JACKSON HOLE WEEKLY STAFF


That’s it, summer’s over, it’s done. Well, if you are a school teacher, student athlete, 90-day wonder going back south for the winter, whateverthe case may be, this is the week some would call the end-of-the-line for the summer season. Technically we still have another month until theseason flips to fall. However, it does look like we may get an early taste of fall weather, with a couple of cold Canadian weather systems dippingunwantedly into the northern Rockies this coming week.

The Cool: The coldest it has ever been here in Jackson this week is 20-degrees. That happened on August 26th, 1992. There was a numberdays that late-August that got down in the low 20’s, which is considered a “hard” freeze to your precious plants. We won’t be seeing anythingthat cold this week, but if you have some prized plants or veggies in the garden, it may be time to start paying attention to the forecastedovernight low temperatures again.

The Hot: Hitting 90-degrees for a high becomes way less common in the Town of Jackson at the endof August. The hottest temperature on record in town this week is 92-degrees, a record that was setback on August 24th, 1969. There is an even hotter temperature, from a weather observation postthat was located just outside of town, which back on August 20, 1934 recorded an afternoon high tem-perature of 94-degrees.

365 days of inversionDeidre Norman has done it just about everywhere

now. After all, she did it every day for that past year.Usually, Deidre does it alone, but sometimes a friendor two will join in. On more than one occasion, agoofy-looking white dog stares at her like she’s losther mind.

Watching the three-minute Vimeo, we laughed, wecried, we felt disoriented. Deidre took a picture of her-self doing a handstand every day for a year – 365 shotsof her upside-down in front of the Tetons, in the snowin Alaska, or in the Taj Mahal gardens with baffled on-lookers gawking at the Jackson Hole yogi.

Banking on JH headlineEvery year in late August a scan of the headlines in

the financial world makes for some curious reading.It’s the central bankers annual pow-wow in GTNP andthe resulting news stories ahead of the Federal Re-serve symposium range from comical to just plain try-ing too hard.

“When Packing for Jackson Hole, Include TheseEconomic Reports.”

“Why Do We Care About Jackson Hole?”“Asian Eyes on Jackson Hole.”“Jackson Hole Predicts Jack Squat In The Bond Market.”“A (Jackson) Hole Lot of Nothing.”

And our personal favorite: “Don’t Hike Alone IsJackson Hole Bear Warning for Central Banks.”

Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen and EuropeanCentral Bank President Mario Draghi will give theiropening addresses on Friday.

Meat Dan MarinoDan Marino had a dream: To play for the Miami

Dolphins. No, not that Dan Marino, and not thatdream. This Marino, 53, owns the Jackson Hole Buf-falo Meat Company.

Daily Finance ran a monster story on Marino andhis wife, Suzanne, on August 12. We learned severalthings about the meat man.

“When Dan Marino was 14, his family drove throughJackson, Wyoming, on a summer road trip. ‘We camein through Togwotee Pass in the north,’ he remem-bered. ‘I saw the Snow King ski resort, and I tapped mymom on the shoulder and said, ‘I’m moving here.’”

When Marino graduated from high school, heloaded up his 66 Mustang and beelined for the Hole.He started a power-washing business, cleaning every-thing from log homes to commercial kitchen stovehoods. He also worked part-time cutting steaks andfilleting fish at the Cadillac Grille where he metSuzanne, who was the owner and chef at the time.

The couple bought the then-50-year-old meat com-pany in 1997.

Sweet home Jackson HoleLynyrd Skynyrd is headed to the valley to help the

Town of Jackson celebrate its 100 years of incorporation. Areuonsomething.com and Guitar Worldwere just a

couple of music outlets that ran the news that theseminal southern rockers were retooling and hittingthe road this fall, on a tour that will carry them toJackson Hole on August 31 for the town’s centennialcelebration.

Gary Rossington left Jacksonville, Florida, for Jack-son, Wyoming, years ago after his post-Skynyrd bandwas dropped by MCA records.

“In the midst of their 40th Anniversary Tour, thisiconic southern band is gonna blow the roof off ofJackson!” said Mayor Mark Barron through Jackson-HoleLive, who is promoting the free show.

War store: Jackson Hole fatigues The NY Times ran a map-driven piece on where mil-

itary surplus gear can be had in the United States.Teton County was noticeably missing from the manyareas across the country one could obtain a grenadelauncher or night vision goggles.

A grant from the Defense Department makes avail-able all kinds of war toys. Looking for a used Black-hawk helicopter? The closest place is Mohave County,Arizona. They have two in stock.

Props&DissesSigns of the end times

We’re living in the last age here in Wyoming. Of that, therecan be no doubt. Referencing Biblical passages, the case canbe made quite convincingly that the end is near. Let’s start with “Earthquakes in diverse places,” referenced

in the New Testament. Hell’s a poppin’ in Yellowstone. Earthquakeswarms have become a common occurrence within the past decade.And you can’t get more diverse than the wacky geothermal features andabundant wildlife found in America’s first national park. Throw in theoozing Budge Butte and the prophecy is, well, ground-shaking.

What about pestilence, plague and famine? I offer CWD/brucellosis,drones and the severely limited restaurant choices for Westbankers. Doesfeeding elk pellets in an artificial zoo-like setting so tourists can sleigh ridethrough the “cafeteria” cause unnatural crowding and promotion of thespread of diseases like CWD and brucellosis?

Drones are a plague, plain and simple. Do we really need them to de-liver orders from Amazon.com or drop bombs on Kurds? They are a cow-ardly and sloppy way to make war. We certainly don’t need themhovering over our ascent of the Middle Grand. And don’t think for aminute we don’t live in the reality of extreme famine. Ever try to getbreakfast at Nora’s on a Sunday morning? Osteria and Teton Pines bookout weeks ahead in summer’s peak and a romantic dinner at Couloir re-quires a chalk bag and carabiners.

Mark of the Beast? The hand stamp at the Cowboy Bar. False prophets?The engineer that signed off on Walgreens. The anti-Christ? Fintan Ryan.Wars and rumors of wars? Pick a current lawsuit, any lawsuit.

And finally, I leave you with this damning piece of evidence. Closing ourBibles, let’s invoke, instead, age-old adages like “when pigs fly” or “hellfreezes over.” Teton Valley News is reporting Victor will soon be installingits first stoplight (the second in all of Teton County, Idaho) with $1.4 mil-lion in federal grant money. That’s going to be one helluva stoplight. Packthe Subaru. It’s the end of the world as we know it.

McDonald for mayorStephen McDonald has not drunk the Kool-Aid. Of the

sample of mayoral candidates, the bootfitter maverick isprobably the biggest long shot to slip his foot into the glassslipper this November. But his campaign, or more specifi-cally, his lack of one, is admirable.

Firstly, McDonald avoids platitudes. That’s refreshing. If I hear one morecandidate for office say he or she is for sustainability I’m going to barf. It’slike saying you are pro-equality or against overspending. Duh, you’re forsustainability. Who isn’t? As economist Donald Boudreax puts it in his re-cent Pittsburgh Tribune-Review piece, ask yourself whether the oppositestatement is true in order to ferret out platitude-speak. Would a viable can-didate say he is opposed to sustainability, against equality or for out-of-con-trol spending?

Secondly, McDonald is the only candidate for mayor (or any office) whohasn’t mired himself in the housing crisis. Housing the valley’s workforce isthe catchphrase of the day but it certainly isn’t anything new. Unless a can-didate owns a 40-acre plot in town and has a building permit for theworld’s biggest apartment complex already through the arduous planningprocess, he or she will be fairly powerless to make the classifieds sectionlook any better in the next two to four years.

“People have been here six months and they’re jumping up and downabout finding a place to live,” McDonald told an audience at the Leagueof Women Voters forum recently. “Sorry, maybe those guys didn’t dotheir homework. Jackson is a hard place to live and always has been.”

McDonald also has blasted Sara Flitner, in particular, for the size ofher war chest – some 34 grand. “I believe big money steals freedom fromthe little guy,” he says. McDonald has promised not to raise money forhis campaign. We love the “No bullcrap” signs. McDonald’s only stumbleis railing against the police force. He comes off sounding like every other20-something who gets pulled over for a taillight out and immediatelyblames “The Man” when they are cited for possession.

Look Ma (Bell), no handsWe’ve already “dissed” the ban on cell phones while drivingin town, but we still don’t like it. Yes, we know statisticsshow it’s a lot safer to drive without talking on your phone.It’s also a lot safer to drive without eating, smoking, or dis-

ciplining naughty kids in the backseat. Heck, if you reallywant to be safe, throw your car keys in the pond and lock your-

self in the bathroom. Wait, statistics show you’re more likely to be in-jured in your bathroom than any other place in the house.

Conversations, in general, are what cause distraction – hands-free ornot. Banning talking on cell phones encourages texting. Answering a callwhile driving and fumbling to attach an earpiece to oneself is far moredangerous than plastering the phone to your head and absorbing a slowbrain cancer. This seems like an ordinance lobbied for by BlueAnt.

What is it that makes travel so addic-tive? Is it the promise of new experiencesand the opportunity to meet people whoare distinctly different than us? Or is itthe hope that being pried from our com-fort zone will reveal life’s deeper lessons?

Author Pam Houston explores howtravel can transform us in her recentbook, Contents May Have Shifted. Thenovel employs a fractured style of story-telling, which has caused a bit of grum-bling from some critics. Still, Houstonand others defend this travel tale mosaic,where the reader jumps from one experi-ence to another, from one place to thenext – much like Houston’s restless per-sonal trajectory – as a vital element to thenarrative.

It was no easy feat to lock down thisnomadic scribe and UC Davis collegeprofessor, who, when she is not wander-ing, splits her time between Coloradoand California. But just before deadline Imanaged to locate Houston. “I am actu-ally on the top of a mountain at the mo-ment... and cell service is poor,” shewrote in an email on Monday afternoon.

Houston, perhaps best known as theauthor of the renowned short story col-lection, Cowboys are my Weakness, willread from Contents May Have Shifted 7p.m., Wednesday, August 27, at TetonCounty Library. She also is teaching awriting workshop on August 28, though itis currently full. To join a waiting list forthe workshop, contact Leah Shlachter,adult program coordinator, at 733-2164ext. 229; [email protected].

Planet Jackson Hole: Is Contents MayHave Shifted a narrative of your ownreal-life experiences? Pam Houston: I get this question a lot,

as you can imagine, and my answer is al-ways some version of yes and no. But theprecise way you have worded your ques-tion, I think the answer would have to beyes. This book is a narrative of my ownreal-life experiences, although I would beamiss if I didn’t say I have taken those ex-periences and shaped them into stories,which has, in some cases, altered the ex-perience somewhat from what we mightagree to call “how it really happened.”Which is one reason why we decided tocall it a novel.

Who bankrollsWyoming’stop-fundedprimarycandidates?

By Gregory Nickerson / WyoFile

Editor’s NoteAlthough the primary election will be old news by the time the ink dries on

this issue, this article contains relevant information for voters trying to bettergrasp the role that campaign contributions play in the sphere of politics. Be-sides, it will surely be interesting to compare the primary election winners tosome of the top-funded candidates listed in this story.

Wyoming candidates for state elected offices raised more than $2.55 million incampaign funds from January to August of 2014.

For many of the top-funded candidates, self-financing played a major role inamassing campaign cash. However, a number of candidates employed their per-sonal networks to gain small donations from a large number of donors.

Money from political groups was in evidence, but didn’t overwhelm the amountof donations from individuals.

A larger factor in the primary election fundraising is the consistent dominanceof the Republican Party in generating candidates and campaign donations.

While the $2.55 million raised by state candidates may seem like a lot, it’sfar less than the amount raised by U.S. Senators John Barrasso (R) and MikeEnzi (R) in their bids for reelection. Enzi raised more than $4.1 million from2009-2014, and Barrasso already has $3.1 million in cash on hand for the 2018election.

For detailed information on who has funded the legislative candidates in yourdistrict, visit the Secretary of State’s Wyoming campaign finance website.

The Republican advantageRepublicans have a strong majority in Wyoming, making up 65 percent of regis-

tered voters in the state. It’s no surprise that this translates to a significant advan-tage in the number of GOP candidates that run, and the amount of money raised.

Among candidates for executive offices, Republicans out-raised Democrats by afactor of 12 to 1. The two Democratic hopefuls for Wyoming’s top elected seats,Pete Gosar and Mike Ceballos, raised a combined total of $127,455, while 13 Re-publicans raised $1,607,332.

In the Senate races, Republicans out-raised Democrats by 8 to 1. The four Demo-cratic House candidates raised $13,433, while 17 Republicans raised $110,712.

Democrats did a little better in the House, but Republicans still out-raised them3 to 1. Twenty-one Democratic candidates raised $97,738, while 75 Republicansraised $295,681.

PAC MoneyOut of the $2.55 million in total campaign contributions raised by all Wyoming

state candidates in 2014 so far, roughly 25 percent came from Political Action Com-mittees (PACs). The exact number is $642,923.

Since corporations can’t give directly to candidates, they form PACs to bundlemoney from their employees and other like-minded companies to give to candi-dates. The industries giving significant amounts to Wyoming candidates includecoal, oil, gas, insurance, telecommunications, and tobacco, among others. Socialand political groups also form PACs to bundle money from individuals.

Executive officesGov. Matt Mead raised more than any other candidate for statewide office. To

date, he’s amassed more than $413,640 in donations, according to numberscompiled by the Wyoming Secretary of State’s election division. The majority ofthat money came from 242 individual donors and PACs who each gave morethan $1,000.

Unlike 2010, when Mead self-financed $1.22 million of his $1.98 million cam-paign, this year Mead gave no money to the campaign before the primary. Instead,he raised money from 940 donors, evidencing the broad political base he’s built upduring four years as an incumbent.

Those who gave more than $1,000 to Mead included a number of lobbyists, for-mer and current staffers, fellow politicians and legislators, wealthy business own-ers, and a number of regular GOP campaign donors.

Three members of the Governor’s task force to remake the University ofWyoming College of Engineering gave $1,000 donations to Mead: Tom Botts ofMoran (Shell), Greg Hill of Wilson (Hess Corporation), and Dick Agee of Houston(Wapiti Energy). Mead recently approved the task force’s plans and released thefunds for constructing two major buildings on the UW campus.

Mead’s corporate donors from the coal industry included employee PACs forCloud Peak Energy and Arch Coal. Oil industry donors included PACs for Marathon,QEP, BP, Halliburton, and Anadarko. The power utilities PacifiCorp and Basin Elec-tric Power Cooperative gave Mead donations through PACs, as did BNSF Railway.

Mead’s campaign also garnered 585 donations of $400 or less.Mead challenger Superintendent of Public Instruction Cindy Hill (R-Cheyenne)

raised $110,000. More than $81,000 of that was self-financed through loans, mone-tary donations, and in-kind contributions.

Taylor Haynes, the third Republican candidate for Governor, has raised $137,914to date. Haynes brought in 37 donations of $1,000 or more, 73 donations between$500 and $1,000, and 193 donations of $100 or less. Haynes also self-financed$26,597 to his campaign as an in-kind donation.

Democratic candidate for governor Pete Gosar has raised $56,000 this year. Hefaces no challengers in the primary election.

Coming in at a close second to Gov. Mead’s fundraising total was Ed Murray, GOPprimary candidate for Secretary of State. Murray provided more than $361,000 of hisown money to the $405,245 total raised by his campaign committee.

Likewise, the other candidates for Secretary of State also self-financed a largeamount of their contributions.

Pete Illoway personally provided $40,000 of the $71,025 raised by his campaign.Ed Buchanan self-financed $51,500 of his $94,803 in total campaign donations.Clark Stith put $70,000 of his own money toward his $86,998 campaign.

Campaign finance observers say self-financing can be a potential handicap forcandidates. “If you self-finance you are more likely to lose,” said Pete Quist, directorof research for the Montana-based National Institute for Money in State Politics. “Ifyou get lots of donations of $5, all those people are more likely to vote for you.”

However, it’s possible that the large amount of self-financing among all candi-dates for secretary of state may equalize any disadvantage in this race.

Instruction, bringing in $86,830. Nearly all of that money — $85,380 — wasself-financed through immediate family and personal donations.

Democratic candidate for Superintendent Mike Ceballos raised $71,415($41,000 self-financed).

Superintendent candidate Jillian Balow (R) brought in $40,205 ($24,295self-financed), while Bill Winney (R) garnered $24,686, self-financing allbut $650 of the campaign.

In the race for Treasurer, incumbent Mark Gordon (R) attracted $124,546in donations from 181 donors, and self-financed $80,644 of the campaign.Challenger Ron Redo raised $938, all self-financed.

Incumbent State Auditor Cynthia Cloud (R) faces no challenger. Sheraised $17,746 by the August 12 pre-primary filing date, self-financing$5,131.

Senate racesSen. Fred Emerich (R-Cheyenne) is the top-funded campaign for

Wyoming Senate so far, raising $19,055. That’s twice the amount raised byhis primary challenger Rep. Lynn Hutchings (R-Cheyenne), who raised$9,571.

Emerich out-raised Hutchings primarily through $10,000 in large-size dona-tions from PACs and individuals. This includes $1,000 each from PACs for thePetroleum Association of Wyoming, Wyoming Public Employees Association,Wyoming Realtors, CONPAC Contractors, and the Farmers Insurance Group.

He also received 10 donations of $500 from PACs for PacifiCorp, Chesa-peake Energy, and the Wyoming Education Association, among others.

Lobbyist Jody Levin gave $500 to Emerich. Levin is public sector chair ofWyoming’s chapter of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC),while Emerich is the Wyoming senate chair for ALEC.

Hutchings received three donations of $1,000. They came from her hus-band Thomas Hutchings, the socially conservative WyWatch PAC, andSusan Gore, heiress and founder of the Wyoming Liberty Group.

Rep. Hutchings also rolled over $2,698 in funds from her Hutchingsfor House campaign committee that financed her successful 2010 runfor office.

The second highest fundraiser for Wyoming Senate is incumbent Sen.Drew Perkins (R-Casper) who is facing a challenge from Casper landmanBob Ide.

Perkins raised $16,489 to Ide’s $4,615. Thirteen PACs contributed a totalof $6,500 to Perkins, with the rest of his money coming from 25 individuals.

House racesMinority floor Leader Rep. Mary Throne (D-Cheyenne) had the top-

funded campaign for House, raising $16,800 from 20 donors.Throne loaned more than half of that money — $10,000 — to her own

campaign. Donations from 16 PACs, three individuals, and the LaramieCounty Democratic Party Central Committee made up the rest of her funds.

Throne faces no challenger in the Democratic primary, but will go upagainst Republican Phil Regeski in the general election.

The second highest fundraiser among House candidates is citizen lobby-ist Cheri Steinmetz (R) of Lingle, who raised $15,917. Steinmetz is a sociallyconservative property rights advocate who has been active in several grass-roots groups. She took no money from PACs, and got significant supportfrom more than 60 donors who gave $100 or less. One of her $1,000 donorswas Sen. Curt Meier (R-LaGrange), the very man she ran against in the 2010election.

This year Steinmetz is going up against House Education CommitteeChair Rep. Matt Teeters (R-Lingle) who raised just $1,850 before the pri-mary. Teeters co-sponsored Senate File 104, and introduced the HouseAmendment that resulted in the banning the State School Board from con-sidering the Next Generation Science Standards.

The third highest fundraiser in the House primaries is former legislatorand Joint Appropriations Committee chair Tom Jones of Cheyenne, whoraised $14,400. Jones is unusual for being a non-incumbent who receivedsupport from PACs, bringing in a total of $3,950 from 12 groups. Jones isrunning against Theodore “Jim” Blackburn in the primary, who has raised$3,120.

In terms of dollars, the most evenly matched race in the House this yearpits Rep. Tom Lockhart (R-Casper) against radio broadcaster Chuck Gray.

Lockhart raised $12,271, with nearly 75 percent of the money comingfrom individuals and Wyoming PACs, and just $359 dollars coming fromimmediate family/personal donations.

Gray raised $11,971, self-financing $9,000 of his campaign.

Late filersA number of candidates for office didn’t file their per-primary campaign

finance reports by the deadline on August 12. These included a dozen in-cumbents, many of whom filed the following day.

As of Monday, August 18, the Wyoming Secretary of State elections web-site showed it had still not received reports from incumbents Sen. PaulBarnard (R-Evanston), Sen. Curt Meier (R-LaGrange), and Rep. StephenWatt (R-Rock Springs).

Well-known Tea Party challenger Bob Berry, who is running against Rep.David Northrup (R-Cody), also had not filed his report as of August 18.

tents May Have Shifted lives in what Iwould call the wide and widening bor-derland between fiction and nonfic-tion. Like many writers, I am madeuncomfortable by what has become,only in recent years, a policing of theline between the two genres as if mostnovels and memoirs don’t exist some-where in that grey area. Language can-not represent reality precisely, we allknow that, and yet [look at the] JamesFrey – Oprah [confrontation], etc. I amin the business of taking things thathappen in my life and shaping theminto story… that is my job. It is fine withme, since I occasionally take small lib-erties with the truth for the sake of formand structure, to call that fiction, butthis is my story, from any kind of angleyou want to look, so to call myselfMelinda seemed absurd. Mostly, I calledmyself Pam because I wanted to enterthis conversation we are having at thismoment in literature… the “perhaps weare focused on the wrong kind of truth”moment. Perhaps reality TV (whicheveryone knows is not reality) has madeus stupid. I don’t know why we are try-ing to deny language, its inescapablefluidity.PJH:Why do you think nomadic

lifestyles appeal to a broad swath ofpeople?Houston: This is a question I have

never been asked before, but I imagineyou have a lot of nomadic types up therein Jackson. I honestly don’t know why,but I can tell you why it appeals to me.Nothing has ever or likely will ever getme as excited as a brand new landscape.I am not happy unless I have one planeticket in my hand and another in my un-derwear drawer. I am an experience hog,I suppose, and the more varied the ex-periences the better. I guess I would askthe question the other way: Why doesstaying still appeal to so many peoplewhen we only have one life to live? Whydoesn’t everybody want the richnessthat comes with living in and visiting asmany places as possible? PJH:What are some lessons traveling

has taught you concerning yourself, re-lationships, other people/cultures andthe world?Houston: I can’t really answer this

question because Contents May HaveShifted is exactly my answer (and itwould take too long). Contents is a com-pilation of the most important lessonstraveling has taught me about myself,relationships, other people/cultures andthe world. PJH:How have your experiences living

in the American West shaped your writing?Houston: Moving to the American

West is what made me a writer. I playedat writing as a kid in New Jersey andPennsylvania, and played a little harderat it in college in Ohio. But when I cameWest after college the landscape justopened me up in ways I would havenever thought possible. I have alwaysbeen a writer who gets inspired first bylandscape, and next by the things thatgo on in that landscape. The West, theColorado plateau, the Rockies, every-thing I would call the Real West wasricher than I ever dreamed on bothcounts. PJH: Discuss one of your favorite mo-

ments in the book.Houston: Hmm. My first reaction to

this question is to feel like I ought not tohave favorite moments, or if I do have

them, I ought not to say so. But if I sitand ponder it for a while, I do have mo-ments that I especially like to read aloudbecause it puts me back in that place orwith that person. I don’t have a copy ofthe book with me at the moment, but itseems like all the scenes that have Pam’sfriend, Fenton, in them, especially theone that ends with the line, “The grape-fruits from the tree in his yard are thesweetest in the world.” He’s a dearfriend and I never get to see him enough… so that is like having a quick visit. PJH: How does Contents differ from

you other work? Houston: I’m not sure that it does dif-

fer too much. In fact, I think of “Con-tents” as a kind of grown up “CowboysAre My Weakness.” They have metricallyidentical titles on purpose. “ContentsMay Have Shifted,” “Cowboys Are MyWeakness” … three troches.

I think the ideas in this book have got-ten more complicated than in my previ-ous books because the world has gottenmore complicated and so has my brain.Also, I really let form lead the way thistime, which was pure pleasure.

When I thought about how I wantedthis book to be different from the others,what I said to myself is that I wanted thelanguage to work harder than it ever hadbefore. I mentioned above my love ofpoetry, and I wanted a similar compres-sion to what the poets I love achieve.

So, after the manuscript was all fin-ished and I had been through it 40 or 50times and got it pretty much the way Iwanted it, I invented a strategy forsqueezing a few more words out of it.

Every time there was a word or two atthe end of a paragraph that spilled overto the next line, I found a way to com-press the language of the paragraph sothat it got pulled “up” to the line above.My book is in 144 short sections, so I didthe same thing if a sentence or two at theend of a section was “widowed” onto ablank page. You can see how this be-comes a self-perpetuating process. If Ipulled up a three sentence-widow fromthe end of a section, and then pulled upword-widows from every paragraphwithin that section, I might create, by thetime I was finished, new widows to pullup at the section’s end. I knew, of course,that the layout of my Microsoft Wordmanuscript would bear no resemblanceto the typeset book. This was simply away to say to each sentence, ‘I know youthink you’re as tight as you can get, nowlet’s tighten you up just a little bit more.’It took four months and I wound up los-ing 17 pages, a couple of words at a time,and I can say without a doubt it was timewell spent. PJH:What do you find most difficult

about writing? Most gratifying?Houston: The most difficult thing

about writing is hurting people, and,more accurately, making the endless de-cisions about what is mine to tell, whatis not mine to tell, and when to make adecision in favor of the relationship andwhen to make a decision in favor of thepiece of writing.

The most gratifying? The great BarryLopez says we are pattern makers, and ifour patterns are beautiful and full ofgrace they will be able to bring a personfor whom the world has become brokenand disorganized up off his knees andback to life. I borrowed that line (cred-ited of course) for Contents May HaveShifted. That is the most gratifying thingabout writing.

Drawing on mastery of all of the toolsthat make funk music what it is, Dump-staphunk is a self-assured, borderline su-pergroup that is at least supercharged.The term supergroup has been worn todilution when considering some pastprojects, though Dumpstaphunk doesnot fall into the disappointing side ofputting a batch of seasoned players to-gether. The musically pedigreed quintet in-

cludes Ivan and Ian Neville, the sons of

Aaron and Art Neville respectively. Ivanhas performed with a slew of stars in-cluding Rufus and Keith Richards, whileIan cut his teeth in the Neville BrothersBand. D-phunk drummer/vocalist NikkiGlaspie backed Beyonce in the earlyyears, while the double-bass player at-tack (yes, two basses!) of Tony Hall andNick Daniels III bring plenty of soulwhile adding plenty of junk to the trunk.The bottom line is this: the idea of aheavy, pulsing Dumpsta comes throughloud and clear in the beats and grooves—realized from generations of the Neville

spirit.For the 2013 album Dirty Word, the

spontaneous live band was joined by stu-dio guests Trombone Shorty, Flea of RedHot Chili Peppers, Ani Difranco, and ArtNeville, among others. The outcome wasa modern edge to the vintage funk of Slyand the Family Stone and ParliamentFunkadelic, a style that has spread itswings beyond New Orleans while incor-porating its undercurrents – gospel,blues, second-line and straight up rock. “We just hope to spread the good word

through funk,” said Glaspie. “If we can

The band has flownunder the radar for much of the summer, unshackling from thewoodshed for this August run of shows, which included anopening slot at last week’s final Music on Main, another greatsupport slot this week at Concert on the Commons this Sundaywith Dumpstaphunk, as well as the band’s lone headlining showof the summer – a collaborative public party with Cycle GreaterYellowstone at the Mangy Moose this Saturday. “Taylor [Upton] and I are continuing to write and hone more

refined songs and arrangements which we can’t wait to bringlife into over the next year,” said lead guitarist/harmony singerLeif Routman. “We really are a band that loves to improvise,and that shines in our live setting. We also include a huge vari-ety of covers from genres like hip-hop to 80s metal to jazz-fu-sion, not to mention trying out new unrecorded originals. Andwe like to make people dance!”BMJ released its studio debut in 2013, Prepared for Nasty

Weather, which was voted Best Original Album by Planet Jack-son Hole readers.Black Mother Jones, 9:30 p.m. on Saturday at the Mangy

At a time when Hollywood was adhering to a safe blueprint ofcookie cutter endings and straightforward cinematography, arenegade film style was surfacing in France.Employing unconventional narrative methods, French New

Wave emerged in the late 1950s and its far-reaching influencecan still be seen in films today. If you’ve ever watched a movieby Quentin Tarantino, Martin Scorcese or Bernando Bertolucci,you are already acquainted with French New Wave’s enduringinfluence.This week, Teton County Library launches a French New

Wave film series that will highlight this profoundly influentialfilm genre. The series will begin with The 400 Blows by FrancoisTruffaut.Local filmmaker and American Film Institute alumna Spark

Malachowski runs the TCL movie night program. She saysFrench New Wave storytelling is wrought with gritty realism.“[French New Wave filmmakers] were interested in communicat-ing a more real view of the world – verging on a documentarypoint of view rather than the very stylized films of that time,”Malachowski said.

Entwining avant-garde filming and editing techniques withthemes exploring existential dilemmas and social and politicalconflict, French New Wave films offer depth and engagement toits viewers who are often left to ponder an unresolved ending.

The 400 Blows, which tells the story of a troubled young boynamed Antoine, uncovers valuable insight into director Truf-faut’s own rocky childhood, Malachowski explained. “AntoineDoinel has been called Truffaut’s ‘alter ego.’ Many of the eventsin the film are loosely based on Truffaut’s childhood, such as hisdifficulty in school, truancy, sneaking into movie theaters, etc. …Doinel lives in a harsh world but as Truffaut’s alter ego, the audi-ence senses that underneath Doinel’s pain is a toughness and re-silience that helps him survive and eventually prevail.”Films screening in upcoming weeks include Masculin-Femi-

nin, which depicts a young man’s struggle to readjust to societyafter a stint in the French army, all while his girlfriend takes astab at pop stardom. Then Cleo from 5 to 7 takes us on a strollthrough Paris with a French singer awaiting the results of a testthat threatens drastic consequences.

The 400 Blows screens at 6 p.m., Thursday at Ordway Audito-rium in Teton County Library. Malachowski will lead a discus-sion after each screening. www.tclib.org.

By Meg Daly

You were kicked out of your apartmentbecause the landlord wouldn’t wait theextra few days for the rent check. Yoursmall children are cold and hungry. Nightsare getting colder, and you and your kidsare sleeping in your car. Where do you turnfor help in Jackson Hole?This Saturday, Off Square Theatre tells

stories from the Community ResourceCenter, the go-to place for residents inhousing and financial crisis. The two or-ganizations teamed up to create a play thatwould convey the everyday realities atCRC. Off Square commissioned three pro-fessional writers to interview CRC staff andclients. The result is Mercy, an original playthat weaves together stories collected fromthe writers. “It was paramount to us to preserve the

privacy of the clients,” said Caryn Flana-gan, the lead writer and director of theplay. “CRC staff reached out directly to in-dividuals they thought would be interestedin sharing their stories, and then we wereput in touch with the clients once they’dagreed to be interviewed.”

As a magazine writer, Jayme Feary knewhow to turn a person’s experiences into anarrative. But as a self-proclaimed “noviceplaywright,” he needed to show all the im-portant aspects of several families’ stories. “I did that by establishing one set of

characters based on actual people, andthen attributed scenes to them that vari-ous people experienced,” he said. “I in-vented almost nothing and instead createda sort of composite of experiences.”The third writer for the project, Robin

Moore, chose to tell stories of the CRC staff.“I envisioned the staff as a Greek chorus

of bodhisattvas experiencing the pain andsuffering of their clients, being with themthrough it but not in it,” Moore said.Saturday’s 7 p.m. performance of Mercy

is a one-night only event, a staged readingon the Center Theater featuring more than20 local performers and followed by a re-ception in the theater lobby. The produc-tion will also feature original music byMadelaine Germain inspired by tran-scripts of the original interviews. “The writers focused on three areas of

need: housing, medical, and unemploy-ment,” Flanagan said. “I edited the indi-

vidual writings together to create the play.”Feary said the interviews were at times

emotionally challenging. But he cameaway with a hopeful perspective. “Theoverriding impression that stayed with mewas the determination with which almostevery person approached his or her situa-tion,” he said. “Despite lots of terrible mo-ments, they felt hopeful. They never quit,never gave up, even when facing death.I’ve seldom witnessed such courage.”The CRC staff similarly inspired Moore.“These women from the CRC are so un-

derstated,” Moore said. “They take on somuch so quietly. I’ve watched Amy foryears putting together that food cupboard,such a humble labor of love that has actu-ally changed lives. I’ve seen Smokey in thetrenches fighting fiercely to give voices topeople who are overlooked and outcast.And Carmina, she’s a rock!”Flanagan said that clients’ stories are de-

liberately layered together, so that no indi-viduals feel exposed. “People will relate,”she said, “And they may even feel like,‘Hey, that’s my story.’ But if they do, it’s be-cause these stories are universal in ourcommunity.”

Play publicizes local plight

PR CHOICE

I field questions almost every day from pa-tients, friends and people I meet concerning or-ganic versus conventional foods. Quite oftenthese queries are asked with a sense of dread,since people usually assume that they’re goingto have to stop eating their favorite foods andstart spending a lot more money on food.Many of those same friends and patients are

thoroughly confused by media coverage and on-line research on the topic. In the past year alone,we’ve seen two major studies on organic food.The first concluded that there are no significantnutritional differences between organic andconventional, the second stated that there are.It’s enough to make you say, “the hell with it!”and reach for the Pop-Tarts.Well I’m here to tell you – don’t do it. I’m a naturopathic physician, so it probably

won’t surprise you to hear me say that sourcing,preparing (and yes, paying for), organic foodprovides benefits that are well worth your effort.Studies and media coverage that focus on

comparative nutritional levels miss a key bene-fit. A highly organic diet is also desirable forwhat you don’t get: artificial hormones, chemi-cal additives and especially, pesticides.Pesticides are immensely helpful in growing

food on an industrial scale, provided you’re will-ing to overlook the health risks that come withexposure. Toxic to more than just insects that eatcrops, pesticides can cause cancer, reproductiveissues/infertility and behavioral disorders. A2010 study conducted by University of Montrealand Harvard found that pesticide residues foundon fruits and vegetables may double a child’srisk of ADHD.Here in Jackson, organic options keep grow-

ing. Smith’s and Albertsons are stocking moreand more inventory, Whole Grocer just ex-panded and a Lucky’s Market is slated to moveinto the old Whole Grocer space. In addition,you can buy weekly deliveries of organic vegeta-bles from farms in Teton Valley, as well as pork,beef and lamb raised on local, organic farms.This growth reflects national trends: In 1996 theU.S. spent 3.5 billion on organic products. In2013 it was 35.1 billion, up 11.5 percent from the

year before, according to the Organic Trade As-sociation.So, about the cost. It’s true that organic food

costs significantly more. If your budget is tight,start by increasing your organic food graduallyand definitely switch to organic for the followingproducts. These are the “dirty dozen” – theproducts that, in non-organic form, typicallyhave the highest pesticide load.

ApplesStrawberriesGrapesCeleryPeachesSpinachBell peppersNectarines (imported)CucumbersCherry tomatoesSnap peas (imported)Potatoes

In addition, washing non-organic vegetablesin a three parts vinegar and one part water solu-tion greatly helps eliminate pesticides.Sourcing an organic diet is a commitment,

but one that provides great benefits – you willbe healthier and feel, look and perform better.Not to mention you’ll be doing your part to en-sure fewer toxic chemicals are making it intothe environment.
