EDITOR’S NOTE LIGHT UP THE NIGHT You may have noticed it’s getting darker earlier. I certainly have. I’m a bike commuter, and the end of daylight savings time, which took place this past weekend, made my ride home after work significantly more perilous. Visibility is one of the keys to staying safe as a cyclist all year long, and making sure the people we share the streets with can see us is even more important now.

A few weeks ago during my ride to work, a man reached out his car window and handed me a “blinky” bike light. My Rec feature this week is about how I tracked that man down and learned he’s an attorney who specializes in the law as it pertains to bikes.

His name is Kurt Holzer, and he has tremendous insight into tensions between motorists and riders, the Idaho Stop and the Ada County Highway District.

Bikes and roads are a major theme this week. In News, talented intern Veronica Lemaster reports on a proposal that would prevent cars from parking in the bike lane on Eighth Street, and News Editor George Prentice explains why Broad Street in the new LIV district remains closed to traffic but how it became a makeshift parking lot despite its grand re-opening a month ago.

Elsewhere in this edition, Staff Writer Lex Nelson describes her journey to the other end of the state to find out why two Biodynamic dairy farmers in eastern Idaho have named their cows Justin Timberlake and Glinda Good Witch, why they bury horns packed with crushed quartz crystals on their property every year, and what they think all this means for the milk and cheese they produce, as well as for their four-year-old son.

And now for some shameless self-promotion: This year, I’m wrangling the 16th annual Boise Weekly Fiction 101 contest, and I want to overwhelm the panel of star judges I’ve assembled with an avalanche of entries. You, dear reader, can help me make that happen. All you have to do is submit a 101-word story to fiction101@boiseweekly.com, along with a $10 entry fee for each submission to boiseweekly.nolatepayments.com. Entries are due Friday, Nov. 24.

DIOGENES HE AIN’T

And don’t count on Jimmy for a full day’s work BILL COPE Citizens of Idaho, about two weeks ago, Senator Jim Risch (R-Idaho), a man who has been representing us in one capacity or another for 47 years now, said this before a national audience: “Wolf [Blitzer], if I went around criticizing a statement that was made by the president or any one of my fellow senators or any one of the congressmen up here or people in Idaho who hold public office, and I stood up and talked every time they talked and said ‘I don’t like this ... I don’t like that,’ I’d be busy all day long.” This was in answer to the question of what his responsibility is as a U.S. Senator, when he is aware the president has told a lie.

Certainly, given the nature of the current president, no one could argue that calling out his lies could turn into a monumental time eater-upper.

I came across a figure recently that indicated this president lies on an average of five times a day—and that’s only the lies we know about. The ones the public hears. Who even wants to guess the magnitude of bullshit he’s telling people in private? Especially as there is no evidence—not from nine months in office, a year-and-a-half of campaigning or any moment from any time in his previous life, either as a child, as an adult or as the disgusting specimen into which he’s aged— that he has ever told the truth. Based on our experience of having 30 to 40 years of this bloated carbuncle being constantly in the public eye, the only assumption we can safely make is that his tongue is as unacquainted with truth as Harvey Weinstein is with personal boundaries.

(Pardon me for not using his name more. I have a powerful gag reflex, and it is in my own interest that I say or write that particular word (gulp) “Trump” as seldom as possible. I try not to do it more than once—twice, at most—in any given column.)

So ... yes. Calling out the carbuncle would be more time-consuming than Facebook, crocheting, and binge-watching Mad Men, combined.

But Risch didn’t limit his reticence to simply making a response to the president’s lies, nor did he limit it to just lies. This public servant (wink, wink) slickly conflated the issue of presidential perjury to include statements of any sort from colleagues in the Senate or House that he may find arguable. Then he threw in elected officials back home in Idaho for good measure. It was as though, in Jim Risch’s beady brain, a cagerattling, pot-stirring whopper coming from the one man on Earth with the capacity to launch a nuclear strike, gut our nation’s health care, disrupt institutions trusted in by millions, and upset the lives of more millions of immigrants, gays, educators, military personnel, female employees,

etc., is equivalent to whatever might slip through the lips of some dork Congressman from Outer Arkansas, or some legislative clown back in Cornhole County, Idaho.

And Jim Risch just plain ain’t got the time for it. “I’d be busy all day long!” cried he.

True. Were he obliged to respond to everything objectionable that comes from his colleagues both in Washington and here, where he must return periodically if he wishes to keep his seat, he certainly would be “busy all day long”— particularly since Risch is a highly-placed official from the political party that has distinguished itself for the sheer volume of stupid statements, ignorant positions, Medieval attitudes and Dark Ages behavior among its members. Indeed, there are simply not enough hours in the Space-Time Continuum to comment on everything dumb that comes from Risch’s fellow Republicans.

But that wasn’t what he was asked about. Let us return to the CNN tape and review the original question. Blitzer: “But when [the president] lies about something, and you know it’s a lie, shouldn’t you speak out?”

Risch: “That’s your job.”

Blitzer: But ... that’s your job. You are a United States Senator ... [a member of ] a co-equal branch of the U.S. government.”

At this point in the exchange, Senator Greasy detoured into the diversionary discussion, quoted above, of how he doesn’t have time to criticize everything every politician, everywhere, might say.

So then, as the White House and everyone in it slip ever nearer to the edge of that Constitutional abyss we’ve all seen coming, is there anything about this episode that tells us what we might expect from Risch in regards to the crisis to which (gulp) Trump has brought this nation?

Ah, but don’t we already know what to expect from Jim Risch? We’ve had almost 50 years of Jim Risch—time enough to understand the many degrees of weaselry to which he will resort to keep himself beyond the gravitational pull of morality. He is, if nothing else, an opportunist, having risen through the hierarchy of state and federal job titles almost as much by interim appointments (and the opportunity presented when a higher-up left a job open) as he has by being properly elected. And now, he stands to become Chairman of a vital watchdog, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, not by virtue of his own talents, but because Bob Corker is leaving the Senate, having decided conscience demands an honest man speaks out when dishonest men lie.

Poor Li’l Jimmy. He might end up “busy all day long” in spite of his best efforts to be parttime help.

VERONICA LEMASTER

NEWS

Cars and trucks blocking Broad Street raise questions about the new LIV district.

NOT YET LIV-ABLE

A proposed barrier would prevent cars from parking in the bike lane on Eighth Street.

NO PARKING ANY TIME

Boise brothers create blueprint for Eighth Street bike lane protection VERONICA LEMASTER On any given weekday, parked cars line Eighth Street in downtown Boise, leaving a narrow path for one-way traffic. While there is a bike lane, it is frequently blocked by parked delivery trucks, which is why a score of people stood along Eighth Street this past summer, forming a human chain to bar delivery trucks, taxis and other motorists from parking in the bike lane.

“It’s about making sure that when bike facilities are created, they are protected ... and not being used for other reasons,” said Tucker Anderson, one of the organizers of the demonstration. “It’s not a war on cars but a war on bad behaviors.”

Tucker is an architect, his brother Clancy is a produce broker. Both use bikes to commute and advocate a protected bike lane along Eighth Street. They even created “Eighth Street Protected Bike Lane,” a blueprint for improving cycling infrastructure on Eighth Street.

Unlike most Boise streets, which are owned and managed by the Ada County Highway District, two downtown blocks of Eighth Street are owned by the Capital City Development Corporation. In early 2019, CCDC will turn them over to the city. The Anderson brothers’ blueprint mapped out what Eighth Street could look like, including temporary parking lanes and removable “flex posts,” a CCDC requirement. Under the plan, Eighth Street between Main and Idaho streets would have several five-minute parking stalls opposite the bike lane. The contra-flow bike BOISE WEEKLY.COM

lane would be protected by bollards spaced out to account for Boise Farmer’s Market stalls and walkways. The brothers sent their blueprint to CCDC in early July and have yet to hear back.

A concrete island proposed by the city and approved by ACHD is currently under construction on Capitol Boulevard in front of Boise City Hall, and could be a model for improving bike infrastructure on Eighth Street. The island, the cost of which is expected to reach $91,000, would be a physical barrier between motorists and cyclists there, but the Andersons said it will only confuse riders and drivers.

“It’s just more of a concept,” said Tucker. “As for the costs [of our plan], there’s paint, which is negatable because most of the paint is already there. This is just a guess, and it’s probably high, but even if you install the [flex posts] for $300 apiece, it’s not that much. And then there’s some signage, and we’re showing a couple of these fiveminute stalls.”

The Andersons said they aren’t planning any more demonstrations, and believe they have made their point. Instead, the brothers plan to keep trying to contact CCDC and the city. As of press time, calls to CCDC for comment have not been returned.

Although officials haven’t responded, the public has given input. Lisa Brady, president and events coordinator of the Treasure Valley Cycling Alliance, said the reaction has been

positive because people are confused by the current road design.

“The thing that has come out both times we’ve been down there on that lane was that people didn’t understand [it] was actually a bike lane or a fire lane, which shows me that when we put green, red, yellow or white [paint], that we have an assumed understanding of what that actually means in the department,” said Brady.

Dave Fotsch, the director of Boise GreenBike, said he would like to see more protected bike lanes and see the number of cars downtown reduced. More riders, he said, would mean safer streets and increased visits to downtown businesses and restaurants.

“I know that the majority of the riders of our bike share program are the interested but concerned riders, so they’re not the ones that are going [to go] out there and ride in traffic,” Fotsch said.

Despite these concerns, City of Boise Spokesman Mike Journee said the busy downtown street is a “model of mixed use.”

“Bike friendliness, pedestrian friendliness and, yes, vehicles too,” Journee said. “We understand the broad range of challenges in a mixeduse environment, but at the end of the day, we have no immediate plans to change Eighth Street … In fact, if we could duplicate the environment of Eighth Street [in] other locations, that would be great.”

When the City of Boise hosted a block party on Broad Street between Fifth and Sixth streets in mid-October to celebrate the redesigned thoroughfare as the first new LIV district—Lasting, Innovative, Vibrant—the message was loud and clear: Come one, come all and see the new environmentally friendly area. But the party is over, and since the Oct. 12 celebration, that block of Broad Street has resembled a parking lot with vehicles parked bumper-to-bumper, sometimes curb-to-curb. (Full disclosure: The offices of Boise Weekly are at the corner of Sixth and Broad.)

“Our inspector says it has been a ‘soft closure’ on Broad Street,” said Ada County Highway District Communications Manager Craig Quintana.

Boise-based Andersen Construction secured a permit to close Broad Street between Fifth and Sixth streets while the firm completes construction on The Fowler, a 159-unit apartment building opening soon. Quintana said the soft closure was designed to accommodate construction vehicles but still allow public access around those trucks. When the block devolved into a makeshift parking lot for people working on projects along and near Broad Street, Boise Weekly asked officials with the city about enforcement, because many of the cars and trucks had no permits to park on the closed-off street. Officials with parking enforcement said the block needed better “no parking” signage.

Another problem surfaced when an increasing number of cars and trucks parked along Broad Street were left idling, sending a steady stream of fumes down the “environmentally friendly” block. When we asked drivers why they left their vehicles idling for extended periods of time, we were told to mind our own business. City officials said they would look into that matter, too.

As for when Broad Street might open, ACHD said it should be soon, especially considering the Andersen Construction permit for the street closure expired Nov. 6.

“They’re just flat-out late,” said Quintana.

“They could be subject to increased payments for being in the public’s right-of-way, and that’s a conversation that needs to happen with our inspector. There will be some discussion over what kind of penalties they might face.”

AN UNCONVENTIONAL PARADISE At Paradise Springs Farm, a raw dairy near Victor, Idaho, Biodynamics is a way of life LE X NEL SON

L E X N E L SO N

T

he website for Paradise Springs Farm, a raw dairy set against the Tetons on the Idaho-Wyoming border, is less an advertisement for its product than a biography of its cows. The resident bull, Justin Timberlake, is caught in his profile photo with his massive head at a jaunty angle, mouth open in what is unmistakably a grin.

Weighing in at 2,400 pounds, JT is “one of the most amazing beings in the cosmos,” according to the paragraph that accompanies his photo. “He loves hugs and scratches, expects kisses, chews on your clothes and wants to just hang.”

The rest of the herd, including Glinda Good Witch, Shirley Temple, Cricket, Leila and Auntie Em, among others, are described in equally affectionate detail. Take a closer look, though, and it becomes obvious that dairy cows being treated as pets isn’t the only—or even the most —unconventional thing about Paradise Springs. Those who manage to find its unmarked drive in the network of dirt and gravel backroads outside of Victor, Idaho, will get a crash course in the Biodynamic lifestyle, which has led dairy farmers Mike Reid and Tibby Plasse to give up sugar and caffeine, bury cow horns filled with ground crystals and produce the Grade A raw milk, whey and cheese that prompted the Cornucopia Institute, an organic watchdog group, to name Paradise Springs Farm among the top 10 organic dairy farms in nation.

“Paradise Springs would be what we consider true organic,” said Marie Burcham, J.D., the general focus livestock policy

analyst for the institute. “They have both the spirit and the letter of the law, let’s say. It’s not just trying to meet minimum benchmarks...They’re going above and beyond with their practices.

With their superb grazing, their treatment of their animals, their dedication to organic. That’s why they’re top rated.”

On their 420-acre farm, Reid and Plasse run an operation that has little in common with a conventional dairy: certified both organic and Biodynamic, they raise a dozen Brown Swiss cows on 190 acres of prime mountain pasture, grow all of their feed on the farm and deliver raw milk, whey and cheese to roughly 85 families in the local community on a route Reid drives himself. Their cheese is also available online, and as of 2009, Paradise Springs Farm was the first legal raw milk dairy in Idaho under the Idaho Raw Milk Ordinance, snagging permit No. 001.

Yet driving up to the farm, it’s hard to tell it’s a dairy operation at all, let alone an acclaimed one—the largest building on the property is the family home, and the air is crisp and clean, with no manure smell to speak of. According to Reid, this is largely due to the diet he feeds his cows, and the standards of cleanliness the farm must meet to retain its Grade A rating.

“There are milk inspectors here at our place more than any other place in the state because we have a cheese plant, a bottling plant and a dairy farm, and we’re raw,” Reid said. “So we take a lot of time to make sure that everything is spot on so when BOISE WEEKLY.COM

L E X N E L SON

On Mondays and Fridays, Mike Reid bottles raw milk on his family dairy farm.

the inspections happen, because you never know when that might be, we never have a problem.”

Reid, who once studied botany and microbiology at Colorado State University, now spends his Monday and Friday afternoons in the bottling room, a sheet metal and concrete construction dominated by the growl and hum of machinery, decanting raw milk into glass bottles. On one windy afternoon in mid-October, he multi-tasked, slotting full bottles into coolers while he held forth on what it means to practice Biodynamics, a style of farming (and living) that takes organic one step further. By feeding his cows entirely on pasture and home-grown grains, and never using any kind of pesticides, herbicides or antibiotics, Reid said he’s able to sell raw milk and cheese with its “fat-soluble vitamins” intact. He also uses “homeopathic crop preparations” laid out by the founders of the movement, Drs. Weston A. Price and Rudolph Steiner.

“There’s preparation 500, [which is] cow manure that’s been buried in a cow horn over the winter to absorb all these cosmic forces that the earth is sucking in during the winter, as Dr. Steiner would say,” Reid said. “...You use a quarter cup of this horn manure and it get stirred into a vortex back and forth for an hour. Then it’s what they call ‘dynamized’ after you stir it. So the cow horn acts as a radio receiver would, it’s absorbing these...energies that are coming in from all over the place and it’s acting as a receiver to transfer these energies into the manure…[when] it comes out, it’s the most humusy-smelling, energetically charged fertilizer that you’ll ever smell. We use a quarter cup per acre.”

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Preparation 501 is the counterbalance, requiring “quartz crystals ground into a fine dust. You bury that in the summer in a horn, so you get the summer light forces into these tiny little pieces of crystal, and then a pea-sized amount is what we apply to an acre,” said Reid.

“It takes years to see the effects, but you can see them,” he added. “From a scientific standpoint, you find more microbes, more worms, the soil takes on a totally different texture that’s like it’s been through the stomach of a worm five times.”

Plasse, standing in the doorway, chimed in.

“Food is not supposed to be stomach filler, it’s supposed to nourish the mind, body and spirit...

All of the energy is circular. So if you’re giving your cow your best possible feed she in turn is going to give the best possible milk and you’re going to get the best possible nutrients.”

The Biodynamic lifestyle is practiced at Paradise Springs with a faith akin to religion, although what’s holy isn’t a supernatural force—it’s simply good food. Their bible, which Plasse and Reid referred to repeatedly as “the book,” is Nutrition and Physical Degeneration by Weston A. Price, a guide to “holistic dentistry” that details the connection between diet and dental health, comparing the perfect smiles, healthy bodies and broad faces of natives without toothbrushes to the crooked teeth and malnutrition of city-dwelling westerners. In addition to practicing what they preach, Plasse and Reid lead a local chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation, one of four in the state and hundreds worldwide.

“All this voodoo that we do with burying a horn, burying manure in a hole, burying crystal,

The Mahogany Ridge Alps Style, one of three types of raw cheese produced at Paradise Springs Farm, retails online at $30 per pound.

all of the stuff, it seems like witchcraft more than farming at some points, but in fact it’s simply practical,” Reid said. “Because here you have something that you have on your own farm—a cow horn and cow manure—and you can transform your entire place and essentially, what we all say in Biodynamics is that we’re out here healing the earth.”

Out in the pasture, where snow whipped down from cloud banks hovering over the Tetons, were the dozen or so cows that reap the benefits of the Biodynamic philosophy. The cattle came when called, each one responding to its name by trotting up to the couple, nosing at their clothes and licking their hands and ears. The cows are all extended family, tracing their lineage back to two cows Reid purchased from a Biodynamic dairy in Montana when he first started Paradise Springs in 2001 as a way to “heal” himself after years of struggling with celiac disease.

“I love my cows, I want them to be as healthy as possible, they’re my friends,” said Reid, scratching JT, whose massive head was the nearly size of Reid’s whole torso, under the chin.

“Milking is the glory time for us,” he added.

“Basically we do all this hard work to get all the crops and pasture and all this stuff together for them, and the reward is the milking, the reward is the time spent with your friends. Of course when you do something twice a day for 365 straight days it can get dreary at times, but it’s never as dreary as going and sitting in an office or working on an assembly line.”

In the past, Reid has had streaks of more than 1,500 milkings in a row; just last month, he took

his first days off in over three years to attend a good friend’s wedding. As a Grade A dairy, the cows must be milked with machines rather than by hand, but Reid has never stopped giving them the personal touch, even training his tiny herd not to defecate in the milking barn.

“You just say ‘Hey, we don’t do that in here,’ and they’re like, ‘Oh, right!’ No one likes being crapped on,” Reid said with a chuckle.

Dedication to the Biodynamic lifestyle extends inside the family home as well, where Reid and Plasse are committed to practicing what they preach, and raising their son Loren—a cherubic, towheaded four year old who climbed immediately into his father’s lap—on a 100 percent Biodynamic diet that’s a sharp contrast to their own conventional upbringings.

“We’re zealots,” Plasse said, taking a seat at the wooden table that fills a corner of the family living room. “Our son has not had processed sugar, wheat, caffeine or conventional food to our knowledge yet, and he’s almost five.”

Reid nodded, adding, “When he was born we gave up all sugar, honey, maple syrup, any kind of sweeteners. There’s no caffeine, there’s nothing that’s going to affect him badly...You can already see what the Dr. Price effect is with him drinking the [raw] milk,” he said, gesturing to his son.

“He has my nose, but my nose is much narrower than his is developing, and his face is going to be much broader; he’ll have all the room he needs for his teeth, [whereas] I wore braces when I was a teenager.”

Reid and Plasse exchanged a smile. “It’s an experiment that we’re living,” Reid said.

WALK A MILE IN MY SHOES

BARBARIAN BREWING S’MORES NIGHT

DANCE FOR PARKINSON’S IDAHO FUNDRAISER

In Boise, it is extremely uncomfortable—if not dangerous—to spend extended periods outside in both summer and winter. To help raise awareness for homeless people who face sometimes extreme conditions, the Boise/Ada Homeless Coalition is hosting Walk A Mile in My Shoes, a one-mile walk to acknowledge the plight of the homeless population.

“We know it will be cold and dark, but that’s the point,” reads the coalition website. Registration is in the St. Luke’s Parking Lot at 5 p.m. (or in advance online), and the walk leaves at 5:30 p.m., finishing in the Grove Center, followed by a discussion of the issue of homelessness, the people it affects and the resources available.

Take the first step toward a solution with your $10 registration fee.

Registration: 5 p.m., walk: 5:30 p.m., $10. St. Luke’s parking lot near the intersection of Americana Blvd. and Shoreline Drive, homelesscoalitionboise.com.

If there is anything better than s’mores around a campfire in the summer, it’s s’mores around a firepit in the fall—with beer. Join the brewmasters at locally-owned Barbarian Brewing on Thursday, Nov. 9, for a night of all-you-can-eat s’mores, delicious snacks and good company outside their Garden City taproom. Wetos Tacos will be there rockin’ the chocolate theme with mole, tacos and burritos; and Barbarian will tap a keg of S’mores Porter firkin at 6 p.m. on the dot. Whether you’re in it for a glass of suds or to eat yourself into a graham cracker, chocolate and marshmallow-induced sugar coma, this 21 and over event is the perfect way for a group of friends to spend a Thursday night. Share the event on Facebook and you might score the opportunity to tap the firkin keg yourself.

6-9 p.m., $3. Barbarian Brewing Garden City Taproom/Brewery, 5270 E. Chinden Blvd., Garden City, 208-387-2739, barbarianbrewing.com.

A small team of local dance teachers is furthering diversity and inclusion by teaching movement classes to residents with Parkinson’s disease. Dance for Parkinson’s Idaho “brings dance, music, artistry and grace” to the Parkinson’s community with free classes designed to engage their minds and bodies. DPI depends on community support, and so is partnering with The Flicks for a fundraising event that includes a DPI performance, a Q&A and a screening of Capturing Grace, which tells the story of dancers with Parkinson’s whose lives intersect with a famous New York City dance company. A couple of sentences on the poster for Capturing Grace could be the DPI motto: “When a legendary dance company and people with Parkinson’s join forces, there are no patients.

There are only dancers.”

7 p.m., $15. The Flicks, 646 W. Fulton St., 208-342-4288. Visit theflicksboise.com or the box office for tickets.

ONE SHOT EXHIBIT OPENING In her work, Italian-born/Belgium-based artist Irina Novarese creates a “type of abstract storytelling that brings into question how we perceive and personify history, its relics and those who preserve it.” Novarese, the current artist in residence at Ming Studios, has been examining the space between fact and fiction for her upcoming exhibit, One Shot, which was sparked by a photo titled “All Female Survey Crew” that she found in a U.S. Bureau of Reclamation book. The historic 1918 shot was taken during Minidoka Project planning, and is said to be the earliest surviving photo of an all-female survey crew. In One Shot—which runs through Saturday, Jan. 20, 2018, Novarese explores the realities, impressions and speculations relating to the photo, allowing viewers to see through her eyes a little-known moment in Idaho history.

BLUES TRAVELER, NOV. 10, KNITTING FACTORY Blues Traveler has long been a name in the American music canon. In the last 30 years, the group has produced 12 albums, performed more than 2,000 shows, founded its own music festival—the now-defunct HORDE Festival—and earned multiple gold and platinum awards. Known for its chart-topping song “Run-Around,” which won the band a Grammy in 1996, Blues Traveler kept it moving, producing its most recent album, Blow Up The Moon (Loud & Proud), in 2015. Currently on tour to commemorate its 30th anniversary, Blues Travel makes a stop in Boise at the Knitting Factory on Friday, Nov. 10, in advance of its next release.

Blues Traveler has been performing its Southern, soul, psychedelic and, obviously, blues-inspired rock for decades and as anyone who loves the John Popper-led group will agree, just see the band once, and the hook will bring you back.

Boise Philharmonic presents

LIZZO, NOV. 14, KNITTING FACTORY Of all the memorable performances during Treefort Music Fest 2017, the one by hip-hop star Lizzo (Grrl Prty) was a standout: The artist and her backup dancers—dubbed “the big girls”—brought charisma and a powerful message of self-confidence to the main stage. The 29-year-old Lizzo has become a leader in the body positivity movement, perhaps best heard in the 2016 anthemic track “Good As Hell.” In her recently released singles “Truth Hurts” and “Water Me,” Lizzo’s tight rhymes are underscored by her R&B sensibility, and her Detroit, Houston and Minneapolis roots shine through. Since her Treefort performance, Lizzo’s star has continued to rise—her music was featured on the HBO series Insecure—so Boise gets to see her a second time his year, when she returns for a mid-tour show. In the meantime, check out “Truth Hurts” video on the Lizzo Music YouTube channel, and listen to her cover the Prince classic “Little Red Corvette” at soundcloud. com/lizzomusic.

HARRISON BERRY

RECREATION THE SQUEAKY WHEEL

Attorney Kurt Holzer wants to shed some light on cyclist safety HARRISON BERRY Bike commuters can sense when a car is too close, and the red Jaguar SUV that pulled up beside me on Sixth Street near China Blue was close to being too close. I was on yellow alert, ready to hit the brakes or dodge a car, when the driver of the Jaguar rolled down his window and said, “Hey, mister. I got something for you.”

I imagined turning to see him holding a baseball bat or a gun, but what he proffered looked like a huge ruby set in cardboard packaging. It was an LED bike light with the words “Bike Law” written across it. Relief rolled over me.

I’ve never owned a car, and over the years of bike commuting, I’ve saved a lot of money and kept in decent shape. The trade-off is I’m more vulnerable to road hazards and have to be sure drivers see me, but despite the muchdiscussed tensions between Boise cyclists and motorists, I don’t often have negative experiences with drivers. Ugly confrontations are rare for me, and Kurt Holzer, the driver of the Jaguar, said it’s the same for him.

“I’ve had a few confrontations where you just shake your head, but for the most part, motorists are very attuned, attempting to get out of the way,” Holzer said. “It’s easy to talk about the confrontation, but the vast majority of motorists are accepting of and dealing with cyclists just fine.”

It didn’t take much digging to identify Holzer as my bike light benefactor. I put a photo of the Bike Law “blinky” on Instagram, and a mutual friend connected us. Holzer, a local attorney who specializes in the law as it applies to cyclists, is also the race announcer for the Twilight Criterium and a former race organizer. As an avid cyclist, he travels by bike around the same distance he drives each year: approximately 8,000 miles.

Holzer bought a box of the Bike Law lights two months ago and has handed out more than 40 so far. Giving them away may “not be the greatest economic investment,” but the blinkies, which he gets at cost for $5, actually 16 | NOVEMBER 8–14, 2017 | BOISEweekly

Local attorney Kurt Holzer has been handing out Bike Law “blinky” lights to cyclists.

make cyclists safer. He got the idea from a fellow member of Bike Law, a loose network of lawyers around the country who share resources and discuss advocacy.

“You just hand them out and try to enhance safety,” Holzer said. “One less cyclist hit is a huge improvement in somebody’s life.”

The “Idaho Stop” law, which allows riders to yield at stop signs, is an important source of tension between cyclists and motorists, and is also one of the things that makes cycling laws in Idaho unique. It has been on the books in the Gem State for decades but Delaware became the first state to implement something similar late last month. Proponents argue it makes cyclists safer by acknowledging how people actually use roads, while critics say it creates confusion and discord by establishing different rules for different users.

The Idaho Stop lets cyclists use their judgment, and a similar principle could guide bike-friendly laws for motorists. Holzer gave the example of a car trying to pass a cyclist while in a lane with a double yellow line.

Allowing the motorist latitude to cross the yellow line would make passing the cyclist less about obeying the law and more about safety and judgment.

“It’s the opportunity for that road user to use discretion and reason,” Holzer said. “Motorists … perceive the risk to the cyclist, and one of their reactions comes from their fear of being responsible for causing injury.”

Roads are in the center divide of any discussion about cycling, and in Boise, that conversation always involves the Ada County Highway District. Over the years, ACHD and the city have worked to make roads more bike friendly, but history is mixed when it comes to bicycle infrastructure.

A pilot project in the spring of 2014 to put buffered bike lanes on Main and Idaho streets was scrapped ahead of schedule to the chagrin of local advocates, commuters and the Boise City Council. More recently, ACHD ran afoul of bike commuters when it waffled on transitioning Fifth and Sixth streets downtown into two-way streets, which would slow vehicle traffic. ACHD commissioners eventually voted in favor of the change, which is expected to take place when the roads are resurfaced in 2019.

ACHD has also allowed a bike lane on Capitol Boulevard to remain and has made numerous minor improvements in neighborhoods and on thoroughfares to make them safer for all road users. Holzer sees the road authority as “a pretty remarkable organization” that responds to cyclists.

“There are people within [ACHD] that are cycling-oriented. We’re not going to get all that great cycling infrastructure immediately,” he said. “I think I’m in the minority that thinks the ACHD is improving over time. It’s far from perfect, but anybody who thinks any government is ever perfect is living in a fantasy land. There are too many people pushing.”

BEERGUZZLER DUVEL TRIFECTA Craft breweries are being swallowed by the big boys on a daily basis. Most are traditional buy-outs, but Belgium-based Duvel Moortgat has taken a different tact. A family owned brewery since 1871, Duvel has formed partnerships, investing in a few like-minded American breweries, like Firestone Walker Brewing Co. and Brewery Ommegang, which has provided them an opportunity to expand without being tied down by debt. Here are three outstanding brews from the new Duvel line-up: DUVEL TRIPEL HOP CITRA, $4.19-$4.89 After a short absence, Duvel is back in our market. This innovative brew blends traditional Saaz and Styrian Golding hops with Yakima Valley Citra hops, the later of which adds a big hit of resiny citrus to the tropical fruit, spice and herb aromas.

It’s a golden brew with a pillowy head, creamy fruit and sweet malt flavors, a nice hop bite and a smooth, dry finish.

FIRESTONE LEO V. URSUS: INFEROS, $3.99$4.49 A thick froth tops this light chestnut-colored pour that opens with spicy sassafras backed by touches of pine-laced hops and fruity malt.

Toasted malt comes through on the palate, along with firm hops and a healthy dose of rye bread. It’s a great choice for cooler autumn weather.

OMMEGANG THREE PHILOSOPHERS, $4.49$4.99 A dark ebony in the glass, this one is topped by a two-finger head. It blends the Ommegang Quadrupel with 2 percent Liefmans Kriek and despite the small amount, the cherry component of the Liefmans really comes through both on the nose and in the mouth.

This brew offers spicy plum aromas, along with slightly boozy malt and chocolate on the palate.

It’s delicious.

The success of locally made Doctor Who fan film inspires sequel GEORGE PRENTICE The adventure of making a Boise-based Doctor Who fan film has all the elements of any good story: what, when, where and, of course, who.

The “what” is Doctor Who Velocity, a 10-minute fan film written by and starring Boise comedienne/actress Krystal Moore and directed by her partner Chris Phillips. The short film has already tallied more than 26,000 online views.

The “when” was two years ago. Twelve male actors have portrayed the time traveler on British television since 1963, and Moore thought a female Doctor was long overdue.

“By now, the world knows the BBC recently cast British actress Jodie Whittaker to take over the role of The Doctor at the end of this December’s Doctor Who Christmas Special,” said Phillips.

“But, my girlfriend Krystal actually started writing our fan film with a female playing The Doctor quite some time ago. Our fan film, with the female Doctor, is rather successful [based on] the response.”

The “where” is here. Doctor Who Velocity was shot entirely in and around Boise.

“Earlier this year, we shot scenes in the Foothills, the North End, Esther Simplot Park

and downtown Boise,” said Phillips. “If you think of it, we had everything we needed within five minutes: a city, a river, mountains and deserts.”

Finding locations wasn’t a challenge, but finding a life-size Time And Relative Dimension In Space replica—a.k.a. TARDIS—was.

“That was our biggest question,” said Phillips.

“I went to the Reddit website and asked, “Has anyone seen a TARDIS in Boise?’ It turned out that Re-POP has a brilliant, full-size 100-percent replica of the TARDIS sitting in the middle of the store,” said Phillips. “The owners were lovely, and they let us shoot some key scenes in the store.”

A native of Britain, Phillips worked extensively for MTV before settling in Boise.

“Pimp My Ride, Jersey Shore, MTV News—you name it, and I did [it] for MTV,” said Phillips, who now works full-time for SOVRN, an advertising agency in Boise. “We produce spots for the City of Boise, St. Luke’s Hospital, a lot of big clients. During the 2016 presidential election, I also

created a lot of animations of [President] Donald Trump for The Guardian newspaper’s website.”

The “who” in Doctor Who Velocity, is the local cast, which includes Phillips, Moore as The Doctor, Jen Potcher as a 16th century witch, Chance Fuerstinger as a bumbling assistant and cast members Scott Grady, Paycen McGahey and Dylan Wood.

“We couldn’t be happier with the response to the first episode. Krystal already wrote a second episode and, with any luck, we’ll produce even more,” said Phillips, who added that filming is already underway with episode two. First though, the cast and crew want to celebrate the success of the first film, so Re-POP is hosting a Dr. Who Velocity party Saturday, Nov. 18 from 5-8 p.m. The celebration is free and open to the public, and partygoers, who are encouraged to dress as their favorite Doctor Who or other sci-fi characters, can rub elbows with the cast and crew, and get their picture taken with the TARDIS.

SCREEN EXTRA COLOSSAL CINEMATIC SHOWCASE

STARTS FRIDAY, NOV. 10th 18 | NOVEMBER 8–14, 2017 | BOISEweekly

The rise of online streaming has been good for independent films, but it has also meant fewer of them open in theaters, so casts and crews may never experience the razzle-dazzle of a movie premiere.

The Colossal Cinematic Showcase, a biannual film festival, aims to keep the tradition of big film openings alive by rolling out the red carpet, firing up the projector and screening

to provide filmmakers—especially the local films. Now in its second year, cast and crew and their families—an the next CCS will be at the Country opportunity to feel like stars.

Dennis said the showcase doesn’t highlight any particular genre of film, and the 2017 movies range from comedic and heartfelt to weighty and profound. Plus, many of the films feature music by local artists, such as Hollow Wood and Hillfolk Noir.

“We’ll have a red carpet and photographer there, too,” Dennis added.

“People can get a little dressed up and have [their] picture taken.

CITIZEN REZA ASLAN

609 W MAIN ST

The author, scholar and television personality talks religion, The Leftovers and Donald Trump

every Thursday PE TER KONERKO

HARRISON BERRY

In the biblical Book of Genesis, God fashions humans in His own image. In his new book, God: A Human History, Reza Aslan argues it’s the other way around: Over the millennia, people have embodied the divine with human attributes—a tendency that has crept even into religions in which God is formless.

Books are just one of the ways Alsan shares his ideas. He was a producer of the CNN program Believer (which was cancelled when Aslan criticized President Donald Trump over Twitter), the host of Rough Draft with Reza Aslan on the Ovation network and a consulting producer on the second and third seasons of the acclaimed HBO drama The Leftovers. Currently, Aslan is working on two movies, including one based on his bestselling book, Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, and The Cabin is bringing him to Boise as part of its Readings and Conversations series Friday, Nov. 17.

What’s so controversial about saying people made God in their own image?

As you can imagine, that has had some very obvious negative consequences because when we foist our own compulsions upon the divine, we divinize those compulsions. We make ourselves the mirror of who God is and what God wants, who God loves and who God hates.

That, more than anything else, explains why we see such tremendous religious conflict around the world.

God: A Human History describes how religions evolve.

Religions are in a constant state of evolution; all religions constantly adapt to the environment in which they find themselves. As long as there is progress [in] society, there will always be those who feel in one way or another left behind by that progress, and will react against that progress by reverting to the fundamentals of their faith. With that comes the inevitable consequence of fundamentalism.

What did you do as a consulting producer on The Leftovers?

I came onboard in the second season. I [worked] with Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta, the creators. My job on the show [was] BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Classic 80s & OTHER PRE-2K MUSIC 80s cocktails at Brat pack prices

to craft the story and to craft the messages.

I helped them recognize Kevin Garvey as a shaman character and encouraged them to have Kevin die and come back, because that’s what every shaman has to do … In the third season I came up with a lot of the ideas about aboriginal song traditions.

How do you land a gig like that?

Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta put together a very interesting but ultimately not super successful first season of that show, and when it was time to rebrand it and do a second season, [Lindelof ] sat me down and asked what the show was about. I gave him my thesis on the show, and when that conversation was over, I think he thought, “That’s it. I want you to work on this show.” It’s one of the things I’m most proud of. It’s a remarkable show.

Those second and third seasons are some of the best seasons of television ever produced.

“Our philosophy is not to shame or blame. You are not responsible for your disease but you are responsible for your recovery.”

Medical Consulting Services (208) 514-0518

What are the two films you have in the works?

The [first] film is based on Zealot, my previous book. That is being produced by David Heyman, who’s famous for having produced all the Harry Potter movies and Gravity. The script is co-written by myself and James Schamus, Oscar-nominated for Brokeback Mountain. The second is an original project of One Thousand and One Nights with Lionsgate.

What is your take on the president?

I called him “a piece of shit” on Twitter because of his outrageous and despicable response to the London terror attacks. I have said that I regret the choice of words that I used, mainly because I don’t allow my children to swear. What I should have said is that the president of the United States is a pathological liar, a narcissistic sociopath, a racist, a misogynist [and] a confessed sexual predator who seems to not just lack human empathy, but is prone to negative empathy—who seems to actually delight in the suffering of others.

I should have said he’s a national embarrassment. For our own sake, for our national security, we should remove this man from the presidency with all haste.

#boiseweeklypic

FIND

$GYLFH IRU WKRVH RQ WKH YHUJH FORGIVENESS DEAR MINERVA, I have recently been wronged very deeply. It has involved a horrible rumor that has caused a lot of hurt not only to myself, but to others. I’ve processed the part of it that has hurt me, I’ve overcome the fact that it has happened and I feel like I’m in a good place. I’ve moved on with my life. In the process, the person who caused this whole mess has said that I should be a more tolerant and accepting person of the situation. Before I throw a dictionary at this person so they can learn the definitions of these words, what would you do?

Sincerely, Forgiving but not Forgetting

DEAR FF, Forgiveness, which I think is imperative to one’s emotional well being, is not the same as forgetting. Forgiveness doesn’t wipe the slate clean. Forgiveness does not suddenly alter the behavior that one is willing to tolerate and/or accept. Rumors are vile things, which cause very real—even life-altering and -ruining—consequences. Forgiveness is the acceptance that something has happened and one cannot change that. It’s a conscious choice to not live in the past. Forgiveness is far more about one’s own well-being and happiness than about the perpetrator. Some people never “get it” when it comes to forgiveness. Some people never realize that forgiving them of a transgression is not the same as condoning their behavior. Remember that this person showed you who they really are. They have to live with that. You’ve already won.

At last, when they were 82, they celebrated their wedding and pledged their vows to each other. Are there comparable situations in your life, Aries? The coming months will be a favorable time to make deeper commitments. At least some of your reasons for harboring ambivalence will become irrelevant. You’ll grow in your ability to thrive on the creative challenges that come from intriguing collaborations and highly focused togetherness.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): I had pimples when I was a teenager. They’re gone now, although I still have a few pockmarks on my face as souvenirs. In retrospect, I feel gratitude for them. They ensured that in my early years of dating and seeking romance, I would never be attract women solely on the basis of my physical appearance. I was compelled to cultivate a wide variety of masculine wiles. I swear at least half of my motivation to get smarter and become a good listener came from my desire for love. Do you have comparable stories to tell, Taurus? Now is an excellent time to give thanks for what once may have seemed to be a liability or problem.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The next two weeks will be one of the best times to ask provocative, probing questions. In fact, I invite you to be as curious and receptive as you’ve been since you were four years old. When you talk with people, express curiosity more often than you make assertions.

Be focused on finding out what you’ve been missing, what you’ve been numb to. When you wake up each morning, use a felt-tip marker to draw a question mark on your forearm. To get you in the mood for this fun project, here are sample queries from poet Pablo Neruda’s Book of Questions: “Who ordered me to tear down the doors of my own pride? Did I finally find myself in the place where they lost me?

Whom can I ask what I came to make happen in this world? Is it true our desires must be watered with dew? What did the rubies say standing before the juice of the pomegranates?”

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Things to say when in love,” according to Zimbabwe poet Tapiwa Mugabe: “I will put the galaxy in your hair. Your kisses are a mouthful of firewater. I have never seen a more beautiful horizon than when you close your eyes. I have never seen a more beautiful dawn than when you open your eyes.”

I hope these words inspire you to improvise further outpourings of

adoration. You’re in a phase when expressing your sweet reverence and tender respect for the people you care about will boost your physical health, your emotional wealth and your spiritual resilience.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Are you working on solving the right problem? Or are you being distracted by a lesser dilemma, perhaps consumed in dealing with an issue that’s mostly irrelevant to your long-term goals? I don’t know the answers to those questions, but I am quite sure it’s important you meditate on them. Everything good that can unfold for you in 2018 will require you to focus on what matters most—and not get sidetracked by peripheral issues or vague wishes. Now is an excellent time to set your unshakable intentions.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Every one of us experiences loneliness. We all go through periods when we feel isolated and misunderstood and unappreciated. That’s the bad news, Virgo. The good news is that the coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to make loneliness less of a problem. I urge you to brainstorm and meditate about how to do that. Here are some crazy ideas to get you started: 1. Nurture ongoing connections with the spirits of beloved people who have died. 2.

Imagine having conversations with your guardian angel or spirit guide.

3. Make a deal with a “partner in loneliness”—a person you pray or sing with whenever either of you feels bereft. 4. Write messages to your Future Self or Past Self. 5.

Communicate with animals.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): As a courtesy to your mental health, I minimize your exposure to meaningless trivia. In fact, I generally try to keep you focused instead on enlightening explorations but in this horoscope, in accordance with astrological omens, I’m giving you a temporary, short-term license to go slumming. What shenanigans is your ex up to lately, anyway?

Would your old friend, the bankrupt coke addict, like to party with you?

Just for laughs, should you revisit the dead-end fantasy that always makes you crazy? There is a good possibility that exposing yourself to bad influences like those I just named could have a tonic effect on you, Sagittarius. You might get so thoroughly disgusted by them that you’ll never again allow them to corrupt your devotion to the righteous groove, to the path with heart.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In the coming months it will be crucial to monitor the effects you’re having on the world. Your actions will rarely be merely personal; they may have consequences for people you don’t know as well as those you’re close to. The ripples you send out in all directions won’t always look dramatic, but you shouldn’t let that delude you about the influence you’re having. If I had to give 2018 a title with you in mind, it might be “The Year of Maximum Social Impact.” And it all starts soon.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The drive for absolute perfection could undermine your ability to create what’s good and just right.

Please don’t make that mistake in the coming weeks. Likewise, refrain from demanding utter purity, pristine precision or immaculate virtue.

To learn the lessons you need to know and launch the trends you can capitalize on in 2018, all that’s necessary is to give your best. You don’t have to hit the bull’s-eye with every arrow you shoot—or even any arrow you shoot. Simply hitting the target will be fine in the early going.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The punk ethic is rebellious. It transgresses conventional wisdom through “a cynical absurdity that’s redeemed by being hilarious.”

So says author Brian Doherty. In the hippie approach, on the other hand, the prevailing belief is “love is all you need.” It seeks a “manic togetherness and all-encompassing acceptance that are all sweet and no sour—inspiring but also soft and gelatinous.” Ah, but what happens when punk and hippie merge?

Doherty says each moderates the extreme of the other, yielding a tough-minded lust for life that’s both skeptical and celebratory. I bring this to your attention, Aquarius, because the punk-plus-hippie blend is a perfect attitude for you to cultivate in the coming weeks.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Remember the time, all those years ago, when the angels appeared to you on the playground and showed you how and why to kiss the sky?

I predict a comparable visitation will arrive soon. Do you recall the dreamy sequence in adolescence when you first plumbed the sublime mysteries of sex? You’re as ripe as you were then, primed to unlock more of nature’s wild secrets.

Maybe at no other time in many years, in fact, have you been in so favorable a position to explore paradise right here on Earth.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I’m falling in love with the way you have been falling in love with exciting possibilities you once thought were impossible. Oh, baby. Please go further. Thrilling chills surge through me whenever you get that ravenous glint in your mind’s eye.

I can almost hear you thinking, “Maybe those dreams aren’t so impossible, after all. Maybe I can heal myself and change myself enough to pursue them in earnest.

Maybe I can learn success strategies that were previously beyond my power to imagine.”
