JULY 13-19, 2016
URBAN JOURNAL | BY MARY ANNA TOWLER
This divided nation “This is just terrible,” said an editor friend from Vermont Friday morning at our alt-media association’s annual convention. “I’m really worried about what’s happening in this country.” A black man killed by police in Baton Rouge, another killed by police in St. Anthony, Minnesota, and then the carnage in Dallas during a peaceful Black Lives Matter protest. Four police officers and a transit-authority security officer killed, seven more officers and two civilians injured. A City editor with us at the convention asked me whether this seems worse than the chaos of the 1960’s. I don’t know. Hard to tell. It’s different, of course, from that period of civil rights protests, Vietnam War protests, the assassinations of Kennedy, King, Kennedy. This is not that. Now is not then. The country survived the 60’s. The mournful, graceful transition from John F. Kennedy’s administration to Lyndon Johnson’s reassured the world – and, I think, most Americans. Johnson went on to do both great and awful things, and we survived that. And we survived Richard Nixon’s paranoia and criminality. But the events of last week showed how little has changed in the psyche of this country. Johnson’s civil rights achievements have been under attack ever since they were passed. Voting rights of American citizens have been eroded. We don’t know one another, don’t understand one another. We can’t imagine life from the perspective of others. This is not new. The killings in Baton Rouge, St. Anthony, and Dallas last week are a part of something that has been building for years, back through Tamir Rice to Michael Brown to Eric Garner to Trayvon Martin to Emmett Till and on and on to the slave auction blocks. The United States is a tragically divided country. We talk a good game, in our Declaration of Independence, in the words on the plaque at the Statue of Liberty, in our pride in Ellis Island. But we were a country divided from the start. And to realize the power and endurance of that divide, we have only to reread the words of the Kerner Commission: “Our nation is moving toward two societies, one black, one white — separate but unequal.” That was 1968. Forty-seven years ago. And now, throughout the country, public schools are highly segregated. Communities are segregated. We don’t know each other, so we don’t trust each other. For a brief moment in 2008, there was hope that Barack Obama’s election showed that we had changed. But Obama
The events of last week showed how little has changed in the psyche of this country since the 1960’s.” was elected despite the deep racial divisions in the country, not because those divisions had weakened. There was animosity toward him then, and it seems to have grown. Commenting on the week’s killings, New York Times columnist Charles Blow said he is afraid for the nation. “This is not a level of stress and strain that a civil society can long endure,” Blow wrote. “I feel numb, and anguished and heartbroken, and I fear that I am far from alone. And yet, I also fear that time is a requirement for remedy. We didn’t arrive at this place overnight and we won’t move on from it overnight.” Time is a requirement for remedy. Meanwhile, during the next two weeks Democrats and Republicans will formally choose their candidates for president. Barring some unforeseen event, one will be Donald Trump, the other Hillary Clinton. And regardless of which one is elected, if the traumatic events of the past week repeat themselves – and it’s hard to imagine they won’t – I don’t see how either will be able to unite the country. I don’t see how either can help overcome the fear and anger and bring us together to make the changes we must make, in public policy, in attitude and understanding. Both Clinton and Trump are widely disliked and distrusted: the wrong candidates for this highly volatile time. Like Charles Blow, I am afraid for this divided nation.

School improvement bill gets funding
Governor Andrew Cuomo signed a bill that frees up funding for the second phase of the $1.3 billion Rochester schools modernization project. The $435 million second phase will allow construction to move forward on 13 city schools. The bill was briefly caught up in Albany politics, but finally passed right before the end of the Legislature’s session.
Group wants casino ban
The anti-casino group “A Better Rochester” filed a petition demanding a change to the city charter to ban casinos. But the city says that it has no role in regulating gaming and that there’s no casino proposal before the city, anyway. The petition reportedly contains more than 12,000 signatures.
No more library fines for children
The Rochester Public Library has begun a pilot program that eliminates overdue fines for children’s and young adult books. The program runs until June 30, 2017, and fines will still be levied for lost or damaged books. Critics say that the program encourages irresponsibility, but the
city says that eliminating fines increases children’s use of the library.

Reboot for EMMA housing project Home Leasing is retooling a proposed housing project for Rochester’s East Main, Mustard, and Atlantic Avenue neighborhood after the original proposal was unanimously rejected by the city’s Planning Commission last month. The first concept for The Community on East Main was two buildings, one a conversion and one a new build, on East Main Street between Mustard and Palmer Streets. It would’ve had a total of 76 apartments. But many EMMA residents didn’t like that 57 of the proposed apartments would’ve been one-bedroom units; the struggling neighborhood needs families, owner-occupancy, and stability to turn itself around, they said.

In its decision, the city’s Planning Commission said that the project would have a substantial adverse effect on adjacent properties, and that it would concentrate too many people on one site “in a way that is inconsistent with the surrounding neighborhood character.” The project would also affect parking and traffic, the decision says. The Planning Commission received oral and written testimony about the project from several people, including residents of multiple neighborhood groups. Overwhelmingly, the people that the board heard from were opposed to the proposal, the decision says. Megan Houppert, development manager for Home Leasing, says that
the company is working with its design team to come up with a new proposal to take to the neighborhood. It’s early yet, she says, but it may consist of three buildings with townhouses. There would also be more two- and threebedroom units, she says. Houppert says that the goal is to come up with a project that everyone, including the neighborhood, will be proud of. Home Leasing expects to submit the revamped project to the city in September, she says. The original project did have the support of the Beechwood Neighborhood Coalition. Beechwood is adjacent to EMMA and the coalition leadership said that the project would be an asset to the area.

The Town of Irondequoit is trying to encourage the growth of formal neighborhood associations, in part by seeking proposals for small-scale community projects. The projects will be funded out of $100,000 in code-violation fines paid by Medley Centre’s former owner in 2014.
NEIGHBORHOODS | BY JEREMY MOULE
Irondequoit gives neighborhoods a boost Young families are moving into Irondequoit’s Winona Woods neighborhood, between St. Paul Boulevard and Titus Avenue. And when it became evident one year that quite a few of Winona Woods’s children were bound for kindergarten, the neighborhood association organized what has become an annual backto-school meet and greet. The event helps residents get to know each other. And the neighborhood association helps connect residents and town officials. “It’s a huge communication conduit,” says Brad Huber, president of the Winona Woods Neighborhood Association. The Town of Irondequoit is trying to encourage the growth of formal neighborhood associations, in part by seeking proposals for small-scale community projects. This is the second year that the town has solicited applications for the projects, which will be funded out of $100,000 in code-violation fines paid by Medley Centre’s former owner in 2014. Last year, the town approved median plantings in the Titus AvenueCooper Road area, and distinct street signs for Winona Woods, which better distinguished, defined, and identified it as a
neighborhood, says Irondequoit Supervisor Dave Seeley. The fact that Winona Woods had a cohesive neighborhood group made it easier to get the projects off the ground, Seeley says. As the town solicits 2016 projects, it’s also asked residents about setting up associations for their neighborhoods. Town officials met earlier this week with some of the residents who say they’re interested. Seeley says that the town will help people through the process of setting up a nonprofit organization, and with initial communications and tasks such as photocopying. Huber, a teacher, is also working part-time at Town Hall this summer to help residents set up formal neighborhood groups. It’s a process he’s familiar with, since Winona Woods started from scratch. As an inner-ring suburb, Irondequoit is filled with dense, walkable neighborhoods, some similar to those in the city. But when it came to defining the neighborhood, Winona Woods leaders didn’t have much history to go by, Huber says. They had to look at the community and try to figure out what boundaries made sense, he says.

The new street signs helped cement the neighborhood’s identity, Huber says. The association figured out the boundaries, and the signs serve as physical markers to set the neighborhood apart. They’ve also helped boost the ranks of the neighborhood association, Huber says. And they’ve elevated the neighborhood’s profile; houses are selling for more than they did before, Huber says, and realtors use a house’s location in Winona Woods as a marketing tool.
Inner Loop candidates named In response to a Freedom of Information request, the City of Rochester released the names of the organizations vying to develop a filledin portion of the Inner Loop last week. The companies are: Home Leasing Services; the Morgan-Christa development team; DHD Ventures; and Strong museum/Indus Hospitality Group/Konar Properties. The city has not released any specifics of the proposals. The organizations have proven track records in Rochester. Home Leasing is redeveloping the former Eastman Dental Dispensary into a senior living community and is also behind a controversial housing project in the East Main, Mustard, and Atlantic Avenue neighborhood. Morgan Management, Christa Construction, and DHD Ventures are well-known developers in the Rochester-Monroe County area. DHD has come on the scene in a big way with the development of housing projects including 111 on East and the Button Lofts. And rumors have been circulating for some time about a possible Strong museum expansion. Strong representatives are tight-lipped on the idea, but the city’s invitation to solicit development proposals for the Inner Loop land was clearly written with the museum in mind, given the wording. About six acres or approximately one mile of land is available for development on the former Inner Loop. A city spokesperson said that nothing more will happen with the proposals until maybe the end of the year.

ACTIVISM | BY JEREMY MOULE AND CHRISTINE CARRIE FIEN
Again and again and again and again Eric Garner. Michael Brown. Tamir Rice. Staten Island. Ferguson. Cleveland. Again and again, in city after city, police officers have used deadly force against people of color under, at best, questionable circumstances. Garner died after an officer put him in a chokehold, a tactic that was prohibited by his police department; Brown was unarmed when a white officer shot and killed him; Rice, a 12-year-old boy, was playing with a pellet gun in a park. Public outrage and protest followed each death, as did calls for change in the way that law enforcement and the courts treat black people. So last week, when police again killed two black men under questionable circumstances, public outcry was inevitable. In Rochester, activist Frederick Douglass and other members of B.L.A.C.K., a black leadership and activism group, organized a Black Lives Matter rally and march that started on Friday night. “We can’t just not say anything anymore,” said Ricardo Adams, who acted as a media liaison during the rally, which started at the Liberty Pole. “We need to confront it, confront the people in power.” In Baton Rouge, police pinned Alton Sterling to the ground and repeatedly shot him at point-blank range. Philando Castile was shot and killed by police during a traffic stop in suburban St. Paul, Minnesota. Both deaths were captured on video and widely circulated on social media; Castile’s girlfriend was in the car and livestreamed the immediate aftermath of the shooting. But it wasn’t just the images that drove the protests; it was a pervasive sense of injustice. Police keep using deadly force against people of color and are not held accountable, says Adrian Elim, a head organizer for B.L.A.C.K. The departments investigate themselves, only to conclude that the officers didn’t do anything wrong, he says. When prosecutors — local and federal — present the cases to grand juries, the jurors often decline to indict the officers. People are hurting, they are fed up, and they running out of patience with a system they don’t believe in anymore, Elim says. “It doesn’t matter with black people, we could have our hands up, they shoot us; we could be pinned to the ground, they shoot us; we’re walking down the street, they will shoot us; we’ll be playing in the park, they will shoot us; calling for help, they will shoot us,” Elim says. “It doesn’t matter if we’re 5 years old, 12 years old, 80 years old, or 22 years old, nothing seems to stop them. However, they always seem to, they manage not to kill white people every day.” Elim’s point was reinforced early Saturday morning by incidents in Texas and North Carolina. 6 CITY

Houston police say that two officers spotted Alva Braziel, a black man, waving a revolver in the air. They say that he ignored commands to put the gun down and pointed it at the officers several times, which led to police shooting him. Some witnesses, however, say that Braziel did not point the gun at officers, according to media reports. And then in Wake County, North Carolina, a deputy was alerted to a man pointing a shotgun at traffic. He found the man, William Bruce Ray, and wrestled the shotgun from him, according to Raleigh TV station WNCN. Ray, who is white, then pulled out a handgun, shot at the deputy, and missed. The deputy arrested Ray, who will probably face an attempted murder charge, says WNCN.
Rochester police say that they’ve tried to build trust between officers and the communities they serve, including predominantly black and Latino neighborhoods. A big reason for the department’s recent reorganization is so officers can strengthen ties to the neighborhoods and engage in more proactive policing. The department is also rolling out body cameras for officers in response to public demand and as a way to be more transparent. Rochester Police Chief Michael Ciminelli said last week that lack of community trust is discouraging. People don’t see all the time and effort that police put into trying to build camaraderie with the community, he said, and many times, those efforts do pay off.
“It’s very, very troubling to hear people say they don’t trust the police,” he said. Currently, complaints against Rochester police officers are handled by the department’s Professional Standards Section. If the complaints involve the use of force or potential criminal behavior by a police officer, the PSS investigations are then reviewed by a Civilian Review Board, which is run by the Center for Dispute Settlement. But many critics say that the process isn’t good enough because in the end, the police chief can overrule the board’s decisions. Critics such as the Rev. Lewis Stewart, president of United Christian Leadership Ministry of Western New York, instead want an independent civilian review board. The board would
investigate complaints and would have subpoena power. “That is not a panacea that’s going to address everything, but also it’s one of the tools in the toolkit to help address that situation, to repair what’s broken,” Stewart says. The RPD is also under scrutiny for the way
it ended Friday’s Black Lives Matter rally and march. From the outset, rally organizers were adamant that protestors needed to remain peaceful, even while they moved around the city shutting down intersections. They blocked off the downtown bus station during the evening commute, but the station had closed in anticipation of the march. Later, however, the group blocked off roads in the East End. Ciminelli said that he and his command staff decided to break up the demonstration for several reasons: the group was blocking a busy intersection, the department had deployed so many officers that patrols weren’t available to respond to other calls, and people coming out of the bars were starting verbal confrontations with the protestors. Organizers decided to block roads for a couple of reasons. Partly, it was to make people pay attention and to show them that the demonstrators will not accept continued use of undue force by police against people of color. They also wanted to show people that they have power. “We need consciousness sparked,” said Douglass, one of the organizers. “We need ideas sparked. Police ultimately arrested 76 people — not all were protesters, reportedly — and charged them with disorderly conduct; three of those people were also charged with resisting arrest. But police also detained two black WHAM reporters, Carlet Cleare and Justin Carter. Cleare and Carter were part of a group of journalists recording a woman loudly voicing her concerns about the police response, says a WHAM statement. Police arrested the woman and the reporters all moved to the sidewalk. Cleare and Carter, who were the only black journalists in the group, were suddenly and without warning handcuffed and led away, WHAM says. Ciminelli ordered their release when he learned what happened. And he and Mayor Lovely Warren apologized to the journalists. “Once we understand what happened, we will try to reach out and see if we can prevent that from happening again,” Ciminelli said. RPD and WHAM representatives met Monday and had an “honest and productive discussion,” according to a tweet from the station’s general manager, Chuck Samuels.

Boston, New York, San Francisco, and many other cities thrive without an inner loop. By the time you are as close to the center city as the Loop, you should simply expect to use city streets. If you want to get past the city in a hurry, use 390, 490 or 590. ROBERT KECK
What about the first responders?
I read the article by Melissa
Lang with interest (“Blood, sweat, and tears,” July 6). It
was a very good piece and it should cause people to think and reflect on the terrible things that first responders go through. It should also make people reject the anti-police mentality that appears to have been promulgated by some folks who lack the wisdom to get the full story about the various police shootings that have been publicized of late. We have, right now, a rush-to-judgment mentality as some members of the community are in denial and seek to glorify and cash in on the families’ grief. Most people, of all persuasions, can actually go through life without any contact with law enforcement. Folks should understand that concept. DAVID HENNELLY
Balance art and commerce
I completely agree with Mary Anna’s Towler’s Urban Journal article about “Art, ads, and the image we show to the world (July 6).” I have conducted brand research among Rochester residents, and it is clear that “small town feel,
big city culture” is a winning brand message. The first part refers to our short commutes, low housing costs, good schools, quaint villages, and general friendliness. The second part is what really excites people; we offer a culture and arts scene that rivals that of much bigger cities but at significantly lower costs with much greater accessibility. It is a winning combination, especially for professional couples who enjoy the culture that accompanies urban life but who are tired of big city hassles. We should showcase our arts and culture at our airport. I travel the world and can attest to dozens of airports that better showcase these things on behalf of their cities. As a marketer and business owner, I understand the need for selling advertising space. But having said that, an important role of an airport is to showcase a municipality’s strengths. And aesthetics and the arts do matter when people are considering places to live and work and even locate their businesses. BRAD VANAUKEN

No place like home [ CHOW HOUND ] BY KATIE LIBBY
Three Heads Brewing was born out of a
love of good people and good beer. Six years later, Three Heads opened its new brewery and tasting room in the Neighborhood of the Arts (186 Atlantic Avenue) based on that same philosophy. The “Grand Opening Weekend Spectacular” in June surpassed the expectations of everyone. “It was pretty crazy, honestly, more intense than I thought,” says Geoff Dale, one of the brewery’s co-owners. “We had a line out the door. It was a 45-minute wait to come in and get a beer, and people were just like ‘Okay’ — we were just having fun.” Three Heads didn’t have a base of operations until now. The beer was brewed at CB Craft Brewers in Honeoye Falls, and Three Heads would host events with Lovin’ Cup, like Homegrown and the Hometown Throwdown. Having its own space allows the brewery to not only host more events but also increase production of its wildly popular beers. The brewery is the second largest in Western New York behind Genesee. The plan is to produce 10,000 barrels a year, a change that will benefit not only the brewery but the consumer as well. For example, the brewery will now be able to sell six-packs of its Kind IPA for the same price as it was selling four-packs before. “I like to consider ourselves modern hippies,” Dale says, “whenever we get into business with people our goal is to have everyone winning. If everyone is winning, everyone is happy, and they are going to be better
because they are going to have a better disposition.” The new, massive complex houses the production floor, a tasting room, and a large sunsoaked patio. The tasting room has communal tables that encourage different groups to get to know each other over a pint. “We have a biker group that lives across the street that are the nicest guys in the world and are here every day,” Dale says. “They sit next to guys that are coming from offices downtown and strike up a conversation with each other, and it’s like, ‘This is cool, beer brings people together.’” The tasting room also features a stage for live music. The brewery doesn’t serve food, but it encourages patrons to bring their own. On tap in the tasting room is a selection of beers not available outside of the brewery (look for a pilsner to be on draft soon as well as a fruit beer). Dale meanders about the tasting room with a beer in his hand, greeting staff and customers with a warm smile and hugs — he’s clearly a man happy with his lot in life. “Honestly, in the end, it doesn’t take much to have a good time: get some beer, get some music, have a couple people show up, throw in some food for good measure. Sounds to me like you’ve got a wicked good time.” The Three Heads Brewing Tasting Room is located at 186 Atlantic Avenue, and is open Tuesday and Wednesday, 3 p.m. to 9 p.m.; Thursday, 3 p.m. to 11 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 12 p.m. to 12 a.m.; and Sunday, 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. 244-1224; threeheadsbrewing.com.

Organist Fred Costello celebrates 40 years with the Rochester Red Wings [ MUSIC FEATURE ] BY FRANK DE BLASE
10 CITY JULY 13-19, 2016
Fred Costello ANNIVERSARY BASH: THURSDAY, JULY 28, AT ABILENE BAR AND LOUNGE, 153 LIBERTY POLE WAY RED WINGS BOBBLEHEAD NIGHT TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 6 P.M., AT FRONTIER FIELD, 333 NORTH PLYMOUTH AVENUE. FIND OUT MORE AT FREDCOSTELLO.COM
It's the bottom of the ninth. Bases are loaded. The fans are on the edges of their seats, restless, noisy, and anxious on a cocktail of beer and fingernails. You can taste the tension. The batter walks up to the plate, focused and determined. The Rochester Red Wings need this badly. The slugger swings. “Strike one!” “Strike two!” “Ball one!” Looking down from his perch way up in the stadium, organist Fred Costello senses the urgency, and his organ signals the battle cry. The audience takes the cue and responds thunderously. “Charge!” The pitch … the swing … This is a scenario that’s gone on for the last 40 years with Costello providing the Red Wings’ soundtrack. And in that time, unbelievably, the man has never missed a game. Not one. “I’m at 2920 games straight,” Costello says. “I haven’t missed a game yet. In fact about 20-some years ago, we had a front office softball team; we’d play radio stations and stuff. Well, I caught a line drive and broke my finger. I still didn’t miss a game. I put a splint on my finger, and I played that night with nine fingers.”
Costello’s history is a storied one of
baseball and jazz — swinging bats to swinging music. He’s way beyond your stock example of cool. Originally from Syracuse, Costello spent 11 years on the road as a working musician, playing 43 states during that time, mostly out West. continues on page 12

“I played Vegas,” he says. “I played Sinatra’s Cal Neva Lodge in Lake Tahoe with Trini Lopez, the Playboy Club in Hollywood — that was a kick — the Fremont Hotel with Wayne Newton. I did the whole circuit. It was a show group called The Profiles, a Vegas lounge act; five guys and two girls. I did a lot of jazz gigs, too.” He covered a lot of miles in those days. “It was never a hassle for me,” he says. “I loved every minute of it.” In 1965, Costello met and married his wife, Cathy (who is originally from Rochester), in West Hollywood. Since Costello was booked out of West Hollywood, they planned on settling down there. It was perfect until… He booked a gig in the Bahamas and took his new bride with him, planning a stop over in Rochester to see her folks and his in Syracuse. Along came the stork. “We got pregnant in The Bahamas,” Costello says. “And we decided to have the baby in Rochester before heading back West. Well, I booked a six-week gig at Val’s Lounge on Monroe Avenue,” which is now the Otter Lodge. “We became the hottest group in town.

We stayed there for three and a half years, six nights a week. Five nights were with my trio; the sixth night was jazz night, and I brought in Lew Soloff from Blood, Sweat and Tears, Slide Hampton, Chuck Mangione.” Remember, he was just visiting. They were still planning on going back to California, he says. “But now I’ve got a couple of kids.”
Costello recalls one phone call he made in Rochester that changed his whole life. “I’m reading the paper one morning, and I see the Red Wings got a new general manager, Don Labruzzo,” he says. “And as a kid growing up in Syracuse, I wanted

to be a ball player. So I called Don and said, ‘What do you think about having music at the games?’ And he said, ‘Wow, we’ve never done that before. Let’s do it.’” Costello signed a one-year contract with the Rochester Red Wings. It was 1977. “Cathy said, ‘I thought we were going to live in California,’” Costello says. “She’s still waiting. That one phone call changed everything. If I didn’t go with the Red Wings, I would have gone back to California.” Costello found himself off the road and in the ballpark. He had to modify his musical approach slightly. “It was a transition,” he says. “But what I did, and the reason I think I’ve lasted so long, when I took the job with the Wings is I didn’t want to sound like other organists. They sounded like they were playing roller skating rinks, kind of old-fashioned. I decided the crowds were the same people that were coming to the clubs; there was a wide age range, so I did a wide range of things.” And he still does — blues, jazz, Top 40. So on any given night, you’re bound to hear anything from Mancini’s “Baby Elephant Walk” to something from Bruno Mars. With his hip jazz riffs to old school renditions of classics, Costello reads the game, plugging in when and where it’s necessary. The crowd claps, shouts, and
sings accordingly. And more than one team has tried to woo Costello away from the Wings. Nothing doing. He’s received pitches from the Mets, the Yankees, the Rockies, and the 76ers. “I turned them all down,” he says. “It’s like a big family here.”
After 40 years at it, Costello roles with
the changes, like when players choose to walk up to the plate for their turn at bat to canned music and not Costello and the organ. “That’s the new thing,” says Costello. “Every player has to have his song, and if he’s in a slump, he’s gotta change the song.” This doesn’t bother him in the least. “I play a lot,” he says. “I get a free hand to pretty much do whatever I want. They give me a lot of spots to play. It’s funny, growing up I wanted to be either a ball player or a musician. I’ve got the best of both worlds; I’m a musician at a ballpark.” He still plays in clubs, particularly in the off-season. For the last five years, he’s had a residency with saxophonist Roger Eckers at Charlie Brown’s in Penfield. But he laments, pining for the scene he came up in. “It’s so different now from when I came to town,” he says. “30 years ago, you played 9 p.m. to 2 a.m., six nights a week. Now you play one night here, then one night there.
“When I played Ben’s Café across from Eddie’s Chop House, within walking distance there was something like seven clubs going six nights a week. Now our gigs are like 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m., or 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. I come home now and my wife says, ‘What are you doing home? You used to leave at this hour.’” All the hard work and talent hasn’t gone unnoticed. The Red Wings are celebrating “70-ish” Costello’s 40 years in baseball with a commemorative Fred Costello bobble head. “You know,” he says. “Throughout my career, I’ve done some really nice things: working in Vegas, some national TV. You work hard at it, and you feel like you’ve accomplished something. People couldn’t care less; they’re so enthused I have a bobble head. It’s like you’ve finally made it. People are more impressed with the bobble head than anything else I’ve done in my life.”

Chris James & Mama G.
Amos Hoffman is one of those great, old-fashioned Kenny Burrell-style guitarists. His latest album, “Back to the City,” showcases his brisk and breezy style on a winning combination of originals and standards. Along for the ride for much of the album are Omer Avital, bass; Duane Eubanks, trumpet; Vince Ector, drums; Asaf Yuria, saxophone; and Itai Kriss, flute. Hoffman has come a long way since arriving in New York from Jerusalem in the early 1990’s and playing in subway stations. It wasn’t long before he was working with bassist Avishai Cohen, singer Claudia Acuna, and others. Hoffman, who is also a virtuoso oud player, has spent years back in the Middle East, and has established an international reputation. But on “Back to the City,” he plays nothing but straight-ahead jazz (with a little bit of blues on his “Alone in South Carolina”). Other originals, like the title tune and “Mr. X,” are glorious hard-bop romps for the whole band, but it’s also nice to hear Hoffman’s solo takes on a complex Thelonious Monk composition like “Pannonica” or a beautiful standard like “Darn That Dream.” — BY RON NETSKY

Maria Gillard Trio. The Little
The four members of Spin Cycle are so in-demand for recording sessions and performances that their collective side-man duties cover every corner of jazz and pop, from Joe Lovano and Lee Konitz to Etta Jones and Cheap Trick. Each member of the quartet — Scott Neumann, saxophone; Tom Christensen, drums; Pete McCann, guitar; and Phil Palombi, bass — has performed and recorded albums as a leader. But when these first-call musicians bring together their experiences, skills, styles, and sensibilities, the result is a first-rate album. Christensen (an Eastman graduate) and Neumann are the leaders, contributing six and four compositions respectively. Their experience crossing genres is apparent in Christensen’s tunes like “The Groove” and “Funky Sea,” both of which live up to their titles. Neumann’s tunes range from the rock and fusion wildness of “Smart Aleck” to the avant-garde leaning “Drift.” And both composers are capable of beautiful ballads, as evidenced by Neumann’s “Crystalline” and Christensen’s “Trust.” Not surprisingly, given the members of this band, superb solos abound throughout. — BY RON NETSKY

Music we were recording the demo, they weren’t finalized. I made up the whole second verse looking at a bookshelf while I sang. I think of that song as a child-like song; it’s sort of the love mythologies of somebody who is not well read. Is Secret Pizza a democracy or a benevolent dictatorship? Shaw: Not benevolent. Avery: We’re an oligarchy. DeWaters: It’s too democratic. Shaw: Too democratic? Well, I can take
that away if you want me to. We definitely make important decisions together, day to day stuff. It’s like a republic and not a democracy because we are our own government but we all have different roles. We’re all part of the cabinet. How do you think Secret Pizza fits into the Rochester scene? DeWaters: I think we’re a bit of the black
sheep. I don’t think we sound like a lot of other bands that are around right now. Shaw: Some of my favorite bands are my friends here in Rochester. You can point to any band and ask who do they sound like, and they would say, “I don’t know,” but you still love those guys. We’re not genre defined any more.

Pizza party Secret Pizza FIND THE MUSIC AT SECRETPIZZA.BANDCAMP.COM [ INTERVIEW ] BY ROMAN DIVEZUR
Local garage punk quartet Secret Pizza is keeping it real. The group of friends is taking a DIY approach to its music, and it’s keeping complete control over its own destiny. It’s all about having a good time — and leaving all the baggage of unrealistic expectations behind. Secret Pizza was established in summer 2013 by Phil Shaw (guitar, vocals), Giana Caliolo (drums, vocals), Tim Avery (guitar), and Kamara Robideau (bass), and put out its self-titled five song EP in 2014. When Robideau departed amicably, Matt DeWaters joined the ranks. Secret Pizza has now released its debut full length album, “Nothing Needs to Happen” (including a press on vinyl), and recently completed a pretty ambitious tour with a string of East Coast dates that also dipped into Ohio and western Pennsylvania. The band is a likeable bunch, and its tunes cover you in blankets of guitar roar, or will charm you with a slow, churning burn. 16 CITY JULY 13-19, 2016
All four members of Secret Pizza were as loose as pinballs when we shot the breeze at a coffee joint — maybe it should have been a pizza parlor — on Park Avenue. An edited transcript of that conversation follows. City: You’re coming off a tour. Describe one of your most memorable gigs. Phil Shaw: It was in Providence. We followed
a band called Hott Boyz that was playing in this pretty quiet space. It had these beautiful harmonies, and one girl was playing an electric auto-harp, and we felt that if we played too loud it was going to suck. So we all turned down to half; my amp was on half. It was one of our better shows. It was super intimate; people were standing one foot way from where we were playing. Tim Avery: The venue had this glowing cloud … Matt DeWaters: That didn’t catch on fire somehow.
What are some lessons that you’ve learned in this band? DeWaters: Patience. Giana Caliolo: Everyone communicates
differently, and you have to learn how to
interpret communication styles. Getting to know each other so we can understand each other is important. Shaw: In terms of music, this is the first time I’ve actively thought about the voice of three other people when writing songs. Is song writing something you can turn off, or is it always running in the back of your mind? Shaw: It took us three years to write eight
songs. So it’s something we turn off. If we couldn’t turn it off, we’d be more prolific. Avery: For me, I’m always writing songs. I’m always thinking of melodies and progressions, they’re always out there. It’s not like a crazy thing. Shaw: That’s true. For the song “Not About a Lover” we came to practice and Tim was like, “Look, I wrote this melody.” I said, “Oh, that’s really pretty. I’ll take that part, write another one.” Your song “Oh My My” has a Pixies-like vibe, describe the creation of that. Shaw: That’s the nicest thing anyone has
ever said but saying that song feels like the Pixies is like saying a toy shark feels like a real shark. Those were lyrics that even when
What was it like recording “Nothing Needs to Happen”? Avery: It was amazing. But we realized very
early on that we didn’t know how to play our songs individually, which was a scary thing, so we recorded everything live and did the vocals later. It was a grand total of 10 hours for the entire recording. Shaw: That’s how Steve (Roessner of Calibrated Recording) wanted to do it: he was like, “Come in, play your songs, and the only thing I’m going to tell you is whether or not it sounded OK.” He got me psyched by letting me hear David Lee Roth singing without any instrumentation behind him. I was feeling super awkward because four of my best friends are sitting in the other room listening to me go [makes loud singing noises] which was really ridiculous. He was like, “Listen to David Lee Roth, this is how he did it,” and that was more ridiculous than me.

Los Angeles, California’s Intronaut occupies a rare space in prog-metal. While the band openly indulges in the herbal supplements you’d expect a band with album titles like “Valley of Smoke” to condone, Intronaut’s time signature defying riffs suggest a more focused and musical approach than their bong-ripping compatriots. With a near-constant stream of genre-bending releases under its belt since its beginnings in 2004, the band’s latest LP, 2015’s “The Direction of Last Things,” navigates freeform jazz, death metal growls, and jaw-dropping drumming with time-tested grace and precision. “Tune low, play slow” this is certainly not. Intronaut plays with Entheos and Moon Tooth on Saturday, July 16, at the Montage Music Hall, 50 Chestnut Street. 7:30 p.m. $15. themontagemusichall.com; intronautofficial.com. — BY ALEXANDER JONES [ POP/ROCK ]

FOLK | HARPETH RISING
The three women behind Harpeth Rising — cellist Maria Di Meglio, banjoist Michelle Younger (of the fantastic Younger Gang), and Jordana Greenberg, violin — are classically trained musicians that have decided to forgo Vienna in favor of Appalachia. The group’s chamberfolk, overlaid with beautiful three-part vocal harmonies, certainly contains a hint of classical influence and discipline, but it’s a striking, soulful take on old-time, folk, and bluegrass. Harpeth Rising will perform Thursday, July 14, at Abilene Bar and Lounge, 153 Liberty Pole Way. 8:30 p.m. $15$18. abilenebarandlounge.com; harpethrising.com. — BY JAKE CLAPP Jazz Vocalist Madeline Forster.

Special Event
The Fringe Festival’s big outdoor headliner will be the STREB Extreme Action Company. PHOTO PROVIDED
Fringe Festival announces its lineup [ PREVIEW ] BY REBECCA RAFFERTY
This year’s First Niagara Rochester Fringe Festival will include outdoor performances by the nerve-wracking STREB Extreme Action Company, a rare appearance by comedian Patton Oswalt, a breakdancing and hip-hop competition, and a worldpremiere show by the creators of last year’s “Cabinet of Wonders.” The 10-day festival, celebrating its fifth year, will feature 500-plus performances — more than 100 of them free — taking place at more than 20 venues Thursday, September 15, through Saturday, September 24, in and near downtown Rochester. STREB Extreme Action Company is the festival’s big free outdoor headliner. Founded by Rochester native Elizabeth Streb, the troupe combines dance with daring feats: In one past act, a company member lay beneath a suspended I-beam, rapidly spinning the beam before sitting up 20 CITY JULY 13-19, 2016
slightly – the beam just millimeters from his head – to grin at the audience. The STREB performances will be on two nights – Friday, September 16, at 8, and Saturday, September 17, at 5, 7:30, and 10 – rather than the single night of previous years’ outdoor headliner shows. The location: Parcel 5 on Main Street, part of the former Midtown Plaza (site of the Trombone Shorty show at this year’s jazz festival). Alternating with the STREB performances on Saturday, some of the region’s best dance crews will take the stage to present an all-style breakdancing and hip-hop dance battle in Fringe’s debut Fringe Street Beat. Local dance crews are invited to participate and compete for a $1,500 prize (enter at rochesterfringe.com). Comedian, actor, and best-selling author Patton Oswalt, who participated in Rochester’s first Fringe, returns this year on Sunday, September 18. Oswalt will perform in Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre at 8 p.m. This will be one of the few performances
this year by Oswalt, whose wife died recently. Tickets are $35-$80. Returning again is the jewel-box venue Spiegeltent, at the corner of East Main and Gibbs Streets. Last year’s world-premiere “Cabinet of Wonders” was so successful that Fringe is bringing back its creator, Matthew Morgan, who will present another worldpremiere show, “Cirque du Fringe: MIRACLE CURE.” Co-hosted by Morgan and comedian Mark Gindick, the show will feature highwire acts. Tickets to this theater-in-the-round variety show are $21-$33 (increasing to $24$36 after September 1). Rochester native Pandora Boxx, who gained national attention on RuPaul’s Drag Race, will perform her bawdy cabaret-style “The Worst Show Ever” in the Spiegeltent on Friday and Saturday, September 23 and 24, at 9:30 p.m. A sell-out hit ever since its debut in 2013, Silent Disco returns to the Spiegeltent at 11 o’clock all four weekend nights of Fringe.
And debuting this year is Disco Kids on Saturday, September 24, at noon. Located adjacent to the Spiegeltent, the Spiegelgarden will again host free activities, including the Pedestrian Drive-In — outdoor movie screenings using Silent Disco headphones — and the new Green Room, a lounge area created by Rochester Mini Maker Faire from recycled materials. A free community theater piece by Method Machine and Fringe founding board member David Henderson — who presented 2014 Fringe’s “Spoon River Rochester” — will be staged from 6 to 6:40 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, September 23 and 24. This year’s show, “Grimm’s Mad Tales,” based on the famous fairy tales, will involve 200 participants, including Mayor Lovely Warren, performing along Gibbs Street while the audience walks among them. Remote Rochester, the site-specific, immersive, sell-out hit theater piece by Berlin’s Rimini Protokoll, returns this year with multiple daily performances. Tickets are $28 (but increase to $33 on September 1). Free entertainment, including bands and street entertainers, show highlights, and chalk art, as well as food and drink vendors, will be located on Gibbs Street during Fringe’s final weekend: Friday, September 23, from 5 to 11 p.m. and Saturday, September 24, from noon to 11 p.m. While Fringe organizers curate the headliners and all of the free outdoor entertainment, most of the 2016 shows were submitted by artists earlier this year and programmed by the participating venues. This year’s venues include Bernunzio Uptown Music, Blackfriars Theatre, the Eastman School of Music’s Kilbourn Hall and Sproull Atrium, Gallery r, Garth Fagan Dance Studio, George Eastman Museum’s Dryden Theatre, Java’s Café, The Little, Lyric Theatre, MuCCC, RAPA @ SOTA, Rochester Contemporary Art Center, RMSC’s Strasenburgh Planetarium, The Strong, Theatre ROCS Stage, and Writers & Books. Additional Fringe-curated events will take place at Parcel 5, Gibbs Street, the Spiegeltent and Spiegelgarden, Kodak Hall, and around the City of Rochester. Events at these venues will include all genres of art, theater, dance, music, and comedy, as well as interactive installations and site-specific performance pieces. The 2016 Rochester Fringe Festival’s full schedule and all tickets are online at rochesterfringe.com.

SPECIAL EVENT | “BOOKS ALIVE!”
On Saturday, July 16, Writers & Books (740 University Avenue) will present “Books Alive!,” a multimedia experience featuring regional noise and music acts paired with spoken word performances by writers. “Basically, we’re going to take over the first floor of W&B and put on this long literary-music-visual art performance,” says Director of Adult Programs Albert Abonado, who is co-coordinating the event with Autumn in Halifax singer-songwriter David Merulla. “The idea is to bring together the different mediums for a loud, slightly chaotic, hopefully exciting sensory experience.” Visuals by Dr. Hamburger will accompany performances by Alicia Hoffman and Timothy Elswick, Karsten Brooks, Roc Bottom Slam Team, Lindsay Herko, Crush the Junta, Autumn in Halifax, and Joe Tunis. “Books Alive!” will take place 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. Tickets are $10, and can be purchased online at wab. org.

THEATER | “ART”
The Rochester-based Theatre/Theater Company will perform the Tony Award-winning dramatic comedy “Art” this weekend at MuCCC. A mixture of humor and existential crises, “Art” follows a successful dermatologist, a self-proclaimed mentor, and a neurotic groom-to-be in a struggle for power and reconciliation within their long-term friendship. Conflict begins when the dermatologist takes to the frequent purchase of fine art pieces, much to the disapproval of his “mentor.” Their third friend makes an attempt to defuse the situation, but things quickly escalate to an all-out-war as they attempt to prove who is right, who is wrong, and who knows best. “Art” will be performed at MuCCC (142 Atlantic Avenue) Wednesday, July 13, through Friday, July 15, at 8 p.m., and Saturday, July 16, at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. Advance tickets are $9 for students and seniors, and $12 general; $12 for students and seniors, and $15 general at the door. As part of Rochester’s Pride Week, the July 13 performance will be “pay what you can” with proceeds benefiting Rochester Pride and participating LGBTQ organizations. muccc.org. — BY MARY WALRATH My Sister’s Gallery at the Episcopal Church Home, 505 Mt.

THEATER | “BLOODY BLOODY ANDREW JACKSON”
JCC CenterStage this weekend will begin a run of “Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson” which tells the story of our seventh president, using modern rock and emo music. In the show, Andrew Jackson is a loose cannon rock star and his voters are the star struck fans. This show started in Los Angeles in 2008 and quickly moved its way up to Broadway by 2010. The topics they touch on include Jackson’s populist stand point during his presidency, and references our modern politics with some comic relief, which we might need during this election time. “Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson” will be performed at JCC CenterStage, 1200 Edgewood Avenue, Saturday, July 16, through Sunday, July 24. Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday shows start at 8 p.m.; Sunday shows at 2 p.m. Admission is $29; $27 for members; $20 for students.

FILM | “WE HATE MOVIES” LIVE PODCAST
The “We Hate Movies Podcast” will be coming to Rochester to record a live episode on Saturday, July 16, 9 p.m., at The Little Theatre (240 East Avenue). The comedy group will provide live commentary for no one’s favorite live-action Ninja Turtle movie: 1993’s “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III,” which finds the Heroes in a Half Shell traveling back in time to ancient Japan and assisting a scrappy band of villagers in their rebellion against an evil samurai warlord. Yeah, even when I was 10, I thought that was lame. “We Hate Movies” is a podcast taking aim at bad movies and giving them a hilariously snarky skewering. Previous episodes have covered an array of schlock, including “Ewoks: The Battle for Endor” and beloved (by me) 90’s comedy “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead.” Tickets to the live podcast event are $18 general admission or $15 for members.

Nice day for a wild wedding “Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates”
“Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates” is the enthusiastically foul-mouthed movie based loosely (very loosely) on their story. (R), DIRECTED BY JAKE SZYMANSKI Zac Efron and Adam DeVine play Dave NOW PLAYING and Mike, two fun-loving, wild and crazy guys who specialize in bringing raucous fun to any social engagement. At least, that’s how they see [ REVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW it. However, home videos from Stangle family gatherings throughout the years provide evidence Back in 2013, real-life brothers Mike and Dave that’s not entirely true: the brothers are screw-ups, Stangle faced the prospect of finding dates to and their boisterous behavior – however welltheir cousin’s wedding, eventually deciding that intentioned – typically ends in disaster. the most effective option was to place an ad Hoping to prevent another catastrophe, their on Craigslist. With a bit of tongue-in-cheek parents (Stephen Root and Stephanie Faracy) humor and a memorable image featuring demand that Mike and Dave bring dates to the their faces Photoshopped onto the bodies of upcoming Hawaii destination wedding of their centaurs, the ad went viral, ultimately resulting younger sister, Jeanie (a very game Sugar Lyn in TV appearances and even a book deal. Beard). The idea being that worrying about their Benefitting from an enormously likeable cast, dates will keep them in line and leave them less opportunity to get into any trouble. The brothers meet their match in Tatiana (Aubrey Plaza) and Alice (Anna Kendrick), two party girls who happen to catch one of Mike and Dave’s TV appearances and see an opportunity Zac Efron, Anna Kendrick, Aubrey Plaza, and Adam DeVine in “Mike and Dave to con their way Need Wedding Dates.” PHOTO COURTESY 20TH CENTURY FOX. into an all-expenses-
paid resort vacation. The (slightly) sweeter of the two, Alice is still nursing her wounds after being jilted at the altar, and Tatiana decides that a trip to Hawaii is exactly the thing to help get her groove back. All they have to do is appear to be nice, respectable girls. Alice impulsively claims to be a hedge-fund manager (despite having no idea what that means), while breaking out a pair of librarian glasses and a No. 2 pencil is all it takes Tatiana to convince Mike that she’s a sweet-natured schoolteacher. The girls seem perfect, and just like that, the boys have found their dates. Raunchy hijinks ensue. The first feature from director Jake Szymanski, who made a name for himself with digital shorts on “Funny or Die” and HBO, “Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates” is at its root another in a long line of comedies about twentysomething bros who learn that it’s time to grow up and take their first shaky steps toward maturity. Szymanski opts for the improv-heavy approach of most modern comedies, where the methodology is clearly “throw everything at the wall and see what sticks.” And while some of the jokes don’t land, many are very funny. It’s certainly better than the last movie to co-star Efron and Plaza, January’s “Dirty Grandpa,” still a leading contender for the worst film of the year. Over the recent years, Efron has blossomed into an appealing comedic lead. Here he’s mostly tasked with the straight-man role, but his more subdued performance provides a nice counterbalance to DeVine’s manic energy. Mike’s self-deprecating nature kept DeVine’s rubber-faced

mugging from tipping over into obnoxiousness, though your mileage may vary. The four leads have great chemistry, but while Efron and DeVine’s characters get title billing, it’s Alice and Tatiana who are the film’s true stars. Plaza and Kendrick get all the best lines and gags, and the two immensely appealing actresses make the most of it. Plaza continues to prove her comedic range, working to distinguish herself from her role as the deadpan misanthrope April Ludgate on the wonderful “Parks and Recreation,” and Kendrick is delightful as always. I’d watch 10 more movies that team her and Plaza together. Andrew Jay Cohen and Brendan O’Brien’s script combats the bro comedy somewhat by indulging in the idea that women can be just as raunchy as the men. Even Sugar Lyn Beard’s Jeanie gets to revel in the filth, thankfully sparing us the cliché of the shrewish bride character. This isn’t to say that “Mike and Dave” is interested in moralizing. The subversive “Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising” (also written by Cohen and O’Brien) showed that injecting a message doesn’t preclude the possibility of also being hilarious, but hardly anyone went to see “Neighbors 2,” so maybe audiences haven’t quite signed on for that yet. Still, even when the material isn’t exactly groundbreaking, this equal-opportunity trend is one I’m happy to see continue.

The history of the City’s 19th Ward dates to the late 1700s and early 1800s, when a dense forest area at what is now the intersection of Brooks Avenue and Genesee Street was cleared and developed as a center of trade along the banks of the Genesee River. With the establishment of the area’s first tavern and store, where Colonel Isaac Castle was the proprietor, the community became known as Castletown. Development of the 19th Ward grew and changed over many decades, with important milestones such as construction of the Elmwood Bridge and the City’s purchase of a tract of land to serve as Genesee Valley Park. This historic backdrop provides a sense of context for this 1920 home located at the corner of Thurston Road and Roxborough Street. The front entry, facing Roxborough Street, leads to a foyer with beautiful wood trim and a glass paneled interior door. The rich wood trim of the foyer continues throughout the dining room to the right and living room to the left, which are marked by arched entries, cove molding and original hardwood floors. The living room is lightfilled, with generous windows on three sides. A glass paneled doorway on the east side of the living room leads to a covered outdoor porch, which is a hallmark of the home. The porch is bounded by a heavy wooden balustrade, providing privacy and the feeling of an indoor-outdoor room. A spacious kitchen with its own entry to the
outside and small side porch is immediately adjacent to the dining room. In addition, the home is ideal for a separate apartment or “in-law” quarters, as the west side of the first floor also contains a service kitchen, family room, separate entry, and smaller side rooms. A wide staircase of hardwood flooring and a small landing leads to the second floor. The master bedroom is spacious and bright, with an adjoining dressing room flanked by built-in shelving. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are on the second floor. The third floor could easily serve as a living space or bedroom, as it is light-filled with several windows, built-in shelving and abundant closet and storage space. The home’s location on a corner lot allows for a great deal of both sun and shade. The two-car detached garage faces Roxborough Street. With a total area of 2,190 square feet, this home is wellsuited for a family. 203 Thurston Rd. is listed with William Tierney of Nothnagle Realtors (585-381-4770), at a list price of $115,000. The 19th Ward is well known for its engaged citizenry and the 19th Ward Community Association, one of the oldest neighborhood associations in the city. by Susan Wylie Susan is a city resident and pursuing a Master of Architecture degree at the Rochester Institute of Technology.

The State encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure. There are government agencies, legal aid entities and other non-profit organizations that you may contact for information about foreclosure while you are working with your lender during this process. To locate an entity near you, you may call the tollfree helpline maintained by the New York State Banking Department at 1-877-BANKNYS (1877-226-5697) or visit the Department’s website at www.banking.state. ny.us.

Fun [ NEWS OF THE WEIRD ] BY CHUCK SHEPHERD
Blessings, Guaranteed
More and more churches (“hundreds,” according to a June Christianity Today report) offer hesitant parishioners a “money-back guarantee” if they tithe 10 percent (or more) of their income for 90 days — but then feel that God blesses them insufficiently in return. The South Carolina megachurch NewSpring instituted such a program in the 1990’s and claims that, of 7,000 recent pledgers, “fewer than 20” expressed dissatisfaction with the Lord. Advocates cite the Bible’s Book of Malachi, quoting God himself (according to Christianity Today): “Test me in this.” “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse” and “see if I will not pour out so much blessing” that “there will not be room enough to store it.”
New World Order
A leading Chinese orthopedic surgeon continues to believe that “full-body” transplants are the next big thing in medicine, despite worldwide skepticism about both the science and the ethics. The plan for Dr. Ren Xiaoping of Harbin Medical University calls for removing both heads (the deceased donor’s and the live recipient’s), connecting the blood vessels, stabilizing the new neck, and “bath(ing)” spinalcord nerve endings chemically so they will connect. (Critics say it is impossible to “connect” spinal-cord nerves.) According to a June New York Times dispatch, doctors regularly denounce China’s ethical laxities
(though Chinese officials term such denunciations “envy” at China’s achievements).
Suspicions Confirmed
— (1) In June, District Attorney Jerry Jones in Monroe, Louisiana, dropped drug and gun charges against college football players Cam Robinson and Hootie Jones (who play for University of Alabama but are from Monroe) — declaring that the “main reason” for his decision is that “I refuse to ruin the lives of two young men who have spent their adolescence and teenage years working and sweating, while we were all in the air conditioning.” (2) A Philadelphia “casting” agency solicited “extras” to show up at polling stations on the April 26 Pennsylvania primary day for candidate Kevin Boyle, who was running against state Sen. John Sabatina — offering $120 each (plus lunch and an open bar). Since most polling-site “electioneering” is illegal, the probable job was merely to give voters the impression that Boyle was very popular. (Sabatina narrowly won.) — In January, a Chicago Tribune investigation revealed only 124 of the roughly 12,000 Chicago cops were responsible for the misconduct complaints that resulted in settlements (since 2009) — with one officer, for example, identified in seven. (A June Chicago Reporter study claimed the city paid out $263 million total on misconduct litigation during 2012-2015.)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): It’s your smart talk that will attract attention. Keep the words flowing, and you will slowly but surely win over the person you are pursuing. During your conversation, you’ll discover the physical attribute desired by your heartthrob, making it easy to make a couple of adjustments to your appearance.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Your changeable mood may interest some people you meet this week, but the one you want to impress will be a little unnerved by your inconsistency. Avoid flirting with anyone and everyone, and focus your attention on the partner you want to get to know better. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t be afraid to make the first move. Express your feelings and offer unique romantic suggestions to someone you are attracted to, and you will get a favorable response. Follow through with plans that offer the person you are pursuing greater incentive to want to get to know you better.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t veer off track when asked questions about your past. Be upfront when someone you want to pursue is trying to find out more about you. Everyone has baggage, and unless you are open and honest about yours, you aren’t likely to hang on to anyone you encounter. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Mingle, travel and participate in activities that interest you. You will attract interest if you are a willing candidate when asked to try something new. Your proactive personality coupled with your mysterious, nonchalant way of presenting who you are will be hard to resist.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll have tough choices to make when it comes to love and romance. A change will be required if you are going to turn a lopsided connection into a workable arrangement. Trying to keep the peace and giving in all the time doesn’t make for a healthy union. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You’ve got all the right moves to entice someone to stand by your side. You will be a smooth operator, offering topical conversation filled with romantic innuendoes. Pursuing someone just as unique as you will lead to a rewarding, long-lasting connection.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll have trouble seeing through someone chasing you. Don’t be fooled by big talk and empty promises. Take a wait-and-see approach before you let intimacy creep in to any new relationship. While you make seek adventure, conservatism should be your choice. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your stability and strength will attract plenty of partners. Make a romantic choice based on what the partners you are pursuing have to offer in return. You will find true love and happiness if you can find someone who can keep up with you in all aspects of life.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You will be drawn to colleagues or clients you deal with. Before you consider crossing a line by mixing business with pleasure, consider the consequences if it doesn’t work out. You will face fewer problems and a better chance finding love if you look for someone outside of your professional boundaries. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Stick close to home if you are looking for love and romance. Long-distance relationships will be difficult to sustain. You are more likely to find that special someone in your neighborhood or at local community functions. Open your eyes, and you will meet someone very special.
