EDITOR’S NOTE ON JET LAG, MEMORY AND BEER EMPIRES On my first solo visit to Europe, I landed at London Heathrow Airport. I had to navigate the Tube to London Waterloo station, board a train to Southampton, transfer to Lymington Town, then walk the mile or so to my aunt and uncle’s home in Pennington. I was exhausted when I arrived, and my uncle had a wise suggestion: Drink a beer. My relatives lived near one of the British importers of Stella Artois (then a mostly unknown brand in the United States), so often had a case or two in the house. After my trek across North America, the Atlantic Ocean and most of southern England, the cure for jet lag was a tall can of Stella. For years afterward, I searched for Stella in bars and restaurants—hoping to reconnect with the feeling of being 21 and abroad on my own—to no avail, until around 2006-2007, when Stella started showing up everywhere. But the Belgian brew was suffering an image problem: with a higher alcohol content than most European beers, it had the downmarket reputation of a hooligan’s beer—basically the British version of malt liquor. A 2007 article in the Daily Mail stated the once beloved brand had “gone from being a product with a certain degree of class to one associated with all the wrong sort of people.” I didn’t care. I kept right on buying Stella, despite its bad rap and steep price. Then, in 2009, Stella fell into the orbit of Anheuser-Busch InBev in a $52 billion deal that created the world’s largest brewing company. According to a London-based brand expert quoted in 2007 by the Daily Mail, Stella had “become a victim of its own success.” By growing “so enormous … either it becomes ubiquitous and begins to lose credibility. Or it’s bought by the wrong type of customer.” Now, those same dynamics are at work as AB InBev continues its domination of the global beer market with a wave of acquisitions of craft brewers. No matter that Stella still tastes the same (as far as I can tell), its corporate powered omnipresence had lessened my affection. Those tensions between macro and micro brews are explored on Page 11 in a fascinating feature by Boise Weekly roving food writer Tara Morgan. No matter how far you’ve traveled to get here, follow my uncle’s advice and crack a cold one. —Zach Hagadone

OPINION MOTHER TERESA? The Luna who just won’t go away BY BILL COPE People who have a job to do should do it themselves and not try to get someone else to do it for them, isn’t that right? So were I to implore any Idaho reporters reading this column to please share any information they may have on Teresa Luna, who she knows, and (possibly) what she knows about them, all so I could write a column about the wonders of her still having a job with the state?... that wouldn’t be proper, would it? Nah, probably not. But damn! I don’t know what else to do. I am just itching to know how she does it. I’d love to call up a state leader—Butch Otter, perhaps, or Brad Richy, who heads the agency in which Teresa Luna snagged her newest state paycheck—and ask something along the lines of... “Say, Butch (or Brad), could you please tell me how an individual can screw up as thoroughly as Teresa Luna did in one extremely-well-paid state position, even going behind the back of our Legislature to renew a contract that was so rotten, it has been rejected by the Idaho Supreme Court and is now being investigated by the U.S. Department of Justice, and then get hired for another state position, and it happens right after it’s discovered that she hadn’t quite left the agency she screwed up so badly because she’d been kept on as some kind consultant or something for an extra month after her embarrassed resignation, all in a capacity that, it seems, even our state legislators didn’t know about? How does that happen, Butch (or Brad)? Is it at all possible she has a crude clay doll with a lock of your hair glued on top, perhaps, along with a sharp pin or two that she keeps in a secret place, and you fear that if you cut her loose and send her out into non-governmental employment territory, she might take it personally?” See what I mean? Pretty clumsy, huh? And you can guess how far I’d get. Which is the only reason I would ask a real news reporter to do the work I should be doing myself. On the other hand, as near as I can tell, I’m the only person in Idaho with access to a newspaper column who is curious about this matter. And it’s not like I want to cast doubt on every state employee who might have pulled a boner, then got a second chance. But... and maybe I’m wrong here... but “pulling a boner” doesn’t come close to describing what Teresa Luna pulled. Actually, I’ve had my suspicions from the first time I heard she had a pretty significant management position with the state, because well... to be blunt... she isn’t exactly qualified by virtue of her education or background as management material, is she? So it has occurred to me more than once that maybe the fact her brother was state superintendent of

public instruction had something to do with it. And let’s face it ... Tom Luna, himself, was about as qualified for that job as only an uneducated, non-educator could be. So whatever it is that gets Teresa the enthusiastic backing of powerful Idaho influences must run in the family. And I don’t necessarily mean that in a nepotism way. It’s probable we’ll never know how much Tom Luna’s escapades—him with his failed “Students Come First” follies and botched charter schools and cronied-up contracts with iffy online providers—have cost the taxpayers of Idaho. It’s possible that the damage he wrought would be measured more in wasted time and opportunities than in wasted money—though I doubt it. But Teresa, now. We can pretty much pin her failures down to within a few million dollars. Seriously, that Idaho Education Network contract that the questionable Mike Gwartney first, then Ms. Luna, tried to bully into being was a $60 million flop. And that doesn’t even count the hundreds of thousands of dollars the state is spending to defend against lawsuits that are coming from the deal’s sore losers. And that extra month she spent “consulting” with the Department of Administration—after she had resigned in what any non-insider would have to call “disgrace”—that would come out to another $8,000, or so, seeing as how her annual take-home as director of that office was close to $100,000. Now, with her new title “emergency planner,” she’ll be getting almost $60,000 from the Idaho Bureau of Homeland Security— which... pardon my snark... sounds to me like the kind of office opened to keep inept brothers-inlaw from having to take a job washing cars. But I guess the thing that has me scratching my head in the worst way isn’t the money aspect of it all—which, lest you forgot, comes out of pockets in a state where the average yearly earnings are slightly more than $43,000—but exactly what is it about Teresa Luna that seems so indispensable to whomever does the hiring up there in Otter Central? The governor is quoted as remarking, “I admire Teresa’s tenacity and commitment to doing the right thing.” But seems to me the doing the right thing part of that statement went seriously kerflooey the minute she extended that crap broadband contract another six years without telling the Legislature. Somewhere in Idaho, there’s gotta be a journalist nosy enough to look beyond those glowing appraisals of Teresa’s talents, then explain to the rest of us what’s going on. And I’m pretty sure it’s not me. I can’t stop thinking about a clay doll with some of my hair glued on top, tucked away in a drawer somewhere. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Readers CHOICE Award

JOE NAMATH FOR PRESIDENT

VOTE

Hyperbaric hindsight

ONLINE BOISEWEEKLY.COM

BY JOHN REMBER No question about the Republican nominee coming out of this July’s national convention in Ferguson, Mo.: Joe Namath, the guy who beat the heavily-favored Baltimore Colts 16-7 in Superbowl III, the fur-coat wearing former University of Alabama quarterback who claimed to have slept with 300 women before he even joined the Jets, which is perhaps why Hall of Fame Coach Bill Walsh called him a “stylish passer with the quickest release I’ve ever seen.” Joe’s a seasoned businessman, having run his own nightclub. He has a college degree, finishing up in 2007 after having started in 1962. In a historically pre-presidential move, he quit drinking after decades as a drunk. He guest-starred on The Simpsons and had his own late-night talk show. And smart? Another Hall of Fame coach, Don Shula, called him “one of the three smartest quarterbacks of all time,” and as soon as I find out who the other two are, I’ll suggest Joe tap them as his vice president and secretary of defense. But the main reason Joe should accept the Republican nomination in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho this summer is because he has come out and said that if he had to do it all over again, he wouldn’t play football. “None of the [human] body was designed to play football,” is the way he put it. “The brain isn’t designed for the kind of contact or physical abuse that your body gets playing this sport.” Namath has undergone 120 hyperbaric treatments to counteract the effects of concussions during his career as a quarterback. He says some brain cells that he’d given up for dead have come back to life. After a lifetime of endorsing athletic shoes, barbeque grills, cologne, popcorn poppers and pantyhose, he’s now endorsing the “Joe Namath Neurological Research Center at the Jupiter Medical Clinic in beautiful South Florida for victims of Traumatic Brain Injuries.” He says he doesn’t blame parents for not wanting their kids to play football, and has said there are better ways of learning the teamwork and athletic skills that football teaches. Predictably, there has been pushback. Skeptics have looked at Joe’s success with women, his lifetime of partying, his $18 million in the bank— which makes those pantyhose and popcorn popper endorsements look less embarrassing—and have stated that no sane person would trade any of them for a functioning brain in old age. Bob’s Blitz sportsblog puts it plain: “Mr. Namath, don’t tell me that you would give that all up because you had your bell rung a few times in your life. Because I think I can speak for most of us when I say that we would trade our lives for yours in a New York minute.” BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Namath’s detractors have not spent much time thinking about how hellish the future might look if you’re facing it with chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a progressive brain disease that results from concussion and looks a lot like Alzheimer’s. But I believe Joe when he says he wouldn’t do it again if he knew now what he knew then, which is why the Republicans will nominate him for president this July in riot-torn Baltimore, Md. He won’t have trouble with the question so many candidates have been foundering on, which is, “If you knew then what you know now, would you have taken the country into the Iraq War?” “No way,” is what Joe will say. “None of the human body is designed for war. The brain isn’t designed for the kind of abuse it gets from an IED. I don’t blame parents for not wanting their children to go to war, especially if that war is justified by cynically manufactured intelligence and based on estimates of the oil reserves of the country you’re going to invade.” The best thing about Joe Namath being nominated for president in two months at the Republican National Convention in Benghazi, Libya, is that he’s going to tell Americans that our past isn’t where our future lies. “You have to live each day as it comes,” he’ll say. “Getting into the Hall of Fame isn’t going to bring those brain cells back. For that you need a pressurized oxygen chamber and something to get rid of that beta-amyloid plaque. We have a whole country that has experienced a series of small concussions. They’re starting to add up. If America is going to have a non-demented old age, we need to start doing things differently. We can begin by not sending our kids off to be killed or maimed in optional wars. When you’ve got an optional war, your only option is not to have it.” For those folks who think that Joe lacks the qualifications to be president, I can only offer this: He’s familiar with the owners of NFL franchises. He’ll see every summit of world leaders and every joint session of Congress as an NFL Owner’s meeting. He’ll know that many congressmen and prime ministers and presidents are nothing more than geriatric ego-driven sociopaths perfectly willing to sacrifice the health of their players for the fading thrills of profit and victory. “People,” he will say to them, “it’s only a game. Winning isn’t victory if you destroy your team in the process. Sooner or later the Player’s Union is going to win a class-action suit that will hand you your ass on a platter.” And because he’s Joe Namath, and because he has been known to give out free passes for hyperbaric oxygen treatments at the Jupiter Medical Clinic in beautiful South Florida, they’ll listen.

Enel Green Power operates the power house at Barber Dam, with a capacity of 4.14 megawatts.

ENVIRONMENTALISTS: BARBER DAM HYDROELECTRIC OPERATORS SHOULD PAY RESTITUTION OVER BOISE RIVER DEWATERING After the Barber Dam ceased water flow to the Boise River in the late night and early morning hours of Feb. 3 and Feb. 4, citizens and environmental groups were astonished to discover the river had become a trickle. It took Enel Green Power—the company operating a hydroelectric facility at the dam—nearly eight hours to discover and correct the problem. Environmentalists say the shutdown possibly killed adolescent fish and affected the watershed. Almost four months later, the Ada County commissioners hosted a public meeting May 27 where Enel’s management team was asked to explain how the incident happened and how it will make sure it won’t happen again. The public also got the opportunity to tell Enel and the commissioners their concerns with the dewatering of the Boise River. More than 75 people attended the evening meeting and when it came time to testify, several put forth one request: Pay for the damage to the watershed. The Idaho Conservation League suggested a few ideas, including restoring riparian areas around Barber Pool and the Boise River, funding for the U.S. Geological Survey to complete water quality studies and biological sampling, and off-channel fish habitat enhancement projects. The price tag for the projects ranges from $35,000 to $350,000. “[Enel] is anxious to get started,” Ada County Commissioner Dave Case told Boise Weekly, “but they need to know what to do.” Case said the commissioners may start the process by creating an advisory group to pick a project for the corporation to fund, rather than simply levying a fine. “To me, when accidents happen, should there be fines, or positive efforts to correct things?” said Case. “I think it would be better to do something positive for the area rather than take the money for a fine that would go to some government entity.” Joe Kozfkay, the regional fish manager for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game, doesn’t have as much confidence in Enel Green Power to take on a costly river 9 restoration project. “I doubt that much is going to happen 8 | JUNE 3–9, 2015 | BOISEweekly

ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A FIFTH-GRADER? In search of a better climate to discuss climate change GEORGE PRENTICE

OK, contestants, hands on your buzzers. The category is Renewable Energy. Here are your questions: 1. What Idahoan said, “This green stuff is driving me nuts”? Was it: A) an environmentalist, B) an elected official or C) a fifth-grader? 2. What Idahoan said, “The underlying cause of these climactic shifts is ultimately not well understood [sic]”? Was it: A) an environmentalist, B) an elected official or C) a fifth-grader? 3. What Idahoan said, “I won’t be guided by the global warming propaganda machine”? Was it: A) an environmentalist, B) an elected official or C) a fifth-grader? The answer to all three is “B.” From the governor’s office to the Legislature and all the way to Capitol Hill, a number of Idaho public officials continue to push back against the idea that climate change is at crisis level—or even happening. In spite of evidence from the American Medical Association, American Meteorological Society and the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, Idaho still leans toward skepticism. According to a 2014 study from the Yale Project on Climate Change, 58 percent of Idahoans thought global warming was occurring. Even fewer—48 percent—said they were worried and a mere 32 percent indicated they were personally harmed by global warming. The numbers shrink even further in Twin Falls County, where the Yale Study indicated only 29 percent said global warming might harm them personally. Rep. Pete Nielsen ought to know. Twin Falls County residents continue to send him to the Idaho Legislature where he sits on the House En-

vironment, Energy and Technology Committee. That’s where he was in fine form Feb. 4, offering this riposte on the issue of global warming, and in particular the effort to tighten carbon emissions: “I’m not a carbon-type guy in the first place. This green stuff is driving me nuts. There’s a lot of rebellion.” Some of those Idaho rebels have been quite adept at circulating counterclaims. Look through the comment section of articles on climate change—including those on boiseweekly.com— and more than a few will include the terms “hoax,” “global weirding” or “climate alarmism.” Those commenters have friends in high places. In July 2013, Gov. C.L. “Butch” Otter wrote, “While the degree and extent to which carbon emissions play a role in climate change is still debatable, the fact that Idaho is significantly impacted by the federal government’s actions and inactions is not.” In February 2013, U.S. Sen. Mike Crapo wrote, “While there is no dispute over the fact that the Earth’s climate has changed many times over the planet’s history, the underlying cause of these climactic shifts is ultimately not well understood [sic].” In February 2014, U.S. Rep. Raul Labrador told NBC News, “As a policymaker, I won’t be guided by the global warming propaganda machine.”

OK, contestants, time for the bonus round: 1. What Idahoan said, “People are just using too much energy in the form of carbon dioxide, and its biggest impact is a wild change in our Earth’s climate”? Was it: A) an environmentalist, B) an elected official or C) a fifth-grader?

The answer: “C,” written in a letter addressed to Boise Weekly by 11-year-old Jack Leonard. “I am a fifth-grader who goes to Cecil D. Andrus Elementary. I would like to state my concern,” Jack wrote in his opening line. “The burning question that relates to this issues is: If we do have a change in climate, how will kids adapt to the sudden change? Nobody has quite figured out the answer to that question. Yet, like every problem, there is a solution,” he wrote, his next two paragraphs debating the pros and cons of renewable energy sources, with particular emphasis on solar energy. Jack’s letter prompted BW to visit with him; his mother, Jennie Leonard; and his teacher Carla Morton—while his younger brother, Henry, watched patiently—in a classroom at Cecil Andrus Elementary. “A lot more people closer to my age do understand this,” Jack said when BW mentioned to him that a good many Idaho adults don’t grasp climate change, let alone its consequences. “Carbon dioxide triggers global warming. It’s all about the amount of fuel we use.” Jack is an exceptional student: His level of learning has qualified him for the West Ada School District’s “self-contained gifted program,” designed for students to reach deeper understanding through project-based learning. Jack crafted— and typed—his letter to BW himself. “I’m very fortunate to work with students like Jack every day,” said Morton. “There’s such a wonderful level of compassion and inquisitiveness. They work things out.” 9 Jennie said, if given the chance, she would gush about her kids for hours. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

‘This is a problem for the city’

Scores of citizens showed up at a May 24 public hearing on the Boise River’s Feb. 3 dewatering.

GEORGE PRENTICE The stage is set for a first-of-its-kind hearing before the Boise City Council, when on Tuesday, June 9, the Boise City Department of Arts and History will defend its decision to award a more than $50,000 contract to fabricate and wrap 39 traffic boxes with public art that some say violates Idaho procurement laws. A good part of the defense, represented by Boise Purchasing Manager Colin Millar, is that the city’s bidding process did not follow Idaho Code for such contracts because the city tags the fabrication work as “personal services,” a category that also includes “janitorial, secretarial services, landscaping and snow removal.” “But where did that “personal services’ definition come from? Idaho case law says ‘personal services’ should be something that requires technical skill,” said attorney Jessica Pollack, of Carey Perkins, LLP, who is representing Boise-based Signs2U in its protest over the contract award. “But the city’s definition is referring to janitors and snow plowing. That’s exceptionally broad.” Signs2U and five other businesses lost the traffic box art contract to Trademark Sign Company in spite of the fact that Trademark’s bid of $1,473 per box was the highest and more than twice the amount of the lowest bid of $563 a box. “We never said we were going to go with the low bid,” said Millar, following a Boise Weekly

A contested contract to wrap 39 trafﬁc boxes with public art will be the subject of a formal hearing June 9 before the Boise City Council. It’s the ﬁrst challenge of its kind faced by the Department of Arts and History.

investigation (BW, News, “Outside the Box,” May 27, 2015). “Looking back at our scoring, it seems very fair.” Pollack said an even bigger red flag was raised when it was revealed that Trademark had snagged perfect scores in the categories of “basic qualifications” and “specific qualifications.” “And we’re not trying to bag on Trademark’s qualification,” Pollack said. “The point here is that there’s no good reason that one company would be that much more qualified than the others.” Trademark and city officials pointed out that the company has fabricated and wrapped the majority of previous traffic box art projects. “The city’s own request for proposal says yes, they will consider the history of previous projects in its evaluation, but nowhere is past performance assigned any point value,” said Pollack. “If

“Jack was born ready to learn,” she said. “I remember the day he was born, with his big bright eyes. He always loved to learn and he has always taken an interest in the environment.” Jennie said it was a recent broadcast of the PBS series Cosmos that got Jack thinking more about CO2. “And I just think that solar energy is the way to go,” Jack said. In his letter to BW, Jack deemed solar energy as “a free gift” and while he conceded that there would be plenty of upfront costs for development and construction, “the pros of solar energy outnumber the cons.” Jack’s mom said it’s natural for her son to talk about solutions. “I love the fact that Jack’s generation is so hopeful about it. They see a problem and offer a solution,” Jennie said. “An older generation? They usually throw their hands up in despair.” A few days later, BW shared Jack’s letter with someone who knows a lot about the climate change debate. Ken Miller, Clean Energy Program director at the Snake River Alliance and a veteran environmental advocate, helped host the recent Northwest Clean and Affordable Energy Conference 8

Trademark was assigned extra points based on its prior work with the city, how are they assigning those points? I promise you, if the other bidders had known that all these points were going to be assigned to past performance, these other companies probably would never have submitted a bid.” Pollack was contacted by the city clerk’s office confirming that she and her client would have the opportunity to stand before the City Council and challenge the bid. Meanwhile, BW’s report has garnered plenty of online comments, primarily from those in Boise’s sign industry, including quite a few defending Trademark, which Pollack says isn’t issue. “It’s business, not personal,” Pollack insisted. “They’re taking this personally and it’s not intended that way. This is a problem for the city, not Trademark.”

in Boise, May 29-30—no elected officials were among the attendees. “Wow,” said Miller when he read Jack’s letter. “Kids get it.” Miller said the conference attendees included “some of the smartest environmental analysts and advocates that there are and, yes, they are very influential.” While a few of the conference presentations were extremely technical, there was a theme that would be familiar to Jack: Renewable energy. “There are some amazing people in this room doing some amazing work,” said Barbara O’Neill, Transmission and Grid Integration Group manager with the National Renewable Energy Lab, speaking about the real possibility of integrating more solar and wind energy into the nation’s power grids. “Great things are possible. Keep doing what you’re doing.” Back at Cecil Andrus, Jack said the letter to BW was the result of an assignment to send a persuasive letter to someone. As with the writing of his letter, the thorny topic was of his own choosing. “I expect this to be a tough issue for a while. But my generation…” he paused for a moment. “Well, we have a lot of hope.”

to tell you the truth,” Kozfkay said. “There isn’t hard data that shows an obvious 8 impact to fish populations. We won’t be able to assess the impact until the fall of 2016; that’s a long way after the fact.” Kozfkay and his colleagues first got calls about the Boise River’s dramatic drop on the morning of Feb. 4. It took them until 1 p.m. to get their rafts to the river and start surveying the effects of the accident. By then, the Barber Dam had been turned back on and flows increased from the usual 240 cubic feet per second (CFS) to 400 CFS, possibly washing away evidence of the impact. Kozfkay said he didn’t see any dead fish that afternoon along the shoreline of the river. He feels confident that large adult fish could have kept up with the change in water level and stayed in the deepest parts of the channels; though, small and adolescent fish living in shallow areas would have been most affected. He said the loss of those fish won’t be apparent for three to five years, when they would have been large enough to be caught by anglers. He doesn’t expect it to be catastrophic, rather a minor setback for the wild trout fishery in the Boise River. “Memories are kind of short,” Kozfkay said. “People will have moved on by then.” Larry James, Enel Green Power’s regional manager for hydroelectric operations, said the company probably won’t take any mitigation efforts until after the fall of 2016, when Fish and Game has completed its fish survey and has a better idea of how many fish were killed. He told attendees at the public meeting that much has been done at Barber Dam to keep this from ever happening again, including quadrupling alarm and notification systems that would alert operators if the dam shut off and the water flow stopped. “I was hopeful that people would have paid more attention to what we’ve done so far,” James said, referring to the testimonies demanding Enel Green Power make significant financial contributions to river restoration projects. James said that after Fish and Game can give Enel a clearer picture of the effects from the dam shut-off, the company is willing to do something. What that something is, however, may not be apparent for a few more years. —Jessica Murri BOISEweekly | JUNE 3–9, 2015 | 9

CITIZEN Speaking of network television, particularly NBC, did you catch your name being dropped recently on Late Night with Seth Meyers? Oh, you mean when Mariska was talking about me.

INGRID MICHAELSON

Before Grey’s Anatomy and after Grey’s Anatomy GEORGE PRENTICE Ingrid Michaelson says coming to Boise is a bit like a homecoming. New York born-and-bred, Michaelson told Boise Weekly she finds an “appreciation and comfort” when she takes the stage in the City of Trees. She will be back for some of that comfort on Monday, June 15, when she returns to the Knitting Factory in Boise. Michaelson’s debut album, Slow the Rain (Cabin 24 Records, 2005), was a modest success. She was accustomed to performing for what she said were “audiences of about 20” in small New Yorkarea nightclubs, when a television producer discovered Michaelson’s music and began using it in episodes of ABC’s hit drama, Grey’s Anatomy. “And then one night there was a line at the club going out the door and down the street,” Michaelson said. “I was wondering who they were waiting to see. It was me.” Since then, her songs have been prominently featured in Old Navy commercials; her single, “Girls Chase Boys,” was the summer 2014 break-out radio hit; a music video of the same name counts more than 2 million hits on YouTube; and she recently released her sixth studio album, Lights Out (Cabin 24, 2014). BW got a few rare minutes with Michaelson, who was in her Brooklyn apartment getting ready to hit the road for her 30-day, 21-city “Summer Night Out Tour.”

Do you like touring? I’ve been able to find a good balance of spending time at home, being rejuvenated and then going back out on tour. In the early days, when I was touring incessantly, it was pretty difficult for me, but now I really enjoy it. Yes, it’s tiring, and it’s hard to be away from home and the people you love, but in touring, I have found this feeling that I really don’t get any other way. It’s pretty amazing. Do you compose when you’re on tour, or do you require a speciﬁc place or energy to focus on your writing? Part of me is always writing; ideas always seem to come up. But in terms of really focused writing, I need to set aside a time for that. I used to write a lot on the road—I would go to the back of the bus or a bathroom just to be alone—but now I’m finding that it’s better for me to set up a writing session. I’m getting more disciplined in that way. Really focused writing needs its own time and space. 10

Do you put your own tours together or is that someone else’s job? I have a pretty big hand in it. This particular tour is going to be bigger in scope. For example… Well, for instance, this is the first time we’ll be traveling with our lighting rig. It has be rebuilt every day and my team is pretty awesome in finding different setups for each location. And the band is great about putting together a number of optional music sets. But at the end of the day, I have total control over what does or doesn’t happen and how things look. You recently appeared on NBC’s Today Show for the second time. That’s a pretty big gig in terms of exposure. It’s very, very, very early. You’re so tired and it’s live, so you have this manic energy, and it’s such a big show. It’s pretty exciting, and it goes by so quickly. And when it’s over, you go home and eat a bagel.

That would be Mariska Hargitay [star of Law and Order: SVU]. What’s that all about? Mariska came to one of my shows a few years ago in New York. I invited Mariska and Taylor Swift and a few other close friends to a very small show I performed last year. So, Mariska and Taylor met each other at my concert and that led to Taylor’s huge new video, “Bad Blood,” which features Mariska. Have you seen that video? It’s intense. I would be remiss if I didn’t ask you about the Grey’s Anatomy experience. I’m assuming that was a tentpole moment in your career. Totally. They were real champions of my music, so my songs popped up in a few spots in the series and then on a season finale. It was one of those moments. Let me put it this way: There [is] before Grey’s Anatomy and after Grey’s Anatomy. I could see the difference in how many people were coming to my shows and in my record sales. That was a huge transition for me. That’s a hyper level of success. Were you prepared for that? You’re never really prepared. You think you are, but everything ebbs and flows. There was a huge buzz that happened immediately, and then it came down a bit, and then it was back up again. It was a surreal experience. Can you speak to the importance of your music being used in television commercials? Your songs are prominently featured in a number of TV ads. Honestly, it’s a way to make a living. It’s a pretty heavy competition out there on the road. There are so many musicians touring and people really aren’t buying records. It’s difficult to make money. All of a sudden, it became acceptable— and even necessary—to license your music. It’s a way to make a living and keep doing what you love to do. Talk to me a bit about performing for Idaho audiences. I’ve been to the Knitting Factory a number of times. Whenever I’ve done a show there… well, it’s hard to put into words. Do you know what it’s like? It’s familial. I really feels like I’m playing for family. They’re a little more laid back but with tons of love. I hear, “Oh, you’re back. We love that you’re back.” I’m pretty excited about coming back.

OVER A BARREL LOCAL BREWERS’ JOKES ABOUT BIG BEER LAND THEM IN HOT WATER

Tara Morgan JEFFREY CLARK LOWE

he night of the most recent Super Bowl, snow was piling up outside McCall’s Salmon River Brewery, but the atmosphere inside was warm, even jovial. That is, until a now notorious Budweiser commercial ﬂashed across the bar’s TV. Backed by a menacing drum beat, the following words stormed across the screen: “Budweiser, proudly a macro beer. It’s not brewed to be fussed over. It’s brewed for a crisp, smooth ﬁnish. This is the only beer beechwood aged since 1876. There’s only one Budweiser. It’s brewed for drinking not dissecting. The people who drink our beer are people who like to drink beer brewed the hard way. Let them sip their pumpkin peach ale, we’ll be brewing us some golden suds. This is the famous Budweiser beer. This Bud’s for you.” The commercial was an obvious slap in the face to craft beer drinkers and a gut-punch to Elysian Brewing, which Budweiser parent company Anheuser-Busch InBev had acquired the week before. That fall, Elysian released a beer called Gourdgia on my Mind, described as “a peach pecan pumpkin amber.”

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Dick Cantwell, a co-founder of Elysian who resigned in April over the acquisition, was understandably unimpressed by the commercial. “I ﬁnd it kind of incredible that ABI would be so tone-deaf as to pretty directly (even if unwittingly) call out one of the breweries they have recently acquired, even as that brewery is dealing with the anger of the beer community in reaction to the sale,” Cantwell told the Chicago Tribune after the Superbowl. Long Island’s Blue Point Brewing Company experienced a similar outcry from the craft beer-drinking community when it was acquired d by AB InBev in February 2014. So did Bend, Ore.-based 10 Barrel when hen ABI picked it up in November 2014. “Like the Blue Point sale, there appears to be a strong sense of local betrayal, as posters on both Blue Point’s and now 10 Barrel’s Facebook pages declare hypocrisy of the local claims when shown in n the reﬂected light of large brewer corporate purchase,” wrote Paul Gatza, director of the Brewers Association, a craft beer trade group. ide That sense of “local betrayal” is central to the ever-widening divide between craft and macro breweries.

Checking with other brewers involved in the BW tasting, we learned two of the six Boise brewers who participated in the article, so I can’t tell you exactly what they were—but the article had received invitations to judge—Kerry Caldwell I know that the judging coordinator, Bob Beckwith, spoke BUBBLING UNDER THE SURFACE with them and said that they would sit out basically this from Edge Brewing Co. and Paul Thomas from Sockeye Landerman, like the other brewers involved in the judgyear,” said Smith. “He explained to them our policy, which ing controversy, was cautious about speaking out publicly Brewing—but the others had not. “[Thomas had] been doing it for over 12 years, so he had basically is exactly what your mother told you: ‘If you don’t for fear of what it might mean for their festival entries, even emailed the guy in charge with a list of all the brewers from have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.’” their careers.

anything about it that it’s not going to do any good either.” In Landerman’s opinion, the issue is emblematic of a much larger problem bubbling under the surface of the beer industry. “I think that in the climate where there’s growing dislike between craft breweries and mega breweries—there always has been, but [it has] obviously gotten worse with the acquisitions and the falling market share of big beer,” he said. “I think that climate has just gotten a little more tense and this is just one of those facets.” Ganz has experienced this tense climate ﬁrsthand. Salmon River Brewery received a fair amount of backlash from the craft beer community when Adolphus A. Busch IV, the son of late-Anheuser-Busch magnate August “Gussie” Anheuser Busch Jr., purchased a minority stake in the company in 2013. “He never operated Budweiser, his older half-brother did that,” said Ganz. “But every time Budweiser acquires a new craft brewery—say, like 10 Barrel—we just get totally torn up, like, ‘Salmon River already got bought by Budweiser.’ So a lot of people think Salmon River, we’re another arm of AB InBev, but it’s not true at all. “There’s a lot of misconceptions out there and that tells me, if I have to go out on social media and try to put those ﬁres out, there’s something going on with craft fans,” he added. “From an industry standpoint, I think for sure there’s a rift. Absolutely, unequivocally, there’s a rift between macro and craft brewers.” That rift makes sense, both numerically and historically. Though craft beer currently comprises only $19.6 billion of America’s $101.5 billion beer industry, it’s growing

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

rapidly. In 2014, craft beer sales jumped 17.6 percent by volume. Craft beer’s increasing popularity also signals a major shift in American consumer values. In November 2014, the Wall Street Journal reported that among 21- to 27-year-old drinkers, 44 percent had never tried Budweiser. Millennials are more open to experimenting with new products and brands—especially ones that are locally made. “I think it’s worth pausing a moment and appreciating how important this seachange is,” wrote Bart Watson, chief economist for the Brewers Association. “When looking at the longue duree [long term] of the beer industry, the 100 years from the 1870s to the 1970s were the opposite of this. They were a century of scale beating small-town production, national marketing campaigns trumping local word of mouth and a slow shift away from beer markets organized by the distance you could ship fresh beer in a horse drawn cart to ones organized around national networks, refrigerated railcars, industrial efﬁciency and national brands. It’s taken a lot of hard work on the part of determined small brewers, but local beer is back, and based on the numbers, it’s here to stay.”

FERMENTING UNREST

Even though they won’t be allowed in the judging room at NABA this year, the brewers BW spoke to still paid to enter beers in the competition. “We went ahead and entered just because we feel like we have some good beer, and we just want to see how it does,” said Landerman. “I’m not super jazzed about participating and paying the money, but at the same time

I feel like if I don’t participate and boycott, that they’re in some way winning still.” Some of the brewers were worried their beers might not be treated fairly in the competition. “Clearly they’re showing bias,” said one brewer. “They blacklisted just a few people because of this article.” Caldwell, of Edge Brewing, understands their skepticism. “It’s supposed to be a complete blind taste test for the judges. However, I would feel weird about it if I were them. ... I don’t think anyone’s going to do anything shady, but there’s always that level of paranoia,” she said. Though Caldwell added that it’s “odd” some of her peers were not invited to judge in the competition, she understands NABA’s rationale. “I imagine if you know someone is going to be judging your beer [who] says your beer tastes like hobo piss, you obviously wouldn’t want to invite that judge to come judge your beer,” Caldwell said. “I can’t say that I blame them; I don’t know how I feel about the sort of Big Brother theme of it all, but I don’t blame them.” Ganz, on the other hand, wishes NABA had dealt with the controversy in a less severe way. “Ultimately, it’s their decision to make, but it made me sad… It’s one of those deals where I wish there could’ve been a different way to address it,” he said. “Clearly it sends the message that they were upset about the article but sometimes, especially with satirical stuff, sometimes you think you’re putting the ﬁre out but you might just be throwing gasoline on it.”

They formed the band Stratos Felix and despite only graduating high school in 2014, the band’s complex, alt-rock melodies sound more mature than the members’ years. The trio will celebrate the release of Stratos Felix’s debut studio album, Are We Live?, with a performance at the Record Exchange (1105 W. Idaho St.). Are We Live? was recorded at AudioLab Recording Studio and produced by longtime local musician Rocci Johnson. The show opens at 6 p.m. with Bri Ortiz, a 20-year-old local singer/songwriter featured on the album. Stratos Felix will then take to Record Exchange’s cool, new permanent stage.

BUILT TO SPILL, JUNE 5-6, CRAZY HORSE Even if their oeuvre consists of numerous full-lengths, EPs and singles, there are bands for which the release of a new studio album is cause for a big celebration. Case in point: Built to Spill and its latest, Untethered Moon (Warner Bros., April 2015). This stunning release is particularly exciting because it has been a stretch since the band’s last studio LP and because rejoicing in a new BTS release is not only about the music. Instead, like with any other longtime, inﬂuential band, it is also about appreciating the fact that BTS is still doing what it does so well and still putting it out there. Plus, it’s even better when you can share the revelry with the band, which you can do when Duck Club Presents two nights of BTS live at the Crazy Horse with the awesome Clarke and the Himselfs opening.

NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL, JUNE 8, KNITTING FACTORY Though Neutral Milk Hotel released only two studio LPs in its non-consecutive 20-plus year history, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea (Merge Records, 1998) is considered one of the most inﬂuential indie/folk albums, and along with NMH frontman Jeff Mangum, one of the most enigmatic: A 2008 Slate Magazine article was titled “The Salinger of Indie Rock: Where is Jeff Mangum?” ITAOTS is a concept album inﬂuenced by Anne Frank’s The Diary of a Young Girl, its lyrics as inscrutable as its creator—in “Communist Daughter,”Mangum sings of the “Sweet communist / The communist daughter / Standing on the sea-weed water / Semen stains the mountain tops.” ITAOTS is also an innovative, exquisite work made all the more so by the fact that it stands apart not only in the NMH discography but in the collective indie-rock canon as a whole. —Amy Atkins With Robert Schneider. 8 p.m., $30-$60.

WINESIPPER Nothing against pinot grigio. It’s the most popular of Italian whites, but there are any number of other delicious white wines hailing from that country. While the popularity of easy drinking, readily available pinot grigio is understandable—moving outside that comfort zone reveals intriguing alternatives with a bit more character. Here are the panel’s top three “not pinot grigio” picks: 2012 ARGIOLAS S’ELEGAS NURAGUS DI CAGLIARI, $156 The grape here, native to Sardinia, is nuragus, which is also the name for the ancient stone huts that dot that island. A bit of bottle aging has resulted in a darker, golden colored wine with unctuous honeysuckle and candied stone fruit aromas, along with a soft hit of sage. The palate is just as rich, marked by honeyed melon and lime, balanced by crisp acidity and citrus zest. 2013 MARCHETTI VERDICCHIO DEI CASTELLI DI JESI, $16 The Marche region borders the Adriatic on the east coast of central Italy—verdicchio is the primary white wine grape there. This Marchetti offers intense ripe white peach and melon aromas, backed by mineral and an intriguing hint of jalapeno. The flavors are round, ripe and richly textured, offering apricot and lemon custard flavors with a long, lingering finish. 2014 VESEVO BENEVENTANO FALANGHINA, $20 Grown in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius in Italy’s Campania region, falanghina is an ancient variety dating back to early Roman times. This wine’s floral melon aromas are colored by touches of spring greens, herb and ginger. The lively tropical fruit flavors have a light creaminess and smooth texture that turns racy on the crisp finish. —David Kirkpatrick 28 | JUNE 3–9, 2015 | BOISEweekly

ROTARY SUSHI

New conveyor-belt sushi spot opens on Fairview TARA MORGAN The first kaiten-zushi, or conveyor belt sushi shop, opened in Japan in 1958. From there, the fast food sushi concept slowly crept across the world. In the Treasure Valley, Shige Express has owned the floating sushi boat scene for the past few years—with two locations that serve small plates that drift by diners in a revolving moat. Now there is a new rotating sushi spot in town—fittingly called Rotary Sushi—that has ditched the water for shiny, stainless steel belts. an unnamed sake.

offerings like the salmon skin salad ($5.99) and the baby tako salad ($4.99), which features five or so tender baby octopuses tossed a reddish brown, sesame-heavy sauce with a sprinkle of green onions and sesame seeds. The pork gyoza ($4.99), while not unusual, are unusually juicy and encased in a crisp, not-too-doughy shell. Perhaps the most unique item during a recent visit to Rotary Sushi was an order of fresh uni nigiri ($7.99), or sea urchin roe, which had been special-ordered from Seattle. The vivid, mustard yellow roe from the spiny sea animal had a mildly sweet, briny taste and a texture that fell somewhere between mushy avocado and custard. It was definitely an experience—but maybe not one to be repeated. A visit to Rotary Sushi should be repeated, though. It’s a welcome addition to a neighborhood lacking a diversity of options.

FOOD/NEWS GAUCHO’S, THE DRUNKEN PANCAKE AND NEGRONI WEEK Move over Orange Julius, there’s now a local, family owned Argentine restaurant at the Boise Towne Square Mall. Gaucho’s: A Taste of Argentina opened May 26 in the food court and primarily offers empanadas, served baked or fried. On Gaucho’s menu, owners George and Elida Sileoni—originally from Argentina but now living in Caldwell—include everything from a traditional empanada with ground beef, onion, green olives and hard-boiled egg; to breakfast empanadas with bacon, egg and cheese. For those with a sweet tooth, there are also smaller dessert empanada choices like Nutella and banana or dulce de leche. Besides empanadas, the spot also serves a couple of sandwiches, like the choripan: grilled sausage on a French hoagie topped with chimichurri. In other opening news, The Drunken Pancake food cart is now slinging beer-infused ﬂapjacks—in ﬂavors like Redd’s Strawberry Ale and Rogue Hazelnut Nutella—to downtowners until 2:30 a.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Owners Adam Smith and Katy Croswell get their griddle going weekend nights near Sixth and Main streets. From the company’s website: “At The Drunken Pancake, we love two

things: Pancakes and beer! What better way to enjoy them than combining them together? It’s always a good time for breakfast. That is why we are open late night to satisfy those drunken cravings.” For more on The Drunken Pancake, visit facebook.com/drunkenpancake. In even boozier news, we’re currently in the midst of Negroni Week, a magical week when bars across the world honor the classic cocktail made with gin, Campari and sweet vermouth by hosting special events to benefit various charities. Locally, Red Feather Lounge, Saint Lawrence Gridiron, Juniper and The Mode have teamed up to host a Negroni Week Passport Contest, which ends Sunday, June 7. Pick up a passport at any of the above bars, and get a stamp for each Negroni variation you sample. Once you get a stamp from every spot, you’ll be entered into a prize drawing—first place is a $50 gift certificate to all four establishments. Each bar will donate $1 from every Negroni purchase to a charity of their choice. Outside of the Eighth Street area, The Modern Hotel is also celebrating Negroni Week by mixing up four featured Negronis. The bar will donate $1 from each cocktail to Interfaith Sanctuary. —Tara Morgan BOISE WEEKLY.COM

DUOLINGO Speaking only one language can be limiting. It may cause anxiety about traveling abroad; it can hinder getting a job promotion or, in some cases, even getting a job. What’s worse, becoming fluent in a non-native tongue can become more difficult with each passing jaar (year); it can be time-consuming, frustrating and boring; and language software and classes are often prohibitively expensive. No te preocupes (Don’t worry). Duolingo makes learning more than a dozen languages easy and entertaining—and it’s gratis (free). Duolingo is a simple app and website created by Carnegie Mellon computer-science professor Luis von Ahn (who also created the duolingo.com, free human-detection system CAPTCHA). Duolingo currently offers courses in a dozen languages for English speakers and American English courses for speakers of nearly 20 languages, and it’s more like a videogame than traditional language-learning software: Users earn badges, virtual currency and XP for completing desafios (challenges), with successes signaled by a cheery, encouraging horn blast. Duolingo is nearly as verslavend (addictive) as any matchthree cluiche (game) and unlike with Candy Crush, Duolingo users walk away with valuable real-world znannya (knowledge). —Amy Atkins BOISE WEEKLY.COM

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): The Persian scholar Avicenna was so well-rounded in his knowledge that he wrote two different encyclopedias. Even as a teenager he was obsessed with learning all he could. He got especially consumed with trying to master Aristotle’s Metaphysics, which did not easily yield its secrets to him. He read it 40 times, memorizing every word. When he finally understood it, he was so excited he celebrated by giving out money and gifts to destitute strangers. I suspect you will soon be having an equivalent breakthrough, Aries. At last you will grasp a truth that has eluded you for a long time. Congratulations in advance! TAURUS (April 20-May 20): When it’s rush hour in Tokyo, unwieldy crowds of commuters board the trains and subways. They often need help at squeezing in. Railway workers known as oshiya, or pushers, provide the necessary force. Wearing crisp uniforms, white gloves and neat hats, they cram the last stragglers into each car. I foresee the possibility of you being called on to perform a metaphorical version of the service these pushers provide. Is there a polite and respectful way for you to be indelicate in a worthy cause? Could you bring light-hearted tact to bear as you seek an outcome that encourages everyone to compromise?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Nobel Prize-winning physicists Wolfgang Pauli and Niels Bohr were both amused at how counterintuitive their innovative theories seemed. Once Pauli was lecturing a group of eminent scientists about a radical new hypothesis. Bohr got out of his seat in the audience and walked up to the front to interrupt his colleague. “We all agree that your theory is crazy,” Bohr told Pauli. “The question that divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct. My own feeling is that it is not crazy enough.” Pauli defended himself. “It is crazy enough!” he said. But Bohr was insistent. “It’s not crazy enough!” he argued. I’m going to pose a comparable query to you, Gemini. Are your new ideas and possibilities crazy enough to be true? Make sure they are. CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ve wandered into an awkward phase of your cycle. Missed connections have aroused confusion. Disjointed events have led to weirdness. I’ve got a suggestion for how you might be able to restore clarity and confidence: Make a foray into a borderland and risk imaginative acts of heroism. Does that sound too cryptic or spooky? How about if I say it like this: Go on an unpredictable quest that will free your trapped vitality, or try a mysterious experiment that will awaken your sleeping magic. P.S. For best results, ask for help every step of the way.

32 | JUNE 3–9, 2015 | BOISEweekly

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Gesamtkunstwerk is a German word that can be translated as “total art work” or “all-embracing art form.” It refers to a creative masterpiece that makes use of several genres. The 19th century composer Richard Wagner had this in mind when he produced his opera cycle The Ring of the Nibelung, which included orchestral music, singing, theater and literature. I’m invoking the spirit of Gesamtkunstwerk for your use, Leo. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to synthesize and coordinate all the things you do best, and express them with a flourish. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Defender was a popular video game that young people played in video arcades during the 1980s. Fifteen-year-old Steve Juraszek was profiled in Time magazine after he racked up a recordbreaking 16 million points while playing the game for 16 hours straight. But when his high-school principal found out that Juraszek had skipped classes to be at the arcade, he was suspended. I’m wondering if there may soon be a similar development in your own life, Virgo. Will you have to pay a small price for your success? You should at least be prepared to risk an acceptable loss in order to accomplish an important goal.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): People I meet are sometimes taken aback by the probing questions I ask them. Recently an acquaintance said to me, “Why don’t you feel driven to talk about yourself all the time, like everyone else?” I told him the truth: “Being curious is just the way I was made. Maybe it’s because of my Mercury in Gemini, or my seventh-house sun or my three planets in Libra.” I suspect that you are due to go through a phase similar to the mode I’m so familiar with. If it doesn’t happen naturally, I suggest you coax it out. You need to be extra inquisitive. You’ll benefit from digging as deeply as you dare. The more information you uncover, the better your decisions will be. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): I love to watch an evolved Scorpio get his or her needs met by helping other people get their needs met. It’s thrilling to behold the paradoxical Scorpio assets in action: the combination of manipulativeness and generosity; the animal magnetism working in service to the greater good; the resourceful willpower that carries out hidden agendas and complex strategies designed to make the world a better place. I expect to see a lot of this idiosyncratic wisdom from you in the coming weeks. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Would that life were like the shadow cast by a wall or a tree,”

says the Talmud. “But it is like the shadow of a bird in flight.” That’s a lyrical sentiment, but I don’t agree with it. I’ve come to prefer the shimmering dance over the static stance. The ever-shifting play of light and dark is more interesting to me than the illusion of stability. I feel more at home in the unpredictable flow than in the stagnant trance of certainty. What about you, Sagittarius? I suggest that in the immediate future you cultivate an appreciation for the joys and challenges of the shimmering dance. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The core of your horoscope comes from the poem “A Color of the Sky” by Tony Hoagland. Imagine that you are the “I” who is saying the following: “What I thought was an end turned out to be a middle. What I thought was a brick wall turned out to be a tunnel. What I thought was an injustice turned out to be a color of the sky.” Please understand, Capricorn, that speaking these words might not make total sense to you yet. You may have to take them on faith until you gather further evidence. But I urge you to speak them anyway. Doing so will help generate the transformations you need in order to make them come true. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Lessons in luck are coming your way. Will they help you attract more luck? Maybe. Will they show

you how to make better use of your luck? Maybe. A lot depends on your ability to understand and love the paradox of luck. I’ve assembled a few enigmatic teachings to prepare you: 1. “Luck is believing you’re lucky.”—Tennessee Williams. 2. “It is a great piece of skill to know how to guide your luck even while waiting for it.”—Baltasar Gracián. 3. “Sometimes not getting what you want is a brilliant stroke of luck.”—Lorii Myers. 4. “The harder I work, the luckier I get.”—Samuel Goldwyn. 5. “You’ve got to try your luck at least once a day, because you could be going around lucky all day and not even know it.”—Jimmy Dean. 6. “Go and wake up your luck.”—Persian proverb. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The word boudoir means a woman’s bedroom. But hundreds of years ago, it had a more specific definition. It was a room where a well-bred girl was sent when she was pouting. Boudoir is derived from the French verb bouder, which means “to sulk.” If it were in my power, Pisces, I would send you to the sulking room right now. In fact, I would encourage you to sulk. In my opinion, a good long sulk would be just the right prescription for you. It would trigger brainstorms about how to change the soggy, foggy conditions that warranted your sulking in the first place. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Top spelling searches on Google in the U.S. over the past year (the topranked search term for Idaho—which ranked ﬁrst for Google spelling assistance—was “antelope”):

1. How do you spell the color grey

Dear Minerva Jayne, My brother is engaged to get married and has asked me to be his best man. I haven’t seen him in six years, with only the occasional, surface level conversation. My family is devoutly Mormon, and my parents cut me out of their lives after I came out as gay. My brother and I have never been close. Should I agree to be a part of the wedding party, or just drop off my gift and take my cake to go? —Bee in a Bind

3. How do you spell deﬁnitely 4. How do you spell horderves 5. How do you spell pneumonia 6. How do you spell appreciate

Dear Bee in a Bind, Returning to the “hive” is a daunting proposal. Does your brother accept you for who you are, including your sexuality? Has he made any attempt at building a relationship since your parents cast you out of their lives? If so, don’t punish your brother for the sins of your parents. If you think his request is sincere, take this chance to reconcile. If your intuition tells you otherwise, decline his invitation and wish him well. Wedding cake isn’t worth the sting of heartbreak. Whether or not your family will ever shake their rigid views of your sexuality, you deserve to be respected and loved. You are more than a photo-op on one day of their lives. Unsure? Talk to him. You don’t need to live your life as just another bee in the trap. Good luck!
