advancing athens Well, the giant Selig project finally gets the green light. It will probably have a bad effect on downtown, providing more cookie-cutter, bland, chain businesses fueled by ads on national TV—the antithesis of what we like to think Athens is all about. No surprises there, especially from a county commission that built a parking deck and filled its ground-floor commercial spaces with chain businesses to the exclusion of anything local. (I know: their business partner does the booking, but still… ) Of course, the development of Athens has always been driven by commercial interests. The Classic City grew up initially to sell stuff to the faculty and students and provide housing for them, so really not much has changed. The downtown we admire replaced stately mansions that make preservationists weep at what was torn down to make way for mercantile emporia. And the same is true all over town, as the large old houses became too much for the smaller, aging families, who sold them to avoid the taxes and the upkeep. Without the fraternities and sororities we’d have even fewer of them left. Was there some inherently better sense of design that caused the merchants to build well made red brick buildings downtown? Or was it just the cheapest and safest material at the time? Was it just natural bad taste when so many of those buildings were modernized during the ‘60s with metal facades over the brick? What accounts for the proliferation of beige brick and tan trim in our present Athens (and university) appearance? Just think how Athens would look now if the construction of just the past five years had used red brick instead of all this stuff out of the Bland New World pattern book. The Holiday Inn sign that used to be considered the No. 1 example of garish commercial design is fast becoming as much a classic of the ’50s as the ’55 Chevy. If Holiday Inn brought it back, would we applaud or boo? Is there any chance that we could actually have design standards that would protect not only the already-built environment but the next one, too? And who would determine those design standards? Would it be somebody cool enough to appreciate the old Holiday Inn sign, or would it just be somebody who sees nothing wrong with building every new infill development to look like it was built in 1890? Many of us value local businesses but many of us, too, prefer the known quantity of Wendy’s to the better taste of White Tiger. As long as the Athens economy is driven by the students, their tastes will ultimately determine what is built here. You know they’re going to love Selig City as much as they love those chains in our city parking deck. They don’t care who owns it or what color the brick is. It’s useless to argue that Athens would be richer if we still had the Victorian mansions along Thomas Street instead of the Banner-Herald. The mantra is that when Georgia Square Mall opened in 1980 it sucked all the business out of downtown, leaving empty buildings and cheap rents for the nascent music scene. Actually, only the main stores, Macy’s, Belk and J.C. Penney, moved to the mall. The only local business that moved out there from downtown was Rosenthal’s Shoes. It killed Rosenthal’s, and of course those that didn’t move suffered mightily, too. Now, the new Oconee mall could have the same effect on Georgia Square and the outlying stores. Nobody knew back then that there was a music scene just waiting to happen and that it would transform downtown Athens. Nobody knows what’s next for downtown now. Suppose the University of Georgia is just before morphing into an online school, where student and faculty presence on campus is drastically reduced. What does that mean for downtown and for Selig? Maybe Selig City will become the next abandoned retail spot, giving rise to the next music scene—with a level path to campus, of course. Pete McCommons editor@flagpole.com

Commissioner Jerry NeSmith raised a host of policy and procedural questions at the meeting about the rail-trail and the TCC map, all explained away by Planning Director Brad Griffin under questioning by Commissioner Andy Herod.

capitol impact updates on old stories Major League Baseball players will be taking a midseason break for the All-Star Game, so we’ll take our own midseason break and catch up on developments in some of the stories highlighted in earlier columns. Construction is proceeding on a new football stadium for Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank that will be partly financed with $200 million from Atlanta’s pot of hotel-motel tax revenues. Common Cause Georgia is still fighting that questionable use of the taxpayers’ money by launching a petition drive to put the issue on this fall’s city election ballot. It’s a long shot, but if Common Cause could obtain the signatures of 35,000 Atlanta voters, they would force a referendum to amend the city charter so that hotel-motel tax funds could never be used to pay for a football stadium. There has been a controversy down on Jekyll Island over the revision of a master plan for the island’s future development. The Jekyll Island Authority wants to count marshland as part of the island’s acreage, which would allow expanded commercial development. Environmentalists are adamantly opposed. Attorney General Sam Olens offered an opinion that marshland can be counted as “land� for the purposes of allowing more commercial development. Environmental groups are preparing to file lawsuits and reminding their members that Olens’ name will be on the ballot next year when he runs for another term. The attorney general was also part of a three-person commission that decided whether state Rep. Tyrone Brooks (D-Atlanta) could keep his job as a legislator while facing criminal fraud charges in a federal indictment. Olens, along with state Rep. Stacey Abrams (D-Atlanta) and Sen. Steve Henson (D-Tucker), voted to allow Brooks to remain in office on the grounds that the federal indictment did not interfere with his ability to carry out his duties as a lawmaker. The Georgia Democratic Party recently found itself in an awkward position when

state chairman Mike Berlon resigned and an election was called to select his replacement. The party’s charter requires that the chairman and first vice chair must be of different sexes and racial backgrounds, which meant that only white males could qualify to run for chairman in the special election. For a party that has often criticized Republicans for their lack of diversity, it was an ironic development to be holding a “whites-only� election for chairman. Democratic Party officials have since modified their position and are allowing anyone, regardless of race or gender, to run in that Aug. 31 election. Earlier this year, the General Assembly debated the issue of extending a provider fee paid into the Medicaid program by hospitals—a fee known more widely as the “bed tax.� There was a general agreement among Gov. Nathan Deal and the legislative leadership that the bed tax should be extended so that the Medicaid program did not go broke. Legislators did not want to go on record, however, as voting for any kind of tax, even one as badly needed as the Medicaid bed tax. The Legislature thus passed a bill that transferred the authority for levying and collecting this Medicaid tax over to the state Board of Community Health—an executive branch agency whose members are appointed by the governor. The Georgia Constitution is very clear on this issue—it requires all bills raising taxes to originate in the House of Representatives. This Medicaid tax bill originated in the Senate and would seem to be a clear violation of the Constitution. The bed tax would probably be thrown out by the courts if anyone bothered to mount a legal challenge, but no one has filed a lawsuit to date. The state Board of Community Health subsequently voted to impose this new incarnation of the Medicaid bed tax, which took effect on July 1.

Local art at Jittery Joe’s Roasting Co. after having engineers look at the building, they were told that that interior structure would not survive a move—numerous interior structural elements would have to be added to make the building moveable and not fall apart mid-move, Mustard said. If the building can be stabilized enough to be moved and Crowley’s plan to create a park across the street with the building in it comes to fruition, Mustard said Jittery Joe’s may very well be interested in moving back into the building. But they need to know whether or not this plan will actually happen in the very near future, as they must sign a lease soon. So, there are three potential options for the building: It is moved across the street and Jittery Joe’s moves back in; it is moved across the street and used for another purpose; or it

is demolished. Regardless of the outcome, the vast majority of the artwork in the building can be removed, and Mustard says he plans to take it all with him if and when the roaster relocates. While I think most of us would like to see Jittery Joe’s remain in the building and moved into a park across the street, it is possible that the timing might not work out. If that happens, the structure being adapted to another use would be a great alternative— that way it would remain a part of the architectural and cultural history of Athens. While it may not look like much, it is already a part of our history and should not be demolished and forgotten. Stella Smith

Thanks to some SPLOST money, Athens now has two “splash pads” to help you cool off— one at the newly renovated Rocksprings Pool (291 Henderson Extension), and the other at East Athens Community Park (200 Trail Creek St.). Granted, if your kids are older than 10, the trip to Gainesville might be worth it. Admission is $8 per person, and there are two water slides and a lazy river. But for younger kids, or for some cheap thrills, the splash pads are the way to go. Admission to each is $1 per

Note that the Rocksprings splash pad is closed Mondays, while the East Athens splash pad is closed Tuesdays.

UOWN won the grant in 2011, when Paddle Georgia participants explored the Middle Oconee and Oconee rivers. The organization then spent the next two years deciding what to do with the money. Plans to build on the North Oconee River fell through, but the Upper Oconee Watershed Network blue trail committee, chaired by Big Dog’s On the River owner Terry Stephens, decided the section of the Middle Oconee River that runs through Ben Burton Park would be a more immediately practical location for the first access point.

easier for groups of paddlers to keep up with one another and provide a safe space for children’s water play, Wright says. And, Ingle says, building a blue trail—and eventually a whole network of trails—in Athens may boost the local economy by acting as a boon to the city’s tourism industry. “I used to say all the time as a student here that Athens would be the greatest place in the world if there was a mountain or an ocean,” Kirsche says. “The outdoor opportunities are less apparent here, but they are present.” Sarah Anne Perry

movie dope Some releases may not be showing locally this week. • indicates new review 42 (PG-13) Sports biopics are largely interchangeable. Still, something about the challenges faced by Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) as he broke the color barrier in professional baseball feels so much more singular than your average true tale of successfully bucking the odds. Boseman’s performance is not a skilled mimicry like so many other portrayals of famous persons; he imbues Robinson with such strength of character and composure. AFTER EARTH (PG-13) “Excruciatingly boring” sums up After Earth. Did you watch Castaway and think the film would be better with Jaden Smith substituting for Tom Hanks and Jaden’s papa, Will, for Wilson? Then enjoy this bland hunk of science fiction. After their spaceship crash lands, a father and son (the Smiths) are stranded on Earth, abandoned by humanity years earlier. This flick should have been The Smith Family Robinson; instead, it’s another shovelful of dirt in M. Night Shyamalan’s cinematic grave. BEFORE MIDNIGHT (R) Jesse and Celine (Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy) have come a long ways from 1995’s Before Sunrise. Our third glimpse into Jesse and Celine’s lives paints a realistic landscape of adult relationships founded upon love. They care deeply for each other, yet their closeness belies a growing distance. Many viewing pairs will see themselves, arguing and rearguing their own alternatingly petty and weighty complaints. THE BIG WEDDING (R) Justin Zackham’s Americanization of France’s Mon frère se marie—in which a longdivorced couple (Diane Keaton and Robert De Niro) must act married for their adopted son’s wedding—is populated by offensive, meanly unfunny characters differentiated by their virginity or lack thereof. This sinking ship of a movie has nary one likable, nuanced character to grab onto like a life raft. Avoid these nuptials at all costs. THE BLING RING (R) Sofia Coppola’s fifth feature stylishly recounts the fascinating real-life story of a gang of privileged L.A. teens that used their Internet savvy to rob the vacant homes of celebrities. Rebecca (Katie Chang), Mark (Israel Broussard), Nicki (Emma Watson), Sam (Taissa Farmiga) and Chloe (Claire Julien) steal over $3

million in clothes, jewelry and cash before being caught. Considering the film’s content, Coppola could have made a stronger statement about our celebrity culture and the state of the modern teenager. Instead, she seems content in merely portraying conspicuous consumption gone wild. (Ciné) THE CROODS (PG) A family of cavemen—dad Grug (v. Nicolas Cage), mom Ugga (v. Catherine Keener), teen daughter Eep (v. Emma Stone), dumb son Thunk (v. Clarke Duke), feral baby Sandy and grandma (v. Cloris Leachman)—are forced on a cross-country road trip after their cave is destroyed by the impending “end of the world.” Fortunately, Eep meets Guy (v. Ryan Reynolds), whose developed brain filled with “ideas” might just help them all survive. • DESPICABLE ME 2 (PG) As far as animated sequels go, Despicable Me 2 has more creative life in it than might first be thought; it’s way better than Cars 2. Gru (v. Steve Carell) may no longer be a master criminal, utilizing his freeze rays and other diabolical inventions to raise his three adopted daughters—Margo (v. Miranda Cosgrove), Edith (v. Dana Geier) and Agnes (v. Elsie Fisher). When a new super villain steals a dangerous, experimental serum, the Anti Villain League – represented by sweet potential love interest Lucy (v. Kristen Wiig) – enlist Gru’s assistance. Watching this enjoyable kiddie flick with a kid definitely increases the appeal of the little yellow Minions, whose roles have been enlarged with their own spinoff in the works for 2014. Despicable Me 2 has no shot at surpassing expectations like its underdog predecessor, and its appeal to anyone over ten probably depends on one’s tolerance for the Minions. Still, it’s a funny movie for kids and parents. On a hot or rainy summer day, that’s more than good enough. THE EAST (PG-13) Private investigator Sarah Moss (Brit Marling) is assigned to infiltrate an eco-terrorist group who targets large organizations. After convincing them of her sincerity, she begins to find the group’s leader (Alexander Skarsgard) and message appealing. With Ellen Page.

director Noah Baumbach (The Squid & the Whale), and it could be an indie smash. Think “Girls” on the big screen. Think, maybe, even, an Annie Hall for a new generation. Thijnk, at least, how hard it is to find a decent, affordable apartment in Brooklyn and beyond. Frances (Gerwig) works for a dance troupe, though she’s not a dancer, and goes all in for her dreams. With Mickey Sumner, Adam Driver (“Girls”) and Grace Gummer. FRUITVALE STATION (R) Fruitvale Station enters theaters having established quite a pedigree, picking up Sundance’s prestigious Grand Jury Prize (and Audience Award) plus the Best First Film Award at the Cannes Film Festival. Writer-director Ryan Coogler based his feature debut on the real life events that occurred to Oscar Grant, played by “Friday Night Lights”’ Michael B. Jordan, on the last day of 2008. GROWN UPS 2 (PG-13) Adam Sandler gets the old gang—Kevin James, Chris Rock and David Spade—

up with four brothers. The Heat may not be smoking, but after a barren first act, it gets going, and it gets pretty darn funny. THE HUNT (R) Television’s Hannibal Lecter, Mads Mikkelsen, won the Best Actor prize at Cannes for his supposedly powerful portrayal of a small town teacher falsely accused of abuse by his best friend’s daughter. Needless to say, his small town neighbors do not react well to this allegation. Director Thomas Vinterberg cofounded the Dogme movement with Lars von Trier; his The Celebration is considered the first film created using the Dogme 95 rules. THE INTERNSHIP (PG-13) As a follow-up to stars Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson’s Wedding Crashers, this movie would have killed in 2007. Of course, the economy hadn’t quite tanked at that point, so the tale of two down-on-their-luck salesmen forced to tackle a Google internship wouldn’t quite have had much relevance. The movie made me feel as if I’d stumbled upon a big budget training video for

Got any of that Poupon stuff? back together for a sequel to his second biggest hit ever. Sandler’s Lenny Feder moves his family (Salma Hayek returns as his wife) back to his hometown, where things are just as crazy as in the big city. The cast has gotten bigger, literally, adding Shaquille O’Neal. Team Jacob-ites can gawk at what is sure to be a shirtless Taylor Lautner. THE HANGOVER PART III (R) Gone are the weddings, the hangovers and the amnesia. The Wolfpack—Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms) and Alan (Zach Galifianakis)—now find themselves thrust directly into a Charlie Huston crime novel. Give writer-director Todd Phillips and crew credit for the old college try, but recapturing the comic freshness of the first Hangover once, much less twice, has proven too Herculean a humorous task. THE HEAT (R) Uptight FBI agent Sarah Ashburn (Sandra Bullock) needs the help of foulmouthed, unpopular Boston cop Shannon Mullins (Melissa McCarthy) to take down a dangerous drug lord. Bullock and McCarthy don’t have Fey/Pohler chemistry. McCarthy flails too wildly early, while Bullock’s too tightly wound for comedy. Nevertheless, enough cannot be said about how refreshing it is to watch a buddy cop comedy starring two women. Unlike a sillier, lesser comedy, writer Katie Dippold and Bridesmaids director Paul Feig never explain away Ashburn and Mullins’ tough, brash exteriors as shields needed to survive their male dominated profession. Ashburn’s just weird and Mullins grew

new Google employees. Sadly, most training videos are unintentionally funnier. All you have to do with this movie is what the movie folks at Google themselves actually should have done: say no. • THE LONE RANGER (PG-13) Is the Lone Ranger that hard to get right? This second failed attempt to bring the masked man back to the big screen (do you recall 1981’s Legend of the Lone Ranger?) reunites Johnny Depp with his Pirates of the Caribbean director Gore Verbinski for another bloated blockbuster that misses the mark. Depp’s Indian savant Tonto is one of the oater’s strengths; the star swaggers and mugs like a silent film star. Otherwise, this over-plotted, overlong origin story establishes the wrong tone for its masked hero. With Tonto providing the comic relief, John Reid should have been a one-track-minded vigilante of justice—the Lone Ranger as a cowboy Batman. As John Reid, Armie Hammer stammers and stumbles along like Clark Kent or Jack Burton. He’s not a natural Wild West lawman; he leaves a lot of the heavy lifting to Tonto. Verbinski and his team of scripters play everything for slapstick laughs, despite slaughtering hundreds, including an entire Native American tribe. The final action spectacle aboard two moving trains, scored to the “William Tell Overture,” ends the movie properly, but it’s not enough to right the wrongs done to this classic character. MAN OF STEEL (PG-13) The extended time spent with Superman’s

birth parents on dying Krypton is the film’s strongest, most original segment. The middle chunk, retelling Kal-El’s transformation from a hunky Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) into Superman, intriguingly tweaks a well-known origin with the benefit of fatherly wisdom from Kevin Costner’s Jonathan Kent. Despite some well-executed set pieces pitting Superman against fellow Kryptonian General Zod (Michael Shannon) and his alien army, the final act never fully takes flight. Instead, the blockbuster soars in fits and starts, seeming most confident in its final frames than the previous hour and a half of repetitive conflict. MONSTERS UNIVERSITY (G) So let’s call it a slump. Cars 2 was a clunker; Brave was good verging on really good but not close to great; and Monsters University lacks the Pixar pop of their undeniably great features (Up, Wall-E, Toy Story 3). In this prequel to Monsters, Inc., we learn how Mike (v. Billy Crystal) and Sully (v. John Goodman) met. Apparently, the two scarers didn’t start as best buds. First, they were scaring rivals at Monsters University. This Revenge of the Monster Nerds doesn’t creatively bend college life for monsters as one would expect from Pixar. Fortunately, the animation, especially the creature design, is as lush and lifelike as ever. MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING (PG-13) Joss Whedon can do no wrong in my eyes, so the idea of the creator of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and the writer-director of a tiny film called The Avengers doing Shakespeare warms my film-loving heart. The wonderful wordsmith that is Whedon adapting that other guy, aka the Bard, seems a match made in heaven; just watch the trailer if you doubt me. The cast is filled with familiar faces from the Whedonverse, including (but not limited to) Amy Acker, Alexis Denisof, Reed Diamond and Fran Kranz. (Ciné) MUD (PG-13) A coming of age tale set in the disappearing wilds of the small town south, Mud aims high, as director Jeff Nichols attempts to channel Mark Twain, and hits the target square in the bull’s eye. Two teens—Ellis (Tye Sheridan, Tree of Life) and Neckbone (Jacob Lofland)—discover a boat in a tree. They also discover Matthew McConaughey’s Mud, a fugitive living in the boat in the tree, while he waits to escape with the love of his life, Juniper (Reese Witherspoon). Mud watches like a work of modern literature, capturing the last gasps of a dying culture as one boy becomes a man. This an awesome picture with a lot of character and, ultimately, a lot of action. Catch it before it’s out of here.(Ciné) NOW YOU SEE ME (PG-13) Four street magicians (Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco) are enlisted in a mysterious, magical plan to do something, but nobody is really sure what until the last reel. Hot on their heels is a dogged FBI Agent, Dylan Rhodes (Mark Ruffalo), and a debunker of magicians (Morgan Freeman). Now You See Me is as entertaining as it is eye-rollingly contrived. Clash of the Titans’ Louis Leterrier keeps the illusions moving along too fast for anyone to see through the script’s tricks until the woeful reveal. OBLIVION (PG-13) After fighting off an alien invasion via nuclear

destruction, humanity has moved offplanet to Titan, a moon of Saturn. Two people, tech Jack Harper (Tom Cruise) and his communications liaison Victoria (Andrea Riseborough), have been left behind. Tron: Legacy director Joseph Kosinski co-scripted Oblivion from his own graphic novel, and despite its derivative pieces, the whole narrative coheres rather well. PACIFIC RIM (PG-13) Guillermo del Toro’s first directorial credit since 2008’s Hellboy 2 looks like a doozy. Under attack from giant monsters called kaiju, humanity fights back with giant robots piloted by Idris Elba and Charlie Hunnam from FX’s “Sons of Anarchy.” Though not an established property, del Toro’s big budget sci-fi spectacle has the potential to be the summer’s most exciting movie. PAIN & GAIN (R) With the subtlety of an 18 wheeler, Pain & Gain chronicles the true story of three bodybuilders— Daniel Lugo (Mark Wahlberg), Paul Doyle (Dwayne Johnson) and Adrian Doorbal (Anthony Mackie)—who turn to crime in order to achieve the American Dream. If you were hoping director Michael Bay had a quirky indie crime caper in him, he doesn’t. The film is too long, sledgehammeringly artless and mindnumbingly dumb. THE PURGE (R) In the future, America is a paradise of low unemployment and low crime, all thanks to the Purge instituted by the New Founding Fathers. One night every year, all laws are suspended, and citizens may empty themselves of pent-up rage and frustration by doing whatever violence they want. Mostly, the Purge affects the poor. But this Purge is different, as the Sandins family’s young son lets in a bloody stranger, who is being hunted by a creepy pack of rich kids that want their prey returned to them. Despite the slight bait-and-switch, this flick is a fine example of how to do an exploitation-thriller right—emphasis on tension, intimidation and bloody violence. SINGIN’ IN THE RAIN (NR) 1952. Gene Kelly and Debbie Reynolds star in this musical comedy about a major Hollywood movie studio’s troubles with transitioning from silent films to talkies. This is just an all-time classic and worth seeing for Kelly’s memorable dancing, if nothing else. Part of the Summer Classic Movie Series. (Ciné) THIS IS THE END (R) This pot-fueled “apoc-comedic” nightmare from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg is far funnier than most meta-comedies starring comic actors as themselves. On the night of James Franco’s housewarming party, the seeming Rapture occurs, leaving behind this band of famous faces (Danny McBride, Jonah Hill, Jay Baruchel). Turning to and on one another, Judgment Day brings out the best, worst and funniest in writers Rogen/Goldberg and their cast. These guys make the day of reckoning a fun one. • V/H/S/2 (R) Using the frame (directed by Simon Barrett) of a private investigator searching for a missing college student, V/H/S/2 includes four short films from Adam Wingard, Blair Witch co-director Eduardo Sanchez, Gareth Huw Edwards (The Raid: Redemption) and Jason Eisener (Hobo with a Shotgun). Wingard’s opener, “Phase I Clinical Trials,” is a nifty piece of body horror, imaginatively shot as if the camera is the character’s eye. The weakest short, Sanchez and Gregg Hale’s “A Ride in the Park,” abandons its cool central conceit—a POV zombie attack—and questionably edits in other footage. Edwards and co-director Timo Tjahjanto turn in the sequel’s highlight, “Safe Haven.” After going on in a seemingly too long, poorly establishing exposition, this Indonesian Rosemary’s Baby goes crazy in its ballsy climax. Eisener’s entry, “Alien

Abduction Slumber Party,� is the film’s scary heart, as a parentless day for some siblings ends with a violent alien abduction. While V/H/S may be scarier, its shorter successor is a more enjoyable, easier watch. WHITE HOUSE DOWN (PG-13) In White House, Channing Tatum stars as D.C. cop John Cale, who must protect the President (Jamie Foxx) and rescue his precocious daughter (Joey King) after terrorists take over the White House. Disaster master Roland Emmerich stages the destruction with his usual crowd-pleasing clarity, and the movie, written by The Amazing

Spider-Man’s James Vanderbilt, has a sense of humor about it. Here’s hoping the Confederate Air Force doesn’t take it seriously and start fomenting copycat plans. You can’t be too careful about these things. WORLD WAR Z (PG-13) The biggest zombie (and arguably horror) movie ever made is better than expected. Former U.N. employee Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) is sent around the globe to discover the source of the zombie pandemic threatening to wipe out humanity. One-time Bond director Marc Forster and his stable of writers turn Max “Son of Mel� Brooks’ oral

history of the zombie conflict into a more focused, traditional “one hero must race time to save the world,� and it works. Minor quibbles range from a lack of blood (blame the need for a PG-13 rating to recoup the massive budget) and way too fast, superstrong zombies; still, it’s way more exciting than the second season of “The Walking Dead.� And why shouldn’t zombies get faster and stronger over time? Everybody else does who hass the opportunity for a better diet.

quicksand THE EAST (PG-13) A corporate private security agent who used to work for the FBI, Jane (Brit Marling), goes deep undercover to infiltrate a group of anarchist eco-terrorists called The East. The tightly-knit organization, led by the handsome, charismatic Benji (Alexander SkarsgĂĽrd), targets heads of companies that have reaped blood money from the destruction of the planet through environmental disasters, dishing out some Old Testament-style punishment as retribution. Jane, a Christian, seeks to dismantle the organization from the inside posing as Sarah, reporting her findings

(the two also collaborated on the 2011 indie Sound of My Voice) focus on The East’s various plots to exact vengeance on those personally responsible for their environmental misdeeds, the movie begins to buckle beneath the strain of its plot-heavy Hollywood clichÊs and illogical narrative twists. Unfortunately, it also lets the character of Sarah get lost in the narrative momentum, losing sight of her internal struggles along the way. As The East careens into its final act, abandoning its initial political complexity for patented Hollywood apolitical ambiguity, the movie flatlines.

But Sarah’s emotions about the group and her allegiance to the security firm become blurred as she gets to know the various members of The East better and begins to sympathize with their motives, though not always their methods. Much like its main character, played by the emotionally placid and cautious Marling, The East never wants to burrow deep inside its subject matter.

Alexander Skarsgürd and Brit Marling. Despite The East’s drawbacks, there is much to savor, particularly the performances by Skarsgürd and Ellen Page, the latter playing one of the most fearlessly committed of the group. Page continues to develop as one of the more interesting actresses working today, generating real humanity into her otherwise underwritten character. Marling, on the other hand, is never believable as the mole. Her performance is too mannered and cold, making it difficult to invest heavily into her character’s psychological transformation. Ultimately, The East is a good effort, but the subject matter could have used a more insightful approach. Derek Hill

Will Cullen Hart

little over two years ago, Glasscrafts guitarist Steven Trimmer began to experience a terrible pain in his abdomen. When the discomfort steadily grew worse, he knew it was time to seek help. He went to a local general practitioner, assuming diagnosis and relief would come quickly. What began instead was an ordeal that would span the next two years of his life and musical career. At that point, Trimmer’s hair reached his shoulders, and his colorful clothing didn’t necessarily meet the standards of the businesscasual working world. Waiting room procedures and paperwork revealed him to the office staff as uninsured—a fact met, he says, with pursed lips and raised eyebrows from the secretary behind the desk. After a brief encounter with the doctor, he was shuffled back out the door with a prescription for an antibiotic. But the pain persisted. Soon, he returned to the doctor’s office, where he was met with even less attention and empathy than his original visit elicited. “[The doctor] would not even take the time to see me or to talk to me,” says Trimmer. “He would come in, talk into a tape recorder and just leave.” An onslaught of referrals followed, as Trimmer’s case was pushed from doctor to doctor without a diagnosis, prescription or procedure to bring him any relief. After taking several rounds of ineffective antibiotics, he grew discouraged. The pain became more acute and began relocating to different areas of his abdomen. It became increasingly difficult for him to sleep, despite the exhausting demands of his band at the time, Grass Giraffes. Trimmer, known by friends for his positivity and enthusiasm, became irritable and anxious while he continued to look for help

from specialists and clinics in both Athens and Atlanta. His funds and his patience were draining away. Dismissing the guitarist’s troubles as psychological, doctors prescribed antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications. “All of my money and resources went into these doctors, and no one wanted to help me,” Trimmer says. “They just put me on Xanax.” Trimmer knew his mental and emotional issues were situational, brought on by a problem that was growing worse without any consequential answers. “It was very humiliating,” he says. “They treated me like I was crazy.” Without any help in sight, and after more than a year of ongoing suffering, Trimmer didn’t know how he could continue living with the pain he was forced to tolerate day in and day out. The demand to pay his medical bills and to play music became one in the same, and Trimmer pressed on musically. In the midst of the chaos and ongoing pain and frustration, Grass Giraffes recorded an album and began a cross-country tour. Through sheer will and dedication, Trimmer made it through most of the shows. But then he woke up in Nashville, covered in his own blood. He was taken to the emergency room. With the persuasion of his family, he found a surgeon willing to help. He was diagnosed, quickly and correctly. An abscess had grown in his digestive tract, and had finally torn. Trimmer needed surgery immediately. “It was at a crisis point, where I really could have died from what was going on,” he says. After the surgery, Trimmer regained his health and vitality but struggled with regret over the time he lost to crippling pain. “It was just hard, because, the problem that I had, it was able to be diagnosed that quickly by someone who was just willing to take the time and talk,” he says. “And to be

treated by him not like I’m crazy or insane, but just to look at me and treat me like I’m human—not just like a piece of refuse.” Trimmer is one of innumerable Athens musicians who have faced terrible illnesses while uninsured. Elephant 6 founder Will Cullen Hart, of the Olivia Tremor Control and Circulatory System, has dealt for years with multiple sclerosis. And, like Trimmer, he doesn’t have insurance. Facing the possibility of financial collapse, Will’s wife, Kelly Hart, sought out philanthropic assistance. (Full disclosure: Kelly is a Flagpole employee but Will is not on her insurance plan). After diligent searching and a tedious application process, the Harts were fortunate to find help through Pfizer Helpful Answers, MS LifeLines and The Multiple Sclerosis Association of America. “He has two prescriptions that aren’t covered, so we pay out-of-pocket for those,” says Kelly. “We also have to pay office visits and miscellaneous stuff out-of-pocket, because he’s not insured. So, he doesn’t go to the doctor as often as he should, just because it gets expensive. But he’d hardly get any treatment at all if it weren’t for these programs that subsidize his meds.” Will is also a part of a low-income assistance program at Athens Regional Medical Center, which the couple only learned about through a friend who was employed by the hospital. Despite significant help, Will’s medications and trips to the doctors still cost hundreds of dollars per month, and sometimes the treatment he needs is simply not an option, financially. On one occasion, Will ended up hospitalized after tripping, hitting his head and breaking his wrist. ARMC’s low-income assistance program covered 95 percent of the cost of stitches on his forehead, X-rays and a CT scan,

which would have cost approximately $5,000 otherwise. But the hospital would not put a cast on his arm, and would only refer him to an orthopedic doctor, where an appointment alone would have cost $250. Will had no choice but to let his wrist heal on its own. or these uninsured musicians, there is potential relief on the horizon. As the doctor’s offices and hospitals of Athens shift to accommodate the students of the medical partnership between Georgia Regents University and University of Georgia (GRU/ UGA), a more philanthropic spirit may prevent the horrors that Trimmer endured and the financial burden that the Harts feel daily. The small body of GRU/UGA medical students is extending into the underserved areas of the community. The students are required to enroll in a Community Health course, in which they work with local institutions to research and design interventions addressing health related problems in the area. Among the programs in place is a partnership with Nuçi’s Space, the nonprofit health and music resource center that provides affordable consultations with a volunteer doctor to uninsured local musicians, among other services. The Nuçi’s project was particularly attractive to eight students with an interest in the bustling local creative community, who signed up to continue a research project started by past GRU/UGA students that had been intended to characterize local musicians’ attitudes toward healthcare. “The musician community is so different from other populations, and is not a wellunderstood or studied population,” says Sara Whytle, a student on the research team. “Their lifestyle is very different from other people their age. Most of the musicians we initially interviewed had a clear understanding of

how to live a healthy lifestyle, and what they needed to stay healthy and out of the ER… Yet they didn’t have health insurance that would cover ER visits, and they did not think that going to a regular doctor would prevent them from having to go to the ER.” Previous research groups had attempted to both increase musicians’ access to the Athens Nurses Clinic and promote physician participation in Nuçi’s Space’s existing program through the circulation of an educational video. Most measures of effectiveness suggested that this effort did not succeed. Thus, this year’s students were also interested in determining what an effective intervention might look like. Through a series of surveys, the students attempted to figure out what musicians felt were the greatest barriers preventing access to healthcare. Respondents reported that they didn’t have insurance or visit doctors regularly because of the high cost. Wait times in doctors’ offices was another major concern, as was the need to schedule appointments in the seemingly distant future. The musicians reported an issue with the setting of doctors’ offices, and a preference that services be offered in a comfortable, accessible environment. They didn’t perceive many medical services to be worthy STEVEN TRIMMER

of their time and money. The musicians also indicated that they made most of their choices regarding healthcare only after seeking the advice of friends, family and the Internet. The medical students determined that, because of these factors, most local musicians ultimately give little attention to preventative healthcare. “There may also be some differences in the way the musician community views ‘health’,” said Joseph Vinson, another medical student involved in the project. “More of an emphasis on psychological health and freedom from work-limiting illness, for example, than having low blood pressure readings or abstaining from tobacco use.” Aside from the lack of health insurance, Whytle says, many musicians were unaware of the cheap and free healthcare options available to them. “I did find that a lot of musicians knew Nuçi’s Space and what they offered,” he says, “but they did not know about the new health partnership Nuçi’s Space had with the Athens Nurses Clinic, which allows Nuçi’s doctors to host clinic hours for musicians.” he Affordable Care Act may provide answers for many musicians who will, in theory, have access to more costeffective healthcare through insurance exchanges (which will be set up by the federal

government in Georgia). Other new policies provide that access to healthcare must be provided regardless of pre-existing conditions. Young musicians can remain on their parents’ healthcare plans until they are 26. Musicians who can demonstrate being below a certain income level may qualify for government subsidies to afford insurance, and insurance companies must cover what are deemed “essential services.” But the wheels of change are slow moving, particularly in a state that is opposed to the federal program. It is likely that Georgia will be short-staffed for the task of enrolling uninsured residents once the insurance exchanges open in October of this year. With 1.9 million Georgia citizens uninsured, 4,000 people would have to be enrolled daily in order for everyone to gain coverage in the first enrollment period. And the success of the exchanges hinges on widespread enrollment. Without a large pool of consumers, the insurance companies will not be able to provide affordable insurance premiums, leaving musicians in precisely the predicament they are in now. There are still other potential answers. Athens Health Network is a nonprofit that will provide low cost healthcare options for the uninsured and underinsured in Athens-Clarke County; it hopes to begin enrollment in spring of 2014. Modeled after the highly successful Access to Healthcare Network in Reno, NV, the program will essentially function like Costco or Sam’s Club—members pay a low monthly rate to receive health services at a substantially discounted price. AHN is composed of multiple stakeholders in the local healthcare community, including medical providers and resource agents. The network aims to connect these entities and supply them with the resources and information needed to succeed as a public healthcare system. In its preparatory phase, the organization is working to identify what the gaps in healthcare service are and how they can fill them. For this reason, AHN Executive Director Allie Chambers has taken an interest in the musician community in Athens. Chambers was peripherally involved with the research performed at Nuçi’s Space, and she helped form the survey and questions for the focus groups. “Athens musicians are especially a target population,” Chambers says. “They have an ability to pay something for their care, and just need a system to access care that meets their need and income level.” She hopes that AHN will be that system. By functioning on a “shared responsibility model,” doctors and hospitals will benefit by getting at least some money up front, rather than requiring the time and staff to deal with the paperwork involved in traditional billing and collections. Musicians like Trimmer and Hart will, of course, benefit from receiving affordable care and being able to stay out of overburdened emergency rooms. For now, many in Athens’ storied music community continue to suffer. Although the cliché of the starving artist may be a romantic idea, the reality is continually bleak for these musicians who cannot find the resources necessary to dedicate themselves to both their health and their careers. Above all, even here, there remains a stigma against many of those whose music enriches our culture. “I really got the runaround when I was looking for help,” says Trimmer. “When you don’t have insurance, you’re looked at very differently, and treated very differently.” Jodi Murphy

For Flinching: The pre-order season has opened for the new LP from local vulgo-fave garage-rockers Cars Can Be Blue. Titled Trace the Tension, the album comes courtesy of the band’s longtime home HHBTM Records. The plain ol’ LP is a mere $12, but the deluxe package is $22, and includes the LP, a sticker, a button, a tote bag and a live cassette recording. Presumably, the live recording is of CCBB, but this is exactly the type of situation where I could see them pulling a switcheroo and giving you a tape of, say, people babbling to themselves at the bus station or something. Either way, the LPs will ship in August. In other CCBB news, the band heads back to the UK—this time with all paperwork in order—July 24–Aug. 6. Although there should be several memorable shows, the highlight so far seems to be the band’s Cars Can Be Blue appearance at renowned Derbyshire indie festival Indietracks. Label mates Tunabunny are in the UK at the same time, and will also make an appearance at this event. To get in on the LP action, head to hhbtm.com. Vibes And Stuff: OK, damn if murk daddy flex (Terence Chiyezhan) isn’t the best DJ/producer to spring up in Athens in a good while. Yeah, we’ve mentioned him before in these hallowed pages, but I’ve been playing his new release, MDF, for basically a week, and I’ve just gotta tell y’all to head to murkdaddyflex. bandcamp.com and stream or download it. You can grab it for free or throw some bucks toward the man. This is his second release this year, and sixth overall, if you count demos and early tracks. Although ostensibly promoted simply as “instrumental hip hop,” the album is at least a couple of heads above Chiyezhan’s previous releases—MDF stretches the parameters of the genre into sublime territories. Keep up with him via facebook.com/MurkDaddyFlex. But whatever you do, listen. Find It: There are a few bands in town that I always wish I could see live more often, but things don’t always work out. Among these is Brothers. I first got hooked on their pulsating indie-jangle last summer and am tickled to mention the group’s new EP, Street Names. Most everything on the five-track record was recorded last year at Chase Park Transduction but only reached the public realm a couple of weeks ago. There’s probably a life lesson around here somewhere about how you shouldn’t name your band something that is utterly non-Internet-searchable, but hell, I

also don’t think that should run your life, so never mind. For your convenience, though, I’ll point you toward brothersathens.bandcamp. com for the music, and facebook.com/brothersathens for more information. All Day Dreamtime: I know what you’re thinking. You’re asking yourself, “Is he really going to mention Bandcamp for the third paragraph in a row?” And the answer is, yes, I am. So keep your browser roughly where it is and check out the debut album from Glasscrafts. It’s titled As in See Through Ships, and if you’ve been keeping up with all the Steven Trimmer tracks I’ve pointed you to over these

past few months, you’ll dig it the most. The band pretty much rose on its own after its members shed the on-again/off-again skin of Grass Giraffes—a project which seems, regretfully, to be totally buried now—and the 19 (!) songs on this debut are a total joy to hear. Composed of Trimmer, Robby Casso, Jesse Stinnard and Ted Kuhn, Glasscrafts specializes in non-specific, guitar-based pop that feels as un-self-conscious as it does instantaneous. Enjoy via glasscrafts.bandcamp.com, and follow along at facebook.com/ Glasscraftsmusic. It’s About Time: It’s been literally over two years since dream-pop maestro Tommy Wedge, via his ongoing project, Wedge, has placed his music on a stage. That grievance is being redressed Friday, July 12 at the Caledonia Lounge. Also on the bill this night are Incendiaries and Columbia, SC’s Pan. Wedge’s most recent release was the sunshine-tinged These Thieves EP, which dropped in October of 2012. But the catalog goes back to 2007, and since everything is available at wedge. bandcamp.com (again!), you’d do just fine to spend the week catching up. The most immediate comparisons are the usual suspects— Cocteau Twins, et al.—but that’s really a holdover from last decade, because Wedge’s music is notably lighter and breezier now. You can read a painfully overwritten biography of the project at heavensville.com, but I’d encourage you to just skip ahead to the music and keep on the band to play more by bugging them at facebook.com/wedgemusic.

FLAGPOLE.COM ∙ JULY 10, 2013

flag pole .com

n Urban Dictionary, an anonymous author (“Not Motivatedâ€?) defines “ribbon chaserâ€? thusly: “Someone who does whatever it takes to acquire a ribbon. He will stab his own guys in the back if he has to.â€? The members of local rock band Vespolina are not, let’s make it clear, fame-hungry backstabbers. At all. In fact, they may be overly harmonious—contented, they say, often to a fault. “I think we might suffer from not having stars in our eyes,â€? says bassist Daniel Ray. “We’re these jaded, older townies that don’t have these weird illusions of making it, and contracts, and guarantees.â€? It might surprise you, then, that Ribbon Chaser, the band’s new album, which it will release on vinyl at The World Famous this Friday, boasts the sort of dizzying chutzpah that usually comes with sonic youth. Yet its tonal focus and world-hardened lyrical themes are the obvious product of experience. “This is the most married together that any [of my] songs have been,â€? says Daniel Aaron, the band’s frontman and songwriter. Indeed, particularly for Aaron, whose previous band, Timber, was a fairly by-the-numbers alt-country outfit (that group also featured several current members of Vespolina, including Ray), Ribbon Chaser is a butterfly moment. He has assumed the role of frontman convincingly and with gusto; his startling tenor, now a cross between Lambchop’s Kurt Wagner and The National’s Matt Berninger, is both warmer and more urgent than ever. Meanwhile, Aaron’s lyricism has taken a dark and symbolic turn. Everywhere on the album, there are physical omens: in “The Wrong Way,â€? he sings of “rosaries swinging from the rearviewâ€? and “broken mirrors and breaking heartsâ€? within one tense, expressive minute (the rosary returns in “Unwoundâ€?; at one point in our interview, Aaron jokes about his “Catholic guiltâ€?). He admits that his songs tend toward darkness. (“They’re always kind of about suicide,â€? he half-chuckles.) But the explosive stories therein resemble vignettes rather than diary entries. “I’ve dealt with depression, like every kid growing up in the suburbs,â€? Aaron says. Still, he explains that his songwriting is largely impersonal. “Nothing is based 100 percent on real stories‌ They’re just sort of moments of what could be. Like if you just sat and watched 15 minutes of a movie without really knowing [what’s happening]. You can tell what’s going on on the screen, like it looks pretty, the sun is setting, they’re saying their last goodbyes. But it’s not a story, story.â€? As an example, Aaron cites “Throwing

Sparks,� Ribbon Chaser’s single-worthy sixth track, which features three verses, each one a separate narrative. He explains that the verses are “in and of themselves not totally related, but you could make them related, if you wanted to.� That vague but insistent sense of connection runs throughout the album, down to the song titles themselves (that “The Wrong Way� leads into “Direction� hardly seems like an accident). Within Vespolina, there is an obvious connection among bandmates, too, and it’s significant that, despite the bleak lyrical themes, Ribbon Chaser is actually, weirdly, an uplifting record. “It’s easy to turn into this heavy, dark, brooding mass if you’re not careful,� says Ray. “And we’re not a black-metal band.� On the album, the rest of Vespolina counters Aaron’s weighty themes. Coupled with Ray’s driving bass lines, drummer Steve Hendriksen’s upbeat backbone keeps things from stagnating; guitarist AJ Griffin proves yet again he is one of the more under-appreciated (if overworked) musicians in town. Meanwhile, keyboardist Holly Belle’s distinct backing vocals provide melodic levity in moments where it is much needed. The aftertaste left by the album is one of place amidst chaos. And, though Vespolina might not be a band of ribbon chasers in the above-mentioned sense, Ribbon Chaser proves that they are not quite as shiftless as they proclaim to be. Or maybe that’s all a put-on, anyway. “In this town it’s so uncool to enthuse about anything at all,� says Ray. “And that can get in the way of ambition, if you’re not careful.� Though bandmembers might not be the selfpromotional, in-your-face type (“Everybody’s tired of that guy. This town is full of that guy. And none of us like him,� Ray jokes), they’re clearly proud of what they have accomplished. “This happy hour has gotten so ironic,� goes a particularly resonant line in “Unwound,� but it’s a more pleasant irony that Aaron and Vespolina are now experiencing. Through their desire to be free from expectation—get this—they’ve accidentally hit on something really special. Gabe Vodicka

Future Ape Tapes, Divine Circles/Lunar Creature, Motion Sickness of Time Travel, Grant Evans, Rainy Taxi Ciné · 9 p.m. · $5 As Divine Circles, Asheville, NC’s Meghan Mulhearn takes violin music to an otherworldly level, incorporating loops, electronics and droning patterns, among other dreamy diversions. On Mulhearn’s recent cassette split with fellow Ashvillian act Villages, released on local cult label Hooker Vision, she evokes a doomier, gloomier Steve Reich. Mulhearn’s husband David James Lynch performs moody, guitar-based music under the Lunar Creature moniker; the two will team up for a collaborative set at Ciné. Hooker Vision proprietors Grant and Rachel Evans will each perform—his eponymous project centers on dark, dense abstraction, while her exquisite experimentalism is lighter and more synth-based. Free jazz duo Rainy Taxi opens, and post-everything wasteland soundtrackers Future Ape Tapes close out an unmissable night. [Gabe Vodicka] MUSIC | FRIDAY, JULY 12

Little Country Giants, Caroline Spence The World Famous · 8 p.m. ·$7 (adv.), $10 (door) The clearest way to express complicated emotions is to do so simply. This is exactly what Little Country Giants have successfully and consistently accomplished since their debut album, Just For This Songs Time, was released in 2003. The group hails from the sleepy town of Oakman, GA, and its members’ Appalachian background certainly manifests itself in their music. Fronted by guitarist Russell Cook and bassist Cameron Federal, the quartet’s dreamy folk tunes and breathtaking male/female harmonies are reminiscent of another era. “Won’t Be Missing You At All,” off the group’s 2006 album, Sing Pretty For The People, is, like the rest of its music, characteristically Americana—simple yet powerful, and deeply emotional. A true pleasure to the ears. [Katie Kenerly] EVENTS | Sunday, July 14

reality check Matters Of The Heart And Loins [Jyl was thrown by last week’s early July 4 deadline, so Proud Mary stepped in to answer your questions.] I feel so guilty. In February, I made friends with a guy at work, and things got, shall we say, a little more complicated than I meant to happen. At a work-based training weekend, we got together, and I have to say, it was pretty great. Did I mention that he’s married? Well, when we got back to work, I really tried to stay away from him but just couldn’t. I started feeling bad when I realized people were talking about us, and in April I made the break and told him we had to stop. He was okay with it, but I could tell it bothered him a lot. Now I’m dating another guy— sadly, also a work colleague— and last night the first guy showed up at my door and showed me his bare left hand: no wedding ring. Yep, they’ve gotten a divorce, and he’s moved to a new place, and he wants us to “pick up where we left off.� So, Mary, what can I do? I really don’t want to hurt anybody’s feelings, but I’m just not sure that I’m into the first guy anymore. Am I obligated? He’s actually not so bad—I’m so confused. Workaholic Are you obligated, Workaholic? Hon, unless you gave birth to this fool, you’re not obligated to do anything with him ever again. Where does this feeling of obligation stem from? You say you feel guilty for getting involved with a married man—is this guilt making you feel unduly tied to him or the situation in some way? If so, try to forgive yourself for getting caught up in the moment at your work training weekend. From where I’m sitting, it looks like you listened to your conscience and stopped the involvement before you got too entangled. Good for you! You did the right thing: you exercised your agency, and you moved on. Give yourself credit for listening to your gut—she’s usually right. How come you’re ignoring what your gut is plainly telling you now? Now that you’ve moved on, why would you even consider giving this guy another chance? What, exactly, is in it for you? Let’s look at your language here. He’s “actually not so bad�. You’re “just not sure� you’re even into him anymore. And you “really don’t want to hurt anybody’s feelings.� Listen to yourself: you are throwing out some extremely tepid verbiage to describe your feelings for this guy. Maybe if you insisted you had a white-hot connection that had to be explored at any cost, it might be worth dusting off this questionable-atbest relationship and seeing how it works in the light of day. But even if the relationship succeeded, wouldn’t you always be plagued by the knowledge that this man is a cheater? That for him, it was easier to thoughtlessly stray with a co-worker at a training weekend rather than address whatever was lacking in his marriage first? Why would you even consider taking on that kind of headache and heartache for someone you’re “not that sure� you’re into? Workaholic, I think you know you deserve more than this dude. Let this be a blip in your dating life, and a lesson: You are not obligated to anyone but yourself. I want you to stop worrying about hurting other

people’s feelings—especially men who have demonstrated little regard for the feelings of others—and start basing your dating decisions on your own needs and desires. Before you ask if you are obligated to anyone else, first ask yourself how a person or situation makes you feel. Do you feel excited, energized, curious, enthused, safe, your best self? Are your needs being met? If so, proceed and enjoy! But if you feel ambivalent or uncomfortable about a person or dating situation? Shut that shit down and never look back. I am new to town and am not into the music scene and don’t go to church, so I don’t know where to meet someone to date. I am a college graduate and have a good job, but not one which leads to social mixing. Thoughts? Dateless in Athens Dateless: Please read the letter from Workaholic printed above, and thank your lucky stars your job doesn’t lead to “social mixing.� Now, as someone new to town who isn’t into the music scene or churchgoing, it’s true you’re cutting out two sizable potential dating pools. After all, Athens is a music-loving town situated within the Bible Belt. You’re going to have to get creative. But I think that’s actually going to work out in your favor. If you keep your eyes and your heart open, there are all sorts of interesting people living their lives here outside the parameters of church or bars and concerts (and honestly, I give a big fat yawn to meeting people in bars or at concerts; it’s way overrated). It’s hard to know what to tell you, though, when you’ve told me so little about you. What are you looking for? What makes you tick? You say you’re a college graduate with a good job—two rather anodyne descriptors that tell me nothing except roughly your socioeconomic class. Not sexy. I’m sure there’s more to you than that. Have you developed much of a friend network in town yet? It usually bodes better to meet a date through pals than to take home some rando at a bar. As a rule, the more eased into a social life/personal groove you are, the more you’ll naturally attract dating opportunities. It’s just a universal fact that someone fulfilled by their own interests and pursuits will attract others. Conversely, people can smell desperation and boredom, and you don’t want to be wearing that scent. I sincerely hope that you have at least one or two interests outside of your job, Dateless, and I urge you to zero in on those and explore them to the fullest here. Art, food, cinema, literature—Athens has many more cultural offerings aside from “music� and “church.� Just do You, and your dating stock will rise, I promise. My other requirement for you, Dateless, is that you force yourself to practice flirting more. Flirting is like blowing a kiss at the universe without expecting anything back. It’s not about closing the deal, it’s about enjoying the moment. Strike up more conversations with your fellow humans—IRL and yes, online too—and see what happens. As fresh meat in this town, you’re actually operating from a power position: you’re new and full of possibility! Start acting like it. Proud Mary
