Hobbit: Bunraku styleBy KAREN BOSSICK

You’re being asked to take an adventure—an adven-ture into a fantastical

world of trolls and dragons—as nexStage Theatre Productions presents the beloved children’s classic, “The Hobbit.”

The production, which starts Friday, will include a combina-tion of human actors, larger-than-life masks, and giant rod puppets and wooden body puppets based on the Bunraku style of puppetry from Japan.

“This is not a story of some-one going to the grocery store in a world we understand. It’s a world of trolls and dragons set

in a magical Middle Earth,” said director Bruce Hostetler. “We’re creating a journey without leaving the room in which we start. We’re not trying to con-vince people that the dragon in our play is real. We’re asking audiences to meet us halfway.”

The nexStage Theatre seized the opportunity to produce the play after Hostetler, who directs the annual Sun Val-ley Shakespeare Festival, showed directors pictures of the production he’d done with Northwest Children’s Theater and School in Portland, Ore.

“The Hobbit” fit with the theater’s new mission to offer a children’s play, an adult play,

a Shakespearean play and a Christmas play each season.

Mariah Davis, a junior at Wood River High School, has big hopes

for a life in the big city. A singer and dancer, she hopes some day to end up at The Juilliard School to pursue her lifelong dream. “I daydream what it’d be like to have a little studio apartment and to live in the city. I don’t even care if I’m poor.”

In the meantime, she has her senior year ahead of her at Wood River High School. Born in Reno, Nevada, her parents moved here when she was five years to escape the high crime rate there. Since then, she has attended Bellevue and Hailey Elementary, Wood River Middle School and now the high school. “I love it here,” she said. “It can be isolated, but I think it’s a great place to grow up in and flourish. People complain about it, but then you think that people travel from Europe and all over the world to get here and to build their second homes here.” She does find one troubling aspect to the community. “I’m a real stickler about drugs and alcohol, and sometimes it’s hard to fit in with other kids socially, but you find your own group and make it work.”

Being in the school choir, Mariah has gotten a chance to see San Francisco, San Diego and Anaheim, as well as travel-ing to the Oregon coast, Utah, Hawaii and Boston for the Boston Marathon. “Boston was awesome and I’d love to travel to New York. I love cities and I’m definitely more attracted to the East Coast. You have to get used to the cities and be more street smart, like in riding the subways. You have to know when to talk and probably not be so friendly. Here everyone knows each other and you get used to the routine. But sometimes it makes me want to grow up faster. I have my whole life to travel, so right now I might as well stay put.”

For college, Mariah’s whole focus is on Juilliard, but she would be interested in any art school on the East Coast. “Juilliard is superb and a great environment to get started in. All that counts is my singing and dancing, so things like math and my SATs are not as important. I’m just real excited

and living in New York City would be the

greatest. I’d have to get used to it, but I know some people there so there would be a support base for me.”In the meantime,

Mariah keeps her focus on dancing and

singing. “I love to dance and started when I was eleven years old. My mom worked for a professional dance company and I got to hang out and saw The Nutcracker. I got to see the older girls perform and it was so inspiring to me.” Today, she splits her time between modern, ballet and hip-hop. “Hip-hop is the most exciting to do. It’s a show-off dance. There are no tutus and you get the chance to be funny and arrogant. Dancing is just the most freeing thing you can do. It’s also a great coping mecha-nism. It’s so much better than drugs and alcohol. It’s also so exciting and you want to show it to everyone.”

Mariah also splits her time with singing and is in the school choir and the women’s choir, Colla Voce. She has been performing since sixth grade. “When I was little I used to sing all the time and it has always calmed me down. I love being on stage, and having a conver-sation in song is so reward-ing. But it’s also really nerve wracking because in dance, if you make a mistake, you can incorporate it into your move-ments, but if you hit a bad note, everyone knows it.”

In her free time, there is yoga and she is learning to be a massage therapist. There is also time for hanging out with friends and her love of snowboarding. A full life for a creative and ambitious young woman.

Davis dreams bigSinger and dancer, Mariah Davis hopes that some day she’ll end up at The Julliard School. CoURTESY PHoTo

Never the best at fighting and drama, Ed unwisely says to Betty, ‘ok, what’s eating you this time?’ 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.

The Punch line BCRD invites pass holders to have a beer on SaturdayThe sweat

beads are

back on Norm Clark’s forehead. And he likes it that way.

Clark has been sweating it up skiing along the Harri-man Trail this past week. And he says that’s far better than freezing to death as he did when he and Ketchum skier Del Pletcher competed in the 2010 World Masters Nordic competitions in Falun, Sweden.

There it was 20 below with a 20-mile headwind.

“I never did get warm,” said Clark, who came away with two silver medals and one bronze.

Clark said he took great pride in telling the Swedish hosts, who claim to occupy the birthplace of Nordic skiing much to Norway’s consterna-tion, about the pristine cor-duroy that Sun Valley boasts more than five months of the year.

“They didn’t believe me,” he said.

We’re wrapping up Month Five on that corduroy right now and the trails north of Ketchum are as good as ever. There wasn’t a whole lot of softening this past week. And even a few sun spots on the trails emanating from SNRA were covered up by Monday and Tuesday’s snow.

The Blaine County Recre-ation District is inviting pass holders to have a beer on them on Saturday.

Celebrate the end of the season at Galena Lodge by par-ticipating in or cheering on the Ride, Stride, Glide bike, run and ski relay at 9:30 a.m (call 726-4010 for more informa-tion). Eat lunch. And show your season pass to receive one free

beer compliments of BCRD and Galena Lodge.

There’ll be a drawing for a BCRD season pass and other prizes for those who turn in their 200K Challenge tally sheets, as well.

Meanwhile the Easter Bunny has announced he plans to drop in at Galena on Sunday for an egg hunt at 11:30 a.m. Enjoy a brunch there from 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. that day.

Bald Mountain also benefit-ted from this week’s snow-storm which, believe it or not, was one of the biggest we had all winter.

You can enjoy that late sea-son snow with late season lift rates. Daily lift ticket prices on Baldy are now $56 for adults and $34 for children under 13 and seniors 65 and over.

Dollar Mountain passes are $30 for adults and $25 for chil-dren and seniors. This week-end will be your last chance to ride Dollar Mountain’s new terrain park, what with Dol-lar Mountain closing for the season at the end of the day on Sunday.

Bald Mountain will stay open through April 18.

While on Baldy, don’t forget the weekend barbecue at Lookout Restaurant, weather permitting. Barbecued burgers and chicken and spring skiing can’t be beat.

As you might expect, the wet snow and winds have increased avalanche danger in the back-country once again. Unfortu-nately, the avalanche forecast-ers ended their avalanche advisories for the season on Sunday—and lead forecaster Janet Kellam has ended her forecasts for good, retiring after 14 seasons of waking up at 4 and 5 in the morning.

Janet was a driving force behind avalanche education not just in the Sun Valley area but nationally as the president of the board of the American Avalanche Association. Now she’ll get her advisories like the rest of us—via the phone line or over the Internet.

Kelly Allison looked like the epit-ome of spring Sunday when she showed up at the Spring Loppett at Galena.

Sam Young sported some sassy glasses for Sunday’s Spring Lop-pett.

SNRA needs volunteersLandmark Volunteers seeks ex-

ceptional high school students for meaningful conservation work in the magnificent Sawtooth National Recreation Area near Stanley this summer. Landmark is a non-profit organization providing summer community service opportunities for students who have completed their ninth, 10th or 11th grades. The two-week program will be held in mid-July.

Depending on the weather and the needs of U.S. Forest Service staff, students may spend a few days camping in the backcountry, cutting new hiking trails, restoring areas in recreation sites, building the area’s classic log fences, and cleaning campsites. There will be plenty of time at the end of the day for swimming in the river, fish-ing, and hiking. An experienced adult team leader will supervise the group at all times and will live with the students in log-style guest houses in Stanley.

This is a great opportunity for motivated team players who are interested in service learning, en-joy the out of doors and conserva-tion, and want to enhance their resumé or college application. The tax-deductible contribution for the program is $350, if application is received by April 1, and $450 for those postmarked after April 1. Scholarships available.

Info: contact Landmark Volun-teers Idaho Site Administrator Kris-tin Fletcher, 208-721-2583.

Dawn on the Via Dolorosa, East Jerusalem PHoTo: BALI SZABo/TWP

‘Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir will celebrate the Mountain Mother. And every songbird shout awhile for her.’ - Robert Graves

Momentous times, these. There’s March Mad-

ness! What’s more important than that? ‘The Cosmos’, you say? Surely you jest. We just passed the Vernal Equinox—first day of spring, the resur-rection of our gardens—a time to reflect on the events or the symbolism of Mount Calgary as well. It is the season of Primav-era, the triumph of Venus/Aph-rodite, of birds and the bees. It all seems to harmonize as a celebration of renewal, be it Christian or secular, St. Francis or Venus in her scallop shell.

Alas, there’s conflict every-where. Don Quixote couldn’t come to terms with the modern world and so returned to his sheep, to a pastoral dream. We increasingly seek the ‘natu-ral’ in a hopelessly poisoned world (the Habitat). The pagan, the primal, the primitive, the mythological means the love of trees and the seasonal flux of life. If spring is awakening and maturation, there’s no need for supernatural grace and miraculous redemption. Love is an end-glory in itself and every one of us is the author of our own fulfillment. Ah, but it’s Easter, and such heresy is in conflict with resurrection.

These philosophical mus-ings, played out in the arts of the last few millennia, are mere entertainment compared to the bloody struggle that seems to be the fate of the Holy Land. I had a chance to visit Israel as a photojournalist in the spring of

1988, during the first Palestinian intifadah

(rebellion). My job was to go every-where and por-tray the land and its people. And so I did, three weeks,

2000 miles, from dawn to night. I had no dog in this fight, so it was easy to be at ease in a Ramallah

bazaar or a Kibbutz in the Golan.

The greatest problem for a journalist in places like this—i.e., the world—are the authori-ties; in this case, the Israeli Army Rebel insurgents. They love the camera and the note-book because they want to get their message out. The powers that be hate those who bear witness and do what they can to prevent the ‘CNN moment.’ It’s ever thus. There were mili-tary checkpoints in and out of every town. There was military in the streets. My rental car had Israeli plates, a target. Still, I parked, bought strawberries and felafel from local vendors, and talked to them. The car was never harmed.

Places with a lot of history exude a feeling, an aura. Gali-lee. Meggido. Judea. Samaria. Masada. Nazareth’s Church of the Annunciation, Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre. I felt it every day. Turbulence resonates, and so does spiri-tual energy. Yellowstone is a display of geothermal energy, a mirror of the world seeded with historical ‘hot spots,’ from Tibet to Chaco Canyon. A visit is always a priviledge, a ghostly touch of worlds past.

An eternity of struggle, Jerusalem, Holy Land

briefsCody: free acupuncture for military and family

A free community-style acu-puncture clinic is coming to the Wood River Valley for veterans, ac-tive-duty military and their family members. This community service is offered by acupuncturist Rose-mary Cody. Cody has completed training with Acupuncturists With-out Borders (AWB) in their veter-ans’ program, now called Military Stress Recovery Project (MSRP). Focus of treatment is on reversing stress-related symptoms: improv-ing mental clarity, boosting energy, improving sleep, reducing anxiety and irritability, and alleviating hy-pervigilance, flashbacks and night-mares.

Location: Cody Acupuncture Clinic, 12 E. Walnut St., Hailey, Tuesday evenings beginning April 6, 2010, 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.

The role of surveillanceDo you feel safer now than you

did 10 years ago? The Sun Valley Center for the

Arts has invited former Secretary of the Navy John Lehman to share his candid perspectives on the impor-tance of security and the role that surveillance plays in our post-9/11 world. The lecture is scheduled for Thursday, April 1 at 7 p.m. at The Center, Ketchum.

“John Lehman has given more thought to questions of national security and effective methods of surveillance than just about any-one else in this country,” says Britt Udesen, The Center’s director of education and humanities. “I en-courage everyone to attend this lecture.”

Dr. Lehman served as a mem-ber of the 9/11 Commission in 2003–2004. During the Reagan administration, Lehman served for six years as Secretary of the Navy. He was a staff member to Dr. Henry Kissinger on the National Security Council and served as delegate to the Force Reductions Negotiations in Vienna and as deputy director of the U.S. Arms Control and Disar-mament Agency.

The lecture is part of The Cen-ter’s multidisciplinary project, I Spy: Surveillance and Security, which takes an in-depth look at government and corporate “spy-ing” and how to balance civil rights against our need for security.

The choices we make about which types of fish to eat dramatically

affect the health of our rivers and oceans. Many fish popu-lations are shrinking due to overfishing. This has given rise to seafood “farming.” Perhaps the most popular type of fish farming is for Atlantic salmon. Salmon are farmed in pens in protected waters.

The high density of the fish population produces unnatural amounts of waste, requiring the use of antibiotics to keep disease from spreading and the salmon are fed pellets which contain chemicals to dye their meat pink. Without this, the flesh of farmed salmon would be white. Studies found that the fishmeal fed to farmed salmon is highly contaminated with PCBs (highly toxic com-pounds). Farmed salmon are also “fatter”; farmed salmon generally contain more fat than

wild salmon. PCBs are stored in fat and remain there for an extended period of time, so farmed salmon contain more PCBs than wild salmon. When the pens break and these farmed salmon breed with wild salmon, the genetic ‘homing system’ which brings the fish back to its home river is dis-rupted. In all, salmon farming delivers an inferior product to our tables; it releases concen-trated fish waste that pollutes the ocean and taints the natu-ral salmon gene pool. Make an educated purchase—buy wild salmon. If wild Alaskan salmon is too pricey for your food budget, you can buy canned sockeye (red) salmon in the supermarket; it’s all wild. It will give you the same omega-3 fatty acids found in fresh or frozen Alaskan wild salmon. For more information go to www.healthcastle.com/farmed-salmon.shtml

The Sun Valley Center for the Arts ended its Winter Concert Series Friday

night on a jazzy note—that of the string quartet Sweet Plantain.

There was no Bach or Beethoven, however, despite the violins and viola.

Instead, there was Cole Porter, Cuban rhythms and—egads—hip-hop.

“When I was in high school, I had the guilty pleasure of lis-

tening to hip-hop while study-ing classical,” David Gotay told the audience at the Church of the Big Wood. “I knew classical music was good because my teachers told me it was. But hip hop….”

The foursome, who spent the day in the schools teaching kids about their music did the same for the adult audience that evening, teaching them about eclectic rhythms, how music inspired certain dances and more.

Afterwards, Gotay said, “We can’t wait to ski Bald Moun-tain.”

The Center’s next sched-uled performance—to date, at least—is the Carole King/James Taylor Troubadour Reunion on July 12. Those tickets go on sale to members of The Center and the Alliance for the Wild Rockies at 10 a.m. Friday at www.sunvalleycenter.org, www.wildrockiesalliance.org or by phone at 1-866-811-4111.

At 14, Vernon Scott ended a vacation to Sun Valley by

unwrapping a large mysterious package that Alfred Hitch-cock had sent him.

Now, decades later, Scott is about to unwrap some of the secrets behind the Master of Suspense for Sun Valley audiences.

Every Tuesday during April Scott and The Community Library will show a Hitchcock movie on the big screen—as it was meant to be seen. Scott will offer some observations and tips on what to look for preceding each movie and then field questions afterwards.

Admission to the “Alfred in April” film fest is free.

“The kinds of movies they make now are pretty unsatis-fying. They cost so much to make and they have to make sure they play to every culture so they become generic movies without much personality,” said Scott. “I’d like to show more old films, maybe get some mini-film festivals going, to show people the magic of film from Hollywood’s Golden Age when films were made by people who really loved mov-ies, not by lawyers.”

Scott, as librarian Caro-line Clawson points out, is a consummate film buff. The son of an actress and a newspaperman who served as the entertainment editor for United Press International for 40 years, he grew up seeing such stars as Frank Sinatra and John Wayne parade through his house.

Scott himself has been a screenwriter for films, TV mov-ies, kid’s movies and reality shows in Los Angeles for more years than he cares to count. He recently started writing a blog about film and cinema from his home near Ketchum’s Big Wood Golf Course where he, his wife Tira and 12- and 6-year-old sons Oliver and Preston recently moved.

“My family has been coming here since 1970. My mother (Americana artist Jane Wooster Scott) still has a place here and I met my wife here 25 years ago when she was a clerk at Ketchum Dry Goods,” said Scott.

Scott came of age in Holly-wood where he used to sneak on the lot of Universal Studios in his school uniform—a wool coat and tie. Universal Stu-dios employees got so used to seeing him that they gave him little jobs running errands, get-ting coffee and even rehearsing lines with actors.

It just so happened that Scott arrived on the lot every afternoon as Alfred Hitchcock showed up.

Hitchcock was older by then and not doing much film mak-ing, but he still put in an ap-pearance at his office each day.

“He was such an intriguing man. He had become this char-acter he played for the public—a portly guy with a funny voice. One day I jotted down a letter to him asking for his auto-graph and I went to slip it un-

der

his door be-

cause I was too nervous to ask him in person. Just as I got there, the door flew open and I gave it to his secretary and ran off.”

Scott forgot about his re-quest while he and his family spent the summer in Sun Val-ley. They returned to Los Ange-les to find a large mysterious package. In it was a caricature of himself that Hitchcock had drawn and signed for the boy.

Scott will bring his 12-year-old son with him to the film showings, hoping his son is as fascinated by Hitchcock’s films as he was at his age.

“His films have remained remarkably fresh—not really scary, but thrilling,” he said. “He honed these fantastic plots and the actors, like Grace Kelly and Janet Leigh, were wonder-ful. And it’s thrilling to watch Hitchcock with an audience because they respond so well.”

the schedule:Tuesday, April 6, 6 p.m.Rear WindowWheelchair-bound photojournalist L.B. Jeffries (James Stewart) and his beautiful fiancée Lisa (Grace Kelly) spy on their neighbors and then solve a brutal murder no one else believes occurred.Tuesday, April 13, 6 p.m.North by NorthwestFrom Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant) being chased by the crop-dusting biplane, to the climax atop the fac-es of Mount Rushmore, this Hitch-cock classic never lets up. one of Hitchcock’s personal favorites, the film combines a tense, harrowing pace with the fear of calamity lurk-ing behind every door—truly the work of a master.Tuesday, April 20, 6 p.m.Strangers on a TrainHitchcock’s favorite “doubles” theme is thoroughly explored in this story of two men who meet on a train and whose destinies become forever linked. Bruno and Guy both want someone dead. Bruno pro-poses that they exchange murders to eliminate motive and suspicion. The two become trapped in a web of guilty secrets that can only be escaped by death.Tuesday, April 27, 6 p.m.PsychoCertainly Hitchcock’s most unre-lenting exercise in terror, Psycho remains one of the most terrifying films of all time. Often imitated, but never equaled, Psycho’s tale of a strange young man and his pos-sessive mother feature the sinister Bates Motel, and the creepy house that overlooks it.

There might be more behind that continuous head throb than what

you realize.As a physical therapist (PT),

I treat many people who suffer from headaches. Often these patients complain of ‘mi-graines’ and are unaware that the symptoms originate in the joints or tissues of the head, face and neck.

I first start my detective work with a thorough history. It’s important to know about prescription and over-the-coun-ter medication use, as several drugs are notorious for causing headaches.

Next, I’ll do a neurological screening exam to rule out serious red flags that would warrant a medical referral.

Then, after observing the person’s neck movement, I examine each joint of the spine beginning with the skull’s at-tachment to the first vertebrae. This allows me to identify limited motion at any level and then use a manual technique called joint mobilization to restore normal gliding.

So often the muscles of the neck can be tight or harbor what’s known as trigger points. These are tender ‘knots’ that can refer pain to the eye, ear and other areas of the head. I use various massage tech-niques to release these areas and teach patients the ap-propriate techniques to use at home.

Finally, I examine the jaw to rule out “TMD” as a source of headache. This disorder also commonly includes the follow-ing signs and symptoms:

- Tenderness of the jaw muscles.

- Dull aching pain in the ear, which can radiate to the face.

- Painful clicking or popping with opening or closing of the mouth.

- Limited opening of the mouth or locking of the jaw.

If the jaw is the culprit, I can mobilize the temporomandibu-lar joint, massage the facial muscles, and use ultrasound or other devices to decrease inflammation and promote tis-sue healing. It’s also important to teach exercises to restore normal jaw movement and function and educate patients about activities like gum chew-ing, nail biting, yawning and smoking which can make TMD worse if a person favors one side of the mouth for these activities.

Recurring or frequent head-aches rob your quality of life. You don’t have to suffer.

10 • theweeklypaper Success is steady progress toward one’s personal goals. Wednesday 3.31.10

eats & entertainment

The full moon in Libra, the sign of relationships, is a bonding oppor-tunity -- that is to say, once you get a few pieces of pressing business out of the way. What is standing between you and love? What will it take to see eye-to-eye with a part-ner? This full moon fosters honesty, reason and forgiveness, too, which will help break down the barriers. Wednesday, Venus sweetens the connection as she enters the sensual realm of Taurus.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may not be feeling a hundred percent like yourself this week. Then again, who you are is always changing. You have every right to make it up as you go. Once upon a time, your sign mate Charlie Chaplin, a great comic actor of the silent movie era, entered a Charlie Chaplin look-alike contest and won third place.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are trying to be as self-sufficient as possible. But if you have to depend on someone, embrace it. Chances are this person is better for having shared with you. Nothing and no one in the world can exist alone. Even the most independent entities have a relationship with the other things that exist.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Proj-ects at work are unfolding in a cer-tain way because of your influence. Ask yourself what difference you are making. What has happened that wouldn’t have if you were not there? Realizing your impact will help you get clear about your purpose. By Thursday, you’ll set a new and life-changing goal.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Complaining is a favorite pastime of many people, and you’ll find yourself among them this week. Resist chim-ing in, though. It’s easier for you to see what’s right about things. As you practice gratitude, you’ll have an influence. It will turn out that the problem is not all that bad and the solution is simple.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your work may seem like a means to an end -- just a way of paying the rent and putting food on the table. But it’s not just a job; it’s a calling. If this feels true, it’s time for you to remember how you got here and what your job really means. You have the potential to make a great contribution to the world through your work.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The first part of the week is filled with casual sharing and fun. Then you’ll surprise everyone by turning up the mystery and intrigue. Send short notes and have cryptic conversa-tions. Don’t let on where you’re going or when you’ll be back. Wear huge sunglasses, even indoors. It thrills someone to try to figure you out.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your prudence may have you wheeling and dealing, following sales or clip-ping coupons. You’ll enjoy knowing that you’re being a responsible stew-ard of your money. Just remember that the cost of things is not as im-portant as their value. You can afford to be luxurious and generous when it matters most.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When you appreciate beauty, you usually feel compelled to share your impressions with others so that they might be able to better appreciate the surroundings, too. Your observa-tions and passionate expressions of gratitude will make a positive differ-ence in the way others experience their environment.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ve been tempted and influenced more than usual lately, but it’s about to turn around. You’ll take back the reins of your life this week. You’re the one in charge here. And if you don’t feel like it, just pretend for a while -- that will work in your favor. By do-ing disciplined acts, you will become disciplined.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re accustomed to setting goals and achieving them. Then again,

some of your most interesting ac-complishments have come about because you took the hand you were dealt and worked it in the kind of crazy, resourceful, creative way that only you could pull off. You’ll get an-other such opportunity this week.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Confidence isn’t about showing off or proving that you can beat the oth-ers. It’s knowing who you are and trusting yourself to do what you think you can do. This week, you will build up your inner strength -- exercise it like a muscle. Self-belief is vital not only to your success, but to your happiness.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Someone will need what you have. You may be torn as to how much to give. It’s better to err on the side of charity. An Austrian baroness who happened to have been born in a castle and had an awful lot of worldly goods once said, “To have and not to give is often worse than to steal.” -- Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: You will celebrate your maturity this year and enjoy the well-earned fruits of your experience. April is a bonding time for special relationships. May brings a different kind of work. You’ll learn quickly and excel. Your mentor-ship of someone else will make you proud, as well as teach you some-thing valuable. July brings a windfall. You’ll be rewarded in August. Life-style upgrades are sorted out with loved ones in September. The best improvements you could make are within your means.

Kane says ‘The Last Station’ comparable to great theater

Why is it that the high-est compliment for a film is often that it

is compared to great theater? Such is the case with Michael Hoffman’s excellent new film, The Last Station. Largely, this is due to the incredible lead performances of Helen Mirren and Christopher Plummer. To-gether they take screen acting to new heights and, unfortu-nately, got lost in the Oscar shuffle.

The story revolves around

two romances, but at its heart is the fifty-year relationship between Leo Tolstoy (Plum-mer), the Russian novelist, and his wife, the Countess Sofya (Mirren). The year is 1919 and Tolstoy, now eighty, is nearing the end of his life. He has become a revered figure and the leader of a new religion, Tolstoy-ism, which preaches a social-ist order, vegetarianism and celibacy.

As the movement’s leader, the wonderful and evil Paul Giamatti wants Tolstoy to leave the rights to his works to the Russian people. To do so would mean to disinherit Mir-

ren and her thirteen children. The crux

of the story is to fight to keep this from happening. Using everything at her disposal, Mirren struggles

with Giamatti for Tolstoy’s

heart and mind. A wonderful subplot has

a young secretary (James McA-voy) sent by Giamatti to keep track of Mirren, but he soon falls in love and decides to abandon the goal of celibacy.

Mirren and Plummer are fan-tastic and their sparring takes on the stuff of legend. If you’re a fan of great acting, The Last Station is a must see.

Will Caldwell poses among his conga drums, art, and around the corner from the desk where he runs Will Caldwell Productions.

CoURTESY PHoTo: JULIE CALDWELL

Will Caldwell is an artist, musi-

cian, and, more recently, an en-trepreneur. Born with a restless soul, he chose early on to work for himself. “I had an architectural rendering service in high school. After that came stints in business school and Viet-nam which made me realize I was best as my own boss, not dealing with the personality quirks of others.”

While Will has always shown entrepreneurial traits of risk-taking, imagination, and for-ward thinking, he only recently formed Will Caldwell Produc-tions to coalesce his various efforts. The business grew from his decade of producing Ketch’em Alive (a summer con-cert series), the School of Rock (how to form a garage band), Jazz in the Park and, coming this June, the Rhythm and Ride Bike and Music Festival.

Like many entrepreneurs, Will’s success derives from rising to challenges that call to his talents, skills, and values. He first came to Ketchum to work toward an architect’s license but, seeing a growing demand for graphic artists, teamed up with a friend. They were soon hired to produce the first Sun Valley Magazine. A few years later, he met a west-ern artist recruited for a local residency. Will says, “I took one look at him and thought, ‘I can do that.’” He already had painting skills but confesses he was mostly enamored by the mystique of being a western painter.

Will left the magazine and, after some study with the visit-ing artist, headed to Hawaii as a modern-day Gauguin. He pioneered painting underwa-ter scenes and his reputation grew. So did gallery pressure for predictable landscapes of palm trees and waves. “I did six of those for one job and the day I was paid I was finished. It was not my concept of art,” he offers.

Will returned to Sun Valley and entered the booming field of western art with a series on Idaho’s frontier culture. “One day I realized we were painting a myth, rather than a real, primitive world,” he notes. “Having been to Africa, I headed back to paint native life as people were really living it.” In Kenya, Will painted an Africa series, followed by others from Israel, China, and Peru. In all

of these, Will says, “I was painting intact

ethnic cultures and places that were yet untouched by the modern world.”

Finally, with a wife and children

in his life, Will focused locally. He began work on an American Nostal-gia series, painting

the young, increas-ingly affluent, post-war

America of the 1950’s. Along the way, he reconnected with the conga drums, a love real-ized after his first Xavier Cugat album as a kid. Gradually, he slipped into public appear-ances with other local musi-cians and worked to perfect his skills. When the Sun Valley Ketchum Chamber put on the initial version of Ketchum Alive, Will’s own band was one of those playing on a Ketchum street.

The next year, Ketchum Alive was about to be scrapped when Will suggested the Chamber repackage the event and he took it on. Thus began the wildly successful Ketch’em Alive concerts with attendance of 600-800 people. Will’s other productions followed, includ-ing the upcoming “Rhythm and Ride Festival.”

This latest venture had been percolating. “I was imagining a weekend music festival with some strong secondary inter-est,” Will says. One athlete suggested bike activities and the weekend has now grown to include a Friday night concert, four bands on Saturday, vari-ous mountain and road biking events, a running race, and yoga activities. Will, respon-sible for the Saturday bands, is also chair of the 25-person coordinating committee. “The art market is down,” explains Will, “so I’ve reframed myself as the event producer I’ve been for a while. I like the change.” And so goes the entrepreneur-ial spirit!

flexology will celebrate their sev-enth year serving the Wood River Valley this Easter by announcing the closing of both the Ketchum (GOT PAIN?) Main Street office and the Hailey office. Then on April second, the reopening of the new combined office next to “Chic Nail Boutique” and behind L.L. Greens’ Hardware at 13 W. Bullion in Hai-ley.

“This is it. I’m so thankful to find just the office I need to bring my advanced reflexology training to its full potential. Especially in these sad economic times where my advanced reflexology techniques, combined with this office will allow me to produce a positive effect in very little time. This will reduce the cost to my clients for 63 different conditions believed to be improved by reflexology according to a Chi-nese study.

The unique thing about reflex-ology is that all 63 conditions are addressed at the same time, and for the same cost. This is how re-flexology works by default. My objective is to balance the whole body so that it is again working as a symbiotic system” asserts Mark Cook, one of 19 United States reflexologist awarded the inter-nationally recognized “ART” des-ignation assuring consumers the highest quality, state-of- the-art clinical reflexology.

And it didn’t hurt that the theater was able to rent the costumes and puppets and purchase the rights to the original score.

J.R.R. Tolkien published “The Hobbit” in 1937 after writing it to entertain his own children. He followed it up with “The Lord of the Rings.” He ap-proved the 90-minute adapta-tion by Patricia Gray that the nexStage is producing.

The tale revolves around a Hobbit, or little person, named Bilbo Baggins, who is persuad-ed by the Wizard Gandalf to leave his comfortable shire to journey to Lonely Mountain to reclaim a stolen treasure from a fearsome dragon.

Accompanied by a band of dwarfs decked out in stom-ach stuffing and colorful yarn beards, Bilbo journeys through thick forests and dark caves, encounters glittery goblins and disgruntled elves, and even becomes the owner of a magi-cal ring that once belonged to Gollum—a former Hobbit now

slithery and deformed, driven mad by the power of the ring.

“‘The Hobbit’ is my favorite story ever,” said Hotstetler. “I read it when I was 11. I started it one afternoon and finished it at two that morning. The idea of the reluctant hero’s journey fascinated me. You hear that story a lot, but this story tells it better than any other. Bilbo Baggins spends most of the story thinking, ‘I’d rather be home. I’d rather be somewhere else.’ That story resonated with me at age eleven, not knowing if I would be the man I wanted to be.”

Lauren Sunday and Pierson Carlsen, who will take turns playing Bilbo, are among 19 youth that have been cast for the play from the nexStage Theatre’s acting classes. Jamie Wygle will play Gollum and Keith Moore, Gandalf. Jamey Reynolds will narrate the show.

Sunday, a 13-year-old sev-enth-grader at Wood River Mid-dle School, said she has had to learn to be “the sweetest, nic-

est person I can be,” since the Hobbits are “very kind, honest and generous people.”

“Bilbo teaches us to welcome change in our lives,” she said. “He finds a part of himself he didn’t know existed as he changes from being shy to a bold person. And the puppets are really cool, too. It’s going to be an amazing show.”

About the cAst“The Hobbit” features 19

youngsters. The complete cast:Drake Arial, Alagna Ashurst,

Brooke Beckwith, Sam Brown, Pierson Carlsen, Abby Catta, Dean Cerutti, Kayla Chaffey, Sylvia Cogen, Maddie Dean, Danielle Doerflein, Prue Hem-mings, Rick Hoffman, Megan Johnston, Jared Levasseur, Keith Moore, Doug Neff, Blake Nelson, Claire Reyburn, Jamey Reynolds, Betsy Sise, Lauren Sunday, Brooke Sundholm, Angela Super, Drake Vernoy, Remy Vernoy, Beck Vontner, Jamie Wygle.

The Rev. Ken Brannon will preside over Holy Week services at St. Thomas Episcopal Church.

PHoTo: KAREN BoSSICK/TWP

By KAREN BOSSICK

Seekers are invited to deep-en their spiritual experi-ence on Maundy Thursday

by walking through the last 24 hours of the life of Christ.

The Church of the Big Wood at Warm Springs and Saddle roads in Ketchum is hosting an interactive Journey to the Cross from 6 to 9 p.m. Thurs-day that will include music, hands-on things to do and even a few minutes with an actor.

“The journey will be interac-tive, reflective and prayerful,” said Gay Miremont.

Individuals and groups can drop in any time between 6 and 9 to take their journey. Or they can call 726-5123 to sign up for a specific time slot.

The experience is free.While this is a new thing

for the Presbyterian Church, St. Thomas Episcopal Church always takes five days to mark each step of Christ’s journey through Holy Week, said the Rev. Ken Brannon.

“Holy Week is the most im-portant week on the Christian calendar and we slow down, take our time and mark each step,” he said.

The church, at 201 Sun Val-ley Road in Sun Valley, will kick off Holy Week today with a Healing Eucharist and a laying on of hands and anointing for healing at 1 p.m.

Mindful of the difficult time this community has been through the past year, the church is encouraging mem-bers of the community to take part in the healing ceremony, Brannon said.

The church will celebrate Holy Eucharist at 7:30 p.m. Thursday with the St. Thomas Choir and stripping of the altar.

Maundy Thursday marks the Last Supper when Jesus told his disciples to love one

another, Brannon said. Church members strip and wash the altar following the service to symbolize the absence of Christ’s presence after he is hung on the cross and laid in the tomb.

St. Thomas and Our Lady of the Snows Catholic Church will celebrate a Joint Ecumenical Service at noon on Good Friday at the Catholic church. That will be followed by a Tenebrae Service of Shadows with the St. Thomas Choir at 7:30 p.m. Friday.

St. Thomas will hold its Great Vigil of Easter with the St. Thomas Choir at 7:30 p.m. Saturday. The service begins in darkness and includes a special kindling of the first fire of Eas-ter signifying the reemergence of Christ from the dead, the reading of the great stories of the faith and the story of salva-tion through Jewish scripture, renewal of baptismal vows and the first Eucharist of Easter.

Holy Week will conclude on Easter Sunday with a Holy Eu-charist with organ and hymns at 8 a.m. followed by a Festival Eucharist at 10 a.m. with St. Thomas Choir, the flowering of the cross and the Sunday School Easter Egg hunt.

Just as they waved palms on Palm Sunday, little children will decorate a cross with flowers on Easter Sunday.

“This signifies that a thing of shame and violence has been transformed into a picture of beauty with Christ’s resurrec-tion,” Brannon said.

Easter week, walk through Christ’s life

“[This] is the most important week on the Christian

calendar.”–Rev. Ken Brannon

Coming Soon:Kids Camp, 4.14Wedding & Event

Planner, 4.28

Rock legend Steve Miller is getting a

workout this week on behalf of some of his favorite causes.

The man be-hind such songs as “Fly Like An Eagle” and “The Joker” will team up with Bruce Wil-lis’ band The Accelerators to play at the Fur Ball.

The dance, to be held Friday at The Mint in downtown Hai-ley, benefits the Animal Shel-ter of the Wood River Valley.

Miller will return to The Mint at 8 p.m. Saturday to perform on behalf of the Snake River Alliance, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary of serving as a nuclear watchdog.

Both causes are dear to Miller’s heart. He and his wife Kim have had a long-standing love affair with the Australian shepherd/springer spaniels that they keep at their home north of Ketchum.

And Miller has long been a supporter of the Snake river Alliance.

“I think nuclear waste is the biggest issue this country has to face. How are we going to take care of it?” he said before the last concert he staged for the Alliance. “If Edward Teller was alive now, I’d grab him by the neck and kick him in the ribs.”

Friday’s Fur Ball starts at 8 p.m. with

DJ music by Yo Mama. Miller will take the stage at 10 p.m.

“We wanted to do a fun fund-

raiser, an anti-gala event—less money, more fun,” said Sheila Liermann. “There’s no silent

auction here. We’re just inviting people

to dance their paws off and party for their pets.”

There’ll be a costume contest for Best Dressed human ver-sion of a Mutt or Cat, a couple of raffles and an opportunity to win $300 for guessing the number of dog biscuits in a jar.

Tickets are $30 and can be purchased at the Barkin’ Base-ment on Main Street in Hailey or at Sun Valley Brokers on Sun Valley Road in Ketchum.

For more information, call 208-788-4351 or email [email protected]

Tickets for the Snake River Alliance gig also cost $30. Call 788-1051 for tickets.

Editor’s note: As of press time, this event is sold out. Also, please note that this is a humans-only event and four-legged friends will have to hear the recap from you in the morning as they are not allowed into the Mint due to health regulations.

Now this “New York Times” best-selling author has turned his attention to baseball—notably, how baseball changed a small impoverished community in the Dominican Republic.

Kurlansky’s new book, “The Eastern Stars,” paints a portrait of the sugar growing community of San Pedro de Macoris, which has produced 79 Major League baseball play-ers, including Sammy Sosa, Alfonso Soriano, Pedro Gonza-lez and Robinson Cano.

The book comes out April 15, just as Spring is reaching a feverish pitch among baseball lovers.

But Kurlansky, a longtime friend of the late Iconoclast Books owner Gary Hunt, will be at The Community Library at 6 p.m. on Thursday, April 1, offering a free sneak preview of the book, along with a book signing.

No fooling!Baseball has made million-

aires out of many of the San Pedro natives and changed the lives of their entire families, Kurlansky says. And their town of unpaved streets has been transformed with steel sculp-tures of ballplayers every-where.

Some of the early players came from the cane fields and started playing with balls made

with sugar syrup. Even today many

still improvise balls from wet rolled socks, even though the balls be-come oblong

with use.“Here, in one

of the poorest na-tions in the Western

hemisphere, baseball is a boy’s best hope—often, his only hope,” says Kurlansky.

Company of Fools will pull back the curtain on its upcom-ing season, which it promises will be wildly entertaining theatre, on April Fools Day.

The community is invited to hear all about it at The Liberty Theatre with a party from 6:30 to 8 p.m.

The theater company’s vol-unteers will serve up foolishly fabulous desserts, the Mayor of Hailey will issue his annual proclamation and at 7:15 p.m. the Fools will announced their 15th season.

Take it from us—it’s going to be a doozy.

Spring may have surprised us with an early April Fools’ gift of snow. But Papa Hemi’s Hideaway will stoke the fires tonight with the lively barefoot reggae of Ethan Tucker Debut.

The band will play from about 6:30 p.m. on and there’s no cover charge. But you can certainly show your apprecia-tion for the good vibes by in-dulging in the cookery’s Apple ‘n Sausage Stuffed Pork Chops or Creole Shrimp ‘n Grits.

Come Friday you can listen to Craig Meyers and All Night Diner play Appalachian folk and acoustic blues; on Satur-day, the Mighty Shims get the honor of playing bluegrass, blues and jazz.

Former Ketchum Council-man Charles Conn has more time for dropping a lure in the creek now that he’s relin-quished his role to Nina Jonas.

And Conn, a national board member of Trout Unlimited, will be telling some big fish tales Thursday when he talks about “Fishing the Clearwa-ter Streams of the Brazilian Amazon.”

The waters feature the Amazon peacock bass which Conn says is pound for pound the hardest hitting and fighting freshwater game fish on earth. Their top water lure-smashing strikes have become legend-ary in the angling community and thousands of fishermen travel to Brazil each year to try to snare 20- to 30 pound bass, many of which have never seen an artificial lure or fly before.

The free slide show spon-sored by the Hemingway Chapter of Trout Unlimited starts at 5 p.m. at The Roos-evelt Grille in Ketchum.

NAMI offers peer-to-peer programWendy Nor-

bom once thought

her mind was turning to Jell-O. Now, she says, she can help oth-ers who fear they are “losing their minds.”

That’s why Nor-bom and other Wood River Valley residents who have suffered from bipolar and other mental disorders have teamed up to offer a free 10-week recovery education course for adults with mental illness.

“Mental illness is a physical disorder of the brain, just as cystic fibrosis and diabetes are physical disorders,” she said. “And we want to help.”

An English version of the Peer-to-Peer education pro-gram, offered by the local chapter of NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness) meets from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays in Hailey. A Spanish version meets from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays.

The classes, which are based on a national program, are funded with grants from the Wood River Women’s Charitable Foundation, Idaho Community Foundation and Douglas W. and Gretchen K. Fraser Fund.

To enroll, call Norbom at 309-1987.

Norbom says she could have benefitted from a program like this 15 years ago when she started having panic attacks. She and her husband had just moved from their home in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, to Bellevue, Idaho, to further Gary Norbom’s architectural career.

Without a green card, Wendy Norbom was unable to find work, so she commuted between Bellevue and Canada, continuing her own work as an interior designer to help buy a

home. The stress, lack of sleep and poor

eating regimen piled up, and she suddenly found herself choking as if she was having a heart attack.

“Leaving my country, my job,

everything that made me feel safe, was gone.

I couldn’t work. The snow was over my head. I had no friends, no family nearby. I got depressed and panicked,” she recalled. “There was no NAMI here then. And who do you tell when you don’t know anyone?”

Eventually, Norbom found psychiatrist Sally McCollum who helped her overcome her anxiety disorder with a com-bination of talk therapy and antidepressants.

“She told me, ‘This is your issue. And just like someone with a skin disorder, you have to learn to live with it,’” Nor-bom said.

Over time, Norbom has de-veloped a lot of coping skills, resources and knowledge—all which she would like to pass on to those who take part in the Peer-to-Peer program.

“With empathy and under-standing you create empower-ment. All it may take in some cases is the correct prescrip-tion. Medications are so good today, yet people are stuck in the mindset that ‘There’s noth-ing for me.’”

That said, Norbom said, men-tal illness is still a frightening disorder that prompts many people to ask: What will people think of me?

“I’ve heard people say they’d rather have cancer because at least then people would empa-thize with them,” Norbom said. “The people who have signed up for this class are wonderful people with questions. Like: What do I tell my husband when he doesn’t get it that I

need a break? Or, what do I do with the kids when I need a break?”

The new class—a mix of lecture, discussion, exercises and stress-management tech-niques—will help participants learn to identify feelings, behaviors and events that can trigger a relapse.

If it proves successful, Nor-bom added, another program called Connections would be added to provide a support group, among other things. It would be the first such pro-gram in Idaho, she added.

Wendy Norbom enjoys life with husband Gary and their adopted daughter, Kami. And she wants to help others suffering from mental illness to enjoy a full life with the help of NAMI’s new Peer-to-Peer program. CoURTESY PHoTo

Ship ItI've never been one to like

computers, and when I becamea shipping manager, nothingchanged.

One day I had a rush order soI opened the FedEx shippingprogram to try and create someshipping labels. After a half-hour of banging the keyboard, Ifinally gave up and decided totry our other shipper. I openedthe UPS program and had thesame trouble. I just couldn't getanything to print.

In my frustration, I groaned,"Why don't FedEx and UPS justmerge to create one simple pro-gram."

As one of my employeescame over to help, he replied,"Because then the companywould be called, 'FED-UP'!"

Fast FactsDear Classified Guys,I'm beginning to think I'm badluck. I've worked for three com-panies in the last five years andeach one has closed its doors.The first company ran out ofinvestment money before iteven had a chance to launch aproduct. The second businesswas sued and had to file bank-ruptcy after paying the attor-neys. Then at my last company,the CEO was caught embezzlingand brought the company downwith him. I wouldn't mind thetime off between jobs, but ittakes me months to find a newone. That's a lot of rent whenyou have no income. Althoughit looks like I've landed anothernew job with a start-up companythat makes home teeth whiten-ing systems, I'm concerned mybad luck could continue. Anyideas on how I can tell if a com-pany is going to last?

• • •Cash: Considering your luck

with employment, I'd say it paysto "brush up" your resume.

Carry: Evaluating the future suc-cess of a business can be difficult,sometimes even for the owners.Established businesses that havebeen in the marketplace for manyyears are usually more secure.Newer start-up companies, such as

the one you're soon to be workingat, are slightly more of a gamble.

Cash: There are ways to checkthe financial stability of a compa-ny. Publicly traded companies,like those appearing on the stockmarket, are required to publishtheir financial data. However, pri-vate companies, like those thatyou have been working for, don'ttypically release financial infor-mation about their sales.

Carry: In those cases, it'simportant to ask a lot of questionsduring your job interview. Sincethey are a start-up company, theyshould be prepared to offer infor-mation about the company’s direc-tion and the strength of theirmarket potential. They knowemployees want to invest their

time in a company with a future.Cash: If the company leaves

you with the impression they'reoperating on a shoestring budget,then they probably are.

Carry: Regardless of this com-pany's potential, consider this.Most people make their largestleap in salary when they changejobs. After you accept this posi-tion, continue circulating yourresume. If you find something ata company that you feel morecomfortable with, then you canmake the jump and avoid havingseveral months without a job.

Cash: Besides, working for ateeth whitening company couldhave its benefits. At least you'llhave a bright smile for your nextjob interview.

Ask the Guys

This sounds like a sweet "start" up idea.

Following SuccessCompanies like Amazon and

Microsoft started in a garage andgrew into global businesses.However, many similar compa-nies never made it past the firstyear. Determining which start-upswill succeed and which ones willfail is no easy task, but an abstractpaper from Harvard Universityhas tried to link a company's suc-cess with the entrepreneurs whostart it. According to the research,first time entrepreneurs have an18% chance of success in theirventure. Entrepreneurs who pre-viously failed and tried again haveabout a 20% chance. However,entrepreneurs who have succeed-ed and try again fair the best witha success rate of about 30%.Pearly Whites

Can whitening your teeth helpyou during a job interview? It couldif the whiter teeth make you smilemore. People who smile during aninterview appear to be less stressed,more enthusiastic, friendlier andmore approachable; all traits thathelp a first meeting go well. Thereare many over-the-counter whiten-ing systems available today.However, dentists typically offerthe most comprehensive treatment.
