NEWS SHAKING UP HIGHER ED

Organizers say they’ve collected more signatures than the statewide minimum of 56,192.

PETITIONS ARE IN, BUT THE MEDICAID EFFORT IS FAR FROM THE FINISH LINE It will be early July before organizers will know if their effort to get the issue of Idaho’s Medicaid gap on the November ballot was a success. That said, their confidence level is extremely high.

“It was like a steamroller in the final days of gathering signatures,” said Sam Sandmire, the Ada County Medicaid for Idaho co-chair. “Once people understood what the petitions were for, it was a no-brainer.”

In order to qualify for the November ballot, organizers needed to collect 56,192 signatures, or signatures from 6 percent of registered Idaho voters from the 2016 general election. Additionally, the signatures had to be geographically distributed to include at least 18 of Idaho’s 35 legislative districts.

“The last important piece was for us to distribute the appropriate petitions to county clerk offices across Idaho. We had caravans of people dropping those off for the past couple of days,” said Luke Mayville, the Sandpoint native and Reclaim Idaho co-founder who began the effort in 2017. “Then, the signatures have to be officially verified in each of those counties.”

Organizers said it was important to have a much-needed “cushion” of extra signatures, in case any were invalidated at the county level.

“There are so many ways that a signature could be invalid. For instance, someone may have signed where they were supposed to have printed their name. Or maybe they wrote down an old address or even used the wrong-colored ink,” said Sandmire. “That’s why we set up our team of volunteers, pretending to be the most meticulous county clerks ever. We went through all the signatures before they were turned in.”

If the issue is approved to appear on the November ballot, Mayville said the real work will begin to get statewide voter approval in the fall.

“We fully expect this to have a significant impact on voter turnout. As we collected signatures, we had conversations all across the state with people who haven’t voted much in the past,” said Mayville. “But when you tell them that this issue isn’t about candidates and is instead about making real change with one vote, that’s a pretty compelling reason to show up at the polls.”

College of Idaho Co-presidents redefine their collective job SK YL AR BARSANTI

On April 2, the College of Idaho inaugurated not one but two new presidents: Jim Everett, College of Idaho swim coach and former CEO of the Treasure Valley YMCA, and Doug Brigham, former president of TitleOne Corporation. The decision to hire two for the job followed a unanimous and historic vote by C of I trustees. The fact that hiring co-presidents is a first in the school’s 127-year history—in almost any university’s history—is not lost on Everett and Brigham.

Speaking to the co-presidents, it’s clear their shared position requires them to remain on a visibly (and audibly) united front. They not only share a title, but a compensation package and a house on campus (see “The House off College Avenue,” page 7). But don’t worry— with the class of 2018 approaching its Saturday, May 19, graduation date, Brigham assures that “just because there’s two of us doesn’t mean the speeches will be twice as long.”

THREE’S A CROWD, TWO’S A PRESIDENCY While still a novel concept, the idea of two presidents sharing a single position isn’t entirely unheard-of. As Inside Higher Ed reported in June 2016, two presidents preside over St. John’s College campuses— one in Annapolis, Maryland, and the other in Santa Fe, New Mexico—but Everett, for his part, is quick to clarify they “don’t propose this model for everybody.” Brigham is credited with bringing the option of a co-presidency to the table. “[The presidency] is a big job,” he said.

“I kept thinking about it, and one of us alone could easily get buried. By the time you come up for air, it’s three years later and you really haven’t moved along some of the key initiatives. The real driver was: How can we accomplish more in less time? As soon as I started thinking about it that way, I can tell you—this is the absolute truth—there was only one person I ever thought about, and that was Jim.” Brigham had worked with Everett before on behalf of the college, and recognized his

passion for the school and his ability to be a team-builder, someone who brings people together to accomplish a shared mission.

“Somebody else could have called me, and I would have said, ‘Thank you, but I don’t

“AS SOON AS I STARTED THINKING ABOUT IT, I CAN TELL YOU—THIS IS THE AB SOLU TE TRUTH— THERE WAS ONLY ONE PERSON I E VER THOUGHT ABOUT.” think it’s a great idea,’” Everett said. “[Doug] is brilliant. His business mind is fantastic, his judgment, his ethics. He’s just a genuinely kind human being. He’s doing this for all the right reasons, and I like to think I am too. No one gets stuff done trying to go out and do it themselves. We hope that model of collaboration is spread.”

PRESIDENTS WHO SET THE PRECEDENT The C of I co-presidents are driven by collaboration, but that’s not to say a single president’s tenure can’t be an accomplished one. Take Boise State University President Bob Kustra, who announced in November he would retire in June 2018.

During his presidency, BSU launched some $450 million in construction projects, and built the Environmental Research Building, the Micron Business and Economics Building, and the Norco Building for nursing and health sciences. Plus, when the Kustra-led fundraising campaign, Destination Distinction, ended in 2011, it had outraised its $175 million goal.

But to compare the two Treasure Valley schools is to compare apples and oranges.

Kustra has been in charge at Boise State for 15 years. Meanwhile, the College of Idaho graduating class of 2018 has seen no fewer than five presidents in four years.

Together, Brigham and Everett see their copresidency as a partnership, giving the school “two presidents in two places at one time.” It’s not a president/vice-president combination or a president/CEO relationship; instead, the two see themselves as working on a level field.

“Anytime there’s a hierarchy, we think you lose the magic of it,” said Everett.

“We think about the demands of this job, 7 and it’s a huge job to do it right.”

good thing about what we’ve found at the college is, even if somebody has questions about the model or is skeptical about it, they’re still passionate about the college. Everybody agrees we need to have the College of Idaho be great and be here for the next 127 years.”

WHAT’S BEGUN, AND WHAT’S NEXT

Everett says he and Co-president Brigham practice MBWA, or “management by wandering around.”

Brigham was quick to agree, saying, “We’re both very adamant that whatever we’re going to do here, it’s going to be accomplished as a team, and it’s going to be a shared vision with faculty and staff and alums and ourselves.”

Brigham and Everett don’t come from traditional academic backgrounds, but from

business and nonprofit circles, respectively. Still, Brigham said he hasn’t heard any opposition to the partnership.

“You would naturally expect folks in higher ed, in general, to pull back and say, ‘I’m not sure how this is going to work,’” Brigham said.

“We know those opinions are out there, but the

THE HOUSE OFF COLLEGE AVENUE While College of Idaho co-presidents Jim Everett and Doug Brigham won’t be sharing an office, there was one matter in particular to settle when they both took he job: the 50-year-old president’s house on the corner of South 20th Avenue and Everett Street in Caldwell. Brigham and Everett are rotating through the property weekly, rather than sharing it as traditional housemates. Still, that raised some questions: Let’s break it down. How many bedrooms and bathrooms, and how much square footage are we talking?

Everett: It’s bigger than we thought. It has four bedrooms, probably four bathrooms, maybe 2,400 square feet. There’s a nice basement I don’t think any of us have spent any time in.

Will your spouses join you?

Brigham: We’re both empty-nesters, so the family consists of spouses and [adult] children. They’ll be over here. They enjoy it.

Which of you would be more likely to start a chore chart?

Everett: Doug would probably have a better list or have one more organized.

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

As the College of Idaho prepares to end the school year, Brigham and Everett are already gearing up for the next one. As always, change is a big part of the campus culture, not just with presidential faces but with the adoption of the PEAK curriculum in 2010, the revival of a football program in 2014 (after a 37-year hiatus) and most recently, the completion of the Cruzen-Murray Library this past January.

As Everett puts it, they’re practicing MBWA, or “management by wandering around”—a method the two can see is resonating. While boosting enrollment and fundraising will be a major focus for the co-presidents, they remain committed to connecting with current students.

“It’s so neat to watch Jim on campus,” Brigham said. “He seemingly knows everybody.

He knows them by name, knows their background, knows their story, and I can see how well that resonates on the campus.”

As a team, Brigham and Everett spent the last month getting more acquainted with the issues important to students—one student brought up pet-friendly housing, for instance.

“We want to be known as Jim and Doug as much as we can,” Everett said. “Some of the students we sat with today said, ‘Oh, you’re the co-presidents!’ Hopefully, next time we meet them, it won’t be, ‘You’re the presidents.’ It’ll be, ‘You’re Doug, and you’re Jim.’”

Brigham: I did have to sweep out the garage after Jim had the place the first week.

What’s your top roommate pet peeve?

Everett: I had a college roommate who was very tidy. He would make my bed. Believe it or not, I didn’t like that.

What items did you, or will you, bring to the house?

Everett: The place didn’t come with a TV, and we’re not sure we miss that. We noticed there are no utensils, but we’re mostly eating in the cafeteria anyway.

Brigham: I brought a coffee maker. But between the two of us, Jim will bring the healthy food, and I’ll bring the cookies.

What’s been the biggest challenge of being colleagues-turnedco-presidents?

Everett: We’re very optimistic about the whole thing, but the biggest challenge we’ve had so far is [when we were hired], I got the purple folder and Doug got the yellow folder. He wanted the purple folder and I didn’t give it to him. Maybe next year as a gift he’ll get the purple folder.

Erma Hayman lived in her River Street home until her death in 2009, at the age of 102.

BOISE LOOKS TOWARD NEXT HISTORIC HOME PROJECT Though neighbors and visitors just got their first glimpse of the newly renovated James Castle House on April 28, the City of Boise is already setting its sights on another ambitious project to reinvent a former home as a cultural destination.

The Capital City Development Corporation and the City of Boise have crafted a conveyance agreement stating CCDC will turn over ownership of a nondescript, century-old stone structure at the corner of Ash and River streets, better known today as the Hayman House, to the city. It was there that Erma Hayman—a Boise institution herself, who died in 2009 at the age of 102—lived through most of the 20th century in a neighborhood that was once home to Boise’s largest AfricanAmerican community.

The plan is to turn the Hayman House into a public gathering space that will host workshops, lectures or artist-in-residence programs. The $500,000-plus renovation will be funded with city dollars and a $277,000 donation from CCDC. The plan is for improvements to the exterior of the Hayman House to begin as early as Fiscal Year 2019, which starts this October. The city will go on to tackle the interior in FY 2021.

Meanwhile, the Boise City Department of Arts and History continues to celebrate its recent opening of the James Castle House, where the iconic artist lived from 1931 until his death in 1977. The single-story farmhouse was renovated into a center for contemporary and historical showcases, tours and its own artist-in-residence program. The first artist, New York City-based Keiran Brennan Hinton, will live at the home from May through August.

Two more artists have also been selected for future three-month stays: Rachel Rickert (January-April, 2019) and Cindy Steiler (MayAugust, 2019).

“As they often do, our Department of Arts and History knocked this out of the park,” Boise Mayor Dave Bieter said at the April 28 grand opening of the Castle House.

Rather than resting on those laurels, Arts and History employees are already preparing to employ some of that same passion at the Hayman House.

NEWS THE BIG GIVE

The Idaho give-a-thon is Thursday, May 3 GEORGE PRENTICE Amy Little sees great similarity between hosting a wedding and hosting Idaho Gives, the Gem State give-a-thon slated for Thursday, May 3.

“You go to a wedding: It’s beautiful, it’s wonderful, right? But you don’t see how stressed out the bride was in the nine months getting ready for the big day. That’s a lot like Idaho Gives,” said Little, president and CEO of the Idaho Nonprofit Center. “But then the big day comes and it’s amazingly fun. We love it. I think I ugly cried a half-dozen times last year, every time we saw a big jump in donations. It’s a wedding. Who doesn’t want to spend a day like that? It’s the best day ever.”

There is plenty of preparation before the “nuptials,” but Little said she’s surrounded by colleagues with unending commitment.

“It wouldn’t happen without all these folks,” she said, pointing to a group of nonprofit representatives who had gathered just a few days before the big event. “They’re more excited about it than we are.”

It’s true that Idaho Gives may be Idaho’s finest hours—24 of them to be exact. At the stroke of midnight, donations big and small begin pouring in to support hundreds of nonprofits via idahogives.org. As a long day’s journey becomes night, many of those nonprofits get bonuses, or “golden tickets,” to sweeten the pot and keep their missions alive.

“It is, without a doubt, the most concentrated level of caring that you’ll ever see,” said Little.

THE NATURE OF GIVING Although Idaho Gives will fall in the midst of an expensive, contentious and often ugly political season this year, when it comes to supporting the good works of hundreds of charities, Idaho sees no political boundaries.

“We happen to live in a very interesting area where nonprofits are embraced,” said Lisa Duplessie, executive director of Boise Urban Garden School. “We’ve seen firsthand how the community really embraces an organization it loves.”

BUGS began in 2002 as a modest effort to interest youth in gardening. It has since expanded to include four summer camps and multiple year-round programs through partnerships with the City of Boise and the Boise School District.

“We’re reaching close to 10,000 kids in a year. It’s a big challenge for us,” said Duplessie. “Idaho Gives is a huge opportunity 8 | MAY 2–8, 2018 | BOISEweekly

Our guests will hear some amazing stories about our work.”

Slobodanka Hodzic, program director at Agency for New Americans, also looks forward to Idaho Gives Day as a rare opportunity to tell her nonprofit’s story.

“It just so happens that we’ll be hosting an Agency for New Americans movie night at The Flicks on Idaho Gives Day. We’ll feature the film Sonita, which won two awards at the Sundance Film Festival. Plus, we’ll be able to share our stories,” said Hodzic. “These are critical times for our agency. The time for giving couldn’t be more important. We’re finding people housing, helping with medical appointments, enrolling children into school, assisting them with citizenship and everything in between.”

“Sometimes you’re impacting the life of a kid in a garden. And sometimes you’re impacting the life of a refugee, which is what the folks at Global Talent Idaho do every day,” said Duplessie.

GTI is another small Idaho nonprofit— there are only two workers on staff—but its task is huge. The duo breaks down the indi-

work, most need a hand up from GTI when it comes to resume writing and job interviews.

“Most importantly, we’ll partner with Idaho employers to match these talented jobseekers with meaningful work,” said Davis. “It just so happens that Idaho Gives Day on May 3 will also be our annual Careers for Change event at Albertsons corporate headquarters in Boise.

Nearly 600 Idaho nonprofits in every corner of the Gem State will be participating in Idaho Gives Day this year. While each has its own individual goals, the Idaho Nonprofit Center has an impressive statewide goal of $1.5 million in donations.

“That would be a record,” said Little. “Last year, our goal was $1.2 million, and we got to nearly $1.4 million. It will be phenomenal if we hit the $1.5 million mark.”

In the Treasure Valley, KTVB-TV has partnered with the Idaho Nonprofit Center to be its exclusive television sponsor. Throughout the big day, Channel 7 personalities will showcase charities at the Boise Basque Block, this year’s Idaho Gives headquarters. Yoga at sunrise (hosted by the nonprofit Yoga for Good) will kick off the festivities, followed by pop-up appearances of performers from Boise Contemporary Theater and the Idaho Shakespeare Festival.

“Plus, the Idaho Humane Society will roll in its Snuggle Bus,” said Little. “And who doesn’t love puppies?”

Little and her colleagues might need a hug when Idaho Gives wraps at midnight. While she compared the event to a wedding, but she also likened the planning process to giving birth.

“You’re very excited when you first get the news. Then, you’re a bit queasy. In the middle stages, as you’re building the nursery, you’re a bit uncomfortable and you just want to have that baby,” she said. “But then Idaho Gives Day happens, it’s the best day ever, and you can’t wait to do it all over again.”

KAREN EASTMAN AND ANNE PETERSON: BRANCHING OUT Local artists Karen Eastman and Anne Peterson are teaming up for a gallery showing in honor of the Eastman Studio + Gallery’s debut in the Watercooler Building, combining their talents to illuminate the places where nature and art intersect.

Eastman, an oil painter, produces landscape-inspired abstract pieces and is “intrigued by the how the human spirit and the human form seem to be embodied in the shapes found in nature,” as she wrote in an artist’s statement.

Peterson works in acrylic, and many of her abstract paintings are stylized depictions of trees, figures and waterways. Stop by the gallery to view work from both artists.

GEORGE PRENTICE

Rick Darmody was 14 years old when his family moved to Boise in 1984. By the time he was 16 and a student at Bishop Kelly High, the highlight of his day was helping out at the local McDonald’s after school. It was more than a part-time job. It was the family business.

“In the evenings, I would love it when my dad would drive around to some of his McDonald’s franchises. We would go through the drive-thru, so they didn’t know that the owner was the customer,” said Darmody. “He would always check on how they were doing and give them feedback.

I learned a lot from him.”

More than three decades later, Darmody now oversees the family-owned McDonald’s franchises—there are 26 of them—from Boise to Caldwell, Kuna to Emmett. But some of the biggest changes to the franchises are happening in 2018: kiosk ordering, tableside service, cookedto-order burgers and Bluetooth technology, to name a few. Between greeting customers and demonstrating the new McDonald’s ordering system, Darmody opened up about finding the ideal balance of consistency and change.

adjustments to some of our recipes. Sure, french fries are always available, and soda could be a treat, but our Happy Meals are much more focused on fresh fruit options and [have] a greater focus on water or fruit juices.

I think one of the biggest changes I’ve ever seen at McDonald’s is the cook-to-order Quarter Pounder.

That’s right—with fresh, not frozen, beef.

We’re doing that now at all our locations. It’s interesting to note that with fresh ground beef, there’s a lot less waste by not using the premade frozen patties. It’s a big change all the way through our supply chain and our kitchens.

We like to think it’s a pretty big change for our customers too.

ner. My father and I are fortunate to spend time with the Simplot folks and their management team. And it’s still a family business. I just saw a number of the Simplots at the big McDonald’s Worldwide Convention in Orlando a few weeks ago. I’m not sure many people realize how much the Simplots do in our community. They’ve been particularly supportive of our local Ronald McDonald House near St. Luke’s Hospital. My mom, Sally, is a founding board member of the McDonald’s, worldwide, has a pretty unique Ronald McDonald House, and my sister Becky relationship with Idaho, going back to J.R.

Talk a bit about how customers can customize their orders via your kiosks.

You’ll be able to tell us exactly how you want that burger. You can even customize your french fries. Say, for example, you don’t want any salt.

And with each change, we update the nutrition information of your order. Then you choose a table tent, check out TAUGHT and head to your table.

Your family has probably hired thousands of people over the years.

Pardon the pun, but what’s the secret sauce in hiring great customer service employees?

My dad taught me years ago, “Hire personality. Hire smiles.” Our system can train almost anyone, but it’s really hard to train someone to smile. You can coach them. You can encourage them. But it has to be instinctual. If it’s not natural, customers can tell.

KAWIKA ALFICHE AND HALAU O KEIKIALI`I, SAPPHIRE, MAY 5 Until a revolution in 1893 deposed its final monarch, Hawaii was an island kingdom, and it took another 66 years before the archipelago transitioned from an independent republic to a U.S. state. Both its geographic isolation and its unique history make the islands a fascinating place, and Kawika Alfiche—recording artist, hula instructor and director of the Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center in California—a magnetic performer and ambassador of Hawaiian culture. Alfiche and his hula school, Halau o Keikiali`i, will take the Sapphire Room stage Saturday, May 5, for a night of music, Hawaiian storytelling and more. The San Francisco-based troupe has performed worldwide, making stops as disparate as Japan and Broadway in New York City. To get a preview of the night, join Alfiche and company at the Red Rock Church on South Roosevelt Street for dance and culture classes from 10 a.m.-4 p.m.

ARTS & CULTURE MOHR IS MORE

Jay Mohr leaves it all on stage in four performances over two nights “Hiding Places” (above) is an example of work by soon-to-be-resident Rachel Rickert.

BOISE DEPARTMENT OF ARTS & HISTORY ANNOUNCES JAMES CASTLE HOUSE ARTISTS-INRESIDENCE The James Castle House, which officially opens to the public on April 28, is an homage to the famous Boise artist that includes turning his longtime Collister Neighborhood home into a Boise cultural destination and gallery for his work.

Another significant moving piece of the JCH restoration has been adding an artist residence to the home, and on April 27, Boise Mayor Dave Bieter announced the first three artists to participate in the program: Keiran Brennan Hinton, Rachel Rickert and Cindy Steiler.

Based out of New York, Hinton will take up residence in the JCH in May and leave in August 2018. He has held solo exhibitions of his oil paintings in New York City and Toronto. Much of the work on his website comprises close studies of interior spaces, similar to Castle’s work, but their bright, chunky colors lead the viewer to details rather than dwelling on them. According to a release from the Boise City Department of Arts & History, Hinton’s work during the residency will serve as “a conversation between two artists across decades.”

The oil paintings created by Rickert, who hails from from Brooklyn, New York, are explorations of intimacy. In one, “Hand Wash, Hang Dry,” a garter dangles unceremoniously from a clothesline. Rendered impressionistically, the garment’s moment of recognition hangs in the air. In other paintings there are repeating patterns—often in lace—that recall Castle’s fascination with motifs, and scenes that juxtapose the deeply personal with the everyday. Rickert will be in Boise between January and April, 2019.

Finally, between May and August, 2019, Florida-based multimedia artist Cindy Steiler will make the JCH her home. Using found materials, she leans on patterns, lines, embroidery and photography to create dolls, dioramas and other art objects that bear an uncanny resemblance to Castle’s spare images and sketchy style.

In addition to staying free of charge at the JHC, each artist will receive a $2,000-permonth stipend as part of the residency program.

DEREK K APL AN The outlandishly unabashed Jay Mohr held nothing back in his sold-out performances at Liquid Laughs on April 27 and 28. Mohr’s brazen style of stand-up comedy is still as frenetic as ever, matching performances that he admits were fueled by psychotropic drugs. He also readily admits that being politically correct is not, nor will it ever be, his thing. Additionally, Mohr copped to his own “touch of gayness,” willingly flashed some skin and had a few colorful things to say about Boise.

There was a lengthy line around the corner of Liquid for the 10 p.m. show April 28, and Jay Mohr performed in front of four capacity audiences at Liquid Laughs April 27 and 28. fans were antsy to get inside—apparently Mohr’s earlier performance had gone overtime and, as a result, the later performance didn’t get Mohr, who said he made a point of bringThe audience member laughed heartily and going until 10:40 p.m., keeping in true, tardy ing his son with him to Boise, defined most accepted a complimentary handshake from rock star fashion. young boys as a “quarter gay.” He reminisced the comic.

SCREEN FO C U S F E AT U RES

Charlize Theron is an end-of-her-rope mother of three in the new dramedy Tully, penned by Diablo Cody and directed

by Jason Reitman, opening Friday, May 4, at The Flicks.

TULLY: POST-PARTUM NEAR-PERFECT

A different spin on Mother’s Day, starring Charlize Theron

STARTS FRIDAY, MAY 4

CINEMA CAFE MOVIE RENTALS

GEORGE PRENTICE Marlo is overwhelmed, underappreciated and battling too many loose Legos underfoot. Get the picture? She’s a mom. In fact, she has her hands full with two little ones: Sarah, who needs an inhaler; and Jonah, whose disorder lands him on the autism spectrum. When we meet her in the opening frames of Tully, Marlo is very pregnant with a third child.

One more thing: Marlo is portrayed by Charlize Theron, and you can forget that preconceived notion of Ms.Theron that may have popped into your mind’s eye—the jaw-dropping supermodel of those Christian Dior ads, the sinewy road warrior of Mad Max or the icy assassin of Atomic Blonde. Tully stars the accomplished, Oscarwinning Theron, who dances across the high wire act of pulling off a whip-smart dramedy with extra padding (she gained close to 50 pounds for the role).

“You’re glowing,” a rail-thin hipster sister-inlaw tells the ready-to-burst Marlo.

“Really? I feel like a burning trash barge,” Marlo responds.

With that, Tully returns viewers to the creative world of Diablo Cody, the ex-stripper and Oscar-winning screenplay author of Juno. For Tully, Cody is reunited with Juno director Jason Reitman. In fact, Tully feels very much like a companion piece to Juno. Imagine, if you will, Ellen Page’s pregnant teen Juno in the 2007 film, now as an end-of-her-tether mom of three.

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

“Your 20s are great,” warns Marlo. “But then your 30s come around the corner like a garbage truck at 5 a.m.”

All is not lost for Marlo. One fine evening, along comes Tully. She is what is affectionately known as a “night nanny,” keeping watch over Marlo’s newborn and only waking her when it’s time to breastfeed.

“I’m here to take care of you, too,” says Tully, a 20-something, belly shirt-wearing nocturnal angel. She’s played by the mercurial Mackenzie Davis, who burned up the small screen in Halt and Catch Fire and the big screen in last year’s Blade Runner 2049.

When Theron and Davis share screen time in Tully—and there are plenty of those scenes— it’s near-perfection.

Kudos also to composer Rob Simonsen, who put together a delicious score for Tully, which includes tantalizing bits of some of Cyndi Lauper’s greatest hits and a genius cover version of “You Only Live Twice,” turning the 50-year-old James Bond tune on its ear.

Above all, Tully is ladies’ night with Cody, Davis and Theron at the top of their respective games. I loved this film, and for any young couple in desperate need of a great date night and a few laughs at the expense of parenthood, a screening is definitely worth the cost of a babysitter, preferably one like Tully.

BEER GUZZLER CELEBRATING CINCO

MAZAMA BREWING SALUD!, $1.89-$2.09 This pours a light amber, something like a Dos Equis, but with a more generous head that leaves an attractive lacing. It’s definitely a malt-driven lager on both the nose and on the palate. Soft hop aromas with a touch of spice add interest to the brew, while smooth biscuit and light citrus notes back those malt flavors. It’s a well-balanced, worthy effort from this Corvallis, Oregonbased brewery.

MELVIN HEYZEUS, $1.59-$1.89 A crystal-clear, straw-colored brew, this pour is topped by an egg-white head and offers the subtle aroma of cornbread and a hint of fruity hops. The flavors are a lively mix of lightly bitter citrus and sweet, creamed corn, with touches of cracker, melon and spice.

Completely refreshing, it finishes clean and crisp. This is a fitting tribute to light Mexican lagers.

TECATE ORIGINAL, $1.19-$1.49 A paper-thin head tops this clear, golden pour.

Other than a touch of herb, there isn’t much happening aroma-wise. The flavors are light and clean with soft malt, bread dough and earthy grain coming through—a hit of lime and a sprinkle of salt couldn’t hurt.

—David Kirkpatrick

BE THANY CAMP

Cinco de Mayo, which celebrates the 1862 Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla, is coming up this weekend. While the holiday is probably a bigger deal in the United States than it is south of the border, it’s still a great excuse to quaff an ice-cold, Mexican-style lager. Here are three for your consideration:

VEGETRAILS: A VEGAN BAKER’S JOURNEY FROM MAUI TO BOISE Bethany Camp is the one-woman force behind Namaste Vegan LE X NEL SON Bethany Camp’s cheesecakes are showpieces, scored artistically across the top, drizzled with peanut butter and sprinkled with everything from cocoa nibs to fresh berries and edible flowers. But while most cheesecakes use a cream cheese and sour cream base, Camp makes hers from something else entirely: cashews.

“I have two different kinds [of cashew cheese] that I make,” Camp said. “I do a fermented one, which is really cool because it has a lot of live probiotics in it and it gives it that tangy flavor similar to a normal cheesecake.

And then I also do one that’s not fermented.

You soak the cashews overnight and then you blend them, and it makes them really smooth and creamy, and then you can add a ton of flavors. I do a chocolate-peanut butter one that’s really good, I’ve done lemon-blueberry and peppermint.”

Camp uses cashews in her cheesecakes—as well as avocados in her chocolate mousse, chickpeas in her chocolate chip cookies, and black beans and sweet potatoes in her brownies—so she can stick to a vegan diet without forgoing her favorite childhood treats. Now, she also sells those sweets online under the name Namaste Vegan to friends, family, and, as soon as she can get space in a commercial kitchen, the public.

To someone looking at Camp’s life from the outside, starting a vegan bakery business may have seemed like a no-brainer. Though she was raised in Washington and currently works out of her home in Boise, when Camp went vegan in January of 2017, she was living on the Hawaiian island of Maui, attending the Culinary Arts program at what was then Maui Community College (now University of Hawaii Maui College) in Kahului. There, she learned the basics

of cooking and baking before dropping out to work as a guide for whale watching and snorkeling tours.

Before that, she studied photography at Montana State University in Bozeman, Montana, but didn’t finish that degree either—she’s a self-described “free spirit.”

While working in Maui, Camp met Alex Baldwin, a Boise native, and less than a year later the two had moved to the City of Trees.

For Camp, that meant a big shakeup in her lifestyle. In Hawaii, eating a plant-based diet— which she had turned to cold turkey to combat gut issues—had been relatively easy; fresh fruit and vegetables were everywhere, and the island had seen an explosion of veghead eateries. “[With] the culture there, there’s more of a demand. There are even restaurants that are full-on vegan, which makes it really easy when you want to go out to each with your friends or whatever. It’s just easier to have a social life,” Camp said.

To compensate for the lack of options in Boise, Camp took matters into her own kitchen, putting her culinary school training to work. As friends and family started raving about bakes like her chocolate and sea salt fudge (which, like many of her desserts, is not only vegan but also free of gluten and refined sugar), Camp started taking orders.

“There have definitely been some disasters,” Camp said of her early baking efforts. “… The first few things were definitely not smooth.

You just have to find the right recipes and really just experiment with what works and what

doesn’t work. I remember when I was first trying to bake healthy stuff, when I lived back at home in Washington with my parents, I tried to make a cobbler or something, and my mom was just like, ‘This is kind of...interesting. It’s very...okay.’”

Camp does most of her baking on nights and weekends. During the week, she works full time as a barista/cashier/prep cook at A’Tavola Gourmet Marketplace in downtown Boise, and takes health coaching courses online through Institute for Integrated Nutrition. Along with her baking, she channels her photography skills into taking stunning, color-saturated photos of her desserts, which she posts to her website as well as on her Instagram, @na_ma_ste_vegan.

If business continues to pick up, Camp hopes to open a booth at the local farmer’s market, and she dreams of someday having her own brick-and-mortar bakery. For now, though, she’s excited about her next project: whipping up vegan breakfasts and dinners for a threeday, 10-person yoga retreat at Redfish Lake put together by Boise Hot Yoga instructor Nicole Vickerman. As a yogi herself, Camp is looking forward to the trip on a personal level, but she said it also fits with her vision for her business, which has a yoga term in its name. “‘Namaste’ means bowing with respect to others,” Camp said, “and it’s also a way to express respecting your health, and the environment, and animals.”

PAGE BREAK MINERVA’S BREAKDOWN $GYLFH IRU WKRVH RQ WKH YHUJH FACTS ON FRICTION DEAR MINERVA, I’m in my late 50s. I’m still very sexually active, though I have noticed some changes in the how things are working. I feel drier but I don’t know what I can do about it. I know things change as we women age so I thought maybe you could give me some ideas on what kinds of lube to use.

Sincerely, Far from Dried Up

DEAR FAR, Older people are enjoying healthy, active sex lives longer than ever. Naturally, there are things to take into consideration since the desire is there, even if the juices aren’t flowing like they once were. Glide over to your local adult store to pick up different lubes. Silicone- and water-based lubes are great, especially if your sexual activity involves condoms. Avoid siliconebased lubes if you are using silicone toys. Avoid lubes that are for numbing or tingling as they may make it harder to sense if sexual activity is hurting you. Coconut oil seems to be a fave for a lot of aging women, but remember oil-based lubes can damage latex condoms, reducing their effectiveness. There’s a whole slippery world of lube out there so take advantage of the chance to explore beyond what you see in your big box stores.

Get a few different kinds so you are ready for whatever kind of sexual activity slides your way, and don’t skimp. When you are dealing with the delicate areas of your body, sometimes more really is more.

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.

FIND LOVEPOP GREETING CARDS LOVEP Pop-up greeting cards are P nothing new, but the Bostonnoth based company LovePop has taken innovation in the industry—which hadn’t seen much change in years—to an LO VE PO PC AR D S. eye-popping level.

CO M We first became enchanted with LovePop last Christmas when a few sample cards showed up in the mailbox; the snowflake, teddy bear and evergreen sculptures—commonplace designs in older, less enthusiastic pop-ups—were dazzlingly intricate. An exploration of the LovePop website revealed a wealth of creative, complex designs ranging from a pop-up choo-choo train to two themes featuring Santa: one of him having a snooze in a hammock between two palm trees and another atop a souped-up motorcycle.

In early January, the company was infused with a $12.5 million investment from financiers, and since then, LovePop has dialed up its array of hand-crafted paper sculptures. Its latest wonders include delicate miniatures of Japanese bonsai and sakura trees, and eyecatching tulip and rose bouquets. Prices run from $13 for one card to $10 apiece for multiples of five or more.

ASTROLOGY TAURUS (April 20-May 20): These days you have an enhanced ability to arouse the appreciation and generosity of your allies, friends and loved ones. The magnetic influence you’re emanating could even start to evoke the interest and inquiries of mere acquaintances and random strangers. Be discerning about how you wield that potent stuff! On the other hand, don’t be shy about using it to attract all the benefits it can bring you. It’s OK to be a bit greedier for goodies than usual as long as you’re also a bit more compassionate than usual.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): I bet that a healing influence will arrive from an unexpected direction and begin to work its subtle but intense magic before anyone realizes what’s happening.

I predict that the bridge you’re building will lead to a place that’s less flashy but more useful than you imagined. And I’m guessing that although you may initially feel jumbled by unforeseen outcomes, those outcomes will ultimately be redemptive. Hooray for lucky flukes and weird switcheroos!

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Born under the astrological sign of Cancer, Franz Kafka is regarded as one of the twentieth century’s major literary talents. Alas, he made little money from his writing.

Among the day jobs he did to earn a living were stints as a bureaucrat at insurance companies. His superiors there praised his efforts.

“Superb administrative talent,” they said about him. Let’s use this as a take-off point to meditate on your destiny, Cancerian. Are you good at skills you’re not passionate about? Are you admired and acknowledged for having qualities that aren’t of central importance to you? If so, the coming weeks and months will be a favorable time to explore this apparent discrepancy.

I believe you will have the power to get closer to doing what you love.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): If you really wanted to, you could probably break the world’s record for most words typed per minute with the nose (103 characters in 47 seconds). I bet you could also shatter a host of other marks, as well, like eating the most hot chiles in two minutes, or weaving the biggest garland using defunct iPhones, or dancing the longest on a tabletop while listening to a continuous loop of Nirvana’s song “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” But I hope you won’t waste your soaring capacity for excellence on meaningless stunts like those. I’d rather see you break your own personal records for accomplishments like effective communications, highquality community-building and smart career moves.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Isaac Newton (1643-1727) was among history’s three most influential scientists. Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) has been described as the central figure in modern philosophy. Henry James (1843-1916) is regarded as one of the greatest novelists in English literature.

John Ruskin (1819-1900) was a prominent art critic and social thinker. What did these four men have in common? They never had sex with anyone. They were virgins when they died. I view this fact with alarm. What does it mean that Western culture is so influenced by the ideas of men who lacked this fundamental initiation? With that as our context, I make this assertion: If you hope to make good decisions in the coming weeks, you must draw on the wisdom you have gained from being sexually entwined with other humans.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Every so often, a painter has to destroy painting,” said twentiethcentury abstract expressionist painter Willem de Kooning.

“Cézanne did it. Picasso did it with Cubism. Then Pollock did it. He busted our idea of a picture all to hell.” In de Kooning’s view, these “destructive” artists performed a noble service. They demolished entrenched ideas about the nature of painting, thus liberating their colleagues and descendants from stale constraints. Judging from the current astrological omens, Libra, I surmise the near future will be a good time for you to wreak creative destruction in your own field or sphere. What progress and breakthroughs might be possible?

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Mayflies are aquatic insects with short life spans. Many species live less than 24 hours, even though the eggs they lay may take three years to hatch. I suspect this may be somewhat of an apt metaphor for your future, Scorpio. A transitory or short-duration experience could leave a legacy that will ripen for a long time before it hatches. But that’s where the metaphor breaks down. When your legacy has fully ripened—when it becomes available as a living presence—I bet it will last a long time.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): When a critic at Rolling Stone magazine reviewed the Beatles’ Abbey Road in 1969, he said some of the songs were “so heavily overproduced that they are hard to listen to.” He added, “Surely they must have enough talent and intelligence to do better than this.”

Years later, however, Rolling Stone altered its opinion, naming Abbey Road the 14th-best album of all time. I suspect, Sagittarius, that you’re in a phase with metaphorical resemblances to the earlier

assessment. But I’m reasonably sure that this will ultimately evolve into being more like the later valuation—and it won’t take years.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you should be awash in worthy influences that animate your beautiful passion.

Are you swooning and twirling and uncoiling? Are you overflowing with a lush longing to celebrate the miracle of being alive? If your answer is yes, congratulations.

May your natural intoxication levels continue to rise. But if my description doesn’t match your current experience, you may be out of sync with cosmic rhythms. And if that’s the case, please take emergency measures. Escape to a sanctuary where you can shed your worries and inhibitions and maybe even your clothes. Get drunk on undulating music as you dance yourself into a dreamy love revelry.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “Life never gives you anything that’s all bad or all good.” So proclaimed the smartest Aquarian 6-year-old girl I know as we kicked a big orange ball around a playground. I agreed with her! “Twenty years from now,” I told her, “I’m going to remind you that you told me this heartful truth.” I didn’t tell her the corollary that I’d add to her axiom, but I’ll share it with you: If anything or anyone seems to be all bad or all good, you’re probably not seeing the big picture. There are exceptions, however! For example, I bet you will soon experience or are already experiencing a graceful stroke of fate that’s very close to being all good.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “Enodation” is an old, nearly obsolete English word that refers to the act of untying a knot or solving a knotty problem. “Enodous” means “free of knots.” Let’s make these your celebratory words of power for the month of May, Pisces. Speak them out loud every now and then. Invoke them as holy chants and potent prayers leading you to discover the precise magic that will untangle the kinks and snarls you most need to untangle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): I hate rampant consumerism almost as much as I hate hatred, so I don’t offer the following advice lightly: Buy an experience that could help liberate you from the suffering you’ve had trouble outgrowing. Or buy a toy that can thaw your frozen joy. Or buy a connection that might inspire you to express a desire you need help in expressing. Or buy an influence that will motivate you to shed a belief or theory that has been cramping your lust for life. Or all of the above! (And if buying these things isn’t possible, consider renting.)
