IN MEMORIAM: KEN VIRDENI didn’t really know Ken Virden, but you didn’t have to know

him well to see he was a special person. I had seen him on mul-tiple occasions, almost always when I was drinking at 10th Street Station. He was the old guy sitting at the bar, perpetually smiling and chatting up whoever was nearby. With a crop of high-and-tight gray hair and twinkle in his eye, I could tell he was a local fixture. He had a handshake and a hug for even casual acquain-tances. As far as I could tell he wasn’t there to drink. He just liked to be around people, and they him.

It wasn’t until a year or so ago that I finally met Ken through a mutual friend. (Odds are, if you’ve spent any amount of time sampling Boise’s downtown nightlife, you had a mutual friend with Ken). I shook his hand, he commented on my height and immediately started poking fun at our friend for leaving his beautiful girlfriend alone on a barstool. That was the extent of my personal relationship with Ken.

What I learned about him, though, was remarkable. Born June 21, 1923 in Dalton City, Ill., his family suffered heavily during the Great Depression. He lied about his age and joined the Army, where he trained as a paratrooper. An ankle injury led to his becoming a B-24 tail gunner during World War II—a time when odds of completing a tour of duty were one in four. He met his future wife at a USO dance in Boise and they were married in Kuna in 1946. He returned to Boise in 1955 and served 32 years in the Air National Guard, retiring as a master sergeant and later receiving the rank of chief master sergeant. He worked in warehouses, funeral homes and, ultimately, at Yellowstone Na-tional Park. He was a member of the Optimists, Jobs Daughters, Scottish and York rites, Shriners and Masons.

Ken passed away Aug. 20, surrounded by his children, at a Boise hospital. He was 92.

It is a testament to the man that his Facebook page remains filled with reminiscences from people of all stripes and all with a common theme: Ken touched a lot of people’s lives, even if it was as trivial as sharing a barroom and a handshake

For all of those bewildered souls who watch the Trump thing on their television sets, shake their heads as though to drive the grunting of his boorish beastliness from their ears and mutter to themselves in horror How can this be happen-ing?... I believe I have the answer.

First, don’t go to feeling like there’s something wrong with you because you feel so perplexed by this whole weird, disturbing, icky, stomach-turning phantasmagoria. You are not alone. Be assured, there are millions and millions of Americans who feel the same way. If you, too, watch that noxious windbag and feel the gorge rising in your throat and the outrage rumbling in your bowels over the bullshit spewing from his perpetually flapping lips... if you, too, tremble at the thought you may have to hear his nonstop self-aggrandizement, his mean-spirited mockery, his abject ignorance and his outright lies for another 15 months, that puts you firmly on the morally correct side of the decent-human-behav-ior/twisted-mass-derangement divide.

Obvious to you and me, it is the twisted-mass-derangement faction that is driving the surge of this Trump thing. Without the hysterical stam-pede of a certain subspecies of vitriol-breathing, intellectually empty ghouls—commonly referred to as the “Republican base”—this Trump thing would not exist—at least, not in its present incar-nation (i.e., the leading GOP candidate for the office of president of the United States).

Why him over all the other monstrous aber-rations around which these walking deadheads might be a’flocking? Why not the repellant Ted Cruz?... the love-child of Joe McCarthy mating with a lipless lizard in a Purgatory reserved for the cold-blooded. Why is his recipe for toxic slime not attracting the ghouls?

What about Mike Huckabee? You’d think his pomposity would slake their lust for treacherous ambition barely hidden beneath a cloak of down-home piety. Or Scott Walker, he with his fawning eagerness to kiss the ring of his Koch overlords. Walker easily meets all the conditions of corrup-tion, cruelty, conniving and covert fascism that are de rigueur for a modern conservative idol.

Carly Fiorina? Ben Carson? Are they serious? Or are they just auditioning for the vacant spot once occupied by Sarah Palin?

And Rick Perry! Hey, if it’s numbing stupidity they seek from their candidate, why bother to look any further than Rick?

We can certainly understand why this sham-bling herd can get none of that feeding frenzy rush out of Lindsey Graham, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush and Rand Paul. Not only do those candi-dates have the demeanor, the imagination and

the charisma of an assistant manager at an Iowa Wal-Mart, the only thing we’ve learned from any of them after a summer of campaigning is that we were wrong to think of Jeb as “the smart one.” He just enunciates better than his brother, that’s all.

As for the rest? It almost seems like a waste of time to make sure I’m spelling their names right. Is it Gin-doll or Shun-dull? Kasich?... is that a name or a skin condition? Christie, Gilmore, Santorum, Pataki... gack! Sounds like the sup-porting cast of an Adam Sandler movie.

Still, why Trump? Of all that potential for an embarrassing and catastrophic presidency the GOP has proffered, why are the ghouls prostrat-ing themselves before this caricature of a human being? And please, don’t say it’s because “He tells it like it is.” Ha! These inarticulate lumps can’t even tell you what the “it” is that the Trump thing is supposedly telling them what it’s like.

No, the answer is far simpler. The root of the phenomenon is that the Republican slate isn’t a slate it’s a mob, and I can’t believe even half of them ever seriously thought they had a shot. Of the sitting governors, most if not all of them know they wouldn’t even win in their own states, they are so unpopular at home. They’re out fishing for a book deal, a new career speaking at fringy conventions or to worm their way into Roger Ailes’ heart, because they know come the next gubernatorial election, they’ll be looking for a new place to hang their hats.

I suspect the only reason the rest of them are in it is because, for one reason or another, they are currently unemployed. One never has to worry about having a roof over his head or some food in his belly when he’s running for president, does he? It’s like a welfare system for used-up politicians who have nowhere else to go.

The point is, 17 bland faces are far too many to throw at people who probably can’t remember the names of the other members of their bowling team. So what have the ghouls done in response to such a swirl of sameness? What any simple-minded creature does when confused by the monotony of its surroundings: He focuses on the shiny thing. The thing that stands out, if even just little bit, from the dull uniformity of the choices before him. The thing that’s loudest, flashiest, gaudiest, cheesiest, chintziest in the lineup.

It’s a frightening spectacle, but there are far more people repelled by this Trump thing than attracted to it. So take heart, ye of discerning mind. What we’re seeing is nothing more than the thing that glimmers at the bottom of the cesspool. The most obnoxious fart in a farting contest. Like even the beastliest of farts, it will dissipate and be carried away with the breeze.

My third-grade teacher at Ketchum Elementary School should never have been allowed near chil-dren. Her favorite form of discipline was ham-mering her students between the shoulder blades with the flat of her hand. The sight of an 8-year-old boy being hit this way—head snapping back, arms flailing, mouth open and moaning—was educational, especially if you were an 8-year-old. I spent the whole year in a state of terror.

I busied myself with the mimeographed extra-credit assignment slips that were stored in a bin on the wall. You took a slip from the bin and learned to use a spelling word in a sentence, or found a country on a map, or worked a long divi-sion problem. You handed it in with your regular schoolwork. I did so many of these I attracted the attention of the district guidance counselor, who put me through a series of cognitive tests and decreed that I was to skip fourth grade and go directly to fifth the following September.

That was in early May. Third grade was almost over, but I was no longer the drab little student in the corner, the one a bit silly about extra credit. I got my beating in Music Period, for singing the first verse of the Star Spangled Banner twice, instead of going on to the second. I had never understood the second stanza, but the teacher sang out its words to the slap of her palm on my back and I finally understood it then.

I discovered the violence of skipping a grade when I had to fight all the fifth-grade boys on the playground to find my place in the pecking order of the class. I had escaped a far worse experience: One night that February the fourth-grade teacher hung herself in her garage, necessitating sessions with the guidance counselor for all fourth-graders and lots more tests before everybody could be declared whole.

The next year, our sixth-grade teacher, screaming in rage, ripped off a student’s shirt and began chasing him around the classroom. Finally cornered, the kid jumped out a second-story window into the snow.

Our seventh-grade teacher had a paddle made of a sawn-off boat oar, and used it as his personal mood stabilizer. Once when I was late for class, he kicked me hard enough to lift me off the floor. The bruise lasted for weeks.

I’m not making any of this up. Later, when I was a teacher myself, I recognized my grade-school teachers as tormented human beings, victims of domestic battering or of mental illness, poverty or deep social isolation, or they were just people doing the best they could in an institu-tional climate that found it normal to beat the crap out of kids.

Ten years ago I asked my mother—whose

normally tactful nature had by then been unfenced by the early stages of Alzheimer’s—if she knew what had gone on in my third-grade class. She had, and by way of explanation said my teacher had been a beautiful woman once and never gotten over getting old. “No excuse for beating up little kids,” I said.

“She could have benefited from psycho-therapy,” my mother admitted. She smiled. “Those days, everybody in Ketchum could have benefited from psychotherapy. That’s why we lived in Hailey.”

My sixth-grade teacher ended up running a small antique shop on the Oregon Coast with his partner, but in Ketchum he was barely hanging on as a straight married man with a wife and kids and a job that didn’t pay much and a classroom full of 11-year-olds who laughed at him. The teacher who hung herself did so in the midst of a severe seasonal depression. In those days a diagnosis of depression got you a prescription for Dexedrine, which wasn’t good for anybody’s long-term prognosis.

The year I began teaching seventh-grade Eng-lish I saw my old seventh-grade teacher in a coffee shop, and sat down across a table from him. I told him I was following in his footsteps. “Don’t kick anyone,” he said. “You’ll get sued.”

These days, I occasionally run into my former opponents in those fifth-grade playground fights. From our conversations, which are always cordial and all about the stunning news that we’ve gotten old, I’m pretty sure I’m the only one who re-members fighting. The pecking order is different now. If your joints work, if your lungs still pull oxygen, if your heart still pumps blood, if you’ve benefited from psychotherapy—you’re right there at the top.

In the early ’90s, my third-grade teacher, still living in Hailey and incredibly aged, was walking home from the pharmacy and fell down in a snowbank and wasn’t found until a day later. She died after a couple of weeks. Third grade came back in a flood of memory. “Serves her right,” I thought. That might seem uncharitable if not unforgiving, but not when you consider she had finally escaped a life so long she had spent most of it miserable about her lost beauty.

My teaching career was mostly violence-free. I identified with the frightened students in my classes, and taking care of them turned out to be a good way of taking care of the rest of the class. But if I could go back to Ketchum Elementary School, in 1958, that’s not the first thing I would tell my old teachers. The first thing would be, “Go easy on these kids. Some of them might have long memories.”

P IS FOR PRE-K

Two Boise schools prepare for pre-K in November

GEORGE PRENTICE

Effecting social change in a community can often require millions of dollars, political capital and, as the saying goes, it can take a village. Sometimes, however, it can be done with frogs, lily pads and a bit of sand.

Those three unlikely elements will be key ingredients in the city of Boise’s most ambitious social project to date: Partnering to introduce pre-kindergarten learning to the Vista neighborhood, which is bordered by Federal Way, the New York Canal and Roosevelt Street.

The 140 or so 4-year-olds in the Vista area aren’t different from most Idaho kids but, begin-ning this November, things will be different for 60 of them as they will begin spending four hours per day preparing for a childhood full of engaged learning. That’s where the frogs, lily pads and sand come in.

“As an outsider, you may think it’s controlled chaos, but it’s truly developmentally appropri-ate,” said Stacey Roth, administrator of Student Programs for the Boise School District. “Picture a number of stations around a classroom. One might be a large table of sand where kids are drawing out their first letters. The kids think they’re playing in the sand, but the directions are quite specific about forming those letters. Then at others, kids are learning math with a large lily pad and five frogs, but when one of the frogs jumps off the pad, the kids are doing math. Over at another station, kids are pouring water into containers, identifying volume.”

The stations will be created with those young learners in mind.

“They’re teeny tiny. Those hands and arms of a 4-year-old can be pretty short,” said Roth.

That’s about the only tiny thing in Boise’s pre-K plan. The partnership with the Boise School District has already attracted a who’s who list of financial donors: commitments have been secured from United Way of the Treasure Valley ($50,000); Micron ($25,000); Wells Fargo ($5,000); the Idaho Statesman ($5,000); and others. Nearly $100,000 has been raised to date. The start-up costs—covering equipment and supplies—will total approximately $80,000 and ongoing annual expenses are expected to be $182,000.

The city of Boise is committed, as well.“You can look at the city as a bit of a guaran-

tor,” said Diana Lachiondo, director of Com-

munity Partnerships in Boise Mayor Dave Bieter’s office. “We know what this will cost and whatever we don’t raise from our partners, the city will fund whatever is left over.”

Add to that the substantial in-kind donations from the Boise School District: administration and classroom space.

“We’ve already identified the classrooms at Hawthorne and Whitney elementary schools,” said Roth.

It’s no accident that parents living near the two schools in the Vista neighborhood will have the first crack at pre-K. The initiative is the first major outcome of the city’s Energize Our Neighbor-hoods program, which in turn is part of Boise’s Lasting, Innovative and Vibrant, or LIV, brand.

“You hear us say ‘Boise is livable,’ but we have to ask how livable a neighborhood is,” said Lachiondo. “And when we look at Vista, it’s not a bad neighborhood by any means. In fact, in some ways, it’s a great neighborhood. That said, it has challenges and opportunities, and there are enough of them that we think we can make meaningful change.”

Statistics on Vista neighborhood children reveal significant needs.

At Hawthorne Elementary, 72 percent of students are eligible for free or reduced lunch. It’s an even higher 83 percent at Whitney. Compare those numbers to the citywide average of approxi-mately 45 percent.

According to the Idaho Reading Indicator, a benchmark used to measure a student’s ability to name and sound out the letters of the alphabet, nearly 50 percent of 5-year-olds within the boundaries of the Vista neighborhood are not “ready” for kindergarten. This is in spite of the fact that Idaho Kids Count, a nonprofit organiza-

tion focused on ”research-based discussions to improve outcomes for Idaho’s children,” reminds us that children who are “school-ready” are more likely to succeed in school both in and out of the classroom. Kids Count says prepared kids are statistically more likely to be successful readers, have better social and emotional health, are more likely to graduate from high school and go on to postsecondary education, and are less likely to commit crime as juveniles and adults.

The Idaho Legislature, however, continues to roadblock any effort to support state-funded preschool. A number of advocates say the Legis-lature’s reluctance toward pre-K probably stems from the fact the Gem State doesn’t even require children to go to kindergarten.

The Idaho Reading Indicator shows 62 percent of Boise kindergartners have a sufficient literacy score. Only 53 percent of Hawthorne students and 51 percent at Whitney meet expectations.

“These numbers are compelling. But it also raises a bigger question: What do the kids think about school, not just academically, if socially and emotionally?” Lachiondo asked. “If you’re starting out with frustration on day one in kindergarten, you’re not set up very well.”

Studies show that for every $3,000 investment in a child for pre-K, the economy gets a mini-mum 7 percent return on investment through less remedial learning, less job training, greater opportunity for successful employment and less strain on social welfare safety nets.

Two major questions still loom for policymak-ers: how will they keep the lights on, and is it the city’s responsibility to do what the Idaho Legislature won’t?

For their part, city officials say they don’t have the time or energy to wait for—

BOISE STATE FINE ARTS BUILDING PROPOSED TO ELIMINATE 328 PARKING SPACES

When architects go public with their plans for a new Boise State University Fine Arts Building, one question will most certainly surface: Where will the parking go?

Developers say the proposed build-ing, which would face Capitol Boulevard, would be between the Micron Business and Economics Building and the Barnes Towers dormitory along the Boise Greenbelt, would eliminate approximately 328 parking spaces. Meanwhile, Boise State officials insist they have plenty of spaces to take accommodate students, faculty and staff. Currently, Boise State owns/operates 6,780 parking spaces and during peak hours of operation (10 a.m. to 3 p.m.), there is an estimated average of 1,100 empty spaces, according to Boise State officials. Additionally, according to the univer-sity’s vehicle parking standard, there should be parking spaces for at least 80 percent of faculty and 30 percent of full-time students. When putting those percentages next to the 2014-2015 census of faculty and staff, it equates to 5,213 spaces.

The proposed designs for the Fine Arts Building require height and setback excep-tions from the city of Boise. The city’s height limit on the site is 75 feet, but developers point to the Micron building, which is more than 84 feet tall. Developers said they want a more uniform look for the buildings when they move forward with their plans, which include a large corner window on the southeast side of the building and another expanse of glass on the north where views into the gallery will be seen from southbound traffic on Capitol Boulevard.

“The upper slender section is filled with glass from floor to ceiling that is set back to control western sunlight,” wrote Scott Henson of LCA Architects. “During the day on the interior of the building, this area is used for a gathering and critique area for students on all levels. At night, it will become a beacon for the arts on campus with light flowing out onto Capitol Boulevard.”

The Boise Planning and Zoning Commis-sion will get a closer look at the plans during its Monday, Oct. 12 session.

‘BEYOND 75’Study indicates Bogus needs snowmaking, higher prices

JESSICA MURRI

At the beginning of the summer, Bogus Basin Mountain Recreation Area—with the help of the city of Boise—launched a $60,000 feasibility study conducted by SE Group, a national resort consultancy firm with an office in Ketchum. The firm hosted an open house Sept. 1 at the High-lands Event Center in Boise, where it unveiled its findings on how to help the ski resort, which has been hit with lagging revenue and low-snow years.

The bottom line: Bogus needs to invest in robust snowmaking, increase summer recreation opportunities and raise prices.

Nearly 200 people packed the room as SE Group President Ted Beeler went through slide after slide detailing the plights facing Bogus Basin, including a bout of dwarf mistletoe plaguing the forest.

He detailed a wish list compiled from surveys of mountain users and managers, which included detachable quads to replace the Coach and Morn-ing Star lifts as well as upgraded lodges and a larger marketing department.

None of that is possible if Bogus keeps charg-ing so little for lift tickets and season passes.

“Price structure is the heart of the issue,” Beeler told the audience. “In the past several years, comparable ski areas have raised their day lift tickets from $71 to $85. Bogus went from $48 to $49. This is obviously not a sustainable business model. Even as a not-for-profit, Bogus needs to generate a profit to make improvements.”

The study, which will be completed in Octo-ber, suggests myriad other recreation opportuni-ties the resort could invest in to drive more traffic. These include zip lines, adventure courses, moun-tain boarding, panning for gold, summer tubing, fat-tire snow biking, a climbing wall, festivals and Segway tours.

Mountain managers are taking steps to save money for the upcoming season, though prices won’t raise until the 2016-2017 ski season at the earliest. This year, Bogus will shorten its hours. Chairlifts will close at 4:30 p.m., Sunday-Tues-day and 9 p.m. all other nights, instead of the usual 10 p.m.

“Operating seven days and nights a week is extremely expensive for us,” Interim General Manager Nathan Shake told Boise Weekly. “We looked at our sales and visits during those hours and from 9 to 10 p.m., it was nonexistent. Shaving off that hour for the whole season is pretty significant.”

The mountain will also only open for week-ends during preseason—meaning Thanksgiving-Dec. 12—and for the month of April.

Shake pointed out that if Bogus’ season pass price had kept pace with inflation, it would cost well over $300, rather than the popular $199 season pass sale skiers enjoyed until prices went up to $229 in 2013.

“It’s a tough story to tell. We’ve had four bad

snow years and we’re going to raise the price,” he said. “We just have to keep our existence in mind.”

At the end of the open house, Boise Mayor Dave Bieter made a brief appearance where he waved the flag for Bogus Basin.

“I was asked if the city would participate in this feasibility effort, and my answer was, ‘Are you kidding me? Of course we will,’” Bieter said. “We’ll do all we can to make Bogus thrive. I just have to say … I want to talk about a gondola from here to Bogus.”

That got a rise out of the crowd. “As crazy as that is, who knows, maybe we

look to do that someday,” Bieter said. “We’re going to be skiing at Bogus and recreating at Bogus forever.”

A few open house attendees were disap-pointed no time was allotted for a question-and-answer session or public discussion. Rather, those interested in sharing their opinion are urged to participate in another online survey at bogusbasin.org.

THE THREE WHO WANT TO UNSEAT BOISE MAYOR DAVE BIETER

One is a current elected official, another hasn’t run for office since the 1960s and a third wasn’t old enough to vote for either one of them. All three have one thing in common: they think they can do a better job than Boise Mayor Dave Bieter, who is running for an unprecedented fourth term in November.

Seth Holden, 25, is a Boise State Univer-sity junior majoring in technical communica-tions and French. His primary professional experience has been as an employee of Powell’s Sweet Shoppe.

Judy Peavey-Derr is a former Ada County commissioner, Ada County Highway District commissioner, unsuccessful 2012 candidate to represent Boise’s District 17 in the Idaho Senate and current member of the Greater Boise Auditorium District board of directors.

In particular, Peavey-Derr is opposing the initiative—also on November’s ballot—to fun-nel $10 million into protecting the Boise Foot-hills and Boise River. The proposed levy would have an estimated monthly impact of $2.39 per $100,000 of taxable value on residential property owners.

“The proposed new tax on all Boise citizens for buying more foothills property accessible to those with mountain bikes should be reconsidered,” said Peavey-Derr in her campaign announcement. “I serve on the Idaho Foundation for Parks and Lands and have for several years. We are a conservation 501 (c) 3 foundation. I’m not opposed to con-servation, but what about the people who live in Boise on the south and west sides of town? They would like a biking area close to their back door the same as the North End.”

Meanwhile, Myron Gilbert, 84, who served as Ada County Sheriff from 1959 to 1964, said “a combination of things” inspired his mayoral candidacy.

“I’ve been somewhat unhappy over the performance in that office for some time now,” Gilbert told Boise Weekly, “and I thought perhaps I could straighten some of those things out.”

Gilbert acknowledged running a citywide political campaign wouldn’t be cheap but, “I’ve got some great ideas and enough people around me to help me accomplish that.”

let alone argue about—Statehouse politics.“This is a lot more about the outcomes

than it is about any existing policy stance from any other governmental entity,” said Mike Journee, spokesman for Mayor Bieter.

“The mayor has said on multiple occasions that he’s committed to this.”

That financial commitment is not bottomless, though. At least not yet.

“Neither the city nor the school district have unlimited dollars to go toward this,” said Lachiondo. “But we can’t bind a future mayor or council to this.”

However, as the parent of a 6- and 3-year-old, she understands the value of preschool.

“It’s not cheap, but is absolutely important,” she said. “So many kids don’t have the opportuni-ty, so I’m very excited about this, on a professional and personal level.”

The 60 inaugural students in the pre-K programs at Hawthorne and Whitney elemen-taries will be in three separate classes of 20 each: one morning class at Whitney, and one morning class and one afternoon class at Hawthorne. The children won’t be the only ones learning.

“There’s a lot of enthusiasm,” said Roth. “We’re

already getting a number of calls from parents asking how they can sign their child up. There will a screening process with several contributing factors [including] income eligibility, and then there’s the parent involvement component.”

That means parents must commit to volunteer hours in the classroom and parenting education to encourage more reading at home.

“I promise you, this is nothing like daycare,” said Roth. “But please don’t picture a typical class-room, either. Parents should know that these kids will be moving around a lot. Don’t picture these kids sitting in rows with workbooks.”

When Boise Mayor Dave Bieter runs for a fourth term this fall, he’ll have three challengers.

NEWS

Did you always want to be a performer?Clare Howes Eisentrout: My first dream was

to be a librarian, but I remember my grandfather telling me that wasn’t ambitious enough. I went to a summer camp when I was 13, and all the other girls were doing theater. I think I performed in my first show when I was 13.

Pedar Benson Bate: When I was in first grade, I wanted to be a paleontologist. It was all about

Jurassic Park for me. I grew up around music. My grandfather and uncles were performers, my father had an amazing music collection, and sister and mom loved musical theater. I remember audition-ing for a show when I was in seventh grade.

Eisentrout: I attended Baldwin Wallace Conservatory. Any theater program that you get involved in is a compact, intense environment. I went through a lot of phases: feeling OK some-

times, feeling at-odds other times. In retrospect, all of that seems totally necessary.

Bate: For me, I studied music performance and voice with a minor in theater at Ohio State. That’s where I met my now-fiance Meredith Lark [who was recently in the Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival’s staging of The Fantastiks]. We moved to New York City in 2010.

Talk to me about the dynamic of two per-formers living under the same roof.

Bate: Meredith and I are not too dramatic in our lives. Yes, the acting profession can attract larger-than-life personalities. But that’s not us.

As for the future?Bate: We’re getting married Oct. 17.

Clare, are you in a relationship?Eisentrout: A new one. My boyfriend is staying

with me here for a couple of weeks, but it will be long-distance soon enough. After this production, I’ll be scouting cities to figure out where I want to put down some roots.

The Fantasticks is a legendary musical. Do you remember when you first saw it pro-duced or heard the score?

Eisentrout: I knew nothing about it.

Wow, how is that possible? Isn’t it part of American theatrical lore?

Eisentrout: It just never came on my radar. Bate: I had heard some of the score.

There was a time in America when the cast album of The Fantasticks was a staple of any record collection.

Bate: Listening to it now, it’s classic. “Try to Remember;” then there’s “Much More,” “Soon It’s Going to Rain” and “They Were You.”

Eisentrout: It’s hopelessly romantic.

Some would say the text is a product of the Beat Generation.

Bate: Absolutely. The text is lush and densely packed with references to literature.

The Fantasticks is the wellspring of boy-meets-girl musicals, but have you figured out what the story is really all about?

Bate: It’s everything.Eisentrout: On the surface it’s boy-meets-

girl, but underneath it’s about growing up. And depending on your age, you’ll look at the show very differently.

How do you make the show fresh?Eisentrout: if you look at the basics of the

show, there’s no way that this show will never not be fresh. It’s one of those shows that is relevant to whatever time it’s performed in.

You’ve spent your summer performing The Fantasticks in Lake Tahoe...

Eisentrout: But we’re so looking forward to being back here in Idaho. The Idaho Shakespeare amphitheatre is amazing.

Performing The Fantasticks for the last few months in Tahoe, the show must fit you like a suit of clothes by now.

Eisentrout: Yes, but we’re excited to have someone come in and lint-roll it, to continue your metaphor.

Bate: Since we started performing the show, we’ve been exploring new ways to play things.

For all of the underlying complexity of The Fantasticks, the show also pays respect to innocence.

Eisentrout: And I immediately try to identify with the young girls in the audience. I feel a huge responsibility in that. It’s really important to me to show what heartbreak looks like; but it’s equally important to show what comes out on the other side of that heartbreak.

Bate: In a way, our characters are a shade of every man and woman.

There’s nothing like that moment in the show when we hear the opening bars of “Try to Remember.”

Eisentrout: It’s ... well, it’s fantastic.

CLARE HOWES EISENTROUT AND

PEDAR BENSON BATETheir fantastic(k) September in Idaho

GEORGE PRENTICE

There is every other American musical, and then there’s The Fantasticks, the tiny in size but huge in influence boy-meets-girl confection. More than a 50 years after it opened in a small off-Broadway theater, The Fantasticks has been performed in dozens of languages in at least 67 nations.

It is also the ideal September musical, with its narrator asking audiences to, “Try to remember the kind of September when life was slow and oh, so mellow.” With that, the Idaho Shakespeare Festival asks us to “remember” once more in its 2015 production of The Fantasticks, running Tuesdays-Sundays through Sept. 27. Boise Weekly sat down with Clare Howes Eisentrout, 24, and Pedar Benson Bate, 29, who are cast as romantic leads Luisa and Matt, to talk about how they’ll be spending their September evenings.

LATINO FEST BOISE 2015According to the United States Census Bureau, Idaho’s “His-

THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH LAGOON

Trevor Powers channels change and growth for Savage Hills Ballroom

AMY ATKINS

The exuberance and audacity of childhood is often tempered to modesty and diligence in adulthood. Great artists are able to harness both, expressing moxie and sophistication in their work. Local-turned-global musician Trevor Powers has revealed his almost preternatural mastery of duality, which is once again evi-denced by tracks from his soon-to-be-released third Youth Lagoon full-length, Savage Hills Ballroom (Fat Possum; Friday, Sept. 25).

Powers’ reedy voice is almost childlike, yet he plumbs the depths of the human condition. He employs wide ranging instrumentation, which could easily have given way to chaos, yet is as precise as a pointillist’s brush. At the upcoming Youth Lagoon show Saturday, Sept. 12 at The Egyptian Theatre—a stop on the first Youth Lagoon tour since 2013—Pow-ers will be joined by a handful of trusted musician friends to perform songs from Savage Hills Ballroom. It will be a rare opportunity for a hometown audience, which will see just how much the baby-faced 26-year-old has grown.

Even before his 2011 Youth Lagoon debut, The Year of Hibernation (Fat Possum), Powers exhibited a maturity beyond his years—and experience. Although he often performed facing away from the audience, hunched over a keyboard and letting his thick, curly hair hide his face, Powers knew who he was as a musician and maintained a strong grip on his sound and image. He continues to keep the reins tight, writing every line and lyric of his songs—but he allows the music to have as much space and attention as it needs.

“I wrote [Savage Hills Ballroom] over a period of about a year,” Powers said. “I started writing when I finished the touring cycle for Wondrous Bughouse (Fat Possum, 2013). The way I work

is, I have a really hard time writing when I’m on the road because it’s such a different mental-ity—playing shows compared to writing—so I wait until I get home and get engulfed in that creative process. It’s the only way I know how to work.”

He doesn’t collaborate on the songwriting, but Powers does take a little guidance—from the music itself.

“I never start with lyrics,” Powers said. “My process is all over the place. Sometimes I’ll start

with a beat machine and start making noise and see what happens … some-times I start with piano or guitar ... I’ll experiment with different tones and see if it spawns any ideas. Other times, I’ll just sit at a guitar or piano and approach it that way. I

never go into a song with a particular agenda. ... That’s not how I work. I just sit down and see if anything comes out. If it doesn’t, it doesn’t.

“It makes it interesting for me because I never know what’s going to come out,” he added. “It’s kind of a subconscious thing, where the ideas come out and I go, ‘Wow. I had no idea I had been consumed by this’—whatever it might be.”

For Savage Hills Ballroom, Powers stretched even further than usual. Pieces written on key-board or guitar are translated into rich layers of strings and horns, resulting in his most diverse record to date.

“When I wrote this album, it was on a song-

to-song basis,” he said. “I didn’t sit down to necessarily write an album, I sat down to write a song. Then I did that over and over and over until, next thing I knew, I had an album.”

From writing to release, Powers makes sure the finished product reflects his vision. Record-ing Savage Hills Ballroom required employing a number of musicians and, when asked if he’s a control freak in the studio, he answered with a laugh and a hearty, “For sure … I want [my music] to come out a particular way. … Every-thing counts.”

There is nothing incidental on Savage Hills Ballroom. As with all of Powers’ music, every piece has a purpose and has to have meaning. It also has to have come from a new approach. Regurgitating what he’s done just because it worked before, doesn’t work.

“It’s dishonest,” he said. “If you’re going to spend time doing this, making music your life and speaking through your music, you have to make yourself uncomfortable. You have to ap-proach your music in new ways.”

Though Powers thinks contentment is danger-ous for an artist, he is also capable of channeling joy, and doesn’t let the “monumental” experiences pass by unnoticed—or unappreciated.

“I went to the Sasquatch Music Festival in 2009 or 2010,” Powers said. “I remember telling my girlfriend, who is now my wife, that one day I was going to be playing Sasquatch. Two years later, we played ... It was so surreal ... It was a ‘holy shit’ moment. So, I’m very grateful for everything. There’s not a day I wake up and take things for granted.”

Golden boy Trevor Powers brings Youth Lagoon back for hometown show.

COME OUT, COME OUT WHEREVER YOU ARE… TO HYDE PARKSummer may waning, but that doesn’t signal the end of outdoor events.

The 36th Annual Hyde Park Street Fair happens Friday, Sept. 18-Sunday, Sept. 20, and three days of browsing an array of artisans’ booths, and eating and drinking are followed by nights filled with top-notch local music—and eating and drinking. The musi-cal headliners this year include The David Andrews Band on Friday, and Kevin Kirk and Onomatopoeia on Sunday. On Saturday, Matt Hopper and the Roman Candles will light up the night. Hopper, one of Idaho’s and Alaska’s favorite sons, spent time this summer in The Last Frontier state, “on tour and having a blast hiking and whatnot.” He was also putting the finishing touches on his upcoming album, Grand Ole Hopry, a lush collection of country-western tunes highlighting Hopper’s enviable ability to equally deliver raspy vocals and sweet falsetto. matthopper.com

In other local release news, Jonathan War-ren and the Billy Goats have a new album, Bless My Soul, on the way, too. The title track, in particular, finds Warren exploring a stripped-down Gothic sound well suited to the gravel in his voice. The track is haunting both in tone and in the way it sticks around, with verses rolling through your mind long after the song has stopped playing. J Dub and the BGs will celebrate the release of Bless My Soul—appropriately—on Friday, Nov. 13 at Visual Arts Collective. Tickets are available at brownpap-ertickets.com. jonathanwarrenmusic.com

In non-local but will-be-in-town news, popsters Telekinesis and Say Hi are hitting the road together this fall, each supporting a new release. Telekinesis’ Ad Infinitum (Merge Records) hits shelves Friday, Sept. 18. It’s an album The A.V. Club described as “full of delightfully dated synth sounds, like a bleep-bloopier version of the same pop genius [Michael Benjamin Lerner]’s been doing for years.” The new album, Bleeders Digest (Barsuk Records) from Say Hi’s synth-pop master Eric Elbogen also comes out Friday, Sept. 18, and it’s all about vampires. Sweet. See them both at Flying M Coffeegarage on Thursday, Nov. 15. sayhitoyourmom.com, telekinesismusic.com

COLLEEN GREEN, SEPT. 9, THE WATERCOOLERIt takes as much effort to give a shit as it does to not give a shit.

This slacker’s dilemma is one of the themes explored by bedroom-bubblegum rock songwriter Colleen Green on her latest album, I Want To Grow Up (Hardly Art, 2015).

For evidence, see side two of I Want to Grow Up, which opens with “Things That are Bad for Me (Part 1),” a three-minute power-pop anthem. On the track, Green earnestly declares it’s time to cut the bullshit and take responsibility for her life. Then, at the 3:02 mark, Part 1 ends and “Things That are Bad for Me (Part 2)” begins. The tempo drops and guitar rig morphs into a fuzzed out, pulsating drone as Green ditches her solemn delivery and adopts a detached Jesus and Mary Chain-esque vocal style. In near monotone, she sings, “I want to do/ drugs right now/ I want to get high/ right now.”

Green and JAILL are making an all-ages Boise appearance at The Watercooler. Come on slackers, give a shit and check out this show.

LA LUZ, SEPT. 11, NEUROLUXWhen La Luz played Boise in 2013, the band almost died. Leav-

ing the City of Trees after a November show, the Seattle-based surf-rock quartet was in a collision with a semi-truck that totaled their tour van and destroyed their gear but, thankfully, resulted in minimal injuries. Shana Cleveland, Marian Li Pino, Alice Sandhal and Lena Simon are tough, though, and despite some lingering emotional trauma, hit the road soon after and have toured steadily since. The band returns to Boise for a Friday, Sept. 11 show at Neurolux, tour-ing behind its 2015 release Weirdo Shrine (HardlyArt).

NPR lauds the sophomore album for Cleveland’s “effortless” guitar work, which it describes as “fuzz-heavy and lo-fi.” Pitchfork notes the “existential dread” that gives what could otherwise seem like straightforward garage-rock a sinister, dreamy quality. Eerie, wordless choruses entwine with droning organ and meandering, reverb-heavy guitar riffs to produce a sound that it is at turns sweet and ominous—a sort of siren song of doom that Cleveland told Spin magazine is a direct reference to the band’s 2013 crash.

MUSICAL MEMORY

Elephant Revival strives for depth, connectionJESSICA MURRI

Two elephants lived together for 16 years in a now-empty exhibit at Chicago’s Lincoln Park Zoo before one was sent to another zoo. The elephant being moved died during transport; the one left behind died as well.

“So in honor of these elephants, we brought the tribe together as a band, as tribal creatures are meant to live together,” said Bridget Law, the 32-year-old fiddle player for Colorado-based Americana band Elephant Revival.

Since it was founded almost a decade ago, Elephant Revival has played in Boise at least half a dozen times, including at Treefort Music Fest 2015 in March, and returns for an all-ages show at El Korah Shrine on Friday, Sept. 11. Doors open at 7 p.m., and the show starts at 8 p.m. with Ketchum folk-punk band Sheep Bridge Jumpers opening. Tickets are $15 in advance, $18 at the door.

Elephant Re-vival’s five members decided early on, according to Law, to create “great mu-sic with meaning,” and do so with a slew of instrumentation: Law on fiddle and octave fiddle; Bonnie Paine on washboard, djembe, musical saw and stomp-box; Charlie Rose on banjo, pedal steel, guitar, horns, cello and double bass; Dango Rose on double bass, mandolin and banjo; and Daniel Rodriguez on guitar, banjo and double bass.

Together, Law said, they strive to delve deeper than mainstream pop.

“We write something more along the lines of how we’re all connected through the planet, and the water that makes up our bodies is also flowing through the moun-tains, and the sky is always changing,” Law said.

Songs like “Remembering a Beginning,” off 2013’s The Changing Skies (Itz Evolving Records) see the band exploring existential-ism with lyrics like “Where does it go/ the wind that blows.”

“It’s just the idea that the skies have been here for millions of years. Thinking about what the skies have seen of this place and how it’s chang-ing,” Law said. “All things have an experience, whether they seem inanimate or not. I think that’s profound and I enjoy that thought.”

If Elephant Revival sounds like a band of little hippie-dippy treehuggers, that’s probably accurate. When Law isn’t recording or touring

with her band, she en-joys practicing AcroYoga and climbing aerial silks.

She said a person doesn’t have to be a nature lover to love El-ephant Revival’s music, but she has noticed regional audiences react differently. In the West, she sees more outdoor

venues where barefoot people wear flowing clothes hold their hands in the air. On the East Coast, not so much.

“Folks in those places are contemplative, listening to the lyrics and absorbing the poetry,” Law said. “Maybe they’re a little more curious about the instrumentation because it’s not every band out there that has a washboard. Some of those more folky root styles are a little more ubiquitous out here.”

The band members work to keep touring as environmentally friendly as possible. They used to run vehicles fueled by vegetable oil but because of their growing crew, they finally had to buy a tour bus this year.To help offset the fossil fuels, however, they’re having the roof of the bus covered in solar panels.

“[Having a bus] is providing more freedom,” she said. “It’s much better for our bodies and our experiences where we’re playing. We get to see these places instead of just driving in, doing the gig, then pulling out at night.”

Elephant Revival just finished 16 days in the studio recording its sixth album, which is scheduled to be released in the spring. Law said she has loved dedicating her life to music.

“Writing songs is like trying to turn the frequency of our emotions into sound,” she said. “It’s like uncovering—dusting off the layers of dirt above a dinosaur bone. You’re digging for the rest of it to understand it fully. … Even from the beginning, it felt really fertile. We are stand-ing on fertile ground.”

Elephant Revival came together almost a decade ago, dedicated to creating “great music with meaning.”

Here are my traditional answers to the three most-asked questions about Boise Weekly’s annual visit to the Toronto International Film Festival: No. 1. About 50 (the average number of films I try to screen). No. 2. Yes, I still get a bit star-struck (but it’s usually based on an actor/actress exceeding my expectations). No. 3. No, it never gets tedious (seeing that many films in a 10-day period isn’t for everyone).

Celebrating its 40th anniversary, TIFF sets the standard for film festivals. It is perfectly timed to launch the award season; it is in the perfect setting; and most importantly, it is a people’s fes-tival, where the movie-going public is the real star rather than press and film industry types. I always make a point of watching at least a third of my films at public screenings—it’s still invigorating to queue up with hundreds of film lovers who are practically jumping out of their skin at the chance to see a world premiere.

Here are a select few of the premieres I’m particularly anxious to see this year:

1 The Martian, director Ridley Scott’s new blockbuster stars Matt Damon as an astro-

naut trying to stay alive on Mars while NASA builds and launches a rescue mission.

2. This year’s Academy Award winner Eddie Redmayne reaches for some more Oscar

gold in The Danish Girl, a sumptuously photo-graphed epic that begins when a young woman asks her husband to stand in for a female model so she can complete her latest painting.

3. Brooklyn tells the story of a young Irish woman who crosses the Atlantic in the

1950s to begin a new life in America but when she returns to her homeland, she must decide where to spend the rest of her life.

4. Our Brand Is Crisis stars Oscar winners Sandra Bullock and Billy Bob Thornton as

American political spinmeisters who get tangled in a Bolivian presidential election.

5. Spotlight stars Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo and Liev Schreiber as the Boston

journalists who uncovered a massive scandal of child abuse and cover-ups within the Catholic Church.

6. Truth stars Robert Redford as CBS News anchor Dan Rather and Cate Blancett as

his producer in the story of how an investigation into George W. Bush’s past nearly brought down the network.

7. Black Mass stars Johnny Depp as notori-ous gangster Whitey Bulger. Co-stars

include Benedict Cumberbatch, Kevin Bacon and Peter Sarsgaard.

8. Lady In the Van stars the legendary Mag-gie Smith in the true story of a homeless

woman who lived in a van in the driveway of London playwright Alan Bennett for 15 years.

9. Freeheld stars this year’s Oscar winner Julianne Moore along with Ellen Page and

Steve Carell in the true story of a 2005 legal battle in which a woman is unable to pass on her pension benefits to her domestic partner.

10. Trumbo stars Bryan Cranston as the legendary screenwriter and Holly-

wood blacklist victim Dalton Trumbo. The case is rounded out by Louis C.K., John Goodman and Helen Mirren.

Another guilty pleasure at TIFF is its Mid-night Madness programming, and this year’s craze-fest includes the much-buzzed-about Yakuza Apocalypse, The Witch, Green Room and The Final Girls. Yes, there will be blood.

Presentation: A smear of tomato sauce shines through small tufts of moz-zarella and a dusting of cornmeal clings to one side of the crust. Petals of prosciutto rest on one quadrant, while halved coins of calabrese adorn another. Two sprigs of basil add a flash of green in the center of the pie.

Dough: Baked in a wood-burning oven imported from Naples, Italy, Flat-bread’s certified D.O.C. (Denominazione di Origine Controllata) pie had a pleasant crunch at the perimeter, but things got a little floppy at the center.

Cheese: Flatbread’s Fior di Latte, or “flower of the milk,” mozzarella is a wel-come step up from the standard white sprinkle. The oozy mozzarella coins had a mildly salty brine and a creamy tang.

Sauce: Bright and lightly tart, Flatbread’s San Marzano pomodoro was top notch and has all the summery zip of tomatoes fresh from the garden.

Toppings: Though the sauteed portobellos were unmemorable, the cured meats from Salt Lake City’s Creminelli Fine Meats were show-stealers. The prosciutto crudo was perfectly salty and shaved thin while the Calabrese had a hint of garlic, a rich fattiness and a spicy kick.

Verdict: Props for the simplicity. A moderate dose of top-shelf ingredients beats out greasy meat and cheap cheese any day. Points deducted for a somewhat floppy crust that didn’t do much to support the rest of the team.

TONY’S PIZZERIA TEATRODish: Quattro Stagioni

Description: San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella, mushrooms, asparagus, homemade Italian sausage and imported prosciutto di Parma

Price: $16.50

Presentation: This pie forgoes the standard four quadrants in favor of a flur-ried mix of the seasons. Each slice boasts a thin layer of sauce, a dusting of shredded mozzarella, a few modest mushroom slivers, a shard or two of asparagus and ample amounts of meat.

Dough: Chef/owner Tony Vuolo, a native Neapolitan, has the thin crust dialed in. Super skinny and crispy on the bottom with an even char, this wood-fired crust is a thing of beauty.

Cheese: The standard shredded mozzarella was suitable but nothing to write home about.

Sauce: Tony’s uses San Marzano tomatoes to make its sauce, but the bright tomato flavors were overshadowed by heavy hints of dried Italian spices.

Toppings: While the mushrooms were more flavorful than Flatbread’s and the asparagus was a welcome addition, the meats just couldn’t compete. Curled up into little cups, the mild homemade Italian pork sausage coins were good but not great and the prosciutto had a muted hue.

Verdict: Props for the excellent crust, but a shoulder shrug for everything else. Also, jumbling the seasons into a uniform topping was an interesting, but ultimately less thematically satisfying, choice.

CACHACA, BRAZILIAN BOOZECachaca, pronounced “ka-SHAH-suh,” is a

Brazilian sugarcane spirit that differs from rum in that it’s crafted from fermented sugarcane juice rather than molasses—the dark, oozy byproduct of turning sugarcane into sugar. Cachaca is commonly used to make the caipir-inha, pronounced “kai-peer-EEN-yah,” a simple cocktail made with muddled limes and sugar.

BOCA LOCA, $24.95Distilled from organic,

fresh-pressed sugarcane grown north of Rio de Janeiro, Boca Loca has a hot, vanilla-laced nose with hints of citrus and ol-ive brine. The palate does a complete 180, with pleasant, caramel dessert flavors that are even more pronounced on ice. This was the panel’s top choice and the all-around-favorite for making caipirinhas.

PITU, $19Crafted by a 75-year-

old family business in northeast Brazil, Pitu is named for the red, shrimp-like creature on its label. The nose had a pronounced tequila vibe, with smoky, vegetal notes likened to both mezcal and a “beach campfire.” On the palate, those smoky flavors were still detectable, along with a subtle sweetness. This was the panel’s least favorite.

LEBLON, $26.20The Destilaria Maison

Leblon crafts its cachaça in copper pot stills and ages the spirit in French XO cognac oak casks for up to six months. The aging lends the booze light caramel and vanilla notes on the nose but not enough to mask the fruity banana flavors, which tasters likened to “cara-melized plantains” and “bananas Foster.” The pal-ate was much milder, with neutral, almost vodka like smoothness and a hint of sugary sweetness. On ice, Leblon has nice body and makes a great sipper.

NEAPOLITAN BRAWLFlatbread and Tony’s: ’Tis the season for a quattro stagioni

TARA MORGAN

In Italian, quattro stagioni means “four seasons.” The pie is often separated into quadrants, each with a different topping representing a season—asparagus or artichokes for spring, tomatoes for summer, mushrooms for fall and cured meats for winter. Since we’re teetering on the cusp of a seasonal change, we decided to honor fall with a little lighthearted Neapolitan brawl.

WINNER: Flatbread Neapolitan Pizzeria Tony’s makes a fine quattro stagioni, but it didn’t top Flatbread in a showdown. Though Tony’s version was larger and had a superior crust, it lacked the artful simplicity and premium ingredients that made Flatbread’s so satisfying.

WILD ROOT CAFE AND GRIT AMERICAN CUISINE TO OPEN SOON After two years in business, Yokozuna Teriyaki’s downtown location at 276 N. Eighth St. is shutting

its doors. Yokozuna’s departure from the Eighth Street storefront follows causal banh mi joint Baguette Deli and Coldstone Creamery. The restaurant’s other two locations on Vista and Fairview avenues are unaffected by the closure. Meanwhile, another local concept is hoping to make a go of it in the space.

Owners Anne-Marie and Michael Trebbi signed papers to take over the site last week and plan to open Wild Root Cafe and Market no later than mid-October.

“The concept itself will be breakfast and lunch and we are going to be focusing on organic, local, sustainable, good-for-you food,” said Michael, a professional chef who worked in Chicago for most of his career.

Michael described the menu as “modern American” or “American craft,” and said Wild Root will offer “recognizable favorites with some twists” in a counter service environment.

“It’ll be an open space, an open kitchen,” said Michael. “It’ll be quick-service style. Order at the coun-ter and basically pick it up and you can take it to your table.”

In addition to the cafe, Wild Root also plans to house a small gourmet market featuring house-made and locally sourced products.

“A lot of the from-scratch items that we’re using—it might be house-made ricotta that’s used in a Tuscan strata—we’ll take that ricotta and package it and offer it in open-air coolers for purchase,” said Michael.

Wild Root is also talking with a number of local farmers and producers and plans to offer them a place to sell their products on site. The cafe will also serve beer and wine from local purveyors and will be open 7 a.m.-3 p.m. Monday-Friday, and 8 a.m.-3 p.m. on Saturdays. For more info, visit facebook.com/wildrootcafe.

In other opening news, Grit American Cuisine recently announced plans to open at 360 S. Eagle Road in the Albertson’s strip mall. Spearheaded by Porterhouse Market’s Dave Faulk and former 10 Barrel Chef Paul Faucher, the restaurant will serve a hodgepodge of American eats, sourced locally and regionally.

“Our menu will have the likes of French and Cajun flavors from New Orleans,” wrote Faulk in an online newsletter. “An influence of Asian and Hispanic communities will come from Los Angeles and San Francisco. New York City will share some of its Jewish deli influence, and the Italian culture will certainly land in our 700-degree pizza oven.”

Faulk noted that Grit will also focus on house-made charcuterie, “like our own bacon, ham, pastrami, salami, prosciutto and a variety of sausages that will come smoking out of our new smokehouse.”

Grit will serve craft wine and beer and its walls will be adorned with murals by local artist Luke Schafer. The restaurant plans to serve lunch and dinner Monday through Friday, brunch and dinner on Saturday, and brunch on Sunday. No opening date has been announced.

BOISE WEEKLY

ARIES (March 21-April 19): “More and more I have come to admire resilience,” writes Jane Hirshfield in her poem “Optimism.” “Not the simple resistance of a pillow,” she adds, “whose foam returns over and over to the same shape, but the sinuous tenacity of a tree: finding the light newly blocked on one side, it turns in another.” You have not often had great access to this capacity in the past, Aries. Your specialty has been the fast and fiery style of adjust-ment. For the foreseeable future, I’m betting you will be able to summon a supple staying power—a dogged, determined, incremental kind of resilience.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “The fragrance from your mango groves makes me wild with joy.” That’s one of the lyrics in the national anthem of Bangladesh. Here’s another: “Forever your skies ... set my heart in tune as if it were a flute.” Elsewhere, addressing Bangladesh as if it were a goddess, the song proclaims, “Words from your lips are like nectar to my ears.” I suspect you may be awash with comparable feelings in the coming weeks, Taurus—not toward your country, rather for the creatures and experiences that rouse your delight and exultation. They are likely to provide even more of the sweet mojo than they usually do. It will be an excellent time to improvise your own hymns of praise.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): There have been times in the past when your potential helpers disappeared just when you wanted more help than usual. In the com-ing weeks, I believe you will get redress for those sad interludes of yesteryear. A wealth of assistance and guidance will be available. Even people who have previously been less than reliable may offer a tweak or intervention that gives you a boost. Here’s a tip for how to ensure that you take full advantage of the possibilities: Ask clearly and gracefully for exactly what you need.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Why grab the brain-scrambling moonshine when you may eventu-ally be offered a heart-galvanizing tonic? Why gorge on hors d’oeuvres when a four-course feast will be available sooner than you imagine? According to my analysis of the astrological omens, my fellow Crab, the future will bring unexpected opportunities that are better and brighter than the current choices. This is one of those rare times when procrastination may be in your interest.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): As I hike up San Pedro Ridge, I’m mystified by the madrone trees. The leaves on the short, thin sap-lings are as big and bold as the leaves on the older, thicker, taller trees. I see this curiosity as an apt

metaphor for your current situa-tion, Leo. In one sense, you are in the early stages of a new cycle of growth. In another sense, you are strong and ripe and full-fledged. For you, this is a winning combination: a robust balance of innocence and wisdom, of fresh aspiration and seasoned readiness.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I hope it’s not too late or too early to give you a slew of birthday pres-ents. You deserve to be inundated with treats, dispensations and appreciations. Here’s your first perk: You are hereby granted a license to break a taboo that is no longer useful or necessary. Second blessing: You are authorized to instigate a wildly constructive departure from tradition. Third boost: I predict that in the next six weeks, you will simultaneously claim new freedom and summon more discipline. Fourth delight: During the next three months, you will discover and uncork a new thrill. Fifth goody: Between now and your birthday in 2016, you will develop a more relaxed relationship with perfectionism.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A “wheady mile” is an obsolete English term I want to revive for use in this horoscope. It refers to what may happen at the end of a long journey, when that last stretch you’ve got to traverse seems to take forever. You’re so close to

home; you’re imagining the comfort and rest that will soon be yours. But as you cross the “wheady mile,” you must navigate your way through one further plot twist or two. There’s a delay or complica-tion that demands more effort just when you want to be finished with the story. Be strong, Libra. Keep the faith. The wheady mile will not, in fact, take forever. (Thanks to Mark Forsyth and his book Horologicon.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Trying improbable and unprec-edented combinations is your spe-cialty right now. You’re willing and able to gamble with blends and jux-tapositions that no one else would think of, let alone propose. Bonus: Extra courage is available for you to call on as you proceed. In light of this gift, I suggest you brainstorm about all the unifications that might be possible for you to pull off. What conflicts would you love to defuse? What inequality or lopsidedness do you want to fix? Is there a mis-understanding you can heal or a disjunction you can harmonize?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Is feeling good really as fun as everyone seems to think? Is it real-ly so wonderful to be in a groove, in love with life and in touch with your deeper self? No! Definitely not! I suspect that as you enter more fully into these altered states, your life will provide evidence of the incon-

veniences they bring. For example, some people might nag you for extra attention and others may be jealous of your success. You could be pressured to take on more responsibilities. And you may be haunted by the worry that sooner or later, this grace period will pass. I’M JUST KIDDING, SAGITTARIUS! In truth, the minor problems precipi-tated by your blessings won’t cause any more anguish than a mosquito biting your butt while you’re in the throes of ecstatic love-making.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In this horoscope, we will use the Socratic method to stimulate your excitement about projects that fate will favor in the next nine months. Here’s how it works: I ask the questions and you brainstorm the answers. 1. Is there any part of your life where you are an amateur but would like to be a professional? 2. Are you hesitant to leave a comfort zone even though remaining there tends to inhibit your imagination? 3. Is your ability to fulfill your ambitions limited by any lack of training or deficiency in your education? 4. Is there any way that you are holding on to blissful ignorance at the expense of future possibilities? 5. What new license, credential, diploma or certification would be most useful to you?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The story of my life features more than a few fiascoes. For example,

I got fired from my first job after two days. One of my girlfriends dumped me without any expla-nation and never spoke to me again. My record label fired me and my band after we made just one album. Years later, these indignities still carry a sting. But I confess that I am also grateful for them. They keep me humble. They serve as antidotes if I’m ever tempted to deride other people for their failures. They have helped me develop an abundance of com-passion. I mention this personal tale in the hope that you, too, might find redemption and healing in your own memories of frustra-tion. The time is right to capitalize on old losses.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s never fun to be in a sticky pre-dicament that seems to have no smart resolution. But the coming days could turn out to be an unex-pectedly good time to be in such a predicament. Why? Because I expect that your exasperation will precipitate an emotional cleansing, releasing ingenious intuitions that had been buried under repressed anger and sad-ness. You may then find a key that enables you to reclaim at least some of your lost power. The pre-dicament that once felt sour and intractable will mutate, providing you with an opportunity to deepen your connection with a valuable resource.

Dear Minerva:I’m a 33-year-old woman in a lesbian relationship. I

love to masturbate three to four times a day. Will doing this affect my relationship or sex life with my partner? Is there such a thing as overstimulation? I love my vibrator but I’m worried it will cause me to have trouble orgas-ming the “manual way.” Help.

-Clitty-Clitty Bang-Bang

Dear CCBB,I believe in taking a hands-on approach to pleasure

whenever necessary. In my opinion, as long as “kneading the love muffin” isn’t causing physical pain or affecting your day-to-day life, go for it. If you are missing appointments and work responsibilities in order to get off, you might need to re-think “driving Miss Daisy” (or at least just taking her around the block instead of cross country). If you’re choosing to “paddle the pink canoe” rather than enjoying sex with your partner or it’s difficult for your partner to pleasure you, then it might be time to lay off the self-love. Better yet, include her in your “skittle-diddling” good time. Mutual masturba-tion can be loads of fun. Ask your partner how she feels and then go from there. According to the research I did, vibrator use shouldn’t affect your ability to orgasm. Pay attention to your body’s cues and find the sweet spot for yourself.

Happy Mistressbating!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

FUNKO HANNIBAL DOLLSNBC’s Hannibal is easily one of the most violent shows ever to ap-

pear on a major broadcast network—characters were maimed, killed or eaten (or all three) in nearly every episode. More than its shock value, Brian Fuller’s revamp of the Hannibal Lecter mythos had two things going for it: its obvious aesthetic merit, with stunning visuals and snappy dialogue; and a fiercely loyal fan base that, alas, couldn’t save the

show from being canceled after its third season, which ended sensation-ally Aug. 29. People who thought NBC’s decision to axe Hannibal was lame might find comfort in Funko’s Pop! Television series vinyl Hannibal dolls, including Hannibal and Will Graham, Jack Craw-ford and Hannibal’s dream alter ego, the Wendigo. The dolls’ cutesy, beady eyes and blank expressions are

either totally adorable or creepy as all get out and cost between $9 and $10 at Wal-Mart, Barnes & Noble and other retailers. People who aren’t into Hannibal might check out the Funko website for other favorite franchises, including but not limited to Breaking Bad, Friendsand Attack on Titan.
