It’s not a case of writer’s block. I know how to deal with that: I just start writing, then edit out the gibberish and move ahead. I’m not one to get hung up on a word or a phrase or a sentence and then just stop. In other weeks, a topic grabbed me and compelled me to write about it. It was almost out of my control. That hasn’t happened this week.

My daughters are coming home from college soon, and I couldn’t be happier. They’re both smart, often assertive women who are fun to be around and interesting to talk with. I’ve missed them. But I’m not feeling like writing about them. The congressional torture report is disturbing. Beyond disturbing is the defense of torture we’re hearing. Torture is wrong. It’s done by the bad guys, not by Americans. Now former Vice President Dick Cheney twists logic and explains why the ends justify the means. Sen. John McCain, of Arizona, is right: Torture is un-American. We’re better than that. Cheney should be ashamed of himself for his betrayal of American values, but he seems to have no shame. But I don’t want to write more about torture. The state of journalism? There’s much to say, what with the shift in emphasis from reporting the boring, but important, news to reporting what will generate the most online page views. Another big, serious topic that somehow leaves me uninspired. It seems there’s nothing for me to write this week. But that’s OK, because it turns out I’ve reached 300 words. I’m done.

Police arrested Sonja Hernandez, 39, for bringing her 8-year-old son, teenage daughter and three other teens with her TAKe to set fire to nine vehicles in Fort Worth, Texas. Arson investigator Brad Sims said no motive had been determined. (Fort Worth’s KXAS-TV)

Curses, Foiled Again

KEYBOARD FOLLIES

Police accused Jeremiah Scales of selling synthetic marijuana from his girlfriend’s house in Bloomington, Ind., after a nearby sign announcing “Drugs This Way” alerted them. “Our detectives did some surveillance, as well as some buys,” police Sgt. Pam Gladish said, noting that comings and goings at all hours stood out in the otherwise quiet neighborhood. (Indianapolis’s WTHR-TV)

A British judge in a custody case called a father “insensitive” and ordered him to stop sending emails to his children using capital letters and large fonts because they are “equivalent to him shouting” at them. Mrs. Justice Pauffley told the father, who is banned from seeing his children, aged 13 and 9, and communicates with them by email, that he needs to learn “to make his messages appropriate and child-friendly.” (Britain’s The Telegraph)

Which Way the Wind Blows

North Korea’s Kim Jong Un chastised the country’s meteorologists for “too many incorrect” weather forecasts and ordered them to improve their accuracy. While reporting on Kim’s tour of meteorological facilities, the state-run newspaper Rodong Sinmun included photos of a red-faced Kim lecturing cowering forecasters that accurate forecasts are needed to protect life and property from “abnormal climatic phenomenon (sic).” (CNN)

Contrarian of the Week

Bolivia reversed the clock on the front of the congressional building in La Paz so it runs counter-clockwise. Foreign Minister David Choquehuanca explained that the change was made to inspire Bolivians to treasure their heritage as people who “live in the south, not in the north,” and

“There’s no better feeling in the world than a warm pizza box on your lap.” — Kevin James

to show them they can question established norms. “Who says that the clock always has to turn one way?” Choquehuanca said, while reassuring those who “want to continue using a clock of the north, you can continue doing so.” (BBC News)

Instant Karma

A worker installing signs limiting parking to 75 minutes on a downtown street in Santa Barbara, Calif., was ticketed for parking more than 75 minutes to do the job. “I was dumbfounded,” Dan Greding explained. “I said, ‘But I’m putting these signs up,’ and he (the officer) says, “Then you should know you can’t park here more than 75 minutes.’” (Santa Barbara’s KEYT-TV)

Second-Amendment Follies

Rachel Mendoza told authorities in Liberty County, Texas, that her 12-year-old son injured himself with a bullet he found. “He held a cigarette lighter under a .22-caliber round to see what would happen,” the sheriff’s report said. “The bullet exploded, sending bullet fragments through his left middle finger and lodging in the left eye lid.” (Houston Chronicle)

IN OTHER CRAZINESS: “This morning, due to a massive storm, at least 150,000 people in San Francisco were

left without power. Of course, people in San Francisco without power are usually called Republicans.” — Conan O’Brien “There’s a holiday gift-giving trend that’s supposedly on the rise this year called self-gifting. I don’t know why everything has to have a term. Didn’t that used to be called shopping?” – Jimmy Kimmel “A woman on a Southwest Airlines flight gave birth to a baby. As soon as he was born, the baby said, ‘I had more leg room in the womb.’” — Conan O’Brien “Jeb Bush’s brother Neil said that their mother has ‘come around’ to the idea of Jeb running for president in 2016. Because if there’s anything that says you’re qualified to be president, it’s your own mom saying, ‘I guess you could do it.’” — Jimmy Fallon

Zombies Can’t Fly

The federal government is authorized to list people on its no-fly list of “known or suspected terrorists” even after they’re known to be dead, according to a leaked document from the National Counterterrorism Center. There only has to be a “reasonable suspicion” that someone else is using their identity. (Washington, D.C.’s The Hill)

Onondaga County legislators consider pay raises for sheriff, county executive, comptroller, next Legislature (syracuse.com) Oddly enough, they seem to have forgotten the dogcatcher — St. John’s coach Steve Lavin said Red Storm defense vs. Syracuse was inspired by ninjas, Robin Hood (syracuse.com) Next up for the Orange: training in martial arts and archery — Upstate New Yorkers: Why do we still live in one of the snowiest areas of the country?

Sanity fair

“The routine use of torture lowers the moral caliber of the organization that uses it and corrupts those that rely on it TAKe …” — From the CIA’s “Human Resource Exploitation Manual,” a 1983 instruction booklet on torture.

QUICK

By Ed Griffin-Nolan

don’t pretend U.S. DOESN’T TORTURE

It’s great to have Dick Cheney back. I so enjoyed his brutal honesty and curled lip as he referred as a “bunch of crap” to the report on CIA torture issued by the Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee. That is much more pleasing than the voices of supposedly “reasonable” men and women who seek nuance and end up obscuring hideous truths. Last week, we were treated to “reasonable experts” explaining to us how the grand jury on Staten Island works (or doesn’t work). The week before, it was the mild mannered suits explaining to us why the Ferguson grand jury decided not to send the case of the man who shot Michael Brown to trial. This week, it was CIA Director John Brennan’s turn to take on the role of the learned uncle, encouraging us to contain our passions and take a more nuanced view of what, to anyone with eyes, ears and a heart, appear to be crimes. On Dec. 11, two days after the report was published, Brennan started his press briefing (unprecedented for a CIA director) sounding like a reasonable fellow. First, he noted that “many aspects of (the committee Democrats’) conclusions are sound and consistent with our own prior findings.” Second, he said that it was impossible to know whether the information elicited from the torture victims could have been obtained by other means. In other words, we don’t know if torture “works.” Then Brennan went off the rails, as he sought to evoke sympathy for the torturers. After 9/11, says Brennan, “We were not prepared, and the individuals that were given the responsibility to carry out this work … were trying to do their best and at times came up short.” In this case, “trying to do their best” involved, among other things, shoving pureed hummus up into a man’s rectum, letting another man freeze to death by leaving him tied up and nearly naked on a cold concrete floor and flooding the windpipes of other men with water until they were near death, the practice known as waterboarding. Brennan alleges that the agency had been caught off guard, as if its members didn’t know much about this interrogation

Excerpt from page 3 of KUBARK Counterintelligence Interrogation, July 1963 (released Feb. 25, 2014)

business and were just trying out a few things. As in, let’s throw some Arabs against the wall and see what sticks. Either he is ignorant of his own agency’s history, or he is lying. The CIA plainly knows quite a bit about torture. In fact, they wrote the book on it. The original CIA torture manual, referred to by its code name Kubark, was written in 1963 and disseminated widely among Latin American militaries. In 1983, the CIA, relying heavily on the interrogation techniques described in Kubark, produced the Human Resource Exploitation Manual, used to help train the notorious Nicaraguan contras to gain intelligence. Many of these are the same techniques that we see the CIA practicing in its dark centers, which were replicas of what the Army did to Iraqi prisoners at the Abu Ghraib prison. All this and more is in the report, and is well summarized by Jeff Stein at tinyurl.com/m4b7fya. Note: Neither Cheney nor Brennan have taken exception to this part of the report. According to Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), the report “is the next step toward enacting major reforms to ensure something like this never happens again.” To which any student of our recent history can only ask, “Is she kidding?” Torture has been part and parcel of the American way ever since the creation of the Central Intelligence Agency. Vietnam, the Cold War, El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua — torture went on in our name, either by our own personnel or by allies we were financing and training. And each time it came to light, we shut down the inquiry, passed meaningless laws to prohibit it and then let secret agencies with little or no oversight do what they felt they needed to do — or what we wanted them to do. SNT

The Wrong Question

BY THE NUMBERS

119 Number of secret prisoners held and interrogated by the CIA 2003-2009

Number held for no reason, most of them cases of mistaken identity

“Does torture work?” is without a doubt the most morally repugnant question being asked in the wake of the report on CIA torture. Asking the question implies that answering it in the affirmative means we should continue the practice. But does torture work? Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) says no. CIA Director John Brennan says that the answer is “unknowable.” How about we conduct a double blind study, using CIA volunteers? Split them into two groups, give them each the same classified secrets. Torture one group, while using conventional interrogation techniques on the control group, and measure the difference in the information obtained. The idea is repugnant, you say. No, we don’t do experiments on human subjects, do we?

Kramer Biblical Kwandry: If animals have souls, is there good barbecue in heaven?

quick take

By Jeff Kramer

A Heavenly combo: Humans (the good ones), fur and feathers.

STUCK IN A PURGATORY OF QUESTIONS ABOUT HEAVEN AND HELL

ope Francis uncaged a global debate when he hinted that animals go to heaven. Whether he actually meant that sparked a secondary debate, but how curious that no media have consulted those at the center of this theological rumpus: animals themselves.

To correct that, I dropped by the Rosamond Gifford Zoo last week to see what God’s creatures were saying about the pope’s comments. Not surprisingly, a Darwinian diversity of views was on display, ranging from “Tell me something I don’t already know” (Siri the elephant) to “No, seriously, you’re jerking my exoskeleton. I get to go to heaven? Me? I’m freakin’ coral.” A number of animals refused to join the debate. “Let’s see if I have this correct,” rumbled Joshua the lion, whose sister, Mindine, died of a uterine infection in October. “Humans are wiping out our habitat. Some of you kill us for sport. You moved me from a zoo in sub-tropical Baton Rouge to Syracuse bleepin’ New York. I live in an enclosure so small I wouldn’t wish it on the naked mole rats. And you are debating whether I get to go to heaven? Bite me.” Others expressed confusion about what heaven is. “Would I have to do anything there?” wondered the Hoffman’s two-toed sloth. “No, dumbass,” snapped Ty, a Therold’s white-

lipped deer. “That’s the whole point of heaven. You can do whatever you want. Heaven is perfect.” “I guess that means you and your ridiculous white lips won’t be there,” riposted the sloth. The animals generally agreed that Pope Francis is on their side and a clear improvement over Pope Benedict, who asserted that when animals die it just means “the end of existence on Earth.” The mere mention of Benedict caused one of the Patas monkeys to go bananas, but then he calmed down. “For all we know, Benedict was right,” the monkey postulated. “I mean, what about extinct animals: the dinosaurs? Are they in heaven? You can even take it to greater extremes. The first lungfish waddled onto land 375 million years ago. If those pioneering early vertebrates aren’t in heaven, what chance do spineless jellyfish like NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell have?” “Spineless jellyfish like NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell!” echoed Simon the macaw. The jellyfish had no comment — nor did Goodell

— but the Madagascar hissing cockroach weighed in angrily. “You vertebrates and your sssssuperiority complex,” She said. “You’ve got a big bone between your neck and your ass. Get over it. Phylumist pigs!” She had a point. I had come to the zoo thinking about heaven in terms of more advanced mammals: lions, tigers, bears and such. But what about snakes, squid and newts? What about scorpions? Certainly scorpions have major Biblical cred. Still another doctrinal question hung in the air like the Egyptian fruit bats. Do animals have morals that qualify or disqualify them from eternal afterlife in the company of God? Tatiana the tiger pounced on that one. “Let me ask you a question, Mister Reporter Person,” she said. “If you remove this see-through barrier, I will kill you. And then I will kill the reindeer — right before Christmas. And then I might saunter down to Coleman’s or Nibsy’s for a Bloody Mary — or Kevin. And you know what?” “What,” I trembled. “I wouldn’t give it a second thought. Now, you tell me: Do I belong in heaven?” “First you might need anger management training,” I offered. “Then it wouldn’t be heaven, would it? At least not for me.” Tatiana gave a great yawn as I pondered the ecclesiastical conundrum. “Don’t you see,” she continued. “Heaven is right here. You’re in it.” “Excuse me?” “The zoo! We live here in total peace and harmony. No hunger. No danger. No bloodshed. It’s just like John Lennon imagined. And you know what?” “What?” I asked. She eyed me with bored disdain. “I bet you taste like chicken.” SNT Email Jeff Kramer at jeffmkramer@ gmail.com. Follow him on Twitter at @ JKintheCuse.

ince 1989, when it was established by owner Sammer Essi’s uncle Munjed, Munjed’s has been offering Middle Eastern cuisine while serving Greek classics customers have come to expect.

Along with Essi’s wife, Debbie, this family has been a constant on Wescott Street for years. One year ago, it moved across the street to a larger location, where I visited on a weekday night. If you want a light meal, or a snack before heading to an event, or just because, go for the mazza platter, a beautiful arrangement of four of the following offerings: hummus, baba ganoush, tzatziki, feta with olives, falafel, dolmades, garden salad, tabouli salad or Greek salad. This was plenty for two and basically covers all of the sides you might get if you ordered a dinner platter. The tzatziki is fresh. The pita is, too, and the feta had a great bite to it. They also fried up some pita strips on the side that provide extra crunch. Just a fun way to sit and sip and enjoy all of those sharp, crisp and smooth flavors that epitomize this part of the world. The dolmades, a personal favorite, were slimmer with less vinegar and fresher than you might have come to expect after having them at other places. What a fun thing to do: to roll into a neighborhood where your fellow Syracusans are pouring their heart and soul into serving their family’s recipes night after night. In Syracuse, we are blessed with

some wonderful neighborhoods with local folks trying to make a living; should we not be supporting them? Sammer’s mom and aunts do 90 percent of the prep-cooking before the dinner service. His cousin was tending the bar, and his daughter manned the cash register. Westcott Street is this lovely little enclave, with members of the Westcott Nation arriving for trivia night as we were walking out. There is also salsa dancing on Friday nights and Just Joe the piano man playing at other times. But I digress. I chose the Greek Fest combo, with a wedge of spanakopita, gyro meat and tzatziki and a Greek salad. The gyro meat, a lamb/beef combination as is traditional, was crispy on the outside yet melted in my mouth. I mean really melted. Compared to my pilgrimage to the State Fair for a gyro, this meat blew the doors off anything I had had before. We also tried the chicken shawarma, which was highly seasoned and served with salad and hummus. For dessert, we tried what they are calling their “soon to be famous” baklava cheesecake: a vanilla-based cheesecake, round, covered with walnuts, sugar, cinnamon and rose syrup. If you like cinnamon paired with creamy cheesecake, this is the dessert for you. SNT

LOCAL BAND CAPTURES

NATIONAL SPOTLIGHT Perfect Pussy has a national recording contract and is about to embark on a tour of New Zealand and Australia. Writer Patrick Hosken caught up with the band to talk about its rapid rise. Perfect Pussy vocalist Meredith Graves. CoolDad Music photo

t’s the middle of September, and Shaun Sutkus — the keyboard and synthesizer player in Syracuse noise-punk band Perfect Pussy — is on the other side of the country. He’s been working as another band’s tour manager for the past three weeks, and the next four are stuffed with concert dates along the West Coast. Perfect Pussy isn’t exactly his priority right now. At the end of August, the band took a month and a half off between the conclusion of its first European tour and the start of another. Sutkus and the band’s four other members — guitarist Ray McAndrew, bassist Greg Ambler, drummer Garrett Koloski and vocalist Meredith Graves — flew back for a concert in Brighton, England, at the end of October. Until then, the five are split up in different locations. Sutkus said tour managing bands like Skaters, a New York City indie-pop outfit, helps him appease his organizational impulses. His musical appetites, however, remain ravenous. “I haven’t made a fucking record all year,” Sutkus said. “In 2013, I made two records, and in 2012, I made 14, and the year before that, I made 14. So I really, really want to get back in the studio.” When he’s not touring, Sutkus records, engineers, mixes and masters albums by other bands from Syracuse, New York City and elsewhere. He’s itchy to get to work on Perfect Pussy’s second album, the follow-up to this year’s acclaimed Say Yes to Love, which he produced. Though it clocks in at a lean 23 minutes, the album’s furious clamor has made it critically memorable, thanks in part to Sutkus’ technical recording prowess. “Everyone brings their sound to the table. But as far as the overall sound, the sheen on it, yeah, of course that has to do with me,” Sutkus said, “It’s definitely a culmination of several styles jammed in.” The band first garnered praise from The New York Times and NPR last year with a four-song release that made several music publications’ best-of-2013 lists. Say Yes to Love’s continuation of that sound — a blend of relentless attitude and caustic noise — has given Perfect Pussy, and by extension, the city of Syracuse, national attention. Though releasing a timely second record would make commercial sense, no one in the band knows when that will happen. Sutkus thinks February or March, and for him, that might be too long to wait. For bassist Ambler, however, the gap might actually be a good thing. “I think we’re more concerned now with trying to figure out what we’re doing with other projects,” he said. “(Before Perfect Pussy), we were so used to having our hands in so many cookie jars at once.”

Ambler, who bartends at Mexican restaurant Alto Cinco, on Westcott Street, said the other musical groups he played in dissolved in light of Perfect Pussy’s international success. He said it’s hard to sustain other musical endeavors at home when you’re in a different city every night. That’s why a respite from touring and recording could be beneficial: All five members will finally have their own space. “We’re just going to take time to figure out what our strengths are independently,” Ambler said. Perfect Pussy’s post-tour fragmentation isn’t all that surprising given its highly successful first two years. The band came together in a primitive form during the 2012 production of the locally shot John Cusack film Adult World. By early 2014, with its current lineup in place, it landed on stage at the South by Southwest and Pitchfork music festivals. A month off can feel like an eternity, Ambler said, given the band’s year of playing in more than 60 cities. But the perks of being a road musician are hard to dismiss, even for Ambler, who calls himself “borderline agoraphobic.” “To travel the world and have a reason to do it is awesome because I never had any intention of ever leaving New York state, honestly,” he said. “I have a lot of anxieties about even being outside of my house, which is why I started playing in bands and started working in DIY venues.” The careers of all five Perfect Pussy members are rooted in the Syracuse DIY and underground scene. Ambler worked at Castle Rockmore, a former venue on West Borden Avenue, from 2007 to 2009 before moving onto Badlands’ old spot on East Fayette Street. There, he connected with Graves a few years before the band officially formed. Guitarist McAndrew and drummer Koloski worked together in the punk band Sswampzz. NEXT PAGE

Perfect Pussy Despite its members’ connections to the city’s DIY scene, Perfect Pussy has to date played only three shows in Syracuse: two in friends’ basements and one at Gorham Brothers Music, an instrument and gear shop on Seeley Road. Local promoters have offered the band gigs at the Westcott Theater and the Lost Horizon, but they’ve refused. That hesitance stems not so much from animosity, Ambler said, but from a discomfort in dealing with people they’ve never worked with before. When the band’s tour brings them back to upstate New York, Perfect Pussy instead opts for shows at Rochester’s Bug Jar or The Haunt, in Ithaca, where they played earlier this month. The band’s relationship with those venue promoters runs deeper, Ambler said. “We’re used to doing shows with like 20 or 30 kids, so to be able to give back to one of our friends and have 400 kids show up at a show and have them actually put money into their promotion company is cool, as opposed to giving it to people here that we never really associated with or worked with in the first place,” he said.

“I haven’t made a fucking record all year. In 2013, I made two records, and in 2012, I made 14, and the year before that, I made 14. So I really, really want to get back in the studio.” — Shaun Sutkus Before the next tour kicks off, Ambler is bartending. McAndrew works just a block away at Beer Belly Deli & Pub, and Koloski stays local, as well. Singer Graves, who has become the de facto focal point of the band’s public image, is spending some time in New York City. What she’s not doing is giving interviews. McAndrew attributes this to instances in which Graves felt journalists took her words out of context or twisted them to fit a preconceived narrative. “I know she’s had some problems with being misinterpreted or misquoted on things, and she’s had some blatantly sexist questions in interviews,” McAndrew said. “She just doesn’t want to deal with any of that anymore.” But Graves hasn’t remained quiet; She’s merely talking on her own terms. At September’s Basilica

Soundscape Festival in Hudson, she performed a spoken-word piece on the nature of authenticity in the music world, using the polar-opposite success stories of Andrew W.K. and Lana Del Rey as examples. “After a month of thinking about the bizarre truth inherent here — that real women with fake names are somehow considered exponentially less authentic than completely fake men harboring a real, hidden sadness — I’ve come to one conclusion: that the cult of personality surrounding artists exists because of an unfeeling world that loves nothing more than breaking sensitive, talented people,” she said in the piece, which was also published at TheTalkhouse.com. Three weeks later, she penned an essay for music website Pitchfork.com on a feud between two male indie musicians, calling out one for what she saw as emotional abuse of the other. Graves also took on the “faux feminism” of a Chanel runway show in Paris with a piece at The Hairpin, a women’s website, which The New York Times quoted from. With such national scrutiny directed toward a burgeoning local band, one question looms large: How long can Syracuse sustain Perfect Pussy? Its record label, Captured Tracks, is headquartered in Brooklyn. After a six-show European return trip, Australia and New Zealand tour dates in early 2015 have been finalized. Sutkus said his predilection for working with experimental artists has already led him away from Syracuse and down to New York City. The musical landscape is more fertile there, he said, and he can find work easily. Soon, he might move down there permanently. “I can’t make a living doing what I want to do (in Syracuse), so I have to travel. I have to tour,” Sutkus said. “I can’t be a part of the community, really, because I’m never around.” Everything might change once the second album comes together. Then again, it might not. One of the only certainties in Sutkus’ life now is the impending reality of leaving the city and supporting himself in a different location. Given his time tour managing on the West Coast, it likely wouldn’t be all that big of a change. “I am going to miss Syracuse,” he said. “It’s been the most constant thing in my life for a while.” SNT See and hear Perfect Pussy at tinyurl.com/ jvsov2v.

Band, MTV Join for Music Project

Punk music may have begun as an underground movement, but Syracuse’s Perfect Pussy have plans to spread it across the globe with a little help from a mainstream media conglomerate. Back in July, the band’s five members pummeled their guitars, drums and synthesizers on the roof of the Merchants Commons building downtown, churning through a 30-minute set in front of only a film crew (and a few building employees). As the noise filled the 10,000 square-foot roof space and the street below, camera operators captured the raw, assaulting performance that’s become one of Perfect Pussy’s most striking features. A live stream provided by Syracuse.com allowed viewers to experience it remotely. It wasn’t exactly a music video, drummer Garrett Koloski said, but it wasn’t quite a documentary, either. “They’re, like, shooting a pilot or something,” he said inside the band’s rented van after a summer gig in Rochester. “They” is MTV — or, more specifically, an independent production company contracted by MTV to gather footage of musicians playing in unconventional locations around the world. MTV manages the brands MTV Desi, which highlights musicians from South Asia, and MTV-K, with musicians from Korea, in addition to MTV Iggy, which profiles both international and American artists. But by the time the edited footage hits the airwaves, Perfect Pussy may be even more fragmented — at least, that’s what recent news would suggest. Vocalist Meredith Graves recently told DIY magazine of her plans to spend 2015 writing and recording a solo record. Graves said she’s working toward establishing her own record label and publisher, with two releases expected in the spring. In the meantime, the MTV special is still in production. The band’s bass player, Greg Ambler, said it focuses on artists of all races, genders and sexual orientations. “It’s about reaching people in places where that stuff isn’t allowed,” Ambler said. The details of the project are evolving, but Ambler and Koloski both heard the term “MTV World” brought up during the planning. Ambler said it could be a new series or a completely separate network, though one not set to broadcast in the U.S. or Canada. The band’s publicity rep confirmed in an email that the footage is part of an MTV World special scheduled to air internationally. The project is still untitled. Global exposure can help a band reach new audiences, but this particular video shoot also brings Perfect Pussy something more tangible: money. Captured Tracks, their Brooklyn-based record label, takes half of whatever the band earns for licensing its songs, Ambler said. Perfect Pussy gets the other half, and half of what Captured Tracks takes — in other words, a quarter of the total earned — the band gets back in royalties. “It’s a weird thing,” Ambler said. “We didn’t technically get paid to play (our songs). We’re getting paid because they’re going to broadcast them eventually.” Though the band may not be recording its second album any time soon, it has tour dates scheduled for Australia and New Zealand beginning in early January. — Patrick Hosken

STILL MAKING RADIO WAVES

Music writer Jessica Novak checks in with Dave Frisina as his Soundcheck program celebrates 35 years Michael Davis photographs

hen Dave Frisina landed his first professional radio gig in 1978 after graduating from SUNY Cortland in 1977, he had two main goals: 1. Get more airtime. 2. Have fun.

He had an overnight shift at the brand-new WAQX-FM (95X) in Manlius, where he worked the turntables from 2 until 6 a.m., later expanding to midnight to 6 a.m. This worked remarkably well with Frisina’s social life. “I’d go out to clubs to meet people and do stuff like any 23-year-old,” he explains. “I’d see these great bands and when they found out I worked for the radio station that had just signed on, it was a good way to meet people. Then I started thinking about how I could get more people into what they were doing, turn more people onto it.” On Dec. 2, 1979, the weekly one-hour all-local radio show Soundcheck was born. Now celebrating its 35th year, many things have changed — the series now airs on WXTL-FM 105.9 (The Rebel) — but some haven’t, especially the fact that Frisina is having more fun than ever. “Early on, I was just encouraging people to write their own stuff,” he says. “Now, because of an explosion of good studios and home studios, it’s more accessible. And there are more platforms for people to get their music out. But people tell me all the time that there’s something about hearing it on the radio: in your car, at your camp, at home.” Frisina picked out his favorite bands quickly, noting early Soundcheck stars such as Bob Halligan, The Flashcubes, 805 and New York Flyers. Although the show started as one of 95X’s “11th Hour” specialty shows, it migrated to 9 p.m. on Sunday nights, where it has remained even as Frisina has changed stations from 95X to Galaxy’s WTKW-FM 99.1 (TK99) to Cumulus’ The Rebel. Aside from Soundcheck, the deejay also hosts

12.17.14 - 12.23.14 | syracusenewtimes.com

a Rebel weekday shift from 2 to 7 p.m. and a Sunday Soulshine show from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Radio formats have changed over the years, yet Soundcheck has always been about local music. “Sometimes I play current music from the same artists I was playing 35 years ago,” he says. “Sometimes it’s new from Todd Hobin. Sometimes it’s not. It mixes old and new.” While conventional radio doesn’t always allow the musical mix of past and present, or the transitions of an artist throughout his or her career, Frisina has been there every step of the way for many of Syracuse’s most well-known players. “I was a fan of theirs when I started radio and I’m still a fan,” he says. “To be friends with these people now is just a bonus. And now having Brett Hobin (Todd Hobin’s son) in my son’s band, and hanging with Todd at shows, who was someone I used to see when I was in college, it’s wild. And it’s great seeing people like Mark Doyle and Joe Whiting still out there. When I first got to town (in 1978) they blew me away.” Frisina’s Soulshine show offers “my four hours of freeform radio where I get to do what I used to do: pick music that is compatible. Rdio (a music ap) has 30 million songs. I can’t compete with that. But when you have so many songs, people need a gatekeeper, someone to narrow that 30 million down to their taste, but also give them some diversity. It doesn’t mean that they want everything that sounds like the Avett Brothers. Familiar, but also some diversity. Those algorithms can’t do that.” Soulshine provides Frisina that opportunity with acts spanning legendary to breaking, but Soundcheck allows him to work as

the local music guide. “Many people here can’t name 10 local bands,” he says. “At Respect: Central New York Celebrates Women (held Nov. 13 at Eastwood’s Palace Theatre), 18 local women performed, and that’s not even half of the women in this town who sing. We have to help narrow that down for people, give them a focus.” Soundcheck’s 35th celebration was tied in with a live Rebel broadcast of the third and final edition of the Salt City Waltz (until 2017), held Nov. 29 at the Palace. The annual event featured Syracuse musicians recreating one of rock history’s most famous events: The Band’s November 1976 farewell concert, as captured by director Martin Scorsese in the 1978 documentary The Last Waltz. Frisina and Salt City Waltz creator and producer Stacey Waterman both realized how close the Soundcheck anniversary was to the Salt City Waltz date. “I was thinking of something different,” Frisina recalls, “but why would I recreate something that big three days later? Why not combine?” The Rebel also streamed the show online, giving people around the world the opportunity to hear Syracuse musicians in action: Los Blancos (Colin Aberdeen, Steve Winston, Mark Nanni and Mark Tiffault) as The Band, plus Mark Hoffman, Rex Lyons, Carolyn Kelly, Pete McMahon, Joe Altier, Miss E, Kim Monroe, Chris Eves and many more. The result perfectly encapsulated everything Frisina has accomplished for 35 years. “I’ve seen (the Palace) crowded before,” he says. “But the overall enthusiasm . . . it was amazing. It was local bands at a locally owned theater celebrating a radio station that plays local music on Buy Local Saturday.” Frisina confirms that his musical mission with Soundcheck will continue. “We have to give people something they can’t get anywhere else,” he says. “I can turn them on to new bands. I can expose people to new stuff. Soundcheck has been the one show that has been able to go through all the different time periods and in some ways reflect those time periods, but also set a good example of what’s out there. I want people to hear that we are not just a singer-songwriter town, a rock town, a blues town. It’s all here. You can see anything.” SNT

NEW COMEDY REVELS IN HOLIDAY SNEER

S REVIEW

ubtitled “A silly little Christmas story,” Visiting Bammy Lewis is an unpretentious, two-hour portrayal of massive family dysfunction, now playing at Shoppingtown’s Central New York Playhouse.

And don’t call her “Grandma.” That would be too sweet. Prefer instead the childhood mispronunciation “Bammy.” Contained within it is the springboard for many puns, like, “Bam! Here’s a rhetorical smash to your nose.” Steel-smiled domestic tyrant Bammy Lewis (Kathy Burke Egloff) strides the scene in a too-tight scarlet dress with prominent décolletage. In her bosom the milk of human kindness long ago curdled. When late-arriving son Dean gasps that he has just driven in from Niagara Falls and he barely beat the storm, Bammy purrs, “It’s a pity you didn’t drive slower.” A December evening with the Lewis family, an apparently lower-middle-class Central New York clan of no particular ethnicity, offers us the kind of Christmas Scrooge was warning us against until he ran into Marley’s Ghost. This world premiere comes from the pen of community theater actress Joleene Moody (The Man Who Came to Dinner, On Golden Pond). A few years ago the playwright was known as Joleene DesRosiers, a local television reporter and anchor. In an interview, Moody admits to having created the script in 1997 but let it sit until it was taken up by director Korrie

12.17.14 - 12.23.14 | syracusenewtimes.com

Taylor, well-established with the Baldwinsville Theatre Guild. Visiting Bammy Lewis is under the Central New York Playhouse aegis, but Taylor’s husband Josh, another Baldwinsville Guild regular, constructed the set. Except for the title character played by Egloff, the hardest-working person in community theater, and Playhouse regulars Heather J. Roach and Phil Brady, most faces in the capable cast are unfamiliar. Although Taylor’s gag-a-minute pacing implies farce, something resembling a plot begins to develop almost without our noticing it. Bammy, always seen with a cocktail glass in her hand, is welcoming guests to a holiday soiree, along with her milquetoast second husband John (Mark Baker). Bald and smiling, John at first looks like Bammy’s piñata, borrowed from a different holiday. As events unfold, John’s reactions are seen to be kinder and gentler than Bammy’s, but he’s slow to get traction for what is called elsewhere the Christmas spirit. First through the door are Bammy’s impoverished sister Jill (Hinda Crewell) and her near-sighted husband Leon (Bruce Grieshaber). After we see Leon bumping into the furniture, he is asked, rudely, if he

is blind, which he appears to be. Immediately Leon takes a tumble behind the couch and is then immobile for about an hour. His hand is nonetheless seen over the top of the couch, yet he continues to participate in dialogue, a shtick playwright Moody does not tire of exploiting. Jill and Leon have sold everything to invest in lottery tickets. The motif of fate and chance lies dormant for a while, but toward the end of the second act we learn how many people, not just Jill and Leon, are holding lottery tickets. Still, Jill has contributed a pecan pie to the evening’s festivities, however lacking pecans she has made her pie with beer nuts. The arrival of the next generation increases the shouting and tension. Bammy’s aggressive daughter Danielle (Becky Hall) brings along her vacuous current boyfriend PJ (John Krenrich). The soul of decorum, PJ has a telling way of raising his jersey with a loose thumb, thus exposing his hairy belly. PJ crams his mouth with cookies and appears to be choking when the ensemble thinks up a novel solution: PJ must thrust his arms straight up to dislodge the wad stuck in his throat. As happens in comedy, PJ’s arms are now stuck in this position, a posture Krenrich gamely supports for the next hour or so. Son Dean (Robert D. Miller) from Niagara Falls arrives with his wife Amy (Anett Marcarian), but the parents leave the children out in the cold; the car engine is still running. They are followed by more characters (played by Heather J. Roach, Bill Lee and Phil Brady), unrelated to the family, just to make sure there is not a slack moment. Again in an interview, playwright Moody has said that every character in Bammy is based on someone she knows. She has 11 cases of comic retribution. The laugh is on them. SNT

NEIL YOUNG ON NEIL YOUNG Written at age 66, Waging Heavy Peace (Blue Rider Press, 502 pages) is exactly what you’d expect a Neil Young autobiography to be like. Wildly candid and disorienting in its jumps, much like a ping-pong ball across a table of time, the book doesn’t follow rhyme, reason or even a rhythm. Young talks about what he wants to talk about, and when he wants to talk about it, as chapters jarringly move from a story about a dying friend to a passage about his wife’s dog. While this sounds disruptive, it’s also addictive. It’s as if you’re reading Young’s diary, or even sitting beside him listening to his many stories of music, and life itself. Although Waging Heavy Peace hit bookshelves in 2012, it would make a great gift for rock aficionados. The book talks about Young’s upbringing in Canada, his escape to the United States and his more than 50 years in the business. Another major topic is Pono, formerly PureTone, a music download service headed by Young that is designed to “create the new gold standard” in music-listening devices. “PureTone players play MP3s from iTunes, too, but they will sound better than the other players because of the digital-to-analog conversion at the heart of PureTone technology,” Young explains. “If I succeed, I will have helped a lot of artists and music lovers achieve nirvana. My daughter Amber was the one who heard Pono in my car after listening to MP3s her whole life, and she looked at me and asked, ‘What happened? How did that happen?’ She knows why I am doing what I am doing. She is them, all of those young people who haven’t felt the real sound of recorded music.” As described by Young, MP3s are akin to listening to music 1,000 feet under water, while listening to Pono at resolutions of 192kHz is like listening in the clouds. Pono is not yet widely available, although products can be preordered for January and March 2015. Elsewhere in the book are in-depth and unfiltered stories involving Crosby, Stills and Nash to Buffalo Springfield to Jimmy Fallon. Young lets the world hear his mind on music and his other loves such as his 1971 Cadillac Eldorado convertible),

as well as stories about his children, Ben, Zeke and Amber, and his wife Pegi. On one trip to Los Angeles, his Eldorado broke down. After arguing at length about his AAA membership status and watching “one of the greatest collections of expired AAA cards ever known” blow away, he was picked up by a tow truck driver. “Looking at my card further, he asked, ‘Are you Neil Young?’ I said, ‘Yes, I am.’ He asked, ‘Who is Cinnamon Girl?’ I told him he would meet her in LA: She was my wife and had the most beautiful eyes in the world. We got into LA at night, pulled up to Sunset Sound studios where Pegi was recording, and just as I had promised, there was Cinnamon Girl, waiting by the curb.” Young is frank (perhaps to the disappointment of some) when he says, “I don’t have a musical direction at the moment.” Yet at the end of Waging Heavy Peace, Young comes full circle as he states, “A very successful musician with a lot of stuff and things of value . . . now I am trying to find myself again and reconnect with the values I had in the beginning, find the love in the music with others again, return to the camaraderie that we all enjoyed back in the day, respect others, have empathy for them, be considerate, love myself again, and through that, be more true to myself and others, and above all, be deserving of Pegi.” SNT

SEASONAL GIFTS ARE COMING TO YOUR TV It’s a weird time of year for television. The fall season is over for most new series, many of which won’t return until January (or at all). For students, the semester is over. For corporate folks, business is slow. It’s the holiday season! It’s time to enjoy some good cheer, stare through the steam on a cup of tea at the lights on the Christmas tree, the solstice tree, the menorah or the kinara, and enjoy the company of friends and family. And there’s plenty of good TV out there if you know where to look.

Wednesday, Dec. 17 In a nostalgic and raucous night of backto-back cheer, ABC Family is airing Home Alone (1990) followed by The Santa Clause (1994), beginning at 6:30 p.m. For those who’d rather see friction than farce, the 29th season of Survivor concludes Thursday at 8 p.m.

Thursday, Dec. 18 Each year, iHeartRadio celebrates the year’s best in pop music with the Jingle Ball. The annual holiday concert, formerly hosted by NYC’s Z100, was filmed Friday at Madison Square Garden in New York City. This year features a host of powerful young ladies (Taylor Swift, Iggy Azalea, Meghan Trainor and Ariana Grande) and a few fellas (Maroon 5, Nick Jonas, Pharrell Williams, OneRepublic). It will air on The CW at 8 p.m. Thursday. Not too in tune with the current pop sugar? Still get a little nostalgic when it snows, during Matthew’s proposal to Mary? Never fear, PBS will air a Downton Abbey recap at 9 p.m., looking back at the first four seasons. It’s just in time, too; the fifth season will come stateside on Jan. 4.

Friday, Dec. 19 Who doesn’t love Buddy the Elf? Well, I’m not a huge Will Farrell fan, but a lot of people are! So, for their sake, I’m happy to say that Buddy will grace your screen once again this year as Elf airs on ABC Family at 8 p.m. Friday. If you’re in the mood for more serious holiday fare, turn over to CBS for A Home for the Holidays at 9 p.m. The annual telecast raises awareness and money for foster and adoption programs, this year with performances by Jennifer Hudson, Katharine McPhee, Train, Earth, Wind and Fire, and others. This year among the uplifting adoption stories will be the story of Rich Valenza and Jared Gee, a gay couple with two adopted children. Five days away and still not feeling the cheer? Check out the series premiere of Caught on Camera with Nick Cannon (8 p.m.), NBC’s answer to Tosh.0.

Sunday, Dec. 21 Especially if you caught The Santa Clause on Wednesday, catch The Santa Clause 2 (2002) on AMC at 8 p.m. Sunday. If not, why not check out what TV was like when it first started? The Disneyland TV series is a multi-format anthology series that has aired consistently, under different names, since 1954. It remains one of the longest-running television series in history. On Sunday night, TCM will air the 1954 special Walt Disney Presents (8:30 p.m.), featuring Walt Disney himself, unveiling the upcoming series.

Monday, Dec. 22 By now, you’ll obviously be hooked on The Great Christmas Light Fight. The season finale airs on ABC 8 p.m. Let there be light! No? Well, try NBC, where A Saturday Night Live Christmas (originally aired Dec. 3) will revisit the series’ best holiday sketches throughout its 40 seasons. You might also catch a rerun of The iHeartRadio Jingle Ball on The CW at 8 p.m., or have another hot cocoa with The Santa Clause on ABC Family at 8:30 p.m. On AMC, the original 1947 Miracle on 34th Street with Natalie Wood and Edmund Gwenn starts at 6:30, immediately followed by the 1994 remake at 8:45 p.m. Not interested in lights, miracles or pop stars? The Syracuse vs. Colgate basketball game will surely be on at every bar in Syracuse. Tipoff is at 7 p.m.

Tuesday, Dec. 23

Saturday, Dec. 20 Saturday night, gather your family — Mom, Dad, Gramps, Cousin Mary and the kids, all of whom have come to town a week early (surprise!) — and settle in for an evening of fun for the whole gang. Dr. Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas (2000, the Jim Carrey version) on ABC Family at 8 p.m. might make Uncle Lou’s cold, cold heart grow three sizes. Alternatively, in case you missed it, NBC is re-airing last year’s musical disaster The Sound of Music Live! at 8 p.m.

Two nights before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature will be stirring — except for me, with excitement, because Nickelodeon has a classic Full House Christmas double feature. First at 8 p.m., A Very Tanner Christmas (1992), when Steve and DJ break up. Next, Our Very First Christmas Show (1988) when the Tanners get snowed in at the airport. Over at ABC, Robin Roberts will host The Year: 2014 (9 p.m.), a retrospective on the past year in news and pop culture.

WEDNESDAY, DEC. 24 Sorry Scrooges, TV doesn’t have much to offer you on Christmas Eve. The airwaves are chock full of classics: It’s A Wonderful Life (1946) on both NBC and USA at 8 p.m.; A Christmas Story (1983) on both TBS and TNT at 8 p.m.; and the I Love Lucy (1956) Christmas special on CBS at 8 p.m. For a less savory evening, put the kids to bed early, grab some liquor and watch Billy Bob Thornton at (arguably) his slimiest in Bad Santa (2003) on MTV at 8 p.m. By 11 p.m., it’ll be time to turn off the TV and put out the cookies and milk. Don’t forget to leave the bedroom door cracked so you can listen for sleigh bells on the roof. Happy watching and happy holidays to all!

TAURUS. (April 20-May 20) In the 19th century,

the Grimm brothers gathered more than 200 old fairy tales from a variety of sources and published them in an unprecedented collection. Many of their stories are still popular, including “Cinderella,” “Snow White,” “Hansel and Gretel” and “Rapunzel.” Around the same time they did their work, a storyteller named Franz Xaver von Schönwerth assembled his own compendium of fantastic myths, fables and folklore. Unlike the Grimm brothers’ book, his work faded into obscurity. But it was rediscovered in 2011, and 500 lost fairy tales are now finding their way into newly published books. I foresee a comparable phenomenon happening for you in 2015, Taurus. Forgotten stories will return. Raw material from the depths will resurface. Interesting news from the past will come flowing into the present.

LEO. (July 23-Aug. 22) “There are two kinds of light,” said author James Thurber, “the glow that illuminates, and the glare that obscures.” Lately you have been an abundant source of that first kind of light, Leo. The fire in your heart and the gleam in your eyes have not only brightened the mood wherever you’ve gone. They have also clarified confusing situations, warmed chilly attitudes and healed dispirited allies. Thank you! In the coming weeks, I’d love to see you continue on your hot streak. To help ensure that you do, keep your ego under control. Don’t let it pretend that it owns the light you’re emitting. With a little introspection, you will continue to generate illumination, not glare.

This is a suspiciously low figure unless we factor in the data uncovered by my own research you be able to find the other half of the truth. I realize it may be frustrating to use this approach. -- which is that a disproportionately small amount of Virgos go ego-surfing: only 21 perYou’d probably prefer to avoid wrangling with cent.

Fast Fact: If the SU men’s basketball team loses at No. 7 Villanova Saturday, it will have four non-conference losses TAKE for just the second time in coach Jim Boeheim’s 39-year tenure.

SU BASKETBALL TEAM OFF TO A ROUGH START — WITH NO END IN SIGHT

s the Syracuse University men’s basketball team was about to start the 2014-15 season, this reporter said Orange fans who were worried about the team’s lack of experience should take a cue from Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who famously told Packers fans earlier this season to just R-E-L-A-X.

Now, one month and nine games into the season, this reporter has another five-letter word for SU fans: P-A-N-I-C. The Orange has had a remarkable run, with 26, 30, 27, 34, 30 and 28 wins and one NCAA Final Four appearance in the past six years. Syracuse has lost a lot of great players during that time and always had skilled replacements, whether it was a veteran who had waited his turn (Kris Joseph) or a freshman who played out of this world (Tyler Ennis). But that streak appears to be over, as this year’s squad is enduring growing pains that head coach Jim Boeheim said may be unprecedented in his 39-year tenure. “Whatever I thought (at the start of the season), they’re not,” Boeheim said after the Orange escaped with a 71-69 win over Louisiana Tech Sunday, Dec. 14, at the Carrier Dome. “I can tell you that right now. This team is not anywhere near a good basket12.17.14 - 12.23.14 | syracusenewtimes.com

ball team. Anywhere.” “I’ve never said that since I’ve been here,” Boeheim added. “Not that they couldn’t be, but they’re not.” Boeheim didn’t mince words after the Orange nearly blew a 10-point lead against LA Tech with three minutes, 46 seconds remaining. LA Tech is a decent team that might very well qualify for this year’s NCAA Tournament out of Conference USA, but it had just surrendered 96 points in its previous game against Louisiana-Lafayette and it was playing at the Dome, where the Orange had won 55 consecutive non-conference games before losing to St. John’s Dec. 6. “This isn’t like the last six years,” Boeheim said. “We’re going to struggle to win a game. This team is not going to beat anybody that’s any good unless they play better. And that means all 18 games in the ACC (Atlantic Coast Conference).”

So what’s the problem? All five starters are being asked to do things they’ve never done at the collegiate level, Boeheim said. As a result, the Orange players are making too many mental and physical mistakes. “Maybe we’re young, all right, maybe,” Boeheim said. “At some point in time, you have to learn certain things, and we’re not. We’re not learning.” Boeheim was particularly peeved at turnovers by forwards Tyler Roberson and B.J. Johnson on fast breaks as they tried to catch passes with one hand and fumbled the ball away. Roberson’s turnover with 4:12 left would have boosted SU’s lead to 12 but instead proved to be the turning point that led to LA Tech’s comeback. “You learn in about ninth grade that you catch the ball with two hands,” Boeheim said. “And if you can’t catch the ball, we can’t play, we can’t win.” Junior guard Trevor Cooney knows where his coach is coming from. The Orange (6-3) plays at No. 7 Villanova Saturday and faces a daunting ACC schedule that includes six top 25 teams (Duke, Louisville, Virginia, Miami, North Carolina and Notre Dame). “He’s looking at the bigger picture,” Cooney said. “He wants to improve, and the game (against LA Tech) shouldn’t have been that close. They’re a pretty good team, but we made the same mistakes, and we can’t make those mistakes any more.” And the bottom line, Boeheim said, is that this team can’t even think about being a good team until it stops making those silly mistakes. “We have a lot of issues to work through and work out, and we’ve got to do the fundamental things right to be in the game — not to win, to be in the game — and then we’ve got to get better to win those games,” he said. “And right now, we’re nowhere near. Not even close. Is that clear?” Crystal. SNT Matt Michael is a freelance writer based in Syracuse. Email him at matt42663@hotmail.com.

GLUTEN-FREE OPTIONS FOR THE HOLIDAYS

ife without gluten doesn’t mean passing on the cookie plate at Christmastime. It might have, at one time, but not anymore.

People with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity/ intolerance bake cookies using rice flour, potato flour, potato starch, corn starch, nut flours and other ingredients. And if you’re not into baking, gluten-free cookies are available in an increasing number of local stores and bakeries. Wegmans recently introduced an assortment of gluten-free treats, available in the bakery departments of all Wegmans stores. The selection includes brownies, chocolate chip cookies, cupcakes and Snickerdoodles. All of the items are baked and packaged in a dedicated gluten-free facility. The offerings are diverse — and more homemade — at area bake shops. Deborah Fuller, owner of Deborah’s Sweet Treats, a gluten-free bakery in Baldwinsville, has been busy baking seasonal cupcakes (gingerbread, white chocolate cranberry, hot cocoa, eggnog red velvet) and an array of cookies. Fuller, a regular vendor on Saturdays at the Central New York Regional Market, says her bakery is noted for its breads, pizza crust, English muffins and cookies.

Fuller was diagnosed with celiac disease about 10 years ago. People with celiac are hypersensitive to gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye, which makes many baked goods off-limits. Fuller was disappointed with the gluten-free breads and other products found in stores and determined to come up with alternatives that taste good and look good. She baked out of her home for five years before opening Deborah’s Sweet Treats in January. “I had a customer tell me, ‘Thank you for making gluten free fun to eat again,’” Fuller says. “I always keep that in the back of my mind.’’ Deborah’s Sweet Treats is at 52 Oswego St., Baldwinsville. Fuller offers cookie trays in a range of choices, sizes and prices. Information: 635-2400, facebook.com/DeborahsSweetTreats SNT Margaret McCormick is a freelance writer and editor in Syracuse.

House specialties include gluten-free breads, pizza, cakes, cupcakes, cookies, muffins, pies and pie crusts. Holiday specialties include gingerbread cut-out cookies, red velvet cake balls, candy cane cupcakes and biscotti. The café offers homemade soups, salads and sandwiches, breakfast pizza and other items. Information: 314-7542, yumyumsglutenfree.com
