Readers react to blog posts and stories from the last issue. On Jan. 4, we published a report pointing out that Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis will be the youngest Florida governor in more than a century when he takes office this week. DeSantis, a former congressman from Ponte Vedra Beach, turned 40 about two weeks after he won the Aug. 28 GOP primary. He will be the youngest governor on Inauguration Day since Park Trammell took the oath of office on Jan. 7, 1913, as a 36-year-old former attorney general, as well as the state’s first “Generation X” governor, following three “baby boomers,” Rick Scott, Charlie Crist and Jeb Bush. @Rashaad Genie A generational shift back to 1950.

made a great decision by not electing that anticop socialist. On Jan. 4, Orlando Weekly potty-humor correspondent Colin Wolf reported that Orlando Health facilities loudly cleared their pipes over the weekend, as the hospital conducted their annual system venting. Orlando Health described the procedure as “shooting a hot, wet wind 40 to 50 feet out from the pipes, as well as sand-sized particulate matter, at a velocity of 1,250 feet per minute.” The pipe cleaning procedure is critical to hospital operations, the hospital says. @Bob Brandenburg It better be careful at its age. It could turn out to be more than a fart. @Nick Agon Kresky Will there be a countdown? Dear god there needs to be a countdown.

@Richard Neilan I predict nothing good will come to children, minorities or Florida’s poorest citizens during his governorship. Just a hunch.

Reward increased for information on who killed an Orlando high school student, report shows most of Florida’s sex offenders live in Orange County and other news you may have missed last week. »

Reward increased to $15K for info on fatal shooting of Orlando high school student: Alejandro Vargas Martinez, a 15-year-old Boone High

School student, was gunned down around 6:41 a.m. on Dec. 18 while he was walking to school along Waldo Street near East Kaley Avenue. Orange County Sheriff’s Office deputies found Alejandro lying on the street and treated him at the scene, but he later died at the hospital. A day after Alejandro’s death, Crimeline offered $10,000 for information leading to an arrest in the case. The Sheriff’s Office has also released surveillance video showing a “vehicle of interest” in the teenager’s killing. People with information are asked to call Crimeline at 1-800-423-8477.

John Morgan says he’ll raise entry-level pay for his employees to $15 an hour: Orlando attorney John Morgan announced last month that he will

increase the starting pay at his law firm, Morgan & Morgan, to $15 an hour in 2019. In a companywide memo, he wrote, “This will be an additional cost of millions of dollars to the firm. We think it is worth it. More importantly we think you’re worth it.” Morgan was criticized by Orlando Weekly last year for pledging $1 million to raising Florida’s minimum wage to $15 per hour but not paying his own employees at that rate. Job postings on the sites Indeed and Glassdoor showed entry-level positions starting at $11 and $12 an hour, months after announcing his “Living Wage” campaign.

The number of sex offenders living in Florida is on the rise, and most live in Orange County: The number of registered sex offenders and

predators living in Florida is on the rise, with 28,548 sex offenders and predators calling the Sunshine State home as of October 2018, according to a new state report. That’s a 53 percent increase since 2005, when the state started reviewing its registry. The December report released by the Office of Program Policy Analysis and Government Accountability says Orange County has the highest number of resident registered sex offenders and predators in the state at 2,299, followed closely by Duval (2,108) and Hillsborough (1,823). In 2017, the Orlando Sentinel reported the greater Orlando area ranked third in the U.S. for the number of reports to the national human trafficking hotline.

Pulse first responder Omar Delgado is finally granted disability benefits: Former Eatonville Police Cpl. Omar Delgado, who has struggled with severe post-traumatic stress disorder since the 2016 Pulse shooting, was granted benefits Thursday after a vote in favor of the motion from the Eatonville Police Pension Board. Last year, the pension board denied Delgado his benefits because “medical records ‘failed to establish by the greater weight of the evidence’ that Delgado was permanently disabled.” Delgado was one of the first officers to respond to the mass shooting at the gay nightclub on June 12, 2016. He was hailed as a hero for entering Pulse as a gunman killed 49 people and saving the life of survivor Angel Colón. Months after Pulse, Delgado said he had constant nightmares about what happened inside the club and was triggered by certain sights and sounds. After being put on light desk duty, the former corporal said his superior officer told him he was being let go in December 2017 because of Delgado’s “emotional disturbed state and PTSD.”

New bill would ban smoking on Florida beaches: Sarasota House Republican Joe Gruters wants to outlaw smoking on all public beaches through a newly introduced bill, SB 218, which would fine first-time violators $25 or 10 hours of community service. In 2017, a law that was in place for five years that banned smoking in Sarasota County public parks and beaches was tossed by a judge who declared it unconstitutional on the grounds that local jurisdictions couldn’t ban something that was legal on a state level. Civil rights leaders, predominantly the ACLU of Florida, argued that the law selectively targeted homeless people. orlandoweekly.com

ILLUSTRATION BY CLAY JONES

THE POLITICS OF DANCING The freshman rep deftly deflected ridicule over a dance video to spotlight a progressive climate change agenda. No matter where her political career goes from here, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has sealed her legacy BY J EFFREY C. BI L L M A N

So often in the Trump era, the domi-

nant news event is so mind-numbingly stupid that it barely warrants comment. Case in point: the government shutdown over the border wall, now entering its third idiotic week and apparently destined to continue until the president’s temper tantrum runs its course and his handlers put him down for a nap. So we’re going to set that aside for now. (Programming note: If Democrats agree to pay for one brick or steel slat, expect my next column to be an 800-word string of profanities.) There were some amusing side plots to week one of the 116th Congress: Sen. Mitt Romney asserting himself as the GOP’s moral compass and being reprimanded by his niece, the party’s chairwoman; North Carolina preacher Mark Harris trying to sue his way to Congress after hiring a political operative who might have committed massive absentee ballot fraud in a now-disputed election; and freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, whose declaration that she was going to “impeach the motherfucker” was met with a wave of performative pearl-clutching – from media scolds to Republican opportunists, from weak-kneed Dems to the motherfucker himself. But the most interesting story has been the spectacle

surrounding Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 29-yearold Democratic Socialist from New York City who, as everyone learned this week, did a Breakfast Club dance homage while she was in college. Her unexpected primary victory in June made her an overnight sensation on the left and a creepy obsession of right-wing bro-trolls. The media elevated her as a charismatic and unscripted avatar for her generation, a potentially disruptive force. Republicans sought to paint her as a flighty, know-nothing commie, emblematic of a party headed hard left. Democrats, meanwhile, haven’t quite been sure what to do with her. For all the attention paid Ocasio-Cortez, however, she’s just a backbencher, as her first days in office illustrated. Her efforts to rally Democrats – even progressives – against a pay-as-you-go provision that critics feared would impede initiatives like Medicare for All (it’s complicated, but not really) failed badly. And while Pelosi created a climate change committee, it’s weaker than a similar committee Pelosi established in 2007 and probably won’t generate the sweeping proposals progressives want. While AOC (she’s famous enough for just initials, right?) has proven herself adept at working the lime-

light, the labyrinthine machinery of Congress, with its ingrained power structures and arcane rules, will take much longer to master. There, she’ll be but one of 435, and most of the others will have seniority and the egos that come with it. Yet AOC has already accomplished what most of them haven’t, and never will. By thrusting the so-called Green New Deal into the mainstream and pushing for a war-like mobilization toward all-renewable energy – even if that means raising top marginal tax rates to 70 percent, which, while significantly higher than what we have now, is pretty moderate compared to that hippie Dwight Eisenhower’s 91 percent top rates – she and her fellow young progressives are reshaping America’s climate debate in ways that could reverberate for decades, something made all the more urgent by an October U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report that says the world has only a dozen years to limit global warming’s catastrophic effects. In other words, it’s now or never. The Republican Party, with head firmly inserted into ass, has entrenched in the never camp. Which means if America’s going to act, it’s going to be the Democratic Party – a party that has spent much of the last half-century quivering at the sight of its own shadow – that does it. With Trump in the White House and Republicans controlling the Senate, nothing like the Green New Deal will become law in the next two years. But that’s not the play. The play is to empower the left to demand that the next Democratic candidate embrace an unapologetically green agenda, and it’s working: Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the first top-tier Dem to declare her presidential intentions, has endorsed the GND; so have likely contenders Cory Booker and Beto O’Rourke, who recently came under lefty fire for violating a pledge not to take fossil fuel money. Jay Inslee, the governor of Washington, is preparing a presidential campaign centered on climate change. By summer, expect every viable candidate to have an audacious climate change plan, most modeled off the GND. At minimum, winning the primary will mean acknowledging climate change as an existential threat requiring an immediate response. At best, the U.S. could be on the cusp of a long-overdue green revolution. To be sure, AOC won’t deserve all the credit if that happens; Al Gore was banging this drum while she was in high school. But, even before she cast her first vote, she helped light a fire that focused the left’s attention on the dominant news event of our time, Trump antics be damned. And no matter where her political career goes from here, that’s one hell of a legacy.

UCF brings its own version of artificial intelligence to Orlando’s real-time mass surveillance efforts BY M ON I V ET T E COR D EI R O A N D J O E Y R O U L E TTE

mazon’s facial recognition technology isn’t the only tool that Orlando is considering in its efforts to monitor the public using street cameras – the University of Central Florida has also developed a mass surveillance system for the city. UCF researchers have installed an artificial intelligence-powered software that can recognize facial characteristics and body movements to detect assaults, robberies and even explosions in real time. Orlando was the subject of blistering criticism in May after reports revealed that the police department was piloting Amazon’s Rekognition, a facial-recognition technology that plugs into security cameras to identify and track people of interest as they walk down the street. Although currently being tested on a small number of cameras throughout the city with volunteer Orlando police officers, when Rekognition becomes fully operational, it will look for “persons of interest” by tapping into Orlando’s network of surveillance cameras and essentially scanning everyone it can see until it finds a match. But in early 2016, students and professors from UCF’s Center for Research in Computer Vision were already using a $1.3 million federal grant to start testing software for the city’s surveillance network that would instantly flag suspicious activities. The Orlando Police Department assigns officers to watch dozens of screens displaying live feeds from the city’s estimated network of about 180 security cameras in a second-floor hub called the IRIS room. But the department eventually realized its surveillance capabilities were ineffective, says Raymond Surette, a criminal justice professor at UCF and one of the project’s researchers. “There are simply too many cameras and too few monitors,” UCF researchers wrote in a proposal for a grant from the National Institute of Justice. “Thousands of cameras go unwatched and hours of video unviewed.” The IRIS room was also inconsistently staffed with officers assigned to light duty, Surette says. “The goal is to get the human out of the task of sitting there and watching the screens,” Surette says. “Once you get above like 10 or 15 monitors, people just start missing things like crazy. There’s this thing called inattentional blindness that kicks in … psychologically, it’s just a boring task.”

With surveillance technology, the ultimate goal for police is predicting escalating threats to public safety so that “an assault on the street doesn’t turn into a murder on the street,” Surette says. To bolster OPD’s surveillance capabilities, UCF researchers proposed a four-function computer vision workstation with analytical software for anomaly detection, face-attribute prediction, bodyattribute prediction and action detection to test on cameras they originally planned to install in Orlando’s Rosemont neighborhood. First, though, researchers had to develop and test algorithms to train the software using hundreds of video clips containing simple actions like jumping, kicking and punching as well as more intricate activities like playing the violin or sumo wrestling. Like a human, the software needs to be trained to accurately distinguish the normal from the abnormal. “You need to anticipate that these things will happen, so you show enough examples of it to the system,” says Mahdi Kalayeh, a computer vision researcher at UCF whose software is embedded on OPD’s workstation. Action recognition and facial attribute software, Kalayeh says, fall under a field of artificial intelligence called object recognition. Unlike facial recognition, which looks for facial traits to identify a person in real-time within a camera’s field of view, action recognition is broader – looking for abnormal movements and gestures to alert police of suspicious events, or “anomalies,” like fights, drug deals or robberies. UCF researchers included anomalies such as abuse, arrest, arson, assault, burglary, explosion, fighting, road accidents, robbery, shooting, shoplifting, stealing and vandalism to train the software. The software could also label actions the surveillance videos recorded, creating a database officers could search by activity. To get ahead of a potential crime, Kalayeh says, the software is predictive – it’s designed to learn, through thousands of examples, what events and conditions

and “long hair,” and knows if the body it’s analyzing is wearing “sunglasses, hat, T-shirt, long sleeve, formal, shorts, jeans, long pants, skirt, face mask, logo [or] stripe,” according to the report. The software was better at recognizing some activities than others – covert drug deals, for example, were hard to distinguish, Surette says, but the more example videos are given to the software, the better it gets at identifying any activity. “If somebody walks up to their trunk, opens their trunk, and puts in their groceries, that quantitatively is pretty similar to somebody walking up to a trunk, popping it with a crowbar and taking out something,” he says. “The videos from these cameras are often obscured or not the best. So you’re often dealing with a very limited number of pixels. And pixels translate into data, and the less data you have, the more uncertainty you have.” UCF researchers purchased 10 cameras and related equipment with the NIJ grant money, including a server and storage, to establish a “community computer vision enhanced camera network” in the Rosemont neighborhood of west Orlando. But starting in 2017, the project was plagued by delays. The city’s technology management division took over the camera network, which meant agreements had to be renegotiated. OPD had to move the IRIS room to its new headquarters on South Street. Researchers struggled to keep the workstation staffed, and expanding construction sites on Interstate 4 repeatedly disrupted the test camera’s video streams, Surette says. And, like the city’s first pilot with Amazon Rekognition, scanty bandwidth on the police department’s computers meant researchers at the workstation could only use the software with no more than two cameras for real-time analysis, according to Surette. Emails requested by Orlando Weekly show Rosa Akhtarkhavari, Orlando’s chief information officer and the driving force behind Rekognition inside City Hall, tried to involve UCF researchers in the Rekognition project by including them in at least one general discussion in which Amazon developers talked about how the city’s police, traffic and fire departments could use their technology. But ultimately, Surette says, UCF decided not to become involved in the pilot.

precede an anomaly so it can alert law enforcement before future events happen. Kalayeh wrote the workstation’s facialattribute algorithms, which are tailored to seek more specific characteristics of a person’s face as shown in a mugshot or portrait. The software can detect up to 40 different attributes, ranging from large noses, stubble and high cheekbones to whether the person is “attractive,” according to a report researchers submitted to the National Institute of Justice in October. Officers can describe what someone looks like to the software – in essence, an advanced, law enforcement-tuned search engine for faces – and it will display a bank of people who match that description, pulling results from the police department’s live surveillance feeds or a predefined bank of images. “Let’s say I couldn’t take a photo, but the person was wearing a hoodie, he had black hair, glasses and a mustache,” Kalayeh says. An officer could use the program to search those traits within the live video feed of a neighborhood. “And of course it doesn’t directly give you the final person, but it narrows down from probably thousands of people to let’s say 100 people.” Kalayeh’s facialattribute software looks for the same set of features as facial recognition software, but the two are used for slightly different reasons, he says. Facial-attribute software is more predictive, spotting clues to build a digital picture of a person’s mood in order to anticipate their actions. An angry face could lead to hostility, while a happy face wouldn’t. Facial recognition software studies the same traits in a surveillance feed to identify a person by name, using an image to match. “We are not involved in facial-recognition work,” Mubarak Shah, the founding director of UCF’s CRCV and the study’s principal investigator, tells Orlando Weekly. But despite the differences, Kalayeh’s facial-attribution algorithms at OPD could be used to supplement Orlando’s facial recognition pilot with Amazon. Similarly, the “body-attribute prediction” recognizes characteristics like “male”

last summer so that the company could pitch its Rekognition program to the federal agency. Laperruque argues that real-time facial recognition surveillance could help the government track undocumented immigrants simply because of their legal status and scare them away from public places where cameras are located. The risk of misidentification is prevalent in facial recognition systems, particularly among dark-skinned women, and advocates fear a mistake could lead to a wrongful arrest or a deadly encounter. “City governments and police departments need to put the question before their citizens who are going to be affected by these programs before they roll them out,” Laperruque says. “Police and federal agencies spy first, ask permission later. This is highly advanced surveillance technology. These are the types of questions that should be going to the public before law enforcement is putting these tools into practice.” At a December meeting with Florida lawmakers, Mina was asked whether the Orange County Sheriff’s Office would be participating in any facial recognition programs. State Rep. Anna Eskamani, D-Orlando, who was at the meeting, said Mina confirmed twice that “no facial recognition” would be brought to the county. OCSO spokesperson Michelle Guido also told Orlando Weekly that “there were no plans in the immediate future for the Sheriff’s Office to undertake any kind of facial recognition program.” Asked if the Sheriff’s Office would consider using UCF’s software, Guido said there were “no plans to adopt any of those programs at this time.” Facial recognition technology is virtually unregulated by state and federal laws, and there are currently no bills in the Legislature that address the issue. Eskamani said that while the use of this technology is being watched in Central Florida because of Orlando’s involvement with Amazon, it’s “not on everybody else’s radar.” Still, Eskamani is encouraging organizations to take the “Safe Face Pledge” started by the Algorithmic Justice League and the Center on Technology & Privacy at Georgetown Law. The pledge promises to mitigate abuse of facial analysis technology. Among other things, it asks tech companies to refrain from selling facial recognition software to law enforcement “unless a governing legislative body has explicitly and publicly considered all potential harms and authorized use of the technology.” “This has to lead to a larger conversation on policy,” Eskamani says. “With this technology, we have to make sure we don’t oppress people’s privacy rights.”

“The move to the new building in combination with local construction projects resulted in the significant disruption and downtime of the existing police IRIS camera network,” the study said. “The purchase of cameras and support technology was additionally delayed by a lag in camera equipment specifications from the City of Orlando Technology Management Division.” Due to delays, the equipment purchased by UCF was ultimately transferred to OPD. Researchers debuted a working computer vision workstation with UCF’s software on June 12 that streams and duplicates nine video feeds before the project ended that month. “The project cumulated with a wellreceived demonstration of the developed computer vision capabilities and workstation to the Orlando Police Department staff at project’s conclusion,” the study said. “OPD is considering means to continue to staff the workstation in partnership with UCF and negotiations with OPD regarding on-going utilization … are in progress.” While UCF researchers turned in their study to the NIJ in October, Orlando was still assessing whether to continue funding students to monitor the computer vision workstation for research purposes. It currently sits unused in the IRIS room and is not being used by the department in its day-to-day policing, former Deputy Chief Mark Canty, who has since resigned from OPD to join former Chief John Mina at the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, told the Weekly. “Right now, it’s not being monitored,” Canty says. “When the grant ended, that kind of ended [UCF’s] funds to pay for those students. We’re trying to assess whether we’re going to continue on and keep the program going.”

Despite the UCF workstation hitting a financial roadblock and Amazon’s Rekognition program still being in the pilot phase, Akhtarkhavari sees no limits to the technologies Orlando might use to improve policing and advance itself as one of the nation’s “smart cities” – urban areas that invest in technology and intelligent design to create sustainable high-quality housing and jobs. “I’m envisioning a future where the city’s going to use whatever is available to address the city’s needs,” she says. “Whether that’s going to be UCF, Amazon, Microsoft, you know, the kid who’s writing a solution in their garage – whatever’s going to address our business needs can be stacked and support our mission. … We have to test it, we have to prove it works, and then we have to look at the cost for that and decide if the value and accuracy is worth it for us.” Potentially, OPD could use both Amazon Rekognition and UCF’s software to analyze the same video streams, Akhtarkhavari adds. “Obviously none of that is in production,” she says. “At this point, they’re working on two separate projects. Now, the city needs might intersect, so I’m not saying there is any defined role for one or the other at this point. Each project on its own has to show that it is providing value and it is costeffective. Then we’ll figure out which one we want to implement and how.”

for abuse with no federal or state laws to regulate it. “We’re basically talking about attaching artificial intelligence to surveillance cameras,” says Jay Stanley, a senior policy analyst with the ACLU Speech, Privacy and Technology Project. “As the AI gets better and better, it will allow individuals to be monitored in more intrusive and accurate ways, and that has the potential to create real, chilling effects on our society. How would you feel driving home with a police car behind you? I don’t want to feel that way all the time.” Canty argues that while OPD has noted the public’s concern, the department is committed to ensuring it uses the technology in a proper way that allows for community input. As he puts it, “This is not Minority Report.” “The goal is to look for people who are out there trying to hurt other people,” he says. “We’re looking for violent criminals and people who are in danger, in cases where we have information. It’s not just scanning a bunch of photos and hopefully we get something. We’re working a specific case, we have a specific suspect or endangered person, and we’re going to try to find them to prevent them from either harming somebody or to be recovered.” Civil liberties organizations including the ACLU and the Project on Government Oversight, as well as Amazon’s own employees, have pleaded with the company to stop selling its product to law enforcement agencies. But the retail and shipping giant has ignored these requests, says Jake Laperruque, senior counsel with POGO. Documents uncovered by POGO reveal that officials with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement met with Amazon

‘YOUR ROBOT DOG WILL DIE’

Arin Greenwood’s new book, a dystopia where dogs are robots and cruelty is kindness, challenges our notions about how far is too far BY CATHY SA LUSTR I

rin Greenwood moved to Gulfport, Florida, in 2015, where she fit right in because she’s as passionate about dogs as everyone else in the just-over-two-square-mile town. So when you read Your Robot Dog Will Die (Soho Press, 209 pages), don’t be shocked to learn the setting is a very similar two-square-mile town, with a casino and a seaside restaurant with a balcony over the water, separated from the mainland by sea level rise. In this fictional former town of “Beachport” (now Dog Island), houses splashed with color have plastic flamingoes in the front yard; people, horrified by the idea of animals living in servitude to people, live by strict tenets of veganism. There’s a dog sanctuary that has a small hill and kayaks nearby, and there are golf carts everywhere. If you’ve ever been to Gulfport, this may sound familiar. Locals will delight in reading it for that reason (and a few other striking similarities) alone, but Your Robot Dog Will Die, intended as a dystopian sci-fi YA work, tacitly challenges our notions of kindness and our world view of bioethics.

Without spoilers, here’s the nickel summary: Nano Miller lives on Dog Island after a genetic experiment on dogs caused them to globally turn on humans (yeah, you have to read the book to really get how that happened) and an unprecedented drought has created a world where instead of drinking water you – yep, you guessed it – drink recycled urine. Miller, her family and a small community of other humans are the lucky ones who get to live with the last remaining six dogs on earth. But as the story progresses, it becomes clear that the Dog Islanders have taken the idea of no Organic (non-robot creatures) suffering further than our society does today. But have they really taken it further, or have they merely allowed our “kind” actions today to evolve organically? The book opens with Nano surrendering her robot dog for the latest model – because it’s cruel to keep an Organic dog for one’s own needs, because Organics turned on humans due to scientific manipulation, because Organics are all but extinct – then cuts to Nano, Wolf and Jack – the only remaining kids on Dog Island – on the beach.

of Florida’s economic engine, generating $4.7 billion in activity and over 130,000 jobs in 2017 alone (according to the Department of State), but those statistics didn’t stop Republican legislators from slashing the state’s funding for cultural grants by 90 percent last year. Two local lawmakers are looking to reverse that trend: State Reps. Carlos Guillermo Smith and Anna V. Eskamani will host other elected officials and arts leaders at the Orlando Rep at 3 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 15, for a discussion on the future of arts and culture in Central Florida. “Art is a powerful platform that instills values and translates experiences across space and time,” says Eskamani. “We need the arts, and the arts need us.”

than the robot dogs, it seems like a typical YA novel, but things quickly turn and what follows calls into question the kindness of so-called ethical treatment of animals. And that question ratchets the story back from the dystopian Gulfport to present-day America, where we do all sorts of things in the name of kindness – PETA’s shelters that euthanize perfectly healthy homeless pets, for example, because it’s “kinder”; putting primates in cages to give them a “better” life; “saving” a dolphin with no tail and making it perform in an old water treatment facility – these things happen every day. And Greenwood’s work warns us, it seems, that we’re traveling a dangerous, uncompromising road. The way she weaves this delightfully heartbreaking, comically sobering dystopian story sets her work apart from most dystopian YA; her sensibilities – she’s an animal welfare journalist for many outlets and former animal welfare editor for the Huffington Post – allow her to balance, for example, the horrors of factory farming with the horrors of taking the “give all animals a life with no pain ever” philosophy to a horrific resolution. After reading the book – hell, while reading the book – I found myself questioning my level of animal protein consumption. Your Robot Dog Will Die made me question my food choices. Unlike some vegans who adopt a sanctimonious approach to converting others (hold onto your hate mail, I said some), Greenwood – who is a vegetarian – shows, in the most empathetic way possible, the reasons it’s probably a bad idea to eat animal products. She does what few can: Without proselytizing, she lets you feel the horrors not of an animal dying in a factory farm, but living in one, being born in one, existing only as a food source. I did not expect to read this book and immediately transform to veganism, but I also didn’t expect to feel compelled not to eat meat I hadn’t hunted and killed myself. Neither is the correct answer, for me, I suspect. But, like the book’s message, I suspect the true key to kindness isn’t all-ornothing either way. It’s balance.

If Doc Brown taught us anything,

it’s that time travelers must take care when encountering themselves, lest they rip a hole in the time-space continuum. But when I recently witnessed Henrik Ibsen’s heroine Nora Helmer meeting her younger self, her first words weren’t, “Great Scott!” but, “We have to go to lunch!” Suzanne O’Donnell, a 20-year veteran of Orlando’s stages, currently stars in Orlando Shakespeare’s production of A Doll’s House, Part 2, Lucas Hnath’s Tony-nominated 2017 sequel to Ibsen’s iconic door-slamming drama. Simultaneously, up-and-coming actress Ashleigh Ann Gardner will play the same role in the original play starting this weekend at Central Florida Community Arts. The pair met each other for the first time ever during an interview with me late last month, marking not only an encounter between two generations of characters and performers, but an unusual collaboration between Orlando’s premier professional company and a key community troupe. Audiences will remember O’Donnell from her many shows in Shakespeare’s Goldman Theater, including Winter’s Tale, Turn of the Screw and God of Carnage, while Gardner has most recently been seen in The Penelopiad at Valencia and CFCArts’ Noises Off. “I found out I was cast in Doll’s House, and I was so elated because this was kind of like a pipe dream,” says Gardner, who first read the play in college. “It’s a dream come true to be able to play one of the key feminist characters that I have looked up to for my entire theatrical career.” O’Donnell, on the other hand, confesses that she found the translation she read in college “creaky and oldey-timey” and that she’s never seen the original on stage, but

In an unusual collaboration between a professional company and a community troupe, two women play drama’s most polarizing heroine at opposite ends of her life acknowledges its historical importance. “This [play] upset people and upended things. I’ve always wanted to be part of a theater production where people were protesting, rioting and ripping the chairs out, because I fell like that’s what our theater is supposed to be doing. We’re supposed to be making people uncomfortable.” What made Ibsen’s script so scandalous [140-year-old spoiler alert] was Nora’s climactic abandonment of her husband, Torvald (played by Michael Geniac at CFCArts and Steven Lane at Shakes), and her two children. Her return 15 years later to finalize their divorce kicks off the followup, and though the scripts’ styles are very different, the shared central question, as O’Donnell puts it, “What do you owe yourself in this world, and what damage are you willing to do to fulfill that?” still remains relevant. “I have two kids and the thought of being away from them for 15 years makes my body hurt,” says O’Donnell. “She chose herself, which even in this day and age, we societally are not at ease with that.” At the same time, don’t be scared away by all the Scandinavian stress, since both actresses independently discovered an unexpected lightness in the role. “Penelopiad was very intense, it’s a very collaborative ensemble piece [and] I was on stage almost the entire time. … Nora is

so playful, and as a person I’m very playful, so I love being able to interact with [the cast],” says Gardner. “It is like a confection in a way,” adds O’Donnell, describing the play’s central relationship. “It’s delicious, it’s sweet, and there’s nothing at the center.” While the two performers are on the same page regarding many aspects of their character, the styles and processes of their two shows have some striking differences. Under director Robin Olson, Gardner’s squirrel-inspired movements have been influenced by wearing Nora’s constrictive corsets during rehearsals, which she says “definitely shapes your gait when you wear one, and makes me feel so much more like her.” O’Donnell, on the other hand, prefers working in the opposite way, saying, “I just want it in my body first … I’m slowly inching towards the corset thing because it is so wildly uncomfortable, and you can’t eat.” Instead, her focus has been on Hnath’s dense modern-language dialogue. “It’s almost like a piece of music the way the author has written it, with very specific stops, pauses and overlaps. It’s like learning a crazy jazz piece, so I spent four months just hard memorizing, because it goes at a clip. There’s not even any time to get yourself together and rest your head; it’s a wild ride.” It isn’t necessary to see one play to enjoy the other, but for the ultimate Doll’s House day, you’ll want to attend the double feature performance on Jan. 26, which includes a buffet dinner and Q&A with the creatives of both shows. And if you can’t handle both back-to-back, discounts are also available for those seeing both shows on separate days; visit dollshouseplay.com for details. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

CONTINENTAL SHIFT European steakhouse chain sets its sights on the American consumer BY FAIYAZ KARA

a Boucherie is a flat-out threat. This French outfit from Limousin appropriated the concept and ideals of the American chain restaurant, Gallicized it, expanded it all over France, then brought it here to shove into our faces. What really stings is that La Boucherie is a steakhouse – a steakhouse! What’s next? Buffalo wings from Bordeaux? Texas barbecue from Toulouse?? Oh, if only we had a Department of Homeland Gastronomy. We’d build walls – good ol’ fashioned WALLS, I say! – to protect national treasures such as Ruth’s Chris and, umm, Outback Steakhouse from the caravans of foreign restaurants invading our shores. OK, faux jingoistic preambles aside, there may be a niche in this city for an uppermiddle-class steakhouse – one that fills the gap between an Outback and a Ruth’s Chris – and if it happens to be a chain from France with more than 130 locations scattered about Europe and elsewhere, well, c’est la vie. La Boucherie (“The Butcher Shop”) is a casual, approachable eatery where the branding is as unmistakably American as a TGI Friday’s in all its red-and-white striped glory. But then the laminated menu reveals glossy pics of foie gras ($17.50), roasted

bone marrow ($7.50) and a seasonal terrine ($7.10). There are escargots ($9.50), buttery and even-handedly garlicked, served in a ceramic snail plate along with toasted baguette slices. Baguettes, by the way, are flown in from France, which may seem odd at first, but when you learn the restaurant is run by Claude Wolff, owner of sandwich joint Le Café de Paris on Dr. Phillips Boulevard, it makes sense. Wolff imports bread for his café from a small village in his home region of Lorraine, and uses it at La Boucherie as well. You’ll see the toasted rounds next to an alpine heap of mustardy steak tartare ($17.80) studded with onions and capers and topped with an egg yolk. It’s listed on the menu along with two other ground steaks (both of the cooked variety), but unlike the other two, which are offered in small and regular-sized portions, the tartare is only offered in the larger helping. It would make sense to offer it in a smaller, appetizer-sized portion but, with some effort, we happily stuffed it all into our bouches, along with perfect thick-cut fries. Oh, the menu states the tartare will be “prepared at your table to your own liking” and “please enjoy the

OPENINGS Counter-service joint Domu Chibi is now ladling ramen in Waterford Lakes … Pokéworks, one of the fastest-growing poke chains in the country, has opened on West Mitchell Hammock Road in Oviedo … Coco Cocina Mexicana is the latest concept to open in the space most recently occupied by Gaviota Seafood on South Eola Drive in Thornton Park … City Pub is now serving residents in the North Quarter … High-street taqueria MX Taco by chef Ryan Manning has soft-opened on Bumby in the Milk District … Sushi Pop has opened its Winter Park outpost … Look for Sanctum Coffee & Juice Bar, by the owners of Sanctum Cafe, to open on Douglas Avenue in Altamonte Springs next week … Sus Hi Eatstation will move into the former Mai Bistro space on East Colonial Drive. Next door, Vietnamese restaurant Z Asian is about a month out from opening … Midici will start serving Neapolitan-style pizzas in the Maitland City Centre on Jan. 26 … Look for MOD Pizza, offering custom, artisan-style pizzas and salads that are “made on demand” and served “superfast,” to open at the Vineland Pointe shopping center.

show.” Well, it wasn’t prepared at our table and, frankly, I wouldn’t have trusted our well-meaning, though novice and somewhat forgetful, server to do so anyway. But we enjoyed it just fine nevertheless. Another ground-up delight, the “maquignon” ($14.25), has a hand-formed patty wedged between two hashbrown “buns” layered with onion, bacon and cheese sauce. Looked and tasted pretty darned American to me, and I couldn’t help but wonder for a moment if the French were beating us at our own game with this one. Now to the steaks. They’re USDA Choice cuts (no fancy Prime here) and ordering the mixed grill ($24.90) gets you a trio of chef’s selections. We were served 3-ounce cuts of flavorless flank, superbly tender sirloin and “steak frites” (which amounted to a cut of top sirloin served with pan-roasted potatoes). The steak was great, as were the potatoes, but not exactly steak frites. For the steak-averse, there’s a traditional pot au feu ($22.50), rosemary lamb shank ($19.50) and duck breast ($19.50), among other bistro classics. There’s even a blanquette de veau ($20.80) for your inner Julia Child. The wine list won’t blow you away – this isn’t Bern’s, after all – but there’s a decent enough selection, as well as Kronenbourg and La Fin du Monde beers on tap. There are a surprising number of desserts offered (12!) but the floating island ($6), comprising meringue atop crème anglaise and caramel, and the profiteroles au chocolat ($9.10) will have you humming “La Marseillaise” on your way out the door. Zut! So much for national pride.

CLOSINGS Taco closures: Taste of Yucatan, one of the better taquerias in town, has shuttered … Four Rebels, one of the not-sobetter taquerias in town, has closed in Mills Park … California Tortilla, a taqueria only open for nine months, has closed on Church Street … Also downtown, Beth’s Burger Bar on East Washington Street has closed after six years.

A fifth daily rotating vendor keeps things interesting. Open daily. 609 Irvington Ave., 407-776-4693; $$

STASIO’S ITALIAN DELI It’s not Eataly, but this Milk District gastronomia sells scores of Old Country finds, from cheeses and pastas to oils and flour. The cold case is chock-full of fresh-made sausages and antipasti, while the hot case showcases everything from stuffed pork chops to chicken San Remo. House-made bread and fresh meats yield superb sandwiches, though don’t overlook strombolis and definitely don’t overlook the pastries – flaky, creamfilled sfogliatelle are outstanding.

The city’s second Ethiopian restaurant offers diners another option to get handsy with their food. Of note is an explosive doro wat, a thick crimson stew reddened by the addition of berbere, a potent powdered spice blend and staple of Ethiopian cooking. Tear off pieces of spongy injera and enjoy. Ye beg tibs (a sauté of lamb) and raw beef kitfo heavily essenced with cardamom are two others to pay heed to. There are plenty of options for veg diners. Pair it all with tej, a sweet honey mead beverage. Open daily. 5494 Central Florida Parkway, 407-590-4571; $$

BEM BOM ON CORRINE Lengthy delays and cost overruns aside, Bem Bom’s brick-and-mortar operation in Audubon Park has become a true destination. Diners come for the Portuguese, Mexican and Mexiguese fare, particularly succulent and well-spiced chicken piri piri, grilled chouriço, fiery carnitas tacos, center-cut salted cod, and tender carne asada with chimichurri. Items are being added to the menu with each passing week, so be on the lookout for grilled sardines with cabbage curtido and pastel de bacalhau. Closed Monday. 3101 Corrine Drive, 407-960-5101; $$

THE H CUISINE Turkish steakhouse has a flair for tableside theatrics à la Salt Bae, but there’s no denying the quality cuts and showstopping preparations, be it a 28-day dry-aged, bone-in ribeye or luscious “chateau filet” for two finished in a butter-pooled hot plate. Steak tartare blended with bone marrow starts things off in a properly beefy manner, though a salad of goat cheese, walnuts and pomegranate-studded vinaigrette is just as gratifying. Strozzapreti finished inside a flaming Parmesan wheel fuses gusto with gimmick. Don’t overlook the intriguing Turkish desserts. Open daily. 7512 Dr. Phillips Blvd., 407-930-3020; $$$$

LE COQ AU VIN Venerated restaurant has lost much of its luster over the years, though its menu of classic French cuisine (with dishes that miss the mark more often than not) are still as pricey as ever. Two dishes that are worth a look: the namesake coq au vin and canard done two ways – as a crispy leg confit and a sliced duck breast scented with lavender and honey. Closed Mondays. 4800 S.

Antonin Scalia or Brett Kavanaugh? (OK, maybe not Kavanaugh, but you get where I’m going.) In other words, is the craft worthy of the content? Somewhat. As Ruth and her husband, Jones and Hammer again prove their acting chops, cultivating nuanced, sensitive portrayals from occasionally heavy-handed dialogue and clichéd situations. Jones gives a particularly sympathetic performance and even bears a striking resemblance to the young Ruth. She also enjoys good chemistry with both Hammer and Justin Theroux (Mulholland Drive), who plays an ACLU organizer. Sam Waterston is also somewhat effective as the closest thing the film has to an antagonist, but Kathy Bates (as a civil-liberties lawyer) and Stephen Root (as a crusty law professor) are miscast and distracting. On the Basis of Sex is at its best when it dispassionately weaves its story of an iconic American who was once told, “Women are too emotional to be lawyers.” But it’s at its worst when it cloyingly encourages us to cheer – silently, of course – for Ginsburg. Thankfully, the best moments outshine the worst. And though the film, unlike its subject, is neither exceptional nor surprising, this juror is returning a thumbs-up verdict. With Aquaman still swallowing the box office and a host of other holiday films competing for your dollar, it’s unlikely On the Basis of Sex will be in cinemas long. But if it is, justice will have been served. feedback@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

The Upside BY ST EVE SCHN EID ER

OPENING THIS WEEK: A Dog’s Way Home Ever since he had to evade the Goat Killer in American Graffiti, Charles Martin Smith has been on the side of the animals. These days, his career seems to consist mostly of directing pictures (like the two Dolphin Tale flicks) that appeal to people whose moviegoing strategy entails striding up to the box office and inquiring, “Whaddaya got that doesn’t star a biped?” Smith’s latest project, A Dog’s Way Home, is about a canine that has to travel hundreds of miles to rendezvous with her owner. It’s based on the book of the same name by W. Bruce Cameron, who likewise has hammered out a cottage industry of appealing to fauna fanciers with novels like A Dog’s Purpose and A Dog’s Journey (not to mention the forthcoming A Dog’s Guide to Love and Murder). Hey, I love dogs as much as the next guy. But when I see a grizzled old veteran canoodling with a lost pup in the trailer to a flick like this, I’m moved to quote Smith’s Toad when he thought he was about to witness the Goat Killer’s latest atrocity: “I don’t wanna see it!” (PG) Norm of the North: Keys to the Kingdom Hey, remember Norm the polar bear? Of course you don’t. His first animated feature was a box-office dud and initially racked up a 0 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes. (It later clawed its way to an impressive 9 percent.) His second adventure is opening in select theaters and on demand, which these days is about one step up from going straight to Lite-Brite.

And if all of that doesn’t scare you off, know this: Even Rob Schneider wouldn’t come back for round two. (NR) Replicas Keanu Reeves plays a neuroscientist who … nope, that’s it. I’m out. Enjoy your 2019, everybody. (PG-13) The Upside OK, I’m back. I couldn’t leave without letting you know about this remake of a French comedy, in which ex-con Kevin Hart gets to take care of paraplegic Bryan Cranston. By the time you read this, Ellen DeGeneres may have been successful in getting Hart reinstalled as host of the Oscars. And speaking of which, you know who else is good at reinstalling hearts? Neuroscientists, like the one played by Keanu … nope, still can’t do it. See you next week. (PG-13)

JAMMIN’ ON THE ONE Rolling Stones sideman Karl Denson brings his musical constellation to Orlando BY KYLE EAGLE

axophonist and bandleader Karl Denson has logged in years of playing with musical luminaries like the Greyboy All-Stars, Lenny Kravitz and a little beat combo called the Rolling Stones, all the while crafting his own extensive discography. And circa 2019, all of these combined musical experiences are starting to show through in Denson’s own music; his playing and vocal delivery is more lithe, powerful and sexy than ever. And though Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe doesn’t really deal in Jagger-esque swagger onstage, the band are an explosive experience in their own right. Denson is rolling through town in a leadup to the release of a new album, Gnomes and Badgers, due in March. The music, like his band, Tiny Universe, is densely populated with styles, players, licks, riffs and a cornucopia of musical ideas that he’s been cultivating for decades. Denson’s sound walks a soulful line between jazz, funk and blues. For those who like some Sly Stone vibes in their rock, and maybe even some jam band flow in their jazz, Mr. Denson will more than accommodate.

Listening to this record, there’s a recurring message about the national discourse going on today. It’s got a little bite to it. The idea was to make a blues/funk record about the relationships of people and how we communicate with each other. It’s necessary right now with all that’s going in the country and the world … we need to talk a little bit more and listen a little bit better. That’s really what Gnomes and Badgers is all about.

So, when you come to town what are you all bringing? New tunes, old ones, covers? Well, it’s going to going to be a lot of us. A lot of everything … I’m going to try to discard the covers, and start to cover myself, and our own music, and give it a new treatment. The band is really in a good place, and locked and loaded as far as our sound goes, and [I’m] teaching the band to be a little bit freer and more open and a little less jazzy, and a little more jam band-y.

The jam band ethic is a good move to make as far as concertgoers are concerned, and a great way to excite and reach out to them. We tend to be more of the jazz guys on the jam band circuit. I’m trying to eliminate all the solos and see what happens every night.

Where did the title come from? The title was a throwaway from the Greyboy All-Stars; they didn’t want to use it, and I loved that title and grabbed it. I thought it would a great vehicle for a dialogue for the right and the left. I then turned it into my own thing.

As a full-winged

seven-piece band, they stroke it grandly with a big, taut sound flush with pedal steel, piano and organ. And even with all their jokey lyrical tendencies, their playing is studiously lined with the soul of tradition in ways that feel anything but ironic. Even though Cracker was the marquee name as the more successful cult band, in some ways the more momentous appearance was Camper Van Beethoven, a group dating back to the dawn of American alternative rock that’s been willed back to life. Emerging in the 1980s, a time when the nascent indie rock scene was far less hip to folk and roots styles than it would be in subsequent decades, CVB were a somewhat misunderstood group at the time who now seem prescient. The irreverent spirit of both bands was manifest on stage. But while Cracker’s playing was expert and stout, Camper’s heart beat with more raw art and daring when side by side. The first and last time I saw CVB was as a kid, opening for a bigger band and being woefully underappreciated. So it was especially nice seeing their signature combination of rangy roots experimentation and classic alternative pulse again after all these years, under some of their own spotlight and with the verdict of history on their side. All told, it wasn’t just a deep pairing of some rock mavericks but a whole lot of music history loaded into one night. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Diana Ross MUSIC

Celestial diva Diana Ross – she of Supremes and R&B solo legend – ended 2018 big; she wrapped her glittering Las Vegas residency, appeared on a float at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and even released a Christmas album. Now she’s starting 2019 right by bringing her “Brand New Day” tour to the South. The choice of hits she can pull from is nearly mind-boggling – from girlgroup barn-burners to sensual disco gems to torchy show-stoppers. As well, her voice and mystique are undiminished over 40 years of relentless performing. One of a kind. – Matthew Moyer 8 p.m. | Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave. | 844-513-2014 | drphillipscenter.org | $49.50-$129.50

Proud/Father MUSIC

New Orleans’ Sebastian Figueroa is recognized around the country as a respected member of the experimental noise underground, but that’s almost too reductive a description for the soundscapes and (yes) music he creates as Proud/Father. We see him as a spiritual descendent of Robert Fripp with his Frippertronics experiments, channeling multiple guitar lines through processors and effects boxes to create lush, dreamlike reveries and storms. But there’s a very heavy – and very timely, especially in the age of Trump’ed up panic over the so-called caravan – conceptual underpinning to Figueroa’s work, in particular the effects of imperialism on Central America and Puerto Rico, and the gradual creep of obsolescence across medium and message. Fri(G)id, also from New Orleans, bring ice-cold industrial noise from a fresh new voice in the scene. Rounding out the Central Florida support contingent for the evening are Dylan Houser’s Formaldehydra, Belly Queen and Unfade. – MM with Fri(G)id, Belly Queen, Unfade, Formaldehydra | 9 p.m. | Uncle Lou’s, 1016 N.

Art Show at Hammered Lamb: Sleds ART

One thing Orlando is rich in is professional creatives – someone’s gotta create and market all of our touristy goodness, after all. The upside of that is we locals get to enjoy the fruit of their off-the-clock efforts, i.e., the murals, prints and paintings that are labors of love. Schiani Ledo is one such local design professional. As his after-hours alter ego, Sleds, Ledo creates sexy swans, meditating yetis and other whimsical yet sharpedged characters. (His CryptLife T-shirt was one of our Shop Local Gift Guide picks in 2018.) Along with original paintings on wood, Ledo will have T-shirts and prints for sale at the opening. – Jessica Bryce Young

In the early 2000s, emo went from post-hardcore offshoot to anemic mainstream commodity, selling its soul wholesale in the process. But now that true emo is in full renaissance with a generation of bright upstarts rising to reclaim the roots of the genre, it’s only fitting that some of the OGs reunite to get their daps. Even with only a brief four-year career, Austin, Texas, band Mineral were one of those leading lights whose legend has only snowballed since their 1997 breakup. Since reuniting in 2014, they’ve taken a victory lap that’s spanned the globe. Now, they’re celebrating their 25th anniversary with a hardcover book and a couple of new songs, their first in 20 years. Their Orlando stop is an especially loaded lineup top to bottom with buzzing Polyvinyl act Tancred and Tampa’s Pohgoh, themselves a reunited band with genuine emo cred and their first new album in 21 years (the J. Robbins-produced Secret Club). No fill on this bill, so show up early. – Bao Le-Huu

Orlando Fringe Winter Mini-Fest THEATER

Not that we have to wait too much longer for the full-blown Orlando Fringe to return (May 14-27), but Fringe’s Winter Mini-Fest is a welcome kick-off to the theatrical calendar year. In its third year, Winter Mini-Fest expands from a handful of plays to a downright, well, miniature festival, with 22 productions spread out over four days. That’s more than we can usually fit in to two weeks of Fringing in the spring. Favorites like unofficial Fringe mascot Bikini Katie’s Beneath the Bikini and Logan Donahoo’s Field Guide to the Gays return, along with shows from out-of-towners like Portlandian Chase Padgett’s Heart Attacks & Other Blessings, Kafka and Son from Toronto’s Theaturtle and Martin Dockery’s You Belong Here. Just like the big Fringe, you’ll need to buy a $3 button to support the festival since all the money from ticket sales goes directly to the artists. – Thaddeus McCollum various times | Loch Haven Park, 777 E.

The Pauses Present: 1998 MUSIC

The Pauses’ annual tribute to the music of 20 years ago arrives a little late for its 1998 version, but we’re ready to give them a pass based on the potential strength of the playlist. 1998 was a weirdly great year for music. The sound and fury of the promised alt-rock revolution earlier in the decade had been defanged and polished by the corporate machine, but bands as disparate as the Offspring, Marilyn Manson and Refused leaned into it in one way or another, either by embracing it, commenting on it or vehemently rejecting it. The pop landscape got brighter with the debuts of *NSYNC and Britney Spears. The “electronica” scene (yes, that’s what we called it for a minute) saw landmark releases from Air and Massive Attack, and began to creep into the mainstream on Madonna’s Ray of Light and Fatboy Slim’s runaway hit, “The Rockafeller Skank.” And over in hiphop, 1998 saw the release of Mos Def and Talib Kweli’s Black Star, Jay-Z’s Vol. 2 … Hard Knock Life, A Tribe Called Quest’s The Love Movement and Outkast’s Aquemini all on the same day. Which is all to say that the Pauses – along with the likes of the Sh-Booms, Zap Dragon and Matt Kamm’s Tele & the Ghost of Our Lord – have their work cut out for them. Thankfully, Smilin’ Dan and our own Bao Le-Huu will be filling in the gaps with jam-packed DJ sets between the live covers for a comprehensive trip down memory lane. – TM with the Sh-Booms, Tele & the Ghost of Our Lord, Zap Dragon, Punctuality Award, DJ Bao, DJ Smilin’ Dan | 9 p.m. | Will’s Pub, 1042 N.

Orlando Philharmonic Focus Chamber Series: Mahler and Chen Yi MUSIC

Gustav Mahler composed his “Lied von der Erde” (Song of the Earth) in the depths of much personal sorrow, and you can hear it in the work. He was inspired by a book of poems by Li Po, translated from the Chinese into German and published during his annus horribilis, and set seven of them to music, synthesizing a masterly evocation of the fragility and transience of life (along with some heartfelt appreciation for the joys of drunkenness because, well, Chinese poetry). The year’s first installment of Orlando Phil’s Focus Series pairs “Das Lied von der Erde” with a composition by Chen Yi, a Guangzhou-born composer who survived the Cultural Revolution and probably could tell some tales of life’s reversals herself. The Focus Series chamber performances, which are presented at the Plaza Live in a more intimate setting than the full-orchestra Bob Carr concerts, are an excellent chance to feel the textures of the compositions more closely as well as a more affordable way to experience classical music – not to be passed up. – Jessica Bryce Young 7 p.m. | The Plaza Live, 425 N.

Are you looking for a new pal? Say hello to Nicholas!

Nicholas (A418428) was brought here in November after his previous owner moved and left him behind. He was brought in with two other cats, and after they were both adopted, Nicholas became depressed and went to foster care to receive some much-needed TLC. His foster mom reports that he loves naps and looking out the window, and he’s very laid-back. If you are interested in meeting him, please email fostercare@ocfl.net. He is 8 years old and is ready for adoption! Happy 2019! Bark into the Mew Year with a new furry friend. During the month of January, all pets are $20 off the standard adoption fee. Each pet will be spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, Florida near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m. through 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and from 1 p.m. through 5 p.m. Sunday. For more information, please call 407-8363111 or visit ocnetpets.com.

I’m a 40-year-old guy with a 30-year-old girlfriend. We’ve been together a year, and I can see a future with her. But there are problems. This girl comes after two minutes of stimulation, be it manual, oral or penile. As someone who takes pride in my foreplay/ pussy-eating abilities, this is a bummer. She gets wet to the point where all friction is lost during PIV and my boners don’t last. It’s like fucking a bowlful of jelly. Part of me is flattered that I get her off, but damn I miss a tight fit! (Her oral skills aren’t great, either, so that’s not an option, and anal is a no-go.) I love to fuck hard, and that’s difficult when I’m sticking my dick into a frictionless void. Is there a way to decrease wetness? Help, please. Can’t Last Inside Tonight First things first: She’s not doing anything wrong, CLIT, and neither are you – at least you’re not doing anything wrong during sex. (When you sit down to write letters to advice columnists, on the other hand …) She can’t help how much wetness she produces, any more than you can help how much pre-ejaculate you pump out. And all that moisture is there for a good reason: It preps the vagina for penetration. In its absence, PIV can be extremely painful for the fuckee. So the last thing you want to do is dry your girlfriend up somehow. Now here’s something you are doing wrong: “It’s like fucking a bowlful of jelly,” “I miss a tight fit,” “Her oral skills aren’t great, either,” “I’m sticking my dick into a frictionless void.” You’re going to need to have a conversation with your girlfriend about this, you’ll need to use your words, but you can’t have that conversation – not a constructive one – until you can find some less denigrating, resentful, shame-heaping words. Again, she’s doing nothing wrong. She gets very wet when she’s turned on. That’s just how her body works. Too much lubrication makes it harder for you to get off. That’s how your body works. And this presents a problem that you two need to work on together, but insults like “bowlful of jelly” and “frictionless void” are going to shut the conversation down and/or end the relationship. So try this instead: “I love how turned on you get, honey, and I love how wet you get. But it can make it difficult for me to come during PIV.” If you don’t put her on the defensive, you might be able to have a constructive conversation and come up with some possible PIV hacks. If there’s a move (clitoral stimulation) or an event (her first orgasm) that really opens up the tap, CLIT, save that move or delay that event until after you’ve climaxed or until after you’ve reached the point of orgasmic inevitability – if PIV isn’t painful for her when she’s a little less wet.

“MEN AND WOMEN”

city I was living in to escape a toxic relationship. I know this girl has feelings for me. My gut screams it. We also share a strange connection. It’s something I know she feels. She simply can’t help being tied to the energy I’m feeling. A while back, I hurt her. Unintentionally, but it hurt just the same. I was still not over my ex and very leery of ever experiencing that kind of pain in my heart again. The problem now is that this young woman won’t acknowledge her feelings for me. She swears she never had feelings for me. We found ourselves alone one day, and her actions were clearly indicating that she wanted to have sex with me but her words prevented me from taking the opportunity. How can I reach this girl? She knows I love her. I know I’m not wrong. She wants what I want. This love is not something I chose and I’m beginning to resent it. In Lasting Love

You can also experiment with different positions to find one that provides you with a little more friction and doesn’t hit her clit just so – perhaps doggy style – and then shift into a position that engages her clit when you’re going to come. And there’s no shame in pulling out and stroking yourself during intercourse before diving back in. Be constructive, get creative and never again speak of her pussy like it’s a defective home appliance, CLIT. I’m a woman in an open relationship of four years. I adore my partner. When we were first dating, it was casual and there were no ground rules. During that time, I slept with a guy without condoms after he cornered me in a motel room. One of the biggest rules in my current relationship is to use condoms with other partners. My current partner has made it clear that he would consider exchanging fluids with someone else cheating. I’m worried he’ll somehow find out about that night in the motel room, and I feel bad keeping it a secret. If I tell him, there’s a chance that our relationship will end and I’ll be living in my car. What should I do? Burdensome Unbearable Guilt Sucks

You are wrong. She does not want what you want. Your gut is lying to you. She is not in love with you. You do not share a connection. You need to listen to her words. She is not tied to the “energy” you are feeling. You have got to stop thinking with your dick. She was probably scared out of her wits when you managed to “find” her alone. You cannot reach this woman. She can sense your resentment and she’s afraid of you. In all honesty, ILL, I’m afraid of you. Just as this poor woman most likely fears becoming one of the many women murdered every year by men they’ve rejected, I fear being the messenger who got shot. But you asked for my advice, ILL, and here it is: Get into therapy. You need help. And my advice for her, if she sees this, is to do whatever you must to protect yourself – up to and including moving away.

This thing happened – or this thing was done to you – before you made a commitment to your current partner, BUGS, and before ground rules were established. I’m assuming you got tested at some point over the last four years; failing that, I’m assuming neither of you has developed symptoms of an STI over the last four years. (And condoms don’t protect us from all the STIs out there, so even if you did come down with something, your partner could have passed it to you.) So cut yourself some slack, BUGS: You had unprotected sex under a sadly common form of duress. Fearing something much worse, you “agreed” to unprotected sex – you agreed but didn’t freely consent to unprotected sex. Too many men don’t understand that kind of fear or the deescalation techniques women are forced to employ when they find themselves cornered by threatening men – de-escalation techniques that can include “agreeing” to but not freely consenting to sex, unprotected or otherwise. You’re under no obligation to tell your current partner about that night, as it took place before you established your ground rules, so it’s not really any of his fucking business. And if homelessness is a potential consequence of telling your partner how you were pressured into sex you did not want, then you’re lying to him now for the same reason you went bare with that asshole back then: duress.
