Gallery Walk By Karen BoSSicK

Friesen Gallery’s glass exhibition, at 320 First Ave. N., is certainly a must-see as you head out on

Gallery Walk between 5 and 8 p.m. Friday.

There are some other noteworthy exhibitions as well, ranging from Gail Severn’s exhibit featuring the work of part-time Sun Valley artist David deVillier to Gallery DeNovo’s “Ab-stractions.”

Wendy Jaquet will lead a free tour leaving at 5 p.m. from the Sun Valley Recreation Center in Sun Valley Vil-lage. The tour will meet others about 5:15 p.m. at Gilman Contemporary on Sun Valley Road.

Jaquet said her tour-goers appreci-ate getting to listen to gallery owners and artists talk about their works.

“They learn why something might cost $20,000. They learn about the sculpture Dave McGary has in the U.S. Capitol so the next time they go there they’ll be able to say they met the artist in Sun Valley,” she said.

Here’s what to look for Friday evening:

Gail Severn Gallery, 400 1st Ave. N., is featuring part-time Sun Valley artist David deVillier’s “No Endings/No Beginnings: Circles, Xs and Fig-ures Found.” deVillier’s human forms are influenced by primitive stone carvings and the paintings of the late deaf Boise artist James Castle and Bill Traylor.

Story & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

Vinny Carpenter piles a towering stack of Granny Smith and Brae-burn apple slices into a pie crust.

When he plops the last one on top, he breaks out into a song from “Miz Saigon.”

“The happy chef!” says gallery owner Gail Severn, watching Carpenter’s dimples emerge as he smiles.

It’s not an uncommon scene at the Tranquility Teahouse where Carpenter frequently sings his favorites from Josh Groban and Broadway musicals as he works.

After all, there’s nowhere he’d rather be than the kitchen.

“My personality is how I cook—fun!” he exclaims.

It’s tough to get Carpenter out of the kitchen. Since coming to Sun Valley in 2007, he has been spotted in numer-ous restaurants, including Rasberrys, Cristina’s and Sego’s. If he has a rare day off, he simply scoots over to another restaurant.

He’s done workshops on gluten-free quick breads and pies and other dishes

at Tranquility Teahouse and Rudy’s—A Cook’s Paradise in Twin Falls. And when he’s not behind a stove, he can usually be found chatting up his favorite products at Ketchum Kitchens.

In addition, Carpenter works behind the scenes to set up the tent, order the food and tools chefs need for their dem-onstrations, prep food and supervise Col-lege of Southern Idaho students as they prepare samples of the dishes at the Sun Valley Harvest Festival.

Girls on the run Screen ‘Miss representation’By Karen BoSSicK

The numbers are disturbing. The United States ranks just 90th in the world when

it comes to the representation of women in national leader-ship. Women hold only 3 percent of the clout positions in the mainstream media. And a whop-ping 65 percent of women and girls have dysfunctional eating behaviors.

You can learn more when Girls on the Run of the Wood River Valley presents a free showing of the 90-minute film, “Miss Rep-resentation,” at 6 p.m. Wednes-day, Feb. 20, at the Community Campus in Hailey.

The free screening was made possible by Blair and Mimi Clark.

The film first premiered in the documentary competition at the Sundance Film Festival where it caught the eye of OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network.

It challenges the media’s often disparaging portrayals of women and girls, which it purports make it difficult for women to achieve leadership or to feel powerful.

“The collective message that our young women and men overwhelmingly receive is that a

woman’s value and power lie in her youth, beauty and sexual-ity and not in her capacity as a leader,” say filmmakers, who fea-ture interviews with people like Nancy Pelosi, Rachel Maddow, Margaret Cho, Gloria Steinem and Condoleezza Rice.

Mary Fauth, who founded Girls on the Run of the Wood River Valley, said she was drawn to the issues the film raises be-cause of the work she and Girls on the Run do with girls’ self-es-teem, body image and providing positive peer group interaction and healthy adult role models.

“The fact that 38 percent of teenage girls are starving them-selves to lose weight and that 48 percent want to be as skinny as models, who are not a realistic representation of a healthy and normal body image, made me realize we need to be discuss-ing this in a bigger way,” she said. “I’ve seen the film probably five times now and can tell you that it’s hard to look at media the same way. The Super Bowl commercials and half-time show epitomized that awareness!”

Informational booths repre-senting such organizations as Girls on the Run, Wild Gift, Swiftsure Ranch, The Advo-cates, Environmental Resource

Center, Blaine County Educa-tion Foundation, Crisis Hotline, Sun Valley Wellness Institute, Mountain Adventure Tours and Nurture will offer information prior to the screening.

After the screening, there will be a panel discussion facilitated by KECH News Director Dayle Ohlau and Mountain Adventure Tours operator Matt Gershater.

A group of Wood River High School students will film the dis-cussion and interview attendees for a media project supported by the WOW-students.org organiza-tion.

The committee that put the showing together includes Fauth, Mimi Clark, Rebecca Rusch, Julie Carne, Jody Stanislaw, Shannon McLean, Deb Hobart, Angela Burrell, Cynthia Carr, Julie Dahlgren and Katja Peller.

esteem?Girls on the Run is looking for

inspiration to change the world is something rebecca rusch knows well as the “Queen of Pain” and ranking as one of the world’s top endurance ath-letes.

For rusch, winning is more than her four victories in the leadville trail 100 mountain bike race, where she set a new course record of 7 hours, 28 min-utes and six seconds. it’s about mak-ing a statement as a woman breaking barriers.

“my initial confidence comes from doing sports with all girls,” said rusch about her passion for sports and com-petition. “it’s very powerful what happens when we push ourselves. as a mature athlete, it’s important to spread the word, especially to inspire young women.”

rusch said she always heard about eve ensler’s rants, and when the op-portunity came up to take part and support the advocates, it was an idea

that hit home for her. rusch said she is laying the future groundwork for women through advocacy and getting involved.

Performers joining rusch in read-ing selections from eve ensler’s “a memory, a monologue, a rant, and a Prayer” at the advocates’ V-day event include Scott creighton, chantal Westerman, emma Steussi and anika lyon. in addition, the dirty Feet dance company has arranged several dance pieces to perform as part of the ben-efit evening.

Performances will begin at 7 p.m. at the nexStage theatre in Ketchum, on Friday, Feb. 22, and Saturday, Feb. 23. tickets for the event are $15 for students, $30 for regular seating, $50 for reserved seating and $75 for re-served front-row seats.

Community Leaders Rant for V-Day 2013

Verdi’s “rigoletto” will be broad-cast at 11 a.m., this Saturday, Feb. 16 at the Big Wood 4 cinemas in Hailey.

taking the 19th-century opera by Giuseppe Verdi, director michael may-er has set his bold new production of Verdi’s towering tragedy in las Vegas in 1960: an ideal setting for this con-flict of depravity and innocence.

“rigoletto” is an opera in three acts based on the play le roi s’amuse by Victor Hugo. it was first performed at la Fenice in Venice on 11 march 1851. despite serious initial problems with the austrian censors who had control over northern italian theatres at the time, the opera had a trium-phant premiere and is considered by

many to be the first of the operatic masterpieces of Verdi’s middle-to-late career. its tragic story revolves around the licentious duke of mantua, his hunch-backed court jester rigoletto, and rigoletto’s beautiful daughter Gilda. approximate running time is 3.5 hours.

Sun Valley opera and metropolitan theatres are the local sponsors of the met Hd: live broadcasts.

tickets can be purchased at the theatre box office in Hailey in advance or on the day of the opera. General admission tickets are $22, seniors $20 and students $18. For more informa-tion contact Big Wood 4 cinemas at 208-578-0971.

See Verdi’s Rigoletto in Hailey, Saturday

the nexStage theatre is proud to present a reading of award-winning irish playwright martin mcdonagh’s viciously dark and hysterically funny new play, “a Behanding in Spokane.”

the reading is at 6:30 p.m., tues-day, Feb. 26, and will run approximate-ly one hour and will be free of charge. as part of the nexStage’s ongoing playreading series featuring the works of top playwrights, this is the fifth mc-donagh play that has been presented

at the nexStage. the excellent cast includes actors Scott creighton, char-lotte Hemmings, Keith moore, and Jon Kane, who will also direct the reading. Be forewarned: this play contains of-fensive language and subject mate-rial.

Bloomberg news called it “insane yet also fiendishly funny,” and the u.K. telegraph said it was “irresistible.”

Paradise and a Dollar a DayStory & PHoto By Bali

SZaBo

Last week I touched on something in passing (typical of

a journey), the value and nature of a real experi-ence, the disconnect between the inertia of daily detail and the sur-rounding immensity which we can’t even begin to comprehend. Real life is our greatest teacher, and threat. We absorb an analog data stream which then disap-pears in the galactic labyrinth of the mind only to re-emerge through an exit door as a realiza-tion, a life lesson, a story - or an acted out tragedy. For better or worse, the best way to learn about life is to live it. It doesn’t come with an instruction book, and it has a long learning curve. Today we find ourselves with the Monti T’eo curse of confusing the virtual world with reality. In-creasingly, we don’t know what is real and that opens us up to an endless list of afflictions, not the least of which is deception.

We set off for the last settle-

ment we’d see for six days, Nagaon, at 13,500 feet. It was only three hours away and it in-volved a relatively small 2000 foot rise in eleva-tion. Here in our valley, Pioneer Cabin is a 3 mile, 3000 foot climb. The difference is the altitude. The two long inclines

that led to this spartan outlier took their toll. We labored up them. Our packs were hevier and so were our legs. With each step more and more mountains came into view, somewhat similar to what we experience from the south of Belleview as we near the upper valley. The landscape changed dramatically in a short distance.

We began to pass small stone fenced-in plots of land and lots of cairns indicating the edge of town. We came upon a beauti-ful, large boulder, about 20 feet high, completely covered with the carved inscription, ‘om mane pane om’, - behold the jewel in the lotus flower. It is the basic, ubiquitous mantra of Tibetan Buddhism that, along with the

greeting, ‘namaste’ and the Land of Snows, define Nepal’s identity in Western minds. ( The reality is very different .) As I neared the boulder, I saw a monk from Beding and the ‘egg man’, tak-ing a break, reconnecting with the spirit of the message. The sherpas, a seemingly inexhaust-ible, hyper-energetic bunch, had a favorite saying, ‘rest is best.’ This pithy adage is wiser than it seems because it addresses the greatest menace of high altitude travel - edema, a subject I’ll cover in much greater detail later on. The ‘egg man’ was a porter, called that because he was so sure-footed and gentle, he was trusted to carry a 30 dozen case of eggs. He was a porter who would be kept for the pass. The monk lugged supplies and the dinig room tent table. He would not continue with us past Nagaon. He led the sherpas in some ritual chanting the next afternoon, then returned to Bed-ing. He received one dollar for his efforts.

Aspens in Winter

Though the beauty of an aspen grove in winter is truly magnificent, from

December to April they become a somewhat neglected and over-looked piece of the landscape for the general population.

However, when we consider the aspen’s very existence in our harsh, winter ecosystem, it leads to a fascinating discovery about this incredibly well-adapted tree. Aspens thrive year-round throughout montane ecosystems. They survive long, harsh winters in places where other naturally occurring deciduous (or leaf-bearing) species are seldom found. So how do aspens manage to thrive where other decidu-ous species cannot? The answer starts with the changing leaves.

The green we see in leaves during the summer is chlo-rophyll. Sunlight works with chlorophyll to facilitate photo-synthesis, which is how plants make their food. In higher, drier latitudes where sunlight and resources will be scarce for a portion of the year, deciduous trees pull their food-making abil-ity—chlorophyll—back into their trunks and roots to conserve energy during the winter and store the food they produced dur-ing the summer. In the process, leaves change color, then drop. However,if you were to scrape a very thin layer off the white bark of the aspen, you would find a layer of green underneath! This is because aspens have chloro-phyll under their bark, allowing them to photosynthesize all win-ter long. This is just one of the awesome adaptations that allow the aspen to flourish as an iconic element in our ecosystem.

This wraps up the ERCbeat winter series. Check back next week for information on toxins in cleaning products. Contact the Environmental Resource Center at [email protected] or 208-726-4333.

Get DiStracteD With the FoolSBy Karen BoSSicK

You won’t need Ritalin or Adderall to get through “Distracted.”

The Company of Fools play promises to be a fast-paced romp that even utilizes music and video images splashed across embedded TV sets to help tell the story of a couple trying to figure out what to do with their son, who is either dysfunctional or just different.

“It’s a wonderful dialogue about our over-stimulated soci-ety,” said Director Denise Sim-one. “It asks: Are we so tuned into our 24/7 information-rich world that we’ve tuned out what really matters?”

Lisa Loomer’s play examin-ing the quandary of whether to medicate children who exhibit severe behavioral problems opens tonight with a Pay What You Feel preview. The play runs through March 1 at The Liberty Theatre in Hailey.

Max Albright plays 9-year-old Jesse, who is seldom seen but often heard—loudly so and increasingly angrily so.

His teacher wants to move him to a special education class because she has 27 other students to manage, leaving her precious little time to deal

with his fidgeting and temper tantrums.

Mom, who has precious little time to spend with her young ’un because she’s so busy meeting with psychologists, psychiatrists, homeopaths and even an envi-ronmental physician, ponders Ritalin on the advice of Jesse’s teachers, doctors and even the neighbors.

Dad’s not so sure. “Can’t a boy be a boy anymore?” he asks.

As the noise gets louder, the play builds to a distracted climax—even Jesse’s parents’ marriage is in peril, thanks to the tumult revolving around their son.

The play stars Andrew Al-burger as the father and Beth Hilles as the mother. Others in the play are Jana Arnold, Chris-tine Leslie, Claudia McCain, Traci Otto, Joel Vilinksy and Jennifer Jacoby Rush.

The actors and Dr. Evelyn Johnson and Anne Clohessy of the Lee Pesky Learning Center will conduct a special discussion centering on questions raised in the play following the 3 p.m. performance on Sunday, Feb. 17.

Despite the serious subject matter, the fast-paced 75-minute play, which made its off-Broad-way debut in 2010, is funny and easy to digest, said Simone.

“The best way to look at an is-sue is where you’re laughing but you’re willing to open yourself up,” she said.

Joel Vilinsky, a seventh-grade teacher at The Community School in Sun Valley, has seen first-hand what parents go through as they try to figure out how to help children who are exhibiting behavioral problems.

To medicate or not medicate often becomes the question as they ponder whether their chil-dren could have attention deficit disorder.

“I feel for the parents as they try to figure out how to help their kids,” he says. “It’s a tough road. I can’t imagine what they go through. This play allows you to see the inside of a mom’s mind as she tries to process every-thing being thrown at her. What it comes down to is: Love your child. That’s the bottom line, regardless.”

While the play is played with a lot of humor for such a serious subject, it’s also a thought-pro-voking one that will prompt a lot of conversation, said Claudia Mc-Cain, who plays a neighbor who has attention deficit disorder and two challenged children.

“It’s very emotional—comedy is always rooted in a lot of real-ity and truth.”

these Jeans are Not For Walking

By Karen BoSSicK

Andria Friesen is sporting a new line of jeans at Friesen Gallery.

You can’t wear ‘em, as they’re made of glass.

But the works blown by Cassandra Straubing are mind-boggling to contemplate.

“Just feel this!” Friesen said, inviting me to do what I’m always secretly yearning to do when I look at art.

I don’t hesitate, running two of my fingers down the seams of the blown-glass jeans. I can feel the threads, just as I feel the threads in my wear-a-day jeans.

“I don’t understand why they didn’t disintegrate in the process of casting,” said Andria, shaking her head in disbelief.

Cassandra Straubing, the glass sculptor who created the jeans, is the glass faculty head and stu-dio coordinator at San Jose State University and a blowtorch-carrying member of the prestigious Bullseye Gallery, which is presenting the exhibi-tion with Friesen Gallery.

One of her works resembles a flattened pair of jeans—her representation of the bricklayer’s labor “that was paved over years ago and forgotten.”

Another sits on a chair that’s supposed to be strapped to the back of the ole jalopy as it caravans west leaving behind the dusty roads of Oklahoma.

A third—a folded shirt—supposedly came off the back of a miner as he returned to his empty house to bathe and retire for the night.

Straubing said her latest work explores the sociological aspects of working-class garments and the tools of blue-collar labor—how they define a person externally and internally.

The clothing covers “the vulnerable and fragile body,” but the transparent glass allows viewers to see through superficial definitions.

“These objects become a symbol of what a person does to contribute to Western society. They become a skin, defining a person’s economic and social po-sition, as well as their gender role,” said Straubing.

Straubing is one of six artists represented in the Bullseye Gallery exhibit.

• Richard Parrish, an artist and architect who grew up in Pocatello, has created what resembles an LP record a yard in diameter. It was inspired by the Scottish architecture and armaments he encountered while serving a residency in the High-lands country. And it is made out of glass, even though it looks as if it were made out of bronze.

• Michael Rogers, who spent 11 years in Japan as head of Aichi University’s Glass Department and is now a professor at Rochester Institute of Technology, has created a couple of amazing cast and engraved glass wall sculptures weighing 50 pounds each that were based on old frames and etched with handwritten text . One, for instance, features a bird with widespread wings underneath the handwritten text of poet Ralph Waldo Emer-son.

His plates containing glass skulls were inspired by vanitas—a genre of still-life painting that flour-ished in the Netherlands in the early 17th century. Vanitas commonly featured skulls, books and flow-ers as not-so-subtle reminders of transience and the inevitability of death.

• Dante Marioni, who learned glassblowing from his father and masters like Lino Taglipietra, has

created glass acorns crisscrossed with acorn-like designs that can be mesmerizing, even dizzying, to stare into.

• Australian glassblower Giles Bettison has joined together an ancient Venetian glass-work-ing technique of fusing and cutting bundled glass canes into patterned slices with American-made colored sheet glass to create some beautiful vases.

• And Kate Baker, reportedly the hottest artist in Australia right now, has created “what resemble glass paintings of dreamlike figures often in a state of flux.

“Bullseye is so renowned that many artists are now saying they’re blown Bullseye glass art-ists instead of blown glass artists,” said Andria. “Recognizing that they catered to the top blown-glass artists in the world, Bullseye decided to open a shop to exhibit their work. And this exhibit is a representation of that.”

Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays.

Pictures don’t do justice to dante marioni’s White With Pink acorn. you have to stare inside it in person to feel the wow factor.

cassandra Straubing says that glass has the ability to display a ghostly reminiscence that represents a personal history or memory left behind. even more recent work uses mending as metaphors for the cleansing and repair of damaged emo-tions as uncomfortable personal history is cut out and new pieces stitched together to create a new life. courteSy PHoto

Brassil: health For life

By JonatHan Kane

Wood River High School senior Audrey Brassil, carrying a 3.9 grade

point average and a member of National Honor Society, wants all of us to eat healthier. To that end, she has set her sights on becoming a nutritionist and is currently a part of the Wood River High School Culinary Academy. “We all need to be eating healthier,” Brassil said. “My goal is to do it in such a way that things still taste good to eat.” Brassil admits that her main impetus is that she loves food and, after moving here at the age of one from Cape Cod, she started cooking at age five because she wanted to help her mother with dinner. “Now I can’t get enough and really love cook-ing for friends. But as I got older I wanted to shift away from unhealthy foods that we all love, like cupcakes, and find a better way to eat.” Today, Brassil is in her second year as part of the academy, along with four other seniors. There are nine first-year students. “Each year we receive three menus of three dishes that

we master and then go to a state competition in April and prepare those dishes in front of judges. Our goal is to be as proficient as possible in preparing those menus. We also learn to prepare snacks that we sell during the year to students after school.” Prior to the academy, Brassil took beginning cooking classes her freshman and sophomore years. “Today, as part of the academy, we meet four times a week with Mrs. Pratt during the last period of the day. We have six kitchens in the lab and we work on things like how to sell food and organize a game plan for selling and how to prepare certain dishes. My favorite dish last year was fennel and pear salad, which I made adjustments to, like adding spinach and pecans. It was a simple dish but really delicious and it was a lot of fun to prepare.

“Unfortunately, I missed the state competition last year be-cause I had a tennis tournament but our class won the silver and the seniors got the gold. Unfortu-nately, this year, the menus are

not as exciting because, basi-cally, they are simple chicken dishes, but it’s always fun to try to be creative with them.” At the academy, Brassil also does vol-unteer work, like participating in souper suppers at the Catho-lic Church in Hailey. “It really makes me feel good to be in-volved and it has also shown me that we can find a way to make more nutritious meals for every-body and what the health results would be like. That’s really why I want to study nutrition. I know that there is a lot of chemistry because in certain classes you study how different ingredients interact and affect each other. I want to come up with really good dishes for friends in areas like gluten-free food. There are also a lot of job opportunities in the nutrition field. There are a lot of areas of major concern and I can see myself working in a school or hospital really making a dif-ference.” It goes without saying that making a difference is the least of what Brassil will be ac-complishing.

Story & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

No. 23 Logan Smith blew away the field—both boys and girls—in the 7- to

8-year-old race at the Croy Cup Kids Race put on by The Papoose Club on Sunday. Her sister, Samantha, came in second.

Thirty-eight racers competed in the race, which had to be moved to the Sun Valley Nordic Center due to poor snow condi-tions at Croy Nordic in Hailey.

“Attendance was down quite a bit from the years that the race has been in Hailey, but okay con-sidering the last-minute change in venue,” said Tizz Miller.

The Papoose Club will hold its annual Kindercup alpine race Sunday, March 10, at Dollar Mountain. Costumes are encour-aged.

The free event features ski and snowboard races for kids ages 3 to 12. All racers will receive a commemorative pin for their efforts and an award cer-emony for the top finishers will follow the race at 12:30 p.m.

Winter Fishing!

Although most people’s vision of winter rec-

reation in the Wood River Valley revolves around slid-ing on snow and ice, for others winter is a peace-ful time to don waders and stand in the icy waters of the snowbound rivers for a chance at some of the best fishing opportunities of the year. The “Cast and Carve” (fish and ski) is a comple-mentary ideal winter vaca-tion, yet many people travel to the region specifically to fly-fish in the winter setting. One of the reasons is that the Big Wood River is one of the best fishing winter-time freestone-rivers in the west. The Big Wood River is very productive this time of year because of the geo-thermal springs that buffer cold winter water tempera-tures.

The colder weather and river-sculpted snow banks are not the only feature that contrasts winter from sum-mer fishing. Fly fishing in the winter is different from the summer in that: the fish hold in different waters; the smaller fish (less than 10-12 inches) are rarely caught in the winter; and although there are 2-3 times more winter anglers than there were 5-10 years ago, there still aren’t too many other anglers out on the rivers. Although the hardcore ex-perts are often inspired to fish in the winter, it is also a great time of year for an-glers of all levels to enjoy the sport. Beginners often have great success due to the lower river flows that accommodate shorter cast-ing distances.

The winter bug hatches (yes there are many insects with blood like antifreeze crawling in the rivers and on the snow banks) consist of midges, little-black win-ter stoneflies, blue-winged olive mayflies, and occa-sionally skwalla stoneflies, and October caddis flies. In addition to these bug hatches, anglers also find success using subsurface imitations or: sculpin min-nows, fry, leeches, scuds, golden and salmon stone-fly nymphs, and a vari-ety of caddis and mayfly nymphs. The Sturtevants’ Hailey store has an assort-ment of imitations for these trout foods along with a full guide staff willing to take you to their favorite win-ter fishing spots and teach about “the guides’ time of year” to fish.

movie review

revealing the Secret life of FDrBy JonatHan Kane

THrEE anD a HaLf BEES

Sometimes, certainly more often than in their big-bud-get counterparts, a small,

independent film hits all the right chords and, all the aspects that make a great film — script, acting, direction, cinematography and music — come together in such a way as to create a terrifically entertaining movie. Such is the case with the light and humorous new film that looks at the private life of Franklin Delano Roosevelt — Hyde Park On Hudson – Hyde Park being the President’s retreat in upstate New York as well as be-ing his mother’s home.

In addition to the marvelous and subtle direction of Roger Michel

and the excellent screenplay from the renowned playwright Rich-ard Nelson, a lion’s share of the credit for the film’s success goes to its star Bill Murray. For those of us old enough to remember his first tentative steps on Saturday Night Live, after being thrown in to replace the show’s star, Chevy Chase, his film career and growth as an actor has been a marvel to behold. This is his third triumph in as many years with Get Low and Moonrise Kingdom. Here he creates a marvelous character – a man of wit that had the pressure of the world’s fate on his shoulders. Also excellent is Laura Linney as the fifth cousin that he takes as one of many lovers and through whose eyes we view much of the film.

The story takes place in 1939 and revolves around the crucial social call of King George V (Bertie as immortalized in The King’s Speech) and Queen Elizabeth. Roosevelt is facing staunch opposi-tion from his countrymen not to en-ter the looming war and the King has come hat in hand desperate to win America to England’s side. The film is chock full of beautiful and touching moments too numerous to mention here. Chief among them is the all-night meeting between the two world leaders over brandies as Roosevelt charms and seduces his guest as well as the hysteri-cally funny picnic scene that takes place the next day. Hyde Park On Hudson is a marvel and should definitely be placed on your must-see list. tws

He joined Ketchum’s Tran-quility Teahouse at Sixth and Washington streets full time in June when Colesworthy decided she wanted to expand her gluten-free offerings.

“I said, ‘I don’t have any expe-rience with gluten-free, but I can buy books and learn,’ ” Carpen-ter recalls.

He lined the shelves in the kitchen with such books as “Asia Grill, “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” and “The Silver Palate Cookbook.” And he brought in huge containers of gluten-free oat flour, baskets full of Mojito mint and other herbs from Purple Sage, and items like coconut sugar and agave syrup, which he often uses in place of Karo syrup.

At Tranquility, Carpenter serves up weekly Winter Dinner Feasts featuring such entrées as Coq au Vin, Moroccan chicken, chicken cacciatore and slow-cooked meatloaf paired with blueberry-pear tarts, pumpkin flan and other desserts.

The display case features a variety of lemon bars, chocolate cakes, breakfast muffins and scones—all gluten-free, all tasty. There’s always a soup of the day, whether it be an African peanut chicken soup that warms even the grayest of days or white bean and kale or chicken noodle soup.

He also caters to tummies with quiches and casseroles of the day, roasted turkey, pro-volone and cranberry panini sandwiches using rosemary garlic bread, thin-crust pizzas and salads.

He knows most of the custom-ers by name, along with whether they like cream and sugar with their tea.

“I want to do what my mom did—offer really good home-cooked meals—good food at good value. I want people to feel at home here. I want them to feel like they’ve come to my house,” says Carpenter.

Carpenter offers gluten-free options for nearly everything he makes, including the chicken potpie. That’s endeared him to people like Barbara Kuhn, whose daughter can’t eat gluten.

“I love the way he shares his knowledge,” says Gail Severn. “He’s always sharing tips and techniques you can’t find in cook-

books.”“Vinny is delightful and

very knowledgeable,” adds Geri Herbert, who has taken a couple cooking classes from him. “He’s done a lot of baking and he makes what he knows so accessible to the home cook. I’ve been to so many cooking classes where the recipes are so complicated you’ll never do them at home. His recipes are good for busy lives. And he’s always ready to explain the science behind something if you ask him.”

QUIck BITES wITHcHEf VInny:

What do you order when you eat out? French onion soup. Like French bread, it’s easy to make but it’s also easy to screw up when you don’t cook it long enough or don’t use fresh herbs.

Other favs? Flatbread steak and Cuban sandwiches.

Kitchen tool you can’t do without? A hand scraper.

Other tools? I often measure things with my little finger—I don’t have time to go find a mea-suring spoon.

Biggest disappointment? I thought my grandmother had the best chocolate chip cookie recipe in the world—imagine my disappointment when it turned out to be on the back of the pack-age of chocolate chips!

Best cooking advice? Don’t think about it. Don’t sweat the small stuff, especially when you’re doing something like deco-rating a cake.

Typical day off? I stay in bed until 1 p.m. if I’ve had a busy week. I also like to go camping, hiking, shopping at The Gold Mine. And, yes, I cook dinner, even at home. It’s that family thing.

caritas to Perform Dvorak NumberBy Karen BoSSicK

Antonin Dvorak composed his “Mass in D” for the birthday celebration of a wealthy patron.

But you won’t be confusing it with the “Happy Birthday” song.

The piece by this Czechoslovakian composer is rousing, powerful and very melodic.

And it will get airplay this weekend when the Caritas Chorale presents “Mass in D” at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at St. Thomas Episcopal Church on Sun Valley Road in Ketchum.

Both concerts are free, although donations are welcome.

“It’s a piece very few people know. It’s extremely beautiful,” said Choir Director Dick Brown. “I’ve done it four times and every time I’ve found some-thing new.”

The premiere of Dvorak’s piece took place in a small Luzany chateux chapel in what was then Bo-hemia, now part of the Czech Republic. The church was too small for a large orchestra and choir so it was originally performed by a small chorus with four soloists and Dvorak at the organ.

Dvorak later expanded it so it could be played by a symphony orchestra at the request of the English Choral Society. But the Caritas Chorale will perform the first version, which many consider the preferred version as it deftly displays his ability to combine harmony, melody and counterpoint in a work for four voices.

The Caritas Chorale, which performed Dvorak’s “Stabat Mater” in 2005, will feature 60 choir mem-bers and four soloists: Soprano Amy Staiger, Alto Jeanette Gambrel, Bass Rob Farnham and Tenor Clifford. C. Sharp.

David Tacher, a Boise harpsichord player and builder and longtime harpsichordist for the Boise Baroque Orchestra, will accompany the choir on organ. Tacher has been part-time organist for St. Thomas Episcopal Church since January 2012.

Dvorak, who lived from 1841 to 1904, was known for his symphonies and chamber music. It’s

generally acknowledged that few symphony com-posers also created beautiful liturgic music. But Dvorak, considered one of the most versatile com-posers of his time, did just that composing a large number of sacred music that is still performed today, in addition to operas, serenades, concertos, gypsy songs and other forms of music.

Much of his music, including his “Slavonic Dances,” was inspired by his native Czech, Mora-vian and Slavic folks songs. But his incessant drive to explore the roots of other culture’s music led him to New York City where he headed the National Conservatory of Music from 1892 to 1895 in a bid to learn about American music, including African-American and Native American music. He not only influenced American composers but wrote “New World Symphony,” which became one of his best known works, along with “Humoresque” and “Songs My Mother Taught Me.”

organist dave tacher, past president of the idaho music teachers association and director of the annual Sonatina Piano Festival competition which attracts 400 idaho piano students, will accompany the caritas chorale during its per-formances of antonin dvorak’s “mass in d.”

Unbridled JoyBy Jamie canField, ProGram director For KSKi 103.7 Fm

The Joy Formidable is a band of many changes; they started out in Mold,

Wales, as Tricky Nixon, broke up and morphed into Sidecar Kisses, then broke up again and reformed as The Joy Formidable in 2007. Guitarist Ritzy Bryan and bassist Rhydian Dafydd are the core (and founders) of The Joy Formidable, and it comes out in their sound—textured walls of guitars with fluid basslines. Their second release, Wolf’s Law, is full of dark, yet poppy, shoegazing guitar rock with enough hooks to fill two albums. Fans of My Bloody Valentine, Lush, The Pixies and The Pains of Being Pure At Heart will find The Joy Formidable a nice ad-dition to their collection. They lack the ethereal (and sometimes almost incoherent) lyrics of My Bloody Valentine, the tongue-in-cheek lyrics of Lush and the crazed rants of The Pixies, but they’re all good starting points of reference. The album’s opener, “This Ladder Is Ours,” takes its time getting a head of steam, but once it gets there, it roars. The momentum never stops; the second song, “Cholla,” just plain rocks and that surging energy only momentarily takes a break about halfway through the album with the break-up ballad, “The Silent Treatment.” Then, it’s right back onto the sonic bul-let train with “Maw Maw Song.” The songs oscillate between bludgeoning and soothing; a non-stop sonic rollercoaster that leaves you wanting more. Wolf’s Law is, from beginning to end, a tour de force to be reckoned with. Loudly. tws

things i learned in yoga, Part 3

By alySHa BetH oclaSSen

Change is an inevitable fact of human life

and we all know it. We age, learn, try to figure out how to pay our bills and be happy. We have ups and downs. Experiences we have require adjusting to. Our bodies move from one stage to another and then, eventually, we all leave this world for greener pastures. Change is an inescapable part of life. So why do we resist it so much?

In my unprofessional opinion, I think it’s because different is unknown and therefore scary. As children, we are taught our parents’ values and we, like good little sponges, absorb them and then repeat them as we become adults. Most of these teachings are very valuable; be nice, share, eat your broccoli, value your family and friends. Other learned behaviors—addictive patterning, self-destructiveness, and prejudices—are not so great. But, they are familiar and, consequently, sticking with them makes us feel safe. Even if we become self-aware enough to recognize our unbeneficial belief systems, changing them can be very, very scary, indeed.

In yoga practice we learn to hold our poses through the uncomfortable mo-ments. We learn to take deep breaths and allow the changes in our bodies to happen gently. We learn to be grateful to uncomfortable tightness because it shows us where we need to open up. I have found that these principles apply directly off the mat as well. The heart-aches that we feel can be looked at as horrible, but they can also be seen as tools to show us the places where we are stuck. When looked at from this angle, the people who we do not enjoy become our most valuable teachers, who prod us on to evolve, even if we really don’t want to.

One of my favorite yoga quotes is: “The moment you want to leave the pose is the moment the yoga truly begins” —Manorama. My real-life translation: “The most uncomfort-able/painful spot you find yourself in is the spot where the most growth and positive change can occur.”

This concept is so simple but very different from the “pain is bad, RUN!” idea that most of us are taught. And it is so very difficult to remember, particularly if you are in the middle of a crisis. When I find myself immersed, my pattern usually goes something like this: Cry, scream, call a friend, vent, cry some more, and then, on a good day, to quote another wonderful teacher of mine, “I put on my big-girl pants and get on with it!” At this point I can usually find the strength to re-flect on what I could be learning from that situation and find the gratitude for the experience.

I don’t always walk away imme-diately feeling like a brilliant and evolved human. In fact, many times I feel a bit deflated. But deflated only means that now I get to choose what to fill back up with, which is a very liberating feeling. If I’ve made it to the liberation part, I know I’m unstuck. Unstuck = change. And change is both inevitable, and much easier when you embrace it, learn from it and move forward, wearing your big-girl pants proudly.

By marGot Van Horn

A dear friend of mine always has the best impromptu parties.

Well, they may be sort of im-promptu but I know that she cooks for days—starting at 4 in the morning. She always has a variety of dishes that everyone loves and devours. She truly is the best hostess, never resting until everyone is well served. Of course, no one refuses an invitation to her parties. Her Linzer Torte I find is the best. It’s her Christmas gift to her guests and, actually, when I am her guest at one of her parties, I make it my dinner. Of course, the next day, when I get on the scales, I hate myself. Luckily, she makes quite a few of these tortes for her guests so there always seems to be enough to go around. It’s really not that difficult to make and I’m sure that you and your guests will love it as much as we all do and, furthermore, I think that it’s a perfect goody to make for Valentine’s. Bon Appètit!!!!

Linzer Torte Serves 8 (but don’t expect

any leftovers)

Ingredients:1 ½ C. sifted flour1/4 tsp. salt1 C. sifted sugar1 C. sweet butter, room

temperature –2 cubesGrated rind of 1 lemon3 egg yolks (keep them

separate)1 C. unblanched almonds

(I use the slivered kind); grind them in a grinder and then mix evenly with 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and 1/4 tsp. ground cloves.

1 10-oz. jar jam of your choice. If you wish, you can mix in well 1 ½ Tbsp. brandy or Kirsch.

Confectioners’ sugar for the final dusting just before serving.

Directions:Preheat oven to 375 de-

grees after your dough has been refrigerated for an hour or more.

In a bowl, sift the flour once more with the salt.

In a larger bowl, cream the sugar with the butter until the mixture is light and fluffy. (You can use egg beaters.)

Add the grated rind of 1 lemon to this mixture and then add the 3 egg yolks (one yolk at a time),

beating well after each addition.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the 1 C. ground almonds, which has already been mixed with the cinnamon and cloves.

You can knead this with your hands.

Chill the dough in the refrigerator for an hour or more.

In an 8-inch, 9-inch or 10-inch springform pan, the sides of which have been lightly greased and the bottom lightly greased and dusted with flour (or sugar), and the dough forked slightly to make some holes, pat enough of the dough (make sure to save enough to make a lattice for the top) to reach ¼- to ½-inch thickness on the bottom and to also reach about 1 ½ inches up the sides of the form so that it will be higher than your jam. You can also use parchment paper to line your pan.

Spread the dough with 12 oz. (more or less) of the jam of your preference.

Now is the time to roll with the hands several long thin strips to use as a lattice. Intertwine the strips so that it’ll look pretty when served and place on top of your torte.

Bake the torte in your preheated oven for 30-45 minutes till it is golden brown on top and the jam is slightly bubbling. I watch it carefully so that it doesn’t get overdone and too brown because then the crust will be tough.

Cool the torte thoroughly before unlatching and remov-ing from the pan; fill the holes on top with more jam. I gently slide a knife on the bottom to release and slide the torte onto a pretty plate and sometimes surround it with rose petals.

Finally, right before serving, dust the top with powdered sugar.

Extra hint: You can re-frigerate this in the pan for several days before serving and then release it. Also, if you wrap very well on its own in Saran wrap and aluminum foil, it freezes nicely.

Re my last recipe, Aspara-gus and Prosciutto Strata, correction and apology, please: 1. Blend the lemon rind with the milk and eggs; and, 2. For the layers, substi-tute my directed lemon rind with the asparagus that you have prepared.

Sacred harp Group BeginsStory & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

You may have heard them stir the soul as they sang “I’m Going Home” in “Cold Moun-tain.”

Now some local people want to start a Sacred Harp singing group in the Wood River Valley.

The group will show the documentary, “Awake My Soul, The Story of the Sacred Harp,” which describes the rich history of the Sacred Harp, at 4 p.m. Saturday at Emmanuel Episcopal Church on the corner of Bullion Street and Second Avenue in Hailey.

Jenny Jenson of the Utah Sacred Harp singing group will lead interested participants in actual singing at 4 p.m. Sunday at the church. A potluck dinner will follow at 6 p.m.

The Sacred Harp actually has nothing to do with the harp as a musical instrument, said Janet Houts, one of those introducing the music form to the Valley. It’s actually a form of four-part a ca-pella singing that originated in the South in 1844 using hymns from the book, “The Sacred Harp.”

It’s also called shape-note singing because it uses shaped notes in the form of triangles, ovals, rectangles and diamonds so that one does not need to know how to read music in order to learn the tunes.

No musical experience is required. There is no director and participants are encouraged to take turns leading the songs.

Singers sit in a circle or square facing one an-other. The singing normally occurs not in church services but in special sing-a-longs. Often, they’re coupled with a potluck meal in the middle of the day called “dinner on the grounds.”

Sacred Harp singing has experienced a resur-gence in popularity in modern times with sing-ing communities in most U.S. cities, including Chicago, and many rural areas. It also has spread to England, Australia and even Poland.

“The hymns have a joyful and boisterous quality because they are sung straight from the heart in an ‘open-throat’ manner,” said Houts.

Bellevue quilter Janet Houts, on the right of the accord Sisters, is now starting a Sacred Harp singing group that’s open to anyone—even if you’ve just sung in the shower up until now.

chef Steven Johnson and Shannon Bourn kept busy churning out teriyaki chicken wings, spring rolls and other hors d’oeuvres.

Story & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

A trip to the walk-in freezer has become less of an adventure for Steven

Johnson.With the remodeling of the Se-

nior Connection, his freezer has moved indoors so he no longer needs to brave wind and snow and flies to fetch a roast or box of chicken breasts.

“The old kitchen was so old and broken down—I love my new kitchen,” said the chef for the Senior Connection.

“And the best part is this window,” he added, looking out a window that offered a view of kids playing hockey on the skate rink in the Hailey rodeo grounds and a pink sunset streaking between the mountains towering over Croy Canyon. “I thought I would get a prison window that I’d have to stand on a ladder to look out. But this window makes my day.”

Johnson kept ovens in his kitchen going full blast Friday evening as he served up spring rolls, teriyaki chicken drum-sticks, flautas and other hors d’oeuvres to a few hundred people who stopped by to check out the newly remodeled facility.

Director Kim Coonis showed off an art room for the Connec-tion Club, which offers care for between 10 and 20 Alzheimer’s patients four days a week so family members can catch their breath.

Also on the tour: a TV room that doubles as a small meet-ing room; an exercise room filled with one- and five-pound weights, mats and chairs for chair exercise; a pool room; and an expanded dining room with a remodeled bar that makes

it easier for serve the 40 to 65 seniors who eat lunch there five days a week.

“The remodel cost $1.8—un-der the $2.3 million we initially thought it would cost,” she said. “It basically doubles the amount of usable space,” she added.

The Senior Connection touch-es the lives of 150 to 200 people a day, including 70 to 80 people who receive Meals on Wheels five days a week.

“It’s such an improvement,” said Hailey resident Betty Grant, as she treated two grand-children and their friend to ice cream sundaes in the old-fash-ioned Scoops ice cream parlor. “The walk-in freezer alone is worth it—it’s all nice, all new.”

But, some of the seniors la-mented, they will miss getting to watch Johnson cook.

“They used to be able to sit and watch me throw wine on something and have the flames go up—the ladies especially loved that,” said Johnson, who has worked at the Senior Con-nection for three years after having served as a private chef and a chef for Sun Valley Resort and other restaurants.

“But I think we’ll be just fine,” he said. “The kitchen really is the heart and soul of this place. And I love my job. It’s like hav-ing 50 sets of grandparents. And they’re all so genuinely grateful for every meal I make.”

la Boheme takes Stage tonightBy Karen BoSSicK

Load up on the hankies. “La Boheme” isn’t exactly a barrel of laughs.

But the story of a sickly seam-stress named Mimi who falls in love with an impoverished poet named Rodolfo is one of the best loved of all operas.

And you can see it tonight as a Tony Award-winning soprano and a matinee-idol type bring it to life at the Wood River High School Performing Arts Theater in Hailey.

The Utah Lyric Opera pre-sented in conjunction with Sun Valley Opera starts at 7 p.m.

“It was one of the world’s first reality shows, as audiences saw real people of everyday life with their joys and struggles, as opposed to gods, kings and my-thology,” said Sun Valley Opera co-founder Frank Meyer.

“ ‘Rent,’ which was on Broad-way for 12 years, was based on ‘La Boheme.’ And Della Re-ese recorded a hit song in the 1950s—‘Don’t You Know?’—that

was from ‘La Boheme.’ ”The storyline is a moving

one in and of itself. Giacomo Puccini’s beautiful, sometimes haunting, melodies don’t just tug at the heartstrings, they pull them way out of shape.

Tonight’s performance fea-tures a cast of seven singers, fully staged.

Mimi will be played by Lisa Hopkins Seegmiller, who won a Tony Award for her portrayal of Mimi in Baz Luhrmann’s Broad-way version of “La Boheme.” Tenor Isaac Hurtado will play her beau, Rodolfo.

The play, under the direction of Emmy-nominated screen-writer Elizabeth Hansen, will also feature baritone Christo-pher Holmes and soprano Jennie Litster. Pianist Lawrence F. Gee, assistant conductor at the New York City Opera under Beverly Sills, will accompany the performance.

Seegmiller said the opera is a cathartic experience.

“Like all of us, Rodolfo and Mimi go through the ups and

downs of a passionate, commit-ted relationship. Mimi’s im-minent death by tuberculosis, however, brings into painful but exquisite focus the beauty of love between a man and a woman,” she said.

“The tragedy of Rodolfo and Mimi allows the audience the cathartic experience of grieving and celebrating loves past and present. Most of all, their univer-sally-applicable story teaches us the eternal truth that the most important thing we can learn in this life is to love and be loved in return.”

Girlfriends lunch caters to 98 Fair ladiesStory By Karen BoSSicK

The weather cooperated, casting a gray London-like pall over Elkhorn Springs

Restaurant.Inside, Laura Apshaga trotted

out cucumber radish English tea sandwiches, London fog split pea soup, Lava Lake Lamb shepherd’s pie and Earl Grey truffle bars.

Dick Brightman offered a sampling of things to come as he sang “Get Me to the Church on Time,” while Sara Gorby, Cherie Kessler and Melodie Taylor Mauldin tickled listeners’ palettes with “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?”

It may be eight months until “My Fair Lady” takes the stage, but 98 ladies were treated as fair ladies Thursday afternoon as St. Thomas Playhouse held its sixth annual Cabaret Girlfriends Luncheon to raise funds for its community theater program and youth performing arts camps.

“The work that goes on is significant,” said R.L. Rowsey, who will direct next October’s production of “My Fair Lady.” “It helps change lives. It helps people who are stuck. It helps them get going again.”

The luncheon featured a vari-ety of raffle packages in keeping with the “My Fair Lady” theme, including a getaway Ascot race package that included tickets to Les Bois racetrack in Boise.

Julie McKenna bid $600 for a cameo role as one of the aristo-crats in “My Fair Lady’s” Ascot race.

R.L. Rowsey put himself and his Few Good Men a cappella group on the auction block—go-ing, going twice for $2,400—for a private concert, coupled with voice lessons from Rowsey, a gift certificate to Main St. Market and a case of wines from S&C Importers.

Another $600 went toward a guided bicycling, skiing and mountain hike/picnic package offered by The Elephant’s Perch and Jane Reynolds, who raced throughout the world with the U.S. Development Cycling Team.

Toni Breck described how she barely even knew how to get on a bike when Reynolds offered a few pointers as Breck and her husband prepared to tour Spain by bike.

“Only in Sun Valley would you have someone come up to you and say, ‘Oh, I can help. I used to be a pro cyclist,’ ” she recounted. “I was able to ride my bike in Spain and not give up, what with Jane’s coaching in my head.”

Melody Mauldin, who played the lead role of Anna in last fall’s “King and I” while her son Luke and Sam Fauth took turns playing her son, lamented how friends across the nation have found themselves scrambling for work as opera and theater companies have gone dark.

“I have incredible memories of my son in that play,” she said, begging the audience not to let St. Thomas Playhouse close its doors. “There is something spe-cial in this Playhouse.”

Rowsey told the women that they are the anchor of the St. Thomas Playhouse.

“With ‘The Music Man,’ we explored the idea of community. Last year in ‘The King and I’ we explored the idea of acceptance and tolerance for people who don’t look like ourselves,” he said.

“This year we will talk about transformation—the possibility we can become something other than what we are. There are people in our community today who need transformation, who need a shift. And ‘My Fair Lady’ will open up an avenue to look

at that.”Teen-ager Olivia Ott said she

hopes she can land a role in the play: “I saw it when I was 7. I loved it. I loved the music. I loved the story.”

Ketchum resident Connie Hoffman echoed her sentiments.

“When I was a little kid, my mom got the album for ‘My Fair Lady’ and we played it over and over,” she said. “The idea of tak-ing a rough girl and turning her into a lady, the story of rags to riches, was very appealing to a little country girl from Jerome.”

2013 SEaSonSt. thomas Playhouse will kick off

its 2013 season with its children’s the-ater tour of “Stone Soup” during late February and march.

the play, which features original songs by andrew alburger, revolves around a peddler who teaches hoard-ing townspeople gripped in a period of drought and famine that they can make much out of what appears to be nothing with a little teamwork.

other performances:June 19-22—the Summer theater

Project for youth will present “West Side Story,” a timeless romeo and Juliet-type story about two teenagers caught in a feud between rival gangs.

Being DefensiveI was so nervous when my

daughter turned 16. Not onlywas she starting to date, but nowshe was getting her driver'slicense.

Before I would allow her todrive on her own, I insisted shetake a defensive driving course. Itold her she had to learn sometechniques from a professional.

Like any teenager, she rolledher eyes and complained thewhole way to the course. As weboth sat in the classroom waitingfor the instructor, I again tried toexplain, "This guy is going toshow us how to be better driv-ers."

My comment fell on deaf earswhen the instructor entered,"Sorry I'm late, but believe it ornot, I was just in a car accident!"

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,In the past four years, I've hadtwo cars and six accidents. Thefirst car, a light brown sedan,was hit in the passenger anddriver's side twice. After thefourth accident I bought a whiteVolkswagen that was rear-endedthe first week I owned it. Thenlast week I was in a car accidentthat practically totaled the frontpassenger side. My sister triesto tell me it's my driving, but I'mconvinced that it's the lousy carcolors that make the difference.Maybe I need somethingbrighter so people can see mecoming. My sister drives a redsports car and has never beenin an accident yet. She's not agreat driver. So now I'm shop-ping the classified ads for yetanother car. Can you tell me thebest color to get? Thenmaybe I can prove tomy sister that carcolor does make a dif-ference.

• • •Cash: After six acci-

dents, your insurance agent mustbe on speed dial.

Carry: You may need morethan a bright colored car. Maybeyou need some flashing lights togo with it.

Cash: Regardless of your next

car color, try taking a defensivedriving course. With so manyaccidents, you could certainly usethe discount on your car insur-ance.

Carry: As for the color, it mightseem that a brighter car would beeasier to see on the road. Dark col-ored cars tend to blend into thebackground and white may be hardto see on snowy days.

Cash: However despite numer-ous studies, there is no solid con-clusion on how car color affectsaccidents. Since there are somany variables such as weatherconditions, surrounding landscapeand even experience of the driver,it's difficult to relate color to acci-dents.

Carry: It seems you'll have to

prove your sister wrong in otherways. If you think that color mayaffect your driving, then by allmeans, choose a color that makesyou feel safer. Anything that maygive you more confidence behindthe wheel could help you in thefuture.

Cash: Also, if you're worriedabout people seeing your car,remember to drive with yourheadlights on. Even during day-light hours, turning on your lightscan help other cars notice you onthe road. However, there’s noth-ing that can substitute for drivingdefensively to avoid an accident.

Carry: And who knows, with alittle luck you won't have to talk toyour insurance agent anytimesoon.

BY THE WEEKLY SUN

lanning to say “I do” sometime soon? Or coordinating the “talk about” party of the year? If the Sun Valley area is your perfect backdrop,

here are some inside tips on getting you from initial concept to final toast with confidence and

kudos. Location: If you’ve chosen the Wood River Valley as your

dot on the map, that says that you love the outdoors, the mountains and the laid-back lifestyle. Within this unique framework, you might be surprised to learn that there are so many simple and sophisticated options.

Aside from the quintessential Sun Valley Resort, there ex-ists a world of choice here, with many locations that vow to deliver rave reviews, no matter what the occasion. We’ve got a number of beautiful mountain gems with stunning panoramas and pretty wildflowers. We’ve got gorgeous, lodge-like club facilities and casual ranch-style accommodations. We’ve got breathtaking mountain views and lush gardens with dramatic water features.

Timing: We also have seasons here. All of them. Some are shorter than others, but all are beautiful in different ways and all lend themselves to individual preferences. While summer is undoubtedly the most popular season for both weddings and events in the Wood River Valley, elegant plans can be designed around just about any of our fabulous winter sports. And, if you’re into extremes, we’ve got that, too. With outfit-ters and suppliers that provide for every need on the moun-tain, on the river, in the backcountry, or nestled into one of the handsome resort area lodges, the sky is virtually the limit.

Nibbles: Whether you’re envisioning a formal dinner for hundreds, or a small, casual affair for a dozen of your closest friends, the quality de cuisine here is stellar. Caterers and res-taurants here are used to handling extraordinary details while attending to elite international travelers and high-end busi-nesses. Whatever you can dream up, they can provide. Many are creative in their own right as well, having published cook-books or style guides, and can suggest their very best food-to-event pairings. If you’re organically inclined, the Valley has choices that will delight there as well, with a broad selection of farmers and ranchers investing in low-profile chemistry, complemented by intuitive and creative chefs.

Services: Wood River Valley event planners have expertise in every facet of throwing a party, especially décor, music and activities. From elegant tents and jaw-dropping floral arrange-ments, to never-forget-it celebrations on horseback or skis. Don’t forget a photographers to capture those special mo-ments. Choices abound in the Wood River Valley, so find the style that fits you and (we recommend) book early!

Gilding the Lily: Clothes may make the man, but diamonds are a girl’s best friend, and jewelers here have just the right rings and things to create a lifetime of Sun Valley memories. Custom settings and unique lines, as well as traditional set-tings, are beautiful ways to ensure lasting reminders of your special event.

Details: If you’re traveling to the Sun Valley area from another state, why bring it with you? It’s all here waiting, from paper goods and invites to tuxedoes and makeup, hair stylists and spas to bankers and financial advisors, your needs can be met and exceeded by businesses and services used to working with sophisticated clientele.

From the initial planning stages, make your life simpler by placing event details in the hands of locally based profession-als that have the expertise, knowledge, products and connec-tions to create the perfect event for your exquisite day in the sun. tws

We offer a completewedding and gift registry

for the happy couple!

Don’t marry the person you think you can live with;

marry only the individual you think you can’t live without.

Planning a wedding can be overwhelm-ing, with dozens of

important decisions to be made before the big day. During such a hectic time, most couples spend more time on things like picking out a China pat-tern than they do talking about their finances. However, if you’re about to tie the knot, it’s a good idea to have a frank and honest discussion about money with your future spouse so you can start your marriage off on the right foot.

According to a recent survey from the American Institute of CPAs, financial matters are the most common source of con-flict among American couples. Unexpected expenses, mount-ing debt, problems stemming from inadequate savings, and inability to prioritize needs versus wants are just a few of the financial issues that can put stress on a relationship. Do you know how your philosophy on saving and spending differs from that of your partner? Do you know if he or she has good or bad financial habits? Answer-ing these questions now can help prevent stressful moments down the road.

As you begin your life to-gether, an important first step is to establish a budget. Taking a complete inventory of your combined monthly income and expenses will give you a clear idea of your total financial picture. Be sure to be up front about the amount of debt you’ll each be bringing to the mar-riage, including student loans, credit cards, car loans, etc., since they will soon be your joint responsibility. You may even want to consider ordering credit reports for yourselves in order to

avoid any surprises. Once you have a

handle on your cash flow, determine who will pay the bills, and establish ground rules for purchasing big-ticket items. You’ll also need to decide whether to combine your checking accounts or keep them

separate. You may even find it best to develop a hybrid solution, maintaining a joint account to pay for rent, utilities, groceries, and other monthly expenses, and individual accounts for personal, discretionary spending. Every couple is different, so choose the option that works best for you.

With your budget in place, it’s time to talk about your financial future together. Where do you see yourselves in 10, 20, or 30 years? Are children in your fu-ture? Do you have an emergency fund in place? Is it time to start saving for a down payment on a house? Have you already set up retirement accounts?

Make plans to revisit your finances on a monthly — or even weekly — basis. Regularly setting aside time to talk about your financial situation can help strengthen your relationship and keep you focused on your goals.

Finally, don’t be afraid to ask for assistance. A professional financial advisor can provide clear, objective advice and help you work toward your goals.

Aron Ames gained his training as a photogra-pher in the U.S. Navy. The photo lab aboard the aircraft carrier on which he worked could accom-modate any photo project. From film processing, to darkroom and studio work, to fast-paced, high-adrenaline photo sessions during flight ops on the flight deck, the end result had to be flawless. It is this attention to detail that Aron will bring to your project. Aron can be found riding a vintage café racer motorcycle, mountain biking, or backpack-ing to an alpine lake in preparation for a morning shoot when the light is at its prime. His passion for the outdoors and overall zest for life will resonate in the memories recorded on your wedding day.

A Boise native, David Kvapil is an entirely self-taught photographer with a natural eye for compo-sition. He loves catching the moments that people don’t always see or remember, and seeing the

reactions on couples’ faces when going through the photos with them. David is an avid rock climber and outdoor enthusiast. He grew up playing hockey and played a few seasons in the professional minor leagues.

Photography service available without travel fees in all of central Idaho and the Boise area. Aron and David are reasonably available for desti-nation wedding photography and location assign-ments.

Lenny Joseph Productions

208-720-2918www.lENNyjoSEph.CoM

For weddings, I really try to work with the bride and the groom to make sure

that the party goes the way they want. I will work with them to make sure that the music fits the mood and atmosphere that they are going for. I also try really hard to make sure that everyone has a good time and dances. We can meet and work together on “must-play” lists and also on “do-not-play” lists, or we can correspond through e-mail or over the phone. I am also more than happy to emcee any parts of your wedding, such as introductions and, of course, the first dance.

I have all my own equipment, including speakers, a wireless microphone and lights, and I will make sure it is set up and tested before the guests arrive.

Primavera Plants & Flowers208-726-7788 • 511 lEAdvIllE AvE., KEtChuM

Whether it’s winter, spring, summer or fall, weddings happen every

season of the year, and the time of year has a subtle effect on the colors, the style, the flowers, and the ambiance of the day. Incor-porating the personality of the couple always makes the details more fun and intimate. Hav-ing your wedding in Sun Valley means there’s something to do for everyone, and it makes the wedding celebration into a vaca-tion event. In Sun Valley, you have so many choices… indoors or outside, or a combination of both; the ceremony may be in a church, a meadow, by the river,

a lake, or even on top of Bald Mountain!

As a wedding consultant, coor-dinator and florist, I have spent over 30 years helping couples make their wedding day a dream come true. The flowers create the magic of the moment that will live on in cherished memories and photographs forever. What-ever your budget, dreams and desires may be, there’s always a way to make your wedding special and unique.

Good luck, happy planning, and all the best!

For an outdoor Idaho wedding, birthday party, family reunion, or other event… Redfish Lake can’t be beat! Redfish Lake Lodge

provides a unique and memorable setting for your special event. We specialize in weddings and have everything you need to enjoy this day with family and friends.

With the stunning Sawtooth Mountains as a backdrop, Redfish Lake Lodge sits nestled at 6,500 feet on the north shore of glacier-carved Redfish Lake. Only 60 miles north of Ketchum/Sun Valley, the Lodge, with its 40 rental units, has hosted families, backpackers, outdoor enthusiasts and all lovers of nature since 1929. Our outdoor gazebo is famous for fish tacos, pulled-pork sandwiches, hamburgers and “livin’ the dream” ice cream. You can spend the day on the lake in one of our motor-ized or non-motorized rentals, or shuttle to the far end of the lake, where you can enter backcountry beauty beyond description. Or, just spend the day on the beach or front porch with your nose in a book, knowing the kids are safe in the shallow, sandy waters in front of the Lodge. We also have a General Store with souvenirs, food, gear and beverages.

The resort proudly serves homespun meals—breakfast, lunch and dinner—in our full-service dining room. The staff at Redfish Lake Lodge is happy to work with you to personalize your unique occasion.

Redfish Lake Lodge has also received the Sun Valley runner-up award for “Best Place for a Wed-ding.” We take pride in what we do, and we do it well!

The Sheepskin Coat Factory rents high-quality tuxedos for weddings and other

special occasions, with many styles and colors from which to choose. This is one of the many services we have provided for our customers over the years. The Sheepskin Coat Factory began in 1971 with a simple idea: make coats out of a natural, renewable resource in abundant supply—shearling—otherwise known as sheepskin. From our humble beginnings, we pioneered the shearling coat business in the U.S., manufacturing our own products for many years right here in Ketchum. Over the years, our focus shifted from manufacturing to seeking out

the finest domestic and imported designs from all over the world. We proudly offer shearling coats with fur and wool trim, and men’s and ladies’ leather garments produced in the USA. Today, our business continues to thrive as we service customers from all corners of the country and worldwide. Our quality products and expert service (cleaning, repairs, alterations and tuxedo rental) have been the backbone of our success, and has earned us the highest level of trust and satisfaction with our customers. Call us at 726-3588 or stop by our store at 511 Sun Valley Road, Ketchum, as your special day deserves special at-tention. tws
