Christmas Cards to Raise Money for Art

By Karen BoSSicK

Want a Christmas card that celebrates Hailey’s hometown holidays?

You might find what you want in a new holiday card available at four Hailey locations.

The card features a photo Chris Syms took of Hailey welder Bob Wiederricks’s giant bicycle in front of Sturtevants in the snow. Background lights are framed in such a way that the bike almost looks as if it’s bedecked with holiday lights.

Hailey artist Mark Johnstone helped finance the printing of 500 cards and Hailey Copy and Print discounted its costs.

The cards are on sale in Hailey for $2 at Sturtevants, the Hailey Cham-ber of Commerce, Copy & Print and Sun Summit South.

Proceeds will go to benefit public art in Hailey, said Wiederrick.

Wiederrick said he already has collected $927 for public art in Hailey by recycling cans. He hopes to exceed $1,000 by the end of the year.

People can drop cans off 24 hours a day at a bin outside at 4051 Glenbrook Drive in Hailey’s light industrial area. tws

Free Reading, TuesdayBy Karen BoSSicK

That’s the case in Conor McPher-son’s play, “The Weir.” Only, in this case, it involves four guys sitting in a rural Irish pub trying to impress a pretty young woman from Dublin, who just moved into a supposedly haunted house, with their ghost and fairy tales.

Turns out Valerie has a story of her own—a true story of why she has left Dublin. And this story has a haunting twist.

The nexStage Theatre will present a free reading of “The Weir” at 6:30 p.m. Thursday at the nexStage The-atre, 120 S. Main St., Ketchum.

The play-reading features Andrew Alburger, Charlotte Baker, Scott Creighton, Dawson Howard and Keith Moore.

Complementary wine and cookies will be served.

Story & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

Mary Jones has built between 30 and 50 gingerbread houses for each of the past 25 years.

They’ve run the gamut—from edible Victorian houses to Gothic churches with bells that ring. Some have looked like Hansel and Gretel A-frame cottages. Others resemble her clients’ own personal homes.

This year, the proprietor of The Choco-late Moose is padding her résumé with something even grander. She’s build-ing the entire Sun Valley Village out of gingerbread.

Jones has spent the past two weeks creating Sun Valley’s iconic Red Barn, the duck pond in front of the Sun Val-ley Lodge, the ice rink, the resort’s two hot pools and 30 other structures out of gingerbread.

Sun Valley Resort will have a ribbon-cutting for the gingerbread village at 1 p.m. Saturday in The Boiler Room in the Sun Valley mall. Homemade donuts, cider, mulled wine and cocoa will be available.

The village will be on display through-out the Christmas holiday.

“I have not heard of someone making an entire village out of gingerbread,” said John Murcko, Sun Valley’s new direc-tor of culinary operations. “I’ve always wanted to do something like this but it’s such an undertaking.”

The village, which covers a 16-by-24-foot footprint, will feature the Sun Valley Opera House, Trail Creek Cabin, the Wells Fargo bank, the duck pond, even the Sinclair gas station with its pumps.

There’s No Place Like HomeStory & PHoto By Bali SZaBo

Growing up in a city (Bu-dapest), I was definitely a city boy who knew how to

get around (I learned by playing hooky.) Worldliness is a big help to the traveler. Far from home, we lose our support system and we need to respond to new challenges and craft an entirely different comfort zone without depending too much on money. It’s not enough to be urbane. A person who can function and survive anywhere on the globe is worldly. Today, I avoid cities by choice, mostly because I hate driving in a fast-paced environ-ment where everyone knows where they’re going except me. Denver is like that.

From Rawlins, I got an early start so I could arrive in Denver before its legendary rush hour, an oxymoron in most cities. All went well. Once there, I never had to drive again. I memorized my escape route and got a clean getaway back to Wyoming a few days later. Not everyone likes the wide-open spaces. A friend of mine wouldn’t meet me halfway, so I had to drive to Denver. It turns out she was as uncomfort-able in that open country as I was in the city. It boils down to what kind of risk we’re accus-tomed to. The world is seeded with risk; like bacteria, it’s

everywhere. The risks to life and limb, to health and wealth, are greater in a city. Car insurance rates are higher for urban driv-ers. Laramie had its Matthew Brady, Denver its Aurora.

The drive back to Idaho was easy. There was no weather, and it warmed up. I could pump gas without my hands freezing to the nozzle. There was some weather coming, the high cirrus clouds showed it, and once past Rock Springs, the mackerel skies guaranteed it. The weather forecast said no storm, but to expect some overnight snow in the mountains. What we got was a week of wet weather.

If I had one concern, it was that I was driving west, right into the lowering sun, at high speeds in reduced visibility. Not only that, there would be more traffic as I neared Evanston. The sun blazed through the gaps in the layered sky. I used my hand or the visor to block it, peering through a narrowed windshield at 70 mph. As the road began to climb into the Wasatch Moun-tains, I glanced back, and the rearview mirror showed me a once-in-a-lifetime scene. Behind me, the sky was a solid wall of black. A stretch of snowy moun-tains, lit rose by the last sun, extended across the field of view, in stark contrast to the gather-ing gloom behind it. The ribbon

of highway led the eye straight into the scene. The glass of every truck and car shone like dia-monds atop the black asphalt. It was a quintessential, all-Ameri-can moment, a perfect interface between man and nature, every bit as beautiful as a pure piece of wilderness can be, worthy of Walt Whitman or Carl Sand-burg. I could not stop to take a picture, and had to accept it as an experience I could never fully share. My frustration was equal to the majesty of the scene.

Darkness descended as I approached I-84. I could smell home. Why stop at a motel when

I could be home in Hailey by 10 o’clock? Traffic was light to nonexistent past Ogden. I was alert and had plenty of energy, so I went for it—13 hours, 775 miles—a personal record. There was one side effect. Once home, I sat slumped in the chair, cracked open a beer, only to find that I was vibrating. My entire torso was idling like the engine I had just shut off. The truck trans-ferred all its vibration to my body. Three hours later, I fell asleep, still feeling the rpm’s. That, too, was a first.

erc beat living Well UI-Blaine Extension Tips

let the traditional christmas color, green, stand for “earth-friendly” in-stead of “Ben Franklins” this year! Here are a few early ideas for increasing the first and decreasing the second.

if you just have to twinkle, substi-tute led holiday lights, which slash 90 percent of the electricity used by the incandescent variety. in addition, led bulbs last longer and are much cooler, plus they are so bright, you won’t need as many to make a splash. Prices have really gone down since they were first introduced. don’t throw away your old incandescent strings because some organizations can parlay them into funding.

if you stay in touch with old friends primarily through holiday cards, then salvage the tradition, but decrease the paper. recycled paper cards are the best option if you’re purchasing, but making your own from paper ma-terials in your recycling bin is both fun and economical. For the option with

the least paper and postage, consider e-cards. a quick internet search for e-mail cards reveals a large list. the funky favorite is jibjab and more tradi-tional is Hallmark or Bluemountain.

think local for your holiday feast-ing: a little research will reveal Valley sources for locally grown meats and veggies, wine makers, coffee roasters, and we are blessed with great bakers and chefs if you are prone to cooking disasters. Supporting local businesses means less gasoline burned and more money fueling our local economy.

the most important holiday tip: Slow down! linger in the magic of a fresh snowfall, write your name in the window frost, and get nostalgic about the scents of fresh evergreen boughs and gingerbread cookies.

Have a question, or want to write your own ERCbeat? Contact the En-vironmental Resource Center at 208.726.4333 or [email protected].

Holiday Magic? Be Responsible!a lot of people think all christmas

trees are the same. But not all christ-mas trees are created equal and each species can have different sought-af-ter aesthetic qualities. the kind of tree you pick/cut depends on factors such as what shade of green you want your tree to be, how thick or full you’d like the branches and needles, and how strong of a fragrance you desire.

When picking out your tree, first consider the size of the space where you will be putting your tree. you don’t want to put your christmas tree in an area that would receive direct heat, in order to prevent a fire hazard. in ad-dition, direct heat from the sun can cause overdrying of the tree, which will lead to it dying sooner than ex-pected. after you’ve decided on the placement of the tree, next consider which species you’d like. although there are over 16 christmas tree spe-cies sold in the u.S., the most common evergreen trees include pine, fir, and spruce. take the time to research the

different types of trees before settling on one. this will help you determine the longevity of the tree, color, how long the needles will last, attractive-ness of form, and how long the tree may retain its pleasing fragrance.

after deciding on the type of tree you’re going to cut or purchase, make sure you look for a tree that is healthy. a freshly cut, healthy tree can last lon-ger through the holiday season and its needles won’t dry out and fall off. look for one that is green, not brown. the needles of pine and spruce trees should bend and not break. they should be hard to pull off the branch-es. another way to test the freshness of the tree is to slightly drop and shake the tree. the needles should not drop off. if they do, your tree may be dry and was cut a while ago. a few needles will always drop because trees tend to shed. if you are unsure about the tree you want to purchase or cut, ask the seller for information, or simply keep searching.

From Humanitarian Efforts to DancingBy JonatHan Kane

Community School junior Lena Perenchio has had a chance to see things that

most of us have never seen and it has changed her life. So much so that she has devoted a great deal of her time to helping out in humanitarian efforts. “In sixth grade, I went to Africa,” she said. “My mom is a photographer and she had been there before and she wanted my sister and me to see it. Of course, we did the nor-mal things, like go on a safari, but the real purpose of the trip was to visit an orphanage where we got the chance to work with kids. What I remember most is how joyful they were and how much they loved singing and dancing and how they all had such big hopes and dreams and how much they wanted educa-tion. It just made me appreciate so much what I have. It was a female orphanage and basically these were kids from the slums. Most of them had been sexually abused and many were infected with HIV It was really eye-open-ing because I was the only white person and it was really different to be looked at. But being intro-duced to that part of the world really matured me. Coming back here made me want to help and do other things for other people, but at first I wasn’t sure what I could do.” The solution was to get as many supplies as possible to them. “Unfortunately, if they don’t have shoes, pencils and paper, uniforms or even sanitary napkins, they can’t go to school. My mom goes to Kenya a lot and I was able to go back two summers ago and we brought with us as much as we could. There is such an incredible mix of animals and nature and the people are just so hopeful and in such good spirits.”

During Perenchio’s freshman year she was able to accompany her mother on a humanitar-

ian trip to Cambodia, Laos and Thailand. There they visited as many orphanages as they could. “In that part of the world parents really don’t want their kids to get an education because they are afraid that they will leave the home and never come back. One day-school we visited, based on the arts, worked hard to correct this because at this school they could go home and assist their families. Of all the countries we visited, I liked Cambodia the most. It just felt so familiar and I couldn’t figure it out. I saw the culture and made an instant connection to it.”

Perenchio’s goal now is to take the insights she has gained and bring them back to her home community. This would take the form of starting her own not-for-profit that would fund humani-tarian efforts. “My eighth-grade project was to study female genital mutilation in Africa and it made me more aware of what was happening there. I decided I would find a way to help chil-dren. I want to connect the not-for-profit with school by having speakers come in and talk about what kids could do and help raise awareness on these issues. There is a lot that we can do here and you don’t have to travel to Africa or Cambodia. Volunteer work makes you feel so good. It gives you a chance to help someone, and seeing them happy makes you happy. In the future, I want to study foreign policy and international relations so that I can always be involved.”

Back home, Perenchio pursues her first passion—dancing, which she began at three years old. “I stopped for a little bit, but then it became a real focus in my life. My earliest memory was of performing to ‘Walk Like an Egyptian.’ I also remember an early performance where one of the girls never attended re-hearsal, so she didn’t know what she was doing, and I pushed her

into place. I really took it very seriously.” Since then, Perenchio has been with the Sun Valley Ballet School, starting at seven years old. “We started with the basics of ballet, like turns, bar warmup and the different steps. I started with my best friend and we started taking classes every day after school. I only have good memories of that time and I stuck with it. I just always liked it and it made me happy because it gave me the chance to express myself.” Perenchio will be performing in “The Nutcracker” this December 7, 8 and 9 where she will be perform-ing a pas de deux with a boy for the first time. “It’s really hard and different because it’s such a challenge, but I really love performing. You work so hard, so it’s really rewarding. You’re nervous before, but it’s such a rush of adrenaline when you go out there. But when the lights come on, you relax and know you can do it.” The same applies to anything this determined young woman tackles.

Peace negotiators in the Middle East have a bunch of Wood River Valley kids

watching their backs.Three Wood River High School

students were named Best Del-egate at the Teton County Model United Nations Conference held recently at Jackson Hole High School.

The students were competing against 190 delegates from nine schools.

Gus Kimball won for the UNESCO Assembly, Chase Hutchinson won for General Assembly Plenary, and Chase England won for General Assem-bly 2 Disarmament and Security. Meanwhile, Matt Reidy won the best position paper and was named outstanding delegate in the Security Council.

Students from Wood River’s Model United Nations Club represented Syria and Germany while playing the role of a UN ambassador.

Hutchinson and Annie Ashfield tackled such issues

as biodiversity and nuclear disarmament. England focused on reducing military budgets and strengthening security and cooperation in Asia and the Pacific. And Mickaela Ronnvrst and Sky McGee took on human settlements, sport for peace and development and high food prices.

Lidija Jurovich and Lex Shap-iro tackled the issues of malaria, International Humanitarian Law and trafficking. Reidy de-bated the terrorist act in Yemen, the situation in North Korea and peace-building with a focus on Haiti. And Kimball tackled such issues as education in conflict and post-conflict states, balanc-ing tourism and preservation at World Heritage Sites and empowering citizens through universal access to information.

UN coach Joel Zellers said the preparation for the event took 10 weeks.

“Our next conference is at the University of California-Berkeley in March with 1,600 students,” he added.

thespians are headed to state competition at Century High School in Pocatello this weekend.

Katie Walton, Ian McKenzie and Traci Otto will compete with a musical number from “Seussical,” which the Wood River High School Drama Department produced last spring.

Caroline Scarbrough, Taylinn Lake and Shea Goitiandia will per-form an original ensemble pantomime titled “The Forgotten Heart.”

The students earned the right to go at the District IV Drama Tour-nament in Twin Falls last week.

The entire Wood River High School Drama Department earned a third-place sweepstakes trophy at that tournament.

“I believe this is the first district drama placing for Wood River since Tim Neville’s first-place team in 1989,” said high school speech and drama teacher Karl Nordstrom.

The Papoose Club, a Wood River Valley non-profit vol-unteer organization, will

kick off the holiday season on the first weekend in December with its 22nd Annual Holiday Bazaar. This perennial favorite holiday shopping extravaganza will be held at Hemingway Elementary School in Ketchum on Saturday, Dec. 1 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, Dec. 2 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Admission is free.

The Holiday Bazaar is an important fundraiser for The Papoose Club, whose mission is to support local youth-oriented groups through fundraising activities and events in the Wood River Valley. The club provides important financial support to local organizations that serve children and makes it possible for kids of the Wood River Valley to grow up with access to a wide variety of activities.

The Holiday Bazaar is a juried arts show that features high-quality handcrafted goods from more than 50 vendors from across the Intermountain West. A wide assortment of gift items will be available for purchase including ceramics, hand-blown glass, clothing, jewelry, hand-bags, birdhouses, home décor, textiles, edibles and more.

Among the new items this year: Braden Jon Anderson’s ornamental orbs and teardrop glass mini-terrariums, along with decorative apothecary jar

terrariums.“This is a fantastic event that

really brings out the entire com-munity,” says Alexis Lindberg-Stedman, chairperson of the 2012 Holiday Bazaar. “We’re really excited about the variety and quality of items that will be available at the Bazaar this year.”

Over the course of the week-end, Papoose Club volunteers will be offering fresh soup in the Soup Café and selling homemade holiday cookies by the dozen. Tickets for The Papoose Club’s famous raffle are also available for purchase, with a fabulous array of raffle items from which to choose, including a 2012/2013 Sun Valley Adult Season Ski Pass. As a special treat, Santa Claus will make an appearance at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, so be sure to bring your camera! There will also be a creative children’s activity sponsored by The Bead Shop in Hailey, a booth where children can write letters to Santa, and live musical enter-tainment all weekend long.

The Papoose Club was founded in 1954 by a group of local moth-ers and was incorporated as a non-profit in 1975. Over the past three years, The Papoose Club has donated more than $77,000 to 44 different organizations that benefit local kids.

Georgina Terry could have excused herself from learning to bike—after

all, she had polio as a youth.But, instead, she created the

first women-specific bike.Terry’s story will be one of

several that will be told at LU-NAFEST this Saturday.

The fundraising film festival dedicated to promoting aware-ness about women’s issues will be hosted by Girls on the Run of the Wood River Valley at the nexStage Theatre, 120 S. Main St., Ketchum.

The festival will feature nine short films by women filmmak-ers ranging from animation to fictional drama and cover such topics as women’s health, motherhood, body image, aging, cultural diversity and breaking barriers.

One film, for instance, is a coming-of-age piece about young girls at a national training cen-ter for gymnasts. Still another piece, focusing on self-expres-sion, documents a woman who tattooed her bald head after losing her hair during chemo-therapy. And still another is an animated piece made with time-lapse photography that focuses on accepting ourselves and not comparing ourselves to others,

said organizer Mary Fauth.A silent auction featuring such

items as a private party at Whis-key Jacques’, a ski vacation at Sun Valley, a grocery shopping spree, two passes to the Sun Valley Wellness Festival and dinner and a play with Company of Fools’ “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown,” will precede the event at 6:30 p.m.

Bid online at lunafestauction.org if you can’t make it to the films.

There will also be a raffle for a Horizon Fitness T203 Treadmill or EX-79 Elliptical, as well as a Pamper Yourself package featur-ing a facial, skin care products, pedicure, personal fitness train-ing, shopping gift certificate and beer. Raffle tickets are $5 for one and $20 for five, available at LUNAFEST or from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday at the Hailey Holiday Square. Winners need not be present to win.

The films start at 7:30 p.m. Cost: $15 for adults and $10 for students and seniors, avail-able at www.lunafest.org/ket-chum1201 or Sturtevants in Ketchum. Admission at the door: $20.

Proceeds benefit the Breast Cancer Fund and Girls on the Run of the Wood River Valley.

ond annual Sun Valley Powder Festival—billed as “the ultimate snow dance weekend”—returns to Sun Valley Dec. 6 through 9.

This year’s festival will be bigger and better than ever with Sun Valley’s first Air Bag Jump joining the Powder Dance.

The centerpiece of the weekend’s festivities remains the K2/Scott Sports Powder Festival Dance on Friday, Dec. 7, at the Sun Valley Limelight Room. Themed “Powder to the People,” attendees are encouraged to dress outrageously—Penelope Street showed up last year dressed as a Powder Pig, while Karl and Jinny Weatherly strut-ted around as a Snow Prince and Snow Princess outfitted com-pletely in white.

Get pinned by Captain Powder Dave Moe, who founded “Pow-der” magazine with brother Jake in Sun Valley 40 years ago, and you win big.

Admission to the dance is $30 with tickets available in advance at www.WeLoveSunValley.com.

The bag will be set up on Lower Warm Springs, snow per-mitting. Contestants can prac-tice all day and do their jump for the camera in the afternoon. The contest repeats on Saturday with winners determined at the Apple’s Party and Nordica Jump Contest Awards at 3:30 p.m. Saturday where slow-mo-tion footage of the jumps will be shown. Apple’s Bar & Grill is at the base of Bald Mountain’s Warm Springs side.

A Smith Optics Film Festival will be held at Ketchum Town Square across from Atkinsons’ Market on Saturday night. Snow lovers are encouraged to gather ’round the fire pits while watch-ing videos of powder skiing dat-ing back to 1967. Prize drawings will be held for Smith gear.

The evening will conclude with Whiskey’s Rock the Night Away beginning at 9:30 p.m. at Whiskey Jacques’, 251 N. Main St., Ketchum. And the entire event will conclude with live music and breakfast from 9 to 11 a.m. at Starbucks.

Skiers head through the powder on upper Holiday. the brown valley below told the story of a warm front that brought rain, rather than snow, to Sun Valley for opening day.

Sun Valley Opens With Powder DayStory & PHotoS

By Karen BoSSicK

“Ugggh,” Tim Wolff gri-maced as he

tried to fit his foot into his ski boot. “First time in the boot this year and it’s going to hurt.”

Presumably, Wolff’s feet won’t be hurting by the time he gets his average of 60 to 70 ski dates in this year. And chances are he wasn’t thinking about his feet by the time he got to the top of Baldy Thanksgiv-ing morning.

Not with a powder day awaiting him on the first day of the year.

After all the hand-wringing over four days of rain that should have fallen as snow, skiers and boarders found something to smile about Thursday as Sun Val-ley opened all the runs on top of Baldy, allowing them to ski in powder that was knee deep in some places.

There was enough to result in a fairly large avalanche on Christmas Bowl and enough for the ski patrol to bomb the mountain.

“Dude! The best opening day ever!” one twenty-something snowboarder shouted to a friend on the Christmas chair.

Susie Koharski let out a yodel as the River Run chair took her from the line at the bottom of River Run, soaring above the snow. Her seatmates fol-lowed suit with their own yodels.

“This is so cool,” said Kathy Wygle. “Just yester-day we were hiking and riding horses. And today we’re skiing!”

Their excitement turned to amazement as they passed a chair on the Sunnyside lift that boasted a yard-long icicle—the remnants of rain that had frozen.

Their eyes got wider still as the Lookout Express took them past Upper Holiday, Upper Cutoff, Up-per Blue Grouse and Ridge where those who had been first in line were cavorting in powder.

“Oh, my!” said one. “I had no idea we’d be skiing powder today!”

A couple thousand people turned out for the opening of Sun Valley’s 77th season, toasting a warm, windless bluebird day that prompted one man to show up in a convertible with the top down.

Boiseans Lee and Joan Lindquist showed up with their daughter Kristen in tow, just as they’ve done since 1976.

“We’ve got it figured out,” said Joan Lindquist, who was entrusting Sun Valley chefs to prepare her Thanksgiving dinner at the Limelight Room buffet. “We ski all weekend and leave the cooking to someone else.”

Sun Valley resident JoAnn Levy was first in line, as always, this time with new boots to boot.

Hemingway Elemen-tary School teacher Scott Slonim wasn’t first in line, as he’s been on a number of opening days. But he was count-ing his blessings that he was in line at all after cracking his pelvis seven weeks earlier when his bicycle slid out from under him on a patch of ice.

“If they had opened one week earlier, I wouldn’t have been here,” he said. “That’s how much I healed in just a week’s time.”

A view from the top of the mountain told the story of the preced-ing week, which had boasted temperatures

15 degrees above average. Just a few degrees colder and the mountain would have been wallow-ing in snow. But the valley was brown, with snow levels starting at about 7,500 feet.

Still, mid-Warm Springs, mid-Limelight, Lower College and Canyon looked mighty enticing beyond the closed ropes.

“If they can’t get Lower Warm Springs open, I’d suggest they open Seattle Ridge, instead,” said Beth Grinstead, as she viewed the Seattle Ridge runs, which had been buffed out by groomers from the Christmas chairlift. “It looks awfully good over there.”

A ThAnksgiving To RemembeRIt was definitely a Thanksgiving to remember.Golfers skied powder on Baldy before heading

to the golf course for a few trips around the links. Fly-fishermen baited trout in the Big Wood River before heading home to turkey. And others burned off a few pre-dinner calories biking, hiking and shooting clay pigeons.

“This Thanksgiving could probably qualify as the best weather we’ve ever had for the Turkey Trot,” said Mary Fauth of the fun run that started around the fire pits in the Hailey Holiday Square before heading across the new Bow Bridge through the Draper Preserve and down Broadford Road.

“It was dry. The sun was out. And the course was beautiful,” Fauth said.

It’s a different scene from Baker Creek north.The Nordic trails have been getting snow when

the Wood River Valley has been getting rain. The Blaine County Recreation District has groomed the Harriman Trail north of Cathedral Pines. It has groomed most of the trails around Galena Lodge, including the infamous Psycho Ridge. And the skiing gets better with every groom.

Joann levy was first in line on opening day, as she has been since she moved to Sun Valley from Hawaii many years ago.

read it

Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896), Hard-

back, 637 pages, Publ. 3/20/1852.

By margot Van Horn

When Abraham Lincoln met Harriet Beecher Stowe at the White

House in 1862, he allegedly remarked: “So you’re the little woman who wrote the book that started this Great War.” Yes, he was talking about the Civil War. Just recently, the new movie, “Lincoln,” starring the amaz-ing Daniel Day-Lewis, is out in our theaters and, knowing this, I thought that I might read, fi-nally, Uncle Tom’s Cabin. For, as prolific a reader as I am, this is a book that I had put off reading forever. I was surprised at how modern Stowe’s prose was for having written it 160 years ago, and I enjoyed it a lot. The subject matter, of course, is shocking,

but we are all aware of it. There has been a lot written about it and great novels have featured the theme of how terrible slavery was, and still is.

The characters in this novel will stand out in your mind for a long time to come. Particularly the one of Uncle Tom, and of course we’ve all heard the scary name of Simon Legree. Uncle Tom’s story is almost Jesus-like. The book is very religious and Christian, which may throw some people off, but whether you are of a religious nature or not, what I liked about it is that it gave some hope as well as talk-ing about the fate of the many slaves who couldn’t reach hope.

This is indeed a monumen-tal novel, even in the present day, because slavery is still an issue—maybe not here in the U.S., but certainly in other countries, as we well know from reading our newspapers and

looking at the TV. Stowe was one very brave woman to take this route to protest slavery in her era; however, it was the only route a woman could take back then. As an author, she may not be a Dickens, Tolstoy or Aus-ten—however, she wrote a very powerful book that should be read by every person who loves to read and cares about human nature.

Lastly, in regards to the Lincoln movie, there are two good books about him which I really enjoyed: “Love Is Eternal” by Irving Stone, and “Team of Rivals,” by Doris Kerns Good-win. “Love is Eternal” is really supposed to concentrate on Mary Todd Lincoln, but I felt that the book concentrated on both of them.

So, here’s to good reading and seeing good movies, as well.

Still a Great read 160 years Latermovie review

Portrait of an IconBy JonatHan Kane

I must confess, I’ve never been a fan of the director Steven Spielberg’s work and have of-

ten scoffed at the notion that he is a great American artist, which to many is pure sacrilege. Corny, pandering and sugar-sweet are the ways that I would describe much of his work. Thankfully, except for one short scene at the beginning of the new film, Lincoln, none of that is present here. Instead, Spielberg has done the impossible by crafting a story about the legislative process which is compelling (no small feat) as well as timely and by creating a portrait of our beloved 16th President that will stand the test of time and will serve as the definitive portrait of the man that will resonate for genera-tions to come.

There can be no argument that much of the credit goes to the spectacular performance by Daniel Day-Lewis as Lincoln, which should earn him his third Oscar for Best Performance, which would be a record. A lot of this film and his interpreta-tion is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning biography, Team of Rivals, by historian Doris Kearns Goodwin. Coming from the backwoods of Kentucky and Illinois, Lincoln only had one year of formal education and the tales of his prodigious intellect, coupled with a down-home folksy manner, are legendary. Carrying the world weariness of a man trying to direct a divided nation

to unity by ending America’s greatest war while grappling with the legislative procedures of ending slavery, Day-Lewis, the Irish actor, nails it completely. Whatever we imagined Lincoln to be, his performance will now be etched forever as our percep-tion. Through a terrific makeup job (it could have been disastrous and sunk the whole project), and superior acting, the great man has come to life in a way that far exceeds any expectations. Great support is given by Sally Fields as the troubled Mary Lincoln, still mourning the death of her son, and a terrific turn by Tommy Lee Jones as the head of the radical wing of Lincoln’s own party that not only wants to free the slaves, but demands repara-tions. Also on board is a collec-tion of America’s great senior character actors resplendent in copious amounts of facial hair. The daunting task of making a movie that’s heart is the talky legislative process interesting falls to the great playwright Tony Kushner and he does a su-perb job of handling that delicate tightrope. But it is Spielberg, in the end, that deserves credit for the movie’s success. He has crafted one for the ages.

tableto your’s

By margot Van Horn

This is such a delicious quickbread, and it is a breeze to make. A sliced

piece comes out looking so color-fully festive and, when you top it with some cream cheese, it’s the best! Actually, this recipe makes me think of my mother, who was from Holland. She would slice a thin piece of this kind of loaf and place it in the middle of two pieces of toasted regular bread that had lots of butter on it and enjoy it that way. Oh well, no different than using leftover tur-key, cranberry sauce and leftover turkey dressing as a sandwich filling—which I do love and I bet a lot of you do, too.

Holiday Cranberry Bread1 loaf yields about 12 slices

ingRedienTs:(liquid)1 C. sugar1 Tbsp. grated orange peel (I

didn’t have an orange so I used a lemon which turned out just great)

3/4 C. water1/3 C. orange juice2 Tbsp. oil1 egg(dry)2 C. all-purpose flour1 ½ tsp. baking powder1 tsp. salt½ tsp. baking soda(last add-ins)1 C. halved fresh or unthawed

frozen whole cranberries (I had fresh, which I briefly put in the blender)

1 C. chopped nuts—any kind that you like. I used almonds.

insTRucTions:Heat oven to 350 degrees. Pam spray a 9X5 loaf pan (I

used a glass one which worked just fine.)

In a large bowl, combine the liquid ingredients (I used a whip); blend well.

Add dry ingredients (I sifted mine) until moistened.

Stir in cranberries and nuts. Pour into greased pan. Bake at 350 for 50 to 60 min-

utes. (Here in Ketchum, 50 min-utes did the trick.) An inserted toothpick in the middle of the loaf should come out clean.

Cool 10 minutes at least before removing from pan.

Cool totally and try not to eat it all at one sitting. Wrap tightly and store in frige.

Hints: No need to use a mixer or beater. Also, you can make three small loaves and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. I haven’t tried freezing it, but I’m sure that would work. Make sure to wrap in plastic wrap to keep the loaf moist when storing in frige or freezing.

Fungal Meningitis Outbreak and CompoundingBy luKe Snell

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Pre-vention, there have been

478 cases of fungal meningitis or related infections as of Nov. 19, 2012. This outbreak stems from the production of contaminated vials of injectable steroid by the New England Compounding Center (NECC), of Framingham, Mass. Tragically, thirty-four people have died. Not surpris-ingly, many questions have surfaced about the NECC and about the practice of compound-ing. Rest assured that the mass production and interstate deliv-ery of these drugs by the NECC is drastically different from the traditional, individualized phar-macy compounding performed by my pharmacy, Luke’s Family Pharmacy, in Hailey, and others like it.

Traditional pharmacy com-pounding that is being done by an estimated 7,500 pharmacies across the U.S. occurs at the request of a doctor for a specific patient when the healthcare needs of that patient can’t be met with commercially available

drug products. Compounding may include making a liquid dose for a patient unable to swal-low tablets or a healing ointment without an artificial color for an allergic patient. It may include putting a pain medication into a topical form to avoid the gastro-intestinal effects associated with the medication, or it may be an individualized hormone regimen in treating symptoms associated with menopause. This practice is known as compounding, and is typically done by a registered and specially trained pharma-cist. Compounding pharmacies, like mine, operate under the oversight of the State Board of Pharmacy, the Food and Drug Administration and the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Pharmacy compounding does NOT include the scope of operation of the NECC, which included shipping drugs to hundreds of clinics and hospitals across the country without indi-vidual prescriptions. This is not pharmacist compounding, it is manufacturing, and it requires licensing and inspection by the FDA, which the “pharmacy” did not have. Manufacturing should

not be allowed under the guise of a pharmacy license. But do not confuse that with true pharma-cist compounding—crafted medi-cations for individual patients with prescriptions.

Manufacturing under the guise of compounding should be shut down, but to eliminate compounding would be devastat-ing to thousands of patients and would only make the meningitis tragedy worse. Perhaps recent history gives the best example of the importance of compound-ing: The 2009 H1N1 outbreak that left a shortage of liquid Tamiflu was bridged with the help of compounding pharmacies that were able to compound a liquid from the Tamiflu capsules. This allowed countless children to receive their virus-fighting therapy.

As are all Americans, I am deeply saddened by the fungal meningitis outbreak. We put so much trust in our healthcare system that when an event like this occurs, it seems we have been mislead. I join with the push to find answers as to how this happened. I am concerned, however, that reaction will be

too widespread and all-encom-passing. It is important to un-derstand the difference between pharmacy compounding and manufacturing, as previously described.

understand Medicare Options

By micHelle SandoZ

Now that the political commercials have ceased, Medicare insurance plan

advertisements have taken over the airways. You may have noticed that there are Medicare insurance companies offering Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans with a zero to very low monthly premium amount. How is that possible? Do these plans offer comprehensive coverage that is comparable to the origi-nal Medicare Part A and B?

Medicare Advantage plans are provided by private insurance companies. These are required by law to cover services that are currently covered under the original Medicare Part A (hos-pital insurance) and B (medical insurance); often providing lower out-of-pocket expenses when compared to Part A and B. They may also offer additional ser-vices like prescription drug cov-erage and vision care. Premiums for select Medicare Advantage plans start at $0 per month (not a misprint). This is made pos-sible because the federal govern-ment pays the private insurance companies to offer these services to local communities across the United States. Approximately 25 percent of Medicare-eligible individuals are covered by these plans today and that number is growing. In order to qualify for a Medicare Advantage plan, you must currently be enrolled in Medicare Part A and B. You will not need to purchase an additional Medicare supplement plan. A Medicare Advantage plan would take the place of your current Medicare Supplement plan and often your Part D plan.

If your Medicare Advantage program is a PPO plan, you can use any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare. This is exactly the same requirement as Medi-care Supplement programs. The co-pays may be lower for utiliz-ing doctors and facilities in your plan area. There is also world-wide coverage on these plans. If the plan is an HMO, then you may only use an in-network doc-tor or facility. At this time, there are no HMO plans available in Blaine County. Insurance com-panies do not offer these plans in every county.

Now until Dec. 7, 2012 is a good time to review your current Medicare coverage to make any plan changes during this year. After December 7, you may have to wait until next year’s open enrollment period to make a change to your current drug plan or Medicare Advantage plan. You still have time to do an evaluation on your current Medicare insurance. I am offer-ing free insurance consultations to assist people who would like to learn more about Medicare Advantage plans and/or evaluate their current Prescription Drug plan.

NAMI: CIT Trainingnami – Wood river Valley, inc., an

affiliate in the nation’s largest grass-roots mental health organization, the national alliance on mental illness, announces the completion of cri-sis intervention training of local law enforcement personnel in Bellevue, Hailey and Ketchum. this 40-hour comprehensive training was led by Sergeant tom Fowers of the twin Falls county Sheriff’s department and the State of idaho, region V – Health and Welfare department personnel.

crisis intervention training, based on the original “memphis model,” al-lows law enforcement to be qualified to respond to emergency situations as they relate to the treatment of indi-viduals with mental illness.

individuals diverted through cit receive more counseling, medication and other forms of treatment than in-dividuals not diverted. cit facilitates communication both formally and informally between law enforcement and mental health providers.

overall, crisis intervention training is a community collaborative of first responders, law enforcement, local mental health providers, hospital per-sonnel, legal service providers, etc., that creates a more effective, compas-sionate and safer approach to inter-acting with people who are diagnosed with a mental illness.

Skiers and boarders will find an expanded superpipe, a dozen more terrain park

features and a skier/boarder cross course designed with family fun in mind on Dollar Mountain this year.

The superpipe will be expand-ed from 18 feet to 22 feet to meet Olympic specifications for Sun Valley athletes training for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, said Jack Sibbach, direc-tor of marketing for Sun Valley.

The pipe is one of only a few pipes in the country that meet Olympic standards, said Mike Bettera, marketing director for Snow Park Technologies (SPT), which designs state-of-the-art pipes and rail features for ski re-sorts throughout North America

The terrain park also features two dozen new rails, bringing the total number of play features to 76. One new feature resembles a roller coaster on rails, said Mike Fitzpatrick, assistant director of marketing for Sun Valley.

And the skier/boarder cross course will be extended and designed to make it more family friendly.

Kids and adults can learn to ski or board the new features through special lessons, includ-ing Dollar Mountain’s Sunday in the Park.

Those who would prefer to watch the high-flying hi-jinks will enjoy the Rev Tour competi-tion in March. The competition ranks just below the popular X-Games, Sibbach said. And collegiate championships will be held on Dollar Mountain March 4 through 9.

The tubing park, meanwhile, will be moved from Dollar Moun-tain to Lower River Run on Bald Mountain to allow for the exten-sion of the family cross.

The old halfpipe on Lower Warm Springs has been filled in, which will allow skiers and boarders to make turns below Race Arena again.

Two new Adventure Trails have been added to those that were created last year.

The Pine Marten Plunge will weed its way through the woods below Seattle Ridge Lodge as skiers make their way to Broad-way Avenue. The Deer Hollow Trail will veer off Gun Tower Lane, which ferries skiers to Seattle Ridge.

The Red-Headed Woodpecker Trail on Seattle Ridge, the Huckleberry Bear Trail off

Olympic Ridge and The Flume in Frenchman’s Gulch were designed last year with kids in mind. But the narrow trails with lots of dips and twists and turns proved “yeehaw” fun—and chal-lenging—for adults, as well.

Skiers and non-skiers alike can enter weekly drawings to ride The Beast—Sun Valley’s state-of-the-art snow groomer.

Dennis Harper, a longtime Burley farmer, will lead free snowmaking tours for skiers and boarders, likely on Saturday mornings.

New this year: Ski Patrol 101. Skiers and boarders of interme-diate level or above are invited to enter a drawing with the winner and a friend getting the opportunity to join the ski patrol at its Friday morning safety meeting. The guests will get to watch the sun come up from the top of Bald Mountain and make first tracks with patrollers as they set up safety fencing and do other tasks necessary to get the mountain open.

“We’re not looking for candi-dates for ski patrol because it takes so much medical training. But it is an exciting opportunity to be around the avalanche dogs and ski patrol,” said Sun Valley Ski Patrol Supervisor Mike Lloyd.

The Sun Valley SnowSports School is offering several new classes. Among them, Chaps—for guys who want the experi-ence of Mountain Masters but maybe only for one day a week, said SnowSports Director Alan Patzer.

Also new this year: the op-portunity to ride the chairlifts up Bald Mountain to ski the backcountry with guides from Sawtooth Mountain Guides.

Trips will be offered off Se-attle Ridge down into the Green-horn Gulch area a few miles south of Ketchum, said Ketchum District Ranger Kurt Nelson. The guides are also permitted to take paying guests off the Warm Springs side just to the south and west of The Burn—an area burned during the 2007 Castle Rock Fire.

The backcountry tours are out of bounds and therefore not under the control of Sun Valley Resort and its ski patrol, cautioned Lloyd. “If you get hurt back there, you will have to get out of there yourself or rely on Blaine County Search and Rescue to come get you, as our patrollers are busy assuring safety in-bounds.”

New on the Mountain

Story & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

Marc Mast saw his dream of establishing Sun Valley as an official

Olympic training site for Nordic and Paralympic athletes realized a few weeks ago.

Now he wants to start putting legs on that dream.

Mast wants to raise prize money that he says would make the Boulder Mountain Tour the first Nordic race in the country with prize money for Paralym-pians.

“Prize money would definitely attract the top Paralympians, as well as retired Paralympians who are still in good shape. More importantly, it would put the Paralympians on equal level with the able-bodied skiers,” he said.

Mast said the Boulder Moun-tain Tour in early February will be Sun Valley’s first official event as a Paralympic provider, along with a 3K prologue, the town sprint, and a para-biathlon competition held during the Sun Valley Nordic Festival.

Mast’s goal is to raise prize money for the categories of men,

women, vision-impaired, sit-down and stand-up.

Those who would like to donate money to be used as prize money may send donations to WRAP (Wood River Ability Pro-gram) at Box 800, Sun Valley, ID 83353.

SEEkING PrIzE MONEy

Sun Valley will host a biathlon compe-tition, in addition to three other race events in late January and early Febru-ary, as part of its first official events as a training site for olympians and Para-lympians. marc mast would like to raise prize money that he says would put Paralympians competing in the Boulder mountain tour on more equal footing with able-bodied racers.

another 15 hours,” she said. “If I start dozing off while I’m decorating, I’ll take a half-hour nap and then get back to work. I do wish I could take my eyeballs out and give them a rest now and then.”

Jones started on the lodge on Sun-day—a massive undertaking since it’s 80 inches long and four stories high.

“Every time I look at the lodge I think I don’t know if I’m going to get it all done. Problem is, I can’t tell anybody else how to help me when the design is in my head. Anybody can build an exact architectural model out of wood. This is out of cookie dough, so it’s not perfect.”

Jones normally covers her gingerbread houses with gobs of icing topped with edible silver balls for door knobs and a pletho-ra of gumdrops, Jolly Ranchers, Mike and Ike, Hot Tamales, malt balls, candy corn, pepper-mint pieces and Jelly Beans.

She isn’t covering the Sun Val-ley pieces in candy. Instead, she’s painting the buildings with icing to make them look as realistic as possible.

She’s had a few setbacks. She had just started admiring how “gorgeous” her duck pond was when she broke it. She’s had to handle her frosting with kid gloves since she can’t let it harden overnight as she usually does.

And the weather hasn’t been exactly cooperative.

Normally, Sun Valley offers per-fect gingerbread-baking weather. But ever since Jones began work-ing on the village, the area has been beset by rainy weather, which, for gingerbread bak-ers, is as damning as the light of day is for vampires.

“You couldn’t do this in Florida—

it’s too damp there,” she said. She looked at the mist glazing her face. “Clear up or snow!”

The biggest question Jones gets asked nowadays is when her village is going to be done.

“All I can tell you is, I have a deadline and, by hook or by crook, I’m going to have it done in time!” she said.

She paused. “Then it’ll be back to building my regular ginger-bread houses.”

Ribbon cuTTing On Saturday, Sun Valley will

cut the ribbon at 1 p.m. on a 16-by-24-foot Gingerbread Village in Sun Valley’s Boiler Room. The village will include the Sun Valley Lodge and the Snowball Express—the train that ferried skiers from Los Angeles to Sun Valley in the resort’s infancy.

There will be a Window Stroll Scavenger Hunt between 1 and 4 p.m., A Taste of Sun Valley tapas from The Ram restaurant and Bald Mountain Pizza between 3 and 5 p.m., wagon rides around the village from 2 to 4 p.m., and the arrival of Santa Claus at 3:30 p.m. on The Ram deck. Everything is free.

Men in BlueA few weeks ago, I met my

new neighbor, Ralph. It turnsout he's a nut for old cars andactually owns a beautifullyrestored police cruiser fromthe 1930's.

It was the most uniqueantique car I had ever seen.How many people do youknow own a police cruiser,aside from the police?

When I joked with himabout the rarity of the car, hetold me he knows quite a fewpeople in the area who ownantique police cruisers."That's amazing," I said tohim. "Do you guys ever gettogether?"

"Every month," he laughed,"at the donut shop!"

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,My brother-in-law always has toadd his two cents on everything.When my 1988 Toyota Celicablew a head gasket, he told methat I'd be lucky to get someoneto tow it away. However, I heardthat once a car becomes 25years old, it's considered a clas-sic and worth a lot more money.So I figure I should get it fixedand then try to sell it for a profit.My musclehead brother-in-lawsays I'm just wasting my moneyand that there's no such ruleabout classic cars. I'd just loveto prove him wrong anddeflate his ego. Canyou guys explain tohim that my car will bea classic by next year?• • •

Cash: Unfortunately, theonly things you may be deflatingare the tires on your car.

Carry: There is no hard-set rulethat a car becomes a classic at 25years old. If that were the case, alot of people would be buying 24-year-old cars and waiting to cele-brate at New Years.

Cash: In fact, most people can'teven agree on how to define "clas-sic". The Classic Car Club ofAmerica only considers cars from1925 to 1948 to be classics.Others consider cars like the 1957

Chevy or 1966 Corvette to beclassics.

Carry: In your case, you're con-cerned with the car's overall value.Most cars depreciate the day afterthey are purchased. Their age andnormal everyday wear and tearultimately erode the car's value.In rare cases when there is con-sumer demand, the value of a carcan appreciate as it gets older.

Cash: It's difficult for most peo-ple to predict which cars willbecome more valuable over time.For instance, not many expectedthe Ford "Edsel" to become a clas-sic. It flopped when it was intro-duced in 1957, but is considered

by many today to be a collector'scar.

Carry: Although possible, it'sunlikely that your 1988 ToyotaCelica will ever fall into the "clas-sic" category. You can researchthe blue book value, but consider-ing it needs a new head gasket andmaybe a few other repairs due toits age, it's probably not worthspending money on the car, espe-cially as an investment.

Cash: Now if you're still set onproving your brother-in-lawwrong, you could wait another 25years to see if the car appreciatesin value. Although by then, hisego may have deflated by itself.

510 thank you notesHailey Mayor Fritz, Once again our little town sparkles and looks amaz-ing because of you - thank you for making us shine like never before.

I would like to take a moment to thank Miss Sooz Alfs, Miss Pam Ellsworth and all at Zions Bank in Ketchum for taking the time to put together such a wonderful and hon-orable Veterans Day display at their branch last week. While I did not get to see it in person I feel it is only right to give credit where credit is most certainly due. I’ve heard very little about any other Veterans Day on-goings throughout our community, whose military history runs long and deep. This, to me, is very, very sad…Yet, I have faith that with the amaz-ing people at Zions who’ve seemed to “spark” the public’s interest and appreciation in our local military his-tory that life may be breathed back in to such an important holiday. I hope that this holiday will no longer “lay quiet” in our community. To all at Zions, I pray that your display next year is bigger and better and thank you again for sharing the military history of your loved ones and of all those who came in to the branch to share as well. God Bless! -Maggie Springer
