Ikea has taken advertising in a whole new direction with its recent print ad for a crib. The ad, which appears in the Swedish magazine Amelia, invites women who think they might be pregnant to urinate on the paper to reveal a discounted price.

“Peeing on this ad may change your life,” the ad reads at the top of the page. “If you are expecting, you will get a surprise right here in the ad.” Adweek reported that the agency behind the gimmick adapted pregnancy test technology to work on a magazine page.

One of Quebec City’s iconic tourist attractions is its ice hotel, the 45-room Hotel de Glace. But on Jan. 9, the hotel’s most dreaded disaster, a fire, broke out in one of the guest rooms, the CBC reported.

Manager Jacques Desbois admitted that “when I received the phone call, they had to repeat twice that there was a fire in the ice hotel.” Predictably, the flames did not spread and caused little damage to the structure, although smoke spread throughout the hotel and residents were evacuated. “In a room made out of ice and snow there are few clues to look at,” Desbois said, although each room has candles, and the hotel is considering the possibility that one of them caused the fire.

An unnamed 41-year-old Chinese woman who had been suffering from fevers and breathing problems for six years finally went for a checkup in early January at a hospital in Tongchuan, Shaanxi Province, China. Doctors X-rayed and found an inch-long chili pepper in her right lung.

Metro News reported that Dr. Luo Lifeng tried to remove the pepper using a probe but was forced to operate because it was lodged too deep to reach. He speculated that she had inhaled the pepper and then forgotten about it.

Council officers for the village of Blubberhouses in North Yorkshire, England, stumbled upon seven trash bags full of cannabis plants at the side of a road on Nov. 12, according to the BBC. They contacted the North Yorkshire Police, whereupon Constable Amanda HanuschMoore tweeted a photo of the bags and invited the owners to “come and speak to us at Harrogate Police Station, we’re more than happy to discuss!”

Be Kind to Animals

Donna Byrne, 53, of Polk County, Fla., was charged with driving under the influence on Nov. 2, but it was her mode of transportation that earned her an animal neglect charge. Byrne was riding her horse, Boduke, down a busy road in Lakeland in the middle of the afternoon.

When officers reached Byrne, she was staggering and had red, watery eyes, explained by her breath-alcohol level, which was more than twice the legal limit, Polk County Sheriff’s Office spokesman Brian Bruchey told the Orlando Sentinel.

Boduke got a ride to the sheriff’s Animal Control livestock facility, but Bruchey said he’d most likely be returned to Byrne, whose rap sheet includes cruelty to animals and drug possession.

A Chicago wiener stand was the scene of a crime gone south on Oct. 31 when Terrion Pouncy, 19, accidentally discharged his gun, which he was trying to conceal in his pants, and shot himself in a most sensitive location. The Chicago Tribune reported police were called to the Original Maxwell Street Polish at about 6 a.m., after a hooded man threatened employees with a small-caliber pistol.

One of the employees gave him money from the cash register, according to the complaint against Pouncy, after which the robber stole the man’s cellphone and wallet, and ran outside, stuffing the gun in his pants, but it went off twice, striking his “groin” and thigh. Pouncy kept running and eventually called 911 to report that he’d been shot. He was charged with two counts of armed robbery with a firearm, but couldn’t appear for his bond hearing, as he was recovering at a local hospital.

What’s Up, Doc?

Poland has one of the lowest birth rates in Europe, so the Polish Health Ministry is using the example of rabbits to encourage its citizens to multiply. The ministry produced a short video with a rabbit “narrator” who explains that members of the Leporidae family enjoy exercise, a healthy diet and little stress. “If you ever want to be a parent, follow the example of rabbits,” the video suggests. The ministry said in a statement to the Associated Press in early November that it was looking for a way to increase public awareness about the low birth rate that “did not offend anyone and was not vulgar.”

THINGS THAT MATTER

By Luke Parsnow

LITTLE LULUS ADD UP IN STATE SENATE STIPEND CASH GRAB New York state lawmakers have spent a good portion of the last few months decrying the state’s $4.4 billion deficit. As budget negotiations continue in Albany, they have been scrambling to come up with a spending plan that makes up for that large hole.

Here’s one way they can contribute: Give back the money that doesn’t belong to them.

In May 2017 The New York Times revealed that four Republicans and three members of the Independent Democratic Conference (IDC) — all members of the state Senate — had been receiving thousands of dollars in stipends for leadership positions that they didn’t actually hold.

Two were senators representing parts of Central New York: Democrat David Valesky, who represents the city of Syracuse and parts of Onondaga, Madison and Oneida counties, and Republican Patty Ritchie, who represents Oswego County and areas along Lake Ontario up to Massena.

Ritchie was authorized to receive a

WORK WITH US HELP OTHERS

$15,000 bonus for serving as chair of the Senate Health Committee, even though she was actually only the deputy vice chair. Valesky, the current vice chair of the Health Committee, was identified in documents in 2015 and 2016 as chairman of the committee, and consequently received $30,000 in gross pay during those two years for a job he doesn’t have. That’s on top of his $79,500 base salary that all members of the Legislature receive.

The Times report caused a blizzard of outrage from the public and from fellow lawmakers. Shortly after the report, federal authorities launched an investigation into the practice to determine if it is illegal. The status of that probe is not yet known.

One year later, it turns out the state Senate leadership doesn’t seem even slightly interested in amending the situation. Last week, state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli’s office told The New York Times that they had once again received Senate payroll certifications listing five senators — again all Republicans or IDC members — as chairs of Senate committees who do not actually serve as chairs.

The certifications again label Sen. Ritchie as chair of the Health Committee (which she isn’t) and labels Sen. Valesky as “senior assistant majority leader of the Senate,” a position that allegedly warrants a $27,500 payment. Valesky is not listed

even though state law dictates that those positions aren’t entitled to one. They argue that a state law provision allows unspecified pay for senators serving in a “special capacity,” although that provision does not specifically say whether chairman stipends can be transferred legally to other members.

So if we can’t rely on Senate leadership to do the decent thing, maybe we can rely on the senators themselves to turn down the stipends or return them to the state treasury? That’s laughable. All senators in last year’s circus, with the exception of Pam Helming (R-Canandaigua), maintained that the lulus they received were legal and pocketed them despite the scrutiny. Both Valesky and Ritchie said the stipends they got were “well-earned.”

Legal or not, the leadership’s defense of this indefensible act, combined with senators playing right along, is just another example of Albany’s pay-to-play culture.

Or as the self-described nonpartisan government watchdog Reclaim New York puts it, the lulu practice is “using paperwork tricks at best, and fraud at worst.”

In a four-page memo released last year about the stipends, Senate officials said that the documents sent to the comptroller with the false titles were simply a way to ensure payment, not to lie about the position they held.

The problem here is that they did both.

And now they’re doing it again. SNT

under that position on the state Senate website nor on a list of his memberships on his own website.

As a result of these latest developments, DiNapoli threatened to withhold the stipends unless it can be proven that a lawmaker’s title on a committee or board warrants a stipend. He also said his office will attempt to take back the money already scheduled to be paid if proper explanation is not provided.

That means Valesky and Ritchie could lose three-fourths of the stipends that their Senate superiors apparently believe they are entitled to.

How are vice chairs and deputy vice chairs taking payments reserved for chairs? Well, the New York state Senate has one of the most extensive monetary bonus programs in the country, where nearly all 63 members earn stipends, also known as “lulus,” that they get from holding various leadership positions. Those stipends add between $9,000 and $34,000 to their annual wages.

State law mandates lawmakers who hold multiple leadership roles can only take a stipend from one of them. So if one legislator is chair of a committee, but is also a member of the Senate leadership, he or she naturally takes the higher of the two stipends, leaving the other one hanging.

Senate leadership apparently believes that means the remaining stipend should go to the legislator next in command,

ART

By Carl Mellor

CREATIVE ENERGY DRIVES WEST COAST CERAMICS SHOW The Everson Museum of Art’s radically revamped Ceramics Gallery, now more than a year old, is still establishing its identity. The second exhibition staged in the space clearly accelerates that process. From Funk to Punk: Left Coast Ceramics, a show spanning 70 years of ceramics on the West Coast, fulfills multiple missions.

First, it provides an overview of West Coast artists encompassing different eras and artistic styles, types of ceramics, and inspirations for the artists. To build a ground floor for the exhibit, curator Peter Held selected pieces from the Everson’s collection that were created between 1936 and 1986.

The “Funk” segment of the exhibition presents works by Peter Voulkos, who is influential for several reasons: his technical innovations; his role in tearing down a perceived divide between ceramics and fine arts; and his ability to create memorable jars, bowls and other works.

It also displays pieces by Glen Lukas, a ceramist enamored of landscapes from the western United States. He is celebrated for playing with glazes, raw surfaces and rough clay designs.

Beatrice Woods’ piece “Aha!” is also in the show. She’s noted for making works with a sense of whimsy and a folk-art touch; she intentionally created pieces with a naïve sensibility.

These, and other artworks, make a basic but essential point: West Coast ceramists from that period followed lots of creative paths. That generalization is also true for 24 contemporary artists taking part in the exhibit. Their work, the “Punk” portion of the show, is the primary source of energy for a large exhibit.

Indeed, Held chose wisely by including works by Doug Jeck and Meghan Smythe. Jeck makes life-size sculptures evoking ev-

eryday people, not gods or goddesses. His creations are vulnerable, injured, even broken down. Thus, “Deacon” sits in a chair with bent legs, no toes, and emptiness where his kneecaps should be. Here Jeck isn’t merely stating that all of us are subject to decline and decay; he’s communicating an emotional component.

Smythe also deals with physicality. Her works at the Everson portray limbs, bones and other body parts sprawled out on the floor. The pieces will certainly gross out some viewers, but that’s hardly the end game for Smythe. She’s contrasting the flesh of people walking around today and flesh that’s decayed, probing into our perceptions of long-vanished communities like Pompeii, which was destroyed by a volcano’s wrath. What are we to think of a place where skeletons and artifacts were buried under volcanic ash?

A third artist, Kate MacDowell, has long made porcelains evoking interactions between humans and animals or humans and plants. She’s deeply concerned about environmental issues and created pieces that depict apples filled with skulls, referencing the use of insecticides on some apple orchards. In the Everson exhibit, “Nursemaid II” shows an infant being suckled by a wolf/human hybrid.

And Wanxin Zhang has impressive works in From Funk to Punk. One piece beautifully interprets the “Pieta,” a Renaissance-period artwork in which Mary mourns the death of Jesus Christ; his body rests in her lap. In “Twin Peaks,” two figures melt together, bathed in yellow and red colors. Born and educated in China, Zhang has lived in San Francisco since 1992.

Ruby Rose Neri is influenced by time she spent as a painter and street artist who created graffiti. Her pieces in the exhibition

are gaudy and self-representational; in a cup portraying her, the arms take the place of handles.

The show’s two segments, it should be emphasized, don’t exist in isolation. In many instances, artworks from different decades are positioned side by side. In that context, Richard Notkin’s pieces complement those made by Ehren Tool; both combine ceramics and social commentary.

For more than 40 years, Notkin has made works such as a teapot that is a skull topped by an atomic bomb’s mushroom cloud. Tool, who served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the first Persian Gulf War, has created thousands of cups decorated with images of bombs, skulls and other markings.

And while the show isn’t intended to focus on art history, it does discuss varied influences on West Coast ceramics. The impact of Asian art on Wanxin Zhang is clear: He grew up in China. For Henry Takemoto, who has an exquisite plate in the exhibit, more information is required. He was influenced both by traditional Asian ceramics and abstract expressionism.

In assessing the exhibit, it should be noted that viewers who want to make sense of the “Funk” and “Punk” groupings will have to pay close attention to captions. In most instances, it’s not possible to simply look at a piece and determine when it was created. Beyond that, large exhibitions share a common problem: It’s difficult to view two pieces and make conclusions about an artist’s body of work.

Nonetheless, the show has several positive aspects. Held is comfortable with a variety of ceramic works, including Tony Marsh’s sparse cauldrons, Tonya Batura’s absurdist creations such as a jar containing tongue-like forms, and Sascha Brastoff’s flamboyant plates. In addition, the curator, by selecting some works made during the last three years, has provided a sense of immediacy and connected directly to the current art scene.

Finally, he’s enlivened the exhibition’s survey format by choosing individual works that stand out.

From Funk to Punk continues its run through April 15. The Everson Museum, 401 Harrison St., is open 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 college students, and free for children under age 12 and members of the U.S. Armed Forces. On every Wednesday, the museum has pay-what-you-wish admission. For information, call (315) 474-6064. SNT

LETTERS Making Voting Easier Earlier this year the Democratic Caucus of the New York State Election Commissioners Association formally endorsed early voting in New York state.

The support was nearly unanimous within our caucus. The time is now for New York to enact this vital reform.

For five years New York has remained in limbo on the question of early voting and the corresponding funding. There are now 37 states that allow their citizens the option of casting votes before Election Day. It is time for New York to become the 38th state.

The antiquated concept of voting only in a single 15-hour period on a Tuesday in November does not take into account our modern needs. Early voting is one of the most vocal demands of citizens coming to our boards of election offices in the days leading up to Election Day.

Across the country every demographic and every ideology enjoys the benefit of early voting. Large, small, red, blue and purple states like Texas, Ohio, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, California, Virginia and Oklahoma have all adopted early voting and seen its popularity increase.

A Jan. 16 Siena College Poll shows 65 percent of those polled (73 percent Democrats; 49 percent Republicans; 68 percent independents) are in favor of “instituting early voting in New York like it exists in dozens of other states.”

Gov. Cuomo and legislative leaders have determined that this is the year to propose meaningful electoral reform and expand accessibility with early voting.

The proposed legislation, coupled with a state appropriation to counties and the city of New York to reduce the financial burden on our local boards of elections, gives New Yorkers the accessibility to the ballot box that they deserve.

The Democratic Caucus of the New York State Election Commissioners Association urges the New York state Legislature to pass funding for early

voting in this year’s budget and commit to funding in the years to come. Passage this year will allow the boards of elections to implement early voting in 2019.

It is important that we do not delay another year. Early voting should be perfected for the 2020 presidential election season, when a fervent turnout is expected.

The time is now for New York to pass early voting and its funding in this year’s budget so New Yorkers can enjoy the convenience the rest of the country already enjoys.

union and be treated with dignity and respect at work. They carried signs that boldly proclaimed: “I Am a Man.” Fifty years later, corporate lobbyists and special interest groups have brought a case against working people, Janus v.

AFSCME Council 31, to the Supreme Court. These are the same extremist voices that actively work to limit voting rights, roll back economic protections, and gut civil and labor rights laws.

Powerful billionaires are backing the Janus case, and their reason is no secret: They want to use the Supreme Court to undermine our freedom to join together in strong unions, because unions give us the power to unrig the rules and make our economy fair for working families again.

ORANGE HOOPS SQUAD OFFERS PROFILES IN COURAGE His team was finished, but Jim Boeheim wasn’t.

As the moderator started to wrap up Syracuse University’s news conference following SU’s 69-65 loss to Duke March 23 in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament, Orange coach Boeheim realized there weren’t any more questions coming from the media and said he wanted to say something.

Boeheim, who often comes across more critical than complimentary of his players, wanted the media members assembled in that room — and by extension the college basketball universe — to know that the defensive efforts that carried the Orange past Arizona State, Texas Christian University and Michigan State to the Sweet 16 were a byproduct of Syracuse’s grit, determination and will to win — not because the other teams had bad shooting nights.

“With this group, I think that sometimes we forget that we had seven (scholarship) guys and one of them (Bourama Sidibe) has got a bad knee,” Boeheim said. “So for these guys to do what they’ve done, I think it’s an amazing thing.

“Our defense has been good all year, but in this tournament it’s funny that everybody just keeps missing (shots) against us. We just must be really lucky,” he continued. “Because I’m sure if we had snuck this (Duke) game out, which we had a chance, it would have been because they didn’t shoot well. Just like Michigan State didn’t shoot well. Just like TCU didn’t shoot well, Arizona State didn’t shoot well.

“These guys did it; it wasn’t any team playing bad or shooting bad. Good teams that shoot 40 percent from (3-point range) don’t shoot 25 percent from the three, unless you make them. Unless you get them away from the shots they want to take.

And these guys have done that for four straight games, and I don’t think you can give them enough credit for what they’ve done defensively.”

After praising Duke’s offense and lamenting Syracuse’s late mistakes on the offensive end, Boeheim made one more closing argument defending the grind-itout style that defined this year’s team.

“What these guys have accomplished, I don’t think you can give them enough credit to beat the teams we’ve beaten and played the defense the way we’ve played it,” he said. “Four teams in a row don’t shoot bad. Maybe one or two, but four? I don’t think so.

“So these guys deserve an awful lot of credit, I’m really proud of these guys,

they’ve done just about everything you could hope for and it’s been all year,” he added. “It’s been seven guys all year. It hasn’t been just a few games, it’s been all year and they deserve an unbelievable amount of credit.”

You know the underdog story by now: Promising forward Taurean Thompson unexpectedly transferred to Seton Hall in September, fifth-year transfer shooting guard Geno Thorpe quit the team in December, freshman point guard Howard Washington suffered a season-ending knee injury in January, and freshman center Sidibe (knee) and freshman forward Matthew Moyer (ankle) missed significant time with injuries.

Counting Sidibe and Moyer, the Orange finished the season with seven scholarship players, plus former walk-on Braedon Bayer, who was given a scholarship in December and ended up playing key minutes in SU’s NCAA Tournament win over Michigan State. As the injuries mounted, guards Tyus Battle and Frank Howard and forward Oshae Brissett had to play nearly every minute of every game in the grueling Atlantic Coast Conference and then the postseason.

“That just proves how much mental toughness we have as a team, how much heart we have as a team, because every game we play is a grind-out game and playing 40 minutes is not easy,” Battle said. “So it just shows how much heart we have as a team.”

As in recent years, the Orange found itself on the NCAA Tournament bubble and most “bracketologists” had Syracuse among its first four out of the tournament.

But a win over then-No. 18 Clemson in the Orange’s final regular-season game likely pushed SU into the tournament as the Orange reached 20 wins, including road wins at Miami and Louisville, and had none of the really bad losses that spoiled the resume of last year’s team and sent it to the National Invitation Tournament.

Even then, the Orange received the 36th and final at-large berth and had to play a “First Four” game against Arizona State March 13. Over five days, 11th-seeded Syracuse limited fellow 11-seed Arizona State, No. 6 seed TCU and No. 3 seed Michigan State to under 60 points each as the undermanned and offensively challenged Orange zoned its way into the Sweet 16.

“Like coach said before, this year could have been bad with the adversity that hit, but we fought through,” Howard said.

“Guys played with heart and I’m proud

of each and every one of these dudes and proud of myself and proud of coach.”

The improbable run ended in Omaha, Neb., where No. 2 seed Duke and Coach Mike Krzyzewski outlasted the Orange mostly because of a nine-point edge in free throws (20-11) and a 10-point edge (18-8) in points off turnovers. The Orange shot well overall (49 percent on 25-for-51 shooting) and limited the high-scoring Blue Devils to 39.3 percent shooting (22-of-56).

“We beat a really good team tonight.

Battle is such a good player, and Jim is my dearest friend,” said Krzyzewski, who in 2006 asked Boeheim to be his assistant coach for the USA Basketball team. “I don’t have a better friend in coaching and he’s as good a coach as there’s ever been. So it was an honor to play him; we feel very good about the win because we beat not only an outstanding team but an outstanding program.”

As always, the offseason will be an intriguing one as Battle, and perhaps Brissett, mull their NBA opportunities.

Battle, who finished the season with more points (712) than any other sophomore in Syracuse history other than the legendary Dave Bing, will likely enter his name in the draft without hiring an agent. That will give him the option of returning to school.

Brissett, a 6-8 forward who averaged

14.9 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, is oozing with NBA potential, although he could probably use another year of college to refine his skills. Sidibe will undergo surgery soon to ease the painful effects of knee tendinitis, while Washington’s recovery from surgery to repair his ACL is progressing and he should start playing again this summer.

And now that scholarship restrictions caused by NCAA violations have run their course, the Orange will have a full complement of 13 scholarships and will welcome East Carolina transfer forward Elijah Hughes and three promising freshmen (forward Darius Bazley and guards Jalen Carey and Buddy Boeheim) — perhaps resulting in a player transferring or being redshirted.

But all of that is for another day.

For now, Syracuse fans should follow Boeheim’s lead and celebrate a team that gave them more than they could have ever expected.

“These guys have had an incredible end of the year,” Boeheim said. “I’ve never been any more proud of a team for what they’ve done in this last 10 days. To go and play in that first game and be able to get that and to beat TCU and Michigan State, these guys have a tremendous amount of courage.” SNT

LET’S COOK SYRACUSE DISHES UP COMFY CULINARY CLASSES Have you ever hosted or attended a party where guests cluster in the kitchen, talking food, wine, recipes, cooking techniques, favorite food TV shows and the new restaurant that’s the talk of the town?

That’s the atmosphere Michele Bellso aims to offer with Let’s Cook Syracuse, an ongoing series of cooking classes she debuted this winter. The classes are held in her Cicero home.

“The classes are part entertainment, part instruction, part social and part dinner party,’’ Bellso says. “They’re a lot of fun.

There’s no shopping, no menu planning and no cleanup. Everyone gets to enjoy the food. And hopefully everyone goes home with a new skill.’’

By day, Bellso is the director of marketing and communications for ProLiteracy Worldwide in Syracuse. By night, several evenings a week, as well as some weekends, her kitchen becomes a classroom.

Bellso plans the class themes and menus, writes the recipes, purchases and organizes ingredients and sets a festive dinner table. All the participants need to do is show up, put on an apron and be ready to prep, cook, learn and eat. Bellso supplies coffee and water. She can’t serve alcohol, but participants can bring their own wine or beer.

Class themes change weekly and have so far included comfort food (meatloaf

and trimmings), Winner Winner Chicken Dinner, fiesta (Tex-Mex food), Pasta Party, Italian Feast, Perfect Party Bites and others. In warmer weather, Bellso looks forward to seasonal offerings like grilling, and sharing recipes and techniques for marinades and rubs.

“I want people to feel comfortable,” she says. “Making a meal isn’t just about slicing and dicing and chopping. It’s about planning and timing. And it should be fun. I don’t want to use any ingredients that people can’t find or people can’t pronounce. I want foods that are accessible and that people would be proud to serve at home.”

Bellso, 57, is no stranger to culinary instruction. She co-founded and co-directed the Syracuse advertising agency Designworks, and in 2005 took leave to launch Make and Take Gourmet, a chain of home meal assembly kitchens with storefront locations in Cicero and Fayetteville. It quickly grew to 20 franchise locations in five states.

When Make and Take collapsed in 2009, she returned to Designworks. She joined ProLiteracy in 2014, drawn to its mission of promoting adult literacy learning. All the while, she says, she missed Make and Take and the personal relationships she grew there.

Years ago, Bellso says, she offered

3.28.18 - 4.3.18 | syracusenewtimes.com

cooking classes in her home. Why not do that again, she thought, using her own recipes, recipes handed down from her mother, recipes she prepares for her 15-year-old daughter and recipes developed for Make and Take?

She surveyed her network to see if people would be interested and what topics they might have her cover. Even people who cook regularly expressed interest in picking up new skills and branching out into unchartered territory, like vegetarian cooking and international cuisine.

In addition to broadening their food horizons, Bellso says, people are looking for fun “date night” and “girls’ night out’’ options.

“Everybody is so busy between work and family; it’s really hard to find time to cook every night, especially if you never really learned how to cook or don’t know shortcuts,’’ Bellso says. “Even people who do cook say they make the same things over and over. So hopefully this will spark new ideas.

“Here, we’re working in a home kitchen, not a commercial kitchen. It’s intimate. Everyone works together to put things together. You’re not just learning new things, though that’s a huge side benefit. It’s social.’’

Bellso says her audience is primarily women ages 35 to 50, although couples have taken a class together and 20-somethings with little cooking experience have signed up, too. The open floor plan of her kitchen allows six to eight people to work

comfortably at stations set up along the kitchen island. She has a six-burner stove with one large oven and a pantry stocked with cutting boards, knives, pots and pans and baking gear.

She describes her role in the kitchen as adviser. “Guests do all of the chopping, whisking, cooking, baking, etc., that is called for in the recipes. I am there to help them by sharing tips and advice about cooking. They go home with a folder with all of the recipes.”

Debra Wise, a teacher in the Baldwinsville Central School District who lives in Cicero, signed up for a dinner party-themed class with a group of friends.

Shortly after ringing Bellso’s doorbell, they settled in, poured glasses of wine, put on aprons and picked a work station. They paired up to get the work done quickly, so everything would be ready at roughly the same time, Wise said.

Two hours later, they sampled their creations: Cajun shrimp with remoulade sauce, chicken piccata, green bean bundles wrapped in bacon, mashed potatoes with herbs and sour cream, and chocolate lava cakes.

“Michele was such a warm and hospitable hostess and made the night so relaxing, educational and enjoyable,” Wise says.

“She was very organized with the kitchen setup, food pre-prep and having six people share a kitchen without having chaos. It was a great way to get some new recipe ideas and learn handy kitchen tricks while hanging out with friends and ending with a dinner party.’’

Terri Lingenfelter, a self-employed financial educator who lives in Cicero, has two college-age children and has been eager to expand her recipe repertoire. She signed up for Bellso’s comfort food class, partly because the brown-sugar glazed meatloaf sounded so good. Participants also prepared macaroni and cheese-topped shepherd’s pie and chicken divan.

“I liked the whole concept,” Lingenfelter says. “I like simpler recipes that are user-friendly that you can put together in a reasonable amount of time. I definitely want to do it again.”

YOUTH TAKES ITS STAND Perspectives on the March For Our Lives rally in downtown Syracuse

By Renée K. Gadoua

Liverpool High School sophomore Jackie Neal says she’s sometimes nervous to go to school. “People think it’s funny to make school shooter jokes,” she said. “Now you don’t know if it’s real.”

Neal was among at least 1,000 people at the March For Our Lives Syracuse rally on Saturday, March 24.

Up to twice as many people marched from the Everson Museum of Art to the James M. Hanley Federal Building Plaza beginning at noon. The local march was among more than 450 marches across the country, organized by teens too young to buy beer or vote, but outraged by gun violence that has hit nearly 100 U.S. schools since the Columbine massacre in 1999.

“I’m hoping things do get fixed before I vote,” Neal said. “I don’t want to be scared for two-plus years. I shouldn’t be nervous to go to school.” Her sign promoted a warning that many marchers and speakers shared: “Today my voice. Tomorrow my vote.”

Christian Brothers Academy seniors Virginia Nash and Jessica Fellows also described shooting threats and “shooter jokes” at school. “Any kid that is considered weird, people say, ‘Don’t piss him off. He’s gonna be a shooter,’” Fellows said. The pair said

16

3.28.18 - 4.3.18 | syracusenewtimes.com

mental health and bullying play a role, but they’re frustrated with mixed messages about how to talk about students who exhibit troubling behavior.

Arming teachers, they say, is a bad idea. “All you have to do is take the gun from them,” Fellows said.

They scoffed at the solution of one Pennsylvania school: buckets of rocks in all classrooms. CNN reported that Blue Mountain School District in Schuylkill County, Pa., encourages students to throw pencils, staplers and rocks at potential shooters “rather than wait passively” for them “to attack.”

“Kids are dying left and right,” Nash said. “It shouldn’t be a risk to go to school.”

When Fellows heard about the Valentine’s Day massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., “I cried at first,” she recalled. “And then I was just mad. It doesn’t make sense that all these kids are dying, and the government is doing nothing.”

The crowd — one of the largest in recent memory at a Syracuse protest — echoed her outrage. It took about 25 minutes for marchers to travel from the State Street museum to the Washington Street federal

building plaza. Along the way, they chanted “Hey, hey, ho ho, the NRA has got to go” and “Hey, hey, NRA, how many kids did you kill today?”

A group from the Episcopal Diocese of Central New York, which held a premarch vigil at St. Paul’s Church, sang, “We Are Marching in the Light of God.” The South African folk song is associated with the anti-apartheid movement.

“This is a moral imperative,” said Bishop DeDe Duncan-Probe. “The church needs us to be at the forefront of the issues. We’re standing for the youth. This is where Jesus would be.”

Several other clergy also participated, as did Democratic state Assembly members Al Stirpe and Bill Magnarelli.

Syracuse Mayor Ben Walsh and City Hall staff waved and applauded as the crowd passed. Walsh shook hands with teens and thanked them for participating.

“They’re leading where others have not,” he said. “I’ve got their back.”

Asked what specifically the city can do to change gun laws, Walsh emphasized a commitment to school safety. Walsh, County Executive Joanie Mahoney and Sheriff Gene Conway are co-chairing a new School Safety Task Force.

Some marchers carried signs criticizing President Donald Trump and Republican Rep. John Katko. One sign called for Israel’s departure from Palestine. Others — held by children, adults and people in wheelchairs — targeted the issue of the day: reforming gun laws to keep schools safe for students. “Protect Kids, Not Guns,” read one. Other signs included “Down with Guns, Up with Grades,” “Books Not Bullets” and, chillingly, “Is My Child Next?”

It was the first march for Jamesville-DeWitt High School sophomore Riya Sharma. “I believe all kids deserve to have a future,” she said. “It’s our time to change it.”

Kate Eichelberger of Solvay brought her children, Maggie, 3, and Gus, 5. “I was in eighth grade when the Columbine shooting happened,” the former teacher said. “He’s in Pre-K now. Why am I still worrying about this? Nothing has changed.”

She rubbed her eyes, full of tears. As a teacher, “I used to tell my students, ‘I would stand between you and a gunman, don’t worry.’ Why should I have to?”

Lauren Hibbard, a Fayetteville-Manlius High School senior, favors stricter gun regulations and disapproves of arming teachers. She carried a sign that read, “Trump sits at a disco party he threw after meeting with Parkland victims for 14 minutes.”

“I’m here to make sure this doesn’t happen in our local schools,” Hibbard said. “When I first heard about Parkland, it was so regular: another shooting. That’s just sick.”

Amanda Gardner held a sign listing the names of the 17 people killed in the Parkland massacre. “I came for the kids that were taken last month,” she said. “It

breaks my heart. I’m tired of sitting on the couch feeling helpless.”

She and her husband, Christian Gardner, grew up in Syracuse and recently returned from living in the South. “We want to settle here and have kids,” Christian Gardner said. “We want to make sure this doesn’t happen to our future children.”

Obni Afriyie, a Syracuse University senior studying education policy, called the youth-organized rally “just beautiful.” Afriyie, who is black, sees as valid the critique that shootings in urban and minority communities tend not to draw as much attention as those that take place in wealthier areas, like Parkland and Newtown.

“There are other issues in city schools where so many are living in poverty,” he said. “Shootings happen in inner-city schools all the time. They have metal detectors. There’s violence. It’s a way of life.”

Those complex racial and economic issues require discussion, Afriyie said. The bottom line, he said: “No child, black or white, should be afraid in school.” SNT Renée K. Gadoua is a freelance writer and editor who lives in Manlius. Follow her on Twitter@ReneeKGadoua.

ARE OUR SCHOOLS

SAFE?

Syracuse Police Chief Frank Fowler on the unforeseen situations that cause the problems

By Walt Shepperd

Frank Fowler has served as police chief for the city of Syracuse since 2010. He has announced his retirement at the end of this year to pursue a five-year second career, hopefully in the field of social action. Mayor Ben Walsh’s administration has proposed a nationwide search for his replacement. Fowler has declared his support for current Deputy Chief John Falge.

How safe are our schools?

I think our schools are safe. In my line of business it’s the unforeseen that causes the challenges. It’s real difficult for law enforcement to figure out that someone someplace within our society is sitting and contemplating carrying out a heinous act that’s going to put a wide number of people in harm’s way. That’s the challenge that we face.

Certainly with technology and data we can track things and follow things and prevent things. There are some things that we cannot prevent. When we talk about the safety of our schools, the things that we can anticipate that may happen through our examination of our current cultures, we’ve made those safety precautions to prevent those things from happening in our schools.

What is the major factor in school safety?

The major factor is adequate staffing. I think the school district has gone a long way to adequately staff their buildings.

We had challenges in the past and they moved to expand the security level, adding another level of security. They utilized the metal detectors in a very appropriate way, to conduct weapons searches, to utilize technology to monitor their buildings.

Should we be arming our teachers?

I don’t know if that’s something we should do. There’s a lot that goes into it before you entrust someone to carry a weapon, with the understanding that they may have to engage someone with that weapon during an abnormal course of their duties.

That person first has to be properly trained, and through that training you have to try to anticipate all of the dynamics that person is going to face. Then that person has to be assessed during the course of that training to see if they have what it takes to do what they need to do with that weapon safely. That they’re not going to panic.

Just because you have a weapon and just because you’re an expert shot at the (target) range, when the bullets start flying and there’s a human being with a weapon that’s your target, it’s a whole ’nother ball game. Your body starts to go through all these chemical changes that you’ve never ever experienced before and you have to be able to override that, and not put those

young people in harm’s way.

So that’s why I say I don’t know. I don’t know if we have the time to spend, the resources to spend. I don’t know if those teachers have the capability of learning.

What is the best use of the March 24 event?

Speaking as a citizen, I think the best use is to identify with that collective voice. You’re going to have various people, various groups coming out and if you’re in a leadership position, a policy-making position and through your listening try to understand what the collective voice is saying, then you do whatever is within your power to address it.

In schools there are various things our young folks learn about, but I think one of the most crucial things they learn about is the United States Constitution, and your right to express yourself in ways you see fit. This is a healthy way for our young folks to express themselves. We’re constantly criticizing our young folks for sitting on a couch with those remote controls in their hands, and their phones, and sending out those text messages.

This is going to get them out and engaged, and they’ll see the result of their activities and that may compel them to do other stuff. And then there’s this thing called history. These young folks are about to make history.

Is the March for Our Lives action, as one parent called it, a modern civil rights movement?

It’s too early to tell. But everything has a starting point. The journey of a thousand miles begins with that one step. And this could very well be that first step of a modern-day civil rights movement.

What are the factors contributing to so many school shootings?

I think there are multiple factors.

Certainly if you examine them you will find some commonalities. But it’s hard to tell. If we could figure this thing out, then we could probably take the steps toward stopping it. It’s hard to tell what the motivating factors are.

I said this before and here it comes again: When something happens that we categorize as an illogical act, what we do as normal human beings is to engage in a normal thought process to try to arrive at a conclusion as to why it happened. You can’t do it with an abnormal act.

It’s the same thing with these school shootings. You start to ask yourself why, and you’ll probably never know why.

You can identify factors that lead up to the incident happening, but the why you won’t get to because it’s an abnormal and illogical act. SNT

T

he March For Our Lives rally on March 24 was part of a worldwide observance in honor of the victims of the Parkland, Fla., school shooting. The Syracuse event began at noon with a march from the Everson Museum of Art to the James M. Hanley Federal Building on South Clinton Street.

The crowd seemed jovial for such a serious issue, while the police presence was far from overbearing. “I’m not good at counting people,” one officer said, “but I think there’s 800 here.” By the time the crowd reached the federal building, media types estimated it at more than 1,000.

Observing the pre-march scene at the Everson, Sam Roberts, a veteran of several local civil rights movement encounters, said it would be hard to tell if the nascent movement was for civil rights. “But it’s for human rights, for sure,” he asserted. “It’s been growing for a long time, and this is the most recent.

We’ve got to keep fighting the fight, but we’ve got to fight together.”

Questions of how integrated the group might be were raised by several observers asking why it contained so few people of color. Urban CNY publisher Ken Jackson noted that while real efforts at inclusion have been the case nationally, the number of factions contending in the new movement locally have gotten in the way of a united effort. “They preach to us,” he adds. “But this is not happening in urban schools.”

Whatever the factionalism, the March for Our Lives drew a significant range of local social activists. For Kitty Burns, who had begun her involvement with opposition to the Vietnam War in the 1960s, it was déjà vu all over again.

She noticed a homemade sign held by a preteen that read “Give up for Lent guns, bullets and the NRA,” which indicated

for her the depth of the youth activism.

“When I was growing up,” she said, “we gave up candy for Lent.”

Burns had been among the three dozen protesters at Congressman John Katko’s office on Feb. 21; they had delivered an oversized check for “thoughts and prayers” on the issue of gun control and his taking campaign contributions from the National Rifle Association. On two days Katko staffers allowed two of the protesters into the congressional office to make their case and present the check.

According to Burns, one element of that youth attitude could be observed by simply watching the crowd at the Federal Building. The number of older people was far outnumbered by the number of youth, and as the event approached its 2 p.m. conclusion, a steady stream of elders left the crowd. Then again, it was unseasonably chilly for a late-March afternoon.

That youth attitude was best personified by two of the march’s organizers, Christian Brothers Academy students Aishwarya Varakantam and Sydney Schulman. At the Everson they circulated the crowd, quietly cheerleading and reinforcing the spirit. They didn’t realize how big this thing would be, they admitted, while maintaining that they would soon be old enough to vote, in anticipation of which they were planning to set up a series of voter-registration stations.

ago, a New Zealander named Bruce Simpson announced plans to build a cruise missile at his home using parts he bought legally from eBay and other online stores. In accordance with current astrological omens, I suggest you initiate a comparable project. For example, you could arrange a do-it-yourself space flight by tying a thousand helium balloons to your lawn chair. APRIL FOOL! I lied. Please don’t try lunatic schemes like the helium balloon space flight.

Here’s the truth: Now is a favorable time to initiate big, bold projects, but not foolish, big, bold projects. The point is to be both visionary and practical.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) The Finnish word kalsarikännit means getting drunk at home alone in your underwear and bingeing on guilty pleasures. It’s a perfect time for you to do just that. The Fates are whispering, “Chill out. Vegetate. Be ambitionless.” APRIL FOOL! I told a half-truth. In fact, now is a perfect time to excuse yourself from trying too hard and doing too much. You can accomplish wonders and marvels by staying home and bingeing on guilty pleasures in your underwear. But there’s no need to get drunk.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Actor Gary Busey is very sure there are no mirrors in heaven. He has other specific ideas about the place, as well. This became a problem when he was filming the movie Quigley, in which his character Archie visits heaven. Busey was so enraged at the director’s mistaken rendering of paradise that he got into a fist fight with another actor.

I hope you will show an equally feisty fussiness in the coming weeks, Gemini. APRIL FOOL! I lied, sort of. On the one hand, I do hope you’ll be forceful as you insist on expressing your high standards. Don’t back down! But on the other hand, refrain from pummeling anyone who asks you to compromise.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) In the Scots

Free Cover with Purchase of Drink

language still spoken in parts of Scotland, eedle-doddles are people who can’t summon initiative when it’s crunch time. They are so consumed in trivial or irrelevant concerns that they lose all instinct for being in the right place at the right time. I regret to inform you that you are now at risk of being an eedle-doddle.

APRIL FOOL! I lied. In fact, the truth is just the opposite. I have rarely seen you so well-primed to respond vigorously and bravely to Big Magic Moments. For the foreseeable future, you are king or queen of Carpe Diem.

to periodically act like a regular person who is not a famous musician. He goes grocery shopping without bodyguards. He rides on public transportation and strikes up conversations with random strangers. I think you may need to engage in similar behavior yourself, Leo. You’ve become a bit too enamored with your own beauty and magnificence. You really do need to come down to earth and hang out more with us little people. APRIL FOOL! I lied. The truth is, now is prime time to hone your power and glory; to indulge your urge to shine and dazzle; to be as conspicuously marvelous as you dare to be.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) The coming days will be an excellent time to concoct an alchemical potion that will heal your oldest wounds.

For best results, mix and sip a gallon of potion using the following magic ingredients: absinthe, chocolate syrup, cough medicine, dandelion tea, cobra venom and worm’s blood.

APRIL FOOL! I mixed a lie in with a truth. It is a fact that now is a fine time to seek remedies for your ancient wounds. But the potion I recommended is bogus. Go on a quest for the real cure.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) I expect you will

soon receive a wealth of exotic and expensive gifts. For example, a benefactor may finance your vacation to a gorgeous sacred site or give you the deed to an enchanted waterfall. I won’t

be surprised if you’re blessed with a solid gold bathtub or a year’s supply of luxury cupcakes.

It’s even possible that a sugar daddy or sugar momma will fork over $500,000 to rent an auditorium for a party in your honor. APRIL FOOL! I distorted the truth. I do suspect you’ll get more goodies than usual in the coming weeks, but they’re likely to come in the form of love and appreciation, not flashy material goods.

(For best results, don’t just wait around for the goodies to stream in; ask for them!)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) There’s a narrow waterway between Asia and Europe. In the fifth century B.C., Persian King Xerxes had two bridges built across it so he could invade Greece with his army. But a great storm swept through and smashed his handiwork. Xerxes was royally peeved. He ordered his men to whip the uncooperative sea and brand it with hot irons, all the while shouting curses at it, like “You are a turbid and briny river.” I recommend that you do something similar, Scorpio. Has Nature done anything to inconvenience you?

Show it who’s the Supreme Boss! APRIL FOOL! I lied. The truth is, now is an excellent time for you to become more attuned and in love with a Higher Power, however you define that. What’s greater than you and bigger than your life and wilder than you can imagine? Refine your practice of the art of surrender.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Fifteenth-century Italian painter Filippo Lippi was such a lustful womanizer that he sometimes found it tough to focus on making art. At one point, his wealthy and politically powerful patron Cosimo de’ Medici, frustrated by his extracurricular activities, imprisoned him in his studio to ensure he wouldn’t get diverted. Judging from your current astrological omens, Sagittarius, I suspect you need similar constraints. APRIL FOOL! I fibbed a little. I am indeed worried you’ll get so caught up in the pursuit of pleasure that you’ll neglect your duties. But I won’t go so far as to suggest you should be locked up for your own good.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Now is a favorable time to slap a lawsuit on your mom in an effort to make her pay for the mistakes she made while raising you. You could also post an exposé on social media in which you reveal her shortcomings, or organize a protest rally outside her house with your friends holding signs demanding she apologize for how she messed you up. APRIL FOOL! Everything I just said was ridiculous and false. The truth is, now is a perfect moment to meditate on the gifts and blessings your mother gave you. If she is still alive, express your gratitude to her. If she has passed on, do a ritual to honor and celebrate her.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Aquarian

author Alice Walker won a Pulitzer Prize for her novel The Color Purple. She has also published 33 other books and built a large audience. But some of her ideas are not exactly mainstream.

For example, she says that one of her favorite authors is David Icke, who asserts that intelligent extraterrestrial reptiles have disguised themselves as humans and taken control of our planet’s governments. I bring this to your attention, because I think it’s time that you, too, reveal the full extent of how crazy you really are. APRIL FOOL! I half-lied. While it’s true that now is a favorable time to show more of your unconventional and eccentric sides, I don’t advise you to go full-on whacko.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Warning! Danger!

You are at risk of contracting a virulent case of cherophobia! And what exactly is cherophobia?

It’s a fear of happiness. It’s an inclination to dodge and shun joyful experiences because of the suspicion that they will disappoint you or cause bad luck. Please do something to stop this insidious development. APRIL FOOL! I lied. The truth is that you are currently more receptive to positive emotions and delightful events than you’ve been in a log time. There’s a less than 1 percent chance you will fall victim to cherophobia.
