Highroad How politically brain-dead is Tony Blair? by Jim Hightower

ony Blair, Britain’s former prime minister, has lashed out at British voters for having “a shared hostility to globalization,” referring to their June 23 decision to exit the European Union. A decade ago, PM Blair had backed expansion of EU’s power over the citizens of Great Britain and 27 other European nations, so he took the Brits’ recent rejection personally. In a New York Times op-ed, he rather prissily blamed the Brexit vote on populist

demagogues who had caused “palpitations in the body politic.” Obviously befuddled, he asked: “How did this happen?” Well, sir, one reason is that you and other peers of Britain’s privileged class long ago imposed policies that reduced the wealth and opportunities of common wage earners, while greatly increasing the wealth and power of corporate executives and rich investors. Indeed, your prized European Union has become a messy, bureaucratic, multinational government of, by and for corporate interests over common people. Located in faraway Brussels, EU officials make decisions that harm British working stiffs who never heard of the decision-makers and have no power to replace them or to alter the decisions. That, Your Highness, is how and why the Brexit rejection of European government happened — it was a democratic shout of anger at the usurpation of

the people’s sovereignty and wellbeing by you and your fellow architects of corporate plutocracy. Of course, the obtuse, self-absorbed Tony Blairs of our world still don’t get it. He concluded his op-ed by pleading with establishment centrists to regain political control from the people and “find solutions that rise above populist anger.” Exactly wrong, sir. The obvious solution is to understand and work with the angry populace, rather than stoking their anger with more of your solutions raining down on them from on high.

recycling, composting, energy conservation, bus shelters and bike lanes (all of which currently receive County funding). While widely popular, their contribution to sustaining Boulder County’s quality of life and economic health occurs only at the margin. I’d argue that the single most important thing County government can do to sustain Boulder County’s quality of life is maintain a road network that is adequate to meet the needs of its exploding number of residents and the traffic they generate — and do it in a way that doesn’t require the County to pave over paradise. In order for this to happen the County must do several things, including 1) up its road maintenance game by overlaying and repaving existing roads more often than it does now to reflect their increased use, 2) add shoulders and turn-lanes to existing roads that are carrying increased traffic volumes, 3) as a last resort add lanes to the most heavily travelled and dangerous two-lane roads, 4) turn Boulder County into an early adopter of semiautonomous and self-driving vehicles and install the sensors and communication infrastructure to create smart roads, and 5) partner with companies like Uber and Lyft, whose business is enabling private car owners to become for-hire trip providers, to increase their presence in the county and get enough drivers on the streets for their services to become a real transportation alternative. In the past, Boulder County has relied on state and federal funding for

much of its capital spending on highways, which explains why improvements have taken place at a glacial pace. (It took about 20 years to fourlane U.S. 287 between Longmont and Broomfield, for example.) The state of Colorado has about three times more road and bridge projects on its plate than it has money for. That explains why the State privatized U.S. 36 and started turning it back into a toll road. The truth is, when it comes to maintaining and improving its highway infrastructure, Boulder County is largely on its own. It may be politically incorrect to say it, but when it comes to genuine sustainability in Boulder County, roads are more important than compost. Boulder County taxpayers have made a massive investment in open space that has kept the County from being overrun by urban sprawl. Now the time has come for the County to increase its investment in its road network to keep us from being paralyzed by gridlock. A re-purposed one-eighth cent sales tax that will raise $100 million in 15 years is a good place to start. County commissioners were originally called County Road Commissioners — and the core responsibility of the office was to maintain the county roads in their districts. Today’s commissioners should devote more attention to the oldest part of their job description — starting with asking the taxpayers to give them the resources to do the job.

letters Portland: a poor model to follow

As citizens in a representative democracy, we expect the people we elect to be looking out for our best interests. Unfortunately, the recent trend here and elsewhere indicates that is not the case as some city leaders are looking out for their own selfinterests. Take for example the recent junket to Portland funded by our tax dollars. City Council and their hand-picked selection of development advocates came back with a plethora of ideas for densifying Boulder. Meanwhile they ignore news articles like the following found on planetizen.com under the title “Has Portland Lost Its Way?” Oregon’s poster child for livable planning is embroiled in new controversies over destructive growth, skyrocketing prices and backroom cronyism. Sound familiar, Boulderites? Our City Council and Planning Board are on this same path, using affordable housing, the homeless and gentle infill as a tool to promote more development here in Boulder. One such tactic is a format known as “The Enhanced Science Fair,” a term coined by Zelda Bronstein wherein a ranking public official introduces a complex topic, often accompanied by a brief power point presentation and then directs members of the community to view poster boards arranged on easels or on the wall. Staff assigned to each poster board chats with the small group huddled around the display. Sometimes, you’re given a clicker to use in a projected survey full of loaded questions with options that most people would never choose as answers. It’s a sly technique city officials are using to mute the community voice in public policy — all the while, purporting to enhance civic engagement. This scenario is all too familiar in Boulder. It’s nothing short of insulting and neighborhoods are starting to take notice of these underhanded tactics. The sleeper has awoken. Jan Trussell/Boulder

The edge of the Bluff

Since 2011, our good intentions have been used to hide the flaws of the Boulder Muni. The presumption that City Council members and even hired “experts” should be allowed to work in the dark using executive sessions is a two-edged sword that hurt us as well as helped us. The Muni is more like a bluff at the gambling table. If Boulder had great ideas and a terrific financial plan, there is no reason to keep it hidden. Executive sessions served as a means Boulder Weekly

to bluff Xcel, and bluff us. Why would I say bluff us, you might ask. Hiding the true costs of the Muni was a bluff on us. Hiding the 30 percent rate increase 18 months after the “day one” rate parity promise was a bluff on us. Not fully advertising the fact that it would be five to 10 years after the creation of the Muni before Boulder would be able to begin carbon reduction is a bluff on us. Not reporting the full cost of the Muni after bond payments is a bluff on us. The full cost of the Muni is close to $1 billion. The profit to Xcel ranges from $35 million to $20 million per year. That would add $200 to $350 million to condemnation costs totaling around $500 million. Startup costs are about $37 million and separation costs could be $10 million or more. Estimated true-costs at “day one” would start at $550 million. Buy a house with a long term loan and it doubles the cost of the house. Just like buying a house, after all bonds are paid, the Muni would cost us $1 billion. It would be 30 years before any real profit could occur. Why take all the risk, why not share it with the rest of Colorado? Patrick Murphy/Boulder

Boulder/Nablus Sister City Project

On June 27, the Nablus Working Group held its second meeting. This meeting included listing concerns of those citizens seeking more information about the Boulder/Nablus Sister City Project. Those concerns will be in this session’s summary when it is approved and released to the public. The Working Group invites public feedback. The City has set up an email address to which citizens can submit questions and comments: NablusWorkingGroup@bouldercolorado.gov. This is a perfect opportunity for all Boulderites interested in this discussion to be heard. I encourage everyone to submit their feedback and questions to the website so they can be addressed now, heard by all, discussed and resolved. Also, Working Group dialogues are open to the public and will be held at the Municipal Service Center at 5050 Pearl St. from 5:30 until 8 p.m. on: 7/12, 7/19, 7/27, 8/11, 8/31, 9/22 and 9/29. Come to the dialogues, get answers to your questions and learn more about the project.

Environmental groups push back against the TPP by Claire Woodcock

ecently, 450 U.S. environmental groups sent Congress a strong message: Vote down the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), the largest proposed trade deal since 1994’s North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). The environmental groups, a collective of landowner, indigenous rights and other allied organizations expressed their opposition to TPP by penning a letter to Congress, urging members to vote against the controversial trade agreement. “We strongly urge you to stand up for healthy communities, clean air and water, Indigenous peoples, property rights, and a stable climate by committing to vote no on the TPP and asking the U.S. Trade Representative to remove from TPP any provision that empowers corporations to challenge government policies in extrajudicial tribunals,” said the letter, which was signed by organizations such as Sierra Club, Indigenous Environmental Network, Bold Alliance, SustainUS and Friends of the Earth. The TPP has been under negotiation between partner countries Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, Vietnam and the U.S. for more than five years. The environmental groups say that a bad trade deal will bring about the further extraction of fossil fuels, despite the desires or even regulations to the contrary that may exist via local governments. The groups opposing the TPP believe that such unwanted oil and gas extraction will be allowed to supersede local, regional or even national no-drill ordinances by way of Investor-State Dispute Settlements (ISDS), a controversial element of the TPP that’s burrowed deep within the 29-chapter trade deal. In the letter, environmental groups warn Congress against dangerous ISDS provisions, stating they would allow multinational oil and gas companies to sue nations in private tribunals to overturn laws prohibiting hydrocarbon development. “Property rights are under constant threat by big corporations,” says Jane Kleeb, president of Bold Alliance. “The TPP will create a scenario for landowners where they are at the mercy of big oil and big gas to do whatever they want with our land and water using secret courts and backroom deals.” The groups warn that ratifying the TPP, as is, would pose a major threat to any current or future restrictions on fossil fuel pipelines, oil and gas extraction or fracking on U.S. public lands. With 50,000 active wells in Colorado, the centennial state is one of the nation’s largest producers of oil and gas. In May, the Colorado Supreme Court struck down Longmont’s voter-approved fracking ban and Fort Collins’ moratorium, ruling that the local prohibitions interfered with the state’s goal of maximizing oil and gas production. Boulder County’s five-year Boulder Weekly

moratorium on issuing new drilling permits was also affected by the Supreme Court’s decision. It has been replaced by a new six-month moratorium as a result. According to critics of the TPP, local laws in Colorado such as bans, moratoriums or even local air and water standards could be overturned by way of the ISDS. In TPP tribunals, oil and gas companies couldn’t force Colorado or its communities to rescind fracking bans. They could, however, attempt to collect massive fines from the federal government for lost profits due to local regulations of cities, counties or states that inhibit unbridled oil and gas extraction in any way. We need look no further than NAFTA for an example of what the TPP will likely bring. TransCanada filed a $15 billion grievance in NAFTA’s version of ISDS against the U.S. for rejecting the Keystone XL tar sands pipeline in November 2015. “Oil companies want to sue because they could be awarded millions — in some cases billions — of dollars in damages,” says Bill Waren, trade analyst at Friends of the Earth. “It is an effective way to thwart local action because it creates powerful incentives for the national government to impede local action in order to limit its liability.” The International Trade Administration anticipates that Colorado will become a catalyst for foreign exports, serving as a model for increasing direct foreign investments in the state. In 2014, 47 percent of Colorado’s exports went to countries participating in TPP negotiations, and a new kind of Colorado export may be on the horizon. The oil and gas industry has made no secret of its plans to use TPP to increase its exports of oil and liquefied natural gas. The environmental groups also challenge that TPP’s expansion of ISDS liability would create a new threat. They believe oil and gas companies would no longer be forced to protect communities from other fossil fuel hazards such as oil trains and refineries. And ISDS provisions could also constrain how Colorado spends its tax dollars, limiting the state’s conservation efforts as well as the state’s ability to provide public goods and services. Colorado’s energy conservation, renewable energy efforts, transportation infrastructure and any upcoming minimum wage hikes would all be potentially vulnerable to ISDS suits. “TPP tribunals could rule against the setback and community control initiatives and tell the state to abandon the decision of the people or require fines to be paid by the federal government if the companies convince the tribunals that they have lost profits as a result of the initiatives,” says Carolyn Bninski, staff member with the Rocky Mountain Peace and Justice Center. Rep. Jared Polis (D-Boulder) is one of the only Congressional members claiming to still be undecided on the TPP. He has repeatedly claimed that no corporate court provisions exist within the TPP, and the trade agreement poses no threat to Coloradans.

He insists, despite his having played a key role in not allowing local control over oil and gas extraction initiatives to make the ballot in 2014, he is a supporter of local control and believes that communities should be allowed to ban fracking and other extraction activities. “It’s a shame that our own courts stripped this right away from Colorado’s local governments this last May,” Polis says. “In fact, I submitted an amicus brief in that lawsuit that argued for the rights of local communities.” Polis says he was successful in getting language in the Trade Promotion Authority that states instructions from Congress to the Obama Administration that nothing in the TPP is allowed to prevent local and state governments from enacting laws to protect public health, safety and the environment. “In Colorado, as well as other states, that, of course means, that the TPP thankfully cannot restrict new setbacks and local control of fracking. Our problems with the Colorado courts, however, remain and hopefully Colorado voters will have the opportunity to change the law soon,” Polis says. Despite this effort by Polis, it is still unclear if Obama or any other signatory to the trade agreement would be bound by such “instructions.” And, as mentioned earlier, the TPP does not restrict the passage of local laws. It simply allows a corporation to seek damages against the Federal government due to those local laws which would then most likely cause the federal government to exert its power through the Environmental Protection Agency, Food and Drug Administration or other regulatory agencies to challenge local laws as being contrary to federal regulations, which would ultimately result in the local regulations being overturned. Allowing local laws to be made does not mean that the federal government could and would not subsequently exert its power to remove them. The groups fighting against the TPP say time is running out ... for all of us. “Scientists tell us that we need to keep well over 80 percent of the world’s fossil fuels in the ground,” Waren says. “No one can be a climate champion and support trade deals like these, which provide polluters with a new corporate bill of rights and impede our ability to keep fossil fuels in the ground.” In short, the TPP is unfavorable to environmental groups for putting climate policies at risk and weakening environmental protections. Polls show that 60 percent of Colorado voters have an unfavorable opinion of this trade agreement. “Americans deserve land security and it starts with saying no to the TPP handout to big corporations,” Kleeb says. Congress isn’t expected to ratify the TPP agreement until a lame duck session after the election There’s still time to submit proposals to your representative. July 7, 2016 11

in February of 2016 by Reps. Ted Deutch (D) and Carlos Cuebelo (R) both from southern Florida. As a bipartisan task force dedicated to finding solutions in the House of Representatives, the Caucus is composed of pairs of representatives, one from each side of the aisle. Part of CCL’s lobbying work includes matching Democrat and Republican Representatives to join the Caucus, and there are currently eight pairs or 16 members. On the international front, CCL has been a major player in the World Bank’s Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition, a group of government leaders, private sector companies and strategic partners committed to expanding the most effective carbon-tax policies throughout the global economy. Although the U.S. is not a partner in the effort, the coalition has a goal of implementing carbon pricing in every country in the world within the next five years. “Without U.S. leadership we’re not going to have a global effort,” Kline says. “We live in the U.S. so what can we do? We can influence the U.S. side.” The volunteer lobbyists have an uphill battle, however, as they compete with the oil and gas industry which has spent approximately $1.3 billion in lobbying efforts since 2007, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. But, Kline says, CCL has something the paid lobbyists will never have. “There’s no doubt that congressmen need money, but they need money to get their constituents to vote for them. The money is in service to the constituents,” he says. “And so when you ask for a meeting with your representative, the answer is yes. They would be very poorly served if they did not sit down and listen respectfully.” Skeptics may still question whether or not the carbon tax policy could actually work, but there is growing evidence to support such policies. In British Columbia for example, the government instituted a carbon tax in 2008. Since then, emissions have been cut by estimates of 5 to 15 percent and the government projects it will return dividends of approximately $1.7 billion Canadian dollars to households and businesses in 2016. A 2015 study conducted by economists at Duke University and the University of Ottawa found the tax has had “negligible effects on aggregate economic performance.” Other countries, such as Ireland, have reported similar successes. After returning from D.C., Kline and Corvidae remain optimistic that the U.S. could pass similar legislation in the near future, aware that they aren’t likely to see any definitive action until after the current election cycle. Plus, the process itself gives Corvidae hope for the future of American democracy. “It’s at the heart of how democracy is supposed to work. And I think most of us are pretty divorced from that, and that’s part of the root of despair that people feel about American politics,” Corvidae says. “For me it creates a tremendous amount of hope for the future to actually understand how accessible this process is and what it means to walk through it.” There are currently 10 CCL chapters in five of the Colorado’s seven congressional districts with new ones in the process of organizing, including one in Longmont.

A “Species-Appropriate” Diet for your Dog follows Nature’s plan. Marty’s Meals knows the way our dogs’ ancestors ate in the wild is key to achieving optimal pet nutrition today. In an average week, wild canines ingest a variety of meat on four days, forage plants and berries for two, then often fast for a day. Feeding our Recipes in rotation – combined with raw meaty bones and grass-fed tripe – most closely emulates this natural diet. Dogs benefit from incorporating even one of these food groups into their regular meals. Visit our store to learn more about transitioning your dog to a raw diet, or to plan the optimal feeding program for your pet and budget.

The Foundation

25 Raw and Gently Cooked Dog Recipes are hand-prepared using fresh, human-grade, ethically-raised meats and protein sources that are free-range, wild-harvested and certified Non-GMO or Organic. Recipes are blended with 100% Organic vegetables and sprouted grains in proportions that follow a canine’s natural diet. The ingredients we source are never factory-farmed and we don’t use ground bone in our Recipes, (which has been found to contain high levels of heavy metals).

Marty’s Recipes provide maximum bioavailable nutrition through fresh, natural ingredients, (not by adding sprayed-on synthetic vitamins and minerals.)

Grass-fed Lamb & Beef Tripe

Raw Meaty & Marrow Bones

Chewing raw meaty bones is Nature’s choice for maintaining tooth, gum and jaw health. And they’re an excellent source of bioavailable calcium, phosphorous, protein and fat. Marty’s carries a wide variety of 100% human-grade, fresh, grass-fed and Organic raw bones. Dogs love them!

Marty’s Meals

Optimal Canine Feeding Program

Raw, grass-fed tripe is loaded with digestive enzymes and probiotics which help dogs absorb the most nutrients from their food. Tripe also provides an ideal balance of protein, fat and essential minerals. Including tripe in your dog’s diet can help with constipation, GI infections, irritable bowel syndrome, digestion, and overall immune health.

very year the University of Colorado Boulder athletic department, CU Athletics, uses 12 million gallons of water in the locker rooms, keeping the fields green and at sporting events. This year they decided to do something about it. CU Athletics and The CU Environmental Center teamed up to save 11 million gallons of water, restoring it to the dwindling Colorado River. CU Boulder’s campaign, Water for the West, is part of a bigger initiative called Change the Course that’s already restored almost 5 billion gallons to depleted rivers around the nation. Change the Course began in 2011 when a freshwater fellow at National Geographic, Sandra Postel, began brainstorming with then vice president of Bonneville Environmental Foundation’s (BEF) water stewardship program, Todd Reeve, to facilitate hands-on water conservation. They started by getting the public involved in conserving the Colorado River, which starts in the Rocky Mountains at La Poudre Pass and ends in the Gulf of California between the Baja Peninsula and mainland Mexico. The Colorado supplies drinking water, food, energy, recreation and work for 30 million Americans, according to Change the Course, but it’s so depleted that many years it no longer reaches the sea. Change the Course asked people to pledge to eat less meat, buy less stuff, recycle more and generally use less water. For every pledge, they promised to restore 1,000 gallons to the Colorado River basin. Then Change the Course got corporate sponsors on board like White Wave, parent company of brands such as Silk and Horizon Organic. And the initiative’s first action, led by White Wave, took place in far away Chicago.

Horseshoe Bend of the Colorado River, seen here in 2008, is a focus of restoration efforts.

CU Athletics wants water back in the Colorado Water for the West has restored 11 million gallons and counting to the Colorado River by Mollie Putzig “The Colorado basin isn’t only important to those companies and people living in the basin, it’s actually important to the entire country and internationally frankly,” says Val Fishman, chief development officer for BEF who assists CU’s campaign. White Wave created a 3-D chalk image of the Colorado River at Chicago’s Union Station so people could stand inside the drawing Mary Poppins-style and feel as if they were standing in the last waterfilled bend of the river before it dries up. They used the event to educate people about the

depleted river, which is responsible for food all across the country. Through the pledge people could help restore the Colorado even from the streets of Chicago. So how does it work? The answer is twofold — conservation and finagling our obstinate Western water laws. People first established water rights in the West by taking water out of rivers and putting it to “beneficial use” like mining and irrigation. Rights were first come first serve and lasted indefinitely so long as the water See WATER FOR THE WEST Page 20

was put to use. To this day people are afraid to give up any water at risk of losing their rights. But in 2003 the Colorado Legislature passed a law allowing rights holders to lease water back into streams for environmental purposes three out of 10 years without forsaking their claim. In 2012 Change the Course launched the first project to take advantage of that new law. “The Yampa River up near Steamboat, runs through Steamboat Springs, was about to crash ecologically,” Postel says. “It was flowing at 5 percent of normal during that late June period in summer.” BEF partnered with Colorado Water Trust and the Upper Yampa Water Conservancy District to lease water from the Stagecoach Reservoir upstream. The project restored 465 million gallons of water a year to the Yampa, reopening fisheries as well as tubing and fly-fishing activities. “A lot of our projects have to do with farms and ranches, irrigators because those are the biggest users of water in the West,” Postel says. “So we’re always looking for projects that basically improve the health of the river, but also are beneficial to the community.” Four years after the initial Change the Course action in Chicago, CU is joining the fight to refill the Colorado. The athletic center purchased Water Restoration Certificates from BEF to restore 10 million gallons. Water Restoration Certificates act like carbon credits and companies can pay BEF to restore the water while getting the credit for it. In addition, CU saved one million gallons of water this year by soliciting conservation pledges at basketball games. With a goal of 1,000 text pledges, 1,003 texts came in. “It was really about educating our fans and trying to affect change of our fan’s behaviors,” says Brandon Leimbach, senior manager at Learfield, CU’s sports marketing company. “That’s the neat thing about programs like Water for the West, we’re not just selling a brand, we’re trying to change our fans behaviors to get them more environmentally focused.” But Dave Newport, director of the Environmental Center, knew they could do more. The environmental center added to the initiative by sending students out to serve the community, installing low flow water equipment to underserved areas in Boulder County. Kohler, manufacturer of showers, sinks and toilets, liked what they were doing and donated low flow toilets. “That was one of the big pieces of this project was not only affecting behaviors of individuals like you and me,” Leimbach says. “But actually going into communities and really making a difference.” CU Boulder installed 35 toilets in affordable housing communities. Next school year they’re aiming for 100. The athletic center is also planning to extend the messaging into football as well as get other PAC 12 schools on board. Stanford University, University of Utah, Arizona State University and University of Arizona have already shown interest, Fishman says. The Universities of California at Los Angeles and Berkley held a pledge contest between the Bruins and the Trojans two years in a row to see who could restore more water. Change the Course projects have been so successful that they’ve been able to move beyond the Colorado River basin. Through BEF, Change the Course has completed more than 25 restoration projects throughout the West and into Mexico. Conservation efforts fall under five categories: Permanent transfers, where water rights are signed over to benefit rivers; Water leasing, where rights holder designate some of their water to environmental benefits temporarily; Water conservation, such as funding agricultural equipment that uses water more efficiently; Water management can modernize outdated irrigation technology that leaks 80 percent of water intended for crops; and acquiring wetland rights to improve groundwater tables and support local ecology. The projects range in savings from as small as 5,000 gallons to over a billion gallons and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service verifies the savings from each project. In less than a year CU Boulder managed to offset most of their water usage from one of the biggest users on campus. In an area of the country where water is one of the most precious resources, saving it is crucial and Change the Course can help.

Rocking the gap year

for college? What will you do after right now? Boulder’s Margo Hayes became familiar with these questions at a young age as a phenom climber with Team ABC, the youth climbing team at The Spot Bouldering Gym in Boulder. Since joining the team in 2008, she has stood on the podium 11 times in national youth climbing competitions, her future shining as brightly as her day-to-day accomplishments. Hayes is now 18 years old, having graduated high school in May of this year. She is in the process of stepping from one stage to the next — from kid to adult, high school to college, youth

eing caught in the middle of possibility and experience is a defining characteristic of youth. Somehow the experiences of the young are partially valuable for what they will become in the future. In anticipation, questions about what’s next abound: What do you want to do for work? Where will you go 22 July 7, 2016

champion to professional climber. Like many people in a transition period, she is frequently asked about what is next. Wise beyond her years, Hayes resists offering an easy answer. “It’s less like breaking surface tension and more like jumping into the ocean,” she says. “You are continuously pushing through the density of the water because it is one thing to motivate you to jump in, to make you believe in yourself, but it’s another to keep going. It’s continuous, like stepping stones, because the first ones lead to the next ones.” With such talent, it is tempting to posit some goal or crowning accomplishment destination, to mark the destination with an x on a map. As an idea though, success is not built on an ultimate achievement, but rather on the movement of succession that comes from the Latin word succedere meaning to come close after. It’s in admitting to the illusion of completion that true genius lives. Hayes has a strong sense of where she is Boulder Weekly

ADVENTURE going and of the values that will guide her along the way, like hard work and sportsmanship to name a few. But she has a firm patience in letting her future reveal itself as time passes. In the meantime, she sets incremental goals to guide her passion for the sport she pursues with an admirable commitment and work ethic. Just about a year ago Hayes decided that she wanted to start climbing outside more and to tackle more difficult routes with higher ratings. Within months she sent some impressive routes on the limestone walls in Rifle, Colorado, a climbing destination rarely visited by the then 17 year old. In one day she redpointed two 5.14a climbs and the next weekend she sent “Waka Flocka,” a 5.14b, on her fifth try and her first climb in the category. Hayes says that she paused and took a moment to celebrate her accomplishments, but there was no apparent break in the action. As soon as she broke through one limit, she was on to the next. In March of this year she travelled to Red River Gorge in Kentucky where she climbed her first 5.14c, “Pure Imagination,” a special route for Hayes, and for most women climbers for that matter. “Sasha DiGiulian sent the route about four years ago, making her the first American woman to send 5.14d (the route has been downgraded since 2011),” Hayes says. “I had that poster on my wall for years, and I would look at it every day and think about how badly I wanted to do that route someday. It was a big goal for me and when it happened it was kind of mind blowing.” The next day she did a slightly easier climb, “Omaha Beach,” a 5.14a in the Motherlode, an area that boasts the highest concentration of the steepest and longest routes at the Gorge and where most of the serious climbers spend their time. Hayes talks about the climb casually, making it sound easy as she describes the abundance of positive holds on the route that make it more of an endurance feat than a technical challenge. “After ‘Pure Imagination,’ I needed a little bit of breathing time to recover both emotionally and physically,” she says. “I think after you succeed at something that you have been dreaming about for a long time there is kind of this release, and you kind of just need this time to wind down.” The next time she went climbing outdoors was in France, a whole new scene without any huge expectations or goals. The time away helped her to realize just what she believes she is capable of, as once again she searches to discover her limits and figure out ways to break them. She is off to a good start this summer, most recently climbing “The Crew” at Rifle Mountain Park, her second 5.14c. The route is a perfect example of just what makes Hayes such a talented climber. The climb starts off with a series of big power moves that play to her sheer strength and a big part of why she has won accolades as a preeminent boulderer. But after the first six or so moves, it opens up into a classic endurance route that Hayes says is a natural match for her body type and mind-set. With more and more successes on increasingly difficult routes, the questions about what’s next for Hayes are piling up. “I keep the specific goals to myself,” she says. “But if I had to sum up the all around goal, I would say that it is to do things that seem impossible. That transition from what you imagine to be impossible to becoming possible is such an incredible feeling. “I have always been a curious and determined individual who loves to learn, no matter whether it is academic or just something about the world, or something about climbing or something about myself. I am continually asking questions because the more I learn, the more there is to learn.” Hayes is taking a year off before heading to college, extending the stage she now finds herself in, between her past history of extraordinary accomplishments and her potential. She doesn’t seem worried or stressed, just happy to be where she is. She’ll be climbing around Colorado and the U.S. this summer, then it’s off to the Youth World Climbing Competition in China in November and finally to France for some new experiences and new routes. In the midst of so much expectation, Hayes wisely excuses herself from the conversation to get back to the simple joys of climbing and of living. “I don’t ever think of a climb as something I want to check off or ‘take down.’ I never get angry at a rock,” she says. “It almost sounds cheesy, but I try to become one with the wall and enjoy it and just appreciate that I have the ability and the strength to even be on the beautiful rock that is in front of me.”

More than cursory Y Sara Watkins and Penny & Sparrow join forces at eTown Hall

ou can find music to be cathartic if you’re willing to be honest with it,” says Andy Baxter, lyricist and one half of the duo Penny & Sparrow. And honesty is at the forefront of his new album, Let a Lover Drown You, with guitarist Kyle Jahnke. The relative newcomers have made a name for themselves in the indie folk scene by combining Baxter’s poetic and often candid lyrics with Jahnke’s instrumentalism, solidified in sweeping harmonies. The band will head to eTown Hall for a live recording on July 14, and joining them on stage is singer/songwriter Sara Watkins, who brings a renewed focus to her lyrics on her latest album Young in All the Wrong Ways. Known for her long career both as part of the iconic bluegrass group Nickel Creek and various other projects, Watkins spent the last year and a half singing mostly cover songs as part of the Watkins Family Hour with brother Sean and other friends.

Penny & Sparrow’s newest release is While living in Austin, Baxter almost melancholic as he reflects back found himself intermittently homeless on broken relationships and lost loves. for a time before moving into a crowd“I wanted to experience that emoed, but creative, house with nine other tion all over again,” Baxter says of his guys including Jahnke.

hard is worth sticking around [for] because that type of love, the type without an escape path is really what I want.” Despite the album’s cursory, pensive tone, however, Baxter says ultimately there’s a lot of joy and hope behind his lyrics. “We wanted to write honestly, which means your songs are going to contain some melancholy but if you write honestly, also, it’s not all bleak,” Baxter says. “There’s a ton of hope if there’s any reading into the lyrics. Granted that’s easy for me to say because I wrote them.” Heeding advice from an author friend, the duo combines their melancholy sound with a certain humor in presentation, allowing the audience to breathe a bit, while still able to take in the depth of emotion presented in the music. Plus, the “ridiculous” joking and laughing in between songs at their shows is a large part of the honesty Baxter hopes to express. “If we weren’t to be joyful on stage or express levity and happiness, it would feel disingenuous because we’re not brooding sadballs all the time,” Baxter says. Penny & Sparrow’s chemistry on stage is a natural product of a long and close friendship that’s had it’s fair share of disagreements and arguments, which, according to Baxter, has only made their bond stronger. “Humanity is such a huge ball of insecurity that the second things get hard, it’s like we’re allergic to difficult conversation,” he says. “We disengage with friendship, we disengage with romantic relationship and all the while we should have expected that shit all along. ... The fact that an argument comes should not be shocking at all. What should be shocking is our aversion to dealing with it and seeing it through to the other side.” Both Watkins and Baxter are hesitant to share too much of the personal stories that inspired the new albums. As Watkins explains, she doesn’t want to take away from the listener’s ability to resonate with the lyrics, to make each song their own. “I don’t want them to have to listen to my life,” she says. “I want them to hear their own life in the album. Ideally it’s relatable.” For both Watkins and Penny & Sparrow, this feat has been achieved on their newest albums. The music is cathartic, honest, relatable and whatever else it makes you feel.

ans of Brahms’s warm Romanticism (and who in the classical audience isn’t?) have much to look forward to. In three concerts, the Colorado Music Festival (CMF) will present five of his most popular works. First, CMF music director Jean-Marie Zeitouni will lead the Festival Orchestra in a cycle of the four symphonies on two nights, July 7 and 8. Then a week later, former director Michael Christie makes his first return to the festival to conduct a program including the Brahms First Piano Concerto with pianist Orion Weiss July 14. The performances of the four symphonies — Nos. 1 and 2 on July 7, 3 and 4 on July 8 — represents a return of the CMF’s mini-festival concept of works by a single composer. “It’s such a coherent experience to do all four Brahms symphonies next to each other,” Zeitouni says. “By listening to them all together, we get in closer contact with him as a man. “We wanted to start a long-term program at the festival where we would put together cycles of works of single composers. Doing a cycle allows us more leeway for playing lesser-known works of well known composers. I chose Brahms (to start with) because it’s a cycle that we can do all in the same week.” This year’s programming places the symphonies in chronological order, and that is more than a convenience. For Zeitouni, the ordering makes sense in a deeper way. For one thing, the symphonies were written essentially in pairs, as they will be heard each night. “He took forever until he felt ready to [write a symphony], and then he delivered two,” Zeitouni says, referring to the fact that Brahms completed his First Symphony at 43. Nos. 1 and 2 appeared in 1876 and ’77, “and then there’s a big gap. Then he writes 3 and 4 (in 1883 and ’84). To me, the four symphonies go together two by two.”

This playful production by famous puppeteer Betsy Tobin is an audible and visual delight. Famous for the intricate illusions with shadows, the sets and characters themselves are quite a spectacle. Auspicious Adventures is a comedy about a girl in an unknown land experiencing culture shock, a story that pulls on Tobin’s own experiences with Indian and Balinese artforms. Choreographer Kathryn Moller assists in the production, which is recommended for audiences aged 10 and up. — Katie Porter

by Stephen Behrendt American Life in Poetry: Column 586: This past autumn, pruning a big lilac bush, I found a snakeskin that some bird had woven into its nest. Here’s a poem about another find, from Stephen Behrendt, who lives and teaches in Nebraska. His most recent book is Refractions, from Shechem Press. — Ted Kooser, U.S.

“It was definitely one of the most fun camps I went to this summer (believe me, I went to a lot) and I came back for seconds. It taught me how to make music with other musicians and that will be very useful for the future. And I learned how to take a better solo.” Student

Reasonable rates and fast turn around time. “The ability of the instructors to help these kids find their creativity, create songs, maximize their musical ability, and get up on stage and be stars is always impressive. Participating with his band at Dog House has improved not only his musical ability, but also his confidence, creativity, sense of responsibility, and his ability to work with a group.” - Parent

Pruning back the old spirea bushes that sprawled for years in summer’s heat, I bared the snake skin, a yard and a half long: its naked empty length rippled in the streaming wind lifting its ghostly coils from the dead shoots that scraped the slough from the slithering body that shed it in that narrow, shaded space. I paused — who wouldn’t? — shears poised, slipped off gray canvas gloves, extracted the sere, striated casing from the brown stalks that had held it, silent, hidden. I coiled the paper-thin curling sheath with care, delicately, eased it into a simple squatty box for keeping, for care, for my daughters to take to school, to show, to explain how some sinuous body we’ve never glimpsed, that haunts about our shrubs, our porch, left for us this translucent, scale-scored wrapper, this silent hint of all that moves unseen.

film Majestical or just majestic? ‘Hunt for the Wilderpeople’ is the funniest film of the year

amily units are fascinating things. Some come ready-made, while others must be ON THE BILL: Hunt for the Wilderpeople. July forged out of sheer will. That’s what 13–16, The Boedecker Ricky ( Julian Dennison) is hoping for, Theater, 2590 Walnut St, but this is his last chance. The overweight Boulder, 303-440-7825, thedairy.org. orphan has spent his entire young life in and out of foster care and if he can’t make this one work, it’s juvie for Ricky. With no knowledge of his father and only a picture of his teenage mother, Ricky has turned to the gangster’s life for guidance: “I didn’t choose the skuxx life, the skuxx life chose me.” He is a troublemaker, a vandal, a miscreant in baggy pants and a zip-up hoodie, one that zips-up over his entire face. He’s about as gangster as a 13-year-old New Zealander can be. Luckily for Ricky, Aunt Bella (Rima Te Wiata) is as kind-hearted as the surrounding New Zealand woods are wild. Living on a remote farm with her husband, Uncle Hec (Sam Neill), Bella adopts the youngster and makes him feel nothing but love. She gives him his own room, his own dog — Ricky names him Tupac — and writes him a welcoming song. For the first time in forever, Ricky has Orphan Ricky is looking for a family of his own in found home. Hunt for the Wilderpeople. But as quickly as things come, they go, and Bella dies suddenly. A short and unsentimental mourning period follows, and Hec decides that Ricky should return to the foster home. With no intention of going back, Ricky fakes his death and heads off into the woods with Tupac. Hec follows but breaks his ankle in the process, forcing Ricky and Hec to camp out for six weeks while Hec heals up. During which, a social worker, the police and mercenary rangers tear the forest apart looking for Ricky and Hec. The majority of Hunt for the Wilderpeople — Ricky’s nickname for himself and Hec — takes place in that forest as the twosome makes their way through the wilderness, crossing paths with incompetent rangers, a star-struck father and his earthy daughter and one off-the-grid conspiracy nut, Psycho Sam (Rhys Darby with impeccable comedic timing). Their odyssey brings Ricky and Hec closer together, with Hec revealing that both he and Bella were orphans. All three of them were cast off, until Bella brought them under the same roof. It is never explicitly stated, but the longer that Ricky and Hec stay together, the more present Bella feels. The family is secure. Adapted from the novel Wild Pork and Watercress by Barry Crump, Hunt for the Wilderpeople is a droll walk in the woods. Writer/director Taika Waititi brings the perfect combination of heart and humor and displays a keen eye for comedic staging, planimetric inserts and the potency of incongruous images. The sight of Ricky’s rotund silhouette next to Hec’s grizzled visage is endlessly entertaining. Hunt for the Wilderpeople isn’t exactly a surprising story — it plays out precisely as you hope — but it is a surprising movie. Surprising that it starts as strong as it does and maintains that momentum to its gonzo ending, preserving the family unit all the way through. In a summer loaded with loud franchises hell-bent on destroying the planet, Hunt for the Wilderpeople is a cleansing breath of fresh air. Boulder Weekly

deep dish Ten ways to eat better and avoid being ripped off by the supermarket by Eugenia Bone

W i

frie nce upon a time, home cooks used everything B in s/ mo from their meats and vegetables: stems m Co ia and peels and bones and fat. We’ve ed m ki been conditioned to believe this is garbage. But that’s because we are the unknowing victims of the industrialized food system. Yes, it’s a conspiracy. So here are 10 typically discarded foods that can be used to augment your cooking, reduce your carbon footprint and stick it to the man. 1) It’s a rip off to buy chicken parts. If you buy the whole chicken, you not only get the meat, but also the bones, from which you can make stock. If you ever did a side-by-side tasting of homemade stock and commercial stock, you’d see why. 2) It’s a shame to buy carrots without the greens. Carrots were originally cultivated for the greens, not the root. They make fabulous pesto (pick off the leaves and blanch first) and can be used as a fresh herb. 3) It’s a waste to throw out beet water. When you boil beets, wash them first. The ruby water is fabulous. You can drink it straight and warm (kind of health foodie), add vodka (kind of repulsive, but I am a gin drinker) or make granita with it, which is incredibly tasty and holds forever in the fridge. 4) It’s a mistake to buy duck breasts. Buy the whole duck! Once you learn how to cut it up (not that complicated), you’ll have two breasts, two legs, the bones which make fantastic stock and the fat, which you can render and use to make confit another day. 5) It’s a bummer to discard the shells of oranges after you juice them. The rinds are gold! Before juicing, zest the rinds with a vegetable peeler and dry them on a

cookie sheet. That’s the fundamental flavor of homemade orange bitters, key to a really intoxicating Old Fashioned. 6) It sucks to throw out the vinegar in the bottom of the pickle jar. Boil vegetables and dress them with the pickle juice, make vinaigrette with it or use it as a whiskey back. Pickle juice is flavored vinegar: Why buy it when you probably have some in the fridge right now? 7) It’s silly to buy the fillet of a fish when you can buy the whole fish. Cutting the fillet off a flat or round fish is not complicated. I mean, there are not a lot of parts to a fish. So you get the fillets, but then you get the bones, too! And the bones, thrown into a pot with some herbs and savory vegetables, make a beautiful stock. 8) It’s dumb to throw out the marinade in the bottom of the marinated peppers or artichokes jar. That stuff is pure flavor. Brown some chicken and finish cooking in the marinade and you’ll never throw it out again. 9) It’s a tragedy to throw away those corncobs. They are packed with sweetness. After you’ve cut off the kernels, pop the cobs in a stockpot with water and bay. They make a lovely aromatic broth in less than an hour, which is the base for a corn or vegetable soup, or good for poaching fish. 10) Don’t throw away lobster heads and shells. Where do you think lobster bisque comes from? And lobster butter and lobster reduction? Boil those heads with water and bay leaf, and open all the windows. In an hour or two the resulting stock will be divine. In four hours the resulting reduction will be like a demi glace. And you know what to do with that. Yes, just a spoon.

Market really helped the process and introduced Boulder to fresh ingredients from here that weren’t adulterated, like tomatoes picked when they were ripe, not gassed. Q: What makes an Italian dish ‘authentic?’ A: The problem with recipes for Italian dishes is that cooks codified something that had always been

improvisational and changed depending on the ingredients available.

La Famiglia Laudisio: The Cookbook.

Q: What was the favorite dish your Mom cooked for you? A: Definitely spaghetti and eggs. It was pasta with crisp eggs, a lot of Parmesan and love.

1 pound spaghetti 4 tablespoons olive oil (best quality) 2 cloves garlic, crushed 6 large eggs 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil, chopped

Here is Antonio Laudisio’s recipe for Spaghetti with Eggs from

Spaghetti All’Uovo

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Bring salted water to boil in large pot, add spaghetti, cook until “al dente” ... that means “firm to the tooth” ... not soft! Heat olive oil and garlic over medium flame in a large skillet. Be careful not to brown the garlic because that will give it a bitter taste. Add eggs and fry carefully over medium heat, with yolks not runny, but slightly firm. Drain pasta, reserving pasta water on the side. Put spaghetti in the frying pan and slowly add pasta water (to just moisten, not soak). Toss gently with eggs and garlic, then the Parmesan, crushed red pepper and basil, salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot and sprinkled with parsley on a warmed platter. Yield: About four servings.

June is All About The Guy Dad and Endless Fondue Taste of the Week

Dipping With D Kim Long If you grew up with a parent from central Europe like I did, you know about heavy bread — dark brown loaves of mostly whole wheat berries and seeds, think pumpernickel on steroids. I was happy to discover a tastier heavy bread hiding behind luscious Danish pastries at Taste of Denmark, 1901 S. Kipling St., Lakewood. Their weighty multigrain bread is dense with sunflower seeds, flax seeds, wheat berries and a little flour. The bakery recommends leaving the loaf unbagged on your counter for a couple of days to dry out before you slice it thinly. Toasted it’s delicious, and it comes with a high fiber halo.

ith summer here, the frequency of poolside barbeques, lazy picnics and late nights on the patio is rising just as quickly as the mercury. This means lots more time outside, and consequently, a different cocktail menu. Summertime drinking is about simplicity. Easy drinking beers like Budweiser, Corona and Pabst Blue Ribbon pair perfectly with hot dogs and hamburgers. Pitcher drinks like sangria are quick and always a hit. Premixed frozen cocktails like strawberry daiquiris and piña coladas eliminate prep time and transport guests to the tropics. For wine enthusiasts, finding the perfect summertime match can be daunting. With wine, simple has become synonyWikimedia Commons/Valdavia mous with cheap — and serious oenophiles steer clear of mass-produced plonk. For outdoor entertaining, though, the good stuff is typically too expensive — and too fussy. Just as no one sniffs and savors a PBR, it’s nice to enjoy a glass of wine every now and then without taking things too seriously. This summer, I’ll be reaching for Txakolina. Also known as “Txakoli,” the wine is unpretentious and refreshing — and virtually every bottle is well under $20. While the spelling suggests a tongue twister, “Txakolina” actually rolls right off the tongue. Say it with me: “Cha-koh-lee-na.” Txakolina hails from Basque country, the coastal region straddling northeast Spain and southwest France. The Basques have called local, homemade wine “Txakolina” since at least 1520. But up through the 19th century, when phylloxera, the grapevine pest, ravaged Europe’s vineyards, most of the region’s wines were still reds. Modernization took quite some time; the region didn’t take wine seriously again until the late 1980s, when native varieties like hondarrabi zuri were replanted. Local vignerons were thus able to reinvent the region’s wines, coupling traditional techniques like hand-harvesting with modern tools like temperature control to create something entirely new: a low-alcohol, slightly effervescent white with tangy flavors and zippy acidity. To capitalize on the novelty of their local wine, Basque restaurants and bars reinvented wine service by pouring Txakolina into tall tumblers from great heights. It’s quite a sight. Many of the best Txakolinas come into the United States thanks to De Maison Selections, an importer based in North Carolina. When I asked Todd Schneider, who directs sales for Bacchus, the Washington, D.C., distributor for De Maison Selections, why Txakolina is such a great fit for warm weather, he responded with his own question. “Wow, I think the better question might be, ‘Is there anything about Txakolina that doesn’t scream summer?’ My answer would be, emphatically, ‘No!’ It’s light, crisp, mineral-driven and incredibly fresh. Txakolina is the perfect wine for those summer days on your deck or porch.” Schneider’s enthusiasm is certainly warranted. Too often, wine drinkers are painted as snobbish and cerebral — the sorts who discuss aromas of kirsch and cassis while beer swiggers focus on drinking, crushing can after can without a care. Txakolina is easy. And in the summertime, that’s what drinking is all about. David White is the founder and editor of Terroirist.com. His columns are housed at Grape Collective.

ARIES

MARCH 21-APRIL 19: Events in the coming week may

trick your mind and tweak your heart. They might mess with your messiah complex and wreak havoc on your habits. But I bet they will also energize your muses and add melodic magic to your mysteries. They will slow you down in such a way as to speed up your evolution, and spin you in circles with such lyrical grace that you may become delightfully clear-headed. Will you howl and moan? Probably, but more likely out of poignant joy, not from angst and anguish. Might you be knocked off course? Perhaps, but by a good influence, not a bad one.

TAURUS

APRIL 20-MAY 20: In the book A Survival Guide to the

Stress of Organizational Change, the authors tell you how to raise your stress levels. Assume that others are responsible for lowering your stress levels, they say. Resolve not to change anything about yourself. Hold on to everything in your life that’s expendable. Fear the future. Get embroiled in trivial battles. Try to win new games as you play by old rules. Luckily, the authors also offer suggestions on how to reduce your stress. Get good sleep, they advise. Exercise regularly. Don’t drink too much caffeine. Feel lots of gratitude. Clearly define a few strong personal goals, and let go of lesser wishes. Practice forgiveness and optimism. Talk to yourself with kindness. Got all that, Taurus? It’s an excellent place to start as you formulate your strategy for the second half of 2016.

GEMINI

MAY 21-JUNE 20: Normally I’m skeptical about miracu-

lous elixirs and sudden cures and stupendous breakthroughs. I avoid fantasizing about a “silver bullet” that can simply and rapidly repair an entrenched problem. But I’m setting aside my caution as I evaluate your prospects for the coming months. While I don’t believe that a sweeping transformation is guaranteed, I suspect it’s far more likely than usual. I suggest you open your mind to it.

CANCER

JUNE 21-JULY 22: As I gaze into my crystal ball and invoke a vision of your near future, I find you communing with elemental energies that are almost beyond your power to control. But I’m not worried, because I also see that the

spirit of fun is keeping you safe and protected. Your playful strength is fully unfurled, ensuring that love always trumps chaos. This is a dream come true: You have a joyous confidence as you explore and experiment with the Great Unknown, trusting in your fluidic intuition to guide you.

LEO

JULY 23-AUG. 22: “You can only go halfway into the

darkest forest,” says a Chinese coming out the other side.” You will soon reach that midpoint, Leo. You may not recognize how far you have already come, so it’s a good thing I’m here to give you a heads-up. Keep the faith! Now here’s another clue: As you have wandered through the dark forest, you’ve been learning practical lessons that will come in handy during the phase of your journey that will begin after your birthday.

Now I suggest that you compose a few thank-you notes similar to the one I’ve written here. Address them to the people in your life who move you and feed you and transform you the best.

AQUARIUS

JAN. 20-FEB. 18: After an Illinois man’s wife whacked

him in the neck with a hatchet, he didn’t hold a grudge. Just the opposite. Speaking from a hospital room while recovering from his life-threatening wound, Thomas Deas testified that he still loved his attacker and hoped they could reconcile. Is this admirable or pathetic? I’ll go with pathetic. Forgiving one’s allies and loved ones for their mistakes is wise, but allowing and enabling their maliciousness and abuse should be taboo. Keep that standard in mind during the coming weeks, Aquarius. People close to you may engage in behavior that lacks full integrity. Be compassionate but tough-minded in your response.

Dear Dan: I’m a cis woman in my late 20s. About three months ago, I had my first one-night stand. I’ve noticed my thoughts have continued to gravitate toward this man ever since — despite having other sexual partners in the interim. I recently ran across his profile on Tinder — however, I’m fairly sure he hasn’t logged on for a while as certain things weren’t up to date. While I obviously swiped right, I’m curious as to whether it would be seen as © LaRae Lobdell inappropriate or possibly invasive if I were to reach out via the powers of social media. The night we had went well — it was all incredibly comfortable sexually, and I found him very interesting to talk to both before and after we hooked up. I should mention that I left rather swiftly that evening without grabbing his number in an attempt to “play it cool.” I definitely don’t want to cross social or personal boundaries, but I’d like to see him again. — Creep

Boulder Weekly

SAVAGE by Dan Savage

Dear C: There’s nothing creepy about letting someone you fucked know you wanna fuck ’em again or, hey, maybe even date ’em for a while. It gets creepy only if they don’t respond, or if they politely decline, and you keep letting them know you would like to fuck/date them some more. You liked him, you had a nice time, the sex was good — and you left, stupidly, without his number for fear of looking clingy or uncool. Social media has come with costs — trolls, bullying, Donald Trump’s Twitter feed — but the ability to locate someone and ask for a doover/screw-over is one of the benefits. So look him up on Facebook or Instagram and send him a note. If you don’t hear back, consider yourself

swiped left and move on. Dear Dan: I’ve been lying to myself. I told myself that stability and friendship were more important to me than sex. I’ve been with my husband for 12 years, and we’ve been married for five of those. We were best friends, and I was already in love before we started dating and before we ever had sex. I should have known in the beginning that we weren’t sexually compatible, but I chose to ignore it (or I chose stability and friendship). I chose my best friend and have been suffering ever since. Luckily, I listen to your advice on a regular basis, and I’ve started having more open conversations about my feelings and my wants and needs. About a year ago, my husband and I decided to open our relationship. This was all my idea, and I’m not sure he’s fully into it. We agreed to a “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy, and a month ago we finally acted on it. I met someone in an open relationship and had sex with them.

It was amazing — everything about it. In the end, I didn’t feel guilty, but I did want to tell my husband. I still feel the need to get his approval, but I also know that he doesn’t want to hear it. If he gave me the go-ahead, even though everything was my idea, should I feel guilty, or just happy for finally getting what I needed from someone? Are there baby steps I can take to tell my husband these things, or do I just keep them to myself? I feel like this is saving our marriage, but society probably just looks at me like a cheating whore. —Feelings Are Insanely, Terribly Hard For Unsure Lovers Dear FAITHFUL: You have your husband’s approval to do what you did, but his approval was contingent upon you not telling him what you did. Honor the commitment you made to your husband, FAITHFUL, by keeping your mouth shut. You’ll doubtless have conversations in the future about your relationship, and about monogamy, and you can ask him if he wants to stick with “don’t ask, don’t tell.” If he says yes, continue to keep your mouth shut.

decades since, only three concerts have been held at Folsom Field. In the days leading up to Dead & Company’s Saturday night show, the anticipation was palpable as pockets of Boulder transformed into reincarnations of the ghost of Boulder past. Icons of yesteryear dotted the town as hippie busses rolled in, tie dye shirts took over downtown and groups of people splayed out on colorful tapestries laid down on sidewalks and city lawns. When the first note of the first song, “Bertha,” broke the decades long silence at Folsom Field the nostalgia broke too, as years of bottled up memories gave way to a new era, reminiscent of days past but with a new energy for a new age. It’s hard to know what meaning Rob Hunter intended in the lyrics, but to listen to John Mayer sing them as Bob Weir strummed by his side, it was hard not to think about birth, death and reincarnation as one era yielded to the next. When Rolling Stone asked why he was continuing to tour with Dead & Company, Weir said, “There is nothing rote happening there. We’re not playing out of habits. The songs are anew for us.” Throughout the show, the air was filled with marijuana smoke as bowls and joints were passed among strangers and friends alike. For the first time in 70 years the cannabis wasn’t contraband, and there was something liberating about listening to the music with that in mind. Public consumption still isn’t allowed, but it seemed to get a pass for the weekend at least, as legal nuances were passed over for the spirit of the law. As marijuana steps out of the shadows of prohibition into the light of legalization, it isn’t just the narrative of the plant that is changing. It is a ripple effect, a greater shift in consciousness. “It’s a handme-down, the thoughts are broken,” the Dead sings. “Perhaps they’re better left unsung, I don’t know, don’t really care, Let there be songs to fill the air.” This opinion column does not necessarily reflect the views of Boulder Weekly.

Regulate alcohol like marijuana?

W ik im

he official name of Amendment 64, the ballot initiative that legalized recreational marijuana in Colorado, was the “Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol”. Amendment 64 was passed in 2012 with 55 percent of the vote (66 percent in Boulder County), and legal marijuana became a reality in Colorado on January 1, 2014. But the ya regulatory regime that has been applied to marijuana is ons/Ziv m far more severe than anything alcohol has been sub- Com ia jected to. ed If there’s any doubt on this point, try this thought experiment: Think what obtaining booze would be like if instead of marijuana being regulated like alcohol, alcohol were regulated like marijuana. The booze-buying experience would be something like this: A visit to a liquor store would begin with a clerk asking to see your ID, which isn’t too different from what happens today, but the ID would be subjected to much closer scrutiny than the check it receives today. If you’re wearing sun-glasses, chances are you will be asked to take them off so that the clerk can compare your photo with your face. Your license may also be swiped through some sort of a scanner, which presumably will check it against a state database. Instead of going directly into the store and choosing among thousands of kinds of beer, wine and distilled spirits displayed on supermarket-style shelves, you would be asked to take a seat in a waiting room until a booze tender in a separate room, where the alcoholic beverages were actually sold, was available to wait on you. The experience would be more like waiting to see a doctor than making a beer run. When a booze tender became available and you were allowed to enter the holy of holies where the alcoholic beverages were kept, the first thing your personal booze tender would do is check your ID a second time. The shopping experience would not be like going into a store and grab420

El ements Bo ulder 56

bing a bottle of scotch off a shelf or a couple of six-packs out of a cooler. The booze tender would be behind a counter and most of the merchandise would be behind the booze tender. In some stores the booze tender would bottle your purchase from a store barrel or vat instead of selling you prebottled beverages. Instead of being able to choose among thousands of beers, wines and liquors, your selection would be limited to a few dozen choices. There would be a strict limit on the amount of booze you could buy in a single trip to the store — maybe a couple of six-packs of beer or a bottle of scotch. There would be a legal limit on how much booze you could possess at any one time. You would not be able to put your purchase on your credit card — booze selling would be a cash only business, although some stores would take debit cards. Most stores would have an ATM machine available so you could get the cash to make your purchase. Your beer would come in a childproof container. Alcohol consumers wouldn’t put up with this sort of over-regulation for a nanosecond. Yet alcohol demonstrably causes much more violence and anti-social behavior than marijuana does. Marijuana consumers and sellers put up with it because that was what it took to overcome 70 years of reefer-madness lying by pot prohibitionists inside and outside of the government. Yet there is no question that the result of marijuana’s over-regulation is that a visit to a marijuana dispensary is only slightly more exciting than a visit to a drug store. Recently an attempt to open a marijuana dispensary in Niwot (which was ultimately approved) turned into a NIMBY cause celeb, with some opponents acting as though the Hell’s Angels were trying to open a biker bar in their neighborhood. It makes me wonder how many of those opposing the dispensary had ever been inside one.

(IN CASE YOU MISSED IT) An irreverent and not always accurate view of the world

TAXES ARE HARD

Look, we get it. Being one of the best soccer player in the world must be really hard. You’re kind of a huge deal in the part of the world that considers soccer a religion, which is pretty much all of the world minus the United States of Football. Between all the World Cups, Olympics and big ol’ trophies, it’s no surprise that Lionel Messi didn’t learn to do taxes. On July 6, a Barcelona court found him, and his dear old daddy, guilty of three counts of tax fraud in the paltry amount of $4.6 Wikimedia Commons/m.caimary million and sentenced them to 21 months in prison. To be fair you guys, in 2014 he signed a contract with Barcelona for only 20 million euros per season until June 2019. That’s not counting endorsements, which total $28 million, giving him a net worth of a little more than $80 million. According to Forbes, that makes him 2016’s second highest paid athlete in the world, just after Cristiano Ronaldo. So get off Messi’s back, the guy has come on rough times and he had to cook the books a little. Thankfully the Spanish court will get off Messi’s back. As it is in the world of celebrities, sports super stars and U.S. presidential candidates who delete bajillions of emails from a private server, Messi will probably face no jail time. Under Spanish law, if sentences are under two years and there is no previous criminal history then time can be completed with probation. You gotta love those technicalities. Surely Messi will learn his lesson serving time in his soccer ball-shaped mansion — yeah, he has a soccer ball-shaped mansion.

ICE CREAM A NO-GO In an effort to make Boulder, well, more Boulder-y, don’t expect to find refreshingly delicious, creamy smooth ice cream products at city parks and rec centers this summer. The summer days of saving up your pennies (these days Benjamins) for the sheer joy of purchasing ice cream at the pool are over. OVER. Boulder Parks and Recreation has discontinued all ice cream products from its facilities because of large portion sizes and high sugar content. They are replacing the ice cream machines with wheat grass juicers and kombucha brewers instead, right next to the kale chips variety packs and carrot sticks. But don’t fret too much. City facilities still have a “bring your own” policy, which means you can fill up that cooler with as many ice cream sandwiches, Drumsticks, individual serving sizes and even whole pints to be consumed at your leisure. Heck, bring out grandma’s ice cream maker and hand-crank some of your own to share with friends. Or you can even alert your friendly neighborhood ice cream truck to circle the premises, acting as a pied-piper drawing all the kids to itself. Or, you can always settle for the lame fresh fruit popsicles still available for purchase. Next thing you know they’ll ban all your pool noodles and floaties because they’re harmful to the environment. Thanks Obama. 60 July 7, 2016
