If you want to know what to do around town, this paper is your best source. Always has been. Still is.

Mistaken Identity: Sculptor Robert S. Davison is suing the U.S. government for copyright infringement because the U.S. Postal Service used his Las TAKE Vegas sculpture of the Statue of Liberty on 5 billion stamps in 2011 without his permission.

MYSTERY MEAT 1

GANGHAM STYLE

Chicken nuggets contain only 50 percent or less chicken muscle tissue from breasts and thighs, according to Mississippi researchers. The rest is a mix of fat, blood vessels and nerves from skin and internal organs. “Some companies have chosen to use an artificial mixture of chicken parts rather than low-fat chicken white meat, batter it up and fry it and still call it chicken,” said Dr. Richard D. deShazo of the University of Mississippi Medical Center, who reported the study’s findings in the American Journal of Medicine. (Reuters)

South Korean teenagers who can’t afford plastic surgery are turning to do-it-yourself cosmetic enhancements, using cheap tools bought online. Instead of double-eyelid surgery to give them a “Hollywood look,” for example, some teens wear glasses, costing $5 to $20, that force their eyes to stay open without blinking. Another popular item is a $6 jaw roller intended to push the jaw line into a petite, oval form. Another device promises to raise the nose bridge to give a pointed nose. It’s painful but costs only $2. “We want to become pretty without spending all the money,” 17-year-old Na said, explaining that she and her friends started ordering online after seeing Korean talkshow guests demonstrate various gadgets. According to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, South Koreans are the world’s most cosmetically enhanced people. (GlobalPost)

MYSTERY MEAT 2 Two years after concerns over pink slime prompted Fairfax County, Va., to replace additive-filled hamburgers on school lunch menus with all-beef patties, it’s returning to adulterated burgers because students complained the beef burgers didn’t look or taste right. For one thing, their centers were pink, since the all-beef patties lacked caramel coloring. The old burgers contained 27 ingredients, including caramel coloring and pink slime, a combination of beef scraps and connective tissue sprayed with ammonia gas to kill pathogens. The all-beef burgers contained only beef. The new patties have 26 additives, including the caramel coloring but lacking pink slime. “Students are our customers,” Penny McConnell, the county’s food and nutritional service director, said, “and we listen to them and implement their requests if possible.” (The Washington Post)

Tax Dollars at Work Taxpayers in Arlington County, Va., are paying $13,000 for an electronic billboard sign instructing motorists, “Don’t hit the car in front of you.” Police Lt. David Green Jr. defended the sign, saying that previous signs with subtler messages didn’t reduce accidents, almost all of which “are rear-end collisions.” (The Blaze)

Revenge of 17,424 Texts Is this a smartphone that I see before me? When Edd Joseph got scammed, he didn’t have many options. He had bought a Play Station 3 from a vendor calling himself “David Williams.” Williams sent him nothing. All Joseph had was murderous rage in his heart. “Macbeth” was a natural fit. On his cellphone plan Joseph had unlimited texting. As we know from Shakespeare, brevity is the soul of wit, but in the world of texting, length is soul of irritation. So Joseph pasted the entirety of “Macbeth” into a text message. His phone split the message into more than 700 texts. You can imagine Williams’ phone vibrating for hours. however,Joseph wasn’t done yet. Having decided “Though this be madness, yet there is method in’t,” he sent “Hamlet,” Othello and 19 other plays, all broken up into a total of 17,424 texts. (Staff- CBC-Canada)

IN OTHER CRAZINESS: Ukraine and Obama’s poll numbers: “The standoff in Ukraine keeps getting worse.

But a new poll shows Vladimir Putin’s approval rating has actually gone up 10 percent since he sent troops into Crimea. When he heard that, Obama just shrugged and sent troops to invade Canada.” — Jimmy Fallon Obamacare: ”No one has signed up for #Obamacare, give or take 4.2 million people.” — Stephen Colbert Political bumper sticker: IF YOU HUG MY ELEPHANT, I’LL KISS YOUR ASS

Ed Gemar decided the best way to eliminate a fire hazard from a storage building in Great Falls, Mont., was to burn weeds and grass away from the part of the building that was brick and concrete. The fire spread to some dry weeds near a wooden section of the building and destroyed the building and its contents, which included vintage automobiles and farm machinery. (Great Falls Tribune)

n a piece a few years back about J. Ryan’s Pub, I wrote that this place was all about the beer. Well, it’s still all about the beer. Kitchen manager Chris Case told us that the beers continue to change constantly, and there were 17 IPAs alone to choose from on the day we visited. There are 69 beers on tap from all over the world, some I bet you have never heard of. Local breweries were well represented, too, including Empire, Middle Ages, Ithaca and Harvest Moon Ciders. Although not his cup of tea, Case said a lot of the patrons are into sour beers these days, and they are available, as well. When you look over the menu at J. Ryan’s, you’ll be struck by the value pricing. No burger was more than $8; the most expensive menu item wasn’t even $10. We ordered “J. Ryan’s Own,” a burger on an English muffin with ham and cheese, blue cheese and Buffalo wing sauce. The flavors married well, and the drippings were perfect for dunking the waffles-cut fries that came with it. We also customized a chicken sandwich with mushrooms, Swiss cheese and a crazy amount of bacon … sustenance for heading out into the cold after lunch. If you are just up for grazing, there are offerings such as fries, sweet potato tots, Black and Tan beer-battered onion rings, chicken fingers and portobello mushroom fingers. Homemade soups change daily, and a full selection of salads is available. The salad special they were offering when we dined was a spinach salad with strawberries, croutons and Gouda.

Assuming for a minute that warmer weather will come to Syracuse, the patio will be the place to be. The pub will again offer a $5 lunch menu on weekdays that is popular with downtown workers. A friend from work is still talking about a salad special they offered last summer on this menu. Right now, you can stop by two Sundays each month and listen to an Irish music jam session. What goes better with beer? Beer enthusiasts should head over during the last week of April for the Cask Conditioned Beer Festival. Half of the pub will be filled with cradled casks; last year, 31 varieties were offered. You can buy by the sample or purchase a wristband for unlimited tasting. The festival will be 4 to 9 p.m. Friday, April 25; 2 to 7 p.m. Saturday, April 26; and 1 to 6 p.m. Sunday, April 27. The regular menu will also be offered. Call for pricing and other information.

Favorite Menu Item:

Am I allowed to say beer? Not just my favorite, it’s one of the most popular: Stone Brewery’s IPA “Enjoy By 4/20.” Once the date passes, the brewery will produce another batch with a different “enjoy by” date. The current batch is clean-tasting and not very hoppy.

— Former President Jimmy Carter, commenting on the NSA

charity begins at home Last week, I had an interesting correspondence with an old friend named Chaz, a pastor in a Midwestern church that would be considered by most people to fall on the liberal side of most political issues. Chaz was writing about the decision by World Vision, the mammoth international charity organization best known for allowing kind-hearted First World folks to sponsor needy Third World children, to open employment to married same-sex couples. The announcement came with a reminder that the evangelical-based organization still considered homosexuality a sin. World Vision President Richard Stearns said that the unanimous decision by the organization’s board “allows us to treat all of our employees the same way: abstinence outside of marriage, and fidelity within marriage.” My friend, who has for years sponsored a child in Central America via World Vision, thought of this as a step forward. I could see his point, but I pressed him on the issue. It’s not about how they decide on the issue of other people’s love lives; it’s the fact that they take it upon themselves to decide at all. How is it, I wondered, that one group gets to choose for another? How does one person decide that another has the right to be who they are, or not? It didn’t seem right that access to the right to be married should be determined by the vote of a board. And how kind is it to offer you a job along with a reminder that you were going to burn in hell. I just wasn’t feeling the love. Chaz is a thoughtful guy, and we began to delve into our areas of disagreement and to find some common ground, when World

New Times Rising I’m hoping that you have noticed some new things going on at the New Times lately. Counter to the trends in some towns … and well, some parts of this town … your alternative weekly has decided to dig itself in and try to expand our coverage of important issues, in print as well as online. In this space, you can expect to see the same brand of commentary on issues local and global that has been appearing under the banner of Sanity Fair for nearly 10 years. I welcome ideas and suggestions for topics.

Vision cut the whole discussion short by announcing that the board members were changing their minds. Even 48 hours of welcoming all of us into the fold was apparently too much for the leaders of World Vision. “The board acknowledged they made a mistake and chose to revert to our longstanding conduct policy requiring sexual abstinence for all single employees and faithfulness within the Biblical covenant of marriage between a man and a woman,” said a statement signed Stearns and by Jim Beré, chairman of the World Vision U.S. board. The statement apologized for its failure to be consistent with the Bible’s teachings. “One step forward, two steps back,” wrote Chaz. SNT

More importantly, you’ll see our news coverage expanding. We hope to make our modest contribution to informing the Syracuse community on issues that may be falling between the cracks in coverage elsewhere. We don’t pretend to have the answer to the shrinking presence of professional news gatherers in our town; we can only promise to keep shining a light and telling you what we see. Help us out. I’ll take seriously any ideas that come my way. This week’s cover story: We’re not interested in merely sounding alarm bells,

but we do think the residents of Onondaga County have a legitimate interest in knowing when dangerous cargo is coming through our backyards. When a major rail shipper says it can’t tell us what’s on the train … well, we think you ought to know that. When the county official responsible for emergency management doesn’t think it’s important enough to tell us what the plan is in case of a derailment or an explosion … well, we think maybe you should know about that. (By the way, his name is Kevin Wisely and his number is 435-2525. I hope you have better luck than I did).

Shaving Points It’s a dilemma too many Orange fans face going into the Final Four weekend. You picked based on your head instead of your heart, and now you’ve got a bracket that’s in contention while the Orange are sitting on the sidelines. There’s no denying the quotient of shame and the heavy burden I bear for not picking Boeheim’s guys to go all the way this year. Every year until now, I’ve picked the Orange, only to watch cooler heads (or luckier ones, like my nephew Leo, who chooses based on the team) pocket the hundred bucks that my late, father-in-law, George Winters, endowed this bracket with. This year, I’m tied for the lead, with a good chance of taking the prize. So if I should win, what am I going to do with this blood money? There can be no enjoying this booty based on basketball betrayal. So here’s the deal: If I win, the money goes to Bodie Centore, the cute kid you see in the photos. Bodie is one of the hundreds of people who had their heads shaved this weekend at Kitty Hoynes at part of the campaign by St. Baldrick’s Foundation to conquer childhood cancer. To learn more about it — or even better, to help — visit, the Baldacious Baldies, at tinyurl.com/oalw3ao. You might not feel less guilty for picking against the home team, but at least you can put that blood money to a good cause. And you’ll know for sure that you have picked a team of winners. SNT One of my favorite quotes about journalism is usually attributed to George Orwell. Sometimes Bill Moyers is credited with saying it: “Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed. Everything else is public relations.” It’s unlikely that either Moyers or Orwell ever said it, but it sums up pretty well the type of news reporting the New Times seeks to nurture. And today it’s more important than ever. Stick with us. We’re all figuring this out together. SNT

Welcome to humor in the Digital Age Welcome to the new Syracuse New Times, and to my little corner of it. Have you ever heard the expression good things come in small packages? It’s particularly true of my column. Because no one stopped me before, I have assaulted readers each week with tiresome alleged humor articles, some of which droned on for 1,000 words or more and contained pre-Digital Age features such as a beginning, middle and end. That ends today. According to exciting new media research conducted in 1996, newspaper readers don’t want to read anything longer than a hamster dropping, which is fantastic for me personally because, to be honest, I don’t like to write, either. It’s hard. It’s boring. Just like you, I’m happier living on my phone and communicating via digital semaphore: “Where R U?” “Pking” “K” That’s why this new multi-element layout is ideal for all. In fact, I have breaking news there: I just did a word count of how much I have written in this segment, and I’m at 176 words, meaning I’m almost done. My allotted 300word limit can be doubled in the event I feel extra motivated.

Don’t hold your breath. Goodness, we barely have time for a joke: A waiter nervously approaches two elderly Jewish ladies and asks, “Is anything all right?” One final note: My editors are now trusting me to expound on a variety of topics, funny or not. So look here for not just award-winning humor, but for hard-hitting investigations and useful real-time information. For example, during a talk I attended last week at the Century Club, Syracuse Airport Commissioner Christina Callahan (very hot, btw) noted that one of every three pilots who takes off from Hancock International is naked. You’ll find more bits and pieces on this page. SNT

FOLKS, I AM GOING TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST HERE:

I am not prepared to fill this space. It appears I misread the online instruction manual for how to produce this page, and I didn’t know about this box. As the official humorist of the Syracuse New Times, I take my responsibilities seriously — not seriously enough to issue a refund, but pretty seriously. Please accept my apology, and rest assured that this will never happen again. Speaking of rest, for all your burial and cremation needs, trust Macko-Vassallo Funeral Home on West Genesee Street.

The injustice of the Kentucky Wildcats making it to the Final Four is almost too much to take if you’re an SU fan. The ‘cats had an uninspiring start to their season, and their middle wasn’t much better. Then they had the nerve to start getting better … and better. Now they’re awesome. Can someone please tell them that November and December is when you should play your best. That’s how the ‘Cuse rolls. Go Orange!

Who’s Tops? For most Central New Yorkers, Tops v. Wegmans isn’t much of a contest. The big “W” reigns supreme, raking in more awards and attention by far. But in one area — baked goods — Tops is closing ground and may have even surpassed its more upscale rival. Our family’s opinion is that Tops has better cookies, specialty desserts, breakfast cakes and pastries and more variety overall. Please, Wegmans: Can we call a temporary moratorium on the profiteroles? Wegmans still does a better job with bread, bagels and scones. No matter where you shop, it’s important to eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and Bacardi 151.

They Got Me by the Cort and Curlies Just in time for April Fool’s Day, I ordered a pack of Junior Mints and a ginger ale at a Broadway show this past weekend. “Fifteen dollars,” the vendor said. “Did you just say $15?” I replied. “Yes,” the vendor said. The price perfectly reflected the absurdist play I was watching, Waiting for Godot. It starred the former commander of the Starship Enterprise (the bald one) and that Lord of the Rings guy, Sir Ian McPleaseSpeakEnglish. Both showed a lot of acting potential in this critic’s view. Godot’s meaning has always been unclear. Personally, I think it’s about two homeless guys waiting for a $60,000-a-year job at Destiny USA that never arrives. What is not subject to interpretation is the Cort Theater’s concession prices. Existentially speaking, they mean: “Godot screw yourself.”

Nighttime noises touch off primordial fears, as was the case the other night when my wife, Leigh, and I were settling in for bed. We heard a thumpthump on our street like maybe a parked car blasting the stereo with the windows closed. I peered through our windows. Nothing. Finally I threw on some clothes and headed into the late winter chill. As I walked up our hill to investigate, the noise got louder, and ... Sorry. Out of space.

local expat says obama nsa changes present difficult challenge

P

resident Barack Obama was visiting with the pope when the White House unveiled his proposal to revamp the way the National Security Agency gets access to information

about our phone calls and other electronic communications. Neither the president nor the pontiff commented about whether they discussed electronic eavesdropping. Living quietly in our midst here in Central New York is a man who speaks with even greater authority on the delicate balance between privacy rights and national security. William Banks is an attorney and the founding director of the Institute of National Security and Counterterrorism, a joint project of Syracuse University’s College of Law and its Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. Considered one of the nation’s leading thinkers on the topic, Banks is on sabbatical while he writes a book, Safe at Home? The Role of the Military in Domestic Affairs. The book should be published next year by Harvard University Press (and you thought “Do you think God hears your prayers? I know I do.” (Doug Mills/The New York Times) that Harvard was just a basketball powerhouse). Obama’s proposal, a long-awaited “The telecommunications companies response to Edward Snowden’s revelations routinely save data for 18 months.

WHO’S IN CHARGE? So, you’ve found the Rant & Rave corner. What goes here? You go here. If you are passionate about what’s right or wrong about Central New York, here is a corner for you to vent. Rant in poetry. Rant in prose. Rant against the bad. Rave for the good. Here are the rules: No anonymous essays. Have a point-of-view, express it like you mean it and know what you are talking about. We are not looking for “on the other-hand” essays. Be civil. No personal attacks. No libel. No slander. Topics? Your choice: culture, policy, politics. There are two (and only two) essay lengths: 350 words, and 740 words. Whaddya mean by rant? Well, let’s turn to the Rant King, the late comedian George Carlin, for the answer. Sometimes showing is better than telling. Here are Carlin’s observations about the American Dream. Just look to Albany or Washington to see how politicians and those who would influence them deal with corruption and influence. Not much has changed. Rant away, George ... “But there’s a reason. There’s a reason. There’s a reason for this, there’s a reason education sucks, and it’s the same reason it will never, ever, ever be fixed. It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it, be happy with what you’ve got. Because the owners, the owners of this country don’t want that. “I’m talking about the real owners now, the big owners! The wealthy … the real owners! The big, wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don’t. You have no choice! You have owners! They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls. They got the judges in their back pockets, and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear.

15 things only syracusans know By Allie Healy

A month of Internet cold turkey By Courtney Gillette Last month, some people pledged to give up technology for one day. Where’s the challenge in that? Turning off your smart phone for a few hours is hardly revolutionary. Anyone who’s forgotten their charger knows how that feels. How about no Internet for a whole month? From August 6 through Sept. 3 last year, I gave up the Internet. This has become my summer tradition: a detox from Facebook and Buzzfeed lists, compulsive e-mail checking and scrolling Instagram before I get out of bed. My rules for the detox were unchanged: one hour of e-mail checking every Sunday, plus permission to hop online to submit book reviews and other freelance projects.And I allowed myself to binge on episodes of The Lying Game on Netflix. But mostly, I read, wrote, rode my bike, baked, saw

friends and stared out the window. I’m someone who’s madly in love with the Internet but also seriously lacking in self-discipline. I walk around with my nose tucked not in a novel but an iPhone. It was lovely to take a big break, then the break was over and my fingers tickled the keyboard. Hello September, and hello Internet! Back from my one-month hiatus and partially overwhelmed (Facebook! So busy! So much to look at!)? Here’s what my Internet-free month looked like, by the numbers: Books I read: 11, plus five poetry/ essay manuscripts for friends. This includes two books for book reviews. Words written: 22,199 … and I constantly berated myself for not writing more. Writers! We’re crazy! Number of crap emails I got: 827. Lesson learned: Email—it is mostly

Having been born and raised in Syracuse, I seize any chance to defend and represent my hometown. When I moved from the Salt City to Ithaca to attend college, I didn’t think that I’d have to convince my classmates, friends, professors, etc. that Syracuse is more than a massive mall and record-breaking snowfalls. Let me say, it’s been a long four years. There is something awesome about being from Syracuse that non-Syracusans just don’t understand. Sure, you might have rooted for the Orange at the Carrier Dome while visiting your friend at SU, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. You really know you’re from Syracuse when … You get separation anxiety from Wegmans. Let’s face it, Wegmans is by far one of the best grocery chains out there. It doesn’t help when people don’t understand why you get random cravings for gummis, sushi or a chicken parm sub and can’t immediately satisfy that hankering.

You may not know when winter is coming, but when it does, you’re prepared …

Frank Cammuso

… And while the snow continues to fall well into spring, you’re not fazed by it.

Your happiness during the wintery months depends on how well the Syracuse University men’s basketball team is doing. Unfortunately happiness turned as gray as the skies after Syracuse lost


to Dayton in the second round of the NCAA men’s tournament.

Fest, the Taste of Syracuse, Polish Fest and Jazz Fest. Oh, yes. Cue the drinks!

INTERNET crap! It is a lot of junk from J. Crew! The most important email I got over the entire four weeks was one telling me I was awarded a residency I applied for (!). They sent it on a Tuesday and I saw it on a Sunday. Life goes on! Times I cheated and just had to Google something: four. How to make cake flour,

The Boeheims are famous around town, as is Jim’s frequently televised nose-pick. Once in awhile you’ll catch Juli at the hairdressers or incognito at Wegmans. And then you text everyone you know.

Nothing quite compares to the first day of 70-degree weather.

You’ve braved Destiny USA only to realize why you never frequent that place.

how to get a library card, how to stretch pizza dough and, technically, I forced my girlfriend to Google Beyonce’s new haircut because, c’mon, I had to. Number of letters and postcards I sent:

six.

You aren’t confused by the upside-down traffic light on Tipp Hill. It’s the only one of its kind in the world and, spoiler alert, the correct answer is, “C: Irish.”

Number of TV shows I gorged on: three, including two seasons of “The Lying Game,” four episodes of “Pretty Little Liars” and three seasons of “Skins.” Many people were skeptical that I wasn’t online but I was watching Netflix. And seeing how I watched hours upon hours of bad television because of this loophole, I get it. Number of Facebook notifications I had:

92. Number of times I missed Facebook: 0. But to admit, when I did finally log back on and see my friends’ names and photos and links to hilarious Buzzfeed articles, I thought, “Oh! My friends! I missed them!”

And no other barbecue compares to Dinosaur BBQ. Everything else is child’s play.

Sometimes all you need is a Heid’s hot dog. Or four. And fries. Adam Richman of Man vs. Food approves of the mixed double (hot dog and coney in one bun).

Summer means flocking to Gannon’s or Sno Top for ice cream every night.

Starting the day means a bagel and iced coffee from Bruegger’s.

You know there is no better place to people-watch than the state fair. Also, all the food you have ever wanted is there. Gianelli sausage, baked potatoes, ice cream, fried everything … shall I continue?

You shudder at the words, “It’s gonna be huge!” You can thank car salesman Billy Fuccillo for that one.

Number of times I read a cookbook instead of Googling a recipe: 21. Cookbooks,

who knew?! So relaxing. Things I was dying to Google: Beyonce’s haircut … again, I know; baking soda vs. baking powder; free financial planning courses; cruiser bike; that Drake song with the chorus, “still got it”; is neutral milk hotel back together?; why was “The Lying Game” cancelled?; when does “Scandal” start again?; why is everyone talking about Miley Cyrus? Biggest takeaways from this hiatus: It’s nice to wake up and not check my email. I kept replacing it with “wake up and play Spell Tower,” but once I deleted my games, I seriously curbed the hit-snooze-andsquint-at-my-iPhone habit. The Internet time-sucked for me, but especially Google. In my first return-to-Internet day, I watched myself have a thought: How would I make gluten-free cornmeal pizza crust? Stop to Google it, and spend eight minutes reading recipes. This happened in bed with a book in my lap at 11 at night — WHY?! Why did I need to know about cornmeal pizza crust right there and then? Instant information: It’s too dangerous for me. I’m gonna try and keep my information-seeking on a need-only basis. Give me a big hug, Internet. I kinda missed you. Courtney Gillette is a writer, ex-teacher and a lover of milkshakes.

CHARGE more for themselves and less for everybody else, but I’ll tell you what they don’t want: “They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That’s against their interests. That’s right. They don’t want people who are smart enough to sit around a kitchen table and think about how badly they’re getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. They don’t want that! “You know what they want? They want obedient workers. Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shitty jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it, and now they’re coming for your Social Security money. They want your retirement money. They want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street, and you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all from you sooner or later cause they own this fucking place! It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it! You, and I, are not in the big club. “By the way, it’s the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table has tilted, folks. The game is rigged and nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care! Good, honest, hard-working people — white collar, blue collar, it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on — good, honest, hard-working people continue, these are people of modest means, continue to elect these rich (bastards) who don’t give a fuck about you. “They don’t care about you at all … at all … at all. And nobody seems to notice. Nobody seems to care. “That’s what the owners count on. The fact that Americans will probably remain willfully ignorant … because the owners of this country know the truth. It’s called the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it.” Wake up, readers. Let your voice be heard.

Grant Reeher (GR): I wanted to start by getting a sense of the scale of some of the changes that The Post-Standard has gone through in recent years, and I wanted to peg this to the first buyout of the staff that happened in 2007. What is the size of the full-time reporting staff now compared with, say, right before that time? Tim Kennedy (TK): Well, I’ve only been on the ground here for a year, so the history going that far back is a little foreign to me. Our staff currently is about around 100 when we look at sort of news gathering and digital operations. Direct comparisons are also difficult because one of the things we did was, you mentioned The Post-Standard, but Syracuse.com — which is a big part of the operation in Syracuse.com — is actually coming up on its 20th anniversary. … We had to fold Syracuse.com, which was operating somewhat independently, into the operations at The Post-Standard as we created this new business that we call the Syracuse Media Group. But, we’re around 100, sort of news gathering, reporting staff, digital operations type folks.

GR: It’s my impression as a reader of the paper, and I’ve been a reader of it for 20 years, that the proportions of the content have changed a lot in recent years as well as the overall amount of the news that’s in it. … What is the proportion of the paper’s entire content that’s devoted to substantive local and state news stories that are written by your reporters? How has that changed in the last five years or so? TK: I don’t have hard data, but my sense is, especially in the past year, the proportion of local news or regional news is higher as a proportion of (the) total, especially if you look at the Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday home-delivered newspapers. That’s where we … try to build and put together the best local package for those subscribers, for those print subscribers, as we can. But it’s all built upon really a different way of reporting, which has us looking at how do we create? How do we report the news with an eye toward the digital world, and digital platforms first?

GR: That’s interesting, because that does run counter to my impression as a reader. … It feels like it’s a shorter [news] read for me than it used to be.

04.02.14 - 04.09.14 | syracusenewtimes.com

TK: There’s actually more content in the paper on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays than there was before we made the change. And I think, again, proportionally, when you look at local news, there’s more local news.

GR: And you’ve mentioned the online piece a couple of times. Can you give me a brief description of the business model that informs the shift? TK: Sure. Well, it starts with the old business model, I think. And that’s the one that you, and many, are familiar with, where we had a lot of readers and they paid us, and we had advertising who wanted to reach those readers, and they paid, and that created a great position where we were able to hire and put a lot of reporters and journalists on staff, and it was a great business model for the better part of 160 or 170 years. Since (2000), advertising revenue for the U.S. newspaper industry has declined about 60 percent, so the new business model really starts with the decline and the demise of the old business model. I think where we are and the decisions that we made, started with that conclusion that the old business model wasn’t going to sustain us into the future. We could not bury our heads in the sand and wait for that world to return; it was not going to return. So we had to figure out, how do we survive and thrive in the new world, in the new world that is digital? We’re on campus here at Syracuse (University), and you just have to look at how the students behave, how they are getting news and information, to understand that it is today, and tomorrow even more so, is going to be a digital world. So our new business model is based upon the idea that we need to deliver, in some ways, the same news and information that we’ve always provided, but we have to do that into a world and a consumer that’s digital first. And so, how do we that?

GR: Is it working? I mean, did the paper turn a profit last year? TK: We are profitable, and I think it is working. … I think the early returns are quite good. Our digital revenue is growing at a 30-plus percent rate. Our audience continues to explode in terms of growth; February of this year was our best traffic month of all time. … So, what I tell our folks is I think The Post-Standard has been a tremendous newspaper for generations. And I think the latest results tell us that we’re on the right track, that the wheels have not fallen off, and we should take pride in that.


tim kennedy revenue as Americans turn more to the Internet as a source of their information. In this edition of the Campbell Conversations, Grant Reeher talks with the head of the company, Tim Kennedy, about changes in the news business, the aftermath of the new emphasis on reporting online and what the future may hold. GR: I would have thought that when the paper starting having this round of deep financial problems — that you’ve reacted to by creating this new model — I would have thought that the Newhouse family would have come in and shored up the paper, given that the (S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University) is here, the paper’s award-winning history and (given) I believe the really distinctive piece of history for that family’s investment in papers, that Syracuse means to them. Why didn’t that happen? TK: Well, I’d argue that it did happen. I think if by investing in print and doubling down on the old business model — we clearly didn’t do that. But I think the family and the leadership looked at the future, and didn’t look at the future with an eye toward what did we used to be, but what do we need to be in order to not only be successful, but survive and thrive in 10 years?

GR: I do want to push you on this because it’s one thing to say this from a business perspective, but the paper does have a unique and central role for the public and civic life of the city. Correct me if I’m wrong, but in the rounds of the buyouts, you did lose a lot of reporters whose beats were things concerned with community and politics and public affairs in the city. You lost a lot of folks, and so it’s hard for me to see in that regard, that this is an improvement. TK: Well, we’ve hired 50 people, we’ve got a lot of people on staff. We’ve done a lot of great journalism. … I think we have done a number of tremendous stories in the past year, and we’ve won 18 awards in the New York Associated Press competition in the past year. Some of those were new folks, some of those were folks that have been with the paper a long time. But, we have done, whether it is the Lockheed Martin story that we broke, where Lockheed was working on a plan to shut down, the largest private employer in Syracuse. We broke that story, it was an anonymous tip — came to us. We had to do old-fashioned journalism and find and make that story happen. And as a result of the work that we did, Sen. (Charles) Schumer got involved, and the company promised that they would keep the plant and not shut it down for a year. So that’s old-fashioned journalism and that was a great story. The story we’ve had recently about the [Carrier] Dome, or the Dome replacement. Again, how we broke that story, how fast that story broke, was something that we did. And we’ve had a series of stories like that.

GR: Does this new model affect how you choose stories? TK: It does. We have, in some sense, we have and we’ve improved the data that we get about stories that people are reading. And we look at that, and we say, “OK, well, what does that tell us about working that story more?” Or what doesn’t it? So there’s always been news judgment and editors who have looked at the community, looked at the sourcing of stories, looked at the maturity of the story and decided whether we should work it hard or whether we should call it a day, or whether we need to get that to the front page. We still do that.

GR: This is something that you know always gets discussed when the topic of Syracuse.com comes up, and that’s the comments. The anonymous nature of the comments have always been an issue, I think, for folks in the community. I just visited the site this morning and found a lot that were pretty bad. Some other papers and sites have changed that anonymous feature and made people put their real names to things. Why have you not done that? TK: Well, I think a couple things. One, it’s not as though we demand that the site be anonymous, right? So if you want to disclose your own name — like I do, and many folks do — you put your name in and you put your user name in, and it could be you. … So, it doesn’t have to be anonymous.

GR: No, but it can be, and that’s the thing. TK: And it largely is, agreed. I think the other thing that you hear is, “well why don’t you verify?” Well, many of the verification systems, again, I think you’ll find other media companies that use, say Facebook, and so you can sign in on Facebook and I can pull a number of examples of dialogue where people disclose who they are through their Facebook identity, that are every bit as offensive as some of the comments that come through our anonymous comments. At the end of the day, what we’re trying to do is engage the community in a new way that you frankly couldn’t before in a print, one-way conversation. … So what we’ve found, and I think the answer is, we’re improving the technology. So we’re working on a new commenting platform now, and that’ll help us. So I think the answer is going to be, the way we improve, and we want to improve the tone and the quality of that comment. Because, when it’s good, I mean people can always go and point out the

poor commenting and the offensive commenting, and there’s no doubt about that. But when it’s good, and there’s plenty of time where that commenting is excellent, it’s good, and it adds value to stories, it adds value to the dialogue and the community, and we’d like to see more of that. So somewhere between improving the technology to allow us to weed out more of the offensive comments, and the other thing that we’re doing is, where we see reporters dive into the comments and respond — and we’re quicker to move and delete comments that don’t abide by our commenting policy — we see that the tone of that conversation improved dramatically. And I can tell you that from personal experience. I mean, the stories where either I’m a part of or quoted or have to do with the business of the paper and Syracuse. com, I’ll dive in and talk to people, and where I don’t agree, I’ll let people know, and I think where we see that kind of engagement, we see the quality improve in that discussion. So, it is uncomfortable, it is uncomfortable for many people. It’s uncomfortable for us. But we want to continue again, to try to improve how we engage the community there … we’d like to see that improve as opposed to abandoning that commentary altogether.

GR: You had a newspaper that had the Sunday circulations around 200,000 at one point. So what’s the number of unique individuals that are now driving this conversation? I’ve got to imagine it’s much smaller than that. TK: If you’re talking about pages and how audiences are related, which would relate to circulation size, we’ve expanded our audience. We did 39 million page views, 3 million unique visitors — somewhere around there. And we reach, on a weekly basis, somewhere between 20 and 25 percent of adults in Syracuse will go to Syracuse.com in any given week. So, it’s a big number, and those folks are coming maybe once, maybe they’re coming for sports. Maybe they’re engaging more frequently. You know, we’re getting smarter about understanding how customers are coming to us both on a desktop, and in a mobile environment, which is exploding. SNT

In most celebrity-inventor stories you hear, the celebrity is more or less in the business of inventing things or had TAKe others do the inventing for them. For example, filmmaker George Lucas has his name on many inventions, but most came out of his movie special-effects shop, Industrial Light and Magic.

I was just watching Animal Planet, and they said in one of their “Fun Facts” that Isaac Newton invented the cat door. Can this possibly be true? Reminds me of another story I came across: Old-school pinup Hedy Lamarr invented a torpedo guidance system. Hedy Lamarr? — A Fascinated Fan, Atlanta

Fighting ignorance since

(It’s taking longer than we thought)

Did Isacc Newton Invent the Cat Door? Isaac Newton inventing the cat door is the stupidest thing I ever heard. Well, that’s not true. At the Straight Dope, where we’ve got people asking us if they can get high sniffing Sharpies, the competition for stupidest thing is pretty fierce. However, this one is definitely up there. The Newton cat-flap idea has been kicking around for (seriously) more than 200 years. Here’s the whole story, as best I can disentangle it: 1. Isaac Newton (1642-1727) did much of his pioneering work in mathematics and optics at Trinity College, Cambridge. There’s no evidence he had a dog or cat. 2. After Newton’s death, his story became encrusted with the usual legends. According to a 2011 history of Trinity, “Newton mythology has it that he invented the cap flap in order to allow his cat to leave his rooms without disturbing the light while he conducted experiments into optics. The earliest known version of this is from an essay of 1802 which [in defense of the Irish cites] examples of English incompetence ... asserting that Newton cut two holes in his door for the cat and its kitten, not realizing that the kitten would follow the cat.” 3. In a memoir in 1827 of his years as a Trinity scholar a century after Newton, mathematician John M.F. Wright relates the above yarn, adding this embellishment: “Whether this account be true or false, indisputably true is it that there are in the door to this day two plugged holes of the proper dimensions for the respective egresses of cat and kitten.” I haven’t been able to confirm the existence of the former holes, as the little researcher stationed in Britain elected to attend Oxford instead. However, assuming Wright wasn’t lying, we may conjecture as follows: Someone spots holes of unknown provenance in door to Newton’s old rooms, assumes Newton put them there, notes they’re the right size to fit cats and contrives a story to fit the holes. 4. Told initially to illustrate the foolishness of the wise, this much-recounted tale was seized upon by someone, presumably a cat fancier, for the different purpose of establishing that one of the great scientific minds had devoted a few clock cycles to inventing a convenience for cats. This is the form in which the tale is mostly seen today. 5. However, even if the holes were Newton’s doing, the early accounts don’t

Slug Signorino illustration

say Newton invented the cat door or flap, which is the crux of the claim. Merely cutting a hole in a larger door as an animal entrance long predates Newton. Online we find a photo of a cat hole in a door from 15th-century France, and a cat hole figures in “The Miller’s Tale” from Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, written in the late 1300s. I got the latter from Wikipedia, which some will find unseemly, but (a) just because it’s in Wikipedia doesn’t prove it’s wrong, and (b) I checked in Chaucer, and it’s there. In short, Newton the cat-flap inventor = crock. A few Hollywood types did invent things that had little or nothing to do with their careers. Examples: — As for actress-slash-weapons-inventors, to cite the bestknown example, yes, actress Hedy Lamarr and composer George Antheil were awarded a 1942 patent for a “frequency-hopping” device. To prevent radio-guided torpedoes from being jammed by the other side, their invention changed transmission frequencies at short intervals. Transmitter and receiver were kept synchronized on the same wavelength by matching player piano rolls in both. Navy brass balked at putting tiny player pianos in weapons, and the technology wasn’t employed by the military until the 1960s. But it’s proven durable since then; you can find frequency-hopping spread-spectrum technology in some cellphones. — In 1998, magician Penn Jillette patented a “hydro-therapeutic stimulator,” basically, a bathtub orgasmatron for women featuring a user-controlled water jet plus a vibrating seat. One admires this classic case of filling a niche. Nonetheless … — ... my favorite celebrity inventor remains Neil Young, whose name is listed on 22 patents for model-railroad technology. I suspect Neil was more the facilitator than the prime mover on these inventions (at one time, he held a minority interest in Lionel). But to see a rock legend in an engineer’s cap at the controls of a roomful of model choo-choos — all I can say is: 1) been there, and 2) who knew?

tech in movies (versus real life) Here are a few randomly chosen items of technology seen in movies and their counterparts, if any, in real life. 1) Artificial Intelligence In film: HAL 9000 in 2001: A Space Odyssey There are few villains in flesh and bones that are more sinister than this robot in the Stanley Kubrick classic that can take over an entire space mission and commit multiple homicides on a whim. The character is terrifying, a haunting menace that imprints upon the mind long after the end credits to the already macabre film. In real life: Apple’s Siri is nearly almost as destructive when you ask her to find the nearest gas station and she texts your ex instead. Nicely done. I have yet to see Spike Jonze’s Her but I hear it’s fantastic: definitely on the wish list. 2) Star Wars “stuff” There’s a long list here, but I’ll cut it short. Whether it’s inventing a laser beam that can be controlled enough to act as a sword without cutting your own head off (not happening), inventing space ships that defy the laws of physics on a whim (yeah, right) or perhaps making a droid that can shut off all the power converters on the detention level without the dramatic time lapse – that stuff’s just not happening. Sorry folks. A wookie, on the other hand? I swear I’ve seen those walking around at Wal-Mart with Jabba the Hutt’s kids. 3) Star Trek In film: Really slow-tempo-ed sci-fi. In real life: J. J. Abrams did it better in the reboot. Then there’s the Holodeck. 4) A Time Machine Whether it’s Back to the Future or the movie/book of the same name, this also defies physics, unless you take into account Einstein’s time theory, or believe the Large Hadron Collider seconds as a time machine. Then there’s always the “fly to Australia” theory and/or the “go to bed and wake up and it’s tomorrow” theory. That one works for me every once and a while. And the Back to the Future clothing that you can

I would never hoverboard to Wal-Mart again. 5) James Bond’s watch The new iWatch is pretty sexy, if you enjoy writing a novel on the convenience of your wrist. Of course, there’s always Android Wear, but everyone knows Apple products are better. For everyone. No matter what your opinion is. Still, there are few things that will charm a woman more than Sean Connery saying, “Shaken, not stirred,” with a Rolex that could literally kill somebody. It definitely makes for great cocktail party conversation. 6) Virtual Reality Well, I know for a fact that Jelly Belly makes some pretty kick-ass “red and blue pills” (insert overly dramatic but cool Laurence Fishburne voice), but what we are really talking about is getting lots of needles stuck in your head. Playstation 4 has recently released a “Morpheus” headset that completely removes the video game user’s perception of reality. It comes with a severe warning to use only alone in a padded room with the door locked. Otherwise, an indefinite number of fraternity-level pranks can be easily pulled on the enthusiastic gamer. I’m sure we will begin to see some really great YouTube videos along these lines. SNT

A SPECIAL NEW TIMES REPORT

IS SYRACUSE READY FOR VOLATILE CRUDE OIL? Tank cars similar to these, on a bridge over West Genesee Street on the West Side of Syracuse, carry the Bakken Shale oil east to Albany. The trains with the shale oil are often a hundred cars long, and they include only the oil cars. Photo by Michael Davis.

Frequently freight trains from North Dakota roll through Syracuse with highly volatile Bakken crude oil. Writer Ed Griffin-Nolan examines Onondaga County’s readiness to handle a derailment disaster. What he found is, they are not.

The derailment and explosion in July in Lac Megantic, Quebec, was front-page news in Le Journal de Montreal.

When you think of crude oil, you might think Texas, or Louisiana. You probably don’t think North Dakota, and you certainly don’t think Syracuse. But a vast new find in North Dakota’s Bakken Shale oil fields has begun to produce so much oil that the nation’s pipelines cannot get it to refineries fast enough. The surplus oil makes its way to coastal refineries on railroad cars that experts call unsafe. The main trunk line from North Dakota east runs through the Midwest and past Syracuse to Albany, where the oil is moved onto barges for the trip down the Hudson River. Every two and a half hours, a train of 100 cars leaves North Dakota laden with crude oil, and it is a variety that safety experts fear is too volatile for the cars that haul it.

Since a fire and explosion in July destroyed part of Lac Megantic, Quebec, Canada, and killed 47 people, rail safety experts have called for changes in how this oil is transported. On Jan. 28, Gov. Andrew Cuomo directed three state agencies to come up with plans for stricter oversight of oil shipments. “New York state is taking swift and decisive action to ensure its readiness for potential disasters,” Cuomo wrote. Yet Onondaga County has yet to take any steps toward achieving that readiness. The Syracuse deputy fire chief responsible for hazardous materials says that the county is still trying to get information from the railroads and has done no training specific to the derailment of a shale oil train. The county official responsible for emergency management has ignored repeated requests for information about the shipments or about plans for dealing with accidents. In DeWitt, long freight trains move slowly in and out of the rail yard, a hub for the railway operator CSX Corp. Robert Sullivan, who speaks for the railroad, says it moves

“I would be shocked if they haven’t been trained by the rail company. They can get training and information. The railroad will provide it.”

— Larry Mann, rail safety expert

“about 14 trains with oil per week,” but CSX will not tell the public if Bakken oil goes through the DeWitt hub. Sullivan calls that commercial information but adds that “CSX has a long history of working with emergency responders across its system and makes information about the materials handled available to those agencies on request.” Just a few hundred yards from the eastern end of the yard, four firefighters shoot the breeze at Minoa’s Fire Station No. 1 on a chilly early spring evening. None of the volunteer firefighters had heard anything about shale oil coming through, much less been trained for an accident involving the oil. “CSX is pretty tight-lipped,” said the senior man in the room, who did not wish to give his name. “They don’t tell us anything.” “If anything happens in the yard,” he said, “we’re the ones who get called. Usually it’s

just a boxcar fire, or a spill of some kind.” The older firefighters can recall a hazardous materials training class perhaps six years ago; the younger ones say they haven’t had any such training. At the fire station closest to the CSX yard, no one has had training in how to handle a shale oil explosion or fire. Larry Mann literally wrote the book on railroad safety. He was the principal drafter of the Railroad Safety Act of 1970. Mann, an attorney in Washington, D.C., works for the railroad workers union, testifies before Congress regularly and has spent a lifetime advising carriers on rail safety issues. Mann believes that local emergency responders should already have been trained in how to deal with Bakken Shale oil. “I would be shocked if they haven’t been trained by the rail company,” Mann said in February by telephone from his office. “They can get training and information. The railroad will provide it.” It has not. On Feb. 17, an employee answering the phone at the County Emergency Management office was unaware that oil trains were passing through the county. Months after the first reports of volatile crude oil traveling through upstate New York, CSX has yet to fully brief Onondaga County officials on the hazards of the oil. Mark Zoanetti, deputy chief of the Syracuse Fire Department for special operations, said Feb. 26 that he was “just recently familiar” with the oil shipments. “It’s early in the program,” Zoanetti said. “I spoke with (County Emergency Management Commissioner) Kevin Wisely to find out if it is coming through Central New York and how much. There is no pre-planning as to this product. That will be in the near future. My understanding is that Wisely has reached out to CSX. . . there is not a lot of information thus far.” “We don’t know definitively, but we are pretty sure (it passes through Syracuse),” Zoanetti said. It was not until March 18 that the county held its first meeting with the Syracuse Fire Department and with Oswego County officials dealing with the issue. Zoanetti said there were “no big changes” as a result of that meeting. “We’re going to work the plan that we have. If it’s not on fire when we get there, we treat it the same as any other spill,” he said. But other communities have learned with tragic consequences that Bakken Shale oil catches fire and explodes more than other types of crude. Why?

Cuomo’s executive order refers to it as “inherently more volatile than traditional crude.” Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.), in a news conference in Syracuse after the Lac Megantic disaster, called it a “ticking time bomb.” The federal government stepped up testing and classification requirements for Bakken crude in February, calling the shipments “an imminent hazard to public health, safety, and the environment.” The Wall Street Journal describes Bakken crude as “a mixture of oil, ethane, propane and other gaseous liquids. . . commingled far more than in conventional crude.” According to one analyst quoted in the Journal, “You can put it in your gas tank and run it.” Last month, the Journal published a report analyzing the volatility of types of oil that concluded the North Dakota oil was nearly three times as likely to ignite than other types of oil. The Journal compared the Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) of Bakken oil with that of other oils. RVP is a widely used measurement of how quickly a liquid fuel evaporates and emits gases. The Journal’s analysis of North Dakota oil pegged its RVP

New York

at 8.56, compared to 3.33 for Louisiana Light Sweet oil. (Cabinda oil from Angola was the least volatile at 2.66.) The people of Lac Megantic, a tourist village of 6,000 near the Canadian border with Maine, don’t need an algorithm to convince them that Bakken Shale oil is volatile. After midnight on July 6, 2013, a train with 74 cars of Bakken oil slipped its brakes and rolled into the town. When the train skipped the tracks, five cars exploded, and a river of flaming oil flooded the village, creating a fireball visible from space and setting half the downtown area ablaze. Forty-seven people died in the fire. Reports of that catastrophe, in a village the size of Solvay, read like a modern Dante’s inferno. One radio report told of townspeople trying to outrun a “tsunami of fire.” Tens of thousands of barrels of oil leaked or burned, and the flaming oil poured into storm sewers, came out of manholes and forced its way into the basements of homes. It took days before rescuers could enter the downtown area and recover the bodies of the dead. The tragedy at Lac Megantic was voted the News Story of the Year by the syracusenewtimes.com | 04.02.14 - 04.09.14

Rail Shipments - “A Virtual Pipeline” The Bakken oil passing through Central New York is just one element in an extensive shift in the production and distribution of petroleum products that is taking place nationally and globally with lightning speed. Since the wide-scale deployment of high-volume horizontal hydrofracking in the past decade, the United States has moved from a position of worried consumer of other nations’ oil and gas toward being a net exporter. The recent crisis on the Crimean peninsula illustrated the possibilities of the United States using its power in world energy markets to influence global events. Each new development in the energy sector — hydrofracking gas in the Marcellus shale, building the Keystone XL pipeline to move Canadian tar sands oil, shipping Bakken oil by rail — renews the debate on climate change, renewable energy sources and the safety of transporting petroleum products over long distances. Most of the attention has been focused on the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, which would transport tar sands oil from Alberta, Canada, to the U.S. Gulf Coast for refining and export. Meanwhile, says Travis Proulx, of Environmental Advocates of NY, “the oil industry is trying to turn our rail infrastructure into their global export facility.” Whether or not Keystone XL is approved, he suggests, the oil industry is “trying to set up infrastructure to transport Canadian tar sands oil through New York state.” His organization has gone beyond calls for greater rail safety and would like to see a moratorium on all oil shipments through the state. Ironically, it is the absence of a pipeline from North Dakota to the East Coast that has caused the dramatic increase in rail shipments of oil over the past five years. Oil companies prefer pipelines over railroads, which can cost as much as three times per unit shipped. Don Siegel, the chair of the department of earth sciences and geology at Syracuse University, argues that pipelines not only cost less, but are much safer. “Since there is no pipeline,” writes Siegel in an email, “we are now moving volatile oil from the Bakken by train. If the oil moved in a pipeline, there would be minimal risk of explosion because leaks don’t explode, they

just spill oil on the ground. The other risks with oil spills from pipelines are local and can be cleaned up quickly enough — as they have been in the past. A pipeline leak with modern technology will be detected quickly and stopped, and then the oil is scooped up and the groundwater, if contaminated, cleaned up in a relatively short time frame. The angst over the Keystone pipeline is scientifically unfounded, if certainly provocative.” However the Bakken oil moves east, its destination is Albany. A Massachusetts company, Global Partners LP, has petitioned to build an oil processing facility at the Port of Albany that would prep the crude for transfer to the barges that carry the oil down the Hudson and ultimately to refineries in New Jersey, Delaware and New Brunswick. Last year, the company signed an agreement with Phillips 66 to provide 91 million barrels to Phillips 66’s refinery in Bayway, N.J., all of it to be shipped through Albany. That contract alone would mean that 50,000 barrels per day of Bakken crude will pass through Albany, and the only way it can get there is by rail. Global Partners refers to the rail shipment as a “virtual pipeline.” Global’s expansion in Albany has raised alarms among New York environmentalists. Albany County Executive Dan McCoy recently issued an executive order imposing a moratorium on the company’s plans for the oil processing facility, and the state’s Department of Environmental Conservation extended the period for public comment on the project until June 2. McCoy’s order, which might not be legally binding, is the kind of action Proulx and other environmental activists say more local officials need to take. Proulx contends that all levels of government have their role. “We need bold leadership. Fracked oil cannot be transported safely,” Proulx says. “It’s far more dangerous from a public safety and environmental perspective. If there was a shipping accident along the Hudson, it would be an unparalleled disaster.” “We’re pushing the government to see who has the power to do that. County executives should work with their legal teams to see what they can do,” Proulx says. SNT

Canadian Press. Mann, the railroad safety expert, traveled to Lac Megantic to investigate the disaster. “What happened in Canada was a bit unusual,” he said. “The underlying accident could have been prevented if adequate brakes had been applied (when the train was left parked unattended overnight). There was only one crew member on the train, and he didn’t properly secure the train. There was an incline, and it rolled, and the result was a catastrophe.” Could it happen here? Single-person train crews do not operate along the Buffalo-Albany corridor, but railroad union officials have for years warned that they are coming. Technology and cost-cutting measures have reduced crews from five persons a generation ago to three in the 1980s to two in the 1990s. Mann says the main danger comes not from the nature of Bakken oil but because it is being carried in unsafe train cars. “They are transporting this crude in cars designed for inert crude oil,” he said. “Instead, they need to use cars more suited to liquified natural gas.” He said the federal agency charged with railroad and pipeline safety, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, will soon promulgate regulations to mandate improved safety features on cars transporting volatile oil. The typical cars in use, known as DOT Type 111 tankers, would have to be retrofitted with shelf plates and reinforced shells, among other features, or be replaced. “The rail industry is on board to buy better-equipped cars,” Mann said.

The Burlington Northern Santa Fe, the largest shipper of Bakken crude, has ordered 5,000 upgraded DOT Type 111 cars. The American Association of Railroads, a private industry group, has urged its member companies to adopt the more stringent standards. CSX, through a spokesperson, endorsed this call. In a statement sent via email by Robert Sullivan of CSX, the railroad said that “CSX supports strengthened tank car standards, as well as the (U.S. Department of Transportation’s) heightened vigilance and attention to the proper labeling of oil moving in tank cars.” The problem, says Mann, is that replacing a fleet of 270,000 Type 111 rail cars will take up to 10 years under the best of circumstances. And until 100 percent of the cars are safe, no shipment is safe. “If you have a 100-car train and five are defective, you’re still going to have a catastrophe,” Mann said. Meanwhile, the railroad association released a statement Feb. 21 committing the railroads to safety measures including increased inspections, slower speeds in urban areas, improved braking and monitoring and greater assistance with emergency planning, all for areas traversed by oil trains carrying more than 20 cars of crude, which would presumably include Syracuse. The association also pledged $5 million to develop a curriculum for handling crude oil disasters such as leaks and fires. It estimates it will be able to train 1,500 first responders nationwide by the end of this year. When asked if they have applied for the training funds, county officials did not reply. SNT

Syracuse Opera’s Porgy and Bess brings a black cast and range of musical styles to the Mulroy Civic Center. Writer Jessica Novak interviews one of the stars, Laquita Mitchell, and the director, Hope Clarke.

First performed in 1935, it took until 1976 for Porgy and Bess to be accepted as a legitimate opera, when the Houston Grand Opera mounted a critically acclaimed production. And it wasn’t until nine years later that New York City’s Metropolitan Opera first performed the work. Fast-forward to 2014 and the piece is still one of the most popular, well known and powerful in opera. Syracuse Opera will present Porgy and Bess, featuring music by George Gershwin, libretto by DuBose Heyward and lyrics by Heyward and Ira Gershwin, on Sunday, April 6, 2 p.m., at the Mulroy Civic Center’s Crouse-Hinds Concert Theater. It will conclude the 2013-2014 season. “When I think about the piece, I think about the storyline as well as the music Gershwin so beautifully put together,” says Laquita Mitchell, who will perform as Bess. “When you think about the piece as a whole, structurally, how many other operas can you name that have so many classic hits? And orchestrally speaking, it has jazz, folk, spirituals all within the piece. It touches me to know that this man, (George) Gershwin, would go hear the spirituals, started by African-Americans, and was able to hear the texture of this art form and turn it into the piece you’ll hear. It’s amazing.”

There are many ways that Porgy and Bess stands apart from other operas. It’s written in English, making it more accessible for American audiences, especially with recognizable tunes like the popular “Summertime.” The show hits on very human storylines, trading extreme drama for real-life hardship. It also features a cast of African-American performers, which was daring in the 1930s and remains a unique characteristic today. “It was the first opera that I could see, myself as an African American, in any of the women’s roles within the piece,” Mitchell says. “That’s very rare. If I look at The Marriage of Figaro or La Boheme, this is a human piece. It’s not the best in terms of how people are hired or not, but I feel like the piece resonates musically within our culture. It resonates musically with who we are.” Mitchell grew up in New York City, surrounded by music and art, but unaware of opera until she was 14. “It changed things for me,” she says. “I knew there were other

options.” She participated in opera performances throughout undergrad and graduate school before being accepted into the Houston Grand Opera. She topped the Belvedere Competition in Vienna, Austria, in 2003, becoming the first African-American to win and the first American to do so in 25 years. “It’s like the stock exchange of opera,” she explains. “Singers from all over the world attend.” Mitchell went on to win the Met National Council auditions in 2004. Since then she has traveled the world performing various roles, including the part of Clara in Porgy and Bess. “I’ve performed as Clara more than Bess,” she explains. “And singing the role of Clara is definitely an important thing. (“Summertime”) is the most famous aria in history, so to move up to Bess—it carried a lot of weight.” Mitchell also notes her excitement to work alongside Gordon Hawkins as Porgy. “He’s the first Porgy I ever saw,” she says, “and now I get to sing with him.” SNT

going on at that time. For them, it was very hard times. They did the best they could with what they had and it kind of teaches us all a lesson. They persevered regardless of what they didn’t have, whether it be jobs or education. But they were still a very close, wonderful community. I also think the score is just incredible. Gershwin did a magnificent job. It’s worth having Porgy and Bess as one of our major operas. It’s always on tour somewhere. It made the Gershwins quite rich.

Hope Clarke has an impressive resume, one that has seen her act, dance, sing, choreograph and direct around the world. She’ll bring her expertise to the Mulroy Civic Center’s Crouse-Hinds Concert Theater for Syracuse Opera’s Porgy and Bess on Sunday, April 6. Clarke chatted with the Syracuse New Times about her thoughts on the much-loved opera.

How many times have you worked on Porgy and Bess? I think six or seven. It’s gonna be quite an experience. I’ve done it quite a lot so I’m familiar with the opera. We’re not doing the fully realized opera, we’re doing the concert-staged version.

How did you transition into choreography and directing?

Tell me how you combine voice and movement through dance. It connects through the story. Whatever they are singing about, you interpret Clarke through movement. It isn’t something where you go to see a concert and they’re just dancing. This tells a story. It continues on with the opera. It’s not, OK, stop and dance. Dance is a part of the story.

I was a dancer and then became an actress. And when I first went into choreography, I went into directing. Directing happened, I guess, in the 1980s. It was just something that I was asked to do. People trusted me.

Why is Porgy and Bess an important opera?

Kitchen Theater’s venue takes a break from Lungs next week for the Simon Gray tragicomedy Quartermaine’s Terms on TAKE Monday, April 7, and Tuesday, April 8, 7:30 p.m. The free production from Ithaca’s Homecoming Players features director Greg Bostwick guiding a cast that includes Erica Steinhagen.

ust words and movement. According to Lungs playwright Duncan Macmillan’s wishes, “No scenery, no props, and no mime.” The two performers are clothed in this production at Ithaca’s Kitchen Theatre Company (running through April 13), and Lisa Boquist is credited with providing costumes, but both look as though they wore just anything to attend a rehearsal. Other than that, nothing: just a black, raised rectangle with lines marking off 12 quadrants and two dozen transparent bulbs high up in the flies. The cryptically named M (Jesse Bush) and W (Anne Troup) pull us into their love life and obsessions for about 90 minutes, just in the ways they talk and how their bodies express the unspoken. And, boy, do they move. If you cupped your hands over your ears and just watched the thousand different ways their bodies relate to each other, you’d know what is happening. Lungs also substantially resembles Mike Bartlett’s Cock, seen at Kitchen last month. Once again, on a completely bare stage we saw a man named M and a woman named W, but there were also two other characters. Cock delivered bitter, often profane conflict, one of several reasons it is sometimes titled Cockfight. Lungs, which might be classed as a dark romance, is sometimes sweeter and often laugh-out-loud hilarious. Both Bartlett and Macmillan are part of a cutting-edge movement in Britain known as the Apathists, favoring stripped-down but intense action. There’s nothing quite like them in the United States, but the fashionable

04.02.14 - 04.09.14 | syracusenewtimes.com

young playwright Annie Baker (Circle Mirror Transformation) is a kindred spirit. The first subject concerns parenthood. Not that W is pregnant, but it’s something that could happen. W is against it: “You might as well have punched me in the face and asked me to do a math problem.” Not because of what it would do to her figure or the labor pains, but all the ecological implications. Aren’t there 7 billion people already? Worse is the carbon footprint, with all those diapers in landfills. Babies would require 10,000 tons of diapers, equal to the weight of a Parisian landmark. “I don’t want to give birth to the Eiffel Tower,” she wails. The political is here, however, a metaphor for the personal, as first signaled in the title. Lungs are a favorite body part for ecologists because they are so vulnerable to all the garbage the industrial world has dumped into the atmosphere. The cry “Let me breathe” is shorthand for “Let me live.” Crowding is equally threatening

as pollution. Challenges to space and to self affect breathing. Keeping your lungs healthy and functioning is an absolute. M and W do not stand on equal footing. They may not be married but somehow have acquired a mortgage. She may be striving in the higher reaches of academia, but M works in a music store and is a parttime musician. “Plenty of musicians have children,” he says defensively. She retorts, “Plenty of successful musicians have children,” a verbal bludgeon to remind him she does not think they are ready. W does more of the talking, and her words often come a mile-a-minute. M insists that he deeply loves her. They dance together, and we understand that a fully clothed brief embrace signifies coitus. But her rages, her self-involvement and outright narcissism often put her just inside the line of M’s continuing to care for her. “I just need you to hold me,” she barks late in the play, trembling with anxious unhappiness. As M obediently moves forward to embrace her she demurs, “But not right now.” Director Michele Minnick, brought up from Baltimore, is a former student of Kitchen artistic director Rachel Lampert, herself a former choreographer. Any director with academic training gives attention to expressive stage movement, but Minnick has made it the focus of her career. She has worked with something called the Rasaboxes approach to train actors in highly physical stage works, such as Macmillan’s Lungs. Jesse Bush, active at both Kitchen and the Hangar Theater, where he is associate artistic director, is something of a star in Ithaca. Audiences are used to his coming up with the unexpected, like an expert Afrikaans accent in J.T. Rogers’ The Overwhelming or singing of cannibalism in Sweeney Todd. For the intensity of his Lungs portrayal he has never been asked to deliver more. Anne Troup, up from Manhattan, brings golden national credits. Starting with W’s sometimes spiky dialogue, she has to give us hundreds of emotional tones in the character’s capricious, even mercurial evolution over a decade. More than a speaker, she is a tormented dancer. SNT

MAY THE FAUST BE WITH YOU

M REVIEW

any critics cite Mikhail Bulgakov’s surreal, anti-Stalinist satire The Master & Margarita as one of the top 100 novels of the 20th century. As tweaking the regime was then a hanging offense, Bulgakov (18911940) had to work on it furtively, and the work was thought lost until it was widely published in 1967. Although only 384 pages in the Vintage paperback and a fairly easy read, Master is so filled with allusion it could easily occupy an undergraduate literature class for two weeks. Not only does it draw deeply from European culture, especially the Faust legend, but several characters in the story were written to skewer specific Soviet personages. Not to worry. A new stage adaptation by Le Moyne College’s Matt Chiorini, together with students Jessie Gherardi and Nastasia White, seizes on the abundant good theatrical fun Bulgakov offers. Le Moyne’s Boot and Buskin Theatre Group presents The Master & Margarita through Saturday, April 5. This is not the first adaptation. Program notes remind us that there have been at least 13 live action and animated movies, television series and graphic novels. This one is set apart by being self-contained and fairly short (two hours and 20 minutes with intermission) and set in a nether-present. Many men still wear fedoras, but language is more up-to-date. A stuffed-shirt skeptic named Berlioz (Alex LeBlond) dismisses the Jesus of the Gospels as a “post-modern, deconstructed metaphor.” When there is a complaint about lax security, one

character sneers that too many people are so naïve as to use “1-2-3-4” as a PIN number. The three story lines jump around centuries in time and space but move quickly and are easy to follow. Adapter Chiorini prudently handed over the direction to veteran Leslie Noble, who has worked closely with ace scenic designer Karel Blakely. Not only do substantial-looking sets fly about in a trice, but the canopied bed, where one character suffers nightmares, turns into an open channel for infernal creatures to pour onto the stage. Two strands begin in a Moscow of the present, a grim city of doubt and cynicism. Two writers struggle to be heard: Ivan the homeless poet (Peter Medici), who risks being declared mad, and a novelist called the Master (Drew Gripe), clearly a stand-in for Mikhail Bulgakov.

His lover Margarita (Brittany Fayle) is already married to somebody else, but she returns his love and gladly serves as his muse. She disappears for a while but lives up to her double billing in the second act. No mere beauty, Fayle’s muse delivers some of the most compelling emotional heavy lifting. A second force challenges the pedestrian rationalism of unexcitable Muscovites. It’s smirking, self-confident Professor Woland (Matt Chiorini), who brings along a magic show with an entourage. Defying reason, he can predict the future. When he declares that the self-important popinjay Berlioz will soon be decapitated, his head indeed does not rest on his shoulders very long. Eventually, without changing costume, Woland is revealed to be the Devil. In that persona, paradoxically, he grumbles, “Evil isn’t sexy any more.” “Sexy” is not a bad term for the folks traveling with Woland. They are the snarling, somewhat goth Hella the vampire (Lexi Bedore); rakish, bare-midriffed Azazello the Pirate (Marco Tutino); and most surprising of all, Behemoth-the-Cat (Travis Milliman), who loves vodka and plays chess. Milliman, the largest player we see, is superbly outfitted by costumer Lindsey Quay Sikes with a wide red tail and six-inch black nails. All of the Devil’s people have an advantage on stage, and Milliman makes the most of it. The third strand is set in biblical times, in which Pontius Pilate (Vincent Randazzo), the Roman governor, equivocates and vacillates over the execution of a possibly treasonous holy man named Yeshua (Kahlil Russel Starks). Pilate and Yeshua are the subtlest and most intense roles in a flashy show, and director Noble guides the student players well here. Evil upon evil exudes from Chiorini’s dual role as the magic showman and the sulfurous deity. With all his side teeth showing in a threatening smile, he’s no mere taunter like Mr. Applegate in Damn Yankees. This one could have overcome Daniel Webster in the courtroom. The founder of Methodism, John Wesley, said the Devil had all the best songs. He has the best jokes, too. SNT

BRECHT AND EFFECT

B REVIEW

ertolt Brecht’s The Good Woman of Setzuan, one of the 200 most celebrated stage plays of the 20th century, is being produced the second time in two decades by the Syracuse University Drama Department. Only this time it is not on the Storch Theater stage, the usual venue, but is instead presented upstairs in the Loft Theater, a black box. The smaller space, which puts the action in the faces of people in the front row, evokes the kind of stages Brecht had to use while developing his influential theatrical aesthetic back in Berlin during the Weimar Republic. Good Woman is a highly characteristic work, even if it was completed in Los Angeles in 1943 while the playwright was avoiding the Nazis. Having fewer seats available is also a tacit admission that this production is intended for audiences who admire Brecht and know what they’re getting into. No other modern playwright tried so hard to reach the groundlings as Brecht did. He found the heavy bourgeois realism of the preceding generation (Henrik Ibsen, David Belasco) to be both dishonest and boring. What we see here is the authentic playwright, with masks, cartoon noises, exaggerated speech, abrupt transitions, musical interruptions and some of the affect of slapstick. Director Felix Ivanov, a graduate of Moscow’s Schukin Theater School, assures that Brecht’s celebrated “alienation effect” will be heeded here. We always know that what we are seeing is an artifice, and

04.02.14 - 04.09.14 | syracusenewtimes.com

that we should not indulge sticky emotions and remain detached from characters, even if one of them is indeed a “good woman.” Ivanov is also a movement specialist who has choreographed countless fight scenes and duels in local productions over the past few years. Sure enough, in Good Woman characters are defined as much by body set and gait as they are by dialogue and costume. Action begins when three gods (Adam Segrave, Brian Sandstrom and Sam Odell), western-looking, barefoot dudes wearing long robes, announce to villagers that they are looking for a truly good person to reward. A water seller named Wong (Craig Kober) leads them to Shen Te (Jesse Roth), a sweet-faced prostitute who appears no longer to be plying her trade. She asks the gods how she can retain her goodness in life and still makes ends meet. They have no answer but offer

her some money. Shen Te uses it to buy a tobacco shop from crabby Mrs. Shin (Erin Walsh), an ungrateful seller who asks for rice and money to help her entire family. A carpenter (Thomas Countz) also demands a huge back payment for previous work. The shop becomes so raucous it invites the attention of the police (Javier Prusky). What is a good woman to do? Help arrives in the person of a “cousin” named Shui Ta. It’s Shen Te with an Asian-appearing, mustachioed half-mask, leaving her mouth unimpeded to speak. The imposture is as clear to us as is the cross-dressing in Shakespeare comedies, but it does the trick for the other characters. Shui Ta is an efficient businessman who can save the tobacco shop, which does not make him “good” in the eyes of the gods, nor the townies. With the mask off, however, Shen Te regains her femininity and returns to a life of trying to do good. Prime in her efforts is to save an unemployed young pilot, Yang Sun (Andrew Garrett), so despondent that he wants to hang himself. Worse, Shen Te learns that Yang Sun would really like to take over a position at the airfield in Peking, if only he could come up with a substantial payment. Shen Te would deliver, even at the price of leaving him, and considers marrying instead the dandified barber Shu Fu (Seth Landau). At this inopportune moment Shen Te must announce that she is pregnant. Events lead to the courtroom, where Shen Te is to be judged on how good she has been. In Brecht’s aesthetic, many characters are portrayed as stylized caricatures, which does not invite audiences to swoon. Several students are distinctly polished at this, notably Erin Walsh as Mrs. Shin, Seth Landau as Shu Fu the barber, and Craig Kober as Wong the water seller. In the two most naturalistic roles, both Andrew Garrett’s Yang Sun and Jesse Roth’s Shen Te are magnetic and compelling. Maybe Brecht did not want us to like them, but we do.SNT

FROM THE VAULT: MARK TIFFAULT Drummer Mark Tiffault has a band record that would make any musician jealous. He’s played with some of the best groups in Syracuse music history: The Kingsnakes, Built for Comfort, Little Georgie and the Shuffling Hungarians and, today, Los Blancos and the Barking Langers. He’s entertained fans for years, yet drawn no attention to himself, always emphasizing the importance of staying out of the way of others musically, allowing the song to breathe. And he’s not a drummer that needs a Neil Peart-approved kit: He can do it all with a snare, hi-hat and brushes, as he did on Austin Jimmy Murphy’s CD A History of Blues. Tiffault is also a songwriter, interpreting music by the beat, but writing it with full melodies in his mind. Some of these ingredients came to fruition on Zinc’s Palace, his all-original album from 2004. The CD is a romp through Tiffault’s mind, plump with clever lyrical twists over seriously accomplished chops. The best in the business—including T.A. James, Carey Bell, Paul “Big Daddy” LaRonde, Tom Townsley, Lee Tiffault, Skip Murphy, Cris “The Shredder” Drozd, John Kane, Dave Liddy and Mark Nanni—dance through the disc, one lively with color and humor. Tiffault would sound out the melodies to his “very simpatico” musical other half at the time, James, to set the basis of the tunes before the rest solidified. “With this record, I was waking up in the middle of the night to write stuff down,” Tiffault says. “It (one song) gives you an idea for another one. It was pretty wacky. I never actually had that kind of activity in that concentrated form before.” Tiffault says that the creative spark came from unemployment after the Shuffling Hungarians called it quits. “It was a planned end, but I usually wait until the last second to think about anything like that, so suddenly, it’s over,” he says. “I was struggling to think of what I was going to do, and it just started happening. Who knows?” But that end and the album’s beginning

came in 2000, four years before it would eventually be released. “It’s not Sgt. Pepper’s,” he assures. “We were just gone a lot and Steve (Lloyd)’s studio was weather sensitive in the summer.” The son of Leighton “Sox” Tiffault grew up in a musical household, one that was honored with a Syracuse Area Music Award (Sammy) Hall of Fame recognition this year. But he never had a doubt about his choice of musical instrument. “I wanted to play drums as long as I can remember,” he says. After high school, he attended SUNY Alfred (after all, it was the time of the draft), but didn’t stay long as a business major. After dropping out, he held several jobs, but drumming remained his life goal. “I learned by hearing someone better than me play,” he says. “I progressed a certain amount and then I got lazy. One night I was walking into a gig and the guy who was setting up my kit in those days was also a drummer and he was kicking my ass. I mean, kicking my ass. That was a wake-up right there.” Tiffault went on to play with Sweet Breeze, Cross Creek, the Party Nuts and eventually the Kingsnakes, which led to projects from the 1980s onward with musicmakers including Kim Lembo, Duffy Kane, Ron Spencer, Corn-Bred and two-time Grammy-winner Jose Alvarez. Most recently, he’s been at More Sound Studio with Los Blancos, this time contributing a song himself. “My stuff didn’t fit into the repertoire we were doing,” Tiffault says of the band’s pre-existing song list when he joined in 2004. “I had a lot to learn, so that’s what I did. I learned their stuff. But we’re doing one song (of mine) on the new Blancos album. I’m excited about it.” For information on where to catch Tiffault live, visit casablancos. com.

Then he was with Little Georgie and the Shuffling Hungarians, the best band the city has ever seen. And now he is with Los Blancos, the city’s best band. So if you’re looking for a consistent thread to all of the city’s best bands, it isn’t the guitar player or the bass or the harp, keyboard players or the vocalist. It’s the drummer, Mark Tiffault.

“Mark (Tiffault) and Paul (LaRonde) were an absolutely critical component to this process (the song “Gutbucket”), because they knew all this stuff as well or better than me. They had the ability to pull it off as a rhythm section, being alternately sophisticated and raw, with a powerful intellectual knowledge of music combined with being fearlessly boneheaded in deployment of the knowledge. Loose and tight as a gnat’s ass all at the same time. “Playing with Mark literally saved my life, and my association with him has made up some of the most musically satisfying and rewarding professional experiences I’ve ever had. He allowed me to express my musical self, and was the main facilitator in translating ideas and concepts into a true reality. He made that happen. He was the heart and soul of the Hungarians, and I owe him a personal debt of eternal gratitude that I will never be able to fully repay.”

FIENNES, REVOLORI MAKE FUNNY AS ODD PARTNERS Once upon a time, there was a majestic hotel steeped in European tradition ... The Grand Budapest Hotel starts with a monument to the writer of this tale. A woman hangs her trinket on a statue along with many others, to signify her affection. Then she opens his book. And off the packed Saturday night theater at Destiny USA took into the fanciful world of Gustave H, concierge supreme, and Zero Moustafa, lobby boy loyal to the core. Directed by Wes Anderson, written by Anderson and inspired by the words of Stephan Zweig, this rambling comedy surfs centuries, ages and de-ages characters and presents enough twists and turns to make the winding downhill skiing and luge escape scene seem tame. It’s quirky. And Ralph Fiennes, as Gustave, and newcomer Tony Revolori, as Zero, are perfect as odd fellows stuck together by work and kept together by an escapade so large it took 30 famous Hollywood cameos to finish the job. Fiennes is gumby-faced as the wrongly accused concierge dealing with prison, escape and absolute antics to prove he did not murder the old woman who’d left him a priceless painting. Of course, that he did steal. Fiennes proves to be a perfect leader and foil all in one, as Anderson has drawn this man in the midst of an outbreak of a World War that will change this European paradise forever. Revolori, meanwhile, is a master of deadpan, big eyes alight in an inner knowledge that his love for birthmarked baker Agatha (played by Saoirse Ronan, brightly) is good, right and will prevail over anything Gustave can throw in their path. “Don’t flirt with her,” the lobby boy warns with a wagged finger at the notorious lover of many people and things. The plot is funny, and the actors are humorous, a mix of slapstick and serious wordplay.

Bill Murray’s on-screen turn as a member of the Crossed Keys is rather irascible, another in a long line of good and eccentric choices by the wily Anderson. The capacity crowd cheered at the end. They had gotten the sly and silly that had lured them there. SNT

IN OTHER NEWS:

Tony Revolori (second from left), and Tilda Swinton (second from right), Ralph Fiennes (right) and other cast members of The Grand Budapest Hotel.

It’s been ages between supposed local sightings of Grand Budapest Hotel co-star Adrien Brody. Around 2007 the Academy Award-winning actor of The Pianist purchased the Stone Barn Castle in Cleveland, once a popular tourist attraction but now closed to the public. Maybe he’ll surface this summer playing Skee-Ball in Sylvan Beach.

Movies co-directed by co-star Bill Murray: Quick Change (1990) with Howard Franklin

The 1925 silent film Ben Hur: A Tale of the Christ will be shown Sunday, April 6, at 2:30 p.m. at the Empire Theatre in the Art and Home Center at the New York State Fairgrounds. The film will be presented the way it would have been 90 years ago: accompanied by live music from the 1925 Wurlitzer organ originally installed in RKO’s Keith’s theater, in Syracuse. It will be played by Scott Poppiano. It stars Ramón Novarro and Francis X. Bushman. Perhaps more impressive today than the leads of the film is the roster of extras during the chariot race: a couple of Barrymores, John and Lionel; Joan Crawford; Marion Davies; Douglas Fairbanks; John Gilbert; a couple of Gishes, Dorothy and Lillian; Samuel Goldwyn; Harold Lloyd; and Mary Pickford. It cost $3.9 million to make, the most of any film in the silent era. It grossed $9 million, but it was a net loss for the MGM studio. A re-release earned enough money to push it into the black. SNT

A not-so-classic thriller The Palace Theatre will screen the film Devil’s Due Monday, April 21, at 9 p.m. at the theater, 2384 James St., Admission is free. Beer and wine will be available. The film, which came out early this year, mirrors the plot line of Rosemary’s Baby, a classic. After a mysterious, lost night on their honeymoon, a newlywed couple find themselves dealing with an earlier-than-planned pregnancy. While recording everything for posterity, the husband begins to notice odd behavior in his wife that they initially write off to nerves, but, as the months pass, it becomes evident that the dark changes to her body and mind have a much more sinister origin. Fair warning: It stands with an 18 percent rating at Rotten Tomatoes. SNT

ngela Trapasso calls herself a “Craiglist maniac.” She estimates that nearly 75 percent of the furniture and furnishings in her Franklin Square apartment is refurbished. “I like the feeling of taking something nobody wanted and making it your own,’’ she said. “I like unique eclectic pieces.” A chair she and Cory Brooks found on Craigslist for $90 had faded wood and upholstery Trapasso described as “orange sweatering fabric.” They sanded, stripped and refinished the wood, and — for the first time — upholstered the cushions. Traspasso said she likes to be surrounded by a lot of color and a lot of different patterns. Traspasso, director of brand strategy for Terakeet Corp., and Brooks, a counselor at Solvay Middle School, moved to the apartment at Franklin View Terrace, 210 W. Division St., from Armory Square, where they lived above the Clinton Street pub. Moving was a sign of growing up, they said jokingly. When you’re in your 20s, Armory Square is the place to live, they said. But when you’re in your 30s, quieter Franklin Square is more appealing. “We’re downtown people,’’ Brooks said. “We

like being really close to everything,’’ including the festivals in Clinton Square. Brooks said he ate three meals a day at Taste of Syracuse. The Armory Square apartment was also upstairs from Bittersweet Wine Bar and Desserts — dangerously close, they said. A late-night craving could be satisfied by a phone call order and a walk downstairs. “Everybody’s all dressed up, and we go in in our pajamas,’’ Brooks said. They couple – and their 3-year-old dog, Benny – moved into the two-bedroom, two bath apartment in December. The 1,100-square-foot apartment rents for $1,250, plus utilities and a pet deposit. “It’s the best deal in town,” Traspasso said. Hanging from above the kitchen counter is a Christmas wreath purchased at the CNY Regional Market. “I don’t let go of Christmas for months,” Trapasso said. “Until I see grass growing, that stuff

FARMER TAKES TIME TO REFRESH BUSINESS

I

f you’re a regular on Saturdays at the Central New York Regional Market, in Syracuse, you might have wondered: Where is the young woman who sells butterhead lettuce and whole tilapia?

Late in the fall, Jamie O’Hern, 27, took a pause to refresh her aquaponic produce business, Refresh Farms. O’Hern founded Refresh in 2011 and operated it out of a small building in East Syracuse for a couple years. In the fall, she partnered with John Freightenburgh — owner of Ironwood, in Manlius — to build a new aquaponic farm in a greenhouse at 604 E. Seneca St., up the street from the wood-fired pizza restaurant. O’Hern also works as a server at the restaurant. They got the new site up and running in November, but decided to suspend growing because of the unusually cold weather and the impracticality and high cost of heating the building in the winter. O’Hern has planted seeds and says the growing system should be back up and running in a few weeks. “My first priority will be to grow lettuces and herbs for Ironwood,’’ O’Hern says, “and then we’ll expand distribution from there.’’ For those who aren’t familiar with it, aquaponics is a sustainable system of food production. It combines aquaculture (raising fish in tanks) with hydroponics (growing plants in water) in an interactive indoor environment. The wastewater from the fish tanks is used to fertilize the plants, and the plants, in turn, keep the water clean. The purified water is circulated back to the fish. Grow beds are stacked in

tiered systems, resembling bunk beds, to maximize space and growing capacity. The advantages of aquaponics growing are many, O’Hern says. It uses considerably less energy and less water than traditional agriculture and allows people to grow food in cities and other places where climate and conditions aren’t favorable. The produce and fish are fresh, flavorful and pesticide-, herbicide- and hormone-free. Even if it’s cold and snowing, you can enjoy a fresh, local salad. That hasn’t been the case over winter but come spring, O’Hern will resume production of butterhead lettuce, micro-greens, red and green romaine lettuce, bok choy and herbs, including sorrel and several varieties of basil. Until she gets back to the Regional Market, she notes that Main Street Farms, of Homer and Cortland, is there most Saturdays with greens and tilapia. Aquaponic produce is usually sold with the roots and rootball attached, which surprises customers, at first. With the roots on, O’Hern says, aquaponic lettuce can last up to two weeks in the refrigerator. Tilapia is sold when it reaches maturity, and usually ranges in size from 1.5 to 3 pounds. O’Hern got her introduction to aquaponics at Sunset Hydroponics and Home Brewing, on Erie Boulevard East, in DeWitt, where she worked as

a manager. She grew tomatoes, basil and lettuce in the basement of her family’s house in Syracuse before moving to the small space in East Syracuse. In Manlius, Refresh will offer koi for stocking landscaping ponds. O’Hern plans to add freshwater crayfish to the growing tanks and is looking forward to trying new varieties of lettuces and herbs and experimenting with other vegetables. The property, which is just less than four acres, offers the possibility of traditional soil farming, as well. Freightenburgh hopes to use one of the buildings on the property for catering and private parties, O’Hern says. There also has been talk of hosting a farmers market, partnering with other producers/ distributors for a CSA (community-supported agriculture) share program and working with other restaurants, O’Hern says. “We’re exploring a lot of different options to figure out what works best,’’ O’Hern says. “We’re really excited and can’t wait to see what develops.’’ For information about Refresh Farms, visit the Refresh Facebook page or email refreshfarms@ gmail.com.

Nailed It

Photographs courtesy of Jami Procopio, Nail Bang unless noted

For some, nails are for biting. For others, such as Jami Procopio, fingernails are a canvas. Procopio, of Nail Bang, works out of her Solvay home but will soon open her own salon in the 1400 block of West Genesee Street. Procopio’s nail art can take two to three hours to create. She has a degree in cosmetology, but taught herself how to sculpt the acrylic nails after a trip to California, where she met a celebrity nail artist whose “nails were off the hook,” she said. The nails aren’t for everyone. The decorated nails are “my only accessory,” said Jane Johnson, of Syracuse, a client of Procopio. “I rarely wear jewelry.” SNT

IT’S TIME TO PREP FOR BETTER WEATHER. REALLY.

Ah, the roads of spring and summer. Any day now, those potholes will get fixed, and it’s smooth sailing, right? Not so fast, Speed Racer. Your car’s still suffering from winter. Here’s what you can do to make up to your four-wheeled friend after a winter of abuse: Remember that time you got stuck behind a plow on I-690? Your car does, too. All that flying sand and salt can do a number on the windshield. You’ll need a pro for the heavy damage, but sometimes you can fix those nicks and cracks yourself. A DIY repair kit costs less than $20.

Check the battery for corrosion, and clean it periodically. Yes, you can even use baking soda or cola in a pinch. We’d prefer you didn’t electrocute yourself, so please get detailed instructions before going on a cleaning spree. Plan to drive through the night to get to your spring break destination? Better make sure salt and road debris haven’t fogged up your headlight lenses. You can get it done by a pro, or buy a kit to clean and polish the lenses yourself for about $15. SNT

Not all gestures involve road rage. Read on. Drivers have been making certain gestures from the front seat for decades, but Microsoft has an idea for making arm and finger motions actually useful inside the car. The company, which brought gesture controls to the living room via its Kinect sensor for Xbox 360, is now thinking about bringing them to the car via smartphones. A patent application from three Microsoft researchers outlines a system for interacting with a vehicle’s information and entertainment system using a variety of gestures, such as a finger to the lips for turning down the

audio volume, a thumbs-up to approve an action, or a pinch of the chin — a “quizzical pose,” as the filing puts it — to conduct an Internet search. Another example: The user “can make a movement that mimics placing a phone near an ear” to instruct the mobile device to place a call. The system would work via a mobile device (such as a smartphone) mounted on the dashboard, using the device’s built-in camera to capture the scene inside the vehicle and interpret the gestures. — Todd Bishop, GeekWire

PSYCHIC FAIR Center for Spiritual Awareness Church

ARIES (March 21-April 19) In his novel The Unbearable Lightness of Being, Milan Kundera says that the brain has “a special area which we might call poetic memory and which records everything that charms or touches us, that makes our lives beautiful.” In the coming days, it will be especially important for you to tap into this power spot in your own gray matter, Aries. You need to activate and stir up the feelings of enchantment that are stored there. Doing so will make you fully alert and available for the new delights that will be swirling in your vicinity. The operative principle is like attracts like.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Are you close to anyone who is a catalytic listener? Is there

a person who tunes in to what you say with such fervent receptivity that you get inspired to reveal truths you didn’t realize you knew? If so, invite this superstar out to a free lunch or two in the coming days. If not, see if you can find one. Of course, it is always a blessing to have a heart-to-heart talk with a soul friend, but it is even more crucial than usual for you to treat yourself to this luxury now. Hints of lost magic are near the surface of your awareness. They’re still unconscious, but could emerge into full view during provocative conversations with an empathetic ally.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) On my blog, I quoted

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Our ancestors could see the Milky Way Galaxy spread out across the heavens on every clear night. Galileo said it was so bright, it cast a shadow of his body on the ground. But today that glorious spectacle is invisible to us city dwellers. The sky after sundown is polluted with artificial light that hides 90 percent of the 2,000 stars we might otherwise see. If you want to bask in the natural illumination, you’ve got to travel to a remote area where the darkness is deeper. Let’s make that your metaphor, Taurus. Proceed on the hypothesis that a luminous source of beauty is concealed from you. To become aware of it, you must seek out a more profound darkness.

IE AR S 3. 21 - 4.19

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) “Dear Gemini: I don’t demand your total attention and I don’t need your unconditional approval. I will never restrict your freedom or push you to explain yourself. All I truly want to do is to warm myself in the glow of your intelligence. Can you accept that? I have this theory that your sparkle is contagious--that I’ll get smarter about how to live my own life if I can simply be in your presence. What do you say? In return, I promise to deepen your appreciation for yourself and show you secrets about how best to wield your influence. Signed, Your Secret Admirer.” CANCER (June 21-July 22) The Cancerian artist Rembrandt became one of the world’s greatest painters. It was a struggle. “I can’t paint the way they want me to paint,” he said about those who questioned his innovative approach. “I have tried and I have tried very hard, but I can’t do it. I just can’t do it!” We should be glad the master failed to meet his critics’ expectations. His work’s unique beauty didn’t get watered down. But there was a price to pay. “That is why I am just a little crazy,” Rembrandt concluded. Here’s the moral of the story: To be true to your vision and faithful to your purpose, you may have to deal with being a little crazy. Are you willing to make that trade-off? LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) The Indian spiritual teacher Nisargadatta Maharaj offered a three-stage fable to symbolize one’s progression toward enlightenment. In the first stage, you are inside a cage located in a forest where a tiger prowls. You’re protected by the cage, so the tiger can’t hurt you. On the other hand, you’re trapped. In the second stage, the tiger is inside the cage and you roam freely through the forest. The beautiful animal is trapped. In the third stage, the tiger is out of the cage and you have tamed it. It’s your ally and you are riding around on its back. I believe this sequence has resemblances to the story you’ll be living in the coming months. Right now you’re inside the cage and the tiger is outside. By mid-May the tiger will be in the cage and you’ll be outside. By your birthday, I expect you to be riding the tiger.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) What is “soul work,” anyway? It’s like when you make an unpredictable gift for someone you love. Or when you bravely identify one of your unripe qualities and resolve to use all your willpower and ingenuity to ripen it. Soul work is when you wade into a party full of rowdy drunks and put your meditation skills to the acid test. It’s like when you teach yourself not merely to tolerate smoldering ambiguity, but to be amused by it and even thrive on it. Can you think of other examples? It’s Soul Work Week for you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Does your mother know what you are up to these days? Let’s hope not. I doubt if she would fully approve, and that might inhibit your enthusiasm for the experiments you are exploring. It’s probably best to keep your father out of the loop as well, along with other honchos, cynics or loved ones who might be upset if you wander outside of your usual boundaries. And as for those clucking voices in your head: Give them milk and cookies, but don’t pay attention to their cautious advice. You need to be free of the past, free of fearful influences, and free of the self you’re in the process of outgrowing. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) For the foreseeable future, I urge you not to spend much time wrangling

with bureaucrats and know-it-alls. Avoid frustrating projects that would require meticulous discipline. Don’t even think about catching up on paperwork or organizing your junk drawer or planning the next five years of your career. Instead, focus on taking long meandering walks to nowhere in particular. Daydream about an epic movie based on your life story. Flirt with being a lazy bum. Play noncompetitive games with unambitious people. Here’s why: Good ideas and wise decisions are most likely to percolate as you are lounging around doing nothing -- and feeling no guilt for doing nothing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Are you waiting? Are you wondering and hoping? Are you calculating

whether you are needed, and if so, how much? Do you wish the signs were clearer about how deeply you should commit yourself? Are you on edge as you try to gauge what your exact role is in the grand scheme of things? I’m here to deliver a message from the universe about how you should proceed. It’s a poem by Emily Dickinson: “They might not need me but – they might – / I’ll let my Heart be just in sight – / A smile so small as mine might be / Precisely their necessity -”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You will soon get a second chance. An opportunity you failed to capitalize on

in the past will re-emerge in an even more welcoming guise, and you will snag it this time. You weren’t ready for it the first time it came around, but you are ready now! It’s probably a good thing the connection didn’t happen earlier, because at that time the magic wasn’t fully ripe. But the magic is ripe now!

author Ray Bradbury: “You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you.” I asked my readers what word they would use in place of “writing” to describe how they avoided being destroyed by reality. Popular responses were love, music, whiskey, prayer, dreams, gratitude and yoga. One woman testified that she stayed drunk on sexting, while another said “collecting gargoyles from medieval cathedrals,” and a third claimed her secret was “jumping over hurdles while riding a horse.” There was even a rebel who declared she stayed drunk on writing so she could destroy reality. My question is important for you to meditate on, Scorpio. Right now you must do whatever’s necessary to keep from being messed with by reality.

The Onondaga Nation is gearing up to pitch plans to build a vertical greenhouse in Syracuse and a smaller one on its sovTAKE ereign territory. Oren Lyons is chairman of the board and the Nation is part owner of Plantagon, Inc., which is building a high-tech, sustainable greenhouse in Linköping, Sweden.

QUICK

By Renée K. Gadoua

What was the impact of the Two-Row Wampum renewal campaign during the summer? It had a very serious impact on the representative of the Netherlands (Dutch Consul General Rob de Vos). We invited him to come to the Nation, and he accepted. That was a 400-yearold handshake, and the agreement we made way back then. … All over Indian Country, there’s a resurgence of interest in our history. The states are still colonizers. The issue is land. As long as it’s culture and feathers and dancing, it’s fine. As soon as you say “land” or “sovereignty,” it’s different. This has been a long, cold winter. What is your view of that as a Native? I have a longer memory. I remember cold winters, with snow up to the traffic lights. … What we’re seeing is global warming. We’re in a change. We’ve been observing this for a long time. Nobody’s been listening. Now we’re looking at consequences.

Oren Lyons is faithkeeper of the Turtle Clan, Onondaga Council of Chiefs of the Haudenosaunee for the Onondaga Nation, a principal figure in the Traditional Circle of Indian Elders, a professor, a former All-American lacrosse player at Syracuse University, an artist and an advocate for indigenous peoples.

What’s the solution? It’s a global problem, and it requires a global solution. (U.S.) politics are dictated by elections every four years. The chiefs of Onondaga are in there for life. I’ve been 47 years a chief. We have continuity. Young people are learning from the old people. The principles are simple: peace, equity, fairness, looking out for the common good.

04.02.14 - 04.09.14 | syracusenewtimes.com

Oren Lyons, Onondaga Nation faithkeeper, will receive the 2014 Wisdom Keeper Award during a reception 5 to 8 p.m. tonight at the Oncenter.

Interested in what Oren Lyons thinks on a variety of topics? Several videos can be found on YouTube.

Should the Washington football team change its name? What is a mascot? It is a representative of a team. You have the Army Mule. You’ve got the Navy Bulldog. Then you have the Washington Redskins. It’s an appropriation from one people of another people. By what right? Well, you know, we have the Iroquois Nationals. I wanted to get a mascot. It was going to be a pilgrim. It would be a little, fat pilgrim. He would come running out every time we make a goal, and then one of our guys would come out and pop him with one of those rubber-tip arrows and drag him off the field. How long do you think that would last? What’s new with Plantagon? It’s a greenhouse that’s designed for cities to meet the needs of cities that are getting bigger and bigger and transference of food. The greenhouse is one of the oldest inventions, but it’s always been a flat. They’ve never been able to go up because you need the sun.

TALK BACK

Syracuse Hancock International Airport was the fourth location for Café Kubal. No more. The kiosk is gone, replaced Monday by a Dunkin’ Donuts. The decision was made by the new airport concession manager, Creative Food Group LLC, of New York City. On the Syracuse New Times Facebook page, we asked, “Should a popular local coffee shop be replaced by a chain? No. We are suppose to embrace local. That’s what’s WRONG with Syracuse. Wake up, Syracuse. — Scott A. Chambers

Kubal has been a bright and hopeful spot at the airport. DD???????? Never touch the stuff. — Hanna Richardson

Should anything be replaced by a chain? One step closer to the homogenization of the world. — Joseph Cortini

WHY WE REDESIGNED THE NEW TIMES

A

s we celebrate our 45th year, we’re excited to bring you the first edition of the rebranded and redesigned Syracuse New Times and hope you appreciate reading it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

This project began more than eight months ago as we recognized the changing landscape of printed news in Syracuse had left many readers and advertisers disenfranchised and feeling abandoned. Readers tell us regularly how much they appreciate having a printed paper that informs them of activities and events and keeps key issues in the community on their minds and in the public forum for discussion. You honor us by continuing to grow our circulation over the six-county area we serve. We do not believe that print is dying, and we will not follow the thrice-weekly newspaper down that road. We do believe that digital has a place as a complementary product to the printed word, and we launched a redesigned website in November as part of this redesign project. The site is updated daily and helps us to address the need for timeliness in reporting key stories we feel our readers will be interested in reading. At the same time, we made a commitment to expand the content in our printed paper and to upgrade the

design. You are holding the result of that effort. We intend to keep the content that has made the Syracuse New Times your source for arts, entertainment, dining and community events with popular features like Sanity Fair, Jeff Kramer’s humor and News and Blues. We will add features, like fashion and the urban lifestyle, and expanded coverage of dining, music and fitness, while providing a more prominent platform for people in the community to express their views. This idea of change and improvement is not a new or novel one. All organizations must grow and evolve in response to the needs of the people they serve. Our readers are among the most educated and affluent people in Central New York. We intend to continue to create a platform for them to be entertained and educated, and to provide a means for our advertisers to reach those highly desirable customers. Please continue to tell us how we are doing. Oh, and no, we will never allow our website comments to be unmoderated. SNT

Don’t be afraid to tell us what YOU think!

NO! — Cheley Frazier Absolutely not. I would never choose corporate over local run/owned. Besides, the national chains’ coffee is horrible. — Nicholas Caiello No F*cking way … — Raymond Clark What is wrong with the Syracuse airport? We should be promoting local business. Go to DD at the Thurway rest areas instead. There are already Tim Hortons and DD outside the airport in N. Syracuse. — Kathleen Gillies

NoNoNo!!! — Beth Ferri NO! I am tired of chains everywhere. The great thing I used to love about an airport was the ability to see a bit of the local flavours, but not anymore. It is always a chain. Café Kubal had really great coffee, way better than Dunkin’s. — Dawn Douville

Out with the small and local, in with the big and corporate. — Nadia Tressler Creative Food Group LLC is not being very creative. — Sheri Lyn Smith Cleeton

URBAN INDUSTRIAL VERTICAL FARMING The architectural drawing of a Plantagon’s “Plantascraper” at the right, while it looks eerily like many of the early conceptual iterations of Destiny USA, is more than fanciful look at the future of farming. Will it happen here? We will have to see. Here is the skinny on how it works according to the Swedish company’s website. Go to plantagon.com for more. Plantagon integrates the building on site and adapts it to site specific light conditions which vary from location to location in the existing urban fabric of cities. The verticality is important in order to optimize the production of food and the functionality of the building. The patented transportation helix (also referred to as the spiral or the ramp) is the most important concept behind the industrial process of all Plantagon systems. It has been developed based on three main optimization factors: •To maximize the footprint usage ratio of the helix; •To minimize the use of water; •To minimize the demand for artificial lighting; •To gain as homogeneous light levels as possible.

To see the video on plantagon go to syracusenewtimes.com.

Oren Lyons and Hans Hassle — chief executive officer of Plantagon International A.B., a joint venture between the Onondaga Nation and Swedes to build Plantagon — will discuss their project Monday, April 7, as part of a F.O.C.U.S. Greater Syracuse program.

We solved the problem with sun-reaching layers. The design now for Linköping (Sweden) is done. We want to build one here in Syracuse. The greenhouse is extraordinary. We’ve won all kinds of prizes for it. It’s not been built yet but everybody recognizes the potential. What is the status of efforts here? Do you have a site? Wherever it goes up first, that’s where it’s going to get the most attention. I want it to be here. This is Onondaga land. We’re going to build one at Onondaga. It’s so productive, we can’t build a big one there. The one (for Syracuse) is probably the size of the one we’re building in Linköping. It’s 17 stories and grows 500 metric tons of food a year. What is your timeline? As quick as we can do it.
