I'm excited to announce a virtual collaboration project being made available to CSI students by the U.S. State Department through an organization called IREX. Students choosing to get involved with this project will work collaboratively with students from a university in Jordan via Zoom and other virtually collaborative tools to develop a business plan proposal and presentation related to a product or service that supports global sustainability. It's a great way to learn the steps in the business plan process, while learning about a different culture.
(Being able to list on your resume that you've been involved in a global project for the U.S. State Department is pretty cool too!)
How long will the project run: The week of January 20th to April 16th (We will determine the day/time of the week we meet during our introduction session)
Are there costs involved: You are welcome to sign up for 1-3 elective credits in BUSM 285 if you would like to earn credit for this project, but that would be the only way costs would be incurred, and signing up for credit is optional. There are no required costs for the project.
How much time will it take: About three hours a week. You'll have about an hour of independent work to do on a specific topic (research, watch videos, etc.), we'll meet once a week for about an hour, and you'll work with your local and Jordan partner(s) off and on via virtual meeting software for about an hour each week. We will also set up virtual meeting sessions as a class periodically with all of the students from the Jordan university. Time differences will need to be considered when meeting times are determined so a bit of flexibility will be necessary.
This is a campus-based project and those involved must be willing and able to come to campus for the one-hour per week we will work together.
Who can take part: All CSI students are eligible to join the project. You don't have to be in a degree or certificate program or a business student, but you do have to be an enrolled CSI student. You don't have to be a U.S. citizen.
How do I learn more: There are two introduction sessions to choose from. Pick the one that works best for your schedule. 2:00-3:00 Thursday, January 16th in Canyon 124A or 9:00-10:00, Friday January 17th in Canyon 124C. We will talk about the project in more detail and select the day/time each week we want to get together for weekly sessions.
Hopefully you'll want to join us for this exciting project.

Note
: I love the AARP Bulletin because there is always at least one article that is beautifully researched and written, and with a message I need to hear. I have followed Jane Bryan Quinn for many years and believe her to be a very credible reporter. Here are some tips from her parting article in December as she ventures forth on her own retirement journey. Please refer to the entire article online.
Quinn: To all my dear friends at AARP: I'm doing it. I'm retiring. After all these years of reporting and writing about how to prepare for retirement, I'm trying it myself.
So much has changed in the world since the day I launched as a baby financial reporter in 1963. When it comes to what to do with our money, we have tons of options that didn't exist back then. So which should we choose?
My advice? Choose almost none of those options. (Instead:)
- Simplify your financial life. Raise the automatic contributions to your savings plans.
- Don't have a plan? Automate contributions to an individual retirement account (IRA).
- Buy low-cost index funds that follow the broad stock and bond markets; they will likely outperform any managed fund you own (and, almost certainly, any bag of individual stocks you might select).
- Right-size your life to live within your means.
- Make a will.
- Check that the beneficiary forms of your IRAs and 401(k)s list the correct people.
- Then quit thinking about your money and get on with your life.
If you don't want to manage your money yourself, find someone who charges only fees (no commissions) and works for a firm where no one charges commissions. Keep it simple. Simple is the sophisticated way to save, invest and plan.

My mom was a hoarder. While not in the same league as the people featured on
Buried Alive (thankfully), she clearly had a problem letting go. There were the clothes dating back to the mid-70s that no longer fit her, kitchen appliances she hadn't used in decades, piles of unopened tea towels... the list goes on. Even before I
adopted a minimalist lifestyle, a visit to my parents' house would invariably leave me feeling overwhelmed. There was just so much stuff. Every once in a while, I'd try to convince Mom to declutter a little, but she always had a reason not to.
When they finally did move into an old age home, I was left to clean out their house on my own. The task was physically taxing and time-consuming, but it was the emotional aspect that hit the hardest. Being responsible for someone else's memories is a tough ask.
In Sweden, there is a kind of decluttering called
döstädning -
dö meaning 'death' and
städning meaning 'cleaning.'
Swedish death cleaning can be done at any age; you don't have to wait until you're old to rid yourself of unnecessary belongings. That being said, the sooner you do it, the better. In her book,
The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning, author and artist
Margareta Magnusson encourages us to
clean like there's no tomorrow. Because, well, there might not be.
The idea is to avoid having others do the job for you after you've gone. It may sound like a heavy topic, but Magnusson uses humor and wisdom to get her ideas across. Equal parts radical and joyous in her approach, she introduces an element of fun to a potentially daunting task. Nobody likes to think about dying, but perhaps it's time we did.

Winner of the 2008 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best New Play, August: Osage County centers around the Weston family, brought together after their patriarch, world-class poet and alcoholic Beverly Weston, disappears. The matriarch, Violet, depressed and addicted to pain pills and "truth-telling," is joined by her three daughters and their problematic lovers, who harbor their own deep secrets, her sister Mattie Fae and her family, well-trained in the Weston family art of cruelty, and finally, the observer of the chaos, the young Cheyenne housekeeper Johnna, who was hired by Beverly just before his disappearance. Holed up in the large family estate in Osage County, Oklahoma, tensions heat up and boil over in the ruthless August heat. Bursting with humor, vivacity, and intelligence, August: Osage County is both dense and funny, vicious and compassionate, enormous and unstoppable. Warning: Coarse language, adult themes, sex & drug use references.
Tickets are $15 and can be obtained by going to tickets.csi.edu, at the CSI Box Office, or by calling 732-6288.

West Coast violinist Kimberlee Dray meets Slovakian pianist Peter Fancovic in New York City to rehearse. The duo truly represents the fusion of East and West, characterizing their program spanning Prokofiev to Gershwin. While Peter earned his Master's of Music in Piano Performance from the Manhattan School of Music, Kimberlee studied under famed Soviet violinist Nina Beilina. The merging of cultures informs their collaboration, making this recital of Soviet and American repertoire a particularly rewarding adventure as evidence of the power of music to unite cultures and people. An active recitalist, Kimberlee has performed across the United States and Peter is a much sought after soloist and collaborator, having performed in venues such as Concertgebouw, with Orquesta Sinfonica Nacional de Cuba and many others.

New Planetarium Show - Volcanoes: The Fires of Creation
|
Every rock tells a story. Many of the rocks across southern Idaho tell a story of a landscape sculpted by volcanic activity. Volcanoes intrigue us with their incredible power and potential to cause mass destruction. Beginning December 26, residents of southern Idaho can gain a better appreciation and understanding for volcanoes when the Faulkner Planetarium opens the giant screen film Volcanoes: The Fires of Creation.
Witness the incredible tale of the birth of our planet in which volcanoes played a crucial role. Then step into the present and follow along as National Geographic photographer Carsten Peter takes you along on a personal journey to see volcanoes from the inside, revealing their hidden mysteries. Get up close to the 2018 eruption of Hawaii's Kilauea and watch as Carsten attempts to descend to a lava lake as it roils and churns, launching fountains of lava. Carsten's passion for volcanoes will grab you, thrill you, and scare you all at the same time. You may never want to get as close to an active volcano in real life as Carsten does, but you can go there with him from the safety of your seat in the planetarium.
Moviegoers will gain a new appreciation for the forces that created the stark beauty of Craters of the Moon, with its extinct splatter cones and plains of frozen lava, and other lava flows across southern Idaho. Every rock tells a story.
Planetarium manager Rick Greenawald says: "This is a stunning movie experience. The cinematography is beautiful and gives you a real appreciation for the power of volcanoes. Carsten Peter's passion for volcanoes shines through and adds a human element to the story. I am certain that audiences of all ages will enjoy this film."
Opening week show times are 1:30 and 3:30 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, and again at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. The week of December 31, showings will be at 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday and again at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Starting the week of January 5, showings will be at 7 p.m. Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays and at 2:30 p.m. on Saturdays throughout the month of January. Admission prices to the planetarium are $6 adults (18 to 59), $5 seniors (60+), $4 children (2 to 17) and CSI students with a valid student ID, children under the age of 2 are admitted free.
Located in the Herrett Center for Arts and Science on the College of Southern Idaho campus in Twin Falls, ID, the Faulkner Planetarium is the premiere planetarium in Idaho. Public shows are offered on Tuesday and Friday evenings and Saturday afternoons and evenings throughout the academic year. Expanded public show schedules are offered during the summer and holiday season.
For more information, including show schedules, program descriptions, movie trailers, and coming attractions, visit the Herrett Center's web page at http://herrett.csi.edu.

Love and Logic Parenting Skills and Techniques
Develop Strong Parenting Techniques and Strategies
Raise happy and well-behaved kids with positive, loving tools
The Love and Logic approach to parenting is built around the science of crafting caring and respectful relationships. An authentic, loving connection between parents and their children is the root of a healthy, thriving relationship built on trust and understanding.
Sounds easy enough but never before in history have parents been faced with so many challenges! Our approach provides a variety of simple and effective strategies for parenting children from birth to adulthood. Whether you're embarking for the first time with your new baby or navigating the turbulent teens with your youngest, our strategies and techniques will help you create calm and loving solutions.
Choose "Love"
The "Love" in Love and Logic means that we love our kids so much that we are willing to set and enforce limits. This Love also means that we do so with sincere compassion and empathy.
Choose "Logic"
The "Logic" in Love and Logic happens when we allow children to make decisions, make affordable mistakes and experience the natural or logical consequences. When we balance this with sincere empathy, they develop the following logic:
The quality of my life depends on the quality of my choices.
With the loving yet powerful tools of Love and Logic, we can help our children learn to make good choices and experience happy lives while maintaining their love and respect.
Specialized solutions for a range of challenges, including:
* Picky Eating
* Stubbornness
* Social Media
* Step-Parenting
* Potty Training
* Special Needs
* Toddler Tantrums
* Much More!
CSI Head Start/Early Head Start is proud to offer "Love and Logic, Early Childhood Parenting Made Fun" as our new facilitated parenting t raining/curricula and made especially for parents of kids 0-6!

Refugees Share Their Stories
Since 1980 over 2,500 people have re-settled in the Magic Valley area through the CSI Refugee Program. This has been a successful program of providing a new start for many refugees who have become members of our community. Each of these people have interesting stories about their experiences of having to leave their countries and how they have grown to be members of our Magic Valley community.
The Magic Valley Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, located at 160 9th Ave East, is hosting a Refugee Stories event on January 23rd from 6 to 8 pm. Representatives of the refugee community will share their journeys along with the courage it required, the sacrifices and adjustments they made to come to the United States for the safety of their families. It is an opportunity for the community to better understand the determination of refugees to be a part of the Magic Valley. This event is free and open to the public and is planned to be the first of several similar events. A reception will be held afterward.
Unitarian Universalism is a faith tradition that welcomes and stands up for the full rights of all people regardless of race, ethnicity, immigration status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and religion.
