LETTERS Con Con Games

You overhear it in the hallways of a high school: Do you ever get the feeling that people are throwing a party and you aren’t invited? It’s every kid’s worry: being left out of something really important.

It should be your worry, too, because political insiders in Albany are planning a big bash under the guise of a constitutional convention. And, no, you aren’t invited.

Luckily, you can stop the whole shebang with a single vote. New York state does not need a constitutional convention. Vote no on Nov. 7.

Every 20 years voters in New York are asked whether the state should convene a delegation to revise the state’s constitution. If New Yorkers vote yes, so begins the process of selecting delegates to convene in Albany. Those delegates will scrutinize, edit and revise every aspect of the state’s constitution.

Who will be the delegates? Likely a hand-picked roster of lobbyists, political insiders and their ilk. While you may hear some refer to a “people’s convention,” history tells a different story.

The last convention in 1967 saw 186 delegates descend on the state Capitol.

According to the League of Women Voters, 62 percent of all delegates hailed from New York City and its suburbs.

Nearly 40 percent of all delegates were sitting legislators or judges, and 70 percent of all delegates belonged to the bar.

If you think Joe the Plumber will mount a successful campaign against Albany’s monied interests, I have a bridge across Seneca Lake that I can sell you real cheap. The convention, on the other hand, will not be.

Delegates to a constitutional convention, many of whom will already draw a salary from the state as sitting legislators, will collect additional salaries as delegates equal to the current legislative salary in Albany: $79,500 per year, plus a $159 per diem. And delegates will have the ability to hire spouses and kin for staff, all at the taxpayer’s expense.

The 1967 convention cost New York state taxpayers millions. Current estimates on a modern-day convention put the price tag in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

Money well spent? Hardly.

Despite all of the work and the millions of dollars spent on the 1967 convention, all of the recommended revisions to the state’s constitution were rejected by voters the following year. What a waste.

The boondoggle is even more egregious considering that a convention is wholly

unnecessary if we want to revise our state’s constitution. Voters can revise the state’s constitution without a convention.

The proof is on the ballot.

Next to the question about the constitutional convention on this year’s ballot, voters will find two proposed constitutional amendments. One constitutional amendment addresses a wildlife preserve in the Adirondacks and the other amendment would revoke pensions from New York state workers convicted of crimes.

Amendments proposed through the state Legislature pass both the Senate and Assembly for two consecutive years before receiving the voter’s seal of approval.

And, just like that, the constitution is amended, without the need for a costly convention.

So who wants a constitutional convention? Certainly not the Watkins Glen Faculty Association, nor our parent union, New York State United Teachers. The state constitution guarantees a sound, basic education to all citizens of New York state. We do not want to see this right under assault from those who want to reduce the state’s obligation to supporting public education.

It may come as no surprise that lobbyists and insiders are in favor of the convention, which makes good sense.

Imagine the billable hours for those tasked with revising the state’s constitution? It’s good work, if you can get it.

Let’s not give it to them.

Do you want Albany insiders to feast on your dime? The well-heeled and well-connected do not deserve a special party at our expense. Besides, there is already a process in place to revise the constitution.

You have a choice on Nov. 7: Vote no on the constitutional convention.

—Travis Durfee Watkins Glen

Con Con To Curb Corruption

Every 20 years, New Yorkers have the opportunity to vote for a constitutional convention. This allows voters to seize power from politicians by bringing necessary reforms to Albany. It is important to note that no constitutional convention has ever revoked rights or protections.

I am voting in favor of a constitutional convention on Nov. 7.

As an independent voter, I take the issue of closed primaries in New York very seriously. These are elections that are controlled by the parties yet paid for by the taxpayers. These absurd voting restrictions are unfair to the 3.2 million independent voters of New York. With a constitutional convention, we have the opportunity to reform the electoral process which bars these voters. Independents favor the creation of nonpartisan primaries to restore our broken democratic process.

As voters, we need more policy decision-making power. We need to create a stronger system of checks and balances between the people and the state Legislature. Holding a constitutional convention allows New Yorkers to actively participate in the progression of our state.

At a time when young people are resisting the heavily corrupted political machines, we must face the crucial need to stand up for true democracy. Voting yes to Prop 1 is our chance for self-governance. When both political parties oppose this, that should raise an immediate red flag. Democrats and Republicans protect their interests in the political process by joining forces to shut us out of public policy-making. The duopoly have raised $1.5 million with the help of unions to run a fear-mongering campaign.

The partisanship corruption is not working for citizens of New York. It is our responsibility to directly challenge the status quo by fighting for our democracy and voting yes for Prop 1 on Nov. 7.

—Caitlyn J. Parsons Scotia

Get The Lead Out

The fact that there is no safe level of lead exposure should be reason enough for lead abatement grant applications to be accepted and federally funded in the city of Syracuse, as well as throughout Onondaga County. However, if that is not reason enough, any of the other facts presented by the 2009-2015 study from the Journal of Pediatrics should suffice.

For example, the study shows that Syracuse has the highest number of cases of lead poisoning in children for those years.

Keep in mind that number (60,000) is only based on the cases that were brought to medical professionals and reported.

Lead paint was banned in 1978. There are a lot of homes in the city of Syracuse that were built prior to 1978, and most people are generally aware of how old their place of residence is. However, many people living in the city of Syracuse also rent their homes or apartments and are not the homeowners. Then the question becomes: Does the landlord do the paperwork and application process for a grant for lead abatement if the structure/ home they own is found to have lead? Or is it the responsibility of the renter?

Simply put, both parties need to be aware of the issue at hand, and both parties need to have some responsibility in how the abatement process proceeds.

Landlords, renters and owners need to work together to work out the kinks to this problem. After all, there is no safe level of lead exposure.

Climate Change: Just Say No

Climate change is one of the single biggest threats to our environment, our public health and our economy. Pumping carbon and methane emissions into the atmosphere is accelerating climate change and is responsible for more extreme weather.

New York state has spent billions of dollars over the past decade working to restore communities that have been devastated by severe flooding brought on by climate change.

I join the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) in calling on all state and local elected officials to say no to the oil and gas industry. Say no to the campaign contributions and personal gifts from corporate oil and gas giants, say no to permitting new fossil fuel infrastructure to be constructed in our state, and say no to climate change.

We need to invest in a clean, green, renewable energy economy that is beneficial to everyone’s health, well-being and livelihood. I applaud Attorney General Eric Schneiderman for investigating ExxonMobil and other climate change igniters. Now, let’s see the rest of our representatives and policymakers stand up against climate change.

Great Expectations

Jen Sorensen

On Aug. 7, 16-year-old Jack Bergeson of Wichita, Kansas, filed papers in Topeka to run for governor as a Democrat in the 2018 race. Bergeson, who won’t be able to vote in that election, said: “I thought, you know, let’s give the people of Kansas a chance. Let’s try something new.”

The candidate says he would “radically change” health care and would support legalizing medical marijuana, but he’s conservative on gun rights. Bryan Caskey, director of elections at the Kansas secretary of state’s office, said there is no law governing the qualifications for governor.

Bergeson’s running mate, 17-year-old Alexander Cline, will be 18 by the election and will get to vote.

Just Say Arrrggghh

Eva Pandora Baldursdottir, a member of the Icelandic parliament from the Pirate Party, was scheduled to take part in a debate on Oct. 12, according to UPI, but an unexpected injury lent her an especially jaunty look for the televised event: She had to conduct the debate wearing an eye patch after her toddler daughter scratched her eye. “Sometimes astounding things can happen at the worst time,” Baldursdottir shared on Facebook, along with a photo of her wearing the eye patch.

Continuing Crisis

There are 70 registered voters in McIntire, Iowa, but not one of them showed up to vote in a two-question special election on Aug. 1. Mitchell County deputy auditor Barbara Baldwin told reporters that even poll workers didn’t vote because none of them live in McIntire, which is about 130 miles northeast of Des Moines.

Campaign Follies

Incumbent mayoral candidate Charles Pender erected his campaign signs in Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, on Aug. 30, but when he woke up on Aug. 31, he found that they had been vandalized — with hot dogs.

CBC News reported that someone had

downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Apparently, Davis had lived in a house that formerly stood on that property in 1867, and the Daughters of the Confederacy placed the plaque there in 1967.

Davis moved to Canada after getting out of prison following the Civil War.

The Number Is Up

cut round holes in the signs and inserted hot dogs to look as if Pender was smoking a cigar. Pender called it “minor mischief” but noted that the signs are expensive. He called the police, but he feels it’s unlikely the frank bandit will be caught. He hopes to turn the incident into a good laugh with a “bun-raiser” later in the election season.

Oh, Canada

In the wake of violent protests in Charlottesville, Va., a plaque commemorating Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederate States from 1861 to 1865, was removed on Aug. 15 from the wall of a Hudson’s Bay department store — in

For the last time, Flight 666, traveling from Copenhagen, Denmark, to HEL (Finland’s Helsinki-Vantaa airport), took off on Friday the 13th of October. A Finnair spokesman said the flight, questionably numbered for the superstitious among us, has been making the trip for 11 years and has flown on Friday the 13th 21 times. “Today will actually be the final time that our AY666 flight flies to HEL,” a spokesman told The Telegraph. Some Finnair flights are getting new numbers, and the infamous route will be renumbered to 954. The flight arrived safely in Helsinki.

Boo Hoo

Residents of Rogersville, Mo., are protesting a high school fundraising plan to convert an abandoned funeral home into a haunted house, according to KY3.com, calling the idea distasteful and insensitive.

The Preston-Marsh Funeral Home had been scheduled for demolition, but the owner gave permission to students from Logan-Rogersville High School to use it at the end of October to raise money for a safe graduation celebration for seniors.

Students said they would use leftover equipment such as gurneys to enhance the spooky experience. But one Rogersville resident said doing so is “akin to opening a strip club in an old church.”

Oops!

In Vero Beach, Fla., a husband and wife made a hot bet on the Dallas Cowboys vs.

Green Bay Packers football game on Oct. 8: The loser would set their team’s jersey on fire. When the Packers won, the husband, 27, took his blue and silver Cowboys jersey outside and set fire to it. But, as he later told sheriff’s deputies, because he was drunk, he then tried to put the jersey back on, and that’s when things got heated. Family members pulled the burning jersey off the man and rushed him to the Indian River Medical Center. A witness told The Sebastian Daily “skin was hanging off his arm and back.”

He suffered second- and third-degree burns to his hand, arm and back.

Politics As Usual

Out of eight candidates for Detroit mayor in the Aug. 8 primary, half were convicted felons, The Detroit News reported. Three women and one man have convictions including gun crimes and assault with intent to commit murder.

“Black marks on your record show you have lived a little and have overcome some challenges,” opined political consultant Greg Bowens. Michigan law allows convicted felons to vote and run for office unless they are currently incarcerated, or if their offenses are fraud-related or constitute a breach of public trust. (Update: None of the felons advanced to the general election.)

Naked Truth

Summers are hot in Lawrence, Kan., and Christopher Steven Carlson, 34, of Riley took advantage of the warm temperatures on July 30 to stroll down a sidewalk in the busy college town in his birthday suit — twice. Police first arrested Carlson around 2 p.m. in downtown Lawrence for indecent exposure, after which he paid his $500 fine and was released. He caught a taxi from the Douglas County Jail back to the downtown area, where he stiffed the driver, left his clothes in the car and resumed his in-the-buff constitutional. Local business owner Meg Heriford said: “Our customers were not alarmed. It was more like, ‘Hey, there’s a naked guy.’”

Under the Influence

Police in Slidell, La., stopped a “car full of drunks” on July 8 and arrested the driver for driving while intoxicated. The car’s passengers rode home in a taxi, but one of the women then drove back to the police station to bail out the driver. Slidell officers arrested the woman for DWI, and she joined her friend in jail. “Lesson of the day,” Slidell officers posted on their Facebook page: “Don’t drive drunk to a police station in order to bail out your drunk friend!”

Polly Wants A Ladder

Fire department dispatchers in Branson, Mo., must have thought they were being punked on July 22, when they received a call to rescue a bird from a tree. But it was no joke. A ladder truck was dispatched to rescue a parrot that had escaped and became tangled in its leash 50 feet up in a tree. Bonus: The firefighter who braved the 50-foot climb was Colt Boldman.

This Bud’s For You

Police in Swansea, Ill., suspect the heir to a brewery fortune has graduated from driving drunk to flying high. August Adolphus Busch IV, 53, landed his helicopter around noon on July 10 in an office complex parking lot outside St. Louis.

Police and FAA investigators were still

trying to determine why he had landed there and whether any aviation laws had been broken when they were called back to the parking lot around 8 p.m., where Busch, appearing to be intoxicated, was trying unsuccessfully to take off. Swansea police reported that Busch failed field sobriety tests but passed a breath test, and after they secured a warrant, Busch was taken to a local hospital for blood tests.

Also found in the helicopter: four loaded guns, several prescription pill bottles and eight dogs.

From Bad to Worse

Two women in Arlington, Texas, called police for help on July 10 as a mentally ill man doused himself with gasoline in preparation to commit suicide. When responding officers began talking with the distraught man, he poured more gasoline on himself and appeared to be holding a lighter in his hand. Hoping to subdue him, one of the officers used his Taser on the man and the gasoline ignited, engulfing him in flames. Officers wrapped him in blankets and removed him from the house. His family reports he was severely burned, and at press time he was in critical condition.

By Cody Bateson

OLD AND NEW PLAYERS MIX KICKS FOR SILVER KNIGHTS SEASON It’s a Saturday morning in the CNY Family Sports Centre on Jones Road, home of the Syracuse Silver Knights professional soccer team.

Men in a variety of collegiate and club T-shirts with neon-colored practice jerseys draped over them are sprinting all over the field. Between the soft thumps of a soccer ball being kicked, a faint hum can be heard from the whirring fan blades overhead. The occasional shout for a teammate interrupts what otherwise is a very rhythmic and peaceful environment.

The buzzer from the shot clock sounds and a whistle from the coach quickly follows. The day of combine drilling is over. Once everyone is dismissed, small clusters of groups form across the field. Many discuss their future roles with the team. The roster is not yet finalized, but one thing is certain: The outlook for the Syracuse Silver Knights’ seventh season is optimistic.

Last season the Knights missed the playoffs with a record of eight wins and 12 losses. “We had a disappointing season last year and our winloss record was poor as well,” admitted general manager Tommy Tanner. “We lost eight games by one goal and a lot of them we had the lead going into the fourth quarter.”

Tanner said nine players have signed contracts that have been approved by the MASL. Confirmed signings include Darren Toby, Jake Schindler, Joey Tavernese and Kenardo Forbes.

Head coach Ryan Hall said last year’s captain Bozidar Jelovac has also signed with the team, a defensive centerpiece who contributed 7 goals and 6 assists in the 2016-2017 season.

“We have a lot of young, talented guys and that’s kind of what we want,” Hall said. “Mix that with our older veterans and you get a good, cohesive, blue-collar team.”

Schindler is a proven player who has been key on defense the past two seasons for the Silver Knights. Tavernese was the club’s leading scorer last season with 26 goals and also managed eight assists, while Forbes led the team in assists with 21 and netted 21 goals as well. And there’s also fan-favorite Toby, the Trinidad and Tobago native who has played for the Silver Knights for the past six seasons.

Other signings include midfielders Patrick Thompson and Ben Ramin, both returning for their second season with the Silver Knights. Joining the ranks for the first time is Logan Roberts, a local who played at Binghamton University.

“We’ve actually lost two dominant players from our team last year, Antonio Manfut and Moises Gonzalez,” Hall said. “They both went to the same team down in Rio Grande Valley in Texas, so those are two big shoes that have to be filled.”

Manfut had a whopping 21 goals and nine assists for the Silver Knights last season. Gonzalez had a very similar and respectable stat line with 15 goals and nine assists. The pair were involved in nearly 40 percent of the team’s 137 goals scored last season.

To fill those spots, Hall said the team has begun looking north of the border, in territory where the Silver Knights have never recruited before.

Three Canadians who “are of a high level” are trying out for the team.

“A lot of teams head south (in search of talent) in Mexico and Brazil,” Hall said, “but Canada is producing a tremendous amount of futsal and indoor players. We found some really quality players that we’re excited about.”

There were also several Syracuse University players that were drafted

by Major League Soccer teams who were present at the combine. Nick Bibbs and Liam Callahan were two of the standouts that have since signed.

Andrew Coughlin, a Baldwinsville native, has established himself as the first-team goalkeeper who played in 15 of the 20 games last season.

Tanner confirmed Coughlin is a lock for the season.

Coughlin played at SU for his first two years and transferred to Canisius College for his final two. He was given his first shot to play for the Silver Knights during the 2015-2016 season when both veteran Bryan O’Quinn and backup keeper Matt Perrella were out with injuries.

“Last year I came back and we didn’t get the results we needed, but it’s fun to play and I don’t think there’s a better job than to get paid to play soccer,” Coughlin said. “That’s why I’m back this year. I’m hoping to

bring a trophy to Syracuse if we can and I think we have some players here that have changed things up a little bit, so I’m really excited for the season.”

The Silver Knights face a tough opening schedule for the 2017-2018 season, with two road games in California against the Turlock Express on Friday, Nov. 3, and the San Diego Sockers on Sunday, Nov. 5.

“It’s always tough going away from home and trying to get results, especially at a place like San Diego, which is one of the storied MASL (Major Arena Soccer League) teams,” Coughlin said.

“Road trips also build camaraderie with spending so much time with your teammates. It’s definitely fun to go and travel with the guys.”

Syracuse will have two additional games this year, bringing the regular season to 22 games, which was implemented by the MASL for the upcoming campaign. The Knights will have their fair share of traveling the first half of the season, with seven of their first 11 games on the road.

“If we can come out of that road stretch at least at .500 and then head into our long string of home games, we’ll be in good shape,” Hall said.

The Baltimore Blast is as strong as ever after coming off a championship-winning season.

“Baltimore is always at the top of the table and they stay pretty consistent, usually adding only one or two players every year,” Hall said. “For the most part it’s everybody else trying to catch up with them.”

Coughlin recently viewed footage from a home game against the Baltimore Blast last season in preparation for this year. He believes the Silver Knights have the potential to hang with the strongest teams in the league.

“For three quarters of the game, we were the better team,” Coughlin said. “Baltimore didn’t have a lead in that game until the very end, so it just shows that we can compete with the best.

Now we just have to make sure that every time we show up it’s business. If we approach every game like it’s a championship and we play with our hearts on our sleeves, we can show the fans, show everybody, that we’re a team that can compete for a title.”

The rest of the Eastern Division only got tougher for the Silver Knights, however, with the Harrisburg Heat and Florida Tropics making several important acquisitions in the off-season.

Harrisburg brought in several foreign players who are expected to make some noise this year.

And Florida signed striker Mauricio Salles who previously played for the Rochester Lancers and has a record of being a dominant indoor soccer player.

“I’m a little bit biased, but I think, bar none, the Eastern Division is top to bottom the hardest in the league,” Hall said.

The Syracuse Silver Knights’ first home game kicks off Friday, Nov. 10, 7:05 p.m., against the Ontario Fury at the Onondaga County War Memorial Arena, 800 S. State St. Tickets are $10 and $17. Visit oncenter.org for details. SNT

BODY AND MIND

By Mike Jaquays

MASSAGE AND WELLNESS METHODS CAN HELP TREAT ILLNESSES

A woman’s aid to another in need has now turned into an outreach aiming to bring better health to people across the country.

When 14-year breast cancer survivor Patti McGee was looking for a way to rebuild her upper body strength after a partial mastectomy, plus lose the weight she gained after chemotherapy and radiation treatments, she sought out the help of personal trainer Lisa Coleman in 2013.

Coleman encouraged McGee to combine mind, body and spirit along with healthy nutritional practices to reach her goals.

McGee, a longtime supporter of others going through their own cancer procedures, wants to now share that experience with others in need.

Coleman herself has had her own health challenges. She was diagnosed with Graves’ disease and Hoshimoto’s thyroiditis causing hyperthyroidism in November 2015, going quickly from “an avid athlete to a very sick individual,” she recalled.

Coleman developed her own approach to reversing that autoimmune disease by using food for her medicine, along with supplementation and the power of the word of God. Now, she says she enjoys perfect health naturally. Coleman’s own better health success has driven her to encourage others through her training to restore their own health and strength.

Their mutual commitment to reach out to other people has inspired Coleman and McGee to join together to give their clients an extensive range of alternative medical offerings. Currently, they are working together on motivational speaking seminars. Their first wellness seminars were held at SUNY Brockport in 2015, and McGee said they were a big success.

They hosted their first-ever “How to Eat,Treat and Beat Illness” seminar on Oct. 19 at Coleman’s Revision Wellness studio, located in the lower level of the A Touch Above Wellness Spa, 2605 Brewerton Road, Mattydale. They also began a “Life After Breast Cancer” seminar series on Oct. 26; the first topic focused on rebuilding upper body strength and scar tissue release.

McGee, a licensed massage therapist, is the owner of Time for Reflection Massage Therapy for 10 years and author of the book Hope: An Inspiring A-Z Guide for Cancer Patients, Survivors and Caregivers, written to help others along on their own journeys with the disease. Although she took the standard medicinal path when first diagnosed with cancer, McGee said she wishes at the time she had the information she does now — including better knowledge of alternative remedies like essential oils, a proper diet with plenty of greens, and massage for stress relief.

“I did the traditional medicine first because that’s all I was told about,” she recalled. “It wasn’t until later that I sought out the natural remedies to stay healthy.

Now my main goal is trying to get to other people before they get sick.”

She says one of the most rewarding parts of her massage therapy and trainings

is inspiring others to gain new peace of mind by helping relieve them from the pain from surgery.

Coleman is a certified fitness trainer with more than 25 years’ experience in fitness and nutrition coaching. She was a unit physical trainer to the United States military for eight years, and strength and conditioning coach for the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams at Hamilton College in Clinton for six years.

She is the principal owner and trainer of Revision Wellness, where for the past three years she has encouraged better total wellness for the spirit, soul and body with personal training, group fitness classes for all levels, nutrition seminars and life mentoring.

McGee said her own strengths are in encouraging clients to develop better flexibility and be able to relieve the pain of sore muscles. She teaches about proper diet and nutrition, and how to relax by facing sources of stress and finding ways to lessen their effect. Coleman is an “incredible motivator,” McGee said, in mak-

ing her commit to a healthier lifestyle.

McGee herself is “an expert in her field,” Coleman said.

Coleman cited her rigidity with her clients as one of her main strengths, likely coming from training military personnel in the past. She says she runs a “tight ship,” and has even been referred to as an Iron Maiden, and not for a love of heavy metal music. She maintains a dedicated faith in God’s plan for her, prompting her to extend her own healthy life practices to others. It’s a three-part concentration of spirit, mind and body that Coleman seeks to make better in her clients, she said.

“We need to work on all three,” she said. “Someone can be disconnected from one but healthy in all others, but that isn’t wellness.”

McGee said no one should shy away from any of their trainings and seminars because of any perceived age restrictions. “It’s never too late to start living a healthier life,” she said. “I didn’t start until I was 50.

Coleman and her husband, Bobby Coleman, have four children and four grandsons, and travel nationwide sharing their insights into better health. Her Revision Wellness studio is open Mondays through Fridays, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturdays, 9 a.m. to noon.

CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION GAMBLE WORTH THE RISK If you are a citizen of New York, you are asked this question every 20 years: “Shall there be a convention to revise the constitution and amend the same?”

That question is one of three statewide referendums that will appear on the back of every ballot on Tuesday, Nov. 7. Every 20 years, New York voters are asked whether a state constitutional convention should take place in Albany to see if anything should be changed or added to that document of laws and rights.

Should a majority of New Yorkers vote “yes” on Election Day, a process will begin to select 204 delegates: three from every state Senate district and 15 at-large.

Voters will select their delegates in the 2018 midterm elections, and those delegates will then convene in Albany in the spring of 2019 to discuss what changes, if any, should be made to the constitution.

The last time a convention was held was in 1967. And the last time one produced actual constitutional changes was back in 1938. We are well overdue for some changes — and 2019 should be the year for them.

A convention would give the people of New York a rare but timely opportunity to enact the necessary and common-sense changes that the state Legislature simply refuses to do themselves.

A constitutional convention could give much needed freedom to local governments and municipalities from some harsh Albany mandates, giving communities a

better ability to decide on their own taxes, school governance and minimum wages as they see fit for their individual needs.

A constitutional convention could help reform the state’s court system, where limited-jurisdiction courts cause overwhelming case loads and prevent the accused from receiving swift justice.

The current system is so inefficient that a special state commission found that more than $500 million in state money is wasted every year because of it.

A constitutional convention could help overhaul the state’s antiquated voting laws. It’s preposterous that in order to vote in the state’s primary races next June, you had to be registered three weeks ago. It’s preposterous that New York doesn’t have early voting or automatic registration measures in the 21st century.

And it’s preposterous that the country’s fourth most populous state has the sixth worst voter turnout rate in a presidential election year.

While a convention could easily bring about these needed reforms, the most important reason is to reform the government itself. After 17 years of watching more than 30 of their colleagues be accused, indicted or convicted of corruption charges, including the top leaders of both chambers in the same year, the Legislature continues to fail to initiate any actual self-policing.

A constitutional convention could cement in place thorough measures to stop those who are using public service as a way to serve themselves. It could impose term limits on legislators, or at least legislators in leadership roles. This would help lawmakers focus on more than just getting re-elected and would prevent those in high positions from becoming so entrenched in power that it emboldens them to commit illegal acts.

It could overhaul the state’s campaign finance laws so legislators can’t use campaign money to pay for trips to Cancun (as one did). It could deflate big money’s influence on elections by closing the loophole in the state’s campaign finance laws that treats limited liability corporations as individuals.

It could make the Legislature a full-time job and ban legislators’ outside income, cutting off avenues from external forces that often can and do influence policy.

It could establish a permanent independent commission to investigate corruption in any area of the state government. This commission would feature members who are not chosen by the governor or members of the Legislature. And it would be a commission that Gov. Andrew Cuomo can’t shut down at his convenience

because they are investigating him (which he has done).

It could create an independent process for realigning legislative districts to eliminate gerrymandering. It could also reinvent the awful state budget process we go through, ending the ridiculous yearly dance where the governor and the Legislature’s two leaders negotiate the majority of the state’s spending plan quietly behind closed doors.

Needless to say, just because these things can be done at a constitutional convention doesn’t guarantee that these things would be done. Indeed, New Yorkers who oppose a convention do so because they believe one would make changes — just not the kind they want.

And their concerns are sound.

Perhaps the biggest reason people oppose a convention comes from those in the labor and education communities.

Public employees fear that opening up the constitution could put their hard-earned pensions at risk, which are guaranteed to them by the constitution. However, that seems unlikely, given that pensions are also protected by federal contract law.

Others are worried that a convention could alter the Adirondack Park’s “Forever Wild” Forest Preserve clause, opening up millions of acres of protected land to development.

Yet any proposed amendment must be ratified by voters to be added to the constitution. It’s hard to believe that any referendum proposing elimination of pensions or long-protected forest land wouldn’t be struck down overwhelmingly by citizens.

The most legitimate reason to fear a convention regards the delegates that would go to Albany on our behalf. Since it is much harder for average people to become a delegate, it is possible that those representing us in a convention could be the same pawns of special interest groups that already control the Legislature. In the 1967 convention, two-thirds of the delegates were lawyers, 20 percent were judges and many were beholden to the lobbyists of the time.

A convention is a gamble, but it’s worth the risk. Albany is broken and we have here the opportunity to fix it.

While there are certain outside factors that would certainly influence such an event, we control it. We decide every 20 years if we want to alter the constitution. We decide who the delegates are that would represent us at a convention.

And after they have made their proposed amendments, we get the final say in whether or not they become part of our state’s most cherished document.

That’s about as close to “for the people and by the people” as we can get. Vote “yes” to a constitutional convention on Nov. 7 if you think New York can do better. We cannot afford to just let it pass us by. SNT

THE CON CON:

PROS AND CONS Political cartoons from 1938 poke fun at the constitutional convention ballot

New York voters will weigh in on the decision for a constitutional convention

T

By Walt Shepperd

wenty years ago on Central Issues, the WCNY-Channel 24 public affairs program, host Dan Cummings asked Lee Plavoukos, then associate counsel to the speaker of the New York State Assembly, if we should have a constitutional convention. A provision in the New York state constitution mandates that every 20 years citizens decide whether they wish to convene a convention to revise and amend that document.

Plavoukos described the endeavor as romantic. “It’s a great idea,” he told Cummings then, “but it’s not worth the risks.” Today he thinks we have no other choice.

In a telephone interview, state Sen. John DeFrancisco, currently touring to determine the prospects for a gubernatorial campaign, dismissed the concept as having “very little likelihood of success.” He noted that good government groups may see a constitutional convention as the only way to deal with current corruption in Albany, with the election of three delegates from each state Senate district together with 15 statewide delegates bringing fresh faces into the political system. “But realistically,” he observes, “who are the people most likely to get elected?”

Former City Hall lawyer Joseph Bergh, whose practice often included constitutional issues, views the convention as an opportunity to address such issues as municipal finance and the improvement of the court system. He agrees with Plavoukos that it could provide a platform for settling the issue of consolidation of government services.

“The last time we had a constitutional convention,” he points out, “the world was a lot different.” That time, which Plavoukos describes as a distant mirror of today, was 1938, a time when traditional political values — freedom of speech, religion, and the electoral process — were under attack from both the right and the left.

That year the voters approved the convention, 1,413,604 to 1,190,275. But civic attitude toward the process can be gauged by the total vote on the proposition, which was 3 million less than that cast on the governor’s race on the same ballot. Voters rejected the concept in 1957, 1977 and 1997.

That year, despite controlling the governor’s office, the state Senate and New York City, Democrats failed to win control of the convention. The final tally was 92 Republicans, 75 Democrats and one member of the American Labor Party. A special convention was called by the state Legislature in 1967.

The 1938 version attracted an all-star lineup of then-prominent politicos. Frederick Crane, chief judge of the Court of Appeals, was elected convention president. Also on hand were four-time governor Al Smith, Sen. Robert Wagner, Congressman Hamilton Fish and urban planner and power broker Robert Moses.

During a five-month session, the delegates debated and enacted proposals both progressive and traditional. Conflict over an “exclusionary rule,” prohibiting the use of any evidence obtained by an illegal search or seizure, previewed that year’s race for

governor. Thomas Dewey’s arguments against the rule prevailed, but Herbert Lehman beat him that November.

If voters approve a convention for next year, they may be providing a stage for a confrontation between environmentalists and developers over the future of Adirondack Park. Unions fear their right to organize, to receive the prevailing rate on construction projects and to bargain collectively might be adversely affected courtesy of powerful special interests.

And then there are the strange bedfellows. Advocates for Planned Parenthood and the National Right to Life Committee finally agree on one thing: Both groups oppose the constitutional convention. The New York State Conservative Party and major public employee unions view the prospect of a constitutional convention as a dangerous waste of time and money.

The New York State Teachers Union is warning members and the general public that the current education system would be compromised by private school tuition vouchers, tax credits and charter schools, all made possible courtesy of the constitutional convention.

There is, however, one issue that everyone concerned can agree on: Albany has a longstanding tradition of government corruption. “After I left Albany,” Plavoukos recalls, “I realized that politics is all the organized crime we can agree on.” Since 2000, almost three dozen members of the state Legislature have faced criminal charges resulting in their resignation or removal. Several good government groups view the convention as an opportunity to address the issue of ethics reform.

The convention could create a full-time legislature, with term limits and a ban on any outside income. Also possible is establishing the right of every New Yorker to health care, including reproductive rights protections. Currently, the state constitution is silent on those issues.

“Right now we see the far right and left pulling the political spectrum so far apart there is no longer any common ground for compromise,” Plavoukos projects. “Each side points fingers at each other as to the reason why nothing is getting done. Call it institutionalized failure. A constitutional convention could provide the vehicle to bring policymakers back to the middle, long enough to do something positive, with the rest of us looking over their shoulder.” SNT syracusenewtimes.com | 11.1.17 - 11.7.17

GREEN

PASTURES A sustainable Syracuse is the goal of Green Party mayoral candidate Howie Hawkins

By Walt Shepperd

G

reen Party mayoral candidate Howie Hawkins remembers something about each of the 22 campaigns he has run, from district councilor to governor. Since 1993, his efforts have been to raise and disseminate information about issues from economic justice to environmental reform. As his vote grew over the past decade, they have also been about winning in the local races.

This time he says calmly, “I could win this one.” Given the five-candidate general election, the 35 percent to 48 percent he has received in his last four local races, including 4th District councilor and city auditor, makes him a contender.

The nontraditional ballot lineup could also alter the attitudes of many voters in the past who have maintained openly that if Hawkins was a Democrat, they would vote for him. He also recalls significant numbers who tell him straight up, “I wanted to vote for you, but I voted for the Democrat to stop the Republican who I feared more.” With five viable candidates, this lesser-evil dynamic will not come into play.

Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay area, Hawkins moved to the area from New England, where he was working construction, to take a job organizing cooperatives. When the funding ran out, he went to work for UPS unloading trucks.

A founder of the national Green Party in 1984, he joined the Syracuse chapter upon his arrival in 1991. He recalls Green Party meetings at Blodgett School to discuss building repairs and educational improvement; those issues, he says, are still crying out for serious attention today.

After a decade he returned as Green Party chair, which means, he says, more work, not more power over decisions, which are typically made by the membership or the coordinating committee it elects at biannual conventions. He is active in his neighborhood as treasurer of both the Southside Community Coalition and the Eat to Live Food Cooperative.

In the opening line of his stump speech, Hawkins says,” I want to be the next mayor of Syracuse, not the last mayor of Syracuse.” He fears city bankruptcy and a state financial control board that will dissolve the city into a countywide metropolitan government.

“We’ve got to find the money for fiscal sustainability,” he insists.

His top priorities include a progressive local tax on commuter and resident income, and getting the state to increase its revenue sharing to at least cover its mandates on city government. If he wins, he would make sure that city residents and minorities get their fair share of city-funded jobs in municipal departments and with contractors. He would also push for public power and broadband to lower the cost of living and doing business in the city.

What is your job description for the mayor of Syracuse?

The job starts with the candidacy. A mayoral candidate should offer the voters a strategic vision

Howie Hawkins: “We need to increase revenues so the city doesn’t go broke and has the money it needs to make the city work.”

for where you want to take the city and an action plan for getting there. And then if elected, your job is to do what you said you would do.

I call my strategic vision Sustainable Syracuse.

That means a sustainable prosperity that lifts up poor and working-class people and retains and attracts middle-class people and businesses.

It means fiscal sustainability. We need to increase revenues so the city doesn’t go broke and has the money it needs to make the city work.

That means progressive tax reforms, such as a progressively graduated city income tax on residents and commuters. It means taking the lead in organizing a coalition of upstate cities and towns to push for increased state revenue sharing so the state at least pays for its unfunded mandates.

It means following up on the Consensus Commission’s proposed Municipal Development Fund for countywide property tax sharing. And as we get these and other progressive tax reforms, we should cut the regressive property and sales taxes that hit poor, working class, and retired people the hardest.

Sustainable Syracuse means economic sustainability. Economic development should prioritize community-owned enterprises, where the wealth we create is anchored to our community by democratic ownership structures. We should develop worker cooperatives where workers own their own jobs, receive the full fruits of the labor, and build their wealth instead of having the wealth they create by their labor siphoned away as profits to absentee owners.

Sustainable Syracuse also means ecological sustainability based on public infrastructure for water, sewage, transportation, heat and electricity, and broadband. Public infrastructure provides the public avenues for private commerce. It should be provided at cost by public utilities, not for profit by private rent-extracting monopolies. It should be democratic, so, for example, with a public power utility we have the power to choose a rapid transition to 100 percent affordable, renewable, clean energy.

Should we metropolitanize city and county governments?

Yes, but not the way the Consensus Commission proposed. Their consolidation governing proposal reduces the city to a special tax district to pay for our segregated schools and the retirement benefits of former city workers. The Consensus Commission’s winner-take-all electoral model will entrench a suburban and rural white majority with all the effective power. It would be a consolidation of segregation.

But precisely because metropolitan government is the only way to desegregate our community by race and class, we need metropolitan government to address school and housing segregation.

It’s also how we can become economically and ecologically sustainable. Economically, because with a united community and tax base, economic development anywhere will benefit metro citizens everywhere. Ecologically, because it’s the only way to have an enforceable land use plan that can protect natural habitat and farmland and solve the interconnected problems of suburban sprawl and inner-city decay.

So I advocate a metropolitan government based on the principles of federalism and proportional representation. Federalism means the towns and the city remain and retain important local powers, such as local planning and zoning decisions within a metropolitan land use plan. Proportional representation means each party gets representation in the metropolitan legislative body in proportion to the vote they receive. Proportional representation gives the ethnic and political minorities their fair share of representation and power instead of reducing them to powerless minorities, as winnertake-all elections do. The executive offices should be elected by ranked-choice instant-runoff voting instead of the plurality-wins system we now have so that the officer elected is actually the most preferred by the voters.

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

The next mayor should be a champion for consolidating school districts. It is the only way to desegregate our schools.

Desegregation of schools by race and class is the only proven way to improve poorly performing schools and close the race and class achievement gaps. All the research and experience since the Brown v. Board of Education decision in 1954 and the Civil Rights Act in 1964 show this conclusively. And class is the key variable. If you desegregate by race but integrate only the poor of all races, all the problems of poverty that come into the schools remain.

Integration by race and class substantially improves the academic achievement of lower-income students, with the achievement gap between working-class and middle-class students nearly eliminated. To a lesser degree, integration also improves the achievement levels of middle-class students. So the affluent suburbs have nothing to fear, and gains to be had, from integration.

Adequate and equitable school funding, the quality of facilities and equipment, teacher expec-

tations, and class size all help. The test, punish and privatize agenda leading to private charter schools is about profits, not education. Nothing has come close to improving educational outcomes for all students than desegregation by race and class. It is time to stop pretending otherwise.

Martin Luther King spoke to Syracuse in 1965 and warned that de facto segregation was growing in the North. He said it would doom generations of children to inferior segregated schools.

He forecast where we have ended up. It is time to finally act to end this needless iniquity.

What should we do with Route 81?

We should tear down the elevated highway and rebuild the 15th Ward around the old community street grid as a residential and commercial neighborhood that is mixed-income, mixed-use, ecologically designed, and well-served by public transportation.

I called for this in my 2005 mayoral campaign for a Sustainable Syracuse as the alternative to tax breaks for Destiny USA. It is an opportunity to create a walkable, convenient, environmentally enjoyable, and socially equitable neighborhood in the heart of our city. It will also be a major increase in the city property tax base on prime real estate.

I like the mixed-income, mixed-use planning for the public housing neighborhood south of Adams Street that Bill Simmons at the Syracuse Housing Authority has put together. That kind of planning needs to be extended to the I-81 corridor north of Adams Street up to I-690. I would insist that people displaced by the new construction from public and other housing in the area have the first right of return and that there be sufficient affordable housing for them to do so. I would also push for the commercial development to emphasize opportunities for worker and consumer cooperatives.

Only 12 percent of I-81 traffic is through traffic.

That traffic can go on 481. The 88 percent of I-81 traffic that is going into and out of the city will find the street grid is more convenient because the bottlenecks at the current on- and off-ramps at each end of the elevated section will be replaced with many more route options.

The point should be to move people, not cars.

We need much better public transportation to move people more affordably and conveniently, and to reduce the enormous waste of prime city land on parking.

Continued from page 12 What needs to be developed in the center city? Who should be doing it and who should be paying for it?

Right now private developers are planning the city. The city mainly reacts to their proposals. We should turn that around. The city should be doing the planning and the developers should be bidding on doing parts of the plan.

In terms of housing development, we need inclusionary zoning so that all new housing projects have a mix of affordable and market rate units and we begin to reduce housing segregation.

In terms of commercial development, we need to bring back the old basic Main Street businesses to downtown and the neighborhood business districts: the grocery stores, clothing stores, hardware stores, variety stores, restaurants, coffee shops, insurance agents, lawyers, doctors, dentists and so forth. Those kinds of businesses were pushed out by predatory franchise operations and moved to the suburban malls that are now withering in the age of internet shopping.

I propose a municipal development bank with an entrepreneurial department and a mission of planning, advising and financing such businesses, especially

cooperatives and owner-operated small businesses.

I will also seek a partnership with the city’s largest employers, the eds and meds on University Hill, to develop worker cooperatives that serve their markets. Cleveland has done this. An industrial laundry, an urban greenhouse farm, and a solar panel manufacturer and installer have been developed as worker cooperatives in the low-income African American neighborhood surrounding the Cleveland Clinic and Case Western University. University Hill next to the south and near east sides is a similar situation. Coyne Laundry is now sitting vacant on the South Side. The opportunities are there.

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

Actually, we don’t have the poorest communities of color in the country. U.S. Census data will show you that there are hundreds of rural and urban census tracts with incomes that are below half of what our city’s poorest census tracts have.

Go to the Black Belt South, the Chicano Southwest, the Indian reservations, and Appalachia and other white rural regions and you’ll see people even poorer than we are.

But what we do have in metropolitan Syracuse is a higher concentration of

When you need labwork, Camillus is convenient

blacks and Latinos living in high-poverty census tracts than any of the other 100 largest metro regions in the United States.

We also have the fifth highest concentration of whites living in those same high-poverty census tracts. Which means we have the most segregation by class as well as race of all the nation’s cities.

So we’ve got to desegregate by race and class: in schools, housing, employment and business contracting. The fastest way to get good jobs to low-income people is to help them get their fair share of city-funded jobs in city departments and with city contractors. The city needs to update and strengthen with goals and timetables the Equal Employment Opportunity Program, a city ordinance enacted in 1973.

A key update to the ordinance should be a community hiring hall where city residents can go for job counseling, placement, training, and support services to help them qualify, get into, and stay in training programs and jobs. The updated ordinance should require city departments and contractors to hire qualified workers from the community hiring hall if they cannot meet minority and city resident employment goals from their own labor sources.

The long-term anti-poverty strategy should be developing community-owned businesses, particularly worker coopera-

tives where worker-owners can build up their wealth because the profits go to the workers as income and equity in proportion to the labor they contribute instead of to absentee owners.

The municipal development bank is designed to develop these kinds of businesses. The Syracuse Industrial Development Agency and the Syracuse Economic Development Corporation should also help. The current goals for Minority and Women Owned Business Enterprises for city contractors are 9 percent for MBEs and 6 percent for WBEs. The city should raise these goals to adjust to the actual demographics of the city. SIDA should introduce MWBE goals for projects it supports with tax breaks, grants, and bond financing. SIDA should also add goals for hiring city residents and minorities on its projects. Its current definition of local is a nine-county area. SEDCO has focused in recent years on upscale development in downtown Syracuse. It should now prioritize support for owner-operated businesses in the city’s struggling neighborhood business districts.

EVERSON SHOW CELEBRATES MATERNAL INSTINCTS

Brownie points: TR Ericsson’s mother is represented in a 1954 snapshot “Susie (with ice cream)” for the Everson Museum show I Was Born To Bring You Into This World.

T

he Everson Museum of Art’s new exhibit TR Ericsson: I Was Born To Bring You Into This World challenges viewers on several levels. The display presents a range of items, including found objects, video, official documents and photos and letters from the artist’s family archive, yet doesn’t express a straight-on narrative. It also investigates issues Ericsson has explored in various formats since his mother’s suicide in 2003 but doesn’t suggest that resolution is at hand.

Although the show probes a specific family history, that’s not the end game. The exhibition asks viewers to consider a general perspective on family lives: How do we tell the story of our own families?

Ericsson’s solo exhibit works with basic facts previously discussed elsewhere, in a show at the Cleveland Museum of Art and in the 2015 book Crackle & Drag. Susan Ericsson, who had dealt with depression, alcoholism and multiple sclerosis, committed suicide at age 57. The information about her passing is communicated sadly and starkly through a one-page autopsy report filed by the coroner of Lake County in northeast Ohio.

That’s only one example of the exhibition’s directness. It displays three urns holding the cremated remains of Ericsson’s mother and her parents. There is text referencing violent behavior

by Lynn Robinson, the artist’s maternal grandfather.

At the same time, the exhibition tells a complex tale, offering multiple glimpses into TR Ericsson’s upbringing: his baby diary, a photo of him as a young boy, an image of his mother and him nicely dressed, perhaps for a portrait. In another photo, taken at a party, he wears a Groucho Marx mask and his mother is in a flapper-like outfit.

Ericsson has spent many hours not only reviewing the family archive but also looking for creative ways to present objects. A photo of him posing as a scarecrow as a young boy is reproduced and seems almost elegant. “Where Are You, Mom,” a plaintive statement from TR Ericsson, is displayed in white silkscreen ink on black muslin.

Some of the works are quite straightforward. One text, written by the artist, recalls a conversation in which his mother said, “I was born to bring you into this world. My only purpose in this life was to bring you into this world.”

In a letter, Susan Ericsson speaks of many regrets, including the fact that her father didn’t send her to a teacher’s college. She says that her son is one thing that will never be taken away from her.

The show, which spans two gallery spaces, covers other territory. It moves across generations by displaying images of Susan Ericsson wearing a Brownie uniform and eating an ice cream bar, and of her parents. There are copies of birth certificates for all three of them. A newspaper article from the early 1960s reports that the administration for South High School in Willoughby,

Ohio, was cracking down on students wearing bouffant hairdos and excessive makeup.

A more current image depicts a figure at Coney Island looking out over the ocean on a cloudy day.

It’s moody and contemplative.

That work, and the other pieces, make up an exhibit that’s not easily accessible. There is no series of clues leading to a conclusion. However, the show effectively communicates several themes, starting with Susan Ericsson’s love for her son, and his love for her.

Moreover, she emerges as a complex personality, one difficult to explain.

In addition, the show engages the idea of a family archive. Lynn Robinson’s birth certificate is partially illegible, and a photo of his wife is fading away. That deterioration contrasts with a digital age in which it’s possible to store images and documents online. And the exhibit itself functions as a radical departure. TR Ericsson makes his presentation in a public arena, in the context of a museum venue.

Finally, the exhibition inspires thinking about how we remember close relatives and friends, how we interpret events in our lives. It’s deeply emotional and insightful, yet another phase in a project the artist began more than 10 years ago.

TR Ericsson: I Was Born To Bring You Into This World runs through Dec. 31 at the Everson Museum, 401 Harrison St. Gallery hours are Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, noon to 5 p.m.; Thursdays, noon to 8 p.m.; and Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $8 for adults, $6 for seniors and students. Every Wednesday has pay-what-you-want admission. For information, call (315) 474-6064. SNT

Please read the summons and complaint carefully. You should immediately contact an attorney or your local legal aid office to obtain advice on how to protect yourself. Sources of Information and Assistance The State encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure. In addition to seeking assistance from an attorney or legal aid office, there are government agencies and non-profit organizations that you may contact for information about possible options, including trying to work with your lender during this process.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) “I wasn’t in the market to buy a Day-Glo plastic fish from a street vendor,” testified a witty guy named Jef on Facebook, “but that’s exactly what I did.

The seller said he found it in someone’s trash.

He wanted 50 cents for it, but I talked him up to a dollar. The best part is the expression on the fish’s face. It’s from Edvard Munch’s The Scream.” I bring this testimony to your attention, Taurus, because I feel it’s good role-modeling for you. In the coming days, I bet you won’t know exactly what you’re looking for until you find it. This prize may not be highly valued by anyone else but you. And it will amuse you and be of use to you in just the right ways.

War ended in 1865. A veteran from that conflict later produced a daughter, Irene Triplett, who is still alive today and collecting his pension. In the coming months, I foresee you being able to take advantage of a comparable phenomenon, although it may be more metaphorical. Blessings from bygone times, perhaps even from the distant past, will be available to you. But you’ll have to be alert and know where to look. So now might be a good time to learn more about your ancestors, ruminate exuberantly about your own history, study the lives of your dead heroes, and maybe even tune in to your previous incarnations.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Where are Chinese gooseberries grown? In New Zealand. What is a camel’s hair brush made of? Squirrel fur. When England and France waged their Hundred Years’ War, how long did it last? 116 years. When do Russians celebrate their October Revolution?

In November. Trick answers like these are likely to be a recurring theme for you in the coming weeks, Gemini. That’s why I advise you to NOT be a Master of the Obvious.

with the astrological omens, I recommend you indulge in any or all of the following exercises.

1. Dedicate an entire day to performing acts of love. 2. Buy yourself flowers, sing yourself a song, and tell yourself a story about why you’re so beautiful. 3. Explain your deeply felt opinion with so much passion and logic that you change the mind of a person who had previously disagreed with you. 4. Make a pilgrimage to a sacred spot you want to be influenced by.

5. Buy a drink for everyone in a bar or cafe.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) “Dear Rob: I saw a

photo of you recently, and I realized that you have a scar on your face. I hope you don’t mind me telling you it resembles an ancient Mayan hieroglyph that means ‘Builder of Bridges for Those Who Are Seeking Home.’ Did you know this? If so, do you think it’s an accurate title for what you do? Signed, Renegade Leo Scholar.”

Dear Scholar: Thanks for your observation. I don’t know if I fully deserve the title “Builder of Bridges for Those Who Are Seeking Home,” but it does describe the role I’m hoping to play for Leos. The coming weeks will be an excellent time for your tribe to clarify and cultivate your notion of home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Author Clarissa Pinkola Estés encourages us to purge any tendencies we might have to think of ourselves as hounded animals, angry, wounded victims, leaky vessels aching to be filled, or broken creatures yearning for rescue. It so happens that now is a perfect time for you to perform this purgation. You have maximum power to revise your self-image so that it resounds with more poise, self-sufficiency and sovereignty.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) I used to scoff at

people who play the lottery. The chance of winning big is almost nil. Why not invest one’s hopes in more pragmatic schemes to generate money? But my opinion softened a bit when the planet Jupiter made a lucky transit to an aspect in my personal horoscope. It really did

seem like my chances of winning the lottery were unusually high. I started dreaming about the educational amusements I’d pursue if I got a huge influx of cash. I opened my mind to expansive future possibilities that I had previously been closed to. So even though I didn’t actually get a windfall during this favorable financial phase, I was glad I’d entertained the fantasy. In alignment with current astrological omens, Libra, here’s the moral of the story for you: Meditate on what educational amusements you’d seek if you had more money.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) In the early stages of Johnny Cash’s development as a musician, his mother hired a coach to give him singing lessons. But after a few meetings, the teacher counseled him to quit. Johnny’s style was so unique, the seasoned pro thought it better not to tamper with his natural sound. I hesitate to offer you comparable advice, Scorpio. I’m a big believer in the value of enhancing one’s innate talents with training and education. On the other hand, my assessment of your destiny between now and October 2018 impels me to offer a suggestion: It may be useful for you to give some credence to the perspective of Johnny Cash’s voice coach. Make sure you guard and revere your distinctiveness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) I used to nurture a grudge against Tony Pastorini. He was the high school math teacher who kicked me out of the extracurricular Calculus Club because my proofs were too “intuitive and unorthodox.”

The shock of his rejection drove me away from a subject I had been passionate about. Eventually, though, I came to realize what a good deed he had done. It would have been a mistake for me to keep specializing in math -- I was destined to study literature and psychology and mythology -- but it took Pastorini to correct my course. Now, Sagittarius, I invite you to make a similar shift of attitude. What debt of gratitude do you owe a person you have thought of as a source of frustration or obstruction?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) In the lore of ancient Greek mythology, the god Prometheus stole fire from his fellow deities and sneakily gave it to us humans. Before our patron provided us with this natural treasure, we poor creatures had no access to it. As I gaze out at your possibilities in the coming months, Capricorn, I foresee you having Promethean inclinations.

Your ability to bestow blessings and spread benevolence and do good deeds will be at a peak. Unlike Prometheus, however, I don’t expect you’ll get into trouble for your generosity. Just the opposite!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Here’s a parable you may find useful. An armchair explorer is unexpectedly given a chance to embark on an adventure she has only read and dreamed about. But she hesitates on the brink of seizing her opportunity. She asks herself, “Do I really want to risk having ragged reality corrupt the beautiful fantasy I’ve built up in my mind’s eye?” In the end she takes the gamble. She embarks on the adventure. And ragged reality does, in fact, partially corrupt her beautiful fantasy. But it also brings her unexpected lessons that partially enhance the beautiful fantasy.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) “A game of chess

is usually a fairy tale of 1,001 blunders,” said chess grandmaster Savielly Tartakower, a Pisces.

“It is a struggle against one’s own errors. The winner of the game is the player who makes the next-to-last mistake.” I think this is excellent counsel during the current phase of your astrological cycle, Pisces. It’s time to risk bold moves, because even if they’re partly or wholly mistaken, they will ultimately put you in a good position to succeed in the long run. Here’s a further point for your consideration. Remember the philosopher Rene Descartes’ famous dictum, “Cogito ergo sum”? It’s Latin for “I think, therefore I am.” Tartakower countered this with, “Erro ergo sum,” which is “I err, therefore I am.”
