City Administrator Mark Krey to resign at year’s end By Natalie Gentry Springtown City Administrator Mark Krey tendered his resignation at the Sept. 25 city council meeting. Krey closed the meeting by providing Mayor Doug Hughes and each council member with a copy of the letter stating that his last day as a city employee will be Dec. 31. “It has been a challenging and rewarding time, however the end of my tenure in this position is rapidly approaching,” Krey wrote. “The Lord has been very generous with his blessing of LuAnn and me and as a result it is time for me to return to a field that I truly love as well as slowing down a bit. “This is not a decision I’ve made lightly,” Krey told the council. “It is

something my wife and I have been considering for the last year or so.” Krey informed the council that he will begin a career in private investigation. This transition will take him back to solving crimes as he did during his time in law enforcement. “Having three 30-year-old cases in Fort Worth solved recently has re-inspired me in that direction,” Krey said. Although I’ll be on the dark side this time. “My family and I love and appreciate this community and the people who make it what it is.” he wrote in his letter. “We have had and look forward to having many, many more wonderful times and life events here.” Krey’s time with the city is one of

progress and growth. Among the many projects Krey has coordinated are the completion of the new water treatment plant, the reconstruction and resurfacing of approximately half of the existing streets in the town, the completion of the Veteran’s Memorial Park, the creation of the Tabernacle Committee and phase one of the renovations to this key community asset, the construction of the SplashPad, and the completion of the new Parker County court annex building. From infrastructure to commerce to recreation, Krey has had a hand in the evolution of Springtown over the last seven years. Mayor Hughes spoke for the council as he responded to Krey’s announce-

eryone on the council will miss [him]. And we thank him for all of his work. “The time he has been here has been wonderful and these are going to be some big shoes to fill.”

Springtown ISD hosting local band competition Eight high schools coming here Oct. 4

The Sound of Springtown will host its first-ever band competition Oct. 4 at Porcupine Stadium. Photo by Mark K. Campbell

by mark k. campbell The First Annual Sound of Springtown Marching Showcase kicks off at 1:25 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 4 at Porcupine Stadium. J.B. Perry, Springtown ISD director of fine arts/ UIL, told the Optimist Club that he hopes this gathering of eight schools will be the first of many competitions SHS will host. “Hopefully, it will begin a tradition,” Perry said. “We’re off to a good start.” The eight bands that will perform their UIL state programs include Glen Rose (which will begin the competition), Godley, Alvarado, Stephenville, Castleberry, Royce City, and Brewer. Perry said each performance will be viewed by a trio of judges. One will come down and give each school a “clinic” for five minutes. “For many bands,” Perry said, “this will be their first performance under pressure of an audience and judges.” Not only will each band receive judges’ critiques, but all will receive a video of their performance and a rating. “The critique is the main thing,” Perry said. Bands will play until 5 p.m. then will return for the finals at 7 p.m. A rating of 1 through 5 will be issued; a 1 is a first division accolade. In the evening competition, the bands will be vying head-to-head in a point system. Perry said the Sound of Springtown Marching Showcase has attracted three quality judges. All have prior UIL experience: Jim McDaniel from Frisco ISD, Jonathan Hooper of Tarleton State University, and Greg McWilliams from Waller High School. “It’s going to be some good entertainment,” Per-

ry said. Because Springtown is the host, the Sound of Springtown will perform but will not be in competition with the other schools. The event is actually “three competitions in one,” Perry said. Aside from the bands, schools’ drumlines will vie at old Porcupine Stadium – playing 10 minute programs – and colorguards will compete at the middle school. The event is a fundraiser for the band program, he said. Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for children. Concessions are also going to the SISD band program. The Sound of Springtown is in a state competition year. SOS will take to the field in Glen Rose the next week before returning to the same venue to attempt to qualify for state. If SOS qualifies with a Division 1 rating, the next stop is the Area round in Cedar Park in the Leander ISD in Central Texas. Perry said 20-24 bands will be in contention there. The top 10 advance to the finals with the best “three or four” moving on to state for the two-day battle in the Alamodome in San Antonio Nov. 3-4. SOS has reached the state level in 2004, 2006, and 2012. “The kids are excited about going back,” Perry said. “They want to keep that record up.” He noted that the group practices hard, meeting at 6:45 a.m. to work. SOS, around 130 members strong, will perform at halftime of this week’s football game against Brownwood, expected to be a large crowd. Perry said the entire SISD band program from grades 6-12 is between 450 and 500 students.

Parker County pair arrested for theft There’s an app for that By Natalie Gentry A Parker County woman and man are facing multiple charges after being arrested Sept. 24 by Parker County Sheriff’s deputies. Mary Daniels and Bowie Farr have been charged with theft of materials/ copper wiring, theft of property, and burglary of a building. Sheriff’s deputies arrested the pair after responding to a call regarding a person with a weapon. A red 2001 Chevrolet Impala was spotted near a barn located in the 1700 block of McVoid Road in Springtown by a person arriving for work at approximately 9:30 a.m. that morning. He told authorities he did not recognize the vehicle. According to the Parker County Sheriff’s Office, when the property owner arrived at the location, he discovered an unknown female squatting behind the barn, while an unknown male attempted to reach the Impala. The property owner reportedly dialed 9-1-1 and held the trespassers at gunpoint until law enforcement arrived.

Bowie Farr

Deputies determined that Daniels and Farr were in the process of stealing approximately $2,000 worth of property, including a fence charger, propane regulator, trailer ramp, metal pipe, and roughly 300 feet of copper wire. When questioned by deputies, Farr said he had permission to be on the

property and to retrieve the materials. Deputies were able to quickly discredit the statement. It was later discovered that both Farr and Daniels had entered the home and taken copper. Additional charges of burglary of a habitation – a second degree felony – were filed against both suspects.

by Natalie Gentry It’s going to get a little more difficult for Springtown students to hide bad grades from their parents, because Springtown Independent School District (SISD) launched its new and free app at the beginning of the school year. Before the app, some components of students’ profiles have been available online for parents’ viewing through systems such as Skyward and My School Bucks; and the app isn’t meant to replace these components. The app is designed to put a large amount of information at parents’ fingertips, including student’s grades, cafeteria account balances, and more. The app also reads news shared on SISD’s Facebook pages and RSS feeds. It’s an information hub for all those invested in Springtown’s schools. Numerous schools and districts throughout the country are beginning to offer similar apps as a way of connecting parents to schools. Sections in the app include: news, sports, calendar, notifications, Facebook, Twitter, superintendent, directory, settings, Skyward, and My School Bucks.

The smartphone app is available for both Android and iPhone platforms and is customizable to each student. Parents and guardians are given individual login identifications and passwords and can opt to receive news and notifications from the schools their children attend. The service is free for download.

Springtown ISD now offers a free app to help parents and community members keep connected to school news. The app is available for both iPhone and Android operating systems.

SISD issues fundraising fraud warning by Natalie Gentry The Springtown Independent School District (SISD) is warning about possible fraud targeting local businesses. The district has received information from several local businesses about companies claiming to be working with the district’s athletic department. The companies “Promotional Specialties” and “Spirit Stop” claim that they are securing business advertisements as a fundraiser for the district. They specifically mention sponsorships to be displayed on an SISD t-shirt that will be thrown to crowds by cheerleaders at

upcoming athletic events. The district doesn’t have any agreement or arrangement with these companies and has not requested these services. The only company that has the authority to promote the district is Five Star Sports. They received approval to solicit sponsors for the fall and spring sports schedule posters. According to the district’s website site, any other company claiming such a privilege should be reported. If in doubt at all about a sponsorship request contact SISD at 817220-1700 or the Springtown Chamber of Commerce at 817-220-7872.

Ladies roar out 2-0 as district starts by mark k. campbell Coach Leighann Strickland spent the long non-district volleyball slate getting her charges ready for district. With some tough matches along the way, Springtown (1714, 2-0) reached 8-4A play just above .500 ball. But that long road paid off. SHS flattened its first two foes in district play. The Lady Porcupines hosted Castleberry Sept. 25 in the first 8-4A match. Springtown dominated, winning 25-13, 25-17, 25-14. “Starting district off with a win is great,” Coach Strickland said. “We played well but had a hard time truly pushing the speed of our game.” Kendyl Dean’s 21 digs led with way while three other SHS athletes reached double digits: Brooklyn Dauenhauer with 11 and, with 10 each, Mackensie Martin and Kaitlyn Hill. Dauenhauer’s 11 kills was tops; she also had 11 assists. Sydney Farris paced the team with 14 assists.

The first road game sent the Lady Porcupines to Bridgeport where, despite a “slower start,” the coach said, Springtown won 25-23, 25-17, 25-19. “When we connected with our setters, it was nice, but we struggled at times to make that connection,” Strickland recalled. Dauenhauer with 14 and Ashton Weaver with 10 kills were tops. SHS piled up 73 kills, led by 23 from Dean. Martin served 5 aces to go Leaping high to block a foe’s hit are Lady Porcupines Brittany Stroud (7) and Abbi Hatton. Springtown blew out Castleberry and Bridgeport to begin District 8-4A play.

Springtown rallies past Vernon, 33-26 by mark k. campbell After such a long trip, a Pick Six seemed a terrible way to stop Springtown (3-1) from winning up in Vernon. But the Porcupines gutted it out and rallied for a 33-26 victory with two fourth quarter touchdowns. The Vernon defense scored twice, bookending the Lion total. In the first quarter, a Springtown fumble was returned 41 yards for a score. SHS answered with an impressive 12-play, 91-yard drive that ate up a whopping 8 minutes 34 seconds. The Porcupines trailed 7-6 then 14-6 at halftime. But Springtown got two third quarter scores – on runs by QB Kaleb Chesney and running back Ryan Snow – and when the final period arrived, the Porcupines led 20-14. Then came a wild 25-point fourth quarter. First, Vernon put up two scores, the second on a 65-yard interception return. With 8:47 left in the game, Springtown head coach Brian Hulett rallies the troops. It worked in Vernon where the Porcupines overcame a the Porcupines suddenly trailed fourth quarter defensive score by the Lions and rallied to win. Photo by Mark K. Campbell 26-20.

Then came the late-game heroics. Chesney found Dillion Springfield for a 69-yard TD that rocked the Lions. Mateo Herrera’s successful PAT put SHS ahead. A later TD pass from Chesney to Herrera locked the game down. The Porcupine defense shone, allowing Vernon just 10 first downs and 239 total yards. Meanwhile, Springtown threw for 302 with the reliable Springfield catching 10 aerials tallying 155 yards. Mykeal Cummings added 5 for 57. Ryan Snow ran for 95 yards in the Lions’ den.

JV, 9th VB girls get wins District play began for the subvarsity volleyball squads. And the junior varsity also played in a tournament. The JV slugged it out with Castleberry Sept. 26, finally winning 25-15, 20-25, 25-17. “That was a great way to start district,” coach Hannah Adams said. Three Lady Porcupines killed 6 balls each: Jazz Mannin, Taylor Keith, and Jordan Babcock. Mannin and Raynee Henderson got 11 assists each while

Karrah Cooper dug out a whopping 27 balls. “We played hard and had some great hits,” Adams said. The next day, Saturday, Sept. 27, the SHS JV headed to Saginaw to play in a tourney. Springtown opened with Stephenville and lost 21-25, 22-25. Cooper (16 digs), Brooklyn Pierce (4 kills), and Keith (3 aces) led SHS. In a 2-1 loss to LD Bell, Cooper got 18 digs and 2 aces. Against Liberty Christian,

Ashley Witt led with 4 kills. SHS finished 8th out of 25 teams, Watson said. The 9th (14-5, 1-0) swept Castleberry 25-6, 25-23 in the 8-4A opener. Top players named by Coach Mallory Daniel were Karlee Eddy (13 assists, 3 kills); Hannah Downes (7 digs, 3 kills); Haylee Klein (7 digs); and Adeli Gonzales (3 aces). Daniel said, “We played well and I’m so happy to start district with a win.”

Daniels tops in FB contest In the weekly football contest, only one entrant missed a single game. That made Wade Daniels $20 richer. He was off only on the Dallas win over New Or-

leans. Three prognosticators were off on two games, so the tiebreaker of Texas A&M 35, Arkansas 28 (63) decided winners.

Peyton Yates also killed 4 balls while Charisma Jones was the top passer with 7 digs. Coach Ashley Watson said, “Our serving was just on spot and they couldn’t pass our serves. When they did return the ball, we took care of it and played our game.” The 8th B (3-0) drubbed Prairie Vista 25-10, 25-9 Taylor Cox led the B with 15 points (12 in a row once, 4 aces), 4 assists, and 6 digs. Deven Triggs killed 2 balls and solo blocked one. Rachel Hellam served 10 consecutive points. “Again, we served really well and missed very few.

OPINION Thursday, October 2, 2014

Running it up the flagpole and saluting (?) it

nce upon a time, I was a firefighter in Arlington. I played a lot of ping-pong and spades and, oh, yeah, sometimes went into buildings that were 1,500 degrees or so. (I’d like to say I was carrying on a proud family tradition, but I simply answered an ad in the Fort Worth StarTelegram, took the tests, and got hired. Not very romantic. Since it paid more than the truck I was driving – and had benefits! – I entered the fire service.) One day, something horrible happened. One of my rookie school buddies was killed in a training accident, electrocuted when power lines arced over to a ladder he was setting. Aside from all the tumult around the incident, we found out that, among

other things at the funeral, we had to salute. Now, as a former hippie, I knew nothing about saluting. Was there a certain angle for your hand? Did you cock your thumb ON YOUR into your palm? How MARK long did you Mark K. Campbell hold it? I was not alone in being salute stupid. My fellow firefighter classmates included a flight attendant and a mechanic, both also clueless.

A former Army lieutenant who then worked at the fire department stopped by and gave us some lessons. No one wanted to be the guy who screwed up the salute. We did OK, I guess. (Even though in the church I got out of step with the other guys and I’m pretty sure that made Ronny giggle up at the pearly gates.) Recently, the greatest Obama scandal of all-time – “And that’s saying something!” said every talk radio station on earth – occurred when, holding a cup of coffee, he gave a poor salute to a couple of Marines. Clearly, the commander-in-chief was using the “latte salute” as another way of sending secret messages to his Islamic cohorts as they press on toward taking over America.

Many conveniently have forgotten that President George W. Bush once saluted in a weird manner – with a dog. It’s a hilarious picture:

Now, the president does not have to return salutes even though they must be given. In fact, historically, most presidents didn’t return salutes regularly. Reagan brought it back into vogue. If I were president, you’re durn tootin’ I’d salute (now that I [kinda] know how). Every time. It’s a respect thing and no one deserves it more than our armed services personnel. But even the Military Times said to cut the president some slack: “Most troops and veterans, particularly enlisted members, will admit to the occasional sloppy salute.” This is a tempest in a coffee cup.

Clearly Barney the dog is a bit confused. “I’d put up a paw, but George is squishing me.”

Mark K. Campbell is the Epigraph editor and he almost learned to salute earlier because, in 1976, his draft lottery number was 38.

Colonel Travis harangued the garrison, and concluded by exhorting them, in case the enemy should carry the fort, to fight to the last gasp, and render their victory even more serious to them than to us. This was followed by three cheers. March 4. Shells have been falling into the fort like hail during the day, but without effect. About dusk, in the evening, we observed a man running toward the fort pursued by about half a dozen of the Mexican cavalry.

But we did not escape unscathed, for both the pirate and the Bee hunter were mortally wounded, and I received a sabre cut across the forehead. The old man died, without speaking, as soon as we entered the fort. We bore my young friend to his bed, dressed his wounds, and I watched beside him. He lay, without complaint or manifesting pain, until about midnight, when he spoke, and I asked him if he wanted any thing. “Nothing,” he replied, but drew a sigh that seemed to rend his heart, as he added, “Poor Kate of Nacogdoches!” His eyes were filled with tears, as he continued, “Her

Perry helps break ground on outer space project

ov. Rick Perry on Sept. 22 participated in a groundbreaking ceremony for the SpaceX Commercial Launch Facility near Boca Chica Beach, adjacent to Brownsville, which will launch commercial satellites into Earth orbit. Perry said the groundbreaking “is the result of years of cooperation between Texas and SpaceX” and his office’s Texas Enterprise Fund “was instrumental in bringing SpaceX to Texas, with a $2.3 million grant in August that will bring 300 jobs and create $85 million in capital investment in South Texas.” The State of Texas also is offering $13 million from its Spaceport Trust Fund to the Cameron County Spaceport Development Corp.,

Perry said. Elon Musk, SpaceX chief executive and chief designer, said, “With today's groundbreaking at Boca Chica, we will begin an investment in South Texas that will create hundreds of jobs and over time contribute hundreds of millions of dollars into the local economy.” Governor will not appear Visiting state district Judge Bert Richardson on Sept. 26 granted Gov. Perry’s request to be excused from a pretrial hearing scheduled for Oct. 13. Perry was indicted last month by a Travis County grand jury on felony charges of official oppression and abuse of office. The charges stem from the governor’s threat to veto legislation funding the state’s public integrity unit in 2013 unless Travis County District Attorney Rose-

mary Lehmberg resigned, following her arrest for driving while intoxicated. Lehmberg, who heads the unit, refused to resign and Perry vetoed the unit’s funding. Energy report is released State Comptroller Susan Combs on Sept. 23 released a report that she said urges policymakers and elected officials “to discontinue costly subsidies and tax breaks driving development of new electricity generation and allow a more marketdriven approach to providing reliable power to millions of Texas consumers when they need it most.” In the report titled “Texas Power Challenge: Getting the Most From Your Energy Dollars,” Combs also said she “challenges the wind energy industry to ensure taxpayers

and ratepayers are not doubleburdened with infrastructure costs and tax subsidies for power sources that are STATE intermitCAPITAL tent.” HIGHLIGHTS “ I t ’ s time for Ed Sterling wind to s t a n d on its own two feet,” Combs said. “Billions of dollars of tax credits and property tax limitations on new generation helped grow the industry, but today they give it an unfair market advantage over other

power sources.” Searchers work in Brooks The Texas Department of Public Safety and the Texas State Guard announced Sept. 19 they have special search teams to assist the Brooks County Sheriff’s Office with locating and recovering human remains in remote areas north of the Texas-Mexico border. According to the announcement, the majority of the remains are suspected to be those of illegal immigrants who died attempting to avoid detection while entering the United States. The first of these search missions began this week and will continue through the weekend. ‘No Child’ waiver extended Texas Education Commissioner Michael Williams on

Sept. 22 announced the U.S. Department of Education granted his request to extend the state’s conditional waiver from specific provisions of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (commonly known as the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001). The extension will run through the 2014-2015 school year pending approval of the agency’s proposal for new teacher and principal evaluation and support systems in Texas. The systems are a specific component of the federal waiver and are scheduled to be piloted in school districts and charters during the 2014-2015 school year. Veteran state reporter and legislative analyst Ed Sterling is member services director for the Texas Press Association, whose 518 member newspapers have combined circulation of 3.7 million.

Movie Man

Thursday, October 2, 2014

Denzel the Equalizer to a pedestrian script It’s no secret that the Movie Man loves him some Denzel Washington. That’s why it’s a little weird that the Movie Man missed two of Denzel’s biggest movies in theaters. About the film Every week, the Movie Man chooses which film he will see. Sometimes that decision is made without question – when a big movie like the upcoming Interstellar arrives. Other times he changes his mind at the last minute...just because. Then there are the occasional essays about upcoming movies or genre histories, etc. Sometimes, however, it’s not necessarily the movie that draws the Movie Man but something else. Like a director (Steven Spielberg) or an actor (Tom Hanks). It’s that latter area where the Movie Man usually goes out of his way to catch Denzel. The Movie Man has always considered Hanks and Denzel 1A and 1B when it comes to Best American Actor. So the Movie Man sees almost all of the duo’s movies. (He hasn’t missed a Hanks movie – excluding shorts, cameos, and TV appearances – since Philadelphia in 1993 [which also starred Denzel]. That movie came out in January; the Movie Man was not born until that May. [Dave was the first review, a ‘+’ in nonnumbering days, a 7 today].) The Movie Man’s Denzel record is not nearly that encompassing. However, there are two films that the Movie Man really messed up on by missing. One is Malcolm X in 1992. That is one amazing performance and a great movie. Now, Denzel has some really good movies on his resume. The Movie Man enjoyed Fallen (1998, MM #216, 6), especially that groovy ending. Yet, somehow, despite being such a Denzel fan, the Movie

Man also missed Training Day, Denzel’s Oscar winner in 2001. The movie came out Oct. 5 and, for some reason, the Movie Man chose Serendipity (MM #424, 6) then instead of Training Day. (Still, the Movie Man’s biggest miss remains The Sixth Sense; that 1999 film got dissed for the thriller Instinct [MM #290, 6].) But the Movie Man did not miss The Equalizer. The plot (spoilers) Robert (Denzel) is a quiet man who happily toils in a home-improvement warehouse. His past bugs him, keeping him up at night. Denzel wanders down to a cafe where young hooker Teri (Chloe Grace Moretz) longs to break free of her Russian pimps and pursue a music degree. When Moretz gets beaten up by the mobsters, Denzel, against a former vow to his dead wife, returns to his killing machine ways to rid the area of the Russians. He wipes out Moretz’s attackers but only attracts the ire of the main Russian boss who dispatches his best hitman, Teddy (Marton Csokas), to get rid of Denzel. That proves to be tougher than the cruel Csokas thinks. Eventually, Denzel and the criminals led by Csokas – who are holding Denzel’s workmates hostage – end up in Denzel’s warehouse. Being on Denzel’s home turf does not bode well for the evildoers. What works As usual, Denzel is sensational. He’s directed by Antoine Fuqua again (they did Training Day together) and Denzel is appropriately menacing and gentle, a killer and a kind helping hand. Fuqua does a great job. Especially early. The movie takes its time building up to Denzel first blowing his top. Fuqua lets that tension rise, as sounds become louder (you might jump at

7 ... on a scale of 1-10

Movie Man each subway’s sudden, jarring entrance) and editing become quicker. The mood is gritty and established early. Right off the bat, a long camera shot backs out from a busy Boston into a tidy room with the bed still untouched then back into a pristine small living area and back again to complete neatness. It’s Denzel’s character in a nutshell – quiet among the chaos. The other standout here is Csokas as the calm, maniacal hit man. He calmly enters rooms, tight areas where the big dogs think he’s an idiot yet Csokas quietly takes charge of every situation, often with startlingly violent results. There’s one especially funny comic relief line – direly needed – late in the warehouse finale that involves a call back to Denzel’s weight. Listen carefully or you’ll miss it. Best scene (spoiler) Csokas knows that another hooker that visited Moretz when she was in the hospital knows about Denzel. But she won’t fess up, at first. To convince her, Csokas steadily touches her more and more – her hand, her arm – coiling around her like a human snake. Then, when he has what he needs, he dispatches his unloyal minion – just as you knew he would. It’s unsettling.

What doesn’t work (spoilers) As good as the first half of the movie is, The Equalizer takes a substantial drop once the home-warehouse is reached at the end. Denzel kills with a variety of implements – a drill, a tree saw – and it feels really lazy, madefor-cable-TV, B-movie shtick. Moretz is vital early then completely disappears until very late. That’s when the script’s TV roots show – there’s a generic, tacked on ending that is a cheat. Almost as much as in the epilogue when Denzel heads to

Russia and kills the kingpin, in the second time this year after about 90 seconds. The top creep several years without one: a red deserved more of a dispatching. band trailer. And boy was Seth Rogen’s/ James Franco’s The Interview The rating The Equalizer earns its R. red-worthy. Apparently killing The language – especially from North Korea’s Kim Jong-un rethe Boston locals (cops, mob quire lots of cussin’. bosses) – is a non-stop barrage of f-bombs. (It’s kinda cool that Next up Gone Girl. Denzel never cusses and even (The Movie Man just can’t asks some younger kids why suffer through another version they feel the need to do so.)

Summing up Clearly the Movie Man isn’t the only person who likes Denzel. The matinee audience for The Equalizer was the most packed the Movie Man has seen in years – mostly with older (50s-70s) couples. There is certainly nothing new in this movie. But, because it’s Denzel, the material is elevated. He remains mesmerizing, and the Movie Man smiled at the final scene, one that set up a possible franchise. Trailers Another rarity popped up, for

Art

by mark k. campbell Art runs in Steven Shaw’s family. Shaw, 36 and the owner Advanced Automotive Performance in Azle, knows art. His grandfather was famed sculptor Jack Bryant. Aunt Cynthia Bryant’s detailed illustrations hang in Shaw’s office. Jack Bryant, Jr. continues creating, too. Shaw’s dad, Keith Shaw, and Uncle Stuart Shaw are also artistically bent. And so is Steven. He plies his unique talents in different ways. Shaw’s skills with vehicles at Advanced Automotive allow him to create high performance vehicles, many exotic. Right now, he and his crew are working on a Cobra Mustang engine, supercharging it, he said. But it’s the object out front of the shop that garners so much attention. “We’re ‘gearheads’ here,” he said. “That’s what we do, what we call each other – that’s how it started. “We do a lot of performance engine builds.” Shaw wanted to reflect his business in art and began designing what became the Gear Head, a mounted, moveable sculpture at 1200 Northwest Parkway/Highway 199. “I drew and designed it on an AutoCad, a computer program that lets you work in 3-D architectural models,” said the Azle native. After locking down his idea, Shaw took his blueprints to his

dad and uncle in Fort Worth at ADS, a steel fabrication shop. There, the trio brought Shaw’s idea to life, utilizing a trio of metals – stainless steel, aluminum, and corten. That latter material is what helps make the Gear Head unique. Corten can be found in shipping containers, Shaw said. “It begins to corrode and rust, but then it seals itself. It’s like a bronze. “That gave us three colors of metal, a contrast. It makes a cool look.” It took about a year from the beginnings to the completion of the project, Shaw said. Plasma cutting was involved and had to be done in phases. With its interior spinning gears and cogs set – on a “Dixie chopper lawnmower hub spindle” – the Gear Head was erected this spring and was an immediate hit. “Almost everybody loves it,” Shaw said. “Kids really love it. We have people pull over all the time.” Just recently, he said, a group of Harley-Davidson motorcycle riders stopped to admire the piece and photograph it. “They got it,” Shaw said, noting that not everybody does. “Some can’t make the connection between what we do here and the art,” he said. “But This “Gear Head” sculpture out front of Advanced Automotive Performance off Highway 199 in Azle is art in momost people think it’s pretty tion. Photo by Mark K. Campbell cool.” Shaw admitted he gets satrsroofing.biz isfaction seeing his work admired. “It’s good to have some art back in Azle again,” he said.
