EDITOR’S NOTE FLAGS, FIREWORKS AND LOCAL FOOD Odds are, at some point this week, everybody in the Treasure Valley will have experience with flags, fireworks and food. This week’s edition of Boise Weekly features all three as well, but not necessarily in the context of Independence Day revelry.

On Page 7, BW News Editor George Prentice delves into the controversy surrounding the Confederate battle flag, which is being run down flagpoles around the country in the wake of last month’s racially motivated mass killing at a historic black church in South Carolina.

The so-called “Stars and Bars” has come under criticism in Idaho, too, where Boise Mayor Dave Bieter took the step of lowering the Mississippi state flag from the City Hall plaza. Mississippi is the last state in the union to include the Confederate battle flag on its state flag, but it’s not the last state with sympathetic ties to the failed Confederate States of America. Though it was far from the battles of the Civil War, Idaho also has a long history with the Southern cause—beginning with a wave of migrants who came to the Gem State from the South after the war.

In his piece, Prentice gets the historical details from Boise State University professor Todd Shallat, and gets the perspective of a member of the Nampa Sons of Confederate Veterans.

On Page 9, one of our current interns, Micah Drew, takes a look at the rules governing fireworks in the Boise area—including how customers are allowed to purchase illegal fireworks by signing a waiver—and checks in with the organizers of the notorious Fourth of July celebration in Crouch.

Finally, on Page 24 BW roving food writer Tara Morgan profiles a new effort to build a food hub in Gem County that could give locavores the infrastructure they need to make local food a long-term, sustainable and widespread industry. The facility, which will most likely be located in Emmett, would include kitchen space and a processing component to serve local food producers within a 400-mile radius.

Don’t forget to check the First Thursday listings on Page 12 and find some Fourth of July picks on Page 18.

OPINION RED OUT

Yet another reason for morons to move to Idaho BILL COPE “So, Cope, tells me about this ‘Merican Redapt.”

“Red! Where you been?”

“The GOPPA Tour. Where ya’ think?”

“The GOPPA Tour?”

Yup. The Grand Ol’ Party Pres’dential ‘Nnouncement Tour. It’s where every few days, ya get to go watch another feller announce how he’s runnin’ f’r pres’dent. It’s like that Threeforks music hootin’Annie what they put on over in Boise, ‘ceptin’ it’s all speeches instead o’ music, and it’s spread out on totally diff’ernt days to totally diff’ernt cities all o’er the country.”

“Uh-huh, sounds just like Treefort.”

“First one up was Ted Cruz. Ain’t that ol’ boy a crackerjack, huh? Then I saw Doc Carson and Randy Paul and Mark O’Rubio. I saw that Carl Fiorina feller, and Mike Huckable. I skipped going to see some feller name o’ Jerry Pataski ‘cause I ain’t never heard of him, but I was there sweatin’ like a pig along wit’ ol’ Rick Perry. Then I went o’er t Looseranna to see Bobby Jindal but it turned out he hadn’t made up his mind yet.

And then I saw Ricky Santitarium... “ “Did you see Trump?”

“Hold y’r horses, Cope! I’m savin’ the best f ’r last. And I saw Jeb Bush, only I dozed off an’ missed most o’ his speech, and I didn’t see Lindy Graham acause I ended up goin’ t’ the wrong Carolina, then on my way to News York City, I stopped by New Jersey to see Chris Crisco, but it turned out he ain’t made up his mind yet neither... and then I went an’ saw ol’ Donal’ Trump.”

“And that was the best?”

“I made fi’ty bucks off’n it, Cope. No kiddin’!

On the way out, some feller hands me a fi’tydollar bill!”

“I heard about that. How Trump brought in paid actors to inflate his crowd.”

“Naaaaa! He wouldn’t o’ done that. He’s ‘bout the most pop’lar feller in News York City. I heard ‘im say so. So why’d he have t’ hire people to come see ‘im?”

“Maybe, because everyone but Trump understands what a repulsive asshole he is.”

“Watch y’r mout’, Cope. Y’r talkin’ ‘bout the next Pres’dent of the U. S. and A. Besides, that ain’t whys I come over. I wants t’ hear more about this ‘Merican Redapt what you were talkin’ ‘bout a couple weeks back.”

“Ah, Jeez, Red. I don’t want to get into that with you. You know how you get every time you hear about some bunch of rat-shit crazy right wingers who’ve decided North Idaho is a good place to sit out the Apocalypse.”

“What you talkin’ ‘bout, Cope? Hows I get, ‘ccordin’ t’ you?”

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

“Like when some warlord wannabes announced they were going to build that citadel place close to St. Maries? You were all ready to pick up and go, just because you heard they would keep out liberals. And then what about the time that beefy blowhard Bo Gritz was starting Almost Heaven outside of Kamiah? You even put some money on a lot.” “’Tweren’t much. I only signed up f ’r four hun’ert square feet. Jus’ enough land t’ park m’ camper on.”

“But you didn’t have a camper. You spent the money on your lot that you were going to buy an RV with.”

“Yeah, but I still own four-hun’ert square feet ouside o’ Kamiah don’ I? Now where ‘zac’ly is this ‘Merican Redapt place? I’m betting it’s up there around Curd Allen Lake somewheres.

That way, they could barr’cade the freeway when it comes time t’ hunker down an’ keep the rape gangs out.”

“Rape gangs? That’s what you’re worried about?”

“Shoot, Cope! Y’ ever see a movie ‘bout the collapsizing o’ civ’lization what didn’t have rape gangs?”

“Red, first of all, it’s not the American Redapt. It’s the American Redoubt. Like a fallback position when all else fails. And of course, these are the kind of people who are convinced everything else already has failed. Or, at the least, they’re convinced they can make money convincing stupid people it all will fail. So they’re encouraging the most feeble-minded, frightened, paranoid misfits in America to flock to the Intermountain Northwest and take over the entire area. Politically, culturally... you name it.”

“Sounds like a gull-durn good plan. Hows come I ain’t heard ‘bout it b’fore?”

“Don’t know, Red. I hadn’t heard about it myself until a few weeks ago. But then, I’m not a fundamentalist gun-nut xenophobic idiot who spends his time searching through the Internet for places where he might be able to live off the land like a parasite, keep his kids as ignorant as he is with homeschooling, and where there aren’t hardly any minorities.”

“There ya’ go again, Cope. Why’s it always have t’ be about them dang minorities? Why cain’t it jus’ be about folks who want t’ be wit’ their own kind?”

Unfortunately, we must leave this discussion for the time being. Since Red rattled on so incessantly about the GOPPA Tour, I have run out of room. But I assure you, there is more to be said about the American Redoubt.

OPINION PRICKING OF MY THUMBS A clownish carnival this way comes JOHN REMBER How did they get all those Republican presidential candidates in that little car? As I write this, Jeb! Bush is trying to generate enthusiasm for his campaign with an exclamation mark behind his name. It makes me think he’s in trouble with his mom: “Jeb? Jebby! Jeb! Get over here!”

Then I think, “Oh wow, there’s another one.

Where are they all coming from? Is there a trapdoor under the back seat or what?”

And then I think that there must be clowns still in the car, trampled in the rush, the hobnailmarks of big clown shoes on their foreheads, the paunches of their big ol’ overalls vomiting rags, the big ol’ glistening tears on their cheeks real. It’s time to call for the Jaws of Life before the whole thing catches fire, right there in center ring.

I’m not the first to use a clown car metaphor for this year’s crop of Republican candidates. I’ve seen it a couple of times in national publications, but it seems to have died down for the moment.

Perhaps editors had concerns about the questionable taste of comparing a series of primary elections to a traveling circus. It’s more likely that at some level, people know that clowns aren’t far from the demonic. We pretend they represent a disempowered kind of evil, like the gods of exterminated enemies, able to bring children to laughter and adults to scorn.

Except they’re not always disempowered. That idea that something remains alive and empty behind the greasepaint scares the bejeezus out of us. A quick look at Wikipedia reveals the titles of 35 evil-clown films. Ray Bradbury’s fine novel, Something Wicked This Way Comes, is an all-too-real fantasy about Satan arriving in a small Midwestern town with his carnival, the faces of his victims already tattooed on his back. From nonfiction comes the chilling example of John Wayne Gacy, the Illinois keeper of 30 strangled bodies in his crawl space, who appeared as Pogo the Clown at political fundraisers, parades and children’s birthday parties.

Right now Republican presidential aspirants are trying on traditional clown identities for the primaries. Without too much trouble we can squint and see the Sad Clown, the Clumsy Clown, the Rodeo Clown, the Fool, the Harlequin and Poor Yorick the Skull, whom I think is Richard Nixon trying for one last comeback.

In their unscripted moments, all of them look a bit like Pogo, and while that may seem unduly harsh for a nice lady like Carly Fiorina, a lot of laid-off Hewlett-Packard employees would agree that sure enough, that’s Pogo the Clown under all that makeup. Jeb! (¡Jeb! if you’re a Hispanic voter) looks like the Sad Clown, weighed down by the burden of maternal expectation and some resent6 | JULY 1–7, 2015 | BOISEweekly

ful things he’s said about single mothers. But many of those same single mothers would look at Jeb! and say, “¡Ay! ¡Pogo!”

I wish I were exaggerating. But these are people busily transforming themselves into grotesques. Imagine Donald Trump saying, “You’re fired,” to all the Americans who won’t salute his hairpiece: Pogo. Lindsay Graham? Some genuine Pogo anger behind that grin. Ben Carson? Now there’s some serious Pogo whiteface.

We’ve been through this before.

John McCain comes off as a harmless guy, but imagine him as a president ordering nuclear weapons into Ukraine: Super-Pogo, with the serial deaths of billions on his patriotic hands. Mitt Romney seems like your normal unselfconscious and overconfident small-town Mormon bishop until you imagine his hands around the economic fate of 47 percent of American men, women and children: Pogo. Sarah Palin, crashing neighbors’ yard parties with Dick Cheney’s security goons as an entourage: Pogo with a vengeance.

George Bush, clowning around on the plane with reporters, joking with his national security adviser about torture: Pogo. Ronald Reagan’s idiot grin that disguised the throes of Alzheimer’s: Pogo. Nixon, telling the South Vietnamese to hold off on a peace plan until he was elected and could get them a better deal: Pogo in spades, and 25,000 extra American deaths in the bargain.

A Pogo will be on the ballot in 2016. Millions of people will vote for something that smiles and looks human.

Traces of human DNA may lie under the greasepaint somewhere, but what was once a private self has been eaten away by a public identity.

The shell that’s left becomes a good place for a demon to hang out.

Do the Democrats have their own clown car?

Not exactly. They certainly have their candidate who is all surface, whose public persona has devoured the private person, whose every move, every gesture, stems from a calculation of how it will play to voters. I’m pretty sure there’s nobody human inside Hillary Clinton, but she’s not a clown. Instead, in her ability to convert herself to pure purpose, in her earthly ambition, in her willingness to say and do whatever it takes to win, she seems to be possessed by the same entity that possessed Lady Macbeth.

The Republicans have already noticed this about her. As usual they prefer to examine the inhumanity of opponents rather than peering at the darkness within. The result will be an election with a surfeit of exclamation marks: “Jeb!” and “¡Jeb!” and “She’s a witch!” and “¡Ella es una bruja!”

How the Gem State whistles Dixie in the shadow of flag flap

The controversial mural is part of the largest remaining collection of WPA art in Idaho.

HISTORIAN ON U OF I COVER-UP: ‘MISPLACED INSTINCT’

GEORGE PRENTICE This week, the South Carolina Legislature takes up the debate on whether to remove the Confederate battle flag from its statehouse as the Civil War-era symbol remains at the center of a renewed debate over whether it is an emblem of hatred and ignorance, or evokes a legacy of rebellion. The flag still flies and certainly insults its foes, atop countless homes, businesses and vehicles across the nation—including in Idaho, where a few critics say the Stars and Bars is a mainstay in the most “Southern” of the northern states.

“I see them all over,” said Dr. Todd Shallat, Boise State professor and director of the university’s Center for Idaho History and Politics. “You want to see the confederate flag? Go to a truck stop. Gun racks. Coffee mugs. Belt buckles...

Man and his symbols.”

The symbol isn’t new, but it’s a tangible centerpiece in a national conversation happening in the shadow of the fatal shooting of nine AfricanAmericans in a South Carolina church. Within hours of the mass murder, photographs of the gunman—now charged with a hate crime—were all over the Internet, showing him posing with the Confederate battle flag.

“This is a wakeup call to the nation,” Cornell Brooks, NAACP president and CEO, told NBC News. “Would you feel safe walking into a room of swastikas and Nazi paraphernalia? In the same way, Americans do not feel safe, do not feel comforted by this emblem of hatred, bigotry, bias and slavery.”

Nate Pyles does not see any of that when he looks at the 13 stars and the two blue bars crisscrossed over a field of red.

“When I see the Confederate flag, I see the fight for limited government,” Pyles told Boise Weekly.

Pyles, a real estate investor and former minister, serves as chaplain for the Nampa chapter of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, a national preservation society limited to male descendants of those who served in the Confederate armed forces. Pyles said he had two great, great uncles who fought for the South.

“I think of the blood sacrifice,” he said.

“Obviously, slavery is a horrible thing. None of BOISE WEEKLY.COM

us are racists. Slavery and racism are an anathema to our organization, both locally and nationally. But the southern states felt trampled by a big federal government.”

Therein lies the heart of Idaho’s post-Civil War history, which still has some Idahoans whistling Dixie.

“The most Southern place in America, the heart of deep Dixie— that was home to many people who ended up coming to Idaho,” said Shallat, author of more than 20 books on history and culture. “The story of Idaho starts during the Civil War, the Oregon Trail and General [Ulysses] Grant’s drive through the South.”

Grant’s 1862 victories at the battles of Shiloh, Tenn., and Vicksburg, Miss., pushed some Confederate deserters, draft dodgers and many who simply wanted to escape the war to the Oregon Trail and points west.

“In the beginning, southern Idaho and the Boise Basin absolutely were controlled by confederates,” said Shallat. “Then Lincoln organized the territory. Lincoln Republicans controlled Idaho’s first hierarchy of state government, but the Legislature was controlled by the Democrats.”

It doesn’t take too much effort to trace those Southern roots, beginning with the Elmore County town of Dixie (founded in 1864), the Boise County community of Confederate Gulch, the Canyon County town of Dixie and the Boise County area known as Grayback Gulch, named for the large number of Confederates, aka “graybacks,” in the region.

U. S. Senator William Borah, dubbed the “Lion of Idaho,” was posthumously honored by having high schools, streets, a park, and a University of Idaho foundation and theater named in his honor. Borah was noted for his isolationist views during his unsuccessful run for the U.S. presidency in 1936, but less is said about Borah’s affinity for the South.

“One of Idaho’s most famous Southern sympathizers was Borah. His story is very complicated and tangled up with the South,” said Shallat.

“When he ran for president, he had a constituency that looks exactly like the presidential electoral

map that Mitt Romney had in 2012. There was Idaho, Wyoming and Utah and then the Deep South. The Republican map of 2012 was the same map as the early part of the 20th century.”

The ranks of Southern sympathizers were shored up, according to Shallat, by two significant waves of so-called “white flight,” in search of less diversity: in the post-Civil War years and again in the 1970s. But the ’70s brought waves of white people from southern California, and with them, some strong prejudices.

“The newer arrivals were more militant. Idaho conservatives, before then, had been more libertarian, but those southern California conservatives brought in a lot of white people who thought that their place in society was being eroded,” said Shallat. “And they like Idaho. And they sure liked our attitude toward guns. They were really interested in arming themselves.”

Shallat added it didn’t take much to connect the dots of that conservatism to a culture of guns.

“You see those gun racks on the trucks and the Confederate flag, too. There are plenty of Southern alliances,” he said. “I don’t know if most of them see it as a symbol of white supremacy.

But, you know what? It’s still about man and his symbols.”

Meanwhile, at the Nampa chapter of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, Pyles said while he sympathizes with African-Americans’ view of the Confederate battle flag, he aligned the same feelings to Native Americans.

“Do you know what? It’s a bit like Native Americans when they look at the U.S. flag,” said Pyles. “That’s a lot of hurt and insult, too. There’s a lot of horror in our history.”

The headlines about racial insensitivity spread across the globe June 25, but this time the center of the debate wasn’t the Confederate flag or South Carolina. Instead, the world’s media turned its lens toward Idaho and a mural inside the under-renovation Old Ada County Courthouse and soon-to-be Boise law center for the University of Idaho College of Law-Boise.

When the U of I swings open the doors of new center in August , university officials say they don’t want the public to see two permanent murals depicting white settlers about to hang a Native American.

Lee Dillion, an associate dean at the law school, told Channel 6 KIVI-TV the paintings had “no connection to the history of Idaho.” He couldn’t have been more wrong. The controversial paintings, dating back to a commission from the Works Progress Administration in the 1930s, are part of the largest remaining collection of WPA art in all of Idaho.

“Covering it, no matter how well intentioned, is a mistake,” said Dan Everhart, architectural historian and board member of Preservation Idaho. “Is it offensive? Yes. That said, because it tells a story, it’s important.”

The mural in question is part of a progression of images for the old courthouse. Unfortunately, it wasn’t put in the right position.

“That mural was intended to be on the lowest level, because it’s the lowest level of justice: mob justice. As you go up the walls, it was supposed to take you through the evolution of how law is to be administered, until you come to being judged in courts by a jury of your peers,” Everhart told Boise Weekly. “But they put it in the wrong order.”

Meanwhile, it can’t be moved without being seriously damaged.

“The canvas is directly affixed to the wall,” said Everhart. “It would be significant expense to take it away; odds are you would damage it.”

That said, U of I doesn’t want it be on public display, despite the fact that Native American tribes worked with state officials in 2008 to place interpretative plaques that read, in part, “Their story is an important part of the mosaic of Idaho’s past, present and future.”

“This instinct from the U of I of trying to protect us from ourselves is a misplaced instinct,” said Everhart. “We will suffer from that.”

NEWS DIALING DOWN THE THERMOSTAT, DIALING UP THE DEBATE ON SOLAR POWER ‘Everybody has a plan until you get punched in the mouth’ GEORGE PRENTICE

Between 50 and 70 freight trains pass through Sandpoint every day.

NORTH IDAHO BRACES FOR OIL TRAIN IMPACTS The national economy might run on oil but for Sandpoint, the energy source could also be its undoing.

About 75 north Idaho residents turned out June 24 to hear the latest on oil train threats from a panel of conservation and public safety groups, who said vigilance is important to maintain safety.

“It’s going to happen eventually in Bonner County where we’ll have to deal with some kind of incident,” said Ron Stocking, fire chief both Sandpoint and the nearby community of Sagle.

“Hopefully it will be a minor one.”

Sandpoint is located at a critical rail juncture for freight trains carrying coal from Wyoming and Montana, and crude oil from the Bakken oil fields in North Dakota. Between 50 and 70 trains pass through the north Idaho resort town every day, and if planned export terminals on the Washington and Oregon coasts are built, that number is projected to increase dramatically.

That’s worrisome to many, considering a number of derailments and explosions in recent years, including a 2013 explosion in Quebec that killed 47 people.

“The reason we are seeing so many derailments is because we are running so many crude oil trains,” said Eric de Place, policy director at sustainability nonprofit Sightline Institute.

Stocking said the city is preparing emergency plans in the event a derailment occurs, with human life, property and environmental protection topping the list of priorities.

Meanwhile, Sandpoint City Councilwoman and Lake Pend Oreille Waterkeeper Director Shannon Williamson said the city is eyeing the possibility of a second rail bridge to accommodate more traffic. Projected for construction as early as 2018, the bridge would require a public comment period before authorization if the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requires a special permit. Council members have formally requested this special permit, Williamson said.

“Since this project is so far afield, we don’t know what the Army Corps will do, but the request has been made,” Williamson said.

Not one. Not a single person stood before the Idaho Public Utilities Commission June 24 to say Idaho Power should be allowed to dramatically limit its contracts with solar energy providers.

One-by-one, members of the public—students, retirees, officials from the public and private sectors, conservation advocates, engineers and selfproclaimed energy experts—told the commission, which regulates all of the Gem State’s utilities, in no uncertain terms that the PUC should quash Idaho Power’s proposal to reduce the duration of future renewable energy sales agreements from 20 years to 24 months.

Decades from now, Gem State historians may look back on that unseasonably hot June evening, when a mix of Idahoans expressed solidarity in favor of solar power and opposition to the effort to dial down renewable energy contracts.

“I should caution you that commissioners are not here to offer comments,” said PUC Commissioner Paul Kjellander, setting the ground rules for what would be a two hour-plus hearing. “The commissioners serve as judge in this matter.”

The proceedings did indeed run similar to a courtroom, with citizen “witnesses” being sworn in by a deputy attorney general and sitting in a witness box before the PUC “judges.” The commission kept its Boise hearing room at a comfortable 75 degrees as triple-digit heat baked the city outside the PUC’s Washington Street office.

Though the meeting remained civil throughout, there was no doubt it is a heated issue.

“Before a championship boxing match, someone asked Mike Tyson if he had a plan. Tyson said, ‘Everybody has a plan until you get punched in the mouth,’” said the evening’s first witness, retired energy developer Michael Heckler. “This two-year limitation of contracts is a punch in the mouth. I urge the PUC to shake this off. It limits competition and free-market regulation of prices.”

Public testimony continued into the evening: some of it articulate, some of it rambling, some of it featuring homemade charts and graphs. Nearly all of the speakers identified themselves as Idaho Power customers: “[Idaho Power] chooses to be on the wrong side of environmental health and the wrong side of history,” said self-described alternative energy promoter Reed Burkholder.

“Our state is blessed with clean, renewable resources and we should embrace them,” said Rebecca Bundy, Senior Planner at the City of Ketchum’s Department of Planning and Building.

“The Public Utilities Commission and Idaho Power have an ethical responsibility to open all pathways to environmental renewables,” said Ketchum artist Karen McCall, who handed commissioners a petition with 1,000 signatures opposing Idaho Power’s proposal to restrict new renewable energy contracts.

“Idaho Power simply need to work a little harder on this,” said Pocatello-based engineer Brian Formusa. “They don’t need any extra PUC protections from renewable energy projects.”

Representatives of Idaho Power sat mum throughout the night as every speaker voiced opposition to the plan, which we reported on in the spring (BW, News, “Here Comes the Sun, “ March 18, 2015). It was then that Idaho Power attorney Donovan Walker pointed to what he called his “hockey stick chart,” featuring a long, steady line stretching for decades before rising rapidly as it reaches 2014 and 2015.

The chart demonstrates the amount of renewable energy coming through Idaho Power’s grid and the sharply rising line indicates when Idaho Power began signing contracts through the Public Utility Regulatory Policy Act, or PURPA, requiring utilities to purchase solar, wind and/or hydroelectric power from developers.

“We already have, under contract, 400 MWs that will be coming in from new solar projects next year,” Donovan told Boise Weekly. “Then on top of that, there’s another 900 MWS from proposed contracts. To put that in perspective, that’s larger than our entire Hells Canyon three-dam complex. It exceeds the total load on our system.”

Based on those numbers, Idaho Power balked at the mandated 20-year length of the contracts with renewable energy providers and asked the PUC to lower the contract length to two years.

“It’s asking someone to buy a house but with

only a twoyear mortgage,” said Ben Otto, energy associate with the Idaho Conservation League. “This would squash future renewable energy development.”

Otto sat quietly during the June 24 public testimony. Otto, Donovan and many other parties—both pro and con—knew they would have their own day in PUC “court,” and on the morning of June 29 Donovan walked back into the same PUC hearing room carrying a box full of binders. He slapped each one down on his desk in front of PUC commissioners as he prepared for what would be multiple days of so-called “technical hearings,” in which intervenors would include other utility companies, the Idaho Conservation League, the Sierra Club, Snake River Alliance, Intermountain Energy Partners, Micron, JR Simplot Co. and about a dozen other companies or nonprofits.

“Have you come to watch the fireworks?” asked Clint Kalich, manager of resource planning for Avista Power, a party to the hearing.

A layperson could have been easily lost in the lengthy technical hearing as the room full of attorneys and spokespeople parsed through the Idaho Power application, but the real fireworks may come later in the month, when the PUC is expected to issue a significant ruling in the matter.

“You should know that the PUC could rule on this issue as early as the end of July,” Kjellander cautioned the June 24 hearing. “So the affected parties should be on notice.”

IDAHO’S BIG BANG THEORY

NEWS

Safe and sane doesn’t mean legal everywhere MICAH DREW Children thrill to the sights. Pets cower at the sounds. Law enforcement agencies hope something doesn’t go terribly wrong. The surest sign Fourth of July is looming is the appearance of stands popping up in parking lots across the Treasure Valley, each offering a profusion of pyrotechnics, ranging from small firecrackers to large fountains, and all wrapped in inviting, multi-colored packaging.

“I love doing this,” said Crissy Boice, the third-generation operator of Outlet Fireworks, pointing to dangerous delights such as the “Psychedelic,” “Pyro Surprise” and “Fish out of Water. You don’t sell fireworks for the money; you do it because it’s so fun.”

Boice said she has been in the fireworks trade since she was 7 years old and currently shuttles between two Boise stands this summer, both of which opened since June 25 and will shut down Sunday, July 5.

Boice said her customers typically shell out $50 for fireworks, but it’s not unusual for someone to drop $200-$300 in a single visit, which would be easy to do: individual “fountains” were selling for up to $42 at Boice’s stand on the corner of State and 16th streets; variety packs of fireworks were going for as much as $150.

“People just love seeing pretty colors and celebrating the Fourth of July,” said Boice, whose stand even has a kids’ section featuring sparklers and smoke balls.

No one keeps a closer eye on sparks than Boise Fire Chief Dennis Doan who calls the Fourth of July “a double-edge sword.”

“I really love fireworks,” Doan told Boise Weekly. “But we’ve got to be safe. The stands selling fireworks all around Boise have been inspected, and we count on them to sell the safe and sane items.”

“Safe and sane” is the informal definition used throughout Idaho for legal fireworks, which includes most sparklers and some fountains, as long as they do not rocket or emit sparks more than 20 vertical feet.

Even though larger fireworks are illegal in the state, the paradox is that many of them are sold right outside Boise city limits: In 2014, BOISE WEEKLY.COM

One local retailer at a Boise fireworks stand told Boise Weekly that her customers typically shell out about $50, but it’s not unusual for someone to drop $200-$300 in a single visit.

Ada County emergency responders logged 138 reports of illegal fireworks. Boice said her brother’s stand outside of Nampa makes a lot more money than the stands in Boise.

He sells illegal fireworks, but in order to purchase them, customers must sign a document saying they will not be used, handled, stored or lit within Idaho’s borders. But even the smallest, seemingly safest, fireworks aren’t legal everywhere.

According to Boise Deputy Chief Fire Marshal Romeo Gervais, fireworks are banned in all areas north of Hill Road, in and around Camel’s Back Park and north of Warm Springs Avenue.

“Even the safe and sane ones that are legal in other areas of the city are not allowed in those areas due to our wildfire risks,” said Gervais.

If there’s any place in Idaho that puts the term “safe and sane” to the test, it’s the Boise County community of Crouch, where locals and visitors are encouraged to set off fireworks in the middle of town on July 4.

YouTube videos chronicle how past holidays have been marked by sparks flying through crowds, past rooftops and over the local gas stations. Popular T-shirts read, “I Survived the 4th of July in Crouch,” and this year’s holiday motto is “Chaos in Crouch.”

Chamber of Commerce President C.J. Scharf said they pull off the extravaganza “by the skin of our teeth.”

“There’s really a fair amount of dissent [over the fireworks] here and there,” said Scharf. “The chamber shells out $5,000$6,000 to put on a drunken bash that mostly attracts 1A and 2C plates; so it’s not really for us.”

Ada and Canyon County residents who don’t head into the chaos are likely to leave the fireworks to the professionals and, as in years past, Ann Morrison Park will be packed with a daylong menu of activities (see Picks, Page 18) before the big showcase at sundown.

Up to 30,000 attendees are expected in the park throughout the day, with about 10,000 staying to watch the show, managed by Oregon-based Western Display Fireworks, who said this year’s show will feature the “Eight Pattern Butterfly” and “Strobe Waterfalls.”

“They’re absolutely beautiful,” Western Display co-owner Heather Gobet told BW. “They’re these really intense white strobes that are shot in a waterfall pattern… they just hang in the sky and twinkle.”

City of Boise Director of Community Partnerships Diana Lachiondo said the city will spend around $25,000 for the fireworks, partnering with several sponsors.

“Mainly we’re looking for a big, bold beautiful show,” said Lachiondo. “Fireworks isn’t our expertise so we leave it to the experts. It’s the epitome of the term ‘biggest bang for our buck.’”

CITIZEN JE

RE MY

LA

NN INGH

AM

Giovanna, the folks at the Idaho Shakespeare Festival provide us with a short biography of performers, and I must say that I’m a bit stunned to see how many shows you’ve been in.

Giovanna Layne: I think I’ve done 13 shows. I don’t really keep track. When they’re over, they’re over. Maybe it’s 14.

Do you want to keep performing in the coming years?

Giovanna Layne: Definitely. It has already taken me quite far. If that continues, I can see this as a career.

VICTORIA BUSSERT, GIOVANNA LAYNE AND GREGORY DANIELS

Mrs. Layne, I need to pause our conversation and turn to you again. What do you want for your daughter Giovanna and what don’t you want for her?

Victoria Layne: Giovanna remembers that it’s important to stay humble. She gives back to her community back home in Cleveland.

She would love to be performing on Broadway right now, but her dad and I are working parents and that’s not going to happen anytime soon.

GEORGE PRENTICE

Giovanna, if you could be an actress and still have another profession, what would that be?

Giovanna Layne: I have it all planned out.

I want to be an actress and a lawyer.

The trio from ISF’s The Secret Garden on the secret to their success Boise Weekly rarely conducts a pre-interview before sitting down for a Citizen Q&A, but it became clear that we would be remiss if you we didn’t have a few words with Victoria Layne, mother of 11-year-old Giovanna, who this summer is the leading lady of Idaho Shakespeare Festival’s musical production of The Secret Garden.

“I’ve never really been away from home before, except on a family trip,” said Giovanna, the seventh-grader who will portray Mary Lennox, the centerpiece of the musical. Victoria Layne was sitting quietly in the back of the room.

“Is this going to be difficult?” we asked.

“For me or for her?” Victoria asked, with a smile on her face but tears in her eyes. She was about to return to her husband and son, back home in Cleveland, “This was a very big decision for our family, but we’re all flying to Boise to see Giovanna on the Fourth of July.”

What a holiday celebration that will be: Not only will it be a family reunion for the Laynes, but that same evening is Giovanna’s opening night in The Secret Garden.

BW talked to the little lady with the big role, along with The Secret Garden director Victoria Bussert and choreographer Gregory Daniels.

10 | JULY 1–7, 2015 | BOISEweekly

OK then. Moving on. With that, Victoria Bussert, let me to turn to you and ask how you choose a musical each season.

This is your 10th year with ISF. Victoria Bussert: I’m actually on the outside of that process. This is a repertory company, and no single show has a cast only for that show. Nearly every single actor has to be able to do multiple shows. We’re always asking if we can cross-cast these shows. It’s quite an equation.

And you’re directing two musical productions this season Victoria Bussert: That’s right. The Secret Garden opens in early July and runs through late August. And then we have The Fantastics opening five nights later and running through late September.

When did you get word that you would be directing The Secret Garden?

Victoria Bussert: December. Actually, I did the national tour of The Secret Garden a long time ago. But with our production, we’re really trying to focus on telling the story with as much clarity as possible. It’s a bit different from the original Broadway show.

I’m presuming that casting any musical is a challenge, but where do you begin in finding someone to fill the role of Mary Lennox, who is in practically every scene of this show?

Victoria Bussert: We started with an open call last winter.

Giovanna Layne: I remember that very well.

Victoria Bussert: It was brutally cold in Cleveland. We probably saw 25 girls for the role.

But Giovanna was the clear favorite. It wasn’t terribly difficult because Giovanna has Mary’s spirit and intelligence.

Giovanna Layne: I remember that I was in a production of A Christmas Carol in Cleveland and [ISF regular] Laura Perrotta told me, “You should totally audition for The Secret Garden.” I thought it sounded like a lot of fun.

Victoria Bussert: And Laura is in our production as Mrs. Medlock [the head of servants at the English home where Mary is sent to live].

Gregory, where did your connection to this production begin?

Gregory Daniels: From the beginning. Victoria [Bussert] and I have worked together for five years now. It’s been 20 productions.

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

CITIZEN That’s practically a marriage. It’s certainly as much drama as any relationship.

Gregory Daniels: But The Secret Garden is brand new for me. I’ve never worked on this particular show before. So I begin with Vicki’s vision.

One of our biggest challenges was the presentation of the so-called “dreamers.”

And by dreamers you’re referring to the ghosts of The Secret Garden. They’re integral to the through-line of the story.

Victoria Bussert: In the opening scene, we meet Mary in India. But we soon learn that all of the adults have died of Cholera and Mary is alone. And those adults reappear as dreamers, or ghosts, through the story. They’re all invested in Mary and need to make sure she’s alright.

The whole conceit of the musical is that ghosts are with us until they’re sure that we don’t need them anymore.

I saw the original show on Broadway in the early 1990s and all of a sudden I remember being a blubbering mess at the end. It’s a pretty emotional experience for adults, yet kids see this as a story of empowerment.

Victoria Bussert: And it gets more emotional for us as we get older.

In many ways, The Secret Garden is a story about loss. How do you direct something that visceral with someone so young?

Victoria Bussert: Giovanna and I will just have to find that place. Giovanna will have a different understanding of that than you or I. She is as Mary was. Giovanna is 11 and Mary was 10. Her perception of Mary’s world is much more accurate than yours or mine. There’s a song in the show called “Wick” that reminds us that even if there’s a teeny bit of life in something, it can bloom again. That’s an important theme for all of us.

How challenging is your rehearsal process?

Victoria Bussert: They’re long days, but they’re fun. I’ve never looked at this as being difficult. And I’m really excited for Giovanna. We spend three weeks in our rehearsal hall. The week before we open, we’re out in the amphitheater for five days on the actual set which is beautifully imagined by Jeff Herman.

Talk to me about working with young performers.

Victoria Bussert: It’s the best. The thing that separated Giovanna from everyone else was clear in her audition. You can find a lot of young actors who can speak the lines. The challenge has always been to find a young actor who truly listens to fellow performers. Giovanna already has a natural instinct for listening. A lot of directors make the mistake of telling children, “This is how you should act.” But for me it’s, “Show me what you want to do and let me help you with that.”

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Gregory Daniels: I’ve worked a lot with young performers. It’s more about being a friend and having some fun and just letting them be them.

Gregory, I’m certain that you’ve worked with wonderful actors who are great from the waist up but have two left feet. How do you work through that challenge?

Gregory Daniels: Years ago, when I was a performer, I auditioned for Crazy for You on Broadway for the great choreographer/director Susan Stroman. She said, “I’ve got four weeks. I can teach anyone to dance.”

I find that difficult to believe.

Gregory Daniels: That show had every shapeand-size actor. So do a lot of modern musicals.

But Susan had a knack to work with that, and that stuck with me all these years later. Give me four weeks, and I’ll get you to do it.

Giovanna, do you like to move around on stage? I’m guessing you’ve danced a bit in previous shows.

Giovanna Layne: If the show doesn’t have any dancing, I’m prepared for the lines and music. If the show has dancing, I’m ready to move. I love to take my dance classes: ballet and tap.

Do you have a favorite song in the show?

Giovanna Layne: “I Heard Someone Crying.”

Wow, that’s a pretty emotional moment.

Victoria Bussert: If you think of it, Mary ends up saving everyone else in the show. When Frances Hodgson Burnett wrote the novel in 1910, her son had died and that really motivated her story of The Secret Garden. There are wonderful lessons for all age groups, depending on your own life experience.

My sense is that much of your audience will be familiar with the novel, but very few people have seen the Broadway show. Yet, it’s one of the best-written musicals of the past 20 years.

Victoria Bussert: And it’s a magnificent musical score. Giovanna’s co-stars are wonderful.

There’s Stephen Mitchell Brown, who had the lead in last summer’s production of Les Miserables, as Mary’s Uncle Archibald and Stephen’s wife, Leah Jennings who plays Mary’s mother. Plus there’s Tom Ford as Neville, Archibald’s brother, and Jillian Kates who joins us after being in the touring company of Wicked. She’s playing Lilly, Archibald’s late wife who beckons Mary to come to the garden.

Giovanna, I hope you can appreciate what a big deal this is. Are you up for all of this?

Giovanna Layne: Absolutely yes.

Victoria Bussert: Oh my gosh, what if she had said “no” right now?

See nuclear activity through an artist’s eyes.

MING STUDIOS In the fall of 2014, seven artists from Boise, McCall, Pocatello and Idaho Falls took a tour of the Idaho National Laboratory with the Snake River Alliance—a nonprofit that focuses on curbing nuclear activity in Idaho.

The artists spent time touring the places where INL stores and dumps spent nuclear fuel rods, then they came back and spent the past several months creating artwork based on their experiences.

One of the artists recently lost her mother to cancer and skin disease, after a long career at the Rocky Flats Plant in Colorado.

“Most of the waste from Rocky Flats has been brought to the Idaho National Laboratory,” SRA Executive Director Kelsey Nunez told Boise Weekly. “This artist was seeing the radioactive materials that killed her mother.”

The exhibit, Holding What Can’t Be Held, opens First Thursday at 6 p.m. at MING Studios (420 S. Sixth St.); Bijoux and the Experimental Breeders will play music throughout the evening. The exhibit also features an open discussion on the artwork on Friday, July 10, and a film screening on Friday, July 17 and Saturday, July 18.

Nunez said the goal of this project is to bring more attention to nuclear issues in the state.

“Not everyone wants to read a fact sheet,” she said.

An evening of beer and barbecue with a few hundred of your closest friends.

OLD BOISE BACKYARD BBQ The bars and restaurants along Sixth and Main streets usually aren’t the first thing people think of when they think of First Thursday activities.

“People go to art galleries and glass blowing demonstrations,” said Cassidy Kay of Tom Grainey’s Sporting Pub. “They don’t think of bars, though. So we thought, ‘Let’s pump it up again.’”

That’s why the owners of Old Boise, China Blue, Dirty Little Roddy’s, Amsterdam Lounge, Silly Birch, Tom Grainey’s, the Front Door, Reef and Whiskey Bar decided to do something a little different to attract attention.

This First Thursday, a block of Sixth Street will be closed to cars and open to an Old Boise Backyard Barbecue, complete with canned beer from Crooked Fence Brewing, a DJ, barbecue and burger food trucks, and games from 7-11 p.m.

“We wanted to do something more exciting than wine and cheese,” Kay said.

It’s more than just a walk in the park: It’s entertaining education.

JULIA DAVIS PARK Anyone who has lived in or visited Boise has no doubt spent time in Julia Davis Park, but many don’t know who Julia Davis was. Turns out, she was pretty cool.

“Julia was really a welcome wagon,” said Diane Davis Myklegard, Davis’ great-granddaughter. “She would go down as the pioneers came in their carriages and greet them—particularly the women. She had such empathy for the women and what they went through on their journeys. She came across on a wagon train, so she knew what it was like. She knew the hardship they felt.”

That is just one of the many facts that are part of the Julia Davis Park Docent Tours, led by volunteers. The hour-long tours are offered every First Thursday at 4 p.m. from May to October.

“Some of the volunteers [wear] in period dress, which gives you more of a feeling for that time,” Myklegard said. “I don’t think any of us stop to think about what it was like to walk around in that kind of garb in July.”

The tour starts at the Rose Garden Gazebo. It’s free, but participants must pre-register online at juliadavispark.org.

In early June, a fire in Idaho City destroyed several businesses including Calamity Jaynes, the Idaho City Trading Post, the Sarsaparilla Ice Cream Parlor, Old Time Photo, Main Street Floral and Candle Shop, and a vacant business.

Though no one was injured in the blaze, the entire town suffered both economically and emotionally, but the Old West pioneer spirit is alive and well in the small community of around 500 as Idaho City citizens (Idaho Cityzens?) are working to rebuild. They could use your support and the Idaho City Volunteer Fire Department promises to make it easy—and fun: There’s a parade, kids’ games, a triathlon, a wheelbarrow race, shootouts, a reading of the Declaration of Independence at John Brogan Park and fireworks at dusk in the football field.

JEFF CROSBY AND THE REFUGEES, JULY 1, AA5 Since moving to L.A. in 2010, Jeff Crosby and the Refugees have gained momentum—and fans—with high-energy live shows, and their ever-evolving sound, as evidenced by their 2014 selfreleased full-length All Nighter. Roots-rock website No Depression called the album “feel-good music,” adding that the “standout is Crosby’s voice ... just incredible, unique and such a pleasure to listen to.”

The Idaho native will bring his band of Refugees, which now include Jeff’s brother Andy on bass and Ben Brault on drums, home for a handful of performances: In addition to Alive After Five, they’ll head to the Wood River Valley to play Friday, July 3, in Stanley Park and Saturday, July 4, during the Fourth of July Celebration at McCall’s Salmon River Brewery. Hopefully, they’ll be able to chill out with a mug of SRB’s Jeff Crosby and The Refugees Refugee Sage Pale Ale. —Micah Drew With local openers Lee Penn Sky and The Oliphants. 5 p.m., FREE, Grove Plaza, 850 W.

BEERGUZZLER BREWS TO BEAT THE HEAT

24 | JULY 1–7, 2015 | BOISEweekly

If you need evidence the demand for local food is booming, try showing up at the Boise Farmers Market at 11 a.m. Not only are produce tables pretty much picked over, but chalkboard signs that once listed dozens of products are smudged with strike-throughs. Ask someone involved in the local food movement what’s lacking and they probably won’t say demand, they’ll say infrastructure.

“Anyone who’s spent five minutes in local food knows that local food needs a big kitchen,” said Chris Florence of Sweet Valley Family Farm, which sells foraged fare like wild mushrooms and huckleberries. “In order for local food to work, there has to be some value-adding, processing component. It’s not enough to just try to aggregate and distribute fresh market produce.”

Because the window for growing and selling fresh produce is relatively short in southern Idaho—around four months—and the margins are razor-thin, Florence and his peers are constantly searching for ways to add value to their products.

“The fresh market window is too tight; it’s too stressful. ... So in order to round out the business model you have to put up jars of stuff—pickled stuff, frozen stuff, dried stuff—so that you can keep selling throughout the year,” said Florence.

Unfortunately, the region lacks local food processing facilities. While some farmers pay to work out of the University of Idaho’s Food Technology Center in Caldwell or rent commercial kitchen space by the hour to make their jams and pickles, it’s not a particularly efficient endeavor.

“You need one big processing outfit that can contract with the producer pre-season and say, ‘Your entire crop of pumpkin is sold because I have a contract to sell it all. I’m going to cook it for you; I’m going to add all the value.’ That’s what the producer needs is a purchase order, they don’t need to be running around trying to do deliveries and trying to make jam,” said Florence.

He isn’t speaking hypothetically. For the last eight months, Florence has been working with Gem County to develop a business plan for a new regional food hub. Though a food hub can take many forms, like Idaho’s Bounty or Brown Box Organics, its essential function is to link

STELLA ARTOIS LAGER, $1.60-$2 There’s a lot of hype (and controversy) surrounding this Belgian entry: some love it, some hate it. It’s a bit skunky on the nose (the part people hate), but it blows off leaving notes of grain and soft hops. Clean and light on the palate, this beer has a bit of sweet biscuit and bitterness. On a really hot day, I like it in a near brain-freeze, slushy state, with ice crystals just starting to form.

Sweet Valley spearheads juicy new project

food producers and consumers.

“What we’ve found is people who are really good at farming don’t always have the know-how or resources to do their own distribution and do it reliably. …

A hub might just make three phone calls and have an entire crop secured for a producer,” said Florence.

Over the past four years, Gem County has been researching the feasibility of forming a food hub.

“We received a couple of grants: two from USDA and one from Idaho Department of Commerce,” explained Dian Streeby, president and CEO of the Gem County Chamber of Commerce. “Then we went forward doing the architectural study and the producer/buyer study.

Four years later, we’ve evolved and now we’ve identified [Sweet Valley] as the business.”

Sweet Valley has signed on to spearhead the food hub effort in Gem County, which will most likely take over an existing building in Emmett and work with producers in a 400-mile radius.

Eventually, the goal is for the venture to grow into a producer-owned cooperative.

There’s another, even more ambitious, component to the project. The Gem County food hub also plans to incorporate a processing arm, which could potentially include freezing, drying and juicing facilities.

“For a food hub to exist here, it needs to have some anchor tenants, or anchor revenue streams,” said Florence. “One of those that we identified as a potential was a juicing operation that services the new cideries in town.”

According to Florence, most of the apples grown in the Northwest are shipped to two or three giant facilities in Washington state to be processed and juiced.

“As it stands right now, that juice for local cideries is being trucked back to the Treasure Valley and the cost of the transportation is actually more than the cost of the product,” said Florence.

“So just by being located in close proximity to these cideries, we have a pretty big competitive advantage.”

PILSNER URQUELL, $1.70-$2 The original pilsner, this clear, golden Czech brew created quite a sensation when it debuted in 1842. Fresh-baked wheat bread aromas dominate with a bit of mown grass and citrusy hops. The palate opens with toasted, cracked wheat and bright lemon flavors, with a light earthiness and a dry, hoppy finish. This is a world class brew.

PERONI NASTRO AZZURRO, $1.60-$2 The No. 1 beer in Italy, this pours a light straw with a thin white head.

Subtle aromas of fresh cut hay, biscuit and a hint of spice come through.

There’s a nice balance between the just-sweet malt and the just-bitter hops. The finish is crisp and dry. While it won’t win over any diehard ale lovers, served well chilled, it hits the spot—and it works well with pizza.

FOOD AD

With a string of 100-plus degree days predicted, many of us are looking for simple, chilled refreshment. The best solution would be to pack up and escape the heat but if that’s not happening, take a world beer tour instead.

Here’s a trio of lagers from different European destinations, each with something to recommend as a summer quencher.

juice when it becomes available.

“If we can get juice locally we’d far rather do that because it’s $2,300 to send a truck down here full of juice. It’s not cheap,” said Blanchard.

But getting local apple growers on board might prove to be a little more difficult.

“Most of these big guys are contracted with Tree Top or somebody similar that’s buying all their apples,” said Florence. “It’s a chicken or egg kind of scenario where we have to get producers to commit to be able to justify the project but you can’t really get them to commit until you’ve proven something to them.”

Florence recently submitted an application for a $19,000 USDA grant to continue planning the food hub project and he’s confident he’ll be funded “pretty soon.”

“It’s nice that USDA is helping to support the planning process because I’ve got two or three other full-time people working on just this hub and these business plans and running simulation models and trying to make sure that it works because it’s too easy to lose money,” said Florence.

Moving forward with the project, Florence will be looking for more grants and possibly seeking private funding to purchase processing equipment, which he calls “key infrastructure pieces that we can’t live without.”

“I think a lot of the press that comes out wants to make it sound very positive that local food is budding and blossoming and that everything is going well,” said Florence. “We’re seeing a lot of improvement, but this is a critical point where we’re counting on support from the local community to help us move forward with local food and keep it going.”

STARTS WEDNESDAY JULY 1

By all means, do not go see Me and Earl and the Dying Girl if you don’t like comedy… or movies… or life, for that matter. If you have no intention of seeing this film–destined to be on my and many other critics’ 2015 top 10 lists—you are hereby forbidden from reading the remainder of this column. You can turn the page now. I’ll wait...

OK. Now that they’re gone, we can get back to this quite special film, Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, which fits nicely in the same groove of smart, wry comedies where Little Miss Sunshine, Garden State, (500) Days of Summer and Lars and the Real Girl landed.

Olivia Cooke is Rachel, Thomas Mann is Greg, and RJ Cyler is Earl in Me and Earl and the Dying Girl.

This new mini-masterpiece, scripted by Jesse Andrews from his own bestselling YA novel and directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon, was Then there’s Rachel, the “dying girl,” and the co-opting what he calls partial “citizenship” in the runaway most-buzzed about film at the star-making performance from Olivia Cooke. most of the high school’s “warring nations”: Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, snagjocks, nerds, theater geeks, goths and the nearly With so many young adult novels and movies ging both the Grand Jury Prize and coveted of late featuring terminal heroines (If I Stay, homicidal.

Me and Earl and the Dying Girl begins deathly afraid this movie might be heading down “Some people think Earl [RJ Cyler] is my as a mildly amusing coming-of-age film but a familiar path of morbidity. Fortunately, Me friend,” says Greg. He’s more like a co-workquickly evolves into something much more. and Earl and the Dying Girl has little patience for er.” That “work” they do is About 20 minutes in, rather unique, inspired by their such nonsense.

KICKENDED There are places scattered around Russia where statues from the former Soviet Union are collected into makeshift parks.

In some they lay haphazardly together—Lenin leaning against Stalin leaning against Marx leaning against a giant concrete tractor—while others serve as official “memento” galleries of a fallen superpower. kickended.com Kickended.com serves the same function for failed dreams.

Even at a time when any upstart with the glimmer of an idea can beg for money on the Internet, the laws of the market are still cruel. Witness the personal “geiger counter with GPS mapping and logging,” perfect for your next backpacking trip through Chernobyl. Or a smartphone app that will finally “unite all blue ball handball players.” Or the sure-to-be New York Times Best Seller Take a Walk in My Shoes: A story based on child molestation (give $15 and you’ll receive a T-shirt emblazoned with the book cover and a description of the story).

Kickended.com has gathered together 11,276 Kickstarter campaigns that, like the above examples, raised a grand total of $0 during their funding cycles.

At its best, Kickended is a catalog of stunted ambition, ingenuity and desire. At its worst, it’s a Dumpster filled with lazy, derivative crapola that reveals the shallowness of its creators. Either way, it’s a monument to the strivings of the Internet Age, complete with a decent dose of schadenfreude.

SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF SHASTA IN MATTER OF THE ADOPTION PETITION OF: WYATT JAMES PRINDIVILLEMORERO Adopting Parent Case No.: 14A5547 CITATION TO PARENT THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

TO: GINGER YOUNG By order of this court you are hereby advised that you may appear before the judge presiding in Department 11 of this court on 6/17/2015 at 4:00 p.m. then and there to show cause, if any you have, why WYATT JAMES PRINDIVILLEMORERO should not be declared free from your custody and control for the purpose of freeing WYATT JAMES PRINDIVILLE-MORERO for placement for adoption. The following information concerns rights and procedures that relate to this proceeding for the termination of custody and control of said minor as set forth in Family Code Section 7860 et seq.: 1. At the beginning of the proceeding the court will consider whether or not the interests of the minor child require the appointment of counsel. If the court finds that the interests of the minor do require such protection, the court will appoint counsel to represent him, whether or not he is able to afford counsel. The minor will not be present in court unless he requests or the court so orders.

2. If a parent of the minor appears without counsel and is unable to afford counsel, the court must appoint counsel for the par-

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): To determine whether you are aligned with the cosmic flow, please answer the following questions: 1. Would you say that your current situation is more akin to treading water in a mosquito-ridden swamp or conducting a ritual of purification in a clear mountain stream? 2. Have you been wrestling with boring ghosts and arguing with traditions that have lost most of their meaning? Or have you been transforming your past and developing a riper relationship with your roots? 3. Are you stuck in a gooey muck? Or are you building a flexible new foundation?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus singer Sam Smith won four Grammys this year, largely on the strength of his hit single “Stay with Me.” The song has a lush gospel choir backing up his lead vocals, or so it seems. But in fact, every voice in that choir is his own. He recorded 20 separate harmony tracks that were woven together to create the big sound. What would be the equivalent in your world, Taurus? How could you produce a wealth of support for yourself?

What might you do to surround yourself with a web of help and nourishment? How can you amplify and intensify your efforts so they have more clout? Now would be an excellent time to explore possibilities like these.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Born under the sign of Gemini, Gustave Courbet (1819-1877) was a French painter who upset traditionalists. Unlike many of his contemporaries, he wasn’t interested in creating idealistic art based on historical and religious themes. He focused on earthy subjects about which he had direct experience, like the day-to-day lives of peasants and laborers. So even though he became a highly praised celebrity by his mid-30s, the arbiters of the art world tried to exclude him. For example, they denied him a place in Exposition Universelle, a major international exhibition in Paris. In response, Courbet built a temporary gallery next door to the main hall, where he displayed his own work. As you strive to get your voice heard, Gemini, I urge you to be equally cheeky and innovative. Buy yourself a megaphone or erect your own clubhouse or launch a new enterprise. Do whatever it takes to show who you really are.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “I am trying to be unfamiliar with what I am doing,” said composer John Cage in describing his creative process. That’s excellent counsel for you to meditate on, Cancerian.

The less expertise and certainty you have about the rough magic you’re experimenting with, the more likely it is that this magic will lead you to useful breakthroughs. To bolster Cage’s advice and help you get

the most from your period of selfreinvention, I offer you this quote from Picasso: “I imitate everyone except myself.”

the project of a lifetime. The time between now and your birthday in 2016 will be an especially favorable phase to do so. Start ruminating on what it might be.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your words of wisdom come from Leo artist Andy Warhol: “Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years, when they could just say, ‘So what.’ That’s one of my favorite things to say. ‘So what.’”

Can I interest you in that approach, Leo? It has similarities to the Buddhist strategy of cultivating non-attachment—of dropping your fixations about matters that can’t be controlled or changed. But I suspect you would draw special benefits from the breezy, devil-maycare spirit of Warhol’s version. So start there.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): It’s the power-building phase of your astrological cycle. To take maximum advantage, convey the following message to your subconscious mind: “I know you will provide me with an abundance of insight, inspiration and energy for whatever intention I choose to focus on. And during the next four weeks, my intention will be to cultivate, expand and refine my personal power. I will especially focus on what author Stephen R. Covey called ‘the capacity to overcome deeply embedded habits and to cultivate higher, more effective ones.’”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In her late 20s, J. K. Rowling was a single mother living on welfare.

That’s when she began work on her Harry Potter books. Craig Newmark had turned 42 by the time he founded Craigslist. One of the world’s most oft-visited websites is huffingtonpost.com, which Arianna Huffington established when she was 54. As for Harland Sanders, creator of KFC: He didn’t begin building the global empire of friedchicken restaurants until the age of 65. I hope the preceding serves as a pep talk, Virgo, reminding you that it’s never too late to instigate

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): I’m a big fan of science and logic and objective thinking. Most of us need more of that good stuff. The world would be a saner, safer place if we all got regular lessons on how to be more reasonable and rational. But in the immediate future, Scorpio, I’ll steer you in a different direction. I believe you will benefit from injecting your imagination with primal raw crazy wild mojo. For example, you might read utopian science fiction and fairy tales about talking animals and poetry that scrambles your intellectual constructs. You could remember your

dreams and ruminate about them as if they were revelations from the Great Beyond. You may also find it healthy to fantasize profusely about forbidden and impossible and hilarious adventures.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There are lots of inquiries and invitations coming your way— perhaps too many. I don’t think you should pursue all of them. In fact, I suspect that only one would ultimately make you a better human being and a braver explorer and a wiser lover.

And that one, at first glance, may have not as much initial appeal as some of the others. So your first task is to dig deep to identify the propositions that are attractive on the surface but not very substantial.

Then you’re more likely to recognize the offer that will have lasting value even if it doesn’t make a spectacular first impression.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “I find a lot of people physically attractive, but finding people mentally and spiritually attractive is different and much harder for me.”

So says 40ozshawty on her Tumblr page. If you share that frustration, I have good news. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you’re due to encounter a higherthan-usual percentage of mentally and spiritually attractive people in the next six weeks. But I wonder how you’ll deal with this abundance.

Will you run away from it, feeling

overwhelmed by the prospect that your life could get more interesting and complicated? Or will you embrace it, daringly welcoming the interesting complications?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I think you will generate good fortune for yourself by choosing between two equally invigorating but challenging tasks: losing your illusion or using your illusion. Both are quite worthy of your attention and intelligence. To succeed at either would fuel your emotional growth for months to come. You probably can’t do them both, however. So which will it be: Will you purge the illusion, or put it to work for you?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Do you sometimes imagine yourself to be an underachieving underdog?

If so, I suggest you start weaning yourself from that fantasy. Do you on occasion allow people to take advantage of you? It’s time to outgrow that role. Do you ever flirt with being a self-pitying martyr? Say bye-bye to that temptation. Cosmic forces are conspiring to relieve you of tendencies to act in any or all of those ways. I’m not saying you will instantly transform into a swashbuckling hero who knocks people over with your radiant self-assurance. But you will, at the very least, be ready to learn much, much more about how to wield your vulnerability as a superpower.

3. The court may appoint either the public defender or private counsel. If private counsel is appointed, he or she will receive a reasonable sum for compensation and expenses, the amount of which will be determined by the court. The amount must be paid by the real parties in interest, but not by the minor, in such proportions as the court believes to be just. If, however, the court finds that any of the real parties in interest cannot afford counsel, the amount will be paid by the county.

4. The court may continue the proceeding for not more than thirty (30) days as necessary to appoint counsel to become acquainted with the case.

Dear Minerva, I recently moved in with my parents and younger brothers. I like two of my brothers, but the youngest has been getting on my nerves! I’m in charge of house cleaning, but every time I ask him to help, he tells me he’s not going to do it. I can’t get him to do what he’s supposed to do.

My mom has tried and failed at punishing him for it. I am starting to resent him and moving back in with my family.

What can I do?

Dear Patience, Unfortunately, you are not under your own roof nor are you the parent. He’s acting like a younger sibling would be prone to act. If keeping the house clean is your job, you are ultimately responsible, whether or not your brother cooperates. Unless Mom can change his mind, you have to grin and bear it. I don’t know how long you were out of the home, but in that time, the household dynamics have shifted. Your brother is not likely going to see you as a parental figure. I would have a serious talk with your mother, and then see what kind of arrangement can be made that gives you control over consequences. If not, reassess your need to have control over him, or reassess your need to live with your parents.
