Inside Track

Adam Musick

The recent resignation of UGA Associate Athletic Director Frank Crumley because of his relationship with a subordinate, for whom he apparently secured a better job and a raise within the department, brings to mind a situation with some parallels in the Athens Downtown Development Authority.

In the ADDA, local attorney Bill Overend is chairman of the board of directors. He was dating Elise LeQuire when she was elevated last December from having had a part-time job with the ADDA to the newly created position of marketing director, with no other candidates for the job. Overend did not disclose his relationship with LeQuire to Executive Director Pamela Thompson, who hired her. Overend and LeQuire have since become engaged. She continues as marketing director, while he continues to serve as chairman.

Overend did not answer email or telephone requests for an interview, nor did board attorney Jim Warnes or several other board members, though one spoke off the record, and member Regina Quick suggested talking with Pamela Thompson, which had already happened.

Thompson answered questions about LeQuireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hiring.

She says she hired LeQuire because she knew and respected her work. She says that she created the full-time marketingdirector position after two part-time employees left. In regard to the relationship between Overend and LeQuire, Thompson says she never asks people sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hiring about their personal relationships.

Thompson says that she is totally in charge of hiring and firing personnel and managing them, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;no board members, including the chair,â&#x20AC;? are involved. She therefore feels no awkwardness supervising the now-fiancĂŠe of the board chairman.

Apparently, few board members feel any awkwardness about it, eitherâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;assuming they know.

Ken Dious, Yes! I have known Ken Dious for 40 years, and all that while he has been practicing law here in Athens. His son Kevin went to Clarke Central with my daughter Molly. Ken and I arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t close friends, but we have that easy familiarity that comes over time to people who are accustomed to being on the same side politically. I can think of a lot of people Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather have in Congress than Ken, but none of them ran. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m grateful that Ken is running, because he is our only choice now instead of another fanatical, science-denying, anti-woman, anti-government, psuedo-constitutionalist ready to continue the 10th District tradition of making us a laughing-stock while accomplishing absolutely nothing. The whole point of the national congress is to compromise and bring unity out of the many divergent views of the various statesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x153;e pluribus unum.â&#x20AC;? Hice does not believe in that. He belongs to the fanatic right wing that wants to see government fail and only right-wing doctrine prevail.

Dious is the opposite of the Hice-type candidate. Dious is in the Mr. Smith Goes to Washington traditionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;he is not an ideologue; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to Washington to push any kind of agenda except trying to figure out the best way to solve some of the problems besetting our people. I have not always agreed with Ken, for instance when he stubbornly tried to sell his property to a gas station that would have encroached on the surrounding neighborhood, and certainly not when he pushed for the abolition of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;super districtsâ&#x20AC;? in our local government in the mistaken belief that it would increase minority representation. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.

But Ken is our only chance to avoid a candidate even worse than Paul Broun. Everybody says thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no way for Ken Dious to win, but a big vote here in Athens will help. Democrats will be going to the polls all over the district to vote for Jason Carter and Michelle Nunn, anyway, so we can vote for Ken, too. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hoping, also, that there are a lot of Republicans in Athens, at least, who would rather vote for Ken than send a bad copy of Paul Broun to Washington. Remember, Republican stalwarts, all you have to do is mark the box next to Ken Dious. All the races are on the same ballot in the general election. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all get together and vote for Ken Dious. â&#x20AC;&#x153;E pluribus unum.â&#x20AC;? Dig it.

In response to â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Red Zone: Sexual Assaults on the UGA Campus Peak in the Fall,â&#x20AC;? (Oct. 1) David Schick does a fantastic job of analyzing the legal underreporting of sexual assault on campus, despite the fall peak in assaults, but fails to mention one other key component of sexual assault cases on college campuses. Besides The Cleary Act and necessary legal reporting of assaults on campus, there is one other entity working towards justice on the UGA campus: the Equal Opportunity Office, which is responsible for enforcing Title IX. I think it would be incredibly interesting to see how UGA has actually enforced Title IX in regards to sexual assault, as most victims do not realize that there can be scholastic disciplinary action towards the perpetrators of assault. These punishments include, but are not limited to, changing class schedules, moving residence halls, suspension and even expulsion of students.

HICE IS NOT INEVITABLE

As I said in print when he declared, I was glad he was running for senator in that he would lose and no longer be my congressman.

But I spoke too soon. The GOP candidate is actually worse than Broun.

It is unfortunate that Flagpole has chosen through its â&#x20AC;&#x153;inevitabilityâ&#x20AC;? language and tone to anoint a right wing radical like Jody Hice as our next congressman. By assuming this election to be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;done deal,â&#x20AC;? Flagpole and other papers create the false aura of invincibility.

I am a Republican and a former GOP county chairman. But, that does not mean that I will vote for someone with extremist viewpoints who has no interest in getting anything done in Washington.

Hopefully, others will follow my example, with no help from Flagpole.

Honey, you got to slow down. something, and there’s probably nothing the mayor or anyone else can do to stop them. At that point, it would make even less sense than it does now for ACC to keep sitting on their hands.

Student Housing: Two months ago, the ACC Planning Commission lambasted a proposal for yet another “luxury” student apartment building downtown, this one with a roundly booed modernist architectural style to be built on the site of Four Athens’ offices across Lumpkin Street from the planning department. The developer, a national company specializing in student housing, came back to the planning commission Oct. 2 with some revisions, including reducing the size from 237 bedrooms to 210, but still asked for several variances. Planning commissioners denied those requests, telling the developer to work with the planning staff to meet the code, instead.

Incidentally, ACC-Commissioner-elect Melissa Link spoke out against the proposal at the meeting, which is not unusual at all for her but is highly unusual for a city-county commissioner. If she were to vote on this project as a commissioner, any comments she made beforehand could be grounds for a lawsuit.

Another project to watch is the redevelopment of the Omni West shopping center on West Broad Street. Owner Paul Martin asked for a rezoning from residential to commercial on one acre adjacent to the shopping center to make it more attractive to a buyer but didn’t say what would be built there. Planning commissioners told Martin to come back with a proposed use and plan for the property before they’ll consider rezoning it.

Y’all Come Back Now, Y’Hear: The Athens Convention and Visitors Bureau had its annual meeting Oct. 2, and they always throw a lot of numbers at you at these things. Since we’re in the midst of football season and everyone is bitching and moaning about the traffic and the drunken idiots, though, it’s worth a reminder that tourists spent $256 million in Athens in 2013, enough to support 2,510 jobs and generate $7 million in local tax revenue.

To put it another way, visitors lower your annual property tax bill by $407, according to UGA professor Bynum Boley. Think about that the next time a Dawg fan parks on your lawn and you feel like keying his car.

With all of the focus on campaigns for governor and senator, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to forget there are other statewide races on the ballot. These offices range from lieutenant governor to labor commissioner, and most of them were captured by Republicans in the great election sweep of 2010 that cemented Georgiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position as one of the reddest states. In every instance, the Republican incumbent has raised many more dollars from contributors than the Democratic opponent.

Lt. Gov. Casey Cagle had $2.02 million in contributions. His challenger, former legislator Connie Stokes, reported $60,997 in contributions. Attorney General Sam Olens raised $3.13 million. Greg Hecht, a former state legislator, raised $317,092, which is a credible amount for a statewide campaign but is barely one-tenth the money Olens had. Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black pulled in $1.39 million in contributions. Chris Irvin, the grandson of former commissioner Tommy Irvin, reported only $44,012. Secretary of State Brian Kemp had $1.06 million in contributions, while Democratic nominee Doreen Carter reported a miniscule $10,766. That gave Kemp a financial advantage of almost 100-to-one.

Insurance Commissioner Ralph Hudgens raised $876,349 to $16,384 for Liz Johnson. Labor Commissioner Mark Butler reported $239,082 compared to $46,455 for Robbin Shipp.

The one exception to this expected GOP sweep is the race for state school superintendent, where there is no incumbent running.

In this campaign, the Democratic nominee (Valarie Wilson) has been able to raise a little more money than the Republican candidate (Richard Woods). The most recent polling also indicates a very competitive race between Woods and Wilson.

While the media hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been covering these races to any great extent, they could have an impact beyond this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s election. At least three of the Republican incumbentsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Cagle,

Olens and Kempâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;are interested in running for governor in 2018. Of that trio, Cagle has done the best job of traveling under the radar. He hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done much to attract the mediaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attention, but he also has avoided controversies that might reflect negatively on him.

With Olens and Kemp, it has been a different story. Olensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; office was sanctioned by Fulton County Judge Ural Glanville and fined $10,000 because his attorneys did not turn over documents that should have been disclosed in a whistleblower lawsuit against the state ethics commission. Olensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lawyers lost that lawsuit and the state eventually paid out more than $3 million to four former ethics commission staffers to settle the litigation. If Olens runs for governor, you can bet his primary opponents will remind voters of the judgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s allegations and the $3 million in taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; money.

Kemp stirred up a controversy when he accused a voter registration group founded by one of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top black officeholders, House Minority Leader Stacey Abrams (D-Atlanta), of engaging in fraudulent voter registration activities. Abramsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; group turned in more than 85,000 voter registration forms and 33 of the applications appear to have been forged or erroneously filled out.

Kemp was correct to have his office investigate the suspicious forms, but he could have been a little more temperate in his public remarks. Officials from Kempâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office later acknowledged they had found no evidence Abrams had intentionally tried to violate state election laws.

Cagle, Olens and Kemp should win their reelection races, but compare the vote totals each of them receives. The one who gets the most votes could become the frontrunner in the Republican primary in the 2018 governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race. These are obscure election campaigns, but take the time to check them out.

The Ebola Scare WUGA the

What You Need to Know

D

sustained outbreak in the United States just isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t possible, even as the situation in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia is dire. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why.

The difference is primarily due to resourceavailability and infrastructure, but to understand this, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s useful to have some background on the disease itself. Ebola is caused by a virus, like a cold or the flu, but unlike these, it canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be passed through the air by a cough or a sneeze. The isolation wards and the infamous suit-like protective covering of health staff are used not because this virus spreads more easily than most, but because it is so often fatal. Ebola transmission requires direct contact with infected peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bodily fluids, through cuts on the skin or mucous membranes, and even then only after they start showing symptoms.

A person who has died of Ebola is still highly infectious and must be handled carefully. West African burial practices that involve bathing or touching deceased relatives have been identified as likely amplifiers in the current outbreak.

As with other viruses, treatment with antibiotics is worse than useless. No antiviral drugs have been found to be effective, and no vaccine exists at this point, either, although multiple possibilities are in the works. It will be several months at best, however, before any of these checks out for safety and effectiveness.

The best treatment for Ebola currently consists of keeping a patient hydrated, making sure his or her oxygen levels and blood pressure stay normal, and treating other infections as they come. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention suggest that this can significantly improve a patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chance of pulling through, if started early enough. This type of treatment takes prompt medical attention, however, at a health care facility with trained personnel who have access to proper equipment and supplies. All of these elements are in ready supply throughout the U.S. but are much scarcer in the countries where Ebola is currently out of control.

Take doctors, for instance. The most recent estimates from the Word Bank put the doctor-

onâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry about Ebola in the U.S. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re almost definitely not going to catch it, but hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why you should care anyway.

There is no getting around the fact: The Ebola virus is bad news. The current outbreak in West Africa is several times larger than any that has occurred before, and it is anticipated to get worse before it gets better. This event is having a very real and very devastating impact on hundreds of thousands of people, with wide-ranging and likely long-term social and economic consequences. Schools are closed. People are dying from preventable and routine illnesses, because the health centers are overwhelmed and overflowing.

Fear, stigma and misinformation are rampant, leading to the ill hiding out at home and passing Ebola to family members. Attacks, sometimes fatal, disrupt health care teams, and there are recent reports of an underground demand for survivorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; blood. (That blood is reportedly being used for illicit transfusions, and while unproven as a treatment or prevention against Ebola, this is an excellent way to spread blood-borne pathogens like hepatitis or HIV.) Here in the States, we are far removed from the everyday realities of this crisis, and anxiety is spreading much more quickly than germs. Regionally, news of Emory University Hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taking in multiple Ebola cases was met with alarm and dismay. Even locally, concern and interest in Ebola is apparent, as demonstrated by the 300-odd attendees who turned out to UGAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Health Sciences Campus on Sept. 25 to attend an open forum on the disease jointly hosted by UGA and Athens Regional Medical Center.

This anxiety is primed to get worse, given news of the recent case in Texasâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the first not knowingly and purposefully imported into this country. However, a case (or few) in Texas does not make an outbreak, and while Ebola is certainly a serious and even alarming disease, that particular individual (and any of the few people he may have infected) are going to receive prompt and excellent care, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be the end of this particular scare. A

Classic

to-patient ratio at 2.5 per 1,000 people in the United States. For reference, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an average of 300 doctors for a population the size of Athens. These same estimates suggest 0.014 doctors per 1,000 people in Liberia.

At a population of around 4.3 million (about half the size of New York City), that is a grand total of 60 doctors to serve the entire country.

That is just one example, and a simplified one, but the fact is that we have ample resources to treat patients quickly and to contain any spread no matter where it happens in this country. Despite significant and continued international support, those in West Africa do not, and while this outbreak wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t last forever, containing it is going to be a long and difficult process.

Ebola doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t spell doom for our country, or really even pose a threat as the next pandemic. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important, though, is that a disease like it may be a bigger cause for concern, and those are going to keep coming. Ebola, like many diseases that have made headlines in recent yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;SARS, â&#x20AC;&#x153;swineâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;birdâ&#x20AC;? flusâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t originate in humans, but in wild-animal populations. As the human population continues to grow, our cities are going to keep growing, and our livestock and agricultural requirements, too. This expansion is going to put us into increased contact with wildlife, spreading our diseases to them even as we catch theirs.

Ebola has already been linked to deforestation. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guess as to when and where a new outbreak might occur, but given that the other side of the world is just a plane ride away, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clear that something that starts in one part of the globe may not stay there.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lose sleep over it, though. Experts around the world and in many different professions are already on guard around the clock to identify any diseases that might pose a threat and stop them before they stop you.

Feeding a dog doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be a big stressor for homeless owners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I need food, she gets food,â&#x20AC;? Holland says.

Sometimes he buys it, and sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s given to him by friends or family. He carries water from the shelter back to their hut.

Driscoll and Charlie often share what they catch when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hiking. Charlie brings back groundhogs, chipmunks Mitchell Hollandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Australian cattle dog, Blueberry, waits for Holland to emerge from the hut where they live. and rabbits for the two.

When you have to make a commitment like that to another being every day, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a driving force that can motivate an individual to keep moving, even when the thought alone is exhausting.

For the Gardeners, who are currently working on returning to Dahlonega and getting an apartment there, Malika has definitely filled that role. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a little kid,â&#x20AC;? says David. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She sleeps right between me and her.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also had three strokes, and he says that Malika helps keep his stress levels down.

Ed Moore, current director of Bigger Vision, says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sometimes difficult to watch homeless folks work so hard just to get into the shelter at night during the winter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you worked as hard to get out of our shelter as you do to get into David Driscoll and his dog, Charlie, once made enough money to pay for dinner by howling it, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be doing yourself a big favor,â&#x20AC;?

Legendary flatpicker Norman Blake headlines the festival Saturday.

Celebrating 30 Years of Music and Family Fun F

or 30 years, the Athens Folk Music and Dance Society has paid homage to the arts, crafts and music of the area’s roots. To mark the three-decade anniversary of the North Georgia Folk Festival, they’re bringing back performers from previous festivals and highlighting headliner Norman Blake. “[Blake is] one of the heroes of acoustic music, and we’re thrilled to have a performer of his stature this year,” says Tommy Jordan, the festival’s director and associate director of the University of Georgia’s Center for Geospatial Research.

“This festival is the only show he’s playing this year. He doesn’t tour anymore, so this is a huge honor.”

Blake emerged on the acoustic scene in 1972 with an album called Home in Sulphur Springs, written about his hometown in north Georgia. The LP paved the way to world tours with his wife Nancy, guests spots at the Grand Ole Opry, appearances on “Prairie Home Companion” and multiple Grammy nominations in the 1990s.

Blake’s resume is impressive: He has played with Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan—appearing on that songwriter’s Nashville Skyline album—and Joan Baez. The movie O Brother, Where Art Thou? featured Blake’s guitar work on the songs “You Are My Sunshine” and the instrumental version of “Man of Constant Sorrow.” Norman and Nancy also played on the Cold Mountain and Walk the Line soundtracks. In addition, Nancy, backed by her husband and Gillian Welch, played and appeared in the Coen brothers’ latest film, Inside Llewyn Davis.

In August, Norman Blake joined Kris Kristofferson, Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle and Welch for a Cash tribute, titled Look Again to the Wind: Johnny Cash’s Bitter Tears Revisited. Blake is the only performer on the recording who also recorded on Cash’s original release 50 years ago. Norman and Nancy also joined more than 30 artists to create Divided & United: The Songs of the Civil War, released by ATO Records.

Blake’s appearance at the Folk Festival began as something of a lark, says Jordan. “While driving back from Savannah one day, a group of us were brainstorming and thought of Blake for the festival’s 30th anniversary—but didn’t think he’d play,” he says. “We called up his agent, and he said he would. Now we’ve got people from New York and South Carolina and all over coming, because he’ll be here.”

At the festival, Blake joins a lineup of multigenerational players covering bluegrass, blues, Irish ballads and Cajun

tunes, among other styles. The day will start with children’s activities and storyteller Pat Shields, followed by a children’s contra dance at noon. Then, traditional ballad singers Mary Lomax and Bonnie Loggins will share songs they learned from their father, followed by The Skillet Lickers and the Stone Mountain Wobblers.

“We all learn from the people who came before us,” Jordan says. “Every song is a derivative from something we’ve heard.

If we ignore those roots, that’s really our loss.”

The 30 artist vendors also represent a broad range of talent, with blacksmiths, basket weavers, candle makers, potters, knitters and quilters on hand to demonstrate their skills. All crafts will be handmade. “These demonstrations show how we all can work with our hands and create art without tools like Photoshop,” Jordan says. “Whether it’s a basket, broom or pot, it’s artistic and beautiful—but also functional.”

The Athens Folk Music and Dance Society received a grant from the Georgia Council for the Arts to help fund this year’s event. The council’s grants aren’t typically available for music events, so the award was particularly special, Jordan says.

To further promote the 30th anniversary of the event, the society is hosting additional events leading up to the festival.

The Folk Society Band performed on WUGA last Friday and at the Bishop Park farmers market on Saturday. This week, several groups will play shows each night at The World Famous and Two Story Coffee in Five Points. (See the Calendar for listings.)

Summing up the Folk Festival and its longevity, Jordan is blunt. “We should know and understand our traditions and history,” he says. “Every year is a great event with family-friendly activities and high quality music, and 30 years is a great marker.”

Superchunk at 25 Love, Hate and Indie Rock Reality

Listen Without Prejudice: It’s been a yearand-a-half since Juna released any new music, so it’s fitting that the opening track on its new album, On Courage, is titled “On Patience.”

Unfortunately, the term “emo” has gone through so many permutations that to use it in reference to Juna is both a disservice to modern audiences and a terribly blurry, backward-looking ideal that sonically positions the band squarely in the mid-1990s. Same thing with “post-rock.”

So, let’s just say that Juna excels at composing deliberate, forceful music that, even when it’s slow and quiet, is rarely actuFour Eyes ally tender. Rather, it teeters between a cloak of bluster and broken shards of brittleness. Of course, for all my dismissal of the term “emo,” it really doesn’t get much more emo than that.

Wax and Wane: The new album by Athens’ synth-pop hope, Wild of Night, Arte Aerosol, came out last week. Stream-’n’-download via wildofnight.bandcamp.com. A limited cassette version of 50 will ship sometime this month, so drop a line to wildofnight@gmail. com to grab one. I’ve always enjoyed Wild of Night as a live band, in which setting the keyboards are much too percussive to be characterized as “ethereal.” Recorded, however, Elysia Empyre’s undeniably Elizabeth Fraser (Cocteau Twins)-influenced vocals seem to fight for breath with this heavy-handed style of playing. Hats off to the group, though, for having an actual, proper album introductory track (“Awakening”) that is truly composed as opposed to the bits and bobs of noise so may artists use to fill space. Give a listen.

Hello, America: Arriving straight out of the “oh, come on” file is the Kickstarter campaign to revive the Macon-based “Georgia Jam Session,” which aired for exactly one year (1995) on public access cable TV. While the show did gain a reasonable regional audience between Macon and Savannah in those days before the Internet as we currently experience it, the producers are seeking a whopping $25,000 for its reboot. Those funds are earmarked for the archiving of the 1995 episodes and the production of three new ones. As of this writing, founders Andrew Ikner and Mark

Storey have raised a little over $200. Part of the problem is they spend their Kickstarter video extolling groups from 20 years ago that were, in all honesty, mostly bar-rock bands of marginal importance and zero lasting impression. Now, of course, Stuck Mojo and The Healers had solid audiences, and surely the producers must count these as feathers in their cap. But I promise you 1,000 percent that not one viewer’s life was enriched by putting Knucklehead, The Roadcrew, Gypsy Train or White Buffalo on television. If you disagree, then visit facebook.com/GJStv. Subject Matter: The folks behind Noun Factory are taking over Go Bar Saturday, Oct. 11 and have a host of cool stuff happening.

Featured musical performers include Jacob Morris, Little Bothers, Powerkompany, Ginko, Oak House, Acapoco and k i d s.

Spoken-word performers include Rob White, Patrick Joseph Conley, Showyn Al-Gorjus Buddha Walton, and Juliet Easton. There will also be a short film

Three for Three: Erin Lovett, the heart and brains behind Four Eyes, has released three Halloween-themed EPs on a single cassette tape. The tape compiles Creepy (2012) and Little Creeps (2013) with her newest EP, Creep On, which was just released last week. The tapes are limited to an edition of 25, are all hand-numbered by Lovett and come courtesy of Teen Sleuth Cassettes.

Why should you bother? Because Four Eyes is one of those Athens-based projects that has continually improved in both depth of subject and quality of composition in a town where so many projects remain stagnant. Also, it’s really more accurate to describe these folky gems as “autumn-themed,” because they’re not stupid or a novelty, and the overwhelming majority of Halloween-themed junk is both.

Colin meets the lovely Chloé (Audrey Tautou), who is equally awkward and charming, and the two fall in love, court each other and then…

As their relationship deepens, so does the movie, though only up to a point. Gondry is unfortunately always more fascinated with the visual surface of the story than with the deeper emotional chords. His great cinematic gifts are his playfulness and his knack for conjuring magical, lo-fi special effects that are as compelling as anything seen in a bloated, big-budget extravaganza. Gondry is a mix of cinema pioneer Georges Méliès and the great fantasist Jean Cocteau, and in conveying poetry visually he is without equal in modern cinema. Unfortunately, Mood Indigo gets buried in the deeper layers. When tragedy strikes the relationship, it is symbolically touching yet feels cosmetic. Darkness unfurls, though we aren’t consumed by it as we should be.

Gondry is still playing with toys, when he should be breaking our hearts. [Derek Hill] ANNABELLE (R) Judging from its trailer, this spinoff of The Conjuring, not directed by James Wan, will underwhelm, like many of its genre peers. Instead, Annabelle exceeds its meager expectations. A young couple (the unrecognizable, unmemorable Ward Horton and Annabelle Willis) are terrorized by some Manson wannabes, but surviving the encounter matters little when the spirit of one of the killers possesses the expectant mother’s new doll. The movie does little out of the ordinary, but it does the ordinary effectively.

Despite a trailer that threatens to give away all the scares, Annabelle produces some shivers, which is more than can be said for its competitors. Maybe I’m being generous because it’s October, but Netflix is more than flush with bad horror. Annabelle may not be a new classic (see 2007’s Trick ‘r Treat for the

Mizzou Brews This weekend, the Bulldogs travel to Columbia, MO to play yet another set of Tigers. The trip to Faurot Field in 2012 was particularly memorable, as the Jarvis Jones Show demonstrated the value of “Old Man Football” directly to then-Missouri quarterback James Franklin’s face, sacking him twice and forcing two fumbles en route to a Georgia victory. This year’s matchup should be a good one, and seeing as how Missouri is both the ancestral home of the King of Macrobrews and a thriving craft beer scene, it’s a good time to talk about Mizzou brews, some of which can be found in Athens.

Flat Branch Pub & Brewing is Columbia’s first brewery since 1841 and has an absolutely massive list of house brews, including two different bitters, three different pale ales, a multitude of IPAs, two different chili beers, fruit beer and a number of special seasonal releases. It also has an extensive selection Travis Swicegood / Flickr

Boulevard Brewing Company of scotch and bourbon, for those of you who prefer your alcohol distilled. The brewery is located in an old, renovated warehouse in downtown and looks to be a great place to snag some well-made brews before watching some gridiron action.

Logboat Brewing Company hasn’t been around as long as Flat Branch and offers four-year round products: Lookout Pale Ale, a 5.5% ABV brew dry-hopped with Cascade hops; Shiphead, a 5.2% ABV wheat beer crafted with Peruvian ginger root, coriander and lemon peel; Snapper, a 7.1% ABV India Pale Ale promising notes of peach, pear and pine; and Mamoot, an English mild ale— think brown ale, but milder and less alcoholic.

Mamoot is 3.6% ABV, making it an interesting local option for tailgating before Saturday’s game.

Founded in 2009, Broadway Brewery currently lists 11 different drinking options, including the Backyard B.B.Q.P.A., Cherry Saison and Double Rye IPA, among others.

Broadway Brewery also offers food prepared from local farms, much like the old Farm 255 here in Athens. The brewery owners operate two of the farms themselves. Broadway Brewery looks to be a good option for maintaining your prized locavore status while on a football voyage.

Of course, any article about Missouri beer would be incomplete without mentioning the

two largest breweries in the Show Me State: Anheuser-Busch of St. Louis, champions of Bud Light, and Boulevard Brewing Company, operating out of Kansas City. Together, the two breweries represent the dichotomy between Big Beer and craft.

The massive global beverage conglomerate Anheuser-Busch InBev controls a staggeringly large amount of the world beer market: 25 percent of all beer sold in the world is produced

by Anheuser-Busch InBev in some capacity.

In no particular order, here are are a few of the brands that are owned by the people who own America’s largest brewery: Stella Artois, Budweiser, Corona, Modelo, Victoria, Bass, Beck’s, Labatt, Hoegaarden, Leffe, Lowenbrau, Franziskaner, Goose Island, St. Pauli Girl, Spaten, Bohemia, Boddington’s and a frightening Russian brand known only as BagBier.

The sheer amount of beer controlled by this company is remarkable, albeit not as remarkable as the advertising that claims that Bud Light is #MadeInAmerica, while ignoring the fact that it is #OwnedByBelgians— Anheuser-Busch’s corporate headquarters aren’t in Missouri. That honor belongs to the city of Leuven, Belgium.

Founded in the late 1980s, Boulevard Brewing Company is Missouri’s second largest brewery, capable of churning out 600,000 barrels of beer annually. Their Smokestack Series is quite good; my personal favorite is Tank 7, an 8.5% ABV saison named after an unruly fermenting tank.

The Doublewide IPA is delicious—aggressively hopped but not overpowering. The Saison-Brett is light in color but heavy in flavor, brewed with Brettanomyces yeast to dial up some wild yeast funk—think tart, like a cider.

Not every Boulevard beer is an esoteric, single-bottle serving. They also offer several year-round six-pack brews. 80-Acre Hoppy Wheat Beer is exactly what it sounds like: an extra dose of hops adds extra flavor to their delightful wheat. KC Pils is a crisp and refreshing pilsner, and the Bully! Porter is a nice darker option for malt fiends.

Boulevard has been wildly successful in its 25 years of operation, earning multiple awards and medals from beer festivals. The success of the company brought interest from Duvel Moortgat, a Flemish brewery known for producing the strong golden ale Duvel. In 2013 Duvel Moortgat purchased Boulevard Brewing Company.

While no longer financially independent, the brewers at Boulevard still retain control over what they create. John McDonald, Boulevard’s founder, wrote last October: “[Duvel] bring to us an unparalleled depth of experience, strong resources and an unwavering devotion to quality.” The purchase of an American craft brewery by a world-renowned Belgian brewery represents how far respect for American brewing has come since the craft movement began in the 1970s.

Live Through This Tig Notaro, Healthy and Happier Than Ever In late 2012, comedian Tig Notaro released a recording of a stand-up set, titled Live (as in “exist”), through Louis C.K.’s website for $5. In just over half an hour, Notaro chronicled her recent breast cancer diagnosis, the death of her mother and a particularly painful, poorly timed breakup.

It was hilarious. The way Notaro so deftly navigated horrible, life-changing tragedy was mesmerizing, inspiring and funny as hell.

Within 24 hours, Live was being heralded as an instant classic.

After the critical success of Live—not to mention a double mastectomy—Notaro went on to write and occasionally perform on the first season of Comedy Central’s “Inside Amy Schumer,” all while hosting the popular “Professor Blastoff” science and comedy podcast and continuing to perform stand-up. Now, in the middle of a substantial and daunting tour schedule, Notaro seems happier than ever.

“While I have still had to deal with the fallout from those difficult four months, my life is in pretty remarkable shape,” she says.

“I have so much to be thankful for. So much of my new hour is me approaching comedy the same exact way I did before my life fell apart—only now I’m enjoying sharing more personal stories. It’s the most excited I’ve been about my material in the 17 years I’ve been doing this.”

The extremely intimate nature of Live was one of the many keys to its success. As Notaro moves forward into new material, there is the question whether she is at all interested in continuing that sense of openness now that she is in remission.

“I have always approached my comedy and writing from a place of wanting to do what is authentic to me as a person,” she says. “I have tried to do material and touch on subjects and tell stories that excited me. That set at Largo happened to be my reality at that time.”

Of her current routine, she says, “The topics on this tour vary; I touch on everything from a bombing at a comedy club in Vegas, to stories about me and my friend searching for Santa Claus, to even more personal events. There’s also plenty of plain and simple ridiculousness.”

While stand-up has always been Notaro’s primary outlet, she also has a long list of TV appearances under her belt, including bit

parts on “The Office,” “Community” and “Bob’s Burgers,” as well as a larger turn on “The Sarah Silverman Program.” More recently, she landed a small role in the critically lauded Amazon show “Transparent,” which stars Jeffrey Tambor as a transgender woman.

“The creator, Jill Soloway, is someone who has been a friend of mine for a little while, so I had the luxury of knowing her in the casting process,” Notaro says. “My part is very small, but it was a great experience. I am so incredibly excited to see this show; I truly think it’s going to change people in the very best way. “ Notaro has also begun appearing in films, such as the Elizabeth Banks rom-com Walk of Shame and Lake Bell’s excellent directorial debut, In a World. Later this fall, she will star opposite Ryan Phillippe in the kidnapping thriller Catch Hell.

A feature-length documentary about Notaro’s life shortly after her diagnosis (tentatively titled Tig) is currently set for an early 2015 release. Notaro is cautiously excited for its release. “[The film] is about my life after everything around me fell apart… It feels a little scary to open my life up in this manner, but that is what excites me so much about the project.”

And one thing is clear: As Notaro enters a new era in her career, the lessons learned during that period in 2012 endure.

“During that difficult stretch, there were certainly days and moments where I could not find humor in anything,” she says. “I am sure for so many out there going through a difficult time in their life, finding humor in it all can be incredibly challenging. I think the knee-jerk reaction when facing difficulty is to try and fight it, but I think when you learn to embrace it—and humor is one of just a myriad of ways one can do that—then it feels like you have a greater chance at dealing with whatever it is you are trying to get through.”

Adrina Richard, a firstgeneration American born of survivors of the Armenian Genocide, hand builds stamped and textured vessels from white stoneware and porcelain that are both contemporary and architecturally complex.

Hung Nguyen, who moved from his native Vietnam to Georgia in 1981 as a refugee, has been creating exceptional glass sculptures for over 27 years. Inspired by his upbringing in rural Jamaica, the drawings and paintings of Errol Tomlinson depict scenes of village life recollected from childhood. Swedish native Mona Waterhouse transforms paper made from plants, pigment and wax into delicate, podlike sculptures. The exhibition also includes nature photography by Richard Levy and David Warren Bell, ceramic works and functional furniture by Kathi Earles-Ross, delicate wood turned and pyroengraved objects by Michael and Cynthia Gibson, ceramic sculptures by Shadow May and Michael Schmidt, and colorful marbled paper by Marcia Watt.

Two artist demonstrations and gallery talks will be held on Saturday, Oct. 11. At 10 a.m.

Richard will demonstrate ceramic stamping techniques, and at 1 p.m. Nguyen will share glass sculpture techniques. l

Hung Nguyen pop-rock trio Acapoco; and k i d s, the noisepop/psych-rock brainchild of K. Jared Collins.

Outdoors, a lineup of readings, spoken word and film features Rob White and Juliet Easton of the Athens Writers Association, Patrick Joseph Conley of Word of Mouth, Showyn Al-Gorjus Buddha Walton of Kiss My Athens and an experimental short film by Benjamin Roberds and Jordan St. Martin-Reyes of Dominar, Ltd. For a darkroom-style gallery installation at Fire Hall No. 2, Eddie Boswell and Margaret Schreiber enlarged 20 or so photo strips taken at the busterbooth.com photo booth at Max Canada and distributed them to local artists to add coloring, graffiti and other enhancements.

The duo will additionally project a live broadcast of the Athens Public Access Instagram photo stream. Once Instagram users have added Athens as their location or used the hashtag #athnow on their crawl photos, the server will add the images to a live slideshow accompanied by local music that has been uploaded to athenspublic.com.

Walter Martin

Now Serving

SUNDAY BRUNCH!

Normaltown Hall · 8 p.m. · $15 Former Walkmen bassist Walter Martin is currently touring behind We’re All Young Together, his debut solo effort. The record, full of shiny, sunny folk-pop tunes that lope winkingly along, has been billed by many—including Martin, a father of two young kids—as a “children’s album,” but the LP has found just as many fans among the grown-up set. It’s clear these whimsical songs were written from a seasoned, real-life perspective; songs like the wistful Karen O duet “Sing to Me” are vaguely melancholy, even as they sweetly sell all-ages listeners on the concept of everlasting love. Martin’s seated show at Normaltown Hall should prove warm and memorable.

Tatsuya Nakatani, Grant Evans, The 19th Brood, Aprotag, KUSA87

Go Bar · 9 p.m.

Japanese-born, New Yorkbased percussionist Tatsuya Nakatani is known as a star of the NYC improv scene, having collaborated with names like Mary Halvorson, Peter Brotzmann and William Parker.

Using a rather simple and wholly organic setup, Nakatani finds surprising creative commonalities between noise music and traditional Japanese folk, all the while incorporating elements of jazz and other American staples. Wednesday’s show at Go Bar also features an exciting lineup of local experimental talent, including doomy sound artist Grant Evans, guitar-based noise duo The 19th Brood, solo drone outfit Aprotag and performance art collective KUSA87. [GV] ART | Friday, Oct. 10

“Delicate Flowers” & “Georgia Small Works” Opening Reception

Oconee Cultural Arts Center · 6–8 p.m. · FREE! After winning “Best in Show” at OCAF’s “Southworks” exhibition last year, local medical illustrator turned painter Manda McKay was offered a solo show as part of the prize package. “Delicate Flowers” includes still life oil paintings of natural objects—fruit, flowers, feathers, shells, bones—arranged into simple yet bold, suggestive new forms. Influenced by Banksy and Georgia O’Keeffe, her compositions are equal parts ferocity and fragility, conveying ideas about femininity, sexuality and humanitarian issues through satire and provocative placement. The annual “Georgia Small Works” exhibit includes hundreds of tiny pieces in every medium, both 2-D and 3-D, that are all 14”x14”x14” or smaller. Juried by Beth Sale, the director

of art galleries for the University of North Georgia, the show includes works by both established and undiscovered Georgians.

Both exhibits will be on display through Friday, Nov. 14. [Jessica Smith] MUSIC | Friday, Oct. 10

Feart, The Shut Ups, Secret Europeans

Caledonia Lounge · 9 p.m. · $5 (21+), $7 (18–20) Those only familiar with local musician Mandy Branch through her work with hardhitting rockers Motherfucker will no doubt be taken aback by Secret Europeans, her new, stripped-down, piano-based project.

According to Branch, Secret Europeans arose as a way to cope with the death of her father last year, and both music and lyrics have an appropriately elegiac quality. But beauty and hope also nestle in tender, mournful tunes like “Go About Your

Mandy Branch Business,” the first released single from Secret Europeans’ upcoming debut album, Love Don’t Stop. The record, out soon on Two Sheds Music, reportedly features contributions from scene fixtures Matt Hudgins, Gene Woolfolk, SJ Ursrey and many others. [GV] Lectures & Lit | Tuesday, Oct. 14

Richard Stallman

UGA Chapel · 8 p.m. · FREE! Maverick programmer and activist Richard Stallman will speak in the UGA Chapel at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 14.

Stallman campaigns for “free” software to be distributed with the liberty to “use, study, distribute and modify that software.”

He also resists the general trend for everything to be known about us all through data banks compiled from our online activities. Thus, Stallman is opposed to the modern “surveillance state” and consistently speaks out for the right to privacy.

His lecture, geared for general audiences, is entitled, “Should We Have More Surveillance than the USSR?” Stallman holds degrees from Harvard and MIT and has been the recipient of a MacArthur “genius” award, among others. He has come to be identified not only with advocacy of the unrestricted development of software but also of resistance to government and corporate prying into citizens’ lives. [Pete McCommons]

THE SOIL & THE SUN THURSday, OCTOBER 9

Advice for Life’s Persistent Questions Tears I work in a large professional setting in Athens. There are numerous divisions within my organization and hundreds of employees, but I work in a smaller group within the organization. I have four employees under me, and, while we are friendly, I am definitely their boss.

With three of these employees, all is fine. With the fourth, things are usually fine. However, this fourth employee responds to the slightest criticism with tears. Sometimes it’s not even criticism, just a small correction, or if she perceives I’m upset with her, she’ll tear up. When this happens, I always end up reassuring her that she’s a good employee and doing a good job but that I just need her to do this one thing differently. She usually does whatever I ask, but I’m getting tired of going through the process of talking her down every time she gets upset. No one else in the office reacts this way when I ask them to redo or fix something, and I don’t think I’m being harsh with her. Possibly adding to the tenseness of this situation is the fact that I’m a man in my 50s, and she is a relatively young (maybe late 20s) woman. Is there any way to talk to her so she doesn’t end up crying?

Uncomfortable Boss

when all I can offer is the occasional fill-up and, when I’m a little flush, some extra cash toward insurance or repairs, which he never asks for. I’ve been chided by bosses who’ve seen me getting out of a cab at work, insisting that I call them for a ride instead. I help people as often as I can, and I think I’m someone my friends want to take care of, help and support in return. But it’s hard not to see the frequency with which I have to ask for help as an outsourcing to other people of the inconvenience of being car-less (which, to be fair, is a consequence of some poor choices I made a few years ago). I think I need a little help reframing what it means to ask for help, especially the smallish and sustained kind, so I can let my people in and give myself a break.

Any thoughts?

It’s more than OK to ask people for rides frequently while you’re trying to get your car situation sorted out. Be considerate of other people’s schedules and try to ask different people, so you’re not always relying on one person.
