 Tickets are now available for the second performance of the CSI Theater Department's 2017-2018 Season, The Man Who Came to Dinner, directed by Shane Brown. The show will run December 6 - 9 at 7:30 p.m. and December 9 at 2 p.m. in the CSI Fine Arts Theater. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for high school students and seniors. Tickets available at the CSI Box Office, by calling 732-6288, or online at
tickets.csi.edu.
This comedy classic written by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman had a successful run after opening on Broadway in 1939, and subsequently became a film, a musical, and a television movie. Famously outlandish New York City radio wit Sheridan Whiteside, having dined at the home of the Stanleys, slips on their icy doorstep, breaking his hip. A tumultuous six weeks of confinement follow. The irascible Whiteside threatens a lawsuit and monopolizes the Stanley living room; ex-convicts are invited to meals; and transatlantic calls bring a $784 phone bill. The arrival of strange gifts from his friends further destroys domestic tranquility. (It would take a stoical housewife to harbor penguins in her library, an octopus in her cellar, and 10,000 cockroaches in her kitchen.) When Maggie, his secretary, falls in love with the local reporter, Bert Jefferson, Whiteside summons a glamorous actress, Lorraine, to win the affections of the young man. Don't miss this classic American romp!

CSI Geology professor Shawn Willsey will be at the Herrett Center
Saturday, Dec. 9th from
2:00 to 4:00 PM
Signing copies of his book
"Geology Underfoot in Southern Idaho."
His book is available at the Herrett Gift Shop.
Southern Idaho is a geologic jackpot. Etched in its rugged mountains, incredibly young lava fields, and steep-walled canyons lie compelling evidence of amazing geologic events, including breccia from one of the largest meteorite impacts in the world. Join geology professor and author Shawn Willsey as he uses clear prose, concise illustrations, and dramatic photographs to tell the stories of 23 amazing geologic sites. Learn how Ice Age floods carved the Snake River Canyon, how tree molds and lava tubes formed at Craters of the Moon, why 200 individuals of Idaho's state fossil -
the Hagerman Horse -
died and were preserved in one place, and where the land surface ruptured during the 1983 Borah Peak earthquake.

Eugene Ballet Company's Nutcracker stands out from all the other holiday shows as the one to see. Since the early 1900s, the Nutcracker has been the most performed and most popular ballet of all time. Danced to Tchaikovsky's memorable score, The Nutcracker is a favorite holiday tradition.
Now in its 35th year, The Eugene Ballet Company is, in the words of the National Endowment for the Arts, "one of the premier touring ballet companies in the United States". Over its 30 year existence, the company has performed the Nutcracker in 32 states and 7 countries. The Nutcracker performances on December 12 and 13 at the CSI Fine Arts Auditorium are a wonderful opportunity for the local community to see this outstanding professional ballet company.
Eugene Ballet Company's Nutcracker features a cast full of nationally and internationally acclaimed dancers. Artistic Director Toni Pimble overflows with enthusiasm when speaking of the talents of this season's performers.
"The Eugene Ballet Company brings dancers from all over the world to the CSI Fine Arts Center stage. Korean principal Yun-Kyung Kim bring technical aplomb and flair while Russian, Petr Orlov explodes onto the stage. Venezuelan Gilmer Duran brings character and magnatism, Leoannis Pupo Guillen acts the role of the Nutcracker with style. Juan Carlos Amy-Cordero's technical prowess is astonishing while long time principal dancer Jennifer Martin combines maturity with grace and technical acuity."
- EBC Artistic Director, Toni Pimble
As has become the custom, local dance students will have the thrill of a lifetime as they perform onstage with the Eugene Ballet Company. Roles to be danced by the children include mice, angels, party children, flowers, and ladybugs. Students were selected by audition and have been actively rehearsing under the guidance off Rayni Capps. "Involvement of local dance students is something that we have always encouraged," according to Toni Pimble, the company's artistic director. "Their experiences with a professional ballet company will be something they will remember for years to come, giving them inspiration beyond their dance studies."
Performances will be presented at 7:30 p.m. on December 12 and 13 at the CSI Fine Arts Auditorium. There are still about 400 tickets available for each night. Tickets, which are $25 for adults and $18 for children high school and under, can be purchased at the CSI Fine Arts Box Office from 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays, online at
http://tickets.csi.edu, or by calling 732-6288.

I saw myself in this article and it prompted me to share it with you. I hope it helps you as it did me!
The holiday season is one of love, connection and giving. In the best case scenario, we meaningfully bond with our families and friends, cook delicious food, share experiences and talk about what we wish for in the coming year. Too often, the best intentions dissolve into a period of anxiety and stress, leaving us too tired to give love and compassion to ourselves.
A few year ago, I was hosting a holiday party where I felt very unappreciated. I was running around getting everything organized and cleaning up after people, while they were sitting around having fun. I worked myself up, telling myself that no one noticed what I did, everyone was ungrateful, and I would never host a party again. The conversation I was having in my head ruined my whole evening. If I had been in a better place, I might have reacted in a different way. I might have looked at the situation with more love, politely asked for help, or expressed my feelings in a healthy manner.
This year, I have committed to a new approach to the holiday season. Let this be the year that we take care of our loved ones, including ourselves in that group, and learn how by tending to our own light, we will light up the world around us.
There is only one constant in your life, from the time that you arrive to the time that you leave - your self. You are the only person on your journey. People, jobs and homes all come and go, but you will remain. As you experience changes and new situations, you make millions of choices about how you react, how you move forward and what you choose to take away from your experiences. As the only person who makes these choices, I am fully responsible for being in the best of physical, spiritual and emotional health.

HR Executive magazine. Authors Michael Eichenwald and Jan Stanley
This article is much more than HR theory, but practical methods to practice leadership in the workplace to promote productivity and wellbeing. Some of my favorite content includes:
"Before discussing how to foster trust, let's take a step back to define what trust is -- and what it is not. Often, when people talk about trust, what they often have in mind is a concept that is closer to "confidence." For example, if you order a pair of shoes online, you probably trust that it will be the right size and color, based on your order. But that trust is simply the expectation that a company or person will do what you requested. While earning another's confidence through a proven track record is an important aspect of a high-performance culture, it differs from building an organizational culture that is based on trust."
"Trust is a profound act that occurs on a human scale. Real interpersonal trust lies in the act of making yourself vulnerable by putting your welfare in the hands of another, trusting that the person will deliver on something that's important to you. It is this openness to vulnerability that makes the act of trusting one another so deeply challenging."
Character
"How can leaders encourage colleagues to bring their best to work? One easy way is to celebrate their strengths, pointing out what's right with colleagues' behavior. People naturally yearn to demonstrate the best aspects of themselves with others when they feel supported. When this happens -- when people behave with strength and virtue at work -- they are elevated and energized in how they engage."
"Celebrating what's right can be as simple as a "shout out" in a weekly team meeting. Many organizations do some form of this, but it can be made even more powerful by focusing on character strengths of those being recognized. In other words, leaders need to be specific about how a colleague's courage, care or compassion led to a truly unique contribution. When they highlight contributions that come from character strengths, they foster trust. People who bring their best to work are able to experience a sense of authenticity and do the right thing with confidence, even when the immediate benefit is unclear."
Connection
"Prioritizing connection at work means spending time during working hours to foster relationships. One way HR leaders can do this is by celebrating particular ways colleagues support one another. For example, instead of only acknowledging the efforts of a sales lead, leaders can formally recognize the ways in which other colleagues enabled that person's success -- or that of a team. This may seem a subtle change, but by contributing to a colleague's success, an employee extends a hope that his or her efforts will be valued. This, in turn, makes the person vulnerable, the very definition of trust."
Conviction
A high-trust culture takes more than strong personal character and interpersonal relationships within a company. People also need to feel that their contributions are significant and connected to the overall mission and purpose of the organization. When people have conviction in a mission that they are working toward, their sights are on something greater than themselves. At the end of each day, week, month or year, they can reflect on the ways in which they have made a difference."

The City of Twin Falls is stepping up its response to the national opioid epidemic by partnering with St. Luke's Magic Valley to train and equip first responders, Police and Fire personnel, with Narcan. Doctor Matt Larsen of St. Luke's Magic Valley said, "The Federal Government recognizes the opioid epidemic hitting our country, the medical community recognizes the opioid epidemic, and law enforcement recognizes the opioid epidemic. While I would prefer to treat patients in the E.R., the bottom line is we have to have Narcan in the field to keep people alive long enough to get them to the E.R."
Lieutenant Terry Thueson said, "The Twin Falls Police Department recognizes the national opioid epidemic as more than a simple addiction problem. It is a national health crisis that is affecting our community in the same ways it has impacted other communities across the country. We recognize that the Twin Falls Police Department plays an important role in addressing this problem in our community. Our responsibility as peace officers to our community goes beyond mere enforcement of drug laws and includes education and prevention strategies." As a result, the Twin Falls Police Department has taken several steps to enhancing our ability to address illegal drugs within our community.
- The Twin Falls Police department has recently increased the number of officers trained as Drug Recognition Experts from 1 to 3 this past year.
- The Twin Falls Police Department recently received a grant from the Twin Falls Blue Lakes Rotary Club to purchase an additional drug detection canine.
- The Twin Falls Police Department is training and equipping our officers with Narcan.
In looking at the national opioid trend and its impact on our community, according to the Twin Falls County Coroner's office, in 2015 there were 19 deaths attributed to overdose, 18 overdose-related deaths in 2016, and 14 overdose-related deaths so far in 2017. Additionally, in 2015 the Twin Falls Police Department responded to 58 calls for service regarding an overdose. In 2016, that number increased to 70. So far in 2017, the Twin Falls Police Department has responded to 59 overdose-related calls for service.
