This year’s Power Issue list (p. 21) undoubtedly has some expected names, but it also includes a few new faces, not least of whom is Zyahna Bryant, a rising high school senior who had the courage to stand up to hate two years ago, when she called for the removal of the Robert E.

“Gussy up and be part of the magic” was the directive for anyone headed to the Southern Café and Music Hall on Saturday, June 23, when Butchertown Burlesque transported the crowd to the roaring ’20s during its decadent live show. After inviting audience members to “join in the revelry and release their inner flapper, bootlegger or juke joint Judy,” the Butchertown Cats Orchestra let rip with jazz, blues and swing from Virginia-grown musicians, while “stripteasing sirens” performed a variety of risqué routines.

—Trina Murphy, advocate for Help Save the Next Girl
Another Murphy tragedy Xavier Grant Murphy, 23, son of domestic violence advocate Trina Murphy and cousin of murdered Nelson teen Alexis Murphy, is charged with second-degree murder in the June 22 slaying of Tatiana Wells, 21, at the Xavier Grant Murphy Days Inn.
Richard Allan Fox, co-owner of Roslyn Farm and Vineyard, resigned from his seat on the Albemarle County Republican Committee, because he says he can’t support U.S. Senate candidate Corey Stewart, who has not denounced Unite the Right rally participants, and who has said the Civil War was not about slavery.
Trump administration employees are not alone in being unwelcome at a dining establishment. Local “white civil rights” agitator Jason Kessler reportedly was banned for life from Miller’s last year when protesters shouting “Nazi go home” became bad for business.
WHITES-RIGHTER SEEKS PERMIT Speaking of Kessler, the Unite the Right organizer is looking for a place to hold an anniversary rally August 11 and 12. City Manager Maurice Jones denied his application for a permit December 11, and Kessler filed a civil lawsuit against the city and Jones, alleging the denial unconstitutionally was based on the content of his speech. On June 22, his attorneys filed a motion for a preliminary injunction to force the city to allow his two-day event and to provide security for demonstrators and the public. According to a memo filed with the motion, Kessler contends counterprotesters were responsible for the violence. “Counterprotester misconduct constitutes a heckler’s veto and cannot be used as a justification to shut down Mr. Kessler’s speech by the city,” says the memo.
Kessler sued last year when the city tried to move his white nationalist rally from Emancipation Park to McIntire, and a judge sided with him in an August 11 decision that was made about the same time neo-Nazis were marching through UVA Grounds shouting, “Jews will not replace us.” At press time, a hearing for the injunction had not been scheduled. Many of those who attended the rally last year have said they will not return for a redo, but Kessler is asking those who want to come to be prepared to go to either Charlottesville or Washington. His application for a “white civil rights rally” in Lafayette Square has received preliminary approval from the National Park Service, but a permit has not been issued.

ABC settles with Johnson
hen two former C-VILLE Weekly writers opened the Red Hen in Lexington in 2009, they loved everything about the Rockbridge County college town—except its lack of a farm-to-table eatery. Since then, the restaurant has become a renowned fine dining option, and that could be why White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her party of eight came to dine June 22. Owner and UVA alum Stephanie Wilkinson, who used to write about literary happenings for C-VILLE and later was publisher of Brain, Child magazine, asked Sanders to leave because of her work for “an inhumane and unethical” administration, Wilkinson told the Washington Post. [Co-founder John Blackburn is no longer an owner of the restaurant.] Sanders confirmed on Twitter she’d been 86ed, the second Trump administration official to not be welcomed into a dining establishment in a week, although Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, another UVA alum, left a D.C. Mexican restaurant because of protesters chanting, “Shame.” Outrage—and appreciation—over Wilkinson’s action ensued, and other unaffiliated Red Hens around the country received death threats. By Saturday night, the Red Hen did not open because of safety concerns, according to [former C-VILLE Weekly editor] Hawes Spencer’s report on NPR. Its Yelp page is going through active cleanup because of non-food-related comments, says the site. And by June 25, POTUS himself tweeted, “The Red Hen Restaurant should focus more on cleaning its filthy canopies, doors and windows (badly needs a paint job) rather than refusing to serve a fine person like Stephanie Wilkinson Sarah Huckabee Sanders.”

But their emails! Councilors must turn over documents in monument suit By Samantha Baars news@c-ville.com
I
FILE PHOTOS
n a lawsuit aimed at keeping the statues of Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson in Charlottesville, city councilors have been ordered to turn over documents related to conversations about removing them—a decision the council made, initially just to remove Lee, in a 3-2 vote in February 2017. On June 19, Charlottesville Circuit Court Judge Rick Moore ordered that current councilors Wes Bellamy, Mike Signer and Kathy Galvin, and former councilors Bob Fenwick and Kristin Szakos, who were serving at the time of the vote, would have to supply documents dating back to September 2016. Plaintiffs are asking for paper trails, including emails, text messages, phone calls, memos and videos from official city accounts and councilors’ private servers, and have specifically asked for those between the city leaders and members of activist groups such as Black Lives Matter and Showing Up for Racial Justice, according to acting city attorney Lisa Robertson. “The plaintiffs are showing their hand,” she said. “It comes close to a witch hunt,
Wes Bellamy
Mike Signer
your honor, and I don’t know any other word for it.” According to the lawsuit, plaintiffs include 11 individuals, such as attorney Fred Payne, a city resident who “enjoys both Lee Park and Jackson Park and the monuments erected therein on a regular basis,” and two groups: the Monument Fund and the Virginia Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans. The suit was filed in March 2017, before the spaces were renamed Emancipation and Justice parks. Robertson argued that the plaintiffs didn’t succinctly define the type of documents they’re seeking, and that the range of dates from which they want to collect evidence was too wide. (Although the judge
Kathy Galvin
Bob Fenwick
ruled that councilors would need to sort through materials dating back to September 2016, plaintiffs had originally asked for that through January 2016.) Plaintiffs attorney Ralph Main didn’t deny that the scope of evidence was large. “We wanted to find out if there was something going on ahead of time,” he said. “I don’t think it’s a fishing expedition.” Robertson called the plaintiffs’ request “painful” and asked the judge if he had any idea of the sheer volume of emails councilors received from people all over the nation in the wake of their decision to remove Lee and Jackson. And Moore said, yes, because of the national movement to contact city clerk Llezelle Dugger, and tell her how he
Kristin Szakos
should rule. Through her, Moore said he received “thousands” of messages. He then ruled that councilors would not need to turn over messages they received, and only the ones they sent. Last week, Moore ruled that councilors are not immune to legal fees or paying for damages related to their vote to remove the Confederate statues, and Robertson said it could be two more weeks before the city’s insurance company is able to determine who’s covered. Individual councilors may have separate attorneys, and should not be compelled to turn over evidence until that’s sorted out, argued Robertson. But Main said deadlines are quickly approaching, and they’ve been parties in the suit since it was filed.

Stressed test Life with the highest health insurance premiums in country By Lisa Provence lisa@c-ville.com
Massage therapist Jane Neldon has been unable to relax about being able to pay for her health insurance.
their mortgage. “It’s unthinkable,” she says. The couple is considering a move to Waynesboro, and while insurance isn’t the main reason, “it is a factor,” she says. Bardeen stresses that during her visit to Sentara Martha Jefferson’s ER, her caregivers “were very conscious” about her health insurance concerns. Sentara also owns Optima.
On July 1, a Senator Creigh Deeds bill goes into effect that allows self-employed people like Neldon to get the coverage available for small businesses. And Deeds and Delegate David Toscano are working on other bills, such as one that would require more transparency in hospital pricing, says Stovall. For Neldon, the new law means “some light” at the end of the health insurance tunnel.
Loony bin turned luxury inn The place once known as the Western State Lunatic Asylum before it became a medium security prison in 1981 and was abandoned in 2002 opened last week as The Blackburn Inn. “This building has such a storied past,” says Paul Cooper, the president and CEO of Retro Hospitality, the firm that manages the inn. Part-time Richmonder and part-time Staunton resident Robin Miller bought the 80-acre property in 2006, and almost immediately turned its abandoned bindery into an apartment complex. The Blackburn Inn sits in Western State’s former administrative building, where original skeleton keyholes still puncture the doors. Designed in 1828 by Thomas Blackburn, a master builder and protégé of Thomas Jefferson, the inn showcases Western State’s original heart pine floors, whitewashed wood trim, red brick and classical moldings. Sunlight from its many windows floods the wide-arched hallways and vaulted ceilings. It’s in one of those hallways where Cooper bumps into a guest. “Sometimes these old buildings can feel kind of cavernous and not so friendly, but you guys made it feel good,” Arlington resident Rick Hodges tells him. “It feels very luxurious and modern, but you preserved the charm.” But its original uses weren’t entirely charming, and Cooper admits that the “direction of care changed,” at

A
year ago, Jane Neldon thought she was doing well enough as a massage therapist to start working on her own. Then she saw her health insurance premium spike from $280 a month to more than $700. “My health insurance costs more than the rent for my office,” she says. “In a year that I thought I’d finally be making strides, I was knocked back down.” Emily Bardeen retired two years ago at 62 years old and in budgeting, she anticipated the $500 a month she was paying for health insurance could double. Instead, she’s paying more than $2,000 a month for coverage with Optima, the only carrier available for individual coverage in Charlottesville. Its rates here for 2018 jumped 300 percent, the highest in the country. “It’s crushing as a retired person,” she says. “I pay $2,336 for the right to have a $4,600 deductible on my silver plan.” When she spoke with C-VILLE, Bardeen had just gotten home from the hospital. “I knew going to the hospital was going to cost me $4,600,” she says. “I nearly didn’t go, but I really needed to.” Neldon and Bardeen are two of the many locals who were gobsmacked by the rates Optima offered here. And they’ve joined Charlottesville for Reasonable Health Insurance, an 810-member group that doesn’t believe Optima’s rates are justified.
Sara Stovall, one of the group’s organizers, raised an outcry last year when she found out insurance for her family of four would cost nearly $3,000 a month. The group filed a complaint May 30 with the State Corporation Commission about the Bureau of Insurance, which okayed Optima’s 300 percent premium increase. “We have extremely compelling information that the Bureau of Insurance acted irresponsibly,” says Stovall. Optima’s preliminary rates for 2019 are 30 percent lower than 2018, further proof, she says, that the current rates are “unjustifiable.” The SCC responded that the group’s letter wasn’t enough and it needed an attorney and actuary to file a formal complaint, says Stovall. “They’re sort of circling the wagons,” she says. The group is determined to push the issue and already has an attorney—and Stovall has talked to an actuary. For Neldon, 31, skyrocketing premiums have been “a huge heavy weight on me,” she says. “It’s a factor in every decision I make. Do I go to the doctor or wait it out? That used to be an easy decision for me.” She adds, “It’s a new stress about something I haven’t had before.” “It affects our life in every way,” echoes Bardeen. She and her husband were about $200 above the Affordable Care Act’s cutoff for subsidies. “There’s no sliding scale. You either get help or you don’t.” Bardeen’s husband is eligible for Medicare, but for her health insurance, they’re paying $30,000 a year—twice as much as
The Blackburn Inn, a former lunatic asylum turned prison turned abandoned property turned boutique hotel, officially opened last week. what was a resort-style insane asylum after hospital director Francis T. Stribling, a UVA grad who embraced “moral medicine,” died in 1874. It wasn’t long before Western State became known for its forced sterilizations, elec-
troshock therapy, lobotomies, shackling of patients and affinity for straitjackets. During a recent tour, Cooper set aside a velvet rope on the third floor that is used to block a white spiral staircase. He ascended its 41 steps, pausing briefly in the cupola at the top before opening a glass door and exposing 360-degree views that stretch to historic downtown Staunton, the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind and Mary Baldwin University. Cooper says this same path was taken by the mental patients, and the “serene” view was intended to calm them. Now he shows it off to groups of five or six people at a time, and eventually, he says it would be a nice place to take wedding photos. In fact, now that the 49-room inn with 27 floor plans, luxurious soaking tubs and its own restaurant is open for business, he says the next phase of the project is redeveloping the old chapel across from the inn, where bricks are sagging and windows are tilting from years of neglect. Miller plans to turn it into a space with bridal suites, a banquet hall, spa, bar and restaurant about a year from now. And to all the potential ghost hunters, Cooper reports that the property manager, who’s been there 12 years, has yet to experience any paranormal activity, so while “there’s going to be some fascination with the hospital and jail,” he says, you might as well leave your Ouija board at home.— Samantha Baars

Summer Sale THE ARTFUL LODGER
June 27 – July 3, 2018 c-ville.com
he parents of two young women who were murdered here were among those in the dignitary-filled room June 21 at Charlottesville’s Central Library, where Governor Ralph Northam signed legislation expanding the collection of DNA for misdemeanor crimes that, had it previously been in effect, could have saved UVA student Hannah Graham and Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington. Many there remembered the frantic search for Graham in 2014 as the school year began, and despite hundreds of searchers, it was five weeks before her body was found. Morgan Harrington disappeared in October 2009, while here for a Metallica concert. Her body was found three months later in the same part of Albemarle County as Graham’s, an area known to their killer, Jesse Matthew. Northam’s daughter was at UVA at the same time as Graham. “These tragedies are very difficult,” he said. “We can only imagine.” But, said the governor, “We can make changes.” The legislation was spearheaded by Albemarle Sheriff Chip Harding, who’s long been a proponent of DNA databanks, and who originally prodded the state to fund its database in the ’90s. While everyone convicted of a felony goes into the database, Harding has pushed for collection of DNA for misdemeanor convictions, and says that 70 percent of first-time violent felons had a previous misdemeanor conviction. “Three years ago, [Morgan’s mother] Gil Harrington worked with me and we got nine misdemeanors added, including exposing
yourself, which is what Jesse Matthews Sr. did,” says Harding. Familial DNA would have linked to his son, who was convicted of a brutal 2005 attack in Fairfax, “and Morgan Harrington would never have been killed.” In 2017, the Grahams joined Harding to urge the Virginia Crime Commission to study misdemeanors linked to violent felonies, and it identified seven more. “Of those, we only got funding for two—trespassing and domestic assault,” says Harding. Jesse Matthew was convicted of trespassing in 2010, and had his DNA been collected, “it would have prevented Hannah Graham’s death,” says the sheriff. Brian Moran, Virginia secretary of public safety, noted, “DNA can convict the guilty, and maybe even more importantly, it can exonerate the innocent.” The governor also signed a bill that requires fingerprints for those arrested for trespassing and disorderly conduct. Northam called the bipartisan legislation an example of the Virginia way: “The Virginia way is working together.” House Democratic Leader David Toscano carried the bills, which got support from Republican Delegate Rob Bell, who was present and who chairs the Courts of Justice committee. Republican state Senator Mark Obenshain carried a similar version in the Senate. John and Sue Graham came to Richmond “again and again,” said Toscano. After the signing, Sue Graham said, “What happened to Hannah won’t happen to another young woman in the same way.” “It’s been a long time coming,” said Harrington, who founded Help Save the Next Girl. “So many points along the way, this legislation would have stopped Jesse Matthew. It’s too late for Morgan.”

OFF THE POWER GRID What a difference a year makes. Charlottesville underwent a seismic shift shortly after we published last summer’s list of local power brokers, which is always an exercise in subjectivity anyway. Some of them have undergone dramatic reversals, new faces have appeared—and yet, much stays the same. But who wants to read about Coran Capshaw and UVA every year? To change it up, we divided this year’s list into four categories that most impact our day-to-day lives: business and development, culture, government and activism after August 12.

We can think of few local teens who’ve evoked so much change over the past couple of years—and she’s still got her senior year at Charlottesville High to go. Bryant is the young woman who questioned the city’s honoring of Confederate generals who fought to keep her ancestors enslaved, and started a petition for the removal of the Confederate statues in March 2016—when she was a 15-year-old freshman. She’s been interviewed by Katie Couric, Vice, and she occasionally turns up on CNN. Did we mention she’s still in high school?

THE POWER ISSUE: AUGUST 12 ACTIVISM Rising action It’s not like there’s ever been a lack of activism here, but since the 2016 election, demonstrations have SURJed, to pardon our pun on Showing Up for Racial Justice. Local activists include antifascists, Black Lives Matter, Indivisible Charlottesville and the Public Housing Association of Residents, to name a few of the many groups that have sprung up. And then there’s the umbrella Cville Solidarity, aka Solidarity Cville. While there’s overlap, the more anarchist elements have disrupted and/or shut down City Council, and when Unite the Right organizer Jason Kessler is spotted, they can mobilize on a dime.
Jalane Schmidt
EZE AMOS
The UVA associate professor’s religious studies background gives her the tenure and balance to call out Charlottesville’s self-satisfied image of itself as a liberal, world-class city. Charlottesville has lots of activists, but unlike many, Schmidt brings knowledge and research to her efforts. A regular at City Council, the Black Lives Matter organizer proposed that March 3—the day the Union Army arrived—should be recognized as Liberation Day in acknowledgment that 52 percent of the population here was enslaved at the time of the Civil War. She’s pushed council to recontextualize the controversial Confederate monuments and challenge the Lost Cause narrative. She brought the Albemarle Charlottesville Historical Society’s Ku Klux Klan robes out of the closet. And along with Andrea Douglas, she’s organized a pilgrimage to the Equal Justice Initiative’s lynching memorial in Montgomery, Alabama, so that ignorance of the past will no longer be an excuse.

UVA’s first female dean of its School of Law already was a legal rock star before President Teresa Sullivan asked her to head the Deans Working Group after a bunch of torchcarrying neo-Nazis and white supremacists marched through Virginia’s flagship university. Goluboff led the mission to assess the university’s response to hate’s romp through Grounds and to maintain academic freedom, inclusion and tolerance—while keeping a safe space for a rattled community. And in her own law school, Goluboff had to deal with unwelcome visitor Jason Kessler, an arrested Kessler protester and closing the library to outsiders during the end-of-school exam period. C-VILLE put her in the activism category, but in reality, Goluboff is just doing her job.

Charlottesville’s civil rights legal gadfly has no problem filing a lawsuit when he sees injustice. He’s sued Charlottesville police to release stop-and-frisk narratives (he lost), an Albemarle cop who’s stopped an inordinate number of black motorists (on appeal) and has represented activists Veronica Fitzhugh in her confrontations with Jason Kessler, Morgan Hopkins for pulling off her shirt August 12 and Mayor Nikuyah Walker for a speeding ticket appeal. Fogel frequently interjects himself into City Council meetings and even the hiring announcement for new city police Chief RaShall Brackney. And if his interactions with city officials aren’t always the most congenial, well, maybe it’s because he’s always suing the city.

Toscano briefly retired as House minority leader in 2015, only to be wooed back within 24 hours by his caucus, in time to see 2017’s blue wave that nearly made him House speaker. Toscano has represented Charlottesville and parts of Albemarle since the venerated Mitch van Yahres did not seek re-election to his 57th District seat in 2005. Most of the time, Toscano has been in a crushing 66-34 minority, but now that the Dems are 49-51, he’s using the title House Democratic leader and 2019 will determine whether he becomes the most powerful man in the House of Delegates.

Judges Bob Downer and Rick Moore
Judge Bob Downer
facebook.com/cville.weekly
The Albemarle Board of Supervisors usually is a more staid group than Charlottesville City Council, aside from the occasional sexual batterer like Chris Dumler. Following his election in 2015 as the Scottsville District’s supervisor, Randolph led the charge to study moving the county’s courts from the city to the county, and dared try to leverage the county’s worst deal ever—the 1982 revenue sharing agreement—to keep the courts downtown. For his trouble, Delegate Rob Bell got a bill passed that forbids moving courts without a referendum.
TRISTAN WILLIAMS
Rick Randolph
City court dockets have seemed even busier in the past year, and pretty much every charge stemming from the KKK rally July 8 and Unite the Right rally August 12 has gone through Judge Bob Downer’s Charlottesville General District Court, while every lawsuit filed about statues and every August 12 felony certified by the grand jury ends up in Judge Rick Moore’s Charlottesville Circuit Court. Downer has presided over general district court since around 2001, and everyone from speeders to murderers appear before him. Assorted activists have shown up outside his courtroom since August 12, but he tolerates no protest inside. And it’s not like the latest batch is his first rodeo. Remember Code Pink? Downer convicts lawbreakers whether they’re white nationalists or anti-racists with a courtroom demeanor that’s both concerned and stern. Moore is the guy who will decide whether City Council overstepped its authority with its vote to remove Confederate statues, as well as the lawsuits filed to keep violent interlopers from returning to a Unite the Right Judge anniversary. He’s also presided over two jury trials of Rick Moore out-of-state men who were convicted of beating DeAndre Harris. In the courtroom, Moore is genial and thorough, typically pondering his decisions post-hearing rather than ruling from the bench.

Walker became the city’s first independent councilor since 1948. Running on a platform of “unmasking the reality,” Walker has broken a number of barriers as the city’s first black female mayor—who also is a city parks & rec employee. She doesn’t think it’s necessary to make nice with her fellow councilors, particularly Mike Signer, whom she frequently denounced when she was on the other side of the dais, or to talk to the press or follow council tradition, such as choosing the mayor behind closed doors. She’s taken to Facebook Live to call out city employees, like now retired Deputy Chief Gary “The Gasman Unpleasants.” Since Walker has been mayor, there have been fewer shutdowns of council, but she’s had to balance giving voice to her supporters, who tend to disregard Robert’s Rules of Order, and run a public meeting and conduct city business. And she’s found herself on the losing end of 4-1 votes, such as West2nd’s special use permit.

Looking for a Home Equity Line of Credit? Let us take care of the closing costs.**
Call 800.296.6246, visit cffc.com, or come meet with one of our bankers and we will build a plan that is right for you. *The introductory APR (Annual Percentage Rate) will be effective for the first twelve (12) months after your account is opened and normal credit underwriting determines this special rate. After the first twelve months, your standard APR could range from Prime (currently 4.75%) to Prime + 2.50% (currently 7.25%) based on your line amount, combined loan-to-value (CLTV) and other factors. Prime rate as of 5/23/18 was 4.75% as indexed in the Wall Street Journal. ** C&F Bank will pay the following closing costs: Tax Tracking fee, Credit Report cost, Appraisal fee, Lender’s Title Insurance Policy, Deed of Trust recording cost, Settlement fee, and Flood Determination fee. APR is based on the assumption that the finance charge may include these closing costs. Closing cost reimbursement is required if line is closed within the first three years. This promotion does not apply to home equity lines of credit used to purchase a dwelling or when a change of ownership is made at loan closing. Interest on your home equity line of credit may be tax deductible, consult a tax advisor regarding deductibility of interest. An increased line amount of $25,000.00 is required for refinancing an existing C&F Bank debt. Maximum loan amount of $200,000. This loan offer is subject to change without notice and is subject to credit approval. Homeowners insurance is required. Other terms and rates are available.

“We build stuff ” is its motto—a modest take on what the $40 million construction company has been up to for nearly 40 years. With President Jack Horn at the helm since 2001, Martin Horn has had a hand in projects pretty much everywhere you look, and the ones we’re most interested in right now include the long-awaited skate park at McIntire Park, the C&O Row brownstones on Water Street that look more at home in a big city and Prime 109, the new steakhouse where the guys who brought us Lampo will be flipping filets in the old Bank of America building a couple doors down from C-VILLE’s Downtown Mall office. Another sweet spot? Horn works closely with the Building Goodness Foundation, a local nonprofit that connects people from the design and construction industries with vulnerable communities.

Coran Capshaw It wouldn’t be the Power Issue without mention of the man who built it all—or at least a whole lot of it. As co-owner of Riverbend Development, Capshaw’s also behind several recently proposed projects, including building the Belmont Apartments and the new Apex Clean Energy headquarters on Garrett Street. He also recently built 5th Street Station, the massive shopping center anchored by Wegmans. A frequenter of Billboard’s Power 100, the founder of Musictoday and Red Light Management moved up two spots this year, from 11th place in 2017 to number nine. Since he made our list last summer, we’ve seen several of his acts in town, including Dave Matthews Band, Chris Stapleton, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes, Luke Bryan and Odesza, the first three of which performed at the Concert for Charlottesville, a free unity show Capshaw helped organize in the wake of August 12.

Woodriff, the co-founder of financial planning firm Quantitative Investment Management and an angel investor, has also doled out dollars for at least 40 local startups over the past decade.

What started as a company with fewer than 10 employees has grown to employ 220 in nine years, with 170 local staffers currently spread out among three offices in town. The company, headed by CEO and founder Sandy Reisky, has created $4 billion in clean energy opportunities and is now building a new seven-story, 130,000-square-foot headquarters on Garrett Street so its Charlottesville staff can all be under the same roof as they continue to clock hours replacing old, dirty energy practices with new wind and solar ones across the continent.

At the hospital that saw about 975,000 patients last fiscal year, beds won’t line the halls of the emergency department for much longer. In the biggest facelift the health system has ever undergone, the $400 million, 520,000-square-foot expansion and renovation of the emergency department and operating rooms on West Main Street, among other projects, is underway and scheduled for completion in 2020. Since our last Power Issue, we’ve said hello to President Jim Ryan as incoming president at the university, and we’re looking forward to seeing how he fares after the tumultuous tenure of Teresa Sullivan. If one thing’s for sure, without the university and its hospital, Charlottesville wouldn’t be nearly as smart, healthy, employed or populated.

THE POWER ISSUE:
CULTURE
Three Notch’d Brewing Company Charlottesville loves its craft beer, and Three Notch’d Brewing Company is a local favorite. Boasting locations in Harrisonburg, Richmond and, most recently, opening the largest restaurant in the city, this brewing facility hasn’t forgotten its humble Grady Avenue roots (a spot now focused on sour beers) or its original mission statement—to respect the “inalienable rights of man,” presumably referring to humankind’s right to kick back after a long day with a pint of locally crafted beer. And thanks to its new 15,000-square-foot, 30,000-barrel-per-year flagship location at IX Art Park, the Three Notch’d team is giving Charlottesville brew-lovers the perfect place to do it.
Paul Beyer
Douglas spends long hours at the Jefferson School African American Heritage Center, where the mission—“to honor and preserve the rich heritage and legacy of the African American community of Charlottesville-Albemarle, Virginia, and to promote a greater appreciation for, and understanding of, the contributions of African Americans and peoples of the diaspora locally, nationally and globally”—is never far from her mind. As executive director of the center, she fulfills these goals in many ways: opening the school’s auditorium to high school rap competitions and talks on race in America, reviving the Charlottesville Players Guild black theater troupe, curating gallery shows that feature the work of contemporary African American artists, and much more. And by doing this, Douglas, one of the city’s most socially conscious arts advocates, makes certain the center—and its mission—remain an integral part of the community.
The Tom Tom Founders Festival gets larger every year, and Beyer, its creator, is the one to thank for it. Since TTFF’s first run in spring 2012, he has cultivated and transformed the event into a twice-a-year occasion, adding the Tomtoberfest music festival in the fall while still assembling an impressive collection of diverse events and keynote speakers in the spring (and the numbers keep climbing: 43,165 people attended this year’s spring event). Beyer has also gained a reputation for taking Tom Tom in unexpected directions—for example, special guest John Cleese of Monty Python fame recently infused his dry wit into a serious panel titled “Is There Life After Death?”—and with a new Art Ecosystem track added for 2019, Beyer doesn’t seem to be slowing down.

There’s more to Kielbasa than being the director of the Virginia Film Festival, although he gets top billing for that for good reason. The festival’s 2017 lineup brought the already prestigious event to new heights with special guests Spike Lee, William H. Macy and Margot Lee Shetterly, plus the ever-relevant film series “Race in America.” Kielbasa is also UVA’s vice provost for the arts, a year-round job that entails planning and fundraising. Not only was he instrumental in bringing Tina Fey and Bryan Cranston to town, he and his staff put together the historic interactive stage celebration that launched UVA’s bicentennial with appearances by Hamilton star Leslie Odom Jr. and R&B powerhouse Andra Day.

With Coran Capshaw’s Red Light Management and Starr Hill Presents responsible for so many locally unifying gatherings—from Fridays After Five to A Concert for Charlottesville—it’s natural to wonder who makes the gears turn behind the scenes. Hutto, general manager of the Sprint Pavilion, is a vital member of the RLM/Starr Hill Presents team. Since the Pavilion opened in 2005, he has been involved with nearly every aspect of the venue, from improving the sound quality and updating security to ensuring the happiness of audience members and performers alike. Hutto received the Charlottesville Albemarle Convention & Visitors Bureau’s 2018 Tourism Achievement Award this May, in recognition of his effort to shape the Pavilion into a premier performance space.

The concept was developed while Jordan Hague worked at Dell, Inc., where he learned to identify and distribute commodity products and services more efficiently and effectively to the market at lower prices.
Testimonial: Jordan is a rock star! We met lots of realtors, but Jordan really stood out to us as being the ideal realtor. This was our fourth experience buying or selling a home and Jordan really made it our best experience yet. He is a savvy negotiator who uses just the right amount of charm, intelligence and persistence to make our deal happen. Because of his low 1% commission, we got our house without paying a cent in closing costs. —Brad and Rebecca

SIGNS OF SUMMER While strolling the Downtown Mall this summer, you may encounter an enormous bass drum with “FREE CONCERT TONIGHT” emblazoned across the head. This refers to the Charlottesville Municipal Band, a group whose performances are as impressive and larger-than-life as its advertisement. Now in its 96th season, the band offers widely appealing events, such as the Family Pops Concert. Attendees can expect to hear tunes plucked from movies like Pirates of the Caribbean and Frozen, as well as Looney Tunes tracks. And this concert will be preceded by a musical instrument petting zoo, making the event even more kid-friendly. Free, 7pm. The Paramount Theater, 215 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. 979-1333.
THURSDAY 6/28
N’AWLINS UP NORTH The Soggy Po’ Boys are a lot more appetizing than they sound. The six-man band formed in New Hampshire, but its members are firmly rooted in the ways of NOLA jazz, from vintage outfits to the instruments themselves— among them a piano, two saxophones and a stand-up bass that looks straight out of a 1960s club. The Soggy Po’ Boys will perform twice in one night, with the first show including a brief talk about some of the band’s vital influences. $10-25, 7:30pm. The Bridge PAI, 209 Monticello Rd. 984-5669, and The Whiskey Jar (no cover, 10:30pm), 227 W. Main St., Downtown Mall. 202-1549.
FRIDAY 6/29
RISQUÉ BUSINESS Disco Risqué’s mission? “To take over the world one sweaty, borderline-psychotic-music lover at a time.” Their method? Creating and performing some of the most high-energy, hard-to-categorize music in Charlottesville. Imagine George Clinton on his angriest day, combined with Santana-esque riffs at triple their normal speed, and you can start to appreciate what the group does on epic tracks such as “Wreckfest at Riffany’s” and “Nosebleed Blues.” Free, 5:30pm. Sprint Pavilion, 700 E. Main St., Downtown Mall. 245-4910. PUBLICITY PHOTO

Repetition is essential to indie-rock group The Sea The Sea. Saying its name out loud has the effect of an incantation or a lullaby, similar to the experience of listening to the group’s music. Vocalists Chuck E. Costa and Mira Stanley croon in unison on tracks of love, faith and common threads, while soft chords loop in the background forming peacefully happy music that promises to put you at ease, but not to sleep. $10, 6pm. The Southern Café and Music Hall, 103 S. First St. 977-5590.

Fast forward Punk band The Landlords’ first album gets a slick reissue By Erin O’Hare arts@c-ville.com
I
The Landlords—guitarist Charlie Kramer, singer/screamer John Beers, drummer Tristan Puckett and bassist Colum “Eddie Jetlag” Leckey—play a hardcore show in March 1984 at Muldowney’s Pub on Water Street. MICHAEL BUCK
In 1984-85, members of The Landlords shared a house with fellow punks Baby Opaque. Both bands practiced in the basement, and their next door neighbor would shine a floodlight through the window if the music was too loud, too late. That was the inspiration for the Hey! It’s A Teenage House Party! cover art (above), says The Landlords drummer Tristan Puckett.

n his early teens John Beers was “certain that punk rock sucked.” He’d seen the Ramones on television and thought all their songs sounded the same; and he thought Patti Smith singing, “Jesus died for somebody’s sins but not mine,” was “kind of scary.” Heavy metal was Beers’ thing. But a few years later, he saw Dead Kennedys’ “Kill the Poor” single in a Northern Virginia record store and, amused by the title, “had to buy it and see if it was any good.” It was great. Dead Kennedys led Beers to the Sex Pistols and The Damned, and eventually Minor Threat, Government Issue and The Teen Idles—bands that played the short, simple, anti-establishment songs of punk rock, but faster, harder and more aggressive. Hardcore punk. “I’d found what I had been looking for,” says Beers. Hardcore “spoke to me in a way that heavy metal, with the sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll did not. The rock ‘n’ roll part? Hell, yeah. But everything else? Ehh.” When Beers got to the University of Virginia in 1982, he started writing lyrics. A chance meeting with bassist Colum “Eddie Jetlag” Leckey at WTJU led not just to co-hosting of a hardcore punk radio show, but to a band. Leckey knew a guitarist, Charlie Kramer, and another student, Tristan Puckett, agreed to play with them on one condition: that they play fast. “So we did,” says Beers. In 1984, The Landlords released Hey! It’s A Teenage House Party! on Beers’ Catch Trout imprint, and Sam Richardson, a young punk musician who grew up in Charlottesville and now runs Richmond-based punk label Feel It Records, says it was likely the first local punk album to be pressed on vinyl. The record isn’t just a piece of C’ville music history; it’s crucial to American hardcore punk history, says Richardson, which is why Feel It Records reissued the album on vinyl this month, remastered from the original tapes recorded at Inner Ear Studios and complete with a 12-page booklet, liner notes and a digital download code for 17 bonus tracks. And on June 30, all four members of The Landlords will reunite at Champion Brewing Company, the band’s first gig in more than 30 years. In the mid-1980s, the local punk scene was small; “acoustic guitar crap” ruled most stages, says Beers. (So, not much has changed.) Muldowney’s Pub, a gay bar on Water Street, was the first venue to welcome hardcore, booking Lackey Die (widely regarded as Charlottesville’s first punk band), The Landlords, Beef People and Baby Opaque, as well as regional acts like Scream and Death Piggy (eventually morphed into GWAR).

Sons of Bill releases Oh God Ma’am in wake of setbacks By Shea Gibbs arts@c-ville.com
W
hen Sons of Bill played the Jefferson Theater for Christmas 2017, it was one of only a few times in the last two years that the Americana gurus had held a public concert. But there they were in early April—James, Abe and Sam, the three Wilson brothers who make up the Sons of Bill core—setting up in South Bend, Indiana, to play an intimate acoustic show highlighting the group’s forthcoming record, Oh God Ma’am. What were they doing in a small post-industrial town an hour and half outside Chicago? It turns out Sons of Bill has a rabid following in a pocket of the University of Notre Dame’s mostly Catholic faculty. The brothers were booked by Patrick Deneen, a political science professor and director of the university’s Center for Ethics and Culture. “We find [the band’s] music to be both of the highest intellectual order as well as the most viscerally affecting,” Deneen says. “It’s a band that comes from a place and a tradition, and far from running from those roots, extols and revels in them.” Deneen and his colleagues are an uncanny example of the type of national following—organic, serendipitous, spontaneous— Sons of Bill has been trying to cultivate beyond its regional stronghold for the past half decade. Three and a half years ago, when the band was in the midst of its Love and Logic tour, the brothers’ goals were far-reaching. The group members had run the most extensive national tour of their careers and were set
to go international. They didn’t know what response would be out there, but they wanted to tap into it. “When you’re a grassroots band, you never know if...anyone knows anything about you,” bass player Seth Green said at the time. Turns out the fans were there. Megastardom was not. The tour was successful by most measures, but as Sons of Bill looks to promote Oh God Ma’am, it’s more or less where it’s always been in terms of popularity. “We went so hard and pushed everybody,” guitarist and vocalist James Wilson says. “It all went great, but it’s expensive to be in a band. There’s no easy commercial avenue to success. So afterwards, [some of the] guys had to raise their hands and step away.” The Wilsons know that the difference between being well-liked and being household names can come down to luck. But Sons of Bill also hit some snags. A serious injury to James’ hand slowed things—he cut five tendons, and some doctors said his music career was over. Along with the injury, James says he and his bandmates have faced down some drinking issues since completing their Love and Logic touring. “You start off drinking to party, and then you continue to drink for the anxiety,” he says. “Things sort of spiraled.” Finally, the follow-up album is here, a 10song LP to be released June 29. Love and Logic producer (and former Wilco drummer) Ken Coomer is gone; Oh God Ma’am is self-produced, with assistance from a few indie engineering stars: Phil Ek (Shins, Fleet Foxes) worked with the band in Seattle, Sean Sullivan (Sturgill Simpson) provided producing chops in Nashville, and Peter Katis (The National, Interpol) did the mixing.
“Love and Logic dismantled everything in a great way. This album is more focused and intentional,” James says. “I think it is uniquely us. I don’t think it sounds like anybody.” James admits the result is a more insidethe-box record. It’s sparser, more straightforward and lacks the sonic acrobatics Coomer pushed. Green is no longer with the band, having moved on to spend more time with his family. Joe Dickey joins the Wilsons to play bass and Todd Wellons remains at the drum kit. Another thing that’s still around for this record is SOB’s knack for combining touching confessionals with world-weary human condition observations. “Just a fragile apparition of the person that I once met,” James sings on “Easier.” “Seemed like the world could see the skeleton beneath the skin / Another puritan who never lost the taste for sin.” They’re Abe’s words and ostensibly about a lover, but one can’t help but recognize the Wilson brothers themselves in the characterization. And James says the album is indeed highly personal and introverted. “It scratches the spiritual scabs of the contemporary moment a little,” he says. Sons of Bill launches a somewhat conservative Oh God Ma’am tour on June 22, that includes an August 2 date at the Jefferson, but has more international than domestic shows scheduled for now. James says his ambitions are somewhat conservative this time, as well. “You just continue to survive and make music,” he says. “On the Love and Logic tour, we were playing sold-out shows in London. For a little kid, that would have been the dream happening.” Dreams, it turns out, can change.
Another thing that’s still around for this record is SOB’s knack for combining touching confessionals with world-weary human condition observations.

Dull roar Jurassic’s Fallen Kingdom careens off beaten path By Kristofer Jenson arts@c-ville.com
UNIVERSAL STUDIOS
W
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom starring Bryce Dallas Howard and Chris Pratt is a dud that stands to topple the popular dinosaur franchise.
The part of Jurassic Park’s story that resonated was man’s inability to accept that he ought not play god. Life, ah, finds a way, as it were, and all of the safety precautions in the world won’t save us from the natural order of things. If you treat all of existence as your plaything, it’s going to want to play back in a way you’re not going to like. Fallen Kingdom is about the directionless love story between the leads, answering story questions no one asked and repeating itself ad nauseum. The big deal last time was the
creation of a new species. That’s exactly what happens again. You can’t talk about Jurassic Park without mentioning its revolutionary use of special effects that still look amazing more than two decades later. Astonishingly, as these techniques have become more accessible and presumably more cost-effective, they also look worse and worse with every installment. The first movie bent over backward to make us believe that a dinosaur could look real on film. Fallen Kingdom takes that

trust for granted and throws up any ol’ dingy looking CG monstrosity, which is frankly insulting to the audience’s intelligence. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is a pointless, directionless movie that doesn’t bother to be fun along the way. The dinosaurs went extinct long ago, and we should leave them that way, just as we should leave Jurassic Park’s legacy be.

hy is it that sequels so bent on continuing stories and fleshing out backstories are much more confusing? It’s a curious thing that Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom places such a high premium on plot continuity with little regard for why anyone liked Jurassic Park in the first place. What began as a visually thrilling summer blockbuster with just enough of a brain to merit repeat viewings has become an eyesore made by people who seem to know what smart people sound like but forgot to make the characters recognizable facsimiles of humans before they speak. These are all things one might forgive if the movie was any fun—we’ve run glowing reviews of at least two Fast & Furious movies—but watching Fallen Kingdom is such an unengaging experience, you may as well bring a book and wait for the dinosaur noise to know when to look up. It’s almost impressive that they managed to make a movie this expensive look and feel so cheap. Following the events of Jurassic World, the fate of Isla Nublar and its prehistoric inhabitants is in doubt as a long-dormant volcano threatens to wipe out life on the island. Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) and Owen (Chris Pratt) are reunited by a rich guy to help save the dinos and transport them to a safe haven where they can live in peace. Now with no more information, try to guess where this all goes wrong. The only Jurassic sequel that would make sense is one where the world decides dinosaurs aren’t worth it and everyone stays the hell away. But if they really have to continue this story, the least they could do is make the intrigue a little more intriguing.

“Being bilingual has given me a lifelong shift in perspective. From a young age, I was able to understand that languages can be a powerful and beautiful tool for expressing ourselves and exchanging experiences. Knowing this helped me develop an immense sense of empathy for others and afforded me rare insight into what communication, and connection, really are. My languages, and the experiences abroad that they enabled and enhanced, shaped my sense of self, and equipped me with many other tools with which I was able to experiment as I searched for the answers to life’s vast sea of questions. ISC was the foundation for my lifetime with bilingualism, and planted the seeds that have led to my still continuously renewing sense of self and community” -Isabelle, ISC Class of 2005 and 2018 Camp Counselor University of Edinburgh Class of 2022

KNOWLEDGE is POWER
Open House — July 16 at 10 am. Please RSVP
Who Is Oakland and What Do We Offer: Oakland is a small co-ed boarding and day school that enables bright children ages 6-13, at admission, to reach their academic and personal potential through class sizes with low student-to-teacher ratios and individualized student programs. Oakland specializes in working with children who have language-based learning differences, organizational difficulties, or those who thrive in a personalized academic setting.
Student Experiences: 1- This school is a bright spot in my memories. For once, I was allowed to be me. My teachers were always kind, and I could learn at my pace, as some subjects I was way ahead on, and some behind.
Parent Experiences: 1- We are very proud of our son and his accomplishments. We owe it all to Oakland. If we had not found this special place, I hate to think what would have happened to him. There were days I never though I would see him get his hard earned diploma, but I will see this life event for him on Thursday, and then it’s on to college.
Oakland Experiences:
2- A sweet slice of heaven for out-of-the-box learners. – Facebook User
information@oaklandschool.net
facebook.com/cville.weekly
1- I hadn’t known much about Oakland before my visit, but I was so impressed with everything that I saw. I just fell in love with your school! It was really invaluable to beable to visit to see for myself how much you have to offer. – Education & Youth Officer
@artscville
2- We call it “Oakland magic.” You can see it on the face of a student when he (or she) first realizes that this might be the place that finally helps him (her) overcome all the challenges he (she) faced in school.
Juney 27 – July 3, 2018 c-ville.com
2- When I first came to Oakland I was
placed in classes that matched my abilities to the difficulty of the class in each individual subject. The small class sizes and one to one attention from compassionate educations gave me the skills I needed to achieve success I would have otherwise never achieved.

Tall order Order Up! fills mobile lunch spot on the Downtown Mall By Erin O’Hare and Sam Padgett eatdrink@c-ville.com

Eater’s digest
reopen in the fall. And don’t worry: You can still get your soup fix at its location on Second Street SW, off the Downtown Mall. Sugar Shack on West Main Street is set to open any day now. The donut bakery has been keeping us posted on its progress via Twitter (@cvilledonuts), and word is that its “open” sign will be turned on sometime this week, followed by that of its partner restaurant, Luther Burger, in the coming weeks. So keep your eyes peeled to this spot for updates. Tiger Fuel Co. recently bought the Shell station on Preston Avenue and plans to transform the place into the sort of fancy market deli the company is known for (Ti-
ger Fuel also owns Bellair Market and the Market at Mill Creek). For those who fear that the station’s fried chicken program will go away, a representative for the company says the fried chicken will remain, but we’ll believe it when we eat it for ourselves. At 7pm on Friday, June 29, Mudhouse Coffee Roasters will host a latte art throwdown at its Downtown Mall location. There’s a $5 buy-in for latte artists hoping to win the $50 cash prize, and money raised from a raffle (among the prizes is a primo burr coffee grinder) will benefit victims of the June 3 eruption of Guatemala’s Volcán de Fuego.
Dennis Horton, founder of Horton Vineyards and a visionary who introduced a generation of winemakers to now-iconic Virginia wines made from Viognier, Norton, Rkatsiteli, Tannat grapes and more, died June 19 at age 73. In a 2016 C-VILLE article, Horton referenced his “willingness to confront the unknown,” and area winemakers applauded Horton’s experimental ethos. “The first Viognier that Dennis put in the ground was fantastic,” says winemaking consultant Brad McCarthy, who worked with Horton in the 1990s. “We hadn’t really experienced anything like this—nobody around here had. Back in the 1990s, there wasn’t much Viognier in the world. At the end of the day the tanks du jour that were spectacular—they were Viognier.” But it wasn’t just Viognier: He also brought in Tannat and Norton, a grape native to Virginia that no longer grew here when Horton began making wine. He brought it back to Virginia from his home state of Missouri. “There are whole wineries based on growing Norton now, thanks to Dennis Horton,” McCarthy says.—Erin Scala Read more about Horton’s legacy and contribution to Virginia wine online at c-ville.com.

Virginia wine pioneer leaves a legacy
June 27 – July 3, 2018 c-ville.com
ood cart Order Up!—not to be confused with Grubhub’s predecessor, OrderUp—recently set up shop in the former Catch the Chef spot on the Downtown Mall at the Third Street SE intersection, next to Virginia National Bank. Owners Max and Troy Robinson, who have operated the food cart for a few years, were based out of their home turf in Greene County before deciding to plant themselves in the middle of downtown Charlottesville foot traffic. The inspiration for Order Up! came during Max’s time working for the Charlottesville Redevelopment and Housing Authority, when she struck up a friendship with Catch the Chef ’s owner, Tyler Berry. After that, she was motivated to start her own mobile food service. Order Up! chiefly serves a variety of typical grill foods like burgers, hot dogs, chili, etc., but the cart offers something unique to go alongside the classics: mambo sauce. When asked to describe the taste of mambo sauce, Max says it’s a “sweet sauce but with hint of spice.” While Troy admits he doesn’t know what’s in it, he says it tastes like “heaven,” and that even though it’s made for chicken, it can go on anything. So far, Order Up! has provided catering for several events throughout the surrounding area, and it can be found on the mall from 10am to 3pm Monday through Friday.

LIVING FREE WILL ASTROLOGY LIVING FREE WILL ASTROLOGY
By Rob Brezsny
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): It’s not so bad to temporarily lose your bearings. What’s bad is not capitalizing on the disruption that caused you to lose your bearings. So I propose that you regard the fresh commotion as a blessing. Use it as motivation to initiate radical changes. For example, escape the illusions and deceptions that caused you to lose your bearings. Explore unruly emotions that may be at the root of the superpowers you will fully develop in the future. Transform yourself into a brave self-healer who is newly receptive to a host of medicinal clues that were not previously accessible.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Here’s my list of demands: 1. Avoid hanging out with people who are unreceptive to your influence. 2. Avoid hanging out with people whose influence on you is mediocre or dispiriting. 3. Hang out with people who are receptive to your influence and whose influence on you is healthy and stimulating. 4. Influence the hell out of the people who are receptive to your influence. Be a generous catalyst for them. Nudge them to surpass the limits they would benefit from surpassing. 5. Allow yourself to be deeply moved by people whose influence on you is healthy and stimulating.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “If I didn’t define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people’s fantasies for me and eaten alive.” Activist author Audre Lorde said that, and now, in accordance with your current astrological and psychological needs, I’m offering it to you. I realize it’s a flamboyant, even extreme, declaration, but in my opinion, that’s what is most likely to motivate you to do the right thing. Here’s another splashy prompt, courtesy of philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre: “We only become what we are by the radical and deep-seated refusal of that which others have made us.”
Scorpio
Cancer (June 21-July 22): In the coming weeks, you will have an excellent chance to dramatically decrease your wimp quotient. As the perilously passive parts of your niceness toughen up, I bet you will encounter brisk possibilities that were previously off-limits or invisible to you. To ensure you remain in top shape for this delightful development, I think you should avoid entertainment that stimulates fear and pessimism. Instead of watching the latest flurry of demoralizing stories on Netflix, spend quality time summoning memories of the times in your life when you were unbeatable. For extra credit, pump your fist 10 times each day as you growl, “Victory is mine!”
your current astrological indicators, Scorpio, I suspect you may be ready for a binge like that. Just kidding! I sincerely hope you won’t indulge in such wasteful forms of “pleasure.” The coming days should be a time when you engage in a focused pursuit of uplifting and healthy modes of bliss. The point is to seek gusto and amusement that enhance your body, mind and soul.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): On her 90th birthday, my great-aunt Zosia told me, “The best gift you can give your ego is to make it see it’s both totally insignificant and totally important in the cosmic scheme of things.” Jenna, my girlfriend when I was 19, was perhaps touting a similar principle when, after teasing and tormenting me for two hours, she scrawled on my bathroom mirror in lipstick, “Sometimes you enjoy life better if you don’t understand it.” Then there’s my zen punk friend Arturo, who says that life’s goodies are more likely to flow your way if you “hope for nothing and are open to everything.” According to my analysis of the astrological rhythms, these messages will help you make the most of the bewildering but succulent opportunities that are now arriving in your vicinity.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In accordance with the astrological beacons, I have selected two pieces of advice to serve as your guiding meditations during the next seven weeks. You might want to write them on a piece of paper that you will carry in your wallet or pocket. Here’s the first, from businessman Alan Cohen: “Only those who ask for more can get more, and only those who know there is more, ask.” Here’s the second, from writer G. K. Chesterton: “We need to be
happy in this wonderland without once being merely comfortable.”
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Ecologists in Mexico City investigated why certain sparrows and finches use humans’ discarded cigarette butts in building their nests. They found that cellulose acetate, a chemical in the butts, protects the nests by repelling parasitic mites. Is there a metaphorical lesson you might draw from the birds’ ingenious adaptation, Aquarius? Could you find good use for what might seem to be dross or debris? My analysis of the astrological omens says that this possibility is worth meditating on.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): I suspect that sometime soon you will come into possession of an enchanted potion or pixie dust or a pouch full of magic beans—or the equivalent. If and when that occurs, consider the following protocols: 1. Before you use your new treasure, say a prayer to your higher self, requesting that you will be guided to use it in such a way as to make yourself wiser and kinder. 2. When you use it, be sure it harms no one. 3. Express gratitude for it before and during and after using it. 4. Use it in such a way that it benefits at least one other person or creature in addition to you. 5. See if you can use it to generate the arrival of more pixie dust or magical beans or enchanted potion in the future. 6. When you use it, focus on wielding it to get exactly what you want, not what you sort of want or temporarily want.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Your best ideas and soundest decisions will materialize as if by magic while you’re lounging around doing nothing in a worry-free environment. So
please make sure you have an abundance of relaxed slack and unhurried grace. Treat yourself to record-setting levels of comfort and self-care. Do whatever’s necessary for you to feel as safe as you have ever felt. I realize these prescriptions might ostensibly clash with your fiery Aries nature. But if you meditate on them for even two minutes, I bet you’ll agree they’re exquisitely appropriate for you right now.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): “It is always what is under pressure in us, especially under pressure of concealment—that explodes in poetry.” Taurus poet Adrienne Rich wrote that in an essay about the poet Emily Dickinson. She was describing the process of tapping into potent but buried feelings so as to create beautiful works of literature. I’m hoping to persuade you to take a comparable approach: to give voice to what’s under pressure inside you, but in a graceful and constructive way that has positive results.
Gemini (May 21-June 20): Introductory offers are expiring. The bracing thrills of novelty must ripen into the cool enjoyments of maturity. It’s time to finish the dress rehearsals so the actual show can begin. You’ve got to start turning big, bright fantasies into crisp, nononsense realities. In light of these shifting conditions, I suspect you can no longer use your good intentions as leverage, but must deliver more tangible signs of commitment. Please don’t take this as a criticism, but the cosmic machinery in your vicinity needs some actual oil, not just your witty stories about the oil and the cosmic machinery.

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): André René Roussimoff, also known as André the Giant, was a French actor and professional wrestler. He was 7 feet, 4 inches tall and weighed 520 pounds. As you might imagine, he ate and drank extravagantly. On one festive occasion, he quaffed 119 bottles of beer in six hours. Judging from

Q&A Who should have more power locally?
Citizens and activists.
Historically disenfranchised communities need to have equal power to the oppressors in our town before we start talking about who should wield “more power.” But, taking the question more seriously, I’d say that we focus too much on appeasing bourgeois developers who only perpetuate our problem with gentrification and that working class members of marginalized communities need to be listened to and taken seriously for once.
JASON PETERSON/FACEBOOK
Power is a bad thing. It corrupts. The Nietzschean will-topower is evident everywhere you look these days. The question shouldn’t be who needs more power, but how can there be less power exercised by all. @EKKNAPPENBERGER/TWITTER
The voters would have the power...if they would vote.
REAUX PINES/FACEBOOK
I think our elected representatives should have the most power because they’re the people who speak for their constituency, and they should be beholden to the people they represent, not private interests that are looking for economic gains.
