Recently After 5 caught up with

Phil Ehlke, General Manager

of Your QFM, a Christian

radio station based out of Fos-

ston which is now opening up an office inGrand Forks this month and putting on the

Rock and Worship Roadshow at the Ralph

Engelstad Arena on February 17th, and Kerri

Drees, a former voice on Grand Forks radio

stations owned by Leighton Broadcasting

and soon to be a new voice on Your QFM.

Together we talked about the addition of a

QFM office in Grand Forks as well as the up-coming Rock and Worship Roadshow.

A5: Why did you want to open an office

in GF instead of creating a different sta-

tion all together?PE: Pretty much impossible to start a

completely different station in Grand Forks.

Even if the FCC allowed a new frequency

for Grand Forks, it would cost a fortune tocompletely start a new independent station.

A5: What advantages come to having

an office in GF?

PE: Grand Forks is the largest populated

community within the QFM listening area.

It's hard to connect with a community that

size when you have no physical presence or

no "boots on the ground" there. We want theGrand Cities to be fully aware that they have

an active Christian Radio Station in

town...on-air and on the streets...and we will

be. The new studio and added staff also al-

lows us the ability to be "live and local" somuch more throughout the week.

A5: What changes to the programming

will be made?

KD: What will stay is Mornings with

Brant and Total Axxess with Wally in the late

afternoons. Well have Focus on the Family

and 60 minutes with Phil at 9:00 a.m. The

lineup after Phil will be Dave Ramsey from

10:00-11:00, then Ill be on from 11:00-3:00

and then Wally will be on from then until

7:00. At 7:00 Focus on the Family will run.Then Holly Sableman will do her show

called Looking up with Holly from 7:30 to

midnight. My program will be music. Holly

will do a live portion from 9:00-11:00 where

she takes phone calls on your life situations.

A5: With an office in GF, can we expect

more concerts like the Rock and Worship

Road Show?

PE: Lets put it this way...it won't hurt.

Coming on February 17, QFM will helpkick off their new office in Grand Forks and

new programming by hosting the Rock and

Worship Roadshow at the Ralph EngelstadArena in Grand Forks.

Drawing over 350,000 to concert venues

hocolate and Valentine's Dayare like peas in a pod. Valen-tine's Day enthusiasts find it

hard to imagine going withoutchocolate on that special mid-February daywhen couples express their love for one an-

other.This Valentine's Day, men and women can

go above and beyond when gifting theirsweetheart and prepare a homemade choco-late dish that's sure to please. A recipe like thefollowing for "Chocolate-CoveredCaramelized Cashews" from Michael Rec-chiuti and Fran Gage's "Chocolate Obses-sion" (Stewart, Tabori & Chang) should puta smile on your sweetheart's face this Valen-tine's Day.

Chocolate-Covered Caramelized CashewsMakes about 11 ounces

11/2 cups whole cashews

1/3 cup granulated sugar2 teaspoons unsalted butter with 82% but-terfat

1/2 cup unsweetened natural cocoa pow-der

1/2 cup tempered 65-70% chocolateRoast and caramelize the cashews:

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line the bottomof a sheet pan with parchment paper.

Use only whole cashews, not broken

pieces. Spread them on the prepared pan in asingle layer. Roast the nuts until they aremedium brown, about 12 minutes.

While the nuts are roasting, put a piece ofparchment paper or a nonstick baking lineron a work surface. Measure the sugar andbutter and put both of them next to the stove.

As soon as the nuts are roasted, place amedium heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Use an unlined copper pot if youhave one. When the pot is hot -- test by flick-ing a drop of water into the pan; it should siz-zle and dance across the bottom --immediately add the nuts and the sugar.Cook, stirring constantly with a woodenspoon, until the sugar liquefies and coats the

nuts. If they start to smoke, reduce the heat.

When only a few specks of sugar remain un-melted, remove from the heat and add thebutter. Stir until the nuts glisten and start toseparate from one another.

Scrape the nuts onto the parchment paperor baking liner and separate them into indi-vidual pieces as best as you can. When they

are cool enough to handle, carefullyapart any that are stuck together.

Let the nuts cool to room temperatu

Coat the nuts with chocolate:Chill a large metal bowl in the refrigfor at least 20 minutes. Line the botto

large sheet pan with parchment paper. Scocoa powder into a medium bowl.

Put the caramelized nuts in the cbowl. Add the tempered chocolate andto coat the nuts with the chocolate. Whchocolate has almost set, after about utes, sift about half the cocoa powdethe nuts. Stir until the nuts start to sepand then toss them with your hands torate them into individual pieces. Addcocoa powder if needed to separatecompletely. You may have cocoa powdover.

Put the nuts in a sieve, shake them

move any excess cocoa powder, anspread them in a single layer on the prpan.

When the chocolate has set, store thin an airtight container in a cool, drynot in the refrigerator, for up to 2 wee

With winter's frosty chill in

the air, you find yourselfdonning hats and boots

and warming yourself by

the fireplace. And, as the weather changes,

so do your food cravings. This season, the

comforting classics are back in style - from

warm soups to the comfort of home cooked

meals - and technology has also permeated

the dining room table.

"I enjoy this time of year because it's

when my entire family gets together. I love

to gather around the table with my family

and friends to enjoy delicious food and

wine," says Emmy award-winning chef

and cookbook author, Giada De Laurentiis.

Not many people have a better sense of

food and wine trends than De Laurentiis,

who recently developed a seasonal enter-

taining guide in conjunction with BellaSera wines that features tips and recipes

perfect for winter.

"Pairing meals with wines is definitely

becoming a trend for home entertaining,

and Bella Sera wines make for delicious

pairing with the dishes typical of the sea-

son," De Laurentiis notes.

Here are some tips and trends to help

keep your entertaining warm and cheery

this winter:

Soups. Soups will be hot this season.

This comforting classic will make a return

to the table as a complement to the overall

meal - or even the meal itself, if the soup is

hearty enough. Try Giada's Italian White

Bean, Pancetta and Tortellini Soup paired

with Bella Sera Chianti.

Simplicity. Keeping things simple in the

kitchen has never been more on-trend.

From using slow-cookers to five-ingredient

recipes, expect the season's winter dishes

to include simple appetizers and one-pot

wonders paired with wine, instead of diffi-

cult dishes with extensive ingredient lists

and complicated mixed drinks.

Home-cooked meals. The convenience

of fully prepared take-home dinners and

platters is being overtaken by practicality

during these economic times. Especially

when the weather turns cold, mor

more home cooks are staying in thekitchens - using some pre-made ingre

- but saving money by preparing th

of the meals themselves.

Technology. Browsing the Intern

using smart phones to research and

for wintertime recipes is gaining in

larity. Cookbooks will always be a fa

but more home cooks are doing som

ging online as well, especially to fin

twists on beloved favorites, like

stews and simple cassoulets.

Discussion. Place a few different b

of wine directly on the table for frien

family to help themselves. This enco

discussion about the food and wine

the wine bottles offer a cozy adornm

a winter table.

Yes, winter means comfort-food

planning. So go ahead and browse f

perfect recipe, make a one-pot sou

thrill guests with a variety of wines to

ple around your winter table, as you

and enjoy special meals with famil

friends.

pairing ideas, and to download Giada

Any parent who's sat up through

the night with a sick childknows relieving their symp-toms is only part of your mis-

sion. Easing the discomforts of cold and flufor your little one is a No. 1 priority.

"Watching your child suffer, even if it'sfrom something as minor as a nose that's soreand chapped from repeated blowing, is a ter-rible feeling for any parent," says Dr. TanyaRemer Altman, a mother and pediatricianwho is a best-selling author and spokespersonfor the American Academy of Pediatrics."Relieving the discomforts related to coldand flu not only helps kids feel better, it alsoreduces stresses for their parents."

"Dr. Tanya," as she's known to her patientsand the millions who've seen her on theToday Show or who follow her blog, offers

some tips to help parents make children feelmore comfortable while fighting a cold or theflu:

* Flu vaccines are recommended for

everyone 6 months and older, but it's not un-usual for children to fear a shot. Ask your pe-diatrician about giving your child the flu

vaccine in a nasal spray form. It's availablefor children 2 and older, and provides thesame protection and safety as the traditionalflu shot.

* Your mother probably swore by chickensoup and she was on to something. Servingsick children chicken soup not only givesthem the benefit of nourishment while theirbodies are fighting a virus, studies showchicken soup has anti-inflammatory proper-ties as well. Plus, it's a popular comfort foodthat most kids love.

* Sore, chapped noses add to the discom-fort of having a cold. Tissues with added lo-tion, like Puffs Plus with Lotion, can helpprevent chapping from frequent nose blowingand wiping. The strong, lotion-filled tissues

can help children get more out of their noseblowing, ensuring they're confident they canblow without getting anything "icky" on theirlittle hands. You can also use petroleum jelly

or unscented ointment to soothe the irritationand discomfort.

* Another way to help relieve a stuffy nose

is to try a few drops of nasal saline and gentlesuctioning. A cool mist humidifier and a lib-eral application of Vicks on children olderthan 2 can also help, especially at night whenlying down can make a child feel stuffy. Re-member, however, never to use Vicks on chil-dren younger than 2 years old; it may actuallyincrease the mucus in their airways.

* Frequent hand-washing is important toprevent the spread of viruses. Yet washingyour hands a lot, especially in cold weather,can leave them dry, sore and cracked. Teach

your children to wash their hands whilesinging "Wash, wash, wash your hands, washthem every day. Wash them with water andwash them with soap to wash the germsaway" to the tune of "Row, row, row your

boat." Then follow up with a soothing lotion.You can find many fragrance-free varietiesspecially formulated for children.

* When your child's throat is sore, he

might be unwilling to eat or drink Offer a sugar-free fruit Popsicle insteacoolness can help ease a sore throat

child will get some hydration from the juice and he'll feel like he's getting a treat.

* Make trips to the doctor's office bringing a book or toy to keep your chcupied, and a snack in case she gets hA special reward or treat after the visit a nice tradition.

Finally, don't overlook your own mcomfort as well; call the doctor if yoyour child's symptoms are worrisomeents often tell me they thought about c

but didn't want to be a bother," Dr. says. "Most pediatricians are parents tothey would rather take a few minutes tsure you that your child's cold symptomimprove on their own than to not hav

call about your sick child who really nbe seen. Your pediatrician is there tyou, so if you feel something is imppick up the phone and call."

Recently After 5 caught up

with Prairie RoseRage of the

Forx Roller Derby to talk

about the creation of the Forx

Roller Derby, what roller derby is and

some great news about their latest bout

coming up this month on February 19

where the Sugar Beaters will take on the

Deadwood, SD Renegade Regulators at the

Alerus Center.

A5: When did the Forx Roller Derby

get going?

PRR: Forx Roller Derby started at its of-

ficial first meeting last May (2010). How-

ever, it started long before then. Two of our

league members got together and started

organizing a league, which requires a lot of

work and patience, before we could even

have our first meeting to start recruiting

skaters. The "founders" did an excellent job

encompassing the passion for roller derby

by creating a league that operates, "By the

Skaters, For the Skaters". After we started

skating as a team, we began to work to-

gether (both on and off the track), countless

hours to keep our league running.

A5: Who started it?

PRR: We are all the founding members

of this infant league and every singleleague member has played a crucial role in

getting our league off the ground. It started

as an idea, and like a seed, it required much

TLC from many sources to bloom it to

what it has become! It takes a whole village

to keep a league going. Besides the

skaters, who do an amazing job, we also

have husbands, boyfriends, friends, and

family who help keep us running.

A5: What made them want to start it?

PRR: I can't speak for them on that part,

but I can talk about why I joined. Through-

out my life, I have always been a little "dif-

ferent" than the normal crowd. I'm not

weird or abnormal in any way, but I have

always had a hard time fitting the "Cookie-

Cutter" pattern that is "the norm". When I

found roller derby, I found a sport that isextremely exciting to watch, full of strategy

and athletic ability, and I found a new

home. Roller Derby Leagues are filled with

people from all kinds of backgrounds, ages,

cultures and ideals, but everyone is ac-

cepted. We cheer each other on to get faster

and stronger and support each other when

life gets hard. My league members have

become a family.

A5: How many people are on the

team?

PRR: Currently, we have 17 players.

But in derby, the team is more than just the

people that play. We have two coaches,

three refs (on skates), and numerous volun-

teers that help make up Forx Roller Derby.

A5: What sort of people are on the

team?

PRR: This is one of the special things

about roller derby. We are all very different,

but very similar in many ways! We are

moms, professionals, students, artists, busi-

nesswomen and most importantly... derby

dolls.

A5: Briefly give me the main rules

and point of Roller Derby.

PRR: Forx Roller Derby's goal is to

eventually become apart of the Women's

Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).

We follow their rules and guidelines for

game play. We skate on a "flat track" that

is oval in diameter (picture a large oval on

about a basketball court). Two teams playeach other during a bout (game). A bout is

usually divided into two 30-minute peri-

ods, with a period being divided into two-

minute sections called Jams. During a jam,

10 girls (five from each team) line up on

the straightaway of the oval. There are

three main positions they play: Jammer,

Blocker, Pivot - each being equally impor-

tant!

There are two pivots (1 from each team)

and they are identified by having a large

stripe on their helmet. Usually, they are the

ones in charge of setting the skating pace

for the whole "pack". The pack also holds

the other position, Blockers. The blockers

are extremely important - they help their

jammer and provide defense against the op-

posing team's jammer.The Jammer, who has a large star on her

helmet, scores points. Her job is to pass

through the pack legally (with assistance

from her team), continue around the track,

and on her SECOND pass through the

pack, she scores one point for each member

of the opposite team she passes. This may

sound really easy, but imagine skating at 25

mph, with a 180 lb girl slamming into you

with her thighs, shoulders, back, butt, etc.

Not as easy as it sounds!!

The amazing thing about roller derby is

no one can succeed without their team. If

you can't play as a team, you don't get any-

where.

A5: Why is this such a big bout?

PRR: On February 19th, we are hosting

our FIRST hometown bout! "A Bout to Re-

member" will be the debut for the Forx

Sugar Beaters, who will be playing Dead-

wood's Renegade Regulators. The evening

will also include a pre-bout featuring

skaters from Fergus Falls, Jamestown, Bis-

marck, Williston and Grand Rapids - who

will be skating as Carries vs. Prom Queens.

The theme for our first bout, is Prom. One

of our goals as a league is to give b

our community and for our first bo

selected UND's Nonprofit Leadershi

dent Association (NLSA). Every s

the NLSA has a large dress sale wher

sell formal wear for area students w

on the hunt for an affordable prom

On the night of our bout, we will blecting gently used formal wear, je

purses, etc. that can be used to help

one rock their prom!

A5: What makes roller derby s

to play and watch?

PRR: It is definitely somethin

everyone needs to experience. Each

has developed an alter ego that they

skate. You end up with these craz

tumes and names (Shannibal Lecter,

Smack-a-chick, Jackie O'Sassin).

A Bout To Remember

The University of North Dakota

Department of Theatre Artspresents Edgar Lee Masters

Spoon River Anthology Febru-

ary 22-26, 2011 in the Burtness Lab The-

atre.Spoon River is a dramatic adaptation of

Edgar Lee Masters' 1915 anthology of

poems about life in the fictional small town

of Spoon River. The book features over 200characters reflecting from beyond the grave

about their lives, and the play uses 60 of

those epitaphs as the foundation for mono-logues and original songs. Masters pub-

lished Spoon River Anthology to great ac-

claim and controversy in 1915. The 244free-verse poems tore through the sem-

blance of civility that covered small-town

America and exposed the raw passions that

controlled the lives of its citizens.Set in a cemetery of the fictional town of

Spoon River, Illinois, the monologues are

delivered by the souls of the deceased, who

voice the secrets they guarded during theirdays on earth. Speaking frankly of crushed

dreams and concealed pleasures, the citi-

zens are made equal by the great levelerdeath and no longer hide behind the cour-

tesy and restraint that had so often re-

pressed them in life. Masters gives voiceto the struggle for a meaningful life.

Spoon River was adapted for the stage

by Charles Aidman and ran on Broadway

in 1963. Combining the folksiness of Thor-ton Wilder's Our Town and the unearthli-

ness of Dylan Thomas's Under Milk Wood,

the stage adaptation of Spoon River has the

ability to move an audience to tears as wellas drive them to laughter. In the hands of

skilled actors, this classic is a powerhouse.

The UND production is directed bygraduate student Larisa Netterlund and fea-

tures Kyra Finlinson, Philip Muehe

Shoenborn, Therese Borkenhagen, WPanKratz, Nick McConnel and Kje

Trooien.

Productions are at 7:30 p.m. Feb

22-26 in the Burtness Lab Theatre. Tmay be reserved by calling the Bu

Theatre Box Office at 701-777-2588

UND Theatre Presents Spoon River Antholog

8/7/2019 February 2011 (1)

11/12

After a successful ExtremeNorth Dakota Adventure Race(END-AR) last fall and an Ex-treme North Dakota Spring

Primer Adventure Race (END-SPAR) lastMay, the Extreme North Dakota Racing (EN-Dracing), along with the Greater Grand Forks

Young Professionals (YP), are putting on thesecond annual Extreme North Dakota IcemanTriathlon (END-IT) on February 26 startingat Lincoln Park in Grand Forks.

The END-IT race is in its second year andwill be a race like no other in Grand Forks.The race involves biking, cross country ski-ing, running and sledding along and aroundthe Greenway. The event is open to both anindividual race and a three person relay race.

The relay is a lot less of the physical de-mand so less training is needed to be in-

volved. We also kept the sledding section tomake it more fun, Andy Magness of EN-Dracing said.

The race will begin and end at LincolnPark. The order will be skiing, biking, run-ning, and then sledding. The approximate dis-tances for each leg can be found athttp://www.endracing.com, this site also in-cludes information about each section of therace. One member of a relay team will per-form each of the above sections, but the en-tire team will participate in the final sleddingsection.

The ski section will involve classic crosscountry skiing for three to three and halfmiles along groomed trails some backcoun-try.

The biking section will be about eightmiles and includes paved bike path andsnowmobile trail riding.

The running section will include pavedtrail on the greenway as well as snowmobile

trails for three miles. Short sections will in-volve deeper snow, but, according to Mag-ness, the total distance travelled in suchconditions should not be prohibitive to racers.

The sledding section will include three orfour trips down the sled hill. Racers will haveto travel down the hill via sled, around a coneand back up the hill before sledding backdown and around the next cone. All racingequipment is available to rent for free at theLincoln Park warming house.

So as you can see, this race isnt only for

the extremely fit and can be adapted to fitanyone wanting to have a bit of fun in thesecold winter months. A lot of planning hasgone into this race and with any great race,there are other incentives than just a fun time.

Weve got great community involve-ment. Weve been able to illicit a lot of sup-port for sponsors so were going to have lotsof door prizes. Weve got some nationalsponsors for the top prizes for both the indi-vidual and relay teams, said Magness.

Just for signing up, racers are offered a40% discount on ColdAvenger masks as well

as free armwarmers from Swiftwick.When END-IT was first thought of by

both Team Yogaslackers and the YP, the hopewas to have it as part of the WinterFest

events, but later the two groups decided tomake it a separate weekend to span out theevents available to the public.

We wanted to spread the events out so itgave people more things to do during thewinter, Magness said.

The race has grown tremendously in pop-ularity, so if youre thinking of signing up,youd better do it fast. The cost for individualracers, Yeti Division, $45 and relay teams are$40 per person. There is also a $5 increasefor those who sign up on the day of the race.

Another great thing that has come aboutrecently with ENDracing is that ENDracingis officially a trade name of the larger organ-ization, GroundUP Adventures (GUP) whichis now a registered not-for-profit company in

the state of North Dakota.

It's the first step in a long journeyvelop (essentially from the 'ground thriving adventure based activities hub

upper great plains, said Magness.GUP is hoping to get the ball rolli

spring and will start looking for fundisome ambitious local projects. Some oprojects include a boat house for thRiver. Magness has a lot of ideas to hecommunity utilize the Red River bett

not see it as a dirty river.There isnt a lot of outdoor adv

things like rafting and mountain climbthis area, so when I realized I was gobe here for a while, I decided Id loocreating some outdoor adventure for to enjoy, Magness added. Our whois to bring in some financing to continraces and increase the accessibility to ture activities. One idea is to put a boat

in Lincoln Park.Magness hopes to increase the n

paddlers on the river. He also hopes tyouth camps where adventure skiltaught close to home and on short tripsall these aspirations, Magness is now cing a team to help fulfill these dreams

We've got a few great folks lendintalents to the cause but can always usehelp (in particular on the accounting things) and local participation, so if got an interest in being involved, or justo be kept in the loop, just shoot an emme at groundupadventures@gmailsaid Magness.
