Women and War Highlight

Film FestBy Karen BoSSicK

The documentary “The World Be-fore Her” looks at the contrast between two boot camps.

One is a month-long beauty boot camp for 20 Miss India Pageant finalists who submit to Botox, skin bleaching, weight-loss regimens to fit into their bikinis and classes showing them how to walk in stilettos.

The other boot camp puts rifles on the shoulders of 14-year-olds as they run to the beat of Bhangra music and sing militant fundamentalist hymns, preparing to defend their anti-Gandhi ideology against foreigners, Chris-tians and Muslims.

India-born, Toronto-bred Nisha Pahuja will show her film, which won the World Documentary Competition Award at the Tribeca Film Festival, Saturday night as part of the Sixth Annual Family of Woman Film Festi-val at the Sun Valley Opera House.

Pahuja says she initially set out to make a film about the Miss India beauty contest as a prism through which to explore a country that’s go-ing through major cultural changes. She included the nationalistic move-ment as she read about the backlash from the Hindu fundamentalist move-ment.

“As I got into it, I realized that the two ideologies governing present-day reality are capitalism, which can be equated with the beauty pageant, and fundamentalism, which drives the Hindu fundamentalist boot camp,” she said.

Hindu fundamentalism started as a nationalist movement during India’s struggle for independence and is heav-ily influenced by the Sangh, a group influenced by Hitler.

Fourteen Finger Fos& His NewAlbum

Joe Fos recently released his fourth CD, which is available at the Sun Valley Lodge gift shop.

“Fourteen fingers.” That’s been Joe Fos’ nick-name ever since Robert Gou-

let quipped that Fos must have 14 fingers because he played so nimbly.

Now, decades later, Fos is still dazzling listeners at the wood-paneled Duchin Room in the Sun Valley Lodge where he’s marking his 34th year as pianist-in-resi-dence.

And he has a new CD— “Romantic Interludes”—to boot.

The CD, which features such numbers as “Try To Remember,” “My Funny Valen-tine” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of

You,” is his fourth. Fos actually recorded the tape that the CD was made from 15 years ago in Amos Galpin’s Mountain Beach Studio in Ketchum but didn’t release it until this year.

“When I heard it, I couldn’t believe it,” he said. “I’ve been playing it like crazy. It’s cool. It’s clean. It’s absolutely the best I’ve done.”

By Karen BoSSicK

Do something reckless, spontaneous, legal—something that makes

you feel like you are living life. That’s the assignment Scott Rog-ers gave students in his Health Class at College of Southern Idaho last week.

Gwen Mesce took him up on his assignment, called “Fun Weekend,” and went wild. She enlisted Chuck Smith from Fly Sun Valley in her homework assignment and together they jumped off Baldy soaring above the snow-lined streets of Ket-chum.

“I have always wanted to go paragliding. And I hope this will inspire others to do the things that they wish to do,” said Mesce. “In reality, I don’t think I ever would have done this with-out the initiative of my teacher. It was a great lesson in doing, as opposed to wanting.”

You might say that Mesce had already “jumped off the cliff” when she went back to school

last year to give herself more options and to be a role model for her 8-year-old son.

Taking the steps to paraglide proved a huge lesson, she said.

“Everytime I see a paraglider, I watch them with curiosity, wonder and excitement. But, even though paragliding has been at my fingertips for years, I have never taken the initiative to make the call. Every day is filled with choices that can be made. Often times we choose between what we have to do and want we want and what we wish we could do. The first two choices are usually the ones that we battle with and we can often discern for a balance between the two. What about the things we wish we could do? I can relate the moment of picking up the phone and calling Fly Sun Valley to the moment I was strapped into the harness about to jump. Actually, being in the moment above Ketchum wasn’t the hard part. It was getting there!”

the Welcome center at Werth-heimer Park is ready to open its alder doors to all this week.

Hailey mayor Fritz Haemmerle, the city of Hailey and the Hailey chamber of commerce invite you to join them at the grand opening from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. this Friday, march 1, with the ribbon-cutting at 6 p.m.

the little red, but very green build-ing is the new home of the interpre-tive center and the Hailey chamber of commerce and Visitors center. the

interpretive center will feature arti-facts and exhibits celebrating the rich history of the former Werthheimer property for the past 125 years.

Stop by to enjoy this event of “com-ing together through time” this Friday evening.

For more information on this in-credible project and its many thought-ful and creative collaborators, contact: mary cone at 208-788-4221, ext. 11, or Heather dawson at 208-788-4221, ext. 18.

Grand opening and ribbon cutting

Phil raney, owner/operator, hyper-baric technician and emt, has opened Hyperbarics of Sun Valley. Phil is a navy-trained deep-sea diver and cer-tified hyperbaric chamber operator. He has been diving and running cham-ber operations for the u.S. military for 11 years. the chamber is located at 21 comet lane, Suite a, in Hailey (720-4603). dr. nancy Parry is the medical director and is certified in diving and Hyperbaric team training with cham-ber operation and transcutaneous oximetry.

Hyperbaric oxygen saturates tis-sues at the cellular level and is a non-invasive, safe method of treating many conditions such as: wound care, traumatic brain injury, stroke, lyme’s disease, autism, cP, Parkinson’s, m.S., post-op healing, and many other med-ical conditions.

Hyperbaric oxygen, or HBot, is a prescribed treatment approved by the Fda and ama in which a person breathes 100 percent medical-grade oxygen while under increased pres-sure. the treatment is given in a mono-place (single-occupancy) cham-ber. during treatment, the patient can

relax by watching a movie, listening to music or a book on cd or just resting.

Providing oxygen in a pressurized chamber allows the delivery of 10-15 times more oxygen than if it was delivered at sea level or at normal atmospheric pressures. HBot oxygen-ates, repairs and regenerates tissue, fights infection, grows new capillar-ies, increases stem cell production and highly reduces the “inflammatory reaction.” recent studies from the university of Pennsylvania School of medicine are showing that a typical course of HBot increases by eight-fold the number of stem cells circulating in a patient’s body; stem cells are crucial to injury repair.

habitat for non-humanity

the village of nagaon, eastern nepal.

Story & PHoto By Bali SZaBo

Nagaon, at 13,550 feet, was one of the earth’s rare

productive settlements at this altitude. I stood atop a small rise and looked over a stunning town-scape. It resembled a dug-in battlefield. Like the previ-ous town of Beding, every house was made from hunks of stone the mountains yielded with readiness. What it lacked was Beding’s decorative touches, like wood-framed doors and windows, plaster and red paint. Long, waist-high stone walls stretched into the distance. The houses were hunkered down against the elements, as close to the ground as possible. Stones weighed down the pieces of rooftop slate. (This is a universally shared feature of high-altitude alpine communities. Nepal’s mountain architecture shares many com-mon touches with Switzerland and Latin America.) There were no two-story structures. Nothing stood out, or above, town, as, if it dared, it’d be chopped off by the wind. The visual coherence with the surrounding landscape was total. The gray and black walls of the broad valley cradled this stone village like mother, a child.

Nagaon was built atop the arable land of the valley. Every

house had its tended plots, used to grow pota-toes. The gently sloping, grassy south-facing side was left for the goats, sheep and yaks, visible in the distance, grazing in the meadow where we would be encamped. I’m often asked, as a traveler, what’s my favorite place?

This was one. Of course, the question is impossible to answer. Every place, like everyone, has its own beauty and character. Ranking them is a meaningless societal obsession.

Today’s job, besides rubber-necking, was my first attempt to cook something for this gather-ing. As a chef, I spent some time every day in the kitchen tent, just being nosy. The sherpas knew I was a chef, a ‘cook man,’ and they were quick to point out that cooking outside was very different. I had to show them that they were wrong. Besides, everyone expected me to cook something, and I had planned to make brownies and had brought one pound of Ghirardelli semi-sweet chocolate along for that purpose. I had planned to make two batches, one with and one without, marijuana. After all, there were older, more conserva-tive ‘pillars of society’ among us who no doubt disapproved of the drug. To my great shock, no one wanted the straight brownies. I

was out-voted. This was classic resort behavior—far from home, no one will know, ‘what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas,’ no job, no driving, no responsibilities, a celebratory attitude. Perfect.

I worked with the head cook, Ang Nyima, who knew the fire I needed because he baked cakes as a matter of routine. I had the eggs, the butter, the millet flour and the sugar and one of the world’s better chocolates. I made the batter, wrote everything down, poured it into two pans (one for the sherpas) and set them in a field oven. The latter is a large pot, with the smaller pan of batter elevated above

the bottom for hot air circula-tion. Thirty minutes of baking time should have done it, but I didn’t adjust for the consider-able altitude. Ang Nyima was very doubtful about the outcome, as was I, but after an hour, the rich, fudgy brownies were done. The following day was a rest day, the perfect occasion for reefer madness. (The Joy of Cooking has excellent directions for high-altitude baking.)

Did last week’s introduction to the toxic ingredients in some cleaning products

get you starting reading labels? When purchasing “green” prod-ucts, be wary of undefined words such as “natural.” Reading labels is good, but better yet, make your own cleaning products to avoid those toxic chemicals. Try these recipes: you’ll reduce the empty bottles in our landfill, save money, and reduce toxic chemicals that cause havoc in the waterways and on your health.

Bathroom Cleaner: Sprinkle baking soda and kosher salt, then remove dirt with sponge. Rid mildew by soaking area with vinegar or lemon juice and scrub with a stiff brush. A University of Berkley study found that a person who spends 15 minutes cleaning scale off of a shower stall could inhale three times

the “acute one-hour exposure limit” of glycol-ether-containing products! Yikes!

Floor Cleaner: ½ cup vin-egar to a gallon of warm water and mop. For wood floors simply spray it onto a cloth and rubber band the cloth to your dry mop.

Oven Cleaning: Set the oven at its highest temperature for 15-20 minutes, making sure to turn on the vent fan. Then allow the oven to cool to a comfortable temperature and wipe with a damp sponge. Smear stubborn messes with a paste of baking soda and water, leaving over-night. The next morning, those baked-on spills will wipe away easily without any toxic fumes.

Even more recipes in next week’s ERCbeat! Have a question, or want to write your own ERC-beat? Contact the Environmental Resource Center at 208.726.4333 or [email protected].

ExAMining BOTH SidES OF THE COinBy JonatHan Kane

Matt Reidy, Wood River High School junior—car-rying a 4.2 grade point

average—has all the makings of a great lawyer. This is mainly because he has a propensity to analyze problems by examining both sides of the issue and then coming to a concrete consensus. As he so eloquently put it, “I like working toward a resolution with other people by investigat-ing each side.” Or, to put it in lawyers’ parlance, ‘Know the other side’s case better than you know your own.’

This can be seen in all of Reidy’s interests, whether in being junior class president, a member of the debate and chess clubs, or by being a part of the model United Nations. Begin-ning March 7, Reidy will be traveling to Berkeley, Calif., to compete in the largest U.N. stu-dent conference, with delegates coming from all 50 states. Wood River students will be participat-ing in committees representing the countries of Iran, Syria and China. “The area that I will be focused on will be giving Iran’s position on cyberterrorism and especially the use of drones.

Iran, not surpris-ingly is like most countries in that they want to be able to use drones but that they don’t want them used against their country. One of the reasons to argue against the use of drones is because, humani-tarianly, there is more collateral damage with drones than with other forms of air attacks. To prepare, I will compose a 3-5 page position paper so that I can speak with understanding at the tournament in front of the other 100 kids that will be a part of my committee. I find that I’m not really nervous about it, just excited.”

Reidy applies the same skills to debate, which he has been doing since his freshman year. “Debate fascinates me, espe-cially because you invest in each side and see which one is more ethical or sensible or what the end goal may be. At first I got to work with the upper class-men, which was a great learning experience, but it all really boils down to the same thing—re-searching and winning an argu-

ment and understand-ing and mastering all the strategic aspects to it.” Today, Reidy specializes in the Lin-coln/Douglas debate format where you focus on one specific question and argue both sides. “This year my favorite ques-

tion was whether rehabilitation should be favored over retribu-tion in the U.S. criminal justice system, because it really gave me the chance to examine all the different aspects of our system and how they can be more effec-tive.”

At Wood River Reidy excels as a student and has taken a number of Advance Placement classes, including literature and English, U.S. government, macro and micro economics, U.S. his-tory, and language and composi-tion. As class president and be-ing a part of the student union, Reidy hopes to “bring new ideas to the school and more clarity to what we are trying to achieve.” One thing you can be sure of is that this creative thinker will be bringing clarity to whatever he tackles.

Making a Purple SplashStory & PHoto By Karen BoSSicK

Several Sun Valley Nordic racers will have to make extra room in their suit-

cases as they return from the World Masters Competition in Asiago, Italy.

Charlie French will have to make room for three gold med-als, thanks to besting skiers from around the world in his age category.

Joanne Davis will be bringing home a silver and two bronze medals; Kelly Allison, three bronze medals; Norm Clark, a silver and two bronze; Jon Engen, two bronze; Del Pletcher, one bronze, and Muffy Ritz, two silvers.

As promised, 19 Vamps, who in themselves made up more than 10 percent of the Ameri-can delegation, seemed to make an impression on skiers from around the world at the races, which were marked by warm temperatures that made tracks glazy, threatened rain and made classic waxing very tough.

According to an email from Muffy Ritz, the women fought off off-the-charts anxiety before races with a myriad of soothers, including Valium and hot wine.

Paula Perry wanted to take pictures while she raced—Ritz told her flat out “NO!”

A few of the V2s—disqualified themselves in their first race, taking a wrong turn and skiing a 5 kilometer loop instead of the

15 K they were supposed to ski. But Ann Scales made up for it in a later race by skiing an extra loop that wasn’t even part of the course.

Ritz says they’re sick and tired of eating hotel fare of veal with tuna sauce or pork knuck-les, neck of beef and liver with anchovies. But they’ve thrived on the Italian cappuccinos. And they raised the ire of the Latvian delegation at the hotel with their late night partying.

But they provided a formi-dable section, lining the course and hooting and hollering as Joney Otteson, Karen Simpson and Charlie French skied the

30-kilometer classicThe Vamps’ new black and

purple racing suits were a hit—so much so that Pat Simpson, Charlie Frenchand Norm Clark even donned the Vamps suits for their 30-kilometer races.

“Now all the world knows about the Wamps, or sometimes it’s the Wumps,” said Ritz, not-ing that the rest of the world can’t pronounce the V in Vamps.

Some of the Vamps are headed to watch the World Champion-ships at Val de Fiemme; others, to Venice and Paris. And you’ll probably see a few straggling back into Ketchum any day now.

VamPS recently got ready for italy with a Ketchum town Square send-off.

Miss Victory in American Birkebeiner

By Karen BoSSicK

Sun Valley Nordic racer Nicole Deyong narrowly missed winning the 40th

Annual American Birkebeiner Saturday in Wisconsin with a time of 2 hours 29 minutes and 4 seconds.

A Minnesota woman bested other women with a time of 2 hours and 28 minutes for her second victory in three years.

Women were allowed to start ahead of the men this year to give a woman a chance to cross the finish line first.

Colin Rodgers and Patrick Johnson were right on the heels of the male winner. Johnson finished the 50K race in 2 hours 9 minutes and 18 seconds while Rodgers was just behind at 2:09:27.

An Italian man beat out the other men with a time of 2 hours and 9 minutes.

Six inches of new snow the day before left the hilly course soft and more difficult than usual as 10,000 skiers from 21 countries and 48 states took their place at the starting line.

Other locals participating in the Birkebeiner Skate included Omar Bermejo, EJ Harpham (who received a special invitation as a former Birkebeiner cham-pion), Eric Huus, Anne Jeffery, Alex Margolin, Jim Santa, Shell Seibel, Lucas Thomas, Alexa Turzian, and Elizabeth Young-man.

Joni Cashman and Michael Dunham raced in the Birkebein-er classic. tws

Taking Sight impaired Students to new Heights

Story & PHotoS By Karen BoSSicK

Bryant Walker couldn’t see the jagged outline of the Pioneer Mountains

through the window of the gondola. But he was all ears as Frank Rowland described the mountains to him.

“Some of the peaks are more than 11,000 feet tall,” Rowland said. “And right now we’re pass-ing over the second steepest slope on Baldy—Exhibition.”

Rowland was one of 14 Lions Club and Delta Gamma fra-ternal members who took 26 sight-impaired students up in Sun Valley’s gondola Friday af-ternoon for a picnic lunch on the deck of the Roundhouse.

Sun Valley provided free lift tickets and Atkinsons’ Market provided sack lunches as the kids made a stop in Sun Valley en route to the 4-H camp north of Ketchum where they planned to spend the weekend cross coun-try skiing, snowmobile riding and tubing.

“This is my second time on the gondola,” said Walker, who lives in Weiser. “It’s fun. It’s fun when you get to eat at the Round-house.”

The experience was a little in-timidating for some of the kids, some of whom attend the Idaho School for the Deaf and Blind in Gooding.

“I’m scared,” said Chelsea Belt, of Burley. “This is my first time to come to Sun Valley. It’s also my first time without my family.”

One girl screamed when she felt the stick on the sculpture of the bear on River Run Plaza, thinking it was a snake.

That prompted 13-year-old Trevon Rinesmith of Jerome to climb up on the bear, with Sally Horn’s help, to feel the bear’s rounded ears.

“I like coming here—it’s pretty fun,” he said. “Last time I went to camp and skied and tubed down the hill really fast. Once in awhile, the innertube would dump me on the snow. But it was still pretty fun.”

While the focus was on the kids, it appeared that some of the adult chaperones had their eyes opened by the whole experi-ence.

“What a beautiful experi-ence,” exclaimed Sue Rowland as she emerged from the gondola with Quike Lopez of Wendell. “I learned to experience the gon-dola ride through the sensations these guys notice.”

“The gondola feels like riding the subway,” smiled Lopez. “And you know you’re about to get off when it slows down.”

“I’m so excited. My ears are popping,” said Kaylee Park of

Wendell. She fingered her phone. “And they have good service for my cell phone here!”

TesTing for lazy eyeWood river Valley members of del-

ta gamma fraternal organization have been assisting the local lions club in testing elementary school students in Blaine and lincoln counties for lazy eye.

By the time they’re done, they will have screened about 2,000 children with the help of a new $8,000 vision scanner with a smiley face, said lions club member Walt cochran.

lazy eye—the most common cause of vision problems in children—hap-

pens when the brain ignores one eye, causing its vision to fade away. caught early enough, lazy eye can usually be corrected by wearing a patch on the strong eye, which forces the lazy eye to work, said Sue rowland.

left untreated, the child may need surgery to correct it. children who are treated after age 10 stand only to have a partial recovery.

about 70 delta gammas in the Wood river Valley started meeting together about three years ago and decided to take on the vision screen-ings as one of their projects, said Jena thrasher.

“We used to read to the blind in college,” said Sally Horn.

Frank rowland tells Bryant Walker that he is about to hear the doors on the gondola close automatically.

Sally Horn helps trevon rinesmith check out the bear on river run Plaza.

Birkie FeverBy JiM Santa

This past weekend I traveled to Wisconsin for the 40th annual Birkebeiner, the largest and most

prestigeous cross country ski race in North America and I beleive the 3rd largest in the world with some 10,000 skiers participating. The “Birkie” is truly an International event, part of the World-loppet series which attracts skiers from all over the world to compete on what is considered to be one of the toughest courses in this series. The race course starts at Telemark resort in Cable, WI. once a small downhill resort as-well. Shortly after the start comes the famous Powerline climb, a section of steep hills following a major powerline on a section of course wide enough to accomodate thousands of skiers. This climb has the effect of spreading out the crowd before narrowing and heading into the woods on the “Birkie Trail”. The course winds up and down over rolling hills for the next 45 km. before descending onto Lake Hay-ward. After crossing the lake the course heads right up Main street Hayward for a truly spectacular finish. The main street is lined with International flags and thousands of spectators to welcome the skiers home as they complete the very challenging course. I can tell you that this Main Street finish is an absolute thrill and probably what inspires most skiers to train for and return year after year for this spectacular event. This has become known in the nordic ski world simply as “Birkie Fever” and as the snow starts to fall in early winter the fever sets in again!

There is always a contingent of Wood River Valley skiers at the Birkie and we typically represent the valley pretty well. Here are a few results and I hope I didn’t miss anyone. Sun Valley Nordic team skier Patrick Johnson had an amazing 7th place finish and was the top Ameri-can in the field while Colin Rodgers had a very strong 14th place and Nicole Dey-oung posted a 5th overall in the womens race. Betsy Youngman, E.J. Harpham and Tulio Celano all posted age group wins. The author had a personal best and more importantly had alot of fun, while also coaching his close friends Marcia her dog Milo to their first Barkie Birkie finish, this was truly LOL!! Check out more at http://www.birkie.com/ and look for Barkie Birkie video on the Stur-tevant’s Facebook page soon.

James Hunter, Soul Man

By Jamie canField, Program director For KSKi 103.7 Fm

True soul music is a rare com-

modity these days. Artists like Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Bobby “Blue” Bland and others laid the groundwork in the genre that is nearly impossible to surpass, but British soul man James Hunter is trying to carry the torch. On his first album in over five years, Minute By Minute, Hunter worked with Gabriel Roth (a.k.a. Bosco Mann), co-founder of Daptone Records and producer and engineer for Sharon Jones, The Heavy, and Amy Winehouse (among countless other indie soul-funk groups), to come up with his most cohesive collection of songs so far. Hunter’s voice is raspier than on his last album, The Hard Way, but it comes from years of being on the road doing his soul thing with his band, The James Hunter Six. Like any good soul man, he’s get the requisite horn section, B-3 organ, and upright bass player, but this is no mere retro re-hash-ing of a bygone era; Hunter puts his own personal, modern spin on his compositions to avoid any the trappings of sounding like he’s mimicking his soul music forefathers. Yes, there’s a hint of James Brown on “Drop On Me,” a nuance of Sam Cooke on “Gold Mine” and “If I Only Knew,” but he sings the songs like he owns them, and that’s a sign of a great soul singer; Hunter makes every song his and his alone. Minute By Minute is an album that takes modern soul music to the next level, one song at a time.

movie review

AdMiSSiOn PriCE THEFTBy JonatHan Kane

How come so many of these Hol-

lywood formulaic comedies probably sound better in the pitch than they end up in the final product? Such is the case with the woeful new comedy Identity Thief. Borrowing heavily from other, much better films and even some classics, the movie turned out to be a mish-mash of a lot more misses than hits. I guess this could be a little disappointing because of the film’s two leads—Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy. I’ve al-ways been a big fan of Bateman and here he tries his darndest to make the weak script work but the odds are just too great

against him. It’s a shame because he continues to exhibit great co-medic chops. Then it’s on to the other lead—Melissa McCarthy. I guess you could say I’m just not a fan, which certainly hurts in the enjoy-ment of a film that she carries. In Bridesmaids I was more repulsed than captivated by her star-mak-ing turn. Here we have a lot more

of the same as she approaches comedy with little of what you might call subtlety.

Anyway - on to the lame plot. Bateman is a struggling execu-tive at a financial institution and McCarthy plays a con artist that easily steals his identity over the phone. You see, Bateman’s first

name is Sandy and that, as the movie pounds home, is a name that can work for either sex. Af-ter destroying his life, he heads from Denver to Florida to re-trieve her and bring her home to his boss to prove his innocence. Of course this thrusts us into the cliché road movie because, since their IDs are identical, they have to drive rather than fly (pretty clever). Along the way the two are chased by assassins, which make absolutely no sense at all. Eventually, the story wraps up neatly with a tearful McCarthy telling her true story. At this point, who really cares? Buyers beware and proceed with caution!

But his mother made him practice the piano and, though he did so grudgingly, it came easy for him. So easy that when football team members persuad-ed him to audition for a piano contest at Hotel del Coronado, the 14-year-old easily bested 150 other competitors.

His reward? An opportunity to play on Liberace’s TV show.

“I didn’t know who he was—I was a kid wanting to play base-ball. But he came out in a fur coat—there was a candelabra on the piano—and he did a duet with me,” recalled Fos. “He was showy, impressive. He embel-lished everything with his hands way up in the air.”

Fos made his concert debut with the San Diego Symphony at 17 and won a scholarship to the Julliard School of Music in New York after studying music at San Diego State College.

After a painful gig with a Las Vegas act that got cancelled when the bandleader got into a fight, Fos settled into playing luxurious hotels like the King

James in Beverly Hills.He was entertainment

director at the Westgate Hotel in San Diego in 1979 when owner Earl Holding fingered him to headline the music at Sun Valley Resort, which Holding had acquired two years earlier.

Fos didn’t think much of Sun Valley’s winters at first but eventually learned to ski well enough to handle Seattle Ridge, one of the easier portions of Bald Mountain.

He fell in love with Sun Valley’s summers.

He became a fixture playing for Sun Valley’s outdoor ice shows. And he was a frequent guest soloist with the Sun Valley Summer Symphony in its early days. He dressed up as a cow for the symphony’s “Carnival of Animals” benefit and Captain Hook for a “Salute to Holly-wood” benefit—losing his hook, of course, when it came time to play the piano.

One of his favorites was the

benefit with a Camelot theme, in which there were horses and chickens running around as in medieval times and people dressed like lords and ladies.

“I’m so proud of the symphony. Now the symphony has 115 great musicians and guest artists like Itzhak Perlman. And it’s all free. I tell people on the cruise ship about it and they can’t believe it.”‘

Fos says he has seen it all in

his years of enter-taining.

He was playing on his “Sundown” TV show in San Diego when Russ Tamblyn jumped up on the piano and started dancing a number from the just-re-leased “West Side Story.”

In Sun Valley, he performed in the televised “Disney’s Fantasy on Ice” where a touch of magic made Olympic gold medalist Nancy

Kerrigan appear to skate across the top of his concert grand.

It was during a Cinco de Mayo party at a California nightclub that the woman who would become Joe’s wife saw him. Smit-ten by the way he played, she followed her heart to Sun Valley, marrying him 11 months later.

“I could feel his love coming out through the piano escaping into the room,” said Patricia. “I

felt compelled to give that love back for how happy he made me.”

Every fall and spring Joe and Patricia Fos head for Crystal Cruises where Joe performs on a crystal-clear, 6-foot grand acrylic piano that the ship’s 1,200 pas-sengers can see through. There’s no need to pack any sheet music since he plays by ear. And with his gift for improvisation, he makes up his own arrangements as he plays, his fingers trickling over the piano keys like water cascading over a cliff.

Come winter and summer he’s back in the Duchin Room, playing selections from “Mamma Mia” and “Phantom of the Opera,” as well as jazz and light classical arrangements with fellow trio members Bob Closser and Brad Hershey from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays.

“He still plays with all his heart,” said Patricia, looking adoringly at her husband. “Even after all these years.”

Chiropractic: not Just for Back PainBy dr. maria maricicH

Have you ever thought of going to a chiropractor for digestive problems,

allergies or infertility?Most people think of back

pain, neck pain or headaches when they hear the word chiro-practor. But, can chiropractic help with other health problems, too? Studies show that it can.

If you suffer from any unre-solved health concern, it is worth talking to a chiropractor.

One of the basic principles of chiropractic is that the nervous system controls every function of the human body. Everything that happens in the body begins as an impulse in the brain, then the brain relays the message through the spinal cord, and then out spinal nerves to every part of your body.

So, if a vertebra were to move out of position and start to put pressure on the spinal nerve, what would happen? The most common answer I get from patients is that they would begin to feel pain. While this may be true, only 10 percent of nerve fibers are related to pain. The other 90 percent of nerve fibers tell your body how to function. Therefore, isn’t it possible that a spinal misalignment could not only cause pain, but could also keep your body from functioning

properly?Just to clarify: As a chiroprac-

tor I don’t claim to be able to treat digestive issues, asthma or other organic disorders. I treat misalignments of the spine—what chiropractors commonly refer to as subluxations. I believe that subluxations can cause more than neck and back pain. Any type of stress can cause subluxations. It could be physi-cal, like a fall or car accident; it could be emotional; or even chemical. Often subluxations start at birth.

Following is an example of how nerve interference can cause a health problem: Nerves that begin in your upper neck extend to your head and sinuses. This is an area I often find subluxated or misaligned when a person re-ports sinus issues or headaches. After a few light-touch adjust-ments, patients will commonly report that they have noticed that their sinuses have started to clear up. Once again, I am not treating their sinuses, but ad-dressing the structural issues in their spine that may have caused the sinus problems.

The same principle holds true for asthma and digestive issues. The same nerves that begin be-tween your shoulder blades wrap around your ribs and go to your lungs. This is a common area that chiropractors find sublux-

ations in patients with asthma. Farther down your spine, nerves branch out to your entire diges-tive tract. Subluxations in this area can cause issues such as heartburn and constipation.

So, does chiropractic help with neck and back pain? Of course, but those are not the only is-sues a chiropractor can help with. Can a chiropractor help you with your digestive issues or any other unresolved health problem? Possibly, if the problem is being caused from a spinal misalignment; however, only a chiropractor is trained to detect if your spine is the cause of your issues.

David Lange and Michael Gray were among the members of Pearl Django who enter-tained a sell-out crowd in Thursday night’s

Sun Valley Artist Series. “We like to present music we think has a chance of being tomorrow’s classical music,” said Sun Valley Artist Series’ Steve Gannon of the crossover concert, which was enthusiastically received. Those who attended Susan Spelius Dunning’s question-and-answer session with the artists prior to the concert got to learn all about the 45-pound, 140-button accor-dion. The instrument itself was developed when a German musician attached bellows, like those on a bagpipe, to a keyboard in 1822.

St. thomas Playhouse will stage a free performance of its touring the-ater show, “Stone Soup,” at 10 a.m. Saturday at Ketchum’s community library. the show will repeat at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, march 6, and 2 p.m. Saturday, march 9, at the Hailey Public library. the story revolves around a peddler who appears in a village wracked by drought and fam-ine. the peddler produces an empty cooking pot, which he fills with water. He drops a huge stone in it and places it over a fire. then he con-vinces each of the villagers to stop their hoarding and contribute a few carrots and other ingredients. Before long, they have a nourishing meal that none of them could have produced individually but that all can now enjoy. courteSy PHoto

Stone Soup tour Beginsfrom margot’s

By margot Van Horn

I haven’t made this dish in ages and it was a very popular one served at home

and in restaurants in the ’50s. However, then it was made with veal, which was so much more economically priced than it is presently. So, pork once more it is and nice that it’s still so well priced. My dish turned out deli-cious and I deem that you can serve it either for your family or guests. And, by the way, I served this with noodles topped with diced tomatoes, Parmesan and black pitted olives and sided it with a lovely romaine salad.

Pork ParmigianaMakes 4 servings

ingredienTs:Four 1/4-inch-thick to

1/2-inch-thick boneless pork chops—center cut about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 lb.

1/4 C. olive oilFlour that has been spiced lib-

erally with salt and pepper—for dredging

Plain breadcrumbs for dredg-ing (which, if you wish, you can add in some shredded Parmesan)

2 eggs, beatenSalt and pepper to taste1/2 C. vermouth or white wineJuice of 1 lemonTomato sauce or chopped

tomatoes—up to you how much you want to use

Sliced mozzarella or shredded Italian cheese mixture

Minced fresh parsley leaves for garnish

One lemon cut in quarters

direcTions:Preheat the oven to 450 de-

grees F.The chops should be about

1/4-inch thick; if they are not, and mine were 1/2-inch thick, do the following: Put the chops between 2 sheets of Saran wrap or wax paper and roll them gently with a rolling pin till they are approximately the correct thickness. This I actually think made them extra-tender to eat, so I would do this even if they are about 1/4-inch thick. You can also pound them gently.

Beside your burner, place one

platter with the flour, the next one with the beaten eggs and the third (nearest the burner) with the breadcrumbs.

Heat the oil in a very large skillet over medium heat—you don’t want to crowd the chops.

When the oil is hot (a pinch of flour will sizzle), dredge the chops, one at a time, in the flour and then the egg dip and then the breadcrumbs, and place in the skillet to brown. Even though this is pork, undercook them a bit because they’ll con-tinue cooking in the oven. So, the browning process shouldn’t take more than 2 minutes per side. Cook the chops over high heat enough to make the oil bubble. As well at this point, have an oiled ovenproof dish next to your burner.

As soon as your chop is brown on one side (they brown fast, so watch closely), then cook the other side. When the chops are done, place them in your oven-proof dish without overlapping.

Empty your skillet from the remaining oil and return it to the burner. Add the wine/ver-mouth over medium-high heat and cook, stirring until the wine is just about evaporated. Add the lemon juice and stir.

Top each chop with the lemon/wine mixture (there won’t be much), then top with as much tomato sauce or diced tomatoes as you wish (usually it’s just a spoonful or two); and, lastly, top with either a thin slice of moz-zarella or as much shredded Ital-ian cheese mixture as you wish.

Place the baking dish in the oven until the cheese is melted—about 5 to 10 minutes.

Serve immediately garnished with some chopped parsley on the top and a lemon wedge on the side.

Here Are Some green Home TipsThere is no denying that

in today’s society, there is more awareness and

interest in being green and, as such, people are becoming more interested in using green build-ing techniques. Key components include using energy-efficiency techniques, sustainable building materials and energy-efficient appliances in homes that help to lower cost and environmental impact.

Tip 1: Heating and cooling interior spaces can account for as much as 50 percent of a home’s energy use. Since that percentage is so high, insula-tion becomes an increasingly important component in having a green home. Poor insulation equals wasted energy and higher energy costs. Some things that can be done to improve energy efficiency include using spray insulation to seal air gaps in walls and attics. Building exte-rior walls with 6-inch-wide studs instead of the traditional 4-inch studs will also help the cause. The use of caulk to seal all gaps around doors and windows is a must. And, of course, use Energy Star-rated low-energy windows.

Tip 2: One way to have a more energy-efficient design is to keep the sun and wind in mind when

designing your home. Using overhangs to help shade win-dows in summer while allowing sun to warm the house in winter are smart and money-saving ideas. Planting shade trees near the south-facing sides of build-ings can also help. A well-placed skylight or two can help by increasing natural light in the home and allowing you to keep those light switches in the off position.

Tip 3: If you are really serious about your home being green, the use of sustainable materi-als is a must. One way to really do your part is to use reclaimed lumber. Reclaimed lumber is lumber that has previously been used to build houses and facto-ries. It is thought that reclaimed lumber is stronger than today’s lumber due to the fact much of it was harvested from virgin forests. You may have to put some serious time into finding reclaimed lumber as its use is very popular in certain parts of the country. The bonus is you will probably spend less money in the end using reclaimed wood. Being green doesn’t stop with using recycled wood. Recycled plastics and composites also are abundantly available. Many times these are long-lasting

products that don’t need to be replaced as often, thereby saving you money.

Tip 4: Unless you haven’t looked at an appliance in 20 years, you are familiar with Energy Star appliances. They are money-saving appliances deemed to be energy efficient by the EPA (Environmental Protec-tion Agency). They are easily identified by those familiar blue Energy Star labels. Choosing to use Energy Star appliances for heating, cooling, refrigera-tion, cooking and lighting will help ease the burden on energy resources. You might even con-sider a tankless water heater, which uses less energy as you don’t have to keep a large tank of water hot for use. Remember that these green tips are not only useful in building new homes, but also are things to keep in mind when remodeling any room in your house. The benefits are saving valuable natural resourc-es and keeping more money in your pocket.

were nominated for Oscars. But ‘Weapon of War’ explores how men can be such animals and do the things they do to women. ‘Words of Witness’ follows a gutsy female journalist covering Arab Spring—we’re there with her when they break into her office. And Nisha Pahuja’s film is very powerful. In fact, she has spent so much time in India that she’ll be able to speak to issues beyond her film, such as the incident in December where at-tackers assaulted and murdered a woman on a bus, provoking massive uprisings about violence toward women in India.”

Amy Ziering, reached a few days before the Academy Awards aired, said she had little hope that her film, “The Invisible War,” had any chance of winning despite its focus on sexual as-saults in the U.S. military.

Her reward, she said, is in the impact the film has had.

The Air Force Chief of Staff had the Air Force’s wing com-manders watch the film with him. The House Armed Services Committee has held hearings on the investigation into Lackland Air Force Base where a staff ser-geant was convicted of rape. The military has begun using the film for sexual-assault training. And Sen. Richard Blumenthal told Sen. Chuck Hagel that he expected him to address perpe-trators and victims if confirmed to succeed Leon Panetta as Secretary of Defense.

“I’m happily surprised by the speed with which it has gotten the effective response of the Pen-tagon,” said Ziering. “Sen. Bar-bara Boxer even got an amend-ment passed banning anyone convicted of felony sexual assault from serving in the military. I’m so gratified it hit a chord.”

“There are very few films that actually change things,” said Goldwyn. “This is one of them.”

Goldwyn almost turned down the film when Ziering asked to include it in the Family of Woman Film Festival six months ago.

“My immediate response was that we don’t show films about America, since UNFPA doesn’t operate in developed countries. Her response to that was that the women in her film had duties that included protect-ing women in Third World coun-tries from sexual violence—and, ironically, they were the victims

of such violence themselves from their own troops,” said Goldwyn. “That really brought things full circle for me and I knew I had to have the film. Our issues aren’t just things that are happening to women in some far off places—American women face the same issues.”

The lineuPHere’s the lineup for the Sixth

Annual Family of Woman Film Festival being held at the Sun Valley Opera House in Sun Val-ley:

6 p.m. Friday--“The Invisible War,” which explores sexual as-sault toward U.S. servicewomen by their fellow servicemen. Film-maker Amy Ziering and Trina McDonald, one of the subjects in the film, will discuss the film. Part of the proceeds from the screening will be donated to Higher Ground, a Sun Valley organization that offers thera-peutic recreational opportunities to servicewomen, including those with military sexual trauma (MST).

3 p.m. Saturday—“Weapon of War,” which concentrates on Democratic Republic of Congo soldiers who commit rape and other acts of terrorism as a tool of war. There are some remark-able scenes, including that of a man who suffers from post-trau-matic stress disorder because he is haunted by what he has done. Kate Gilmore, deputy director of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), will answer questions following the film.

7 p.m. Saturday—“The World Before Her,” an Indian documentary contrasting women vying to become Miss India with those attending a Hindu funda-mentalist boot camp. Filmmaker Nisha Pahuja will present the film.

3 p.m. Sunday—”Words of Witness,” an Egyptian documen-tary about a journalist follow-ing the course of change in her country.

7 p.m. Sunday—“War Witch,” the premiere of a drama that has been hailed for its realistic portrayal of a young girl in the Democratic Republic of Congo as her village is raided by rebels, her family murdered and she is kidnapped to become a child soldier. The Congolese actress in the movie, which opens March 8 in Los Angeles, was living on the streets—now

she has garnered best actress awards at the Sundance, Berlin and Tribeca film festivals for her performance.

TICKETS are $15 each or $60 for all the films, available at Chapter One Bookstore and Iconoclast Books in Ketchum. Tickets are also available at the Opera House the day of the screenings. A $250 ticket into the festival’s Founder’s Circle includes priority seating at all films and an invitation to a reception with filmmakers. Information: familyofwoman-filmfestival.org

relaTed arT eXhibiTs The Sun Valley Center for the

Arts will hold an opening recep-tion for its new exhibit “Home Front” from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Friday so that people can peruse the exhibit in time to see the screening of “The Invisible War.”

The exhibit, which features vintage World War I and II post-ers and work by six contempo-rary artists, examines what the term “home front” means today and what it’s like for a soldier to return home.

Ketchum photographer Stephanie Freid-Perenchio is one of the artists whose work is featured. She has photographed Navy SEAL families at depar-tures, during deployments and at homecomings.

Perenchio, who co-chairs the Family of Woman Film Festival, will also present an exhibition, “Homefront USA,” at her SFP Studio in Ketchum’s Walnut Avenue Mall through May 30. The photographs capture life in military families where some children grow up with a parent spending more time at war than at home.

free lecTureKate Gilmore, deputy director

of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), will kick off the film festival with a free lecture on “Women and War”—the theme of this year’s Family of Woman Film Festival—at 6 p.m. Thursday at The Community Library in Ketchum.

Gilmore, an Australian, is also assistant secretary-general of the United Nations.

Dr. Babatunde Osotimehin, executive director of UNFPA, will be returning to inaugurate the festival.

Filmmaker nisha Pahuja said that the Hindu fundamentalist women she profiled in her film, “the World Before Her,” were more engaging than those vying to become miss india because of their refusal to buy into a Western, materialist notion of modernity. “the beauty queens, as lovely as they were, aren’t questioning the country around them in the same way,” Pahuja added.

Patient PrivacyThe walls at my vet's office

are very thin. When you're inthe waiting room, you can hearthe conversation in the adjoin-ing patient's room.

On my last visit while my catand I were waiting, I could hearthe doctor talking with a petowner. It seemed the doctor hadprescribed some pills for theman's dog, but the dog wouldconsistently spit them out.

"I've tried putting them inpeanut butter, a piece of steakand even smothering them incream cheese," the ownerexplained. "But the dog justwouldn't eat them. I'm guessingthese pills must taste reallybad."

"They probably do," I heardthe doctor reply, "They're meantto be suppositories."

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,A few years ago I was a verystressed out guy. My job as astockbroker had put me on theedge. To get it under control Istarted taking anxiety medica-tion, signed up for a yoga classand got myself a dog.Everything I read said having apet would help reduce my bloodpressure. It was beginning towork, so to continue reducingstress I even quit my job.Finally, I have my anxietyunder control except forone thing, my pet dog. Ihad found this adorablemutt from an ad in thenewspaper and I thought hewas perfect at the time. Nowa year later, he has more anxietythan I had and is my new sourceof stress. He chews everythingin sight including the furniture. Ibarely have a shoe left that hehasn't gotten his teeth into. I'vetried everything to stop himshort of giving him my anxietymedication! Do you guys haveany suggestions that can helpthis cute classified pup?

• • •Carry: From the sound of it,

maybe your dog needs a differentday job as well. His current occu-pation of sitting home all day seemsto be a little stressful.

Cash: Believe it or not, there'sa lot of truth in that. Your dog'sdestructive chewing is most likelydue to a lack of exercise. Havingbeen in a stressful job, you canimagine how confining it wouldfeel to be stuck in a cubicle for 24hours every day. It could causeenough frustration to make youbegin chewing the furniture aswell.

Carry: The first thing you needto do in order to change your dog'sbehavior is to make sure he getsplenty of exercise. This involvesmore than just letting him outsideor going to a dog park. Youshould be walking him at least 45minutes per day to help release his

energy. Consider making thewalks longer if he is a very activebreed.

Cash: During your walksestablish yourself as the leader.That means that your dog shouldalways be behind or beside youand not pulling you down thestreet. Becoming the authorityfigure on your walks will go along way to controlling your dog'sbehavior in the house.

Carry: The good news is thatwith a little persistence, you andyour dog can live a stress free lifetogether. However, maybe itwould be better if our animalswent to work and we stayed homeall day!

Mixed MuttsWhile some individuals enjoy

owning a specific breed of dog, avast majority simply desire thecompanionship of an animal. Inthose cases, rescuing a mixedbreed dog, or "mutt' as they arecommonly known, can make agreat choice. While the lineage ofthe animal may not be known,dogs of a mixed descent typicallylive healthier lives than their pure-bred counterparts. Their diverseset of genetics helps to decreasetheir chance of health problemsthat may be found in a specificbreed.Trick and Treat

While most of us are happy ifwe can teach our dog to sit andstay, some owners go above andbeyond the basic training. TakeAugie, a golden retriever fromDallas, Texas. He has theGuinness Book of World Recordsfor holding five tennis balls in hismouth at one time. There is alsoStriker, a border collie fromQuebec City, Canada. This dogcan roll down a car window (non-electric) in just over 11 secondswith his paws. Imagine what hecould do if he had a driver'slicense.
