EDITOR’S NOTE 14TH ANNUAL BW COVER ART AUCTION The walls in our newsroom at BWHQ are about to be barren. All year we get to enjoy the original art that appears on our covers but when it comes time for Boise Weekly’s annual Cover Art Auction we pull down all those pieces and take them to the auction block. It’s bittersweet—we miss being surrounded by work from some of the area’s finest artists, but we know the auction benefits a number of worthy causes. For one, a portion of the proceeds support our cover art grant program, which since 2001 has channeled more than $100,000 in direct contributions to local art. A few years back, we also instituted a profit-sharing system with individual artists, who now take home 30 percent of whatever their pieces bring at auction. Finally, we put the remainder toward supporting our long-form investigative journalism program, BW Watchdogs. That’s already a triple-win, but let’s not forget the cover auction is also a kickass party, with food, beer and wine from sponsors Bonefish Grill, Highlands Hollow Brewhouse and Cinder Wines, and this year it’s in the elegant environs of the ballroom at The Owyhee (also a sponsor). Doors open at 5 p.m. and the auction begins at 6 p.m. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased online at bwca.boiseweekly.com. We also can’t forget to give a shout out to sponsors D.L. Evans Bank, Evermore Prints, and Van Dyck Frame and Design, as well as the amazing artists who contribute their work to the cover of BW each week. Check out our guide to the works on offer at the 14th annual BW Cover Art Auction on Page 13, and start planning how you’ll place your bids with auctioneer Josh Houk. If you don’t come out a winner bidder, don’t fret. This year we’re also offering prints and postcards of cover pieces, so everybody can go home with some new art. That’s, like, a win-win-win-win-win. —Zach Hagadone

RETURN TO HEAVEN
And this time, I wasn’t there for the fun parts BILL COPE Months ago, I told you of my trip to Heaven. Cynics might have misinterpreted my revelations as a ploy to exploit the popularity of books by people who have returned from the afterlife following near-death experiences, or “NDEs.” Some might even suspect I was fishing for a book deal, as Heavenly travelogues seem to be an easier path to getting published than actually writing something worth reading. What... ever. When I made the decision to relate my trip beyond the Pearly Gates, I expected to be doubted, perhaps even to be called a charlatan. Besides, it didn’t work. Not one damn publisher contacted me with a proposal. I was prepared to come up with all sorts of inspiring crap, enough to fill a six... seven book series, but noooo!... I guess my neardeath experience and ensuing trip to Heaven weren’t good enough for those bastards at Simon & Schuster. So I abandoned the dream of having the story of my Heavenly drive by on the best-seller list. That is, until a couple of weeks ago, when I learned of another ex-dead person making her mark in the other-worldy market. Julie Rowe had her NDE in 2004, and her two books (A Greater Tomorrow and The Time Is Now) have caused quite a stir among a certain group of people who expect things to go south any day now. You know who I mean. They’re the people who have been stockpiling pork and beans and camping equipment in the basement for years. And by “things,” I mean the economy, lawand-order, civilization and/or the world. I haven’t actually read Ms. Rowe’s books—my approach to research does not include having to buy anything or be bored—but it is my understanding that while she was in Heaven, an ancestor of hers showed her visions of the near future: martial law is declared, organized society goes kerflooey, Satan runs around like a drunken teenager kicking up shitstorms—you know... the usual stuff. Now that I’ve learned of Ms. Rowe’s publishing success, I realize what I was doing wrong. See, I was trying to tell of all the cool things Heaven has to offer and how great it is to die, while Julie Rowe is focusing on what a crap-hole it’s going to turn into down here on Earth. Well hell, I can do that, too! I told myself. So I went to the same fast-food joint in which I’d choked before, repeated my NDE with another chunk of un-chewed chicken, and popped back up to Heaven. Luckily, I got the same Orientation Angel (O.A.), and when he (she?) tried to show me all the groovy stuff, I insisted on being shown the tribulation stuff. Following are a few of the horrific visions I was given, but you’ll understand that I’m saving the best stuff for the book. Incidentally, I made sure to call for an ambulance before I started wolfing down nuggets. Ain’t no book deal unless I’m around to write it, right? •••
It all starts in Texas. Dallas, to be exact. The Earth cracks open like a rotting cantaloupe and out pours all the pestilence and evil and cultural degradation you can imagine. “Why Texas?” I asked my O.A. “Because the Big Guy doesn’t like anyone telling Him what he can mess with,” she (he?) said. We were watching the horror unfold on what looked like a 3-D IMax screen, only it was really, really huge. Like, as big as Mount Everest, I’d say. And the popcorn was free. Much of what was said by the vision’s narrator—who sounded just like Orson Welles—was hard to make out because as the images grew ever more dire, the musical background grew louder and louder. It was that thudda-thudda music from Carmina Burana, of course. Seriously, what else could serve as a score for the end of the world? Gilbert and Sullivan? Not bloody likely. If I was hearing Orson right, it seems that once everyone gets covered with boils and frogs, and all the currency loses its value, and people are so hungry they are eating their lawns, the evil president—it was hard to see his face but I think it was Joe Biden—will declare martial law and bring in foreign troops to lock up all the militia and Second Amendment guys in concentration camps. Only the foreign troops aren’t quite human. They’re like a combination of hellish demons and San Francisco Gay Pride paraders. As America looks increasingly like a nationwide, 24/7 Burning Man festival, only with no marijuana or sunscreen, the devout few will pack all their freeze dried food, gold shares they bought on Glenn Beck’s recommendation and their videos of Red Dawn (to serve as a training film) into fifth wheels, and take to the hills. However the Three Horsemen of the Apocalypse will not make it easy for them. That’s right, there’s only three Horsemen of the Apocalypse. War, Famine and Death are still around, but not Conquest. I asked my O.A. why and he (she?) explained, “Ah! That Conquest was always a big spoiled brat, you know? And when he heard of videogames, he took off. Haven’t heard a word from him since.” Just as it was getting to the good part where the vision would have shown what will happen to people like Kim Kardashian and Bill O’Reilly, I could hear the ambulance coming into the parking lot and I knew my NDE was soon to end. “Gee, I wanted to see more,” I complained, and my O.A. stamped my wrist with an ultraviolet ink stamp. “That’ll get you back in any time you want,” he (she?) said. And that’s when the EMTs got to me. Stay tuned for more chapters... er... visions. BOISE WEEKLY.COM
OPINION ANXIOUS PARENTS Vaccinations and Puppy Porn JOHN REMBER Juno, who joined our family earlier this summer, is now 5 months old. She’s 100 percent Australian, half shepherd and half cattle dog. When we announced her genetic background, one of Julie’s Facebook friends warned us she might be smarter than both of us put together. Thus far we have no evidence to the contrary. She’s more or less potty trained, goes to her crate when told, barks violent distaste when Julie and I dance to ’80s music in the living room, and is learning English. That’s way ahead of where Julie and I were when we were her age. Yesterday, at morning coffee, Juno brought me Squirrel from her toy box in the kitchen. Squirrel is a squeaky toy cleverly crafted to look like roadkill. She wanted me to throw Squirrel into the kitchen, where she would shake it and growl at it before bringing it back to me. “No, Juno,” I said. “I don’t want Squirrel. I want your stick. Go bring me your stick.” Juno took Squirrel back into the kitchen and got her stick, a short length of hickory that I sawed off a broken shovel handle. She chews on it instead of the legs of the furniture, at least so far. She pushed it at me. I took it from her and hid it. “No, Juno,” I said. “No playing with the stick until you bring me Squirrel.” She went into the kitchen and brought me Squirrel. I picked up Squirrel and threw it into the kitchen. “I’ll trade you your stick for Squirrel,” I told her. By this time, Juno really wanted her stick. She went into the kitchen for Squirrel and brought it to me. Finally honoring my end of the bargain, I tossed her stick back into the kitchen and she went after it. Much growling and chewing ensued. She stayed in the kitchen. Lessons in monetary theory were over for the day. “You’re messing with her mind again,” said Julie. “One of these days you’ll be sleeping on the couch, and she’ll rip your throat out.” “She’s learning grammar and economics,” I said. “Already she knows that capitalism produces terrible inequity, and she’s going on strike.” “Until lunch time,” said Julie. Julie thinks Juno’s commitment to food transcends her commitment to ideology. We have of course thought about Juno’s further education. We will buy her a set of the Lassie books, for their lessons in altruism and sacrifice rather than their portrayal of bourgeois farm life, and we’ll keep her well away from Jack London. White Fang and Call of the Wild are nothing but canine eco-porn, in my opinion, to say nothing of the soulless nihilistic speciesism of “To Build A Fire.” We’ll hold off on 101 Dalmations for a while, because while we know full well there are people like Cruella DeVille in this world, BOISE WEEKLY.COM
we want Juno to enjoy an innocent puppyhood. She’ll grow up too fast as it is. We’re pretty sure she’s going to want a nondigital set of the Encyclopedia Brittanica, even if it’s a little out of date. You can find them cheap on Craiglist, and there’s a lot to chew on in those thousands of pages, and then there’s the covers as well. There are big decisions in Juno’s future. We’re certain she’s going to get a full scholarship for college, so we won’t have to mortgage the house, but which college? Choosing a college is not a simple thing these days. You don’t know whom she’s going to meet there, and you don’t know if she’ll be advised into a humanities major and end up as the barista with the weird hair at the local supermarket Starbucks. We are hoping that once she gets over her experiments with a puppyish anarchism, she’ll settle down, declare a finance major and have a career path like Carly Fiorina’s. We are of course getting her spayed, not only because there are too many puppies on the planet, but because we don’t want her coming home pregnant in high school and having to raise grandpuppies about the time we were expecting to have a peaceful retirement with a motorhome and winters in the secure parts of Baja. We considered just having “the talk” with her, and getting her an appointment with a good gynecologist. But these days, what with BST in dairy products and social media’s emerging behavioral norms, we don’t feel comfortable trusting in her adolescent impulse control—anybody’s adolescent impulse control, really. As of her next vet’s appointment, she will have all her vaccinations. No, we’re not afraid of autism. The studies have been done, the science is conclusive and vaccinations don’t cause it. What we don’t want is for her to bring bubonic plague carrying fleas home from a day of digging up Idaho ground squirrels, or to get rabies from the local bats, or to get distemper from promiscuous local foxes. “It’s hard to prove a negative,” I tell Juno. “That’s why people believe anti-vaxxers. But you’re smarter than that.” In the end, we simply hope that she will grow up to be a happy dog, with a life full of ski days and hikes, and maybe the occasional vole caught on the ditch bank. But we have bigger fears. We live next to the highway, and it’s full of humans driving 70 mph in giant pickup trucks, talking on their cell phones. We make her stay on the far side of the house, we make her stop and wait before crossing the asphalt, and we tell her to stay away from things with wheels. “Listen to what we’re saying,” we say. “You don’t want to break our hearts.” BOISEweekly | OCTOBER 14–20, 2015 | 5
PLANNED OFFENSIVE
Citizens packed the Boise Library auditorium for an Oct. 8 consideration of homelessness.
BOISE GATHERS FOR COMMUNITY FORUM ON HOMELESSNESS Boise Police Chief Bill Bones had no specifics to share in addressing the situation at Cooper Court, a tent city that has grown only feet from the Interfaith Sanctuary. “But there is a search for answers. One of our biggest struggles that we have is we have shelter space,” Bones said. BPD efforts to coax people out of Cooper Court and into nearby shelters has met with some success, and while Bones said he will take a “multi-pronged approach” to the encampment, he gave no hint as to when or what form his strategy would take. “It can’t be the new normal,” he said. “It’s unacceptable as a community to not take an active step and allow that to grow into a greater health and safety [risk].” Bones’ remarks were in front of a standing-room only Oct. 8 panel discussion on homelessness. He was joined by Ada County Commissioner Rick Yzaguirre, Boise Community Partnerships Director Diana Lachiondo and Boise/Ada County Homeless Coalition President Barbara Kemp. Moderated by Boise Weekly News Editor George Prentice, the panel focused on outlining homelessness services, considering new avenues available to those seeking to leave homelessness and challenges stakeholders face in implementing possible solutions. Bones said the people currently in Cooper Court are “the core of people in the most desperate need of help. We have an ongoing and growing health and safety issue. It’s a problem.” “We have to look at some interim options,” Kemp said. Solutions are few. Panelists and the public wrangled with treatments like a pop-up community proposed by Boise Alternative Shelter Cooperative, a group that has been working with a class at the University of Idaho to come up with low-cost, semi-permanent housing designs. BASC representative Lois Morgan said there are significant hurdles to building such a community by winter. “We need land. We need money. The problem is where,” she said. Attendees also heard about Pay for Success, an innovative program chronicled in the Oct. 7 edition of Boise Weekly. According to the model, private investors 7 step up to fund large-scale solutions for a community’s most significant social 6 | OCTOBER 14–20, 2015 | BOISEweekly

Idaho’s total three-year contribution to Medicaid for Planned Parenthood abortions: $108 GEORGE PRENTICE The opening salvo in what will likely be the 2016 war over Planned Parenthood funding in Idaho hasn’t been fired yet, but the muskets are being loaded. Some Idaho lawmakers began battle preparations as early as July. “We’re getting many inquiries relating to this today,” wrote Elke Shaw-Tulloch, public health administrator for the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, responding July 21 to a flurry of requests from Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter and the Idaho Legislature. The requests triggered a string of emails and phone calls involving at least 27 members of the Idaho House and Senate. They came in the wake of a series of deceptively edited “sting” videos from anti-abortion activists purporting to show Planned Parenthood officials selling fetal tissue. The controversy gained national traction as some far-right Republicans called for the outright defunding of Planned Parenthood. Shortly thereafter, a number of Idaho legislators and representatives from Otter’s office wanted to know how many Idaho tax dollars had been put toward abortions—particularly those funded by Medicaid. More than a few of the inquirers didn’t want to limit their funding questions to abortions. They wanted to elevate the debate to include all Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood. “Does DHW [Department of Health and Welfare] still provide funding to Planned Parenthood?” asked Jared Tatro, principal budget and policy analyst for the Idaho Legislature, in a July 21 email blast to several DHW executives. Officials with DHW reminded Tatro that Idaho Medicaid funds health services for some Idaho low-income men and women, but 70 percent comes from federal dollars for most health care services and 90 percent for family planning. Tatro drilled further in his DHW request, saying legislators needed to know how many Idaho tax dollars were funding abortions. “You asked earlier what the reason for this request was. It does have to do with the selling of aborted baby body parts,” wrote Tatro in a follow up email to DHW officials. Tatro was informed that between 2012 and 2014, only two abortions funded by Medicaid were performed by Planned Parenthood in Idaho.
Boise advocates defended reproductive rights Sept. 29, the same day Planned Parenthood Federation of America President Cecile Richards (right) sat before a marathon U.S. Congressional hearing.
The state’s portion amounted to a total of $108. Tatro was also reminded Idaho Medicaid dollars can only be used to pay for abortions in cases of rape or incest or if the mother’s life is at risk. DHW Director Dick Armstrong sent a letter on Sept. 30 to all Idaho legislators, offering a synopsis of his department’s interactions with Planned Parenthood concerning Medicaid. He told them most Planned Parenthood visits included wellness checks, blood tests, immunizations, pregnancy tests, contraception and ultrasounds. Armstrong said Idaho’s share of Medicaid funding in 2012-2014 totaled $79,6923 and reiterated only $108 in state funds helped pay for two abortions performed by Planned Parenthood. “Planned Parenthood is a health care provider to 2.7 million people across the nation. One in five women come into our health centers during their lifetime,” said Hannah Brass Greer, Idaho legislative director and public affairs manager for Planned Parenthood Votes Northwest. “But we’re still fighting back against those videos.” The videos, from a group calling itself the Center for Medical Progress, implied that employees of Planned Parenthood were trafficking fetal tissue, but there has been no evidence of any such activity. During her marathon Sept. 29 appearance before a U.S. congressional hearing, Planned Parenthood Federation of America President Cecile Richards called the videos “fraudulent,” “offensive” and “categorically untrue.” “We know a bit more about the Center for Medical Progress, beginning with the fact that it’s not a medical organization. They’re three antiabortion activists. Plus, they won’t release any of their source videos. They’re alleging we did something illegal, but that’s simply not true,” Greer told Boise Weekly. “But it’s important to note that they released those videos just as we started to see
presidential politics heat up.” Therein lies the real issue: It’s all about politics. “I fully expect a significant political push at the Idaho Statehouse in 2016,” Greer added. Idaho House Reps. Brent Crane, R-Nampa, and Stephen Hartgen, R-Twin Falls, told the Twin Falls Times-News proposed bills targeting Planned Parenthood were already in the works for the 2016 session. Both pointed to the videos. “I personally found the national videos to be abhorrent,” said Hartgen. “Legislators are concerned. Legislators are upset, and they’re going to demand action on this issue in the 2016 session,” echoed Crane. Should the anti-Planned Parenthood push come to pass, Greer will be one of the busiest people at the Idaho Statehouse come January. “This will be my 10th session; we see attacks all the time. They’re usually attacks on services, but this is the first time that we’re expecting specific attacks against Planned Parenthood.” Otter said in mid-August he had little desire to investigate Planned Parenthood in Idaho, regardless of the controversial videos. In an Aug. 6 letter to legislators, Otter wrote there was no evidence Planned Parenthood violated any law. However, Otter wrote he was under the impression there were troubling “actions” from Planned Parenthood in other parts of the United States. “Their actions are shocking and deeply troubling,” wrote Otter. “I have challenged Idaho’s Planned Parenthood officials to reassure Idahoans that such activities have not occurred here.” Greer said she expects the controversy to “amplify the political noise in 2016.” “But voters usually see right through this,” she said. “This is political grandstanding. In the meantime, we’re going to do what we always do: talk to the public, setting the record straight.” BOISE WEEKLY.COM
The nonprofit bought itself 30 more days to put an offer on its space
One clear-cut conclusion at the Oct. 8 homelessness forum: “We can’t do it alone.”
JESSICA MURRI Finding out the fledgling nonprofit you run may soon be out of a home isn’t the best birthday present, but it’s what Boise Hive Executive Director Juta Geurtsen got on Sept. 25, her special day. Rather than throw up her hands in defeat, she had a tiny tattoo inked on her wrist—“00:00:01,” referencing the countdown leading to Boise Hive’s possible eviction and a reminder to stay hopeful until the last second. “We expected it, then we didn’t,” Geurtsen said. “When it did happen, it happened very fast.” Boise Hive (boisehive.org), which opened its doors in Nov. 2014 and provides low-cost rehearsal space and mental health services for musicians, leases the building it’s in at 3907 Custer Drive and was put on notice after a prospective buyer offered $210,000 in cash to purchase the building and convert it into a warehouse. Boise Hive had 15 days to meet the offer or vacate. On Oct. 8, the day before the money was needed to trump the cash offer, Boise Hive had raised about $29,000 through GoFundMe—less than half the $75,000 it was aiming for, which could be used to leverage bridge funding from investors. The situation seemed dire, but when Geurtsen got onstage during Boise Hive’s fundraising concert Oct. 8, it was to deliver a surprising announcement. “The GoFundMe campaign gave us the ability to put an offer on this building, securing it for another 30 days,” she told the crowd, which responded with cheers.“It really started coming together today.” In other words, at the last second. Geurtsen squeezed the update between performances by local bands Bread & Circus, Lounge on Fire and Sun Blood Stories; Interfaith Sanctuary Housing Services’ house band; and Portland, Ore.-based band The Ghost Ease. They played under a lingering pink and purple sunset in hopes of helping Boise Hive stay put. Geurtsen said her organization gets first right of refusal on the space, and putting down an offer knocks the other offer off the table, giving the organization 30 days to raise the full $210,000. Instead, she’s hopeful an investor may buy the building and lease it back. “Nothing’s official until it’s on paper,” she told BOISE WEEKLY.COM
Bread and Circus played at Boise Hive’s fundraising concert Oct. 8, just moments before Hive Executive Director Juta Geurtsen delivered her good news.
Boise Weekly, “but we’re pretty confident we found someone willing to do that.” The building housed Custom Recording and Sound for more than three decades but was put on the market after Custom Recording co-owner Paul Franklin died last year. “Paul was the brains,” said Sylissa Franklin, who, with her late-husband, owned both the business and the building. “After we closed the business, I had no more use for the building.” Franklin put the building up for sale around the same time she was approached by Boise Hive, whose founders deemed it the perfect place since it was already soundproofed and equipped with recording studios. Recreating a similar setup elsewhere would be financially impossible for the nonprofit. Jodi Peterson, a volunteer with Boise Hive, said the people running the nonprofit didn’t even want to think about having to move. “We don’t want to think that far in advance because we know this is where we should be,” Peterson said. “To do what we have right now in another building is going to cost a lot of money, and we’re going to lose traction.” Peterson remained hopeful throughout the fundraising campaign. “Positive thinking,” she said. “Won’t it be a great story two weeks from now when we will have done it?” After she delivered the news to the audience at Thursday’s fundraising event, Geurtsen invited Johnny Hill to the stage. He sat on a barstool in front of the mic, a guitar on his knee, and a ball cap bearing the words “Vietnam Veteran” on his head. Hill runs a guitar program through the V.A., and he hosts a free veteran music jam every Friday night at Boise Hive.
He spent every day of the past few weeks at Boise Hive, doing whatever he could to help out. He wrote a song about saving Boise Hive, which he sang while reading the lyrics by flashlight. “Can you lend a helping hand/ Can you help us save her,” he sang. “Let her be.” Hill, an Idaho native, spent three years on the U.S.S. Chipola, a U.S. Navy oil ship, off the coast of Vietnam. After he returned, Hill battled alcoholism until he went to Boise State University with the help of the Idaho Division of Vocational Rehabilitation and earned a degree in social work. He used his experience to become a drug and alcohol counselor at Port of Hope and the Saint Alphonsus addiction recovery center. He still does some peer-to-peer counseling on the side with young vets and teaches them to play guitar. He likes blues and country western music the most. Hill told Boise Weekly about the way he has seen music help veterans through the aftermath of war. “Playing music has a double purpose for vets,” Hill said. “It allows us to keep meeting each other, and it allows us to be creative, to play our emotions out. We discovered it’s a good stress receiver and it helps people who have trouble sleeping. It gives an outlet. ... This place has become important to us.” Nothing is for sure on the fate of Boise Hive, but Geurtsen and her team are committed to navigating the legal paperwork and continuing the fundraising necessary to keep the doors open. “We got a donation for $10,000 from some retirees who just moved to Boise and saw us on the news,” she said. “People understand that the art and music scene here is important. ... I’m exhausted, but I’m so excited for the future of this place.”
needs. Only when success is reached, do taxpayers repay the funders. 6 “We can’t do it alone,” said Lachiondo.” Homelessness may be seen as an urban issue, and the burden of funding and administering local solutions like Allumbaugh House and emergency shelters can fall on municipalities, counties and stakeholder groups. “But if you’re looking to state government for a solution, it’s not going to happen,” Yzaguirre said. On a local level, the Ada County Jail continues to carry much of the burden of urban homelessness. Currently, one in eight inmates there are homeless, and Yzaguirre advocated for increasing access to mental health services to help keep chronically homeless people out of the legal system and into programs that would help them regain control of their lives. He noted that while Ada County has few active resources to help people out of homelessness, the issue “touches us in so many ways,” from its impact on the jail to regional crisis centers. The United States has one of the highest incarceration rates in the world, and Idaho has the third-highest incarceration rate in the country. During a question-and-answer period, public defender Kevin Rogers asked the panel where the legal protections for people experiencing homelessness are, citing Boise’s public camping ordinance as an example of a contradiction in policy that has, according to some critics, criminalized homelessness. “Boise has an ordinance that allows people to sleep during the day, but not at night,” he said. Rogers opened the door for panelists to explore homelessness as a phenomenon beyond Cooper Court and the county lockup. Topics included affordable housing—Boise has 300 such housing units—but Lachiondo told the audience the term can be misleading, since by one definition, “affordable housing” can mean rent is at or below one-third of a renter’s gross income but by another, it can mean rent is at or below the mean rent in a city. “Often what people mean when they say ‘affordable housing’ is ‘workforce housing,’” she said. —Harrison Berry BOISEweekly | OCTOBER 14–20, 2015 | 7

CITIZEN a while. Ultimately, I said to myself, “Self, the world doesn’t really need another lawyer.” That came shortly after I had read Zorba the Greek. I came back to Idaho. Eventually I was going to head up to visit a brother at a ranch in Montana. I camped out in Idaho City on the way and wandered into O’Leary’s Saloon.

BRUCE REICHERT
The Outdoor Idaho host talks about Idaho City, O’Leary’s Saloon and Zorba the Greek GEORGE PRENTICE Bruce Reichert, host and executive producer of Idaho Public Television’s Outdoor Idaho, turns 66 years old this month—but don’t expect to find him anywhere near a birthday cake. “I try to be out deer hunting or walking in the woods. I make a point of it. I’ve stopped celebrating birthdays,” he said. “I’ve been a late bloomer. I’m doing things now that a lot of people would probably have done 10 years earlier. People who count their years? That’s not a good thing.” Reichert may not celebrate his own birthday, but he has reason to be proud of Outdoor Idaho’s, which entered its 33rd season this month with an exploration of Idaho’s “Middle Earth,” taking cameras deep into Gem State caves. Looking at the slate of upcoming programs, it is clear Reichert and his colleagues aren’t resting on their laurels, which are plentiful: hundreds of national and regional awards, including Emmys and Edward R. Murrow prizes. It was a rare opportunity for Boise Weekly when Reichert—reluctantly, at first—agreed to a sitdown interview. For the record, you’re not an Idaho native. I like to say that I came to Idaho with my pants on. Our family came to Boise from Minot, N.D., when I was 10. I came from a very stable family. When I think of my upbringing, I think of Leave it to Beaver. I remember when I and my brothers were kids, we would go out into a field with our bows and arrows, convinced we were exploring the vast wilderness. What Boise schools did you attend? Sacred Heart Catholic School. I left home when I was 14 to go to a Catholic seminary in Oregon for five years. I don’t talk too much about that. I hope you know I can’t leave that topic just yet. How important is faith in your life? Let’s put it this way: I’m a recovering Catholic. I’m a fairly spiritual person. I certainly understand the power of religion in people’s lives, and I know how exciting and safe I felt 8 | OCTOBER 14–20, 2015 | BOISEweekly
when I had a vision of a world that included a personal god. I’m guessing that in your life’s work, you have found yourself in places—particularly in Idaho—where you may have sensed the presence of a higher spirit. When I was growing up, I would sit off to the side at my desk in grade school so my guardian angel would have a place next to me. I don’t know if it was the Leave it to Beaver or Catholicism, but I knew I was special. I feel sorry for people who don’t intrinsically know that about themselves. While I certainly have my doubts about angels these days, I’m still infused with this, because it was a part of my young life. Ultimately, you attended the University of Oregon. I got a basic liberal arts degree; majored in history. I was preparing to go to law school, took the LSAT exam but went to Europe for
I know where you’re heading with this, and you certainly weren’t heading to Montana. The bartender told me he was leaving town the next day and that I should tend bar there. I knew nothing about bartending. I met Pat O’Leary, we hit it off, and I told him that I would stick around for a few weeks. That was 1974. You’ve been an Idaho City fixture ever since. How long were you behind that bar? About two years. Then I started teaching school part-time; I ran the county newspaper, Idaho World; became a part-time librarian while I built a new library; and a group of us would put on some pretty good stage productions. I wouldn’t call us hippies, but we had a different view on life and thought Idaho City was pretty special. And during all those years, you were building a house—the same home you’re living in now. I started in 1978 and, to some degree, I’m still working on it. It’s a vertical log cabin. When I moved in it didn’t have windows, so I put in stained glass windows because, believe it or not, it was cheaper. Were your first few Idaho City winters interesting? I certainly learned the value of insulation. Eight-inch lodgepole is not great insulation. Many of your life experiences, particularly storytelling, seemed to be the perfect combination of qualifications to do Outdoor Idaho. I’m blessed with what I do. That said, I know it’s very difficult to craft good nonfiction television, which is increasingly rare. It’s all-consuming if you want to do a good job. No question. I’m sure I’m not the first to tell you this, but the first time I saw Outdoor Idaho a couple of decades ago, I was stunned at the production value, which stacks up against any broadcast affiliate in the nation. That speaks well to the people I work with. It’s the continuity of that quality that is most impressive. Every single one of our shows could probably win an award. BOISE WEEKLY.COM
CITIZEN And usually does. I believe that if given a chance, most everyone rises to the occasion. Do you ever look at your ratings? I know they’re impressive and Idaho Public Television’s numbers are consistently among the highest in the nation. Let’s just say that I hear about them. Let’s talk about the mechanics of Outdoor Idaho. I’m presuming you do your camerawork first. Yes. We shoot footage before a script comes in. Do you storyboard your programs? Let me give you an example. I just got back from a four-day trip into the Sawtooths—16 miles in, 16 miles out—to trace the headwaters of the Boise River as part of a full program we’re producing on Idaho’s headwaters. So, if you were to come into my office, you would see a pretty big piece of paper that says, “Program in December” at the top and large categories: Snake River, Boise River, Salmon River and St. Joe River… That sounds like the frame of a storyboard. We went out into the Sawtooths and a number of other treks, did our interviews and plenty of shooting, brought the material back, ingested it into our computer and took transcriptions home. Then we try to figure out the timeframe to tell each headwater’s story, but our journeys inform those stories. A lot of our journey to the headwater of the Boise River will be about how we got there. We had a hell of a time getting there. Our journey into the headwater of the Selway included a pretty good discussion between an outfitter and a retired district ranger about wildfire decisions. Let me pause you there. Can I ask your personal opinion on our current national strategy to let wildfires burn? I live among large ponderosa pines and Douglas firs. I’m a big believer in managing forests. I have a hunch, especially after this past year, that it’s going to become a lot harder for Idaho’s environmental community to push for leaving forests alone from management. I think it’s one of the reasons why people are so angry with the government. As we lose another generation of people who effected significant change for wilderness, I’m wondering if they’re being supplanted by young folks with equal fervor. It’s a problem. The young people who I think would be pushing for wilderness are usually on a mountain bike or hiking but I must tell you, when we hiked into the Sawtooths recently, through Atlanta, we saw just one other person hiking by himself. BOISE WEEKLY.COM
Speaking of engagement on wilderness issues, Outdoor Idaho has always walked a very delicate line and never advocates. I don’t like to preach to the choir. It’s most challenging to walk a fine line. Yet politics continues to weave its way into the wilderness fabric, and you seem to have found a sweet spot where we all coexist. I think I’m most proud of that. At any given time, how many Outdoor Idaho shows do you have in pre- or postproduction? Five or six. What does your Outdoor Idaho wish list look like? You’re looking at it [Reichert points to a page of titles of upcoming Outdoor Idaho projects]. There are about 10 topics for shows on this list, and they all look great. How about your own bucket list? You’re still looking at it. I’m presuming you’ll be checking these off sooner than later. How about your personal bucket list? I want to stay healthy. What’s your secret? For one, I don’t worry about getting old. How often do you commute from Idaho City to Boise? Three or four times a week. I used to do it every day. I would be remiss if I didn’t take you back to a previous comment—you were talking about Zorba the Greek. That was a long time ago. When I got out of college, presumably thinking I would be going to law school someday, I was bumming around Europe, selling my blood for money. I ended up on the Island of Crete. I must share with you that my editor told me he has an uncle who lives in Greece and he watches Outdoor Idaho online. In fact, he never misses it. Wow. High praise. We hear from people all over the world. After 33 years of Outdoor Idaho, how do those shows stack up in your mind’s eye? A scrap book, a diary, a Rolodex? It’s more than 300 shows. Sometimes I’ll look at a show I haven’t seen in a long time, and I’m almost always pleasantly surprised. BOISEweekly | OCTOBER 14–20, 2015 | 9

14TH ANNUAL BOISE WEEKLY COVER AUCTION
THE BURN AUCTION
We cover a lot of things at Boise Weekly, but our favorite coverage is on the first page of the paper—that is, the cover. Each week since 2001, we have featured work by local artists in the most visible place we can. For just as long, we’ve been auctioning off those works at a special party for artists, art lovers and lovers of artists. The 14th annual Boise Weekly Cover Auction is set for Thursday, Oct. 15 at the Owyhee Ballroom, complete with food, wine, beer and, of course, a once-a-year opportunity to bid on original local artwork. Artists receive 30 percent of the proceeds from sales with the remainder going toward the BW Cover Auction Grant program and to support BW’s investigative journalism mission. Everybody wins. Doors at 5 p.m., auction starts at 6 p.m., $15. Get presale tickets at bwca.boiseweekly.com. Owyhee Ballroom, 1109 Main St., 208-343-4611, boiseweekly.com.
Live auctions can be intense experiences as bids rise, adrenaline pumps and auctioneers reel off their rattle. The Burn Auction on Saturday, Oct. 17 turns up the heat (literally) even more by adding fire. Auction goers can bid on 24 original works from local artists like Tony Caprai, Lisa Roggenbuck, Danielle Demaray and Martin Wilke. If bids don’t reach the secret reserve price, the artwork is shoved into an incinerator. The auction takes place at the parking lot neighboring 10 Barrel Brewing, which will provide beer and finger foods. “It’s a reminder that if we don’t support local art in our community, it will be gone,” said organizer Ellen DeAngelis, who is also Boise Weekly’s classified ads manager. Artwork viewing starts at 5 p.m., and the auction starts at 7 p.m. 5 p.m., FREE. Parking lot beside 10 Barrel Brewing, 826 W. Bannock St., facebook.com: search “Burn Auction.”

EIGHTH ANNUAL VINYL PRESERVATION SOCIETY RECORD SHOW AND SWAP According to musicweek.com, the average increase in vinyl sales in the top 10 global music markets was 54.7 percent. In the United States—the world’s largest market—the increase was 52.8 percent, accounting for $181.6 million in sales. In contrast to the Internet-fueled era of cheap (or free) music, the vinyl boom shows consumers increasingly think the music they like is worth paying for—and storing on a shelf. For the savvy customer, there’s the Vinyl Preservation Society Idaho’s Eighth Annual Record Show and Swap, held Saturday, Oct. 17, at El Korah Shrine. There, you’ll find thousands of new and used albums.

SCREEN TO HAVE AND TO HOLD Freeheld: The right to a more perfect union GEORGE PRENTICE
Waxing by Lisa 20+ years experience Full Body Waxing, Eyebrow Design, Bikini To Brazilian, Male Body Waxing, Airbrush Make-up Artist
Freeheld, an elegant love story that asks us to reconsider our definition of justice for all, could use a little love right now. This handsome film is worthy of admiration, yet it has been excoriated by some of the nation’s top critics. “A superficial, didactic, big-screen movie of the week,” wrote the San Francisco Examiner. “Disappointingly flat,” said the Boston Globe. The “tomatometer” from Rotten Tomatoes’ compilation of nationwide critiques is a lousy 45 percent. I respectfully disagree. Hell, I disrespectfully disagree. At Freeheld’s foundation is a compassionate, intense, satisfying movie that champions the virtue of decency, and while I will concede expectations are extraordinarily high for a film chronicling a landmark LGBT ruling, what we have in Freeheld is a film more about how and who we choose to love, rather than legal entanglement. To ask Freeheld be held up as the end-all film about same-sex unions is as unreasonable as seeing 1993’s Philadelphia as the definitive film about the AIDS crisis—though there is good reason to compare the two films: Oscar nominee Ron Nyswaner wrote both screenplays. “I wanted to write about Laurel [Julianne Moore] and Stacie [Ellen Page] because they were ordinary people living ordinary lives, who found themselves in an extraordinary situation, and they responded in an extraordinary way,” Nyswaner told Boise Weekly in September following Freeheld’s world premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival. “I love that because of the depth of feeling they had for each other, they found the courage to make a difference in the world.” Freeheld, directed by Peter Sollett (Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist), is based on the true story of Laurel Hester and Stacie Andree, which first drew national attention in 2005. When Hester, a 23-year veteran of the Ocean County, New Jersey Police Department, was diagnosed with terminal

Coppola, you name it.” Deckart said the highlight 21 of IHFF will be the “No Budget Film School,” with guest instructor Mark Stolaroff, former principal of Next Wave Films, which kickstarted the career
of director Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight trilogy, Interstellar). “It’s an intensive, two-day workshop. Boise State will offer credits for the class, so we’re really hoping students, and that includes high-school students, will fill the
class. But yes, it’s open to the public,” said Deckart. “Thanks to a generous grant from the Boise City Department of Arts and History, we really knocked down the price to participate [$50, $25 for students]. It’s a critically rare
opportunity for Idaho writers and directors in-the-making.” From education to programming, IHFF is all about the future. Deckart said she already has even bigger plans for 2016. Time to order some more butcher paper. BOISE WEEKLY.COM
WINESIPPER GRENACHE WITH PANACHE I love grenache based wines. They a have a spicy, fresh, fruit forward component, which is great in cooler weather. Thought to have originated in Spain, the grape’s drawback is it ripens late—it needs sufficient heat to fully mature. It does well in the south of France (typically blended with syrah) and, not surprisingly, equally well in the hot, dry climate of Australia where it often stands alone. Here are the panel’s top grenache picks: 2010 CHATEAU TRILLOL GRENACHE SYRAH, $15 Nestled in the hills of southwest France, this Corbieres estate blended grenache with 40 percent syrah in 2010 for a fairly bold wine. The earthy aromas are filled with spicy red berry and a touch of herb. The flavors are rich and meaty, combining dark berry fruit and smooth tannins, balancing acidity with a little kalamata olive on the finish. 2013 2013 FLEGENHEIMER BROS. PAISANT RED, $20 From Australia’s McLaren Vale comes a grenache blend with a smattering of syrah (4 percent). This wine fooled me: I picked it as Old World. The aromas are bright and fruity with floral berry backed by spice and red licorice. The juicy fruit flavors are light and lively, and a mix of raspberry and spice with cinnamon comes through on the velvety finish. 2013 YALUMBA OLD BUSH VINE GRENACHE, $19 I’ve seen this Barossa estate’s low-yielding, gnarly vines: They’re between 75 and 80 years old, and they are impressive. This wine’s beautifully perfumed nose is a plush mix of cherry, berry, nutmeg and cinnamon. The palate is ripe, round and unmistakably Aussie, with big, sweet plum and berry fruit perfectly balanced by racy acidity. —David Kirkpatrick BOISE WEEKLY.COM

SHOOK TWINS, OCT. 17, NEUROLUX Laurie Shook, of Portland, Ore.-based folk band Shook Twins, discovered the giant golden egg on June 10, 2010 in Seattle. According to the story, Laurie saw a young man leaning against a wall with a beach ball-sized egg under his arm. He said some lady gave it to him, told him to sign it and pass it to the next person. He passed it to Laurie, who was immediately taken by it. She poured popcorn kernels into it, turning the egg into a giant shaker. Then she played it like a drum. The tale of the egg is every bit as charming as the Shooks themselves. Identical twins, Laurie and Katelyn, hail from Sandpoint, Idaho, and are warmly welcomed when they play anywhere in their home state. Their upbeat, eccentric folk incorporates banjo, electric and acoustic guitars, electric and upright bass, mandolin, beatboxing, glockenspiel and ukulele underpinning a harmony so perfect it could only come from identical twins. —Jessica Murri With Jonathan Warren and the Billy Goats. Doors at 7 p.m., show at 8 p.m., $12 adv., $15 door. Neurolux, 111 N. 11th St., 208-343-0866, neurolux.com

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Here’s actor Bill Murray’s advice about relationships: “If you have someone that you think is The One, don’t just say, ‘OK, let’s pick a date. Let’s get married.’ Take that person and travel around the world. Buy a plane ticket for the two of you to go to places that are hard to go to and hard to get out of. And if, when you come back, you’re still in love with that person, get married at the airport.” In the coming weeks, Aries, I suggest you make comparable moves to test and deepen your own closest alliances. See what it’s like to get more seriously and deliriously intimate. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Some firefighters use a wetter kind of water than the rest of us. It contains a small amount of biodegradable foam that makes it 10 times more effective in dousing blazes. With this as your cue, I suggest you work on making your emotions “wetter” than usual. By that I mean the following: When your feelings arise, give them your reverent attention. Marvel at how mysterious they are. Be grateful for how much life force they endow you with. Whether they are relatively “negative” or “positive,” regard them as interesting revelations that provide useful information and potential opportunities for growth. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell
is a BBC TV mini-series set in the early 19th century. It’s the fictional story of a lone wizard, Mr. Norrell, who seeks to revive the art of occult magic so as to accomplish practical works, like helping the English navy in its war against the French navy. Norrell is pleased to find an apprentice, Jonathan Strange, and draws up a course of study for him. Norrell tells Strange that the practice of magic is daunting, “but the study is a continual delight.” If you’re interested in taking on a similar challenge, Gemini, it’s available. CANCER (June 21-July 22): We humans have put buttons on clothing for seven millennia, but for a long time these small knobs and disks were purely ornamental— meant to add beauty, not serve any other function. That changed in the 13th century, when our ancestors finally got around to inventing buttonholes. Buttons could then serve an additional purpose: providing a convenient way to fasten garments. I foresee the possibility of a comparable evolution in your personal life, Cancerian. You have an opening to dream up further uses for elements that have previously been one-dimensional. Brainstorm about how you might expand the value of familiar things. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You would be wise to rediscover and revive your primal innocence.
28 | OCTOBER 14–20, 2015 | BOISEweekly
If you can figure out how to shed a few shreds of your sophistication and a few slivers of your excess dignity, you will literally boost your intelligence. That’s why I’m inviting you to explore the kingdom of childhood, where you can encounter stimuli that will freshen and sweeten your adulthood. Your upcoming schedule could include jumping in mud puddles, attending parties with imaginary friends, having uncivilized fun with wild toys, and drinking boisterously from fountains of youth. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): While still a young man, Virgo author Leo Tolstoy wrote, “I have not met one man who is morally as good as I am.” He lived by a strict creed. “Eat moderately” was one of his “rules of life,” along with “walk for an hour every day.” Others were equally stern: “go to bed no later than 10 o’clock,” “only do one thing at a time” and “disallow flights of imagination unless necessary.” He did provide himself with wiggle room, however. One guideline allowed him to sleep two hours during the day. Another specified he could visit a brothel twice a month. I’d love for you to be inspired by Tolstoy’s approach, Virgo. Now is a favorable time to revisit your own rules of life. As you refine and recommit yourself to these fundamental disciplines, be sure to give yourself enough slack.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Many astronomers believe our universe began with the Big Bang. An inconceivably condensed speck of matter exploded, eventually expanding into thousands of billions of stars. It must have been a noisy event, right? Actually, no. Astronomers estimate the roar of the primal eruption was just 120 decibels—less than the volume of a live rock concert. I suspect you are also on the verge of your own personal Big Bang, Libra. It, too, will be relatively quiet for the amount of energy it unleashes. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): For now, you are excused from further work on the impossible tasks that have been grinding you down. You may take a break from the unsolvable riddles and cease your exhaustive efforts. If you would also like to distance yourself from the farcical jokes the universe has been playing, go right ahead. To help enforce this transition, I hereby authorize you to enjoy a time of feasting and frolicking, which will serve as an antidote to your baffling trials. I hereby declare that you have been as successful at weathering these trials as you could possibly be, even if the concrete proof of that is not yet entirely visible. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): One afternoon in September, I was hiking along a familiar path in the woods. As I passed my favorite
grandmother oak, I spied a thick, 6-foot-long snake loitering on the trail in front of me. In hundreds of previous visits, I had never before seen a creature bigger than a mouse. The serpent’s tail was hidden in the brush, but its head looked more like a harmless gopher snake’s than a dangerous rattler’s. I took the opportunity to sing it three songs. It stayed for the duration, then slipped away after I finished. What a great omen! The next day, I made a tough but liberating decision to leave behind a good part of my life so as to focus more fully on a great part. With or without a snake sighting, Sagittarius, I foresee a comparable breakthrough for you sometime soon.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Every hour of your life, millions of new cells are born to replace old cells that are dying. That’s why many parts of your body are composed of an entirely different collection of cells than they were years ago. If you are 35, for example, you have replaced your skeleton three times. Congratulations! Your creativity is spectacular, as is your ability to transform yourself. Normally these instinctual talents aren’t nearly as available to you in your efforts to recreate and transform your psyche, but they are now. In the coming months, you will have extraordinary power to revamp and rejuvenate everything about yourself, not just your physical organism.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Canadian author Margaret Atwood has finished a new manuscript—it’s called Scribbler Moon, but it won’t be published as a book until the year 2114. Until then, it will be kept secret, along with the texts of many other writers who are creating work for a “Future Library.” The project’s director is conceptual artist Katie Paterson, who sees it as a response to George Orwell’s question, “How could you communicate with the future?” With this as your inspiration, Capricorn, try this exercise: Compose five messages you would you like to deliver to the person you will be in 2025.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The coming weeks will NOT be a favorable time to seek out allies you don’t even like that much or adventures that provide thrills you have felt a thousand times before. However, the near future will be an excellent time to go on a quest for your personal version of the Holy Grail, a magic carpet, the key to the kingdom or an answer to the Sphinx’s riddle. In other words, Pisces, I advise you to channel your yearning toward experiences that steep your heart with a sense of wonder. Don’t bother with anything that degrades, disappoints or desensitizes you. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

DEAR MINERVA, I am a huge fan of yours, and I think you are an absolutely fabulous, sexy, vivacious vixen. Any tips you can pass on to the ladies on how to bring out their inner fabulousness? I’ve worked in corporate America for so long that I’ve taken on a manly persona in work and in my love life. I need help getting in touch with the sexy femme I’ve been covering in power suits. —Want to Break Free
DEAR FREE, My goodness, what praise! I think cultivating a personal style starts inside. Once you know who you are, you can dress and look however you want—it comes down to confidence in yourself. A corporate environments can stifle your style; however, it can also be a great place to show you are powerful and dynamic. Your power suit doesn’t hold the power, you do. Your personal style can fit into that world and with the use of color and accessories, you can convey you are a bold, forward thinking asset to your company. Notice I used the word “style” and not “fashion.” A flattering hairstyle, tailored outfits and bold, unique accessories will not only make you look your best but make you feel your best. Don’t forget sexy femmes hold a great deal of power and women have far more freedom in the attire department. Be yourself in all you do.
