Cheerleaders need your help

By KAREN BOSSICK

The leis may be off—unless you help.Wood River High School cheerleaders have fallen short in their fundraising

efforts to go to the Pro Bowl in Hawaii where they’ve been invited to perform in January.

And they’re willing to do just about any-thing—anything legal, that is—to get there.

As a result, they’re conducting a last-min-ute campaign push now through Nov. 10.

They’ll donate an hour of their time to the charity of your choice for every $10 donated.

Cheerleading Coach Amanda Ornelas said it costs $1,150 per person plus airfare to go and so far the 11-member squad has raised about $4,500 after a number of fundraising events, including one in which they donated a portion of the money they raised to cancer research.

“So, as you can see, we are very short on cash,” said Ornelas.

The cheerleaders qualified to join other cheerleading squads during halftime at the football tame by achieving perfect scores on three different evaluations during cheerlead-ing camp this summer. Two other Idaho squads from Boise and Capital high Schools also qualified.

“The kids feel like to go would be a huge asset as far as building the program at the high school. And it’s a chance of a lifetime for them,” said Ornelas.

Cheerleaders are Rosie Paredes, Shannice Hall, Paty Orozco, Adriana Gomez, Karina Rangel, Alejandro Hurtado, Maricruz Balta-zar, Crystal Rodriguez, and Melissa Molina.

To help, call Ornelas at 309-2929 or email her at amanda.ornelas@yahoo.com

Or send a check to Wood River Cheerlead-ers care of Wood River High School, 1250 Fox Acres Drive, Hailey, Id 83333. Be sure to note the charity of your choice. twp

Go wild about thisYou may own the

land your home sits on. But do

you own the ground underneath that land?

That has become a point of controversy for some Coloradans who have found en-ergy companies drilling for natural gas outside their front door.

The practice—documented in Debra Anderson’s film “Split Estate”—has left aspen-dotted meadows strewn with abandoned

homes and benzene-contaminated waters

that can be set afire with a match. And the fracturing has left homeowners gravely ill—poi-soned, they say,

by a drilling boom hundreds of miles away from the offshore disaster in the Gulf.

This is something that is already hap-

pening in neighboring states and it could happen in Idaho, said Kellie Rey, an Ameri-

Corps volunteer for the Environ-mental Resource Center. That’s why Rey hopes people will turn out to see the movie at Friday’s 8th Annual Wild and Scenic Environmental Film Festival.

The festival starts at 6 p.m. at the nexStage Theatre, 120 S. Main St., Ketchum.

“I’m super excited because ‘Split Estate’ recently won an Emmy,” said Rey, who organized the festival. “I hope it and the other films we’ll be showing will inspire people to make change locally.”

The evening of films is similar to the Banff Mountain Film

WRHS drama students focus on

reality TVBy KAREN BOSSICK

Reality TV takes the stage this week when the Wood River High School Drama

Department presents “Surviving Reality.”

The performance—at 7 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday—revolves around a TV station owner who decides he can make millions of dollars by jumping on the reality TV bandwagon.

He challenges a haughty Park Avenue, N.Y., family to spend a month with a bunch of hillbillies in a Hog Holler, Ky., cabin. But he intends to make the challeng-es so impossible that they can’t win the million-dollar prize that he doesn’t have.

“It’s a reality show I’d love to see on TV because it’s hilarious,” said Jessica Lamprecht. Lampre-cht plays a crochety 94-year-old former star who has been well-preserved by hourly Botox injec-tions. TV station owner Harold Fastbuck has hired her as emcee, hoping to get star power at a bargain basement price.

“It’s very fun—I get to scream and be mean to people,” Lam-precht said. “And I think the audience will like it because it’s full of funny moments.”

Drama Director Karl Nord-strom, who directed his students in “Pride and Prejudice” last year, said this time he wanted

something that was designed especially for high school stu-dents and lighthearted without being corny. The play, written by Daniel O’Donnell, will feature a lot of the school’s veteran actors, as well as some newcomers.

It will also give students the chance to portray vastly differ-ent characters—from hillbillies to the stereotypical rich.

“It’s not hard to get into my character of a mountain woman because I hunt and fish in real life,” said Devan Atkinson. “The play—it’s like what’s on TV be-cause it’s awkward and stupid.”

That said, the play does have its redeeming qualities, said Lamprecht: “In the end, the family that’s lost its way with one another find their way to becoming close family again. So, it’s really pretty neat.”

The life of Thespian, JarrettCommunity School

senior Kyla Jarrett has

theater in her genes. Her father, Jim Jarrett, is an actor and act-ing teacher who has traveled the world, including the Wood River Valley, performing his one-man show about the artist Vincent Van Gogh, with his daughter Kyla in tow for most of it. At the tender age of two, he parted the curtains before a show and let Kyla look at the audience. Her response— “I like it” —and a passion for the theater was born.

Born in L.A., her parents moved to the Big Island of Ha-waii when she was three months old. “They didn’t want to raise me in a city and it seemed like a romantic idea to move to some-where remote and beautiful. Although this sounds like this Valley, Jarrett says the town they moved to was considerably smaller than here. “There are only a couple of hundred people there and the town is controlled by one family. They took us in as their own and even gave me my own name, which is a big honor. I still go there for two weeks every year when my dad brings a group of students for a workshop. The Big Island is the most re-mote of the islands and is so lush and green. I love the beaches and being warm and I really love the rain,” she said.

She moved to the Wood River Valley with her parents after her dad had a very successful run with the show Vincent at The Liberty Theatre. “I love it here, but sometimes I don’t appreciate it enough. I’ve really developed a love for the outdoors through the trips we take with The Commu-

nity School. I also love that it’s quiet here

and it can be nice that you know ev-eryone, but there is also a downside. Sometimes you feel like you’re in a fishbowl and

when you go to the store everyone knows

what’s going on for you in school and in your life. I

want to live in a city like Lon-don, but someday I could end up in a small town.”

After attending Hemingway Elementary, she started The Community School in sixth grade. “I absolutely love it there and love to talk about it. I love that I call my teachers by their first names and all the camping trips that we take. But I also love the excellent academics. My favorite part is that my class only has 26 people. It’s like hav-ing 25 brothers and sisters.” She is currently carrying a 3.9 GPA and has her sights set on attend-ing Yale, Princeton or Columbia next year, with a hope to attend Oxford in England for graduate work. Her focus is on languages and she hopes to study the clas-sics in college.

But there is always her pas-sion for theater. “My dad was trained by the legendary acting teacher Sanford Meisner and he continues on his teachings at schools in Los Angeles and San Francisco. I’m not officially trained, but I’ve sat through ev-ery class and when I was a child, I would sit in his lap through class. I feel safe on the stage and it’s comforting to me because I’ve always been there. The basis of the Meisner Technique is to use your imagination and, since I was an only child, I had plenty of time to imagine. I remember

as a child I would talk to my dad as Vincent”. Since the age of seven, she has teched her father’s complicated show and, as a result, has been fortunate enough to travel the world. At the age of 14, that brought her to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, perhaps the most celebrated the-ater festival in the world. There her dad was nominated for the best solo performance against stiff competition. The last three years she has had the amazing opportunity to be an “angel” at the festival, traveling on her own and pretty much being an exalted go-fer. “I’ve met the most eclectic people and it has been the greatest experience of my life.”

At The Community School, she has been in fourteen productions and directs the middle school’s evenings of one-act plays. On Nov. 4 she will play one of the leads in the school’s fall produc-tion of A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Forum. “I love performing. There is just some-thing so exciting about being live in front of an audience.” It seems likely that we’ll be seeing her on stage a lot in the future.

Water Ceremony

Photos and Story By KAREN BOSSICK

Dozens of children and their parents spent a drizzly Saturday afternoon at the Sun Valley Center for the Arts

molding clay fish embedded with mountain iris and wild rose seeds.

They will release those fish and “ice books”—books with a “text” of embedded ripar-

ian seeds—into the Big Wood River this com-ing Saturday in a ceremony that will mark the conclusion of The Center’s multidisciplinary exhibition, “Water”.

The ceremony will include a brief talk by artist Basia Irland, who established the Arts and Ecology Program at the University of New Mexico. Irland visited the Wood River Valley in July and created a sculpture inspired by her visit. The sculpture is on view at The Center in Ketchum.

The ceremony starts at 10 a.m. at The Cen-ter in Ketchum. Juice, coffee and pastries will be served. twp

Ocean splashes on Bellevue students

“Shrimp!” A couple hun-dred fists belonging to Bellevue Elementary

School students went up in the air as the students sang out the word.

“Benihana throws ’em up in the air for you,” retorted musician Sam Lardner.

“Shrimp!”“Sushi lovers go

‘yum’ when their shrimp are raw.”

“Shrimp!”“Me, I gotta tell you

‘bout a scary thing that I saw…”

The ocean blue may be 500 miles from landlocked Bellevue. But it was front and center for Bellevue Elementary School students last week, thanks to the Sun Valley Center for the Arts, which brought flamenco fu-sion artist Sam Lardner to 1,200 students at Bellevue, Woodside and Hemingway schools.

Lardner gave voice to the oceans as he sang about how shrimp fishing practices in places like Thailand were turn-ing the ocean into “a dead lagoon where even a rat won’t go.”

The kids had been singing Lardner’s songs for a month, thanks to CDs provided each student by The Ocean Founda-tion in Washington, D.C.

“Some parts of the world catch shrimp in a way that’s not good for the environment, while other places do it in a way that’s good for the environment. So when you go to the supermarket, you have to tell your parents, ‘Do

you know where this came from?’ If they got it from the Gulf of Mexico, that’s pretty good,” Lardner told the students.

Lardner, who lives in Spain, was

brought by The Center as part of its multidisciplinary project exploring

water issues. He said he conceived of the tour

as something constructive to do with the free time musicians often have while on tour.

“A friend of mine works for The Ocean Foundation and she wanted a way to teach kids and their parents about what’s happening with our oceans. If we talked, kids would listen. But songs stay with you,” said Lardner, a former teacher at the Hotchkiss School in Connecticut.

Lardner wrote 14 songs rap-ping about sharks and wailing about such things as exploding oil rigs, overfishing and the acidification of the ocean. And he put them on his “Oceans Are Talking” CD.

“The oceans are more unique than we think and they’re not getting enough attention. We think of the ocean as a giant lung that can absorb all the pollution. But carbon dioxide is hurting the ocean just as

it’s hurting other parts of our world,” he said. “I’m trying to get the kids to understand that even what you do here—with these in-credibly clean streams you have here—matters to the oceans.”

Lardner and his Barcelona band—Spanish pop star Pedro Hermosilla and keyboard vir-tuoso Marcel Botella—played Lardner’s “Blue Planet” for a near-sell-out crowd at the nex-Stage Theatre Friday evening. They used youngsters in the audience as their backup singers.

Hailey resident Geegee Lowe, who happens to be Lardner’s aunt, said she was excited about the way the kids had warmed up to Lardner’s message.

“The other day my grand-daughter—Amari Caballero—jumped off the school bus singing one of his songs,” she said. “Sam’s recorded a video featur-ing kids singing the song from around the world—from San Francisco to places like Spain, Russia and China. And now it’s come full circle as we’ve got kids singing it here.”

CominG up:Crystal Monee Hall, who performed

with the Tony Award-winning musi-cal “Rent,” will combine the sounds of folk, gospel, jazz and blues at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 19, at the Sun Valley Opera House. Tickets are $20 for Sun Valley Center for the Arts members and $30 for non-members, available at 208-726-9491.

“What you have here is incredibly yummy clean water full of trout. Where does this end up? The ocean,” Sam Lardner told Bellevue Elementary School stu-dents. PHOTOS: KAREN BOSSICK/TWP

Alexia Reyes and Leah Santa Cruz were among the youngsters who tuned into Sam Lardner’s pitch for the oceans.

Learning and using Healing TouchKathleen Blue

was suffer-ing sinus

trouble when she showed up at St. Luke’s Wood River Medi-cal Center. But instead of reaching for an antihistamine, the Sun Valley woman closed her eyes as Claudia Lopez waved her hands over Blue’s head and around her face.

Within a few minutes, Blue felt warmth as her sinuses cleared up.

St. Luke’s Wood River Medical Center has a new substitute for aspirin—58 volunteers who dispense Healing Touch.

Healing Touch is an energy-based approach to health and healing in which practitioners wave their hands above the pa-tient or lay them on the patient to increase the energy flow to alleviate pain and promote self-healing.

The hospital introduced it last year as part of new Integrative Therapies Program designed to complement traditional medi-cine. On Friday and Saturday the hospital will hold a Level 1 training class for those wishing to learn Healing touch. (It plans to hold Level 2, 3 and 4 work-shops next year).

And it is starting a new research project in its surgical department to determine to what extent Healing Touch is benefit-ting its patients.

Reports from hospitals around the world purport faster mobil-ity among those receiving knee transplants, speedier recovery from open-heart surgeries and shorter hospital stays among those submitting to Healing Touch.

“Our patients have reported significant benefits,” said Mary Kay Foley, who oversees the hospital’s Integrative Thera-pies program, which includes acupuncture, meditation and the Care Channel--a closed-circuit TV station which offers guided imagery images and instrumen-tal music for its patients.

“Patients have noted a 50 percent decrease in pain and 70 percent decrease in anxiety after treatments. It was encouraging enough that we wanted to do a more formal study. Even just a breath of relaxation helps heal-ing overall.”

Those who have learned Heal-ing Touch have had a variety of

reasons for doing so. Mary Mc-Gonigal wanted to apply hers at Blaine Manor nursing home and Linda Peterson at the Animal Shelter. Karen Oswalt wanted to use it on students at the Sage School in Hailey, and Bobbie Dahl was interested in seeing whether it might be useful at the Sagebrush Arena therapeutic equine program.

“My wife had it done to her in June as she was recovering from cancer, and it proved very benefi-cial,” said Jerry Cramer, a Wood River Valley auto mechanic.

Healing Touch was formulated by Janet Mentgen, a Denver nurse, in the 1980s. Today there are more than 2,000 certified practitioners and 50,000 people trained to do it.

“A lot of people think we’re way off in left field. I came home and wanted to practice it on my husband and children and they wouldn’t have anything to do with it. But it works,” said Margery Friedlander. “Some-times we create energy blocks by tensing up when we’re in pain or scared. Healing touch unblocks the flow of energy and distributes it so healing can take place.”

Lisa Thompson, a nurse at a

chil-

dren’s hospital in San Diego, started practicing Healing touch 17 years ago and now teaches it to others.

“I was a skeptic at first—I thought no way would it ever get into a hospital. But I started using it with nurses who had headaches. Then I tried it on a teen-ager who had had jaw surgery and was in a lot of pain when we couldn’t reach the doc-tor. Now I’m even getting refer-rals from doctors,” she said.

Healing Touch does not require a religious orientation, and St. Luke’s steers away from citing any religious connection.

Some medical practitioners suggest Healing Touch has a placebo effect, which, in fact, has been proven to have real and beneficial effects. Some doctors say treatments that claim to heal by manipulating invisible energy fields are a form of self-hypnosis.

“The bottom line is: Healing touch certainly isn’t anything that’s going to hurt you,” said Ketchum resident Marilyn Schwartz. “So you might as well give it a try.”

Lynn Flickinger relaxes as her partner Susie Koharski waves her hands over Lynn’s knees in a Healing Touch exercise. PHOTO: KAREN BOSSICK/TWP

St. Luke’s Wood River Medical Center will offer a Healing Touch Level 1 train-ing class from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday and Saturday at St. Luke’s Hailey Clinic. Cost is $350 or $125 for those will-ing to commit four hours per month of volunteer service using Healing Touch for nine months.

Coming down Trail Creek area near Corral Creek last week, our reader Sue Goodwin set her sights on this breath-taking fall scenery. Albeit short and sweet, the leaves changing during the autumn season have always offered great complement to the endless scenery in the Valley. COURTESY PHOTO: SUE GOODWIN

As it turns out, autumn is more work

than spring. First, there’s cleanup. There are new de-sign ideas, which means earth-mov-ing. There are, and always will be, bulbs to plant. For instance, I cleared a 15-square-foot area of burdock, which totally infested this lot six years ago. Now I just have to contend with the old seeds, which will continue to sprout for years. There were other infesta-tions here, and the only way to win the battle is to prevent re-seeding. Pull, pull, pull. Each year is better than the last—it’s hard work, but it yields small victories. Compounding interest is a series of incremental gains.

The 15-square-foot area was under a box elder, behind a border of various columbines. I planted 150 woodland bulbs, which should thrive there in the medium-shade space. The colum-bines are slowly seeding the area by themselves. Eventually, I’ll have a whole drift of differing types along with the natural-izing bulbs. There’s another 200 square feet of weedy under-growth that has to be cleared and planted with shade-loving ground covers like woodruff.

Leaving seed heads intact for animals is nice, but a mixed blessing because some plants re-seed aggressively. For in-stance, yarrow not only re-seeds and sprouts quickly, but it also spreads through its snaking root system. It has to be con-trolled, just like the exuberant malvas. Cornflowers (bachelor buttons) also re-seed readily. In short order, one plant will beget

a thousand. With the cornflowers, I look for

color varieties other than blue. There are pinks, whites, variegateds, vio-lets and burgun-dies, all of which I

use in my own seed mixes. Anything that grows here happily is proven, so the seeds get collected in plastic

pharmacy pill jars to be mixed and

scattered as needed. Seeding is tricky, so now I seed in the fall, and then re-seed in the spring. I do this to cover my butt. Some seeds do not survive our winter (baby blue-eyes, five spot, clark-ia, and many more), while most need prolonged chilling. While I almost know which is which, I’ve learned not to outthink nature, because she’s full of surprises and complexities beyond me.

If you want some high-visibil-ity (literally), late-season color, use asters, like the 5-foot-tall novi-belgii (New York aster) and the 15-inch-high Prof. Kip-penburg. Also, the aconitums (monk’s hood) are 5 feet tall and are just now blooming. A little-known beauty is lychnis, 4 feet tall, silver-leaved with radiant lavender blossoms (L. coronaria puts up with our soils). Here, it flowers from mid-July into No-vember. All the above thrive in semi-shade. Tricks: seed late, get later blooms… a June meadow in September. Also, the same spe-cies in semi-shade (5 to 6 hours of sun per day) will flower later than those in full sun.

Taste of Idaho’s Bounty, ThursdaySmith talks

benefits of eating local foodsBy KAREN BOSSICK

Alisa Smith could have starved even as her ad-venture in eating was just

beginning.How can you survive eat-

ing just what’s grown within a 100-mile radius when it’s the first day of spring and nothing is growing locally?

But she and James McKinnon, her sidekick, persisted, turning their odyssey into a book, “The 100-Mile Diet” (retitled “Plenty: One Man, One Woman and a Robust Year of Eating Locally”).

Smith recently shared her experiences at the Trailing of the Sheep Festival.

Smith said the adventure started as she pondered why her local store was selling apples from New Zealand when there were plenty of apples grown near her home in Vancouver, B.C.

There were surprises: She and McKinnon had to give up bread and pasta for six months until they found someone who grew wheat in the Pacific Northwest. Less than a hundred years ago, there were several varieties of wheat grown in the Northwest, Smith said. But then someone decided that it should be grown in the Midwest, instead.

And finding local seafood was much harder than they’d expected. Local prawns, for instance, were shipped to Asia, rather than Vancouver grocery stores.

For a while, Smith and McK-innon had to make their own salt and grow their own beans if they wanted to eat such things. Now there are people making salt, 100-mile bread and other foodstuffs they couldn’t get when they began their experiment.

Growing locally is not just a matter of carbon footprints, Smith said. It’s also a matter of human preservation.

For instance, there are Af-ricans who are malnourished because they can’t afford to eat the fish they grow locally be-cause Europeans put such a high premium on it.

Smith lost 25 pounds during her year on the 100-mile diet.

“We used a lot of honey and we always put cream on our dessert. So, our diet was not necessarily low-calorie,” she said.

Five years after the grand ex-periment, 90 percent of Smith’s diet is still comprised of local foodstuffs.

“It’s the taste,” she said. “You can’t go back to the other stuff after you’ve tasted locally-grown foods. We found we enjoyed some of the foods we were forced to try. And we developed relation-ships with the growers and the fishermen.”

Taste of Idaho’s Bounty will serve up local foodstuffs, like potatoes from M&M Farms on Thursday.

Sun Valley Ultimate Services and Page KluneEntrepreneurs are

creative by nature, forever

conjuring solutions to problems. Page Klune, founder of Sun Valley Ulti-mate Services, is an entrepreneur whose creativity resulted not only in a business but is part and parcel of everything the busi-ness does, be it event planning, concierge services, or property management and rentals.

Page’s background includes real estate, fashion design, catering, art, sales, and market-ing. When she moved to Sun Val-ley in 1996, her well-established business was selling Canadian Inuit art. Her taste and person-ality ultimately drew friends and clients looking for advice, not only on art, but on food, clothes, interior design, you name it. Af-ter a series of events, Page closed her art gallery and founded Sun Valley Ultimate Services as her natural outlet for facilitating others to live stylishly.

Soon Ultimate Services also included the lucrative, if compet-itive, business of property rental and management. Its client base quickly grew from five homes the day it opened to 1,000 clients on the mailing list today. On the concierge end, Ultimate Ser-vices provides everything clients need from catering to firewood, fine wines to house cleaning, and baby equipment to event planning, each with a highly personalized and savvy touch. Rental properties are chosen with a discriminating eye.

Page’s cre-ativity is lush. “I designed a really fun event for a Cal-ifornia client,” Page recalls. “We hired professional tango danc-ers, dressed as waiters, to serve cham-pagne to entering guests on trays with centerpiece fishbowls, complete with fish. There were live birds in cages and….” So it goes.

Like many entrepreneurs, Page doesn’t think of herself as

building a business. Rather, she has fun doing what she loves. The success has followed. Asked about the risk factor of entre-preneurship, Page allows she is “always taking a risk. If you don’t have a lot of money behind you, but believe in yourself, look at what’s out there, and take

hold of opportuni-ties, you’ll keep growing, even without a specific goal,” she states. “You just have to keep grabbing the ring.”

A couple of years ago Page brought on a new partner, Amy Callahan, a nurse who had recently moved to the valley. “I’d always wanted my own business,” says Amy. “That, combined with the challenge of restarting a nurs-ing career and

shift work got me looking around for alternatives.” She answered a “partnership for sale” ad by Ultimate Services, hit it off with Page, and now manages the company’s property rentals.

The jump from nursing appears big, but Amy explains, “There’s actually a strong parallel with nursing in that you work closely with people and try to meet their specific needs.”

Last year, the partners had their best year ever. “We’re always thinking creatively,” says Page, “because we’re in a very competitive business,” adding, “We also take our responsibility to owners and renters seriously.” Amy points out, “Our strength is being very hands-on and complementing each other well.” The partners explain that they directly hire trusted, efficient workers to help them deliver ser-vices while closely monitoring for quality and follow-through. And they often respond personally. “I’ve had clients call from Baldy to say they’ve invited friends for dinner that evening….can I take care of it?,” says Page. “Of course, I can. A few minutes later I’m at the grocery store and I’m there cooking by the time they get home.”

Page’s imagination just flows. Asked about a challenging busi-ness moment, she laughs, “I once designed a birthday party for some oenophiles. Thirty people were sitting down when bats flew in. There was a small uproar un-til I explained to everyone that

I’d hired the bats to keep insects away during the wine tasting.” Is that flair, or what!

You can catch Page acting in Laughing Stock’s upcoming play, “And Then There Were None.”

Mountain West Bank CEO to Retire

Mountain West Bank (MWB) an-nounced today that Jon Hippler, CEO since the bank’s founding by local business people in 1993, will be retir-ing from the bank on Dec. 31, 2010.

As I leave, I’m confident that the lead-ership we have put in place and the nearly 400 employees of Mountain West will continue to not only deal effectively with ongoing challenges, but also take the bank forward to new heights as conditions continue to im-prove.”

The spookier side of the Scorpio sun comes out this week, starting with Sunday’s Halloween celebrations. The moon shifts from theatrical Leo to practical Virgo, and the festivities will be marked by a delightful combination of fun and temperance. The follow-ing day is the Day of the Dead and All Saints’ Day. The next holiday for the spirit world comes on Friday during the new moon in Scorpio, also known as Hecate’s Moon.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It’s good to know whom you can depend on and who you’ll let depend on you. One friend in particular comes to mind. You know this person inside and out and can predict him or her well. There is comfort in familiarity. This week, you will be either a borrower or a lender to this person, and either way, all will be well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll make a breakthrough in a relationship this week. This will be a subtle but un-mistakable step to the next level. One caution: Talking about it with the other person will spoil the magic. Just affirm the current state silently to yourself. A new rhythm will be established over the next three weeks.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Loved ones will tend to agree with you on most matters this week, making this an excellent time to forward your agenda. If you don’t think you have an agenda, consider this: There are things you want, and you need the help and support of your loved ones to make these things happen. There’s nothing wrong with that.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Relation-ships work best when you take turns leading and following. You take con-trol when the matter at hand is one of your specialties. If the issue is impor-tant to a loved one, you back off and let him or her take over. It gives you no pleasure to cross anyone on purpose. It’s a winning style, and loved ones ap-preciate you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Mostly, you have no problem speaking your heart. Your natural tendency to be effusive and enthusiastic allows you to open the gates of your emotions and let the words fly. This week, there will be some reason why you can’t exactly say all that’s on your mind -- perhaps to protect another person’s feelings.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The more prepared you are the more con-fident you’ll be. Others will notice your confidence and will be drawn in by it. Conversations will start, relationships will be kindled, and opportunities will come your way. It all happens because you take the time to prepare for the events of your life.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Life is like an amusement park that has too many rides to cover in a 12-hour period. There will be time to explore your op-tions, just not every option all in one day. Your best bet is to learn to nar-row your focus to one activity and be happy with your choice for as long as it takes to complete the action.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s hard for some people to be vulnerable enough to speak from the heart, but it’s easy for you. This week is lucky for you when you take advantage of the skill often. Tell your loved ones how much you care for them. It’s some-thing everyone needs to hear once in a while, and you’ll be much appreci-ated.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s more noise and excitement around than you care to participate in this week. You’re very attractive, and everyone seems to need your atten-tion. The more you try to do things alone the more they call. Take mea-sures to protect your sleep from inter-ruption. Playing nature sounds while you sleep could help.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If someone close to you has a jealous impulse regarding you, you might find it flattering. But when it’s you who is

feeling jealous, the whole dynamic is uncomfortable. Luckily, you are able to attain a level of detachment this week so that you can get ahold of your emo-tions and make them work for you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There are many intellectually gifted people around you, and their intelligence comes in various forms. You love it when a person shows social savvy, is a whiz in the kitchen or has a way with children. Because you appreciate dif-ferent ways in which people exhibit I.Q., you may be the smartest of them all.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s an internal argument going on regard-ing your work, your personal life and finding a comfortable balance be-tween the two. You may even consider combining two parts of your life in an interesting new configuration. You’re exceedingly creative and will come up with brilliant solutions.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: You have deep compassion for your fellow man and will be compelled to commit good deeds accordingly all year long. Though you do none of it for your own personal gain, the laws of karma will favor you. November brings a mix of adventuresome experiences that will be both eye-opening and spiritually fulfilling. Your personal life gets a lift from new energy in December, likely in the form of an optimistic and sweet friend. Travel in December and June. Educational horizons expand in Au-gust.

The Punch line

I can’t believe you’re still angry about my costume.....I thought I made a great status cymbal!! PHOTO: SUSAN LITTLEFIELD

Avid weekly paper reader, Susan Littlefield, who has lived in the Valley for over 35 years, claims that laughter is the best medi-cine. She creates these scenarios in her husbands N-scale model railroad.

Learning life’s lessons

Who could imagine that the feel-good story of the year would be set in

a Brooklyn psych ward and start off with a suicide attempt? But that is exactly the case with the wonderful new film It’s Kind of a Funny Story. Essentially about teen angst – the film plays even better to adults who can readily identify as well with this story of self-discovery and redemption.

Nuanced, and with beautiful performances by the three leads, the film combines all the ele-ments that can make a movie so good. Adapted from the popular teen novel by Ned Vizzini, it is

superbly directed by the team of Anne Boden and Ryan Fleck. To-gether they create a world that is both frightening and loving and balance the two beautifully.

At the center of the film are two tremendous perfor-mances by the 16-year-old Keir Gilchrist and the very hot stand-up comedian Zach Galifanakis. Under pressure from his father to succeed, not able to keep up with his hugely overachieving friends at high school, and his inability to get the girl (and, don’t forget, decid-ing on his own to stop taking Zoloft), Gilchrist flirts with a dive off the Brooklyn Bridge, but instead reaches out for help and checks himself into a psych ward for five days.

There he meets Bobby (Galifa-

nakis), who takes him under his wing and

guides him through what at first is an extremely fright-ening experience. Galifanakis soared in The Hangover and here

he is even better, blending his comedic

persona effortlessly into this bear-like character. He

is the heart of the film and his performance is flawless. While in the ward, Gilchrist also finds love with the equally wonderful Emma Roberts. Finding hope in a new life, he achieves a great deal of wisdom over his five days and leaves on the doorstep of a wonderful new life. Looking like another teen flick, It’s Kind of a Funny Story is so much more. It reaffirms your faith in why you like movies so much in the first place.

They Did the monster Mash...Halloween Hoopla

crowds streets

Cari’s House of Hair turned into a House of Horror.

And the new Yellow Brick Road lived up to its name, with Dorothy, the Tin Man and the Scarecrow handing out Halloween candy.

Hailey bustled to the thrills and chills of its annual Halloween Hoopla Friday as dozens of tiny firemen, friend-ly ghosts, fairies and butterflies flitted from business to business in search of O’Henrys and licorice twists.

Greg Bloomfield showed that even insurance agents can

have fun as he accompa-nied a brood dressed in a John Lennon outfit he has had since creating the theme “Strawberry Fields Forever” for an insurance agents’ conclave at Sun

Valley.Cari Larson, dressed as

“Kate with Eight,” ushered children and their parents into her

hair salon, which had been turned into a haunted mansion.

“Would you like to stay for dinner?” cackled the resident witch, Lisa Flynt, as she stirred a pot brimming with unmentionables.

Dorothy and Toto, the Scarecrow and the Tin Man handed out treats at the

new Yellow Brick Road opposite At-kinsons’ Market. And Conalor Lohrke stirred up an icy cold foggy brew at the Cowboy Cocina’s haunted mac’n’cheese feed as dozens of little munchkins parading through the streets slowed the going-home traffic.

In Ketchum, Webb Landscape and Garden Center treated children to a plethora of activities, from dodge ball using water balloons to cookie decorat-ing.

Tallulah Gilbreath learned that “bobbing” for a donut hanging from a string was harder than it looked, finally succumbing to using her little finger to push it ever so slightly toward her mouth.

Meanwhile, Kimberlee Johnson of 403 E. Carbonate St. won the “Scari-est House” award in Hailey’s inaugural

Halloween house decorating contest. Diane Walker, of 311 2nd Ave. N., won Most Original for her “Till Death Do Us Part.” And Jan Wasmann of 711 Northstar Drive won the Judges’ Choice Award.

“Everyone really put up their best effort,” said Chamber Director Heather LaMonica Deckard. “We look forward to this event growing bigger every year.”

Storefront awards went to Atkinsons’ (Most Hailey); Janes (Most Hoopla) and Aqua Pro (Most Halloween). According to Kim Garvin, this year marks the big-gest and best Hoopla ever, as Cox Com-munications gave out 1,500 popcorn bags, a good estimate of the number of trick-or-treaters who attended the event.

Festival format with eight films ranging in length from two min-utes to 77 minutes being shown in one evening.

Some are just plain beautiful, such as the three-minute “La-dyBug Swarm,” which examines the beauty of nature through the eyes of a child.

Some are funny, such as the four-minute “Get Up, Stand Up,” which makes surfing in land-locked Wyoming look easy.

And some are serious exami-nations of conflicts over the land.

“Flathead Wild,” for instance, documents the scenic beauty and wildlife that could be lost in Montana to mountain top removal and methane drilling.

The film “The Fun Theory: Piano Stairs” asks whether more people would take the stairs than the escalator if it were fun to take the stairs. Another, “The Fun Theory: Bottle Bank Arcade,” examines whether more people would recycle glass if it became fun to do.

“Generations: A Perspective on Climate Change” humanizes the debate on climate change by exploring the delicate balance of winter and the intrinsic value of snow to people across cultures. Still another follows Seth and Baby, a veggie-oil fueled van, as they examine the physical, social and environmental aspects of food.

The latter film, “Elements of Food,” features Ketchum Ayurvedic practitioner Tona Leiseth as it looks at the local food system in Idaho.

The film festival, founded by

the South Yuba River Citizen’s League, has become the largest environmental film festival in the United States.

“It deals with topical issues that are current and compelling. And, more importantly, it shows how people are coming up with solutions for dealing with some of these problems,” said ERC Director Craig Barry.

The ERC is hosting the film festival, along with The Ele-phant’s Perch.

There will be raffle prizes, including a snowboard from the Board Bin, Lisa Horton jew-elry, a Nordic ski pass, Smith sunglasses and an Osprey pack. (Raffle tickets are $5 each or five for $20). Beer, wine and appetiz-ers prepared by Jes Gelet will be for sale.

The Wood River High School Environmental Club will show its video about idling outside businesses, as well as an art installation of bottle caps outlin-

ing Baldy.And filmgoers are invited to

attend a 5 p.m. pre-party hosted by a new loosely-structured group called the Ketchum Green Drinks. The Ketchum Green Drinks is based on a national group that sprang up a couple of years ago to give environmental networkers an opportunity to get together to talk with like-mind-ed people about green issues.

Moellenburg qualifiesThe Sun Valley Figure Skating Club’s Shayna Moellenberg has quali-fied for the Pacific Coast Sectional Championships Nov. 9 through 13 in Culver City, Calif. Competing against eight of the best Junior La-dies skaters in the six state region, Moellenburg won gold at the North-west Pacific Regional Figure Skating Championships in Boise in October and became the 2011 Northwest Pacific Junior Ladies Free Skate Champion. At Regionals, the 16-year old Community School tenth grader placed first in both the Short and Long Programs by a significant point margin. Her final combined free skate score was 105.08, more than 12 points higher than the second place finish. Moellenberg qualified for Sectionals as the Novice Ladies Silver Medalist last year at the Regional Championships in Medford, Ore. She is the first Sun Valley skater to qualify for sectionals in two consecutive years. COURTESY PHOTO: JAMES BOURRET

You can own a piece of Boardwalk without having to worry about latching

onto Park Place.The Wood River Land Trust is

pushing to finish the Croy Creek Boardwalk that juts out into the wetlands in the Draper Wood River Preserve at Lions Park in Hailey.

It’s trying to raise the $60,000 by selling off the boardwalk in increments, after collecting nearly $7,000 during a Board-walk Aglow fundraising event held Thursday evening. Twenty-five bucks will buy you an inch; $300, a foot, and $1,000 a whole yard.

The tough part—the ce-ment piers pilings that hold up the walk made from recycled compressed plastic—were put in this summer amidst a swarm of mosquitoes, said Melanie Dahl, a WRLT spokesperson.

Volunteers hauled away 1,200 tons of concrete, broken glass bottles and even an old water heater and stove on what used to be a former dump. And other volunteers planted 150 black cottonwood, red osier dogwood, chokecherry bushes and a cus-tom seed blend of native grasses designed for riparian areas there.

Despite their precarious beginnings on a bed of river rock and broken glass, the small trees and shrubs have thrived.

The 550-foot boardwalk loop

will take walkers from the south end of Lions Park through a tangle of tall grasses and shrubs into a wetlands area.

A wildlife viewing platform that will jut out over the Wood River will allow viewers a prime spot to see bald eagles, ducks and other water fowl, moose, red wing blackbirds, kestrels and wood peckers.

The trail will then head back overland returning to Lions Park.

“I came here as part of a bird class and I remember all the birds we saw,” said Marne El-more, an Oregon State Univer-sity student. “I feel lucky to have such a great area to conduct my study so close to home.”

The Draper Wood River Pre-serve, as it’s called, encompasses 84 acres on both sides of Croy Road. Much of it uplands habitat on the steep hills that tower over the wetlands.

The Wood River Land Trust hopes to use the area for educa-tional purposes.

Jeanne Cassell, who is work-ing to build the Croy Canyon Ranch facility for senior living, says she would love to see the boardwalk extend to the other side of the wetlands so that resi-dents of the Ranch will be able to use it.

Tax deductible donations may be made at The Wood River Land Trust, 119 E. Bullion St., Hailey ID 83333 or by visiting woodriv-erlandtrust.org and clicking on “donate.”

Completing the Boardwalk

Natalie Spencer, major gifts officer for the Wood River Land Trust, sets out lu-minarias for the Wetlands Boardwalk Aglow. The Wood River Land Trust held a candlelit tour of the boardwalk accented by guitar music, wine and champagne Thursday night in hopes of snagging some donations to complete the board-walk.

briefsGrand Opening at Spirit n’ Motion Athletic School

Community and chamber mem-bers are invited to an Open House and Grand Opening of the newly remod-eled Spirit n’ Motion Athletic School from 5 to 7 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 5.

The official ribbon cutting will take place at 5:30 p.m. at SMAS new facil-ity located at 3950 Woodside Blvd. (across from Power Engineers), where attendees can enjoy wine, refresh-ments, raffle and a small performance/demonstration at 6 p.m.

Spirit n’ Motion Athletic School prides itself on providing the Wood River Community a safe and positive environment for children and adults to develop themselves physically, mentally, emotionally, and morally through cheerleading, gymnastics, stunting, jumping, dancing, and fitness and is a home of the Soldier Mountain All Stars Competitive Cheerleaders.

For more information, please call Amanda Norton at 720-4306.

Trout Unlimited November meeting

Stop by between 5 and 7 p.m. at The Roosevelt Restaurant in Ketchum this Thursday, Nov. 4 to see Herb Myer from Trout Unlimited’s Boise Chapter. Myer will offer a two-part slide show, first of fly-fishing for bonefish in French Polynesia at Tetiaroa, Marlon Brando’s private atoll, and Anaa, a remote atoll in the Tuamotu Island chain.

Tahiti offers an epic adventure into the remote Tuamotu Archipelago of French Polynesia in search of monster bonefish.

Polynesia’s Tuamotu Archipelago is a true tropical paradise characterized by uninhabited islands, white sand flats, and large unsophisticated bone-fish that have rarely, if ever, seen a fly. These heavy-shouldered fish range from 4 to 12 pounds and chase flies with reckless abandon.

For more information, call 622-4613.

SVSEF’s wild game dinnerBy KAREN BOSSICK

The Sun Valley Ski Educa-tion Foundation is gearing up for its 45th winter

season with its 34th Annual Fall Wild Game Dinner and Auction.

The event, a fundraiser for the Foundation’s 450-plus skiers and snowboarders, will be held Sat-urday, Nov. 13, at the Limelight Room of the Sun Valley Inn.

Tickets are $100 per person and include dinner and wine. Sponsor tables are available for $1,500 and include 10 season pass raffle tickets.

“I know I say this every year… however, this one is going to be really special,” said fundraising event director Kate Berman.

Online bidding will be avail-able for the first time beginning Nov. 1 at www.biddingforgood.com

Auction items include a luxury vacation on the Clevelander Yacht Charter in the Caribbean or Mediterranean; a Solage Calistoga Spa Package in Napa; and luxury vacations at the Amangani Resort in Jackson Hole, a luxury resort penthouse in Punta Mita, Mexico, and the Middle Fork Lodge.

Extravagant parties up for bid include a Cornerstone “Grotto” private cocktail and dinner party for 25 and a private party with recording artist Bryon Friedman sponsored by Apple’s Bar and Grill. The latter includes a chance to ski with Baldy’s best.

Ski Education Foundation Director Don Wiseman said the foundation must raise a half-mil-lion dollars this year to support its youth’s training facilities, rac-ing opportunities and academic assistance.

The youth not only learn such

skills as discipline, time man-agement and the value of hard work, but they become ingrained with the outdoor mountain lifestyle that is the fabric of this Valley’s culture, he said.

The Ski Education Foundation is a significant contributor to the economy of the Sun Valley area. By hosting up to 10 national

and regional competitions every winter, it brings about three-quarters of a million dollars into the community every season.

For reservations, contact Nina Gardiner at 726-4129, extension 102, or via nina@svsef.org

Are you ready to be in-spired? What can we do in our Valley to make change

for a better, brighter, greener future? In the spirit of envi-ronmental activism, the films featured in the 8th annual Wild and Scenic Environmental Film Festival will be sure to make you laugh, think, and cry. The feature film Split Estate just won an Emmy for best research in a documentary. This film really touches on the consequences of natural gas and oil drilling. A Split Estate situation is one where the landowners do not own the mineral rights to the land underneath. This can cause environmental pollution and se-rious health problems. Flathead Wild follows the Flathead Rapid Assessment Visual Expedition

(RAVE) and explores just what it takes to be a conservation photographer. The photogra-phers have 13 days to save this pristine wilderness. Will they do it?

Wood River High School’s Environmental Club will be featuring a video that they made, an art installation, and ideas that they have for solving problems we face in our Valley. The Environmental Club was passionate about being involved in this event and wanted to do something to show the com-munity that they care about the environment.

Hopefully, you and your fam-ily can attend this event and help support the Environmental Resource Center. Join early as Ketchum Green Drinks is hosting the pre-party beginning at 5 p.m. Beer, wine, raffle. Be Fresh! Go Local! Act Wild!

Catholic Church

mourns loss of Hewlett

By KAREN BOSSICK

Ninety-one year old Rose-mary Hewlett, a longtime second-homeowner in

the Sun Valley area, died Friday at her home in Atherton, Calif., after a brief illness.

Hewlett and her husband Bill—of Hewlett Packard Co. fame—donated the statue of Mary to Our Lady of the Snows Catholic Church in Sun Valley many years ago. The 23-foot tall, 250-pound statue was believed to have been carved in Italy more than 200 years ago. The Hewletts found it in Ireland and had it shipped across the Atlantic.

The statue was often nick-named “Our Lady of the Cold Toes” until it was given some shelter from the cold and snow with the building of the new church in 2007.

Hewlett met her first husband Robert Bradford of Boston, Mass., on a ski trip to Sun Val-ley. They spent many holidays in Sun Valley until Bradford died of cancer in 1969. Hewlett married William Hewlett eight years later and they divided their time between Portola Valley, the Cedars and Sun Valley. Hewlett will be buried at the Ketchum Cemetery.

What is an Individual(k) plan?

By PAtRICK BuChANAN, StAtE FARM® INSuRANCE

Do you have plans for re-tirement? Do they include a retirement plan? If you

are a small business owner, you may feel you need to continue working during your golden years. Many business owners may not realize there are plans available to build retirement accounts.

One such plan is the Individual(k) for business own-ers who have no employees other than a spouse. While the plan itself may not to be very well known, it can be an appropriate way to provide income during retirement.

An Individual(k) is similar to the more popular 401(k), with contributions limits well above those of Individual Retirement Accounts. Contributions for the 2010 tax year are limited to $16,500 as long as they don’t exceed 100 percent of your compensation. There is even a $5,500 catch-up provision for persons age 50 and older.

The deadline for establishing an Individual(k) is the last day of our company’s tax year. If your company follows the calen-dar year, the deadline would be December 31 of the current year. If not, the deadline would be the last day of your current fiscal year.

Make an appointment with a qualified financial profes-sional to discuss whether an Individual(k) is appropriate for your business. Your retirement plans should include retiring.

To Your Health~ good advice from local practitioners ~

By DR. StEVE WASILEWSKI

As winter fast approaches, skiers are counting the days until Baldy opens. Unfortunately, many ski

seasons are cut short by injuries to the knees.

Years ago, a broken tibia was the most frequent serious injury to the skier’s leg. However, as skiing technique and equipment have modernized, knee ligament injuries have become the injury. There are a number of things skiers can do to decrease the odds of a “blown out” knee ruining their season.

First, preseason conditioning will not only alleviate early season muscle aches and quad burn and shorten recovery, but it will decrease loss of control, crashes and injuries. A comprehensive program that includes strength, agility, balance, flexibility and aerobic condi-tioning ideally should be year-round, but six weeks of preseason work is a minimum. Strengthening the core, hip and knee is the most important.

Second, as the average Baldy skier ages, old injuries and “wear and tear” are common. Although they may be minimally symptomatic during the off-season, they can easily reappear when fueled by early-season enthusi-asm. Dealing with these prior to the snow season can make for safer, more enjoyable, skiing. If this applies to you, check in now with a physical therapist or orthopedist, and make sure rehab is complete and your “damaged parts” have reached their maximum potential.

Third, get your equipment modern-ized and checked before the season begins—especially your bindings—to help minimize the risk.

There has been a lot of good research about the cause of knee injuries, not only in the World Cup-level athlete, but

also in the recreational skier. Many knee injuries actually occur before the body hits the snow. While several com-mon threads appear in this research, the most common denominator is fight-ing loss of control. In the recreational skier, this is usually in a backwards direction with the hips below the knees. Learning when and how to fall does prevent injuries. Carl Ettlinger, of the Vermont Ski Safety Group, has pio-neered much of this work, which can be found in more detail on the Internet.

Now is the time to get your knees tuned up, before the snow falls and you’re ready to hit the slopes.

abouT The auThor:Dr. Wasilewski is board certified in orthopae-

dic surgery, specializing in shoulder and knee surgery, arthroscopy, and total joint arthro-plasty. He is seeing patients at St. Luke’s Clinic – Sun Valley Sports Medicine in Ketchum.

The store manager gave mean interview right away. Ithought if she understood mypassion for shoes, I would getthe job. Apparently my eager-ness startled the woman.

She explained that she had tofire her last employee for wear-ing a different pair of shoeseveryday.

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,My husband has been trying tostart an Internet business fromhome for the past several years,but it's been slightly less thansuccessful. I finally told him todust off his resume and get areal job. He followed my adviceand landed an interview at acompany nearby. The problemis, he thinks he can go to theformal interview dressed casu-ally, which is only a slightimprovement over his self-madeboxers and t-shirt dress code.Even though the companyhas a business casualdress code, I told himhe should wear a suitand tie to the interview.Who do you think is right,my husband or me?

• • •Cash: Wow, that's a loaded

question. You're asking us to stepin-between a husband and wifedisagreement.

Carry: Fortunately after beingmarried for over fifteen years, Ilearned exactly how to handlethis…always side with thewoman! And if your husband issmart, he'll do the same thing.

Cash: He actually should bedressing up for the interview.Regardless of the company's dresspolicy, it's always a smart idea to

give your best first impression.Carry: It appears your husband

has grown accustomed to the self-employed, dot-com world wherebunny slippers and a bathrobe areconsidered business attire.However, the job market todaycalls for him to dress up a bitmore for the interview.

Cash: So unless the companytold him to come "casual", then asuit is standard dress for the occa-sion.

Carry: Like you suggestedwith his resume, have him "dustoff" his best suit. And if boxersand t-shirts have been his dailyattire for awhile, he may needyour assistance in picking out agood power tie as well.

Cash: Now, another problemhere may be that your husbanddoesn't really want a job. Itsounds like he needed somestrong encouragement to get backout in the job force. You maywant to consider discussing thisnew opportunity with him a littlefurther.

Carry: I know how difficult thechange can be for your husband.When I worked from home, box-ers were my normal businessattire as well. My wife didn't likeit and even Cash occassionallycomplained when I called him athome in the mornings.

Cash: I sure did, because youalways called me from your webcam!

Casually ConfusedWe've probably all heard the term

"business casual", but dress codeshave become increasingly complex.And it's enough to confuse thesavviest of dressers. Besides "busi-ness casual", there is "casual wear"which is the trend away from pin-stripe suits or high heels. Thenthere is "business appropriate" or"business ready". The latter mean-ing you must have a suit availableat all times. Don't forget "corporatecasual", meaning dress pants andsport jacket or "resort casual", atypical no-no for the businessoffice. It's all enough to make youjust stay in your pajamas.Dressing For Success

Since the early 1990's, the trendamong businesses has been toimplement a more casual workattire. In a survey by the Societyfor Human RecoursesManagement, 87% of respondentsreported a casual wear policy ofone day a week or more at theircompanies. Why? Many believeit helps attract younger employ-ees, improves productivity andeases the tension between man-agement and staff.

The St. Luke’s Wood River Founda-tion is excited to announce it has been awarded a grant from the Boise Affili-ate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure for its Improving Access to Screening and Diagnostic Mammography Services for Underserved Women project. The grant will help provide mammogram services to women in need.

The project aligns with the Foun-dation’s efforts to improve access to mammography services and will pro-vide scholarships for uninsured and underinsured women 25 years and older who are in need of screening and diagnostic mammograms and/or breast ultrasound. The grant will help identify cancer at earlier stages when

it is easier to treat, potentially increas-ing the survival rate of women.

In August of 2009, community generosity built and equipped a state-of-the-art Women’s Imaging Center, which comprehensively addresses breast care and women’s health. Since the Women’s Imaging Center opened, 145 women in our community have received full scholarships for breast care services through a previous grant from the Boise Affiliate of Susan G. Ko-men for the Cure.

For more information on mam-mography scholarships contact (208) 381-2095. To schedule a mammogra-phy appointment at St. Luke’s Wood River contact (208) 727-8283.

St. Luke’s Wood River Foundation receives Susan G. Komen grant

Fran Jewell, executive director of Positive Partners Assistance Dogs, Inc., recently presented a Web semi-nar on mitigating stress in service dogs for the National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors. This was the first webinar of its kind for the as-sociation.

Although the seminar was designed for trainers of service dogs who assist the handicapped, the techniques are useful for all dogs. Service dogs, how-ever, tend to be under more stress because they work daily and often encounter unfamiliar situations, she said.

Jewell is the only certified dog behavior consultant in Idaho by the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants.

Positive Partners Assistance Dogs trains four types of service or assis-tance dogs: mobility dogs for people who need balance and assistance climbing stairs or bending over; hear-ing assistance dogs; guide dogs for the visually impaired; and wheelchair as-sistance dogs. Each service dog is cus-tom-trained for the individual.

Positive Partners is currently is working with the Women’s Auxiliary of the American Legion David Ketchum

Post 15, which is raising funds for training a service dog for a disabled Idaho veteran.

For more information or to make a donation, go to the Positive Partners Assistance Dogs website at www.ppa-di.org or call 721-1309.
