EDITOR’S NOTE COVER ART AUCTION: 15 YEARS AND COUNTING Fifteen years ago, Boise Weekly made a decision that has set it apart from most—if not all—alternative weekly newspapers in the country. Rather than devote the front cover to some splashy image illustrating the top story of the week, BW decided to use that space to highlight work by local artists. It was, and remains, a bold move. Over the years, our colleagues in the alt weekly world have frequently remarked on the policy, wondering how we can attract readers to our print edition without giving them an eye-catching idea of what’s inside. To that, we respond, the art itself is eye-catching and adds yet another element of content to the paper. What’s more, the cover art concept serves a community function. Not only do local artists get exposure for their work week after week, but they go home with a portion of proceeds from the sale of their original pieces at our annual Cover Art Auction, which—in case you haven’t been paying attention for the past few weeks—is going down Wednesday, Oct. 19 at Jack’s Urban Meeting Place (see Picks, Page 7). Doors open at 5 p.m. and the auction gets under way at 6 p.m. with hand-picked original works by some of the finest artists in our fair city (for a full catalog of works on the block, see Page 13). For $20, attendees will enjoy appetizers and drinks, plus the opportunity to own some of the art that has graced our front page over the past 12 months. Just to prove how much we truly do value our artistic community, in addition to funneling a chunk of sales revenue directly to the individual creators, we also set aside some of the auction cash for our Boise Weekly Cover Art Auction Grant program, which funds arts projects vetted by a panel of local creative luminaries. We take home a piece of the earnings to support our journalistic mission but, ultimately, the Cover Art Auction—like our weekly art covers—are all about celebrating the phenomenal talent that lives and works in the City of Trees. We invite you to join us at this annual event to bid, eat, drink, mingle and be merry with some of the people we think make Boise the artsy haven it is. —Zach Hagadone

TRUMPED: HOW CRAPO AND STURGILL CAN’T GET FAR ENOUGH AWAY FROM THE DONALD ‘A seething undercurrent of disaffection’ GEORGE PRENTICE Idaho Botanical Garden’s Outlaw Field concert series recently finished its ninth season.

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

RYAN JOH NSON

Democrat Jerry Sturgill says his political playbook is nuanced, detailing what he calls a path to victory over incumbent Republican Sen. Mike Crapo. But the No. 1—and No. 2 and No. 3— game-changer is as glaring as a bad comb over. “It’s Trump. It’s Trump. It’s Trump,” said Sturgill. “It’s obvious that Trump won’t play well in Idaho, especially toward the Mormon vote.” Both Crapo, 65, and Sturgill, 63, are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. When Crapo was first elected, he became the first Mormon to represent Idaho in the U.S. Senate. He’s now running for his fourth term and, while faith is not a primary factor in the Crapo/ Sturgill contest, morality casts a long shadow. Donald Trump was never Crapo’s choice to be the next U.S. president. “I liked Sen. Marco Rubio, Sen. Ted Cruz, Ben Carson,” Crapo told Boise Weekly, beginning a long list of would-be candidates who Donald Trump kicked to the curb through a bruising primary season. “One can speculate on whether a different nominee would be in a better position to beat Clinton, but this is the election we have,” he said. Crapo’s tepid endorsement of The Donald was upended Oct. 7 when a 2005 recording captured Trump claiming to have sex with a married woman, saying he could grab a woman “by the pussy,” adding, “I moved on her like a bitch.” “Trump’s repeated actions and comments toward women have been disrespectful, profane and demeaning,” said Crapo hours after the tape went public, urging Trump to “step aside” from the top of the GOP ticket. “Trump’s most recent excuse of ‘locker room talk’ is completely unacceptable and is inconsistent with protecting women from abusive, disparaging treatment,” he added. Trump insists he never acted on his claims and his statements were “only talk.” Still, the mounting evidence of Trump’s bad behavior only mounted. On Oct.12, The New York Times interviewed two women who said the real estate mogul and reality TV star touched them inappropriately. On the same day, CBS News reported a then-46-year-old Trump joked in a 1992 interview about dating a 10-year-old girl when she’s older. “This is not a decision that I have reached lightly,” wrote Crapo in a statement disavowing his party’s standard bearer. Sturgill said Crapo’s dismissal came too late.

“This latest group of detractors, including Sen. Crapo, look like a bunch of weak-kneed, last-minute deserters, demonstrating a history of poor judgment, hypocrisy and lack of independence,” said Sturgill. “These Trump ‘traitors’ are a symptom of a broken Congress, where any good judgement and independence are leached out in the mind-numbing marinade of Washington party politics.” Stung by a backlash from diehard Trump supporters on the far reaches of their own party, some of the same Republican members of Congress who previously demanded Trump step aside began changing their own course by Oct.12, when The New York Times reported a number of GOP senators and U.S. representatives conceded they would probably vote for Trump after all. Meanwhile Crapo’s criticism of Trump began catching flak from sectors of his own party. “Trump was chosen by us to represent us,” wrote Idaho County Republican Central Committee Chairman Jon Menough on Oct. 12. “With your announcement that you would no longer support Mr. Trump, in our opinion, you have relinquished your right to be associated with the Party we represent. Effective immediately, the Idaho County Republican Central Committee

will provide neither physical nor financial support to your effort to be re-elected.” Meanwhile, Idaho Republican Party leaders remained mum on Crapo’s non-endorsement of Trump, but were quick to issue a statement of their own. “Donald Trump has shown himself to be the agent of change,” wrote IDGOP Chairman Steve Yates on Oct. 11. “The Idaho Republican Party remains steadfast in its support for all of our nominees, selected by the people, from the top of the ticket to the bottom. As is our duty and privilege in the party, we will remain focused on electing Republicans in Idaho.” Meanwhile, Sturgill said the Trump debacle was “the No. 1 component of why Crapo is vulnerable.” “We’ve conducted our own internal polling and it revealed that the Trump effect was No. 1 in this race,” said Sturgill, who added that Crapo’s own “personal problem” had triggered what he called “a seething undercurrent of disaffection for Crapo after he got busted for DUI.” “When you Google Mike Crapo, what do you see? His mugshot,” said Sturgill. 6 The DUI incident occurred on the night of Dec. 22, 2012 when Crapo, by his

BOTANICAL GARDEN CRIES FOUL AT PROPOSED CONCERT SERIES FOR ANN MORRISON PARK Its formal classification is RFP-17-048-02017/wm, and the description from the city of Boise’s request for proposals is to, “Provide all services necessary to create a successful concert series.” Meanwhile, the Idaho Botanical Garden says the city’s proposal threatens the very livelihood of the nonprofit. “We don’t think we should be the only concert series in the Treasure Valley,” said Erin Anderson, executive director of IBG, whose Outlaw Field Concert Series played host this year to Tony Bennett, Bonnie Raitt and Neil Young. “We encourage healthy competition. But should the city subsidize a concert series that could negatively impact the Idaho Botanical Garden?” she added. “We want a fair playing field. But by the city hosting a concert series in a city park paid for with taxpayer dollars, it’s going to create a conflict.” The city’s RFP surfaced Sept. 28, asking promoters to submit a plan to create a “contemporary concert series” for Ann Morrison Park. The concerts would take place on available dates in 2017 and, according to the RFP packet, a number of dates would be available in late May; early June; the second, third and fourth weeks of July; the first two weeks of August; the final three weeks of September; and the final three weeks of October. The preferred proposal would carry a one-year agreement with a promoter, with a two-year extension option. “The City expressly retains the right to have sole discretion and approval of all entertainers proposed and selected by the proposer,” according to the RFP. “Performances would end no later than 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and no later than 9 p.m. on all other nights.” Anderson told Boise Weekly that, having worked in the Boise Parks and Recreation Department before becoming IBG executive director, she knows for a fact that concert promoters have approached the city on a number of occasions about using a city park for concerts. “I have a little background, and some concert promotion companies have asked the city—quite often—to use park space. But it’s something the city has shied away from for quite some time because of the ordinance,” said Anderson. 6 According to Boise Parks and Recreation’s own policies, “City Code restricts BOISEweekly | OCTOBER 19–25, 2016 | 5

NEWS own admission, drank vodka tonics alone in his Washington, D.C. apartment, got behind the wheel of a 1999 Jeep and drove through the Capitol Hill district, past the city’s iconic monuments and into Alexandria, Va., where he ran a red light. Crapo was pulled over and blew a 0.11 blood alcohol content level. Two weeks later, the senator pleaded guilty to drunk driving and was sentenced to a $250 file, a year’s suspension of his driver’s license, a suspended sentence of 180 days in jail and a requirement to enroll in an alcohol safety program. “I have recently made personal choices that are at odds with who I am, who Idahoans rightly believe me to be and who I strive to be,” said Crapo, minutes after stepping outside the courthouse. Four years later, Crapo is now being put to the political test, his first reelection effort since the DUI conviction. “As I said then, and I saw now, it was a terrible mistake,” Crapo told Boise Weekly. “It was a difficult time… very difficult. I was probably as hard on myself as anyone else. Out of it came a very strong self re-evaluation. The positive part of it is that I found the people of Idaho are very loving and forgiving. By far, the strong, biggest message delivered to me was, ‘I’m disappointed. You should not have done that. But react to it properly, build yourself back and be a strong senator.’ That’s what I’ve tried to do.” Crapo hasn’t taken anything for granted. In letters to constituents and financial backers, Crapo wrote he was taking Sturgill “very seriously.” “[Sturgill] is a corporate lawyer and investment banker with strong connections in New York City, where he used to work, and has the potential for attracting vast sums of money from his left-wing network,” wrote Crapo to potential funders. “He’s as liberal as I am conservative.” Sturgill says that’s about half-right. “An investment banker? Sure. Have I been helping small companies in Idaho grow? You bet. Since when was that a liberal idea?” he asked. Sturgill grew up in Twin Falls in what he described as a Republican family. “We talked politics every night at the dinner table. Dad was a Republican precinct chairman for Twin Falls County and I was president of the Teen Republican Club in high school,” he said, adding he even shook hands with then-President Richard Nixon in 1969 when the young Sturgill traveled to the nation’s capital to participate in a youth political event. “But my idol was Senator Frank Church, a Democrat from Idaho and the greatest example of a statesman than I can think of,” Sturgill said. After an LDS mission in Quebec, Canada, graduation from BYU law school and a stint in corporate law in New York City, Sturgill said he was anxious to return to Idaho in 1995. He was a fan of candidates on both sides of the political aisle, working on campaigns for former Democratic Congress members Richard Stallings and

the sale and advertisement of goods and services in city parks. The City of Boise 5 chooses to maintain public parks as open space accessible to all residents and visitors (no admission charges are permitted).” Anderson wonders how the city plans to do an end-run around its own rules. “Are they working around the ordinance? That’s what it feels like,” she said. “But I’m not sure how they envision that, which is why we’re looking for a formal sit-down conversation with the city.” That conversation will come Monday, Oct. 24 at Boise City Hall, where Anderson confirmed she’ll be meeting with a team of representatives from the Parks and Rec Department. According to the city’s own documents, there have been no previous attempts to create a series of concerts in Boise parks; but, if approved, “this series would be handled under a specific contract with [the] promoter.” The city would have some specific requirements of a concert series promoter. The RFP indicates a percentage or fixed amount of the proceeds from the concert series would go to a local charity. Concert promoters are being asked to identify up to five local charities that would receive funds from the proceeds. Additionally, each ticket sold would include a $3 “park improvement fee” that would go into city coffers. Under the terms of the RFP, a successful concert series promoter would reap the benefits of food and beverage sales, including some alcohol sales. At least 10 percent of any food sold at the venue for the first year of the series would have to be “healthy,” as defined by the city’s healthy food policy. By the second and third years of the concert series, healthy food choices would be required to make up 20 and 30 percent, respectively, of all food offered. Regardless of its management structure, Anderson said a competing concert series in a city park would strike at the very heart of the Idaho Botanical Garden’s sustainability. “This proposed concert series, only 3.3 miles away from our concert series, would come into direct competition,” she said. “Our big question [to the city] is: Why are you working around City Code when such a concert series would have such a negative impact on a beloved nonprofit in our community?” —George Prentice 6 | OCTOBER 19–25, 2016 | BOISEweekly

It’s basically in three parts: Republicans on the right, Democrats on the left and a very big swath of independents in the middle who have traditionally gone to the right,” said Sturgill. “So, what would happen if just enough voters leaned toward a Democrat? Quite frankly, our internal polling indicates that there is a tangible symptom of anti-establishment this year. And that hurts Mike Crapo.” In a rare move meant to accomplish statewide outreach, Crapo spent almost two years traveling to every incorporated city in Idaho—200 in all—meeting with constituents in town halls, restaurants and at their kitchen tables. “Have you ever been to Warm River, population 3? I just came back from there. It’s just above Ashton on the old highway to Yellowstone,” Crapo said. “There’s a nearby fishing lodge where I talked with nine people. There’s a town called Golden, population 1. I was there. There’s a house tucked behind a bunch of trees, but there’s a boulder out front with ‘Golden’ spray painted on it.” Crapo racked up thousands of miles over 22 months to visit the 200 cities and towns, and he said he’s continuously impressed by how engaged his constituency is. “The cowboy? He’s got a laptop in his saddlebag. Believe me, people are very sophisticated on national and international issues,” said Crapo. “There are some common themes, but there’s also an overriding anger about the fact that government is dysfunctional. More and more people are telling me that they’re concerned over intrusive, big government and that the national debt is huge.” If he is elected to a fourth term, Crapo will have served 24 years in the U.S. Senate in addition to six years in the U.S. House of Represen-

tatives and eight years before that in the Idaho Legislature. When asked “How long is too long in office?” Crapo argued it comes down to having the commitment to keep fighting for the principles that first put him in office. “I believe in a limited government, that the Constitution should be interpreted as-written; that we should have a free market with limited government control and a strong focus on individual rights,” said Crapo. “But I believe we’ve been sliding, quite aggressively, toward a huge federal government with extensive control over our economy and a subjugation of individual rights. As long as I can keep fighting the fight and effectively advocating for those original principles, I know I can be effective.” Sturgill says when he points to Crapo’s voting record in the U.S. Senate, he sees particular vulnerabilities when it comes to Idaho independents. “Let’s take a look at the Lilly Ledbetter vote,” said Sturgill referring to a 2009 “no” vote when Crapo joined 35 other Republicans to try to kill a measure Democrats said would strengthen equal pay protections for women. “I find it ironic that Senator Crapo has done such good work on legislation to protect women from violence, but voted against a paycheck fairness act,” said Sturgill. “But that’s just one issue that voters are telling me that they want change on. Public lands, stronger funding for education and a much stronger economy. That’s what I want to talk about.” Sturgill concedes the top of the ticket may be the ultimate factor in swaying his contest. “Quite frankly a lot of people in Idaho think Hillary Clinton is the devil incarnate and those are weeds I don’t have time to get into,” said Sturgill. “But Trump? You bet he’s going to influence this race and a lot of others. Get ready for change.” BOISE WEEKLY.COM

IDAHO VIRTUAL REALITY COUNCIL VR BASH

FIFTH ANNUAL HORRIFIC PUPPET AFFAIR

HAUNTED HALLOWEEN TROLLEY TOURS

Whether you’re a VR enthusiast or you’re not even sure what those letters mean, check out the latest in a new wave of technology innovation at this family friendly party hosted by the Idaho Virtual Reality Council. “Our goal here is to open eyes,” said IVRC President Jessica Whiting. “Once you experience VR, your creativity ignites and you can see how to apply it.” Partygoers can try out more than 20 virtual and augmented reality experiences including everything from an unreleased game to a simulation that lets you take a car apart. Guest speakers are Mark Cranney, from Silicon Valley giant Andreessen Horowitz, who will talk business strategy; and Hardie Tankersley, winner of the first Emmy Award for VR, who will talk about virtual reality in Hollywood. Get free tickets online— and don’t forget about the after party. For reals. 5:30-7:30 p.m., FREE. Knitting Factory Concert House, 416 S. Ninth St., 208-367-1212, bo.knittingfactory.com.

In the horror series Puppet Master, puppets inhabited by human spirits are summoned using an ancient Egyptian curse and commit sadistic murders with knives and drill bits. The fiends are tiny, versatile and deadly—pure Halloween horror. For those with more lighthearted tastes than terrifying toys, there’s the Horrific Puppet Affair, now in its fifth year. Homegrown Theatre’s wildly popular tradition features original humorous and spooky tales—“Zomb-Erella” by Erika Jenko, “Time Trap!” by Matthew Baltzell, “Drown” by Heidi Kraay and more—told with custom made puppets. Performances run at Woodland Empire Ale Craft from the pay-what-you-want preview Thursday, Oct. 20, through the Halloween night closing bash. Oct. 20-22, 26-29, 31, 8 p.m.; Oct. 22, 29, 10:15 p.m. $5-$10. Woodland Empire Ale Craft, 1114 W. Front St., Boise, 208-4260510, facebook.com/HGTheatre.

Like any city, Boise has its share of ghosts. Get a spooky season primer on the spirits that wander the streets on a Haunted Halloween Trolley Tour offered by Boise Trolley Tours. The company’s vintage Molly Trolley will be decked out in frightful decorations for the creepy 1.5 hour cruises, which depart from Joe’s Crab Shack (2288 N. Garden St.) Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. and then nightly during the week of Halloween.

With the 15th annual Boise Weekly Cover Art Auction, we continue our mission to support local artists. Since its inception, our annual auction has raised more than $150,000 and made possible numerous public artworks, children’s educational programs, gallery shows and exhibitions. This year, we’re putting original work that appeared on the cover of BW over the past 12 months up for auction Wednesday, Oct. 19 at Jack’s Urban Meeting Place. Doors open at 5 p.m. and the auction action ramps up at 6 p.m. Admission costs $20 at the door and gets you in for an evening of bidding, wining and dining, with snacks and appetizers from local Chef Jered Couch and beer from Highlands Hollow Brewhouse. Following the auction, bring your event wristband across the street to Bonefish Grill (855 W. Broad St.) and enjoy $5 martinis. As in years past, a portion of proceeds from the sale of works will benefit the artists who created them; a portion will go toward BW’s Cover Auction Art Grant, which also supports local artists; and a piece of the pie will benefit BW’s journalistic mission. To apply for a grant, see the application and details at communityfund.boiseweekly.com. The deadline for grant applications is Friday, Feb. 10, 2017.

The folk-rock Indigo Girls and rock-rock Goo Goo Dolls have more in common than may be apparent at first glance. Members in both bands met in school, have been together (and active) for three decades, released albums in 1987 that were picked up by larger record companies in 1988, and both are world-renowned. IG and GGD are both such iconic acts, they’ve become part of our pop culture. From soundtrack inclusions to media mentions, references to the Indigo Girls have popped up in 30 Rock, The Office and South Park, while Goo Goo Dolls songs can be heard in TV shows and movies like 90210, Being Erica, Charmed, New Year’s Eve, Smallville and Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Last, but far from least, both iconic acts are performing in Boise on Wednesdays in October. Crazy, right? The Indigo Girls will fill the Egyptian Theatre with their dulcet harmonies on Oct. 19, while the Goo Goo Dolls will shake the walls when they rock out the Revolution Concert House on Oct. 26. —Amy Atkins

The local world fusion band is set to drop its new album, People Meet Your People, which, based on the lyrics, is all about the world getting smaller, embracing neighbors and getting freaky. The new album has a big, brassy, sexy sound, replete with the influences of reggae, jazz, electronica, funk and gospel.

WINESIPPER THE MANY MOODS OF MALBEC With so much so-so Malbec washing in from Argentina, it’s easy to take the variety for granted. Once a mainstay of Bordeaux red blends, it has fallen out of favor there. In France, only Cahors continues to champion the grape, but it was Argentina that rescued Malbec from obscurity, creating a surge in popularity. Eventually, supply outstripped demand, resulting in some less than stellar bottles imported to fill the gap. That said, as this tasting proved, good Malbec is hard to beat. 2013 CHÂTEAU LA GRAVE CAHORS, $14 The fruity aromas are a mix of dusty berry and spicy cedar. The palate is round, ripe and wellstructured with tangy cherry and red berry fruit wrapped around smooth tannins. With its velvety finish, this wine just gets better and better with time in the glass. For some six generations, La Grave has been crafting exceptional Malbec. 2013 HUSTON VINEYARDS MALBEC, $29 The nose is beautifully perfumed, offering spicy cherry and berry liqueur, vanilla bean and a kiss of oak. The savory flavors of dense berry fruit combine with intriguing layers of smooth oak, coffee, vanilla and licorice, while touches of pepper and leather come through on the finish. Cinder’s Melanie Krause crafts this outstanding Idaho Malbec for the Hustons. 2014 KAIKEN MALBEC RESERVA, $12 From this Argentine domaine, you get a wine with a healthy hit of oak backing the sweet berry aromas along with floral violet, anise, creamy coffee and black pepper. The ripe berry flavors are balanced by racy acidity and backed by dark chocolate and supple oak. Ripe tannins add grip to the finish—an amazing value. —David Kirkpatrick BOISE WEEKLY.COM

SCREEN WHAT LIES BENEATH

Denial deconstructs one of history’s greatest liars GEORGE PRENTICE Imagine a lie so egregious, you could be jailed for spreading the deception. As many as 14 European nations have deemed Holocaust denial illegal; and, in the past decade, Austria, France, Germany and Hungary have sent at least 13 men and women to prison for insisting millions of prisoners were not murdered as part of Nazi Germany’s “Final Solution.” In the United States and United Kingdom, however, laws against Holocaust denial have been continually quashed, with many arguing free speech protections shelter such claims. Some even argue prosecuting Holocaust deniers elevates them to martyrdom. Denial, a new film from director Mick Jackson (Temple Grandin, The Bodyguard, L.A. Story), is based on a series of legal battles over Holocaust denial, which pitted denier David Irving against Penguin Books in a London courtroom. Irving sued Penguin and American There’s no denying the greatness, or importance of Denial, starring (left to right) Timothy Spall, Rachel Weisz and scholar Deborah Lipstadt for libel after the Tom Wilkinson. publication of her 1993 landmark best seller, Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory, in which she detailed Julius is expertly played in the film by anti-Zionist conspiracies.

CITIZEN TOM DAVIS AND MARTIN FROST

Clinton vs. Trump, cable news and the partisan divide GEORGE PRENTICE

We may not see the likes of Tom Davis and Martin Frost in the chambers of Congress any time soon. The two former members of the U.S. House of Representatives—Davis represented northern Virginia for 14 years and Frost represented the Dallas-Fort Worth area for 26 years—came from opposite sides of the aisle: Davis is a staunch Republican and Frost is a diedin-the-wool Democrat. Yet, their years on Capitol Hill were distinguished by compromise and reasoned logic. More recently, they co-authored The Partisan Divide: Congress in Crisis (Fast Pencil Premiere, November 2014), a best-seller examining political differences not often bridged. On Thursday, Oct. 28, the pair will be keynote speakers at the annual Frank Church Conference on Public Affairs, dubbed “Politics and Prose.” Do you have a sense of whether more Americans are voting along party lines rather than for individual candidates? Davis: There’s a pattern where we’ve seen more straight party-line voting.

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Frost: I think this election may be different and more unpredictable. Davis: Each presidential candidate is so unpopular but I still think, by and large, you’ll see mostly straight-ticket voting.

Davis: Martin and I have a saying: Liberal and conservative voters have passions. Moderate voters have lives, and moderates don’t tend to vote in primaries.

Do you believe cable news contributes to the nation’s partisan divide? Tom: Between talk radio, the internet and cable news, you have different sets of Americans dealing with different sets of facts. Cable news is an offender, but not the only offender. Frost: But it’s a recent phenomenon. Some very smart people at Fox decided to build a cable news channel to cater to conservative folks. MSNBC did the same for liberals. They’ve both made a lot of money. Poor old CNN suffers when they go down the middle. I’m assuming you’ve decided whether you’ll be voting for Mrs. Clinton or Mr. Trump, but I’m curious about how enthused you are about your choice. Frost: I have no problem saying I’m for Hillary. Davis: I’m a Republican. I was a John Kasich supporter. We don’t always like the choices we get, but, ultimately, it’s about the direction of the country. That’s about all I’ll say on that.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): In the 1980s, two performance artists did a project entitled A Year Tied Together at the Waist. For 12 months, Linda Montano and Tehching Hsieh were never farther than eight feet away from each other, bound by a rope. Hsieh said he tried this experiment because he felt very comfortable doing solo work, but wanted to upgrade his abilities as a collaborator. Montano testified that the piece “dislodged a deep hiddenness” in her. It sharpened her intuition and gave her a “heightened passion for living and relating.” If you were ever going to engage in a comparable effort to deepen your intimacy skills, Aries, the coming weeks would be a favorable time to attempt it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In the coming weeks would you prefer that we refer to you as “voracious”? Or do you like the word “ravenous” better? I have a feeling that you will be extra eager to consume vast quantities of just about everything: food, information, beauty, sensory stimulation, novelty, pleasure and who knows what else. Please keep this in mind: Your hunger could be a torment or a gift. Which way it goes may depend on your determination to actually enjoy what you devour. In other words, don’t get so enchanted by the hypnotic power of your longing that you neglect to exult in the gratification when your longing is satisfied.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): When the wind blows at ten miles per hour, a windmill generates eight times more power than when the breeze is five miles per hour. Judging from the astrological omens, I suspect there will be a similar principle at work in your life during the coming weeks. A modest increase in effort and intensity will make a huge difference in the results you produce. Are you willing to push yourself a bit beyond your comfort level in order to harvest a wave of abundance? CANCER (June 21-July 22): Cuthbert Collingwood (1748-1810) had a distinguished career as an admiral in the British navy, leading the sailors under his command to numerous wartime victories. He was also a good-natured softie whose men regarded him as generous and kind. Between battles, while enjoying his downtime, he hiked through the English countryside carrying acorns, which he planted here and there so the “Navy would never want for oaks to build the fighting ships upon which the country’s safety depended.” (Quoted in Life in Nelson’s Navy, by Dudley Pope.) I propose that we make him your role model for the coming weeks. May his example inspire you to be both an effective warrior and a tender soul who takes practical actions to plan for the future.

24 | OCTOBER 19–25, 2016 | BOISEweekly

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Eighteenth-century musician Giuseppe Tartini has been called “the godfather of modern violin playing.” He was also an innovative composer who specialized in poignant and poetic melodies. One of his most famous works is the Sonata in G Minor, also known as the Devil’s Trill. Tartini said it was inspired by a dream in which he made a pact with the Devil to provide him with new material. The Infernal One picked up a violin and played the amazing piece that Tartini transcribed when he woke up. Here’s the lesson for you: He didn’t actually sell his soul to the Devil. Simply engaging in this rebellious, taboo act in the realm of fantasy had the alchemical effect of unleashing a burst of creative energy. Try it! VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The planets have aligned in a curious pattern. I interpret it as meaning that you have cosmic permission to indulge in more self-interest and self-seeking than usual. So it won’t be taboo for you to unabashedly say, “What exactly is in it for me?” or “Prove your love, my dear” or “Gimmeee gimmeee gimmee what I want.” If someone makes a big promise, you shouldn’t be shy about saying, “Will you put that in writing?” If you get a sudden urge to snag the biggest piece of the pie, obey that urge.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In the course of her long career, Libran actress Helen Hayes won an Oscar, an Emmy, a Grammy and a Tony. Years before all that glory poured down on her, she met playwright Charles MacArthur at a party in a posh Manhattan salon. Hayes was sitting shyly in a dark corner. MacArthur glided over to her and slipped a few salted peanuts into her hand. “I wish they were emeralds,” he told her. It was love at first sight. A few years after they got married, MacArthur bought Hayes an emerald necklace. I foresee a metaphorically comparable event in your near future, Libra: peanuts serving as a promise of emeralds. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Welcome to the Painkiller Phase of your cycle. It’s time to relieve your twinges, dissolve your troubles, and banish your torments. You can’t sweep away the whole mess in one quick heroic purge, of course. But I bet you can pare it down by at least 33 percent. (More is quite possible.) To get started, make the following declaration five times a day for the next three days: “I am grateful for all the fascinating revelations and indispensable lessons that my pain has taught me.” On each of the three days after that, affirm this truth five times: “I have learned all I can from my pain, and therefore no longer need its reminders. Goodbye, pain.” On the three days

after that, say these words, even if you can’t bring yourself to mean them with complete sincerity: “I forgive everybody of everything.” SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): For the foreseeable future, you possess the following powers: to make sensible that which has been unintelligible... to find amusement in situations that had been tedious... to create fertile meaning where before there had been sterile chaos. Congratulations, Sagittarius! You are a first-class transformer. But that’s not all. I suspect you will also have the ability to distract people from concerns that aren’t important... to deepen any quest that has been too superficial or careless to succeed... and to ask the good questions that will render the bad questions irrelevant. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In the past 11 months, did you ever withhold your love on purpose? Have there been times when you “punished” those you cared about by acting cold and aloof? Can you remember a few occasions when you could have been more generous or compassionate, but chose not to be? If you answered yes to any of those questions, the next three weeks will be an excellent time to atone. You’re in a phase of your astrological cycle when you can reap maximum benefit from correcting stingy mistakes. I suggest that you make

gleeful efforts to express your most charitable impulses. Be a tower of bountiful power. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In 1415, a smaller English army defeated French forces at the Battle of Agincourt in northern France. Essential to England’s victory were its 7,000 longbowmen—archers who shot big arrows using bows that were six feet long. So fast and skilled were these warriors that they typically had three arrows flying through the air at any one time. That’s the kind of highpowered proficiency I recommend that you summon during your upcoming campaign. If you need more training to reach that level of effectiveness, get it immediately. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Let’s imagine your life as a novel. The most recent chapter, which you’ll soon be drawing to a close, might be called “The Redemption of Loneliness.” Other apt titles: “Intimacy with the Holy Darkness” or “The Superpower of Surrender” or “The End Is Secretly the Beginning.” Soon you will start a new chapter, which I’ve tentatively dubbed “Escape from Escapism,” or perhaps “Liberation from False Concepts of Freedom” or “Where the Wild Things Are.” And the expansive adventures of this next phase will have been made possible by the sweet-and-sour enigmas of the past four weeks.

PAGE BREAK THE MORAL MACHINE

$GYLFH IRU WKRVH RQ WKH YHUJH

While self-driving vehicle technology is still being refined, one crucial task is developing “machine intelligence”—a fancy way of describing the kinds of decisions a driverless car will have to make as it navigates complicated infrastructure. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have created a method for “gathering a human perspective on moral decisions made by machine intelligence,” by presenting a series of choices that could potentially face a driverless car whose brakes have failed. Which is preferable? A driverless vehicle plows into a crowd of jaywalking moralmachine.mit.edu runners or avoids the pedestrians and kills a family with three children? Characters in the scenarios go beyond age and gender to include weight, profession and socioeconomic status—even throwing in animals. At the conclusion of the battery of choices, users are given their results: how important was it to save a larger number of lives, protect passengers or uphold the law? They’re tough choices, but if we can’t face them, should we really be asking machines to make them for us? —Zach Hagadone

“TRUSTY SIDEKICK”

DEAR MINERVA, I recently got out of a long-term, same-sex relationship. I’m back on the dating scene and looking for a new lady friend. During my last relationship, I got used to using a specific toy. It worked well for me to get the job done and I want to know: Do I retire my trusty sidekick or can he come along for the ride? Sincerely, —The Dynamic Duo

DEAR DYNAMIC DUO, So you want to jump back in the saddle with your trusty comrade. I think there are a couple of ways to approach this. If money isn’t a concern, perhaps buy the same model. Doing this will let you still work your magic with the same tool you are used to but one without so much “herstory.” This will keep your mattress mojo consistent. If money is an issue, sterilize your old standby. I’m sure you know the BUZZ regarding sex toy maintenance and sterilization. For those who don’t, a quick Google search should tell you what you need to know. Of course, the fun route might be to go on a shopping expedition with your new special someone and you can pick something out that not only works for you but for her body, too. This will also give you a fresh start with something that doesn’t have so many emotional and sexual memories associated with it. Don’t start things off toying with her emotions. There is a whole world of gadgetry at your fingertips. Wishing you good vibrations! 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.
