IPD Applied For Grant To Fund Crisis Intervention Specialists
COM
DA Explains That Arrests Are Necessary Element In Keeping Community Safe
Ithaca Police Department has applied for a grant to fund three crisis intervention specialists that will work closely with IPD, according to the City of Ithaca’s acting Chief of Police, JohnDuringJoly. the most recent meeting of the Common Council's Reimagining Public Safety special committee, Joly described the funding request and other steps being taken by the Police Department to meet the goals established in the reimagining public safety plan.
Joly told the committee, “We are ofcers dispatched to a call, and if it turns out it’s really not criminal, but maybe a mental health situation, a crisis intervention specialist would be better trained.” He continued saying, “then we could relieve the o cers from that call and they can go on to other criminal complaints.”
Joly told the Reimagining Committee that the IPD currently has 52 o cers on sta , though several are on light duty due to injuries and medical restrictions. ere is a retirement anticipated and a new hire that will be graduating the Police Academy in October.eActing

Based on IPD’s availability, one of that group will work closely with this crisis manager specialist. “ ere's still more work to be done. But that is what's in process right now,” said Joly.
Joly said that the number one recommendation the city has made to IPD is to “evaluate discrete alternatives to law enforcement response for crisis intervention in wraparound health and human service delivery.”According to Joly, the idea behind bringing three crisis intervention specialists on board is that it will decrease the workload for armed o cers that don’t necessarily need to respond to a mental health crisis and allow them to be better trained when they do have to deal with a mental health situation.
Chief then o ered updates on the Department’s work on the list of recommendations that were part of the City’s Reimagining Plan. Joly noted that more than 1,000 hours were spent last year on cultural competency training, including de-escalation, anti-bias, ethics, addressing the homeless population, and community policing. He said that the IPD and Community Justice Center have been working together on coordinating meetings throughout the community between o cers and citizens. A consultant has been

As president, Cornish said she will always believe in her students, but that they also need to have faith in themselves. “I need you to believe in you,” President Cornish said. “We can believe in you, but it doesn’t mean a thing if you don’t believe in you.”Timothy Downs, Vice President for Finance and Administration and Chief Financial O cer, weighed in on the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead for the college. He said challenges are driven by low enrollments in the fall 2020 and fall 2021 classes, adding that the next
couple of years will be an operating budget challenge. He agreed with Cornish that it will take three to ve years to return to normal enrollment which will allow the IC community to soar yet again.

at recruitment e ort won’t stop at the border. Cornish discussed plans to collaborate with Cornell University and other New York State colleges and universities to recruit international students. Ithaca College, Cornell University, Colgate University and Hamilton College will be working together to travel and recruit students from the UK and throughout Europe, she announced, noting that the IC London Center will help by hosting a gathering in theCornishfuture.
the obstacles she faced when a student, Ithaca College’s new president, La Jerne Terry Cornish, advised students and the IC community of the importance of persistence. “Losing my mother on the rst day of nals freshman year was something that knocked me down,” President Cornish said. “My GPA su ered. As a result of that, I had to work really hard to get back up. I’ve encountered hard things, yet and still I persisted. What I want my students to know is you’re going to experience ups and downs, but you have to keep going.”
“Our students who are going out there to be artists, they’re going to be multidisciplinary out there in the world. In bringing all of these artistic departments together under one roof, we are really putting our students in the strongest position to prepare them for careers in this ever-changing world.”
“Trust yourself. You have all you need to thrive.”
Vice President for Marketing and Enrollment Strategy Laurie Koehler spoke on concerns relating to the value of an education at Ithaca College. “We built on a bunch of di erent strategies to create what we call the Ithaca commitment,” Koehler said. is commitment includes simplifying the aid application process, revamping the nancial aid package and creating a 4-year nancial forecast which will bene t the class that just began at IC. e 4-year forecast breaks down the student's maximum investment in IC when they are admitted to the college, which is rare as it is a common practice for college costs to rise each year, Koehler said.
Noting the continuing specter of COVID-19, Cornish acknowledged that the campus on South Hill is still not completely back to normal. She admitted it will take years to restore the campus’ position as “a world-class comprehensive college.” “ ree to ve to restore, three to ve to soar, and I’m betting that we’re going to soar in six or before,” she added.
Cornish assured the IC community that she is dedicated to the institution for the long-game, but she can only do this if everyone in the IC community comes together. “Our ability to move forward as a college is directly bound to our ability to move forward as a community,” she explained. Cornish asked the IC community to share campus news on their social media and wear IC apparel in their local communities to help raise IC’s pro le. She also urged alumni to increase their engagement by acting as mentors, providing internship opportunities, Zooming into classrooms, visiting the campus, and helping with recruitment of new students.

Cornish was speaking at a September 14 webinar which began what is being called her Ithaca Together Inaugural Tour during which she will discuss her commitments to the IC community including her goals to connect with Ithaca alumni and friends across the country. Cornish said that the tour is a way to provide Ithaca alumni and friends with a way to connect with each other in their own communities. “So it’s perhaps tting that this rst tour engagement takes place in a virtual setting,” she added; “one that enables us to connect in solidarity wherever we are in the“Iworld.”want to hear your stories,” Cornish said. “I want to develop relationships.

Cornish emphasized her excitement for this fall semester because it is the rst semester since the COVID-19 pandemic where all classes o ered are completely inperson. “ is one truly feels like a new beginning,” she said. According to Cornish, more than 1,400 new students have been enrolled in IC this fall. She noted that IC has launched a successful graduate physician assistant program aimed for students to enhance skills that are in a high demand and provide expertise.
also shared her pride for IC’s annual Cortaca Jug football game taking place November 12 in New York City’s Yankee Stadium. She said she is a big sports fan and that one of her fondest memories at IC thus far has been being able to watch a football game and have a view of Cayuga Lake in the background.

Dock-less Bike Sharing May Be Coming Back
Regarding his past experience with Lime, Goodmark said, “Launching a micro-mobility program in Ithaca was a valuable and rewarding experience.” He continued saying, “As part of the CCT team, I am excited to partner with the city and other community stakeholders in launching a new e-bikeshare program enabling local control and long-term sustainability.”
two years Lime Bikes were ubiquitous in the City of Ithaca. But that doesn’t mean they were universally loved. And while many regret their departure, others don’t miss the side e ects of the program.Backin 2018 the City of Ithaca, Bike Walk Tompkins and the Center for Community Transportation (CCT) partnered with a company called Lime Bike to bring a dock-less bike-sharing program to Ithaca. However, in March 2020 the company decided to end its operations in the city and pull all their bikes o the streets—citing a decrease in revenue and safety restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. ere were hints, however, that the company le because of objections to expanding its program to include more powerful rentable
According to CCT Executive Director Jennifer Dotson, when Lime shut down operations in Ithaca in March of 2020, the company le the city with the knowledge and infrastructure in place to create its own local bikeshare service, one with the goal of sustainability, not pro tability.
According to CCT Executive Director Jennifer Dotson, “Je brings a wide range of experience in micro mobility.” She continued saying, “We worked with him when he was managing the Lime eet locally and got to know his responsiveness and dedica-
Acting Mayor Laura Lewis expressed her support for the selection of Goodmark saying, “I’m pleased to hear of Je ’s selection as Director of Micro-Mobility at CCT. He brings a tremendous depth of experience and commitment. I look forward to our work together in the future.”
Althoughscooters. many residents were appreciative of increased accessibility to a more environmentally friendly means of transportation, the city ran into problems with Lime’s dock-less bikeshare protocol. In a dock-less program there are no centralized locations for bikes to be picked up or le o . Instead, riders nd an unused bike, rent it, and then leave it wherever they choose when they’re done. At City meetings residents and business owners would regularly voice complaints about bikes being irresponsibly scattered around causing increased congestion on sidewalks.
as part of a collaborative search process that involved the City of Ithaca and other community stakeholders, the CCT announced that Je Goodmark will be serving as the CCT Director of Micromobility. Goodmark was General Manager of Collegetown Bagels and was previously the Operations Manager for Lime. According to the CCT, he is charged with leading the launch of a new communityrun e-bikeshare program for the city.

organization in Ithaca that advocates for the expansion of bicycling accessibility in the county. Friske said that while many use the bike trails in the county for the purpose of exercise and leisure, many also use it as a transportation path to get into Ithaca from surrounding towns.
e Gateway Trail runs from the South Hill Recreation Way to the parking lot of Home Depot on Route 13, where it will likely connect to the Black Diamond Trail.
Nicole Friske is the associate director of Bike Walk Tompkins, a non-pro t
In addition to overseeing the federal grant, Bike Walk Tompkins has introduced a proposal to the city government called the “Better Bike Network.” e proposal calls for two networks of new bike paths—an “Ithaca’s Flats” network and an “East Hill” network—that would add bike lanes to key streets in both downtown Ithaca and on East Hill.
e Black Diamond Trail is an 8.5mile trail that connects Taughannock Park with Ithaca, allowing people in Trumansburg to commute via bike.
“If you’re a young cyclist it can be very challenging and dangerous,” Heurich said. “I think a lot of parents don't want their kids to ride on the streets without them being present. Sometimes I feel like there's a profound lack of imagination or lack of creative thinking about how we can do these things right.”
Dost Bikes, the company that produces the DROP e-bike says, “ e DROP has a traditional drivetrain that uses the SRAM X5 derailleur to change gears and KMC roller chain to transmit power to the rear wheel. is tried and tested design boasts the lightest weight and highest energy efciency of any design, translating into longer range for those looking to squeeze every last mile from their e-bike.” e Dost Bikes website lists the cost of one DROP ebike at According$3,199.to Dotson, the industry is really focused on electric pedal assist bikes. “We’re not talking about like the really, really Zippy ones that you see going 25 miles an hour. What we're talking about is something that when you pedal, it gives you a little boost,” said Dotson.
In addition, there will be an a ordable option to give more people the ability to participate. Dotson said that there will “almost certainly be an extremely low cost if not free option for something like a monthly pass.”According to Dotson, this more a ordable option will likely resemble the Ithaca Carshare Easy Access program. Membership of the Easy Access program pay a $10 per month fee in exchange for a $15 per month driving credit that can be used for hourly and mileage rates. Unused monthly credits rollover for up to 6 months.
e DROP bikes can be charged with the battery in place, or the battery can be removed to be charged externally. Since CCT is anticipating having hundreds of bikes, they’re planning on having a large reserve of charged batteries that their sta would use to replace depleted bike batteries. According to Dotson, CCT employees will be changing the batteries whenever necessary and putting the bikes back on the street.
While the Ithaca area has miles of bikefriendly trails and paths that are used for exercise and leisure, accessibility of biking as a mode of transportation is still limited. Currently, there are only two streets in the City of Ithaca that have two-way bike lanes: Elmira Road and North Cayuga Street. While some streets have one-way bike lanes or have been optimized to accommodate bicyclists, much of the city’s streets have no bike infrastructure.
“When we’re talking to the local businesses, to the schools and to people who are biking, we hear tons of stories of people using the Dryden Rail Trail and the Black Diamond Trail for commuting,” Friske said.
e paths would connect together areas of the city with large commercial activity. e additional lanes would improve safety, not just connectivity. In Ithaca, there have been notable bicycle accidents that have occurred in intersections with heavy tra c. Additionally, the uneven roads and high amount of potholes can make biking a risk. A study from 2019 by University of Colorado Denver found that American cities that invest in building bicycle infrastructure have signicantly lower rates of cyclist fatalities.
Dotson recently said that CCT is “working with the City on an agreement to allow to proposed program to operate on city streets.” She continued saying, “We don't want to put bikes out before we have an agreement with the City, so we really want to work with the Common Council to make sure that's actually happening and I’m hoping that we can do that very quickly.”
When completed, the Dryden Rail trail will be a 14-mile trail that connects Dryden and Ithaca. Currently, the trail is being completed a er U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand secured $700,000 in federal funding to cover extra budget expenses.
CCT is also in conversations with Cornell about whether or not the university is going to authorize the planned bike share program to operate on campus. However, Dotson recently said, “we're not sure it's exactly going to happen there.”
Federal Grant To Help Connect 2 Ithaca Bike Paths Ithaca
cyclists, whether riding their own bicycle or using a sharing bike from a new program, will soon nd it easier to safely ride through the City. Amongst the provisions of President Joe Biden’s $1.2 trillion Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is billions in funding for the Transportation Alternatives Program, which supports projects for small-scale transportation like beefing up local bicycle facilities and funding the construction of accompanying trails. In Ithaca, $2.2 million has been dedicated towards connecting the Black Diamond Trail and the Gateway Trail, two major bike paths on opposite sides of Ithaca.
Armin Heurich is the former president of the Finger Lakes Cycling Club, a group that coordinates group rides and advocates for bike safety. In 2017, Heurich’s daughter survived an accident while riding her bicycle on Albany Street a er a motorist ran a red light. Since traveling to cities in Europe and seeing their bike infrastructure, Heurich has been supportive of more robust street infrastructure to increase road safety for cyclists.

Friske said they believe that by improving the streets of Ithaca for biking, potential new bikers will then feel safer to begin biking through Ithaca.
the program is expected to launch with around 100 bikes.
While exact prices remain unknown, Dotson says that residents will probably be able to rent a bike using an app on their phone for “between $1.50 and $3 depending on the ride length.” She continued saying, “there’s a fee to unlock and then some number of cents per minute.”
“I imagine that through all of these necessary changes in infrastructure, anyone can make a choice to safely use a bicycle to get to where they need in Tompkins County,” Friske said. “ at's what I envision.”

vending machines sell chips, candy or drinks. But in the main lobby of Cornell’s Mann Library, there’s a vending machine stocked solely with apples.
e machine itself is quite high-tech; the apples sit in individual compartments so that on the o chance an apple rots, it won’t spoil the whole bunch. e machine also has a built-in refrigeration system.
All proceeds from the machine go to SoHo, an organization for and by Cornell graduate students in horticulture. SoHo members take on the task of picking the apples as well as stocking and maintaining the vending machine.
O entimes, the machine holds wellknown apple varieties—Honeycrisp, Gala or McIntosh—in addition to newer varieties developed by Cornell’s apple breeding program like SnapDragon or Firecracker.
“We had Snapdragon in there last fall at some point, and that's a really popular one that was de nitely selling out very quickly, so that had to be restocked o en,” Brittany Cook said. Cook was the SoHo treasurer last year and is currently the webmaster.

Folks interested in literature as well as the visual arts—and a broader geographic perspective—would do well to attend open house events at the Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts (saltonstall.org). Founded in 1995, the foundation hosts juried residencies for New York State artists on the beautiful Ellis Hollow property of the late artist and activist Constance Saltonstall. Upcoming open houses at Saltonstall will take place on October 9 (from 2-4pm) and 27 (5:30-7:30pm).
As they have done since 1973—with an intermission during the depths of the COVID-19 pandemic—the Johnson hosts several concurrent exhibitions, open to the general public. (Admission is free.)
e Syracuse University Museum of Art (museum.syr.edu), an important regional venue, is hosting “Anni Albers: Work With Materials” this fall (August 25-December 11). Featuring textiles and prints by the great German-Jewish Bauhaus artist, the show includes “over 100 objects from the collection of the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation.”
Another regional show will be of particular interest to Ithacans. Mary Shelley’s folk-style painted wood reliefs have long been a memorable part of the local culture. She is having a solo exhibition at the Fenimore Museum (adults $10, children free) in Cooperstown (fenimoreartmusem.org). Opening this week, “Mary Michael Shelley: Art of the Everyday” will run through the end of the year (September 21-December 31).

Cornell University holds an overwhelming number of exhibitions and events: most notably at the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art (museum.cornell.edu) and in galleries run by the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning (aap.cornell.edu).
Several longer-term and upcoming shows and events are worthy of particular notice. (Almost all are free of charge.)
Derived from life drawings, “Figurative” (September 10-October 28), a show of paintings by veteran local abstractionist Michael Sampson, is characteristic of the searching work presented at Corners. Next up is “Quartet” (November 5-December 30), featuring the work of Ithaca College-associated artists Susan Weisend, Carla Stetson, Minna Resnick, and Lin Price. All are known for their eclectic approaches to style, media, and/or technique.
Ecklund is an artist herself, working in ceramics and photography. She will be showing next month (October 1-October 23) with local abstract painter Domenica Brockman at e Gallery at South Hill, inside the South Hill Business Campus (southhillbusinesscampus.com).
Sadly, the museum’s calendar of special events has yet to make a full recovery. Of particular note is their upcoming annual Stoikov Lecture, to be held on September 29, starting at 5:15 p.m. Curator and art historian Navina Haidar, head of the Department of Islamic Art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, will be presenting on the “new” Islamic galleries there—which she helped to establish. e lecture will be accessible online as well as at the museum.
wishing to familiarize themselves with the local exhibitions scene would do well to attend downtown Ithaca’s monthly Gallery Night, held on the rst Friday of every month (from 5 to 8 p.m.). For anybody with a di erent schedule or anybody looking for a less social setting, a self-guided tour will also do. Most galleries rotate shows every month or two and it is possible to see everything important in town.

Dining
About one half of the menu is devoted to “Szechuan Style” o erings.
First of all, it’s not pan-Asian: It’s exclusively and, according to those I trust, authentically Chinese. Second, there’s a myriad of choices that aren’t spicy and the extensive, illustrated, eight-page menu clearly identi es the spicy choices with one to four red pepper icons.
Szechuan refers to the largest province in China: It’s twice the size of Great Britain and has a population of over 80 million.
For years I just drove past Spicy Asian restaurant on Meadow Street because I was put o by the name. I don’t go out of my way for spicy food and I assumed “Asian” meant pan-Asian to include Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and ai. Since there are other alternatives in Ithaca that aren’t necessarily spicy, I was never tempted to eat at Spicy Asian. So, when my editor included it on a list of assignments, I wasn’t thrilled. But now that I’ve been there several times, I really like it and am sorry to have let so much time go by.
I selected an appetizer, Scallion Pancakes Rolled with Beef, ($10.75). I received four deep fried, aky, rolled pancakes, two of which went home with me as it was a generous portion. e rolls are designed to be eaten in by hand since otherwise they come apart, however being deep fried, they’re slightly greasy. Still, it’s a very tasty dish.

“Barbarian” And “Pearl”
won’t o end me one bit if you skip my review of writer-director Zach Cregger’s “Barbarian” (20th Century Studio—Regency Enterprises—New Regency—Almost Never Films—Hammerstone Studios—Vertical Entertainment—Boulderlight Pictures, 2022, 107 min.), as long as you see it. e best way to experience the lm is the way I experienced it: knowing as little about the story as possible. Well, I knew Justin Long was in the picture, and I’ve been a big fan since 1999’s “Galaxy Quest”. I can con rm that Justin Long is in “Barbarian” but no way am I going to spoil how he’s in “Barbarian”. No beating around the bush: the only lame aspect of the lm is its generic title. Like Kevin Smith’s 2010 “Red State”, “Barbarian”’s twisty plot just gets twistier as its perspective keeps shi ing and changing. I really can’t remember the last time a movie had me so unbalanced and uneasy from start to nish.
Part horror movie, part diseased character study, “Pearl” doesn’t feel like anything else on the shelf.
Ti West’s “Pearl” (A24—Little Lamb, 2022, 102 min.) is a prequel to this year’s “X”, shot back-to-back in New Zealand during COVID lockdown. If you haven’t seen “X” which follows a band of people in Texas circa 1979 that drive to an isolated cabin in the woods to make a porno lm, spoilers lie ahead that you might not want.
If West’s “X” is a thoughtful, funny and accurate homage to Tobe Hooper’s 1974 classic “ e Texas Chainsaw Massacre”, the prequel “Pearl” is even riskier and more stylized, a study of a burgeoning psychopath shot in 50’s Technicolor, the Douglas Sirk version of “Carrie” (1976). In “X”, Mia Goth played two roles, a wannabe porn starlet, and a decrepit EC Comics horror hag out to get the lmmakers; Goth was unrecognizable under extensive prosthetics, and I for one didn’t gure out the gag until the end credits. “Pearl” takes the hag character back in time to the previous pandemic in 1919, where Pearl (Goth) has married a soldier currently overseas ghting in WWI.
Pearl dances around the family barn, dreaming of movie roles and stardom so she can escape her small town, her domineering mother (Tandi Wright) and her paralyzed father (Matthew Sunderland). “Pearl”, which Goth and West cooked up as an idea while shooting “X”, is structured like a classic “I wanna be a star” melodrama, except that from the very beginning we see hints and glimpses that underneath Pearl’s go-get-‘em facade is a woman that doesn’t care about anyone but herself, to a psychotic degree. She kills a goose with a pitchfork in the opening scene, and she knows where the alligators like to gather at the lake….
On a dark and stormy night, Georgina Campbell plays a young woman who has rented a rundown house on the outskirts of Detroit because she has a job interview the next day. She nds that a man played by Bill Skarsgard (Pennywise the Clown in the “It” lms) has also rented the house. It turns out the house has a basement with a particularly nasty back room. And that’s as much as you’ll get from me regarding plot. Trust me: I haven’t scratched the surface, and you’ll thank me later. “Barbarian” has a truly diabolical story to tell.

e name “Lev Kitchen” comes from the area known as the Levant. is region includes Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Iraq. A majority of the Ithaca community would not be able to identify the culinary aspects of this area, but Lev Kitchen provides many opportunities to introduce these exceptional avors. Its trademark use of malawach is utilized in almost every dish, and it is the backbone of all of their wrap variations. But, before we get to the main event, we must give credit to the opening act: the Kennebec French Fries. Topped with creamy aioli, tangy goat cheese and spicy peppers, these fries are far from basic. e vibrant tray o ers a fun start to any meal as a sharable and unexpected appetizer.
in calamansi dressing, this citrusy salad leaves you feeling light and eager for the nextNowcourse.back to the true star of the show: malawach. is Yemini bread is utilized in almost every dish on Lev Kitchen’s Menu. According to their website, malawach is “a crispy, aky atbread” that serves as a “carrier of avor”. e shashuka malawach was packed with greens, a creamy soboiled egg and a rich and spicy shakshuka spread. Pair all of that with tangy feta and you have a perfectly balanced bite. If you are someone who craves the sweeter things in life you will de nitely be a fan of the haloumi malawach. Haloumi is a type of cheese made from a combination of cow, goat and sheep milk. It has a mild avor and can be prepared in a variety of ways. Complemented by seasonal jam, almonds and greens, this wrap combines smooth and savory cheese with tart and sweet fruit, making an addictive and tasty combination. Lastly, the za'atar chicken malawach brought velvety hummus and sharp scallions together for a delicious collaboration. e chicken was juicy and each piece was seasoned perfectly. Overall this was a satisfying meal that introduced a plethora of new avors.
e restaurant opened earlier this year with hopes to go against the status quo of the food industry. Prioritizing sustainable practices, food security and overall transparency has allowed Lev Kitchen to create a more ethical business model. Knowing where your food comes from, how it is prepared and who it is prepared by is a privilege in the current environment that fast-food corporations have created.
From quiet dinner spots to lively tap rooms, this area now has more restaurants per capita than New York City. In order to stand out in this food-centric crowd, you have to o er something memorable, and that is exactly what Lev Kitchen does.
Lev Kitchen is a fantastic new addition to the commons, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it becomes an Ithaca staple. As a new business, there is a lot of room to grow, and I cannot wait to see what new and exciting developments come.

Lev: An Exciting Addition
brought in to help develop an inclusive recruiting strategy for law enforcement, Joly explained, adding that the IPD is working with the City’s Human Resources team and the Civil Service Board to see what revisions could be made to hiring procedures and policies that might eliminate potential obstacles for applicants. Finally, he noted that the department has held more than 20 community outreach events which have been very well received.

Tid Bits: If you want a knife or chop sticks, you’ll have to ask. ere are two entrances, one directly o Meadow Street and one around the back parking lot that services other retail establishments.
e balance of the menu is “Chinese Cuisine”. In that Section, under Chef’s Specialties, I had a wonderful Seafood Delight ($19.95). e platter came with a few succulent shrimp, some tender, juicy scallops, a small half lobster tail, and some crab meat. All of these were surrounded by a hearty collection of veggies including carrot slices, broccoli, mushrooms, baby corn and pea pods. e carrots and broccoli were barely cooked,
It should be noted that neither of these dishes had any red pepper icons next to their listing and neither was the slightest bit spicy. Both were accompanied by a bowl of white rice.
Also in the Chef’s Specialties section of the menu I ordered, and liked, Crispy Duck ($16.95). It was boneless so consequently I received about ten thick slices of beautifully seasoned duck with crunchy skin. is dish, too, came with lots of veggies—basically the same as came with the seafood dish—plus some chopped scallions and some thinly sliced mild onions. Everything was surrounded by a tasty brown sauce.
Joly also reported on what appears to be a Catch-22 when it comes to recruiting. He noted that one of the elements that in the past made the Ithaca Police Department an attractive alternative to other law enforcement agencies in the area, was the extensive training it o ered to o cers, giving them opportunities to build their own career ladders. While stressing that he believes the IPD still provides the best training, he said that sta ng shortages have forced training reductions. ose training reductions, in turn, may make it harder to recruit, leading to a problematic cycle.

"When there's somebody in the community who was victimized by crime, whether it's physical violence or violation of their home or their business or sexual offense or being affected by shots fired in your neighborhood," Van Houten continued, "those things have consequences to the rest of the community. And in those cases, when the safety of the community is at risk, the right thing to do is to arrest someone. And the right thing to do is to do it fairly, to do it competently, to do it professionally with as little violence as possible, with as little disruption to the community as possible. But we have to recognize that arrests are part of the world, and they always will be."
All that being said, I nished all the tasty, thick sauce with the soup spoon that was provided. I enjoyed the dish and would recommend it to adults who like lamb.Another
