You’ll have to excuse me if Sandpoint and other news of the north sometimes slips into my writing. They say “write what you know,” and I know my hometown and its region pretty well (though one colleague here at Boise Weekly has been known to poke a little fun at me, referring to Sandpoint as the “Marcia Brady of towns: ‘Sandpoint, Sandpoint, Sandpoint.’”)

My associations aside, this week’s news of an oversized shipment of oil refining equipment through the Panhandle is a big deal. BW has covered the movement of so-called megaloads for years—the massive components used for processing crude pulled from the tar sands in Alberta have been a controversy across the Northwest. Bedeviled by lawsuits and subject to protests along their various routes, the mega-loads have been forced to snake their way over ever-more precarious roadways. In Sandpoint, with its nearly-two-mile long bridge over the Pend Oreille River and twisting Highway 200 on the eastern shore of Idaho’s largest lake, that precariousness is given perhaps its most potent visual.

I delve into the issue with a report on Page 8.

Elsewhere in this week’s paper, staff writer Harrison Berry brings readers on a visit to the vision center of the Northwest Science Museum—a project with aspirations to serve as a regional showcase for young earth theories, a euphemism for creationism. From mammoth skulls to Ica stones and a scale model of Noah’s Ark, the NSM would follow a similar pattern as the Creation Museum in Petersburg, Ky., and Creation Adventures Museum in Arcadia, Fla. Find Berry’s piece on Page 11.

Speaking of visions, the Boise Parks and Recreation Department is getting ready to launch a project to modernize two popular swimming pools: Lowell Pool, on 28th Street, and South Pool, at South Junior High School on Shoshone Street.

While both pools have long been beloved neighborhood destinations, the city thinks it’s high time they were brought into the 21st century. Not everyone is that enthusiastic about changing the pools, though, including Councilwoman Lauren McLean, who challenges Parks and Rec to retain the facilities’ character while updating their offerings.

“I think it’s doable, if we’re being creative about it,” McLean told staff writer Jessica Murri.

BILL COPE/OPINION

ASK BILL ABOUT IT

Ouch! You just had to ask me that, huh?

Yoo-hoo. It’s me again, and I remembered what it was I wanted to ask you about! It was just like you said how if I relax, it would come back to me. And that’s exactly what happened, only I wasn’t relaxed and it didn’t come back to me so much as got thrown in my face.

What happened was, I asked my friend Dottie to come over and help me plan out an agenda for the next Cope’s-Latest-Column Discussion Group, which I should tell you is behind on what the latest column is. Six weeks, that’s how far behind we are. At the next meeting we will be discussing “The Museum of Make-Believe” from six weeks ago, which is either poking fun at creationism, or not doing that, which is why we have a discussion group to figure out what you are really saying when you say things. Dottie thinks you are poking fun at creationism and she doesn’t think it’s very funny because she goes to church three times a week in one of those churches that teaches whatever the Bible says happened is exactly what happened, and I told her that it’s possible you are really only pretending to poke fun at creationism and that you are really poking fun at how we are just supposed to believe anything a scientist says, even if there isn’t a single person around who ever saw anything evolve into anything else or was there to see that Big Bang Theory or any of that stuff. So Dottie was saying that when the Rapture comes, you will be one of the left behinders and that after the big war between God and Satan, you will go to Hell along with Hitler and Darwin and Jerry Springer and the Jews.

Which made me pretty darn mad and I said, “Dottie, I hope you’re not saying that you think the Jews will all go to Hell, because my Bible says they are the Chosen People!” and as soon as I said that, I remembered what it was I wanted to ask you.

I thought of it in the first place because of all this horribleness going on in Israel right now with all the rockets and little blown-up children and dust all over everything including the little children, which really never seems to stop does it? Ever since I was a little girl, it seems like it’s one thing after another between those Jewish people and those Arab people. Which got me to thinking how if that is what it means to be God’s Chosen People, I’d rather not ever be one, if you see what I mean. And besides, sometimes it seems like those Israelis are as bad as all of God’s not chosen people, what with all the killing and suffering they cause. Not that the Arab people are any better about causing killing and suffering. But wouldn’t you think that God’s Chosen People would be a little better at not causing killing and suffering than God’s not chosen people? Instead, they seem to be a lot better at it.

So anyhow, my question I couldn’t remember before but do now is this. Bill, do you believe that the Jewish people are God’s Chosen People?

Oh, and I’m sorry about Dottie saying you will go to Hell. But there’s always a chance she might be wrong, you know.

—Anonymous from Cope’s-Latest-Column Discussion Group UUU Oh Dear Anon, Why don‘t you ask me something easy, like “What is the meaning of life?” At least, if I tried to answer that one, I wouldn’t piss off just about every living soul from here to Karachi. But what the hell, I’ll give it a shot.

Do I believe the Jews are God’s Chosen People? Well, Anon, if I believed in a god (which I don’t), and if I believed that god was anything like the one in your pal Dottie’s Bible (which I don’t), then I suppose I could stretch my imagination enough to believe that out of all the tribes and clans and ethnicities and races and theologies on this planet, Dottie’s god picked just one bunch of desert dwelling goat-herders to be his teacher’s pets, as opposed to all those other folks who were every bit as sure they were special to their god (or gods).

So the answer is, No, I do not believe the Jews (or anybody else) are God’s Chosen People.

But of course, even if the Israelites were God’s Chosen People, that wouldn’t make what’s happening over there in the “Holy Lands”—(ha!)—any more acceptable, would it? I don’t for a second think that the Israeli authorities don’t have the right and obligation to protect their citizens. But if anyone should be ultra sensitive to the mass slaughter of civilians, or what it does to a people when they are denied everything from their homeland to their humanity, you’d think it would be the Jews.

I don’t pretend to know how to end this crap. All I know is, since sticking our nose into it from the founding of Israel to the present, the United States has been drawn deeper and deeper into an abyss that neither side seems willing to find the bottom to. We have paid dearly for that involvement, and I don’t just mean that some of the weapons blowing up Palestinian children in Gaza have an American taxpayer’s signature on them.

No, I have little doubt that without our often-unexamined allegiance to Israel, without the military might—so much of which we supplied—with which they have devastated their enemies, and without the superstition among so many religious Americans that we must never question our commitment to one side of a never-ending conflict simply because they are “God’s Chosen People,” there would have never been a 9/11, nor all that followed. And the worst part is, I have a feeling it’s just getting started.

Now, Anon, I advise you to stand back. I expect a truckload of angry will be rolling in any minute now.

OPINION/JOHN REMBER

WHISTLING PAST THE GRAVEYARD Morale exercises and other pitfalls

The Sun Valley Summer Symphony is having its season again. Julie and I have begun our pilgrimages over Galena Summit to its concerts. We’re hoping to attend six or eight of them this August, as lawn people rather than as amphitheater people.

Lawn people stay outside the Sun Valley Pavilion. They bring their own chairs and blankets. They stand up and wave at friends and neighbors. They listen to the music over loudspeakers, and watch the musicians on Sun Valley’s late-model jumbotron, all the while eating from picnic baskets and drinking wine.

Amphitheater people are more serious.

Inside the Pavilion, they see the performers face-to-face and hear them instrument-to-ear.

Nobody talks during the solos. They dress better and drink less. They leave their children’s and grandchildren’s small children at home.

They study programs like scroll fragments.

They know the musicians, as the musicians often stay in their guest houses and attend their parties. They come later and they leave earlier.

It’s hard to say which group has the better experience. Julie and I have tried both. We prefer the lawn except when it’s pouring rain. The wine and food are factors. So are the wandering, laughing children; the inappropriate lawnperson applause between movements; and the occasional lawn person’s really inappropriate relationship with Spandex and Lycra. We stay after the concert, watching people until lawn and amphitheater are empty. Then we drive to the Ketchum Grill for dessert before heading back over the summit, doing our wary best to avoid the 10 or 15 deer that cross the road in front of us on the way home.

It’s a morale-building exercise. The music incarnates the beauty and generosity and genius that humans reach when they’re given the chance. When I look at the world-class artists on the Pavilion stage, I think that every one of them was once a beginner—a lucky beginner, one with tendencies toward self-discipline and self-denial and hard work, one with loving family members in a culture dedicated to education. In a present where war and political corruption deny billions of children food, families and the slightest dream of an education, these terribly accomplished people demonstrate a path to a brighter, better future.

(An aside: Few of the musicians are products of Idaho education. Draw your own conclusions. My conclusion is that real education is more expensive and dedicated to music, arts and the humanities than Idaho’s priorities reflect. Idaho has the ability to educate our young people for excellence, but won’t devote the effort, thought or resources to do it. Instead, we channel huge sums to football, getting for our efforts NCAA mid-major status, brain-damaged kids, a population dulled to mediocrity by bread-and-circuses, and an

annual spectacle of rape and assault charges.)

Back to morale. One of my great joys at a Sun Valley Summer Symphony concert is that I’m not as old as most of the audience, many of whom are evidence that you can get to 90 or 95 and still get out and enjoy life and have your wits about you.

Not all brains turn to cottage cheese upon retirement, although I suspect that wealth, education, supporting family and friends, and a deep interest in the world have a lot to do with how old, sharp and happy these folks are.

(Another aside: Old folks, sharp or not, happy or not, worth it or not, demand huge chunks of a society’s resources. Unlike children, they often have the political power to get them. The enclave of Sun Valley wouldn’t exist as the world’s finest geriatric ski resort/golf course/concert venue/spa if this weren’t true.)

I leave the concerts with a spring in my step and a tune in my head. At such times, I’m grateful for the additional decades of graceful aging—if any—the future holds for me.

A dark spot in this picture: On our way to and from the concerts, we pass Ernest Hemingway’s grave. The cars of other, less euphoric and more purposeful pilgrims are in the cemetery’s parking lot, and if you know where to look you might see two or three of them standing grimly around the author’s slab, which is often as not littered with half-full Jack Daniel’s bottles, wildflower bouquets, gaping Gauloises packs, empty shotgun shells, sprinkler-sodden blank books. These are offerings, each with its element of perversity, but each no doubt sincere.

It’s safe to say Hemingway didn’t age gracefully. As someone years older than he was when he put the final punctuation mark on his work, I can also say he was at his best in his 20s and early 30s. In his later decades, his writing got self-indulgent and fame-conscious.

Even The Old Man and the Sea bears marks of having been drafted decades earlier.

Even before his shock treatments, Hemingway must have gotten weirded out by the people who worshipfully followed him around Ketchum grocery stores, buying the same items he did. He must have wondered what it meant to be a fixture in Sun Valley publicity materials. He must have awoken to lucid 4 a.m. moments where he saw that his paranoia, however justified, was making his life a prison.

The question, for those who aren’t willing to leave the field as Hemingway did, is how to enjoy living as artists and humanists, still seeking skills and knowledge and still reaching for excellence, all the while recognizing the terrible enormity of life. It’s a serious inquiry, even for lawn people. There are people in Sun Valley who are posing some answers.

They’re playing music, and they’re worth going to see.

CAMERA READY Ada County Sheriff’s Office rolls out body cameras for deputies

The Boise State Alumni Building will be the scene of a significant fire Monday, Aug. 18.

BOISE STATE’S BIG BURN

ZACH HAGADONE On a sunny September morning in 2012, Christian Nicholas Buquet was sitting in a car parked outside a brick-faced apartment building near 11th Street and Lakeside Avenue in Coeur d’Alene. Witnesses later said they saw a female behind the wheel and another man in the back seat. At about 11 a.m., 19-yearold Buquet stepped out of the passenger-side seat and fired two shots from a semiautomatic handgun at the man in the back of the car.

The driver and the victim, 29-year-old Frank James, ran from the vehicle while Buquet jumped in the driver’s seat and sped off—firing at three bystanders along the way. No bystanders were injured, though James had been shot in the chest.

Buquet, who was arrested in 2011 for attempted robbery, led Coeur d’Alene police on a high-speed chase through the city—firing out of his car window at officers—until losing control on a winding lakeside road nearly 7 miles outside of town.

As four officers stopped to engage Buquet, he continued firing. Police returned fire, ultimately hitting Buquet and his vehicle with more than 70 rounds. He died on the scene.

The chase and shootout were captured by body cameras worn by officers with the Coeur d’Alene Police Department—a technology that had been rolled out about a month before. According to CAPD Sgt. Bill Tilson, the cameras allowed the incident to be viewed from multiple first-person perspectives, going a long way toward enabling the Kootenai County Prosecutor’s Office to conclude in February 2014 that the shooting was justified.

“It’s as close as we can get to, ‘Here’s what the officer saw,’” Tilson said. “There’s just a ton of examples like that.”

The Ada County Sheriff’s Office is joining CAPD as the latest Idaho law enforcement agency to equip officers with body cameras— in the case of ACSO, the Taser Axon model, which clips to a deputy’s shirt front. Ada County Sheriff Gary Raney said the technology builds on 30 years of increasing sophistication: first audio recording, then in-car video.

“In-car was getting end-of-life, so rather than spend money on replacing those, we decided to go on-body,” he said, adding that “a lot of times, whatever the activity is takes place outside of the in-car video.” Specifically, only about 11 percent of a given scene is captured due to the fixed view of the car camera.

“We’ll be able to capture whatever we want to capture whenever from a deputy’s perspective,” Raney said.

BOI S EW EEKLY.COM

The Ada County Sheriff’s Office will ultimately equip 70 on-duty patrol deputies with body cameras, which, including data storage costs, carry a total price of about $800 each.

Ada County began incorporating the body cameras on July 31, with plans to equip deputies with the technology five at a time each week until all 70 on-duty patrol deputies have a camera.

Priced at $200 apiece, the pager-sized cameras record an MP4 video file that is uploaded to ACSO’s servers. Data storage is the biggest expense, costing about $800 per camera. Taken together, that’s $70,000—in line with replacing the in-car video systems, Raney said.

“I think it’s going to help the deputies,” he said.

The technology is also meant to help members of the community by providing more transparency and officer accountability—that is, if the right policies are in place.

“We believe that body-mounted cameras can both protect the officer and the citizen,” ACLU of Idaho Interim Executive Director Leo Morales told Boise Weekly in an email.

“The cameras should be turned on at all times when the officer has an encounter with the citizen in the public domain. If officers are allowed to use their discretion of when to turn on or turn off the camera, then this discretion can lead to creative editing of what they film.”

Morales went on to state that video editing should be prohibited or “clear standards should be set to ensure it doesn’t violate the rights of individuals involved, and data storage policies should not only be consistent among law enforcement agencies across the state, but members of the public must be able to access videos.”

When the Spokane Police Department, in Spokane, Wash., drafted its body-camera policy, the ACLU of Washington took exception to a number of its data storage, image editing and recording guidelines. Regarding the latter, it should be noted that Washing-

ton requires both parties to consent to being recorded. Idaho has no such law.

“Please don’t compare us to Spokane.

They have some problems,” Raney said, referring to the department’s longtime issues with use of force and community relations.

“If you were to send us a public records request … we could go and, if proper, blur the faces,” he said. “They’re public record, with exceptions. People will be able to access that.

We’re not afraid of that.”

ACSO’s body-cam policy directs deputies to record all vehicle pursuits, traffic stops, investigative contacts, confrontations, use of force, crimes in progress, enforcement activities and “any situation or event that the deputy through training and experience believes should be recorded.”

The cameras are not to be turned off until a situation has concluded, unless “continued recording is of no value” for a variety of reasons. Before deactivating a camera, policy directs that a deputy state the reason for turning off the camera.

Once uploaded, deputies don’t have the ability to edit video, and files will be stored for at least two years—in perpetuity “if it’s really serious, like a murder,” Raney said.

Those policies are similar to the ones in place at the Coeur d’Alene Police Department, where Tilson said the technology has greatly improved officers’ ability to respond to community complaints.

“If someone complains about a rude officer, we can now look at the video and make a determination,” he said. “It’s a valuable tool for law enforcement, it really is.”

For Raney’s part, he’s looks forward to being able to showcase the work of his deputies.

“It’s a great PR tool. It’s a great validation tool,” he said. “We don’t just write tickets and track down criminals; we do a lot of other things.”

Nothing says back to school like a good, old-fashioned bonfire. Boise State University has a whopper planned, but students aren’t invited—or anyone else for that matter, save the Boise Fire Department.

In the early morning hours of Monday, Aug. 18, a few days before students and faculty launch the fall semester, a Boise State landmark will go up in flames. Don’t worr y. It’s supposed to. In preparation for construction of a new alumni center, Boise State and the Boise Fire Depar tment have agreed to torch the building and allow firefighters a unique training oppor tunity.

Preparations will begin Friday, Aug. 15, when firefighters will stuff the building with wooden pallets and straw to fuel the fire.

All overhead light fixtures, exit signs and any removable hazards will be disposed of through the weekend. Crews will also take chainsaws to the roof to ventilate the fire.

Then, at 7 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 18, barricades will deny access to Grant Street and University Avenue as a series of fires are set through the morning hour. The total burn-down is expected to take as long as three hours, due to the size of the building and the remains will be allowed to burn until most of the wood is consumed.

On-duty crews will patrol the site through the night to snuff out any embers.

Historical buffs may be interested in knowing that the building was constructed in 1962 by two Boise opthamologists, Drs. Bob Adkins and Bob Fulwyler, to ser ve as their practice. The building was refurbished by the Boise State Alumni Association in the late 1990s.

Once the rubble is cleared away, the alumni Association will begin building its new home on a much bigger footprint, covering 43,000 square feet of the entire site of the current alumni center, as well as the adjacent parking lot.

“I think the university is looking at this as an east end gateway into the campus,” alumni association director Jennifer Wheeler told Boise Weekly in 2012, when the plans were first unveiled.

But it has taken some time to secure funding for the new center, priced at around $15 million, raised from association members.

“There’s no state money in it, no student money in it, no university money in it,” said Wheeler.

According to the association, the new center “will encourage the rekindling of lifelong friendships and it will ignite school spirit.”

First things first, as Boise firefighters do a bit of their own igniting on Aug. 18.

BEARING THE LOAD The North End Organic Nursery is heading West, but keeping its “North” brand.

NORTH MEETS WEST Yes, they have designs to move to Boise’s West End, but the folks at the Nor th End Organic Nurser y say they still want to keep their “Nor th End” brand.

Owner Lindsay Schramm set down NEON’s roots in the fall of 2009, and instantly busted the traditional greenhouse business model with seed swaps, salsa festivals, food truck rallies and something called Har vest Pa-Brew-Za. The nurser y weathered good times and bad—it sur vived a par ticularly nasty squabble in 2011, when United Water officials dug up a good chunk of Hill Road, waylaying a hefty amount of NEON’s business (BW, News, “Hell Road,” Oct. 5, 2011). But sur vive it they did; and now Schramm said it’s time to pull up stakes.

“We’re absolutely moving,” she told Boise Weekly. “The location we’re on now is already sold. It was too expensive for us to be here, so we sold it.”

Indeed, Boise-based KB Financial has plans to build 28 townhomes on the 3.3 acres at 2350 W. Hill Road, meaning NEON needs a new home as well.

“Do you know where the new West End Food Truck Park is [2403 W. Fairview Ave.]? We would be right next door,” Schramm told BW. “The old Boise Marine Building sits there, and Urban Ascent is right behind it. We want to renovate the old building, bring it back to life and relandscape the whole area.”

Plans for a new 5,000-square-foot NEON shop would be about four times larger than the existing Hill Road operation.

“We would have less overall land, but much more reusable land,” said Schramm.

But a few things remain to be done.

“There are cer tain requirements that we still need met,” Boise city planner Todd Tucker told BW, without going into detail.

“A meeting with the Planning and Zoning Commission may get pushed back to October.”

Schramm said when the city’s ready, NEON will be ready.

“We want to star t tenant improvements in Fair view in October and move in by Januar y 2015,” she said.

And how about that name?

“We wouldn’t change our name. Nor th End Organic Nurser y has a really loyal following. We would still be in the same zip code [83702],” she said. “Maybe we’ll have to incorporate some West End wording into our brand. We might consider renaming ourselves later on, but not initially.”

En route to a Montana refinery, a mega-load moves through North Idaho ZACH HAGADONE They’ve crawled up mountainsides, wound their way along rivers and inched across prairies, but everywhere they’ve gone, so-called mega-loads of oil refining equipment bound for the Alberta tar sands have been controversial. Blocked by protest and legal action from using scenic U.S. Highway 12 as a route to Montana and beyond, the oversized shipments have been forced to find alternative passage.

This time, one such load—a 926,000-pound piece of a hydrocracker bound for the Calumet refinery in Great Falls, Mont.—is headed north on U.S. 95, then east on Idaho Highway 200.

The route will take it from Lewiston to Moscow, then to Coeur d’Alene and, during its final leg in Idaho, across one of the most unique pieces of infrastructure in Idaho: the 2-mile Long Bridge that stretches across the mouth of the Pend Oreille River and into Sandpoint. From there, it will access Highway 200 and make its way along the twisting, federally designated scenic byway that follows the eastern shore of Lake Pend Oreille, through Clark Fork and into Montana.

The Idaho Transportation Department issued a permit for the over-legal load, carried by transport company Bigge Crane, on Aug. 8.

The shipment entered Idaho on Aug. 10, and began its northward trek on U.S. 95. It is expected to move through Sandpoint on Sunday, Aug. 17, or if “things go real well,” according to ITD spokesman Marvin Fenn, as early as Thursday, Aug. 14. The load can only travel between the hours of 10 p.m.-5:30 a.m., and cannot move Friday or Saturday night.

According to ITD spokesman Adam Rush, the 300-foot-long, 21-foot-wide load will take about 16 minutes to cross the Long Bridge.

Fully loaded, and with support vehicles, the shipment weighs more than 1 million pounds.

“Idaho State Police will be escorting the transport and if there’s an emergency vehicle that needs to use the Long Bridge, they’ll be able to coordinate with ISP to make arrangements,” he said.

The Bigge Crane load replaces a 1.6 million-pound shipment from Mammoet USA. Mammoet withdrew its permit and the hydrocracker was broken up into three pieces, with two moved by rail.

No matter the shipper or the time, Helen Yost said protesters from her organization, Wild Idaho Rising Tide, will be there to demonstrate.

The pilings for the first Long Bridge were driven in 1908. The latest (and fourth) incarnation of the Long Bridge was completed in 1981.

“The people in Sandpoint have never, ever been offered a public meeting and people are pretty angry about it,” Yost said. “Highway 95 has served as kind of the sacrifice zone for U.S. 12. … We’re definitely planning protests in Sandpoint.”

Moscow-based Wild Idaho Rising Tide has dogged mega-loads around the state, helping organize road blockades, mounting sign-wielding demonstrations, and documenting mega-load progress since they first started wending through Idaho as part of the Canadian oil boom.

Approximately the length of NASA rockets, the mammoth loads take up two lanes of traffic, travel with an entourage of support vehicles and move at speeds of between 5 and 36 miles per hour. Their size and speed have been criticized as hampering emergency vehicles, their weight has been blamed for damage to roads and bridges, and their mission has been demonized for supporting the tar sands oil project—what many have called the most environmentally disastrous industrial undertaking on Earth.

“It’s crazy that they’re even trying to move these things through the Mountain West,” Yost said, adding that expansion at the Calumet refinery in Great Falls, Mont., represents a troubling development.

“We’ve seen documents that make it look like they want to triple its size,” she said. “It looks totally like it’s a tar sands refinery, taking crude from the Bakken shale area.”

Yost is also disturbed that mega-load manufacturing seems to be moving east.

“They’re shipping smaller loads to remote assembly facilities—that’s how they’re getting around us,” she said. “From there it’s a beeline on these little tiny roads in the Rocky Mountain Front up to the tar sands in Alberta.”

According to The River Journal, a monthly news magazine based in Clark Fork, the load

moving across the Long Bridge will not only block most of the bridge during its traverse, but its weight will require construction of a temporary, or “jumper,” bridge near the lakeshore hamlet of Hope. Not to mention its potential impacts on the scenic byway itself.

“It’s said to be the heaviest thing to ever be haul on Hwy. 95; the previous record holder only weighed 400,000 pounds,” wrote TRJ Publisher Trish Gannon.

Rush told BW that “the bridges are a factor” in evaluating the mega-load route, and “there is a lot of research and planning and engineering that goes into that kind of move.”

The Long Bridge span was built in 1981 and stretches 1.1 miles over water, making it one of the longest causeway bridges in the country.

“That’s a lot of weight to put on a bridge that’s out over the water for more than a mile,” Yost said.

Rush said axles on the trailer carrying the load are positioned in such a way as to spread the weight evenly: “It’s not sitting on one focal point.”

Sandpoint Mayor Carrie Logan isn’t worried about it.

“I’m sure they look at what loads all the bridges and ramps can take, and that’s part of the analysis and permitting—what weight can go on the roads,” she told BW. “It doesn’t disrupt anything for us, unless they break down,” Logan added. “I think the time of night they’re picking to do it, there’s not any activity on the road. The one problem is given how wide it is—I think it’s as wide as the bridge—you worry about emergency vehicles.”

That problem can be mitigated by relying on fire and ambulance services from neighboring communities and the county sheriff’s office, she said.

“I’m not worried about it,” said Logan.

“I’m just really curious.”

CITIZEN OF TH EW EE K

OUR CONVERSATION: And how about the cabin itself?

The city of Boise owns it and very generously allows us to be here under a 50-year lease.

When you took this job in 2013, what did The Cabin’s board tell you it was looking for?

To take The Cabin to the next step. The Cabin has well-respected programs. Nobody needs to fix those, but we need to reach out.

Let’s talk about your Readings and Conversations series. You continue to bring in a stunning list of literary rock stars.

Yes, it’s hard and there are some people we may not get, but we have a history of great writers, plus they love our smart audiences.

Reach out to whom?

Younger people, more children, maybe people who don’t know who we are.

JEREMY LANNINGHAM

And how do you do that?

I’m working on it every day. Maybe we bring in a diversity of voices that we haven’t heard before. We’re doing a blogging workshop this fall and we’re always putting together new camps.

Speaking of which, The Cabin becomes a very different place during the summer.

We’re bursting at the seams and it’s really fun. We have about 600-700 kids in about eight camps per week. And every Friday afternoon we do two readings on the lawn.

Going forward, how might you want to do things at The Cabin a bit differently?

We want people to know that The Cabin is fun, and storytelling is joyful.

But when some adults hear “fun,” they may not think that includes them?

Let me rephrase that. Storytelling is joyful, but it’s not necessarily fun, silly or flippant.

The same piece of writing can be hilarious and heartbreaking on the next page. Our job is to help people tell those stories, whatever those stories are, and that includes everyone.

You must often hear people say that they’re not “real writers.”

But they are. I ask them, “Do you tell stories?” We’re all real writers and certainly real readers. There’s a space here for everyone.

Do people come to The Cabin, hoping to be launched into the world of professional writing?

Sometimes.

BRITT UDESEN The Cabin’s executive director talks about reading, writing and Sherman Alexie GEORGE PRENTICE When Britt Udesen graduated from Macalester College in her home state of Minnesota, she had one big dream: to move to Alaska.

“I like to trout fish, I like to hike the mountains and I wanted to be somewhere beautiful,” she said. Then her older brother’s best friend from college stopped her cold.

“What do you want in Alaska? I can get you all of that in Sun Valley, plus daylight and a symphony,” he told Udesen.

Soon thereafter, she took a job at Ketchum’s Knob Hill Inn. She stayed in Idaho for a year, left to soothe a restless heart—she was an educator in Atlanta, Minneapolis and even the Czech Republic—but returned to the Gem State in 2004 as director of education and humanities for the Sun Valley Center for the Arts.

“And I loved my job in Sun Valley, but I said years ago that the only reason I would leave would be to work at The Cabin,” she told Boise Weekly.

Indeed, Udesen became the executive director of The Cabin in Boise in March 2013. With a beautiful painting of northern Minnesota birch trees by artist Paul Bergeron adorning her office at The Cabin, and a patient and friendly border collie named Lou lying nearby, Udesen, 38, talked with BW about her passion for the written and spoken word.

Not every great writer is a great speaker.

Right. we don’t want boring. snooze-fest people. We rely on our community to tell us, “I just saw so-and-so and she was amazing.”

Which brings us to Sherman Alexie [who The Cabin will host March 11, 2015].

We started a conversation in March 2013 and it all happened. We started to talk to him before the kerfuffle happened [Idaho made national headlines in April when the Meridian School District pulled an Alexie book from a reading list].

Were you worried that he might back out when the controversy in Meridian erupted?

We didn’t want anyone to think we were disrespecting their beliefs. At the same time, I think it’s a great book and I stand by that.

Where does The Cabin fall into the community conversation, about this book specifically, and the broader discussion about diversity?

We’ve not really been invited to be part of a conversation about books in our community.

I’m stunned by that.

Choosing Sherman Alexie was an artistic decision, not a political one.

You must admit that there is a secret sauce in becoming a professional writer and you can taste that here at The Cabin. Whether someone is paid a lot of money or not to write is almost unimportant. Yes? Yes, and that’s the inspiration part of who we are. We hire a lot of great professional writers here and when you work with professionals, even in an hourlong workshop, you walk away as a better writer than you were before.

We know that The Cabin is a nonprofit, but how do you keep the lights on? Membership?

We have generous members, plus grants, sponsorships, our camps and workshops, and our reading conversation series just about covers the cost of our speakers.

What’s your operating budget?

Just under $500,000.

So, why don’t you facilitate that community conversation?

I would love to.

Shouldn’t The Cabin be somewhere in the center of that dialogue?

What a great idea. We should do that.

Maybe this is the moment to push it forward.

Hollow Wood’s EP release is set for Tuesday, Aug. 19, 6 p.m., at the Record Exchange.

HOLLOW WOOD SPRINGS INTO THE FUTURE WITH NEW EP, SEASONS Hollow Wood’s debut EP, Seasons, features the song “Oh My God,” which can be heard on 94.9 The River—but it’s not exactly a standard pop tune.

“We have a hundred years full of pain and fear,” the band sings. “Open the door and ‘Oh my God,’ I screamed. / It’s a horror scene, white walls you and me. / Open the door and ‘Oh my God,’ I screamed.”

But between the song’s sprightly rhythm, ringing guitar hook and rousing vocals, the lyrics don’t sound despairing or fearful. Instead, lead singer Adam Jones and his bandmates sound as if they can’t wait to confront the “horror scene” they’re singing about.

That spirit of anticipation and engagement has helped Hollow Wood build a following in Boise and beyond. The young band signed with Red Light Management—whose clients include Alabama Shakes, Phish and Ben Harper—and Hollow Wood will hold an EP release show at The Record Exchange at 6 p.m., Tuesday, Aug. 19.

Hollow Wood recorded Seasons and a follow-up EP (to be released later this year), at the home of Mark Doubleday. The local musician-engineer reached out to Hollow Wood after being blown away by a YouTube video for the song “Little Bird.”

Doubleday and Joel Hager, of Z-Shift Studios, approached Jones at a Neurolux show and told him, “Hey, we want to record a couple of your songs for free. Will you let us do that?”

Doubleday—who now serves as the band’s manager—sees his and Hager’s offer as following a theme in Hollow Wood’s career.

“At the end of the day, it’s all about [the fact that] these guys are special,” Doubleday said. “Regardless of whether or not I’m involved, I want to help. That’s been a common denominator for a lot of people that have worked with them.”

Although Hollow Wood reluctantly parted ways with some of its charter members— specifically cellist Danika McClure, violinist Katelynne Jones and singers Lindsay Wright and Shelby Juri—Doubleday believes the band is as strong as ever. He’s particularly pleased with the recent addition of Calico’s Ruby Somoza and the new material that the group is working on.

He sees the band as “living in the moment but never sitting back to much to enjoy it because there’s a lot of work to do.”

There’s nothing subtle about Salt Lake sludge-doom band SubRosa, but there’s plenty of substance.

thought it would be delicate and all that,” Vernon said. “But luckily, Sarah was open to experimenting. And from the beginning, she’s had this mind to experiment and to make her instrument almost like a noise instrument rather than a violin.”

Today, Vernon considers the addition an indispensable part of SubRosa’s sound.

“People talk about our atmosphere and our vibe a lot, and I attribute that to violins,” she said. “It’s at least 90 percent of it.”

SubRosa’s musical heaviness is matched by the weight of Vernon’s lyrics. For instance, “Beneath the Crown” from No Help was inspired by a book she read on the eugenics movement in America. For Vernon, such dark subject matter isn’t mere sensationalism.

“I kind of see SubRosa as my outlet for activism, honestly,” she said. “I mean, it’s not like I’m trying to preach or shove a message down anyone’s throat, but it’s definitely a way to express myself about things that bother me or that I think is wrong with the world or just things that personally upset me. And yeah, I do think about the fact that I’m spreading awareness about certain issues in some of the songs.”

Vernon will continue to voice her feelings: After finishing its current schedule of shows, SubRosa plans to spend six months working on new material. In the meantime, Vernon is looking forward to playing with Wolvserpent, whose music she admires (as of press time, Crowbath replaced Wolvserpent as SubRosa’s Aug. 15 opener).

“It’s amazing how you can listen to the sound of a band … and kind of grasp the message that a musician is trying to get across or the feelings that they’re trying to convey,” Vernon said. “I just think it’s amazing.”

On the midway, favorite rides are back, including the 70 mph Turbo Force, the Spin Out (one of only eight in carnivals traveling the United States) and the Starship 3000, which mimics a trip into space. New rides have been added as well, including the Vertigo, which swings passengers around 100 feet above the ground; the Big Top, a “circus-themed funhouse”; and the White Water Log Flume (flying down a waterslide in August? Yes, please). As always, live concerts are a huge draw and, also as always, are free with admission.

This year’s musical guests span genres and eras: ’90s alt-rockers Seether; country music duo Montgomery Gentry; another country music duo, Thompson Square; and classic rock icons The Doobie Brothers.

BMC’s mostly nylon, mostly skin-tight clothes speak to the company’s motive to create a “worldwide community of unbelievably fierce, stylish ladies.”

The company recently released “Princesses and Villains,” a Disney-inspired line with prints from a number of favorites, including 101 Dalmatians, Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, The Little Mermaid and Mulan. To go with the line, BMC also released a set of interactive look-books, so you can see the stor y of the clothes come to life.

If donning designs of your favorite film or book isn’t really your thing, but statement pieces like leggings, bandeaus, catsuits and skater dresses are, BMC has an almost over whelming selection in plain colors and prints— from simple stripes to graphic designs like cherr y blossoms, ravens, stained glass windows, birds of paradise and even the Great Old One himself, Cthulhu.

THE BIG SCREEN/SCREEN

MEH IN THE MOONLIGHT Woody Allen’s Magic in the Moonlight is a summer snooze GEORGE PRENTICE Yes, Magic in the Moonlight, Woody Allen’s duller-than-driftwood summer comedy has ample moonlight over the French Riviera; but alas, it has less magic than a sleight-ofhand card trick. And “sleight” is about as much praise as I can muster for this movie, which lands in the bottom tier of Allen’s films and ranks somewhere among his other duds like Hollywood Ending (2002), Anything Else (2003) and 2009’s Whatever Works (2009). What? You haven’t heard of Why so glum? Woody Allen (center) directs Emma Stone (left) and Colin Firth (right) with moonlit mediocrity. those? My point exactly.

This is sad to report, considering that Coamong them—seem to be constructed more in the Moonlight, I heard some boob across lin Firth and Emma Stone do their darndest as plays than motion pictures, and Magic in the aisle say that the movie reminded him of to hold up this pup tent. Firth plays Stanley the Moonlight is a mediocre play at best. It Baker, a snobby, one-dimensional genius with The Great Gatsby. Not likely. Just because establishes artificial tension in the first act by “all the charm of a typhus epidemic.” Stanley Magic has croquet mallets, wingtip collars leaning too heavily on a supporting cast to and a jazz-age soundtrack, it is not great is asked to travel to the Cote d’Azur to build up the arrival of Sophie.

THE GRIM, BRIGHT FUTURE OF SNOWPIERCER On its face, Snowpiercer doesn’t offer much that moviegoers haven’t seen before: A global catastrophe results in a tiny remnant of the human race clinging to survival in an enclosed space where civil society has been reduced to the law of club and fang. Naturally, a hero must come forward to right the scales.

Sprinkle in some fight scenes, and you have The Poseidon Adventure meets Mad Max. Snowpiercer, however, is much more than the sum of its parts. Set on a self-sustaining train powered by a mysterious perpetual motion engine, survivors hurtle through an iceencased world. The rich live in the front, with all the luxuries of their lost civilization, while the poor live in the back, eating bile-colored bars of gelatinous protein to stave off resorting to cannibalism.

Smart writing, stylish filming and masterful BOI S EW EEKLY.COM

Snowpiercer is available on Amazon Instant, Google Play, iTunes and Vudu.

acting (mainly on the part of Tilda Swinton) rescue the film from its melange of tropes, pulling off one of the best sci-fi films in recent memory.

While it’s a bleak vision of the future for humanity, it signals something big for the future of the film industry. Snowpiercer was released in the United States on June 27 on a mere eight screens, but distributor Weinstein Co. chose the revolutionary approach of making the film simultaneously available online through video on demand. The gamble paid off: Snowpiercer pulled in $3.8 million in its first two weeks on VOD, compared to $3.9 million during five weeks in theaters—and that was after expanding to hundreds more screens.

It may be that the VOD release strategy has found a way for smaller, high-quality films to step out of the blockbuster shadow. At the very least, it enables people with small kids to actually see a first-run movie. Either way, it seems to be on the right track.

There is something undeniably charming and protean about actormusician Jenny Lewis. Whether she’s looking pensive in a high-collared, gunny sack dress; smiling sweetly in a sleeveless, flowered summer frock; or wearing a lace-embellished green get-up a la Loretta Lynn while she sings with the Watson Twins, Lewis is still Lewis, able to project both character and self through a TV or computer screen, a radio station or across a cheering crowd of festival goers. Lewis’ ability to be different while staying the same has served her well in both her music and her acting—she’s had roles in movies and television since she was a grade-schooler. She’s so good at what she does, she shines in the video for “Just One of the Guys,” from her new album Voyager (Warner Bros., July 2014), which has cameos by Anne Hathaway, Brie Larson and Kristen Stewart.

For nearly two decades, Austin, Texas-based The Gourds played a big part in making their hometown an epicenter of Americana music, which is defined by americanamusic.org as “contemporary music that incorporates ... country, roots-rock, folk, bluegrass, R&B and blues, resulting in a distinctive rootsoriented sound.” The sad announcement The Gourds were going on hiatus after 19 years together was softened by news that Gourds co-founder Kevin Russell would funnel his energy into side-dish-turned-main-course Shinyribs.

Shinyribs’ also has that special Americana sound, but Russell brings more blues into the mix and sweetens his strong, sometimes gravelly vocals with the occasional rich falsetto. Russell hasn’t done away with the ingredients that made The Gourds— and himself—so special. Instead, he has added new flavors and textures to the Shinyribs recipe, heightening and elevating what The Gourds spent the better part of 20 years getting just right.

MURKY WATERS Recently opened Comba Park boasts some of the most unique features in Boise.

FROM GOATHEADS TO SPLASH PADS AT COMBA PARK Trudy Comba will never forget her 80th birthday, when the city of Boise formally opened Comba Park in West Boise, Aug. 8.

The late morning opening drew many of Comba’s closest friends and colleagues, as well as crowds from neighborhoods around Five Mile and Ustick roads.

The playground filled with kids, laughing and running behind a podium where Mayor Dave Bieter declared Aug. 8 to be Dr. Trudy Comba Day. The mayor, singing into the microphone, led the crowd in “Happy Birthday.”

Comba donated the parcel of land to the city in 2000, after the early child development center she and her husband started in 1980 burned down. Comba’s daughter, Kathryn Metcalfe, lives in New York but has been instrumental in turning the lot into the park that bears her mother’s name.

“I think of 2995 Five Mile Road as a field of dreams,” Metcalfe said. “I remember when mom planted the trees before A Small World Center for Creativity opened. They were $10 a piece. We dug the holes and planted them.”

Doug Holloway, director of the Boise Parks and Recreation Department, said the city worked on the park for four years. Where 3.2 acres of grass, play equipment and a splash park is today was once nothing but weeds.

“There were more goatheads in this park than all of Boise, including the Foothills,” Holloway joked. Now, he calls it “one of the most unique parks we have in our system.”

Potable water flows through the splash pad, which has a giant, inlaid keyboard that plays different tones when the keys are stepped on. The water is then UV-treated and used to irrigate the rest of the lawn.

“It’s the first of its kind in Idaho,” Holloway said. “The [Department of Environmental Quality] actually had a hard time permitting it because they’d never seen anything like it before. Now, we would like to do more of them around the city.”

The playground is also nontraditional, trading monkey bars and slides for a multistory merry-go-round webbed with rope, and three hexagonal domes with climbing holds.

Instead of bark, soft turf covers the ground.

A group of 20 kids holding homemade “Happy Birthday Dr. Trudy” signs handed Comba a dozen colorful balloons. The kids live in the North Pointe apartment complex, which houses mostly refugees. Boise Parks and Rec offers the kids free afterschool and summer activities.

Still to come, two community gardens will be built on-site, giving Boise Urban Garden School a place to grow.

“Thank God, I’m still around to see this,” Comba said.

Parks and Rec proposes facelifts for two municipal pools

BY JESSICA MURRI When Lowell Pool opened on a summer evening in 1953, it drew 250 swimmers, according to the Boise City Department of Arts and History. It was an exciting addition to the 28th Street neighborhood, which at the time included a grocer and a burger joint across the street from the municipal pool.

More than 60 years later, the burger joint is gone but the pool is still a neighborhood landmark; but nothing stays the same forever. Lowell Pool and its sister South Pool, next to South Junior High, are up for modernization.

“They’re both very old swimming pools,” Boise Parks and Recreation Director Doug Holloway told Boise Weekly. “They have a number of maintenance concerns and they’re not 21st century pools.”

Access to the Lowell Pool deck is through a narrow cinderblock hallway lined with showers and changing stalls. Pipes are exposed overhead, and there’s a steep concrete staircase to the outdoor pool.

Holloway sees plenty of reasons to modernize these above-ground pools.

Right now, he said, they’re nothing more than bodies of water equipped with diving boards. He compared Lowell and South with Ivywild Pool, which has diving boards, slides and a kiddie pool with toys. It is also a zero-entry pool, which means it slopes gradually instead of having a 3-foot-deep shallow end—patrons at Ivywild don’t need to have any swimming capability to get in.

Lap swimming is also not an option in the oval-shaped Lowell Pool. Holloway said it isn’t big enough to be used for swimming competitions and “it’s not real familyfriendly.”

Some like the pool as it is, without the “bells and whistles.”

Renda Palmer sat poolside as her 14-year-old daughter swam on a recent Friday afternoon. Her daughter practices five days a week at Lowell as part of the local swim team, and the mother and daughter swim in the neighborhood pool another two or three afternoons a week on top of that.

“This is what we do in the summertime,” said Palmer, who is an art teacher at Longfellow Elementary, giving her the summers off to spend with her kids. “My son was born June 21, 10 years ago and we came the week after he was born.”

Palmer and her kids used to go to the Natatorium on Warm Springs Avenue, but she likes Lowell because it’s off the beaten

Boiseans have been beating the heat at Lowell Pool for 61 years. Now the city wants to upgrade it.

path. Only a dozen other kids and one older couple were swimming alongside her daughter. A blonde teenage lifeguard in a red swimsuit and a fresh Henna tattoo gently reminded the kids, “No running, no running.”

A few other moms sat on towels around the side, tanning in the 100-degree heat.

“The Nat gets overrun with day camps and kids,” Palmer said. “So we started coming to Lowell because it doesn’t have that capability, so it’s not as busy. I mean, there would be 30 or 40 kids and two teenage lifeguards, you know? This is more relaxed.

It feels like your own personal pool.”

Palmer lives near the Boise Co-op, in a neighborhood that doesn’t have a pool, but she’s happy to travel the 20 or so blocks a few times a week to access Lowell. Indeed, the pool draws lots of neighborhoods together, Holloway said.

“It has a unique connection,” he said.

“You can get there from Elm Grove Park, from the North End but also the West End of downtown. It’s an attractive site right there because it can serve a wide range of neighborhoods. There’s a multitude of reasons to rebuild that one.”

Another reason: It’s falling apart. Holloway said it’s nothing urgent, just minor leaks and cracks along the bottom.

“It’s just antiquated. They’re both older pools that need rebuilding,” Holloway said, though he added it doesn’t cost the city much to maintain.

The Boise City Council wasn’t excited about Parks and Rec’s proposal for Lowell and South pools, especially Councilwoman Lauren McLean, who said her kids grew up swimming at Lowell. Even today, she likes to go during the evening swim hours and watch kids bike down from nearby neighborhoods.

“Both South and Lowell pools are, I think, very special for both their architectural uniqueness and for the communities they have created for the kids in those

neighborhoods,” McLean told BW. “So I think it’s really important that we come up with a creative design that reflects the uniqueness of these pools and allows the recreational opportunities that these communities need and deserve.”

The council doesn’t expect the structures of the pools to stay exactly the same, but McLean said keeping the iconic Art Deco entrance as a statue is not enough.

The Art Deco theme is a surprising one.

The Boise City Arts and History Department said Lowell and South pools are possibly some of the last Art Deco buildings built in Boise, since it was a style popular in the ’20s and ’30s, and the pools weren’t built until two decades later. It’s also possible that the pools revived local interest in Art Deco style in the 1950s.

“I challenge the Parks Department to come up with a creative, fun design that pays homage to the past and creates a fun place for our kids,” McLean said.

Holloway is unsure how feasible it is to fit modern-day improvements into a similar structure.

“It would be great to have those pools look like they do now but with slides and cool things,” he said. “If you could wave the magic wand and make it look exactly like it does now, but bring it into the 21st century with a kiddie area and a shallow end, a slide, all the components of a modern-day pool, in that structure, that’s the direction the council wants to go. But that’s for the experts. We’ll just have to get back to the drawing board. I don’t know what that’s going to look like.”

Once a new plan is ironed out, it will have to be approved by the council and allocated funding. That may take years.

“I think it’s doable, if we’re being creative about it,” McLean said. “I think we can meet current needs and keep the history. I imagine an architect would enjoy the creative challenge.”

Much Dutch deliciousness.

Recurring IRON (OVEN) IN THE FIRE Ruth Woods, a retired motorcycle cop, calls herself the “Iron Maiden.” Cooking in Dutch ovens—heavy iron pots with tightfitting lids placed over an open flame—is her passion, and she’s hell-bent on getting others involved, so she started the Dutch Oven Grubbers (DOGS) of Garden Valley. She also organized the inaugural Sportsman’s Challenge Dutch Oven Cook-Off at the Meridian Sportsman’s Warehouse last month.

In the parking lot, Woods prepared jambalaya. She whipped up a dense, sweet beer bread using a bottle of Shock Top’s Honeycrisp Apple Wheat. If pedestrians stopped in front of her pop-up tent, she enlisted them to help her make chile relleno.

“We’re in a rut in our recipes,” one couple said.

“Well, you won’t be in a rut anymore,” Woods replied. “But you might get fat.”

Four teams spent the morning cooking their best for the competition, traveling from Nampa, Garden Valley, Weiser and American Falls.

One team recently took seventh place in the world championship for Dutch oven cooking. Another team, headed by Jim Watson, had never cooked in a Dutch oven before.

But Watson isn’t new to cook-offs—he participated in 36 chili contests one year. He vividly remembers buying his worn black cowboy hat with a snakeskin band with the winnings from a chili cook-off in Nevada in 1994.

By mid-afternoon, each team presented its spread (one main course and one dessert) for the judges. When Woods asked me to judge, I had no problem saying yes.

Team One prepared a short-rib dish with red sauce and mushrooms, garnished with potatoes. The meat: perfectly cooked.

The sauce: nothing extraordinary. The dessert: an immaculate blueberry lemon cake with icing.

Team Two came up with chicken slathered in barbecue sauce and an incredible apple pie with a sugary crunch to the crust.

Team Three’s baby back ribs could have used more seasoning.

The pecan caramel apple pie was too sweet for a second bite.

As for Team Four, Watson filled his Dutch oven with—you guessed it—chili. Spectacular chili. The dessert, however, was a mushy peach dumpling.

Team Two won first place, but the group collectively decided to give the prize, a new Dutch oven, to Watson.

IMBIBE/DRINK SLIVOVITZ AKA PLUM BRANDY

BISTRA SLIVOVITZ, 750 MILLILITERS, $25.70 Since the plum is the national fruit of Serbia, it follows that sljivovica is the national drink.

But if this tipple is at all representative of Serbian slivovitz, then that’s a terrible tragedy. As one taster exclaimed after the harsh ammonia notes of old cheese rinds subsided: “It’s like someone just poured a clump of dirt in my mouth.” Or as another eloquently put it: “It’s like going past the slip-and-slide and hitting asphalt.”

CLEAR CREEK DISTILLERY BLUE PLUM BRANDY, 750 MILLILITERS, $42.95 In addition to producing grappa and calvados, Portland, Ore.’s popular distillery also crafts a lovely, pot-distilled slivovitz made from Italian blue plums. With a clean, lightly floral nose, this sophisticated eau de vie is worlds apart from its Serbian cousin.

Though it’s got a bit of heat on the palate, this brandy mellows out nicely with a couple of ice cubes and its fruity bouquet opens up.

KOENIG DISTILLERY PLUM BRANDY, 375 MILLILITERS, $19.35 With an astoundingly floral nose and hints of juicy, over-ripe plums on the palate, this brandy was by far the tasting panel’s favorite. Distilled slowly in copper pot stills and then aged in clear glass carboys for a minimum of two years, Koenig’s eau de vie is the epitome of elegant, with a silky, almost buttery finish. As one taster exclaimed, “I could drink the whole bottle out of a pint glass,” then added, “I guess that’s why they call it ‘the water of life.’”

FOOD/NEWS K ELS EY HAW ES

Slivovitz is a popular nip in Central and Eastern Europe—stop by a bar in Czech Republic, Croatia, Slovakia, Hungary or Serbia and you’re sure to find a small shot of the potent plum brandy sitting before you. Made from fermented blue plums that are distilled into a high-proof eau de vie, or fruit brandy, slivovitz is not for the faint of heart. At least that’s what I thought until I got my hands on some silky smooth slivovitz made stateside.

THE LOCAL TAKES OVER GREEN CHILE SPACE And Berryhill launches a new, all-day menu TARA MORGAN In England, a neighborhood pub is colloquially referred to as “the local.” And that’s what sisters Rebecca and Katie Blackwell had in mind when they dubbed their new wine and beer bar The Local. The duo is transforming the former Green Chile space at 5616 W. State St. into a cozy neighborhood haunt.

“Whenever we want to go out somewhere in this area, there’s really limited choices for somewhere that is quiet where you can actually have a conversation and hear each other in a relaxed atmosphere,” said Katie. “So we decided we wanted to create a neighborhood hangout for an adult crowd.”

Katie said they’re going for a “contemporary, modern, classy” vibe and that they’ve paid particular attention to the acoustics in the space.

“We have really high ceilings in part of it so we put carpet in so that you’ll be able to hear the people that you’re there with while you’re having a conversation,” said Katie. “We put in a garage door so we’ll have some patio seating. It’s going to be facing Bloom Street, so you’ll get a nice view of the Gyro Shack. We’re going to put some plants and things out there to make it a little bit more aesthetically pleasing.”

In addition to offering eight Northwest craft beers on tap, The Local will also serve around 20 wines by the glass and a small plates menu to complement the beer and wine list.

“We’re going to serve pretzels—like the big, warm pretzels—and crostinis with different cheeses and then we’re going to have cheeseboards. We’ll have tacos. … We’re going to do bowls of salad to share,” said Katie. “It’s small plates, but our main focus is beer and wine.”

Katie said construction on the space is “99 percent done” and that they’re still waiting on kitchen equipment and licensing before they can officially open.

“We’ve kind of quit having a projected opening date because it’s gone from June to August, now. It’ll be definitely sometime in August/September,” said Katie.

IN THE DISTRICT COURT FOR THE FOURTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT FOR THE STATE OF IDAHO, IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF ADA In the Matter of the Name Change of: NATHAN ALEXANDER TUBACH, Minor Child (d/o/b: 12/08/1998) Shana Lynn Tubach (biological mother) Martin Randal Tubach (biological father) Petitioners.

Case No. CV NC 14-12342

NOTICE OF HEARING A Petition for Name Change by Shana Lynn Tubach and Martin Randal Tubach, now residing in the city of Boise, State of Idaho, proposing a change in name for their son, NATHAN ALEXANDER TUBACH, to OLIVER MCLOVIN TUBACH, has been filed in the above entitled court on June 25, 2014. The Petition alleges substantially the following: Petitioners are adult residents and domiciliaries of the state of Idaho, presently residing at 13226 N. Lookout Circle, Boise, Idaho 83714. Petitioners and the minor child subject to this action have continuously resided together in the state of Idaho since 2000.

Petitioners were married on the 10th day of August in 1991 and are currently husband and wife.

Petitioners are the legal and biological parents of NATHAN ALEXANDER TUBACH born December 8, 1998. Four (4) children were born as a result of the marriage of the parties to wit: Preston, age 18, Aubrie, age 17, Nathan, age 15, and Kyra, age 12.

The minor child subject to this petition, NATHAN ALEXANDER TUBACH, was born on December 8, 1998 in Cheyenne, Laramie County, Wyoming. Throughout most of the minor child’s life, he has been by the first name “Oliver”, even though his true legal name is “ Nathan”. The minor child’s school records reflect the name “Oliver”. The minor child is to commence high school at Boise High effective August, 2014, and Petitioners are informed that the official school records must show the name “NATHAN” unless a name change occurs correctly identifying Petitioners’ minor child’s name as “Oliver”. It is in the minor child’s best interest that his legal name be changed as set forth herein. When the issue of name change occurred within the Petitioners’ family, “Oliver” indicated that he likewise wishes to change his middle name to “McLovin”. Thus, the proposed name change of the minor child is from “NATHAN ALEXANDER TUBACH” to “OLIVER MCLOVIN TUBACH”. Petitioners seek a name change for their son for the purposes set forth herein. Petitioners do not seek a name change to avoid creditors. Neither Petitioners nor the minor child subject to this action request a change of name with the intent or purpose of avoiding registration as a convicted sexual offender pursuant to chapter 83, title 18, Idaho Code. Neither Petitioners nor the minor child subject to this action are required to register as a convicted sexual offender(s) pursuant to the law of Idaho or any other jurisdiction.

Such Petition will be heard on the 26th day of Aug, 2014 at 1:30 pm or at such other time as the court may appoint: any objections may be filed by any person who can, in such objections, show to the court a good reason against such a change of name.

WITNESS my hand and seal of said District Court this 18 day of July, 2014.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY CAREERS

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Researchers in Peru have recently tracked down many previously unknown varieties of wild cacao plants. What that means is that there are exotic kinds of chocolate that you and I have never dreamed of, and they will be commercially available within a few years. As delicious as your Chocolove XOXOX Extra Strong Dark candy bar may taste to you now, you will eventually journey further into a new frontier of ecstatic delectability. I propose that we use this theme as a metaphor for the work you have ahead of you right now. It is time for you to make good things even better—to take fun diversions and transform them into experiences that engender transcendent bliss. Turn “yes” into “YESSSS!!!!”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): At your next meal, imagine that the food you are eating is filled with special nutrients that enhance your courage. During the meal after that, fantasize that you are ingesting ingredients that will boost your perceptiveness. The next time you snack, visualize your food as being infused with elements that will augment the amount of trust you have in yourself. Then you will be ready to carry out your assignment for the coming weeks: Use your imagination to pump up your courage and perceptiveness as you carry out smart adventures that you haven’t trusted yourself enough to try before now.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The leaves and berries of the deadly nightshade plant are highly poisonous. If ingested, they cause delirium and death. On the other hand, a drug obtained from the same plant is on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines. It’s helpful in treating many illnesses, from gastrointestinal and heart problems to Parkinson’s. Is there a metaphorical equivalent in your life, Gemini? An influence that can either be sickening or healing, depending on various factors? I suspect that now is one of those times when you should be very focused on ensuring that the healing effect predominates.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): A New York doctor offers a service he calls Pokertox. Jack Berdy injects Botox into poker players’ faces so as to make their expressions hard to read. With their facial muscles paralyzed, they are in no danger of betraying subtle emotional signals that might help their opponents guess their strategy. I understand there might sometimes be value in adopting a poker face when you are in the midst of trying to win at poker or other games. But for the foreseeable future, Cancerian, I recommend the opposite approach. You’re most likely to be successful if you reveal everything you’re feeling. Let your face and eyes be

as eloquent as they can be.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): When we are launching any big project, our minds hide from us the full truth about how difficult it will be. If we knew beforehand all of the tests we would eventually face, we might never attempt it.

Economist Albert O. Hirschman called this the principle of the “hiding hand.” It frees us to dive innocently into challenging work that will probably take longer than we thought and compel us to access new resources and creativity. To be clear: What’s hidden from us are not only the obstacles but also the unexpected assistance we will get along the way.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The literal meaning of the Swedish word smultronställe is “wild strawberry patch.”

Metaphorically, it refers to a special place that feels like your private sanctuary. It may be hard-to-find or unappreciated by others, but for you it’s a spot that inspires you to relax deeply.

You might have had a life-changing epiphany there. When you’re in this refuge, you have a taste of what it’s like to feel at home in the world. Do you have a smultronställe, Virgo? If not, it’s time to find one. If you already do, spend extra time there in the coming week.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): If I’m reading the astrological omens correctly, the bells are about to ring for you. The festive lights will flash. The celebratory anthems will throb. It’s like you’re going to win a fortune on a TV quiz show; like you will get an A-plus on your final exam; like you’ll be picked as homecoming king or queen. But it’s possible I’m a bit off in my projections, and your success will be subtler than I anticipate. Maybe, in fact, you are about to accomplish the Healing of the Year, or discover the Secret of the Decade, or enjoy the Most Meaningful Orgasm of the Century.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A teenage Pakistani boy decided he wanted to help his country’s government clean up the local Internet. Ghazi Muhammad Abdullah gathered a list of more than 780,000 porn sites and sent it to the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority. Big job! Hard work! I would love to see you summon similar levels of passion and diligence as you work in behalf of your favorite cause, Scorpio. The coming weeks will be prime time for you to get very excited about the changes you would like to help create in the world.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Working as a journalist for the Papua New Guinea PostCourier, Simon Eroro wanted to interview a group of indigenous rebels in a remote jungle. He decided he was willing to do whatever was necessary to get

the big scoop. After making a difficult journey through rough terrain to reach them, he was told he would be given the information that he sought on one condition: that he be circumcised with bamboo sticks as part of a cleansing ritual. Eroro agreed to the procedure, got the story and ultimately won a prize for his report. I don’t recommend that you go quite that far in pursuit of your current goal, Sagittarius. On the other hand, it might be wise for you to consider making a sacrifice.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Kintsukuroi is a Japanese word that literally means “golden repair.” It refers to the practice of fixing cracked pottery with lacquer that’s blended with actual gold or silver. Metaphorically, it suggests that something may become more beautiful and valuable after being broken. The wounds and the healing of the wounds are integral parts of the story, not shameful distortions to be disguised or hidden. Does any of that resonate with you about your current experience, Capricorn? I’m guessing it does.

Let’s call this the kintsukuroi phase of your cycle.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Near the end of his career, the painter Henri Matisse created a paper-cut composition he called “Le Bateau,” or “The Boat.” It is an abstract piece that does not depict a literal boat. That’s why the Museum of Modern Art in New York should perhaps be forgiven for mistakenly hanging it upside-down upon first acquiring the piece back in 1961.

Fortunately, after a month and a half, a knowledgeable person noticed, and the position of “Le Bateau” was corrected. I’m wondering if there’s a comparable phenomenon going on with you right now, Aquarius? Is it possible that a part of your life got inverted or transposed? If so, will you be sharp enough to see the goof and brave enough to fix it? I hope you won’t allow this error to persist.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “I owe my success to having listened respectfully to the very best advice,” said British author G.K. Chesterton, “and then going away and doing the exact opposite.” I’m going to endorse that approach for you, Pisces. In my astrological opinion, I don’t think anyone can possibly give you accurate counsel in the coming weeks. Your circumstances are too unique and your dilemmas are too idiosyncratic for even the experts to understand, let alone the people who care for you and think they own a piece of you. I do suspect it might be useful for you to hear what everyone has to say about your situation, though. Seeing their mistaken or uninformed perspectives should help you get clarity about what’s right.
