EDITOR’S NOTE LET THEM EAT CAKE Along with correcting visitors when they mispronounce Boise—”It’s boy-SEE, not boy-ZEE”— locals have been known to repeat a folksy little aphorism when someone unfamiliar with this region comments on the weather: “Well, as we like to say, ‘If you don’t like it today, just wait until tomorrow!’” It’s our rather charming way of telling a newcomer about something we locals are used to: a fluctuating (sometimes wildly) climate. It isn’t as common an occurrence as it used to be, but it still isn’t unheard of to close the door on a sweltering summer evening, only to open it the next morning and find it’s a blustery, wind-strongenough-to-send-Piglet-flying kind of day.

Still, the past weeks of 40-, 50-, and 60-degree days have been surprising, but easy to become accustomed to—which has made the past couple of days of near normal temps seem so out of the ordinary. We get used to something, and it can take some time to change. But adjust we must. (Oooh, that would make a great bumper sticker.) The same is true in politics, although I don’t mean it in the way you might think... It’s time for the old guard to step down. Those who are in office for personal gain, for money and power, need to be replaced by people who aren’t yet “politicians.” We need leaders with new and better ideas—and ideals. We need lawmakers who want to make their world a better place, not stand by the status quo. I know change can be scary, but we’re in this together. Plus, if things don’t work out, we’ll change them again.

There’s another little saying we have around here (that I just made up): “If you don’t like it today, be willing to make a change.

Otherwise, like the weather, there’s nothing you can do about it, so shut your cake-hole.”

Protestors stacked 183 symbollic coffins on the steps of the Idaho Capitol on Feb. 19.

CASKETS ON STATEHOUSE STEPS UNDERLINE IDAHO FAITH-HEALING DEBATE

It’s not as though both sides of the issue didn’t know it was coming. Still, the sight of around 100 protesters carrying tiny wooden coffins up Capitol Boulevard on Feb. 19 was unsettling. When the emblematic procession reached the steps of the Statehouse, a U-Haul truck pulled up behind them and dozens more coffins were unloaded. In total, 183 coffins were stacked on the steps, each representing an Idaho infant, child or teen that, according to nonprofit organization Protect Idaho Kids, has died since faithhealing exemptions were enacted in Idaho in the 1970s. According to its website, Protect Idaho Kids is “conducting an extensive campaign called ‘Let Them Live’ to raise awareness of the need to repeal Idaho’s religious exemptions.”

Willie Hughes, a local truck driver, looked at the coffin bearing the name of his brother Steven, who died of bronchial pneumonia at age 3. Hughes and his family were members of Followers of Christ, a church that practices faith healing and believes death and illness are the will of God. “My brother Steven was born with spina bifida. Our parents never took Steven to a doctor,” said Hughes. “Steven got very sick when he was three, and the elders prayed and rubbed olive oil on him. He passed away that night.”

Canyon County Sheriff Kieran Donahue is familiar with the Followers. The church has one of its strongest followings in his county.

“Adults should be held criminally liable when they fail to seek medical help for seriously ailing children,” Donahue told the gathering, which attracted the media and more than a few curious bystanders. However, inside the Idaho Statehouse, there has been no movement on a proposed piece of legislation, drafted by Rep. John Gannon (D-Boise), to revoke the exemptions.

“We’ll continue to fight. This is not going to go away until the legislature does its duty and repeals these laws,” said Protect Idaho Kids founder Bruce Wingate after the protest. “We can, and we will prevail.”

PAULETTE JORDAN’S HISTORIC RIDE

The Idaho gubernatorial candidate talks politics, basketball and Cher GEORGE PRENTICE Paulette Jordan hesitates when asked if her bid to be Idaho’s next governor is written in the stars, but even a casual observer can see her candidacy will be written in history books. For one, she could be the first female governor of Idaho and the first Democrat in a generation. Then, there’s the heady prospect of Jordan, a citizen of the Coeur d’Alene Tribe, being the first Native American governor in the United States. Her decision to run came during a political year in which a record number of women have decided to seek higher offices all across America, aiming to fix broken systems traditionally dominated by men. Only a fool would marginalize Jordan’s gubernatorial run.

“I’ve actually had some very powerful men in my life who said, ‘You’re never to think of yourself as either a man or a woman. You’re always to think of yourself as a leader. That’s just the way it is.’ I was raised to be in the front, having the courage from the onset and always willing to take the arrows,” said Jordan.

Her great-great grandfathers are American legends: Chief Moses of the Sinkiuse-Columbia tribe and Chief Kamiakin of the Yakama, Palouse and Klickitat tribes. She also happens to be the daughter of Michael Jordan. Not that Michael Jordan: Although her father is not the Chicago Bulls’ renowned player, he did have a short-lived professional basketball career, so it wasn’t a huge surprise to discover his daughter faced off against men on the court.

“They would say, ‘You play like a boy.’ Then they said, ‘You play like a man,’” she said. “It turns out that it really helped me go through high school and college.”

Jordan, who stands 6 feet tall, attended Washington State University on a basketball scholarship. She began serving in the court of public opinion, too, as a co-chair for the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians; and as a finance chair, energy initiative chair and senior executive board representative of the National Indian Gaming Association. Jordan was first elected in 2014 to

Idaho gubernatorial candidate Paulette Jordan: “People say, ‘The world is political. You’re born political,’ but I promise you I don’t sit around talking politics all day in terms of being a Republican or Democrat.”

represent District 5 (in north central Idaho) in the Idaho Legislature. Though she was re-elected twice, she doesn’t think she’s a typical politician.

“People say, ‘The world is political. You’re born political,’ but I can promise you I don’t sit around talking politics all day in terms of being a Republican or Democrat,” Jordan said. “When you grow up in rural Idaho, it’s based on values, not politics.” She concedes that her opponents may call her a “liberal Democrat,” but she doesn’t mind. “Call me whatever you want to call me.”

Starting in 2013 and continuing in ’14, ’15 and ’16, political power brokers tried to convince Jordan to consider a run for Congress. Her answers were, in order, “It’s not a good time,” “No way,” “Nope,” and “Still not interested.”

It wasn’t until March 2017, when Jordan was a guest speaker at a forum in Brussels, Belgium, attended by heads of state and North American and European corporate and intellectual elite that someone encouraged her to consider running for governor.

“She told me we send too many people to Congress; but if you’re governor, you can make a bigger impact, not just on your state or nation, but the world,” said Jordan. On Dec. 7, 2017, her 38th birthday, Jordan announced her 2018 gubernatorial candidacy Jordan will go up against fellow Democrat A.J. Balukoff—who made an unsuccessful bid for governor in 2014—in a May 15 primary to decide

who makes it to the November general election.

“Running for office is much different than being a leader,” said Jordan. “That said, I have nothing but nice things to say about A.J. The few times I’ve met him, he’s been a gentleman. I wouldn’t say anything negative, but I would say we have different perspectives that will, no doubt, be hashed out in debates.”

Then there’s that Cher moment. A photo of Jordan and the iconic singer/actress [inset] was splashed on the front pages of newspapers across the nation when Cher endorsed Jordan during the 2018 Women’s March in Las Vegas.

“I was invited to speak at the event and somebody said, ‘Cher wants to meet you.’ I was surprised as anybody,” said Jordan. “She was kind. She asked how things were going with my campaign, and we had a great conversation.”

Minutes later, Cher told the world what she thought of Jordan, tweeting out, “Idaho needs a sensible Dem instead of clueless GOP governors like we have been stuck with.”

Clueless? Not likely. But even a casual observer might describe her political opponents as “Formidable.”

“People ak if this campaign could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. I expect it’s more like millions,” said Jordan. “But am I up for it?

Absolutely. The key to this election will be those Idaho voters who have been forgotten. They’ll be the ones who will decide who our next governor is.”

On Jan. 12, The Gem Center for the Arts opened its doors in Boise, offering classes, workshops and studio space to local artists.

One group that took the nonprofit up on its offer was Fringe, a new theatrical production company that debuted its first show there on Valentine’s Day. Droppin’ Johns by Ilana Lydia follows CatGirl (Zoe Kelly), a woman “trapped in her own mind, where her self-perceived heroism allows her to incapacitate the Johns who visit her.” Much of the dialogue is written by the actor, who, as Lydia puts it, “shapes the content based on her own life experiences,” so each performance is unique. These unusual choices may become the trademark for Fringe, which aims to “facilitate the voices of the disenfranchised and to secure a place in [the] community for their stories.”

Boise is becoming more of a bike town by the day, so it’s no wonder the Portland, Oregon-based film festival Filmed by Bike expects a healthy turnout in the City of Trees. The festival, which offers a slate of more than 20 short bike-centric films broken down into two parts, “Bike Love” and “Adventure Shorts,” has been doing wheelies across the country since its inception in 2003. The films on offer come from around the globe, and include animations, documentaries and everything in between; Plus, a raffle and libations will be on offer to spice up the party. If watching skiers pedaling heavily laden bikes through the Norwegian mountains (“Pedals to Peaks”) sounds right up your alley, Filmed by Bike has a seat saved for you.

Browsing Lavinia Roberts’ website is a bit like crossing into another world. Photos of her art show children lofting torso-sized paper hands, fashion models in gold masks and trees growing out of suitcases. For her month as artist-in-residence at Surel’s Place, however, Roberts focused on her other passion: writing plays as magical as her “wearable sculptures” that have been produced in more than 30 cities nationwide. Roberts’ latest work, Black Triangle, is about a lawyer on the hunt for “self-definition, as well as ghosts,” who delves into the history of the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire, and will debut at Visual Arts Collective in partnership with the Alley Repertory Theater series “The Age of Women.”

On Memorial Day of last year, Eagle attorney Jon Hill suffered a massive stroke at his home.

But thankfully his intellect remained intact and day by day he is regaining his lost abilities with a lot of hard work, devoted therapists, incredible friends and family, and a strong desire to return to normal activity.

The 1996 film Romeo + Juliet, which starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes and was set in the modern (albeit fictional) suburb of Verona Beach, is a great example of the timeless and mutable nature of William Shakespeare’s work. An example of how influential the Bard continues to be will come a little closer to home when the Boise Philharmonic presents “Romeos and Juliets by Prokofiev and Tchaikovsky,” a night of orchestral music showcasing three different Romeo and Juliet-inspired love songs: Sergei Prokofiev’s “Romeo and Juliet Suite No. 2,” Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s “Romeo and Juliet Overture-Fantasy” and, on the more contemporary side, Leonard Bernstein’s “West Side Story: Symphonic Dances.” If you’re too busy Saturday, Feb. 24, to fit in Shakespeare, catch the show Friday, Feb. 23, at the Northwest Nazarene University Brandt Center in Nampa and listen to the Bard as he’s never been heard before.

SISTERS IN SONGWRITING, SAPPHIRE ROOM, FEB. 25

The Women’s March on Washington, D.C., last year was female empowerment on a big scale. But what about female empowerment on a small scale? If you’re pro-women and also pro-music, the most recent installment of the Sisters in Songwriting Series, offered by the Idaho Songwriters Association, might be just the thing to brighten up a long winter night. The brainchild of local country songwriter Brook Faulk, the series is intended to “support women and their craft as they network, collaborate and celebrate each other through music,” and its Sunday, Feb. 25 show will highlight four Idaho musicians performing original songs in the round. The four ladies taking the stage include a duo: Rebecca Scott and Debbie Sager, who have shared the spotlight playing acoustic folk/ rock since 1995, will sing alongside Peggy Jordan and Mel Wade, who specialize in blues-infused folk music. Snag tickets online and come out to support the sisterhood.

ARTS & CULTURE SEATTLE TO ISTANBUL TO BOISE Poster exhibition at Boise State University aims to bridge cultural divides

208-985-4185 • 11000 W Fairview Ave. www.integrityfabricationandauto.com

BRIAN MILL AR Two posters hang side by side at the Boise State University Visual Arts Center. One, a concert poster by Seattle, Washington-based artist Matt Empson, features an illustration of the head and hands of rapper Tyler, the Creator surrounded by line drawings of random items (a skateboard, a stack of money, a donut, a microphone, etc.). The other, a poster by Turkish artists Ahmet Erdem Senturk, is for a ceramic workshop and shows a pair of hands—positioned much like those in Empson’s poster—surrounded by line drawings of shapes and patterns.

The posters are part of the The Seattle-Istanbul Poster Show exhibition, which features 90 posters by 60 artists from around the Northwest and Istanbul, Turkey. Co-curated by Daniel Smith of Seattle and Ardan Erguven of Istanbul, the show—which runs through Sunday, March 25— highlights the similarities between the Turkish and American posters through design elements.

“The visuals are of course a huge component,” Smith said. “There are pairings that work just beautifully because of a similar style or a similar

L-R: Posters by Matt Empson, Julia Green, Erin Ruiz and Ahmet Erdem Senturk.

color palette, but where it gets much more interesting for me, is where the content sort of relates to each other as well, so it’s not just form, but content.” Smith has also curated shows in which works by Seattle artists are paired with works by artists from Cuba, Russia and Iran.

The Seattle-Istanbul Poster Show premiered in Istanbul in 2016, but its stop at the Visual Arts Center is the first time it has been shown in the United States. After hearing about the exhibition from local artist Julia Green (whose work is part of the show), Gallery Director Kirsten Furlong approached Smith in early 2017 about bringing the exhibition to Boise.

“Things sort of started falling into place and by the time I was gonna show it here, I thought it would be overlapping at the end of the show with Treefort [Music Fest], and there can be some sort of partnership with them, so it just kind of worked out,” Furlong said.

Smith and Erguven will be at the gallery on

Thursday, March 22, to talk about the exhibition, and they will be part of a panel on Friday, March 23, at The Owyhee that will also include Green and local artist James W.A.R. Lloyd.

“We’re working with Treefort to have two musicians that will be here for the festival included on the panel,” said Furlong. “The panel is really going to be about the relationship between artists and musicians and the way they work together.”

Smith hopes people come away from the show with a feeling of connection to a culture that seems different from their own.

“I think, for one, the goal of all of these shows has been to demonstrate how similar our thinking is to countries that seem very foreign to people,” said Smith. “It’s about drawing those real human connections between where we are and ... Havana or Tehran or Istanbul, and hopefully sparking interest in these people and this place and humanizing people who are maybe on the other side of this political divide.”

CULTURE/NOISE IDAHO MUSICIANS SING IN SUPPORT OF PAULETTE JORDAN

If Paulette Jordan is elected the next governor of Idaho, the Democrat from Plummer will be the first Native American governor in U.S. history.

Competition for the job is fierce, but Jordan is a strong competitor, and her run for office has garnered attention beyond state borders.

In January, Jordan spoke at the Women’s March in Las Vegas, which earned her an endorsement from music icon Cher. Jordan said her candidacy is riding a wave of political interest that has activated young people and artists. That helped precipitate The Paulette Jordan for Governor Benefit Concert on Friday, March 16.

12 | FEBRUARY 21–27, 2018 | BOISEweekly

“I believe when you have this swell of politics interesting those in the arts, it becomes this culture of enthusiasm. I’ve seen this both in Idaho and across the country. I like that there’s a lot of younger folks that are involved,” Jordan said.

The concert will bring together Built to Spill, Eilen Jewell, Brett Netson, Nick Delffs and Tag Along Friend at the Visual Arts Collective, which became a champion of free speech after it successfully sued Idaho State Police over a section of the Idaho Code linking liquor licenses to obscenity laws.

The lineup balances Idaho bands popular outside the state with smaller acts. For Demmi Netson, an organizer of the fundraiser who is also a musician and Brett Netson’s

daughter, it’s a reflection of Jordan’s consensus-building around Idaho values. Demmi said she’s a proud Idahoan who doesn’t always feel well-represented politically. She found in Jordan a candidate in favor of expanding Medicaid, safeguarding public lands and protecting Second Amendment rights. “[Jordan] is an Idaho progressive, an Idaho Democrat,” Demmi said. “I think [she] understands the bigger picture.”

Eilen Jewell doesn’t often play fundraisers, and this will be her first time performing for the benefit of a particular political candidate. She joined the roster because she agrees with Jordan’s position on improving education—a 2017 report by the Rural School and Community Trust

showed Idaho ranked dead last in rural per-student spending in the 201516 school year, and just five states had lower salaries for instructors than Idaho. The pressure is high for public lands as well, Jewell said, after President Donald Trump slashed the size of a few national monuments in late 2017, and some Idahoans have wondered if the tack of the present administration could bring changes to the nearly 53 million acres of publicly owned land in Idaho.

“We’re sliding, or slipping, in the opposite direction [of protecting public lands], and most Idahoans, at least from what I understand, want our public lands to stay public,” Jewell said. “I think [Jordan] has our best interests in mind.”

Idaho Experience, a new IPTV series 10 years in the making, premieres Thursday, March 8

IDAH O PUBL IC TE L E VIS ION

GEORGE PRENTICE The number of new TV series competing for audiences—FX Research counted 487 new series in 2017—might lead to the conclusion some TV shows are pushed out with reckless abandon. Not so for PBS. While the public television network will produce dozens of new episodes for its Masterpiece, Nova, Great Performances and American Masters series, the broadcaster will only unveil two new series in its spring schedule: We’ll Meet Again, Civilizations and The Great American Read. When Idaho Public Television gets around to launching a new series, it’s practically historic.

“Eight years? Nine years? Let’s just say that we’ve been working on this idea for a decade,” said Jeff Tucker, IPTV director of content services. “Yes, we’ve aired a number of specials Bill Krumm, Idaho Public Television director of photography/editor, shoots footage near Grangeville for an upcoming over the years exploring some of Idaho’s hisepisode of Idaho Experience. tory.

A NEW AGE OF EATERS

Food writer Ruth Reichl on how Generation Z could repair the broken American food system LE X NEL SON

When Ruth Reichl—famed food writer, author, former Gourmet editor in chief, restaurant critic for The New York Times and the Los Angeles Times, and James Beard Award-winner six times over—stepped up to the podium at the Church of the Big Wood in Ketchum, darkness was just beginning to fall outside.

Inside, the pews were full of foodies, a group consisting mainly of middle-aged and elderly women plus a handful of men and students, all there to hear Reichl’s lecture, “Protect What We Eat.” Her talk was part of a series of events put on by the Sun Valley Center for the Arts focused on bees, the American food system and how both are being threatened, and many of her remarks centered on dysfunctional food production and consumption in the United States. Reichl finished with a spark of hope, however: the promising developments in food that are on the horizon, thanks to a new generation of eaters.

Reichl kicked off the lecture with a look back at her own life, spinning anecdotes of the early interviews, chance encounters and lifechanging reads that led to her rise as a prominent U.S. food critic. Then, she got down to the nitty gritty, reeling off a list of facts, figures and studies on obesity, food-borne illness, factory farming, fast food and more.

“While we were reveling in all this deliciousness, horrific things were going on behind the scenes,” Reichl said.

She detailed factory farming, which “treat[s] living creatures as if they’re widgets” by squeezing hundreds of cows, pigs and chickens into unsanitary warehouses, and produces lakes of manure that turn “once-lovely vistas into nightmare country.” On the obesity epidemic, she said, “while half the world goes hungry, the other half is killing itself with calories.” She reported that the average American tosses 1,250 calories into the trash per day, and that 48 million Americans—onesixth of the population—contracted food poisoning last year.

Just when the dire statistics seemed endless,

On the importance of young people “protecting what we eat,” Ruth Reichl dished up plenty of food for thought.

Reichl changed her tone.

“Okay, after all that bad news, it’s time for some good news,” she said. “The first is about our kids. If you know anyone under the age of 25, you undoubtedly know that they are the first generation of truly ethical leaders our nation has ever raised. They understand how much their food choices matter. They care about the fate of the earth, and they know that they have the means to affect it. And they are the ones who are creating the most hopeful innovations in food.”

Reichl said she is putting her money on, and her faith in, “young Silicon Valley engineers” who are pioneering new foods and ways of eating, from “meat” grown in labs to “fish” made from vegetables injected with soy sauce and other seasonings.

“Colleges and universities have become the birthplace of food trends,” Reichl said, referring to the recent movements toward meatless, local and organic eating.

“It’s time to put our elbows up on the table and stop being so darn polite,” she continued in her closing remarks. “We need to keep in mind how important our food choices are. We need to keep demanding change. We need to

go into stores, ask them where their food is coming from [and] refuse to buy the things that are made by bad companies. This is my message to you: Remember that food is more than something to eat. It is our health, the environment and our communities … We can’t look to the government to fix our broken food system, but we can certainly do it by ourselves.”

Reichl’s words were greeted by enthusiastic applause from the crowd, and feedback on the lecture was resoundingly positive, though Reichl was likely preaching to the choir. Some listeners said they were inspired to battle big food, while others left feeling assured they were already doing everything right.

Peter Curran, a local doctor, said he thought Reichl “did a great job of encapsulating important issues,” and Christine DavisJeffers, executive director of the Sun Valley Center for the Arts, was pleased with the turnout for Reichl’s appearance.

“We had a full house,” Davis-Jeffers said, smiling broadly, “It really shows the importance of a speaker like Ruth, talking about taking care of our planet. [It shows] how much people care.”

CITIZEN GAIL CHUMBLEY

Local author talks research, her movie script and discovering an untold love story NEW LOOK, SAME SMART SAVINGS

LE X NEL SON

An avid history junkie from a young age, Gail Chumbley never meant to be a writer. She spent the first half of her life clocking in 33 years as an American History teacher before retiring from Eagle High School in 2013. Along the way, she married Chad Chumbley, who, she said, told stories about his father the pilot and his mother the showgirl, which were almost too fantastical to be true. Favorite accounts included how Montgomery “Chum” Chumbley and Helen Thompson met in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where Chum sent a note backstage; the time Helen acted alongside Bela Lugosi before turning her sights to ice skating; and the day when Chum, not yet a World War II pilot, shared his cockpit with Katherine Hepburn. Eventually, Helen’s dancing career and Chum’s military service disrupted their marriage.

The stories were true, confirmed by endless boxes of photographs and papers Chad had saved and an oral history Gail conducted with her father-in-law before he passed away. While Gail found the tale of star-crossed lovers compelling, it wasn’t until Chad was diagnosed with throat cancer in 2010 that she decided share it.

Sitting at the kitchen table in her Garden Valley home, Gail opened up about the eight years of writing and research that resulted in two self-published books—River of January (2014) and River of January: Figure Eight (2016)—and a movie script. Chad, largely recovered from his cancer, sat in, and her script writing partner Ray Richmond joined the conversation by phone from Los Angeles.

Was it difficult to combine two books into one script?

Ray: Not really. It’s mostly about the second book … It’s really about their relationship and the whole backdrop [of WWII]. There’s a lot of female empowerment and disempowerment here.

And there are so many different tentacles to that, because you’ve got the meddling mother-in-law who knows best, and the problem is, she really does know best, but she’s a harridan and horrible in the way she comes across while she’s conveying it. She did know that her daughter shouldn’t be with this guy who wanted a traditional life, and that [Helen] was destined to be a great dancer.

Gail, how did you make the decision to start writing your in-laws’ love story?

Gail: I’d look at [the photos and papers] and put them back and say, “I’ve got to write this book.” I meant it, and I didn’t mean it. I knew I should, but I didn’t know how. Then Chad got so sick and nearly died—he was in the ICU for eight days. I won’t let him show you his belly, but it just ran out of real estate for all the stuff they had hooked to him … it was horrible. I didn’t know what to do with any of that. Teaching worked to a point, because that’s sort of my living room, and I could really get comfortable, but when it came right down to it, I had all this unvented anxiety and fear and just PTSD. And I knew it. I knew I was crazy, and I knew I was feeling really nuts.

When I got home at night, I was just a wreck.

So the summer he started chemo and radiation ... I was sitting up here every day going through all these letters, trying to make sense of it. [The Ray, let’s start with your role. What got you draft] was horrible, and [my editor] fired me, but I wouldn’t give up because I couldn’t. I had on board with turning Gail’s books into a no choice. I read Ron Chernow’s biography of script?

Ray: I could see [the story] on a screen when [George] Washington, and there’s a line there he used that really resonated with me. It’s “the clarity I was starting to read it. We have a pioneer of desperation.” I had the clarity of desperation. aviator, we have a dancer from the golden age of entertainment and vaudeville and, you know, my only questions when I was reading were how You ended up writing the books.

Gail: I wanted someone else to [write Chum [Helen] had managed to avoid murdering her and Helen’s story] so badly. I tried to talk a bunch mother, because I thought, this woman is just of people into doing it for me that were really a natural, wonderful villain … and why this movie wasn’t made 20 years ago. It’s got the war good writers, but it’s like, you’re going into labor and no one else is having that baby. You’re going as a backdrop, it’s got Hollywood, it’s got all to do it. No one else was going to do this. It fell of these great names in aviation, it’s got a little to me, and in a way that was wonderful, and in a bit of Amelia Earhart, a little bit of Howard Hughes. It’s like history just jumps off the page. way, it was a sentence.

B OI S E WEEKLY.C O M

What was it like transitioning from teaching to being a writer?

Gail: You hear about people who are in the military or the public service, and they retire and decide to teach. And I always thought, ‘Are they crazy? It’s hard work!’ Now, that’s rich. I go from one hard job, thinking writing would be a nice way to pass my job retired—and that’s hard work! I mean, there is no easy cheesy way to go into your retirement.

What was the research process like, going through Helen and Chum’s old papers?

Gail: The history part wasn’t hard for me.

What was hard was to give voice to Helen, to give voice to Chum. Now Chum was easier, because I interviewed him. I had like 15 hours of oral history with him, and I knew him. I didn’t know Helen [who died in 1993].

But considering what happens at the end of the books, there must have been some difficulty in talking about Helen and Chum as parents.

Gail: [Chad] didn’t have a very happy childhood in that house … I think there’s something to that, sometimes really famous people are really lousy parents. Chum and Chad ended up very close though, because he died here, he died in Boise in 2006, and Chad was there every day.

Will you ever write another book?

Gail: I’ve thought about writing a book about generals who were very jealous of each other in wartime, and how those personal quirks and jealousies impeded the war effort. Like between Henry Halleck and Ulysses S. Grant … I feel like writing is the most basic form of communication that you can share without speaking, it’s as unique as a person’s fingerprint, and I think it’s really cool to do.

And Ray, what’s next for the script?

Ray: Well, what’s next is that I have some contacts at the Hallmark Channel, and I’m trying to convince them that they don’t need to make every movie about Christmas … But I really feel good about this. If it’s a great story and it’s meant to be, and it’s got so many vivid elements to it and such great characters, it’s going to be done.

The Petition alleges substantially that Petitioners are residents of Idaho, that they are married, that their son DREGER DANIEL SCHLICHTING, a minor, wishes to change his middle name from “Daniel” to “Jrue” as the name “Daniel” is a reference to Dreger’s biological father whose parental rights have been terminated. Dreger does not wish to have any association with his biological father, including his name, as it is a reminder of a father who legally abandoned him. Further that the requested name change is not for any illegal, fraudulent, or immoral purpose, and neither Petitioners nor the minor child are requesting a change of name with the intent or purpose of avoiding registration as a convicted sexual offender pursuant to chapter 83, title 18, Idaho Code.

Such Petition will be heard on the 13th day of March, 2018 at 1:30 pm, or at such other time as the court may appoint; any objections may be filed by any person who can, in such objections, show to the court a good reason against such a change of name.

Advice for those on the verge BED DEATH

DEAR MINERVA,

I’ve been married for over 20 years. I not only love my spouse, but after all of these years, I still want my spouse in every sense of the word. The problem now, though, is that with the kids grown and gone, the sex has dried up. I still want it, and I still ask, even beg, for it. My spouse has told me the sexual part of our lives is over. I refuse to believe that. I love my spouse, but I’m not dead. I still have needs. What can I do?

Sincerely, Bed Death

DEAR BD,

This is a difficult and delicate situation. In general, people are sexual beings. It’s unrealistic to assume with age comes a forfeiture of our sex lives. If there’s an underlying issue causing the loss of desire, I suggest you consult a doctor for viable options. If this doesn’t rectify the issue, then I suggest counseling to try and reach a point of understanding. I don’t know what kind of vows you made with your spouse, but we can’t pretend sex and intimacy are not part of a fulfilling relationship. To me, any spouse who truly loves their partner would try to salvage this part of their lives and if they can’t, would want their spouse to ultimately be fulfilled. I caution you, don’t make any decisions until you have tried to work it out—together. I hope you can both reach a mutually satisfying agreement.

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.

ROOSTMADE CO. ORGANIC WOOD FINISH

We are in a golden age of DIY creativity. However, the joy and gratification of making something with your own hands may be tempered by the risks associated with the instruments necessary to create. Take for example woodworking. From power tools to toxic solvents, anything from a momentary distraction to overexposure can cause permanent damage.

Tools of the trade must always be used with the utmost caution, but Roostmade Organic Wood Finish removes some of the danger. Now, breathing in the chemicals found in traditional wood stains and seals no longer has to be part of your art. Roostmade, Roostmade.co “wood finish with a soul,” is made in $25 plus shipping for a San Diego from a “proprietary blend 5-ounce tin of FDA food-safe ingredients.” It is plant-based and contains no volatile organic compounds, alkyd resins or driers, common ingredients in traditional finishes. Plus, Roostmade has partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects, “a global leader in the movement to combat climate change,” and for each Roostmade product sold, three trees are planted.

Now, that’s some responsible creativity.

ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): When you’re playing poker, a wild card refers to a card that can be used as any card the cardholder wants it to be. If the two of hearts is deemed wild before the game begins, it can be used as an ace of diamonds, jack of clubs, queen of spades or anything else. That’s always a good thing! In the game of life, a wild card is the arrival of an unforeseen element that affects the flow of events unpredictably.

It might derail your plans, or alter them in ways that are at first inconvenient but ultimately beneficial. It may even cause them to succeed in an even more interesting fashion than you imagined they could.

I bring this up, Aries, because I suspect you’ll be in the Wild Card Season during the next four weeks.

Any and all of the above definitions may apply. Be alert for unusual luck.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If you gorge on 10 pounds of chocolate in the next 24 hours, you will get sick. Please don’t do that.

Limit your intake to no more than a pound. Follow a similar policy with any other pleasurable activity. Feel emboldened to surpass your normal dosage, yes, but avoid ridiculous overindulgence. Now is one of the rare times when visionary artist William Blake’s maxim is applicable: “The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.” So is his corollary, “You never know what is enough until you know what is more than enough.” Keep in mind Blake didn’t say, “The road of foolish, reckless exorbitance leads to the palace of wisdom.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Have you ever had a rousing insight about an action that would improve your life, but then failed to summon the willpower to actually take that action? Have you resolved to embark on some new behavior that would be good for you, but then found yourself unable to carry it out? Most of us have experienced these frustrations. The ancient Greeks had a word for it: akrasia. I bring it up, Gemini, because I suspect you may be less susceptible to akrasia in the next four weeks than you have ever been. I bet you will consistently have the courage and command to actually follow through on what your intuition tells you is in your best interest.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “There is no such thing as a failed experiment,” said inventor Buckminster Fuller, “only experiments with unexpected outcomes.”

That’s an excellent guideline for you to keep in mind during the coming weeks. You’re entering a phase of your astrological cycle when questions are more important than answers, when explorations are more essential than discoveries,

B OI S E WEEKLY.C O M

and when curiosity is more useful than knowledge. There will be minimal value in formulating a definitive concept of success and then trying to achieve it. You will have more fun, and you will learn more by continually redefining success as you wander and ramble.

will not only give your body, mind and soul the precise exercise they need most; they will also make you smarter, kinder and wilder.

Fortunately, the astrological omens also suggest laughter, dancing and sex will be even more easily available to you than they normally are.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): During World War II, British codebreakers regularly intercepted and deciphered top-secret radio messages that high-ranking German soldiers sent to each other.

Historians have concluded that these heroes shortened the war by at least two years. I bring this to your attention, Leo, in the hope it will inspire you. I believe your own metaphorical code-breaking skills will be acute in the coming weeks.

You’ll be able to decrypt messages that have different meanings from what they appear to mean. You won’t get fooled by deception and misdirection. This knack will enable you to home in on the elusive truths that are circulating—thus saving you from unnecessary and irrelevant turmoil.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The little voices in your head may have laryngitis, but they’re still spouting their cracked advice.

Here’s another curiosity: You are extra-attuned to the feelings and thoughts of other people. I’m tempted to speculate that you’re at least temporarily telepathic. There’s a third factor contributing to the riot in your head: People you were close to earlier in your life are showing up to kibitz you in your nightly dreams.

In response, I bid you to bark “Enough!” at all these meddlers.

You have astrological permission to tell them to pipe down so you can hear yourself think.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In April 1972, three American astronauts climbed into a spacecraft and took a trip to the moon and back. On the second day of the 11-day jaunt, pilot Ken Mattingly removed and misplaced his wedding ring. In the zero-gravity conditions, it drifted off and disappeared somewhere in the cabin. Nine days later, on the way home, Mattingly and Charlie Duke did a space walk.

When they opened the hatch and slipped outside, they found the wedding ring floating in the blackness of space. Duke was able to grab it and bring it in. I suspect in the coming weeks, you will recover a lost or missing item in an equally unlikely location, Virgo. Or perhaps your retrieval will be of a more metaphorical kind: a dream, a friendship, an opportunity.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): According to British philosopher Alain de Botton, “Maturity begins with the capacity to sense and, in good time and without defensiveness, admit to our own craziness.”

He says our humble willingness to be embarrassed by our confusion and mistakes and doubts is key to understanding ourselves. I believe these meditations will be especially useful for you in the coming weeks, Libra. They could lead you to learn and make use of robust new secrets of self-mastery.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): During the next four weeks, there are three activities I suspect you should indulge in at an elevated rate: laughter, dancing and sex. The astrological omens suggest these pursuits will bring you even more health benefits than usual. They

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Paleontologist Jack Horner says that developmental biologists are halfway toward being able to create a chickenosaurus—a creature that is genetically a blend of a chicken and a dinosaur. This project is conceivable because there’s an evolutionary link between the ancient reptile and the modern bird. Now is a favorable time for you to contemplate metaphorically similar juxtapositions and combinations, Capricorn. For the foreseeable future, you’ll have extra skill and savvy in the art of amalgamation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “Be stubborn about your goals but flexible about your methods.” That’s the message I saw on a woman’s T-shirt today. It’s the best possible advice for you to hear right now.

To further drive home the point, I’ll add a quote from productivity consultant David Allen: “Patience is the calm acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in mind.” Are you willing to be loyal and true to your high standards, Aquarius, even as you improvise to uphold and fulfill them?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In her novel The Round House, writer Louise Erdrich reminisces about how hard it was, earlier in her life, to yank out the trees whose roots had grown into the foundation of her family’s house. “How funny, strange, that a thing can grow so powerful even when planted in the wrong place,” she says. Then she adds, “Ideas, too.” Your first assignment in the coming weeks, my dear Pisces, is to make sure nothing gets planted in the wrong place.

Your second assignment is to focus all your intelligence and love on locating the right places for new seeds to be planted.
