ATLANTA -- What do you do when you are no longer in love with the person you once couldn't live without?

ATLANTA -- It's budget time, and MARTA is bracing for a huge decline in tax revenue. They expect $130 million less through 2016.

MARTA Spokesman Lyle Harris said the MARTA Board approved a "steady state" service plan for fiscal year 2013 that does not contemplate cuts in bus or rail but that utilizes approximately $33 million in reserves, to balance the budget. Also, employees will see no annual or merit wage increases for the fifth year in a row. They'll also have to contribute more for retirement and health insurance benefits. Capital projects are limited to safety, security, and regulatory requirements.

DECATUR, Ga. -- Eddie has left the Attic. According to his personal Facebook page this morning, Eddie Owen, namesake of metro Atlanta's 20-year-old music venue Eddie's Attic, was fired last Friday night.

Owen, 56, sold the venue bearing his name in 2002, but he stayed on as manager and talent booker in the years since.

Under Owen's leadership, Eddie's Attic became one of the great places in the nation to premiere acoustic music, as well as the first place that many people got wind of artists like the Indigo Girls, Sugarland and John Mayer.

Late last year, Owen became manager of Red Clay Theatre in Duluth, where he books acts under the name "Eddie Owen Presents."
