EDITOR’S NOTE HOT UNDER THE COLLAR It seems too early in the year to be worrying about this, but it appears fire season has come upon us whether we like it or not. With the big Table Rock blaze that burned 2,500 acres of the foothills June 30 came added urgency to maintaining the precious resource of our open spaces. That the fire destroyed a home is tragedy enough—that it was likely caused by fireworks a few short days before the Fourth of July was an added disaster. The frustration expressed by Boise Fire Chief Dennis Doan has been palpable in interviews. He has clearly had enough of the bizarre legal loophole that allows for the sale of fireworks that are banned from being used in the state. When people show they are clearly unable to be responsible enough not to burn whole swaths of land that voters overwhelmingly agreed to support with their tax dollars, it’s hard not to identify with his anger. Then came the Fourth of July and the obvious reality that few people were listening to Doan’s plea to keep it safe and sane. Fireworks sparked a blaze in Nampa that destroyed another home. Meanwhile, on the Boise Bench, the shows going up from residents’ backyards went on until well past midnight. As if all that wasn’t bad enough, fire in the foothills has taken on another dimension with the request by a landowner to build a private airstrip almost directly on the area that was recently burned. The city of Boise is adamant that the airstrip has no place in the foothills, but Ada County commissioners have already given it the green light. For his part, Doan’s blood pressure is probably amped even higher by the fact that the proposed landing area not only presents a fire risk but, he says, is covered by a “sham” fire protection district. It’s a battle of property rights versus safety, conservation and the very core of what the foothills mean to Boise.

OPINION FROM THE FAR MARGINS When Idaho left NICOLE LEFAVOUR It began with two mass shootings followed by large-scale desertion from the National Guard and an exodus that led to refugee camps being set up for former Idahoans in Ontario, Ore.; Lovelock, Nev.; Jackson Hole, Wyo.; and Spokane, Wash. In retrospect, then-Governor Brad Little admitted he should have seen it coming but he managed his conservatism carefully, distancing himself from U.S. President Bernie Sanders, who had artfully leveraged Congress to turn against the insurance industry, passing a universal Medicare-For-All health plan. Nationally, polls showed widespread approval of federal socialist policies including college tuition waivers and universal daycare. But this was Idaho, and Little had heard the conspiracy theories and knew trouble was brewing in the land of Monsanto, guns and potatoes. On election day, “Idago” won with 59 percent of Gem State voters choosing to leave the U.S. and 29 percent choosing to remain. A write-in campaign advocating the armed occupation of Oregon, Washington and Nevada garnered a whopping 12 percent of the vote. In the aftermath, sentiment began to spiral, and even those who had voted to exit rethought their positions. The Leave campaign’s ads promising free guns and the elimination of taxes, regulations, wolves, abortions and refugees, turned out to be politically and fundamentally impractical. Within a week of the election it became clear the cost of free guns would require a tax increase. Idago organizers Raul Labrador and Wayne Hoffman reassured voters taxes would be eliminated, “Though,” Hoffman admitted, “fees may increase.” As roads were blockaded, Idaho passports were issued and the state flag was edited to depict a man and woman holding automatic rifles. Support for the referendum briefly rallied. What followed, however, was unmitigated chaos. Fracking on the Republic of Idaho’s western border and in Teton County to the east went into overdrive, contaminating drinking water and prompting Wyoming to mobilize its National Guard, preventing Idahoans from crossing over to buy bottled water, which had run out when a trade embargo left Idaho without plastic bottles, avocados, orange juice or electricity imports. In charge of refugee and alien deportation, Secretary Labrador began house-to-house searches and instituted genetic testing, none of which produced a single Syrian immigrant, refugee or terrorist. It was later revealed that Hoffman, acting as the Republic’s military commander, press secretary and health minister, had instructed officials to search and test the houses of people with funny sounding last names. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

The racist implementation of a key Leave campaign platform plank mobilized the state’s Latino population into a disciplined militia. Led by Chobani Corporation, Twin Falls Head Start and Catholic leaders from Blackfoot, it began organizing soup kitchens and medical clinics, daycare centers, gender neutral bathrooms and safe houses for gay people statewide. By year two of the Republic, Hoffman ordered air strikes on churches with the exception of LDS temples that Labrador organized into centers for reprogramming gay people, coffee drinkers and those who took the Lord’s name in vain. Faced with devastating unemployment, Now Idaho President Little imposed home gardening, pap smear and birth control surcharges to fund a wolf extermination force that put 2,000 men, women and children to work bushwhacking the Frank Church, Sawtooth, Selway and White Cloud wilderness areas with antitank missiles, grenades and helicopters. They had to live in tents, but they got three meals a day. Casualties were intense as the $500 per-head bonus for a wolf kill prompted many of the most desperate to shoot anything that moved—including fellow exterminators. By the third year, north Idaho had broken away. Led by President Sheryl Nuxoll and Vice President Bob Nonini, the extremist enclave organized vast labor camps where they cut timber and grew marijuana to sell in Portland, Seattle and Meridian. By November of the third year, the military leader of the North Idaho Republic, Heather Scott, staged a coup, dispatching snipers from the capitol in Lewiston. In a press release, she warned the South she would kill every kitten within her borders if Little did not admit he was a gay sympathizer and relinquish control of his farms and ammunition manufacturing facilities. The war that followed was bloody, with General Lenore Barrett leading armies of Tea Party faithful on a northern march. Her forces were stopped only when Vice President Hillary Clinton showed up on horseback with an offer of amnesty and free medical care to any who laid down their arms. Medical supplies were low and, because rebel forces had breached the lower Snake River dams to free the salmon, the entire state had been relying on solar and wind power. People were desperate for new clothes, Costco, Cabela’s, Mexican food and anything to drink beside wine. So it ended, and from Lewiston to Tetonia people sang the “Star-Spangled Banner” and went forth with medical care and free college. Wars were ended, nukes were dismantled and the newly united nation became educated, innovative, healthy and strong. BOISEweekly | JULY 6–12, 2016 | 5

CITYDESK

LACK OF FUNDING AND SUPPORT SERVICES CLOSES EMERALD HOUSE, RESIDENTS EVICTED As the city of Boise continues to wrestle with the issue of homelessness, the scope of best intentions by well meaning citizens have been matched only by pessimism from critics watching on the sidelines. At the height of the Cooper Court crisis, when the city cleared out the controversial tent city growing outside the doors of the Interfaith Sanctuary homeless shelter, one homeowner offered up a house she owned to a few Boiseans who had nowhere to go. “I think I can help. I have a house,” said the homeowner, who wants to remain anonymous. In a matter of weeks, the doors of “Emerald House”—named for the street on which the house and a mix of commercial and residential buildings sit—were opened. “It’s a rather perfect neighborhood for our purposes,” said Jodi Peterson, Interfaith Sanctuary development and program director, at the time of Emerald House’s opening. Peterson worked with the homeowner to secure the residence to be a home for seven adults. Unfortunately, since the house opened in April, the situation has eroded, and the residents have been asked to leave. According to a letter sent to Boise Weekly by some of the Emerald House tenants, “The residents have been evicted and must be out by July 7. “ The owner sadly informed the residents that she would be “enabling” some residents’ bad choices if she allowed them to say. Peterson said much of what the evicted residents said was true and, while she and the owner “tried to make a bad situation a little better,” there was no funding to continue operating the house. Most important, Peterson said, there were no support services in place to help pave a path for safe, sustained housing for the Emerald House residents. The residents are part of Boise’s chronically homeless population. City ofﬁcials estimate there are about 100 citizens categorized as “chronically homeless,” meaning they have a disabling condition, have been continuously homeless for a year or more or have had at least four epi8 sodes of homelessness in three years.

NEWS WHERE THERE’S SMOKE... THERE’S AN AIRSTRIP? Ada County will mull private property vs public safety GEORGE PRENTICE Ada County officials are facing one last reconsideration for a private airstrip, planned for the very section of the Boise Foothills that saw a raging wildfire threaten one of the fastest-growing neighborhoods in Idaho. And none other than that the Boise fire chief wants Ada County commissioners to prioritize public safety over private property. Those in favor of the airstrip argue that the issue is solely about private property rights, but a June 30 wildfire that ripped across the part of the Boise Foothills where a landowner wants to set down his private plane, was a stark reminder that much more is at stake. The 2,500-acre blaze, sparked by fireworks, started near the Wild Horse subdivision and quickly ripped over Table Rock, threatening the Warm Springs Mesa and Harris Ranch subdivisions. Now, fire officials tell Boise Weekly that the Wild Horse subdivision, where pilot Dean Hilde wants to build an airstrip, has little to no fire protection of its own. Boise Fire Chief Dennis Doan said the subdivision’s so-called “Sunset Fire Protection District” has no equipment, no resources and is barely worth the paper it’s written on. “It’s a sham, a total sham,” said Doan. “The Ada County commissioners may know that the Sunset Fire District exists but it has zero resources. And I’m going to tell them that on July 27.” That’s the day Ada County commissioners will gavel in a special hearing to consider an appeal to the county planning and zoning commission’s earlier approval of the airstrip. Environmentalists said they’re adamantly opposed to the airstrip because it—literally—flies in the face of foothills protection, particularly when it comes to wildlife. Boise City Hall has also expressed opposition. “Virtually every city department that would be impacted oppose [the airstrip] as unsafe or significantly out of step with the values under which we

manage the foothills,” said Mayor Dave Bieter. Doan said his department’s concern with fire protection—or lack thereof—in the Wild Horse subdivision dates back to his predecessor, former BFD Chief Renn Ross, who urged the subdivision’s original developers to widen roads to accommodate fire engines, build a separate entrance and exit to the subdivision, and, most important, ensure adequate water supplies for firefighting. “But the Wild Horse developers said ‘No, no and no,’” said Doan, who was a fire station commander at the time the subdivision was developed. “Ada County still approved the Wild Horse subdivision. That’s certainly their prerogative because it’s just outside the city limits.” On Nov. 4, 2007, then-Chief Ross’ fears came true when wildfire broke out in Wild Horse. “And we had all the problems that we were afraid of: We had to shuttle water in and the roads weren’t wide enough,” said Doan. Wild Horse is outside the city limits, so the fire department sent the subdivision a bill for $15,000 for saving their homes. “And guess what? They refused to pay us,” said Doan, who had become chief by the time of Wild Horse’s refusal to pay the bill.“Quite frankly, I felt bad for new homeowners who came in to that subdivision, built homes and couldn’t get insurance without fire protection. So, I met with them and said we could work out a deal if they would at least put in a water supply for firefighting and install sprinklers in their homes. But they said, ‘No’ again. We finally said we couldn’t provide them fire protection with Boise footing the bill.” Undeterred, Wild Horse homeowners still chose not to contract with any outside fire agency and, instead, elected to create the Sunset Fire Protection District, which Ada County commissioners adopted in November 2010.

“But it’s a sham,” Doan repeated. “Ada County commissioners need to know that it’s a sham. And the Boise Fire Department has go to on record to say, ‘We can’t respond if there’s a fire.’ Time after time, they said, ‘No, no and no.’ But then they say, ‘Help me, help me, help me.’ It’s not fair and it’s not right.”

BEING NEIGHBORLY Just before Ada County P&Z commissioners gave their approval to the airstrip at a May 5 public hearing, they listened to an impressive presentation supporting the proposal from Dean Hilde and plenty of his friends, fellow pilots and family members. Public testimony was 2-1 in favor of the airstrip at the hearing. “I just want to land my airplane in my horse pasture,” said Hilde, the first of two dozen speakers in favor of the airstrip. “I’m not building an airport; no pavement, lights or control tower.” Hilde argued that his own airstrip would reduce significant time spent driving his vehicle to the Boise Airport. A check of Google maps estimates a car ride between his property and the Boise Airport to be about 30 minutes. When asked about his airstrip’s impact to wildlife, Hilde said he understood “elk and deer may become an issue at times,” but quickly added, “wildlife is always welcome on my property.” Hilde’s supporters spent the better part of the evening telling P&Z commissioners the airstrip was a good thing: “I don’t think it poses a threat to wildlife,” said Stefon Miroff. “The airstrip would be an added benefit to the neighborhood,” said Doug Bates. 8 “The airstrip will be helpful to retain pilots in the area,” said James Howard.

“The airstrip will help preserve the land and limit homebuilding,” said Tyley Nelson. “I’m not aware of any negative comments,” said Mike Stock, president of the homeowners association. “I don’t actually hear the plane land in our backyard,” said Hilde’s wife, Christy. A few who testified with nice things to say about the airstrip also directed some nasty comments toward Boise City Hall. For example, homeowner/developer Gary Campbell told P&Z commissioners that Boise city officials “had their facts wrong” and “do not have merit.” Dean Briggs, president and CEO of the engineering company working on the proposed airstrip, said a city planner had “lied by not giving any notice” of an April 19 Boise City Council meeting that included discussion of the proposed airstrip. But every major media outlet in Boise picked up on the story after the meeting, making controversy around the airstrip Boise’s most buzzed-about news story for the next two weeks.

Cooper Court, a tent city of chronically homeless, ﬁrst appeared in Boise in the summer of 2015.

had lived in Cooper Court, which began emerging in the summer of 6 2015 and continued to grow in size until Dec. 4, 2015, when city officials said open fires and increased criminal activity made the encampment a danger to the community. That night, Cooper Court residents were told to vacate their tents, processed into a one-night temporary shelter and ordered to find alternative arrangements at a permanent shelter. “That seems like a dream now,” JoJo, one of the Cooper Court residents, said shortly after moving into Emerald House. “No, it was a bad dream.” BW visited Emerald House in April and, while residents said things “weren’t perfect,” they said they had signed agreements with special “opt-in behavioral clauses” requiring them to treat themselves and each other with respect. But trouble soon followed. “The rules kept changing based on what was happening in the house,” said Peterson. “The truth is, if someone could have made sure it was a clean and safe house at the beginning, it might have had a better chance. Quite frankly, that’s not how it started. It started as a shelter, in hopes that some solutions could be found down the road.” Peterson said she has since learned that solutions, or at least a plan for solutions, need to be in place for such a shelter before the doors even open. “We made the mistake of thinking that if you give free shelter, then the residents would do everything they could to protect that shelter,” said Peterson. “But they didn’t have services. Also, there was no funding for management.” Peterson said she and her colleagues turned to the city of Boise in hopes of folding Emerald House into one of the city’s sanctioned low-income sites, to be set aside for chronically homeless. “But there are very specific Fair Housing requirements that would have required us to move everyone out of Emerald House and start from scratch,” Peterson said. And, at least for the foreseeable future, Boise has about eight more chronically homeless people back on its streets. —George Prentice 8 | JULY 6–12, 2016 | BOISEweekly

The 2,500-acre Table Rock ﬁre, sparked in the Wild Horse subdivision, ripped down the Boise Foothills toward the Warm Springs Mesa and Harris Ranch subdivisions.

BIG NEWS Criticizing what he called the “audacity” of the proposal, Boise Mayor Dave Bieter said he couldn’t support any recommendation to develop an airstrip in the foothills. Councilwoman Maryanne Jordan said, “I can’t think of a more dangerous or disruptive use of the foothills.” Councilman TJ Thomson, who is a current candidate for Ada County commissioner, said, “I’m open to a lot of ideas, but never do I recall this much opposition from our departments.” The airstrip controversy took a bizarre turn in late April, when BW learned Hilde had been landing his plane in the foothills without anyone’s permission. “We informed him that he would need to apply for a permit,” said Ada County Public Information Officer Kate McGwire. “Once he was told that he had to get that permit, he stopped using the land as an airstrip.” Within the next two weeks, Hilde launched a mini-charm offensive, granting exclusive interviews to Boise television stations, insisting the Boise City Council “really didn’t give me a fair shot” and claimimng city staff was “uninformed.” Bieter himself reached out to Hilde, via email, reminding him that “your agent was aware” of the item being discussed April 19 before the City Council. Ultimately, the Ada County Planning and Zoning Commission, on May 6, gave Hilde the news he was waiting for: the airstrip was a fine idea for his private foothills property. Officials at Boise City Hall were incredulous and quickly indicated that they would file an appeal. “This is completely out of touch with our community,” said Thomson. “I think Ada County needs to be aware of the overwhelming citizen support of the most recent foothills Levy,” said Jordan. The November 2015 passage of the Boise

Open Space Levy was a stunner, said election officials, especially in the turnout of voters. “I must tell you, I still can’t totally wrap my head around it,” Ada County Chief Deputy Clerk Phil McGrane said at the time. “The turnout in Ada County was remarkable. I can’t think of anything quite like this for a city election and I’ve been here since 2005.” In Boise, some key districts reported turnouts of more than 40 percent of registered voters and nearly every precinct recorded overwhelming support to collect $10 million over two years to help preserve open space around the Boise Foothills. Such a significant statement from voters should be a compelling reason to reject a proposed airstrip in the foothills, say environmental activitists.

THE ENVIRONMENTAL/ WILDLIFE DEBATE “The Open Space Levy and opposition to this proposed airstrip? That’s where the dots connect for Conservation Voters for Idaho,” said CVI Executive Director Courtney Washburn. Washburn spends her days reading political tea leaves, and her organization has had tangible success in providing its political muscle and financial backing to candidates and issues across Idaho. “Our main concerns are not only the millions of invested taxpayer dollars, but the constant, overwhelming support to protect the Boise Foothills,” she said. “The public has wildlife concerns and certainly fire concerns, but I really think the overarching issue for our organization is a public trust of protecting space for future generations.” John Caywood, veteran of the Bureau of Reclamation and the U.S. Forest Service and current vice president of the Ada County Fish and Game League, looked at a map of the Boise Foothills,

circled the area where the private airstrip is being proposed and shook his head. “It’s right next to a Wildlife Management Area where millions of dollars have been invested since the 1940s. It’s a very special area. That’s where big game come from as far away as the Sawtooth Valley in the winter,” said Caywood. “What concerns me is that this airstrip may be the pimple on a much bigger issue. What happens when the next person wants to do something different in the foothills? We need to ask ourselves, ‘What’s really OK?’ Seriously. Ada County really thinks this is OK when so many voters have sent a message to do everything we can to protect the foothills?” Angela Rossmann, a 30-year homeowner in the Boise Heights neighborhood, said the best thing Ada County commissioners could do is read their own annual report. “Here it is,” she said, pointing to the county’s most recent report, published in October 2015. “It talks about how Ada County is nationally recognized for quality of life and natural surroundings. Isn’t it their responsibility to ensure that?” Caywood and Rossmann filed their own appeal, hoping to convince Ada County commissioners to overturn approval for the airstrip. In their appeal, Caywood and Rossmann wrote Ada County P&Z commissioners “misinterpreted land use policy in the underestimation of wildfires potential destruction.” That, said Doan, comes back to his strongest argument. “It’s critical that they’re reminded of the history of fire and the Wild Horse subdivision,” he said. Another page of that history was burned into Doan’s memory June 30, when wildfire once more threatened the Wild Horse subdivision and everything around it. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Heartshaped rocks, specifically, often wound in cordage and rendered against contextless space: sitting on a table, inexplicably hanging in front of a landscape, etc. We’ll be honest, Braldt Bralds’ work captivated us (or cativated us) from the moment we saw it. His is a style as expert as its subject matter is off-kilter; a bit like a mad master whose skills afford him the confidence to explore whatever his imagination conjures (seriously, search Google for his rabbit-headed milk cow). Don’t miss a rare opportunity to experience this truly original artists’ worldview with a special First Thursday show at Gallery 601 (211 N. 10th St.). There really is no Braldternative.

Laura Yager’s “happy art.”

Laura Yager’s art doesn’t bring to mind the descriptor “selftaught.” Her vivid, stylized renderings composed of overlapping paper shapes exude a brilliant pop art sensibility. Featured on HGTV and the cover of Boise Weekly, Yager’s work explodes with life and exuberance—exemplifying her mission to create work that, as she writes on her rawartists.org page, “lifts up, lightens and refreshes.” Yager calls it her “happy” art. “I mean, seriously, who doesn’t enjoy viewing the face of a deliriously happy dog greeting someone he loves?” she wrote. From kangaroos to corgies, lions and leopards, dogs, cats and tigers, Yager will display her work, talk about her process and exhibit her technique with a First Thursday appearance at Idaho Blueprint and Supply Co. (619 W. Main St.). If you don’t come away from a viewing of her work feeling a teensy bit better about life, the world and everything, you might have a paper cut on your soul.

Makers be making.

A trailhead, whether at the start of a path leading up a hill or through a wooded area, is the launching point of an adventure. Trailhead (500 S. Eighth St.) in downtown Boise is that, too. It’s a place for people looking to move into a new metier. “Trailhead is a coworking space and startup hub aimed at creating a resource and connecting entrepreneurs in Boise and Idaho,” said Trailhead Operations Assistant Matthew Gilkerson. Along with connecting entrepreneurs with each other, organizers want Trailhead to be a place where tech-savvy makers can connect with the public, which is the goal of the upcoming interactive Maker Showcase on First Thursday, 5-9 p.m., co-sponsored by the Boise State University Innovation Lab, the Boise Public Library and Trailhead. Nearly 20 presenters will discuss and display a variety of ideas on the concept of Virtual Reality and Biomimicry, with everything from VR glasses, to anthotypes (prints made with plant matter), to DNA origami, to biological 3-D printers. The showcase isn’t simply for makers to show off, though. Gilkerson said the interactive, family friendly event will be an opportunity to meet an innovative group of “DIY-ers and creative tinkerers” and to spark inspiration. “We want to help in anyway we can to foster this growing and large community [of makers] to thrive in Boise,” he said.

GROOVE WITH PROJECT FLUX AT JUMP

ALEXANDRA GRANT/KEANU REEVES: SHADOWS

EILEN JEWELL IN CONCERT

Project Flux is the Boise dance community’s radical element. Since time immemorial, music has been the root of dancers’ movements on stage. Project Flux pulled that root right out of the ground, setting its performances to spoken word arrangements, atonal tracks and, most recently, offering audiences a choice of soundscapes while watching contemporary dance newcomers and seasoned pros make magic on stage. Pull up your sweats and gym socks and join Project Flux choreographer Lydia Sakolsky-Basquill and company members for Groove with Project Flux beginning Wednesday, July 6, at JUMP. There, learn agility, balance and ﬂexibility using the sensation-based improvisational techniques that have made Project Flux shows and Sakolsky-Basquill both popular and critically successful. Classes are for dancers age 13 and older. 6 p.m. $15. Jack’s Urban Meeting Place, 1000 W. Myrtle St., 208-639-6610, projectﬂux.com.

We swear on all things holy we are not making this up. A premier Sun Valley-area gallery will host a collection of photographs featuring the shadow of Keanu Reeves. You read that correctly: Pictures of Keanu Reeves’ shadow. The 25 images in Shadows caused a semisensation when they were unveiled in Los Angeles in February. “No one can move the way [Keanu] can,” artist Alexandra Grant told the Los Angeles Times. “I knew that if I moved the camera as we danced together, we could create these wonderful optical illusions.” Grant said after photographing Reeves, she then manipulated the photos to invert black for white, making the shadow itself the source of light. As an added bonus, each of the images is accompanied by a poetic text, written by Reeves. Mind blown. Opening reception Thursday, July 7. Exhibit runs through Saturday, Aug. 6. FREE. Ochi Gallery, 119 Lewis St., Ketchum, 208-7268746, ochigallery.com.

Last year, residents of Idaho City began rebuilding after several of the city’s iconic boardwalk businesses were destroyed by a ﬁre. Also last year, Idaho native Eilen Jewell released her ﬁfth studio album, Sundown Over Ghost Town (Signature Sounds). These two events have more in common than you might think. In a 2015 interview, Jewell explained how though she hadn’t planned it, Sundown became an album about her home state. “Everything I was writing seemed to be about—if not Idaho, then somewhere out West here—but mostly Idaho. That’s really where my thoughts have been for the past... well, forever, really,” she said. Jewell will further explore her connection to Idaho, particularly Idaho City, with a concert at the Idaho City Amphitheater featuring opening act and fellow Idaho native Andrew Sheppard. 6 p.m., $15, Idaho City Amphitheater on Highway 21, eilenjewell.com, brownpapertickets.com/event/256457.

UNDERGROUND BOOKWORMS: MARILYNNE ROBINSON It’s a bit of a misnomer to call Idaho-born author Marilynne Robinson “underground.” The 72-year-old Sandpoint native has received the Pulitzer Prize for fiction, the Hemingway Foundation/ PEN Award, was twice awarded the National Book Critics Circle Award for Fiction, earned the National Humanities Medal and, in April, was named one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People. Beyond that, Robinson was interviewed by President Barack Obama in 2015, when the leader of the free world said Pastor John Ames—from her 2004 Pulitzer-winning novel Gilead—is “one of my favorite characters in fiction.” Join her for a discussion of Gilead at the Ada Community Library Victory Branch.

EDMOND DANTES, JULY 6 “Hanging Memories,” released by local band Edmond Dantes in 2015, opens with ambient sounds that at ﬁrst evoke ocean waves. As they build, the waves resolve into the rushing wheels of a train, speeding into a pulsing rhythm of synth and electric guitar. The lyrics, written and performed by Andrew Stensaas and Ryan Peck, break in with a dreamy declaration: “I’m going to my home town.” As an ambient tapestry, the Edmond Dantes’ oeuvre—which includes the soundtrack to indie ﬁlm Almosting It—is polished, poppy and inventive. Stensaas and Peck clearly know what they’re doing, which explains why they are leaders of the Boise Rock School, which harnesses kids’ musical passion and arms them with the skills to take their artform higher. Together, they’re making sure the City of Trees is well supplied with future generations of rock stars. —Zach Hagadone With Boise Rock School, 5 p.m., FREE.

SPACE CAR, JULY 9, SPACEBAR It’s a little like Mystery Science Theater meets David Bowie meets Beastie Boys meets Flight of the Conchords. If that sounds bizarre, it’s because Space Car is. Described on its bandcamp.com page as “a fast ﬁring, tone driven adventure,” Space Car was conceived by Boise locals Ian Jones and Nicholas Coutts in 2011. Together with Grant Collet—a standup who should be well known to anyone who has attended Boise’s Funniest Person—the band layers quirky, clever writing on lo-ﬁ guitar work, then shoots the package into the stratosphere with crackpot sound effects and space sounds. Prepping to drop its second album, Doing It For the Exposure (Insubordinate Records, due out in 2016), Space Car is hosting a CD release party at Spacebar. In the meantime, check out its self-titled, self-released 2013 album, which weaves a storyline through alternating tracks of chatter from an eponymous radio show beamed from a desolate moon or satellite. About halfway through the album is a six-second track titled “Impressed.” Yes. We are. —Zach Hagadone 8 p.m., FREE. Spacebar, 200 N. Capitol Blvd., 208-9180597, spacebararcade.com.

ARTS & CULTURE PARTY (ALMOST) EVERY DAY

Simply “loverly.”

IDAHO SHAKESPEARE FESTIVAL: MY FAIR LADY FILLS THE NIGHT WITH MUSIC It’s always tempting to delve into the deeper meaning of a play, unveiling the social commentary and morality below the surface. The classic musical My Fair Lady, set in 20th century London, is about a professor who gives diction lessons to a young Cockney woman who sells ﬂowers. The goal is to make her sound more like a “lady.” Volumes have been written about its take on class struggle and gender inequality but when it comes down to it, My Fair Lady— particularly Idaho Shakespeare Festival’s production—is at its core, an immensely enjoyable musical ﬁlled with wonderful songs and inarguably talented performers. Supported by a seasoned cast and veteran director Victoria Bussert, the production relies heavily on the musical skill of the cast and supporting live orchestra. With no fewer than 20 songs, My Fair Lady is almost a concert with a storyline and, while ISF’s simple set served as more of a backdrop than a key piece of the story, it effectively enhanced the stand-out performances of Tom Ford as Professor Henry Higgins and Jillian Kates as Eliza Doolittle. The leads embraced their characters’ idiosyncrasies, MY FAIR LADY from the profesruns through Friday, Aug. sor’s arrogance 26. Idaho Shakespeare Festo Eliza’s plucky tival, 5657 E. Warm Springs yet vulnerable Ave., 208-336-9221, nature. idahoshakespeare.org. M.A. Taylor, another recognizable face to regular ISF audiences, also offers a stellar performance. As Eliza’s father, Alfred P. Doolittle, he is not only comic relief but steals every scene he’s in. Also deserving of praise are the seven members of the orchestra who, though unseen, play one of the most important roles in the musical. It’s hard to even quantify what a difference live music makes to a production like this. Any fan of musicals, especially the classics, should see ISF’s My Fair Lady—it’s full of moments that are simply loverly. —Deanna Darr 22 | JULY 6–12, 2016 | BOISEweekly

ever attempted. “Everyone who read the book hated the movie,” says De Palma in hushed tones as scenes of the flop flash behind him. “I was leveled by the response. It was a complete catastrophe.” It was. Several bestselling books and college courses have since pointed to De Palma’s Bonfire as a prime example of excess, miscasting, fiscal mismanagement and overall hubris. To this day, Bonfire is considered by many to be De Palma’s professional undoing. Once upon a time, De Palma was an integral part of Hollywood’s new elite, standing alongside Martin Scorsese, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Francis Ford Coppola. While those titans emerged as the men who changed the movies, De Palma was dismissed after back-to-back flops Casualties of War in 1989 and Bonfire in 1990. He directed box office success with Mission: Impossible in 2000 but, for the most part, his nine films since 1990 are readily forgotten. The good news is that De Palma relives some of the director’s glory days. There is good, bad and ugly in the mix, but with De Palma, we wouldn’t have it any other way.

CITIZEN SCOTT ANDERSON GEORGE PRENTICE

Zions CEO on why investing in the arts is money in the bank GEORGE PRENTICE

If Scott Anderson wasn’t a major moneychanger, he could easily be confused for a community advocate at a small nonprofit. The Deseret News even wrote about how the CEO and president of Zions Bank, has “amassed a reputation that hovers far more toward George Bailey than J.P. Morgan.” Anderson is at the top of a company with more than 2,300 employees and $19 billion in assets. He is formidable and counts among his friends Oscar winners Robert Redford and Geena Davis, but nonprofit organizations in Utah and Idaho continually point to Anderson’s passion for the arts. So it was no surprise when Boise Weekly sat down with Anderson, it was on the occasion of Zions Bank’s third annual showcase of Idaho artists. We talked about the arts, smart investing and why he doesn’t like being called the “unofficial governor of Utah.” Where does your passion for the arts stem from? My parents cherished the arts, and I had a mother who wanted all her children to be artists. Unfortunately, I had no talent.

Can you speak to how the arts remain the unheralded engine that makes an economy thrive? In commercial real estate, there’s a factor called the cap rate [capitalization rate]. It measures how valuable an investment in real estate may be in any particular city. And do you know who has the best cap rates? Cities that have a 52-week symphony and an NBA franchise. That might be swell for Salt Lake City [home of the Utah Jazz]. Unfortunately, Boise isn’t going to get an NBA team anytime soon. What that really tells is that people want to do something after they finish their work. That’s what the arts provide.

It’s one thing for a CEO to show up for a ribbon cutting or balloon launch for an art reception, but you have made some significant personal and professional commitments to the arts.

The so-called Papa Doble, which the author probably badgered the bartender into making at El Floridita Bar in Havana sometime in the 1930s or ’40s, consists of 2 oz. light rum, .75 oz. fresh lime juice, .5 oz. fresh grapefruit juice, 1 tsp. sugar, and 1 tsp. maraschino liqueur shaken and strained into a chilled cocktail glass. Hemingway described the drink as having “no taste of alcohol and felt, as you drank them, the way downhill glacier skiing feels running through powder snow.” Papa claimed to have downed 16 of them in one sitting—but he also claimed to have cured his erectile dysfunction by going to church. No matter, the Papa Doble—or Hemingway Daiquiri or Hemingway Special or El Floridita No. 4, depending on who you ask—is tailormade for sipping in the summer heat. Honoring both the seasonal appropriateness and Idaho’s connection to Hemingway (he committed suicide at his Ketchum home on July 2, 1961) a Boise Weekly tasting panel shook up a flotilla of the icy tipple to see exactly what the iconic literary lush had in his glass.

BACARDI SUPERIOR—$14.95 As noted, the daiquiri was invented by a mining engineer, Jennings S. Cox, who managed a nickel mine in the Sierra Maestra region of Cuba. History buffs know the Sierra Maestras as the base of the Cuban revolution, where Fidel Castro and Che Guevara holed up to battle the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista in the 1950s. Prior to the revolution, Bacardi was the island’s premier rum, and, according to The School of Sophisticated Drinking: An Intoxicating History of Seven Spirits (Greystone Books, 2015), workers at Cox’s mine were rationed a gallon of Bacardi Carta Blanca Superior per month. As such, it was with Bacardi Superior that daiquiris were primarily mixed from Cox’s time to Hemingway’s. In the years following the revolution, Bacardi was booted from Cuba, to be replaced by Havana Club, which is still extremely hard to get due to longtime trade restrictions. In an effort to ensure authenticity, the first daiquiris we mixed were with Bacardi Superior. It BOISE WEEKLY.COM

has a clean aftertaste, allowing the tartness of the grapefruit to come through. Though slightly acidic and definitely characterized by an alcohol taste, the drink is mellowed by the Maraska Maraschino Cherry Liqueur ($22.95). Good call, Hem. The drink is an elegant shade of milky pink and, despite all manner of sickly sweet additives that infested it in the 1970s and ’80s, it is anything but syrupy. Using Hemingway’s glacial skiing comparison as a yardstick, Superior does well. It has a bizarre ability to warm as it cools. Bad news: it goes down far, far too quickly.

them by the shirt collars and dragged them down the dock to be press-ganged into service. This rum is not to be trifled with, and probably isn’t a good pick for a daiquiri—especially if our goal was to sip a drink that transported us to the alpine heights of an Austrian glacier. Rather, a Wray and Nephew daiquiri nearly transported us to falling asleep in our deck chairs, only to wake up with a brutal sunburn and a worse headache.

BOTTOM’S UP

Hemingway was as drunk as he was genius. Still, you have to hand it to him when it comes BACARDI MAESTRO DE RON—$24.95 to rum drinks. We’ll admit to a certain trepidation toward daiquiris. Though the cocktail was This higher-shelf offering from Bacardi does not disappoint. Double-aged in white oak casks, it all the rage in the ’20s—so much so that daiquiri bars popped up all over New York—and no less has a more rounded mouth feel and is not nearly than President John F. Kennedy was a well known as hot as the Superior. Sipped neat, the Maestro daiquiri devotee, it suffered grievous harm in the de Ron, so named for the “master blenders” who mid- to late-20th century as it was sweetened have overseen Bacardi’s trade secrets since 1862, presents a cinnamon tone that, when mixed with beyond all reason. Using Papa’s recipe, however, the daiquiri offers a tart, satisfying experience. Maraska, evokes the flavor of a tart cherry pie. We’re going to stick with tradition and stand As a daiquiri, Maestro builds on all the characby Bacardi Superior. It’s hotter than the Maestro, teristics of its little brother, the Superior, making but at $15 for a fifth, it’s a steal. As for the Maefor a more mature drinking experience. But, stro, it’s smooth, sophisticated and a fine daiquiri sometimes, maturity isn’t everything. base. However, it’s also a little featureless in the cocktail. Better to sip it on the rocks with a squirt WRAY AND NEPHEW OVERPROOF of fresh lime in order to appreciate its subtlety.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Events in the coming week may trick your mind and tweak your heart. They might mess with your messiah complex and wreak havoc on your habits. But I bet they will also energize your muses and add melodic magic to your mysteries. They will slow you down in such a way as to speed up your evolution, and spin you in circles with such lyrical grace that you may become delightfully clear-headed. Will you howl and moan? Probably, but more likely out of poignant joy, not from angst and anguish. Might you be knocked off course? Perhaps, but by a good influence, not a bad one.

yourself with kindness. Got all that, Taurus? It’s an excellent place to start as you formulate your strategy for the second half of 2016.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In the book A Survival Guide to the Stress of Organizational Change, the authors tell you how to raise your stress levels. Assume that others are responsible for lowering your stress levels, they say. Resolve not to change anything about yourself. Hold on to everything in your life that’s expendable. Fear the future. Get embroiled in trivial battles. Try to win new games as you play by old rules. Luckily, the authors also offer suggestions on how to reduce your stress. Get good sleep, they advise. Exercise regularly. Don’t drink too much caffeine. Feel lots of gratitude. Clearly define a few strong personal goals, and let go of lesser wishes. Practice forgiveness and optimism. Talk to

CANCER (June 21-July 22): As I gaze into my crystal ball and invoke a vision of your near future, I find you communing with elemental energies that are almost beyond your power to control. But I’m not worried, because I also see that the spirit of fun is keeping you safe and protected. Your playful strength is fully unfurled, ensuring that love always trumps chaos. This is a dream come true: You have a joyous confidence as you explore and experiment with the Great Unknown, trusting in your fluidic intuition to guide you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Normally I’m skeptical about miraculous elixirs and sudden cures and stupendous breakthroughs. I avoid fantasizing about a “silver bullet” that can simply and rapidly repair an entrenched problem. But I’m setting aside my caution as I evaluate your prospects for the coming months. While I don’t believe that a sweeping transformation is guaranteed, I suspect it’s far more likely than usual. I suggest you open your mind to it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “You can only go halfway into the darkest forest,” says a Chinese proverb. “Then you are coming out

28 | JULY 6–12, 2016 | BOISEweekly

the other side.” You will soon reach that midpoint, Leo. You may not recognize how far you have already come, so it’s a good thing I’m here to give you a heads-up. Keep the faith! Now here’s another clue: As you have wandered through the dark forest, you’ve been learning practical lessons that will come in handy during the phase of your journey that will begin after your birthday. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): My devoted contingent of private detectives, intelligence agents, and psychic sleuths is constantly wandering the globe gathering data for me to use in creating your horoscopes. In recent days, they have reported that many of you Virgos are seeking expansive visions and mulling long-term decisions. Your tribe seems unusually relaxed about the future, and is eager to be emancipated from shrunken possibilities. Crucial in this wonderful development has been an inclination to stop obsessing on small details and avoid being distracted by transitory concerns. Hallelujah! Keep up the good work. Think BIG! BIGGER! BIGGEST! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): After years of painstaking research, the psychic surgeons at the Beauty and Truth Lab have finally perfected the art and science of Zodiac Makeovers. Using a patented technique known as Mythic Gene

Engineering, they are able to transplant the planets of your horoscope into different signs and astrological houses from the ones you were born with. Let’s say your natal Jupiter suffers from an uncongenial aspect with your Moon. The psychic surgeons cut and splice according to your specifications, enabling you to be re-coded with the destiny you desire. Unfortunately, the cost of this pioneering technology is still prohibitive for most people. But here’s the good news, Libra: In the coming months, you will have an unprecedented power to reconfigure your life’s path using other, less expensive, purely natural means. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In high school I was a good athlete with a promising future as a baseball player. But my aspirations were aborted in sophomore year when the coach banished me from the team. My haircut and wardrobe were too weird, he said. I may have been a skillful shortstop, but my edgy politics made him nervous and mad. At the time I was devastated by his expulsion. Playing baseball was my passion. But in retrospect I was grateful. The coach effectively ended my career as a jock, steering me toward my true callings: poetry and music and astrology. I invite you to identify a comparable twist in your own destiny, Scorpio. What unexpected blessings came your way through a seeming adversary? The time is

ripe to lift those blessings to the next level.

in your life who move you and feed you and transform you the best.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Do you remember that turning point when you came to a fork in the road of your destiny at a moment when your personal power wasn’t strong? And do you recall how you couldn’t muster the potency to make the most courageous choice, but instead headed in the direction that seemed easier? Well, here’s some intriguing news: Your journey has delivered you, via a convoluted route, to a place not too far from that original fork in the road. It’s possible you could return there and revisit the options—which are now more mature and meaningful—with greater authority. Trust your exuberance.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): After an Illinois man’s wife whacked him in the neck with a hatchet, he didn’t hold a grudge. Just the opposite. Speaking from a hospital room while recovering from his life-threatening wound, Thomas Deas testified that he still loved his attacker, and hoped they could reconcile. Is this admirable or pathetic? I’ll go with pathetic. Forgiving one’s allies and loved ones for their mistakes is wise, but allowing and enabling their maliciousness and abuse should be taboo. Keep that standard in mind during the coming weeks, Aquarius. People close to you may engage in behavior that lacks full integrity. Be compassionate but tough-minded in your response.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I love writing horoscopes for you. Your interest in my insights spurs my creativity and makes me smarter. As I search for the inspiration you need next, I have to continually reinvent my approach to finding the truth. The theories I had about your destiny last month may not be applicable this month. My devotion to following your ever-shifting story keeps me enjoyably off-balance, propelling me free of habit and predictability. I’m grateful for your influence on me! Now I suggest that you compose a few thank-you notes similar to the one I’ve written here. Address them to the people

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Can water run uphill? Not usually. But there’s an eccentric magic circulating in your vicinity, and it could generate phenomena that are comparable to water running uphill. I wouldn’t be surprised, either, to see the equivalent of stars coming out in the daytime. Or a mountain moving out of your way. Or the trees whispering an oracle exactly when you need it. Be alert for anomalous blessings, Pisces. They may be so different from what you think is possible that they could be hard to recognize.

MINERVA’S BREAKDOWN

CHILL FACTOR FROZEN YOGURT MAKER

$GYLFH IRU WKRVH RQ WKH YHUJH

DEAR MINERVA, My roommate always tries to hook up with me when she’s drunk. It is getting weird and I feel really uncomfortable the next morning. She always tries to seduce me and even climbs in my bed sometimes in the middle of the night. —HELP!

DEAR HELP!, Buy a lock for your door, immediately! While there is no excuse for this behavior—that is, if you have drawn a clear boundary that she continues crossing—this question saddens me very much. I can’t help but feel that she must be very lonely and, when extreme loneliness meets too much alcohol, it is easy to ﬁnd oneself making propositions that, in a haze, seem like a good idea. Shame is not a helpful tool. Though things are weird now because of her advances, if you sit her down and draw some clear boundaries about personal space, her actions when she’s drunk and how you are not interested in her romantically, she will try to make changes. If you have already done this and the situation has not improved, then maybe you shouldn’t live together. If you are interested in her in that way, don’t succumb to her advances while she is under the inﬂuence. She can’t make those kinds of judgment calls while drunk and neither of you want to regret decisions made while intoxicated. This is tough, but you have to draw the line somewhere. Remember, “It ain’t what you do. It’s the way that you do it.” SUBMIT questions to Minerva’s Breakdown at bit.ly/MinervasBreakdown or mail them to Boise Weekly, 523 Broad St., Boise, ID 83702. All submissions remain anonymous.

Now, this is something we were anxious to get our hands on. It’s called the Chill Factor Frozen Yogurt Maker and, while the concept is rather basic, the ingenuity is impressive. The simple construction includes a silicone cup with waterfilled walls. Pop the cup into the freezer for a few hours and, when it’s ready, pour in some yogurt or cream. Top it off with fruit, granola, crumbled cookies, chocolate chips, honey or whatever flavoring you like and start $22, amazon.com/chillfactor, squeezing. Before you know thechillfactor.comcookbooks it, you’ll have soft-serve froyo and, in a couple of minutes, you’ll have a treat with the consistency of ice-cream. It’s pretty healthy and it’s definitely delicious. While the kids will enjoy making their own frozen dessert, we’re pretty sure the adults will love it, too. You squeeze, I squeeze, we all squeeze for ice cream (and froyo). —George Prentice
