Too-Much-Reality TV

Russian producers are planning the so-far-ultimate survivors’ show: in the Siberian wilderness for nine months, where temperatures are as low as minus 40 degrees, with 30 contestants selected after signing liability waivers that protect the show even if someone is raped or murdered. (Police may come arrest the perpetrators, but the producers are not responsible for intervening.)

The show, Game2: Winter, will be telecast live, around the clock, beginning July 2017 via 2,000 cameras placed in a large area full of bears and treacherous forest. Producers told Siberian Times in December that 60 prospects had already signed up for the last-person-standing prize: the equivalent of $1.6 million. The only requirements: Be 18 and “sane.”

The production company’s advertising lists the “dangerous” behaviors it allows, including “fighting,” “murder,” “rape” and “smoking.”

Government Inaction

Short Subject

Thomas Morgan, 42, was charged in a May 7 incident at the University of Iowa’s Main Library when, using a men’s room urinal, he turned to reveal to a fellow user that he was “measuring” his penis with a hand-lettered cardboard “ruler.”

Oops!

Organizers of the Christmas Day caroling program at the Nelum Pokuna theater in Colombo, Sri Lanka, drawing thousands of devout celebrants, were apparently confused by one song title and innocently included it in the book for the carolers. It was “Hail Mary” by the late rapper Tupac Shakur, likely resulting in the very first appearance of certain words in any Christmas service publication anywhere.

Hump Daze

With car-camel collisions increasing in Iran’s two southern provinces, an Iranian government ministry is in the process of issuing identification cards to each camel, supposedly leading to outerwear license “plates” on each of the animals. Authorities told the Islamic Republic News Agency the registration numbers are needed if an accident victim needs to report the camel or to help trace smugglers.

toilet cubicles a view of the forest through ceiling-to-floor windows. To discourage sightseers who believe the better view is not from the cubicles but into them, the bottom portion, up to the level of the toilet, is frosted, although that stratagem probably blurs only a pair of legs, seated.

CNN reported in October that China has at least one other such restroom, in Guilin province, viewing distant mountains.

Officials of the Ulm Minster in Ulm, Germany, the world’s tallest church (530 feet high), said in October that they fear it might eventually be brought down — by visitors who make the long trek up with a full bladder and no place to relieve themselves except in dark alcoves, thus eroding the structure’s sandstone. A building preservation representative also cited vomit in the alcoves, perhaps as a result of the dizzying height of the view from the top.

Turing Pharmaceuticals bought the right to market the lifesaving drug Daraprim and promptly raised its typical price of $18 a pill to $750, but in November, high schoolers in the chemistry lab at Sydney Grammar in Australia created a molecular knockoff of Daraprim for about $2 a tablet. Their sample of “pyrimethamine” (Daraprim’s chemical name) was judged authentic by a University of Sydney chemistry professor. Daraprim, among other uses, fights deadly attacks on immune systems, such as for HIV patients.

Feel-Good Marketing

One branch of the James Harper funeral homes, in Bromley, England, announced its latest promotion via a sign in a front window, as reported by the Bromley News Shopper in September: “Wow! Free Child’s Battery Powered Vehicle With Every Pre-Paid Funeral Arranged This Month.” A Harper spokesperson said the purpose was to encourage residents to think ahead about funerals.

“Considering Cremation?” was the headline of the Aug. 7 advertising supplement to the Tampa Bay Times and other Florida newspapers, appearing just below a snapshot of a mom, dad and three youngsters frolicking in the grass,

1.11.17 - 1.17.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

seemingly overjoyed. Nothing about cremation appeared except dates and sites of free cremation seminars, sponsored by the National Cremation Society, whose website is, thankfully, more somber.

Frontiers of Science

Large kidney stones typically mean eye-watering pain and sudden urinary blockage until the stone “passes,” which often requires expensive sound-wave treatment to break up a large stone. Michigan State University urologist David Wartinger told The Atlantic in September that he had recently happened upon a pain-free way to pass stones before they become problems: the centripetal force from a roller coaster ride. In a 200-trip experiment preparing for a validating “human” trial, he successfully passed stones in his hand-held, silicone model kidney, using his own urine, about two-thirds of the time when sitting in a rear seat at Disney World’s Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.

Nature Calls

To serve restroom users in a public park in China’s Hunan Province’s picturesque Shiyan Lake area, architects gave users in

The Dubai-based Gulf News reported in November that 900 Kuwaiti government workers had their pay frozen during the current investigation into no-shows, including one unidentified man on the payroll who reportedly had not actually worked in 10 years. Another, who had been living abroad for 18 months while drawing his Kuwaiti pay, was reduced to half-pay, but insisted he had asked several times for assignments but was told nothing was available. Gulf News reported that the 10-year man is appealing the freeze!

Gone with the Wind

Prosecutors in Darlington, England, obviously take child “cruelty” seriously because Gary McKenzie, 22, was hauled into court in October on four charges against a boy (whose name and age were not published), including passing gas in the boy’s face. The charge was described as “in a manner likely to cause him unnecessary suffering or injury to health.”

He was on trial for two other slightly harsher acts — and another gas-passing, against a different boy — but the judgment has not been reported.

Chests and Checkmates

World-class chess players are famous for intense powers of concentration, but a chess journal reported in October that topflight female players have actually been disqualified from matches for showing too much cleavage as they play, thus distracting their opponent, according to Ms. Sava Stoisavljevic, head of the European Chess

Union. In fact, the Women’s World Chess Championship, scheduled for February, has decreed that, since the matches will be held in Tehran, all contestants must wear hijabs, leading a U.S. women’s champion to announce she is boycotting.

Date Night

German Horst Wenzel, “Mr. Flirt,” fancies himself a smooth-talking maestro, teaching mostly wealthy but tongue-tied German men lessons (at about $1,500 a day!) in how to approach women. This year he has decided to “give back” to the community by offering his expertise pro bono to lonely Syrian and Iraqi refugees who have flooded the country.

At one class in Dortmund in November, observed by an Associated Press reporter, most “students” were hesitant, apparently divided between the embarrassed (when Wenzel informed them it’s “normal” to have sex on the first or second date) and the awkwardly confident (opening line: “I love you. Can I sleep over at your place?”). But, advised Wenzel, “Don’t tell (a German woman) that you love (her) at least for the first three months (because) German women don’t like clinginess.”

Awkward Situations

A paramedic with the St. Louis Fire Department discovered on Aug. 4 that his car, in the station’s parking lot, had been broken into and was missing various items. Minutes after he filed a police report, the station received an emergency call about a pedestrian hit by a car, and the paramedic and crew rushed to the scene. As he was helping the victim, the paramedic noticed that his own gym bag and belongings were strewn about the scene and concluded that the man he was attending to was likely the man who had broken into his car. The paramedic continued to assist the man, and police told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that they would arrest the man as soon as he was discharged from the hospital.

Raylon Parker, doing his duty in August on a grand jury in Halifax County, N.C., listened to a prosecutor lay out a case, and to Parker’s apparent surprise, the case was against Raylon Parker for assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill. Still, he voted on the indictment, which passed; due to grand jury secrecy, we do not know which way he voted. One possibility: He voted to indict, assuming a judge would toss it out, tainting the prosecutor’s case. However, Parker’s judge said the indictment — signifying “probable cause” — was still valid and that she would not inquire how Parker had voted.

Way to Go

A 24-year-old woman who worked at a confectionary factory in Fedortsovo, Russia, was killed in December when she fell into a vat of chocolate. Some witnesses said she was pouring flour when she fell; others say she fell while trying to retrieve

her dropped cellphone.

A 24-year-old man was decapitated in London in August when he leaned too far out the window of one train and struck an extension on a passing train. Next to the window he leaned from was a sign warning people not to stick their heads out.

Delay and Replace

A poll sponsored by University of Graz and Austria Press Agency revealed in December that Austria’s “word of the year” for 2016 was a 52-letter word beginning “bundespraesident” and referring to the postponement of the runoff election for president in 2016.

Aria Code

The Wall Street Journal reported in December a longstanding feud on the tiny Mediterranean island of Gozo, Malta, which has only 37,000 residents but two opera houses because of the owners’ mutual antipathy.

Penmanship Counts

Wu Jianping, 25, from China’s Henan province, complained in November that he had been denied home loans at several banks for not providing fingerprints — because he has no arms (following a childhood accident) and “signs” documents by holding a pen in his mouth. He was not allowed to substitute “toeprints.”

Rodent Rage

In October, Chicago alderman Howard Brookins Jr. publicly denounced “aggressive” squirrels that were gnawing through trash cans and costing the city an extra $300,000. A month later, Brookins was badly injured in a bicycle collision (broken nose, missing teeth) when a squirrel jumped into one of his wheels, sending Brookins over the handlebar.

Sleigh Ride

In October, officials of Alaska’s Iditarod reaffirmed an earlier decision to allow mushers to use mobile phones during the 2017 race. “Purists” maintain that phones destroy the “frontier-ness” of the event.

Holes Against Humanity

The rebellion against the absurdities of Black Friday by the organization Cards Against Humanity came in the form of raising money to dig a pointless hole in the ground. During the last week of November, people “contributed” $100,573, with Cards digging initially for 5.5 seconds per donated dollar. In 2015, according to an NPR report, Cards raised $71,145 by promising to do “absolutely nothing” with it, and the year before, $180,000 by selling bits of bull feces.

Asked why Cards doesn’t just give the money to charity, a spokesperson asked why donors themselves don’t give it to charity. “It’s (their) money.” syracusenewtimes.com | 1.11.17 - 1.17.17

THINGS THAT MATTER

By Luke Parsnow

THE PRESIDENTIAL PENDULUM CONUNDRUM

C

olumnist Megan McArdle wrote back in July 2013, just seven months into President Obama’s second term, that there was a 70 percent chance that Republicans would control the White House and both houses of Congress in 2017, a claim she acknowledged received a lot of pushback. Her argument for such a prediction was simple. She says “mostly, the White House flips back and forth like a metronome.”

Next week when Donald Trump is sworn in as the nation’s 45th president, he will be the latest edition to a political pattern that has inherited the White House for much of the last half-century. Incumbent presidents have been very good at winning. But incumbent parties have not.

President Obama had hoped he would be watching Hillary Clinton be sworn in on Jan. 20, and put in an enormous amount of effort to make that happen.

But Obama now joins George W. Bush and Bill Clinton as the third consecutive two-term president to see a member of the opposite party succeed him. The metronome has swung back again.

While Trump’s victory was vastly unexpected by just about every model possible, history shows us that we shouldn’t have been so surprised. It is extremely difficult for Republicans and Democrats to hold onto the White House for more than eight years.

Indeed, such a political feat has only been accomplished three times in the last 100 years. Republican Warren G. Harding was elected in 1920 to lead a nation weary of World War I and eager to focus on domestic issues. Thanks to the economic

boom of the Roaring 20s, Republicans were able to keep the presidency for 12 years.

Then the Great Depression ushered in Franklin Roosevelt and his unprecedented four victorious elections, followed

by Harry Truman winning a term of his own after Roosevelt’s death, locking Republicans out of the White House for two whole decades. Then after Ronald Reagan’s landslide victories in 1980 and 1984, George H.W. Bush was able to decisively win Reagan’s third term in 1988.

The elder Bush also stands out because he was the first sitting vice president to win an election since Martin Van Buren in 1836. We’d like to think of the vice presidency as a convenient stepping stone to the presidency, but it’s actually a hurdle very few have been able to overcome.

Vice President Richard Nixon was bested by John F. Kennedy in 1960, but then won eight years later by defeating then-Vice President Hubert Humphrey.

And hanging chads and butterfly ballots kept Al Gore from returning to the White House with a promotion in 2000. We can only speculate on the success of Joe Biden, who danced around the idea of

running in 2016 for some time.

Hillary Clinton wasn’t Obama’s vice president, but she was clearly his choice for an heir apparent. She had been his secretary of state, pledged to preserve and build on the work he had started and was a noble of the Democratic Party. In many ways, Clinton was the 2016 version George H.W. Bush in 1988: Both had been former primary rivals of the presidents they went on to serve under, then hoped to use their respective president’s high popularity as a way to follow them into office.

What makes Clinton’s situation unique is something rarely talked about during the campaign. Obama had a 56 percent approval rating in the months leading up to the election, much higher than the last few presidents at their time of leaving office. Yet of all the presidents since 1950 who were able to win two terms, only one received fewer votes in his second election than in his first: Barack Obama, who predicted he would’ve beaten Trump had he been on the ballot. There are many, like self-described liberal Politico contributing editor Bill Scher, who have strong doubts about such a bold statement.

These presidential patterns have endless factors, be they wars, economic conditions, scandals, unpopular candidates and so on. But fundamentally, Americans are simply impatient. Americans have a short attention span. Americans just simply get tired after eight years. When they feel one party isn’t working, they’ll vote the other one into power.

“Change” was a word on Obama’s lectern in 2008. It’s also a word Trump used repeatedly during his stump speeches.

American frustrations with their government always makes for “change elections.” Clearly, the last three presidents

have struggled to find just the right message to convince enough people to keep their party in power.

And when it comes to an election about change, Trump is about as radical a change as can be measured. Meanwhile, Clinton represented the exact opposite, not just because she served in the Obama White House, but because she’s part of a political dynasty. And people have a strong distaste for dynasties after a certain point. After two Bushes and one Clinton have reigned for 20 of the last 28 years, another four or possibly eight with another Clinton was evidently something the country wasn’t interested in.

The seesawing of our national politics probably won’t change soon: The country is too divided for that. Any talk of electoral dominance over the last decade, and there’s been a lot, has been purely fantasy.

In 2004, George W. Bush was re-elected and Karl Rove predicted Republicans had built a “permanent majority.” Two years later, they lost control of the House of Representatives and the Senate. Two years after that, they lost the White House to Obama and John Judis of The New Republic proclaimed we were now “America the liberal.” Two years after that, the Tea Party rose and Republicans won back the House. Two years after that, Obama was safety re-elected. Two years after that, Republicans took control of the Senate and won their largest majority in Congress in nearly a century. Two years after that, those majorities hold and Trump will take the helm on Jan. 20.

People change. Parties change. Conditions of the country change. And no matter how much power a party has or how popular a president is, that metronome is bound to swing back, sooner or later. SNT

KRAMER

By Jeff Kramer

Jeanette (My mom).

On Jan 3, just before sunset in Seattle, I lost my No. 1 fan. There will come a time when I find the words to convey to a general audience who my mother was and what she meant to me, but for now I ask you to accept this abbreviated column as a concession that this is one of those embarrassing times when words fail a writer.

I did a decent job of eulogizing her two days after she drew her last breath at age 79, but that doesn’t really count. Most of the two dozen people who attended the

funeral knew my mother and loved her, and they understood what it meant to be swept up in The Jeanette Kramer Experience. You are at a disadvantage that way.

All I can tell you is you would not soon forget Jeanette even if you had met her just once. She was a tornado of contrasting life forces swirling into every room she entered. Childlike yet wise. Caring yet self-absorbed. Vulnerable yet tough-minded. A charmer whose self-effacing manner and schoolgirl voice belied vast reserves of strength and stubbornness.

Her life bubbled with these wonderful ironies but there was nothing wonderful about the irony that claimed her. A non-drinker who took meticulous care of herself, she was diagnosed in November with late-stage liver failure, perhaps brought on by an auto-immune disorder that was slowly eroding her boundless vitality. It doesn’t seem possible she is gone.

So yes, sometime down the road, I plan to round out the portrait for you, to supply the appropriate journalistic mix of anecodotes sweet and sad, and leave a fitting record of who Jeanette was.

I’m confident you will enjoy her, but there’s no concealing my selfishness here.

My mother’s story is a story I need to tell to help me come to terms with my loss.

There’s just a lot to process. I’ll need some time. SNT

Mayoral candidate Ben Walsh has a bloodline in city politics

By Walt Shepperd

“

My dad always joked that it was my destiny to go into public service,” Ben Walsh says. “At the same time he never really pressured me and never really brought it up. At the same time, I’ve always wondered. I remember the first time he brought it up and it’s stuck with me, and I’ve wondered if it was in the cards for me from the beginning. But either way, whether it’s a coincidence or something more than that, I am the third second son.”

And now Ben Walsh is running for mayor of Syracuse.

Jim Walsh, the second second Walsh son who was a Congress member for two decades, insists there’s no Hibernian mythology to aspire to with the rank order of births. But the resume built over the last three generations announces the degree of political impact attainable by one Central New York family.

Jim’s second-son father was Bill Walsh, first elected Onondaga County welfare commissioner when that office was still on the ballot in the late 1950s, followed by stints as Syracuse mayor in the 1960s and in Congress during the 1970s. Jim served as 3rd District common councilor and council president before his 20year tenure in Congress. (Bill Walsh’s first son Bill logged time as a County Court judge; his daughter, Martha Walsh Hood, is a supervising judge with the 5th District Family Court.)

All that impressive family connection, however, may not help much in Ben Walsh’s quest for the big chair in City Hall. An independent not enrolled in a party, he faces a 3-1 Democrat edge among city voters. And GOP County Chair Tom Dadey has already expressed his preference for LaFayette schools superintendent Laura Lavine on the party’s mayoral ballot line.

Undeterred, Ben Walsh now contemplates the possibility of other ballot lines. Ultimately, with a master’s degree from Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public 1.11.17 - 1.17.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

Affairs and six years working with the current administration, he is ready to run as an independent.

What is your job description for the mayor of Syracuse?

There are certain qualities any mayor has to have, which I believe I possess. First is a manager. The mayor has to be able to effectively and efficiently manage city government: basic city services, picking up trash, paving and plowing the streets, keeping neighborhoods clean and safe. The mayor also has to be able to manage people, and the best way to do that is to make sure you surround yourself with the right people. And that’s what I intend to do.

The mayor also has to be a consensus builder, something I have a proven track record of being. That means you have to bring the right people together to solve problems. Doesn’t always mean you have to agree with everyone. Doesn’t mean you necessarily have to get along with everyone. But the mayor has to be able to develop and nurture relationships with those who can help them advance the community’s collective priorities.

And finally, the mayor has to be a leader. Maybe some people take that as a given, but it’s critically important. Leaders have to make tough, oftentimes unpopular decisions. At the same time leaders need to be able to rise above the issues that divide the

Ben Walsh: “The mayor has to be a consensus builder.” Michael Davis photos

community and focus on what brings people together to work toward a common goal.

Should we metropolitanize, or whatever the current terminology, the city and county governments?

The issue of city-county consolidation, modernization, has been around for a long time. Actually, 11, 12 years ago when I was at the Maxwell School getting my master’s in public administration, my capstone project was helping Syracuse 20-20 with a report on government consolidation.

From my perspective, especially having spent six years in City Hall, the way that I look at it is there is a lot of opportunity for efficiency within government, both intra-government, within city government, and inter-government, between the city and the county and other municipalities.

Those opportunities have been around for a long time and will continue to be around, and it really requires leadership and the right people to work together. In

terms of a full-scale consolidation, I think that the only way that should happen is by a vote. Up to this point we’ve had trouble tackling the low-hanging fruit.

Should we consolidate the city schools with those in the county?

If there’s a more difficult question than consolidating city and county government, it would be the school districts. As the father of two young girls, one who is currently in the city school district and one who will be in a couple of years, that issue is near and dear to my heart.

From my own personal experience, I’m thrilled with the education my daughter is receiving in the city school district.

But the reality is that not everyone in this community has the same access to a quality education. That’s unconscionable.

That should not be acceptable to anyone.

One of the reasons I feel comfortable with the decision that we made for schools was that we had options. There are many parents who don’t.

What should we do with Route 81?

I’m of the opinion that the elevated viaduct that currently divides the city should come down in favor of what is being called the community grid model by the New York State Department of Transportation. The idea being that we use the existing street grid with some enhancements to accommodate whatever additional traffic that comes off of 81, any local traffic. The through traffic would be rerouted on 481 with some enhancements.

Right now, if you look at trends and statistics across the country, less and less young people are even driving, and if they are driving they are waiting longer to get their driver’s licenses. At the same time we have autonomous vehicles, cars that are driving themselves on city streets. If you look at the direction that transportation is going in this country, why would we rebuild 20th-century infrastructure for a 21st century that is moving beyond that?

What needs to be developed in the center city, who should be doing it, and who should be paying for it?

As the former city economic development director, I have some strong opinions on this. One thing that gets lost in the debate about economic development is that Syracuse and upstate New York is a challenging place to do business. Doesn’t mean it’s impossible. When you look at what has happened over the past 50 years or so, it’s evident that it’s not the most competitive place for a lot of people to do business. We need to recognize that, and support those who are willing to make an investment in our community, and understand the correlation between the actions of government and how that impacts those who are making the investments.

All development is not created equal. It does not mean that anyone that’s willing

JIM WALSH: LENDING FATHERLY ADVICE

As a counselor providing advice for clients on interfaces with elements of the federal government, Jim Walsh knows to keep emotion out of the business, and at times needs to make what he would rather not call “educated guesses.” A 20-year tenure as the local representative in the House helps with perspective, but about a year ago he was confronted with a tough one on both items.

“He raised it with me,” Walsh recalls the approach from his son Ben considering a run for Syracuse mayor this November. There was, however, an ironic element to the inquiry. “He’s not interested in politics,” the father says of the son. “He’s more focused on governance than on party power politics. He’s interested solely in becoming mayor.”

An initial thought was for Ben to run as an independent — he is not enrolled in a party — with Republican endorsement, since both his father and grandfather Bill were dominant figures in city and congressional GOP politics. “It would be a tough path,”

to invest in this community, regardless of what they’re investing in, that we should just open up the flood gates and get out of the way. We need to be mindful, particularly when we’re considering whether or not to invest public resources, to make sure that it aligns with our collective economic development priorities, the type of development that adds the most value to the community. Jobs, of course, is an important consideration, and who is benefiting from those jobs.

Syracuse has the poorest communities of color in the country. As mayor, what could you do?

We have to do something. With the recent reports that have come out, while they have been effective in getting people’s attention, I think that most people who have been paying attention, particularly people in the marginalized communities that have been hurt the most by the status quo, they’ve known this for a long time. This isn’t new information. But that does not decrease the emergency that we need to do something immediately about this.

The way I’ve gone about trying to be part of the solution is that we need to start breaking down some of these barriers that have limited our abilities as a community to grow, and grow together. There are neighborhoods that are one or two blocks away from each other, and they are a world away. There are people who grow up in this community that never go outside of a few-block radius.

Development and opportunity are about relationships. That means having really difficult discussions that people aren’t comfortable with, including discussions about race and discrimination, discussions that we, as a community, have not been willing to have often enough. SNT

Jim Walsh reflects. Especially since Republican Party County Chair Tom Dadey has expressed his preference for LaFayette Central School District Superintendent Laura Lavine on this fall’s ballot for City Hall.

But with a dozen Democrats expressing interest, the potential for knockdown, drag-out primaries in both major parties, and the emergence of special interest ballot lines, Jim Walsh sees the possibility of a three- or four-way race at the top of the ticket.

Jim Walsh cites passion and managerial skills as crucial to command leadership in the quest to solve the problems of a “second tier” city in the 21st century.

“The big cities are coming back,” he notes, predicting a rebirth for urban America in the next 25 years.

“Young people want to be downtown. All forms of economic development will be focused on the cities.

This city needs a good manager who can create the best team.”

Recalling the role his father played in support of his own political initiation, Jim Walsh insists, “I will play no formal role in this campaign, but I will be there if he wants to talk.”

SONGS WITH SHELLEY

Joan Shelley didn’t study music in college. She graduated with a degree in cultural anthropology in 2008 from the University of Georgia. Yet today she’s touring with Wilco and Patty Griffin.

It was an unlikely path but one that somehow unfolded perfectly for the singer, songwriter and instrumentalist who very clearly believes that less is more in musicmaking. Her albums are sparse but effective, using the space to emphasize the message she delivers with a crystal-clear voice.

On Friday, Jan. 20, 8 p.m., Shelley will take the stage for a Folkus Project-sponsored concert at May Memorial Unitarian Universalist Society, 3800 E. Genesee St. Admission is $18; visit folkus.org for more information.

Shelley grew up in Kentucky, just outside of Louisville. Her parents were divorced, so she lived with her mother and found herself influenced by a strange variety of music from her mom’s and brother’s playlists.

brother worked,” she recalls. “I listened to a lot of the darker music he sent me.

And then my mom listened to island and world music. There were a lot of different angles.”

Those influences gave Shelley a unique view of what music was and what moved her. She also started writing at age 6, something she attributes to her extreme shyness.

“I think it was my way of finding expression when I couldn’t express myself socially,” she says about those very early songs. “They were hilarious. In one, I wanted to impress my teacher, so I wrote about Christopher Columbus. And then I started trying to imitate heartbreak songs and write about things I hadn’t experienced yet.”

She moved into the music of Motown and Aretha Franklin, noting that her scattered influences diversified her. She didn’t get attached to a single artist, yet she gravitated toward songs with hooks and melodies that she loved.

Shelley picked up her mom’s guitar when she was a freshman in high school, and hoped that college would help break her out of her musical shell. It did in some ways, as her small group of friends always supported her shows.

“It was a soft landing for performing,” she says of the college environment. “I didn’t encounter critics, which was a good way to get through the bad songs and performances.”

Shelley worked in Argentina for a time after graduating. When she moved back to Kentucky, she immediately dove into songwriting and started connecting with local musicians. After Daniel Martin Moore saw her performance, he asked Shelley to join him as a backing vocalist and banjo player on a European tour in 2010. “That gave me the itch,” Shelley says.

By 2012, Shelley and Moore had recorded Farthest Field together. Also that year, she released her debut solo album Ginko, which was followed by Electric Ursa in 2014 and the 2015 release Over and Even.

While Ginko was simplistic, Electric Ursa was supposed to be a full-band album, until Shelley had second thoughts.

“In mixing, I took so much out,” she says.

“I hated that feeling. I wanted to start this album (Over and Even) with the bare minimum.”

She worked with guitarist Nathan Salsburg on Over and Even, one she felt has made a mark on her career. “I had a breakthrough as far as songwriting goes,” she says of the disc. “It was just the way they came into existence. I tried to record them, then edit and make them better, but I mostly undid any changes. They all came out really fast and together; it was spooky. That winter of 2014 was an interesting short period of time for some of my favorite songs to have shown up.”

Over and Even, which became an album favorite with NPR Music and the Los Angeles Times. That might have been how Jeff Tweedy — of Wilco — heard of her.

“We were playing a festival that Wilco was on and they talked to us,” Shelley says. “They’d heard the record and were very complimentary. We’ve linked up since then. And Patty (Griffin) likes to help out people who are up and coming, especially women.”

Shelley says 2017 is already planned with surprises, as she continues both her solo career and one with her trio, Maiden Radio. “I’m putting things together for the new year,” she says. “They’re not quite ready to be talked about, but I’m excited.”

“Watch your jealousy. If you feel jealousy, it’s a good indicator of where you want to be. Work toward it instead of letting it consume you: What am I jealous of? How can I have these things? It’s healthy letting go. It opens up a path. The other thing: Only you know what you want to do. I always wanted someone to tell me what to do, to show me. But I didn’t have anyone to tell me. That made me completely make it up on my own. I couldn’t really imitate. I wanted to, but couldn’t. Look for people who don’t push you around, and find your own thing.”

BYRON CAGE DRUMS UP SUPPORT FOR LOCAL MUSICIANS

Y

ou’ve seen Byron Cage around town, and you may not even know it. He’s usually huddled behind his gold-coated Pearl drum kit and playing for the likes of Melissa Gardiner and Jess Novak, as well as popping up at Funk ’N Waffles’ jazz jams and other gigs. He is also a national touring and studio musician for a variety of artists including Tommy Castro and Joe Louis Walker.

Cage is featured on Walker’s latest album Everybody Wants A Piece, which has been nominated for a 2017 Grammy Award. The notable blues musician rolled into town for a Jan. 5 show at the waffle eatery’s downtown location.

At that show Cage wore a white button-down shirt, tweed blazer and bow tie, topped with a cabbie hat.

“The first time I went into practice I was wearing shorts and a T-shirt,” Cage recalled earlier during a mid-afternoon interview. Walker pointed out that the other band members were wearing more presentable attire, as Cage quickly learned the musician had high expectations.

How did you and Joe Louis Walker meet?

At the 2010 Blues Music Awards (BMA), I was there

with another band, and he was nominated that year. I brought my mother, and he said she looked like one of his favorite singers, Betty Carter. So here’s this guy singing to my mother. We stayed in touch.

When I moved out to San Francisco, I was touring with another band, and we ended up playing some festivals together.

For about four years I’ve been a recording and touring member of the band.

You’ve played with local musicians Jess Novak and Melissa Gardiner, among many others. Does touring and performing feel different for you?

It sometimes feels like they are on different levels, but playing music is playing music. It doesn’t matter who I’m playing with, but I perform the best I can. I have to learn new material, and I aim to be authentic. Playing with Jess or Melissa or whomever: It’s another day in the office.

Tell me about your Central New York upbringing.

I was born and raised in Liverpool. I graduated from Liverpool High, and went to Liberty University in Virginia. I spent six years down there and got my bachelor’s and master’s degrees. I was gone for about 11 years before returning home.

How did your career get started?

I got called for an audition in Nashville.

It was an opportunity to play with Jason Richie. At the time I hadn’t been playing that long, and I didn’t want to go and embarrass myself. I was called a month later, because the audition was still open. So I tried out this time and got the gig. The month after that I was in Germany.

The plan is to have a Grammy party and hopefully have it in town. But those details have yet to be sorted out.

If you didn’t see yourself being in the national music scene, what did you want to do?

I went to school for psychology. I have my master’s in counseling. The plan after graduating was to come home and help my parents at the church. But that was at 17 years old, and things change.

I worked at becoming a musician. I became involved with a couple guys from the Dave Matthews Band, and Boyd Tinsley is still a good friend. After getting a taste and seeing the possibilities, I wanted to see what would happen.

How has music changed for you throughout the years?

I still listen to a lot of the same cats I did growing up. Mint Condition is a band out of Minnesota. When I first heard them I was in seventh or eighth grade; I was like, what is this? I wanted to do that. They played R&B, jazz, hip-hop and even Latin all on one record. It fascinated me.

Music has changed. Now it’s a lot more electronic, which is processed and the sound quality is not the same. You don’t have to be that talented to be a “star.”

There doesn’t seem to be longevity, either.

After a few years the people who were once hot in the scene, you probably won’t hear too much about them.

Who are you currently listening to?

Mint Condition, James Fontleroy, Ryan Leslie, JJ Grey, Tedeschi Trucks Band.

Did you experience any moments where you were ready to quit?

There will always come a time where you will think twice about what you’re doing, maybe you saw yourself somewhere else. But when you keep doing what you do — for me, it’s simply getting on stage — it’s easy to remember why you’re here. Other opportunities come.

They always do. I’m happy I can play with Joe Louis Walker and with all the bands in town. I keep myself fresh through different avenues. SNT

Byron Cage: “Simply being nominated for a Grammy is a win.”

Were you always interested in drums and percussion? Do you play other instruments?

I play bass, piano, keyboards and organ.

I grew up loving drums. My older brothers and cousins played drums. Everybody played drums. (Laughs.) I grew up watching them, and I thought, man, I wish I could do that. When I went to college, I finally decided to learn how to play.

I grew up around music. I grew up in church. My father was a pastor at Eternal Hope Worship Church on James Street.

He passed away a couple years ago. My mother is now a pastor there. My father taught music to many choirs across the state, and he played piano. Growing up, hearing and watching him and others perform, it was easy to connect as I sat down.

Of course, there was a lot to learn and practice. There is still a lot I have to learn.

I want to take lessons at some point.

Both you and Walker have gospel music backgrounds. Did this interest help forge a connection?

Yeah, the whole band. Traditional gospel and blues are so closely related. Then there is jazz, funk, rhythm’n’blues, soul: all things we have in common individually and as a people. I couldn’t believe he (Walker) was calling me.

You’re nominated for a Grammy. How exciting is that?

Man, I am ecstatic. Simply being nominated is a win. This is something I didn’t dream about as a kid, being on tour and being nominated for a Grammy. It’s a testament to playing real stuff. We’re all musicians and the album is us. The instruments aren’t manipulated and the songs are not over-processed. It’s what we do on stage.

By Christopher Malone was in Booker T. & the M.G.’s and the Blues Brothers. This is something I’ll never forget. I was recording a track.

After the fourth take he told me, “Come back the next day, because after the second take you’re not doing any better, just doing it more.” I’m of that frame of mind.

All of the records we grew up liking featured all the members of the band in the same room together. They did it warts and all.

Overdubbing can get to be too much.

And now I can have my cat be a YouTube star by playing the piano and meowing in key. I can take the pitch bender and Auto-Tune and have it sing with a chorus of other cats.

Do you have anything new brewing?

Yeah, we hope to release a new album in the fall. There are about seven or eight tracks done, and we’ll record five or six more. It’s about making a cohesive record and not having it sound like the last three.

JOE LOUIS WALKER: BLUES SOUL STILL SHINES BRIGHT

B

luesman Joe Louis Walker waltzed into Syracuse Jan. 5 for a show at the downtown Funk ’N Waffles. The 2013 Blues Hall of Fame inductee, who turned 67 on Christmas Day, continues his 40-plus-year music career, which includes a 2017 Grammy Award nomination in the Best Contemporary Blues Album category for his disc Everybody Wants a Piece.

He was joined by fellow nominees Lenny Bradford on bass and local native Byron Cage on percussion.

Local keyboardist Will Gorman took over the ivories, because Phillip Young, who plays on the album, is currently traveling and promoting his clothing company. Walker set the tone with his opener “I’m Not Messin’ Around,” the traditional “Wade in the Water” and an impeccable rendition of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” Before the gig, Walker chatted about his musical influences, his upcoming album and the evils of American Idol.

to speak. And we had a lot of fun doing it. I figure since we had so much fun doing it, people might like it.

Can you give a brief description of your Grammy-nominated album?

Everybody Wants a Piece (2015) is sort of the third of a triumvirate of records. The first was Hellfire (2012) and the second was Hornet’s Nest (2014).

We recorded a lot of songs we flushed out from soundchecks of shows we’ve played from around the world. We wrote quite a bit of material. It’s all of us singing and playing. There aren’t any hired guns so

After all these years, how difficult is songwriting?

It’s like anything else creative. Ideas gestate in your mind. Some songs I wrote when I was 16 were placed on albums when I was 46. I didn’t know how to complete the songs until I got older. You can frustrate yourself by doing something over and over again.

I had a great producer named Steve Cropper. He

1.11.17 - 1.17.17 | syracusenewtimes.com

Hornet’s Nest begins with an explosive title track. Do you aim to kick your albums off with a resonating song to set the tone?

I try not to begin an album or a show like a house on fire, but it sometimes turns out that way. It should be an ebb and flow, like a conversation. When you’re having a conversation, you’re not trying to make a point first. It’s something you lead up to.

Your biography says you picked up the guitar at 14.

Actually, I picked up the guitar at about 10. I didn’t own one until about 14. It was a real cheap Sears, Roebuck & Co. Silvertone.

I play several other instruments: the violin, accordion, harmonica. I still can play the harmonica pretty good; the violin, however, I’d have to really practice. I also play bass and keyboards.

I stuck with the guitar, because it’s the most accessible instrument, I think, for the kind of music I play. To be quite honest, the guitar is the instrument that kind of conquered the world. If you lined up everybody who played a guitar and influenced the music business, it would outweigh every other instrument, I’d say, 30-to-1.

Were your parents musically inclined?

They loved their record player. When they moved to the West Coast, they brought their music from the South. I got my taste in music from them, and my older brothers and sisters — I was the youngest child of five — so I got everybody’s music. I was a sponge. I grew up loving a variety of music and still do.

I moved to the Fillmore district of San Francisco, and my cousins had a band. It was tailor made for me. After a year of schlepping equipment, my mom encouraged me to go to a teacher. I went to a guitar teacher, and she bought me a guitar.

I had to sacrifice sports. All my friends would be going to play basketball or football, and I’d be going to guitar class.

None of those guys are playing sports

anymore, but I’m still playing guitar. (Laughs) I think I made the right decision.

What did your parents do for a living?

My mother was a nurse before she retired and passed on. My father worked construction. He helped build big buildings, including St. Patrick’s Cathedral in San Francisco.

How has your style of blues music changed through the years?

The music business itself has changed. It’s gone from really unique individuals to “Facebook musicians.”

I used to go to the Fillmore Auditorium every week.

When I went to junior high school, I’d have to pass it.

Fillmore was like black Harlem. I remember when the hippies came. (Fillmore promoter) Bill Graham presented a great mixture. You’d have the Grateful Dead, Muddy Waters and a jazz quintet in the same show. With those bands you got a bit of an education.

What I have done with blues: It’s not your grandfather’s blues. I’ve been doing it for a long time, mixing it up. When I was coming up, you had to learn 12-bar and play John Lee Hooker, Freddie King and people like them. Even they opened up their music later on.

There are a lot of young people I know who are famous: Shemekia Copeland, Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi. I’m glad that they can stretch out.

Musicians have to come up through the ranks. There are no shortcuts with experience. You’d see The Yardbirds or others, there would be two different guitar players. Jeff Beck would always be there. There was another guy you didn’t know who that guy was. Who is this guy? He played his ass off. Two years later, everyone knew Jimmy Page.

Do you think reality shows are misconstruing what it means to be a true musician?

A lot of young people want to be famous. They want to be on American Idol and get their YouTube or Facebook numbers up. They get can take shortcuts with technology.

They sing other people’s songs to see how good they are.

It’s a blessing and a curse, because it takes away from individuality. Conformity is rewarded.

The thing is, everything sets in after they win. They ride around in a van and sleep three or four to a room.

They have to play three hours each night. The monitors don’t work on top of a whole mess of problems. You have to learn to deal.

Can you imagine seeing someone like Bob Dylan on American Idol? What does “once upon a time you dressed so fine/ threw the bums a dime in your prime” mean? Jimi, what does “excuse me while I kiss the sky” mean? Nitpicking. They would have shut those guys down before they got started.

When you first started, how did traveling to other cities and enjoying their musical niches help define your music?

It didn’t help define my sound, but it presented a more colorful palette. I love going and living in different countries, because the music is never where you’d expect to find it. You want to find the best African music? Go to France. (Laughs) You want to hear the best reggae music? Go to England. I try to keep my ears and mind open.

How have your jazz collaborations extended beyond the studios and stages?

I’m in the Thelonious Monk Institute. Every April 30, I travel with 40 to 50 musicians all over the world to celebrate International Day of Jazz. The head of the institute is T.S. Monk, Thelonious’ son. The spokesmen are Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock. Other members include Edge and Bono, Taj Mahal, Keb’ Mo’ and B.B. King was also a part of it.

They approached me, because I hold a lot of workshops all over the world: Mississippi, Turkey, Japan. I’m a United States Fellow, and I’m big into education. It’s sanctioned by the United Nations and United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to help foster understanding for different cultures and races through music.

You are also slated to perform again at this year’s Island of Mustique Blues Festival.

Yeah, I was called about 10 years ago by Basil Charles.

It’s two weeks, and we get no money from it. The money we collect through attendees and donations goes directly to benefit the other surrounding islands and their people.

I’m also part of Blues for Peace in New York and the Seva Foundation for the Blind, which was co-founded by my friend Wavy Gravy. I’ve been involved with Bread and Roses in my hometown, which was started by Mimi Fariña, Joan Baez’s sister; Berklee School of Music; American Folk Center; and Rock Against Racism in England.

What was your stint with the Spiritual Corinthians?

I played with the Corinthians from 1975 to 1985. It was probably one of the more enjoyable times in my life.

Gospel groups are different. They keep you grounded, singing spiritually. It was a great camaraderie. It wasn’t big money, but it was for the sheer love of it.

I got back into blues music in 1985, but used them and other gospel groups, the Gospel Hummingbirds and The Jordanaires, on my albums.

A few sources of media refer to you as a “living legend.” Has that ever felt intimidating?

I think the word “legend” is way overrated. I think the word “genius” is way overrated. I think if you live long enough, you do what you do well enough and you maybe influence the genre you’re in, I think people will look at you and say if he hadn’t been here things would have been different.

I think I’ve made my little imprint. I don’t think people would confuse me with Albert King or B.B. King. In that case, it’d feel like wearing someone else’s shoes. I don’t want to do that, never did and never will.

Where do you see the blues going from here?

There are so many young people around the globe playing the blues. The blues is respected all over the world.

The only place where people don’t really know about it is America (laughs), but it’s always been like that. That’s why it took people like the Rolling Stones to bring the blues back here. But it’s always been here. SNT

Two Elephants meet a totally naked guy.

After a while one elephant says to the other, “I really don’t get how he can feed himself with that thing!”

ogy, Yggdrasil is a huge holy tree that links all of the nine worlds to each other. Perched on its uppermost branch is an eagle with a hawk sitting on its head. Far below, living near the roots, is a dragon. The hawk and eagle stay in touch with the dragon via Ratatoskr, a talkative squirrel that runs back and forth between the heights and the depths. Alas, Ratatoskr traffics solely in insults. That’s the only kind of message the birds and the dragon ever have for each other. In accordance with the astrological omens, Aries, I suggest you act like a far more benevolent version of Ratatoskr in the coming weeks. Be a feisty communicator who roams far and wide to spread uplifting gossip and energizing news.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You have a divine

mandate to love bigger and stronger and truer than ever before. It’s high time to freely give the gifts you sometimes hold back from those you care for. It’s high time to take full ownership of neglected treasures so you can share them with your worthy allies. It’s high time to madly cultivate the generosity of spirit that will enable you to more easily receive the blessings that can and should be yours. Be a brave, softhearted warrior of love!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) I love and respect Tinker Bell, Kermit the Frog, Shrek, Wonder Woman, SpongeBob SquarePants, Snow White, Road Runner, and Calvin and Hobbes. They have provided me with much knowledge and inspiration. Given the current astrological omens, I suspect that you, too, can benefit from cultivating your relationships with characters like them. It’s also a favorable time for you to commune with the spirits of Harriet Tubman, Leonardo da Vinci, Marie Curie or any other historical figures who inspire you. I suggest you have dreamlike conversations with your most interesting ancestors, as well. Are you still in touch with your imaginary friends from childhood? If not, renew acquaintances.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) “I never wish to be easily defined,” wrote Cancerian author Franz Kafka. “I’d rather float over other people’s minds as something fluid and non-perceivable; more like a transparent, paradoxically iridescent creature rather than an actual person.” Do you ever have that experience? I do. I’m a Crab like you, and I think it’s common among members of our tribe. For me, it feels liberating. It’s a way to escape people’s expectations of me and enjoy the independence of living in my fantasies. But I plan to do it a lot less in 2017, and I advise you to do the same. We should work hard at coming all the way down to earth.

We will thrive by floating less and being better grounded; by being less fuzzy and more solid; by not being so inscrutable, but rather more knowable.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Here’s my declaration:

“I hereby forgive, completely and permanently, all motorists who have ever irked me with their rude and bad driving. I also forgive, totally and forever, all tech-support people who have insulted me, stonewalled me, or given me wrong information as I sought help from them on the phone. I furthermore forgive, utterly and finally, all family members and dear friends who have hurt my feelings.” Now would be a fantastic time for you to do what I just did, Leo: Drop grudges, let go of unimportant outrage, and issue a blanket amnesty. Start with the easier stuff -- the complaints against strangers and acquaintances -- and work your way up to the allies you cherish.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) There are some authors who both annoy me and intrigue me.

Even though I feel allergic to the uncomfortable ideas they espouse, I’m also fascinated by their unique provocations. As I read their words, I’m half-irritated at their grating declarations, and yet greedy for more. I disagree with much of what they say, but feel grudgingly grateful for the novel perspectives they prod me to discov-

er. (Nobel Prize-winner Elias Canetti is one such author.) In accordance with the current astrological rhythms, Virgo, I invite you to seek out similar influences -- for your own good!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Now would be an excellent time to add new beauty to your home. Are there works of art or buoyant plants or curious symbols that would lift your mood?

Would you consider hiring a feng shui consultant to rearrange the furniture and accessories so as to enhance the energetic flow? Can you entice visits from compelling souls whose wisdom and wit would light up the place? Tweak your imagination so it reveals tricks about how to boost your levels of domestic bliss.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) In 2017, you will have unprecedented opportunities to re-imagine, revise and reinvent the story of your life.

You’ll be able to forge new understandings about your co-stars and reinterpret the meanings of crucial plot twists that happened once upon a time. Now check out these insights from author Mark Doty: “The past is not static, or ever truly complete; as we age we see from new positions, shifting angles. A therapist friend of mine likes to use the metaphor of the kind of spiral stair that winds up inside a lighthouse.

As one moves up that stair, the core at the center doesn’t change, but one continually sees it from another vantage point; if the past is a core of who we are, then our movement in time always brings us into a new relation to that core.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) The Tao Te Ching is a poetically philosophical text written by a Chinese sage more than 2 millennia ago.

Numerous authors have translated it into modern languages. I’ve borrowed from their work to craft a horoscope that is precisely suitable for you in the coming weeks. Here’s your highclass fortune cookie oracle: Smooth your edges, untangle your knots, sweeten your openings, balance your extremes, relax your mysteries, soften your glare, forgive your doubts, love your breathing, harmonize your longings, and marvel at the sunny dust.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) I recently discovered Tree of Jesse, a painting by renowned 20th-century artist Marc Chagall. I wanted to get a copy to hang on my wall. But as I scoured the Internet, I couldn’t find a single business that sells prints of it. Thankfully, I did locate an artist in Vietnam who said he could paint an exact replica. I ordered it, and was pleased with my new objet d’art. It was virtually identical to Chagall’s original. I suggest you meditate on taking a metaphorically similar approach, Capricorn. Now is a time when substitutes may work as well as what they replace.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) “It is often safer

to be in chains than to be free,” wrote Franz Kafka. That fact is worthy of your consideration in the coming weeks, Aquarius. You can avoid all risks by remaining trapped inside the comfort that is protecting you. Or you can take a gamble on escaping, and hope that the new opportunities you attract will compensate you for the sacrifice it entails. I’m not here to tell you what to do. I simply want you to know what the stakes are.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) “All pleasures are

in the last analysis imaginary, and whoever has the best imagination enjoys the most pleasure.”

So said 19th-century German novelist Theodor Fontane, and now I’m passing his observation on to you. Why? Because by my astrological estimates, you Pisceans will have exceptional imaginations in 2017: more fertile, fervent and freedom-loving than ever before. Therefore, your capacity to drum up pleasure will also be at an all-time high. There is a catch, however.

Your imagination, like everyone else’s, is sometimes prone to churning out superstitious fears.

To take maximum advantage of its bliss-inducing potential, you will have to be firm about steering it in positive directions.
