The SMART way to handle a gun

IN BRIEF Cops not liable

A federal judge threw out local resident Robert Sanchez Turner’s lawsuit against the city, the state and city and state police officers, for failing to uphold the 14th Amendment on August 12 by “interven[ing] and protect[ing] a citizen from criminal conduct by third parties.” Judge Norman Moon said there is no clearly established constitutional right to support any of the Unite the Right counterprotester’s claims.

Lawsuit stays alive The Legal Aid Justice Center filed a federal class-action lawsuit in 2016 on behalf of Charlottesville resident Damian Stinnie, 24, who was unable to pay about $1,000 in traffic fines, and lost his driver’s license. It’s the legal group’s position that Virginia’s suspension of licenses for nonpayment of court fees is an “unconstitutional scheme.” A district court dismissed the suit last year, but on May 23, an appeals court overruled the dismissal.

Federal charges

Over the past 20 years, tens of thousands of people have suffered gun-related deaths, according to Mahadevan.

Says the mother who was born in India, “I have three beautiful children, but they have grown up in this awful, fearful, trigger-happy nation and I feel so bad that I cannot give them the simplicity of the life I had in a country where I had never seen a gun. They were very much present there as well, but it was never a threat to safety of civilians.”

Mahadevan’s group offers a list of tips to help gun owners be “SMART” when it comes to their firearms. “We have so many other things to worry about already, this should not be one of them,” she says.

Garrett’s abrupt change of heart Helen “Sandy” Snook

Merger alert

By May 29, a teary Garrett appeared in Richmond at Capitol Square, where he’d served a term in the General Assembly, and said, “Any person—Republican, Democrat or independent—who has known me for any period of time and has any integrity knows two things: I am a good man and I’m an alcoholic,” according to the Washington Post.

The withdrawal could leave the Republican Party of Virginia with a flood of candidates vying to face Democratic nominee Leslie Cockburn. Distillery owner Denver Riggleman, who ran for governor last year, says he’s seeking the nomination.

Delegate Rob Bell is one of the names floated, but C-VILLE had not reached him at press time.

facebook.com/cville.weekly

Civic activist Helen “Sandy” Snook, who was one of the first to integrate a children’s camp and Girl Scout troop in Central Virginia in the 1960s and who was active in the League of Women Voters and many civic organizations, died May 22 at age 90.

Congressman Tom Garrett has many critics in the Charlottesville area who call him “One-term Tom,” but even they didn’t foresee that happening by Garrett withdrawing from the 5th District race.

Word that Garrett may not seek re-election first was reported by Politico May 23 after he and his chief of staff parted ways.

The next day, Garrett held a Facebook Live news conference and insisted he was still in the race, although UVA Center for Politics pundit Larry Sabato described the event as “strange,” the Daily Progress reports.

On May 24, four former staffers told Politico that Garrett and his wife, Flanna, forced them to run personal errands, including picking up groceries and dog poop.

n the heels of two 2-year-old children who were accidentally shot to death in Virginia on the same day last week— one by his 4-year-old brother in Louisa and the other in Roanoke, when a toddler found a loaded gun in his parents’ apartment—one area group is working to make the country safer for children.

“I am always perplexed by the accidental part,” says Priya Mahadevan, the head of the local chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America. “Responsible gun owners do not leave a loaded weapon within reach of their babies. Now a 4-year-old toddler has been saddled with the fate of having killed his sibling.”

On May 23, the group of determined moms and allies held a Wear Orange bingo fundraiser at Random Row Brewery, where dozens of people showed up dressed in the favorite color of Hadiya Pendleton, the 15-year-old girl who was shot and killed in Chicago in 2013. The Wear Orange campaign has been embraced by activist groups across the nation.

Michael Anthony Townes, the Atlanta man who posted threatening messages online against Charlottesville schools and caused all city schools to go into lockdown for two days last October, has been arrested and is facing federal charges. He claimed he would “pull off a copycat” of the mass shooting in Las Vegas at an “all-white charter school” in Charlottesville.

Suspected lynching site

Historic researcher Jane Smith believes the 1898 lynching of John Henry James, which took place at a place identified as Wood’s Crossing, is located on a strip of land currently owned by Farmington Country Club. A 1919 plat shows the blacksmith shop near where the hanging-by-mob took place.

The office of Virginia Humanities executive director Matthew Gibson is located near Boar’s Head Inn across from Farmington.

“Learning that the site of the John Henry James lynching is across the street from our Charlottesville offices makes this particularly horrific part of our nation’s history feel even more real and tangible,” he says. “As our programming seeks to demonstrate, we can’t move forward together to heal the wounds of slavery, segregation and Jim Crow without an honest acknowledgment of the past that got us here.”

“I think it’s important we get this right,” says Smith. “Something in us makes place very important in the commemoration.”

The Legacy Museum in Montgomery has a wall of clear jars of earth collected from where lynchings took place. “We need to know to join in on that national mourning and commemoration,” she says. “That’s why it’s so important to know where it happened.”

New direction—city manager’s contract not renewed Charlottesville Mayor Nikuyah Walker announced this afternoon that the city will not renew City Manager Maurice Jones’ contract, which ends December 7. She said an earlier separation date could be mutually agreed on.

“In the life of any healthy organization, it is important to be able to recognize when change is needed,” Walker said. “Over the past few years, City Council and the city manager have worked earnestly to try to reach an agreement on a mutual vision for the city and the best ways to implement that vision. However, it has become clear to us that what our city needs at this critical juncture is a fresh perspective and a new direction.”

Walker and other city councilors did not take questions at the press conference at which she made the announcement.

“Charlottesville is a special place,” Jones said in a statement. “We have our challenges, like all communities, but we also have the resources, talent and compassion to provide solutions to those complex problems. It is my sincere hope that our city will come together as one to address them. I certainly look forward to continuing our important work together during the remainder of my time with the city.”

Jones began his career with the city as its director of communications in 1999. He took over as city manager in 2010 after serving as assistant city manager for two years, according to the city’s website. Council extended his contract for three years in 2015.

says he’s confident the pilgrimage project team and the club leadership “can determine the accurate site and how to proceed from there.”

The pilgrimage organizers plan a ceremonial soil gathering July 7 with local dignitaries, community members and travelers present when Charlottesville Mayor Nikuyah Walker shovels dirt into the Community Remembrance Project receptacles, which means there’s little more than a month to figure out the lynching site.

Douglas, Smith, Schmidt and a representative from Albemarle County met with Krenn May 25. Schmidt describes the Farmington response as, “We want to help the community.” Krenn will take the matter to the club’s board May 31.

And in further research, Smith found an account that may lead to a still-living person who knew where the locust tree once stood.

Ten victims of the events of last August are suing Unite the Right rally organizer Jason Kessler and multiple white supremacist leaders, including three who were hit by a Dodge Challenger on Fourth Street.

said the alt-right has since denounced as an “edgy joke.”

“We believe that what we have here is just the tip of the iceberg,” she said.

Kolenich, who admitted during the hearing that he doesn’t know which Confederate general’s statue is causing such a ruckus in Charlottesville, said outside the courthouse that the judge should have a ruling within 30 days.

Beside him, his co-counsel gave a rare interview with Washington Post reporter Ian Shapira.

He says 22 tenants had not turned in their paperwork. “It has been a pain in the butt,” he says, and he wonders why the city can’t collect the information from the Department of Motor Vehicles.

“It’s a request for information,” says Divers, who says the city routinely asks landlords for lists of tenants to make sure businesses have licenses or have paid tangible business taxes. And while he hasn’t gone after apartment complexes for lists of renters, “I think the code allows that.”

That’s something Albemarle County is case, “you’d probably get a refund from already doing, according to spokesperson Albemarle,” he says.

Personal property taxes are due June 5, and the city has stepped up its efforts to locate vehicles that reside in Charlottesville, even if their owners don’t.

Woolen Mills Storage, the only storage facility within the city limits, received a request from Commissioner of the Revenue Todd Divers to provide a list of vehicles stored there.

“If a vehicle is parked here on January 1, it’s taxed here,” says Divers.

“It has been a nightmare,” says Woolen Mills Storage general manager Eddie Griffin, who was charged with collecting the name, address, vehicle description and VIN—vehicle identification number—from the 47 rent-

and though the lawsuit points out that he announced the rally on his podcast and his name appeared on rally fliers, Peinovich said that’s “just First Amendment stuff.”

To combat the claims that the suit’s defendants weren’t the ones who conspired to do harm, Kaplan told the judge, “We carefully chose the 25 defendants we did. ...We went after the leaders.”

She said her team is still gathering evidence from websites that alt-right leaders used to plan for the rally, such as Discord, where they often use screen names to conceal their identities.

When she gave the real-life screen name example of “Chef Goyardee,” Peinovich shook with laughter. She also referred to internet conversation about running counterprotesters over with vehicles, which she

he stench of sewage wafting through the Woolen Mills neighborhood has sickened residents since the early 1900s. But after the completion of a 10-year and $10 million odor reduction project at the local wastewater treatment facility, project pioneers and neighbors came together to celebrate the fact that they can finally breathe easy again.

“I haven’t noticed the smell for a while now,” says longtime Woolen Mills resident and former city planning commissioner Bill Emory. “It’s a big deal.”

Emory got a shout-out from City Councilor Kathy Galvin, who doubles as a member of the Rivanna Water & Sewer Authority board, at the May 23 celebratory picnic in the city’s Riverside Park. They were just steps away from the wastewater treatment facility when she gave the longtime resident kudos for “sound[ing] the alarm” on the stench in 2008, and refusing to back down.

In a July 2016 interview with C-VILLE, however, Emory said that when residents called the RWSA to complain about the sewage stink in the mid-1970s, “They would tell us smell was subjective.”

Even RWSA’s director of engineering and maintenance, Jennifer Whitaker, admitted that the organization’s initial response to residents 30 and 40 years ago was that living near pollution was a fact of life. She alluded to a former unnamed utility employee who—a “long, long time ago”—famously made light of the stink by saying, “We’re not baking cookies here.”

That wasn’t the only stomach-turning illusion of food during remarks made at the picnic.

Galvin also commented on RWSA board chairman Mike Gaffney’s mention of the

treatment facility’s “gravity thickeners” that condense the biosolids into a concentrated solids product.

“Mike, I can’t get the phrase ‘gravity thickeners’ out of my head,” she said. “It sounds like [they’re used to make] a powder milkshake, but then I think that through and I get really sick.”

The Moores Creek Advanced Water Resource Recovery Facility treats nearly 10 million gallons of wastewater each day, and while there are lots of technical terms to describe what went down during the project to stop the stink, Emory doesn’t mince words: They did it by “covering the cat box.”

Aside from installing those primary clarifier covers that put an end to open-air waste composting, the utility also installed air scrubber and grit removal facilities.

“It really is pretty amazing,” Emory said, while he and his dog waited near the Mouth Wide Open food truck that RWSA provided for their picnic celebration. He commended Gaffney’s leadership of the board during the “long, tortured” process of crushing the odors.

About 40 people ambled over to the truck to claim their buffalo chicken bites and pimento cheeseburgers as Whitaker hung back to exchange words with attendees who continued to approach her.

Surprisingly, her crew hasn’t received too much other feedback on the project, she said.

“It used to be something we spent lots of time responding to,” Whitaker said, and added that she feels as though the community has already accepted this stink-free reality as the new norm.

Laughing, she was sure to put a positive spin on the lack of public reaction: “We’re not hearing from people about how it’s not working.”

After graduating from Campbellsville, Charity coached multiple tennis teams and played pickleball on the side before moving to Charlottesville in 2016, where she started Weigo with Barrett Worthington, a University of Virginia Darden School of Business alum.

“In tennis, you have to spend months on the court to feel like you’re improving,” Charity says. “In pickleball, you just have to get out there and start playing.”

Worthington and Charity initially imagined an online business that would match tennis players with coaches and organize tournaments and clinics for the sport, but Worthington says it immediately became clear “that pickleball is almost taking over the tennis scene,” and now Weigo supports both sports.

On almost any night of the week, yearround, you can find local pickleballers swinging paddles in open-play sessions at the Brooks Family YMCA, ACAC or several other designated spots around town, often playing for five hours at a time.

“You just get sucked in,” says Charity. “That happens to me, too. Sometimes in the summer, they play until three in the morning.”

“She’s not exaggerating,” adds Worthington. “I’ve never seen people so fanatic about anything in my life.”

hile this weekend’s PickleFest may sound like a celebration of brined cucumbers, it’s instead a festival centered around a sport that’s gained a massive following in Charlottesville over the last half a decade.

Pickleball, the paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton and pingpong, was created in Seattle in 1965, and has been slowly making its way to the eastern United States ever since.

“Unless you’re into pickleball, you might not know it, but people will drive an hour or more to come here to play,” says Teddy Hamilton, president of the Central Virginia Pickleball Club.

The group of about 325 pickleballers from Harrisonburg to Louisa spans all ages and athletic abilities. “It is truly a potpourri of people, and that’s one of the things I like best about it,” Hamilton says.

Her club hosted the Central Virginia Classic with nearly 200 registered pickleball competitors at the Boar’s Head over Memorial Day weekend, but those who missed that tournament will get a second shot at spectating, or even picking up the paddle, this weekend.

PickleFest, founded by local pickleballand tennis-based company Weigo, kicks off at Glenmore Country Club on Thursday, May 31, with a free exhibition match by a team of pros that includes U.S. Open gold medalists and SickTrx (pronounced “sick tricks”) team members Ben Johns, Kyle Yates, Irina Tereschenko and Brian Ashworth.

They’re like the Harlem Globetrotters of pickleball, and best-known for their heavily practiced and entertaining paddlework.

Weigo co-founder Megan Charity, who came to America from South Africa on a tennis scholarship to Kentucky’s Campbellsville University in 2012, also has quite a bit of practice under her belt.

NATIVE SOIL Two local gardens embody the passage of time

By Erika Howsare

The Quarry Gardens at Schuyler were active soapstone mining sites in the 1950s, ‘60s and ’70s, and then the property served as a community dumpsite for about a decade.

Current owners Armand and Bernice Thieblot bought the 600 acres in 1991, and have spent decades cleaning them up and creating a public garden, which features more than 30 galleries of native plants.

decade after shutting down, the quarries had been used as local dumps. The land had also been clear-cut. The Thieblots added onto the little house, planted wisteria along the patio and focused more on stopping erosion into the small lake near their house than on the deep, mysterious quarry pools that lurked further away, in the woods.

here’s a sardine can in Schuyler that holds decades of history.

Imagine, sometime in the mid-20th century, a worker sitting down to eat lunch on the ground. He unrolls the top from a can of sardines and eats the fish, then maybe stretches out for a brief nap in the sun. When it’s time to get back to work, he rises and takes tal lunch box with him as he strides a few steps away to the huge, square-cut hole in the earth, where he and other quarry workers spend their days cutting massive blocks of soapstone.

He leaves the can lying where it came to rest: right next to a small seedling, a tree called devil’s walking stick that sports fearsome thorns along its stems. Seasons pass, rain falls, and the little tree slowly grows thicker. Eventually its bark forms a swollen growth around the can—metal and wood enveloping each other, the quarry worker’s forgotten lunch becoming a physical part of the living tree.

More time passes; no one knows exactly how much, but most people know what happened in Nelson County on the night of August 19, 1969. In some spots around the old quarries—which were soon to be abandoned—the deluge delivered by Hurricane Camille scoured away several inches of topsoil, including from around the base of the walking stick tree. And the sardine can, which had been resting at ground level, was still held by the tree, but it was now 12 inches in the air.

Twenty-two years later, Armand and Bernice Thieblot—a Baltimore couple who owned a successful consulting business— bought a broad swath of this land, including the old quarries. “We wanted something we could improve,” says Bernice.

The Thieblots intended to eventually retire here, but that would be a long time coming. They used their 600-acre Schuyler property as a country retreat, and they spent a lot of weekends cleaning up trash; for a

Botanical dream In Charlottesville, meanwhile, people were talking about a distant idea.

Eugene Ryang was in landscape architecture school at UVA in the 1990s, and he remembers students in Warren Byrd’s studios working on an assignment that, at the

SOMETHING BLUE, SOMETHING NEW?

Just outside the Visitors Center at Quarry Gardens, look for a low grass-like plant with a striking ice-blue color. This is Carex glaucodea, or blue sedge, available from commercial nurseries but perhaps not, thinks Devin Floyd with the Center for Urban Habitats, in exactly this form.

“There are several variants in Virginia of this blue sedge,” he says—“coastal, Piedmont, Blue Ridge.” During CUH’s surveys of the Quarry Gardens biota, Floyd noticed that the blue sedge on-site had a distinctive hue. “I’ve not seen it quite that blue,” he says. “It may have characteristics that are locally unique.”

He and others at Quarry Gardens have affectionately named this plant Quarry blue sedge. They hope to propagate it and make it available for sale. “It’s a mascot for the whole thing we’re doing here,” says Floyd. “It does well in harsh conditions.” And for the plant to have its own local name is an appropriate tribute to the local-native philosophy that has driven the design at Quarry Gardens.

time, was fairly theoretical: a master plan for something called the McIntire Botanical Garden. The idea was to create, for Charlottesville, a garden like those found in many larger cities, a place for people to stroll through galleries of ornamental plants, so they could learn and enjoy as they went.

Although there were plenty of people who wanted to make the botanical garden a reality, it would not be easy to do. It took two decades or so (and a lengthy community battle over the John W. Warner Parkway) before Ryang arrived at the moment in early May 2018 when he stood under a white tent, in an overgrown corner of McIntire Park, and heard his firm’s name read aloud as one of the designers of the McIntire Botanical Garden.

As MBG Board President Linda Seaman remarked just before she announced the two landscape architecture firms the board had chosen—Ryang’s Waterstreet Studio will partner with Boston-based Mikyoung Kim Design—the garden is meant to be a long-term investment in Charlottesville’s future. “It is our hope,” she said, “that 50 to 100 years from now the McIntire Botanical Garden will still be a delight to everyone living here.”

Signs of the times The planting of a garden is a gift from one generation to the generations that will follow. And like a museum or a library, it reflects the values and priorities of the generation that creates it. Just as New York’s Central Park or Philadelphia’s Longwood Gardens are artifacts of their eras, so will the MBG grow from the soil of its times.

The Thieblots, too, came to embrace a distinctly contemporary idea as they considered what to do with their land in Schuyler. After they retired full-time to Nelson County in 2013, they took a trip out west— “the great American road trip,” Bernice says.

One of their stops was Butchart Gardens, a

From this basis, CUH’s design phase aimed to enhance the natural recovery that had been happening on the site for several decades already—to help the land along its trajectory, thus supporting the greatest possible array of native wildlife. “Biological survey really informs the plant design,” he says. Another way to put it: “Landscape design doubles as conservation biology.”

Making connections

To turn their post-industrial land into a public garden site, owners Armand and Bernice Thieblot enlisted the help of the Center for Urban Habitats, which identified 400 plant species on-site, 40 not previously catalogued in Nelson County.

rare bedrock—soapstone—and a completely obliterated landscape,” he says.

“There’s a heavy amount of post oak, blackjack oak and white ash, combined with other species like dwarf hackberry, redbud and a good bit of pine. This is not a standard oak-hickory forest. It’s so starkly different.”

CUH classified much of the Quarry Gardens site as ultramafic, meaning that the soil has a low ratio of calcium to magnesium, and identified a number of niche habitats like vernal pools, hardpan wetlands and small patches of prairie.

“Every landscape has a natural trajectory,” explains Floyd. Bedrock, elevation, exposure, drainage and other factors add up to a recipe that favors some plants over others; left alone, any landscape will eventually host a specific plant community that is much more narrowly “local” than we tend to think when we use terms like “Virginia native plants.” “We like to use the phrase ‘local native,’” says Floyd. “Our definition has been honed thanks to ecologists.”

At Quarry Gardens, Floyd and his team encountered an unusual challenge. “It’s a

That way of thinking about a garden—as a system connected to larger systems—is a hallmark of contemporary design. Gregg Bleam, a landscape architect who’s contributed design work in the past to city parks in Charlottesville, says that botanical gardens are evolving away from the “tree collection” model of the past. “A botanic garden’s like a library on one level—people go there and learn,” he says. In the past, that meant seeing a single tree or plant as a specimen that represented its kind. “Now there’s more of an idea of associations and collections based on natural systems.”

On May 3, the day the MBG schematic design firms were announced, groups of interested people followed Cole Burrell along the mowed pathway that loops through the MBG site. Burrell, an author and garden designer who serves on the MBG board, pointed out the big tulip poplars and maples that will provide “structure” for the future garden, and answered questions from his audience.

One man asked if trees and plants will be labeled when the garden opens to the public.

“There’s nothing worse than a landscape full of labels,” Burrell replied. He described, instead, high-tech “nodes” in the garden where people could use their smartphones to access information about plants and ecology.

botanical garden created more than a century ago in a former quarry in British Columbia. Host to more than 1 million visitors annually, it looks something like the land of Oz: a fantasy of candy-colored flowers, winding paths under blooming archways and gushing fountains.

“That approach didn’t appeal to us,” says Bernice. Nonetheless, she and her husband took inspiration from the idea of transforming post-industrial land into a beautiful public attraction. Bernice had taken Master Gardener training in 2009, becoming aware of the native plant movement. The Thieblots came to embrace a plan for a garden to celebrate the native flora and fauna of their site, while highlighting—not erasing—its quarry history.

Charlottesville-based firm Land Planning & Design Associates created a master plan for the 40 acres that the Thieblots identified as the public garden site, laying out roads, a parking area and two acres of walking trails.

Meanwhile, Bernice was trying to wrap her head around the wealth of knowledge that would be necessary to create a thoughtful, detailed garden design. “I was buying books, but it was overwhelming,” she says. When she met Devin Floyd, the founder of the Center for Urban Habitats, it was “a godsend.”

With a background spanning archaeology, landscape design and natural history, Floyd is used to thinking in broad, interconnected terms. His firm “doesn’t garden with plants,” he says. “We garden with systems— communities of plants.” At what would eventually become Quarry Gardens, CUH started with a sweeping survey of the existing flora and fauna.

The survey identified nearly 400 plant species on the site, about 40 of those not previously reported in Nelson County. More than a simple catalog, it began to form a picture of the Quarry Gardens’ specific geological and biological characteristics—a portrait of where the landscape was then, and where it was headed.

The McIntire Botanical Garden, set to break ground in 2020, is located on 8.5 acres in the eastern corner of McIntire Park. The garden, intended to mimic those found in larger cities, will feature native and site-adapted trees, shrubs and perennial flowers, and include trails and water elements and promote knowledge and conservation of plants and nature. Two landscape design firms—local Waterstreet Studio and Boston-based Mikyoung Kim Design— will collaborate on the project.

that one might experience at a place like Richmond’s Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens, where themed spaces—Asian Valley garden, rose garden, etc.—present a series of separate aesthetic visions. Instead, McIntire is likely to look more like an integrated whole. And while board president Seaman says that she’s heard many requests for a children’s garden in the future MBG, the children’s space may not be a segregated area either, but instead kids may be invited to play and climb in a multitude of spots throughout the site.

TO VISIT

The Quarry Gardens at Schuyler offers free guided tours by reservation. A Visitors Center includes exhibits on the site’s ecology and the native plantings designed by the Center for Urban Habitats. It also teaches guests about Schuyler’s past as a world capital of soapstone quarrying. Just outside, a demonstration garden shows off the potential for beautiful blooms that home gardeners can achieve with native species—highlights are Quarry blue sedge, shrubby St. John’s wort and native goldenrod. See quarrygardensatschuyler.org for visitor info and a wealth of plant data.

McIntire Botanical Garden is still in the planning phase; organizers hope to break ground there in 2020, and it will be a free attraction. For now, it is simply part of McIntire Park, located at the corner of Melbourne Road and the John W. Warner Parkway. See mcintirebotanicalgarden.org.

of discarded soapstone form the Giant’s Stairs, leading to a spot where CUH has planted trillium and bluebells among the rue anemone that was already growing. In another spot, a tumble of rock is designated a “waterside talus,” and prickly pear cacti are planted in the shallow veneer of soil atop the stone.

CUH’s Rachel Floyd, who designed these plant galleries in response to the biological surveying her husband and business partner, Devin, conducted, says that even with CUH’s rigorously native-focused methodology, beauty has to be a consideration. “There’s a bit of push and pull there,” she says, given that Quarry Gardens will depend on volunteers and visitors to fulfill its raison d’etre.

If visitors are expecting something more like Lewis Ginter, they may be disappointed, but perhaps they can be reoriented toward a different kind of beauty.

“It’s easy to get seduced by the aesthetics as a designer, but aesthetics can’t be the primary factor for design; that has to be promoting biodiversity,” says Rachel Floyd. Still, she acknowledges, “We weight some things

While the McIntire Botanical Garden is likely to have a focus on native plants, it remains to be seen whether that will be defined as narrowly as it has been at Quarry Gardens. There, CUH has attempted to include only plants with a local genotype— meaning seeds are sourced from within a 15-mile radius whenever possible. Genetic differences, and relationships with fungi and other organisms, mean that members of the same species in two distant locations (say, Virginia and Pennsylvania) are not interchangeably native. So rather than simply ordering plants from wherever they’re sold, the Floyds and their team have gone into the field, collecting and propagating seed with as local a provenance as possible.

“It’s a level of perfection that can never be reached, but we can get closer,” says Devin Floyd.

Of course, removing invasives is part of the equation, too. Rachel Floyd leads teams of workers who pull out miscanthus, stiltgrass and other unwanted plants, before and after they put in natives. To date they’ve planted nearly 50,000 individual plants, as many as 1,000 a day. About 100 native species have been added to Quarry Gardens that weren’t present in CUH’s initial surveys.

There are always some casualties, of course, but Rachel is pleased to see that some areas planted just two years ago are already well-established. “It’s taking care of itself,” she says.

There’s no practical way to water a place like Quarry Gardens, and letting plants be fairly self-reliant is part of the appeal of a native garden. “If you plant the things that want to grow,” says Bernice Thieblot simply, “they’re likely to do well.”

It’s a mindset that could hardly be a starker contrast to the one represented by the heavy machinery that once cut into the earth here.

Thieblot likes to point out the tree-withsardine-can as an emblem of Schuyler’s industrial past, and the Quarry Gardens Visitors Center functions partly as a mini museum on that topic. (There’s even a model railroad to recall the trains that once carried workers to the quarries.) Yet the Thieblots are still cleaning up after the past, too. After big rains, they take a boat out onto the quarry pools to snag trash that turns up in the water.

One thing is for certain—in Central Virginia, no matter the history of a site, something will grow there. And it may be more likely to be part of the native ecosystem than one would assume. “We were amazed at the number of the native species already here,” says Thieblot, “although that site had been brutally worked over until 1975. It’s a story of resilience.”

May 30 – June 5, 2018 c-ville.com

Quarry Gardens, which opened for guided tours in 2017, and McIntire Botanical Garden, which is slated for groundbreaking in 2020, present two new opportunities for locals to get outside, learn about plants and wildlife, and connect with nature. They represent different models; whereas McIntire is a public project, relying on a partnership with the city (which will contribute a parking lot and restrooms), Quarry Gardens has been funded out-of-pocket by the Thieblots.

And, of course, McIntire is moving more slowly given that a public input process, phased design and the slog of multimilliondollar fundraising are part of its process.

But the two projects share an aspect of cleanup and remediation that, Bleam says, is another contemporary touchstone. As in New York’s Freshkills Park and High Line, the notion of reclaiming an industrial site, or abused piece of land, is one that local governments and the public can easily support.

While the 8.5-acre MBG site doesn’t have a known industrial past, it’s typical of a disturbed, neglected urban landscape. Melbourne Road and the new parkway form two of its sides; a third is a railroad track atop a high embankment. Invasive autumn olive grows in thickets under the tall trees; native spicebush grows cheek-by-jowl with ailanthus and poison ivy. Miller Lite cans and old tires dot the ground, lending the spooky air of a place that’s mostly used by people committing some kind of transgression. And the creek that bisects the site flows between deeply eroded red clay banks.

“We’ll remediate the stream,” said Burrell while leading the May 3 tour, “and make sure it’s an asset.”

Water is an obvious focal point in any garden design, and at Quarry Gardens, the pools created by the soapstone industry are an aesthetic boon. Their near-vertical walls, marked by slight stairsteps, make a moody backdrop, angular and machined in some places and naturally textured in others. “Sites are not static; they have changed over time,” says Bleam. “The industrial past was not great for the environment, but incredibly beautiful in certain strange ways.”

The design at Quarry Gardens takes the rock mining of the past in stride. Huge chunks

From his recordings with The Miracles to his solo work and the numerous hit singles he penned for his Motown pals, Smokey Robinson is responsible for some of the greatest hits of the last century.

Immersed in talent at an early age (Aretha Franklin and Diana Ross lived a few streets away), he competed in singing contests against future chart-toppers.

“The Temptations and The Four Tops and all those people were growing up in my immediate neighborhood,” he told OWN. “I can’t answer why there [were] so many of us in that same neighborhood, but it was happening all over Detroit.” $49.50-250, 8pm.

On a lark

Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital’s Sentara Martha Jefferso Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital’s

Old-time musicians reconnect with their local past

By Mary Shea Valliant arts@c-ville.com

A

Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital’s

Conway, Prism Coffeehouse founder Fred Boyce and Vasile’s former bandmate, prominent folk singer and fiddler Freyda Epstein.

In the early 1990s, Boyce invited Vasile to Charlottesville to play his first gig with Epstein—in a production of Sam Shepard’s A Lie of the Mind. Herrick and the Red Clay Ramblers’ music had been featured in an off-Broadway run of the play.

With the help of Trapezoid bassist Ralph Gordon, Epstein, Vasile and Gordon began performing under the moniker Freyda & Acoustic AttaTude. In 1993, the band borrowed Old Cabell Hall for seven nights, and recorded live cuts that would become the album Midnight at Cabell Hall. Vasile and his bandmates rented 500 moving blankets to cover empty seats in the auditorium to create the album’s rich, award-winning sound.

Ten years later, Epstein was killed in a head-on collision on Route 29 while she was driving to Musicalia, an annual weekend of music in Albemarle County. Vasile remembers as many as 700 people attending Epstein’s memorial, which included musicians from around the country.

It’s the supportive nature of musicianship in Charlottesville that brings Larks back to town. Herrick has always loved Charlottesville, and Vasile says WTJU’s Lambeth Live shows are a great way for artists to get a high-end recording. Herrick will bring his field piano, a 75-pound folding pump organ (used on war fields for church services), which creates what Herrick calls “droney, squawking sounds” similar to a bagpipe.

“The show will be a mix of Claudine’s songs that are of great beauty and interest, and songs by Bob and me that are absurd novelty songs,” says Herrick. “It’ll be half tunes, half heartfelt and half absurd.”

“There are so many incredible things we’ve experienced together,” Vasile says.

“I’m 65 and playing more than ever. It’s like a tune you haven’t played for 10 years, and then you go back to it and remember how awesome it is.”

t a recent house show in Albemarle County, an audience member joined Bob Vasile and his friends, who were performing onstage.

“He was 6'1", 80 years old and looked like he could split wood all day,” Vasile says.

“He got up and sang this song I’d never heard before, this cutesy Irish ballad.”

Not long after the man began singing, Vasile and his bandmates picked up the song’s three chords to back up the stranger’s Irish-accented vocals. They got a kick out of the serendipitous moment, Vasile says.

It’s one of the reasons why he loves playing guitar and a pear-shaped string instrument called the bouzouki at house concerts.

Joining Vasile for an upcoming Lambeth Live concert on June 1, and a private house concert on June 2 are Larks bandmates Jack Herrick and Claudine Langille, who are stalwarts of Irish and Appalachian music.

The trio met 35 years ago in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, where Vasile says old-time music was “bigger than anything.” Herrick was touring globally with the Red Clay Ramblers, a Tony Award-winning string band in which he still plays trumpet and bass.

Tenor banjo and mandolin player Langille was performing with Irish-Appalachian band Touchstone—led by the influential and highly acclaimed Irish vocalist Tríona Ní Dhomhnaill.

“We get a lot out of playing with Claudine,” says Herrick. “She is such a bright spirit, so this is a fun combination.” “[Langille] was the new girl in town,” says Vasile. “Everybody would go watch her play. I see old pictures of us, and we were all kind of cute back then. She was adorable but could play the shit out of that banjo.”

Vasile credits three individuals as pivotal in his development as a musician, and his appreciation for Charlottesville’s wellcultivated music scene—folklorist Cece

n the wake of the 2016 massacre at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Amanda Korman knew what she needed to do. Sing.

At a local vigil, Korman sang songs of solidarity, mourning and protest alongside fellow members of the Charlottesville Women’s Choir “to say we do not want this violence in our country. We want to stand up for the rights of all people to be safe to gather together,” she says.

“We were able to add music to the chorus of everyone in Charlottesville who gathered to speak up in solidarity with the Florida community and the LGBTQ and Latino communities across the country that were in pain,” says Korman.

Founded in 1984 with the mission of “singing for peace and justice,” the Charlottesville Women’s Choir is a local force for good. The self-directed, volunteer-based choir acts as an avenue for women from all walks of life to gather, giving voice and energy to the promotion of social justice through music.

“Women’s choirs in particular have a very rich history of being involved with social change,” Korman says. “I think it was in the ’60s and ’70s that women’s choirs became a space for making social change with a particular blend of feminism, civil rights and gay rights. Since then, we’re continually expanding the umbrella to make sure we’re thinking of justice for all.

In addition to being part of this tradition, CWC supports activism through song choice.

By choosing songs with poignant lyrics that are easy for groups to learn, disparate voices come together and energize people for difficult fights.

Over the last 34 years, the choir has grown from four to 40 members. Singers, from teenagers to retirees, come from all over Charlottesville and the surrounding communities, and many members have been in the choir since the ’80s and ’90s.

Korman, who works at the Women’s Initiative, joined CWC because she loves to sing in groups. “Our choir is about bringing the gift of music to the community, but it’s also a very meaningful social group for all the members,” she says. “We provide a lot of support and friendship to one another.”

That sense of community-within-the-community is partly intentional. Led by music director Karen Beiber, CWC operates by consensus. The group encourages every member to speak up about which events and songs the choir performs. Past events and venues include

The Charlottesville Women’s Choir presents new songs about justice, and one about food fads called “Dinner,” on Sunday at The Haven. Donations at the door will benefit International Neighbors Charlottesville.

the International Day of Peace, Sojourners United Church of Christ and the Fluvanna Correctional Center for Women.

Every spring, CWC performs a benefit concert for local organizations. Past recipients have been the Sexual Assault Resource Agency, Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build and Shelter for Help in Emergency. Keeping with tradition, this year’s performance will benefit International Neighbors Charlottesville, an all-volunteer organization that helps refugees settle in the community.

This year’s concert, held on a Sunday afternoon, is meant to be a space for adults and children alike to have fun, let loose and sing along while feeling solidarity within the community.

“We’re living in very trying times where more people in our own country don’t feel safe, where women’s rights, immigrants’ rights and civil rights are being questioned anew,” Korman says. “A lot of the songs that we sing [in this concert] speak to the need, to the importance of equal rights for everyone, particularly because of the time that we’re living in and the news cycle that we’re experiencing every day.”

One song in particular stands out. “Signs,” written by Ruth Huber, pays homage to the power of women’s voices as a collective. With lyrics inspired by messages from signs at the 2017 Women’s March, the song talks about the #MeToo movement, Black Lives Matter

and protecting and representing the rights of immigrants, Native Americans and First Peoples, and lesbian, gay and trans people.

“This song tries to be really expansive while honoring the particular power of a womenled effort,” Korman says. “It names communities whose rights are being threatened and who, when we come together in solidarity, have so much power.”

Even the music hints at feminine power.

“I am a soprano one which is the highest of

Charlottesville Women’s Choir The Haven June 3

all of the voices. We’re the stratospheric singers,” Korman says. “In this song, we sing a very high A note and, to me, being able to sing this high A represents being able to reach beyond what you think is possible, to hit notes that maybe only a woman could hit.” Some men could hit this note as well, but you take my point.”

In the end, Korman says, her hope for the concert is the same as that of the CWC: galvanizing people to take action in the community. “My hope is that you come away energized and ready to make positive change in Charlottesville.”

“A lot of the songs that we sing [in this concert] speak to the need, to the importance of equal rights for everyone, particularly because of the time that we’re living in and the news cycle that we’re experiencing every day.” AMANDA KORMAN

ARTS INTERVIEW

Long time comin’ David Crosby is still speaking out against the madness arts@c-ville.com

N

aming someone a “voice of a generation” may be cliché, but when applied to David Crosby, there’s nothing trite about it. After founding The Byrds with Roger McGuinn in 1964, he left to form Crosby, Stills and Nash in ’69. Neil Young joined after the first album, and CSNY played its second live gig at Woodstock. The group’s spellbinding harmonies confronted political and social issues, and are synonymous with the hippie movement of the ’60s and ’70s. A consistent member of the famously tumultuous band, Crosby endured addiction, prison time and multiple health issues, but his ethos and sense of purpose remain strong. He spoke to C-VILLE by phone from his home in California.

C-VILLE: First, let’s talk about your new album, Sky Trails. From the political “Capitol” to the lush, beautiful “Amelia,” you are still making important music.

DC: “Capitol” we put in and take out from night to night. “Amelia” is one of my favorite Joni Mitchell songs. I was sort of afraid to take a swing at it for years. It’s such a great song I couldn’t resist it, and my son James did a great piano part.

What did the hippies accomplish?

A lot. We managed to end the Vietnam War. It took us about 10 years instead of

Do you see it among your friends in other bands?

Yes! Every band, everywhere, all the time.

I feel disillusioned.

Don’t be disillusioned. They are human beings.

They can be inspirational and be jerks at the same time. I certainly think that at times I was inspirational and making really good music, and I also know for sure I was a jerk. You gotta look at it that way.

Your idols musically are human beings, they are not flawless. That whole stardom thing is absolutely bullshit.

You’ve been very open about your struggles. Why all the drugs?

Quite simply I had a girlfriend who I was in love with and [she] was killed in a car wreck.

And I had no way to deal with it. I absolutely was unequipped. I had no way to deal with

At 76, David Crosby continues to create new music and wow audiences. He performs songs from throughout his career at the Paramount on Thursday.

it and so I started doing heroin. Heroin is a painkiller and I was in pain. It didn’t take long for that to pretty much destroy me.

What was your reaction when Melissa Etheridge asked you to be a sperm donor?

Here’s how that went down. My wife [Jan] is a very, very sweet, very good-hearted human being. And Melissa and Julie visited us in Hawaii...at the time, Django was a baby, a completely happy child. And they said, “How do you get one of those? We’ve been trying to figure out how to do this and people are very resistant to letting you adopt as a gay couple, and resistant to being donors.”

Jan just looked at them and pointed at me. She said, “No, really, that’s how.” And I said, “Okay, I’ll go along with that.” They loved each other and were nice human beings.

So we donated twice—Becca and Bailey, and they are stunner kids.

With all the talented friends you have, who would you choose in assembling a supergroup?

Gilmour. [David] Gilmour is an intensely musical human being. And one of the best guitar players alive.

Bonnie Raitt. Probably the best singer alive. Just wonderful.

Bass player: Michael League.

Drummer would have to be the same guy that I pick always, Steve DiStanislao. He’s unbelievable.

Stevie Wonder. If I couldn’t get him, I’d get Michael McDonald. I love Michael.

What would it take to reunite CSNY? Neil. That’s all. He’s the deciding factor, always has been.

I don’t think he wants to do it and I don’t think he needs to do it. He’s got a really good band. They deliver for him.

I heard a clip of him playing “Cortez the Killer” and it was some of the best guitar I’ve ever heard him play. He’s also got the Horse, but with Nils in there...Nils [Lofgren] is a force of nature, man, that guy is an unbelievable musician.

We look forward to having you in Charlottesville.

I look forward to being there. That’s a good bunch of people there and I think they had a horrible thing happen to them. I wanna come there and try to make people happy.

Do you think music can still be an effective way to protest?

Yeah. I think so. ...It’s part of our job, but it can’t be the main part because then you are preaching to people and that’s not really okay. You can do it once in a while...like the song “Capitol.”

God, we have such a crappy Congress. You know, it’s the lowest approval rating we’ve ever had, the lowest accomplishment record we’ve ever had. They’re useless and so they kinda earned that one.

Regarding music, the stories of infighting and breakups, all that CSNY dirt is out there for people to Google. Tell me about the good stuff. How was the magic made?

I think we did really good work. ...You know when you start a band like that the other guy’s music is fresh to you and it’s very exciting.

Frankly, we sounded really good. We loved each other for how good we sounded and how much fun we were having. But what happens to bands is that they devolve from that state to one in which you don’t like each other, and you all turn on the smoke machine and play your hits for the dollar, for the check, and that’s not good.

@artscville

But as an artist you can’t stop creating.

This is what we leave behind. This is the mark we get to make, these records. I just don’t think it’s fair that these companies are making billions of dollars, these streaming companies making zillions of bucks. And they’re not paying me, and I make the music.

What do you think the chances are that Trump will be re-elected?

I think there’s a good chance.

I was talking with a guy who I follow named [Christopher] Dickey, he’s a writer, a really good journalist, and he gave me about an hour’s lecture on why he thinks we are not gonna be able to unseat Trump and keep him from being re-elected.

Back to music...Here’s the deal on music: It’s a very tough world right now. Just as the world drags the human race down, music lifts it up. So that’s my job. I’m gonna go out there and play music and make people happy. They need it.

May 30 – June 5, 2018 c-ville.com

Are you working on more new material?

There’s another new album already made. ...I don’t know why I’m doing it though.

Because of streaming we don’t get paid on records anymore. It’s makin’ it really hard for me, because I have to work on the road twice as much as I used to. ...I can’t pay my mortgage unless I do.

about one, but we did it. We advanced civil rights in this country. Nowhere near as much as we’d hoped when we saw Obama become president because now, right there in Charlottesville, those guys with the torches sort of ripped the scab off and proved that racism is alive and well in this country, unfortunately.

But, I can’t help feeling when I see these kids marching, and the Women’s March— the Women’s March really inspired me. I thought, “My god, maybe they can save the country,” and I wish you guys would.

reshoot approximately 70 percent of what had been completed so far. The inclusion of Lord & Miller had been an early selling point for Solo, showing Disney was willing to take risks with the newly acquired Lucasfilm, but the sudden replacement with a more-or-less safe filmmaker like Howard, plus casting concerns, led many to doubt Solo in advance.

If this had not been in the news prior to Solo’s release, none of it would have been apparent in the final product, which is tight, exciting, consistent and most important of all, a heck of a lot of fun.

L

ike its title character, Solo: A Star Wars Story often threatens to go wildly off track and ruin everything it has going for it, before it comes back with charm and skill, ready to save the day despite its rough edges. The second, after Rogue One, of the so-called Star Wars anthology films—stories that take place within the broader Star Wars universe but are not necessarily directly tied to the events of the main films—Solo plays like an old-fashioned summer feel-good blockbuster, from the era when franchise tentpoles weren’t being released every three months. It’s a movie full of engaging performances, creative visuals, daring heists and double-crosses so tense you’ll forget you already know which characters make it out alive.

The story follows Han Solo (Alden Ehrenreich) from his humble origins as a slave on a scrap planet to the rogue we came to love.

During a botched escape attempt, Han and his girlfriend Qi’ra (Emilia Clarke) are separated, and it becomes his life’s mission to save her. His enthusiasm for theft and smuggling, and his inability to quit in the face of adversity, catches the attention of a crew led

answering questions that no one asked, simply as exposition for its own sake.

Much has been made of Solo’s troubled history: Original directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, 21 Jump Street, The Lego Movie) were fired after most of filming had already been completed, with apparent disagreements between the team and the studio over tone, working style and the level of improvisation on set, with substantial changes to the screenplay by Jonathan and Lawrence Kasdan. Ron Howard was brought on to

by Tobias Beckett (Woody Harrelson), who owes a very large sum to Dryden Vos (Paul Bettany), leader of crime syndicate and near-paramilitary organization the Crimson Dawn. To pull off a heist big enough, they employ the help of suave gambler Lando Calrissian (Donald Glover), owner of the Millennium Falcon.

It’s tough to say if Solo would work as a stand-alone film had the other Star Wars movies never come out, but there are several scenes that capture the excitement of the original trilogy, and some sequences would even work in a non-SW story. A twist on a classic train robbery immediately stands out, and at least two other extended sequences make this well worth the price of admission.

Ehrenreich sells Han’s hunger for the next adventure and bigger scores, grounding his key character traits and testing them with clever moral dilemmas. Harrelson, Clarke and Bettany all appear to be enjoying themselves as well, but the true scene-stealer is Glover. As Lando, he brings life and humor to the iconic part, elevating the role beyond mere imitation of key quirks. On the downside, the movie is about 20 minutes too long, and the notion that every trait of Han Solo’s has its origins in a single story is a little corny,

The inspiration for many of Regina Pilawuk Wilson’s paintings lies in another art form: weaving.

At a roundtable discussion at the Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection, Wilson explains that her people, the Ngangikurrungurr, who are indigenous to Australia’s Daly River region, had passed on fishnet stitches from generation to generation, each community having its own special stitch. But over time, as whites colonized the land and forced the Aboriginal people to live on reserves and missions (similar to Native American reservations) with strict rules that in many cases aimed to dissolve indigenous cultures and traditions, many of those fishnet stitches were lost.

In the early 1970s, Wilson and her husband started Peppimenarti, a community for the Ngangikurrungurr people, with little more than a tent. They had to leave the mission in order to practice their culture, their art, their language, says Wilson.

Wilson, a master weaver, sought to revive the fishnet stitches her ancestors used. Carrying a photograph of her mother with a piece of fishnet her grandfather had stitched, Wilson searched for someone who could teach her that particular stitch. She visited many “very old” women before finding one who remembered the stitch. Wilson then painted the stitch onto canvas, brushstroke by brushstroke, ensuring that it would be visible and not lost again.

“It’s like a story that’s been there forever,” says Wilson’s granddaughter, Leaya. “It’s like putting a culture in a canvas, a painting—it’s strong.”

Second Street Gallery curator Kristen Chiacchia says that when most people think of contemporary art, they think of it in the Western tradition—abstract paintings, severe sculpture— but there’s more to it. Contemporary art “is art of our time, not art of a place,” says Chiacchia. It’s why she wanted to give Wilson’s work a solo show at Second Street Gallery and give Charlottesville the chance to see contemporary art that will challenge expectations.

Wilson’s work remembers the past in order to understand the present and a promise of the future.

It’s there in the title of show, “Ngerringkrrety” which, Wilson explains, means, “from our ancestors, we hold it very strong.”—Erin O’Hare

More than meets the Thai

By Erin O’Hare and Sam Padgett eatdrink@c-ville.com

Rocket fuel A new coffee shop has opened at the busy intersection of Route 250 and Crozet Avenue.

Occupying the old Gateway Market spot, Rocket Coffee’s aim is to serve quality coffee to the steady stream of commuters that drives by. Owner Scott Link took inspiration for his shop from atomic age iconography, lending the space an almost “Jetsons”-like feel that emphasizes both its convenience and the pep given from its beverages. “It’s simply snappy, it really says coffee,” says Link.

Chimm Thai & Southeast Asian restaurant, located at 5th Street Station and co-owned by Jay Pun (left) offers a wide variety of Thai dishes, all served with chef Nui Thamkankeaw’s (right) homemade sauces.

In its pursuit of tending to commuters, Rocket Coffee also serves MarieBette Café & Bakery pastries, as well as homemade grab-and-go sandwiches and salads.

Tasty tidbits Tavola received kudos from Wine Spectator

magazine for its “affordable exploration of Italian wines” (C-VILLE arts editor, Tami Keaveny, co-owns the restaurant with her husband, Michael). The write-up, posted to Wine Spectator’s website on May 10, notes that “Wine director Priscilla Martin’s Award of Excellence-winning wine list of around 100 labels is concise but strong.”

Augustiner Beer Hall, in the Glass Building (the former Bebedero space), held a soft opening last week, with full service. They’ve built out a deck into the parking lot, too, just in time for the summer weather.

Jeremiah Langhorne, who grew up in the Charlottesville area and attended Albemarle High School, won the Best Chef Mid-Atlantic accolade at the 2018 James Beard Foundation Awards. Langhorne trained under chef John Haywood at the now-shuttered OXO restaurant before moving on to McCrady’s in Charleston, South Carolina. In 2015, he opened The Dabney in Washington, D.C., and in 2016 the restaurant received one of the city’s first Michelin stars.

“There’s so much more Thai food than what people see...” JAY PUN, CO-OWNER OF CHIMM THAI & SOUTHEAST ASIAN RESTAURANT

May 30 – June 5, 2018 c-ville.com

or Nui Thamkankeaw, part of the fun of being a chef is making every component that goes on the plate, down to the sauces and the curry pastes.

“If you’re a real chef, you really want to get into it,” says Thamkankeaw, executive chef at Chimm Thai & Southeast Asian restaurant, who spoke with C-VILLE through a translator.

He grew up in Chiang Mai, the largest city in northern Thailand, and worked in the hotel restaurant industry in Bangkok for years before coming to the U.S. two decades ago.

Chimm, which opened May 23 between The Yard food hall and Alamo Drafthouse Cinema at 5th Street Station, is a sister restaurant to the Thai Cuisine & Noodle House on Commonwealth Drive, co-owned by musician and educator Jay Pun, his software engineer aunt Pim Little and his retired physician dad Pong Punyanitya. They worked with Thamkankeaw years ago, at their previous restaurant, Thai!, one of the first Thai restaurants in town (there are now more than a dozen).

“There’s so much more Thai food than what people see” in most Thai restaurants in the U.S., says Pun, which is why they’ve focused Chimm’s menu on Thai street food in the hopes of giving Charlottesville a wider taste for Thai cuisine.

Thamkankeaw and Punyanitya explain that Thailand is full of food court-type places where dozens of stands and carts, each specializing in a different type of dish, offer an astounding variety of food.

In addition to the familiar curry dishes, pad Thai and fried rices, Chimm’s offerings

include an extensive variety of starters such as chicken satay, skewered meatballs and grilled pork, all of which pair well with the ramekins full of Thamkankeaw’s fresh sauces that a server delivers to the table so they can be enjoyed with any dish. There’s a steamed dumpling stuffed with ground pork, crab and water chestnut served with a ginger soy sauce; salads, including laab, a ground meat or tofu salad in a spicy lime dressing with red onions and ground toasted rice; soups, noodle bowls and classic pho of the beef, chicken and vegetable/vegetable broth varieties. Thamkankeaw will offer daily specials, too, and they’ll be a tad more expensive than the other dishes on the menu, which run between $3 and about $15.

So, which dishes are Chimm’s owners and chef particularly excited for? Pun’s a pho and Thai noodle bowl fan, and Thamkankeaw recommends the khao soi and crispy duck (he loves duck and roasts his own in-house), while Punyanitya’s fond of the wonton soup—so much so that he eats it almost daily for lunch.

LIVING FREE WILL ASTROLOGY LIVING FREE WILL ASTROLOGY

By Rob Brezsny

Cancer (June 21-July 22): Ninety-five percent of your fears have little or no objective validity. Some are delusions generated by the neurotic parts of your imagination. Others are delusions you’ve absorbed from the neurotic spew of other people’s imaginations. What I’ve just told you is both bad news and good news. On the one hand, it’s a damn shame you feel so much irrational and unfounded anxiety. On the other hand, hearing my assertion that so much of it is irrational and unfounded might mobilize you to free yourself from its grip.

I’m pleased to inform you that the coming weeks will be an excellent time to wage a campaign to do just that. June can and should be Fighting for Your Freedom from Fear Month.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): During the next four weeks, I’ll celebrate if you search for and locate experiences that will heal the part of your heart that’s still a bit broken. My sleep at night will be extra deep and my dreams extra sweet if I know you’re drumming up practical support for your feisty ideals. I’ll literally jump for joy if you hunt down new teachings that will ultimately ensure you start making a daring dream come true in 2019. And my soul will soar if you gravitate toward the mind-expanding kind of hedonism rather than the mind-shrinking variety.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Everyone has a unique fate that’s interesting enough to write a book about. Each of us has at least one epic story to tell that would make people cry and laugh and adjust their thoughts about the meaning of life. What would your saga be like? Think about what’s unfolding right now, because I bet that would be a ripe place to start your meditations. The core themes of your destiny are currently on vivid display, with new plot twists taking your drama in novel directions.

Want to get started? Compose the first two sentences of your memoir.

Libra

Gemini (May 21-June 20): On February 17, 1869, Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleyev had an appointment with a local cheese-making company to provide his expert consultation. But he never made it. A blast of inspiration overtook him soon after he awoke, and he stayed home to tend to the blessed intrusion. He spent that day as well as the next two perfecting his vision of the periodic table of the elements, which he had researched and thought about for a long time. Science was forever transformed by Mendeleyev’s breakthrough. I doubt your epiphanies in the coming weeks will have a similar power to remake the whole world, Gemini. But they could very well remake your world. When they arrive, honor them. Feed them. Give them enough room to show you everything they’ve got. may seem rude and insensitive. Why is it so challenging to have integrity?—Vexed Libra.”

Dear Libra: My advice is to avoid the allor-nothing approach. Be willing to be halfgood and half-right. Sometimes the highest forms of integrity require you to accept imperfect solutions.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You have waited long enough to retaliate against your adversaries.

It’s high time to stop simmering with frustration and resentment. Take direct action!

I suggest you arrange to have a box of elephant poop shipped to their addresses. Just kidding!

I misled you with the preceding statements.

It would in fact be a mistake for you to express such vulgar revenge. Here’s the truth: Now is an excellent time to seek retribution against those who have opposed you, but the best ways to do that would be by proving them wrong, surpassing their accomplishments and totally forgiving them.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Marketing experts say that motivating a person to say yes to a big question is more likely if you first build momentum by asking them smaller questions to which it’s easy to say yes. I encourage you to adopt this slant for your own purposes in the coming weeks. It’s prime time to extend invitations and make requests that you’ve been waiting for the right moment to risk. People whom you need on your side will, I suspect, be more receptive than usual—and with good reasons—but you may still have to be smoothly strategic in your approach.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I bet you’ll be offered at least one valuable gift, and possibly more.

But I’m concerned that you may not recognize

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): When I was a kid attending elementary schools in the Midwest, recess was a core part of my educational experience.

For 45 minutes each day, we were excused from our studies so we could indulge in free-form play—outdoors, if the weather was nice, or else in the gymnasium. But in recent years, schools in the U.S. have shrunk the time allotted for recess. Many schools have eliminated it altogether. Don’t they understand this is harmful to the social, emotional and physical health of their students? In any case, Aquarius, I hope you move in the opposite direction during the coming weeks. You need more than your usual quota of time away from the grind. More fun and games, please! More messing around and merriment! More recess!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): For many years, actor Mel Blanc provided the voice for Bugs Bunny, a cartoon character who regularly chowed down on raw carrots. But Blanc himself did not like raw carrots. In a related matter, actor John Wayne, who pretended to be a cowboy and horseman in many movies, did not like horses. And according to his leading ladies, charismatic macho film hunk Harrison Ford is not even close to being an expert kisser.

What about you, Pisces? Is your public image in alignment with your true self? If there are

discrepancies, the coming weeks will be an excellent time to make corrections.

Aries (March 21-April 19): A critic described Leonardo da Vinci’s painting the “Mona Lisa” as “the most visited, most written about, most sung about, most parodied work of art in the world.” It hasn’t been sold recently, but is estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Today it’s kept in the world-renowned Louvre museum in Paris, where it’s viewed by millions of art-lovers. But for years after its creator’s death, it enjoyed little fanfare while hanging in the bathroom of the French King Francois. I’d love to see a similar evolution in your own efforts, Aries: a rise from humble placement and modest appreciation to a more interesting fate and greater approval. The astrological omens suggest that you have more power than usual to make this happen in the coming weeks and months.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): These days, many films use CGI, computer-generated imagery. The technology is sophisticated and efficient.

But in the early days of its use, producing such realistic fantasies was painstaking and time-intensive. For example, Steven Spielberg’s 1993 film Jurassic Park featured four minutes of CGI that required a year to create.

I hope that in the coming weeks, you will summon equivalent levels of old-school tenacity and persistence and attention to detail as you devote yourself to a valuable task that you love. Your passion needs an infusion of discipline. Don’t be shy about grunting.

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Dear Oracle: I find myself in the weird position of trying to decide between doing the good thing or doing the right thing. If I opt to emphasize sympathy and kindness, I may look like an eager-to-please wimp with shaky principles.

But if I push hard for justice and truth, I

Q&A What do you think of the city’s decision to hire RaShall Brackney as Charlottesville’s police chief?

It wasn’t the city’s decision, it was the City Council’s decision...the fact that they did not challenge or ask the right questions makes the decision rather questionable. Yes, you can ask me what critical questions they evidently did not ask, according to recent reports.

SKIP DEGAN/FACEBOOK

Bless her heart. I wouldn’t want that job.

AMY ARCHIE/FACEBOOK

Her statement about wanting to look forward is going to be criticized because we can’t forget about the past. I’m surprised there were 169 applicants, and that she wanted this position after everything we’ve been through.

KEN REAGLE

RaShall & Maurice must think we are both naive & gullible to believe Rashall “retired” from GWU after less than three years. RaShall was forced to leave for nonperformance, just like Al Thomas. Another BAD HIRE by Maurice. UNDERqualified & OVERpaid.

Anybody foolish enough to take this job probably deserves it. @TONYTOWNSEND/TWITTER

First, the fact that no candidates were considered from C’ville’s force tells a very sad story about every member.

Second, opinions about RaShall must be withheld until she has been on the job for 100 days = September 25.

80 people from 10 countries answered a call for entries with incredible and thought-provoking design proposals to further a conversation of the meaning of public art as it might intersect with the history of a specific place in the world - the west end of our downtown mall.

That so much international effort went into thinking about a single space in our town, with so much talent devoted to creating a way forward from the overlapping truths of that place is inspiring.

Communities are analogous: in our diversity is our strength.

Charlottesville’s potential as a community is unlimited. To make progress on the arc of our potential requires self-awareness, commitment to the cause, and commitment to each other. We believe design, and dialog about design, will continute to contribute to that noble effort.

Builders know that a durable structure is the gift of a conspiracy of divergent materials. Concrete without steel to make it strong will fail. Wood without flashing will decay in the weather. Different materials in mutual support of one another are essential to any structure expecting to withstand the test of time. A building constructed from a single material, an ecosystem populated by a single species, or a culture based on a single idea would not be viable propositions.
