The UT stadium couldhave been expanded without jeopardizing the century-oldcypresses along the creek. Unfortunately,the university felt that it also needed a four-laneroad (San Jacinto Boulevard) running through campus.Since there wasn’t room enough for trees,four lanes, and the stadium expansion (the effortsof us “rioters” notwithstanding), the trees were cutdown. Ironically, within a couple of years, universityadministrators realized that it was colossallystupid to have four lanes running through campus,so they reduced San Jacinto to two lanes withrestricted access. Needless to say, that delayedinsight came too late to save the cypresses.Philip RussellIs ammo a CoNstItutIoNal rIght?“PAGE TWO” is taking a break.Dear Editor,I have been holding my breath for more thana year, and no one has said it. Ammo! I am aVietnam era vet – one of the very first women toqualify with the M60 machine gun with a wet benchchemistry background. Do you know the nonexistentregulation on ammunition in Texas? Yeah,that cold dead hand is unfortunately true – butammo, is that a constitutional right? I freely cannotpurchase pseudoephed, but a handful of hollowpoints? No problem. A decade or so ago, a RoundRock middle school student via the Web successfullycreated a PVC firearm complete with ammo.The thing is, he misaimed and hit himself. If onlythese fools had to make their own, we might havea 50-50 chance they would blow themselves up.Sincerely.Betsy McCutcheonWhat about ‘the sImpsoNs’?Dear Editor,In regards to your game app reviews: Howcould you leave out The Simpsons: Tapped Out?I know many of us are building Springfield upevery day. Please check it out and tell us whatyou think. Thanks for your time.Lucy GunterYou are Not south austINDear Editor,Kevin Martin, people like you are the realproblem South Lamar faces [“Postmarks,”Jan. 11]. A resident for less than a decadeand you think you know what is best for thearea’s soul? That McDonald’s you complainabout is there for a reason. It, along with severalother fast-food eateries on Lamar – andrecently lost longtime businesses, such asRay Hennig’s Heart of Texas Music and SouthAustin Machine Shop – have served the communitywell with services and employment fora long time, much more than Barley Swinewill. It’s a shame longtime residents and businessesare being displaced by the likes ofyou, trying so hard to be the real Austin andtotally missing the mark. Hell, not even seeingthe mark.You are not South Austin, only a continuationof the plague spreading from Downtown.South Austin is a way of life and an attitudethe likes of you will never understand. Thatarea of Lamar is south of the river, but nolonger South Austin. Just like SoCo, the soulwas removed when the longtime residentsand businesses were displaced to make wayfor the likes of you. Now go grab a shake andsome fries at McD’s and watch the mini golfersnext door and enjoy what you have before it isall gone.Donnie HunterstepheN moser’s Come a loNg WaYDear Mr. Moser,When I first moved to Austin in 1997 andstarted reading the Chronicle, I was confused anddisappointed by your “After a Fashion” column.It just seemed to be a society page with a lot ofname-dropping that had absolutely nothing to dowith fashion.I hope this is not too strange.Since your diagnosis, after the dramatic copingmechanisms, your columns fascinate me.They have improved dramatically. Not only haveyou actually written about fashion, but you havereturned to design, yourself.You are showing a strength of spirit in the faceof a terrible illness within your words. And, in myopinion, all that you have dealt with has madeyou more eloquent.Just to let you know where I’m coming from – Iwrite, myself. Never professionally, but I do lovewriting. I’m the son of an English teacher.I have dabbled in fashion design (a long timeago), have sold men’s clothing, was a hairdresserfor 10 years, and am currently on my way tobegin designing some very strange jewelry. Thepoint of all that is – to someone like me, you arean inspiration. I’m even thinking about learningto sew now. (The stuff I did before was alteringexisting garments.) Anyway, just wanted to showsome luvs. Keep your fur-lined fighting gloves on,and beat the shit outta this cancer.You’ve come a long way, baby.And consider this for your own inspiration:Most people with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease)die within seven years of diagnosis. StephenHawking has had it for decades – he is thelongest-living known ALS patient, and one of thesharpest minds the scientific world has known.So keep on rockin’.From a former nonfan who is now an avid one,have a great new year,James Richard WeedmanPostmarks online uPdated daily austinchronicle.com/postmarks8 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o mTHE HARDY LAW OFFICEOur PracticeAreas Include:• DIVORCE • CHILD SUPPORT • CUSTODY• ORDER ENFORCEMENT OR MODIFICATION• WILLS • PROBATE • POWERS OF ATTORNEY512-348-7320CALL FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT TODAY!FREEINITIAL CONSULTATION• GUARDIANSHIP • ADOPTIONS• CIVIL LITIGATION • CREDIT CARD DEFENSE• CPS DEFENSE • PERSONAL INJURYHAROLD@THEHARDYLAWOFFICE.COMTheHardyLawOffice.com

Encour aged andabetted by a creduloustherapist, and then policeinvestigators and prosecutorswho should haveknown better, she triggered afull-scale “satanic ritual abuse”witch hunt that ended in what areeffectively life sentences for the Kellers.The tale is summarized this week inJordan Smith’s “Appeal Filed in Keller DayCare Case,” p.17. Smith laid out the entiresordid tale in “Believing the Children,”March 7, 2009. It was her extraordinaryreporting that not only returned the story topublic attention and an innocence investigation,but also cast serious doubt on theonly element of “physical evidence” – asuperficial examination of the child’s genitalsby a young doctor who told Smith, withgreat regret, he had made a mistake.The history is again laid out at length inthe exhaustive memorandum filedthis week by defense attorneysKeith and Cyn thia Hampton,asking that Fran Keller’sconviction be vacated andan appeal hearing granted.We’ve posted thememorandum online,and it recounts in detailthe original case, investigation,and the astonishingcredulity of parents,police investigators,and public officials at thewidespread notion that“satanic abusers” were everywhereamong us and that many daycare centers had become dens of iniquity.Not only are the Kellers, having nowspent two decades in prison, innocent –none of the alleged crimes ever happened.Fevered FantasiesI write that bluntly, but with bitter resignation.No matter what happens, it’s impos-sible to return to the Kellers their lives. Icertainly hope the appeal is successful, butprosecutors – current Travis County DistrictAttorney Rosemary Lehmberg was incharge of the child abuse unit at the time –are notoriously reluctant to acknowledgemistakes, and even in matters of actualinnocence, the courts are extremely slow toact upon error, often preferring finality tojustice. And some of the people involved,who led small children into a web of absurdfantasies, continue to insist that the Kellersare guilty.Read the accounts. Not only did the children’simaginations deliver on demandreams of adult-provoked fantasies – chainsaws, dismemberments, exhumations,plane rides, burial rituals, dead animals,etc., etc. – that could not have been true, the“investigation” pursued miscellaneousplaces and passers-by, random police officers,coerced confessions, and on and on.QuotEof theWEEkcontinued on p.121 ra d ij o h n a n d e r s o nco n s@ACNewsdeskHeadlines› City Council meets today (Jan. 17) with someleftovers – zoning battles, including the DowntownAustin Hotel brouhaha – and some talkabout affordable housing, Citizens United, and2012’s spike in traffic fatalities.

NEWSpoint austin continued from p.11Corroborating testimony was eagerly providedby a delusional, self-promoting“expert” who went on to make a personalindustry of “satanic abuse” and craziernonsense that persists to this day. Moreover,police investigators withheld fromthe prosecutors exculpatory evidence thatcontradicted their overheated imaginations– that alone, along with the doctor’sretraction, should require the courts toreopen the case.The entire investigation and prosecutionremains a shameful disgrace toAustin, Travis County, the police, and theprosecutors. Lehmberg and the courtsshould do whatever they can to undo thisconviction and provide to Fran Keller, asthe appeal asks plaintively, “other andfuller relief as may be just and proper.”Manufactured PanicThe satanic ritual abuse panic has subsidedsomewhat since it crested in the1980s, although it resurfaces periodically.We’d like to think we’ve gotten over theworst of it. Unfortunately, Austin will notbe able to say that with a good conscienceuntil the Kellers are out of prison.Mob madness is never very far away.Consider the aftermath of the Newtownschool massacre: Even the mildest proposalsfor gun regulation have been met withhysterical backlash from the worst of thegunmongers, undeniably reminiscent ofthe “satanist” craze: frenzied gun-hoardingagainst the coming apocalypse, threatsagainst public officials and others, cries oftreason and impeachment, calls for secessionand armed revolt – even crazed accusationsthat the school massacres weregovernment-sponsored or somehow magicallyinvented altogether.This is not spirited, necessary debateabout disputed public policy. It’s demagogueryof the first order, beginning withthe corporate gun lobbyists at the NationalRifle Association and running on throughour reflexively reactionary Texas politiciansright on down to our local fanaticalfearmonger and snake-oil salesman AlexJones. (Piers Morgan may be a pompousgit, but he had this much right: Jones onCNN “was the best advertisement for guncontrol you could wish for.”) Yet plenty ofcredulous people – credulous and armedpeople – listen to Jones’ rubbish and followhis lead.The Keller case and its nationwide kin,like the current gun hysteria, serve aspainful reminders that irrationality andmob hysteria are never far beneath thesurface of public life. It’s not surprisingthat a child’s misbehavior or a family’sunhappiness might break out into wildfears and accusations. Much more disturbingis that officials charged with publicsafety and the due process of law should beso gullible as to accept the wildest, impossiblefantasies as credible allegations, andshould fall prey to the very madness thatit is their responsibility to prevent.They ought to be ashamed.Follow @PointAustin on Twitter.nSouthlandseven neighborhoods TaKe imagine ausTin on a TesT runLast Saturday morning, more than 130South Austin residents walked through thedoors of the Crockett High School cafeteriato ponder the future of their neighborhood.The turnout on this damp morning mighthave been lighter than what city plannershad anticipated, but the significance of theSaturday confab was not lost on those whoshowed up: The South Austin CombinedNeighborhood Plan is the first such processto be developed under the newImagine Austin Comprehensive Plan, ablueprint for how the city will grow.As such, seven South Austin neighborhoodswill help determine the look and feelof their stomping grounds within the boundariesof Ben White Boulevard and WilliamCannon, and South First Street and WestgateBoulevard.

NEWSAn unusual battle over a proposed hotelcomplex at Eighth and Congress is finallymaking its way to City Council today(Thursday). The city’s development processhas rarely been criticized for its swiftness,but the saga of the “Austin House: TheHotel of Texas” has taken a particularlyleisurely path through the city’s manyboards and commissions. The initial rezoningrequest was made in September 2011,and the case finally arrived at Council forthe last meeting of 2012 (Dec. 13), whendevelopers promptly requested an “indefinitepostponement.” They were informedno such procedural animal exists, and wereinstead granted a holiday reprieve.Developer David Kahn is seeking a zoningchange in order to build a 28-story projectthat promises a 210-room hotel, 110,000square feet of office space, a music venue,restaurant, and retail shops on the groundlevel of the site (currently home to theA rendering ofthe proposedproject forEighth &CongressL a k e / F L a t o a r c h i t e c t sHickory Street restaurant, which supplantedHickory Street Bar & Grill). The projectwill encompass the historic Bosch-Hoggbuilding next door, preserving its facade.With a price tag of about $90 million, Kahnestimates the finished project will bringover $3 million in annual city tax revenue.For someone hoping to build a multimilliondollar project, Kahn does a fairly convincingjob of portraying himself as aneveryman oppressed by forces far morepowerful. In his presentation to the PlanningCommission, he flashed a slide of the monocled,top-hatted “Rich Uncle Pennybags”of Monopoly fame when discussing hisopponents, calling out Downtown real estateheavy-hitters Thomas Properties and TomStacy as the sources of the vocal oppositionfrom the Downtown Austin Alliance.“I really think that it’s all about our officebuilding. If we were not building an officebuilding, One American Center [Sixth &The DowntownAustin Alliance’smock-up of thenorth-facing viewof the Capitol ifthe proposed hotel(depicted as thedark tower leftof the Capitol) isallowed a setbackvarianceHotel Project Sparks Downtown SkirmishCongress] would not be spending money toprotest this,” said Kahn. “It’s all about theirprivate views.” (The site is not in a stateprotectedCapitol View Corridor.)Certainly, it’s unusual for the DAA tooppose Downtown development – indeed,rare to see any of the many large-scale projectsthat pass through City Hall not gain DAAendorsement. What makes this project different?The major bone of contention is the factthat the proposed design would violate the60-foot setback requirements on the westside of Congress (which require buildings tostep back 60 feet from their facades after theinitial 90 feet). Kahn proposes a tiered designthat would step back 15 feet after the first 45feet of facade, then another 15 feet after anadditional 45 feet of elevation.In September 2011, the board of the DAAunanimously agreed to support the zoningchange and the increased floor-to-area ratio(which allows greater height). But theyc o u r t e s y o F D o w n t o w n a u s t i n a L L i a n c eopposed any variance to the setback – astance that has remained firm. The DAAwarns that violating the setback would becatastrophic, because the resulting competitionfor Capitol views would eventuallycreate a narrow canyon from Lady BirdLake to the Capitol Building. They evenhave a rendering that Kahn says is exaggerated“to get everyone real fired up.”The DAA fears are not without foundation.On the east side of Congress, the unofficialsetback practice quickly went to hellafter the 1975 construction of the Bank ofAmerica Tower, which DAA ExecutiveDirector Charles Betts calls “the blackbuilding.” Indeed, the BoA Tower inspiredthe Congress Avenue Overlay, a developmentplan approved unanimously by CityCouncil in 1984. Since then, the overlay andits required setbacks have been observedon the west side of Congress. (The DAAmockup used to illustrate the visually dystopianhorror that awaits Downtown wascreated by mirroring the east side of theavenue onto the west.)Meanwhile, the Downtown Austin NeighborhoodAlliance has endorsed the project,saying that it would activate a key part ofCongress Avenue while preserving thefacade of the historic Bosch-Hogg building.DANA is careful to state that its support ofthe project does not indicate a blanketacceptance of relaxing the Congress AvenueOverlay. Instead, they stress that encroachmentsinto the setback should be evaluatedon a case-by-case basis, in accordance withDANA’s reading of the recently passedDowntown Austin Plan. Kahn points outthat the plan suggests the city considerrelaxing the 60-foot setback, acknowledgingthe impossibility of developing the westside under current standards.City staff agrees with Kahn’s reading thata 60-foot setback is “greater than necessaryto protect the historic character of CongressAvenue” and goes on to suggest that buildingadditions to historic structures beCouncil Notes: Funky IlluminationsCity Council meets today (Thursday), and among the 99items are several worth special notice. Austin Energy inauguratesperformance-based solar energy incentives fornonprofits (Foundation Communities, Goodwill, Items 2-7),described last week by Amy Smith (“Then There’s This,” Jan.10). If the sun keeps shining and the rain don’t fall, there’llbe plenty more where this came from – and all we’ll have todo is figure out how to pay for it.Also in an environmental vein is Council Member ChrisRiley’s proposal (Item 51) for a one-year pilot program waivingpark curfews to allow 24-hour biking and hiking on certaintrails (Butler, Shoal Creek, and Johnson Creek greenbelts).In previous discussions, there was some nervousnessexpressed concerning safety and consequent liability issues– the hope is a pilot will help determine whether such a programcan fit into the in-progress Urban Trails Master Plan.On a symbolic but potentially national level, CM BillSpelman proposes (Item 53, seconded by Tovo andMorrison, and likely to pass by acclamation) formally supportinga constitutional amend ment or other legislation aimed atoverturning the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in CitizensUnited that effectively allowedunlimited corporate (and other)campaign expenditures. Thedraft resolution would ensurethat “money is not speech,”and call on other jurisdictionsto join the effort. Unlimitedcampaign money, argues theresolution, is “drowning out thevoices of ‘We the People’” andendangers democracy.Somewhere between symbolicand eventually actionable are a couple of other proposals.Item 57 (Spelman) asks the city man ag er to figure out whatthe hell went wrong with traffic fatalities in 2012 (afterdeclining for several years, fatal accidents jumped by 44%over 2011) and report back to Council in a few months onwhether anything specific might be done. Item 61 (SherylCole) would pursue whether to return to the voters foraffordable housing bonds – the only bond initiative rejectedin the November election. The proposal is co-sponsored byj o h n a n D e r s o nItem 51 from ChrisRiley proposes a oneyearpilot programallowing 24-hourhiking and bikingon three greenbeltsaround town.Spel man and Riley, but othermembers have expressed skepticismover bringing back soquickly a rejected proposition.The draft resolution rests on theargument that the successful2006 bonds leveraged muchfederal matching money, havebeen exhausted, and could bereissued without raising theproperty tax rate – but that maystill be a hard sell so quicklyafter a public defeat.On top of all that, there areplenty of zoning cases – likelyled by the Downtown Donny brook over the Austin Hotel(Item 79, see “Hotel Project Sparks Downtown Skir mish,”above).

stepped back 15 feet from their facades –which is in line with the hotel proposal.Opponents respond that the overlay remainsin effect as is.As if that isn’t enough to raise sand atCouncil, plans for the hotel include no onsiteparking. Kahn argues that parking iseasy to come by on North Congress at night,including leased spaces in lots and regularstreet parking. Critics find his logic maddening:If the hotel will wake up the area,won’t that mean a parking crunch will soonfollow? Yet with the city already contemplatingthe eradication of parking minimums inthe Central Business District – spurred bythe planning argument, among others, thatsubsidized (“free”) parking discouragespedestrian-oriented development – thismay not be the sticking point it would havebeen just a few months ago. In any case,Kahn maintains that he will find parkingoff-site (he told the Planning Commis sion itwould be “suicidal” to spend $90 mil lion ona project and not provide parking).As the case heads to Council, it’s almostan even score from the boards and commissions,with support from city staff, theDowntown Commission, and Design Commission,and opposition from the PlanningCommission and Historic Landmark Commission.Add a petition signed by some ofAustin’s most powerful citizens, and you getwhat promises to be a discussion much livelierthan the current street life on NorthCongress Avenue. – Elizabeth PaganoLINKS:para5, “large-scale projects”: http://www.austinchronicle.com/news/2005-11-11/309109/para8, “Downtown Austin Plan”: http://www.austinchronicle.com/news/2009-03-20/756261/HEALTH CARE EDUCATIONSTART LEARNING THE SKILLS YOU’LLNEED TO HELP OTHERS AS AMEDICALASSISTANTJob placement assistanceFinancial aid availablefor those who qualifyDay & evening classesavailableCall now or visitLINKS: “Then There’s This,” 1stparagraph:[http://www.austinchronicle.com/www.chcp.edunews/then-theres-this/]800.318.9576OTHER PROGRAMS AVAILABLE:Dental AssistantDiagnostic Medical UltrasoundLimited Medical Radiologic TechnologistPersonal Fitness TrainerONLINE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE!For more information about our graduation rates, the median debt of studentswho completed the program, and other important information, please visit ourwebsite at http://www.chcp.edu/disclosures and www.bls.gov/soc/.6505 Airport Blvd., Suite 102Austin, TX 78752a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m JANUARY 18, 2013 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E 15

VOTED BESTKING CAKE5 YEARS476.0060 • 120 EAST 7THKING CAKE!Mardi Gras Seasonbegins: Jan. 6Mardi Gras: Feb. 12LINK2ND graf, “Dec. 21, 2012”http://www.austinchroni-cle.com/news/2012-12-21/aisd-idea-down-travisheights-up/SingNEWSOne, three, or none: Those are the optionsfor new single-sex schools facing Austin ISD.But with a board vote on the issue coming upJan. 28, there’s little sign of consensus.Many thought the district’s two plans – turningPearce and Garcia into single-sex middleschools serving most of East Austin, and aseparate proposal to open a boys’ academyfunded in part by the Moody Foundation –died after they dropped off December’s votefor the 2013 Annual Academic and FacilitiesRecommendations (see “AISD: IDEA Down,Travis Heights Up,” Dec. 21, 2012). However,Board President Vince Torres had simplypulled them back for further discussion, andAISD board members attheir Dec. 17 meetingBoard Discord on Single-Sex Schoolsj o h n a n D e r s o nhe’s now asking his fellow trustees to considerthem for the 2014-2015 school year.Single-sex advocates point to the success ofthe all-girl Ann Richards School for YoungWomen Leaders. However, there’s a big differencebetween gender-segregating an entireneighborhood and Ann Richards, an application-onlycampus that trustees increasinglyconcede is a magnet school.District 1 Trustee Cheryl Bradley arguesthat sex-segregating Pearce and Garcia will createsafe havens for prepubescent minority kids.At-Large Position 8 Trustee Gina Hinojosa proposeda compromise: Place the Moody boys’school on a District 1 campus, and give neighborhoodkids priority admission. But theMoody Foundation doesn’t want exceptionsto its admissions policy, and Bradley vehementlydoes not want a Moody school in herdistrict, claiming the bad blood over the magnetprogram at Kealing Middle School andthe embedded Liberal Arts and ScienceAcademy at LBJ High proves that suchembedded schools-within-schools do notwork. She said, “You can feel the inferiorityas soon as you walk in.”Torres argues against melding the two proposals,calling them “apples and oranges”that are intended to solve different problems.District 7 Trustee Robert Schneider – nofriend of radical reform – has argued that thelack of a male analog to Ann Richards leavesthe district open to discrimination suits. Torres,who attended the Naval Academy backwhen it was all-male, said the longer the districtwaits, “the case gets stronger and stronger.”But there are two larger questions. First,whether single-sex education has any specialmerit – an idea hotly contended by many educationexperts – and secondly, whether thecommunity wants it. AISD conducted a phonesurvey between Nov. 29 and Dec. 4, and supportfor single-sex schools among District 1families was tepid. Only 45% of neighborhoodfamilies polled supported the concept, andonly 32% said they would consider sendingtheir kids to a single-sex campus. Moreover,56% of African-American respondents said theyactively oppose Brad ley’s plan. District 5Trustee Amber Elenz said that, as it is earlyin the process, there is plenty of opportunityfor AISD to do outreach to improve those numbers.However, while Super intendent MeriaCarstarphen argued that “there is interest,”she warned, “I don’t think there is overwhelmingsupport for the design.” – Richard WhittakerLINKS:“City Council 10-1 districtingprocess” [http://www.austintexas.gov/department/10-one]2nd paragraph: “comments posted”-- [http://trustaustin.org/agrscomments-to-the-auditors-draftinterpretative-guidelines/]10-1, Step One:Finding CommissionersThough it had been scheduled to end last week, just before thatdeadline the city auditor’s office extended the public comment periodon the city’s new City Council 10-1 redistricting process toWednesday, Jan. 16.

Last week, the group sent a nine-page letterto the city auditor’s office, suggesting four changes to the currentinterpretation of the law.Most significantly, the letter calls for the voting requirement toinclude May and Nov em ber elections in tallying whether applicants tothe districting commission have voted in the last three out of five“City of Austin general elections” – charter language that could beconstrued to mean only the May municipal contests. Roger Borgelt,Travis County Republican Party vice chairman and co-chair of the AGRAdvisory Committee, explained, “AGR intended to include those[November] elections. … We want to make sure that the people whovoted for CD 10-1 are getting a chance to participate in the processof drawing district lines.”j o h n a n D e r s o nTwo Austinitescheck out a mapof the city at anOctober rally infavor of 10-1.But will they? In its letter, AGR cites an analysis done by OpinionAnalysts that estimates this change would just about double the poolof qualified applicants (from 35,418 residents to 68,627.) The reportalso shows a potentially troubling lack of diversity in the pool – forexample, a pool of Hispanic voters that is about 10% if only May electionsare counted, and just under 12% if both elections are counted.(The effects of other criteria remain to be seen.)AGR’s letter also calls for the panel of aud itors to ensure that theapplicant pool reflects the diversity of Austin, that party precinctchairs be qualified to serve, and that the three auditors (who willassess the applicants for the CRC) be paid for their services.Mory said that he had seen the letter, and that he was “still consideringsome of the points on there.” He anticipates some changes,but declined to get into particulars during the public comment period.– Elizabeth Pagano16 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m

Appeal Filed in Day Care Abuse CaseAn appeal filed Monday morning inTravis County district court reopens aninfamous chapter in Austin history and setsout to prove, once and for all, that formerOak Hill day care operator Frances Kellerwas wrongfully convicted of sexual assaultand has spent the last 20 years behind barsfor a crime that never happened.Fran Keller was sentenced to 48 years inprison for allegedly sexually abusing a3-year-old girl, Christy Chaviers, who’d beenan infrequent drop-in at the home-based daycare center Keller and her husband Dan ranin 1991. (Dan was also convicted and sentencedto 48 years; this appeal concerns onlyFran Keller’s conviction.) After a day at theKellers in the summer of 1991, Christy toldher mother, Suzanne Stratton, that DannyKeller had spanked her; that allegationquickly morphed into an allegation of sexualabuse. Before long, two other children who’dbeen in care at the Kellers, and whose parentshad become friendly with Christy’smother, also claimed they were abused bythe Kellers. By the fall, Christy’s therapist,Donna David Campbell, concluded thatChristy had been a victim of “ritual abuse.”Indeed, the Kellers were among hundreds ofday care workers across the country who inthe Eighties and early Nineties were accusedof being part of “satanic cults” that abusedchildren placed in day care.Although Christy ultimately testified incourt that nothing bad ever happened toher at the Kellers, the state had severalother pieces of evidence upon which tomake its case: the testimony of a youngemergency room doctor who examinedChristy and opined that lacerations to herhymen appeared consistent with sexualabuse; testimony from Austin Police whosaid they’d used a helicopter armed with aninfrared device to determine that graves ina small private cemetery near the day carehad been disturbed – consistent with storiesthe children told about rituals the Kellerswould perform there; and the opinion ofRandy Noblitt, a Dallas psychologist withan alleged expertise in ritual abuse.According to the 128-page writ filed thisweek by veteran Austin defense attorneyKeith Hampton, those key pieces of evidencehave now been discredited. Indeed,the faulty medical evidence – based on sciencethat has evolved since 1991 – and evidencethat Austin Police withheld, not onlyfrom the defense but also from prosecutors,key evidence related to the graveyard, areissues that were first raised bythe Chronicle in a reinvestigationof the Keller case,“Believing the Children,” publishedMarch 27, 2009.Although the children saidthey were filmed or photographednumerous times duringthese ritualistic and sexualassaults, the only physical evidencethat prosecutors broughtto court was a medical assessmentperformed by a youngER doctor, Michael Mouw.Stratton brought her daughterFrancesKellerto Brackenridge one night after catchingChristy crying in the bathroom. Mouw testifiedthat he tested for semen and foundnone, but that he did find “what appeared tobe lacerations” on Christy’s hymen.Mouw told us in 2009 that he learned laterthat what he saw was likely not an injury. In anaffidavit filed with Keller’s writ, Mouw elaborates:“Years after the trial, I attended a medicalseminar which included a slide presentationof hymens with normal variants,” Mouwwrote. “One slide of a normal hymen was sosimilar to what I had observed when I examinedChristy, I realized I had mistakenly identifiednormal discontinuity at those locationsLegeLines› BUdGET BLUES RETURn Democrats and education advocates are furious after Republicans filed statebudgets reinforcing spending cuts passed in 2011, despite Comptroller Susan Combs’ forecast projectingincreased state revenues over the next two years. On Jan. 14, House Appropriations Chair Jim Pittsfiled House Bill 1, a draft budget with $89.2 billion in general revenue spending for 2014-15, though theCenter for Public Policy Priorities calculates it will take at least $97.2 billion just to maintain currentservices. Senate Bill 1, as presented by Senate Finance Committee Chair Tommy Williams, R-TheWoodlands, is even worse, allocating $174 million less. The CPPP blasted both proposals for leaving $6billion in forecast revenue unallocated – a worrying sign when Gov. Rick Perry has said he wants more taxcuts. Both HB 1 and SB 1 would cover enrollment growth for schools, but would not restore the $500-perstudentcut passed last session. Texas AFT President Linda Bridges drily commented, “The best that canbe said for today’s initial spending plans is that they are just the starting point, not the ending point.”› PoinT oF oRdER The House finally adopted its new rules on Jan. 14, with yet more defeats for TeaPartiers. The hardliners failed to pass amendments that would tie the hands of committee chairs bycreating new paths to fast-track controversial bills out of committee. However, Rep. Phil King,R-Weatherford, found support to rewrite points of order, meaning bills could no longer be derailed justbecause of small technical and grammatical errors. In a genius flourish of political ju-jitsu, King remindedDemocrats that this would be a return to the 1990s rules of Democratic Speaker Pete Laney.› HURRY UP And WAiT Both House and Senate are out until Wednesday, Jan. 23. When they return, the toporder of business will be the drawing of Senate terms. Because of redistricting, all Senate seats werecontested in last November’s election. However, since they are held for staggered four-year terms, with halfthe seats on the ballot every two years, senators have to draw balls to see who gets the full four years andwho will be running for re-election in 2014. While no one wants to pull a two-year term, ambitious lawmakerseying higher office in 2014, like governor or attorney general, are much more likely to risk a statewiderun if they know their senate seat will still safely be there for them if they lose. – Richard Whittakeras lacerations. … While my testimony wasbased on my good-faith belief at that time, Inow realize my conclusion is not scientificallyor medically valid, and that I was mistaken.”Furthermore, Hampton argues that Austinpolice failed to reveal not only to Keller’sdefense counsel, but also to prosecutors,that “evidence” they had that graves hadbeen disturbed at a small private cemeterynear the Kellers’ home was false.In court, police testified extensively aboutusing an infrared-equipped helicopter tosee below the surface of the Oliver Cemetery.“Devotion by the police of so many of itsinvestigative resources toChristy’s cemetery-related”abuse claims “lent her fantasiesthe imprimatur of officialcredence,” reads the writ. Butwhat police failed to mentionwas that the cemetery caretaker,Frances Balta, told policein 1991 that there was no evidencethat any graves in thecemetery had been disturbedat all, and that there were perfectlynatural reasons that severalgraves appeared disturbed,such as erosion or theaddition of new dirt to a sinking plot.The failure to inform anyone about theperfectly innocent explanation for the “disturbed”grave sites amounts to a Bradyviolation (the duty of the state to turn overevidence favorable to the defense, per the1963 U.S. Supreme Court case styled Bradyv. Maryland), Hampton argues in the writ.Moreover, he says, the “use of false or misleadingevidence to convict” constitutes aviolation of Keller’s due process rights.Hampton also argues that the state’s ritualabuse “expert,” Noblitt, actually manipulatedprosecutors in order to further hiscareer, and more pointedly, to bolster hiscontention that satanic ritual abuse is notonly real, but also widespread. Reads thewrit: “The prosecutors likely were unawarethey were working with no expert, but a witnessbetter described as a man with a doctorateand fantastical theories of reality.” Nocourt and “no jury should ever rely on thetestimony of Dr. Noblitt,” Hampton wrote.“No person should be sent to prison basedin any way on his fringe, self-promoting,and imaginary expertise. The admission ofhis quack testimony was egregious error.”Ultimately, Hampton argues that theadvancements in medical science, the Bradyviolation, and Noblitt’s “quackery” underminewhatever confidence one might have had inKeller’s conviction. “When viewed in its totalityand with clarity of mind, the evidence andcircumstances involved in the prosecution ofFran Keller leads to the conclusion that she isinnocent and became the unfortunate magnetfor the hysteria of her time,” reads thewrit. “A 21st century ought to be able to recognizea 20th century witch-hunt, and renderjustice accordingly.” – Jordan SmithRead the full version of this story online ataustinchronicle.com/news.j a n a b i r c h u m(512)450-11213707 Kerbey LaneAustin H Texas 78731www.franzettijewelers.coma u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m JANUARY 18, 2013 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E 17

NEWSGuns & Ammo …and Austin PoliticsTexas’ entry into the post-Newtown massacregun debate has been predictably …Texan. As most state officeholders were gearingup for what they see as a hearty defenseof the Second Amendment, the local wingnutcontingent burst onto the national stagewhen Alex Jones did his best Sam Kinisonimpersonation for CNN host Piers Morgan.Locally, too, Austin municipalities arejockeying for position. The Travis CountyCommissioners Court kicked around theidea of a moratorium on gun shows at thecounty’s Exposition Center (which sits oncity-owned land). On Tuesday, however,commissioners decided to maintain the currentcontract with Saxet Gun Shows through2013. Word is that they will continue toreview the matter. At City Hall, the issuewas claimed by the City Council’s PublicHealth and Human Ser vices Committee(chaired by Mike Martin ez), where discussionTuesday afternoon ran the range ofpossible responses, but did not yet formulatespecific recommendations.Austin City Council Member Laura Mor rison– who sits on the PHHS Committee withMartinez and Chris Riley – requested that ittake up the issue, and in principle is lookingtoward something beyond a gun show ban,from a public health perspective. “In thewake of the Sandy Hook tragedy, I believekeeping our children safe is a public healthissue,” Morrison wrote in an email. “It’simperative that we take a holistic view on theissue of gun safety and responsible gun ownershipin our community in order to developa comprehensive plan moving forward,” shecontinued. “For example, we need to thoroughlyunderstand the state laws that are inplace, what policies other cities have implemented,what education is needed to promotesafety and responsible gun ownership,the potential for gun show bans at publiclyowned facilities, as well as other areas ofj o h n a n D e r s o nA gun rights rally outsideAustin Police headquarters in 2010concern. I see the discussion at next week’sPHHS subcommittee as an important firststep in developing a thoughtful comprehensiveapproach to a safer community.”Martinez also indicated that he would beready to take more comprehensive action –if the city can do so within the bounds ofTexas law. “If we could find something thatwe felt like … would make a difference andis within our legal [purview], then yes – Ithink I could be in favor of it.”It’s hard to argue against keeping kidssafe – but in Texas, somebody is going totry. Gov. Rick Perry has already suggestedthat one potential response to school shootingswould be arming more teachers; andon Tuesday – the day the CommissionersCourt discussed the idea of banning gunshows at the Expo Center – Attorney General(and likely gubernatorial candidate) GregAbbott offered this to his Twitter followers:“If Austin or Travis Co. try to ban gun showsthey better be ready for a double-barreledlawsuit.” Questionable metaphor there.Spokes people from Abbott’s office did notrespond to a request for clarification aboutwhat grounds the Attorney General’s Officemight use in a lawsuit.Also playing a role in all of this is thenational bank of gun enthusiasts. Lastweek, the offices of Riley and CouncilMember Kathie Tovo each received a phonecall from Long Island, N.Y., in which a mancalling himself Paul Caruso offered vaguethreats about potential danger should theCouncil move to ban gun shows. Tovothought it worrisome enough to check inwith her colleagues about the call.THE HIGHTOWER REPORTWhy Is It So Dark at This Time of Year?The moon sinks low on the horizon, as ifit’s trying to hide. Frightened animals fleeinto the woods, even though nothing seemsto be chasing them. Nature has turned topsyturvy.It can mean only one thing: TheLegislature is back in session.I’ve seen enough state legislaturesin action – Michigan, forexample, Florida, and, ofcourse, Wisconsin – to knowthat our Texas bunch doesn’thave a lock on lunacy, but wecertainly have more than ourshare of loco lawmakers.

You can hear his radiocommentaries on KOOPRadio 91.7FM, weekdays at10:58am and 12:58pm.The only public official not playing his orher presumed role might be Land Com missionerJerry Patterson. Patterson, who hasalready announced a run for lieutenant governor,called Austin Mayor Lee Leffing wellwith one potential solution: Offer gun showattendees a one-card-serves-all opportunityto get a background check at the entranceto the event. If you pass, you can buy all theguns you want (and can legally own). If youfail, no can do.Leffingwell confirmed that Pattersongave him a ring “like a lot of people have.”Though he called the conversation “positive,”he added that he referred Patterson toMartinez. As for his own views, the mayornoted that he is on record (along with hundredsof mayors nationwide, via MayorsAgainst Illegal Guns) for stronger federalrestrictions on ammo clips and strengthenedbackground checks. He notes that he’sfocused on action at the state and federallevel, where any restrictions might be moreeffective. Still, Leffingwell could well entertaina move to take action locally.Should the city enact such an effort,based on Patterson’s proposal, it wouldmark something of a banner compromise:The proposal would close the widely criticizedgun show loophole that allows folks topurchase guns “person-to-person” withouta background check at those events. Itwould also represent a rare instance of astate-level political power-player reachingdown to help the city of Austin.Not that any of it will ward off continuedstrong opposition from the gun lobby, or thelegislators and state-level executives whopay it homage. At least, if the likes of Abbottcontinue to play their assigned roles.– Mike Kaninby jimhightowerOver my dead body, cried Lavender! It washis Alamo moment, as he rose in defense ofthe holy right of Texans to waste as muchenergy as we damn well please. To counteractthe big bad feds’ outrageous attempt to saveenergy for America and savemoney for consumers, Lavender’slaw invited bulbmakers toset up shop here and freely producethe old-style, high-wattagebulbs. Where else but Texas?Imagine how proud DavyCrockett would be to know thathe died to make this possible.Unfortunately for Lavender,major bulbmakers were alreadyprofiting from the burgeoning conservationmarket, so they had no interest in goingbackward. “The most disappointing thing tome,” Lavender now says dimly, “is that wehaven’t found anyone willing to put in a plant.”And that’s why the moon hides and animalsflee when legislatures convene – it’sscary to see so many 5-watt bulbs sitting in100-watt sockets.18 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m

NEWSillo tkJumping the Sharkon Women’s HealthFor the sake of anti-abortion politics, the governorand the Legislature are putting women in dangerBy Jordan SmithIn mid-December, before a friendly crowdat the Source for Women, a Houston antiabortion“pregnancy resource” center, Gov.Rick Perry announced his women’s healthpriorities for the 83rd legislative session:Increase regulation on abortion facilities anddoctors, and outlaw all abortion after 20weeks gestation, the point at which, Perrysaid, “a baby can feel the pain of being killed.We have an obligation to end that type ofcruelty,” he proclaimed to vigorous applause.“We cannot, and we will not, idly stand bywhile the unborn are being put through theagony of having their lives ended.”Whether a fetus can in fact “feel pain”that early in a pregnancy is unclear; a 2005review of available research, published inthe Journal of the American Medical Association, found that while a fetus may exhibitbase reflexes by 20 weeks, it isn’t until thethird trimester that the nervous system issufficiently developed to actually registerpain. In any case, the incidence of abortionafter 20 weeks of gestation is exceedingly20 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o mrare: Of the 77,592 abortions performed inTexas in 2010 (the most recent year withcomplete statistics), just 420 proceduresoccurred after 20 weeks – and many if notmost of those procedures were the result ofserious medical complications.Last week, in his opening day address tothe Lege, Perry reiterated his claim, andmay designate passage of a “fetal pain bill”as a legislative emergency item – moreurgent than public education, water planning,or addressing the $4.5 billion Medicaidshortfall. In 2011, Perry designated an ultrasound-before-abortionbill an emergencyitem, touching off a protracted legislativebattle. The law eventually passed, requiringwomen seeking an abortion to first undergoan invasive, narrated ultrasound procedure.As of press time, Perry spokeswomanLucy Nashed said there were as yet noannouncements to be made on potentialemergency items. Sarah Wheat, vice presidentfor community affairs for PlannedParenthood of Greater Texas, said Perryj a s o n s t o u tIn court, the state has arguedthat furthering a “pro-life”message is as importantas actual health care.might well wait until later this month, whenthe annual Texas Rally for Life convergeson the Capitol. At that rally, Perry oftendelivers his most pointed attacks on reproductiverights. “It will be interesting to see,”said Wheat, “if he designates somethingthat is clearly not a public health emergencyas a public health priority.”The Real CrisesFor when it comes to women’s health,state lawmakers have very real, serious, andbroadly significant matters to address. Mostobviously, the family planning and basicreproductive health services budget meantto serve low-income, uninsured Texaswomen was all but destroyed in 2011. As aconsequence, dozens of veteran family planningproviders closed, and more than 100,000women lost access to basic health care.The dismantling of the traditional familyplanning program also had a ripple effecton the vibrancy of the Women’s Health Program,which until Jan. 1 was a Medicaidwaiverprogram designed to amplify thestate’s ability to serve low-income womenin need of reproductive health services. TheWHP was created in 2005 to take advantageof a 90% federal funding match in order toreduce the number of unplanned pregnanciesin the state paid for by Medicaid –roughly 56% of Texas births are paid for bytaxpayers (more than 220,000 in 2010) – byextending government-paid family planningservices to women who wouldn’t beeligible for Medicaid unless pregnant. Theprogram has by all accounts been a greatsuccess, but during the legislative interim,state officials instituted new rules for providers– rules written expressly to excludePlanned Parenthood, the state’s largest providerof WHP services, from participation inthe program, because some Texas lawmakersconsider the nearly century-old nonprofitnothing more than an abortion “promoter”and provider. Neither the fact thatpregnant women are ineligible for the WHP,nor that none of the PP clinics involved in itactually provide abortion services, has dissuadedTexas officials.That rule change – which is contrary tofederal law – resulted in the feds pulling allfederal funding for the WHP. Meanwhile,more than 40,000 additional women will nolonger be eligible for state health servicesunless they leave Planned Parenthood andchoose a state-approved provider. The newrules have also kept the state involved inlitigation for more than a year, defendingits right to choose the health care providersfor low-income women. In court, thestate has argued that furthering a “prolife”message is as important as actualhealth care and preventing unwanted pregnancies– and that the involvement of PPdilutes that message.In that political context, women’s healthadvocates aren’t optimistic about the newLegislature. Will lawmakers comprehendhow recent policies have led to the destructionof the health care safety net, or willthey continue to push a social agendawrapped in regulations and budget cuts,despite its disastrous effects on the state’smost vulnerable women and families? “It isirrefutable, the public health damage thathas been done,” says Wheat. “Texas is onsuch a misguided path when it comes towomen’s health right now. We are on trackto be one of these states where people justroll their eyes because what we’re doingmakes no sense.”Collateral DamageThe pressure on women’s health careproviders across the state had been buildingover the years, but the 2011 sessionwas the most brutal in recent memory.The dismantling of the women’s healthcare network proceeded on two distinctbut related tracks – drastically reducingthe state’s budget for traditional familyplanning programs, and then rewritingrules for the WHP. The efforts shared thecommon political goal of defundingPlanned Parenthood.By the Numbers*: Texas Women’s Health Care• Texas women in need of family planning services (est.): 1.5 million• State family planning funding, 2009-2011: $100 million• State family planning funding, 2011-2013: $38 million• Annual clients served by family planning, prior to funding cuts (avg.): 244,000• Number of Texas family planning clients served, 2011: 203,000• Number of Texas family planning clients served, 2012: 75,160• Number of family planning clients losing service, 2011 to 2012: 128,000• Number of clients losing service, WHP and family planning (combined est.): >167,000• Number of Planned Parenthood clinics closed by funding cuts: 13• Total number of clinics closed by funding cuts: 60• Women’s Health Program clients served by Planned Parenthood, 2012: >40,000• Women’s Health Program clients served by Planned Parenthood, 2013: 0• Number of Texas births funded by Medicaid, 2010: >220,000• Percentage of Texas births paid for by Medicaid: 56%• Est. additional Medicaid births due to no access to birth control, 2013: 23,000* chart numbers rounded

On April 1, 2011, lawmakers stripped about$61 million from the roughly $100 mil lionbiennial budget traditionally used to fundthe Department of State Health Services’family planning services. Since 2005, thosefunds had provided screenings for cancerand related health concerns, testing andtreatment for sexually transmitted diseases,and birth control supplies for 244,000 lowincomeand uninsured women (and men) ayear. That cut left just $38 million over thebiennium to accomplish the same mission.Moreover, lawmakers devised a stringentfunding matrix for the Department of StateHealth Services for the remaining $38 million.Pursuant to a rider first enacted in2005, up to $10 million in funds per year wasdesignated for “federally qualified healthcenters” (one-stop medical shops for theuninsured); next came public health institutions,followed by “nonpublic entities”that provide comprehensive care in additionto family planning services (such asAus tin’s venerable People’s CommunityClin ic). Finally, any remaining dollars couldbe used to fund specialty family planning(aka “Tier Three”) clinics – includingPlanned Parenthood clinics.The ultimate intention, of course, was thatthere would be no funding left for any TierThree clinics. And there wasn’t. But therealso wasn’t enough funding for most of thenonpublic providers – like People’s – or evenfor county health departments, which hadlong been providing family-planning servicesin both urban and rural communities.Consider Dallas’ Parkland Hospital, whichhad been the state’s largest single providerof family planning services. In 2010, Parklandreceived $6.9 million and served morethan 38,000 clients; in state fiscal year 2012,the Dallas County Hospital District, whichoperates Parkland, received just $2.8 million,and served fewer than half the clientsit had in 2010 – meaning more than 19,000clients lost services from a single provider.In Austin, three of the four local familyplanning providers – El Buen Samaritano,People’s Community Clinic, and PlannedParenthood Austin Family Planning – lostroughly $1.4 million in funding that hadbeen used in 2011 to serve nearly 9,000 clients;only one provider, CommUnityCare,continued on p.22We knoW hoW to custom shape hats, kill fire ants & thread pipes.Hardware to western wear, Feed toseed and everytHing in between!501 Bastrop hWy. 78741 512-385-3452 callahansgeneralstore.coma u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m JANUARY 18, 2013 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E 21

NEWS women’S health continued from p.21 continued on p.24Sarah wheatp h o t o s b y j o h n a n d e r s o nGov. rick Perryan FQHC, was granted funds for 2012.Accord ing to DSHS, in FY 2012 CommUnityCarespent $262,801 to see just over 1,000clients. (One direct consequence of thesemassive statewide cuts is a spike in thenumber and public cost of unplanned pregnancies;because of the family planningcuts alone, the state is anticipating the birthof roughly an additional 23,000 Medic aidpaidbirths that would not have occurredhad the women had access to birth control.)Although some lawmakers insist thatprioritizing FQHCs is a better use of funds,that change has neither expanded servicesnor saved the state any money. Sen. RobertDeuell, R-Greenville (who is also a doctor),insists that the health centers provide amedical “home” for patients and thus arebetter equipped to handle the whole patient.Should a woman come in for birth control,for example, the FQHC must also provideother services like dental, without regard tocost. Yet the state’s 69 FQHCs are burstingwith patients, and they have more complicatedbilling procedures and costlier overheadthan, say, a family planning clinic. It’snot surprising that these entities see fewerclients in the family planning program, orthat they spend more money to do so.In 2012, FQHCs received roughly $3.2 millionand served 15,555 clients – fewer thandid Parkland, even with its slashed budget.“For 10 years on [the House Approp riationsCommittee] I’ve argued that we should notput this money into FQHCs,” says AustinRep. Dawnna Dukes. “This does not supportthe women in need.”In other words, while legislators accomplishedtheir goal of excluding PlannedParenthood from the subsidized family planningprogram, in that process, providersother than PP, and thousands of patients,have been hurt. Since the funding cuts, 13Texas PP clinics have closed (and possibly a14th in San Antonio), leaving 63 in operationacross the state. But because of the fundingcuts, a greater number of non-PP providershave either closed their doors or reducedtheir hours and the number of clients theyserve. In all, as of this past fall, 54 providershad shut their doors – including 28 publicand private comprehensive health providersand 13 non-PP specialty family planningclinics. (According to testimony last week byUT-Austin sociology Professor Joseph Potter,another six clinics have since closed, bringingthe total to 60.) Another nine comprehensivehealth providers had to reduce theirhours of service, as did 29 family-planningclinics, according to research published inthe New England Journal of Medicine, partof a three-year study on the effects of cuts towomen’s health programs in Texas undertakenby researchers at UT’s PopulationResearch Center.The slashed family planning budget providedcare for just 75,160 clients in 2012,down 63% from the number served in 2011.In all, more than 127,000 people lost accessto health care last year. Unless somethingradical happens this year, the number ofwomen going without care is likely to persistor increase over the coming biennium,due at least in part to the demise of theMed icaid-funded Women’s Health Program.(The draft House budget adds roughly $8million back into the family planning budgetfor the next biennium. Whether thatmoney will remain, or even help, remains tobe seen.)Fantasy Health CareFor the overwhelmingly Republican legislativemajority, cutting the family planningbudget simply wasn’t enough. Toensure complete defunding of Planned Parenthood,a group of lawmakers, promptedby Deuell, insisted that the PP clinicsshould also be cut off from seeing patientsunder the Women’s Health Program, aMedicaid-waiver program that providedlow-income and uninsured women withaccess to family planning and basic healthservices. The feds provided $9 for every dollarspent by Texas. WHP rules had longincluded a prohibition on using abortionproviders, but that clause had never beforebeen used as a wedge to force out PP clinicsthat do not provide abortions.Under federal law, women have the rightto see the qualified provider of their choice,and former Health and Human ServicesCommissioner Albert Hawkins knew that tointerpret WHP rules otherwise would jeopardizethe federal funding. According to a2012 report on the program, in calendaryear 2010 the state spent just $3.6 millionon the program, and saved more than $54“We are on track to be one of these states where people justroll their eyes because what we’re doing makes no sense.”– Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas’ Sarah Wheatmillion in general revenue expenditureswhile averting an expected 8,215 unplannedMedicaid-paid births. In 2012 alone, PlannedParenthood saw more than 40,000 WHP clients,and the provider has historicallyserved 40-50% of all WHP clients.But in 2010, Deuell asked Attorney GeneralGreg Abbott if PP could be excluded as an“abortion affiliate” – and Abbott agreed that itcould. State officials spent more than a yearcrafting language to do just that – and thesame amount of time defending their right todo so in federal and state courts. Thus far, thecourts have agreed that it is unlikely that PPcan be excluded from a Medicaid-fundedWHP, and that the state can’t draw federalMedicaid dollars while discriminating amongMedicaid providers. As a consequence, thestate has opted to let the federal funding end,and to install a newly branded Texas Women’sHealth Program that is exclusively statemanagedand funded – enabling the state todetermine which providers women may see ifthey wish to continue receiving subsidizedcare. For the women this program is meant toserve – those between 18 and 44, uninsured,and at 185% of the federal poverty level, yettoo flush to receive traditional Medicaid unlesspregnant – this is really no choice at all.That is what Marcela Balquinta saysabout the state’s new program. Balquintalives in McAllen, where she works parttimeas a sexual violence prevention educationcoordinator. She has joined a lawsuitfiled in state court last month by PlannedPar ent hood that challenges the state’sexclusion of PP, where Balquinta has beenreceiving WHP services for four years. Thesuit argues that the exclusion conflicts withstate laws that, like federal law, prohibitdiscrimination among providers. The suitalso challenges a poison-pill provision inthe rules that would kill the program altogethershould PP prevail in court – a provisionadded by state health departmentofficials without the consent of state lawmakerswho last session rejected such adrastic measure. (See “Texas vs. PlannedParenthood,” below.)Should the state prevail and PP be barredfrom participation, it appears that there willsimply not be enough providers to absorbthe more than 40,000 women left withoutaccess to their provider of choice – let alonetake on additional clients should the programcontinue to grow. In 2007, 91,683women were enrolled; by 2011, that numberhad grown to 205,354. Not all of the womenwho could seek service actually do so in agiven year; in 2012, the number whoreceived services declined slightly – from106,093 in FY 2011 to 103,668 in FY 2012.The decline, argues Fran Hagerty, CEO ofthe Women’s Health and Family PlanningAssociation of Texas, is due directly to thefact that the WHP was designed to takeadvantage of the state’s previously robustnetwork of family planning providers; aftershredding the family planning budget andwith it the provider base, there is simply noway any program can pick up the slack, letalone increase services. “It’s supposed towork hand in hand,” she says. “You can’thave one without the other.”The state continues to insist that theTWHP can succeed without Planned Parenthood.On Jan. 7, it ratcheted up that optimismanother notch with the release of areport by the Health and Human Services22 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m

NEWS women’S health continued from p.22tionsT E xaS vS . PlaNNEd Pa r ENThoodOn Jan. 11, after a daylong hearing, Travis County Judge StephenYelenosky denied Planned Parenthood a temporary injunction,allowing the state to continue operating, for now, the state-funded TexasWomen’s Health Program that excludes the nonprofit. Although thejudge agreed that “probable injury” to Planned Parenthood and its clientsmay result, that is not enough to block the program. Now that the state isfunding the once-Medicaid-funded program, Yelenosky said, there is lesslikelihood that Planned Parenthood will prevail on the merits of the case(one of the elements required for issuing a temporary injunction).At issue is whether the state can ban PP from participation in the newstate-funded TWHP, which officially began Jan. 1, providing basic health carefor low-income, uninsured women ages 18-44 who would not be eligible forMedicaid unless pregnant. Federal Medicaid law prohibits discriminationamong qualified providers. Pete Schenkkan, representing the state’s PPCommission that purports to show not onlythat the TWHP can function without PP, butthat the providers that have signed on tothe new program can actually see manymore clients than did PP, thereby increasingoverall program capacity by more than67,000 clients. “We’ve added more than athousand new doctors and clinics to theprogram since this spring, and we foundthat they are ready and willing to servethese patients,” said HHSC Executive Commission er Kyle Janek in a press release.Women’s health advocates remain quiteskeptical: Why would there suddenly be somany doctors ready to sign on for a programthat has existed for five years? Whywouldn’t they have done so by now? Thereis a relatively simple answer, says HHSCspokeswoman Stephanie Goodman: “thecapacity may have existed in the past, butthe demand wasn’t there,” she wrote in anemail to the Chronicle. Hence the agency’sreport, based on surveys administered toproviders, querying them about their intentionsto serve poor women in the program.HHSC’s numbers haven’t convinced healthpolicy experts such as Stacey Pogue, a seniorpolicy analyst at the Center for Pub lic PolicyPriorities who previously worked for HHSC.In a post to the CPPP’s blog, Pogue notes thatproviders who in the past have seen very fewclients are now claiming they’re ready forhordes of new patients. “Take the Abilenearea, for example,” she wrote. In brief, the PPclinic there (which closed in November) saw601 WHP clients in 2012. The other 16 WHPproviders within 30 miles of Abilene saw acombined total of 285 clients, and the seventhat actually responded to theHHSC survey saw just 106clients in 2012. Nonetheless,the seven providers now projectthat together they canserve 5,750 TWHP clients in2013. “An increase of thatmagnitude is astonishing,”Pogue wrote.Not just astonishing.Unbelievable.“As you know, PlannedParenthood was the single largest provider inthe [WHP], caring for nearly 45% of women inthe program,” PP’s Wheat wrote in an email.“The simple fact is – regardless of what newstatements are issued by the health department– there is not the capacity for otherproviders to absorb the tens of thousands ofPlanned Parenthood patients statewide.”affiliates, argued before Yelenosky that state law also prohibits Texas fromdiscriminating against PP’s participation in the program, because it forbidsjeopardizing federal funding. Assistant Solicitor General KristoferMonson disagreed, saying state law requires the health agency to ensurethat any WHP program not use money to “perform or promote elective abortionsor affiliate with entities that perform or promote elective abortions.”Over the five years of the Medicaid-funded WHP, Planned Parenthood wasthe largest single provider of services, annually serving 40-50% of all programclients. In dumping PP from the program, the state is orphaning morethan 40,000 women who had been receiving services at PP clinics,although it insists other providers can fill the gap.Despite the ruling, Schenkkan says he remains “confident in the merits ofour case,” and is eager to proceed to trial. For more detail on the hearing,see “Planned Parenthood Denied Injunction,” Newsdesk blog, Jan. 11. – J.S.Fran hagertyWomen Serving WomenDespite the relatively bleak outlook forwomen’s health going into the 83rd session,there are nonetheless two potential brightspots. Under the Dome, talks are ongoingamong lawmakers about how to put some ofthe money slashed from the family planningbudget in 2011 back into the coming“When you’re not beholden to theLegislature … it’s pretty simple:getting women served.”– Fran Hagerty, CEO of theWomen’s Health and FamilyPlanning Association of Texasbiennial budget, says Rep. Donna Howard(D-Austin). “We’re all trying to search forwhat we can do here,” she said. Whilemoney may be found – in federal fundsstripped from the budget last year andmoved to other programs – it seems unlikelythat those funds would be given back tothe family planning budget without restric-placed on providers – that is, PlannedParenthood. “So, I find myself in the positionof wanting to work with those who areworking to get some restoration of thefunds and those who are working to get allqualified providers” back into the system,Howard said. And that may be too tall anorder: “There is still clearly a strong cohorthere at the Legislature who are opposed toPlanned Parenthood,” she said. “I don’tknow what we’re going to be able to do, andI’m very concerned about it.”More assertive – and perhaps more promising– are new attempts to wrest from legislativecontrol all of the federal money thatcurrently remains in the family planningbudget. Known as Title X money (from thefederal legislation), this is the only pot offunding that lawmakers were unable todivert to other programs last year, becausefor four decades this money has been earmarkedspecifically for family planning.But Title X funds need not go directly to thestate government: In a number of states –including California, Utah, Iowa, Ohio, andIllinois – the federal government grantsTitle X money directly to PP or anothernonprofit provider, which then administersthe grant and distributesfunds to qualified providersacross those states.If Hagerty has her way,that’s what will happen inTexas. Hagerty has beenworking for months with hercoalition of providers on aplan to take all Title X moneyearmarked for Texas – moneythat over the last few yearshas gone directly to DSHS,with its disbursement subject to prevailingpolitics at the Capitol. Roughly $14.5 millionin Title X funds will be available nextyear – and Hagerty says her group wouldlike to have it all.Hagerty has spent the last four monthsrecruiting providers to join her lengthy federalfunding application, a process that was,24 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o mWe makeloving yourneighbor easy.• Convenient local office• Money-saving discounts• Low down payments• Monthly payment plans• 24-hour service and claims• Coverage available by phoneCall for a free rate quote.732-2211 ext. 39041 Research Blvd. Suite 240, Austin(Hwy 183 at Burnet Rd., in the Colonnade Center)Some discounts, coverages, payment plans and features are not available in allstates or all GEICO companies.

A constant collaborator, teacher, and friend of nonprofitart and queer institutions alike, Heath is also a curator, as well as a budding children’s book illustrator. Oh, and he cofoundedand operates a “3-way artist/curator/designer talent agency,” Busy Town LLC, the title of which is cribbed fromRichard Scarry’s famous books. To know him is to recognize the dexterity with which he manages to move among such variedroles. Only three years into his time in Austin, Heath has had a strong hand in creating some of the most memorable visualsof the fests and parades that litter Austin’s calendar: Psych Fest, QueerBomb, GayBiGayGay. And yet, although it may seemthat Heath has his thumb in every pie, his own work is quiet, domestic, vulnerable, and lovely: “Always,” Heath says, “insearch of community and comfort.” The hybrid’s the thing …William Heath: In talking about hybrid practices, I have totalk about both of the personae I use. William Heath is acurator, and Billy Beasty, the second-in-command persona, isan artist. Billy is more sexually provocative, and William is …not. Billy is who I wish I could be sometimes [laughs].Austin Chronicle: When did the personae arrive?WH: They arrived as I moved to town three yearsago. Angeliska Polacheck [of Gadjo Diskofame] told me I needed a persona. So I initiallyinvented a character called the GlitterBeast– who was a really aggressive character. Forexample, GlitterBeast had a 9/11 danceparty. It was too much – people shut it downand weren’t feeling it. But it was probably oneof the most beautiful installations I made. Ihad Faith Gay DJ that event, and I was workingwith Sym Prole [of Liberty or Death Industries],who has also been a constant collaborator.AC: How would you define your own studio space?WH: My studio space is my living space, my bedroom, myhouse. My own work is typically about romantic longing. Partby andystudiovisitsof my drive to work with other people is to get away from myown limitations around this subject matter; it’s a method ofgetting away from that narcissistic space.AC: What do you get from having your studio space as yourhome space?WH: Well, it makes sense with my practice. I liketo make objects that fit in the space of everydaylife – objects that sit oddly in the home. Forexample, this [pointing at a centerpiece onhis dining room table] takes the place of anobject in the home such as a bowl of fruit,which signifies that a space is decorated.For my own centerpiece, I’m bringing objectstogether from past shows, residue from otherprojects, and putting it all together. In this way,I carry a whole history of installation work.AC: I saw you out at Austin’s Twelfth Night parade.What did you do for that?WH: Well, outside is a big paper moon, which I got offCraigslist. It was from a wedding. For some reason I oftenend up with leftovers from weddings.campbellA n d y C A m p b e l l@AusChronArtsWilliam heath,at home inhis studioAC: There’s so much excess and debris from weddings.WH: Yes, a lot of temporary objects. That paper moon wasfrom a wedding, which then went to the Hotel San Jose for aNew Year’s Eve party, which then was a DJ Booth cover forthe Shame dance party … it’s been making the rounds. It’shaving a life right now.AC: When do you know it’s time to retire an object like the bigpaper moon?WH: I think something like the moon has a shelf-life thatkeeps halving itself. So, soon. I have no attachment to thephysicality of it – take it apart, put wheels on it, cut it up. Ilike having these objects because they’re often an access tocollaboration, and it fuels conversations with other artists. nMalaise and MethodologyAnn CvetkoviCh CrAfts A rAdiCAl ApproACh toConsidering depressionby Cindy WidnerIn the epilogue to her new book, Depression:A Public Feeling, Ann Cvetkovich calls on LyndaBarry, whose wonder of a graphic memoir/writers’manual, What It Is, lays down the will-sappingquestions that have hamstrung everyonewho has ever tried to create something: “Isthis good?” and “Does this suck?”Barry’s book includes illustrated versionsof those questions – twin demons, one goadinggrandiose confidence, the other slammingit down – to which Cvetkovich adds a coupleof mental self-taunts specific to her project:“This isn’t scholarship,” and “You’re a fullprofessor; you can do what you want!”Cvetkovich is indeed the (tenured) Ellen C.Garwood Centennial Professor of English andProfessor of Women’s and Gender Studies atthe University of Texas at Austin, to be exact– so presumably she’s not putting her job onthe line. Nevertheless, she has taken somehuge risks withDepression. Ratherthan building a traditionalacademic argumentwith researchand theory, the bookcombines stylisticallydistinct and potentiallydisparate parts thatadd up to a highlyreadable, relatable, radical treatise that providesmany points of entry and fresh thinkingon one of the most overexamined subjects ofthe past few decades.Cvetkovich’s biggest leap might be startingher book with a chapter called “The DepressionJournals,” a first-person memoir of her ownstruggles, in an act of risky vulnerabilityregardless of any potentially critical academicresponse. The full critical/scholarly receptionwill take some time, Cvetkovich explained overthe phone by way of Marfa, where she was visitingbefore the start of the semester, but “initialreactions have been very enthusiastic,especially from students – including someonewho said it should be required reading forgrad students.” (Full disclosure: I’m a formerstudent of Cvetkovich’s.)“I kind of jokingly called the book a queeracademic self-help book,” she said, “as away of mocking its very specialized demographicniche – but also because there’s aself-help book, and a memoir, for every kindof predicament.”“Then again, I’m not actually treating people,and I don’t have the responsibility tomake them feel better,” she added. “So I’mfreed up to write about what I think and/orwhat works for me, and if other people find ituseful, that’s great.”Noting that “a ton of artists” – from musicianKathleen Hanna to visual artist UlrikeMüller and writer Eileen Myles – attended herNYU reading and citing her inclusion in KUT’songoing Views & Brews series, Cvetkovichsaid that “it looks like there will be interestoutside the academy, too.”That possibility is not surprising, given that,while Depression looks at the issue from severalperspectives, its ultimate vision of a“utopia of ordinary habit” focuses on belovedbastions of radical feminists and queer communities:twisted lounge act Kiki and Herb,performer and gem-sweater enthusiast LeslieHall, crochet sculptor Allyson Hall, radicalcrafting, and nontraditional spirituality. Inaddition, the inclusion of creative and academicfigures with even larger pockets of devotees(Barry, Cornel West, David FosterWallace) is likely to pique even more interest.“My intention is to show that depression canlook many different ways, and that it’s going oninside many different kinds of people,”Cvetkovich explains. “I want to broaden theways we think about depression, so that it isnot just a medical category and so the expertson depression aren’t just doctors – but alsohumanities scholars, artists, ordinary people.” nKUT will host the discussion “Mental Illness andCreativity,” with Cvetkovich, Dr. Carrie Barron (The CreativityCure), psychology teacher KayLynn Fenn, and musicianand author Thor Harris (Swans, Shearwater) on Tuesday,Jan. 22, 6pm, at the Cactus Cafe in the Texas Union on theUT campus (2247 Guadalupe).

THE ARTS theatreTheatre ThinkerIn the online dialogue about the art of the stage,Travis Bedard is a starBy Dan SolomonIf you’re reading this at two o’clock in themorning, there’s a good chance that TravisBedard is awake and on the Internet.He’s probably poring over a vast assortmentof theatre blogs from around theworld, but he might be on Twitter. If he is,he’s either telling the more than 2,500 theatremakerswho follow @TravisBedard about thebest things he’s read on those blogs or treatingthem to cranky, pithy bon mots framedas advice. (“Approaching what you do asthough it’s holy can be the beginnings ofbeauty. Forcing others to do the same neveris.”) Or he could be preparing a post for2amtheatre.com, the theatre discussionblog for which he serves as managing editor.But it’s a safe bet that, if it’s the middleof the night, Travis Bedard is awake, online,and thinking about theatre.The amount of time that Bedard spendsthinking – and talking – about theatre hasbuilt him a not-insubstantial international following.Searching for his name on theGuardian’s website nets you results in thedouble digits from coverage by the Britishpaper’s theatre writers. The people who participatein discussions with Bedard onlineinclude names like National Endowment forthe Arts Chairman Rocco Landesman andGoodman Theatre ArtisticDirector Robert Falls. TheGuardian cites his “wisewords” and “vehemently passionateresponse[s]”; currentWashington Post and formerNew York Times theatre criticPeter Marks says on Twitterthat Bedard’s “input [is]always valuable.” There’s afascinating ongoing conversationhappening online aboutthe future of this old, endangeredart form, and Bedard isin the thick of it, serving asAustin’s representative.Which is a little bit strange,when you think about it. Inthe online theatre community,Bedard is an importantfigure who gets cited in the Guardian andfollowed by the head of the NEA. But ifyou’re enthusiastic about the stage workactually happening in Austin, you could livea full and varied theatregoing life withoutever encountering any of Bedard’s work.He’s artistic director of CambiareProductions, the company that he co-foundedwith playwright/director Will HollisSnider and stage manager Amanda Gass,but since the beginning of 2009, Cambiarehas staged just two shows: that year’s premiereof Snider’s new script for Orestes and,in 2012, Messenger No. 4 (or … How toSurvive a Greek Tragedy), also by Snider.After Orestes, Bedard didn’t take part inc o u r t e s y o f b r e t b r o o k s h i r eBedard as Doctorroyer-Collard in Quillsanother production for a year and a half,when he acted in the Capital T Theatre productionof Spirits to Enforce.He hasn’t made much work, but if youwere to ask someone on the Internet whomakes theatre in Austin, Bedard’s namewould probably come up before, say, KenWebster’s or Bonnie Collum’s.Bedard is aware of the disconnect betweenhis body of work – especially as a producer– and his influence in theatre discussionsoutside of Austin. “I don’t make enoughtheatre in town to match my reputation,” hesays. “I’ve been covered more in theGuardian than I have in the Chronicle. Ican go to New York and sit in on a rehearsalfor [award-winning off-Broadway company]Flux Ensemble. If I walked up to an averagegroup in Austin and said, ‘Can I sit in on arehearsal?’ I’d have to show ID. But if I callGus Schulenburg, who runs Flux TheatreEnsemble, he’d be excited. They’d make anextra cake.”They may not be making cakes for Bedardhere, but he’s finally begun to match thetime he spends discussing theatre onlinewith the time he spends creating theatre inAustin: In the past seven months, he’sworked on five productions, beginning with7 Towers Theatre Company’s’Tis Pity She’s a Whore andthe Hidden Room Theatre’sRose Rage last summer, andculminating with his currentperformance as DoctorRoyer-Collard in Quills forDifferent Stages. He’s alsoputting his money where hismouth is as a producer oncemore with Cambiare’s entryinto the FronteraFest ShortFringe, premiering New Yorkplaywright Mariah MacCarthy’s “All Abouta Boy” on Jan. 17. After all this time talkingthe talk online about what he wants theatreto look like, Bedard is walking the walkhere to help make it that way.So, of course, it’s time for him toleave town.nThere’s a reason why Bedard’s name hasbecome closely identified with Austin theatreon the Internet: He has big ideas and ispassionate when talking about them. Youdon’t capture the ear of artistic directors atmajor national theatres like Chicago’sGoodman or Washington, D.C.’s WoollyMammoth, as Bedard has, unless you’rej a n a b i r c h u mIn the online theatre community, Bedard is animportant figure who gets cited in the Guardianand followed by the head of the NEA.saying something interesting. A conversationwith him quickly becomes a two-and-ahalf-hourexploration of his hopes anddreams for the possibilities of theatre.Bedard can talk about the results of theexperiments that he’s been able to put intoaction. (“I was so happy [on Actor BenefitNight for Orestes]. Everyone showed up, andKim Mead brought beer to sell, like, ‘I hadthis beer in my fridge. Sell it and give it tothem.’ It felt like fucking Stone Soup or theend of It’s a Wonderful Life.”) He can connectthe dots between companies working inAustin now and groups in other cities doingsimilar work, expressing sincere admirationfor companies like Austin Playhouse: “I lovethose kids: ‘We’re in a tent! We’re in a mall! Idon’t care – we’re doing a show!’ It hasn’tbeen done since St. Louis, 10 years ago. Ilove it so hard.” He can distill what he’sobserved about our most successful companiesinto advice for those who aspire to theirsuccess: “Here’s why all of the Rudes’ workswork: They never once pretend that they’redoing anything other than what they are.They work in their space and work withthings they have. If they can’t do more, theydon’t do more. That’s it.” He can summarizewhat makes Austin unique among U.S. theatrecities: “It’s cheap to make theatre here,so interesting people make theatre here. Youdon’t get Rubber Rep in San Francisco,because their first couple shows would havecost so much for them to put up, they neverwould have done it. The Mechs wouldn’thave lasted five years, never mind becomean institution. No one would have giventhem a warehouse in San Francisco – there’dbe a dot-com start-up in that.”In other words, Bedard is smart abouttheatre and passionate about the way peoplemake it in Austin – and he uses the factthat he’s part of an international dialogueabout the medium to offer some uniquetravis Bedardinsights into what’s happening here.Bedard moved here from San Franciscoin 2004 so his wife, lighting designer MeganReilly, could pursue her master’s degree atthe University of Texas. In S.F., he learnedthe basics of nonprofit theatre as assistantproduction manager of the EXIT Theatre.Moving to Austin was a rough adjustmentfor Bedard; paid jobs making theatre arealmost nonexistent, and his first attemptsat finding work as an actor were less thaninspiring. “I just didn’t have time to get intoit,” he says. “I had done one audition, and Igot to do four sentences and was cut.”Bedard’s fortunes turned in 2005 when, atReilly’s urging, he joined a team in theArtSpark theatre competition. His teamrehearsed next to Snider’s, and the twobegan a friendship that led to the formationof Cambiare. “I met Will, learned that Iliked devising theatre, and started readingtheatre blogs, all in the same week,” hesays. “That was a pretty good week.”That week led to a new focus for Bedard.It’s a focus he’ll need to maintain. Aftereight years in Austin – the last two of whichsaw him involved in 10 plays, as either anactor or a producer – he’s preparing to pullup stakes again, as Reilly has begun asearch for a full-time teaching position thatincludes colleges outside of Texas.“Everything’s going great,” he laughs. “I’vebeen in production for two years, so ofcourse we’re looking for new places to be.”While there’s no firm timetable for theirdeparture, Bedard is confident that his wifewill find the sort of job she’s looking for.And while there’s a certain sad irony to thefact that someone who spent much of thepast several years simply talking about theatreis preparing to leave town just as he’sgathered momentum to make work himself,there’s also an opportunity. Because the factthat Bedard’s reputation outside of Austinexceeds the influence he wields within thecity isn’t for lack of trying.Bedard has approached directors fromyoung companies like Palindrome Theatre,Hidden Room, Capital T, and Poison AppleInitiative with scripts from young playwrightshe’s found working nationally and28 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m

says, “I can’t get anyone to open the file.”For someone whose passion for theatreincludes bridging the limited resources ofhis own community with the knowledgebase of theatremakers around the world,the fact that Bedard has the ear of RoccoLandesman but not the artistic directors oflocal companies must be frustrating, right?“It’s frustrating as hell,” Bedard sighs.“Without resources, you need knowledge.The only way to make whatever resourcesyou have go farther is knowledge. And I canhelp connect you with people who are doingthis everywhere. If you start connecting people,and you start energizing them – if folksstart feeling like this when they’re at rehearsal,you get better theatre with no moreresources. But there isn’t interest in that.That’s why I’m frustrated. I’m saying, ‘Look,I will read the entire Internet. Here are thethings that don’t suck. Just read these.’”It’s clear that Bedard loves Austin theatre,but he admits that there may be moreopportunities for someone with his reputationas a thinker and advocate elsewhere.He stops short of enthusiasm when talkingabout it, but certainly sounds intrigued. “Ithink a new place will look at all of that as apart of my résumé in a way that Austin justdoesn’t care about,” he says. “And there arejobs there. I can get a job at a theatre in a litdepartment or as an assistant AD. Thosejobs don’t exist here.”In the time Bedard has left in Austin, he’scommitted himself to acting in plays likeQuills and to experiments that put his principlesin action, like “All About a Boy” – aplay that Bedard found online by a risingyoung New York playwright who’s activelypursuing productions of her work here.It’s good that Bedard is doing that now,but it’s also fair to ask if that’s the path heshould have been on all along. Valid thoughit is to lament the fact that people in Austinrarely tap into the national theatre communitywhen they’re making their work, it’scertainly also valid to ask why Bedardhasn’t done that himself in making his.“My problem is that I’m guilty of that,”Bedard admits. “I’ve had access to the bestnew plays in the country for the past fiveyears, and we don’t do them.”As long as he’s around – which may be sixmonths, a year, or longer – Bedard is determinedto acquit himself of that guilt. “‘AllAbout a Boy’ is absolutely about [puttingmy ideas into action],” he says. “If at theend of the year, Megan hasn’t found a place,this ends up with me supporting these greatnew playwrights that this town hasn’t seenyet. Full productions or workshops, that’swhat excites me right now – doing versetheatre for myself as a performer and evangelizingfor these great things.”Ultimately, it may have taken the promiseof leaving town to turn Bedard into thesort of Austin theatremaker that he’s beenwaiting for someone to become. But at least,finally, he’s bringing the conversation out ofthe Internet and onto the stage.nFREE admission, extended hours, and special programmingFree admission every Thursday is made possible by The Moody Foundation.January 17 | 5–9pm6pm Special Lecture with Stephen GrittDon’t miss a special evening with Stephen Gritt, internationally recognized conservatorfrom the National Gallery of Canada.

THE ARTS reviewsEXHIBITIONISMInvisible, Inc.Rollins Studio Theatre at the Long Center,701 W. Riverside,www.hiddenroomtheatre.comThrough Jan. 20Running time: 1 hr., 30 min.The most important part of a magic trick isthe finish. You can dazzle ’em with showmanship,but if the final reveal doesn’t deliver, thetrick falls flat. Beth Burns, director of HiddenRoom Theatre’s Invisible, Inc. – the worldpremiere of a new script by playwright PaulMenzer – seems very conscious of this fact.The play is an exercise in stakes-raising, teasingout its plot elements slowly and lettingthe story unfold at a deliberate pace. It balancesthe setup/punch line style repartee ofa screwball comedy with onstage magic tricksand moments of real gravity as it unfolds itsnoir mystery. And when it comes time for thebig reveal, it pays off the premise. Voila!Invisible, Inc. is the name both of the playand the magician’s troupe the play follows.Led by Sebastian Topflyte (Robert Matney),Invisible, Inc.’s team of tricksters – comprisedof the behind-the-scenes Doc Isoceles (ToddKassens) and Question Mark (LondonerLaurence Pears, returning to the Austin stageafter a show-stealing appearance in HiddenRoom’s Rose Rage), and Topflyte’s stage assistant,Ladyfingers (Liz Fisher) – are the hottestthing in Prohibition-era New York stage magic.That doesn’t sit well with aspiring magicianCord McCade (Joseph Garlock), whose downtown,undershirt-and-blue-jeans approach tostagecraft offers a more visceral take on theillusory arts than Topflyte’s tux, top hat, andtails. When a detective stops by the Invisible,Inc. office to inform Topflyte that his niece hasdisappeared at McCade’s show, the conflictbetween the two stops being one-sided. Themagicians square off against each other asTopflyte’s team seeks the girl, and McCadeattempts to turn Ladyfingers to his own side.The play puts a significant load on theshoulders of Matney, who has to be by turnsPrestidigitation agitation: robert Matney(l) and Joseph Garlock as the feudingmagicians in Invisible, Inc.oafish and self-obsessed, capable of sellingnuanced drama, and able to pull off actualstage magic for an up-close audience, buthe’s more than up to the challenge. With somuch plot and trickery to get through, thereisn’t much time for character moments – andMatney gets the best of those – but Garlockdeserves mention for the intensity he bringsto McCade, balancing a palpable menacewith a performer’s charm, while Fisher’seasy chemistry with her male co-starsmakes her compelling.Ultimately, though, Invisible, Inc. is morethan just a well-acted performance of a tightlyplotted mystery, and this is where Burnsdistinguishes herself: It’s both a play aboutmagic and a performance of magic. Thatgoes beyond Matney and Garlock’s tricks,which are impressive on their own: The entireproduction is built around little pieces ofmagic – from the music provided by the playerpiano (reproducing a performance by GrahamReynolds) to the actual, onstage gunshots –and culminates in a reveal that pays off themystery the play has set up, just the way agood trick must. Voila. – Dan SolomonC o u r t e s y o f D a n i e l B r o C kC o u r t e s y o f t h e V o r t e xElizabeth: Heart of a KingThe Vortex, 2307 Manor Rd., 478-5282www.vortexrep.orgThrough Jan. 26Running time: 2 hr., 30 min.To the editors of the Wikipedia page“Cultural depictions of Queen Elizabeth Iof England”: Please add three more starsto the firmament that boasts such twinklersas Sarah Bernhardt, Bette Davis,and Judi Dench. Elizabeth may have livedover four centuries ago, but that fiery redheadis excellently revived this month withpowerful performances from the threevirgin queens of Lorella Loftus’ ambitiousnew bio-play, Elizabeth: Heart of a King.Drawing from the robust Tudor historicalfiction genre, the play is a life-sizedtriptych that features Angela Loftus (theplaywright’s daughter) as Lady Elizabeth;Lorella Loftus as middle-aged ElizabethRegina; and Jennifer Underwood asGloriana, her majesty in the winter years.Loftus uses short vignettes to chart aThe three faces of e.: (l-r) Angela Loftus, Lorella Loftus,and Jennifer Underwoodcourse through Elizabeth’s life, mostlyfocusing on (and imagining details about)the old maid’s fraught love affairs, thoughthe audience is also treated to a buffet ofcharacters courtesy of the flexible ensemblecast, including papa Henry VIII, MarysTudor and Queen of Scots, and advisorWilliam Cecil. Individually, the scenes aretight and engaging, but they eventuallyfeel like dots in a pointillist painting thatnever quite comes into focus; without amajor dramatic arc, the play quickly losesforward momentum.Eight actors, most of whom are seatedonstage, play all the characters who driftthrough Elizabeth’s life, through doublingnot unlike what the queen might haveseen onstage in her day. (Nikki Zookmakes a particularly stunning turn as bothMarys.) Director Karen Jambon uses theVortex’s small stage effectively, but inconsistenciesin the actors’ accents occasionallycreate disruptive moments.For an Elizabethan period drama, thedesign is remarkably stark; you won’tfind lace ruffs or gold leaf facades here.Ann Marie Gordon’s simple set andPam Fletcher Friday’s monochromaticcostumes create a blank slate for thevignettes. The versatile cast, PatrickAnthony’s moody lighting, and a few wellplacedaccessories are all we need toimagine the court’s pomp. Though DavidDeMaris’ Renaissance music adds to theillusion, his video design –images of Elizabeth, rosegardens, and Tudor architecture– is distracting.But Elizabeth’s greateststrength lies in theactresses who share thetitular role. Each bringssomething different to thepart, dramatizing the evolutionwe all experience aswe age. The younger Loftus’pre-coronation Elizabeth issweet and vulnerable, butreveals her stubbornnessin raging soliloquies; theelder Loftus, as charismatic queen, isat one moment cheerful, then instantlyirate; and Underwood carefully descendsfrom headstrong monarch to tired oldwoman. The Elizabeths are united under arecurring quandary: Is it possible to be awoman and a queen? Though she “earnsher place among the glorious” in the end,it seems that Elizabeth ranked the love ofher people over the love of men.– Jillian OwensYefimBronfmanC o u r t e s y o f D a r i o a C o s t aAustin SymphonyOrchestra WithYefim BronfmanRollins Studio Theatre atthe Long Center, 701 W. RiversideJan. 11When you’re going to venture intoa land of wide-ranging and rigorousterrain, you want to be withsomeone who knows the territory.Johannes Brahms’ Piano ConcertoNo. 1, though written when thecomposer was still in his early 20sand feeling his way through symphoniccomposition, is an expansivecountry in which you traversedense rain forests, placid lakes,vast savannas, rocky coastlinespounded by surf, river valleys, sierras,snowfields, and much more– so much, in fact, that it’s easy toget lost in it. But with the estimableYefim Bronfman at the keyboard,you not only know where you areevery step of the way, you canappreciate in full each sweepinglandscape and panoramic vista.Bronfman is like the guide whohas traveled so extensively througha region that he knows every inchintimately, as he demonstratedto the crowd’s delight during hisperformance of the concerto withthe Austin Symphony last week. Inevery moment of every movement,every shift in the drama – and ohmy, is there ever a wealth of dramapacked into this piece – Bronfmandisplayed a masterful command ofthe material: famously pummelingthe keys in the first movement’sstormiest flashes, then lightlydancing his way across them in itsjubilant runs and crisply executingits exacting trills; sounding outwith deep sensitivity and delicacythe reflective Adagio; and bringinga resolute vigor to the ever-morechallenging Rondo that seemed togather more energy and purposewith each new demand from thescore. While the work leaves ampleroom for bluster and romantic sentimentality,Bronfman never so muchas glanced in that direction. Hisplaying was certainly forceful andemotional, but it was measured,carefully calibrated to the music,coming from a place of clear-eyedcomprehension rather than recklesspassion or artistic self-indulgence.On the podium, ASO conductorPeter Bay led the orchestra withcomparable restraint. He had hisensemble play the intimate travelingcompanion to Bronfman’s piano,sometimes chiding it, sometimessoothing it, raising its voice in dissensionor assent, quietly grumblingin the background or offering tendersupport, always with fullness offeeling but never more or less thanexpressed by the soloist. Their partnershipwas held in admirable balance,each playing off of and feedingthe other. Together, Bronfmanand ASO provided a spirited, exhilaratingtour of what seemed like halfthe globe. – Robert Faires30 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m

I notedthat the party was near Enfield, and thatimmediately made me think of my dearfriend Stephen Rice who also lives nearthere. So I forwarded the invite to Stephen,who responded immediately, telling me theparty was for Gary Schumann, president ofthe Austin LGBT Bar Association, whowas turning 50. Embarrassingly (and asusual), I had no clue whether I’d ever metGary before, but the location on its own toldme that it would be a pretty swank party.Jacki Oh and I dressed to kill, of course,and arrived very fashionably late, but theparty was still swinging. The house itselfwas faaabulous. Formerly the servant’squarters for the Pease mansion, Gary’shouse had been essentially stripped of itsfurniture, and the rooms reimagined as artgalleries, conversation nooks, a speakeasycalled Tiny’s (which was indeed tiny andlocated down this labyrinthine stairway inthe basement), and yes, even acomplete disco with a great DJfrom Dallas, lasers, fogmachines, and lot of camaraderie.Even I was luredonto the dance floor.Me?

Cancel the monthlypayment on that shiny new gym membership and reinstate sugarinto your diet posthaste, because there are some damn fine treatsto be had in this town, and Angel Donuts & Treats has upped theante on indulgence.Open since late summer, Angel Donuts is a family affair, startedby two UT-alum brothers and their spouses (one of whom, Angela, isa friendly, patient presence behind the counter) who decided to turntheir baking hobby into a legitimate business. Located in the burgeoningTrails shopping center on 620, Angel Donuts offers a sweet,locally owned counterpoint to the cluster of fast-food chains populatingthe immediate area.While the shop’s title suggests that the showcase sweet here isdoughnuts, apart from a serviceable glazed old-fashioned (85 cents)that is appropriately crisp and light, and a maple bacon donut($1.75 and undoubtedly an homage to Portland’s iconic VoodooDoughnut) that effectively balances those very strong flavors, thereal winners here are the cake balls ($2.25 each). The display caseis a dizzying array of simply but elegantly decorated globes in flavorsboth traditional (chocolate, red velvet, carrot) and adventurous (chai,s’mores, chocolate orange). My personal favorite is the chai, subtlyspiced and not too sweet, the vanilla coverture cracking pleasantlyDuckhorn WinesThirteen years ago, in one of my firstarticles for The Austin Chronicle, I hadthe opportunity to taste through severalwine and food combinations withDanielle Smith, director of food and beveragefor the Four Seasons.

There are two maindifferences between the Duckhorn andthe Decoy. The Duckhorn blends someSémillon into the mix, and its fruit is fromNapa. The Decoy is 100% SauvignonBlanc, and the fruit comes from SonomaCounty. Duckhorn’s version tastes likewhite Bordeaux on steroids, while theDecoy tastes like a near perfect versionof Californian Sauvignon Blanc.Of course, Duckhorn’s fame comesfrom its napa Merlots.

Wood@ACFoodI finished last week with a serious case of culinarywhiplash, ricocheting from one vital part ofour diverse scene to another. First, I was a guestat one of the four Indie Chefs dinners Thurs dayat Foreign & Domestic. It was fascinating towatch a group of talented young people take astep beyond the “virtual camaraderie” they developedvia Twitter and become a cohesive unit, puttingout eight very different courses and styles offood. Each chef introduced his or her own course,and the open kitchen and small dining roommade the dinner guests feel very much a part ofthe action. It was a much more immediate andsatisfying experience than sitting in a tent, watchinga Food Network celebrity prepare a dish noone will ever taste, and I’m pleased the Elliottsand their fellow sponsors plan to make IndieChefs Week an annual event. Look for more ofmy reaction to that dinner and some inside infoabout what some of the chefs did while they werein Austin in our On the Range blog.No sooner had I recovered from the tastingmenu marathon than I found myself in a longconversation with radio personality and restaurateurBob Cole. Readers had been emailing meabout Cole all week, and we finally got to chaton Friday. Earlier in the week, Cole told his earlymorning KOKE-FM listeners that he had justused the last $18,000 of his savings to coverpayroll at Hill’s Cafe, and he had serious concernsabout the future of the iconic South Austineatery (4700 S. Congress). The news was allover social media by the end of the day, andCole said he was gratified and humbled by theoutpouring of public support, which translatedinto some increased business at the restaurant.However, our conversation revealed problems afew extra customers may not be able to solve.For those who aren’t familiar with Hill’s, the businessdates back to 1947, when a 20-seat coffeeshop was built to serve the customers at theGoodnight Motel. Over the years, the Good nightfamily expanded the business, and by the timeCole took over in 2001, it was an aging buildingwith dining and kitchen facilities that couldaccommodate 500 people. That’s an enormousamount of space to heat and cool; Cole saysthe utilities alone run about $10,000 a month.And though the parking lot is often full, whenyou’ve got cooking and dining space for 500,and you’re rarely feeding that many, it’s tough tobe profitable. Cole said Hill’s had always been alabor of love that didn’t really make any money,but the economic downturn and changing tasteshave had it running in the red for too long now.Cole said he’d love to keep the place open andbuild up the special event and catering parts ofthe business in order to maximize the potential.He also said he’s in conversation with a localrestaurant group that has shown an interest inthe property in the past. I’ll admit, I hadn’t eatenat Hill’s Cafe in years and really had no ideawhat to expect when I dropped by Saturday. I’mpleased to report the food is perfectly respectable– not cutting-edge trendy, but well prepared,flavorful, and reasonably priced. Find out moreabout that on our blog as well. And for all thosefolks who loudly lament the loss of iconic, quintessentiallyAustin places, get on down to Hill’s.a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m JANUARY 18, 2013 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E 35

FOODMike Erickson (in white jacket) with students in his culinary class at Connally High SchoolPie-o-Neers for PeacePeace Through Pie initiative going forwardone school at a timeBy VirgiN ia B. WOOdWhen we first wrote about art instructorLuanne Stovall’s Dream Pie social initiativein connection with Martin Luther King Jr.Day, there was no way to know how, or evenwhether, an actual movement might takeshape. After all, Stovall began with thehumble concept of attaching a food traditionto the holiday, serving up pies whoseround shape and diverse fillings signifiedinclusion to friends in her own apartment.After her move to Austin, Stovall was determinedto expand her concept and co-hostedAustin’s first Dream Pie Social at the historicSweet Home Missionary BaptistChurch in the Clarksville neighborhood inJanuary of 2009. The Rev. Steve Manningwelcomed guests to the church’s fellowshiphall, where school children recited Dr.King’s immortal “I Have a Dream” speech.Guests were encouraged to share their personalpie memories at an oral history booth,and a silent auction of donated pies raisedmoney for a much-needed handicappedaccess ramp for the old church. There havesince been a couple of pie socials as part ofthe festivities after the MLK Day March,j o h n a n d e r s o nConnally Highsenior JaleunFoster holds thetimpano inspiredby the italian partof his heritage.and Sweet Home Baptist Church continuesto hold pie socials before the King holidayevery January, as do some other churches(see calendar). Stovall’s movement, however,has a somewhat new direction and focussince receiving official 501(c)(3) nonprofitstatus in 2012.What was initially known as ServeaDream.org is now PeaceThroughPie.org, and Stovallreports that the focus is on “cultivatingPie-o-Neers for Peace, a program dedicatedto schools and youth groups, aligned withthe Anti-Defamation League’s No Place forHate pro gram, providing curriculum toparticipating school campuses.” Indeed,the new program kicked off in January2012 when the Travis High School Instituteof Hos pi tal ity and Culinary Arts hosted aPie-o-Neers for Peace pie social with thestudents from Connally High School’s culinaryprogram as their guests. This year,both culinary programs are hosting theirown pie socials as activities that help theirschools qualify as official “No Place forHate” campuses, inviting their parents andfellow students to a community gatheringaround pie. Here’s what we know abouttheir plans.John B. Connally High School13212 N. LamarFriday, Jan. 18, 6-7pmwww.pflugervilleisd.net/CHSThis social is a districtwide No Place forHate activity, so chef instructor Mike Erickson’sstudents, Connally’s nutrition students,and the kids who work in Connally’sCougars Catering spent more than a weekmaking pies in anticipation of hosting 500people at the school cafeteria. Students,teachers, parents, and members of the communityare invited to bring pies and/orcontribute pie recipes to a community cookbookthat will raise funds for the culinaryprogram. There will be musical entertainmentand an oral history booth.Because there are 30 different ethnicgroups represented in Connally’s studentbody, chef Erickson made sure his pie curriculumfocused on all of the diverse dishesthat can be considered pie – be that a classicbanana cream pie, an empanada, a samosa,a pastelito, or a pizza. “Last year, one of ourstudents whose parents are from Italy madea timpano and just knocked everyone out,[it] really expanded their ideas about what apie can be.

FOOD reviewsMelvin’s Deli Comfort501 E. 53rd, 705-3906Mon.-Fri., 11am-2pm, or laterwww.melvinsdelicomfort.comThere is no Melvin. The name is like thefamous blended words referenced byHumpty Dumpty when talking to Alice: “Yousee, it’s like a portmanteau – there are twomeanings packed into one word.” The nameoriginated when chums of Melinda andKevin Ennis decided that they should henceforthbe known collectively as Melvin – thinkspork, Desilu, or brunch. It works; togetherthey morph into the singular Melvin, aslightly off-kilter couple that excels at makingsome of Austin’s best sandwiches.Melinda is an insurance adjuster whoaccumulated enough money to start thebusiness that they had talked about openingfor years. Kevin earned his chops as alongtime manager/chef at a seafood restaurantin Alaska, where self-sufficiency isparamount; he had entertained friends andfamily with his culinary skills for years. Ahistory major, Kevin was devoted to producingauthentic sandwich meats, carefullyresearching, experimenting, and testingeach product. “Sandwiches was the onegenre that we couldn’t eat out at a restaurant.Hardly anyone here makes their ownmeats; they buy them from a supplier,” saysMelinda. “We wanted to change that.”Their pride and joy, Melvin’s Deli Comfort,is situated in a gleaming red trailer on thesoutheast corner of 53rd and Duval. A coupleof picnic tables sit under a huge pecantree, and groovy tunes play on the soundsystem. Open for a little over a month, businessis slowly building, and all reports havebeen glowing.While I sat and waited for Chronicle photographerJohn Anderson to show up, I wastortured by the smell of housemade applewood-smokedbacon wafting from inside(think Homer drool). We ordered strategicallyso that we could try all of the meats,which Kevin and sidekick cook Eddie producein-house; they make all of their productsexcept the sauerkraut and the bread.Our first sandwich was a Hot ItalianBeef ($8): a big stack of thin slices of tenderroast beef (Choice, Black Angus) warmed injus, with sautéed green peppers, gooey provolone,and spicy pepper giardiniera, on acrunchy sub roll; riding shotgun is a tub ofrich, garlicky jus for dipping. Every aspectof the sub was spot-on; this could competewith the elite in Chicago. Next came thepastrami Reuben ($9), a massive mound offlavorful pastrami on grilled rye, withRussian dressing, kraut, and melty Swiss.Sorry, Spec’s Deli; your wonderful Reubenjust got blown completely out of the waterby Melvin.The Daily Special, a Turkey BLT ($8),arrived next. Excellent white bread encaseda mountain of sliced turkey, with ripe heirloomtomato, Swiss, lettuce, aioli, and amazinglygood smoked bacon. “We rub, age, andthen smoke the bellies over applewood,”says Kevin. “It’s great bacon.” Last was theCroque Monsieur ($9), the world’s bestgrilled cheese, filled with sweet, homemader.O.’s Outpostp h o t o s b y j o h n a n d e r s o nham, gruyère, and house mustard, all coveredwith a molten blanket of gruyère andbéchamel sauce. It’s messy, but delicious.Mel also brought me a taste of their wonderfulcorned beef, which melts in your mouth.The only thing they didn’t have that daywas the pork belly confit. “I take trimmedbellies and poach them in pig fat for 10hours,” says Kevin. “Then we slice and grillit and pair it with mustard greens and brie.”It’s Homer time again; I will return for thatluscious sparkling jewel.All of their sandwiches come with excellent,crispy, garlicky home-cured picklesand crispy housemade potato chips, madefrom new potatoes. “We have the pickles andchips dialed in now,” says Melinda. “Peoplelove them.” I know we loved them, andeverything else we ate at Melvin’s. Ingredientsare of the highest quality, quantities arelarge, service is friendly, prices are very reasonable,and the flavors are outstanding.This is how a sandwich should be made.– Mick VannRecently RevieweDChina Dynasty offers all of your family’s favorites ataffordable prices, without MSG.

40 divya srinivasan 56 film listings@ACScreensFurther r e A ding ‘TheRevoluT ion Was Televised’The sitcom isn't the only television artform to undergo a seismic shift in the lasttwo decades. TV critic Alan Sepinwall examinesthe so-called “millennial dramas” in hisself-published The Revolution Was Televised:The Cops, Crooks, Slingers and Slayers WhoChanged TV Drama Forever. Careful TVwatchers already know the impact of HBO’sOz and The Sopranos and their trickle-downeffect on AMC, FX, and even the occasionalnetwork (NBC’s Friday Night Lights); whereSepinwall’s 12-case study really distinguishesitself is in the many revealing interviews with the major playersbehind the TV drama revolution.– Kimberley JonesGoodbye to This Millennium’sMust-See TVHow ‘30 Rock’ ResHaped tHe sitcom foR tHe digital ageby Aleksander ChanThere was a blink-and-you-miss-it moment in 30 Rock’s secondseason that made it obvious Tina Fey’s show about ashow had become a millennial-age banner bearer. It’s amoment so tossed off as to seem inconsequential, and yet:It announced that 30 Rock is – and soon to be was, when theshow goes off-air Jan. 31 – a comedy made from and for theInternet age.It was in the season’s second episode, “Jack Gets in theGame.” Tracy (Tracy Morgan), the outré star of fictional sketchprogram The Girlie Show, has just been thrown out by his wife.As he recounts memorabilia collected throughout his career,the show lends immortal potency to an ephemeral detail:Tracy: “This is my key to the city of Gary, Indiana! … Andmy gold record from [my] novelty party song.”Cut to Tracy, dressed in a haphazard werewolf costume,shown singing and performing the song “Werewolf BarMitzvah” in a cheap, “Thriller”-like Halloween video: “WerewolfBar Mitzvah! Spoo-ky! Scare-y! Boys becomin’ men ... menbecomin’ wolves.”It was a mere seconds-long cutaway – long enough foryour senses to register its creative genius, but brief enoughthat if you looked down at your phone, you missed it. 30Rock, which debuted in 2006, produced so many bitsprimed for YouTube immortality, where the show’s archhumor could live intact online, in isolation and removed fromcontext. In that moment – among so many rapid-fire nonsequiturs, pop culture callouts, and general Simpsons-ianmania – you didn’t need to know what episode “WerewolfBar Mitzvah” was from, or even that you were watching 30Rock, for it to register as funny.30 Rock – and really all of NBC’s rotating lineup of criticallylauded but often lousily rated sitcoms, which includes TheOffice (also signing off this year), Community (its prospectsdimming after showrunner Dan Harmon’s ousting), and Parksand Recreation – rose mightily to the challenge of making episodicTV in an era where the Web has made every facet ofentertainment episodic. Because online, everything is in bitsand pieces: on one site, but not the other; fabulous on itsown, and even better together.These shows became comedies of the Internet’s deconstruction,easily disassembled into their defining catchphrases:“Blurgh.” “That’s what she said.” “Treat yo self.” “Darkesttimeline.” But there’s an Internet-era complexity to thisdeconstruction: Each of those individual zingers, memes, andviral moments, their individual ingredients, work completelyon their own and as assembled by their creators. Just as aWeb page is made up of its individual bits of code, an episodeof 30 Rock could play like YouTube clips sequencedtogether by Tina Fey.30 Rock also stood out because its movements mimickedthe constant, speedy clip of the Web. Seconds after Tracy’s“Werewolf Bar Mitzvah” interlude is another, different aside.And then another one. And after that, more still – for a full 22minutes, it’s a continuous succession of punchlines, visualgags, and perfect retorts. While we may be living in a goldenage of television drama, for a time no other shows were ableto understand and reflect the high-speed Internet generation’ssense of humor in as fundamental a way. (New showslike Happy Endings, Don’t Trust the Bitch in Apartment 23,Raising Hope, and New Girl have since expanded the field.)30 Rock and its NBC brethren not only riffed on the goofy,pop culture heavy nature of the Web, they did it by replicatingthe way it works – meta, in the funniest way.nJogging Toward MarchsXsw film announces opening nigHt film,teXas film Hall of fame picks 2013 inducteesOn Tuesday, the South by Southwest FilmFestival announced The Incredible BurtWonderstone (pictured) as its 2013 opening-nightfilm.

She illustrated a nine-minutesegment of Richard Linklater’s WakingLife; she’s done a series of animated videos forThey Might Be Giants, a steady stream ofillustrations for The New Yorker; she createdthe award-winning wraparound artwork forSufjan Stevens’ Illinois album; she –But let’s not just scroll out the industryrap sheet that ends with her current success,the children’s book called Little Owl’sNight. Let’s talk to the author and videomaker– whose second illustrated book forkids, Octopus Alone, will be out from Vikingthis spring – let’s talk to the artist herselfand find out how she got into the business,the whole drawing-for-a-living career, andwhat that’s been like.40 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o mStill from theOctopus Project’s“I Saw the brightShinies” videoFor links to video and to seemore of Srinivisan’s work, go toaustinchronicle.com/screens.We’re sitting at a table outside ThunderbirdCoffee on Manor Road. It’s cold – too coldfor Texas, damn it – but there’s only an occasionalbreeze, not enough wind to amplifythe chill, and the sun is bright up there inthe unclouded blue. Srinivasan is smilinguncertainly, her pretty face framed on bothsides by shoulder-length hair like tricklingliquid licorice. She’s not comfortable, notreally, with being interviewed, but she’sgenerous with her words.“I was always drawing in college,” shesays. “I had a comic strip called ‘SexuallyRepressed Girl,’ and I did that for a fewyears. And I made some ugly paintings inthe Nineties, like people do in college, whenyou’re more bold and you can put things upand not care. Or, I don’t know, maybe you’renot so self-conscious about it then. But,yeah, I always liked to make stuff on myown. I didn’t take art classes – I was alwaysintimidated by taking a class. Having peoplelook at your stuff and critique it? Forbetter of worse, I didn’t want to do that.”After graduating from UT in ’95,Srinivasan got a job with AndersenJ o h n A n d e r s o nConsulting in San Francisco. Which doesn’tsound … precisely artistic?“I really wanted to get to San Francisco,because CD-ROMs were being made thereby Electronic Arts – with a lot of activities,like what apps are now? Back then I wantedto do that, so I thought, if I can just get toSan Francisco, I can wiggle my way intodoing animation and things like that. But Iwasn’t able to do that at Andersen. I hung onfor a year there and then took six months todo a kids’ book idea that I had.” She shakesher head, black hair shifting, and lets out asmall self-deprecating chuckle. “Knowingwhat I know now, I see the problems with it.But I tried, because doing stuff for kids,that’s appealing to me. But nothing happenedwith that, and I needed money, so Istarted working for a web design firm – thiswas in ’97 – for about a year.”And is that where Srinivasan learned themultimedia skills she’s used in her personaland high-profile projects?“In college, my friend and I would doindependent study, like how to usePhotoshop and Macromedia Director – heh,that was pretty horrible – but we learned alot from that. And when I was working atthe Web design firm, I wasn’t a designer. Igot the low-person-on-the-totem-pole positiondoing production art. So I did learn howto make Web pages and how to make graphicsfor online projects. And then in ’98,Flash came on the scene, and my boss waslike, ‘OK, you’re gonna be the person incharge of learningFlash.’ And that wasbefore it was program-heavy.And Ilove that, and that’swhen I got to domore animation –and that’s when Iwent freelance.”And two yearslater, SrinivasanDivya Srinivasan moved back toAustin. Because ofWaking Life. Well, really because of hersister and Waking Life.“My sister had come to visit me,” sheexplains, “and on her flight back to Austin,she ended up talking to somebody who wasan animator on Waking Life. And when shelanded, she called me and was like, ‘Youshould come back now, because they’re stillhiring for Waking Life.’ And I was kind oftired of being in San Francisco. I was not ina great place then, out there, and I was freelanceanyway … so I got back to Austin, andI met with [software designer] Bob Sabistonand started working on Waking Life.” Shelaughs. “It’s funny to me that I had to comeback to Austin to work on animation. I wasalways interested but nervous to take anRTF [radio/television/film] class in college.I was kind of intimidated, because the guyswho were in it always seemed so confident,and I didn’t understand how someone couldbe that confident.”So the Linklater film was a good move?Srinivasan nods. “And my style in WakingLife is so different than the others, it’s morestylized and not realistic. I think my experiencewith the film was perfect – because mystyle showed through. That’s kind of adream, and it doesn’t happen too often inanimation. I wouldn’t have liked to have followedsomeone else’s style guide. And thenBob said I could use his software for otherprojects. And I did a video – my sister and Idid. We shot on 35mm film, but the video wasall stills, for “Record Player Party” by theCrack Pipes. It was the document of a houseparty in December of 2001 in Hyde Park.”In 2004, Srinivasan moved to Chicago.“I was kind of in a rut in Austin. And Iwork from home, so for a change of scene Iwent to Chicago. And it was really good timing,because as I was moving there, I got acall from John Flansburgh of They MightBe Giants. He said, ‘Hey, we’re making achildren’s DVD and wanna know if you’ll doa few videos for us?’ And that was kind of adream, because I’d been wanting to do stufffor kids and wanting to do animation. Andit was surreal to be called by him. I felt likeI couldn’t listen to certain They Might BeGiants songs because I listened to them toomuch in high school. One of my friendswould always be calling their song line inhigh school, Dial-a-Song. I don’t know, itwas just nuts to have him call me. And Ithink that’s how Weird Al saw my stuff, andone thing led to another – in weird ways.”That’s “Weird Al” Yankovic, of course, forwhom Srinivasan did the video of “SkipperDan.” And then, we assume, that led todoing the artwork for Sufjan Stevens’Illinois project?“No, that was because of The New Yorker,”says Srinivasan. “It was real lucky, becauseI hadn’t heard of him, but I got assigned todo an illustration of Sufjan. And then hesaw it. And he was looking for someone todo the artwork for Illinois – he was recordingit around then – and he asked me if I’ddo it. And it was while I was living inChicago, too, so I felt like, ‘Yeah! My littletime in Illinois, I get to work on this album!’... So that was neat. And, from that, I endedup doing the artwork for This AmericanLife, their Greatest Hits, Volume Three.”Srinivasan grins, perhaps just a lumenless brightly than the winter sun. “I’ve beenmeeting so many super-nice people who Ireally admire – people who are so nice thatyou almost feel they’re making fun of you.But they’re not – I don’t think – they justhappen to be really nice people.”And now the artist’s back in Austin – “It’smy home base,” she says – and doing booksfor children.“I like doing the kids’ books,” she says.“And that’s good – because it is what I’m workingon for the next couple of years. OctopusAlone comes out on May 8, and then next yearthere’s another book, and the next year anotherbook. And right now I’m working on an app,a game app for Little Owl’s Night. I’m doingall the artwork and animation and design andall that – and producing it. But first I have tomake the book trailer for Octopus!”It’s an industrious thing, this waking lifeof Srinivasan’s, where getting a phone callfrom Ira Glass while shopping in Targetisn’t part of some crazy dream: It’s justanother episode of business as usual. n

It’s exciting, and then it’s over,and you’re like, ‘Man, I want to do that again!’” Atthe host’s request, Hubbard performed “MotherBlues” off last year’s The Grifter’s Hymnal. The talkingblues, which was shortened to fit the program,describes how his superficial desires for a strippergirlfriend and a Les Paul Goldtop guitar led him to afulfilling family life. The epic story song resolved intoheartwarming gratitude, with Hubbard giving thanksto Letterman for having him on the show, and to hisson Lucas for playing lead guitar on a handed-downLes Paul Goldtop. It was a hilarious, touching, andenergetic performance that probably boosted“Mother Blues” stock as a fan favorite. In a raremove, Letterman asked the local and his band tostick around and play another request, “Screw You,We’re From Texas,” which they obliged.

MUSICOn a balmy and clear December Tuesday,Dana Wheeler-Nicholson makes herselfcomfortable in a patio chair at the HotelSan Jose. Even off the red carpet and outof the glare of stage lights and cameras,she’s striking.At 52, the actress retains a thick mane ofbuttery curls framing the regal bone structurefamously remembered opposite ChevyChase in Fletch and Kurt Russell inTombstone. Austin’s Richard Linklater casther in 2006’s Fast Food Nation. Five yearslater, she starred in two South by SouthwestFilm Festival premieres, 5 Time Championand Blacktino, while wrapping the finalseason of her role on the beloved FridayNight Lights.Wheeler-Nicholson considers herselflucky to have won her role on the late,lamented TV series. As an Austin resident,she commutes to the coasts for auditionsand acting, recently completing a filmOtherPeople’sSongsDana Wheeler-Nicholson’s night jobBy Margaret Moserdirected by her husband Alex Smith,Winter in the Blood, as well as anotherupcoming feature titled When Angels Sing,starring Harry Connick Jr., Lyle Lovett,and FNL castmate Connie Britton. She’salso taught acting classes for the AustinFilm Society.Living here also stirred another muse. Apassion deeply rooted in her New Yorkupbringing. One landing her slots at theContinental Club Gallery last year, and amonthly residency beginning now at theSahara Lounge.Two Degrees From ObamaSan Jose owner Liz Lambert strolls outon the patio. She greets the actress warmlyand they chatter about Mexico, whereLambert’s doing interiors for a hotel southof Cabo San Lucas. Wheeler-Nicholson’sjust back from New Orleans. The two metthrough Alex Smith eight years ago.T o d d V . W o l f s o nAt that time, Smith taught screenwritingand directing at UT. Once his future wifebegan visiting him here regularly, she –like so many before her – fell hard for thelocal charms.“People fall in love with Austin and theybuy houses,” she quips.She brushes some hair from her eyes asLambert blinks back the sun streamingdown into the serene landscaping.“Did you see RP on Letterman?,” Wheeler-Nicholson asks her, using local code forrecent Austin resident Robert Plant.“Patty [Griffin] said it wasn’t airing untilthe 6th!”“It was last night. Someone sent mea clip.”Lambert laughs, countering with, “TheKennedy Center thing isn’t on yet. Pattysaid she got kissed by Obama.”“That makes us two degrees fromObama!” exclaims her friend.Given her big and small screen allure,including stints on Sex and the City, Law &Order, and Seinfeld, it’s not hard imaginingWheeler-Nicholson singing one of herfavored jazz standards to the president likeanother screen gem.“In New York, the rooms I was playinglent themselves to those songs,” she says.“The material chosen included a lot moreballads and moodier things becausethey were listening rooms, jazz rooms.Alex keeps saying the music is so beautifuland romantic because it’s from anotherera.“At the Continental Gallery, we found thatcouples were coming to enjoy the music.That people were gettingdressed up and coming outin the middle of the weektogether to listen to songs.It was lovely!“I grew up listening tosingers all over New YorkCity, but it’s more singersongwriterin Austin,which I love. I’ve written acouple of songs other peopleseem to like more thanI do, but I don’t have aburning desire to writesongs. Why should I fumblein that territory?“There’s nothing worsethan mediocre songs.”Walk the LineA quick survey of her recent repertoireindicates a distinct Southwestern flavor toher great American songbook, with WillieNelson’s “Night Life” next to Billie Holidayfavorite “Comes Love,” and Tom T. Hall’s“That’s How I Got to Memphis” besideIrving Berlin’s “Blue Skies.” Other standardsinclude “I Didn’t Know What Time ItWas” from Pal Joey and Tony Bennett’s “IWanna Be Around.”“It’s like acting,” offers Wheeler-Nicholson, considering the challenge ofperforming as a singer in a town where thebar for every musical genre sits high. “I likeinterpreting other people’s impressions.Other people’s songs.”At 52, the actressretains a thickmane of butterycurls framingthe regal bonestructure famouslyrememberedopposite ChevyChase in Fletchand Kurt Russell inTombstone.Paradoxically, that’s led her back towardsongwriting. She’s a veteran of the ultimatecollaborative art, so working alongside celebratedlocal talent such as jazz pianistEddy Hobizal finds them now workingtogether on new material. Pinpointing theright co-workers was itself a challenge. InNew York, she doubled up with both keyboardistsand guitarists.“I asked a lot of people – asked around alot,” she nods. “And David Pulkingham suggestedEddy and a couple other people, notstrictly for jazz. We started playing songsand it was so good. Then David stoppedworking with Alejandro Escovedo and Iinvited him. So it’s the three of us.”Pursuing work as a singer isn’t a bad life,but every now and then the day job takesher away from it all, as it did for most of lastyear. When she did get a chance to relax onlocal stages, her guests included HeartlessBastards’ bassist Jesse Ebaugh on pedalsteel and bassist Chris Maresh.“There’s a baseline of 30 or 40 songs pershow,” she enthuses. “It’s really aboutchoosing the songs I want as centerpieces.The night Jesse sat in on steel, I sang morehonky-tonk – country stuff we hadn’tplayed before. Other times we’ll do somethinglike ‘Night Life’ that everyone knows.What a song.“That’s the stuff I love, and I’m alwaystrying to walk that line.“To me, it’s the same at heart; I love singingjazz with country instruments and viceversa. Some of what I do is take songs out oftheir genre and move them to other areas.“I love singing balladswith a jazz trio, but I liketo mix it up too.”Now, there’s evendemand for a DanaWheeler-Nicholson CD.“I’ve never sung withany agenda, so recordingseems ... well, I don’t havea plan here. All I do isgigs and sing, so the ideaof recording seems mysterious,something youdo to get on the radio. I’mnot necessarily trying todo that.”In addition to the monthlySahara Lounge gigs,she returns to New YorkCity at the end of March tosing. It’s a trip she anticipates,slightly bittersweet because her oldhometown continues changing as fast asher adopted one of eight years.“Part of why I sing these songs is oldfashioned,but I feel strongly about where Icome from in the history of music in NewYork. I’ve been able to see Lydia Lunch atMax’s Kansas City one night and BlossomDearie at a jazz club the next.“And somebody’s got to sing these songs.They mean a lot to me. Maybe that’s why Idon’t have a plan to record, because othershave sung them a lot better.“But these songs should be sung.” nDana Wheeler-Nicholson performs at the Sahara LoungeTuesday, Jan. 29.44 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m

MUSIC reviewsFree Week Live ShotS Part 2for free week photo galleries, see austinchronicle.comShakey GravesThe Parish, Jan. 9As the Parish stage lights silhouette Shakey Graves, hispose comes into relief: legs bent, stance fixed, large-bodiedguitar slung high on his rail-thin frame with the neck angledslightly toward the heavens. On his head, a crisply bentcowboy hat. He looks a little like Townes Van Zandt and alot like Woody from Toy Story. The heels of his leather shoesrest on drum pedals that beat on a suitcase outfitted witha drumhead and a tambourine. His black-and-tan archtopguitar rings out with a high gain matching his trebly howl. Notsimply a young, pretty face, Graves fingerpicks minor chordsin jumpy patterns, with notable intensity and interesting noteselection. Over the last year, the Austin native’s risen out ofthe singer-songwriter scrap heap and amassed a big enoughfan base to merit a weekly residency at the Parish, whichhe’s filled to near capacity on the first two Wednesdays inJanuary. Sadly, the local troubadour’s performance for FreeWeek comes off ... shakey. After connecting with a sinuousversion of “Unlucky Skin,” he does little to capitalize on theroom’s ample energy, offering awkward banter and unexceptionaldelivery instead. Perhaps it’s the early set tequila shotmaking his guitar playing unfocused and his raspy, ramblingvocals delivered with more obligation than fervor. Even hissignature move of following a quiet passage with a drawnout “awhoooo” and snapping back into a stomp-n-shakedrumbeat can’t enliven the capacity crowd. Lucky for ShakeyGraves, there’s always next week.– Kevin Curtinj o h n a n d e r s o nWhiskey Shivers, Guns of Navarone,Holiday Style, Slowtrain, WiretreeHoly Mountain, Jan. 10As bespectacled local quartet Wiretree warms up, thecrowd inside Red River revival Holy Mountain counts rathersparse on this cold Thursday evening. A blink later andthe former Beauty Bar, now reconfigured, is packed savefor a two-foot space around the stage. KUTX evening hostand Good Music Club face Laurie Gallardo introducesthe evening, and it’s off and running and never short ofraucous. Wiretree fires off two new cuts slated for a summerrelease, keeping with the band’s no-frills power pop.Roots-rock collective Slowtrain crams the stage to bursting,swelling rich tones into twanged tracks like “WhenI Walk Into a Room.” Formed from ex-Zykos, the GloriaRecord, and Frank Smith members, Holiday Style debuts atHoly Mountain, lax vocals barely audible above the churningupheaval of guitar, but it’s easy to pinpoint the intersectionof influences, as well as to spot the potential ofthis fledgling group. Southern rocker Cory Reinisch leadsquartet Guns of Navarone through a country-strong rockset with a punked-up spirit, blazing through its 45 minuteswith infectious enthusiasm. As indicated by the titteringwhispers while they set up and the uproarious applausewith the first note, the pièce de résistance rushes thestage: Whiskey Shivers. It doesn’t matter if you’ve seenthem once or 100 times. This shit-kicking, bluegrass-loving,barefoot hillbilly troupe never delivers anything shortof exhilarating.– Abby Johnstonwhiskeyshiverss h e l l e y h i a ms h e l l e y h i a mriverboatGamblersRiverboat Gamblers, East CameronFolkcore, American SharksMohawk, Jan. 11“We’re called American Sharks. You don’t mind if westart off with some fast rock & roll, do you?” So askedthe burly Mike Hardin before the local trio exploded intoa tsunami that left nothing but blood in the water fromall the headbanging. Hardin, recently relocated to Austinfrom Houston after fronting the stoner glam of Roky Moonand BOLT!, vied for the most lovable man in metal bythreatening to bear-hug the entire audience in appreciation.It was a complete contrast to the Sharks’ massiveriffage, which rightfully earned them a recent openingslot on tour with the Sword. Though the set timed out tooshort, it fed well into the Southern rock explosion of EastCameron Folkcore, the notoriously sprawling outfit packingthe stage as a 10-piece and sounding like a Lucerohootenany. Moody and gravelly beyond desperation, AllenDennard and Blue Mongeon competed in stomping acrossthe stage, showcasing tunes from February’s upcomingFor Sale, including lead anthem “Salinger Is Dead,” thedark “Ophelia,” and biting “Sallie Mae,” all proving ECFCis perched for breakout. Mohawk’s outside stage remainsideally constructed for any Riverboat Gamblers’ slot, itsrafters begging for Mike Wiebe’s acrobatics. The frontmandidn’t disappoint, diving from the balcony to crowd surfand ripping his shirt as he pinballed against the concretewalls. Digging deep, the veteran Austin punk quintet roaredthrough “Hey! Hey! Hey!,” “True Crime,” and dished grittygutter glory with “The Ol’ Smash and Grab.” Still swinging,still knocking it out.– Doug FreemanBlind Pets’Josh Loganj o h n a n d e r s o nPsychedelic Light & Sound Does Free WeekHotel vegas, Jan. 12Local promotion entity Psychedelic Light &Sound put its motto of “a festival designed tooverload the senses” to the test with this sprawling,12-hour lineup. The improvisational ambienceof Lattice, Cream-y power trio traditionalismof Pi, and Wolfmother worship of Fort Worth’sSonic Buffalo barely registered, but thingspicked up with Surly Gates. The quartet stayedsober, but its well-crafted Crosby, Stills, Nash& Crazy Horse approach needed no psilocybin.Fueled by surf music and Americana, Modrag’ssnappy garage pop injected caffeine energy intoa Nuggets core, the local trio’s sharp songwritingtrumping any lack of originality. Invading thepaisley underground with Eighties synthesizer,ambitious songs, and some post-punk hip shake,Obscured by Echoes became the most distinctiveand sophisticated band on the bill. BlackTabs’ grunge stripped down to just riff, beat,and voice, fronted by a blues mama who makesup in enthusiasm what she lacks in technique.Furthest flung of the bill, Denver’s Thee DangDangs bounced through straight garage rock,highlighted by Rebecca Williams’ reverb-drenchedyelp and catchy tuneage. “I wish I was on acid,”proclaimed Blind Pets singer/guitarist Josh Logan,whose mother was in attendance. “I hope someonehere is.” An annoying amp hum nearly obliteratedthe first half of the local trio’s hard-rockingpunk (or is that punked-up hard rock?), but onceit took off, the Pets played as if this was boththe most fun experience of their lives and thelast. Led by Psychedelic Light & Sound’s RobbieD Love, Deep Space took advantage of host dutyto soak in self-indulgent but sincere “free yourmind” psychobabble, as well as spacey acid jams.The antithesis of Deep Space, San Antonio’s RichHands celebrated the virtues of pre-weed rock withrefreshingly simple lyrics, catchy tunes, and a goodbeat the kids could dance to. – Michael Toland46 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m

Sarah Childs won a restraining order in Denham Springs, La., in December,forbidding the town from shutting down her “Christmas” lights decoration. Thelarge outdoor display (in a neighborhood with traditional Christmas displays)was the image of two hands with middle fingers extended.Three-STar room ThaT’S a DumpThe usual 20,000 or so visitors every yearto Belgium’s Verbeke Foundation art parkhave the option (365 of them, anyway) tospend the night inside the feature attraction:a 20-foot-long, 6-foot-high polyester replica ofa human colon created by Dutch designerJoep Van Lieshout. At one end, of course,another body part is replicated (and gives theinstallation its formal name, the HotelCasAnus). The facility, though “cramped,”according to one prominent review, featuresheating, showers, and double beds, and rentsfor the equivalent of about $150 a night. The30-acre art park is regarded as one ofEurope’s “edgiest” art destinations.Compelling explanaTionSGiuseppe Tedesco took the witness standin Newton, N.J., in December and swore thatall six shots that hit his girlfriend, AlyssaRuggieri (one of them fatal), were “selfdefenseaccidents.” After she discovered his.25-caliber handgun in the sofa cushions, hesaid he reached for it and in the struggle wasshot in the hand, but he still managed to gripthe gun tightly, and the pair tumbled downsome stairs. During the struggle, “both”hands shot Ruggieri twice. Despite their injuries,they both maintained their vice-like gripson the gun, he said, and “they” shot Ruggieritwice more. The final shot, he said, camewith Ruggieri holding the gun point-blank athis face, and when he pushed it away, “they”fired another shot that hit Ruggieri in the temple.(At press time, the trial was continuing.)The issues director of the fundamentalistAmerican Family Association told his radioaudience in November that God’s feelings willby Chuck Shepherdbe hurt if America stops using fossil fuels forenergy. “God has buried those treasuresthere because he loves to see us find them,”said Bryan Fischer, who described Americans’campaigns against fossil fuels as similar tothe time when Fischer, at age 6, told a birthday-presentdonor that he didn’t like his gift,“and it just crushed that person.”Retrials and appeals are sometimes grantedif a convicted criminal demonstrates thathe received “ineffective assistance of counsel.”Among the reasons that the lawyer forconvicted Joliet, Ill., quadruple-murdererChristopher Vaughn offered in his Novembermotion was the ineptness of other lawyers(but not himself). Specifically, he argued, thelawyers for the convicted wife-killing policeofficer Drew Peterson put on such a disgustingcase that they gave all defense lawyers abad name. (The website LoweringtheBar.netpointed out that Vaughn lawyer George Lenardhimself violated a lawyers’ “kitchen sink”standard by overlisting 51 separate reasonswhy his client deserved a new trial.)ChuTzpah!Mauricio Fierro gained instant fame inDecember in São Paulo, Brazil, as the reportedvictim of a car theft (captured on surveillancevideo) when he dashed into a pharmacy.He went to a police station to file a report,but encountered the pharmacy owner makinghis own report – that Fierro was actually robbinghim at the moment the car was taken.More surveillance video revealed that whileFierro was standing outside the pharmacy,wondering where his car was, a man ran byand stole the stolen cash. Fierro then immoderatelycomplained to the police even moreR o y T o m p k i n sabout São Paulo’s crime rate and lack ofsecurity. Afterward, Fierro admitted to a localnews website that in fact he had stolen thevery car that he was reporting stolen.The ConTinuing CriSiSFormer undercover cop Mark Kennedy filedfor damages in October against the LondonMetropolitan police, claiming post-traumaticstress syndrome based on the department’s“negligence” in allowing him to have such arobust sex life on the job that he fell in lovewith a woman whose organization he had infiltrated.Kennedy’s wife has filed for divorceand is also suing the department, and 10other women (including three of Kennedy’sformer lovers) have also filed claims.In a 3-2 decision, the Board of Adjustmentin the Seattle suburb of Clyde Hill ruled thata homeowner must chop down two large, eleganttrees on his property because theyobstruct a neighbor’s scenic view of Seattle’sskyline. The board’s majority reasoned thatthe complaining neighbor (who happens to beformer baseball all-star John Olerud) wouldotherwise suffer a $255,000 devaluation ofhis $4 million estate. (Olerud was ordered topay for the tree removal and to plant theneighbor two smaller trees in place of themajestic ones).people WiTh iSSueS1) New York’s highest court ruled inNovember that subway “grinders” (men whomasturbate by rubbing up against women ontrains) cannot be charged with felonies aslong as they don’t use force to restrain theirvictims (but only commit misdemeanors thatusually result in no jail time). 2) Police inPhuket, Thailand, announced that their allpointssearch for a public masturbator whoharassed a restaurant’s staff had producedno suspects – although a spokesman saidthey did find “a few people (nearby) who weremasturbating in their vehicles, but none ofthem were the man we are looking for.”perSpeCTiveUpdate: Four months have passed since“News of the Weird” mentioned that at least60 North Carolina prisoners have beenimproperly incarcerated – they are legallyinnocent based on a 2011 federal appealscourt decision. (Still others are at least owedsentence reduction because they had beenconvicted of offenses in addition to the incorrectone.) A June USA Today story revealedthe injustice, and the federal governmenttook until August to release holds on theinmates, but since then, only 44 of the estimated175 affected prisoners have been correctlyadjudicated. USA Today reported inDecember that the recent delay has beenbecause of the obstinacy of some NorthCarolina federal judges, including casesinvolving citizens by now wrongfully locked upfor more than 18 months.Visit Chuck Shepherd daily atwww.newsoftheweird.blogspot.com(or www.newsoftheweird.com).Send your weird news to: Chuck Shepherd, PO Box18737, Tampa, FL 33679 or weirdnewstips@yahoo.com.©2013 Universal Press SyndicateVINYL/CD/DVDbuY aND traDeNew aND uSeD2209 South First Street462-6008•endofanear.coma u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m JANUARY 18, 2013 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E 47

(R, 122 min., subtitled)The unpredictable love story Rust and Bone is notthe first thing you might imagine French filmmakerJacques Audiard would make on the heelsof A Prophet, his widely lauded film of 2009.A devastating story about race, class, andpower, A Prophet takes place within the confined,all-male world of prison – far from theazure skies and waters of Antibes on theMediterranean coast where Rust and Bone worlds.

(R, 109 min.)Allen Hughes’ first feature to direct withouthis twin brother, Albert, Broken City evokesthe sociological breadth and gallows humor ofthe Hughes Brothers’ early movies, MenaceII Society (1993), Dead Presidents (1995)and the 1999 documentary, American Pimp.Wahlberg stars in this private-eye mystery asBilly Taggart, who is not the stealthiest gumshoein the world. When caught sleuthing,Billy raises a further ruckus by pummelingthe witnesses; he can’t grease any palmsbecause he’s broke, and he’s broke becausehis clients keep giving him the slip on unpaidinvoices. So it seems too good to be truewhen the mayor of New York (Crowe) personallyhires Taggart to track down the lover ofhis wife (Zeta-Jones) two weeks before heruns for re-election. “Stick to the adulteryplot – it’s sexier,” jokes the mayor, who knowsthe P.I. from his former days on the NYPD. ButTaggart refuses to limit himself to matters ofthe boudoir. Naturally, there’s a dead body, aniceberg of corruption, and a cloud of doomlooming over third-party innocents.The role’s a bit boyish for Wahlberg, butthe other actors steal the show anyway,56 T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E JANUARY 18, 2013 a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o mparticularly Pepper, tight-lipped and holloweyedas the incumbent-challenger Valliant, aself-described “rich Connecticut carpetbagger”with a Harvard pedigree and a socialconscience; and Wright, subtly saucy here asthe cold-blooded police chief, who seems toknow a little too much about everything.The plot, frankly, is a little confusing. Fouror five subplots wander off into oblivion, andit’s occasionally hard to tell whether Hughesis winking at cliches or merely adhering tothe genre handbook. In the first five minutes,we’re treated to pounding gavels, reportersswarming the courthouse steps, and jollyfat cats cavorting with decanters. But all ofthis cartoony nonsense must be forgiven,because Hughes manages to accomplish afeat I would have never thought cinematicallypossible: He creates a white-knuckle scenefrom a mayoral debate about zoning policy.You could’ve heard a Skittle drop in thepacked house screening I attended. That, andBroken City’s terrifyingly realistic car chase –another throwback to vintage Hughes – arealone worth the price of admission.HHH– Leah ChurnerAlamo Lake Creek, Barton Creek Square, CMCedar Park, Hill Country Galleria, CM RoundRock, Southpark Meadows, Cinemark Stone HillTown Center, Flix Brewhouse, Highland, GalaxyMoviehouse, Gateway, Lakeline, Metropolitan,Tinseltown North, Westgatea haunted houseD: Michael Tiddes; with Marlon Wayans, Marlene Forte,Essence Atkins, David Koechner, Dave Sheridan, NickSwardson, Alanna Ubach, Cedric the Entertainer. (R, 86 min.)Actors, at the behest of writers, directors,producers, and agents, have had to sufferall sorts of indignities onscreen. The actorturned-writer,however, gets to wrestle backsome measure of control, which is why itboggles the mind that A Haunted House starand co-writer Marlon Wayans is at least 50%responsible for a scene that requires himto take a dump on the living room floor. Andhere’s the real rub: By the end of this witlessParanormal Activity spoof, you’ll think thesoiled carpet got off easy.Some of the Scary Movie series’ architectsreassemble here for a joylessly raunchycomedy about a ghost causing trouble forcouple Malcolm (Wayans) and Kisha (Atkins).Ghost Hunters and The Exorcist are someof the eye-rolling springboards for parody,while Wayans and co-writer Rick Alvarez floggross stereotypes about gender and race(Mandingo parties are a recurring theme) tozero comedic effect. In his first feature, directorMichael Tiddes mimics the increasinglyfruitless found-footage trend, and it’s a disastrousmove, this documentary aesthetic: Byeliminating the winking, broad strokes of thefilmmakers’ more successful spoofs, they’vemade a film that is not only dumb, but dull.by Marjorie bauMgartenIt’s like watching a snuff film, only it’s theaudience who’s dying inside.– Kimberley JonesBarton Creek Square, CM Cedar Park, CM RoundRock, Southpark Meadows, Cinemark StoneHill Town Center, Highland, Gateway, Lakeline,Metropolitan, Tinseltown North, Westgatethe Last standD: Kim Jee-Woon; with Arnold Schwarzenegger, JohnnyKnoxville, Forest Whitaker, Rodrigo Santoro, Luis Guzmán,Jaimie Alexander, Genesis Rodriguez, Eduardo Noriega, PeterStormare, Zach Gilford. (R, 108 min.)After serving as governor of California andbeing the key figure in a major scandal, ArnoldSchwarzenegger shows a mature returnto his peak action form after an absenceof 10 years. Despite his acknowledgedage, creaking bones, and reduced nerve,Schwarzenegger still delivers quite a performancein this fun, straight-ahead action film.(This is unlike Sylvester Sallone’s starringrole in the upcoming Bullet to the Head, whichpromises to be a typical action thriller featuringan over-the-top, macho performance.)The Last Stand begins by chroniclingthe seemingly peaceful life of Ray Owens(Schwarzenegger), who is the sheriff of a smallborder town in Arizona. Hundreds of milesaway in Los Angeles, and unknown to thesheriff, the leader of a notorious crime cartel,Gabriel Cortez (Noriega), is being transportedby an armed caravan that’s under the leader-

ship of FBI agent John Bannister (Whitaker).The convoy is attacked by an army of gunmenrecruited for the purpose of executing a daringlywell-planned escape to Mexico for Cortez.The first three-quarters of the film followCortez’s flight as he heads toward the borderdriving a racing car capable of going morethan 200 miles an hour. Staked out alongthe way are more cohorts waiting to help himexecute his escape plan. In his mad drivesouth, he constantly outwits his pursuersand the authorities.Cortez is heading toward Sheriff Owens’border town, where a significant number ofhis cronies are armed and waiting. Owens andcrew slowly begin to figure out there is somethingterribly wrong going on in their community.Although the initial escape sequencesare a lot of fun, the film doesn’t really take offuntil this final confrontation. Owens’ deputiesinclude the eccentric Lewis Dinkum (Knoxville)and Mike Figuerola (Guzmán), who providemuch of the comic relief. They set up for alast stand against the escaped drug kingpinand his gang. Owens huffs and puffs andshows great vulnerability, while not playing atbeing a superhero or invincible comic-bookcharacter. Yet he is determined, experienced,and strategically savvy. The final actionscenes are thrillingly entertaining.In his first American outing as a director,South Korean genre director Kim Jee-Woon isperfect for this taut, nonstop action film, whichis neither overly ambitious or overreaching.Kim fully established his action credentialswith 2008’s wild and comic Korean WesternThe Good, the Bad, the Weird. Still, this isSchwarzenegger’s film: By knowing what to do,and what not to do, he brings it home.HHH– Louis BlackAlamo Slaughter Lane, Barton Creek Square, CMCedar Park, Hill Country Galleria, CM Round Rock,Southpark Meadows, Cinemark Stone Hill TownCenter, Highland, Galaxy Moviehouse, Gateway,iPic, Lakeline, Tinseltown North, TinseltownSouth, WestgateMaMaD: Andrés Muschietti; with Jessica Chastain, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Megan Charpentier, Isabelle Nelisse, Daniel Kash.(PG-13, 100 min.)Haunting and extremely atmospheric,Mama is a horror film imbued with an unsettlingand affecting power.Having killed his wife, a father grabs his twosmall daughters and flees to a small, abandonedhouse deep in the woods.

In their newfound roles as parents,they face the many problems implicit in raisingtwo small children – especially ones who havebeen on their own for five years.Dr. Dreyfuss seems unusually interestedin the girls. How and whether they survivedalone seems to be the troubling, main question.After Lucas suffers an accident, muchof the responsibility for raising the girls fallson Annabel. As a hardcore punk rocker, sheis not terribly interested in becoming a mother,or even equipped with the appropriate skillsets. But she begins to grow into her roleand learns to love and cherish the children.As in the best horror films, it is what issuggested that has the most power. Mama’screepiness is achieved through cinematography,score, and editing, rather than hideousmonsters grotesquely and luridly shown.While the cast is excellent, the girls giveespecially powerful and evocative performances.Chastain again reminds us that she is anactress who can effortlessly and powerfullyplay any role she’s given. Portraying a punkrocker who evolves into a loving parental surrogateneeds an unexpectedly broad range ofskills and an ability to handle many situations.In 2008, Andrés Muschietti directed a shortfilm called “Mamá,” which he wrote with hiswife Barbara, who also produced it. FilmmakerGuillermo del Toro saw “Mamá” along with thehundreds of shorts a year he admittedly watches.But this one stood out, and he becamedetermined to help get it made into a feature.Del Toro serves as the new film’s executive producer;Barbara Muschietti is the feature’s coproducerand co-writer.

(R, 129 min.)In this bold but empty imagining of Anna Karenina,director Joe Wright sets the action mostly within thewalls of a theatre: This world is, quite literally, all astage. There is the sedate wife and mother Anna(Knightley), limply married to the fly-right bureaucratKarenin (Law) and embarking for Moscow tosave her brother’s marriage to poor, put-upon Dolly(Macdonald). And there is the first acquaintance ofdoomed Anna and Count Vronsky (Taylor-Johnson),who tumble into an erotic liaison that will both igniteand ruin her. There is so much to compact here,and – forgive the schoolmarm aside – if you haven’tyet enjoyed the source novel, then you should stopreading this right now and start reading that, becauseit truly is a transformative thing. Sadly, the complexityof Tolstoy’s vision is only just skimmed here; thisAnna Karenina provides no lasting illumination, onlythe fast-burn spitzing of bang snaps.

(R, 120 min.)Ben Affleck has reinvented himself as one ofHollywood’s top-notch directors, and this third featurefully proves that the filmmaker knows what he isdoing. Argo is a terrifically entertaining thriller that’sbased on a true-life incident. Latino CIA operativeTony Mendez (Affleck) has been called in to helpsix American embassy employees who managed toescape when their compound in Iran was taken overby Islamic fundamentalists on Nov. 4, 1979. As theCIA contemplates extraction, Mendez hatches a crazyplan: creating the cover of a location-scouting expeditionfor a science fiction movie called Argo. As wefollow every step of the mission, Affleck’s deft craftsmanshipand casting instincts are on full display. Notallowing well enough to be, however, is the multipleprongedcoda, which slackens Argo’s taut pace to acrawl. But I can hear the filmmakers saying, in thecadence of the film’s running joke, “Arrhh, go fuckyourself.” (10/12/2012)HHHHnArbor, iPic, Tinseltown South– Marjorie BaumgartenCirque du soLeiL:worLds awayD: Andrew Adamson; with Erica Linz, Igor Zaripov. (PG, 91 min.)To call Cirque du Soleil mere circus is to undersellthe astonishing breadth and vision of the Canadiantroupe-turned-entertainment empire. And to callCirque du Soleil: Worlds Away a movie – while techfilmlistingsnically accurate – is a wet willy to all those othermovies out there toiling away at narrative logic,dramatic stakes, and identifiable characters. This3-D film offers up a kind of pupu platter of sevenCirque du Soleil shows, strung together with the verythin connective tissue of an original story, pennedby writer/director Andrew Adamson. In the framingstory, a circusgoer (Linz) falls in love with an aerialist(Zaripov) and chases him into a beautifully renderedbut bizarro land of dizzying, gosh-wow acrobatics andthrilling design. Unfortunately, the leads are dull asdishwater, and, minute-to-minute, the damn thingdoesn’t make any sense.

(Makeof that what you will.) An exercise in pure sadism,The Collection moves at a clip that leaps over plotholes in its race to elicit fright. No weighty psychologyor physical logic freights this enterprise. TheCollector (Archer) remains a mysterious hulk in ablack mask who lives to pluck strangers from calamitiesand then torture them with a vast array of RubeGoldberg-styled mechanical contraptions. Pointshave to be given for allowing this film’s central victimElena (Fitzpatrick) to be a woman who rises to heroicproportions. The cinematography by Sam McCurdyis emotively rich, although some of the deaths happentoo quickly to fully register.

The literal and figurative institutionalizationof Austin music and art legendDaniel Johnston is analyzed from many anglesin this perceptive film profile. (*) @Alamo Ritz,Monday, 10:30pm.J django unChainedD: Quentin Tarantino; with Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, LeonardoDiCaprio, Kerry Washington, Samuel L. Jackson, Laura Cayouette,Don Johnson. (R, 165 min.)Quentin Tarantino is back with another whip-smartwish-fulfillment history adventure. Django Unchainedhas obvious roots in the spaghetti Western, yet it’s alsoa love story, a revenge picture, and an action comedy.The love story, in which the former slave Django (Foxx)seeks to rescue his wife Broomhilda (Washington)from the plantation owner to whom she was sold, isvivid and palpable. The revenge drama is violent andbloody, with whippings and near-castration added toTarantino’s vast arsenal of sanguinary mayhem. Eventhe comedy has its moments to shine. As entertainingand eye-opening as Django Unchained is, the film alsosuffers from a certain slackness. Toward the end ofthe two-hour-and-45-minute epic, the film seems readyto conclude – but not before Tarantino stages anotherobligatory, Mexican-standoff flourish. Despite thesequibbles, Django Unchained, with its embarrassment ofriches (and tiny cameos), was one Christmas presentwe couldn’t wait to unwrap.

(R, 138 min.)For the first half-hour, Flight keeps us rapt with thrillingaction and a troubling moral quandary. But oncethings become more earthbound, the film reshapesitself into a standard substance-abuse story. A copiousline of coke gets airline pilot Whip Whitaker(Washington) out the door and on the way to the airport.Suddenly, all your worst fears about pilots unfit to fly arestaring you in the face. Yet, when his plane experiencesmassive mechanical failure, Whip manages to land viacrazy, instinctive measures. He is indeed a hero, buthe also had a .24 blood-alcohol level during the crash.Reconciling those facts is an interesting dilemma,and one that fuels the ensuing investigation. DirectorZemeckis shows he still has a vivid visual sensibilityand a finger on the zeitgeist. But Flight’s pat closingsequence leaves nothing up in the air and returns alltray tables to their full, upright positions.

(PG, 87 min.)Finally, a stop-motion, animated Halloween filmthat rivals The Nightmare Before Christmas. And of thetwo – simmer down now, gothlings – Frankenweenieis the ookier, more assured, and frankly better film.Filmed in glorious black and white, Frankenweenie isthat rare film that’s both kid- and adult-friendly.

Comedy and tension, complete withtorch- and pitchfork-wielding villagers, follows.

(R, 110 min.)A virtual catalog of uneven filmmaking, GangsterSquad is loosely based on historical incidents andcharacters, though the film takes great liberties withthem. New Los Angeles Police Chief Parker (Nolte)is installed in 1950 to deal with the East Coastmobs that have been establishing themselves inL.A. Unofficially, he asks Sgt. John O’Mara (Brolin) tocreate a renegade band of honest cops to go afterthe worst of these gangsters, Mickey Cohen (Penn).Familiar stereotypes abound: There’s O’Mara’s sidekick,the wise-cracking Sgt. Jerry Wooters (Gosling);Coleman Harris (Mackie), the streetwise African-American; legendary sharpshooter Max Kennard(Patrick); his young Hispanic protégé Navidad Ramirez(Peña); and communications genius Conway Keeler(Ribisi). Director Ruben Fleischer (Zombieland, 30Minutes or Less) delivers no real cinematic surprisesother than his unevenness of tone, style, and narrativedevelopment. Despite the unrelenting actionand the terrific cast, Gangster Squad comes up morescattered than successful.

(PG-13, 95 min.)This film completely surrenders to its premise,with everything else following in a predictable way.Inventor Andy Brewster (Rogen) is about to start ona cross-country road trip to pitch his new product– a cleaner – to major chains. On the spur of themoment, he invites his overbearing mother Joyce(Streisand) to join him. Streisand and Rogen areboth impressive comedic talents, but in an attemptat sophistication, they both very much underplaytheir roles, which is to the detriment of the film.The resulting tone is not shrill, nor does it boast anabsurd number of embarrassing moments. The GuiltTrip fails in a completely opposite direction: It isgentle, loving, and way too understated. Therefore,it’s overwhelmingly sweet, but also unexciting and notabout much of anything. Watching this movie is nota complete waste of time, but it is little more than asitcom-lite diversion.

If thatsynopsis sounds asinine as opposed to inspiring,you’ve hit this mug right on the kisser. Here Comesthe Bomb would’ve been a more fitting title. BetweenScott’s puppy-dog pining for school nurse Bella(Hayek), the evil machinations of the school principal(Germann), and the actual fight scenes of Scott, HereComes the Boom hits every dopey note in the “savethe school” subgenre playbook. I just can’t help butwonder how many real-world high school music andarts programs could have been saved from extinctionby simply not making this movie and donating thefilm’s budget to actual schools in need.

(PG-13, 98 min.)Alfred Hitchcock, the undisputed master of moviesuspense, is given fairly fanciful treatment in thismovie, which is theoretically based on StephenRebello’s book, Alfred Hitchcock and the Making of‘Psycho’. Yet, as directed by Sacha Gervasi, this filmis more a love story about the marriage betweenHitchcock (Anthony Hopkins) and his wife, AlmaReville (Helen Mirren), than a historically accuratebackstage look at the making of this importantmovie. Portraying Hitchcock, Hopkins puts in agood effort, but rarely convinces completely. Still,the film’s discrepancies would be barely noticeableif Hitchcock provided a more absorbing glimpseof the making of Psycho. Long after his death,Hitchcock’s contradictions continue to hold us in hissway. Both a consummate showman and a savvyartist, Hitchcock can be all things to all people.But the lovelorn Hitchcock of this film’s fantasieswould be better off left on the cutting-room floor.(12/07/2012)HHHnMovies 8The Hunt forRed OctoberD: John McTiernan; with Sean Connery, AlecBaldwin, Scott Glenn, Courtney B.

Though this initialoffering in the planned trilogy of J.R.R. Tolkien’s1937 fantasy novel feels regrettably slight interms of narrative adventure and fantasy revelations,that hasn’t prevented director Peter Jacksonfrom painting Middle-earth with abundant visualdetail and technical bravura. The Hobbit introducesus to a few new creatures – trolls, the dragonSmaug – and old ones, too – Gollum (Serkis)reappears, creepy and deranged as ever – butthe hobbit Bilbo Baggins (Freeman), the wizardGandalf (McKellen), and an indistinguishableclump of 13 good-natured, hairy-headed dwarvesare the primary protagonists here. To sum it up,there is little that is unexpected in The Hobbit: AnUnexpected Journey. Rather than an epic continuationof Jackson’s Middle-earth obsession, the filmseems more like the work of a man driving arounda multilevel parking garage, unable to find the exit.(12/14/2012)HHHn– Marjorie BaumgartenAlamo Lake Creek, Alamo Slaughter Lane, AlamoVillage, Barton Creek Square, CM Cedar Park, HillCountry Galleria, CM Round Rock, Southpark Meadows,Cinemark Stone Hill Town Center, Flix Brewhouse,Gateway, IMAX Theatre, iPic, Lakeline, Metropolitan,Tinseltown North, WestgatehoteL transyLVaniaD: Genndy Tartakovsky; with the voices of Adam Sandler, KevinJames, Andy Samberg, Selena Gomez, Fran Drescher, Steve Buscemi,Molly Shannon, David Spade, CeeLo Green, Jon Lovitz. (PG, 91 min.)Throwing a bunch of Universal classic monsterarchetypes into an animated film and then using ageneric coming-of-age, father-daughter relationshipas the linchpin might’ve seemed like a good idea onpaper, but onscreen Tartakovsky’s Hotel Transylvania isas generically vacant as Mrs. Bates’ eye sockets. The118th birthday of Dracula’s daughter, Mavis (voicedby Gomez), has finally arrived and the overprotectiveDrac (Sandler), now the manager of the “for monstersonly” Hotel Transylvania, wants to keep her under hiswing forever. But, when Jonathan (Samberg), a losthuman backpacker, stumbles stonily into the hotel,love passes between the vampire’s daughter and thedisplaced skater dude, much to Drac’s chagrin. Not awhole lot ensues that you haven’t already figured outon your own. Universal should sue for damages to thereputation of its classic movie monsters. As for HotelTransylvania,, no need to put a stake in it – it’s deadlydull already.

(R, 95min.)These days, most revelations of sexual infidelitiesand dalliances engaged in by our political leadershave lost their power to shock or even surprise us.Yet, there’s something indecorous about this glimpseof Franklin Delano Roosevelt as a philanderer whocarried on multiple and simultaneous affairs withwomen other than his wife Eleanor. Hyde Park onHudson is based on the letters found underneath thebed of Margaret “Daisy” Suckley – FDR’s sixth cousin– after her death. The letters revealed the affair shehad with the president, which she had kept secret allthose years. Screenwriter Richard Nelson casts thissexual disclosure against the backdrop of an event ofgreater historic significance: a weekend visit from theBritish royals in 1939. Linney’s performance as Daisylacks definition and personality, and the omniscienceof her voiceover narration rings false. What remainsis the stunt casting of Bill Murray, which works somuch better than it has any right to.

(PG-13, 107 min.)You don’t have to be a parent to feel this film inyour bones. The Impossible, Juan Antonio Bayona’sdramatization of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami,begins when a British family – Henry (McGregor),Maria (Watts), and their three young sons – travel toa resort in Thailand for Christmas. Based on a truestory, but dressed with the usual cinematic embellishments,The Impossible tracks what happens two dayslater, when a 30-foot wall of water rends the familyapart. It’s a mess-maker, this movie. The Impossibleharrows like no other film in recent memory, fromits visceral depiction of the natural disaster to anintensely emotional landscape of lost children andboundless kindnesses done by strangers. Still, thereare missteps. The material is so innately powerful –and potently portrayed – that it needles when Bayonagilds the lily with forehead-slapping missed connectionsand heart strings overplucked (see: usual cinematicembellishments).

(PG-13, 130 min.)Although I’ve only read one of Lee Child’s JackReacher novels, my expectations for this film werevery low for the same reason many fans of the serieshave disparaged it: Cruise lacks the inherent violenceand visceral menace (as well as the oversized stature)of Child’s Reacher. I was thus quite surprisedby how well this violent suspense thriller works. JackReacher opens as five civilians are shot dead in acity mall. Barr (Sikora), the seeming culprit, is soonarrested, but on the pad provided for his confession,

he instead writes: “Get Jack Reacher.” After arrivingin the city, Reacher gradually comes to suspect thatBarr may have been set up, and begins to work onthe case with Helen (Pike), Barr’s defense attorney.Often dark and, at times, quite brutal, writer/directorChristopher McQuarrie’s Jack Reacher is occasionallypredictable and slow-moving, but mostly the film isvery suspenseful, enthralling stuff.

(PG-13, 157 min.)The quality-assurance boast of monster-hit stagemusical Les Misérables (based on Victor Hugo’s 1862novel) might as well be “Successfully Wringing TearsSince 1985!” A lot of hysteria attends director TomHooper’s extravagant adaptation … and I loved it.Jackman is commanding as the former convict JeanValjean, who hides his past to become a devoted factoryowner. Soon, the closing-in of his onetime jailer,Inspector Javert (Crowe), forces a spiritual crisis andanother flight from the law. When Les Misérablesis good, it is very, very good, and when it is bad,it’s usually because Russell Crowe has openedhis mouth. Shot to shot, Hooper’s vision careensbetween grotesque hyperrealism and tinny movieartifice. It is a little pitchy, this seesaw between gritand gloss, but it’s those wobbles in performance, theso-called mistakes, that make Les Misérables humanand heartfelt and – ultimately – a potent piece of cinema.(12/28/2012)HHHHn– Kimberley JonesAlamo Lake Creek, Alamo Slaughter Lane, Arbor, BartonCreek Square, CM Cedar Park, Hill Country Galleria, CMRound Rock, Southpark Meadows, Highland, GalaxyMoviehouse, iPic, Lakeline, Metropolitan, TinseltownNorth, Violet Crown, WestgateJ Life of piD: Ang Lee; with Suraj Sharma, Irrfan Khan, Rafe Spall, Tabu, AdilHussain, Gérard Depardieu. (PG, 125 min.)Demonstrating a delicate mastery of 3-D, Ang Leehas made a movie that had me in its visual thralleven before the opening credits were through. Soon,however, the magical spell lifts and the film clunkstoward Earth as a man nicknamed Pi (Irrfan Khan)promises to tell a character called the Writer (RafeSpall) a story that will make him “believe in God.”Setting aside the story’s fuzzy theological concerns,Life of Pi, which is adapted from Yann Martel’s bestsellingnovel, is extraordinarily accomplished. Thestory is gripping, and when adrift with teenage Pi(Suraj Sharma) and the Bengal tiger on the open sea,the film is at its most wondrous: a ravishing spectaclethat treads judiciously on the infinite line betweenwhat’s possible and impossible. Life of Pi, ironically,soars when it confines itself to land and sea; whenit grasps for the celestial, the film goes beyond itsreach.

(PG-13, 149 min.)Adapted from historian Doris Kearns Goodwin’sTeam of Rivals: The Political Genius of AbrahamLincoln, Spielberg’s film stitches together historylesson and TV procedural in its detailing of Lincoln’sstruggle to abolish slavery. First and certainly foremost:Master shape-shifter Daniel Day-Lewis deliversa monumental performance. He inhabits the characterbodily and temperamentally, too, as he shiftsto present different angles on the storied president,from formidable politician to keen wit, devoted father,and unhappy husband. On the subject of the latter:Lincoln, for all its grand-canvas ambitions, is at itschewiest when dramatizing Lincoln’s relationship withhis nervous wife Mary (Field). But the bygone mannerof speaking – formal and florid – doesn’t come easilyto all the actors, and the result is like an inferiorShakespeare production: The mouths are moving, butthe eyes don’t always connect with the meaning.

And when it comes to spending two hours inthe dark with our fretful aunts and reactionary inlaws,the less nudity, violence, and politics a moviehas, the better. On this score, you could do worsethan Parental Guidance, a family comedy with thesame rating as its name. Just don’t expect theluxury of dozing off. Things get noisy, as you canimagine, when a pair of progressive parents (Tomeiand Scott) leave vaudeville-ready hambones BillyCrystal and Bette Midler in charge of their threecoddled, soy-milk-drinking kids for a weekend.Dated generational jokes about speaker phones,tofu dogs, and Facebook “pokes” ensue, but theyare soon drowned out in a tsunami of bathroomhumor.

Anna Kendrick (age 27) and thereliably outré comic Rebel Wilson (age 26) stretchthe limits of the imagination as members of anincoming college freshmen class. The perenniallyperky Kendrick plays Beca, a kohl-rimmed angerpusswho’d rather be mashing tracks than attending Introto Psych. Still, she finds a community of sorts withWilson’s “Fat Amy” and a cookie-cutter, dysfunctional,all-girls a cappella group.

(R, 106 min.)Set in rural Pennsylvania, Promised Land tells thestory of a moral conflict in which there are no truevillains or heroes. Damon plays a man named SteveButler, who has been hired by a big energy companyto buy up land from area farmers so the new ownerscan drill for natural gas using the controversialpractice of fracking. Steve just about has things sewnup when an environmentalist named Dustin Noble(Krasinski) shows up and proceeds to work the community– and Steve – into a froth. Dustin also vies forthe affections of Alice (DeWitt), the local woman whohas caught Steve’s eye. Until a big, third-act revelation,not much else happens here. Promised Landdoesn’t offer great drama, nor does it offer the greatdebate on fracking that some might have hoped for.Still, the film has lots of small moments that make ita worthy effort.

(PG-13, 93 min.)Movie remakes are rarely a good idea (at least froman artistic point of view). The original Red Dawn, JohnMilius’ 1984 cult classic about Midwestern teenagerswho defiantly defend their homeland against Russianinvasion, has become deeply entrenched in theAmerican soul. The 2012 remake, however, derivesmost of its inspiration from Call of Duty and other firstperson-shootervideo games, rather than the originalfilm. Although the invading forces are North Koreanthis time around, the remake hews pretty close tothe original in terms of the plot. But Bradley’s versionplaces all the emphasis on the action sequencesand is near-laughable during its dramatic lulls. Asidefrom some thin threads about missing girlfriendsand such, the dynamic between Chris Hemsworth’sMarine-on-leave and his younger brother (Josh Peck) isthe remake’s only dramatic arc.

Twenty years later,the girl, Heather (Daddario), unaware that she isadopted, inherits a house in Texas from a grandmothershe never knew she had.

music listings january 18-24edited by Raoul HeRnandezlive music venues p.66 • roadshows & club listings p.68earache! More with Terry Allen at austinchronicle.com/earacheTerry AllenWhile Terry Allen took 14 years between albums – his latest,Bottom of the World, comes out next month – he wasn’t waitingaround for his muse. For starters, the Lubbock Mafiadon, who’s long called Santa Fe, N.M., home, producedtwo huge theatre pieces. He shies away from the termmultimedia, but both Dugout and Ghost Ship Rodezinvolved theatre, film, music, and painting.“I write all the time,” explains the composer, “but visualart, theatre, and music are all pretty much one thing for me.Focusing on one can bring a whole clutch of the others. SoI don’t really make a lot of designations between the differentgroups. It’s just one thing. I just took my time puttingthese songs together while I was doing other things.”Although his lyrics can be dense, Allen’s songs tendtoward the cinematic, an outgrowth of his work in thevisual arts. The harrowing, starkly drawn “EmergencyHuman Blood Courier” constitutes one such exampleon Bottom of the World.“When you have a song, you’re taking specific imagesand editing them in a concise way,” he relates. “It’s similarto a movie. They just take much more time in editingand in the process. For me, songs are very visual, in thesense that they’re like little movies.“Speaking of movies, I just found out that‘Emergency Human Blood Courier’ ends a new Irishmovie about the women who have been murdered inJuárez, Mexico.”At the Cactus, Allen will be joined by most of the playersfrom his new disc: son Bukka Allen, cellist BrianStandefer, and fiddler Richard Bowden. Along with coproducerLloyd Maines, they give Bottom of the Worldhaunted overtones.“It’s always a collaboration. I’ve worked with theseguys so long that sound just happens.” – Jim CaligiuriCactus Cafe, Friday 18Jack OblivianHotel Vegas, Friday 18Although 2011’s Rat City noddedtoward Son of Sam-era NYC, JackOblivian’s grunt-laden garage rockremains an indelible part of Memphis’formidable musical legacy.

Iwant to scream at them to go home!How should I protect myself? Idon’t want to have to walk aroundin a surgical mask, but I am consideringit.SeriouSly want companioni’m really interesting and developed.looking for love. wink wink. ask me over.Seriouslytogether, 36-SashaI feel you, Sasha. Sick people suck – well, except forFerris Bueller. He behaved responsibly and took the day off.Unfortunately, most people don’t have Bueller-sized balls. In fact,more than half of the population doesn’t have balls at all. No, it’snot the result of some horrifying nut-eating virus but the productof a cosmic chromosomal crapshoot. You’re either packing a pair,or you’re not. Either way, there isn’t much you can do about it. Alot of people feel that way about diseases. You either get them oryou don’t. It is exactly that type of cavalier attitude towards diseasethat drives germophobes bonkers. For instance, I’m prettysure that one out of six people here at the Chronicle have genitalherpes. WTF! Right? That’s like nine people! How do I know thatone of them isn’t secretly wiping his dick on the water fountain?I’m pretty sure there are several diabetic people here, too. I knowthat’s not necessarily infectious, but someone keeps leavingboxes of doughnuts in the kitchen. I might as well add in periodontaldisease – although I guess that’s to be expected with allthe doughnuts. Then, of course, there are those people who feelthey are so indispensable that they have to come into work eventhough they just got back from a bareback monkey-fucking expeditionon the Ebola River. Yeah, if Peter doesn’t finish those coversheets for the TPS reports, business will grind to a halt. Thetruth is, Sasha, that most of us are infected with fear: fear that ifwe don’t show up for work, the boss will find someone who will.Just like everything else in the workplace, fear is top down. Mysuggestion to you is to not live in fear. If you can’t manage that, goahead and buy that surgical mask and some Handi Wipes.need Some advice from the luv doc?send your questions to luvdoc@austinchronicle.comfree!Meet ChroniCleReadeRs who shaReyouR activitiesand interestsProfile of the WeekBROWSE through tons more pics and profiles ataustinchronicle.com/personalsCOMIXMr. SMarty PantS KnOWS93 percent of all people ever born have died.The UK still has 13,000 black-and-white TVs, according to theTV Licensing authority.Extreme décolletage was well-received in the English courtthroughout the 1620s, and returned to haute couture in the 1680s,too.

free will astrologyby Rob Brezsny for January 18-24CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A San Francisco writer named Maneesh Sethi decided he was wastingtoo much time on the Internet. His productivity was suffering. So he hired a woman to sit next to him as heworked and yell at him or slap his face every time his attention wandered off in the direction of Facebook ora funny video. It worked. He got a lot more done. While I would like to see you try some inventive approachesto pumping up your own efficiency, Capricorn, I don’t necessarily endorse Sethi’s rather gimmicky technique.Start brainstorming about some interesting yet practical new ways to enhance your self-discipline, please.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “Ronnyjohnson618” is a guy who posts his opinions on a wide variety ofYouTube videos. Many times, he claims to be an expert in the field he’s commenting on. Responding to a livemusic performance, he says he’s a conductor for an orchestra. Offering his opinion about a mimosa plant,he asserts that he is a botanist. Beneath other YouTube videos, he declares he is a meteorologist, chemist,psychologist, soldier, and geometry teacher. I love this guy’s blithe swagger; I’m entertained by the brazenfun he’s having. As you express yourself in the coming week, I recommend that you borrow some of his overthe-topaudacity. Create a mythic persona. Imagine your life as an epic story. Play the part of a hero.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The earliest performance artist on record was the ancient Greek philosopherDiogenes of Sinope. In one of his notorious stunts, he wandered around Athens with a lit lantern during thedaytime, claiming to be looking for an authentic human being. I recommend that you undertake a similarsearch in the coming days, Pisces. You don’t have to be as theatrical about it. In fact, it might be better tobe quite discreet. But I think it’s important for you to locate and interact with people who are living theirlives to the fullest – devoted to their brightest dreams, committed to their highest values, and sworn toexpress their highest integrity.ARIES (March 21-April 19): “If you would hit the mark, you must aim a little above it,” wrote nineteenthcentury poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. “Every arrow that flies feels the attraction of the earth.” This isgood counsel for you to keep in mind during the coming weeks, Aries. I suspect you will have a good, clearshot at a target you’ve been trying to get close to for a long time. Make sure you adjust your trajectory toaccount for the attraction of the Earth.TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If you learn a novel idea or a crucial new lesson while you are tipsy oroutright blitzed, you will probably forget it when you sober up. And it will remain forgotten as long as youabstain. But there’s a good chance you will recall the vanished information the next time you get loopy. I’mtelling you this, Taurus, because even if you haven’t been inebriated lately, you have definitely been in analtered and expanded state of consciousness. I’m afraid that when you come back down to earth in a fewdays, you might lose some of the luminous insights you’ve been adding to your repertoire. Is there anythingyou can do to ensure you will retain these treasures? It would be a shame to lose track of them until thenext time your mind gets thoroughly blown open.GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Studying the movements of the planets is my main way of discerning thehidden currents of fate. I sometimes supplement my investigations by reading tarot cards and the ChineseBook of Changes, also known as the I Ching. To arrive at your horoscope this week, I used all of the above,as well as the following forms of prognostication: catoptromancy, which is divination by gazing into a mirrorunderwater; cyclomancy, or divination by watching a wheel that’s turning; geloscopy, divination by listeningto random laughter; and margaritomancy, divination by observing bouncing pearls. Here’s what I found,Gemini: You now have the power to discern previously unfathomable patterns in a puzzling mystery you’vebeen monitoring. You also have the ability to correctly surmise the covert agendas of allies and adversariesalike. Maybe best of all, you can discover certain secrets you’ve been concealing from yourself.CANCER (June 21-July 22): “To be reborn is a constantly recurring human need,” said drama critic HenryHewes. I agree. We all need to periodically reinvent ourselves – to allow the old ways to die so that we canresurrect ourselves in unforeseen new forms. According to my analysis, Cancerian, your next scheduledrebirth is drawing near. For best results, don’t cling to the past; don’t imitate what has always worked before.Instead, have faith that surrendering to the future will bring you the exact transformation you need.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): My readers Paul and Sophie wrote to let me know they have patched togetherthree Latin words to invent a term for a new concept: vomfiabone. They say it means “a curse that becomesa blessing.” Here’s an example of the phenomenon at work in their lives: While driving home from worktogether, they experienced car trouble and had to pull over to the shoulder of the road, where they called atow truck. Later, they discovered that this annoying delay prevented them from getting caught in the middleof an accident just up ahead. Extrapolating from the current astrological omens, I’m guessing that you willexperience at least one vomfiabone in the coming week, Leo.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I bet that in the next five months you will be obliged to carry more responsibilitythan you have in the past. You will find it hard to get away with being lazy or careless. I suspect that duringthis time you will also have the privilege of wielding more influence. The effect you have on people will bemore pronounced and enduring. In short, Virgo, your workload will be greater than usual – and so will yourrewards. To the degree that you serve the greater good, you will be a major player. As for next few weeks, youshould concentrate on the work and service and responsibility part of this equation.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Do you know what a “binky” is? It’s what a rabbit does when it gets so crazilyhappy that it exuberantly leaps up into the air, stretching and twisting its body as it flicks and flops its feet.I’m not sure if lexicographers would allow us to apply this term to humans. But assuming they might, I’mgoing to predict that you’ll soon be having some binky-inducing experiences. You’re entering the Joy andPleasure Season, Libra – a time when abundant levels of fun and well-being might be quite normal.SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You know that area on your back that you can’t quite reach if you want toscratch it? It’s called your acnestis. I propose that we make it your featured metaphor of the week. Why?Because I suspect you will have to deal with a couple of itchy situations that are just beyond your ability torelieve. Yes, this may be frustrating in the short run. But it will ultimately make you even more resourcefulthan you already are. By this time next week, you will have figured out alternative solutions that you haven’teven imagined yet.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “We need new friends,” said essayist Logan Pearsall Smith. “Some ofus are cannibals who have eaten their old friends up; others must have ever-renewed audiences beforewhom to re-enact an ideal version of their lives.” Smith could have been talking about you Sagittarians inearly 2013. According to my interpretation of the astrological omens, you need some fresh alliances.
