he election of Donald Trump left Alexandra Bakiewicz and her family heartbroken. Her father is from Poland and became a U.S. citizen 20 years ago. Until the election, he had always felt welcome in America. Not any more, said Bakiewicz, a 20-year-old student at Mohawk Valley Community College.

“He feels as though there’s a large group of people who don’t want people like him here,” she said. “It touches home to me as a ﬁrst-generation American woman that there’s so much hatred for immigrants and refugees. We’re all just trying to make a better life.” That’s why she’s heading to Washington, D.C., to participate in the Women’s March on Washington on Saturday, Jan. 21. The event is projected to draw up to 200,000 people the day after Trump is inaugurated president of the United States. The march reportedly had garnered three times as many bus parking permits as requested for Trump’s inauguration. “It’s important to march and say it’s not OK to discriminate against anyone,” Bakiewicz said. “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Bakiewicz will travel to Washington with two buses sponsored by Women TIES, a local woman-owned business that supports female entrepreneurs in New York. At least 10 other chartered buses are leaving the Syracuse area, including buses organized by Le Moyne College,

the New York State United Teachers union, Syracuse Peace Council and Tully Community Church. Donations helped fund a bus from the Onondaga Nation. At least 10 more buses are leaving from Ithaca and Utica. People are also making their way to the march on their own via trains, planes and automobiles. The idea for the march emerged from a Facebook post the day after the presidential election. Tracy Higginbotham, president of Women TIES, was so disappointed at the election’s outcome that she immediately planned to be in Washington even before the national plan came together. “I believe in pay equality and have fought for that through Women TIES,” she said. “I want to go to stand in solidarity with other women.” The Women’s March organizers make it clear that the event is open to “people of all genders, ages, races, cultures, political afﬁliations and backgrounds.” The Women TIES trip, however, is open only to women. Higginbotham is unapologetic about that. “It’s my business brand and my person-

al decision,” she said. “I have a husband and two sons. I have brothers and a father I adore. I can tell you all the names of the quarterbacks of the NFL. I love men. But I’m inspired to support and help and advance women.” The march, co-founder Tamika Mallory told NPR, “is not anti-Trump.” Rather, it “is pro-women. This is a continuation of a struggle women have been dealing with for a very long time.” A four-page document from march organizers begins with a nod to Hillary Clinton’s “Women’s Rights are Human Rights and Human Rights are Women’s Rights.” Further, according to the group’s guiding vision, “We believe Gender Justice is Racial Justice is Economic Justice.” It also lists violence against women, police accountability, reproductive freedom, LGBTQIA rights, equal pay, and other issues. The march echoes a 1913 event, when thousands of suffragists converged near the White House ahead of Woodrow Wilson’s inauguration to demand the vote. An event in Seneca Falls on Jan. 21 also echoes the fight for women’s right to vote. This year is the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage in New York: three years ahead of the 1920 passage of the 19th Amendment. A rally is planned in Seneca Falls’ First Presbyterian Church, where Alice Paul in 1923 introduced what became known as the proposed, and unsuccessful, Equal Rights Amendment. Syracuse and Seneca Falls events are among 370 Sister Marches connected to the Women’s March on Washington. Local women traveling to Washington include a two-time rape survivor, college-age women and an 89-year-old woman. There are husband-and-wife teams, same-sex couples and three-generation groups. One woman told Higginbotham her son lost his partner to AIDS; she’s always regretted that she was too scared to participate in the AIDS march. Another woman, an engineer, said she’s been shunned for helping younger women challenge sexual discrimination or pay inequality. “Everyone has her own personal reason for going,” Higginbotham said. “I want the new administration to know America is made up of 52 percent women and we stand here in front of you as a group you can’t ignore.” Silvia Macor, a librarian at Roberts Pre-K-8 School in Syracuse, has spent countless hours compiling details for buses organized by the Women’s March CNY Chapter. The Bernie Sanders campaign spurred her to activism; she’s especially concerned about how the environment

will fare under Trump. “I consider this march a way to say, ‘Here we are, these are our concerns. Listen to us,’” Macor said. “It’s about LGBT issues, environmental justice, not to mention health care, abortion and access to birth control.” Macor’s husband is not going with her; she’s traveling with friends. “I hope President-Elect Trump will see what we’re concerned about and hope he’ll pay attention to us,” she said. Bakiewicz has never been to a rally. “I’m looking forward to meeting like-minded people and standing up for what I believe in,” she said. “You shouldn’t just hide because of evil. You should stand up against it.” SNT Renée K. Gadoua is a freelance writer and editor. Follow her on Twitter @ReneeKGadoua.

TRUMP’S PROPOSED AGENDA FUELS CONCERNS AND PROTESTS

The Women’s March on Washington and other protest events connected to Trump’s inauguration highlight the unprecedented unease many Americans feel about his administration. The Syracuse New Times spoke with four Central New Yorkers involved with issues Trump’s policies are likely to affect. “Obamacare is a complete and total disaster.” — Donald J. Trump, Jan. 10, 2017, press conference “Planned Parenthood does a really good job at a lot of different areas. But not on abortion. So I’m not going to fund it if it’s doing the abortion. I am not going to fund it.” — Feb. 21, 2016, NBC’s Meet the Press

If Trump and the Republican Party succeed in repealing the Affordable Care Act and defunding Planned Parenthood, expect an increase in unplanned pregnancies and maternal mortality rates, said Betty DeFazio of Planned Parenthood of Central and Western New York. About 7,500 people in Onondaga County access health care through Medicaid and/or the Title X family planning program, and more than half those people go to Planned Parenthood for services. “Who is going to serve those people? There’s no capacity to make up that gap,” DeFazio said. Planned Parenthood and its allies are ready to ﬁght threats to their funding and services. The day after congressional Republicans moved to repeal the ACA, New York Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman introduced legislation aimed at protecting and enhancing New Yorkers’ access to free (without a co-pay)

contraception. The number of people offering support is overwhelming, DeFazio said. “People are coming in off the street with cash and checks,” she said. Planned Parenthood’s Annual Day of Action in Albany is set for Jan. 30. The lobbying day last year drew about 400 people; this year more than 1,500 have signed up, she said. The support “shows how much people rely on Planned Parenthood because there isn’t anyone else to turn to,” DeFazio said. “Planned Parenthood is not going anywhere. We’ll continue to be the advocates for reproductive health.” “When we have accomplished all of our enforcement goals, and truly ended illegal immigration for good, including the construction of a great wall, and the establishment of our new lawful immigration system, then and only then will we be in a position to consider the appropriate disposition of those who remain.” — Aug. 31, 2016, Phoenix speech Since the election, Diane Chappell-Daly’s clients have been worried what will happen to them. “Deportation is the top concern,” said Chappell-Daly, a Syracuse lawyer who works on immigration. President Obama’s November 2014 executive order expanded the 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program that allowed immigrants under 30 years old who arrived as children to apply for deportation deferrals and for work permits. “They came to the United States not of their own volition,”

Chappell-Daly said. “They had background checks. They got Social Security, they pay taxes, they go to school.” Now those people worry that the U.S. government will use information they provided for DACA deferral requests to deport them. The fear has “created this shadow society,” she said. “People can’t participate fully in the community. They don’t send their kids to school. They take jobs that are dangerous. They’re afraid to report crimes.” She’s heartened by Syracuse Mayor Stephanie Miner’s support. “So long as I am mayor, the resources of this city, including the Syracuse Police Department, will not be used to help enforce federal anti-immigrant policies,” Miner said during her Jan. 12 State of the City address. “We’re in a time when the administration is putting forth extremely conservative and out-of-touch policies,” Chappell-Daly said. “My hope is Congress will be responsible and humane.” “I’m just for traditional marriage.” — June 28, 2015, CNN’s State of the Union Young people at the Q Center are watching carefully to see what the new administration does on LGBTQ issues. “While Trump was wrapping himself in a pride flag at some events, he was putting people in powerful positions who clearly have anti-LGBTQ positions,” said Moe Harrington O’Neill, development manager for the Q Center, which provides education, support groups and programming for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth and their families. “Regardless of what people want to think, there is a permission that has been given to people that are more conservative or alt-right to be able to say what they want to say regardless of how it makes other people feel,” Harrington said. Anti-gay and anti-trans attitudes already harm upstate youth, she said. “Our LGBTQ homeless numbers rival New York City’s,” she said. “Twenty-five percent of the kids who come to our centers are homeless. They’re thrown out for who they are and who they love. They’re already struggling.” Trump’s behavior has normalized bullying for already marginalized people, she said. “These are kids that suffer at the hands of real painful exclusion and literally feel there is nowhere for them to go and no one supports them at all,” she said. “There are devastating, forever consequences to bullying.”

Q Center staff are “trying to be positive and proactive,” Harrington said. “They need to stay focused and vigilant in their own lives and make sure local politicians know their concerns.” “(The phrase) ‘black lives matter’ is very divisive. The first time I heard it, I said, ‘You have to be kidding.’” — July 12 2016, Fox News Channel’s The O’Reilly Factor Herve Comeau, a Black Lives Matter (BLM) organizer in Syracuse, remembers Trump’s dismissal of the movement. “I don’t think he gets it all,” he said. “We’re not anti-police. We don’t stand against the lives of anyone. We think every life is sacred. But we know black lives are disproportionally at risk.” Trump’s comments have caused “general anxiety and fear,” Comeau said. “There are people who are really terrified about what’s going to happen.” Fear seems well placed: The Southern Poverty Law Center has collected reports of nearly 900 incidents of harassment and intimidation since Election Day. “Everything Trump has said and tweeted has given everyone the permission to be cruel,” Comeau said. “Although I’ve never believed in trickle-down economics, I do believe in trickle-down racism, trickle-down misogyny, trickle-down hatred.” Those attitudes don’t come just from Trump, Comeau noted. “Trying to pin this on an individual and not recognizing the problems inherent to American culture and to the Republican Party is problematic,” he said. “Getting rid of Trump wouldn’t be enough. It’s an entire structure that’s racist and misogynist.” Comeau anticipates a strong showing for Saturday’s rally at Syracuse’s Federal Building. And like the BLM events in July, he expects the crowd to include lots of young black people. “The event is a show of solidarity that we’re not going to be quiet and we’re not going to forget the things he said and we’re going to hold people accountable,” he said.

ONONDAGA LAKE: READY FOR ITS CLOSEUP Onondaga Historical Association (OHA) executive director Gregg Tripoli describes Beneath the Surface: The Storied History of Onondaga Lake as “more about the facts than an advocacy piece.” But the two-hour film that premieres Friday, Jan. 20, comes across as a love letter. “It tells the amazing history of the lake and how it has had national and international impact over centuries that a lot of people don’t know about,” said Tripoli. The film opens with a Google Earth image, then an aerial view that brings Onondaga Lake into focus. It may be easy to dismiss the body of water as “a small lake in the middle of nowhere” except that “it somehow ended up right in the middle of everything,” the narrator, Mark Eischen, says. Eischen is a consultant with Otto Media, a Syracuse video production agency that worked with the OHA to create Beneath the Surface, which draws heavily on images from the OHA’s collection. Local officials and experts appear in the film, which provides a roughly chronological story of the lake, beginning with the Haudenosaunee, or the Iroquois Confederacy. The film connects the Haudenosaunee Great Law of Peace with suffrage, lacrosse and environment cleanup. “It’s one of the very special places in New York,” Onondaga Nation Faith Keeper Oren Lyons says early in the film. For most Central New Yorkers, much of the material

will be familiar. But there are some surprises, even for local history buffs. Viewers will hear much about salt, for example, including a nod to our local culinary specialty, salt potatoes. Viewers may be surprised to learn the significance England, France and the Netherlands placed on this relatively small body of water as early as the 1600s. Settlers (or colonists) recognized the financial potential of the lake’s salt springs. “It was exaggerated on maps because they were ascribing so much importance to it,” Tripoli said. The film guides viewers through the salt industry, the development of Syracuse and the Erie Canal’s role in the western expansion of trade and settlements. It describes the role of Syracuse’s salt industry in the Civil War. It also describes the heyday of the lake’s resorts and recreation in and along the water. Think ice boat races and “Ya gotta regatta.” Viewers get a hint of material likely to be showcased in the new Regional Aviation History Museum at Hancock International Airport. The OHA will work with the state on the new museum, which Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced last week as part of the airport’s $45.1 million renovation. The film describes the growth of industry that led to the

lake’s pollution, and slows down a bit as it summarizes cleanup and remediation efforts. Although Tripoli said the film does not take sides, it does note the Onondaga Nation’s criticism of Honeywell’s efforts to clean up the lake. “It’s a good story,” Tripoli said, “It gives people a reason to see why the lake is so important and worthy of attention.” Oren Lyons gets the last word, reminding viewers of the Haudenosaunee connection to the lake.

Miner’s delivery had been stiff, with pauses seeming to anticipate audience response that, at times, did not come. This year her pace was steady, her tone commanding attention from a standing-room-only crowd, which responded spontaneously to mentions of returning $14.25 million worth of property to the tax rolls, contracting with at least 20 percent of minority- and women-owned businesses, establishing a $15-an-hour minimum wage for city employees and establishing a ﬁve-year residency requirement for new city hires. But a sustained standing ovation met Miner’s pledge to establish Syracuse as one of the nation’s more than 300 Sanctuary Cities, “I want to take this opportunity,” she announced, “to erase some of the uncertainty and fear for our neighbors who happen to be immigrants. To that end, I promise you that so long as I am mayor, the resources of this city, including the Syracuse Police Department will not be used to help enforce federal anti-immigrant policies. We do so not only because it’s a moral imperative. We do so to honor our

history.” Returning to the image of new school shoes as potential, Miner presented the scope of challenge facing contemporary city residents. “When I started this journey,” she reﬂected, “I spoke of renewing the promise of Syracuse. In the last seven years, I have seen that promise again and again: young people dealt a tough hand who make their way to college and achieve their full potential, community projects that seemed perpetually stuck come to fruition, places like this (the Hotel Syracuse) thought lost, lifted up again to thrive in an exciting new era.” But over those seven years, Stephanie Miner has learned that renewing that promise is not something accomplished by any politician. “It’s something we do together,” she maintained. “Syracuse’s promise isn’t something that can be put on a billboard, or in a press release, or on the front page of the newspaper. A community’s promise isn’t a promise made in words: not by politicians, or developers, or anyone else. It’s something we must believe; then we must build — together. SNT

Near the door, a smiling floor manager stands at a podium, greets diners with a warm hello and leads them to tables set simply with cloth napkins, flatware and Mason jar water glasses.

The smell of cardamom and other spices wafts into the dining room and servers pop in and out of the kitchen, delivering meals, offering more tea and removing spent dishes.

bles, and a short menu that is designed to both appeal to guests and meet the needs of students honing their skills and craft. “This is our classroom,’’ says Adam Sudmann, program manager for Onondaga Community College Workforce Development. “We’re all learning here.’’ With Love, Pakistan is a workforce training restaurant and entrepreneur incubator, staffed by six nontraditional students. It’s a collaborative project of Onondaga Community College and CenterState CEO. The cuisine will change every six months, reflecting the national or regional cuisine of its “restaurateur in residence.’’ For its inaugural run, With Love is being guided by Sarah Robin, 31, a native of Pakistan who came to Central New York as a refugee four years ago. She recently completed CenterState CEO’s Up Start Business Development Program and plans to open her own restaurant in Syracuse in the near future. Pakistani cuisine is complex, varies from place to place and changes with the seasons. Staple ingredients include

onions, garlic, ginger and a long list of spices, including cardamom, coriander, cumin and mint. Meals are built around vegetables, legumes, rice, lamb, poultry and other meats, soups, stews and curries. Few dishes are made in a hurry. They’re made with great attention to detail and with love, says Robin, who beams with pride when customers compliment her cuisine. With Love’s menu is short and sweet, as it details the ingredients in each dish as well as the intended lesson for students. The apple pakora appetizer, for example, is made with Granny Smith apples, chickpea batter and chaat masala, a blend of ground spices (such as cumin and coriander). Student-chefs fry the battered apple chunks to golden brown, before plating them with a garnish of mint-cilantro yogurt. The haleem main course is a lesson in slow cooking: Minced Halal chicken, wheat, barley, lentils and “too many spices to list,’’ cooked until it reaches a pasty consistency. One dessert is offered: Gajar halwa, a blend of carrots, ghee (clarified butter), cardamom, almonds and pistachios, served warm in a ramekin. It’s savory and comforting, a reminder for Robin of winter in Pakistan. With Love, Pakistan opened in early December and, after the bumps and challenges and tweaks that come with starting a new restaurant, is now “hitting its stride,’’ Sudmann says. It’s fitting that the restaurant and training program is taking root on the North Side, a histor-

ic neighborhood of immigrants that in recent years has welcomed an influx of refugees from Vietnam, Burma, Somalia, Bhutan, Nepal and other countries. Diners are finding the place thanks to positive word of mouth: Sudmann had to turn away more than 20 guests on a recent Friday, as another dozen people patiently waited for tables. The restaurant can now accept credit cards and may one day serve beer and wine. And now that the students are getting comfortable with their fundamental tasks and responsibilities, they’re starting to flex their creative muscles. They might “stretch’’ the menu, Sudmann says, and add some daily specials. Last week, the students experimented with a salmon salad with Pakistani flavor: seared salmon with a garam masala crust, served on a bed of greens tossed with a cumin-infused vinaigrette and garnished with cashews and pickled carrot ribbons. Grilled salmon and salmon salad is common on restaurant menus, Sudmann said in a Facebook post, so searing fish is a good skill for his students to have. Sudmann describes his role at With Love as one of leader, instructor, coach, custodian and mentor. He has experience in restaurants and in producing large-scale events. Sudmann is also the founder of My Lucky Tummy, a series of pop-up dinners in Syracuse spotlighting international home cooking prepared by members of the local immigrant and refugee community. (The next My Lucky Tummy event is scheduled for Feb. 4; visit myluckytummy.com for details.) “This is much different, much smaller,’’ Sudmann says. “It has been really interesting to focus on all the details of running a restaurant.’’ Sarah Robin, the “restaurateur in residence,’’ says With Love gives her confidence in cooking her recipes and modifying them for an audience outside the home, as well as critical experience in managing and running a restaurant and interacting with customers. “I’m following my dreams,’’ she says. “This makes me so happy and so proud.’’ With Love is open for lunch Tuesdays and Wednesdays, noon to 2 p.m., and for dinner on Thursdays and Fridays, 5 to 8 p.m. For information, call 870-3861 or visit withloverestaurant.com or facebook. com/withlovesyracuse.

A championship season is the primary goal for the Syracuse Silver Knights soccer team By David Armelino A Syracuse Silver Knights indoor soccer game at the Onondaga County War Memorial Arena is not your run-of-the-mill sporting event. Before the game, during breaks in the action and between periods, there is always some form of entertainment going on that caters to families. The first home game of this season, for example, featured a Star Wars Night promotion, where the first 1,000 kids received Blue Rock Energy-sponsored light swords. Fans were treated to a light sword duel in the middle of the field during one of the breaks, in addition to meeting members of the Mandalorian Mercs, a group of Star Wars enthusiasts that travels the country dressed in full costume. Mounting a promotion on this scale doesn’t happen by accident. Every home game has a dedicated script that players, team officials and even referees will follow, according to Allen LaVenture, Knights vice president of sales and marketing. “It’s about 20 pages long. That’ll include all of the reads, all of the mentions and all

1.18.17 - 1.24.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

the moving pieces,” LaVenture said. “Pretty much anything that happens in the arena on game day, I have a checklist that I’ll go through.” A Silver Knights contest offers a high-energy, fast-paced version of soccer that is conﬁned to the space of a hockey rink, making for action aplenty, fewer stoppages in play and more scoring. Add LaVenture’s brand of sideline entertainment and you get an evening of glitz and kicks that lured a crowd of more than 3,600 people on opening night. LaVenture said it doesn’t matter if people are fans of soccer going into a Silver Knights game, because when the game is over, they’ll still have had a good time. “People who come go, ‘I hated soccer, but now I’m a fan,’” LaVenture said. “Is it the event that made them a fan? Or is it the game that made them a fan? At the end of the day, if it’s a little bit of both, that’s ﬁne.” Turning the game into a spectacle is a business model that worked like gangbusters in the past for the Syracuse Crunch hockey team, where LaVenture worked from 1994 to

2001. He noted that while fans of the Crunch are now more educated about hockey, it hasn’t always been that way. “If you talk to the people who have been season ticket holders for 22 years, they’ll tell you that in the beginning, the Crunch was a circus,” he said. “But if you look at what they do at the Crunch games now, it’s more about hockey and less about the event. They don’t need all the bells and whistles the way they did 20 years ago. If we provide people with an entertaining time, and they learn about the game, then they truly become soccer fans.” Now in their sixth season in the Major Arena Soccer League (MASL), the Knights have already outlasted other local soccer teams that came prior to them. Their immediate predecessor was the Syracuse Salty Dogs, an outdoor team which played for two seasons in 2003 and 2004 when they shared turf space with the Syracuse Chiefs ball club at then P&C Stadium. “It’s year six, so new teams that come into the market, outside of the Crunch and the Chiefs, they have one year and they’re gone,” said Knights president, general manager and head coach Tommy Tanner, who also logged time as an assistant coach with the Salty Dogs. “We’re building momentum, I think.” Because the team has managed to stick around for six years, it has given players, coaches and management the chance to build relationships and interact within the community. The Knights offer soccer camps that take place at the Central New York Family Sport Center on Jones Road in Baldwinsville. The facility is owned and operated by Pete Ramin, vice president of the Knights, and serves as the team’s practice facility during the season. It was in this building that Andrew Coughlin began playing soccer as a child in one of the center’s youth leagues. After remaining in touch with the Ramin family over the years and training with the team during school breaks, Coughlin would eventually get his chance to play. Now in his ﬁrst season as the Knights’ starting goalkeeper, he is living his dream of playing at the professional level. “Last year when I came back from school after I graduated, (Knights goalkeeper) Brian O’Quinn got hurt. They needed to sign a keeper for the upcoming games, so they signed me,”

Coughlin said. “I had a decent first two games and continued to play with the team, and now I’m still with them. So it’s an exciting little journey to be on the team.” The Knights currently have eight players who grew up in the surrounding Central New York area, according to Tanner. With players being so close to home, this allows the team to interact with the community, such as hosting outings with fans at Dave and Buster’s, one of the Knights’ sponsors. “We have an extremely approachable team,” LaVenture said. “Baseball is difficult because they’re always traveling when they’re not playing. Hockey is the same way; their schedule is so incredibly busy. We have the ability for our guys to be a part of the community, for kids to talk to them.” For many players, being a part of the Silver Knights has helped them carry out a lifelong aspiration. “Training with the team over breaks in college, I wasn’t sure I’d ever want to play,” Coughlin admitted. “Then I got into my first game with the Silver Knights, and I loved it! The adrenaline I get from being in that arena with all the fans cheering, it’s pretty awesome.” LaVenture also stresses the importance of local connections. “We have a really cool gem here that is attainable,” he said. “I don’t know how attainable it is for a kid growing up in Syracuse to become an NFL player, although it’s happened. But this is real. This can happen.” The Silver Knights pride themselves on being Syracuse’s only real local franchise. Unlike players from the Crunch and Chiefs, who represent their respective teams’ professional clubs and can come and go at the mercy of those clubs’ higher-ups, the Knights are their own entity and answer only to the team’s management. Now at the midway point in their season, the Silver Knights are on the verge of becoming a contender for a title, with their current win-loss record of 4-5, just three games behind the Eastern Division leading Baltimore Blast. Tanner believes consistency within the team’s roster, in addition to the occasional outside player signing, has led to its success. “We were really close last year to getting into the conference finals. We’ve gotten better every year,” Tanner said. “Our nucleus of players has stayed the same, which I think is really, really important. And I think our additions make this the strongest team we’ve had to date. I think our shot to win a championship is as good as anyone else’s.” Bryan O’Quinn, the Knights’ head coach in his first year, also thinks his club is on the cusp of a championship: “We’ve been a playoff team for three or four years now in a row, and it’s time for us to get over that hurdle and look to be a championship team, this year more than any year. We have more depth and more talent on our roster, so it consistently creates competition among the players to elevate their game and play, which is super-exciting for us.” The future looks bright for the Knights and the MASL. The league is currently sitting at 17 teams, while Toronto has already committed to forming a franchise in 2018. “I think (the MASL is) taking the right steps to create a top-tier league for indoor soccer,” Coughlin said, “to get the people in the arenas with the right teams in front of them. They’re making sure the ownership groups are taking care of the teams. I think it’s definitely on its way up.” The Silver Knights begin their second half of the season after a two-week break with an away game on Friday, Jan. 20. Beyond this, they have just four home games left on their War Memorial schedule: Sunday, Jan. 29, 1 p.m., against the Chicago Mustangs; Friday, Feb. 3, 7:30 p.m., with the Milwaukee Wave; Friday, Feb. 24, 7:30 p.m., against the Baltimore Blast; and Sunday, Feb. 26, 4 p.m., against the Florida Tropics. The team is holding a buy-one, get-one sale for its next two home games, so patrons who get tickets for the Jan. 29 game also receive ducats for the Feb. 3 game. Tickets are $17.50 for adults and $14.50 for children. Call 435-8000 for information. SNT

SU HOOPSTERS HOPE TO AVOID BUBBLE BURSTING

s the Syracuse University men’s basketball team heads into the most challenging part of its schedule, the Orange’s mission is clear: Move up in the RPI, or it’s R.I.P. for the team’s NCAA Tournament chances.

The RPI is the Ratings Percentage Index, which is a statistical way to rank teams based on their strength of schedule. Like it or not, the RPI is one of the key tools the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee uses to select and seed the 68 tournament teams. Last year, the Orange received a No. 10 seed in the Midwest Region of the tournament despite a 19-13 record and a 1-5 finish to the season that seemingly wiped out SU’s impressive 8-1 stretch that followed a 0-4 start in the Atlantic Coast Conference. The NCAA Tournament Selection Committee chairman, University of Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione, said the Orange received one of the 36 at-large bids because it had more wins (five) against teams ranked in the top 50 of the RPI than other “bubble” teams that were left out. The Orange, of course, silenced all of the “bracketologists” who said they didn’t belong in the tournament by reaching the Final Four before losing to North Carolina. This season, the Orange dug itself into a deep hole by losing five non-conference games for the first time in coach Jim Boeheim’s 41-year tenure. Following Monday’s 85-68 loss at North Carolina (No. 9 in the AP poll and No. 11 in the RPI), Syracuse was 11-8 overall and 3-3 in the ACC with just one win over a top-50 RPI team (No. 35 Pittsburgh). The Orange, incidentally, was ranked No. 138 in the RPI on Monday; the rankings are updated every day.

1.18.17 - 1.24.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

So, to at least equal last season’s “bubble” tournament resume, the Orange will need to win eight more games with at least four of those wins against top-50 RPI teams. The opportunity is certainly there because the ACC is loaded with quality teams. Of SU’s remaining 12 regular-season games, 10 are against top-50 RPI teams: No. 20 Notre Dame, No. 29 Wake Forest, No. 8 Florida State, No. 35 North Carolina State, No. 18 Virginia, No. 45 Clemson, No. 27 Pittsburgh, No. 9 Louisville twice, and No. 7 Duke. “We need some big wins to boost our resume to get to where we want,” said fifth-year senior forward Andrew White. “So I’m looking forward to that schedule. “It’s early. The momentum shifts in college basketball are so drastic and I don’t think this team is out yet,” White continued. “I think if everybody just brings their best every night, the season’s not over. But if we give up on the season this far in advance of the end, we’re not made of much so you always want to be optimistic in college basketball because it doesn’t take so much to get the ball rolling.” After embarrassing blowout losses to St. John’s Dec. 21 at the Carrier Dome and at Boston College Jan. 1, the Orange bounced back with impressive home wins against Miami and Pittsburgh. A 10-point loss at Virginia Tech was followed by a 76-53 revenge romp over Boston College at the Dome before Monday night’s lopsided loss at North Carolina.

The common denominator throughout the season has been SU’s 2-3 zone defense. When it’s active and the players rotate and find the open man, SU has won the game. When it’s not, SU has lost, often in record-setting ways. “Coach (Boeheim) said at the end of the game, Tyler (Lydon) did, too, this is our defense,” freshman center/forward Taurean Thompson said after the Boston College game. “If we play great defense at our best, we can beat anybody in the country. We truly feel that.” In their first meeting, Boston College scored 96 points, shot 16 for 26 from 3-point range and guards Jerome Robinson and Ky Bowman combined for 52 points. In their second game, the Eagles scored 53 points, shot 8 for 22 from beyond the arc and Robinson and Bowman combined for 12 points. “We have to know that the ACC is crazy,” Thompson said. “They beat us by 20 and we beat them by 20. Anybody can beat anybody. We just have to go out there and play hard. That’s it.” Following SU’s ninth game, a 99-77 win over Boston University Dec. 10 at the Dome that lifted the Orange’s record to 6-3, here’s what Boeheim had to say about his Jekyll-and-Hyde team and its NCAA Tournament chances: “What our record is doesn’t matter. If we play well the rest of the way and in the ACC, we’ll be fine. If we can’t play well the rest of the way or in the ACC, then we never got there. And that’ll be the answer. It is what it is. It isn’t what we think it should be or what we hope it will be. It’s what you see out there. We have glaring weaknesses and we have to get better. Period. “I may say that after 19 (games), that we’re not where we need to be,” Boeheim added. “(That) we just aren’t there.” The Orange has played 20 games now, and Boeheim and the rest of us still don’t know where this team is going to end up. But as White said, and as we learned last year, things can change quickly and if that change means moving up in the RPI, then this topsy-turvy season can still have a happy ending. “We’ve all worked for opportunities like this our whole lives, so I’m just going to go play as hard as I can and expect to win,” said fifth-year senior point guard John Gillon. “You’re where you want to be if you win games like that.” SNT

TV gabfest gig for insomniacs who enjoy Corden’s carpool karaoke shtick. For this area premiere, director Dustin Czarny wisely opts for a furious pace that keeps all the random bits of business in constant motion. One running gag, for instance, gets funnier every time the word “Woolworth’s” is uttered. The dozen-plus cast members run the gamut from mobster types portrayed by Jim Magnarelli, Alan Stillman and Josh Taylor (sporting a moptop wig), to ditz-and-giggles scene-stealers including Alicia Cobb and especially Chris Lupia as a wannabe thespian. Katie Deferio also lends take-charge spunkiness to her Dolly, Francis’ love interest. Abel Searor, who plays an Anderson Cooper-styled foil to Rita Worlock’s Kathy Griffin as co-hosts during the Syracuse New Times Syracuse Area Live Theater (SALT) awards, offers extreme drollery as waiter Gareth, while Binaifer Dabu as the pacemaker-ridden Alfie runs amuck beneath her frizzled fright wig. Most of these characters also warble in front of standup microphones for several music hall numbers from the Lonnie Donegan era, a nod to the Fab Four’s early fascination with that style of music. And as Francis, Josh Mele literally throws himself into his vivid performance. At one point Francis embarks on a self-reflective monologue that ends up being a split-personality dialogue between his roles as the minders, as he punches and slaps himself during a confrontation that ends with a garbage-can lid crashing onto his noggin. One Man, Two Guvnors showcases the hilarious highs that low comedy can achieve. SNT

At the halfway mark of One Man, Two Guvnors, clueless Cockney loafer/leading man Francis Henshall breaks the fourth wall and chats with theatergoers about the parallel plots between Guvnors and Carlo Goldoni’s commedia dell’arte classic Servant of Two Masters (1746). There might be three people who know about that literary connection during any given audience of Central New York Playhouse’s current production (running through Jan. 28). Everyone else will be constantly guffawing over the merry mix-ups, pratfalls and groin kicks that accumulate throughout this slapstick farce. Playwright Richard Bean embellishes the Goldoni template with its move to England’s Brighton section circa 1963, just prior to the birth of The Beatles. In a plot that throws credibility out the window from the get-go, skiffle band member Francis (Josh Mele) ends up being a “minder” to gangster Roscoe (Lauren Puente). Yet Roscoe is secretly Rachel, wearing an unconvincing disguise to pose as her late twin brother in order to collect a debt. Then the perpetually starving Francis gets a second minder job for another gangster, Stanley Stubbins (Josh Taylor), who is Rachel’s boyfriend and is still on the lam after bumping off her brother. This leads to the first act’s climactic set piece at a pub, as Francis’ attempts to keep his employers from colliding, even as he tries to satisfy his hunger pains, albeit with some interference from waitstaffers Gareth (Abel Searor, also music director) and Alfie (Binaifer Dabu). Guvnors’ smash Broadway run resulted in major acclaim for James Corden’s incarnation of Francis, which led to a Tony Award and his current late-night

GREEN PASTURES FOR GREENSKY BLUEGRASS

hen Dave Bruzza, Michael Arlen Bont and Paul Hoffman met at a Kalamazoo open mike in 2000, there was an instant connection. But that simple Michigan meeting didn’t just lead to more open mikes and eventually gigs: It led to national tours with the formation of Greensky Bluegrass. Hoffman, the mandolin player, vocalist and songwriter for the group, says that even through 17 years of playing, the band hasn’t ever lost a member, it has only added to the tribe. Aside from Bruzza (guitar, vocals, songwriting) and Michael Arlen Bont (banjo, vocals), the outfit also includes Anders Beck (dobro, resophonic guitar) and Michael Devol (bass, vocals). The group received major validation when they won the 2006 Telluride Bluegrass Festival Band Competition. By 2011 Rolling Stone was hailing them as the new representation of bluegrass for an entire generation, as they were playing with people like Larry Keel, Railroad Earth and Del McCoury. “It’s all different and all the same at the same time,” Hoffman reflects. “We’ve come a long way and had some monumental achievements: playing Red Rocks, playing with Phil Lesh. Some are small and some are big, but it’s been like climbing a stairway. We’ve had consistent growth, not some big, overnight success that landed in our lap. I’m stoked to be able to do what we do and be more meaningful for people every time. It’s more than we could have asked for.” Greensky Bluegrass plays the Westcott Theater, 524 Westcott St., on Wednesday, Jan. 25, 8 p.m., preceded by opening act Fruition. Tickets are $20, available at thewestcotttheater.com. More information on the band is available at greenskybluegrass.com. While Hoffman was traveling through a snowy Colorado wonderland, he took a few minutes to speak with the Syracuse New Times about the growth of the band, their new album and how many things have changed and some have stayed exactly the same. When did you start playing music? I started viola when I was 9 or 10, then guitar and mandolin when I was 18. I saw David Grisman play and was intrigued, so I bought one. It was serendipitous that I became a mandolin player.

1.18.17 - 1.24.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

Before you won Telluride, what were gigs like? We had a gig where they paid us $200 and gave us a place to stay. We went all the way to West Virginia (from Michigan) for that. How did things change? Telluride is not a huge festival, maybe 10,000 people, but it has a really wide grasp on the country. People from all over go to it. So after we won, we’d run into someone in Wisconsin or Iowa or Atlanta who would say, “We saw you win the contest!” It was a little whisper in everyone’s ear. It put wind in our sails that we weren’t wasting our time, so we started really going for it. All these albums later, we’re still doing the same thing: trying to get more people to see us in every town. We’re trying to bring new ideas and try new things with our instruments that people haven’t done before. I’m honored and excited to go places with our music. I’ve gone across this entire country more times than I can count. There aren’t a lot of highways I haven’t been on. It’s awesome that music can do that. That contest gave us the confidence that we were onto something and not just wasting time and postponing life. Your new album is titled Shouted, Written Down & Quoted. What are you trying to say with that? There’s a lyric in one of the songs on the album (“Hold On”): “But there’s always two sides to the way both of the stories go/ sometimes things left better unspoken/ should be shouted, written down and quoted.” There are obvious things you shouldn’t say, where things will get assumed and then messed up. That’s the easy meaning. It’s interesting what the title has to say. We’re not intentionally saying something political. But it’s not unintentional, either.

It’s Douglas Fairbanks, the highest-paid actor during World War I. He and Charlie Chaplin were the charismatic front men used to rally support for war bonds in America. It’s a stock image we thought worked well with the title. When you’re in the studio making a record, it’s unromantic. People are on their phones a lot during downtime. Our bass player started designing examples for a cover. Some were ridiculous, some were serious. The ridiculous ones were great. We pursued this one with an artist and really loved it. Tell me about your writing style. I try to write from the perspective of every man’s voice. It’s specific and vague. I’m not trying to be vague for effect; I’m trying to be vague for the art form. I like to remain neutral and unbiased, but when I write songs, I’m deliberate. Commentary or analysis are not my job as the artist. I said what I meant and if I comment, it can take away the experience of the listener. In a song it’s about what you say, or don’t say. I can write a song about my dog dying, but if I never write the word dog in it, it can apply to some greater idea of loss and heartbreak I could never do deliberately in the hope it elevates the art. How has your songwriting changed over time? Myself and the guitar player are the primary writers. We’ve changed as we’ve learned things. In some ways it becomes more advanced and more complex as I learn more about my instrument and my craft. It’s a paradox of learning to do less. As you get older, you feel less of a need to prove your craft with more: more notes, more words, more tricks. What advice do you have for artists who want to do what you do? It’s just important to have fun. The other bands I know who are succeeding and doing well are the bands who enjoy what they do and have fun with it. There’s no secret. If the band is having fun every night, it’s worth witnessing. That joy and dedication is reciprocal. People feel it and they see it. They want to witness it. They want to enjoy it. SNT

EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH: ROBIN TURK Robin Turk, Employee of the Month for January, has been at the company for just over a year but has already had a chance to make a big impact. She was hired as a graphic designer for the quarterly trade journal Welding & Gases Today in December 2015, and in October she was promoted to creative services manager for the four All Times companies, which also include the Syracuse New Times, Family Times and Spinnaker Custom Products. Robin has an associate’s degree in

website design and management from Mohawk Valley Community College and a bachelor’s degree in graphic design and communication from SUNY Empire State College. Like all Employees of the Month, Robin was nominated by her coworkers, who praised her success in bringing together all the company’s graphic designers to work as a team; her commitment to excellence in design; and her ability to handle interruptions without difficulty. One coworker summed up Robin by saying she “has a low-key manner that sometimes camouflages her enthusiasm for great design. She has a willingness to listen to others’ suggestions, focuses on issues and leaves people feeling listened to and appreciated.”

Frenchman named Laurent Aigon grew up near an airport, and always daydreamed of becoming a commercial pilot. Sadly, he didn’t do well enough in school to fulfill his wish. Yet he was smart and ambitious enough to accomplish the next best thing: assembling a realistic version of a Boeing 737 cockpit in his home. With the help of Google, he gathered the information he needed, and ordered most of the necessary parts over the Internet. The resulting masterpiece has enabled him to replicate the experiences of being a pilot. It’s such a convincing copy that he has been sought as a consultant by organizations that specialize in aircraft maintenance. I suggest you attempt a comparable feat, Taurus: creating a simulated version of what you want. I bet it will eventually lead you to the real thing. be inclement where you live, so you may be resistant to my counsel. But I must tell you the meanings of the planetary omens as I understand them, and not fret about whether you’ll act on them. Here’s my prescription, lifted from Henry David Thoreau’s Walden: “We need the tonic of wildness, to wade sometimes in marshes where the bittern and the meadow-hen lurk, and hear the booming of the snipe; to smell the whispering sedge where only some wilder and more solitary fowl builds her nest, and the mink crawls with its belly close to the ground.” And why does Thoreau say we need such experiences? “We must be refreshed by the sight of inexhaustible vigor, to witness our own limits transgressed.”

director who organizes people or as a sparkplug who inspires people? Would you rather be a chief executive officer or a chief imagination officer? Questions like these will be fertile for you to meditate on in the coming weeks. The astrological omens suggest it’s time to explore and activate more of your potential as a leader or catalyst.

it’s a long, rambling sentence: 117 pages’ worth. It streams from the mouth of the narrator, who is an older man bent on telling all the big stories of his life. If there were ever to come a time when you, too, would have cosmic permission and a poetic license to deliver a one-sentence, 117page soliloquy, Libra, it would be in the coming weeks. Reveal your truths! Break through your inhibitions! Celebrate your epic tales! (P.S.: Show this horoscope to the people you’d like as your listeners.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) When Pluto was

discovered in 1930, astronomers called it the ninth planet. But 76 years later, they changed their mind. In accordance with shifting definitions, they demoted Pluto to the status of a mere “dwarf planet.” But in recent years, two renowned astronomers at Caltech have found convincing evidence for a new ninth planet. Konstantin Batygin and Michael E. Brown are tracking an object that is much larger than Earth. Its orbit is so far beyond Neptune’s that it takes 15,000 years to circle the sun. As yet it doesn’t have an official name, but Batygin and Brown informally refer to it as “Phattie.” I bring this to your attention, Scorpio, because I suspect that you, too, are on the verge of locating a monumental new addition to your universe.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) The tomato and potato are both nightshades, a family of flowering plants. Taking advantage of this commonality, botanists have used the technique of grafting to produce a pomato plant. Its roots yield potatoes, while its vines grow cherry tomatoes. Now would be a good time for you to experiment with a metaphorically similar creation, Sagittarius. Can you think of how you might generate two useful influences from a single source?

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Welcome to the

most deliciously enigmatic, sensually mysterious phase of your astrological cycle. To provide you with the proper non-rational guidance, I have stolen scraps of dusky advice from the poet Dansk Javlarna (danskjavlarna.tumblr.com). Please read between the lines: 1. Navigate the ocean that roars within the seashell. 2. Carry the key, even if the lock has been temporarily lost. 3. Search through the deepest shadows for the bright light that cast them. 4. Delve into the unfathomable in wordless awe of the inexplicable.

don’t know keeps sending me emails about great job opportunities he thinks I’d like to apply for: a technical writer for a solar energy company, for example, and a social media intern for a business that offers travel programs. His messages are not spam. The gigs are legitimate. And yet I’m not in the least interested. I already have several jobs I enjoy, like writing these horoscopes. I suspect that you, too, may receive worthy but ultimately irrelevant invitations in the coming days, Capricorn. My advice: If you remain faithful to your true needs and desires, more apropos offers will eventually flow your way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)The word “nay-

bolt of lightning taste like? I mean, if you could somehow manage to roll it around in your mouth without having to endure the white-hot shock. There’s a booze manufacturer that claims to provide this sensation. The company known as Oddka has created “Electricity Vodka,” hard liquor with an extra fizzy jolt. But if any sign of the zodiac could safely approximate eating a streak of lightning without the help of Electricity Vodka, it would be you Leos. These days you have a special talent for absorbing and enjoying and integrating fiery inspiration.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Eighteenth-century painter Joshua Reynolds said that a “disposition to abstractions, to generalizing and classification, is the great glory of the human mind.” To that lofty sentiment, his fellow artist William Blake responded, “To generalize is to be an idiot; to particularize is the alone distinction of merit.” So I may be an idiot when I make the following generalization, but I think I’m right: In the coming weeks, it will be in your best interests to rely on crafty generalizations to guide your decisions. Getting bogged down in details at the expense of the big picture — missing the forest for the trees — is a potential pitfall that you can and should avoid.

sayer” describes a person who is addicted to expressing negativity. A “yeasayer,” on the other hand, is a person who is prone to expressing optimism. According to my assessment of the astrological omens, you can and should be a creative yeasayer in the coming days — both for the sake of your own well-being and that of everyone whose life you touch. For inspiration, study Upton Sinclair’s passage about Beethoven: He was “the defier of fate, the great yea-sayer.” His music is “like the wind running over a meadow of flowers, superlative happiness infinitely multiplied.”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) If I’m feeling prosaic, I might refer to a group of flamingos as a flock. But one of the more colorful and equally correct terms is a “flamboyance” of flamingos. Similarly, a bunch of pretty insects with clubbed antennae and big fluttery wings may be called a kaleidoscope of butterflies. The collective noun for zebras can be a dazzle, for pheasants a bouquet, for larks an exaltation, and for finches a charm. In accordance with current astrological omens, I’m borrowing these nouns to describe members of your tribe. A flamboyance or kaleidoscope of Pisceans? Yes! A dazzle or bouquet or exaltation or charm of Pisceans? Yes! All of the above.
