Ballard Family Dairy & Cheese Wins Sustainability Award The Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy® announced the winners of the second annual U.S. Dairy Sustainability Awards on April 23 at a special ceremony in Washington, D.C. The goal of the program is to recognize dairy farms and businesses of all sizes for practices that advance the industry’s commitment to healthy products, healthy communities and a healthy planet. The recipiant of the Outstanding Achievement in Energy Efficiency award is a dairy located just north of Gooding Ballard Family Dairy & Cheese. Energy efficiency is sometimes overlooked, but the Ballards see it as a way to reduce their overhead costs and eliminate propane use. An energy audit and a team of energy management experts helped identify four primary areas of savings, which included using solar thermal power for the hot water system, installing LED lighting, replacing vacuum pumps and adjusting the milk cooling process. The Ballards achieved their goals, saving $23,000 annually and reducing the dairy’s carbon footprint by 121,500 pounds per year, while decreasing its water footprint by 365,000 gallons annually. “The strength of the award winners’ stories illustrates why consumers can be confident about choosing their favorite dairy foods and beverages,” said Barbara O’Brien, president
of the Innovation Center for U.S. Dairy, which was founded by dairy producers. “These and thousands of other actions being taken every day - both large and small - contribute to the industry’s overall commitment to a healthy future for the next generation.” The winners were selected based on results that delivered triple-bottom-line results to advance economic, environmental and social sustainability. An independent panel of judges - which included experts from academic institutions, government, dairy science organizations, nongovernmental organizations and media as well as environmental and dairy industry leaders - also assessed the potential for adoption by others as well as demonstrated learning, innovation and improvement. “This year’s winners include dairy farms and businesses from across the country who took steps to reduce their environmental impact, improve their profitability and increase their contribution to a sustainable 21st century food system,” said Molly Jahn, professor of genetics and agronomy at University of Wisconsin-Madison and a member of the awards’ judges panel.

Cup of Tee
It was one day prior to graduation and we just had our graduation practice. The class president and a couple of others came to me for a request. I was wondering why they might be singling me out for the crowd. Rumor had it I was going to wear my Stetson hat through the graduation ceremony instead of my blue cap (and they were right). Their request was, “Could you be normal like the rest of us, just once?” Without any thought I replied, “If to be like the rest of you is normal, probably not.” Tension for the class was set. On that May 21st of our graduation day it was pretty hot and our ceremony was held on our football field. I came dressed in a three piece suit, unlike the rest of the class in cut-offs. Eyes were on me from every direction. When my name was announced everyone was looking elsewhere, as if they did not know me. I entered the stage in a blue gown and blue hat, and received my diploma like one sheep following another. As I sat down the gal to the right of me said, “Tee, I went to school with you for twelve years and did not know your name.” To clear up a reader’s inquiry, Tee is not a pen name I use to write my “Cup of Tee” column. Instead, Tee is a name pinned on me since I was wee months old. Tee was short for “T” for trouble. I was born in Emmett, Idaho, when my parents were on a large ranch with lots of ranch hands. I was everywhere. In fact, my parents tied me to a tree in the yard with my toys to keep me centralized (not in bondage, but with ten feet distance of travel). When I started school I didn’t know my alphabet very well. I learned most of my letters from the letters in Campbell’s Soup as did most of us of the time. I was “Tee”ribly surprised to find out that the brown wrapped candy was m&m’s instead of m&w’o. With those I started school as Tee and remained Tee throughout school. Having a name like Tee you get into a lot of unusual circumstances. People would tell me that I was weird and I would thank them for the compliment because I wasn’t “robotically” normal. During high school I was nominated to Who is Who in American High School Students. I had no clue what that was so I never sent in the proper paperwork. I am past president and currently serve on the board of directors of the Treasure Valley Antique Tractor Pullers. I like to attend tractor pulls with my main puller, a 1954 John Deere 60. Prior to tractor pulling I used to do demolition derbies. One thing I like about tractor pulling is I use the same vehicle over and over. Did I mention I use the same vehicle for twenty times instead of using one for twenty minutes. Stay tuned next week as I continue my crash course on my “Cup of identi-Tee.”

“Life After Life” by Kate Atkinson Imagine this scenario: a respected author writes a gorgeous, rich story about an English family set from 1910 to 1945 following each family member through the ordinary and not so ordinary trials of life as England heads for war. She takes it to her editor, and he says, “but what if…?” and she goes back and rewrites the family’s fate, twisting and turning the hapless characters on the spit of her word processor using all the luscious proper British vocabulary at her disposal. Then she goes back to the editor and he says, “Well and good but what if…?” Now this respected author is getting miffed, she has written five different ways for the scenes to spool out for these characters and they have churned and moaned in about every ghoulish way possible and she’s getting sick of them. She takes the whole works, all the chapters with all the different roads taken, and throws them into the air where they flutter onto the editor’s desk and says with a stiff upper lip, “Now, what if!” So the editor, being certain he must publish a book to keep his job, scoops the chapters up in any old order and says, “Wonderful darling, we’ll call it “Life After Life”.

Survivors Are The Reason We Walk! A cancer survivor is anyone who has ever heard the words “you have cancer.” All Gooding County cancer survivors are guests of honor at the 1st Annual Gooding Relay For Life the evening of July 26, 2013 at the Gooding County Fairgrounds. The evening will begin with a registration process at 4 p.m. followed by a free dinner reception for cancer survivors and their individual caregiver. Each survivor will receive a special T-shirt at the dinner. There will be a brief ceremony with State Representative Steve Miller as guest speaker. Cancer survivors are living proof that cancer can be defeated. The Gooding Relay for Life will then begin with a Survivors Lap, where survivors lead the way around the track while being honored and applauded by all participants. Being a part of the Survivors Lap allows survivors to celebrate what they’ve overcome, while at the same time inspiring and motivating their community to fight. This is a great way for people to meet other cancer survivors in their own community. If you would like to participate in this year’s Survivors Lap or other activities, PLEASE SIGN UP TODAY. We will need all cancer survivors to fill out a brief Survivor Card which includes the T-shirt size you will receive. We will be ordering the T-shirts around July 1, 2013 so that we have them in time for the Relay event on July 26th. Please contact either Susan Bolton at sbolton@landtitleandescrow.com or 934-8477 or Survivor Chairperson Cody Varin at 934-5963.

Be Freed From Tobacco SCPHD Offering Free Cessation Classes TWIN FALLS-South Central Public Health District (SCPHD) will be offering a Freedom from Smoking adult tobacco cessation class session that will begin on June 18, 2013. The free six-class program will be conducted each Tuesday from 5:30-7:15 p.m. at SCPHD located at 1020 Washington Street North (in the Katz A Conference Room), in Twin Falls. Space is limited for these classes, and those wishing to attend are urged to register early. Contact Elvia Caldera, Tobacco Program Coordinator for SCPHD, at 737-5988. The program is specifically designed for those who want to get rid of their addiction to tobacco. Skills and knowledge levels are built to help reduce and eventually eliminate the use of tobacco. Participants in the class learn skills to communicate better, handle stress, set goals, eat healthy, and exercise. Tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of death today in the United States. More than 440,000 people die each year from using tobacco products, which averages about 1,200 people a day. For every tobacco-related death, there will be 20 others who will suffer from various health problems and a decreased quality of life.

“The Goodale Trail” Presented by the Gooding County Historical Society
Wednesday, June 19th at 7:00 p.m. Gooding County Museum 273 Euskadi Lane (Hwy 26/46) (next to Basque Cultural Center & North Canyon Medical Center)
Tim Goodale was an early trapper, explorer and route guide in the league with such notables as Jim Bridger, Kit Carson and Jedediah Smith. In 1862, Goodale pioneered a new route through Southern Idaho for Oregon Trail travelers headed towards Boise and on to Oregon. During this later trail period, Idaho represented, more than any other area, the quintessential trail experience - long bleak stretches of desert, frequent Indian encounters, lack of contact with the “civilized” world, and difficult river crossings. Goodale’s cutoff became the preferred route for thousands of westering pioneers during the 1860’s through the 1880’s, but it was not an easy journey. A waterless, thirtyfive-mile journey from Ft. Hall to Butte Mountain followed by torturous lava fields of the present day Craters of the Moon taxed every traveler. And it was not without great impact on the areas adjacent to the trail. The speaker for this presentation is Tom Blanchard (from the Idaho Humanities Council). Tom Blanchard received his graduate training in history with emphasis on U.S. and Western history at San Francisco State University. He has worked in local history, doing projects and research in Idaho for the past fifteen years, and teaching U.S. and Idaho and the Pacific Northwest history for the College of Southern Idaho. In addition, Blanchard served three terms as County Commissioner from Blaine County, adding a very contemporary public policy perspective to historical issues which shade our lives. The lecture is free, donations are appreciated. Refreshments to follow. For more information contact: Judy Erdman, Events Coordinator (934-9475) or the Gooding Museum 934-5318.
