SEVEN THINGS TO DO IN SEVEN DAYS
Hot seat
Bike Thiefs FRI. OCT. 11| The Toronto, Canada post-punk outfit Bike Thiefs, who recently released the snarky single “Hockey Dad,” are in New Orleans to lend support to local hard rockers Bad Misters who begin a fall tour by headlining this send-off show. Cicada opens at 9 p.m. at Saturn Bar.
Beth Leavel and Seth Rudetsky perform at NOCCA Oct. 10 BY WILL COVIELLO BETH LEAVEL WON A 2006 BEST FEATURED ACTRESS IN A MUSICAL TONY AWARD FOR HER ROLE AS BEATRICE STOCKWELL, the namesake character in “The Drowsy Chaperone.” An eccentric lush and aging musical theater star from the Jazz Age, Stockwell was a character Leavel helped create. Sometimes Leavel slips into her voice. “Every once in a while, her voice comes out,” Leavel says from her home in New York. “I like her a lot. Sometimes she comes out when I am talking to students or am really embarrassed.” There’s a good chance Stockwell will make an appearance and Leavel will sing her signature tune, “As We Stumble Along,” when she’s joined by pianist Seth Rudetsky at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts (NOCCA). Leavel and Rudetsky teamed up for a show in Provincetown, Massachussetts this summer, in which Leavel sang the “Chaperone” number and her showstopping tune “The Lady’s Improving” from the 2018 Broadway show “The Prom,” in which Leavel also played a self-absorbed Broadway diva. Part of the Broadway at NOCCA series organized by Rudetsky, the show will feature songs from throughout Leavel’s career as well as stories behind her work on Broadway. Leavel made her Broadway debut in “42nd Street” in 1980 and has drawn Tony nominations for roles in “Baby It’s You” and “The Prom.” She’s also starred in “Crazy For You,” “Elf the Musical” and “Mamma Mia!” Leavel almost wasn’t in “The Drowsy Chaperone.” She auditioned, waited months and heard the role went to someone else before she got an invitation to go to Los Angeles and work on the show. “It was quite a process,” she says of waiting to hear about the role. “I think they gave up, and (the director) said ‘Give it to Beth, and let’s see
THU. OCT. 10 | The multi-talented Steve Lacy is known for playing guitar in the contemporary soul and funk band The Internet and producing songs for hip-hop stars. In May, he released a solo album, “Apollo XXI,” a lo-fi project drawing on R&B and indie rock influences. At 8 p.m. at House of Blues.
Bunny Fest 2 FRI. OCT. 11 | Lonely Lonely Knights, Highway Robbery, Guitar Lightnin’ Lee and His Thunder Band and others perform at the benefit for cartoonist and longtime Gambit contributor Bunny Matthews, who has been battling cancer. At 8:30 p.m. at Tipitina’s.
Justin Townes Earle what she can do with it.’ ” The cast and director were using theater games to develop the show’s characters, and the namesake Chaperone hadn’t yet come off the page, Leavel says. In an exercise called “hot seat” actors had to respond in character to impromptu questions. “About the fourth day, we were going to play the game again and (director) Casey (Nicholaw) said, ‘Ladies and gentlemen, dame Beatrice Stockwell,’ which was the first time I had heard ‘dame.’ ” The honorific term for a star of the stage in London clicked with Leavel and others in the game. “I walked out and everyone was yelling ‘Bravo! Bravo!’ ” Leavel says. “So I bowed down really low, all the way to the floor, and then I realized there she is. That was the beginning of finding out who this amazing, whacky, narcissistic woman was.” In the show, Stockwell is the frequently drunk, or “drowsy,” mentor to an actress trying to leave her career in theater to get married, while Stockwell is more concerned with her own glory days. In the show in Provincetown, Rudetsky called for songs from across Leavel’s career, including one from “Grease,” the only production they worked on together almost 30 years

ago. Leavel appeared in the original Broadway production of “42nd Street” as well as the 2001 revival. Rudetsky not only asked her to sing one of Anytime Annie’s songs, but do the accompanying tap dance as well. “He asked me to bring my tap shoes,” she says. “I had to go home that night and go through the steps again. It’s not the easiest tap line that Anytime Annie does.” For most of her career, Leavel’s performances were entirely scripted and rehearsed, but she also does some cabaret singing in New York. In her series with Rudetsky, she says the surprises are part of the fun of the show.
FRI. OCT. 11 | Justin Townes Earle follows in his father Steve Earle’s footsteps as a storytelling songwriter, and his May album “The Saint of Lost Causes” ranges from bouncing country tunes to bluesy honky tonks and slow, lamenting folk ballads. At 9 p.m. at House of Blues.
Doug Stanhope SAT. OCT. 12 | Comedian Doug Stanhope has joked about hard living and not remembering things (his 2017 memoir was titled “This is Not Fame: A ‘From What I Re-memoir’ ”), and he warned ISIS that the terrorist group was honing in on his turf by trying to appeal to angry, disaffected young people. At 8 p.m. at The Howlin’ Wolf.
Japan Fest SAT. OCT. 12 | The celebration of Japanese culture features traditional drumming, dance, martial arts, a tea ceremony, kimono dressing demonstrations, cultural discussions, food vendors and more inside and outside the New Orleans Museum of Art. 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at NOMA.

The First Tee of Greater New Orleans raised $115,000
at its annual golf classic last month. The nonprofit organization, which was founded in 1997, brings golf to young people and teenagers in after-school, weekend and summer programs, emphasizing what it calls the “nine core values”: confidence, responsibility, respect, honesty, judgment, perseverance, sportsmanship, integrity and courtesy.
The number of daily high record temperatures shattered in New Orleans in September, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) New Orleans. P H OTO B Y K E V I N A L L M A N
LOUISIANA ABORTION LAW WILL BE HEARD BY U.S. SUPREME COURT WWL-TV showed great class
when it and parent company TEGNA donated $10,000 to the Nancy Parker Education Fund at Gulf Coast Bank. Parker was the beloved, award-winning WVUETV anchor who died in a small plane accident this past summer. Her husband Glynn Boyd and her family set up the scholarship foundation in her honor. (Disclaimer: WWL-TV is Gambit’s television partner.)
U.S. Sen. John Neely Kennedy, ever in search of cheap
publicity, announced he would soon file legislation to “ban an immediate family member of a member of the Senate, the House, the president’s cabinet, the vice president and/or the president from serving as a consultant, employee, independent contractor or board member” … in Ukraine. If he was serious, he’d expand it to Russia and other countries. (And did we ever get an explanation of why he spent July 4, 2018 visiting Russia?)
THE U.S. SUPREME COURT AGREED LAST WEEK to hear oral arguments surrounding a Louisiana law requiring abortion providers to have admitting privileges to a hospital within a 30-mile radius — a case that could shape the future of legal abortion in the country. The case, June Medical Services v. Gee, will mark the first major abortion case the court will hear since the nomination of Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch by President Donald Trump. Those appointments gave the highest court a conservative majority. The 2014 law has not yet gone into effect due to legal challenges. The Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals — a court that covers Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas and whose rulings tend to skew more conservative — upheld the law in September 2018. It was set to take effect in February until the Supreme Court put it on hold. Abortion rights activists argue that Louisiana’s law is nearly identical to a Texas admitting privileges law that the Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional in 2016 and that the case should have been heard without oral arguments. In its Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt ruling, the court stated that Texas’ restrictions on the procedure must not place an “undue burden” on women seeking it. They also argue that the law would leave only one physician able to provide abortions in Louisiana and close two of the state’s three remaining clinics. “Louisiana is openly defying the Court’s 2016 ruling that states can’t use sham medical regulations to shut down clinics,” said Michelle Erenberg, executive director of Lift Louisiana, an organization that advocates for abortion rights. “We are hopeful that the court will uphold the rule of law, protect our constitutional rights, and be independent of partisan politics. The people of Louisiana shouldn’t be denied their rights because of where they live.” But anti-abortion activists like Dorinda Bordlee, a consulting attorney to the anti-abortion group Louisiana Right to Life, argued that the Texas law differed from Louisiana’s law because it required abortion providers to meet the strict standards required of surgical centers. “Louisiana’s law does not include the ambulatory surgical center requirement, and the facts of Louisiana’s different geography and demographics necessitate a different result,” Bordlee said in a February statement.

The Supreme Court begins its session Oct. 7 and hasn’t announced when it will hear the case, but a ruling could come by next summer. In its ruling, the court could reverse the Fifth Circuit Court’s ruling, uphold it or entirely reverse Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court case that established a woman’s right to legal abortion on the basis of privacy. The court has not yet decided whether it will take up an Indiana case challenging a 2016 law that would require a woman to have an ultrasound — and be given the choice to view the image and listen to the heartbeat — 18 hours before obtaining an abortion. — KAYLEE POCHE

If you were wondering whether President Donald Trump would weigh in on the Louisiana gubernatorial race, wonder no more. Trump took to Twitter last week to rally Louisiana GOP voters, though he didn’t pick a favorite between U.S. Rep. Ralph Abraham or businessman Eddie Rispone, the two leading Republican contenders seeking to oust Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards. “Republicans of Louisiana, it is really important for you to go out and vote on October 12th for either Eddie Rispone or Ralph Abraham (both Great), which will lead to a runoff against a Nancy Pelosi/ Chuck Schumer Democrat (John Bel Edwards), who does nothing but stymie all of the things we are doing to Make America Great Again,” Trump tweeted. “Don’t be fooled, John Bel Edwards will never be for us. Early voting has already started!” His son and adviser, Donald Trump Jr., already had expressed similar sentiments, but, like his father, the younger Trump refused to take sides in the campaign. Rispone and Abraham, both of whom have made their fealty to the president a cornerstone of their campaigns, were quick to use the tweet in their own social media blitzes, while Edwards seized on the opportunity to launch an email fundraiser. “Friends, this is urgent: Donald Trump just attacked me on Twitter,” Edwards’ email said. “With less than two weeks left in the race, this attack could mean the difference between winning and losing. We can’t let it go unanswered, but we need the resources to fight back. My campaign just set an emergency goal to raise $25,000. It’s an ambitious goal, but with
President Trump coming after me, it’s absolutely critical that we hit it.” If the Oct. 12 election results in a runoff between Edwards — who is close to a majority in some polls — and either Rispone or Abraham, many in the GOP would like to see Trump come to Louisiana for a rally in support of the Republican candidate. Vice President Mike Pence planned a rally at the Pontchartrain Center in Kenner last weekend. — KEVIN ALLMAN
Rispone gets a ‘Duck Dynasty’ nod Willie Robertson, CEO of the West Monroe-based company Duck Commander and one of the stars of the faux-reality show “Duck Dynasty,” has weighed in on the Louisiana governor’s race — and his choice is Baton Rouge businessman Eddie Rispone. “I was born here. Raised my family and built our company here,” Robertson says in a 30-second endorsement video. “Louisiana means everything to me. That’s why I’m endorsing Eddie Rispone for governor. “He may not be the slickest or the smoothest, but he’s not a career politician,” Robertson adds. “Willie endorsed @realDonaldTrump in 2016 for being the political outsider,” Rispone said in a tweet, “and I am honored to have his support as the only conservative outsider in this race.” (Rispone didn’t mention that in 2015, before Robertson went for Trump, he was supporting former Gov. Bobby Jindal for president.) Original episodes of “Duck Dynasty” aired from 2012 to 2017, and an endorsement from members of the Robertson family were a coveted part of any conservative Louisiana politician’s campaign during that time. In 2013, Robertson endorsed Vance McAllister — like Rispone, an “outsider” and political newcomer — for Louisiana’s 5th District seat in Congress. After McAllister won and subsequently declared the job “sucks,” Robertson family patriarch Phil Robertson threw his support behind another outsider, Robertson cousin Zach Dasher, who lost. In the 2015 governor’s race, the Robertson clan supported former U.S. Sen. David Vitter over the eventual victor, Gov. John Bel Edwards. An ad with Willie Robertson — with the two men dressed in camouflage — was produced, stressing Vitter’s contrition and redemption after his prostitution scandal. During the 2016 presidential campaign, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz trumpeted the endorsement of
Robertson family patriarch Phil Robertson. The by-then-requisite commercial with the two men sitting in a duck blind in camouflage clothing and face paint followed soon thereafter. “My qualifications for president of the United States are rather narrow,” Robertson said. “Is he or she godly? Does he or she love us? Can he or she do the job? And finally — would they kill a duck and put him in a pot and make him a good duck gumbo?” — KEVIN ALLMAN
‘Burning Cane’ gets November Netflix release, will screen at New Orleans Film Festival Phillip Youmans, the 19-year-old NOCCA graduate whose first film, “Burning Cane,” won top honors at the Tribeca Film Festival, will see his award-winning movie debut on Netflix starting Nov. 6. The movie, set in rural Louisiana and starring Louisiana natives Wendell Pierce and Karen Kaia Livers, was written, directed and shot by Youmans when he still was a high schooler. At Tribeca earlier this year, it won the prizes for Best Narrative Feature, Best Actor (for Pierce) and Best Cinematography. “Burning Cane” also will have a brief run in theaters in Los Angeles and New York, and it’s one of the featured pictures at the New Orleans Film Festival, where it will be shown Oct. 19. — KEVIN ALLMAN
The Who at Jazz Fest 2020? Looks that way Discussion of the 2020 New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival lineup is off to an early start after band member Pete Townshend said he believes The Who is scheduled to perform at the event. After The Who canceled concerts in Dallas and Denver due to band member Roger Daltrey’s bronchitis, Townshend posted a message to Instagram Sept. 29 in which he apologized for the cancellation and mentioned parenthetically that the band’s tour would include the 2020 Jazz Fest. A similar social media slip happened earlier this year, when Mick Jagger posted an Instagram video spilling the beans that the Rolling Stones were coming to Jazz Fest — a poorly kept secret that nonetheless stole the announcement thunder from Jazz Fest organizers. The Who performed at Jazz Fest in 2015. — WILL COVIELLO

Into the stretch, some races to watch
THIS HASN’T BEEN THE MOST THRILLING ELECTION CYCLE —
statewide, it’s been tame by Louisiana standards — but that doesn’t mean we won’t have some dramatic moments on Election Night. As we enter the final week, here’s my list of the races to watch as the returns come in. Governor — Will President Donald Trump’s tweeted broadside against incumbent John Bel Edwards make a difference, or was he just talking to the base? We’ll find out Saturday night. As the incumbent and only Democrat of any consequence, Edwards has only one task: get to 50% plus one and win it all without a runoff. His two GOP opponents have two tall orders: keep Edwards below 50% and run second. For most of the campaign, Ralph Abraham appeared to have a lock on the runner-up spot, but Eddie Rispone made it interesting by attacking Abraham in the final weeks. The keys for Edwards will be getting black voter turnout to comprise at least 29% of the total votes cast and getting at least a third of the white vote. If he does both, he’ll win. If not, he’ll likely head to a runoff against either Abraham or Rispone — and Trump. Insurance commissioner — This is the only other statewide contest that looks as though it will be close. Incumbent Jim Donelon seeks a fourth full term, while challenger Tim Temple has spent a ton of money attacking Donelon and presenting himself as “the insurance guy.” Supreme Court — Four men (all Republicans) hope to succeed former Associate Justice Greg Guidry, a federal district judge. Three of the candidates are sitting judges — Will Crain, Hans Liljeberg and Scott
P H OTO B Y I Q O N CE P T/G E T T Y I M AG E S
Schlegel. The district includes all of East Jefferson and parts of the West Bank, New Orleans’ lakefront and Lakeview and all of St. Tammany, Washington, Tangipahoa and St. Helena parishes. The Northshore holds more than 60% of the electorate. This contest features a shadow war between business interests and trial lawyers, and a runoff appears certain. Jefferson Parish president — The media (myself included) have billed this as a two-person race, but there’s a third candidate — Lee Bonnecarrere, a no-party independent. That could make a huge difference if Cynthia Lee Sheng and John Young run neck-and-neck and Bonnecarrere gets more than a smattering of votes. This race got ugly in the final weeks; a runoff only would get uglier. Jefferson Council at-Large “B” — District 2 Councilman Paul Johnston faces political newcomer Scott Walker in a generational battle. Johnston has more political support and a larger campaign kitty, but Walker has more visibility as a former TV news anchor. Polls have shown a close race. Jefferson Council Districts 2 & 3 — The incumbents in both these council districts are term-limited, and that has produced a pair of wide-open contests. In District 2, three candidates are vying to succeed Paul Johnston. In District 3 — the council’s only black-majority district — 11 candidates want the job, including two who held the seat previously and a former state lawmaker who went to federal prison for money laundering. Even when things are relatively dull, Louisiana keeps its political brand out there.

BLAKE PONTCHARTRAIN™ @GambitBlake | askblake@gambitweekly.com
Hey Blake,
P H OTO B Y K A N DACE P O W ER G R AV E S
I’m curious about the statue of a soldier in the neutral ground at Poydras and Loyola. The plaque on it explains it honors veterans of the Spanish-American War. Why is it at that location and is it modeled after someone in particular?
‘The Hiker’ honors Louisiana soldiers of the Spanish-American war, the Philippine Insurrection and the China Relief Expedition.
Dear reader,
The monument called “The Hiker” has been located at that spot near Poydras and Loyola since the mid-1960s, but first was unveiled in 1939 at the intersection of Canal Street and Claiborne Avenue. It was relocated to Loyola Avenue during construction of the elevated Claiborne Avenue expressway. The base of the monument explains that it honors Louisiana soldiers and sailors who served not just in the 1898 Spanish-American War but also in the related Philippine Insurrection (1899-1902) and the
China Relief Expedition (1900). The bronze statue is one of more than 50 across the country modeled on an original statue by sculptor Theo Alice Ruggles Kitson. She created the first one for the University of Minnesota in 1906. According to the Smithsonian Institution, Kitson’s model for the sculpture was Spanish-American War veteran Leonard Sefing Jr. Kitson called the sculpture “The Hiker” in reference to the term Spanish-
American War veterans used to identify themselves. The local monument was erected at a cost of $5,000, which was appropriated by Gov. Richard Leche and the state Legislature. According to an article in The New Orleans States, a copper box containing war medals and copies of records detailing the Louisiana regiments in the Spanish-American War was sealed into the monument’s pedestal. The box also contained Spanish currency salvaged from the wreckage of the U.S.S. Maine. The 1898 sinking of the U.S. Navy battleship in Havana, Cuba propelled America into the war against Spain. The monument was dedicated on Memorial Day, May 30, 1939, with a ceremony featuring remarks by Col. William Dufour, a Spanish-American War veteran.
BLAKEVIEW WITH THE 2019 GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION LATER THIS WEEK , we look at some of the
people who have served as governor of Louisiana during its 207-year history. William Charles Cole Claiborne, a native of Virginia and former Tennessee Congressman, was appointed governor by President Thomas Jefferson at the time of the 1803 Louisiana Purchase to oversee the Territory of Orleans. He remained governor in 1812 when Louisiana became a state and was the first elected governor, serving until 1816. Claiborne’s successor, Jacques Phillippe Villere, was the first native-born governor of Louisiana. Pinckney Benton Stewart Pinchback, a freed slave, served as governor for 35 days in 1872 and 1873 and was the state’s only black governor. At age 35, Huey Pierce Long was the youngest man sworn in as governor (19281932). He and his brother Earl, who served for one year in 1939 and was elected to four-year terms in 1948 and 1956, are the only brothers to serve as governor. Kathleen Babineaux Blanco (2004-2008) was the state’s first woman governor. Edwin Edwards served four terms and held the office of governor longer than anyone in state history.

COMMENTARY
Our Endorsements ELECTION DAY IS SATURDAY, OCT. 12 ,
and this is an extremely important election for Louisiana. Voters will choose a governor, six other statewide officials, members of the Louisiana Legislature, local officials at the parish level and a new state Supreme Court justice. Voters also will decide the fate of four proposed constitutional amendments. Their decisions will guide Louisiana for the next four years and beyond. As we have done in the past, we offer our recommendations, with the strongest being that you, our readers, vote — even if you disagree with our endorsements. A big voter turnout is a victory for democracy. Herewith our endorsements.
GOVERNOR: John Bel Edwards
John Bel Edwards has earned a second term as Louisiana’s governor. After inheriting a $2 billion deficit from former Gov. Bobby Jindal, he worked with Republicans as well as Democrats in the state Legislature to produce a $500 million surplus in less than four years. That surplus now can be used to reduce state debt and start repairing some of Louisiana’s crumbling infrastructure. Another benefit of Edwards’ stewardship: Moody’s Investors Service recently upgraded our state’s bond rating. Edwards expanded Medicaid, which made health care available to nearly half a million Louisiana citizens who could not previously afford it. That decision, because of federal funding for Medicaid, has helped balance the state budget — and saved lives. He also built bipartisan support for increased investment in early childhood education, a much-needed pay raise for teachers and a focus on criminal justice reform that has, for the first time in recent history, made Louisiana safer and removed us from the top of the list of the world’s most carceral places. Under Edwards’ leadership, Louisiana has begun climbing out of the ditch. His opponents lob partisan attacks against him, but the truth is Edwards has put the people of Louisiana ahead of petty politics. He has governed with reason and fairness. We urge our readers to re-elect John Bel Edwards so Louisiana can continue on the right track for another four years.
LT. GOVERNOR: Billy Nungesser
Billy Nungesser promised to serve without regard to party politics, and he has kept that promise. He has worked well with Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards and the Republican-led Legislature. Equally important, he has led the state Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism
(which the lieutenant governor oversees) with energy, focus and purpose. In the face of budget constraints, Nungesser worked with tourism leaders throughout Louisiana to help bring record numbers of tourists to all parts of the state. His office also manages most state museums and all state parks, which likewise have seen a spike in attendance despite budget cuts. Politicians love to talk about doing more with less, but Billy Nungesser has actually done it. He deserves another term as Louisiana’s lieutenant governor.
SECRETARY OF STATE: Kyle Ardoin
Incumbent Kyle Ardoin served as the chief deputy of this office before becoming interim Secretary of State. He won the office outright in a special election last year and has served well since then. This office is an important starting point for new businesses and a key resource for attorneys and businesses needing to access important records and data. The Secretary of State also serves as Louisiana’s chief elections officer, charged with maintaining voter registration rolls and safeguarding the integrity of our elections system. The Secretary of State’s office has functioned at a high level for decades and continues to do so. Kyle Ardoin has earned a full term.
ATTORNEY GENERAL: No Endorsement TREASURER: John Schroder
The state treasurer chairs the Louisiana Bond Commission, which approves state borrowing through the sale of bonds and serves as the state’s chief fiscal officer. He also oversees constitutional and statutory funds placed under his control, manages the state’s cash (including reserves), and runs the state’s popular unclaimed property program. These and other functions of the office are critical services that typically are provided out of the daily spotlight, yet they have tremendous impact on Louisiana’s fiscal integrity. Incumbent John Schroder has served only two years, but he has served well. We believe he has earned a full term in the office.
INSURANCE COMMISSIONER: Jim Donelon
Other than the governor’s race, the contest for commissioner of insurance appears to be the most hotly contested statewide race on the Oct. 12 ballot. Incumbent Jim Donelon took over the office after the third insurance commissioner in a row was sentenced to federal prison. Since
that time, he has turned the office around. He spurred competition among insurance providers, which in turn has lowered rates in key areas. This was particularly true in the years after Hurricane Katrina, when so many insurance companies left Louisiana. Today, more than 30 companies write property and casualty policies in our state — a dramatic improvement over the immediate aftermath of Katrina. Donelon has been an advocate for consumers across the board and even held bail bondsmen accountable for overcharging their clients. His opponent offers promises and campaign rhetoric, but Jim Donelon has a proven record that merits him another term as insurance commissioner.
AGRICULTURE COMMISSIONER: Mike Strain
Incumbent Mike Strain is another statewide official who took over an office engulfed in scandal. Since he took office in 2008, he has brought integrity and stability to the state’s Department of Agriculture and Forestry. In his current term, Strain was tasked with overseeing Louisiana’s fledgling medical cannabis program. This was new territory for Strain as well as for LSU and Southern University, which were authorized by state lawmakers to grow medical strains of cannabis. Although the program saw several delays that frustrated those anxious to get legally recommended CBD, it is now available statewide and receiving rave reviews. Equally important, the program was launched without scandal. We recommend Mike Strain for re-election as agriculture commissioner.
JEFFERSON PARISH RACES JEFFERSON PARISH RESIDENT: Cynthia Lee Sheng
The hotly contested race for parish president boils down to a choice between at-large Councilwoman Cynthia Lee Sheng, who works closely with her colleagues to solve problems and move Jefferson forward, and former parish President John Young, who often clashed with council members during his tenure as president. While both are honest public officials, we think Lee Sheng’s approach will serve Jefferson better in the next four years. Jefferson Parish needs a leader who will unite the parish, not get bogged down in political squabbles and finger pointing. As a council

COMMENTARY
JEFFERSON COUNCIL AT-LARGE B: Scott Walker This race features two leading candidates with good reputations but significantly different backgrounds. Paul Johnston has held public offices in Harahan and on the parish council for a quarter century, and he has served honorably. But as Jefferson Parish ages and struggles to attract young families, we think it needs a new generation of leaders to address that and other challenges. Scott Walker, a Jefferson Parish native, former news anchor and now a local business owner, offers a fresh approach to problem solving. His endorsements from the Jefferson Parish Chamber and the New Orleans Metro Realtors attest to his viability as a candidate and his readiness to bring new energy to the council.
JEFFERSON COUNCIL DIST. 1: Marion Edwards This Gretna-based district on the West Bank is among the parish’s most diverse, and it needs a council member who understands the importance of working with people from diverse backgrounds to solve common problems. Former Judge Marion Edwards will bring a strong record of public service, integrity and sound judgement to the task of serving on the council from District 1. What strikes us most about Edwards is that he was drafted out of retirement to run for this council seat. He doesn’t seek to pad his resume; he already ranks among the most respected public servants in Jefferson. He will be a leader, a unifier and a voice of reason on the council.
JEFFERSON COUNCIL DIST. 2: Michael O’Brien This district straddles the Mississippi River and includes neighborhoods that have been adversely affected by odors and other problems associated with the parish landfill and chemical plants on the West Bank. Businessman Michael O’Brien’s campaign emphasizes air quality and overall quality of life throughout Jefferson. His priorities will be improved drainage, reducing air and noise pollution, and monitoring the parish landfill and chemical plants. He favors promoting the use of pervious paving materials instead of concrete and developing policies for better management of stormwater. He is endorsed by the Alliance for Good Government and the Jefferson Parish Republican Executive Committee.

member, Lee Sheng led the drive to clean up Fat City, which had become overrun with strip clubs and bars. Today that area boasts more family friendly restaurants and businesses than ever. She will bring that same determination and focus to the parish president’s office.
JEFFERSON COUNCIL DIST. 3: Jedidiah Jackson
This is Jefferson Parish’s only black-majority council district. The open seat attracted a large field of 11 candidates, several of whom are well known and controversial. In our view, one candidate stands out for having both the experience and the integrity to serve this district as it deserves — former parish administrator Jedidiah Jackson. From 2011 through April of this year, Jackson directed the Jefferson Community Action Program, or JeffCAP, and helped garner millions in federal grants for programs ranging from Head Start and other early childhood education programs to services for the elderly. His career has been about constituent services, which we believe prepares him well to serve on the council.

JEFFERSON COUNCIL DIST. 5: Jennifer Van Vrancken
Incumbent Jennifer Van Vrancken seeks re-election to the Metairie-based District 5 seat she won four years ago. Before her time on the council, Van Vrancken served as chief operating officer for the entire parish, overseeing 40 departments. As a council member, she has been a leader in the causes of transparency and accountability, and she has served with integrity and fairness. She brings innovative ideas to the parish’s efforts to attract new residents as it loses population, including recreation areas, bike paths, revitalization of major corridors and parish-specific celebrations.
10/29/2019
BOARD OF ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY EDUCATION (BESE) DISTRICT 1: James Garvey
As a leading education reformer and three-term member of BESE, Jim Garvey has worked to improve public education across Louisiana. He has pushed for higher standards and expanding opportunities for public school families, particularly children with special needs. His work on BESE speaks for itself in the form of significant increases in graduation rates, improved ACT scores, higher-rated schools in his district (particularly in New Orleans), increased college enrollment among recent graduates, and higher TOPS-eligibility rates among high school graduates. In addition to these, we have endorsed in more than a dozen other area legislative and parish elections. We do not endorse in judicial races, and therefore we make no endorsement in the race for Louisiana Supreme Court. For more details about our endorsements in these and other races, as well as the four proposed constitutional amendments on the Oct. 12 ballot, please go to www.bestofneworleans.com.

Important Facts About DOVATO
This is only a brief summary of important information about DOVATO and does not replace talking to your healthcare provider about your condition and treatment. What is the Most Important Information I Should Know about DOVATO? If you have both human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, DOVATO can cause serious side effects, including: • Resistant HBV infection. Your healthcare provider will test you for HBV infection before you start treatment with DOVATO. If you have HIV-1 and hepatitis B, the hepatitis B virus can change (mutate) during your treatment with DOVATO and become harder to treat (resistant). It is not known if DOVATO is safe and effective in people who have HIV-1 and HBV infection. • Worsening of HBV infection. If you have HIV-1 and HBV infection, your HBV may get worse (flare-up) if you stop taking DOVATO. A“flare-up”is when your HBV infection suddenly returns in a worse way than before. Worsening liver disease can be serious and may lead to death. ° Do not run out of DOVATO. Refill your prescription or talk to your healthcare provider before your DOVATO is all gone. ° Do not stop DOVATO without first talking to your healthcare provider. If you stop taking DOVATO, your healthcare provider will need to check your health often and do blood tests regularly for several months to check your liver. What is DOVATO? DOVATO is a prescription medicine that is used without other antiretroviral medicines to treat HIV-1 infection in adults: who have not received antiretroviral medicines in the past,and without known resistance to the medicines dolutegravir or lamivudine. HIV-1 is the virus that causes Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). It is not known if DOVATO is safe and effective in children. Who should not take DOVATO? Do Not Take DOVATO if You: • have ever had an allergic reaction to a medicine that contains dolutegravir or lamivudine. • take dofetilide. What should I tell my healthcare provider before using DOVATO? Tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you: • have or have had liver problems, including hepatitis B or C infection. • have kidney problems. • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. One of the medicines in DOVATO (dolutegravir) may harm your unborn baby. ° You should not take DOVATO if you are planning to become pregnant or during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy. Your healthcare provider may prescribe a different medicine if you are planning to become pregnant or become pregnant during treatment with DOVATO. ° If you can become pregnant, your healthcare provider will perform a pregnancy test before you start treatment with DOVATO. ° If you can become pregnant, you should consistently use effective birth control (contraception) during treatment with DOVATO. ° Tell your healthcare provider right away if you are planning to become pregnant, you become pregnant, or think you may be pregnant during treatment with DOVATO. • are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. Do not breastfeed if you take DOVATO. ° You should not breastfeed if you have HIV-1because of the risk of passing HIV-1to your baby. ° One of the medicines in DOVATO (lamivudine) passes into your breastmilk. ° Talk with your healthcare provider about the best way to feed your baby. ©2019 ViiV Healthcare or licensor.

SO MUCH GOES INTO WHO I AM HIV MEDICINE IS ONE PART OF IT. Reasons to ask your doctor about DOVATO: DOVATO can help you reach and then stay undetectable* with just 2 medicines in 1 pill. That means fewer medicines† in your body while taking DOVATO
You can take it any time of day with or without food (around the same time each day)—giving you flexibility
DOVATO is a once-a-day complete treatment for adults who are new to HIV-1 medicine. Results may vary. *Undetectable means reducing the HIV in your blood to very low levels (less than 50 copies per mL). † As compared with 3-drug regimens.
LEO‡ Living with HIV
What are Possible Side Effects of DOVATO (cont’d)? • Changes in your immune system (Immune Reconstitution Syndrome) can happen when you start taking HIV-1 medicines. Your immune system may get stronger and begin to fight infections that have been hidden in your body for a long time. Tell your healthcare provider right away if you start having new symptoms after you start taking DOVATO. • The most common side effects of DOVATO include: headache; diarrhea; nausea; trouble sleeping; and tiredness. These are not all the possible side effects of DOVATO. Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088. Where Can I Find More Information? • Talk to your healthcare provider or pharmacist. • Go to DOVATO.com or call 1- 877- 844-8872, where you can also get FDA-approved labeling.

ABITA HOP 99 Cut the carbs. Keep the craft. Hop 99 is one of the first of this emerging low-calorie, lowcarbohydrate IPA style. Mosaic and Citra hops are loaded into Hop 99 to give it a big hop flavor, while pale malts give it a light body and crisp finish. Hop 99 is a sessionable IPA at 4.2% ABV making it an ideal choice for after a run, taking a break from yard work or a long day of tailgating. Style – Light IPA ABV – 4.2%
GUINNESS DRAUGHT STOUT Rich and creamy. Distinctively black. Velvety in its finish. This iconic beer is defined by harmony. Sip after sip, sweet counters bitter as the malt arrives on cue to compliment a base of roasted barley. Just as the unmistakable white head sits flush atop the dark beer, so do the flavors counter and combine perfectly. This is our greatest innovation. Truly unique. Perfectly balanced. Style – Stout ABV – 4.2%

DEUTSCHES HAUS (1700 Moss
BY RE B ECC A F R I E D M A N BORDEAUX HAS GIVEN UPTOWN NEW ORLEANS AN OUTDOOR DINING SPACE
that feels pleasant on a 90-degree evening. But the restaurant has done more by bringing elevated cuisine with tastes of France, south Louisiana and the tropics to a corner of Magazine Street. Chef Dominique Macquet has overseen several local dining spots over the years, including his long-running namesake restaurant at the Maison Dupuy hotel, Dominique’s on Magazine Street and Saveur. Bordeaux’s informal atmosphere is a departure from those. New Orleans Saints banners hang from patio railings, and fans circulate powerful breezes. That casual backdrop could feel like a mismatch for the sophisticated cuisine, but Bordeaux bridges the divide. Its focal point is a custom-built outdoor French rotisserie that is used to slow-roast pheasant, duck, guinea fowl, lamb shoulder and chicken. Guinea fowl was succulent, with perfectly crisped skin. A heavy sauce covered much of the bird, however, which compromised some of the crispness. The $32 portion was sizeable: Half a fowl was served with a large square of gratin dauphinois, rich with layers of warm cheese and fresh herbs. Lightly dressed mixed greens filled out the plate. The lamb shoulder, $28 at dinner, is available in a more economical form at lunch, where it fills a laudable French dip sandwich ($11) with caramelized onions, Swiss cheese and rich dipping jus. Lunch also provides a chance to sample the rotisserie chick-

en over a crunchy, garlicky Caesar salad ($12). The full lunch menu has salads, a daily quiche and sandwiches including a bacon cheeseburger ($14). Among dinner appetizers, a heap of jumbo lump crabmeat over a slice of fried kohlrabi with remoulade ($19) was an outstanding riff on a fried green tomato standard. A ceviche of red snapper and octopus, with corn, shaved onion, cilantro and leche de tigre, was too tart. In addition to the rotisserie items, which are served with gratin dauphinois and mixed greens, entrees include a grilled steak with chimichurri and pommes frites ($28) and a grilled whole pompano with pappardelle, spinach and baby bok choy ($32). A sauteed soft-shell crab ($36) was a delicious splurge, served with saffron basmati rice pilaf and crisp green papaya slaw. Desserts range from tasty yet pedestrian items like a ramekin of molten chocolate cake topped with a raspberry to the more creative pineapple-mango crumble and a red berry

Notable cocktails include the Sacre Bleu, a concoction of vodka, lemon, elderflower liqueur and egg white, and the Pipeline, Bordeaux’s passionfruit-accented play on an Aperol spritz. Several wines are available by the glass, ranging in price from $8 to $12. The lengthy bottle list includes many wines from the Bordeaux region. Bordeaux has found a winning formula that combines comfortable surroundings and excellent contemporary French Creole fare. Now that it’s been shown to stand the heat, diners can hope for an equally appealing setting on chilly winter evenings, warmed by the rotisserie’s glow.

St., 504-522-8014) is celebrating Oktoberfest (www.oktoberfestnola.com) with German food, spirits, oompah music, contests and more at its home in Mid-City on Fridays and Saturdays through Oct. 19. The German cultural organization officially opened its new building in November 2018, weeks after the close of Oktoberfest on its 90th anniversary. But the clubhouse is open this year and is home to the group’s premium Oktoberfest offerings. Oktoberfest is the traditional German harvest festival, and at Deutsches Haus there’s a stage for oompah music and entertainment, a dining area and bars outdoors. An extensive German menu includes beef goulash, schnitzel, bratwurst, weisswurst, kielbasa, German potato salad, Bavarian-style soft pretzels, German chocolate cake, apple strudel and more. Urban South Brewery is reprising its Festbier for the event. New beer offerings include an Oktoberfest collaboration between Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. and German brewer Bitburger, as well as a Celebrator Doppelbock and a Brauweisse from Ayinger Brewery. There also are many imported German beers. The premium pass features access to air conditioning, unlimited beer, wine, schnapps, cocktails and a buffet with bratwurst and sweet potato soup, krautwickel (cabbage rolls) and spaetzle. Oktoberfest events include daily beer stein-holding contests, Dachshund races, a canine costume contest and kids’ activities. Deutsches Haus’ bar is open daily year-round, and German-inspired food is available. “The menu varies depending on who’s in the kitchen,” Deutsches Haus President Brian Huber says, but mainstays include flammkuchen, a German-style pizza, wurst plates and sauerkraut. Regular bar hours are 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 3 p.m. to midnight Friday, 11 a.m. to midnight Saturday and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. Oktoberfest hours are 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. Fridays and 1 p.m. to 11 p.m. Saturdays. Information on tickets are available on the festival website. — REBECCA FRIEDMAN

PREVIEW Thom Yorke BY RAPHAEL HELFAND
AT 51 YEARS OLD, Thom Yorke doesn’t have to keep innovating to draw audiences, but he has never been afraid to try new things. In his more than 30 years with Radiohead, Yorke has shepherded the band through countless sounds, from sad rock to art rock, from intelligent dance music to abstract electronica. As a solo artist, he’s been equally adventurous, constantly experimenting with novel vehicles for his eerie voice. Yorke released his solo debut, “The Eraser,” in 2006, and has issued a sporadic stream of independent work since. In 2018, he scored Luca Gaudagnino’s remake of Dario Argento’s “Suspiria.” His soundtrack was worlds away from Claudio Simonetti’s original score, putting an entirely different spin on the classic horror film. This year, Yorke released “ANIMA,” a heavily electronic album accompanied by a Paul Thomas Anderson-directed short film. In New Orleans, Yorke is joined by multi-instrumentalist Nigel Godrich, his partner in Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes, and visual artist Tarik Barri. Andrea Belfi opens at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 9.

GOING OUT REVIEW ‘Enigmatic Stream: Industrial Landscapes of the Lower Mississippi River’ BY D. ERIC BOOKHARDT IN HIS “ENIGMATIC STREAM: INDUSTRIAL P H OTO C O U R T E S Y R I C H A R D S E X TO N LANDSCAPES OF THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI Valero St. Charles Refinery from the RIVER” exhibit of nearly 100 black-and-white West Bank Levee; Hahnville, LA; 2015 photographs, Richard Sexton has tackled perhaps his most challenging project to date. The vast petrochemical corridor that extends from Baton Rouge past New Orleans is one of America’s most vital complexes of heavy industry, as well as a major economic engine for Louisiana. Lauded as a technological marvel and derided as a pollution-spewing “cancer alley,” its controversies complicate the documentary photographer’s task of clear and unbiased depiction. Sexton lets these industries speak for themselves as often otherworldly structures that arise improbably among cow pastures, ranch-style residences and remnants of plantations. Is it possible for fantastical technological installations to visually inspire intense emotions? The view of the Norco refinery, as seen from across the Mississippi River at Hahnville (pictured), is awesome in every sense of the word, but what sort of awe does it inspire? Recalling vintage science-fiction illustrations, it harks to a disorienting realm beyond ordinary human experience as we struggle to fathom its implications. Comprising the cover of the book that accompanies the exhibit, it visually epitomizes the “enigma” that we live with. The river banks are studded with utilitarian facilities including grain silos and the relics of antiquated industries in an expansive visual culture anarchy. The steel trusses of the Huey P. Long Bridge are starkly utilitarian, but the arches supporting them reveal intricate Gothic hints of old Europe. This interaction of natural and industrial forces with pervasive human whimsy is a recurring theme, as in an image of oceangoing tankers anchored in the river adjacent to the flooded Bonnet Carre Spillway, where a fisherman wades along the shore as so many have done before him. The scale and contrasts defy interpretation. As Sexton writes, “We are intellectually aware of heavy industry’s importance, are in awe of its power and, at the same time, fear and loathe its existence. Such is the nature of enigmas.” Through April 5, 2020. The Historic New Orleans Collection, 520 Royal St., (504) 523-4662; www.hnoc.org.
