– U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson on his decision to run for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Marco Rubio

Little-known Republicans line up to run for Rubio’s seat

A

s soon as Republican U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, who sailed into his seat on a wave of Tea Party good times in 2010, announced that he’d be running for president in 2016, everybody started looking around for the right Republican to hand his legacy off to. Attorney General Pam Bondi didn’t want it (we keep hearing that she might run for governor once Gov. Rick Scott has finished having his way with the office, which is a prospect that is both terrifying and fascinating) and state CFO Jeff Atwater didn’t step up for it, either. There’s a good chance that whoever runs for Rubio’s seat will likely face off against the Democratic party’s simultaneously most loved and most hated progressive bulldog, Alan Grayson (who, somewhat ominously, said when he announced his plan to run for the seat, “What people see us doing in this race is going to live until the end of time. This is going to be the first race, the first real political race, of the 21st century”). We’re putting our money on Grayson, by the way, because what are the chances that the other major Dem in this race, extremely safe bet/very uninspiring pick, U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy, will win the hearts of progressives during primary season? Here is who the Republicans have come up with so far to follow in Rubio’s footsteps: U.S. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Jacksonville, an Iraq war veteran and a “reform conservative” who has already raised more than $2 million and is being called the frontrunner in this barely begun race; Orlando combat

just four days later, Susannah Randolph, Grayson’s district director, announced that she plans to run for his seat. On July 16, state Sen. Darren Soto announced that he’s also going to run. Both are well-liked local Dems, and they’re friends (Randolph told the Sentinel, “I like Darren. We’re friends. But I know I can do a better job”), and some locals are already taking sides. Randolph is a staunch supporter of women’s rights, and an invitation to an Aug. 12 fundraiser for her campaign lists among her host committee local attorney (and medical marijuana proponent) John Morgan, Equality Florida’s statewide deputy director of development Michael Farmer, former Rollins College president Rita Bornstein and former Congresswoman Pat Schroeder. Soto, who has more recently become known as a champion of environmental issues in the state Legislature, and he sponsored a bill last session that would ban fracking in the state. At his announcement, he had at his side Orange-Osceola State Attorney Jeff Ashton, state Democratic Party secretary Jimmy Auffant and former state Rep. Linda Stewart. Two other Democratic candidates have also announced their intentions to run: former Osceola County Democratic chair Valleri Crabtree and former state Rep. Ricardo Rangel. – ES

tion, and Crist is hoping to get a piece of that action. “If the new congressional map includes my home, I intend on running to serve the people again,” he tweeted on Monday afternoon. As a Democrat, we presume. It’s tough to say what’ll happen in a race full of barely known Republican faces who are going to have to work hard to develop name recognition and get people to warm to their personal histories. But on the presidential race, we have a prediction: Rubio will lose the Republican primary to fellow candidate Jeb Bush, who will then ask him to join the ticket as vice presidential candidate, which would marry Bush’s faux-moderate chocolate to Rubio’s conservative peanut butter. Who else could he possibly choose? Ted Cruz? Rand Paul? Donald Trump, anyone? – Erin Sullivan

“It’s going to be famous. What people see us doing in this race is going to live until the end of time.”

Local Dems (and friends) to vie for seat being vacated by Grayson veteran Todd Wilcox, founder of defense contractor Patriot Defense Group; current Lt. Gov. Carlos Lopez-Cantera, who has been on exactly nobody’s radar since his appointment to the position in early 2014, and about whom Scott said when he appointed him, “I love the fact he’s Hispanic,” which the party is probably hoping is what voters will love about him, too; earlier this week, U.S. Rep. David Jolly, R-Dunedin, also entered the race and announced that if elected, he would fight for your right to “determine your own future, practice your own faith and pursue the American dream – and that includes making your own health care coverage decisions.” Pretty sure that’s code for “you’re on your own if you’re poor, long live the tenets of conservative Christianity, tax cuts for big business – and no expanded healthcare for you.” The Democratic party responded to the Jolly announcement, and the entire field of candidates who’ve announced thus far, with scorn, naturally: “Koch-backed Tea Partiers, a no-show lieutenant governor with more baggage than Rick Scott’s private jet can carry, and now a Washington lobbyist,” state Democratic party chairwoman Allison Tant said in a statement on Monday. “Could Florida Republicans have assembled a primary field more out of touch with middle class voters than these four?” And then there was Charlie Crist. After Jolly made his announcement, the former Republican governor, turned Democratic gubernatorial hopeful, announced that he might make an appearance in the race for Congress as well. Jolly’s district is likely going to be redrawn before the next elec-

G

rayson’s announcement that he’s running for Senate means his seat in the 9th Congressional District is wide open, and local Democrats have wasted no time expressing their interest in succeeding him. On July 9, Grayson made the announcement that he’d run for Senate. On July 13,

How other states are dealing with languageaccess laws

A

ccording to a Brennan Center for Justice report in 2009, 46 percent of state courts fail to require that interpreters be provided in all civil cases, 80 percent fail to guarantee that people needing interpretation are not unlawfully charged and 37 percent fail to require that interpreters be credentialed. A decade after an administrative complaint was filed against Maine’s judicial system for not following federal law, communication access specialist Taylor Kilgore says the state will provide an interpreter to anyone who identifies as LEP, no questions asked. “We have had to make cuts from other places, but this is one of our big priorities,” she says. Maine doesn’t really have large populations that speak one language, but rather smaller community pockets that each speak their own language, and Kilgore says that at times it can be hard to find speakers of lesscommon languages. In California, the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles filed a complaint against the state judicial system in 2010 after two Koreanspeaking people involved in civil suits were denied interpreters in Los Angeles County, says Joann Lee, directing attorney for the foundation. The California courts decided to comply voluntarily with the Department of Justice in 2011, and in January of this year created a strategic plan to expand the provision of spoken language interpreters by 2020 to include all civil proceedings and all courtordered, court-operated programs, services or events, according to the California Language Access Plan. “I think people are very appreciative,” Lee says. “There’s still some bumps in the road but for the most part, they are happy with the new policy.” – MC

Gatherings of like-minded locals forge connections in real life By Justin Braun

orlandoweekly.com

A

local group of (mostly) millennial movers and shakers is shifting the scene. Instead of the so-called “social network,” that digital world we all half-live in, they’re creating gatherings ripe with opportunity for making real-life, lasting, meaningful connections between people with shared interests. And they’re accomplishing this using a concept that’s been around for more than a decade. They’re organizing meet-ups. By definition, a meet-up is an arranged, informal encounter between two or more people. Meetup.com, which calls itself “the world’s largest network of local interest groups,” defines a meet-up as “neighbors getting together to learn something, do something or share something.” The website that took off as a political organizing tool for Howard Dean’s presidential campaign is based on the simple observation that the Internet could be used to make it easier for people to connect “IRL” in their communities. Until recently meet-ups remained somewhat underground, like Prohibition-era speakeasies, even though there are thousands of meet-ups in Orlando listed on the site. A select few are creating unique and unusual experiences that are some of the hottest events in town. From bike tours to geek gatherings, pop-up discos to entrepreneurial enclaves, dinner parties to TED Talk-style lectures, there are hip happenings for you and people just like you to find your place, passion and purpose.

TALK WITH YOUR MOUTH FULL

Catering to foodie folk, the Dinner Party Project is an invitation-only meet-up that brings eight strangers together for a casual yet traditional multi-course dinner catered by a local chef. In a salon-like atmosphere, hostess Dana Marie Roquemore leads intimate conversations between people from different circles – chosen at random from an online lottery – in order to create new connections. Having hosted more than 60 dinners in the past 10 months, she says she is giving strangers an opportunity to share their stories. She accomplishes this by keeping the party large enough to keep the conversation going, but small enough for everyone to have a chance to speak. “It’s a social adventure outside of normal everyday interactions, playing on random connections,” she says. “Friendships have blossomed through this experience. Others have gotten job offers from the people they met.”

SHOW AND TELL But where do people go when their whole life is their work? Orlando Tech Association’s meet-up, that’s where. Now held monthly in Church Street Exchange’s flexible co-working space Canvs, the meet-up began in 2011 at the Rusty Spoon with 10 owners of tech startups looking for an outlet to demo their products and get real-world feedback. Since then, it has continued to grow, becoming the largest tech startup and meet-up group in the Southeast. “We’re the only event that attracts everyone from the tech community,” says Orrett Davis, executive director of Orlando Tech Association. “More than just the people on the technology side, we get creatives, designers, business professionals and investors. It’s the full spectrum of the industry.” This is accomplished by keeping the atmosphere light and fun – suits and ties are not acceptable. The entrepreneurs who pitch at the meet-ups are at a stage where their products are ready to be unveiled: “Attendees are able to feel, play with, touch and react to each.”

So far 150 companies have demoed their products, raising between $60-$70 million in total investor funding. In fact, during Orlando’s Tech Week in April, this was one of 50 technology meet-ups invited to the White House to discuss how the government can better tap into technology. “We are on our way to becoming the city’s first ‘digital main street’ with the goal of helping local businesses get off the ground and enterprise corporations source new talent and innovation,” Davis says.

BUMP AND GRIND According to Phil Santos, the local DJ performing under the name VSN QST (pronounced Vision Quest), there are three ingredients necessary to form lasting relationships. “Shared interests, shared experiences and repeated, unplanned interactions are all necessary in order for a real friendship to last,” he says. As founder of the community-driven dance party Body// Talk, he’s on a mission to foster friendships orlandoweekly.com

based on radical self-expression, cultural identity and a shared love for local music. Hailing from Brazil, where he says spontaneous dancing, socializing and drinking is interwoven into the fabric of everyday life, Santos started the meet-up as an outlet to perform his music. “I was trying to re-create the feeling of a house party in a nontraditional venue.” What began in the Space (a now-defunct DIY venue, see page 33) in June 2013 before moving to the Milk District now happens on the second Saturday of every month and is guided by Santos’ formula for creating a “highly connective environment.” “We use our space to bring people close together. We have separate stations for talking and social interaction as well as multiple activities at each event.” Body//Talk includes dancing, live performances, body painting and prompts that foster social interaction. “The key is to have multiple ways for people to connect and be heard,” he says. “We want to create a transformational experience. We want the world to hear our collective roar.” CONTINUED ON PaGe 15

SAVE THE WORLD Meet-ups are also serving as a conduit to social action. The Hive, founded in 2013 by local social entrepreneurs Chris Castro and Clayton Ferrara, is a community think tank and an organizing platform for climate activists to address global environmental challenges. Described as a “speakeasy for innovation,” the Hive meets in East End Market on the first Wednesday of every month. “We wanted to create a model for incubating environmental solutions by crowdsourcing ideas from within the community,” Castro says. Each iteration features guest presentations by civic and community leaders on topics such as energy, water, food, waste and ecology. Meetings are concluded with group brainstorm sessions during which attendees draft and propose ideas that address a global issue on a local level. The local organic farming project Fleet Farming is just one example of dozens of sustainability programs to come out of these sessions. What began as an offshoot from a project to help the University of Central Florida meet its climate action goals is now a global movement with chapters meeting up as far

away as Hawaii and Uganda. Castro says what makes his meet-up so successful is that he focuses on participant interaction and engagement above all else. “The people who attend the Hive are all interested in helping to solve environmental problems in their community and beyond,” he says. “They want to be involved and to make a difference. The Hive is all about the cross-pollination of ideas.”

ROLL WITH IT Some people are simply interested in experiencing Orlando’s great cultural assets in a new way, just as entrepreneur and activist Sarah Peerani was when she moved back to the city. Wanting to share her passion for bikes and public transportation with friends, she decided to organize a group of people together for a pub crawl by way of SunRail, the new commuter train. Thus, Orlando Conductor Crawls was born. “It’s hard to try new things when you’re not part of a group,” she says. “I want to give people something to be part of.” She did the same thing with the Orlando bike share program, Juice Bicycles, to create Orlando Bike Tours. She leads friends and strangers to her favorite haunts or to new places she’s always wanted to try. Previous CONTINUED ON PaGe 16

tour itineraries include some of the area’s best coffee shops, tapas restaurants and burger joints. “I wouldn’t plan a tour I wouldn’t go on,” she says. “Plus, it helps you see the city in a whole new way.”

Big minds and hearts also frequent a series called Nerd Nite. Headquartered in A Comic Shop’s watering hole, the Geek Easy, Nerd Nite is described as a place for thinking and drinking. Recurring monthly on second Thursdays, the meet-up seeks to create a relaxed atmosphere where anyone who is overtly passionate about something can congregate to share and learn. One of 98 around the globe, Orlando’s first Nerd Nite chapter was kicked off on Pi Day, March 14 (3.14) of 2013. Since then, 28 consecutive Nerd Nites have fostered lively debates, featured dozens of guest presenters and possibly been responsible for many new romantic relationships. “You’re free to get as awkward as you want,” said leader of the proceedings Ricardo Williams – a self-described movie, comic and Bruce Springsteen nerd – before kicking off a monthly round of Nerdy Speed Dating, a casual, no-nametag offshoot of Nerd Nite that takes place every third Saturday. “This is a safe space to appreciate everyone for who they are.” His mission is to foster authentic connections by giving people something to talk about based on the theme and presentations. “When you have a topic, you can start a conversation,” he says. “That can lead to an authentic relationship.” Attendees like Andrew Walton understand the value of the environment. “I travel for work, so it’s hard for me to maintain a network of friends in Orlando. As an engineer, I’m much better at thermodynamics than social dynamics.” He says he attends meet-ups like Nerd Nite because it allows him to still be social even when out by himself. “I’ve always been a little shy, but here I feel comfortable meeting people and having a good time.” arts@orlandoweekly.com

“People in Orlando are especially hungry for experiences that are real, homegrown and local, unlike the corporate entertainment of theme parks and chain restaurants,” says Eddie Selover, organizer and host of the Orlando chapter of the thoughtprovoking event PechaKucha Night. “PechaKucha Night resonates so deeply because people are increasingly longing to have positive interactions with each other in person, and especially to hear other people’s stories.” He says PechaKucha doesn’t fit the traditional meet-up mold. For those who aren’t in the know, PechaKucha is an entertainment event featuring simple presentations consisting of 20 images with 20 seconds per image. First held in Tokyo in February 2003, the event draws its name from the Japanese term for “chitchat.” While a traditional meet-up is based on people who have a single interest wanting to get together, PechaKucha Night makes a deliberate attempt to gather presentations on very diverse topics. “The audience cuts across gender and demographics,” he says. “If they have anything in common, it’s that they’re smart and curious, and they’re looking to connect. Big minds, big hearts. That’s what we get every time.”

Ladies of Eola Heights

BY SETH KUBERSKY

PHOTO cOUrTesY Of KennY HOward

Kenny Howard, perhaps the hardest-working director in Orlando at the moment, catches us up on his recent projects The last time we saw the squabbling Locksdale sisters of Michael Wanzie’s Ladies of Eola Heights, they seemed to have settled their differences in the wake of their abusive dad’s death. But it looks like Pearl (Beth Marshall), Opal (Peg O’Keef) and Ruby (Blue Star) couldn’t stay civil for long, as a public punch-up has led the trio to be sentenced to a dozen hilarious sessions of Court Ordered Therapy under neurotic psychiatrist Dr. Burroughs (Kevin Kelly). Wanzie’s characters were originally designed as drag caricatures, but these actresses – three of the brightest gems in Orlando theater – once again mine unexpected emotional depth from their roles between the broad laughs. The plot leans less toward propulsive action than past revelations; happily, Sam Singhaus (the only returning cast member from the original production) is on hand to lip-sync Drowsy Chaperone ditties as a one-person Greek chorus, clinching the play’s climactic discovery. If you enjoyed the prequel, you won’t want to miss this very funny follow-up; and if you missed the first episode at the Abbey last summer, highlights are screened pre-show (and are viewable online) to help catch up. Wanzie’s Court-Ordered Therapy: Ladies of Eola Heights Continued is directed by Kenny Howard, who helmed the original productions of all four installments starting

more than a decade ago. He comes back to the Locksdales straight from staging The Flick, a pensive Pulitzer Prize-winner that’s as different from Eola in pacing and tone as possible, and heads next into Heathers: The Musical, which follows The Flick as only the second major local production to be mounted at the new Dr. Phillips Center’s Alexis & Jim Pugh Theater. That may make Howard the hardest-working director in Orlando at the moment, so I’m lucky he found 15 minutes after the opening night of Court Ordered Therapy to catch me up on his recent projects. Howard began by praising his cast. “It’s like a family reunion meets an SNL skit meets a Lifetime Television movie,” he says, crediting Florida Theatrical Association, Gen Y producer Aaron Safer and assistant director Chris Yakubchik for supporting his strenuous schedule. When I commented on Therapy’s in-the-round presentation, which places the actors in the middle of the audience instead of on the stage (an unusual and unnervingly intimate choice for the Abbey), Howard confessed, “To be honest, the initial choice was selfish on my part. I had just seen Fun Home [a Broadway show staged in the round] and I wanted to play in it. … It just got inside my head. Michael was at first not keen on the idea [but] I couldn’t let it go,” he admits. “I said, ‘Just give me two days and come and see, and if you don’t like it, I’ll reblock it.’ He sat down, we started the run, we were 10 minutes in and he’s like, ‘I love it!’” Though Eola and The Flick exist in opposite universes, they share Howard’s directorial signature: an appreciation for pauses and a willingness (sometimes frustrating, but often fascinating) to dwell in the transitions between scenes. Silence “is

something I’ve always been interested in,” Howard acknowledges. “Even Michael after seeing the first run [of Eola Eola] was like, ‘I can see The Flick all over this.’ “I always tell actors I’m so interested in the action between the lines. If there’s a moment that I feel that warrants that, I’m all about exploring those silences. … I’ve always thought that silence is one of the most powerful tools for the stage.” One thing Howard isn’t silent about is his love of working in local theater. “I came back to Orlando to direct. … I went to New York to hone my directing skills and got an opportunity to do that, but then fell into a very different line of work producing [Broadway shows], and I came back just wanting to have the opportunity to make art.” And though he’s a big booster of the Abbey as a theater space, he also isn’t quiet about his excitement to return to the Pugh at Dr. Phillips. “The space is fantastic. … They treat you very, very well there, and they have so many bells and whistles it’s incredible.” He also expresses pride in tweaking the Center’s pristine image with the aid of designer Bonnie Sprung, whose Flick set had patrons “walk into this brandspanking-new theater, having this dirty, litter-filled theater looking back at you.” However, as the first local director of a multi-week run in the space, Howard experienced some bumps, hopefully for the benefit of future artists: “Although it became extremely efficient, because we were the first one that wasn’t just coming in for an overnight, it was a little bit of a learning curve as to what a sit-down production does.” Howard’s parting advice to other producers eyeing the Pugh? “Two words come to mind: commercial viability.” skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

The bad news: Barnie’s CoffeeKitchen in Winter Park has stopped its muchlauded Friday-and-Saturday dinner service. The good news: Chef Camilo Velasco and his talented staff will serve breakfast and lunch Monday-Saturday, and brunch on Sundays until 6 p.m. Capa at the Four Seasons Resort is bringing in small batches of A5 Miyazaki Wagyu beef from Japan, 15 pounds at a time. Cost for the real-deal premium Japanese beef is $18 per ounce. That’s right, per ounce. Overseeing his restaurant empire has kept chef James Petrakis busy over the past couple of years, but as of last week, he returns to Ravenous Pig’s kitchen each Monday for Chef James’ Monday Night Dinners. Petrakis’ other resto – Cask & Larder – has launched Seafood Saturday the third Saturday of every month, featuring seasonal seafood and drink specials. And come August, breakfast will be served at Swine & Sons, the third Petrakis baby, from 7-11 a.m. Monday-Friday. Look for breakfast sandwiches and various baked goods.

xpectations were high when word came that Bernard Caramouche (former culinary director of Emeril’s Orlando) and Larry Sinibaldi (former executive chef at the Palm Restaurant) were joining forces to open Two Chefs Seafood Oyster Bar in downtown Orlando. The fact that it was to be situated in the lesser-known North Quarter and in a space recently vacated by a coffee shop certainly didn’t seem to matter – these two highly lauded culinarians were expected to impress, and impress big. At first blush, however, I was somewhat underwhelmed. With Bond-villain names like Caramouche and Sinibaldi, I would’ve expected them to swiftly eradicate bad behavior like idle chitchat by the hostess and waitstaff at the counter fronting the open kitchen. Luckily, that was the only real negative we experienced in a night full of positives. Sure, the “habanero red sauce” served with our Connecticut Blue Points tasted more like Texas Pete (the distinct flavor of the habañero pepper was absent), but the

baked oysters on the half shell ($14) made an ideal prelude to the kitchen’s NOLAinspired dishes. And while the plating of the jumbo lump crab cake ($12) wasn’t noteworthy, the sweetness of the delicately held round was, as was the serving of house-pickled vegetables and the truffle mustard sauce. The no-fuss plating seems to underscore the restaurant’s distinctly casual mien – the main dining room is more high-school cafeteria than Commander’s Palace, but try not to judge this resto by its decor. Judge it by its fried chicken ($12) instead. Did the crackling skin elicit hearty grunts of approval? Did the flesh induce in us a lubricious haze? Were our digits licked clean of crunchy, seasoned residue? Yes, yes and oh hell yes. The basket came with a side of chef Larry’s homemade bread-and-butter pickles, but that side portion wasn’t enough. We demanded more, and the poor server, startled by our rapacious eyes, dutifully obliged. Bottom line: You likely won’t find a fried bird done any better than it is here. The blackened flounder ($24), on the other hand, was a tad dry and suffered from a heavy seasoning, but it was the bed of kale, crab, corn and cherry tomato on which it rested that I took issue with – too

many competing textures and flavors, plus I don’t like getting bits of crab mixed in with my fish. I’d rather they keep it as a side, or remove the crab and drop the price of the dish. A wonderful roasted duck hash ($12) topped with a fried egg and drizzled with truffle oil brought us back to a more ravenous realm. It’s a starter, but a filling one. If you’re the sort who revels in moaning loudly at eating establishments, order that hash with a side of the seriously stellar charred okra ($5), then let those smoked ladyfingers do all the talking. Biting into the banana bread pudding ($10) elicited the sort of expletives only a truly superlative dessert can rouse. The F-bombs flew; uncouth utterances of “F me,” “Holy F” and “F-ing F!” were dropped as we forked bites of praline cheesecake ($12) into our yaps. Clearly pastry chef Amy Gilbert has a gift, and we totally expect her to open her own bakery one day. In the meantime, we expect Gilbert, Caramouche and Sinibaldi to hone and improve their worthy eatery. No doubt the neighborhood will continue to grow, and I’m all for them making this sector of the city more French Quarter than North Quarter.

Jumping the shark Sharknado 3 brings production jobs to Central Florida By Ca meron m ei er SHARKNADO 3 9 p.m. Wednesday, July 22 | SyFy Network

F

or those craving classic cinema, the title of the latest Sharknado movie – Oh Hell No! – seems appropriate. But for economically minded advocates of Florida film production, the new television movie is more a case of “yes, please!” Sharknado 3, airing July 22 on SyFy, was shot partially in Orlando, over eight days in February. It filmed at Universal Studios, and therefore didn’t have quite the economic impact of Disney’s Tomorrowland, which filmed in many local spots. But it was still warmly welcomed, particularly in light of the Florida Legislature’s failure to pass tax incentives for film production. The first Sharknado aired in 2013, and despite its similarity to other “Z-movies” 28

that the Asylum production company had made for SyFy, it managed to rise above the rest, thanks to its campy appeal. And when the second installment, in 2014, partially abandoned the laughably bad dramatic formula and turned toward spoof, it smashed the channel’s viewership record, drawing an audience of 3.9 million. It was only a matter of time before a third one was planned, and according to director Anthony C. Ferrante, Orlando was the logical choice for both the setting and shooting location. “The first two movies, we exploited New York and L.A.,” Ferrante says. “We wanted to do a Washington, D.C., thing for [this film’s] opening, then we wanted to get them, like, over the whole East Coast to give them a longer journey, and we thought Orlando would be a great place because it offered a lot of great things. And we also had the synergy of the [Universal

Studios] park because SyFy is owned by NBC Universal. “We were told we’d be able to shoot at the parks and utilize all the stuff, with set pieces galore,” Ferrante says, adding that the backlot doubled for the nation’s capital in at least one scene. “There’s so much that this place offers, and it’s also different [from the other films]. We went from sunny California to cold New York to tropical Orlando. “[Orlando has been] so productionfriendly, [which is important] because these Sharknado movies are shot very quickly. We have 18 days to [shoot]. We’re shooting half of it here and half of it in L.A., with some in Washington … and by June [four months later], we [had] to deliver” the completed film. In Sharknado 3, Tara Reid (April), Ian Ziering (Fin) and Florida’s own Cassie Scerbo (Nova) are again battling storms of sharks but are joined by a host of newcomers who threaten to raise the camp value to heretofore unimagined levels. There’s David Hasselhoff as Fin’s dad, Bo Derek as April’s mom, Mark Cuban and Ann Coulter as U.S. president and vice president, Penn and Teller, Jerry Springer, Cindy Margolis,

Michele Bachmann, Anthony Weiner, Kathie Lee Gifford and even locals such as Michael Winslow and NSYNC’s Chris Kirkpatrick. And then there’s the plot – penned again by Thunder Levin – which involves a shark storm so powerful that only a trip into space will stop it. So does all this ridiculousness happen by accident or is it carefully calculated? Though the answer is probably a bit of both, Asylum’s recent success seems more a product of dumb luck. I was granted exclusive access to the set during filming, and though the entire crew was more than accommodating – with actor Chad Ochocinco jokingly offering to smoke weed with me – the process was not exactly the height of professionalism thanks to the rushed schedule, limited budget and last-minute planning. For instance, when I spoke with Ferrante during shooting, he still wasn’t sure of his locations. And the directions shouted to Ziering – in a production-facilities room doubling as a NASA control center – seemed to sum up the silliness: “[You’re] getting prepped for a last-minute space flight! The world is about to end!”

Despite those eccentricities – and a crew strike during filming in Los Angeles – Asylum has stumbled upon a business formula that works. In the process, they’ve created the most profitable original series in SyFy’s history. And that’s good news for the local crew and catering staff, who were thankful for jobs. Orlando’s Steven Shea was among the grateful. Although the main production crew was from Los Angeles, Asylum used about a dozen locals like Shea for minor production jobs. “When the rumor popped up that they were going to be shooting in town, I was excited,” Shea says. “I basically had a couple of people I knew that ended up getting my name in front of the right people. And I got hired on to manage and produce the EPK – electronic press kit – which is basically like the behind-the-scenes [video] of the shooting here in Florida. … It was one of the best productions I’ve worked on in the state.” Jen Vargas, who serves on Film Florida’s marketing committee and on the Florida board of Women in Film and Television, shares Shea’s enthusiasm for this production but is disheartened by the Legislature’s inaction. “This is the third consecutive year where Florida’s Legislature has not included funding for our film, TV, commercial and digital-media industries,” she says. “It’s

disappointing and disheartening for all of us. With other states such as Georgia and Louisiana consistently thriving with business [because of tax incentives], it’s quite difficult for me personally to understand why Florida can’t do the same. “According to Film Florida, for every dollar the state invests in our tax-credit program, upwards of $5 is spent here at home. A production could spend, on average, $125,000 per day, [but without the tax incentives] there’s no financial advantage to shoot here,” Vargas says. “Local filmmakers and production personnel have been actively taking work out of state, even relocating, for the last couple of years.” Shea, who was voted Best Local Filmmaker in last year’s Orlando Weekly Best of Orlando readers poll, is among the departing. “[My family and I] are planning on leaving, planning on taking off to Los Angeles,” he says, adding that more than 20 of his filmmaking friends have left in the last six months, most bound for Georgia. “It’s not conducive to [a filmmaking career] to stay here. There’s just not enough work to go around.” But it’s not all bad news. At least we get to see the City Beautiful partially destroyed this week by a torrential downpour of enormous, toothy fish. Hey, maybe the sharks can target the Tallahassee lawmakers in Sharknado 4. feedback@orlandoweekly.com

Opening this week Dark Was the Night Back in the good old ’70s, you could count on horror movies like Prophecy to demonstrate that environmental devastation is an affront to traditions too ancient for us to even know about. The fact that Prophecy also happened to be a piece of shit doesn’t negate the point – which is why, after all these years, we can still get a Dark Was the Night, in which the activities of a bunch of loggers call up a mysterious and lethal entity. This is a genre I just can’t get enough of, frankly; I hope Dirty Coal and Keystone Deathline are in the works right now. (NR) Paper Towns As a recently divorced middle-ager, I haven’t a clue about modern dating etiquette – so you betcha that scene in Trainwreck about the pathology of guys who call the next day scared the living bejabbers outta me. So don’t ask me what to make of Paper Towns, a literary adaptation in which a chick’s idea of fun is to vanish utterly and then have her suitor follow judiciously pitched clues to track her down. Christ, is this the gauntlet us guys have to run nowadays? Just because the Riddler is my favorite character in all of fiction doesn’t mean I want to Grindr his skinny ass.

But, uh … Jean is French! So he can’t call les dibs! Our country, our rules, Frenchy. Hope you had a nice Bastille Day. (PG-13) Southpaw Here’s one you might hear when you’re playing bar trivia six years from now: “What role was created for Eminem but ultimately went to Jake Gyllenhaal?” Note to your future self: It isn’t Jack Twist – but boy how much fun would that have been? The correct answer is Southpaw’s title character, a junior middleweight boxer trying to rebuild his illustrious career after a series of devastating personal blows. (But be careful: The best answer to “Who had to rebuild his illustrious career after a series of devastating personal blows?” will actually be Elmo.) (R) The Vatican Tapes A young woman becomes possessed by the devil after visiting the emergency room for a cut finger. Isn’t this the sort of thing Obamacare was supposed to prevent?

Top 10 lamest excuses people use to avoid paying the door guy at Will’s Pub By Ashley BelAnger

T

he Cheers-like atmosphere of Will’s Pub at times instills in its devoted patrons an overextended sense of “This is my bar” or “I keep this place alive.” Many of these types believe themselves above the cover owed at the door when the dive doubles as a concert venue, because they’re regulars. And regulars don’t need to check a schedule before they head to “the bar” for “one drink.” Maybe these worn souls also play shows there and have for years. Maybe it’s been decades. (Will’s Pub celebrates 20 years in September.) Maybe they really are friends with the owner, the amiable Will Walker, who until recently could frequently be found knocking ’em back and carousing with the customers. Maybe a lot of things people spout to subvert “the door guy” are true. But maybe we’re all sick of hearing it. Supporting Will’s Pub or any venue means supporting the bands that support the venue. There’s a reason why Will’s business model includes live entertainment. You might not be there for the show, but there would be no “there” without the show. If Will’s Pub was just a pub, it wouldn’t be your favorite bar. It’s a scene, not a setting. And that’s why you want to be inside. I reached out to a Will’s Pub door guy, comedian and musician Larry Fulford, to hear what lines get used the most while he’s manning the entry during concerts. Here is his list of the top 10 lamest excuses people use to get in the door and some of his (possibly imaginary) responses; you can catch Fulford’s stand-up next at Bonkerz Comedy Club at Rosen Plaza at 8 p.m. July 30.

2. “We didn’t know there was anything going on tonight.” (Apparently no smartphone/ Internet.) 32

4. “I’m friends with [bar owner, sound guy, bartender].” 5. “Awh, come on, man, I play here all the time.” (Super. Would you like me to let everybody into your shows for free, too?) 6. “SEVEN dollars?!? Would you take five?” (Because $2 will break you.) 7. “It’s my birthday.” (Super. Your friend should pay your cover for your birthday. Happy birthday.) (To be fair, I’ve let birthday folks in before. I’m not completely heartless.) 8. “I don’t have any cash.” Door guy: “I can hold your ID while you run to the ATM inside.” “...” 9. “Is there a cover?” Door guy: “Yeah, five bucks.” “Even if we’re not gonna listen to the bands?” 10. And, to date, my alltime favorite response was, “THIRTEEN DOLLARS?! WHO’S PLAYING, JESUS?!” (As in, is Jesus playing? Because apparently Jesus would be a $13 ticket.) abelanger@orlandoweekly.com

1. “We were just gonna go in for one drink.” (Never to be seen again.)

For now, you could head to orlandoweekly. com to check out two live videos featuring two songs from Natural Wonders, “Red Rock” and “Blackwater.” This is old news by now for clued-in community members, but the DIY venue known as the Space (with the necessary addendum “located above Anthony’s Pizza”) officially ceased operating as a venue over Fourth of July weekend. Now’s a good time to delicately recall the vital service the venue played (while functioning in its outside-the-box ways) as an alternative venue with a less complicated calendar than official venues. But that drily discounts the tender feelings the Space conjured (like a big sweaty hug from a lovable lug), so I’d like to specifically add these thanks to the Space and its holders. Thanks for ...

‘SPACE TRIBUTE’ BY ASHLEY BELANGER

• giving new bands a place to press pedals for the first time. • breaking barriers between audience and artist. • inviting rad out-of-town bands for surprise shows. • opening doors for weirdo concepts and art shows that would not have been welcomed elsewhere. • providing a safe space where people could positively comment on what’s wrong in this world. • being something right in this world. The loss of the Space will be mourned for likely longer than the venue’s short-spanned life, but the crazy-diamond minds who sought to inhabit it during that time will assuredly find new environments to continue the positive momentum the Space drummed up for local bands and artists (and plenty of good folks trying to figure out how they fit in, too). although Is It over yet’s latest endeavor, Time Waste Management, is skewed more toward the zine-making and screenprinting side of the collective’s heart, many of IIOY’s members are in bands (False Punk, Neat Freak, more) and we’re curious if their effort to take over the Sister Space will lead to more cool cross-culture with the music and art scenes (rad flyers, event collabs, album art, etc.).

You guys really should be following

our native and underground scenes, and summer is the perfect time to do that. The big national tours plummet in quality here until the autumn when they stampede through. Since the local and frontier circuits don’t sleep like that, weeks like this happen – pulsing with discovery.

The BeaT

Sarasota twin-fronted band Good Graeff just celebrated the fresh drop of their new EP Good Job Go with a typically lively performance of fresh-faced, folkedged indie pop at their Orlando release event (July 16, Will’s Pub). Even with their ready combination of talent, marketability and tireless road dogging, they haven’t exactly broken out yet. But hopefully this sparkling record will hasten that. Local support was Someday River, the band formerly known as Bellows. The long journey from Bellows to Someday River was a slow honing of what began as a stylistically indiscriminate sprawl. Over time, they’ve pared things down considerably to arrive at their current airy pop rock sound. One foot in the indie world with touches like deep, swimming reverb and the other in soft-core, hippie-lite grooves, contradiction still persists in their recipe. But some pleasant melodies are squeezed between those strange bedfellows. Straight up mugging the night, however, was Savannah band Coeds. First acts are supposed to warm things up, but these guys and girl made their Orlando debut by lighting the wick and shooting off like a Roman candle. Braiding the wild, early

COEDS

Coeds made their Orlando debut by lighting the wick and shooting off like a Roman candle. roots of rock & roll with doo-wop traces and a hearty garage scuff, they have a turbocharged vintage aesthetic like the Detroit Cobras, only with more kick. They’re a rubber-burning unit to be sure, but the hard, raw voice of frontwoman Anna Chandler is an absolute weapon. Although she’s already good on the male-female trades with co-front Phillip Reynolds Price (ex-An Albatross), her feral soul claws like a tiger when given full rein. That doesn’t happen nearly enough, but when it does, it’ll knock you down. Most fresh, unfamiliar openers get little attention unless it’s something especially pulse-perking. During the course of Coeds’ blazing set, however, the room went from a sprinkle of bodies to a full, demonstrative crowd. Yes: Coeds, look ’em up already. Another band to keep an eagle eye on is Miami’s Plastic Pinks, who ripped some red-hot action later that night right up the street (St. Matthew’s Tavern). An onslaught by committee, this full-gang motion machine is a juggernaut of garage-punk uproar and pure physical joy. The band rages with both attack and celebration while singer June Summer sweats the kind of physical charisma usually reserved for

party metal. And it torched the spot. To kick off their East Coast tour, Orlando’s the Wilderness (July 15, Will’s Pub) performed a solid set of their lush indie rock. Although awash in psych pastels, their sound has a hefty core of melody and sonic substance. It’s a combination of pretty melodies and big horizon that’s got mainstream potential, for what that’s worth. Speaking of, local opening act Reverist also has good mass appeal, tons of it. Their incredibly likeable piano-propelled indie pop is aloft with soaring melodies and sweeping electronic sheen. For a duo, it’s a suprisingly complete package that has songwriting fundamentals superior to many of their more popular contemporaries. And as this performance proved, their music can lift a room and get the bodies moving. As if these achievements weren’t enough, Reverist is the brainchild and creative outlet of local medical doctor Omar Qazi. Most of us in the creative community have day jobs and all, but damn. Anyone else feeling like a bit of a bum right about now? Opener Pathos, Pathos is a local indie rock act that’s been coming up in the scene over the past year or so. Situated somewhere between Ben Gibbard’s sensitivity and Vampire Weekend’s effervescence, they’re unflinchingly twee. What saves them from testing the nerves, however, is their pure charm and even purer sense of melody. If their recordings are a little too dainty for you, try ’em on live where they’re notably more persuasive. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Luca Lush MUSIC Versatile New York producer Luca Lush could be a snot about his impressive Soundcloud rise, which saw him rapidly booked to a standout SXSW showcase and performing alongside artists whom he previously only studied with scholarly awe. But he’s too down-to-earth for that. Obsessively following electronic music naturally led the bedroom producer to Soundcloud daily, and there he began dropping house music with a dedication toward creating a focused, unique voice in an online realm largely dominated by loose thoughts. His smart approach worked for him, and notably, he’s just begun experimenting with his own vocals, which could easily add a fresh identifying layer to his more subtle production signifiers (unusual veers that feel punk-informed or else buck electronic trends in a very punk way). This spirit is also rumored to come out in his performances, featuring a lot of assertive crowd work, so don’t expect to just chill. – Ashley Belanger

MUSIC C+C Music Factory – which actually stands for “Cookies and Cream,” not the last names of the two founding members (Clivillés and Cole) – haven’t released anything since 1995. Nothing. Not a damn thing. And, honestly, nobody cares. “Things That Make You Go Hmmm” is such an everlasting club heater, people will be using that phrase as a hashtag long after your booty is particulate dust in the wind. We don’t need anything new from CCMF. Their entire back catalog is timeless (well, three or four songs at least). When they dropped the legendary single “Everybody Dance Now,” it wasn’t a suggestion, it was a worldwide dance command. We all know if you hear those piercing words at the club, people who typically hate dancing will reluctantly get on the dance floor and “sweat till they bleed.” it happens.

Downtown boys Back in March, rhode island’s Downtown Boys came through and impressed as an opener for label mates Screaming Females at the Social. Though the hard-left punk-rock rainbow coalition showed some pretty notable live fire then, this return has all the kindling for a much more intense, sweaty and pure experience. First, they’re now touring on the sails of an acclaimed debut LP (Full Communism) on quality Jersey imprint Don Giovanni. Second, they’ll be going full torque as the headliner this time at the Space Station, a newish DiY venue that’s much more suited to their edge and ethos. What was already a physical vortex of politics and partying at a pro indie-rock establishment should be total and maximum release in a DiY zone. The local openers are also notable and the concert wraps at 10 p.m. in observance of the noise ordinance, so show up early. – Bao Le-Huu MUSIC

Salad Days: A Decade of Punk in Washington, DC When a scene naturally springs around you, it sprays and showers everything in its midst until it loses its luster and normalizes, or else self-implodes. The DIY punk scene depicted in new music documentary Salad Days: A Decade of Punk in Washington, DC shows massively influential bands like Bad Brains, Fugazi, Minor Threat and more at their ripest period of raw punk performance between 1980 and 1990. It was an organic movement empowered by its own hardcore thrust before major labels got to meddling with what it means to sell music (and radios Chinese-water-tortured us with generic alternative rock blah). Featuring interviews with some of music’s most simultaneously insightful and inciting figures (Henry Rollins, Thurston Moore, Fred Armisen, etc.), this free screening packs intrigue aplenty just with the film. Bonus: Show up early to watch a Skype interview with director Scott Crawford and revisit a slew of classic punk rock music videos. – Ashley Belanger

B y D A N S AVA G E My wife and I have been together for more than 10 years, practicing some kind of nonmonogamy for more than seven. We tried different things – open, dating others, FWBs – but after a bi threesome with another guy a year ago, we knew that was our thing. For a while, everything was great, but roughly a month after that defining threesome, I came down with a bad case of mono. In a couple of months, we resumed our bi sexdates, and I noticed I had a hard time getting horny and even had a hard time getting (and staying) hard. More foreplay was needed and fewer distractions were acceptable. I even resorted to pharmaceutical help. We assumed I was still recovering and that diet and exercise would make it all better. Then I had a work-related crisis and blamed stress from that, since things didn’t really change, and finally in March I got shipped off to a war zone. I still don’t have the drive I had a year ago. My brothers-inarms ogle every female who happens to be around, and sometimes they hook up even though they’re not in open relationships – unlike me, who is in one but has no desire to hook up with anyone. I rarely masturbate these days, and if I do, I need sexts and naughty pictures from my wife (and our FWB) to get in the mood. I just recently started to get morning wood again. I may have to accept the fact that I’m just getting older and this is how my libido is gonna be from now on. I’m turning 30 in a few weeks. What are the chances that this is just an unlucky chain of events, and when this is over, I could go back to being my old horny self? Currently Occupied Mostly By Arms Though

I asked a doctor – dr. Barak Gaster, a physician at the University of Washington and a regular (if sometimes mortified) guest expert around here whether mono could diminish a guy’s libido and his ability to stay hard for nearly a year. “Mono is a viral illness for which there is no real treatment other than the tincture of time,” says Dr. Gaster. “Mono is a pretty insidious illness in that it typically causes really severe fatigue, which can linger for a long time. Other common symptoms are muscle and joint aches.” Could fatigue and aches still be affecting mood and interest in sex? “They could,” says Dr. Gaster. “It would not be typical, but they could. The duration of mono symptoms is typically around three months, but they can persist to some degree for one to two years in more severe cases. None of the effects of mono are typically considered ‘permanent.’ So it would be important to reassure someone that the effects of mono that are still present after 12 to 18 months could still likely resolve.” You came down with mono less than a year ago, COMBAT, so you’re still in that one-to-two-year symptoms-could-persist window. You also dealt with a work-related crisis before being shipped off to a combat zone – that sounds extremely stressful, and not everyone reacts to stress the same way. The stress of being in a combat zone could make the guys around you horny while having the opposite effect on you. Be reassured, like the doctor said, that things will most likely right themselves in another six to 12 months. The fact that morning wood is returning seems like a good sign, as is the effect a few dirty texts has on your dick.

My wife is a submissive. I’m not a natural Dom, but I’ve become more comfortable assuming the role. Recently, she stopped hormonal birth control, and her sex drive and interest in capitalS Submission kicked into high gear. She joined FetLife and went to her first munch a couple of weeks ago. She’s not shopping for a Dom. She’s looking to socialize, discuss this part of herself and not feel like such a freak. She thought she hit it off with a few folks but now realizes she may have been sending mixed signals. The munch was advertised as casual, but she says most left that night with a hookup or play plans. One man in particular seems to read her interest in friendship as sexual. How can she find a group of kinksters who will socialize and share their experiences without assuming her presence as an unaccompanied submissive female is an invitation to fuck? Married, Optimally Nookied, Only Need Advice

The people your wife met at that munch are kinksters, not psychics. If she’s not interested in playing with anyone other than her spouse, all she has to do is say so. Munches are informal meetups where kinky people get together without the pressures or expectations of a play party. Your wife’s presence at a munch is not an invitation to fuck, but someone who respectfully expresses an interest in playing isn’t guilty of bending Emily Post over a bondage bench with the intent to fuck her ass. Most people who go to munches are open to play, but those who aren’t are welcome. Your wife just needs to let her new friends know she’s interested only in socializing. You could help by accompanying her to the next munch. I’m a 24-year-old heterosexual female. I discovered that my boyfriend still had an online dating profile up and was checking it regularly. We had a calm discussion about it, and he assured me that he just found the messages he got flattering and offered to take it down. I told him if that’s all he was doing, then there was no reason he couldn’t have those ego boosts and a monogamous relationship with me, too. Had I not been such an avid reader of your column, Dan, that discussion would’ve gone very differently. And, really, it’s not like he was going to forget that other women existed – nor would I want him to. Though I may look back on this and cringe, right now we’re in a great place. We have fun and are sexually compatible and have really excellent conversations. Thank you! His Answer Perfectly Plausible, Yes?

I enjoy letters like HaPPy’s because it’s nice to be reminded that not everyone is cheating or being cheated on, miserably single and looking to get into a relationship or trapped in a miserable couple and looking to get out, kinky and stuck with a vanilla partner or vanilla and stuck with a kinky one. Some people are doing just fine. And yes, I do think your boyfriend’s answer is perfectly plausible – some people are on dating apps for the ego boosts alone (they’re called “time wasters”) – and here’s hoping it’s totally truthful as well. On the Lovecast, Dan speaks with author Joan Price about sex for the senior set: savagelovecast.com.

By EMily FlaKE

inspire you most in the coming weeks. Are you up for the challenge? If so, grapple with your deepest pain. Make a fierce effort to both heal it and be motivated by it. At the same time, identify your brightest hope and take a decisive step toward fulfilling it.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) The Latin motto “carpe diem” shouldn’t be translated as “seize the day!” says author Nicholson Baker. It’s not a battle cry exhorting you to, “Freaking grab the day in your fist like a burger at a fairground and take a big chomping bite out of it.” The proper translation, according to Baker, is “pluck the day.” In other words, “You should gently pull on the day’s stem, as if it were a wildflower, holding it with all the practiced care of your thumb and the side of your finger, which knows how to not crush easily crushed things – so that the day’s stem undergoes increasing tension and draws to a tightness, and then snaps softly away at its weakest point, and the flower is released in your hand.” Keep that in mind. I understand you are often tempted to seize rather than pluck, but these days plucking is the preferable approach. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) When I talk about “The Greatest Story Never Told,” I’m not referring to the documentary film about singer Lana Del Rey or the debut album of the rap artist Saigon or any other cultural artifact. I am, instead, referring to a part of your past that you have never owned and understood … a phase from the old days that you have partially suppressed … an intense set of memories you have not fully integrated. I say it’s time for you to deal with this shadow. You’re finally ready to acknowledge it and treasure it as a crucial thread in the drama of your hero’s journey. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) The ancient Greek philosopher Thales is credited as being one of the earliest mathematicians and scientists. He was a deep thinker whose thirst for knowledge was hard to quench. Funny story: Once he went out at night for a walk. Gazing intently up at the sky, he contemplated the mysteries of the stars. Oops! He didn’t watch where he was going, and fell down into a well. He was OK, but embarrassed. Let’s make him your antirole model. I would love to encourage you to unleash your lust to be informed, educated and inspired – but only if you watch where you’re going. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Charles Darwin is best known for his book The Origin of Species, which contains his seminal ideas about evolutionary biology. But while he was still alive, his bestseller was The Formation of Vegetable Mould Through the Action of Worms. The painstaking result of over 40 years’ worth of research, it is a tribute to the noble earthworm and that creature’s crucial role in the health of soil and plants. It provides a different angle on one of Darwin’s central concerns: how small, incremental transformations that take place over extended periods of time can have monumental effects. This also happens to be one of your key themes in the coming months. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A researcher at the University of Amsterdam developed software to read the emotions on faces. He used it to analyze the expression of the woman in Leonardo da Vinci’s famous painting, the Mona Lisa. The results suggest that she is 83 percent happy, 9 percent disgusted, 6 percent fearful and 2 percent angry. Whether or not this assessment is accurate, I appreciate its implication that we humans are rarely filled with a single pure emotion. We often feel a variety of states simultaneously. In this spirit, I have calculated your probable mix for the coming days: 16 percent relieved, 18 percent innocent, 12 percent confused, 22 percent liberated, 23 percent ambitious and 9 percent impatient. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) “What makes you heroic?” asked philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Here’s how he answered himself: “simultaneously going out to meet your highest suffering and your highest hope.” This is an excellent way to sum up the test that would

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Actress and musician Carrie Brownstein was born with five planets in Libra. Those who aren’t conversant with astrology’s mysteries may conclude that she is a connoisseur of elegance and harmony. Even professional stargazers who know how tricky it is to make generalizations might speculate that she is skilled at cultivating balance, attuned to the needs of others, excited by beauty, and adaptive to life’s ceaseless change. So what are we to make of the fact that Brownstein has said, “I really don’t know what to do when my life is not chaotic”? Here’s what I suspect: In her ongoing exertions to thrive on chaos, she is learning how to be a connoisseur of elegance and harmony as she masters the intricacies of being balanced, sensitive to others, thrilled by beauty and adaptive to change. This is important for you to hear about right now. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You’re entering a volatile phase of your cycle. In the coming weeks, you could become a beguiling monster who leaves a confusing mess in your wake. On the other hand, you could activate the full potential of your animal intelligence as you make everything you touch more interesting and soulful. I am, of course, rooting for the latter outcome. Here’s a secret about how to ensure it: Be as ambitious to gain power over your own darkness as you are to gain power over what happens on your turf. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) I’m a big fan of the attitude summed up by the command “Be here now!” The world would be more like a sanctuary and less like a battleground if people focused more on the present moment rather than on memories of the past and fantasies of the future. But in accordance with the astrological omens, you are hereby granted a temporary exemption from the “Be here how!” approach. You have a poetic license to dream and scheme profusely about what you want your life to be like in the future. Your word of power is tomorrow. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A philanthropist offered $100,000 to the Girl Scouts chapter of Western Washington. But there were strings attached. The donor specified that the money couldn’t be used to support transgender girls. The Girl Scouts rejected the gift, declaring their intention to empower every girl “regardless of her gender identity, socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity or sexual orientation.” Do you have that much spunk, Capricorn? Would you turn down aid that would infringe on your integrity? You may be tested soon. Here’s what I suspect: If you are faithful to your deepest values, even if that has a cost, you will ultimately attract an equal blessing that doesn’t require you to sell out. (P.S. The Girl Scouts subsequently launched an Indiegogo campaign that raised more than $300,000.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Consider the possibility of opening your mind, at least briefly, to provocative influences you have closed yourself off from. You may need to refamiliarize yourself with potential resources you have been resisting or ignoring, even if they are problematic. I’m not saying you should blithely welcome them in. There still may be good reasons to keep your distance. But I think it would be wise and healthy for you to update your relationship with them. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Over 10,000 species of mushrooms grow in North America. About 125 of those, or 1.25 percent, are tasty and safe to eat. All the others are unappetizing or poisonous, or else their edibility is in question. By my reckoning, a similar statistical breakdown should apply to the influences that are floating your way. I advise you to focus intently on those very few that you know for a fact are pleasurable and vitalizing. Make yourself unavailable for the rest.
