At 6:46 p.m. on May 7, Eric Schneiderman was the attorney general of New York state. He was a reliable ally to progressive Democrats. He was riding on a 52 percent approval rating, was almost certain to win re-election to a third term in November, and had a rising political profile that put him on a path to succeed Andrew Cuomo as governor whenever that time came.

At 6:47 p.m., The New Yorker magazine published a damning story featuring four women accusing Schneiderman of choking, slapping, threatening to kill them, and other forms of physical abuse.

The damage was extreme. Two hours and 58 minutes after the story was published online, the attorney general announced he would be resigning.

In less than three hours, the man who had been the lead face in the lawsuit against movie mogul Harvey Weinstein for his own accusations of sexual abuse had become the latest high-profile powerful man accused of the same, and was brought down by the same magazine that helped spur the #MeToo movement.

In less than a day, New York’s chief law enforcement officer turned into a former chief law enforcement officer now under a criminal investigation.

5.16.18 - 5.22.18 | syracusenewtimes.com

It was a stunning and dramatic fall from grace — one that adds Schneiderman’s name to the long list of New York officials who have been forced to leave office because of scandal.

One might say that these allegations, as troubling and disgusting as they are, have no impact on Schneiderman’s ability to fulfill his duties as attorney general.

On the contrary, Schneiderman’s alleged actions fit right in with the culture of Albany that makes it an embarrassing symbol of legislative wrongdoing and an ethics desert.

It was one decade ago this spring when then-Gov. Eliot Spitzer resigned after being caught on a wiretap arranging to meet with a prostitute at a Washington, D.C., hotel. Spitzer became the first New York governor to leave office because of scandal in nearly a century.

His immediate successor, David Paterson, had to pay a $62,125 fine for taking free 2009 World Series tickets from the Yankees and then lying under oath about it.

Cuomo himself came under fire in 2014 when he shut down the commission he created to investigate corruption in Albany — once it became known that they were investigating his office.

And there’s the fact that 40 other state officials have been sanctioned, convicted, or accused of criminal activity since 2000, including former Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, whose retrial of his 2015 conviction of wire fraud and extortion is ongoing.

Schneiderman and Spitzer aren’t the only New York government workers whose careers collapsed over sexual or generally abusive behavior. Sam Hoyt, the former state assemblyman and regional president of the Empire State Development’s Buffalo office, was accused by Lisa Marie Carter of groping and kissing her. Former Assemblyman Vito Lopez resigned in 2013 due to former aides’ allegations of sexual harassment. Ten years before that, Michael Boxley, an aide to Sheldon Silver, was arrested in a rape case. In 2009, Hiram Monserrate, a former state senator from Queens, was convicted of domestic violence.

While taking millions of dollars in bribes and sexual assault are two different crimes with two different consequences, they stem from the same New York problem: people (mostly men) entrenched in power, who then decide to abuse that power, and at the same time use that power to do the abusing.

That problem is one New York has known more or less since its founding.

Since it is one of the most populous states in the country, and its namesake city happens to be the financial and entertainment capital of the world, its influence is magnified and those who drive the influence are paramount.

We can talk about ethics reform and domestic abuse legislation, which ironically was in discussion in the Assembly during Schneiderman’s takedown. We can talk about closing campaign finance loopholes and passing laws that crack down on sexual harassment.

But we all know it’s the fundamental way Albany operates that has to change in order to prevent any more Silvers, Spitzers or Schneidermans from using their public positions for personal gain and believing they are above the law.

No piece of legislation can change the system. Only people who first change the system can enact the kind of reforms that can make the system actually work for the people it is supposed to represent.

This is the same system that Eric Schneiderman publicly railed against, and the same one that ultimately he became a part of. That’s what makes changing it so hard. SNT

LOCAL APP SIMPLIFIES POTENTIAL LOVE CONNECTIONS

Patricia Deferio and Michele Shannon first met each other nearly 50 years ago, when they were 16-year-olds during their first day on the job at a Friendly’s Ice Cream parlor.

The pair grew distant, which sometimes happens to friends, but their career paths brought them back together later in life.

Deferio was the vice president of a health insurance company, and Shannon was a customer service representative for a different insurance company located in the same office building. The two saw each other through children, marriages and, eventually, divorces.

Being single and middle-aged was hard, they recalled. And online dating, developed to be a quick matchmaking service, was not an easy solution. Spending hours making your own profile, being bombarded by notifications and trying to determine which aspects of other people’s pages were true proved to be a nightmarish experience.

“When you go and meet somebody, and the guy looks like the grandfather of the person you think you’re meeting, there’s something wrong there,” Deferio noted.

The pair grew increasingly frustrated with online dating websites, especially when it was difficult to make a genuine personal connection without meeting in person — a leap that could be as annoying as a waste of time or as serious as a safety hazard.

The plan to take matters into their own hands began percolating in 2011. They spent days thinking of names for this imagined dating website, then taking notes of which elements could be streamlined or discarded. When a co-worker’s son, who had created his own startup app development company, said they could be onto something, the dream app idea began solidifying.

After working with several developers, including the local Tech Garden in downtown Syracuse, the pair had Cut to the Chase available on both the Apple and Android app stores at the end of 2017.

Cut to the Chase, with the tagline “dating made simple,” is their own take on the dating app. Along with doing away with the conventional profile, instead opting for a short video message, they also trimmed down the specifications. “(Other dating sites) have a menu of things that you want, and they call it a menu!” Deferio said. “So ‘blond-haired, blue-eyed guy’ is someone I want, ‘who

makes $50,000 or more a year’ and everything else, and then there may be some dark-haired guy over here who might not even show up on your list.”

“And it could be that he might have been the perfect match for you,” Shannon added.

Cut to the Chase allows users to select a gender, age range and location for their potential matches, and leaves the rest to authentic chemistry. It also has several safety features so users can avoid harassment.

Communication must be mutual in order to move forward, Shannon said. “If somebody sends you a greeting, and you don’t send a reply, they can’t keep messaging you: ‘What’s the matter? Aren’t I good enough? Didn’t you like my picture?

What’s the matter with me?’”

This also applies to video chats: Both parties must have exchanged a greeting over texts before the option to begin a video call becomes available. Cut to the Chase also has an in-app reporting feature for inappropriate content that utilizes a saved portion of the video from just before the moment the button was pressed.

The pair acknowledged that they aren’t the demographic most would think of to create a dating cellphone app. Both women are in their 60s, and they proved that they could put together a project like this.

Their families are also supportive of the new business. Deferio’s daughter stars in the app’s commercials (which her fiancé helped to write), portraying a young woman who in one clip goes on a terrible date with a two-dimensional man; the joke is he’s literally a 2-D cardboard cutout. In another clip, she is surprised by the forward nature of a man she had to meet in person; when a naked man comes to the door with two glasses and a bottle of wine, she quickly closes the door in disgust.

Shannon and Deferio said now that the app is operational, they’re working to increase the number of users from its current hundreds. They’re working with out-of-state communications agencies to grow their market; their next steps are Atlanta and Boston, where they hope the app will cater to college students.

But they would love for Central New Yorkers to be the driving force. “We definitely have to boost membership, because Pat and I are tired, and we can’t date everybody,” Shannon said. SNT

NEWS WEIRD By the editors at Andrews McMeel

Jen Sorensen

Plumbing Down Under

Homeowners in Noosa, Queensland, Australia, were perplexed about why their toilet kept randomly flushing, so on Jan. 28, they looked into the flush mechanism embedded in the wall behind the toilet.

Then they summoned Luke Huntley, a local snake catcher. Huntley found a 13-foot brown tree snake in the niche, according to The Daily Mail, resting on the flush mechanism. “Hopefully, he’s going to be able to come straight out,” Huntley said on a video of the capture, “but he’s a little grumpy.”

Take That!

In Dresden, Germany, police reported that two men were injured on Jan. 15 after hitting each other with their cars in consecutive accidents. The first man, 49, pulled into a handicapped parking spot, then saw his mistake and backed out, accidentally hitting a 72-year-old man walking behind the car. The two men exchanged information for a report, then the older man got into his car and reversed out of his parking spot, hitting the younger man. Both men suffered only slight injuries, according to the Associated Press.

Armed and Naked

In Texas, game wardens came across an arresting sight in Gregg County last November: an unnamed Upshur County man hunting in the nude along a state highway.

The Houston Chronicle reported that the hunter, who is a well-known nudist and activist in the area, contested his arrest on charges including hunting without a license, but one look in court at the warden’s body cam footage undermined his case. The man then dropped his appeals and settled the citations.

Right to Remain Silent

Vincente Rodrigues-Ortiz, 22, was arrested on Jan. 24 in Grand Rapids, Mich., for the assault and murder of Andre Hawkins, 17, the day before. But when Rodrigues-Ortiz appeared in court on Jan. 25 for arraignment, he questioned the judge about his “other murder case.”

WWMT-TV reported that his query led prosecutors to interview and then swiftly charge him with the March 2017 homicide of Laurie Kay Lundeburg, and Rodrigues-Ortiz now awaits arraignment in that case as well.

Hue And Cry

In Turkmenistan’s capital, Ashgabat, drivers of black cars are facing high costs to repaint their cars white or silver after President Gurbanguly Berdymukhammedov banned black vehicles because he thinks the color white brings good luck.

Police began seizing dark-colored vehicles in late December, and owners have to apply for permission to repaint and re-reg-

Francisco drove around to the front of the building and parked, where deputies found him and administered a field sobriety test, which he failed. “He made several statements that were differing from reality,” a Hernando County Sheriff’s deputy reported.

ister them. The average wage in Ashgabat is about $300 a month (or 1,200 manats); one Turkman told Radio Free Europe that he was quoted 7,000 manats for a paint job, but was told that the price would rise within a week to 11,000 manats. “Even if I don’t spend any money anywhere, I will be forced to hand over pretty much my entire annual salary just to repaint,” the unnamed man said, adding that his black car had already been impounded.

Bright Idea

Noting that “nobody else has done it,” on Jan. 4 Nebraska state Sen. Paul Schumacher of Columbus proposed a novel constitutional amendment with the goal of stimulating growth in western Nebraska: Delegate complete or partial sovereignty over a designated, limited and sparsely populated area. “If I were a major business, I would not want Omaha or Lincoln telling me what to do,” Schumacher said. The Lincoln Journal Star reported that the senator believes his concept would attract businesses looking for no state or local taxes and no state or local regulations. It presents the opportunity to “have your own state,” he explained. The Nebraska legislature must approve the resolution before citizens get a chance to vote.

Public Safety

Tennessee’s legislature has a newly renovated home in the Cordell Hull building in Nashville, so Lt. Gov. Randy McNally and House Speaker Beth Harwell have been busy outlining some new rules.

“Hand-carried signs and signs on hand sticks” will be strictly prohibited because they pose a “serious safety hazard.” Animals, too, will be turned away at the door, reported The Tennessean on Dec. 21. But in a dizzying twist of irony, McNally and Harwell will continue a policy they enacted last year, which allows holders of valid gun permits to bring their weapons into the building.

Burrito Dreamer

Tampa, Fla., resident Douglas Jon Francisco, 28, was arrested for DUI after he mistook a Spring Hill bank drive-thru lane for a Taco Bell. On Jan. 17, around 5 p.m., the bank branch manager noticed a driver passed out in a blue Hyundai sedan in the drive-thru lane. When the manager went out to the car and banged on the window, Francisco woke up and tried to order a burrito, according to the Tampa Bay Times. After being set straight about the bank not serving Mexican fast food,

Richard the 15-year-old pony, of Bridgton, Maine, has had a rough winter.

He was suffering from cancer of his penis and infection when temperatures plummeted to negative 25 degrees, which caused frostbite. As a result, part of the animal’s flesh broke off while he was being examined, the Associated Press reported. The Animal Rescue Unit in Bridgton has taken responsibility for the pony and has raised more than $4,000 for his care, including reconstructive surgery.

Brogan Horton of Animal Rescue Unit said the goal is for Richard to live out his life pain-free.

Roll Out The Barrels

Outdoorsman Sergey Terekhov, 64, had just let his dogs out to run before a January hunting outing in Russia’s remote Saratov region when one of the dogs bounded back to him and clawed the trigger of Terekhov’s double-barreled shotgun, shooting the man in the abdomen.

The Telegraph reported that his brother rushed Terekhov to the hospital, but he died less than an hour after the shooting.

Road Rage

Distracted driving caused long backups and at least one minor traffic accident on Jan. 20 as a man wandered along I-95 in Philadelphia — in the buff. The Philadel-

phia Inquirer reported the stripped-down man walked along the shoulder and in and out of the right lane around noon, throwing items at cars before being taken into custody by police. His name was not released.

The Hole Truth

Bradley Hardison, 27, of Elizabeth City, N.C., achieved minor celebrity status in 2014 when he won a doughnut-eating contest sponsored by the Elizabeth City Police Department. (He ate eight glazed doughnuts in two minutes.) At the time, police had been looking for Hardison as a suspect in break-ins going back to 2013, so they arrested him, and he received a suspended sentence that ended in October 2017. But a doughnut habit is hard to break: The Virginian-Pilot reported that Hardison was charged on Jan. 18 with robbing a Dunkin’ Donuts store on Nov. 21.

Nerd Alert

Since Twitter announced that it would allow 280-character messages rather than its original 140, a whole new world has opened up for the game-addicted among us. Gizmodo reports that tweeters are using the expanded tweetspace to play board games such as chess, Connect Four, Shogi and Go. Games are even being customized; one tweet enthuses about “Marine biology twitter-chess. With a new marine biology fact every time a piece is moved, and a scientifically accurate death scene when a piece is taken.”

Fooling Around

Levi Miles, 28, took a bold gamble on July 27 when he and Chloe Rimmer, 24, approached a valet desk at the posh Vinoy Renaissance Resort & Golf Club in St. Petersburg, Fla., and demanded the keys to the $300,000 yellow 2014 Ferrari 458 Italia Spider sitting nearby. The valet stand was busy, and Miles told the clerk his ticket was inside the car. The valet gave him the keys but stopped paying attention when Miles didn’t return with the ticket and a tip, reported the Tampa Bay Times. Eventually, the car drove off, but within minutes was stopped by police for non-working taillights, and officers found cocaine on the dashboard. The couple were taken into custody. Miles explained to police that he was only trying to impress Rimmer, whom he had just met. Rimmer admitted she thought it was odd that Miles didn’t seem to know how to drive the car, but he did manage to “move it.” The car’s owner filed a lawsuit for negligence against the resort and the parking operator in January.

Purple Reign

For those wondering whatever happened to Barney the Dinosaur, The Daily Mail has the answer. David Joyner, 54, romped inside the big purple suit for 10 years on the 1990s Barney & Friends show on PBS. Today, he’s a tantric sex guru in Los Angeles who says he can unite his clients’ body, mind and spirit through tantric massage and unprotected sex. Joyner credits his tantric training with helping him endure the 120-degree temperatures inside the Barney suit. While “surprised,” Stephen White, former head writer on the show, said he sees Joyner’s new vocation as the “‘I love you, you love me’ deal, but different. I don’t judge or anything, but that’s a side of David I didn’t know.”

JUST ANNOUNCED

Close Call

Flemington, N.J., cemetery worker Peter Ferencze, 59, was digging a grave at Hanover Cemetery on Feb. 20 when the 800-pound lid of a concrete burial vault fell on top of him, pinning him in the grave. Ferencze was treated and released from Morristown Medical Center after police and other first responders managed to lift the cover with straps, giving Ferencze enough space to squeeze out, the Morristown Daily Record reported.

Curses, Foiled Again

Christina C. Ochoa of Wichita, Kan., and her mom, Christy L. Ochoa, explained to The Wichita Eagle that more than 50 $5 withdrawals Christina made from a Central National Bank ATM during a five-day period in mid-January were for a “money cake” she was making as a gift for someone. But the bank says the faulty ATM was dispensing $100 bills instead of $5 bills, and that Christina received $14,120 instead of $1,485.

In a Jan. 22 lawsuit, the bank seeks $11,607.36, plus interest, it says is owed

by Christina. The bank is also trying to seize two cars the Ochoas bought during the same period, claiming that the $3,000 down payment for one of them was made up entirely of $100 bills.

Trick Or Treat

In Boston, trolley driver Thomas Lucey, 46, of Saugus, Mass., was indicted Feb. 21 for paying a man $2,000 to attack him while he was on the job on Oct. 30, 2016, so that Lucey could collect workers’ compensation and disability insurance.

The “attacker” wore a Halloween mask and carried a plastic pumpkin, from which police obtained fingerprints used to identify him and unravel the scheme, according to The Boston Globe. A grand jury in Suffolk County brought charges of insurance fraud, workers’ compensation fraud, misleading a police investigation and perjury.

Sunshine’s

SUPERMAN

Jonathan Edwards: “The purpose of writing a song is to successfully portray your thoughts, emotions, love, whatever’s troubling you or making you happy.”

Folk singer Jonathan Edwards performs Friday at Ithaca’s Hangar Theatre

By Jessica Novak In 1971 singer, songwriter, guitarist Jonathan Edwards released his first single from his eponymous debut album. Almost 50 years later, that song, “Sunshine,” lives on and Edwards is still writing songs, releasing albums and touring consistently.

On Friday, May 18, 8 p.m., Edwards will visit Ithaca’s Hangar Theatre, 801 Taughannock Blvd., for an intimate show, performing with pianist Thomas Snow. Tickets are $30 and $35. For more information, visit hangartheatre.org.

While “Sunshine” went on to reach No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, sell more than 1 million copies and receive a gold disc from the Recording Industry Association of America in 1972, the longevity of Edwards’ career has proven he’s more than a one-hit wonder. Having released more than 15 albums over nearly five decades, he’s currently working on his autobiography and planning to release a DVD of a live show celebrating his career.

Edwards took a few minutes to talk to the Syracuse New Times about what keeps him writing, the importance of folk music and his love of family.

5.16.18 - 5.22.18 | syracusenewtimes.com

What initially drew you to music?

I was a behavioral problem in my early grade school career. I ended up in military school and the kid next door had a guitar. I had never seen one up close and was 14 or 15 years old. I picked it up and really, the clouds parted, angels sang and suddenly I understood something. Somehow I figured out that it meant something to make that noise and feel that accomplishment. It was a sense of being proactive in my life. Until then I had been reactive. It was nice, a moment of clarity.

What kind of music was shaping you at the time?

Woody Guthrie, Bob Dylan, Peter, Paul and Mary, The Kingston Trio. It was an amazing time to be alive and be aware of acoustic music and the responsibility that folk music had.

Tell me about your first group.

I had a trio like the Kingston Trio. It’s what seemed to be popular and what people knew. It was a heck of a lot of fun.

“Sunshine” broke after you went out on your own, correct?

Yes, around 1969 to 1970, I went out on my own after my

electric college band. I liked the sound of acoustic guitars, instruments, better than loud electric. So I went out on my own, wrote my own songs and boom!

What was it like to have the kind of success you did so early on?

It was weird. It was wonderful. It was astonishing. To be plucked from my little nest of songwriters that I was living with, playing with and having bands with. To be plucked out of that and thrust onto the national — really the world — stage.

I felt that my job, my credo would be to not change. I loved my life at that point.

I loved going out, playing music for people. Nothing’s changed since then.

But the more I stayed the same, the more my friends changed. That was a life lesson. It was miraculous to suddenly go from guerilla-marketing myself in frat houses and student union buildings to opening shows and then headlining them.

How did your friends change?

They seemed to have an attitude. I suppose that sprang from jealousy or envy. I felt distance come up between me and my soul brothers. It was troublesome. But we all kissed and made up years later.

When you wrote “Sunshine” did you ever expect it to rise like it did? Was that a goal?

I gave up having goals for songs way before that. The purpose of writing a song is to successfully portray your thoughts, emotions, love, whatever’s troubling you or making you happy. If you can do that, engage people in that conversation, that’s the goal.

It’s like children: You do your best to educate them, make them the best they can be, but they grow to an age where they are literally out of your control.

il 1st

What makes a song timeless?

Songwriting is about having a conversation between you and the listener.

You have to make it pertinent, make it common to as many people as you can.

You need to communicate the experiences you’re having in that song, the emotion or knowledge you’ve acquired, or some insight you believe is meaningful first to yourself and then to other folks who might hear it.

“Sunshine” was a meaningful song at the time due to the social climate with the Vietnam War going on and Richard Nixon in the Oval Office. What was it like to write a song that affected people on a societal level?

Gratifying. I was humbled that a little song I wrote in five minutes has had meaning for people all these 50 years.

And a cool thing about this song: It’s starting to dawn on people that it’s a pretty angry little war protest song.

I think a lot of the disc jockeys that played it at the time didn’t realize it or I’m guessing the corporate entities might not have played it had they been fully aware. In that context, it’s great that it snuck in under the radar. I was a frustrated person singing a song about war and not being in control of the people who make these decisions.

Do you feel singer-songwriters are responsible for talking about social issues in their music?

I think it’s our responsibility as folk singer-songwriters to break away from the corporate norms or the beaten path of commercial music. Many people find it pretty vapid, pretty shallow. Some of these songs that make it to the top of the charts — country, pop, hip-hop — there are four or five writers on them. It’s a team effort. That’s just odd to me. And so I don’t know where social commentary comes in.

What keeps you going in music?

them, I’m so grateful for that opportunity.

Just a little song can have such an effect!

This song or that record meant so much to them at certain points. That keeps me from hanging up my guitar strap and pursuing my other interests. That’s a major motivating factor for me.

The monetization of what we do now (as musicians) has disappeared. We’re left to go out on the road. I’m really fortunate that I have that fan base that I can go out and talk to, and sing to, and entertain and have fun. So my overriding emotion is gratitude.

Tell me about your 2015 album Tomorrow’s Child.

I was adopted at 9 months old. That photo (the cover art) was found days before I had to turn in the album art. A relative found that picture of the day I was adopted. I had siblings, a life I wasn’t even cognizant of and finally met all of those people when I was 40. I had tried for years to find my roots. I’m going to Minnesota in a few weeks to celebrate my mom’s 99th birthday and I have three daughters. It’s about all of that, adoption and reunion, more importantly.

You have some special guests on the album, too.

Yes, the album fell together so organically. Jon Vezner wrote “Johnny’s Come

Home” with me. Vince Gill sang some harmonies. Jerry Douglas is on dobro.

And the crowning touch, Alison Krauss, put her angelic touch on it. They’re all people I’ve known that I kept calling and they kept saying yes.

What advice do you have for aspiring musicians?

Engage a really good, expensive law firm. No, no, I’m kidding. I discovered a couple of truths. The leading one is to work on your personal relationships.

Understand that it’s a very rare person that can do any work from a closet. Learn how to be with people. Engage: That’s such an important word. Become of value to other people. Discover for yourself how to be in a relationship, with one person or a family or an audience.

We think we can sit in a room somewhere and be discovered, but that’s not the way it works. It’s who you know and how you know them. It’s how you get along with people. That’s a huge gift and task that people should be involved in, just as much as learning an instrument or craft. SNT

John McEuen and members of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band visit the Palace Theater on Sunday

By Jessica Novak

W

hen John McEuen visits Eastwood’s Palace Theater, 2384 James St., on Sunday, May 20, the event will be about more than music: It’ll be about community.

The Grammy winner will headline the Syracuse Sunrise Rotary Youth Music Festival, also sharing the stage with various youth groups and local music giants Todd Hobin and Loren Barrigar.

The youth festival runs from 2 to 5 p.m. with McEuen and his String Wizards band taking the stage at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets are $25 and are available online at brownpapertickets.com, by calling (800) 838-3006, or visiting the Sound Garden in Armory Square.

McEuen got his start with the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band out of Long Beach, Calif., in 1966, and he has been writing and touring since. He recently released a memoir, The Life I’ve Picked, of his 50-plus year career. And he’s currently making music with The String Wizards. “But they’re great singers,” he says. “I should call them the Singing Wizards.”

McEuen plays guitar, banjo, mandolin and fiddle, and other players, including Nitty Gritty members John Cable and Les Thompson, bring along mandola, mandolin, guitar and bass. Multi-instrumentalist Matt Carsonis also plays with the Wizards and has been performing with McEuen for 25 years. “We always got along and still do,” McEuen says.

12

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band was the first American group to tour the Soviet Union in 1977 and is still widely acclaimed for the 1973 album Will the Circle Be Unbroken, which featured Earl Scruggs, Merle Travis and Maybelle Carter among others.

“That album was 34 songs recorded in five days,” McEuen says. “It’s a landmark album of acoustic music. It helped start the whole Americana trend. It’s like The Wall (Pink Floyd) of country music. Dark side of the banjo.”

McEuen spoke with the Syracuse New Times about knowing Steve Martin as a teenager, starting out in magic and reuniting with his Nitty Gritty bandmates.

How did you and members of Nitty Gritty get back together?

I called them. I missed playing with them. It’s a wonderful thing.

How is it going with The String Wizards?

It’s working better than I’d hoped. We play more music offstage than onstage.

Everybody’s always playing: in the dressing room, the car, sitting around. That’s an exciting thing. That didn’t happen with the Dirt Band. It’s something that’s back in my life. It’s a good thing. We can’t wait

for the show to start. It’s like the old days.

Every show is a little bit different.

That must be stimulating for you creatively.

It’s really good to jam on things you don’t know. It helps your other songs, too.

It really helps you come up with ideas.

How were you first drawn to music?

I liked guitar because my brother was playing it. I was 17. But I couldn’t do anything he couldn’t do because he taught me everything. Then I heard The Dillards. Their world of bluegrass took me away and I started playing the banjo with no idea that it would take me where it has. I just wanted to be on stage, to be a performer.

How did you get to meet Steve Martin?

My first real job was working in Disneyland doing magic tricks. That’s when I

realized I liked to perform. Then when music came along, I carried that to the stage.

I met Steve Martin at the magic shop in Disneyland. He has always been an inspiration, even back in those days. He’s one of those movie stars that if he did a movie that flopped, it wouldn’t stop him.

He’d turn the next one into a hit. And by the time he was finished, he’d be writing a book, writing a play.

What was it like to hit it big as a kid?

When you’re 20 years old, you think you want to be in a band. You say, “Let’s get on the radio,” and you have no idea how to do that. So you learn songs and play. By the time I was 21, the first song was on the radio and we were like, “Oh, what took so long!” It was seven months after we started and we thought it was a long time. Then a couple years went by,

the group broke up, six months later we were back together and made our fifth album with “Mr. Bojangles” on it and it put us back on the charts. And now, here I am.

Why acoustic music?

Acoustic is much more personal. It’s a more direct connection for me. There’s lots of fine electric music out there, but I like to be the guy that brings the acoustic into the electric.

What’s it like to have songs that have lived on for five decades?

It’s a privilege to have invaded people’s boat or car or life with music that you’ve done. It’s a very interesting connection because you can almost feel like these people are your friends.

What keeps you going?

Because I feel like I can. I play for a living. And I write. I don’t feel like it’s work. It’s a real responsibility to make things that people react to and like. The challenge. . . it’s like a magic trick. Let’s say you learn a card trick. You work on it for a few months. You have to go do it for somebody. It’s the interaction that counts.

Why keep doing it? I keep getting that question lately. Because I’m not done.

One way to stay vibrant and alive is to keep creating something new that drives you to do more.

What advice do you have for people who want to do what you do?

I studied philosophy, the writings of many people and I found one guy that in 11 words pretty much said what you need to know at age 18: “I am what I am and that’s all that I am,” from the song “Popeye the Sailor Man.” When you turn 18, it’s up to you totally.

The fighter pilots and bombers in World War II, most were under 22. Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein at 15. Mozart was conducting at 8. It’s your turn. You’ve got one ticket.

Do something you love and you will never work. People will hold themselves back. “When I was 12 I had this happen to me.” So? Go read some history books.

Go read Anne Frank’s diary. Go find out what’s happened in the world and realize it’s your turn. SNT

NEWS

By Renée K. Gadoua

Oren Lyons, faithkeeper of the Turtle Clan of the Onondaga Nation, will serve as a keynote speaker for Saturday’s Climate Solutions Summit.

Michael Davis photo

SATURDAY SUMMIT WILL OFFER STRATEGIES FOR CLIMATE CHANGE Renée Vogelsang sees plenty of reasons for discouragement at the Trump administration’s environmental record. Fulfilling Trump’s campaign promise, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) chief Scott Pruitt has sought to roll back a slew of rules governing clean air and water and fighting climate change.

“At a time that federal government leaders are deniers of climate change, it’s critical we’re taking action at the local level,” said Vogelsang, an organizer for the Saturday, May 19, Climate Solutions Summit. The daylong event at Fowler High School brings together local and state organizations to share philosophical and practical strategies and resources to address climate change.

“We need to be implementing the programs we have in New York,” Vogelsang said. “We have funding for money and programs to go solar, install geothermal or heat pumps and to get rebates or incentives for electric vehicles. There are programs to make it more affordable and accessible to change to renewable energy.”

In his January State of the State address, Gov. Andrew Cuomo renewed New York’s ambitious plan to combat climate change. Goals include generating 50 percent of the state’s electricity needs from renewable energy sources by 2030 and a 40 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (from 1990 levels) by 2030.

New York last week announced plans to install more high-speed electric vehicle charging stations along the state Thruway.

In 2017, New York launched the Drive Clean Rebate. More than 5,750 consumers received up to $2,000 rebates in the program’s first year.

Last year’s summit in Rochester drew about 200 people. Organizers hope the Syracuse summit will draw a similar crowd. The day includes presentations on renewable energy, energy efficiency, clean transportation, movement building and environmental justice.

The event is at Fowler to allow more low-income people to attend. “The most vulnerable populations to climate change are those who do not have the resources to adapt, those who cannot easily move,” said Lindsay Speer, who works with the Renewable Heat Now campaign. “Both globally and locally, impacts such as heat waves, flooding events and rising societal costs will disproportionately impact low-income people. It is crucial to include their voices in discussions around solutions.”

Keynote speakers include Oren Lyons, faithkeeper of the Turtle Clan of the Onondaga Nation; Eric Walker, renewable energy adviser and former director of sustainable development for Erie County; and Judith Enck, who served as regional EPA administrator under former President Barack Obama.

“Climate change is the most urgent environmental, economic, health, agriculture and ethical issue of our generation,” Enck said in a news release. “As the Trump administration goes entirely in the wrong direction, real leadership will come from communities.”

As for federal environmental policies, “Hopefully, they will be restored some day,” Vogelsang said. SNT Renée K. Gadoua is a freelance writer and editor. Follow her on Twitter @ReneeKGadoua.

Climate Solutions Summit Saturday, May 19, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Registration begins at 8 a.m. | Fowler High School, 227 Magnolia St. Registration is $20 ($10 for students) and includes lunch. Scholarships and volunteer opportunities available. | Register at eventbrite.com/e/climate-solutions-summit-tickets-45146368002 Sponsored by New Yorkers for Clean Power, Mothers Out Front, Sierra Club, ACE NY, Climate Change Awareness and Action, Citizens Campaign for the Environment, Central New York Regional Planning & Development Board, National Action Network, The Haudenosaunee Environmental Task Force, Frack Action and Alliance for a Green Economy

BODY & MIND

By Mike Jaquays

WEIGHT LOSS MEANS LESS STRESS WITH HEALTH COACHES’ PROGRAM Retirement couldn’t stop doctors Maggie and Lenny Argentine of Oneida from continuing to reach out to share their own healthy living practices, hoping they might inspire and educate others to move toward those same goals.

There is a lot more to living healthier than simply going on a diet, Lenny stressed. “We avoid the word ‘diet’ because diets don’t work,” he said. “Our approach is significantly different.”

Maggie is from Lockport, and studied at the Buffalo General Hospital School of Nursing, the State University of New York Institute of Technology, and Syracuse University. She has a Ph.D in higher postsecondary educational administration, and retired as an adjunct instructor in nursing from Utica College in 2014.

Lenny, a native of Canastota, is an M.D. who studied at the University of Buffalo School of Medicine. He retired from his position as medical director of the Extended Care Facility at Oneida Healthcare in 2014.

The couple met in the mid-1960s at the Buffalo hospital where they both worked.

For their first date in 1966, they went to a Buffalo Bills-New York Jets football game.

Their own path to living a life of optimal health started in the summer of 2009, when Lenny learned of their now-parent company Medifast. When he began Medifast’s “5&1 Program,” after a few weeks of weight loss his colleagues began asking

him what he was doing to look so much better. Maggie also started the program, with the same positive results.

Both of them reached their weight-loss goals by early 2010. Lenny had lost 46 pounds, and was able to get off all of his medications, including prescriptions for high blood pressure and cholesterol.

Maggie lost 30 pounds. They have since maintained within five pounds of their target range, and are now going into their ninth year of the program.

They decided to pay this gift of wellness forward, and became certified health coaches. The business started out as Argentine Health Partners, and they rebranded themselves as part of the Maryland-based Optavia community of healthy lifestyle advocates last December.

Lenny discovered their driving inspiration in 2009, when he was researching the work of Wayne Scott Anderson, a physician who was frustrated with the cycle of treating the symptoms of patients without any real lasting results. Anderson developed a lifestyle management system that creates an overall healthier life approach, to prompt people to rethink their own lives and make healthier choices. He stresses a healthy body, a healthy mind and healthy finances, with a program that focuses on stress reduction, exercise, portion control and getting enough sleep.

Maggie has been involved with studies of childhood obesity since 2001. She collected some of the first data on childhood

She pointed to recent Facebook Live stories of a client using the pseudonym “Nassandra,” meaning “hope.” Nassandra’s story was the inspiration for Maggie’s revised mission statement, which now reads, “I am a certified health coach whose personal mission is to bring health and hope to those who feel invisible, and are struggling.”

“Nassandra has never seen herself as healthy, and is most comfortable remaining invisible, while desperate to improve her health,” Maggie explained. “Down 77 pounds since October, sleeping better, reducing her work stress and more, we can actually hear the hope in her voice. The rewards of working with folks like Nassandra are examples of the work we do.”

The Argentines agree they are now in a better position than ever to have even more impact on people in need of a healthier life, focusing on the three main targets of body, mind and finances. “If someone is in need of improvement in any one, or all three, we can help them to achieve what is important to them,” Lenny said. SNT

obesity, she recalled, even before the subject was as much of an issue as it is today.

She made growth charts for her students, and encouraged them to come to her if they needed to talk about their weight.

That work continues, as Maggie offers Optavia’s obesity program for people ages 13 to 18. The program features a supervised weight loss outreach for teens, combined with a small community and an online support network, she explained.

With an international global obesity epidemic gripping both adults and children, the Argentines are exploring ways to position their outreach to grow globally, Lenny said. A single health coach can personally support an average of 23 to 26 clients directly, so they are in need of many more coaches within their community to achieve their mission “to get America, and soon the world, healthy.”

“Health coaching work is a one-to-one relationship,” Maggie said, “and not all of us have been blessed with the gifts to listen empathetically while celebrating the small victories losing weight requires.

For those of us who share those gifts, the rewards are enormous.”

MEET THE ARTISAN

By Kira Maddox

CRYPTOZOOLOGY FUELS ISAAC BIDWELL’S CREATIVE MUSE Isaac Bidwell’s art doesn’t exactly fit with what one normally finds in the craft-fair seas of handmade essential oils, pottery and jewelry. Described as “creepy cute,” the pieces for sale through his business Pickled Punks Plush offer a playful iteration of mythology, cryptozoology and vintage sideshow motifs.

“It’s the last thing you’re expecting: I may have a cute cat mixed with something, but then you’ll see Momo the Missouri Monster,” he said. “Most people don’t know what that is, and then I get to tell them the lore behind it.”

Bidwell has been creating artwork full time for five years. He decided to focus on developing his own style and brand two years ago, leading to Pickled Punks Plush. He settled on cryptozoology after an early print of a jackalope — a mythical creature from North American folklore resembling a jackrabbit and an antelope — did surprisingly well at a show.

“People were going crazy over this thing because it’s cute and fluffy and different,” he recalled. “No one else was really doing stuff like that.”

Bidwell fell back on his childhood love of folklore monsters and sideshow culture, letting them inspire his work. Stylized images of Cthulu, Moth Man, the Chupacabra and others now grace his collection, along with some original ideas like the “Catus” (a cat mixed with a cactus) and the “Merpug” (a pug dog with a mermaid’s tail). He also has a coloring book, plushies and sculptures.

“If I’m drawing something and I laugh at it, I know it’s going to work,” he said.

Bidwell worked as a server at Julie’s Diner in North Syracuse for more than a decade before taking his first steps into the art scene at Spoke Art gallery in San Francisco. His original pieces drew from famous pop culture icons: cherub-like reimaginings of Hannibal Lecter, Friday the 13th’s Jason Voorhees, musical artists and more.

He would pitch his work to different blogs for feature pieces, eventually receiving invitations to

16

5.16.18 - 5.22.18 | syracusenewtimes.com

display at galleries nationwide. He once worked with a gallery to create an official, limited-edition screenprint for the Marvel Comics movie Avengers: Age of Ultron.

While these pieces were easier to move off the shelves quickly, the lack of his own artistic muse never sat right with him. “You think they’re buying it because of you, but they’re not,” Bidwell said.

“They’re buying it because they like the Ninja Turtles, or they like Texas Chainsaw Massacre.”

The temptation to go off-brand can be one of the harder elements of being a solo artist. Bidwell does not do freelance work and no longer deals with pop culture references. He recently turned down an offer for a partnership with the Warner Bros. TV animated series Rick and Morty on the Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim because that sort of work no longer aligns with his mission.

Organization and financial planning are also notable keys to success. His bachelor of science degree in marketing from SUNY Oswego has helped his career.

Bidwell rents studio space at the Delavan Center on Fayette Street just west of downtown Syracuse. Although his images have a paper-and-ink feel, they’re entirely digital. He showcases his work at more than 30 shows per year, including traditional craft festivals and more niche events such as horror shows like Scare-A-Con or cryptozoology conferences.

He’ll have a booth at Buffalo’s Nickel City Con this weekend and plans to attend Syracuse’s annual Arts and Crafts Festival this summer.

With artwork surrounding the fantastic and imaginative, one may think Bidwell is a firm believer in all things mythological. When asked about his faith, he left it open to possibility.

“I was talking to this guy who writes cryptozoology books and asked him the same question, and he said, ‘In the end, it doesn’t really matter if they’re real or not. It’s fun.’ That’s how I look at it, too.” SNT

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY by R ob Brezsny

ARIES (March 21-April 19) According to my

assessment of the astrological omens, your duty right now is to be a brave observer and fair-minded intermediary and honest storyteller. Your people need you to help them do the right thing. They require your influence in order to make good decisions. So if you encounter lazy communication, dispel it with your clear and concise speech. If you find that foggy thinking has started to infect important discussions, inject your clear and concise insights.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A chemist named

Marcellus Gilmore Edson got a patent on peanut butter in 1894. A businessperson named George Bayle started selling peanut butter as a snack in 1894. In 1901, a genius named Julia David Chandler published the first recipe for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. In 1922, another pioneer came up with a new process for producing peanut butter that made it taste better and last longer. In 1928, two trailblazers invented loaves of sliced bread, setting the stage for the ascension of the peanut butter and jelly sandwich to its full glory. According to my analysis, Taurus, you’re partway through your own process of generating a very practical marvel. I suspect you’re now at a phase equivalent to Julia David Chandler’s original recipe.

Onward! Keep going!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) One of the most

popular brands of candy in North America is Milk Duds. They’re irregularly shaped globs of chocolate caramel. When they were first invented in 1926, the manufacturer’s plan was to make them perfect little spheres. But with the rather primitive technology available at that time, this proved impossible. The finished products were blobs, not globes. They tasted good, though. Workers jokingly suggested that the new confection’s name include “dud,” a word meaning “failure” or “flop.” Having sold well now for more than 90 years, Milk Duds have proved that success doesn’t necessarily require perfection. Who knows? Maybe their dud-ness has been an essential part of their charm. I suspect there’s a metaphorical version of Milk Duds in your future, Gemini.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) In my vision of

your life in the coming weeks, you’re hunting for the intimate power that you lost a while back. After many twists and trials, you find it almost by accident in a seemingly unimportant location, a place you have paid little attention to for a long time. When you recognize it, and realize you can reclaim it, your demeanor transforms. Your eyes brighten, your skin glows, your body language galvanizes. A vivid hope arises in your imagination: how to make that oncelost, now-rediscovered power come alive again and be of use to you in the present time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) The etymological

dictionary says that the English slang word “cool” meant “calmly audacious” as far back as 1825. The term “groovy” was first used by jazz musicians in the 1930s to signify “performing well without grandstanding.” “Hip,” which was originally “hep,” was also popularized by the jazz community. It meant, “informed, aware, up-to-date.” I’m bringing these words to your attention because I regard them as your words of power in the coming weeks. You can be and should be as hip, cool and groovy as you have been in a long time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) I hope you will

What do YOU crave? See our Local Cravings listing on page 30!

seek out influences that give you grinning power over your worries. I hope you’ll be daring enough to risk a breakthrough in service to your most demanding dream. I hope you will make an effort to understand yourself as your best teacher might understand you. I hope you will find out how to summon more faith in yourself -- a faith not rooted in lazy wishes but in a rigorous self-assessment. Now here’s my prediction: You will fulfill at least one of my hopes, and probably more.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) The Polish pianist Ignacy Jan Paderewski once performed for

24

5.16.18 - 5.22.18 | syracusenewtimes.com

England’s Queen Victoria. Since she possessed that bygone era’s equivalent of a backstage pass, she was able to converse with him after the show. “You’re a genius,” she told him, having been impressed with his artistry. “Perhaps, Your Majesty,” Paderewski said. “But before that I was a drudge.” He meant that he had labored long and hard before reaching the mastery the Queen attributed to him. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you Libras are currently in an extended “drudge” phase of your own. That’s a good thing! Take maximum advantage of this opportunity to slowly and surely improve your skills.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) The ancient

Greek poet Simonides was among the first of his profession to charge a fee for his services.

He made money by composing verses on demand. On one occasion, he was asked to write a stirring tribute to the victor of a mule race. He declined, declaring that his sensibilities were too fine to create art for such a vulgar activity. In response, his potential patron dramatically boosted the proposed price. Soon thereafter, Simonides produced a rousing ode that included the phrase “wind-swift steeds.”

I offer the poet as a role model for you in the coming weeks, Scorpio. Be more flexible than usual about what you’ll do to get the reward you’d like.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Here’s

the operative metaphor for you these days: You’re like a painter who has had a vision of an interesting work of art you could create -- but who lacks some of the paint colors you would require to actualize this art. You may also need new types of brushes you haven’t used before. So here’s how I suggest you proceed: Be aggressive in tracking down the missing ingredients or tools that will enable you to accomplish your as-yet imaginary masterpiece.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Useful revela-

tions and provocative epiphanies are headed your way. But they probably won’t arrive sheathed in sweetness and light, accompanied by tinkling swells of celestial music. It’s more likely they’ll come barging in with a clatter, bringing bristly marvels and rough hope. In a related matter: At least one breakthrough is in your imminent future. But this blessing is more likely to resemble a wrestle in the mud than a dance on a mountaintop. None of this should be a problem, however! I suggest you enjoy the rugged but interesting fun.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) One of the

saddest aspects of our lives as humans is the disparity between love and romance. Real love is hard work. It’s unselfish, unwavering, and rooted in generous empathy. Romance, on the other hand, tends to be capricious and inconstant, often dependent on the fluctuations of mood and chemistry. Is there anything you could do about this crazy-making problem, Aquarius? Like could you maybe arrange for your romantic experiences to be more thoroughly suffused with the primal power of unconditional love? I think this is a realistic request, especially in the coming weeks. You will have exceptional potential to bring more compassion and spiritual affection into your practice of intimacy.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) In accordance

with astrological omens, I invite you to dream up new rituals. The traditional observances and ceremonies bequeathed to you by your family and culture may satisfy your need for comfort and nostalgia, but not your need for renewal and reinvention. Imagine celebrating homemade rites of passage designed not for who you once were but for the new person you’ve become. You may be delighted to discover how much power they provide you to shape your life’s long-term cycles. Ready to conjure up a new ritual right now? Take a piece of paper and write down two fears that inhibit your drive to create a totally interesting kind of success for yourself. Then burn that paper and those fears in the kitchen sink while chanting, “I am a swashbuckling incinerator of fears!”

Horse Liniment Erases Pain

HIALEAH, FL - An ingredient often used to treat inflammation in racehorse legs, is now back on the market in its original doctor recommended clinical strength formula.

According to a national drug store survey, the formula at one time became so popular that it rose to the top of pharmacy sales for topical pain relievers. But the company marketing the product at the time changed the formula and sales plummeted.

One of the inventors of the original formula has brought it back to the market under the trade name ARTH ARREST and says it can relieve pain for millions.

ARTH ARREST works by a dual mechanism whereby one ingredient relieves pain immediately, while a second ingredient seeks out and destroys the pain messenger signal before it can be sent to the brain. Considered a medical miracle by some, ARTH ARREST is useful in the treatment of a variety of painful disorders.

ARTH ARREST is available in a roll-on applicator at Kinney Pharmacies without a prescription or Call 1-877-581-1502.
