Shameful statistics My first year teaching I asked my kids to write an autobiography so I could get to know them (“1 out of 17 Orlando children were homeless in 2014,” Sept. 11). That’s how I found out my highest reader was homeless. They were on a waiting list for housing, sleeping in mom’s car and spending most days and evenings and weekends at the public library. She recently came to visit me. She’s a senior in high school and doing well and has grown up to be super-model gorgeous.

Lighting things up Who’s behind the battle over solar power in Florida? BY ERIN SULLI VA N
I
f you listen to how Consumers for Smart Solar tells it, they’re for the little guy – the organization claims to be a “diverse coalition of business, civic and faith-based organizations” that wants to protect people from solar power opportunists. Last week in this same space, we mentioned that the group is spending a lot of time (not to mention money) trying to take down another organization – Floridians for Solar Choice – that’s pushing for a constitutional amendment that would make it legal for businesses to generate and sell up to 2 megawatts of solar power to adjacent properties. Consumers for Smart Solar calls Floridians for Solar Choice a “shady” organization, made up of big businesses that want to take advantage of Florida’s largely untapped solar market, leaving consumers to pick up the tab for the costs of maintaining the power grid – a characterization that Floridians for Solar Choice says is inaccurate, misleading and intentionally confusing. “It’s the oldest political ploy in the book,” says Susan Glickman, Florida director of the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, the nonprofit, nonpartisan organization behind Floridians for Solar Choice. “They’re trying to confuse people.” And, until you find out who’s behind each organization, it is confusing.
Consumers for Smart Solar has put forth its own solar-power constitutional amendment that, on its surface, seems pro-solar. It says that it gives people the “right” to use solar power in the state – something that Chuck O’Neal, first vice president of the League of Women Voters of Florida, says is simply not necessary. “You already have the right to have solar,” he says, adding that the League of Women Voters examined the two organizations and their competing amendments and is backing the one put forth by Floridians for Solar Choice. Consumers for Smart Solar’s amendment, he says, doesn’t really do much of anything, and the organization exists mostly to discredit Floridians for Solar Choice. In fact, he says, the Smart Solar organization is backed not by consumer groups – rather, it’s mostly backed by the state’s utility companies, which have a chokehold on the industry now and will do anything to make sure that measures like the one Floridians for Solar Choice is pushing never see the light of day. According to its critics, Consumers for Smart Solar is a front group for organizations that have an interest in fossil fuels. If you take a look at the organization’s campaign-finance filings, that’s not such a far-fetched notion. The most recent reports indicate that nearly $300,000 of
6

the $799,045 Consumers for Smart Solar has raised has come straight from some of the state’s biggest utility companies: Duke Energy, Florida Power and Light, Gulf Power Company and Tampa Electric. Another $125,000 came from disgraced lobbyist Ralph Reed’s Florida Faith and Freedom Coalition. Reed, you may recall, helped mobilize Christians to assist another disgraced lobbyist, Jack Abramoff, who was sentenced in 2006 to six years in federal prison for mail fraud, tax evasion and attempting to bribe politicians. Another $100,000 was provided by the 60 Plus Association, which receives support and funding from the Koch brothers. The vast majority of the $759,078 pulled in by Floridians for Solar Choice, by contrast, comes primarily from the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy Action Fund, which has pushed for energy reform since its founding. The group is tied to California billionaire environmentalist and philanthropist Tom Steyer, who challenged the Koch brothers earlier this year to a debate on climate change (they declined his invitation). There is no phone number listed at the website of Consumers for Smart Solar. Emails sent through its website did not receive a response; a message left for one
of the organization’s local representatives, consultant Dick Batchelor, was not returned. In a recent opinion piece that ran in the Orlando Sentinel, Batchelor spells out what the Consumers for Smart Solar amendment aims to do: “Our amendment makes it a constitutional right in Florida for individuals and businesses to own or lease solar equipment to generate their own electricity,” he wrote. “Under our smart solar amendment, consumers would retain the ability to sell excess electricity back to the grid.” That’s exactly what you have the ability to do now, although it’s not enshrined in the constitution. So, the tale of two amendments ends like this: One organization (Floridians for Solar Choice) wants to expand solar opportunities in the state; the other (Consumers for Smart Solar) wants to maintain the status quo, because opening the market, even in a small way, to businesses that want to sell solar energy to their neighbors is a direct threat to utility companies’ bottom lines. “Utilities don’t want to sell people less energy,” Glickman says, “any more than McDonald’s wants to sell people less hamburgers.” esullivan@orlandoweekly.com

arrests in Orange County, despite making up only 25 percent of the youth population. In Osceola, black children represent 23 percent of arrests, but were 12 percent of the youth population. “We are hoping for a mind change in our community for a better understanding that a criminal arrest is traumatic to children,” Wesley says. “There’s a mistaken understanding that an arrest will make the child better. If you tell a child they’re a criminal, they’ll believe you.” Wesley called on local police officers to rely on different remedies, like civil citations or diversion programs, for misdemeanor offenses instead of encouraging what some call the “school-to-prison pipeline.” He says the civil-citation initiative, which would save taxpayers money, is not being used effectively in Orange and Osceola counties. From July 2014 to June 2015, 43 percent of all juvenile misdemeanors in the state resulted in a civil citation being issued. Out of 2,022 children eligible for a civil citation in the Ninth Circuit, only 351 children (17 percent) received one. The remaining 1,671 kids were arrested. The numbers vary slightly between black and white children. More white juveniles (18 percent) were given civil citations in the Ninth Circuit than black juveniles (14 percent). The Orlando Police Department, which arrested 389 juveniles, only gave citations to 4 percent of those eligible for citations, or 14 citations last year. The Apopka Police Department arrested 78 kids last year on eligible charges; none of them received a citation. Orlando Police Department Community Service Officer Roland Clee says in an email that the department is taking steps to increase its use of citations. “We are also training our officers to Orange-Osceola Public Defender says too many children are being arrested for minor use this tool in compliance with the statute, which takes effect in October, where offenses in Orange and Osceola counties we will have to explain in our affidavit why the civil-citation option was not exerBY MON IVETTE COR D EI R O cised,” he says.

Making it rain Orlando City Council approves tentative budget that maintains last year’s increased tax rate BY MONIVETTE COR D EI R O
U
ndeterred by last year’s criticisms for raising the property tax rate by 17.7 percent, Orlando’s City Council stuck with the status quo and gave preliminary approval on Sept. 9 to the city’s proposed $1.1 billion budget. With few peeps from residents, commissioners quickly approved last year’s property tax rate of $6.65 per $1,000 of taxable value. Last year the $1 tax rate hike helped close a shortfall in the budget, and this time around, it has given the city a nice little funding cushion. Orlando expects to collect $146 million in property taxes this year – that’s almost $18 million more than last fiscal year, and tax revenue actually surpasses the $137 million that Orlando was collecting in its prime before the recession. “The real-estate market is on the rebound,” said Orange County Property Appraiser Rick Singh in a presentation to commissioners, pointing out that the city’s
10
taxable base rose by 14 percent. “We’re seeing a tremendous amount of growth.” Seeing as we’re not in the red now, some people may ask, why keep the higher tax rate? Mayor Buddy Dyer’s spokeswoman Cassandra Lafser says in an email that the rate was increased last year, “to continue to provide the high level of services that Orlando residents expect.” If the tax rate were lowered to the previous rate it was before the hike ($5.65 per $1,000 of taxable value), the estimated revenue would drop to $124 million. Lafser adds that the city is saving residents $33 a year per household by foregoing automatic increases to waste fees and has scaled back the size of the budget by $379 million since 2002. No surprise, the police department and fire department take a large chunk (57 percent) out of the general fund, which is budgeted at $401 million. Orlando Police Department’s budget is the biggest at $131 million, and the capital improve-

ment projects include $1 million to each department for equipment replacement and the added purchase of body cameras for police officers. Dyer has also said the city is investing $50 million into the city’s infrastructure for resurfacing roadways and improving drainage, and $4 million for homeless initiatives. Commissioners also got a raise in their individual budgets, from $95,000 to $125,000 each, which would bring them back to the same amount they had in fiscal year 2008-2009. The council had a small kerfuffle at its meeting in August when Commissioner Jim Gray said his fellow elected officials, “have not adopt-
ed a very good culture of spending and have continued to exceed their operating budget.” Commissioners Sam Ings and Regina respecHill spent $120,000 and $90,000 respec tively last fiscal year, and together beat out the four other commissioners on spending. In addition to their operating budgets, commissioners also get a $54,461 annual salary. These decisions are not final until they go before the council for a second time on Sept. 21 at 5:01 p.m. This meeting is the last hearing before the city adopts the final budget on Oct. 1. mcordeiro@orlandoweekly.com

ydia Lunch resists labels. A protean force of nature, she deals in spoken word, poetry, film and photography, though she’s probably best known for her ferocious musical contributions to New York’s No Wave scene. Few bands forged in that late-’70s crucible of aggressive and untrained expression survived intact, but some of the animating spirits of those short-lived groups were disproportionately influential in decades to come, like Thurston Moore, Glenn Branca, Arto Lindsay – and Lunch herself. Lunch’s Teenage Jesus and the Jerks was one of only four bands on the seminal No New York compilation recorded by Brian Eno in 1978. A Teenage Jesus show was a rapacious yowl, propulsive, brutal, and above all, terse: Songs clocked in under a minute; full sets could sometimes resemble “seven-minute shankings,” as David Todd put it in his book Feeding Back (Chicago Review Press, 2012). Lunch, who arrived in New York a 16-year-old runaway, always had a bit of a horrorcore aesthetic (those lyrics: “Little orphans running through the bloody snow,” “The garbage screams at my feet”; that dead-black hair and dead-white skin). Horror-movie fans are familiar with the trope of the final girl, the last one standing who lives to tells the tale – Lunch may
not be the sole survivor of No Wave, but it’s hard to think of another scene veteran who is still telling stories with the same level of vitriol, style and total commitment. “It’s a clever analysis, but in the typical horror film situation, the movie would be over in 30 seconds because I would rush at the maniac and slit his fucking throat,” Lunch laughed in an interview last week. Still, bearing witness is an ongoing thread through all of Lunch’s work. In her first spoken-word piece, 1992’s “Daddy Dearest,” she accused her father of sexual abuse starting when she was 7 years old (which may go some way toward explaining the ferocious rage of her music from the very beginning). “I came [to New York] to do spoken word, but it didn’t really exist yet,” she told Flavorwire in May. “So, here I am wanting to be a spoken word artist, and my first group is half instrumentals – because it was a primal, precise, screaming temper tantrum of anger and hatred against all that was wrong.” “I knew my situation was not unique and I wanted to give voice to other people who didn’t have the wherewithal to speak for themselves,” Lunch says now to Orlando Weekly. “It’s not narcissism. I’m not the only one in these predicaments. … We need to shine a very bright light in those dark corners where the soul can moulder and rot.” As unquestionable as her punk bona fides are, however, Lunch isn’t here as Teenage Jesus or “Lady Scarface” (or 8-Eyed Spy, Beirut Slump, Harry Crews, or even her latest band incarnation, Retrovirus). Fresh from its rapturously received run in New York, she’s bringing to Orlando her multimedia exhibition So Real It Hurts. The show consists of three parts: a collection of ephemera spanning 40 years including posters, fliers, letters and other stuff from Lunch’s archives;
work from her photography series, The War Is Never Over; and, if it can be fit into the Gallery at Avalon Island (fingers crossed), a powerful installation called You Are Not Safe in Your Own Home, an “X-rated scene of the crime” bedroom scene, a sort of answer to Tracey Emin’s infamous My Bed installation. Lunch began photographing in 1990, sometimes using the images as backdrop projections during music or spokenword performances. “I was looking for another language to express what are my continuing obsessions: repression of the individual, whether that’s political, economic, familial,” Lunch says. This current series, montaged images combining war and brutality with humanity and tenderness, is “about the never-ending war – a way to express my concerns about man’s homicidal tendencies.” She continues, “Everything I do is based around the word, whether a song, a photo … they’re all tools to get the point across.” She dubs the photographs “more tender,” adding, “They [the viewers] don’t have to deal with my energy, my passion, which is at times too extreme for people.” That passionate energy will be on display in her two Orlando performances with one of her many collaborators, multiinstrumentalist Weasel Walter (Flying Luttenbachers). Though he, Lunch, Bob Bert (Sonic Youth) and Algis Kizys (Swans) have recorded and toured together as Retrovirus, this performance will consist solely of Walter on drums and Lunch spitting spoken word. But she’s not all evisceration and machine-gun fire: Lunch has a nurturing side as well. In fact, before she ever got orlandoweekly.com
●
up on a stage, she earned her nickname by stealing food for her friends in bands. “People love you when you feed them,” Lunch laughs. (In 2013, WFMU DJ James “The Hound” Marshall told the New York Times that “She was famous … as the first person everybody slept with when they got to New York.” “Do you know how many teenage boys thanked me?” Lunch responded.) The one-time lunch thief has even published a cookbook, The Need to Feed. Its genesis was due in equal parts to that caring earth-mama aspect of Lunch and to the discovery that Michelle Forbes based her True Blood character Maryann, a Dionysian maenad who was forever whipping up food-, wine- and sex-fueled orgies, on Lunch herself. Lunch was delighted. “Yes, it comes full circle eventually. … Once you can afford to, you buy some food and start cooking for your friends.” That nurturing side is also evidenced by her recent sideline in workshops on writing (including a stint this summer at Naropa University’s Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics, teaching with Thurston Moore), stage performance and self-empowerment. “I’m one of the most optimistic people I know,” Lunch says. “In spite of the insanity of this planet, where we’re surrounded by so much horror, at the end of the day, I wanna laugh, I wanna party, I wanna have a good time and look into people’s eyes.” The woman who has famously insisted over the years that “pleasure is the ultimate rebellion” concludes: “There’s no other way I can get it but through the utopia I create. We have to carve out a safe and delightful place to say ‘fuck y’all.’” jyoung@orlandoweekly.com SEPT. 16-22, 2015

S
ome blame online shopping and social media, others blame the car. Whatever the reason, our sidewalks and public spaces have emptied out in recent years, no longer the thronging arena of civic engagement. Aside from the daily office-drone lunch rush, the suburbanite crush before an Amway Center event and the late-night club traffic on Orange Avenue, Orlando’s downtown has suffered the same loss of day-to-day foot traffic as many urban cores. If you, too, are wondering where all the people went, you will have a chance to see them return for Art in Odd Places, a worldwide project coming to downtown Orlando Sept. 17-20. More than 50 artists will reactivate our public space with performances, sound and visual art in an experimental reinvention of public space in the 21st century. Gallery at Avalon Island director Pat Greene decided he wanted to be part of Art in Odd Places after meeting founder Ed Woodham in Greensboro, North Carolina, in 2013. Woodham’s mission with AIOP is
14
to remind us that “public spaces function as the epicenter for diverse social interactions and the unfettered exchange of ideas.” Art in Odd Places tries to expand public communication by presenting art in various media in unexpected locations. “We’re becoming people who prefer to connect to things, rather than people,” Woodham says in a phone interview. Greene echoes this observation, saying, “I simply want to see people having fun with their public space again.” The sidewalk, it seems, isn’t much fun these days. Greene co-curated the project along with Voci Dance artistic director Genevieve Bernard, and together they’ve used the street as a giant-sized canvas-cum-stage. The artists of AIOP 2015 will dance, make music, carry banners, and erect temporary, intriguing works of art along Magnolia Avenue, South Street, Central Boulevard and elsewhere in the general proximity of the Rogers Building at the corner of Magnolia and Pine. Orlando’s public space will, for a short time, be a place once again for spontaneity, surprise and delight, harmlessly interrupting the average pedestrian’s tinyscreen flow for a moment or two. Like a meteor shower, it is difficult to predict the trajectory and the impact that AIOP

will have. The project has sited itself in a diverse range of locales, from Indianapolis to Los Angeles to St. Petersburg, Russia, and other cities are blossoming with recurring projects, so the impact does make a difference. “A performance in a garbage-strewn Atlanta alley was so beautiful … with the garbage!” Woodham says. “But even better was that people cleaned up the alley afterward, as it dawned on them that their public space was beautiful after all.” That kind of subtle impact is difficult to predict, but Greene and Bernard are gambling it will happen here too. This year’s AIOP theme, Tone, was interpreted by many artists to signify an aural quality – a sound. Locative media artist Jeff Knowlton will debut an app called Sonify: Orlando that triggers specific sounds as one moves along the sidewalk, making the cell phone enhance your sense of place instead of negating it. Details are under wraps, but he reveals, “Your Android device will give you an imagined narrative of the street.” Ivan Riascos’ “Migration” will play birdcalls through speakers, extending the idea of tourism to our feathered friends who migrate through the city. Atlantan artist Klimchak will become a 21st-century Pied Piper, riding a “theremin-bike” around the area and luring followers. Greene himself will invite you to be a part of “The Silence 101 Collective,” measuring neural activity to create a “community call” unique to Orlando (kind of like a secular call to prayer, or church bells, one surmises). Land artist Tory Tepp will create a participatory sound-and-earthworks project along Magnolia Avenue, “Earth Tones: Magnolia.” These are but a sample of the sonic artists turning the sidewalk into a musical instrument during the project. Performance art will range from choreographed dance to interactive work. Katya Grokhovsky will surprise pedestrians by unfurling banners emblazoned with socialmedia-style messages along the sidewalk, gauging reactions. Rokaya Mikhailenko’s more formal “Doormat” will feature 30-minute postmodern dances, exploring how relationships and emotions set the tone of our mental states. This choreographed movement will be complemented by Nikki Peña’s Coby Project troupe, which will invite participants into an improvised dance. More edgy performance art includes a tongue-in-cheek political campaign by David Matteson and Betsy Johnson titled “Rick Scott Is My Hero” and J. Ashley Miller’s “The Magnolia Cup,” a trophy to be won by a passerby who rapidly learns “focused dueling” and gets really good at it, really fast.
Meanwhile, noted local artist Chris Scala will be … sleeping. Yep, in his “X-ray Camper,” a teardrop trailer complete with furniture and built-ins, all constructed of see-through wire mesh, he’ll snooze with little or no privacy. Will he get busted as a street person? Arrested for snoring? Stick around to find out. Visual art is a part of the scene, as well. Temporary sculpture installations will include Nathan Selikoff’s “Audiograph” mapping sounds onto a screen, creating a mesmerizing, ever-renewing digital “clock” of the last 60 seconds of street noise. Much more tiny, yet also compelling, will be Ian Nolan’s “Interruptions,” in which he colorfully paints over details that he finds along the sidewalk – architectural details, or a weed perhaps – interrupting the monolithic surfaces we encounter. Adhering more closely to the theme of Tone, Dina Mack will create a witty sensory installation around cocoa-butter Tone soap, alluding to Florida with the soap bar encircled in delicate metaphors of our sense of place – Spanish moss, oranges – and also to Orlando’s squeaky-clean reputation. Lest the pedestrian be a passive viewer, many of these works are participatory, giving everyone a chance to test the idea of being an artist. In Tara Young and Ashley Inguanta’s joint piece, “This Is a Safe Space,” participants can record any emotion, “no matter how light or dark,” beneath a large-scale wheat-pasted mural of Inguanta’s photography. For anyone old enough to remember the artist collective Fluxus, started in the ’50s by George Maciunas, the notion of a series of loosely orchestrated “happenings” is familiar ground. In today’s ultra-uptight regulatory climate, the idea of the sidewalk as a place for spontaneity is almost impossible to conceive. Fluxus events were planned in secret, happened in public, and were over before anyone could stop them. Today, we must partner with government from the get-go. It is to Greene and Bernard’s credit that this is occurring without compromising the artists’ voices, under the state’s well-meaning but sometimes hamfisted control. In spite of this control, Art in Odd Places has been a tremendous success, and Orlando’s ascent into the tier of cities sponsoring this project marks a new era. The sidewalk, an ancient invention, badly needs to be nourished by the human spirit. Art in Odd Places will draw flâneurs, bystanders, artists and art fans into civic engagement, reinventing the sidewalk for this century. It is Orlando’s great good fortune to be part of this new experiment, and invest meaning into urban space once again. arts@orlandoweekly.com

green paint]. On the Orlando series, they all have dots on them, and they represent the amount of rain that we get. I didn’t want anything to be too in-your-face with the obviousness; I try to keep things really subtle or symbolic or representative, rather than exactly how they are.
BY SETH KUBERSKY
What motivated your pieces about Savannah College of Art and Design? It’s all about the moment that I realized I loved art. I never realized how much I loved this very first art history class. The first piece I did was the Venus of Willendorf: It was the first class, the first time I’d ever been to college, and the first image that popped up. And it was like, Bam! I’m in love. I looked around, everyone else is falling asleep in this darkened room, and I’m totally obsessed.
An interview with Orlando artist Christie Miga, part of the Dog Powered Robot team and a serious painter in her own right
ART BY CHRISTIE MIGA
Once upon a time I built sets and painted props, but lately my hands are mostly used for typing. So I’m envious of artists like Christie Miga, whose latest collection of paintings, En(grain)ed, debuted at the Timucua Arts White House in August. Miga is also co-creator of the Fringe Festival favorite Dog Powered Robot (a cardboard “robot” ostensibly operated by a tiny Pomeranian) with her Imagineer husband, Evan, but her latest work required a whole new skill set, as she shared with me during her opening reception. LAC: How long has your En(grain)ed show been in progress? Miga: I would say probably about 10 months. It took me a while to figure it out. It’s almost like every time I do a collection, I have to figure out all the stuff in my head first before I can get going, so I’ll do lots of testing. I actually brought some of my test panels. I do lots of test panels and things like that, and then I come up with “Where is all this coming from? What is the crux of this?” So that I can pull from that and have a cohesiveness. En(grain)ed features watercolor paint on pine and poplar circles. How did you come upon this combination? The collection is all about moments in
time. They are memories that when they are happening don’t seem like anything at all. But then later in life I looked back on them as a major turning point that really influenced me in some way, or was really profound for me. And so when I think back to memories, or I think of positive goals or dreams, I don’t ever think of it on a cold canvas. It seems so much more familiar and comforting, so I went with a wood grain. Wood is all around you all the time; canvas isn’t. So I thought that would better express what I’m trying to say. What is working with watercolor paint on wood like? It’s really different because it moves totally differently than it would on canvas. When I’m working on canvas I have to let it do what it wants to do, but on wood even more so. If it’s going to drip over here and go totally around, I have to let it do that. And it also spreads sideways more. How did you settle on particular moments of inspiration to memorialize in this collection? It was really hard. The first few were really easy, and the later half was like, “What else?” You have to go back and think, “What made me do that, or what changed me in that way?” It can be hard to pinpoint that moment. What I kept drawing back to was, “When I did this, I was in this place.” So I made them based on places, and what happened in those places. It was the only anchor that I could pull from. In my Savannah series, I was trying to emulate the Spanish moss on trees [with
How does the Factur Maker Lab support your work? Doug Brown gave me a scholarship for six months to Factur [factur.org] with all the classes I wanted to take, and also gave me $1,000 for materials. Literally, without them this [show] would never have happened. I had this idea in my head, I had done the testing on wood, I had figured out what I wanted to do. But I didn’t have the knowledge of wood and woodworking. And so I sent in an essay to get the scholarship and they chose me. The wood pieces don’t come like this [in rounds], so I had to woodcraft masters, I had to learn all about pine and poplar, wood grain and all that stuff. They gave the wood to me in these massive square sheets, and I had to put them on a huge room-sized CNC wood-cutting machine I learned to use. A lot of them have engravings on them, so I also learned how to do all the engravings. I learned way more than I expected to learn. I was nervous about it too – I’m going to be in there with these big wood-working guys, which is intimidating! But they made it so easy; they teach you as you go. What’s next for you and Dog Powered Robot? I’ve been focused on this collection for almost a year. The next thing we’re going to focus on is Maker Faire [Sept. 12-13 at Loch Haven Park, makerfaireorlando.com], where we’re going to bring the robots. Fisher [the show’s Pomeranian star] is good, and Dog Powered Robot will be at Maker Faire. And we are still working on some things that are under wraps right now. [Editor’s note: This interview was conducted prior to Maker Faire, just before Seth Kubersky took a short summer break. His column will return in the Sept. 30 edition.] skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

a dish just for you. The Ivanhoe Groves salad ($9) is pretty hard to beat, though, combining mango, goat cheese, oranges, candied nuts and bacon over arugula, with a melon dressing. Add chicken or shrimp for a small upcharge. All in all, there are more than 10 GF options between the lunch and dinner menus.

Yes, you can eat gluten-free in Orlando for breakfast, lunch, dinner and late into the night with no FOMO; here’s how
There are 33 menu items designated glutenfree at the new Spanish-concept restaurant by the owners of Taverna Opa at I-Drive 360. Chef de cuisine Frank Galeano and executive chef Wendy Lopez are well-versed in offering those with allergies and food preferences – whether GF, vegan or paleo – cuisine that fits their palates, including roasted rack of lamb with celeriac puree ($32), Scottish salmon with olive and roasted red pepper salsa ($26) and all three of the dramatic paellas. Smile pretty at chef Lopez and she might slice you off a sliver of the prized pata negra (a super-funky Iberico ham aged for up to six years) that’s mounted on a brass display at the restaurant.

t’s a bummer to go out when you’ve got allergies or intolerances or, even worse, actual celiac disease. Those with the latter are in for a really bad day if they consume any wheat-derived substances, suffering from all the gastrointestinal issues you can think of (bloating, vomiting, constipation and/or diarrhea) along with fatigue, pain and a chronic itchy rash, but even those with simple gluten sensitivity – not full-blown celiac – can feel some of the same symptoms. Luckily, Orlando’s restaurants have wised up to the preferences and needs of their patrons, and there are plenty of spots where gluten-free eating doesn’t mean staying home while your buds wheat it up. We’ve compiled a full day of eating and drinking GF in town (with nary a chain to be found!), along with menu suggestions and tips that’ll make going out gluten-free a cinch.
Breakfast & Brunch: Artisan’s Table, 22 E. Pine St., 407-730-7499, artisanstableorlando.com
Dessert:
Sportstown Billiards, 2414 E. Robinson St., 407-894-6258, sportstownbilliards.com Redlight Redlight, 2810 Corrine Drive, 407-893-9832, redlightredlightbeerparlour.com
A couple of rules if you’re living gluten-free and looking to get a buzz on: Hard ciders are almost always GF. If you’re anywhere with Woodchuck, Angry Orchard, Crispin or Strongbow, you’re home free, and just about every bar in Orlando has one of these. As for beer, you do have options. Sure, barley and malt are out of the question, but a few years ago, beer giant Anheuser-Busch released Redbridge, a sorghum-based beer brand, so it’s pretty prevalent. You can get it at Mellow Mushroom, Raglan Road and Sportstown Billiards in the Milk District. Redlight Redlight carries New Planet, a sorghum- and rice-based gluten-free beer out of Colorado that donates a portion of proceeds toward eco-friendly causes. When in doubt, hit up Total Wine and BYOB it. Just check the label first: If it doesn’t say “gluten-free” on the label, it isn’t.
Late-Night Dining:
Jillycakes, 125 N. Orlando Ave., Winter Park, 863-797-4233, jillycakesorlando.com Cupcake Wars winner Jillian Hopke puts out two flavors of gluten-free cupcake every single day, no repeats, at her Winter Park location tucked in between Shake Shack and Trader Joe’s. If you’ve got a crowd to sweeten up, she only needs 24 hours notice for a custom GF order. Pick from any Jillycakes flavor (they can all be made gluten-free, except Oreo and Cookie Butter), including S’mores, Florida Citrus, Boston Crème and Lemon Crunch. Bonus: If you’re dairy-free, too, request the special frosting that doesn’t contain lactose or milk products.
Oblivion Taproom, 5101 E. Colonial Drive, 407-802-4800, obliviontaproom.com Fill your boozy belly with GF fourthmeal snacks until 2 a.m. at Oblivion. Just let your server know that you shun gluten and the kitchen will pay special attention to cross-contamination (that is, they’ll fry your wings and fries separately from other customers’ battered menu options). Any of the sandwiches are fair game, too, as gluten-free bread and buns are available. An ideal pre-hangover food is the Man in Black ($15), a perfectly heavy fried egg sandwich with bacon gravy and cheddar cheese.

The first two meals of the day, breakfast and brunch, are notoriously carby, but it’s totally possible to find decent grub sans gluten. At Artisan’s Table, choose the steel-cut oatmeal ($6), topped with dried fruit, nuts and agave syrup, or the Japanese breakfast bowl ($6.50) – sticky rice topped with two eggs, scallion, bacon, togarashi (a Japanese spice mix) and sweet chili sauce. The Greek yogurt bowl ($5) is also packed with protein (i.e., super-satisfying) and boasts a healthy serving of that old GF standby, quinoa, along with fresh berries.
Lunch: Outpost Neighborhood Kitchen, 2603 Edgewater Drive, 407-930-6282, outpostcollegepark.com Gluten-free menu items are labeled right on the menu, so you won’t feel like you’re making a spectacle of yourself. If there’s nothing on there that pleases your palate, just let your server know and the chef will come out and customize

Bavaro’s Pizza Napoletana & Pastaria Not your average pizza and pasta joint, this Winter Springs hotspot draws them in for Neapolitan-style pies and housemade, hand-cut tagliatelle and ravioli. The star is the Neapolitan-made brick oven, which churns out perfectly blistered pizzas, be it your basic margherita or the weighted and eggy carciofi con uovo. A stellar Bolognese sauce highlights the tagliatelle, and to end without sampling either the cannoli or tiramisu would be a mistake. 1468 Tuskawilla Road, Winter Springs, 321-422-3600; $$$
Quickly Boba & Snow A fun atmosphere makes Quickly more hangout than quick stop. With dozens of varieties of boba tea, shaved snow and slushies, in addition to a savory menu (Taiwanese-style popcorn chicken, summer rolls), it’s got plenty to offer, but it’s owner Kimberly Bui’s macarons that stun. The meringue cookies come in a host of flavors, from pistachio to lavender to caramel; the rose-lychee ones are unstoppably addictive. 3214 E. Colonial Drive, 407-270-4570; $
Five f(x) No less an authority than Food Network star Alton Brown named this ice cream specialist a “Top Southern Pick,” and you should listen to the man. Flavors that run the gamut from vanilla to avocado to spiced chai are prepared right in front of you, frozen to order with your choice of cow, almond or soy milk. A specialty of the house is taiyaki, sweet fish-shaped waffles that are crispy outside, creamfilled inside. 688 N. Alafaya Trail, 407-930-7181; $
Sammy’s Gelato & Waffles In a simple and tasteful environment, a focused menu of 20-odd gelato flavors is served – “everything but the sugar” is shipped from Italy, then crafted in-house. Straciatella and caramel cookie gelato are standouts. Skip the waffles, though; they’re of good quality, but unless you

get there right as they griddle a batch, you can end up with a soft, lukewarm, doughy blob. Stick with the milky good stuff. 3050 Alafaya Trail, Oviedo, 407-542-0540; $
Union Burger The better burger movement gets the Canadian treatment at this Lake Nona outpost of this Ontario-based chain, but don’t blame Canada for the subpar poutine served here, or the overdone burgers and dogs. Shakes veer on the sweet side, but locals will appreciate Cigar City brews and Quantum Leap wines. 9680 Narcoossee Road, 407-745-4510; $
Mark’s Caribbean Cuisine UCF-area jerk joint isn’t in the tidiest of strip malls, but the Jamaican fare is neat-o. Yes, the jerk chicken is top-notch, but the supremely tender oxtail stew is what regulars come back for. Plush cuts of goat in a heady curry gratify, as does traditional ackee and saltfish. Servers are friendly, but don’t expect to be wowed by the decor. 10034 University Blvd., 407-699-8800; $
Korea House The Colonial Drive outpost of Korea House is just as meat-centric as its Longwood counterpart. All-you-can-eat Korean barbecue is the clear choice for most patrons – given the quality of meat and the relatively low AYCE price, it’s easy to see why. Not up for barbecue? Stir-fries and soups, like mandu-guk with dumplings and rice cake in beef broth, will make happy fun dance in your tummy. 4501 Colonial Drive, 407-896-5994; $$
Two Chefs Seafood Oyster Bar Don’t let the casual decor fool you – there’s some worthy NOLA-inspired fare to be had here. The deep experience of the chefs clearly shows in plates of fried chicken, jumbo lump crab cakes, baked oysters and roasted duck hash. Do yourself a favor and order a side of stellar charred okra, then reward yourself with superlative endings of banana bread pudding and praline cheesecake. Open daily; Sunday brunch from 11:30 a.m.-3 p.m. 743 N. Magnolia Ave., 407-270-4740; $$
Outpost Neighborhood Kitchen Corrugated aluminum, reclaimed wood, Edison light bulbs – we’ve seen it all before, but it doesn’t come off kitschy here. Starters and mains cruise the modern Southern cuisine aisle (like pimiento cheese and pickled deviled eggs) – trendy foodie-bait for chefs, but executed well enough to please patrons too. Top-notch proteins like beautifully glazed short ribs and butter-topped rib-eye are marred only by sides that don’t measure up; desserts are great. 2603 Edgewater Drive, 407-930-6282; $$$ n

Opening this week Black Mass One of my favorite ’90s rituals was hearing Johnny Depp explain which two celebrities he had gene-spliced to come up with his latest performance (Ed Wood was Ronald Reagan crossed with Charlie McCarthy, etc.) But now that that quirky-alchemist act has worn thin in most corners, his people are only asking us to accept that his performance as Whitey Bulger in Black Mass is Johnny Depp crossed with Whitey Bulger. Unfortunately, prerelease scuttlebutt has it that Depp may have had his artistic comeback stolen out from under him by his own supporting cast. Oh, well. Time to lighten the mood with some trivia: Did you know that “Whitey Bulger” is what Michael Fassbender calls his ding-dong? (R) Captive Here’s a timely contribution to the national conversation about race, religion and violence: Kate Mara stars in the “true” story of a white woman who used the lessons of Rick Warren’s The Purpose-Driven Life to help her overcome an evil black assailant. See? Those big sillies in Charleston were just reading the wrong book! (PG-13) Everest We’ve officially entered the season of feature films based on real-life events that were already explored in documentaries your uncle didn’t see.
In advance of the Man on Wire retread The Walk, we have Everest, the story of the 1996 climbing disaster that was previously chronicled in not one but two docs. “Oscar nom or it didn’t happen,” say costars Josh Brolin and Jake Gyllenhaal! (PG-13) Grandma Remember when we couldn’t admit Lily Tomlin was a lesbian? Now she can even play one! In Grandma, she’s a feminist poet who’s still reeling from the death of her girlfriend when her granddaughter recruits her into a desperate mission to come up with 600 bucks by day’s end. The New York Times lauded Tomlin’s “career-capping performance”; what, are they expecting her to die now? (R) Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials Yep, they’re still making these Hunger Games wannabes, and even timing them to grab a few bucks before the next plateful of Katniss gets dumped in front of our gluttonous faces. Maze Runner redux introduces us to one of the main villains of the series, the rodent-faced Rat Man (which, of course, is also what Scooby-Doo calls Ben Affleck). Ten weeks ’til Mockingjay Part 2!

hen you think of Fast Forward, the title of revered San Diego instrumental post-rock duo El Ten Eleven’s latest album, you might think it refers to that impulse to skip ahead. We’re all so inclined to expect that what lies in the future must be worth the inherent magnetism of life’s rigid momentum. Instead, it’s less metaphorical than all that. “Fast Forward” was actually a band name that songwriter-bassist Kristian Dunn’s father used to always suggest when Dunn was young and starting out as a musician. He hated it and never used it, but now he sees that was just obstinacy and after all these years, finally gave in and applied it to his music. It’s a personal reference the listener can’t possibly know without seeking the information, but among the dance-driven hooks on standout tracks like “Battle Aves,” the record finds both
Dunn and beat mastermind Tim Fogarty exploring their youths and relationships with their fathers through a record that is mature, mood-rich and resonant on multiple levels. Fans will note immediately that the album also shifts the band’s sound, inspired by a third father-son influence. “We’ve played a bunch of shows with Peter Hook (of New Order and Joy Division) and his son Jack,” Dunn says in an email interview. “They convinced me to play a bass six like they do. A bass six is a little different from a standard sixstring bass in that the top four strings are the same as a regular bass, but there are two higher strings added on top. In other words, it’s the same tuning as a guitar but an octave lower. Anyway, that instrument changed the sound of the band, so I dedicated a song to them: ‘Peter and Jack.’ There is no double neck on this record.” That track is distinct in subject matter from much of the rest, which tours the listener through some of Fogarty’s family history points of interest, with Dunn helping to evoke the tug we all feel about certain
Lydia Lunch performance with Weasel Walter
places through songs that yank the listener around. The album kicks off with “Point Breeze,” a meaningful spot as a kid growing up for Fogarty’s father, who died just before the recording process started. Next is “Scott Township,” punctuated by feedback and finding us in Fogarty’s childhood stomping grounds. Further dedications to Fogarty’s father can be found on “We Lost a Giant” and “JD.” While the record is weighted by reconciling difficult, powerful feelings, the music itself has a light touch, compelling pensiveness but not breakdown. When performing, the duo – known for snubbing laptops to create a frenzied live show where they finesse these songs right in front of marveling audiences – necessarily ices out this intimacy (which is so integral to the songwriting process) and brings, for Dunn, a rare emotional peak through performance. “Honestly, when we put a set together, we are focused so much on the technical side of things that emotion is a very distant concern,” Dunn says. “Once we get in front of people, that changes. We’ve played ‘My Only Swerving’ so many times, it’s hard to get moved by it while in the practice room. But when 700 people go nuts when we play it live, there is a unique emotional component that is otherwise not achievable.”
No Wave pioneer and massively influential performer Lydia Lunch drops into town for a number of essential engagements and performances. (See page 13 for more information.) 5:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 18, at Gallery at Avalon Island; 8 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 19, at CityArts Factory, free

James Leg BY B AO L E - H U U
PHOTO BY JEN CRAY
The latest local-boy-makes-good
story is Christopher Paul Stelling, a Daytona Beach native whose first launchpad was the Orlando indie scene and who now tours as a signed man to heavyweight label Anti Records. As good as he is on record, live is where he truly mesmerizes, something that his latest return reaffirmed (Sept. 8, Will’s Pub). The first thing that floors everyone is Stelling’s technique. All that work is him executing the work of practically a whole band by himself, not doing stupid solos. Besides weaving a higher melodic thread count than most of us are used to hearing from a solo acoustic player, he creates his own beat on both the strings and a microphoned stomp pad. When you have such mastery at your command, resisting wankery isn’t easy. Stelling, however, never lets the dazzle dictate. Despite his obvious gift of hand, he approaches things not as a guitar player but as a songwriter. Marrow-tapping and road-chiseled, Stelling’s expression is detailed and deep. On reflective songs, his extraordinarily woven music can allure like a spider web glistening with morning dew. On cutting ones, he awes as a tempest of fire and soul. Befitting the homecoming of a former local, the historically significant crowd was dominated by players who defined the mid-2000s Orlando indie scene, figures like his label mates on Sleepybird Orphanage (Crutch and the Giant Junshi) and cousin label Post Records (Mumpsy, Dodger, Dirt McCoy, Bob
With hands that move like hexed tarantulas, no one cranks the ivories like this guy. on Blonde). Even my photographer for the night, Michael Lothrop, was the drummer for Post band Watch Me Disappear. But as warmly nostalgic as this particular show was, Stelling is very much a current story. And in light of his recent milestones, it’s only just beginning in earnest.
THE BEAT
The name James Leg (Sept. 7, Will’s Pub) may not yet be widely familiar, but it is to blues-punk aficionados. He was part of the final lineup of the Immortal Lee County Killers, one of the genre’s greatest bands, but would eventually prove his own star worth as the engine behind the Black Diamond Heavies, an exceptional act in the Alive Records canon. Leg made the Heavies distinctive by rocking blues organ and piano with the fronting virility usually reserved for the guitar. This decade, he’s been doing him, and his new solo album (Below the Belt) picks up the tar-bucket blues where the Heavies left off with more soulful dimension. Live, Leg’s flanked by a drummer, but there’s no question who’s the pounding heart here. As soon as he hits the keys, it’s with the sizzle and splatter of fatback on a
hot pan. With hands that move like hexed tarantulas, no one cranks the ivories as hard as this guy. And because he can wield a different keyboard with each hand, he really fills the speakers with Rhodes piano, organ and bass keys. Few musicians balance edge and artistry like this. Add in the showmanship of draining your soul into every performance and you get one seriously electric display. There’s always a certain historical heat that surrounds the arrival of music royalty. But it seems even the broader cosmos aligned behind the appearance of conscious-rap king KRS-One (Sept. 4, Backbooth). The venue was maxed, the crowd was abuzz and the AC was failing, all in the apex of an Orlando summer. Yeah, it was raw. Despite conditions meant only for fighters cutting mad weight, however, everyone came to get down. A true man of the people, KRS-One’s entrance was a wade right through the crowd to the stage. Once up there, he soundchecked with a freestyle that was searing enough to ignite the gathering. Then on, he lifted the club and revealed the gulf in skill, command and gravity between all the wannabes and a real master. Ain’t nothing like being in the same room as a legend, and KRS-One was, without a blink or pause, one of the greatest rap presences I’ve ever been among. Like he went in, only magnified by a feverpitch show, he went out by descending into the crowd and crowning the show with a mass, sweaty populist photo op. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK
Wednesday, 16
Yautja
MUSIC Nashville crushers Yautja managed to bowl over heavy music heads with their debut last year, Songs of Descent. Blending the best of grindcore, stoner rock and thrash, it’s sensory overload and raucously blurs any expectation to obscure each song’s horizon, like trying to distinguish shades of black in the dark. Featuring members of Coliseum, Nameless Cults and Gnarwhal, Yautja is a distinct mutt thankfully not mussed up by defining lines in pedigree. The album’s mostly sold out (according to their Bandcamp, the cassettes and vinyl flew off shelves, and there are exactly three CDs remaining), so if by chance you see music merch, you should probably snag it. If you already did and dug this shock to the system, you should be stoked Yautja has new music coming out in October, a seven-song EP called Songs of Lament. Go crush on this welcome new force in person. – Ashley Belanger

ART
If you can credit the rise of digital photography with anything, it’s a massive influx of new talent snapping pics of everything under the sun. CityArts Factory is capitalizing on the burgeoning local photo scene with its second annual Best of DTO exhibition, which features the work of over 100 local photographers. There are 750 photographs loosely collected into five different categories: Lake Eola, Family Fun, Skyline, Best of Downtown Orlando and Downtown Orlando Community. A panel of six judges choose a winner from each category to receive a prize of $100, in addition to two $300 prizes for Best in Show and People’s Choice. The opening coincides with the monthly Third Thursday Gallery Hop, so wander around and maybe snap your own photos of one of downtown’s best recurring art events. – Bernard Wilchusky

Best of DTO
Taste of Downtown Mouth-watering sushi, sizzling steak and tasty tacos are all on the menu at this year’s 16th annual Taste of Downtown. Festivalgoers have the chance to experience some of the CBD’s best restaurants at this one-day event, which takes place at the Orange County Regional History Center. Artisan’s Table, known for its lunchtime crush and all-around deliciousness, is one of the featured restaurants. Another local favorite making an appearance is Gringos Locos, which has made a home for itself in the heart of downtown by whipping up some of Orlando’s favorite Mexican munchies (as evidenced by their presence all over our Best of Orlando Readers Poll). Festivalgoers with a sweet tooth can end the night with one of the Pop Parlour’s all-natural frozen pops from their everchanging menu, which has previously featured flavors like champagne-mango and pineapple-coconut. Although admission is free, those who wish to indulge in some good eating will have to buy food tickets. These can be purchased either beforehand on the Taste of Downtown website or at the venue on the day of the event. Coincidentally, the Art in Odd Places festival, happening on the same day (see page 14), will provide attendees with ample entertainment while they stuff their bellies to capacity. – Marissa Mahoney

ART
Fashion photography is a paradox. It is equal parts inspiring and infuriating – an art form that, in its dedication to celebrating beauty, plays a huge role in making many people (women especially) feel anything but beautiful. Our culture is both drawn to, and repelled by, the fashion industry’s imagery – whether it’s a striking black-and-white portrait by Herb Ritts or one of Ellen von Unwerth’s steamy scenes of tiny-waisted women striking sexy poses in Guess jeans. That’s what makes it such a fascinating topic for an art show. Snap! Orlando presents a series of images from the world of fashion photography that idealizes and deconstructs the modern fashion industry and its standards. From Douglas Kirkland’s vintage portraits of fashion icon Coco Chanel to Dina Litovksy’s behind-the-scenes images taken at a catwalk show, Couture Culture gives viewers a chance to look at fashion (and fashion photography) under the microscope. – Erin Sullivan

Couture Culture
Bobcat Goldthwait You just never can predict who’s going to make it for the long haul. If you’d had to lay a bet on which actor from Police Academy 2 and 3 would still be a vital part of pop culture three decades later, odds would not have been good on the weird, squeaky-voiced, twitchy Bobcat Goldthwait (who made his big-screen debut as Cadet Zed). But Goldthwait has left his erstwhile fellow officers behind while he’s carved out a very interesting career for himself. After catching an early taste of creative control with the cult classic Shakes the Clown (which he wrote, directed and starred in), he left stand-up behind in the mid-2000s to go all in as a film and TV director. After turning out indie hits Sleeping Dogs Lie (mumblecore, if mumblecore had actual jokes) World’s Greatest Dad and God Bless America (pitch-black comedies), and Willow Creek (his stab at horrorcomedy), Goldthwait released Call Me Lucky this year, his first documentary. Luckily for us, he’s also returned to the standup stage, though he’s left the wacky-zany tics behind. If his “appearances” on Marc Maron’s “WTF” podcast are anything to go by, Goldthwait has mellowed into a good place – still weird, but minus the twitch. – Jessica Bryce Young

MUSIC
After a bunch of buildup in the form of mixtapes and early Def Jam singles, Englewood rapper Lil Durk finally leapt out with his debut in June, Remember My Name. Jeremih helps slink up AutoTuned offerings like “Like Me” to portray that deadly cool confidence that is mostly convincing on this, Lil Durk’s first official album. However, first world problems tame the ferocity of heavier tracks like “What’s Your Life Like,” which stoops to caution online lurkers with a touch too much severity. You can bet his early fans are tryna’ pack into Venue 578, though, to sweat the heat of party track “Tryna’ Tryna.” – AB
MUSIC When we caught flamboyant Miami garage-punk band Plastic Pinks back in July at a low-profile show at St. Matthew’s Tavern, it was an eye-popping first impression. Turns out, this encounter was the blinding pass of an underground meteor having a banner year that only seems to be accelerating. After a chain of notable steps, like hooking up with garage-punk royalty AJ Davila and releasing on regional boutique labels like Cheap Miami and Atlanta’s Die Slaughterhaus, they most recently released an album (the Davila-produced Sunnyside Rabbits) on tastemaking imprint Burger Records this summer. With music that’s a total party, performances that are pure kinetic rush and a quickly rising star, Plastic Pinks are looking an awful lot like the next Florida breakout. Add in locals like early rock & roll princes the Woolly Bushmen and new Phil Longo band Dumberbunnies and you’ve got a surefire bill. – Bao Le-Huu

FRIDAY, 18
Halloween Horror Nights 25 EVENTS Like a bat outta hell, Halloween Horror Nights once again swoops into the City Beautiful, casting a cryptic shadow over Universal Studios. September and October in Orlando are always rife with loyal fans and newcomers alike spewing gossip and criticism on the big-budget horror event. Unfortunately, the voices have started drifting towards the negative: Phrases like “too corporate” and “sell-out” have crept into the chatter, while social media posts are trolled on a regular basis by former fans complaining of the event’s “sameness” and “lack of originality” year after year. Universal needed a jolt of something fresh to revitalize the event and quell naysayers for their 25th anniversary. In a clever turn of events, instead of looking forward, Universal Creative looked back. Back to Jack. The insane clown (who long reigned as Horror Nights’ chaos-craving Mickey Mouse) was a staple of the brand for years, and with his removal, the vibe followed in suit. Now in 2015, with a grizzled I’ve-seen-some-shit makeover, Jack makes his welcome return in a big way – and it sets the tone for the entire event. Like a comeback record from your favorite band after a long hiatus, there’s an energy, a heartbeat, permeating the brand of Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights that we haven’t seen in many years, and it’s infectious. But is a shiny throwback celebration enough to bring back the defectors? Only one way to find out! – Adam McCabe

will instead be measured and reasonable. If you swagger a bit, you will do it with humor and style, not narcissism and superiority. Thank you in advance for your service to humanity. The world needs more of this benign kind of egotism.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) I won’t go so far as to say that you are surrounded by unhinged maniacs whose incoherence is matched only by their self-delusion. That would probably be too extreme. But I do suspect that at least some of the characters in the game you’re playing are not operating at their full potential. For now, it’s best not to confront them and demand that they act with more grace. The wiser strategy might be to avoid being swept up in their agitation as you take good care of yourself. If you are patient and stay centered, I bet you will eventually get a chance to work your magic. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Many of the heroes in fairy tales survive and thrive because of the magical gifts they are given. Benefactors show up, often unexpectedly, to provide them with marvels – a spinning wheel that can weave a cloak of invisibility, perhaps, or winged shoes that give them the power of flight, or a charmed cauldron that brews a healing potion. But there is an important caveat. The heroes rarely receive their boons out of sheer luck. They have previously performed kind deeds or unselfish acts in order to earn the right to be blessed. According to my analysis, the coming weeks will be prime time for you to make yourself worthy of gifts you will need later on. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) We humans need nourishing stories almost as much as we require healthy food, clean air, pure water and authentic love. And yet many of us get far less than our minimum daily requirement of nourishing stories. Instead, we are barraged with nihilistic narratives that wallow in misery and woe. If we want a break from that onslaught, our main other choices are sentimental fantasies and empty-hearted trivia. That’s the bad news. But here’s the good news: Now is a favorable time for you to seek remedies for this problem. That’s why I’m urging you to hunt down redemptive chronicles that furnish your soul with gritty delight. Find parables and sagas and tales that fire up your creative imagination and embolden your lust for life. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Now is an excellent time to close the gap between the Real You and the image of yourself that you display to the world. I know of two ways to accomplish this. You can tinker with the Real You so that it’s more like the image you display. Or else you can change the image you display so that it is a more accurate rendition of the Real You. Both strategies may be effective. However you go about it, I suggest you make it your goal to shrink the amount of pretending you do.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Some people express pride in gross ways. When you hear their overbearing brags, you know it’s a sign that they are not really confident in themselves. They overdo the vanity because they’re trying to compensate for their feelings of inadequacy. In the coming weeks, I expect you to express a more lovable kind of self-glorification. It won’t be inflated or arrogant, but
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Since you seem to enjoy making life so complicated and intense for yourself, you may be glad to learn that the current astrological omens favor that development. My reading of the astrological omens suggests that you’re about to dive deep into rich mysteries that could drive you half-crazy. I suspect that you will be agitated and animated by your encounters with ecstatic torment and difficult bliss. Bon voyage! Have fun! Soon I expect to see miniature violet bonfires gleaming in your bedroom eyes, and unnamable emotions rippling through your unfathomable face, and unprecedented words of wild wisdom spilling from your smart mouth. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) The Adamites were devotees of an ancient Christian sect that practiced sacred nudism. One of their central premises: How could anyone possibly know God while wearing clothes? I am not necessarily recommending that you make their practice a permanent part of your spiritual repertoire, but I think you might find value in it during the coming weeks. Your erotic and transcendent yearnings will be rising to a crescendo at the same time. You will have the chance to explore states where horniness and holiness overlap. Lusty prayers? Reverent sex? Ecstatic illumination? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) One of your key themes in the coming weeks is “grace.” I suggest that you cultivate it, seek it out, expect it, and treasure it. To prepare for this fun work, study all of the meanings of “grace” below. At least two of them, and possibly all, should and can be an active part of your life. 1) Elegance or beauty of form, movement, or proportion; seemingly effortless charm or fluidity. 2) Favor or goodwill; a disposition to be generous or helpful. 3) Mercy, forgiveness, charity. 4) A temporary exemption or immunity; a reprieve. 5) A sense of fitness or propriety. 6) A prayer of blessing or thanks said before a meal. 7) An unmerited divine gift offered out of love. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Be good, but not necessarily well-behaved. Be extra exuberant and free, but not irresponsible. Be lavish and ardent and even rowdy, but not decadent. Why? What’s the occasion? Well, you have more-or-less finished paying off one of your karmic debts. You have conquered or at least outwitted a twist from your past that had been sapping your mojo. As a reward for doing your duty with such diligence, you have earned a respite from some of the more boring aspects of reality. And so now you have a mandate to gather up the intelligent pleasure you missed when you were acting like a beast of burden. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) “I am the least difficult of men. All I want is boundless love.” That’s the mantra that Frank O’Hara intoned in his poem “Meditations in an Emergency,” and now I’m inviting you to adopt a modified version of it. Here’s how I would change it for your use in the coming months: “I am the least difficult of passion artists. All I want is to give and receive boundless, healthy, interesting love.” To be frank, I don’t think O’Hara’s simple and innocent declaration will work for you. You really do need to add my recommended nuances in order to ripen your soul’s code and be aligned with cosmic rhythms.
Orange County Animal Services has a pup that loves to have fun in the sun. Meet Peaches. She’s a 4-year-old dog, recently found as a stray, who cannot get enough time playing fetch or swimming. Peaches can sit on command and when she does it, she wags her tail which makes her whole body wiggle. She also walks well on a leash and gets along with other dogs. She’s a very energetic and playful pup. You can visit Peaches at orange County animal Services, 2769 Conroy road, ocnetpets.com. Adoption fees for dogs are currently $55, and all dogs are spayed or neutered, microchipped and up to date on shots before going home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Born under the sign of Leo, Marcel Duchamp was an influential artist whose early work prefigured surrealism. In 1917, he submitted an unusual piece to a group exhibition in New York. It was a plain old porcelain urinal, but he titled it Fountain, and insisted it was a genuine work of art. In that spirit, I am putting my seal of approval on the messy melodrama you are in the process of managing. Henceforth, this melodrama shall also be known as a work of art, and its title will be “Purification.” (Or would you prefer “Expurgation” or “Redemption”?) If you finish the job with the panache you have at your disposal, it will forevermore qualify as a soul-jiggling masterpiece.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) The rooster is your power animal. Be like him. Scrutinize the horizon for the metaphorical dawn that is coming, and be ready to herald its appearance with a triumphant wake-up call. On the other hand, the rooster is also your affliction animal. Don’t be like him. I would hate for you to imitate the way he handles himself in a fight, which is to keep fussing and squabbling far beyond the point when he should let it all go. In conclusion, act like a rooster but also don’t act like a rooster. Give up the protracted struggle so you can devote yourself to the more pertinent task, which is to celebrate the return of the primal heat and light.
B Y D A N S AVA G E My son, who is almost 30 years old, was married four years ago. He just shared with us that for the last three years, he and his wife have been practicing polyamory. They are committed to their relationship but have each had relationships with both men and women. We are trying to get our heads around this, as we come from a more traditional background (we’ve been married 40 years in a loving and respectful relationship), and we find ourselves feeling very sad. We are accepting and nonjudgmental, just trying to understand. He feels that to make love “finite,” to love only one person, is “not being true,” and that their kind of relationship is based on truth. He shared that his wife was the first one to broach this idea – and after many deep conversations, he eventually overcame his jealousy and is embracing this practice. They do not have children or plan to have children. I asked my son if he’s happy, and he says he is. Sad Mama
If your son says he’s happy, you should believe him and be happy for him. It’s unfortunate that your son framed the news about his choices and his marriage in what sounds like a clumsy critique of your choices and your marriage. There’s nothing necessarily “finite,” untruthful, limiting or dishonest about monogamy. If that’s what two people want, and it makes those two people happy, that’s great. Monogamy is what you and your husband wanted, it’s what made you and your husband happy, and it worked for your marriage. You could see your son’s choice to be nonmonogamous as a rejection of everything you modeled for him, or you could see his choice as modeled on the fundamental bedrock stuff that informed the choice you made. Your son and his wife are doing what they want, they’re doing what makes them happy, and they’re doing what works for their marriage There are lots of people out there in happy, fulfilling open/poly relationships, and lots of people out there in happy, fulfilling monogamous relationships. (And lots of miserable people in both kinds of relationships.) There are also lots of people in happy, fulfilling monogamous relationships they will one day choose to open, and lots of people in happy, fulfilling nonmonogamous relationships they will one day choose to close. It’s happiness, consent and mutual respect that matters. If your son is happy, you should be happy for him. But if he states – or clumsily implies – that you and his dad couldn’t be happy because you’re not doing the same thing he and his wife are doing, you tell him from nonmonogamous me that he’s full of nonmonogamous shit. Two pieces of recommended reading: the book Open: Love, Sex, and Life in an Open Marriage by Jenny Block, and an informative interview poly activist and frequent Savage Lovecast guest Diana Adams did with the Atlantic. But I don’t think you need to do a whole lot of homework about this. Love your son, respect his choices, don’t blame or shame his wife and be kind to any partners they introduce you to. Having a poly kid is a lot simpler than you think. Many years ago, a bizarre (for me) sexual incident happened to me, and while I’ve largely

laughed it off with no traumatic effects, the incident has always puzzled me. I’m a straight man in a good, loving marriage with no sexual issues to report. I was off on a golf weekend with a bunch of über-hetero buddies. We stayed in a condo that didn’t have enough beds for everyone, so I ended up sharing a bed with an ex-marine. In the middle of the night, I thought my girlfriend was waking me up with a blowjob, and a damn fine one at that. However, as I gradually became awake, I realized the mouth on my penis wasn’t my girlfriend’s. I called this guy’s name, and – this is the interesting part – he sprang up suddenly, like I just woke him up. I was also a little afraid, because he was a big guy who could have easily pummeled me to death out of embarrassment. But he jumped out of bed, went into the bathroom and gargled before coming back into bed. Neither of us said a word afterward about what happened. Needless to say, I didn’t sleep too well after that. (And frankly, I was a little offended by the gargling.) So the question is: Can you fellate in your sleep? Can you sleep-blow and still be a straight guy? Blown Latently One Wild Night
Sexsomnia is a real thing but it’s an exceedingly rare thing. Closeted guys are a lot more common, BLOWN, and guys who seem über-hetero are often more successfully closeted than your lighterin-the-loafer guys. Three other details lead me to believe this was a crime/blowjob of opportunity: It’s typically pretty difficult to wake a sleepwalker/ sleep-blower (it takes more than calling out a name), the skills on display during the incident (it takes practice to give a “damn fine” blowjob), and his actions after he woke up with your dick in his mouth (rushing to the bathroom to gargle) smack of overcompensation. I have no disagreement with what you said to letter writer WHIFFING (the man who wanted to know how to broach the subject of a female partner’s unpleasant vaginal odor). But I wanted to add something that seems to be largely unknown: A common side effect of long-term SSRI use is that the scent and amount of sweat can change to be offensive and copious. While it’s worth getting checked out if the person is unaware of the cause of an offensive groin smell, sometimes the cause turns out to be something the person is not willing to change because of the benefit it brings to their life. I’ve been in this position. Nothing I did to treat the sweating made a difference, and my intimacy with my partner really suffered. We could basically be intimate only after I just showered; it took months for my partner even to bring it up. When I finally discovered the sweating in a list of side effects in a medical app, it was quickly confirmed by my prescriber as common but not talked about because it’s not physically harmful, so other SSRI users may not be aware of the connection.
