation to manage his condition and preserve his health. His Heuga Center for Multiple Sclerosis in Colorado, which has
been renamed Can-Do Multiple Sclerosis, continues to seek out new treatment therapies for those with MS.
Ferries and her husband, Chuck Fer-ries, who was on the Olympic ski team with Heuga, were among the Sun Valley resi-dents who used to lap Lower Warm Springs during Heuga’s Ski Express races in the 1980s to raise funds for MS research.
“He was an amaz-ing Olympic medalist and champion, but his accomplishments in the fight against MS and the ‘can-do’ philosophy that he instilled in others will continue to help so many people live their lives,” said Nancy Ferries. “He changed the way people thought about the disease. So we hope people will come out on Sept. 25 and honor Jimmy by walking for MS.”
MS Walk in memory of HeugaFootball builds communityAlthough it is open to conjec-
ture, football has prob-ably replaced baseball
as America’s number one sport. To fill that niche, the Wood River Youth Football program has spent the last twelve years giving Wood River valley boys the oppor-tunity to challenge themselves and learn to love the sport. The program’s ages are from 7 to 12 years old. According to the program’s director Ken Ward “it’s a game where young men can experience the highest lev-els of competition as well as the fact that the essence of the game is contact. Young boys like to get their aggression out. Also once they turn 18 years old they will never play tackle football again in their lives. They’ll never have the opportunity to put on pads and hit someone again. I love the physicality and these boys have nowhere to get it. I’ve been in it for twelve years and all I’ve seen is one broken ankle and one broken arm. Statistically it’s a much safer sport than soccer and basketball.”
Now sporting 8 teams the numbers in-volved have jumped from three teams and forty people to now a number over 150. The father of the program was Jim King who at the time was the Middle School athletic director and whose mission was to follow the guidelines set by the Boise program, which was started in 1937. That program was started by the Boise Noon Optimists Club. Their program now numbers 4,500 kids and they supply team insurance, team supplies and basic guide-lines. “Our vision was to provide area youth the opportunity to play football,” said Ward. “We’re not been much of a foot-ball town here. But we wanted the youth involved. In the early eighties our teams filled the seventh and eighth grade pro-grams. We now serve as a feeder program for the varsity and junior varsity which never existed before. We’re trying to cre-ate a football team which is an “every-body plays” program. Our success is that we’re very well run and that we’re very consistent – which is the key. We have the best kind of board. There are three people and two are mostly absent,” he says with
a laugh. “We have a five point mission statement. It’s been the
same since we started and it’s strictly adhered to. It makes running the program very easy. Our biggest goal is that the football community parents want us moving in
the right direction. Because of consistency we always know
what to expect. If a coach comes here and wants to run his own of-
fense we just say no thanks. The coach isn’t forced to do anything. We run things the same way every year.”
The teams plays seven games ev-ery year with four of them being home Saturdays. Eight teams from Boise will show up and they bring a lot of people along with them. “The games bring a great economic boom to the valley. They bring about 600 people here to enjoy shops and restaurants. They also spend the night and contribute a lot.” The next home matchups will be October 2 and the 16th. Eight teams will compete for most of the day with there being three games at a time being played. The teams play under Idaho State Rules with a full staff of referees for all levels. “We have a very professional look on the field. We’re very proud of it. It makes us the envy of all the outside districts,” said Ward.
To pay for this the kids work hard. Besides registration fees’ fifty percent of what runs this not-for-profit organiza-tion is $15 cards offering great valley wide discounts that team members sell themselves. The other fifty percent come from corporate donations – like Power Engineers, which has as a benefit the company’s banner displayed at home games. (Info: Troy Thayer at 720-1975).
Ward served as a coach for 9 years and now serves as a mentor to incoming coaches. “I still stay around because it’s the only way to be around young kids and families. It keeps me vibrant. The kids like someone else in their lives besides parents. We also have a cheer program that gets over twenty girls involved. We want to build a community so that when the kids move up they all stay together.”

Rowsey helps honor volunteers Normally, volunteers are
content to take satisfac-tion in knowing they did
something to benefit others.But last Wednesday about 30
of The Advocates’ volunteers got a tangible reward, as well.
They were the beneficiaries of a free lunch prepared by Scott and Anne Mason at the Ketchum Grill and topped off with an elegant panna cotta sporting plump Oregon blackber-ries the size of thimbles.
And they re-ceived a reminder from Company of Fools’ R.L. Rowsey about why they do what they do.
“What we say, what we do does make a difference in people’s lives,” he told them.
Rowsey described how he used to accompany the youth group from his Baptist church in Rich-mond, Va., each summer into the inner city for a three-day Vacation Bible School. On one occasion he decided to befriend a youngster who didn’t talk, deter-mined that he would prompt the boy to talk.
“When it came time for the bus to take them home on the last day, I thought I was a fail-ure because he still hadn’t said a word,” recalled Rowsey.
But as the boy left, his little black hand pressed a card framed by pipe cleaner into R.L.’s hand.
“I like you,” it said.“I realized then that though
Evan hadn’t talked, we had communicated. He laughed, he nodded his head to the music. I’m lucky that he gave me that reminder,” Rowsey said.
Volunteers don’t always get reminders or acknowledgements that what they do counts, Row-sey added: “But it’s important for me to say to you that what you do matters.”
About 125 volunteers donated more than 4,000 hours of work to The Advocates last year, helping with fundraising and community education events, working in The Advocates Attic thrift store, providing legal services and do-ing office work, said Advocates Director Tricia Swartling. That added up to about $82,000 of donated services, she added.
The volunteers enabled The
Advocates’ workers to take care of business, which included field-ing 11,667 requests for service, attending to 5,000 walk-ins, distributing $11,000 worth of clothing and household items to people in need and provid-ing 2,500 nights of shelter to 40 women and 35 children.
“Volunteers are the back-bone of not only this, but any non-profit,” observed Advocates Board President Margery Fried-lander.
Among those volunteering was Brian Cross, whose Cross Valley Cleaning gave the shelter carpet a free scrubbing.
“It was a good cause and I could do it for free so I did,” he said. “Everyone should have a clean carpet.”

Mike Kelly, longtime par-ticipant and rider in the Wood River Valley Toy
Run, wants to remind the com-munity that the 18th Annual Toy Run is happening this Saturday, Sept. 25.
The Toy Run raises donations that help families in need during the rapidly approaching holiday season. Last year, together with the Sawtooth Board of Realtors’ Community Holiday Baskets program, they gave away over 350 food baskets, 900 toys, clothes, toothbrushes, winter gear, and more to local children and families.
Here’s how it works: people bring new, unopened toys to the starting point of the ride, between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. at Grumpy’s in Ketchum. The re-quested donation is one toy ($15 minimum), and their goal is at
least one toy per bike — depend-ing on the weather, they could have 50 to 175 motorcyclists.
If you shop locally for the toys you will get discounts: 15 percent at The Toy Store in Ket-chum and Hailey and 10 percent at King’s in Hailey.
Motorcyclists leave Grumpy’s at 1 p.m. sharp for a ride to The Wicked Spud in Hailey, where they drop off their toys and then ride on to the Silver Dollar in Bellevue to continue fundrais-ing for the event. Starting at 3 p.m. at the Silver Dollar, there will be a raffle and live auction, complimented by a free barbecue and live music by Slow Chil-dren Playing in the afternoon, followed by Straight Up in the evening.
For more info on supporting this cause, which directly ben-efits the community we live in, contact Mike Kelly at 788-1642 or 721-1136.

Mike Scullion loves music and wants
to introduce the Wood River Valley to the full range of styles on today’s market. “I’ve lived in places where music tastes are re-ally varied. I want to bring that variety here: from country to classical jazz and ska (a kind of reggae) to indie rock.” And so, Mike is creating a full power, educa-tional radio station that will be heard from Galena Summit to Timmerman Hill.
The station, KDPI (89.3 on your dial), will be non-com-mercial, self-sustaining after the first year, and commu-nity operated. It will live at the Wood River Community Y and broadcast from an antenna atop Bald Mountain. “The path to this station has taken lots of planning but things have just come together,” beams Mike, a bear of a man with a soft-spoken demeanor. If the trend continues, KDPI will start broadcasting sometime in June 2011. “It’s a dream come true,” Mike says, “a passion born from a stint in 1998 on KSKI when I broadcast pro-gressive music for a few months. It was my answer to what, at the time, was rather commercial and generic music.”
Mike came to the valley in 1991 to ponder his life at the age of 29. “I was in sales and marketing for the Wall Street Journal in L.A.,” he says. “Sit-ting in a traffic jam for an hour one day I thought, ‘This isn’t it.’” A friend living in Sun Valley invited him to visit. As Mike explains it, “I came out here to figure out my next move. It turns out this was my next move.”
A bartending job or two led to managing the Mint for Bruce Willis until family issues called Mike to Philadelphia in 2000. Coincidentally, the Prometheus Radio Project is located there, a non-profit that champions free, diverse, and democratic media in response to the impact of media consolidation and its lack of content diversity. A talk with the Project’s head confirmed Mike’s thought that our valley was ripe for such an enterprise.
In 2006, as he was moving back to Ket-
chum, Prometheus notified Mike that the FCC had opened a two-week window for commu-nities to apply for a
full power broadcast license. He needed a local non-profit spon-sor ASAP and, after several turn-downs, got a “Yes” from the
Y. FCC approval came this past March
along with a construction permit to proceed.
Mike describes KDPI as “listener supported, drop-in radio” that will broadcast from 7 am to 10 pm, covering music, news, education, the environ-ment, business, arts and culture. His morning music show will be followed by programming from local volunteers, in line with KDPI’s tag line, “Where the locals get vocal.”
Mike intends for KDPI to help bridge the north-south valley gap through programming relevant to the entire community, not just circumscribed sectors. He ex-plains, “This is one community where everyone must thrive. The station will pursue balanced, objective programs that reflect the broad range of community interests and tastes.”
Mike’s next step is to write a business plan and raise $275,000 for equipment, renova-tions to the Y’s studio, and the first year of programming. Once it’s underway, the station will be self-sustaining, providing four new jobs to the community funded by members, sponsors, benefits, and grants.
“I’ve always had an unsettled feeling – like there was some one thing I should be doing with my life,” muses Mike, “but I didn’t know what. Now, I do. And the station is a gift I want to give back to a community that has become my first real home.”
KDPI will hold information sessions on October 2 and 9 in Hailey and Ketchum respective-ly, followed by a live music fund-raiser in December. Look for the events and plan to participate!

SBG’s garden dedication celebrates the fifth anniversary of Garden of Infinite Compassion
Three-garden party honors
Montane, Alpine
By KAREN BOSSICK
It was a garden party. And the star was the garden. Make that three gardens.
A hundred people turned out last Wednesday evening to toast the completion of two new gardens at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden and celebrate the fifth anniver-sary of the Garden of Infinite Compassion built to honor the Dalai Lama’s visit to Sun Valley.
“Several weeks ago I asked everyone attending Gimlets in the Garden to squint and visual-ize a garden here,” said Garden Director Carter Hedberg. “I’m now standing in the garden.”
Hedberg listed the finan-cial contributors—a list that included Marty and Mila Lyon, Katherine Phelan-Britt, Amy and Bill Vanderbilt and Dan and Jody Hunt.
Evergreen contractor John Balint followed that up with a list of those like Joe Matheny of
Joe’s Backhoe Service who had donated countless hours pushing dirt around and hauling rocks, knowing the Garden couldn’t possibly raise the half-million dollars it would have needed otherwise in a poor economy.
“That’s why I moved here,” he said, choking up.
Bill Smith, who’s done some surveying for the garden, looked around the garden and recalled how it was once a sagebrush-cov-ered pasture.
“Now I’ve got a little garden plot over there in the corner with potatoes, zucchini, chard. It’s amazing to see what it’s become.”
The Montane Garden, which characterizes much of the Wood River Valley, features plants that grow at elevations between 5,000 and 8,000 feet. A canopy of pines, firs and aspens provide shade to the understory.
The Alpine Garden is full of perennials that are generally found above treeline—only a few trees have been planted there. They take up to 75 percent less water than traditional landscap-ing, said Board President Marty Lyon.
“At the strategic planning
meeting we held in March, I said I thought we could build the land forms this summer, plant the trees and maybe a few flowers. Certainly, I didn’t envision we’d be able to build the path this year. I’m thrilled,” added Lyon, a landscape architect.
The work isn’t done, Lyon added.
The garden still wants to build a community picnic area and make improvements on existing gardens. Eventually it wants to add three more greenhouses, as well.
“And we still have to build a Lava Rock Garden,” said Lyon.
Marty Lyon, Bruce Smith and Anita Northwood, who shepherded through the Garden of Infinite Compassion, share a laugh during the dedication.

Ride The Divide“Ride The Divide,” an award-win-
ning, feature-length documentary about the world’s longest mountain bike race, continues its debut tour when it drops in on Sun Valley/Ket-chum on Tuesday, Sept. 28 at the Sun Valley Opera House. The film chron-icles the story of several mountain bikers who attempt the 2,711-mile race named the Tour Divide along the Continental Divide in the Rocky Moun-tains.
Ride The Divide embraces the in-spiring stories of three of the racers who experience the immense moun-tain beauty and small-town culture as they attempt to pedal from Banff, Canada, to a small, dusty crossing on the Mexican border.
Ride The Divide made its debut at the Vail Film Festival and was named best adventure film. Outside Magazine proclaimed that “The toughest bike race in the world is not in France.”
Ride The Divide shows at 7:30 p.m. at the Sun Valley Opera House in Sun Valley. Tickets are $10 at the door, and in advance for $13 online at www.ridethedividemovie.com/screenings.

Pioneer Cabin. PHOTO: BALI SZABO/TWP
Actually, we are our own worst enemy — not
natural disasters, predators, or some lethal parasite. One way to il-lustrate this point is to, once again, talk about bacteria. I once mentioned that the wonderful, earthy smell after a rain came from bacteria (actinomycetes) that was decomposing organic mat-ter. This large group contains 1,500 species, a class of which (archae) thrive on and decom-pose all manner of toxins we release into the environment, like the oil in the Gulf, and even radioactive waste.
I’ll never forget a family of four at Pioneer Cabin. It was dinnertime, and the two kids were playing on a grassy bench that extended from the porch. They came running when called, and their father emphatically urged them to wash their hands because, he said, ‘everything out there is germy.’
Though I silently decried his squeamishness, he was right on two counts: washing hands is a great health tip, and there are a lot of bacteria in dirt. In fact, fungal filaments and bacteria make up a third of a soil’s volume, and 90 percent of its biomass. But he was wrong to fear the dirt from the Pio-neers. The forest soil near the cabin is loaded, like garden soil, with antibiotics, which are also actinomycetes. They include penicillium, tetracycline, neo-mycin, several streptomycetes, and candicin. Soil also contains harmful, pathogenic bacteria. Antibiotic microorganisms func-tion as police, and so maintain a soil’s health; they keep things in balance, something we have yet to master. We are excessively germophobic, and so often throw out the baby with the bathwater.
The over-prescription of antibiotics is creat-
ing a crisis of un-treatable infections in our hospitals. By bypassing our immune systems, we short-circuit
the body’s ability to defend us. Our misuse of and dependence on various phar-maceuticals has
created a feedback loop wherein money
trumps sound medicine. Fake diseases abound, along with drugs to treat them. Many phar-maceuticals are counterproduc-tive, but as long as we demand them, the health care industry will continue to supply them. For instance, prescription strength antacids inhibit and/or kill beneficial, acid-loving bacteria in our full bellies that help in the breakdown of what we eat. Recent studies are showing that mycobacterium increases our serotonin levels, the anxiety-reducing ‘happy’ hormone that also helps us concentrate and learn. At a time when electronics are keeping kids locked inside, schools and parents would do well to re-emphasize outdoor activities, which are in sharp decline. Let them, and us, get dirty.
To conclude on a lighter note, dirt is frequently eaten as food among the poor and the desper-ate in places like Haiti and the Sahel. Soil is mixed with fat and some flavoring ingredient and is sold as little round cakes. A woman centenarian was asked her secret to longevity. The an-swer is often ‘alcohol,’ but in this case she said she ate a pound of dirt every day. Cleaned out her system and she never got sick.

From the White House to the Sun Valley
Pavilion.Sun Valley
residents will get to jiggle it to the living legends of gospel music Saturday, Sept. 25, when The Blind Boys of Alabama headline the second Sun Valley Music Festival.
The gospel group from Ala-bama has a time-honored history dating back almost as far as Sun Valley Resort, which is on the brink of celebrating its 75th anniversary.
The group was formed at the Alabama Institute for the Negro Blind in Talladega, Ala., in 1939. They have lost a couple of their founding members along the way. But the group hasn’t missed a beat.
It won the Grammy Award for Best Traditional Soul Gospel Album four of the past several years, received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in
2009 and performed at the White House for
President Obama several months ago. And The Blind Boys continue to get gigs on “The Tonight Show,”
“The Late Show with David Letter-man” and other TV shows and movies, showing that they can keep up with
even Sun Valley’s feisty seniors as the
group jumps and jiggles while performing its infectious gospel music.
Also performing at the festi-val: Bill Sims, Jr. (blues), Lew Soloff (jazz) and the Paul Tillot-son Love Trio — a longtime jazz fixture around both Sun Valley and New York City, this group, is known for its improvisation.
The show starts at 5 p.m. Tickets are $45, available at 208-622-2135 or online at myS-Vfun.com

Horton classes, and art festival
Want to expand your jewelry skills, or make a special holiday gift? Lisa Horton is now offering classes utilizing a relatively new medium, known as metal clay. Horton is a certified metal clay instructor with over five years’ ex-perience working with the clays.
The clays are manufactured by suspending fine particles of silver or bronze in a non-toxic medium, result-ing in material which is easily sculpt-ed, textured, molded, carved, etched or set with stones. Finally, the binder is burned away, resulting in jewelry pieces that are solid metal, which can then be worked with traditional jew-elry techniques.
Horton will offer three class selec-tions this fall, including a three-hour silver “appeteazer” class on Oct. 8. The techniques taught in making a pendant and earrings will be accom-plished with common tools and firing utilizes a “crème brulee” torch.
A class in expanded silver clay tech-niques will be offered Nov. 5, and a bronze clay class will be split between Nov. 19 and Nov. 26. For complete de-scriptions, e-mail [email protected] or call 788-7049. Horton also stocks tools and clays for sale.
To see Horton’s metal clay work, visit her at the Thousand Springs Fes-tival outside of Hagerman on Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 25-26, booth #15.
McFeron & Milner live at the Brewery
Seattle-based, singer/songwriter Ian McFeron has big plans for 2010. This year he is slated to perform over 200 shows, all while functioning as his own independent record label, booking agency, and management company. “The music industry and the economy at large are facing a lot of challenges right now and there is a lot of speculation about when things are going to turn around, and what that will look like. It’s left a lot of people in limbo, wondering which way to go. I figure that’s a good time for musicians to get back to basics and do what they’ve always done: travel the nation, inspire listeners, and build community.”
McFeron takes the stage at the Sun Valley Brewery on Thursday, Sept. 23 at 8 p.m. McFeron will be joined by longtime musical partner Alisa Milner, a Texas-style fiddler, cellist and har-mony vocalist.

eats & entertainment
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your powers of observation and insight are strong this week. Pay careful attention to the questions people ask you. Most questions will reveal more about the person asking than your answer will reveal about you. Reflect the exact same ques-tion back to the asker and you’ll learn something truly interesting.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You might want to rearrange your vi-sion of the past. There’s a lot to let go of. This is true for most people, and you won’t be the only one working on this. Many don’t even have the courage to sort through the old baggage. Commend yourself. The way you see your history is just as important as how it really hap-pened.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You want to make an impression. It’s not because you care so much about what the other person thinks about you. It’s more because there’s something inside you that wants to prove what you can do. Even though you could get by doing much less, you feel that you must make the extra effort needed to rise to the top.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Socially, you’ll walk a fine line. You’re knowledgeable and connected and want to share. However, you also need to be sensitive to the egos of those around you. Acting at all superior to others will arouse antagonism. Remember that like equals like. Focus on the ways in which you are similar to the rest of your group.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You won’t mind the strong personalities around you, and you’ll have no problem complying with a leader’s wishes, even the ones that seem over the top. Tolerance levels for these types of things vary from person to person. Because you are so secure in your own skin, you will flip all challenging situations in your favor.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The state of your community has a daily effect on you, though because it’s in the background, you don’t think about it too often. If you feel good about the water and air quality, and if you feel safe walking down the street, count yourself among the blessed. Offer up assistance for those who can’t say the same.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It could be argued that going out to din-ner or taking a vacation is a waste of money -- what do you have to show for it in the end? This thinking is wrongheaded. Your experi-ences will actually stick with you long after the material goods you could have purchased instead have faded into obscurity.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll pay attention to your routine and notice the ways in which it is lacking. There seems to be enough time to do the work you must do, but very little time to explore options and extras. And yet, it’s those seemingly extraneous activities that allow you to be most creative. Adjust to make more time for them.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You are most fulfilled when put-ting something into the world that wasn’t there before. You do need the right conditions in order to be creative, but it’s not what you think. There is nothing expensive to buy and no place exotic you need to go. It’s a simple, repetitive task that will open you up to inspiration.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your task is interesting this week and will stimulate you on many levels. Take a whirling dervish approach to this work. Gather influences from all 360 degrees of your surround-ings. Instead of being pulled in many directions and spinning out un-controllably, you’ll stay contained and controlled as you spin inward.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Sometimes you cross a goal off of your list because you accomplished it. Other times, you cross it off because it’s been there so long it’s getting old. If it were really the right goal for you, you would have done it by now. Both of these reasons are good. Slash a goal off the list in order to make room for a new one.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re the leader of a group, and this takes thought, energy and effort. By the end of the week, you’ll likely feel that you need a break from being in charge. You want others to operate independent of your direction. This will eventually happen, but for now you still must steer the way.
THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: You’ll connect with loved ones daily this year, and those special bonds are what you will be most proud of. Through the next 10 weeks, your schedule will be as diverse as your interests. You’ll spend time in nature and will also enjoy weeklong cultural experiences. Because of a change in November, your work becomes fascinating to you. And by February, it is of interest to the general public, too. You’ll change your appearance in May, perhaps due to a fitness kick.

Affleck pulls a heist in The Town
The town is Boston. And rarely has a city been so pivotal in a movie. In Ben Affleck’s new crime thriller The Town, Boston serves as the intriguing back-drop to a traditional and very well told heist drama. Actually, it is a specific part of Boston that we’re thrust into – the neighbor-hood called Charlestown. And, as the film tells us at the begin-ning, Charlestown is the home to bank robbers and the craft has been handed down from genera-tion to generation. But as we can also see by the numerous aerial shots, this downtrodden, work-ing-class neighborhood is just a stone’s throw from the glittering city at its edge.
Affleck has talent as a director
and his handling of the three main charac-ters is superb. Be-sides Affleck him-self, that includes the luminescent Rebecca Hall and Jeremy Renner. Hall is one to watch as she impresses again after her fea-tured performance this year in the film Please Give. Renner was simply unforgettable in his breakout performance in The Hurt Locker. He shows he’s not a one-hit-wonder and his per-formance as a sociopathic bank robber pretty much steals the film. Edgy and always danger-ous, his performance is riveting, to say the least. Affleck, through his own direction, merely resus-citates his acting career which up to this date had been D.O.A. Also look for an amazing cameo by the superlative Chris Cooper.
The story is a simple thriller,
but there hasn’t been a heist film as inter-
esting as this one since Heat. Affleck and his crew rob a bank and, in the process, takes Hall as a witness. After releasing
her, and fearful that Renner might kill her,
Affleck begins to tail her and eventually begins to
romance her. Falling in love, Af-fleck needs to choose between his life of crime and a new life free from Boston. In the traditional “last” heist, things go awry and the film builds to an action-packed sequence at Boston’s famed Fenway Park. Affleck handles the action superbly and the sequences are enthralling and far from cliché. The same can be said for his handling of the entire film. It’s impressive and worth seeing.

Max T. Rudolph
Dog in the MangerChapter 28
Back in Los Angeles, Lana was trying to
sort out exactly how she felt about Max Rudolph. Although their relationship had not always been the smoothest, they had always managed to kiss and make up after an altercation. But it was different now—Lana had not been prepared for Max to fall for that doe-eyed ‘goody-two-shoes’ Amy. There had been no argument or misunderstanding between Max and Lana; Max was just drifting farther away with every day he remained in the Wood River Valley. Without even talking to Max, Lana knew she was losing control of their affair and, although she had never been in love with Max, she was NOT prepared to walk away from their ‘friendship’ quite yet.
As far as her relationship with Max was concerned, Lana considered it a suc-cess in that she had cheated on Max fewer times than she had any of the other men with whom she’d been with, long-term. However, Lana’s extended future plans included marrying into significant cash and, even though Max was fairly well off, he just didn’t have, and probably never would have, the kind of currency that could keep Lana happy over the long haul. Nevertheless, he was still the best-looking and most challenging man she’d ever been with; Max Rudolph was definitely ACWB (Arm Candy With Benefits).
Lana’s immediate concern was the call she’d received earlier this week from a friend in Ketchum who reported to her that she’d run into Max at Holli Jewel-ers making what appeared to be a pretty significant purchase. This friend divulged to Lana that she didn’t know exactly what Max had bought at the jewelry store, but it was in a very small box with decidedly elegant wrapping paper. Lana’s friend fur-ther reported that when she had tried to press Leanne at Holli Jewelers as to what Max might have purchased, being the professional that she was, Leanne refused to ‘spill’ that information.
Since Lana and Max had no significant plans to get together soon, Lana had to assume that whatever Max had bought had to be for Amy. Lana decided she didn’t want to sit around and wonder what was going on, so she immediately booked a one-way ticket to Sun Valley so she could confront Max and find out exactly what his plans were.
“…for they are like a dog sleeping in the manger of oxen, for neither does he eat nor does he let the oxen eat.”

There also will be a Harvest Tasting Room and Wine Cellar from 2 to 5 p.m. at Carol’s Dollar Mountain Lodge and a workshop on dry rubs, marinades and simple grilling sauces offered by Sawtooth Club owner Tom Nickel at 4 p.m. at The Roosevelt Bar & Grille.
A Harvest Martini and Caviar Party will be held at 5:30 p.m. at SEGO Restaurant. And chefs’ dinners featuring special Har-vest Festival menus will round out the evening on Saturday.
The festival will feature 15 chefs and presenters prepar-ing Idaho food, wine and spirits in unique ways. They include Viking Chef Vaughn Hobbs, who cooked for such notables as Pres-idents Ford and Carter, Johnny Mathis, Joan Rivers, Sammy Da-vis, Jr., and stars from “Charlie’s Angels” and “Dynasty.”
Also, Kristi Echols-Preston and Chris Preston of Boise’s Chocolat Bar; Moshit Mizrachi-Gabbitas of Boise’s Janjou Patis-serie; comfort food specialist Dustan Bristol of Nampa’s new Brick 29; and John Turenne who transformed the cafeteria at St. Luke’s Wood River Medical Cen-ter from a chicken nugget factory to a green cuisine café.
Cristina Cook of Cristina’s Restaurant will demonstrate how to make Pumpkin Tiramisu;
Ketchum Grill’s Scott Mason will present a demonstration titled “Autumn Foraging from the Forest to the Table.” Bigwood Bread founder Art Wallace, who learned to bake pain au levain in a wood-fired oven at the Bou-langer in France, will present “The Art of Bread.” And the Arid Club’s Alvin Charlton will present a workshop titled “How to Feed Your Friends and Family and Still Enjoy the Party.”
The Sun Valley Harvest Fes-tival grew out of the Sun Valley Food and Wine Festival, which the Sun Valley/Ketchum Cham-ber and Visitors Bureau started a few years ago to take advan-tage of the burgeoning interest in food and wine-related travel.
The Chamber started it with the intention of having someone else take it over. And that hap-pened this year when self-pro-claimed Ketchum foodies Heidi Ottley and Ed Sinnott claimed it for their own. They moved it to fall to better showcase Idaho’s harvest, revamped the format and rechristened it the Sun Val-ley Harvest Festival.
“The best caviar, which ap-parently even gives our Russian friends a run for their money, is raised right here in Bliss, Idaho,” said Ottley. “Pair that with some of our locally pro-duced vodka made in Rigby and you have an amazing party with a great story.”
Ed Sinnott said festival organizers have concentrated on marketing the event to foodies in Boise, Twin Falls and Southern Idaho this year, rather than
taking it nationwide. “This is an Idaho event—Idaho chefs, Idaho foods,” he said.

includes entry to 14 cooking dem-onstrations, access to the Harvest Festival Marketplace, admission to the Restaurant Walk and Idaho Beer Garden for a limited number of free beer tastings, admission to the outdoor grilling demonstration and discounts for golf, spa treat-ments and shopping.

Pearson talks about his new bookIn Harm’s Way, fourth in Ridley
Pearson’s mystery thriller series set
in Sun ValleyBy KAREN BOSSICK
Blaine County Sheriff Walt Fleming is up to his neck in another murder
mystery—this time involving a former steroid-crazed NFL star who made a lot of enemies while abusing drugs.
Only this time the likable sheriff has some help—from Seattle’s legendary detective Lou Boldt.
Hailey’s best-selling detec-tive novelist Ridley Pearson has included both of the detectives he created in his newest book, “In Harm’s Way.”
But not by choice.Lou Boldt, who set his career
on fire, was a walk-in, Pearson insists.
“Sometimes, when you’re writ-ing fiction, you’re not in control. I was writing a chapter where Boldt suddenly appeared—he walked right into the book. I literally looked down at my keys and said, ‘What’s he doing in this book?’ I had to push my chair away and think about it, but he ended up playing a significant role in the book and it was a blast for me to have him back.”
Readers appear pleased with how things turned out, as well, judging by the number of e-mails that have “swamped” Pearson since they learned of Boldt’s return to the pages of creative fiction.
The book is the fourth in Pearson’s mystery thriller series set in Sun Valley. The first had Sheriff Fleming, inspired by real-life Blaine County Sheriff Walt Femling, tracking down a would-be assassin targeting a Hillary Clinton-like presidential candidate during Sun Valley’s annual Allen and Company conference.
The second had him dodging avalanches to thwart an act of
environmental terrorism. And the third had him infiltrating Sun Valley’s glamorous Wine Auction to catch the thief of an irreplaceable bottle of wine.
The latest one starts off with a bang when a bunch of Boy Scouts clean-ing Highway 75 find a body in a pile of ava-lanche debris. It weaves in Sun Valley’s wealthy residents and its outdoor wilder-ness. And, like the first three books, it drops plenty of names and locations that Wood River Valley residents will be familiar with.
The book gar-nered Pearson and Femling a seven-minute spot on NRP Ra-dio’s “Morning Edition” as part of its series look at crime books. And Pearson will talk about it for the hometown crowd during a free talk at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 23, at The Community Library, 415 Spruce Ave. N., in Ketchum.
This will do it for the Sun Valley series for at least a year, maybe two, Pearson said. His publisher has him doing a new
series based on his year-long sojourn last year to China where he taught creative writing at a university.
The first book will revolve around two people who work for a private security firm similar to
Blackwater and are asked to try to go into China and rescue some-one who’s been kidnapped.
Pearson said the plot emerged out of his own fascination about private security firms rescuing real-life nuns in South America.
The prolific writer also has another “King-dom Keepers” book on the way and is co-writing
a fifth “Peter and the Starcatch-ers” book with humorist Dave Barry that’s due out next year.
A play based on “Peter and the Starcatchers” will open off-Broadway in March. The Disney play was written by Rick Elice who wrote the script for “The Jersey Boys.”
“I’m so excited because I love the theater and this script is so clever and smart,” said Pearson.
Blaine County Sheriff Walt Femling, left, has served as the first-line editor for yet another of Ridley Pearson’s mystery thrillers set in Sun Valley.

By JESSECA SALI, US BANKBusiness Relationship Manager
Bankers today are coming to the table with more than just money for busi-
nesses. Many are able to lend a hand in putting a financial plan in place to help start a business, or to expand or better manage your business’ funds. Some lenders also offer business own-ers access to an online small business resource center that can provide profes-sional assistance on legal, tax, account-ing and operational issues.
Cash Management Solutions - Computer savvy small business owners want to quickly manage their company’s cash flow, wherever they may be. In response, many banks are providing online access, 24 hours a day, so that small business owners can handle routine banking transactions to help them take the guesswork out of their daily cash forecasting. From the privacy of their own office or while travelling on the road, owners can stay in touch online, monitoring which checks and deposits have cleared, or they can trans-fer funds, view loan balances and make loan payments or pay bills to other companies at the tap of a few computer keystrokes.
Workplace Banking - Helping to make life easier, or more stress-free, for company employees, at little or no cost to the company’s bottom line, makes good business sense.
Many business banking officers are
happy to work with small busi-ness owners and their employees to set up a direct deposit pro-gram or arrange for a financial seminar that can take place right in the company lounge, and if needed, interpreters on hand to overcome any language obstacles.
Maintaining A Positive Cash Flow - In our current economic climate, maintaining
a positive cash flow is critically impor-tant, so take a moment with your lender at least once a year to evaluate your company’s long and short-term financ-ing needs in addition to your future business goals.
If you are looking for extra money each month to put back into the busi-ness, are considering purchasing equipment to improve your business, or are looking to either increase or reduce the length or amount of your current business loan, then you might want to consider refinancing.
The key to your financial check up is to take a moment with your lender to look at your businesses’ big picture: Where you’ve been, where you’re going, and the best way, financially, to get there. The only thing you have to invest in now is the appointment time.

To Your Health~ good advice from local practitioners ~
By VEE RILEy
On September 22, l966, in Marin General Hospital, Greenbrae, Calif., I gave birth to a son. The
birth announcement read John Tucker Riley. All seemed well until John began struggling with something known as gender identity disorder in early child-hood.
After years of persistent conflict, John eventually reshaped his identity and is now known as Jessa. Here is her story:
Beginning at the age of three, I had a feeling of gender dysphoria, always feeling I should have been born a girl. The pain of this condition was with me upon awakening in the morning and remained a constant torment until sleep at night.
My transition out of darkness, at the age of 26, began on a remote beach in Northern California — Big Lagoon Park, to be exact. Sitting on a washed-up log, I looked out over a placid lagoon, nestled in the redwoods. Turning, I saw a pounding Pacific Ocean biting down hard at the sharply rising sand of the beach. I sat there between two earths, one turbulent, and one calm. There could not have been a better place to have the benchmark moment where one
realizes there is no future unless actions are taken to heal the grief and pain inside. The two worlds had been divided too long and must be reconciled. On that day, the journey began.
There was much internalized hate and fear to process and it took over ten years of therapy, coupled with hormone treatment. The fear was quick to dis-sipate when I finally made the transition to living full time as a woman, at the age of thirty-six. Looking back, the hard-est part of my life was not the transition from male to female; it was living in denial of who I really was. My advice to anyone feeling gender dysphoria: take very small steps in the beginning, start by talking about it, and visit a support group if you can.
As a mother, I am grateful for the love and acceptance Jessa has received from over two hundred co-workers, family and friends.
Happy Birthday, Jessa, on your 44th.

The demand for blood in Hailey has increased in past years because of a growing population, an aging popula-tion requiring more medical care, and increasingly sophisticated medical procedures that improve health care but also require blood transfusions.
Any healthy person age 17 or old-er and weighing at least 110 pounds may be eligible to donate blood. Valid identification is required for all blood donations.
All eligible donors are asked to schedule an appointment to donate blood by calling 1-800-RED CROSS or visit redcrossblood.org.

Raising children is a tough job. Raising a family in an environmentally conscious
manner adds an extra challenge. Here are some suggestions and resources to help in the effort to raise eco-kids.
Start with the diapers. The environmental movement has sparked change across the board — all the way to how we dispose of our baby’s waste. This compa-ny will send you a monthly order of either cloth or biodegradable diapers with no shipping fees: www.gdiapers.com. Check out their website.
Purchase eco-toys that are PVC free, don’t need batteries, last a long time, and are made of wood. You can find some really cool eco-toys through Under the Nile, Select Solar, Branch, and 3R Living. An online resource that can help with dilemmas a mother might face in raising an
eco-family is www.naturemoms.com. Practicing sustainable living and raising an eco-fam-ily doesn’t always have to cost a bunch of money. The best eco-toy is not a toy at all. The all-time favorite, hide-and-seek, pro-motes outdoor play and exercise. Living here in the Valley we have some of the most amazing family-friendly outdoor recre-ation — free!
Another great way to help the planet, save some money, and put clothes on your constantly growing toddler is to buy second-hand clothes. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
Finally, pass along the knowledge and desire to live in a sustainable fashion to your children. This is the greatest gift we can give to Mother Earth.

Mara Liasson previews electionThe United

the eve of another big pendu-lum shift come Elec-tion Day in November, says National Public Radio po-litical correspondent Mara Liasson.
“This will be the third elec-tion in a row where at least 20 seats have changed. That hasn’t happened in the past 50 years,” Liasson told more than 400 representatives attending the Council of State Governments meeting held last week at Sun Valley Resort.
The upcoming election will be either “bad or disastrous” for Democrats. The question is: Will they just lose the House or will they also lose the Senate, Lias-son said.
“Americans wanted change during the last election and they still want change,” she said, noting, “It used to be they hated Congress but they liked their congressman. That’s not true anymore. They hate both.”
Part of the problem is that economic recovery has been so uneven—banks and Wall Street are doing well, but small busi-ness and ordinary workers are not doing as well. And “stimu-lus” has become a dirty word in Washington, even though it did help recovery.
While the focus may be on
Congress, tens of millions of dol-lars are being spent beneath the radar on governor races because of the new census, Liasson said. Whoever sits in the governor’s mansion can control the legisla-tive lines that are drawn accord-ing to the new census.
With only a few exceptions, Tea Party candidates are doing fine, Liasson said. In gen-eral, they’re working inside the Republican Party and they’ve brought energy to the party, rather than splitting it apart.
There will be a big debate about Bush tax cuts which ex-pire this year, Liasson predicted. The president wants to extend them, but only for those who make less than $250,000. Re-publicans want to extend them to everyone, even though the majority of Americans support a more restricted extension.
President Obama rode in on a wave of euphoria that was quickly dashed because expecta-tions were way too high, said Liasson, who has covered five presidential elections.
“He was going to change the way Washington worked, bringing in an era of bipartisan-ship. That’s impossible because Congress is too polarized,” she explained. “There was a time when the liberal Republicans were more liberal than the most conservative Democrats, but there is no such overlap any-more.”
Obama’s congressional major-ity was too undisciplined, Lias-son added. And Obama wasn’t willing to push for more realistic goals on healthcare or financial reform or energy reform, which stalled because cap and trade was too complicated.
Liasson, a regular on “All Things Considered” and “Morn-ing Edition,” predicted that the new, larger, more conservative Republican caucus will not have the kind of majority Democrats did. So both sides will be forced to compromise if they want to get things done. Obama has already moved toward the Republicans, she added, taking his latest eco-nomic programs right out of the Republican playbook.
Liasson said that Obama’s healthcare legislation marked the end of the last era—the last great entitlement program. From now on, expect entrenchment.
“We’re entering a new chapter in American politics,” she said.
Mara Liasson offered her no-holds-barred assessment of November’s election last week at the Sun Valley Limelight Room.

Cherry Kirsch Tart by Pam Neibergs
Take out shell and preheat oven to 350º F. With thawed cherries, strain to reserve juices. Stir cherries with sugar, then add lemon juice, jam and reserved cherry juices; gently mix filling.
Put in a pan and add kirsch, bring to boil and add cornstarch slowly, to thicken as you stir. Fully cook the mixture and put in the tart shell.
Bake at 350º for 30 minutes, then turn to 450º for 1 hour. Let stand to cool for 1 hour.
Thank you, Pam, for your recipe. Enjoy everyone!

Guard HouseAfter thirty-five years on the
same job, my husband hadenough of working full time.He retired early and took a part-time job as a night watchman sohe could relax more.
One morning he came homeand told me that he was firedfrom his new job after only afew weeks. "What happened?"I asked him. He explained thathe had fallen asleep while at hisdesk and someone had brokeninto the building.
Working so late at night, Icould understand how he coulddoze off. "But you're such alight sleeper," I said. "I'm sur-prised you didn't wake up fromthe sounds."
"I didn't get fired for fallingasleep," he confessed. "I wasfired for having my earplugsin!"

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,Twenty-six resumes, twenty-sixcover letters and zero inter-views. I faxed them, mailedthem, and delivered them in per-son. I have applied to at leastone per day. I've called to con-firm when they said not to. I'veemailed to ask for an interviewafter the polite two weeks. Icomb the newspaper everymorning and the jobs I'mapplying for are disappearing.Yet I'm still unemployed. It'sgetting harder to get out of mypajamas in the morning. Whybother? It's just my silent tele-phone and me. And yes, I havechecked. The ringer is turnedon. Please give me the secretsthat will get me through this.
• • •Cash: Good first step. The
ringer is turned on. But is the tele-phone plugged in the wall? Youmay just want to check for a dialtone too!
Carry: The last thing you needto do right now is get depressed.Otherwise, it will be really hard toget excited when you actually dogo for a job interview.
Cash: So here are a couple ofthings you should do. First, main-tain your routine. That means getup in the morning and get dressed.Staying in your pajamas all day only
deteriorates your attitude. Beforeyou know it, you'll be mowing thelawn in your bathrobe and slippers.
Carry: Second, you need to dothings that keep your spirits up.It's not only important for youroverall happiness, but if you'redepressed it's going to show inyour interviews.
Cash: Make sure you exercise,go out with friends and mostimportantly surround yourself withpositive people. You can join anunemployed support group to findpeople in your same situation. It'simportant that you enjoy your timeoff and get away from the job-hunting periodically. That way youreturn to it with a fresh attitude.
Carry: Now in terms of yourjob search, it sounds like you're
doing all the right things. Wewould suggest having a profes-sional review your cover letter andresume. It is possible that there aresome weak spots that are inhibit-ing you from landing an interview.
Cash: It could also be possiblethat you are targeting the wrongemployers or applying for jobsoutside your qualifications. Aprofessional recruiter, for exam-ple, may be able to help you.
Carry: And if you need some-thing to do while you're unem-ployed, try temp work. This oftenleads to permanent positions. Youcould also volunteer or join someclubs.
Cash: And keep positive,before you know it you'll be askingfor vacation from your new job!

Please spread the word ... our local animal shelter just received 17 new dogs from a hoarding case in our valley, mostly smaller dogs, Dachs-hunds, Pugs, Chihuahuas as well as some medium sized dogs.

The Animal Shel-ter is way over capacity and looking for forever homes for these dogs as soon as possible or anyone who is interested in fostering. The shelter is also offering 1/2 price adoptions for the month of September in order to help finds homes quicker for their many, wonderful dogs.

briefsHailey Autocross
this SaturdayThis Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 25
and 26, Friedman Memorial Airport and Atlantic Aviation will host the Snake River SCCA for two days of au-tocross racing. The course will be set with traffic cones on the asphalt where airplanes are tied down (not the run-way) and the airport will not be shut down. Racers will get eight timed runs on the course. The best time of the eight runs will be counted. Everyone is welcome and the cost is minimal.
To enter, all you need is a car and driver’s license. Anyone under 18 years old will need both legal parents to sign a release at the event. The car will be required to pass “tech.” Tech will be performed by SCCA members (Snake River Sports Cars of America). They will be looking for cars in good working order. They will look for loose wheels or bearings; the battery needs to be held down and it needs a rubber cover over the positive battery post; and everything (including the trunk) needs to be cleaned out of the car (no loose projectiles). Seatbelts and at-tachment points need to be in good working order. The tires cannot have any cords showing or be under-in-flated. The car needs to be leak-free of fluids. A Snell 2000-approved helmet is required to be worn; some loner helmets are available if you don’t have one.
Bring lunch money! The Boy Scouts are grilling burgers and dogs each day. For information: Chuck Christopher 788-1414 [email protected]
