2011 Nazareth Arts Center Dance Fest If you’ve got an appetite for dance, the 2nd Annual Nazareth College Arts Center Dance Festival will keep your plate full from this weekend through next. This year’s festival offers up an array of events, including outside performances, lectures, master classes, community dance classes, and strolling performances on both the Erie Canal and University Avenue’s ArtWalk. The four main-stage performances, however, are what should have you riveted. Two of the featured companies — Rochester’s own Garth Fagan Dance and New York City’s Bill T. Jones/ Arnie Zane Dance Company — boast between them close to 20 Bessies/New York Dance and Performance
Awards. And that’s not counting the three Tony awards. What’s not to recommend? Speaking of awards, the festival announced this spring that it has formed a partnership with the Bessies that creates a new prize at the annual Bessie Awards. The award will give established New York City companies that have not yet toured the opportunity to do so, with Nazareth having the first claim on the touring performances. Nazareth’s first shot at that fresh, out-of-town talent via the new award will emerge at the 2012 Nazareth College Arts Center Dance Festival. For this year’s festival, we are already awash in established talent.

Farmworkers have rights, too
On June 16, a group of Wayne County residents, farmworkers, and supporters traveled to Albany for an appointment to meet with state senators to lobby for farmworker rights. Upon passing through the routine screening into the Senate chamber lobby, they were stopped by the sergeant at arms and told to leave under threat of arrest by the New York State Police. These are our neighbors attempting to exercise their democratic right to speak with their senators. They were not protesting, making noise, or acting without civility. They were singled out perhaps because they were not attired in expensive suits, perhaps because they are Hispanic. So instead of exercising their democratic rights, they were delegated to the status of second-class citizens, about which they had appointments with senators. Where you stand on the issues of farmworker rights, whether you think farmworkers deserve the same rights as other laborers, is a moot point. The fact that citizens of this country were refused the right to enter a public building (in fact were threatened with arrest) and speak to their elected representatives at a time which was scheduled is NOT the democracy for which we are all fighting. Senator Nozzolio, who represents the district in which these US citizens live, has “requested a formal inquiry into this matter, to be conducted by the Secretary of the New York State Senate, the highest administrative officer in the Senate.” Please send an email to your state senator or to Senator Nozzolio (nozzolio@nysenate. gov) in support of our efforts to City

Stocking shock at Wegmans on East
On all our recent trips to the East Avenue Wegmans, we have been unable to find popular brands of items that we are accustomed to buying there. The missing include Helluva Good Cocktail Sauce, Polly-O Mozzarella (by far the best brand), and Great Northern Quilted toilet paper (rated by Consumer Reports as both the strongest and the softest.) It’s as if Wegmans was engaged in an under-handed marketing ploy, removing branded items that compete with their own, generally inferior, store-brand versions. This theory was confirmed by our latest disappointment. We were truly shocked to find that the only size of Edy’s Slow Churned ice cream in the case was the single-serving size. No sign of the popular 1 1/2 half quart size. It seemed very odd, since Edy’s is by far the most consumer-preferred brand of light ice creams, and a lot of room in the ice cream freezer was given over to far less popular brands and lines. We turned the corner of the freezer case, and there was the explanation and confirmation of our theory: a large display of Wegmans’ new item, their Extra Churned light ice cream. We bought some to try — Cappuccino Chocolate Chip — and it was terrible. Far too sweet, and neither my wife, our guest, nor I were able to discern any coffee flavor whatsoever. We are not alone. Several of my neighbors have made the same complaint to us about the stocking on East Avenue, as have other frustrated shoppers we have met in the aisles. And registering complaints with Wegmans does no good. I have written three times about this, twice on their website and recently by US post to Mary Ellen Burris, senior vice president of consumer affairs. I have yet to receive the courtesy of a reply.

On the Emily Good case: Why
didn’t Good just back up to at least the middle of her yard and tape from there? Instead she moved a foot and ran her mouth about her rights. She was pecking for a fight for her 15 minutes. MANNY COLFAX
The arrest of Ms. Good was clearly not a question of safety. Cops are supposed to be trained to judge the level of threat in a given situation. If Officer Krupke REALLY thought Ms. Good posed a danger to him or his partner, then he clearly needs to be put on a desk until he receives some remedial police training. And by the way, one can respect the RPD without giving them blind and unquestioning obedience. To do otherwise takes us down a road we DO NOT want to travel! LUDDITE

Visited Durand Beach once...won’t be back. Countless cigarette butts, tampon applicators, and other debris littered the sand, and the stench from the sewage treatment plant conveniently located across the street was overpowering. VANESSA CURRITOCK
On Rochester’s young police force:
A couple of years ago I was working late in my offices downtown. I went outside to smoke a cigarette and two police officers pulled over quickly and aggressively interviewed me. They treated me like a criminal that needed to prove to them that I was not. After they ran my info through their computer, they let me be. It was a pretty awful experience for me. They had no cause to talk to me at all, much less treat me like a suspect hiding some criminal activity. Fast forward to today. I moved my home and business to the suburbs. Somehow, I expect many other people have had these experiences and acted the way I did. SCOTT
Thank you for focusing on some of the logistics involved in police work. Police officers ultimately have a high-risk job serving the public, one in which keen judgment and instinct works hand in hand with law and procedures. They deserve our support, encouragement, and gratitude for the work they do. M. JAE PETERSON

COMMENTARY | BY CHRISTINE CARRIE FIEN
Emily Good and a series of unfortunate events The situation involving activist Emily Good has become volatile and, frankly, a little scary. As someone who spends a lot of time watching the Rochester Police Department told me, it’s an unnecessary, unproductive problem where nobody wins. I absolutely believe that citizens have the right to record the cops in the performance of their duties, and that recordings have played an invaluable role in bringing the despicable actions of rogue cops to light. The Rodney King beating comes to mind, naturally, as does the wellknown video of an altercation between a cyclist and a cop in NYC’s Times Square. (The cop claimed the cyclist was charging him, while a video shot by a bystander clearly showed otherwise.) Good says her video was to shine a light, or something like that, on racial profiling (the man shown with the cops on Good’s video is black). Fine. Is this part of a larger effort? What methodology is she using? Is she gathering data and research to support or disprove whatever her assertions may be? Has she talked to people who study this sort of thing for a living? Has she approached leaders in the black community for their input? Because occasionally grabbing a video camera to record a random traffic stop doesn’t really seem like a comprehensive approach to me. (Maybe Good is, in fact, doing these things. I’m asking because I don’t know.) It lacks meaning and context. I’m not saying racial profiling doesn’t exist. Of course it does: no rational person would deny that. Is anybody talking about racial profiling, however, as a result of the Good incident? No, they’re talking about Emily Good. And has Good used the pulpit she’s received as a result of this incident to talk about racial profiling? Has she said what a tragedy it is that message got lost in the ensuing media cyclone? Now let’s talk about the cops. Rochester Police Chief Jim Sheppard and union President Mike Mazzeo have praised the arresting officer’s demeanor and professionalism that night. I completely understand the need to gain control of a scene by asserting your authority, but what other relationship in the world, save maybe prison guard to prisoner, mirrors the interaction between Good and her arresting officer that night? You wouldn’t treat customers or clients that way. Police have an obligation to communicate effectively.
Is anybody talking about racial profiling, as a result of the Good incident? No, they’re talking about Emily Good.”

The second incident, where cops ticketed cars belonging to Good’s supporters, is more disturbing, in my opinion, because it goes beyond the isolated actions of one cop. It’s quite possibly a sign, as my cop-watcher friend says, of a department “that isn’t thinking well.” And Good’s supporters have responded to what they perceive as police brutality by practicing brutality of their own: threatening cops, allegedly posting an officer’s home address online, posting web comments like “I hope that [expletive] dies,” and causing police to worry about their safety as well as the safety of their families. Unnecessary. Unproductive. Nobody wins. Recruits apparently spend a lot of time on police-community relations at the academy, but maybe interaction with citizen-journalists needs to be part of the curriculum. Everyone’s got a camera these days and citizens are repeatedly told that we should have no expectation of privacy when we’re out in the public. No public humiliation is too trivial to be spared a Facebook airing. Cops should have the same expectation. Maybe more so. (Which makes the arresting officer’s behavior that much more baffling.) I’m told by those who should know that it’s not too late to salvage this situation. Chief Sheppard needs to reach out to Emily Good and her supporters. Likewise, the Good crew needs to reach out to the cops to demonstrate that they really want to address these issues and not just throw rocks. This has not been our finest hour.

NYSUT suing State Ed
Months after winning $700 million in federal Race to the Top education funding, the State Education Department is being sued by the New York State United Teachers union over the rigorous teacher-evaluation process that was part of the SED’s application for the funds. NYSUT says the Board of Regents overstepped its authority when it created the new regulations.
Slight increase in lead cases
Last year saw the first increase in the number of Rochester-area children with elevated lead-levels in their blood, according to the Monroe County Department of Health. Cases increased from 283 in 2009 to 290 in 2010. A possible explanation for the increase after years of decline is a 16-percent decrease in the number of children tested for lead last year. State law says that children should be tested at age 1 and again at age 2.

RCSD Principal Kathleen Denaro used billboards to generate interest in the new STEM High School. This billboard was visible from the inner loop near State Street. PHOTO BY MATT DETURCK EDUCATION | BY TIM LOUIS MACALUSO
Billboards promote school for science and math The Rochester school district isn’t what you would call a big advertiser, and it’s not typical of individual schools to do much of their own advertising. But Kathleen Denaro, principal of STEM High School, says she knew she needed to do something bold to help build interest in the district’s first high school dedicated to science, technology, engineering, and math. STEM High School opened last September on the Edison campus with about 200 ninth graders. Expanding to a full high school over the next three years means Denaro has to continually replenish her ninth grade. But getting students to consider STEM programs is challenging, she says.
“My kids didn’t come here as mathematicians and scientists,” she says. But once they participate in something like a robotics team, they’re sold, she says. Denaro decided to try something unconventional to recruit STEM High’s 2011 freshman class: billboard advertising. She launched a threemonth ad campaign involving 10 city billboards promoting STEM High. Her gamble with a $20,000 grant — funding that could only be used for advertising — has paid off, she says. STEM High’s enrollment is already filled to capacity for next year, which is about 200 students, she says.
The campaign was not designed to only recruit freshmen, however, Denaro says. It is also being used to increase awareness about the new school and to overcome some public concerns. For example, STEM High and a second school, the Robert Brown School of Construction and Design, are being phased in on the Edison campus, while the four existing schools at Edison are being phased out. “There are currently six schools at Edison,” Denaro says, “and that can be a little confusing.”
The Rochester Police Department had budgeted about $2.3 million in overtime costs for 2010-2011, but police officials conceded that the actual number would be quite a bit higher — about $990,000 over budget. They said the initial $2.3-million figure was unrealistic: “a stretch goal.”

RPD overtime exceeds budget
DEC: Fracking on private land OK
Police overtime has been a stubborn sore spot for the City of Rochester. The department has, in the recent past, averaged about $5.5 million in overtime costs a year, and hit a high of around $8 million in 2007-2008. But Executive Deputy Chief George Markert said at a budget hearing last month that he considered the $8-million number an anomaly directly related to the nowended Zero Tolerance initiative. Overtime has come down “significantly” over the last four to five years, he said. The Rochester Police Department had budgeted about $2.3 million in overtime costs for 2010-2011, but Markert and Police Chief James Sheppard conceded that the actual number would be quite a bit higher — about $990,000 over budget. Both men said the initial $2.3-million figure was unrealistic: Markert called it “a stretch goal.” The RPD has budgeted $2,885,800 for overtime in the 2011-2012 budget, an increase of about $800,000. “There will always be some overtime in the operation of the department,” Markert said, citing unexpected vacancies and time that officers must spend in court.
At the same budget hearing, City Council member Adam McFadden asked about the possibility of returning the police department to seven sections. The RPD collapsed James Sheppard. FILE PHOTO from seven to two sections in 2004, and McFadden said he thought the department’s relationships with the community have suffered as a result. One of the reasons for the reorganization was to save on overtime costs, McFadden said, but it doesn’t appear that significant savings have been realized. He asked for a cost-analysis of the old system versus the new, which Sheppard said he would provide. Council members also asked about the Patrol West Division. The RPD has approximately one year left on the lease for the space, which is located in a plaza on Jay Street. Markert said the space would either be improved to better meet the RPD’s needs, or another location would be found. “We’d rather not go through the aggravation of a move,” Markert said.

The Department of Environmental Conservation says the state should allow high-volume horizontal hydraulic fracturing on private land, but with restrictions. | The DEC’s recommendations accompany a revised draft environmental statement, which analyzes the technique’s potential environmental impacts and lays out ways to mitigate harm. The public will have 60 days to comment on the document, beginning in August, DEC Commissioner Joe Martens said during a press conference last week. | The DEC recommends banning all fracking within 4,000 feet of the watersheds that supply New York City and Syracuse. Both cities have unfiltered water supplies. | It also recommends banning surface drilling in all state parks, forests, and wildlife preserves. | On private land, the DEC recommends restrictions on how close a well can be drilled next to private or municipal water supplies or wells. | Martens said it’s not likely that any fracking permits will be issued before next year. The draft has to go through the public comment process and then further revisions. A final report is expected at the end of the year, Martens said. | The environmental statement’s executive summary is available at http://www.dec.ny.gov/energy/75370.html.

POLITICS | BY JEREMY MOULE
Jim Alesi’s new friends Just one month ago, Republican State Senator Jim Alesi faced a tarnished legacy and, it was generally thought, a limited political shelf life. Most thought of him as the politician who sued two of his constituents after breaking his leg on their property. Alesi didn’t have permission to be there, and he filed the lawsuit one day after the deadline for the couple to press trespassing charges. Alesi eventually withdrew the lawsuit and apologized. Fast forward to June 2011 and Alesi is one of the heroes of New York’s marriageequality movement. He was the first Republican senator to support Governor Andrew Cuomo’s bill and his support proved critical to the bill’s passage. Alesi has earned the gratitude of some leaders in the local and state LGBT communities. The senator has “a newfound popularity,” says Gregory T. Angelo, state chair of the Log Cabin Republicans. (City’s attempts to reach Alesi were unsuccessful.) “People talk of Jim Alesi with sincere gratitude,” says Anne Tischer, a local marriageequality advocate. “They see him as a human being who has helped their families.” Alesi’s future in local and state politics is uncertain, however. He has said he’ll run for reelection in 2012, but the state Conservative Party as well as same-sex marriage opponents have threatened to come after the senator, politically. Several as yet unnamed conservatives have reportedly expressed interest in running against him, and leaders of the National Organization for Marriage, a religious group that opposes same sex marriage, say the organization will spend up to $2 million to defeat the four yes-voting Republican senators. State and local LGBT leaders say they’ll back Alesi, and Angelo says Log
People talk of Jim Alesi with sincere gratitude. They see him as a human being who has helped their families.” ANNE TISCHER
Cabin Republicans is prepared to provide resources to Alesi and the other Republicans who voted for the bill. Empire State Pride Agenda, Human Rights Campaign, and Marriage Equality New York have made similar pledges, which they’re already making good on via events and publicity. Some wealthy donors have also pledged money. New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is one such donor; he’s also served as a benefactor of sorts for Senate Republicans. Alesi’s vote will also help him keep the support of labor groups, which have consistently backed the senator in the past. Unions joined the marriage-equality fight this time around and conditioned their support on a “yes” vote for the bill. “He made all the right choices for all the right reasons and I certainly believe he made it with his heart,” says Ove Overmyer, vice president of CSEA Local 828. Marriage-equality advocates say they

believe Alesi’s vote and the statements he made supporting it, are sincere. But when Alesi first announced his position, some conservative political leaders and even some of his Senate colleagues questioned his motives. A quick look at the senator’s history will tell you why. Alesi’s position has evolved significantly over time. In 2003, he co-sponsored a Senate bill that would have prohibited state recognition of same-sex marriages in New York. In 2009, he voted against marriageequality legislation, which he later explained

Local marriage-equality advocates held several rallies to encourage state legislators to pass a bill granting same-sex couples the right to marry. FILE Photo
was a political decision. Video clips of him casting that vote — he was the first Republican on the roll — have circulated on the Internet for the past two years. The clip shows the senator burying his head in his hands, pausing, and delivering a clearly conflicted “no” vote. Leading up to the 2011 vote, marriageequality supporters flooded Alesi’s office with calls and letters. But they also met with him and told him their stories, which personalized the issue. Alesi explained his position to Capital Tonight, a statewide political program that airs on YNN, prior to the vote. “I think that it sends a message, not only to my Republican colleagues but to everybody, that we’re coming to a point where, if we’re going to live in a country that is based on freedom and equality, that freedom and equality have to exist for everyone,” he said. Todd Plank, a local LGBT activist who worked behind the scenes for marriage equality this year and in 2009, says Alesi was one of the strongest allies that marriageequality advocates had in the Senate Republican conference. And he deserves the community’s support, Plank says. “He stepped up when it mattered most,” he says. Alesi’s new supporters say that Alesi has positioned himself as the model for a new Republican: fiscally conservative but socially progressive. In a more general sense, they say the senator displayed independence and leadership: qualities that voters look for. There’s a numbers aspect to Alesi’s political
future as well. It has been said that the Conservative Party carried the senator to victory in 2012. But part of the party’s success is due to its consistent core principals, including its opposition to same-sex marriage, so it’s almost certain that Alesi will not get the
party’s endorsement for 2012. In the last election, Alesi received fewer votes on the Republican line than his opponent, Mary Wilmot, did on the Democratic Line. However, when all of Wilmot’s lines were added together, and Alesi’s votes on the Republican and Conservative lines were combined, Alesi came out ahead. That’s been spun two ways. The most common conclusion is that the Conservative Party has been vital to Alesi’s success. But there are about 3,200 registered Conservatives in the 55th Senate District, yet in the 2010 election, Alesi received more than 7,900 votes on the Conservative line. So the second story is that many of Alesi’s Conservative votes came from independents and Republicans voting on the Conservative line. Overmyer says Alesi’s going to attract some independent voters. But he may lose other votes because he backed marriage equality. Other issues will undoubtedly factor into the voters’ decisions, as well — taxes and spending have a tendency to dominate. If Alesi gets primaried, however, it’ll be critical for him to attract Republican votes, and marriage-equality supporters may not be able to provide the votes to cushion him. Only registered Republicans vote in GOP primaries and the conventional wisdom is that the LGBT community trends Democratic. It’s possible for that to change in the 55th District, and Angelo says there is a significant Log Cabin Republican contingent there. The groups and individuals that advocated for marriage equality do, however, have an established and expansive ground operation, which they could put to use on Alesi’s behalf. So do the unions. “We have pride in him,” Plank says.

The Town of Rush Highway Department will host a free electronics recycling event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, July 9. Computers, cell phones, printers, televisions, and most items with a circuit board are acceptable, but to be sure contact the Town of Rush at 533-1770. Items can be taken to 804 Rush-West Rush Road.
from our blogs Rochester school board President Malik Evans says that the board is in no hurry to find a permanent superintendent to replace Jean-Claude Brizard. “We’re not going to rush it,” Evans says. The board recently held a forum to obtain public input on the matter. Participants emphasized selecting someone with Rochester-area roots and putting an end to City

what some people describe as allowing the school district to be the “superintendent stepping stone.” Evans says an outside firm will be hired to help with the search. But the premise that the applicants for the interim position will not be considered for the permanent job seems to be softening. — TIM LOUIS MACALUSO

Early last year, longtime Monroe Avenue neighborhood bar and restaurant Woody’s came under new ownership. The venue underwent alterations and renovations, including adding new plasma televisions, a remodeled outdoor patio, new seating, and a private party room, among other changes. Last month the owners launched a new menu and completed their 14-month rebranding of the business by introducing its new moniker, Brickwood Grill. “We had a vision for what we wanted it to become all along,” says partner Christine Isselhard. “But we wanted to make everyone feel comfortable and ease our previous patrons into the changes.” Isselhard and co-owner Jeff Limuti, along with their business partners, have tried to include their patrons every step of the way, including launching a contest to let customers pick the establishment’s new name. After fielding suggestions for months, a poll was posted online and the Brickwood Grill was born, named for the bar’s rich woods and exposed brick walls. The new menu features a wide selection that caters to the bar crowd, as well as the lunchtime business crowd and even some more upscale dinner fare. Those looking for pub grub will appreciate classics like wings (served buffalo style, sweet and sour, barbeque, or garlic parmesan), potato skins, and onion rings, as well as some more unique finger foods like Adirondack chips (natural-cut chips drizzled
with house-made balsamic bleu cheese sauce and topped with scallions and applewood smoked bacon) or the Canadian classic poutine (French fries smothered in gravy, topped with cheese curds). The menu also features the standard 3 Ss — soups, salads, and sandwiches. Notable inclusions include a Waldorf salad (with sundried cranberries, crumbly bleu cheese, candied walnuts, and green apples) or the Irish burger (topped with shaved corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing). Dinner entrees include a 16 oz. ribeye steak, chicken parmesan or French, and a lobster ravioli covered in a sherry wine-cream sauce. The restaurant has also launched a Sunday brunch buffet ($14.95, $5 kids 12 and under) which runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and features made-to-order omelets, Belgian waffles and a variety of breakfast and lunch sides. Late night patrons can enjoy karaoke on Thursdays, acoustic music on Fridays and live bands on Saturdays. Brickwood Grill is located at 250 Monroe Ave. Prices range from $6 to $23. It is open Monday-Saturday 11 a.m.-2 a.m. and Sundays 11 a.m.-10 p.m. For more information, call 730-8230 or visit brickwoodgrill.com.
Cooking lessons in a dream kitchen
If you’re looking for inspiration in the kitchen — from cooking techniques to remodeling ideas — the Culinary Center situated in the showroom of Vella Bath and Kitchen (237
Pittsford-Palmyra Road) offers both. For the first time, a summer schedule of cooking classes is being offered featuring a variety of lessons taught by local culinary luminaries. The season kicks off on Monday, July 11, 6-8:30 p.m., with a class titled “Truffles, Truffles & More Truffles,” taught by Tina Bennett, executive pastry chef and owner of Vanilla Swirl Cakery (1000 Turk Hill Road). The class will focus on how to make and decorate artisan truffles, including red velvet, chocolate, and vanilla. The class costs $65. On Saturday, July 16, 1-3:30 p.m., pit master Brian Wemett (co-founder of the Roc City Rib Fest) will teach a class entitled “Good Smoke BBQ,” which will focus on the art of “low and slow” cooking, as well as techniques to smoke some of the more challenging cuts of meat. The cost to attend is $69. Several sold-out classes are also running this summer, including a course taught by Chris Januzzi (executive chef of the Rabbit Room in Honeoye Falls) on Monday, July 25, and one from Chef Tin Tran of Webster’s Prime Steak House on Wednesday, August 3. Those interested in sold-out classes can be added to a wait list. A full course schedule as well as registration information can be found online at vellaculinarycenter.com.

City
the 2nd Annual Nazareth College Arts Center Dance Festival
If
you’ve got an appetite for dance, the 2nd Annual Nazareth College Arts Center Dance Festival will keep your plate full from this weekend through next. The nine days and nights of this year’s festival offer up an array of events, including outside performances, lectures, discussions, master classes, community dance classes, art exhibits, and strolling performances on both the Erie Canal and University Avenue’s ArtWalk. The four main-stage performances, however, are what should have you planning not to leave town next week. Two of the featured companies — Rochester’s own Garth Fagan Dance and New York City’s Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company — boast between them close to 20 Bessies/New York Dance and Performance Awards (basically, the dance world’s equivalent of an Academy Award). And that’s not counting the three Tony awards. What’s not to recommend? Speaking of awards, the festival announced this spring that it has formed a partnership with the Bessies that creates a new special jury prize at the annual Bessie Awards. The new award will give established New York City companies that have not yet toured the opportunity to do so, with Nazareth having the first claim on the touring performances.
[ PREVIEW ] BY CASEY CARLSEN
“Maybe we’ll get the first look at a company that might become a big future star, the next Garth Fagan,” says Jamey Leverett, artistic director of Rochester City Ballet. Fagan himself advocated providing younger groups with places to perform. “Rochester will be seeing some of the new and fresher talent,” he told City in a recent interview. Nazareth’s first shot at that fresh, out-oftown talent via the new award will emerge at the 2012 Nazareth College Arts Center Dance Festival. For this year’s festival, we are already awash in established talent. Like Garth Fagan, Bill T. Jones is a big name
in modern dance. Both men are founders and artistic directors of internationally acclaimed modern-dance companies; both are choreographers whose bodies of work have significantly influenced and shaped the flow of contemporary dance. In 1974, Jones co-founded the American Dance Asylum — known for its innovative and sometimes controversial productions — with Arnie Zane and Lois Welk. Although Jones began his dance training at the State University of New York at Binghamton, he worked with Welk at the SUNY Brockport Department of Dance, and participated in a workshop there led by Fagan in the summer of 1972. At that time, Fagan was breaking ground with his own company, Bottom of

the Bucket, But...Dance Theatre, later to become simply Garth Fagan Dance. But today Fagan can still recall working with the young Jones. “He was just brilliant,” Fagan told City in a recent interview. “A shot in the arm. It was clear to me that he was going places.” Go places he did. As did Fagan. Besides the six Bessies, Jones’ major honors include a 1994 MacArthur Genius fellowship and the 2010 Kennedy Center Honors. He was inducted into the American Academy of Arts & Sciences in 2009 and named “an irreplaceable dance treasure” by the Dance Heritage Coalition in 2000. His ventures into Broadway theater resulted in a 2010 Tony Award for Best Choreography in the critically acclaimed “FELA!,” a musical Jones co-conceived, co-wrote, directed, and choreographed. He also earned a 2007 Tony Award for Best Choreography for “Spring Awakening,” as well as an Obie Award for the show’s 2006 off-Broadway run. Fagan was awarded a Tony — along with a host of other prestigious awards — in 1998 for his choreography in Broadway’s “The Lion King.” In 2009 The New York Times named his company’s performance of “Mudan 175/39” as third of the top six dance-watching moments of that year. Five Bessies have gone to Garth Fagan Dance members, and the company has been cited for its excellence and originality with a New York Governor’s
Arts Award. It has also been featured on national platforms such as “The Tonight Show” with Jay Leno and three times on PBS’s “Great Performances.” Fagan’s company opens this year’s festival with a performance on Friday, July 8; Jones’ company will close it on Saturday, July 16. In between, on Thursday, July 14, the two men will meet on stage to discuss the influences and philosophies that guide their choreographic choices. The discourse will be moderated by Deborah Ronnen, chair of the Visual Arts Committee of the New York State Council on the Arts. This is live dance history; don’t miss it. Like last year’s headline performer,
Elizabeth Streb’s STREB Extreme Action Company, Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company pushes the limits of movement. Its performances ask, what can movement do? What issues can movement address? The company will perform two separate shows on two different nights of the festival, with pieces that will span the 30-year history of the company. The first evening’s program will include two duets from Jones’ groundbreaking work “Body Against Body,” which launched Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company into the spotlight in the early 1980’s. “The two duets in ‘Body Against Body’ may look playful, but they’re thoughtful, slow-moving pieces that demand close

Goode
attention, like observing sculpture,” Jones explained from New York City in a recent phone interview. “It was through these early duets that Zane and I first made our name,” Jones says, speaking of the late Arnie Zane, his early partner in both the founding of the company, this specific dance piece, and his personal life. “No one was making work like we were making then. We were not classical dancers, we were not ballet dancers, we were not African dancers. We were doing something much more informed by contact improvisation and very much about the visual world. I am a 6’1” African-American man and Arnie was a 5’4” Jewish-Italian man, and we were exploring these differences in the way we danced together,” he says.
The duets, “Monkey Run Road” (1979) and “Blauvelt Mountain” (1980), are both athletic and thought-provoking, an early and striking example of Jones’ penchant for exploring contrasts in his work — contrasts in movements, contrasts in form, contrasts even in the physical and emotional make-up of different individuals. At Nazareth, “Monkey Run Road” will be danced by Talli Jackson and Erick Montes; “Blauvelt Mountain” will be danced by Paul Matteson and Jennifer Nugent. By reviving this pivotal and intimate work with different dancers, Jones is re-opening it for new impressions and interpretations. “Serenade/The Proposition,” the other work by Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Company to be presented in the festival, is less abstract.

Images of dance While you’re enjoying the many Dance Festival events on the Nazareth College campus, stop into the Colacino Gallery in the Arts Center to take in “Of Flight and Shadow,” a photography show by Ken Riemer, featuring FuturPointe Dance. The images feature graceful bodies floating midair, haloed by light from above and mimicked by their shadows below, which become abstract studies of geometry. “My work with dancers captures the intersection of movement, light, and time,” says the artist in a provided statement. A result of ongoing collaboration with the dancers, the body of work is a result of capturing precise moments, without the use of Photoshop or other alterations. “The dancer’s shadows add a dimension that enables the viewer to better understand movement and form, thus providing a greater appreciation of the beauty, strength and grace of the subject. The shadows work in harmony with their physical counterparts, squally critical to the final composition,” Riemer says. An opening reception will take place Thursday, July 7, 5:30-8:30 p.m., and the show will remain on display throughout the festival. Hours for the Colacino Gallery are 5-8 p.m. daily, and admission is free. For more information visit naz.edu. — BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

Stepping Up continues from page 11
In fact, it is a piece steeped in American history, contemplating the legacy of Abraham Lincoln and the varying perspectives of history itself. This large-scale work includes sung text taken from Lincoln’s documented words and writings, along with excerpts from the speeches of his contemporaries, an original score blending classical and folk, iconic sets, masterful lighting, video, and a full cast of costumed dancers. Garth Fagan Dance will also evoke history
with its performance of an excerpt from Fagan’s newly choreographed work, “Madiba,” which, Fagan says, is Nelson Mandela’s clan name, a name that refers to a person’s ancestors and their place in society. The piece is a heartfelt tribute from Fagan to a world leader he speaks of with reverence. “Meeting him was one of the highlights of my life,” Fagan says. “I was so in love with him, love with a capital ‘L,’ which includes love and pride for all that he’s achieved. A handshake and a hug from him are positively life-altering.” The work is set to a score by South African composer Abdullah Ibrahim and contrasts strong, rhythmic sections with soothing adagio. The powerful Vitolio Jeune will be seen partnering newcomer Tere Lyn Jones in a duet during this excerpt. The festival audience will see an excerpt from “Until, By & If,” a Fagan piece whose choreography was inspired by a Derek Wolcott poem, and which hasn’t been staged
since 1990. Part of “Landscape for 10” will also be performed, affording viewers a chance to contemplate the sensuality of five pairs of dancers to the soothing music of Brahms. The company will conclude with “Thanks Forty,” last year’s celebratory work with which Fagan marked the milestone of his company’s 40th anniversary. Look for Nicolette Depass’ opening solo “MUSE – Work” set to Shostakovich to see a superb example of what a choreographer and a dancer can achieve when they have worked together for 17 years. Fagan intimately understands Depass’ gifts and elicits the movements to define them with his demands on her in this solo. Much fewer than six degrees of separation
seems to be the rule in this dance festival. Guy Thorne used to be in Fagan’s company; less than two years ago he started his own. FuturPointe will perform on the main stage at the festival in a shared performance with Rochester City Ballet. Led by Thorne and co-directors Heather Roffe and N’Jelle Gage, the company’s mission is to broaden the appeal and spectatorship of contemporary dance. FuturPointe describes itself as a fusion company. It combines dancers and choreographic styles from a variety of genres and training, including modern dance, popular-social-folk dance, Caribbean, African, Latin, and ballet. The use of multiple art forms in its productions creates a unique aesthetic. The company stages multimedia collaborations with videographers, visual artists, composers, musicians, puppeteers, and costumers. Already, FuturPointe has toured and performed in national venues. Jamey Leverett, artistic director of Rochester City Ballet, invited the young

company to share a program with them in the festival. “They have come together quickly as a company,” she says. “They are seasoned professionals with a high level of talent.” Leverett’s company is also made up of seasoned professionals. Leverett herself is an accomplished, awardwinning choreographer and teacher; her choreography was chosen for “Ballet Builders, New Choreographers on Point.” Among other distinctions, her work has been performed at the Jackson International Ballet Competition and the 50th anniversary of Gian Carlo Menotti’s Festival dei Due Mondi in Spoleto, Italy. This past spring, Leverett’s new, complex, gothic work “The Blood Countess” premiered to great enthusiasm here in Rochester. Next year,
Leverett hopes to take it on the road. For the festival, she has chosen to present three old favorites: “Push and Pull,” “How to Break a Heart,” and “Lumavoce.” “Push and Pull” was one of her very first contemporary pieces, and remains one of her strongest. “Heart” includes the spoken word of former Hole band member Emily Autumn set to the music of Bach. “Lumavoce” is a delicate, yet powerful work that complements movement with minimalist lighting and live singing. FuturPointe, known for performing in
unconventional places, will present a free public performance on the canal towpath at Schoen Place in Pittsford on Sunday, July 10. Last year at the festival the group

performed on ArtWalk, outside Starry Nites Cafe on University Avenue, in another sitespecific performance. But on Saturday night, July 9, FuturPointe will be premiering an excerpt from its new work “Sahdji.” This is Thorne and Gage’s rendition of a short-story ballet about an African love triangle. The original was first performed in 1931 and based on a play written by Richard Bruce during the Harlem Renaissance, then set to music by William Grant Still. In FuturPointe’s version, the setting is urban contemporary and depicted using photographic stills, signature pieces of art used to tell a story. The photographs are the
work of local photographer Carrie Mateosian, who works regularly with the company. After FuturPointe and Rochester City Ballet each perform, they will join forces and present an upbeat fusion piece set to the music of violinist Regina Carter. “How will we aesthetically blend? That’s the magical part,” Thorne says. “We’re combining different dance languages, what they have and what we have. That allows us to be creative. The interplay between our voices, the weaving, that’s what makes it exciting.” Likewise, that’s what makes this festival
exciting — that spark of unpredictability, the hope of unforeseen brilliant moments,
the unfolding of a cohesiveness that turns a gathering of accomplished artists into a larger happening, an event. Other companies participating in this year’s festival are Daniel Gwirtzman Dance Company, PUSH Physical Theatre, Park Avenue Dance, Bush Mango Dance and Drum, Borinquen, Flower City Ballet, Drumcliffe Irish Dance, The College of Brockport Department of Dance, Shaolin Academy Lion Dancers, Da Igramo, Frances Dances, Daystar: Contemporary Dance-Drama of Indian America, Bharata, and LehrerDance. “We had an excellent response to the festival last year and lots of positive feedback,” Leverett
says. According to Nazareth, more than 6000 people attended at least some portion of the 2010 festival, its inaugural edition. “It’s great to bring in outside companies and also to feature local talent. I hope that someday it will be like the Rochester Jazz Festival. We know there’s plenty of room for this festival to grow; Rochester is very receptive to the performing arts.”

She’s two years back in the game, and a successful self-produced album, “It’s All True,” brings her back into Rochester’s open arms and ears. Her style is straight and to the point, and yet a refreshing twist within the genre. Think of it as rockabilly haiku.

In his short career, Dee has opened for R&B legends like Al Green and Etta James, but has shown the ability to inject excitement and electricity into a newer, rootsy sound much like Amos Lee or John Legend. Jesse co-produced his debut solo album, “Bittersweet Batch.” The standout track “Slow Down” has a beautiful, easygoing swing groove and encapsulates Dee’s free-flowing approach to his craft. Rochester’s own funk powerhouse, Giant Panda Gorilla Dub Squad, fills out the evening’s bill. — BY DAVID YOCKEL JR.

there is a revelation that Ramones co-founders Joey and Johnny never spoke to each other during much of the group’s career. The singer and guitarist relied on other band members to act as intermediaries, including CJ Ward, an ex-Marine who was hired to play bass when Dee Dee left the group. Ward, who adopted the name CJ Ramone, performed with the band until the group’s retirement. Now it’s as close as you’ll get to hearing those locos live. And CJ Ramone is an American hero and a punk-rock saint. — BY ROMAN DIVEZUR

CLASSIC ROCK | Styx
Founded in the early 1970’s, Styx arrived on the fringe of the prog-rock scene without getting sucked into its largesse. At the pinnacle of this group’s powerful sound was vocalistcomposer Dennis DeYoung, whose precision, annunciation, and grandiose melody lines brought a bit of the theatrical to the mix. This proved beneficial in that it set the band apart from the Emerson, Lake, and Palmers of the day, and detrimental as other members leaned more toward rock. This led to several break-ups, although the group’s touring lineup features mostly original members. Even with a few Styx missing — including DeYoung, sadly — songs like “Lady,” “Lorelei,” “Come Sail Away,” “Renegade,” and “Babe” still endure. Yes also appears in a roundabout kind of way.

PSYCH ROCK | The Vacant Lots
If you spend even five minutes walking around downtown Rochester these days, you might succumb to defeat — or dare to be inspired. The empty graves of industry and materialism are calling, all the way from Burlington, Vermont. Prepare for heightened aural arousal by way of the psych-rock duo the Vacant Lots. Combining swirling guitar and hammering percussion, complemented by abstract visuals and haunting vocals, this group is anything but vacuous as it churns the forgotten sounds of the everyday into a lush extravagance. The Lots weave sparkling webs of hope and unseen treasures. The Lobster Quadrille and INN also perform.

CLASSICAL | Carillon Recital
Monday, July 11
ROCK | 2011 Warped Tour
Housed in the Rush Rhees Library at the University of Rochester is the Hopeman Memorial Carillon, one of only seven carillons in New York State. The carillon is a musical instrument made of at least 23 bells, with clappers connected to wires that are connected to hand and foot levers that resemble the keys and foot pedals of an organ. The carillonneur can play up to four notes at a time, using hands in loosely clenched fists upon the keys, and using feet upon the pedals. At the UR carillon, the performer sits at a console well below the 50 bells, which are some 186 feet above the ground and which weigh 6,668 pounds. Concerts will be held every Monday July 11-August 1, featuring performers from Asia, Europe, and North America. On the programs are music of Leopold Mozart, George Gershwin, and more.

I absolutely love going to The Vans Warped Tour each year. It’s encouraging to see kids congregate in a scene centered around so much music. And despite the everexpanding age gap between me and the average little punk rock darling, there’s something for the moms and dads and me. I’ll be there to dig organ-powered retro-reggae band The Aggrolites (pictured), hardcore Dropkick offshoots The Street Dogs, and ska-punk progenitors Less Than Jake. The rest will blend into the din, though I’ll have my ears on for something new. Want to come along?

Blowing Bach’s horn Summer Music Concert Series Christopher Gage, organ; Karen Hauge, flute Friday, July 8 Twelve Corners Presbyterian Church, 1200 S. Winton Road 7 p.m. | Free | 244-8585 TwelveCorners.org [ PROFILE ] BY PALOMA CAPANNA
One has only to say the word “Bach” to Christopher Gage to see his face light up. “Bach and I get along great,” says Gage. That’s not a bad thing if you are the Director of Music Ministries at Twelve Corners Presbyterian Church in Brighton. Since September 2010, Gage’s responsibilities have included overseeing the sanctuary choir, the handbell choir, music selection for services and special occasions, and playing the organ. Gage also created a three-part summer concert series for which he’ll perform in the second concert on July 8. Gage, 22, is a student in the 2012 class of the Eastman School’s Masters of Music Program. Originally from Rhode Island, he earned his bachelor’s degree of music in organ performance at the University of Delaware. Gage is also the first organist I’ve interviewed who walked all around the organ pipes in his church — the Twelve Corners model includes about 2100 — showing me, among other things, that the sound of the brass trumpets comes from brass pipes shaped like actual trumpets. 20 City july 6-12, 2011
of Organists in New York City, where he got to play on the organs of St. Ignatius Loyola, St. Thomas Episcopal Church Fifth Avenue, St. Bartholomew’s Church, and the Church of Saint Mary the Virgin. His list gathers its own rhythm and he starts listing: “These spaces, these acoustics, meeting these large figures in the music world… It was great finding out that there was a community of organists out there.” And then he skips to age 19 and studying abroad in London, and getting to play at The Temple Church, St. Lawrence Jewry, and Canterbury Cathedral. During that same trip, Gage went to Westminster Abbey and approached the organist after a Sunday church service and ended up with an introduction to the organ and some of its “great stories.” Although he wasn’t invited to play that instrument, it’s the only time he pauses in this Joycean narrative and his eyes are dancing, and I can see the hope that, someday, he’ll get his chance.
“They’re not the biggest brass trumpets in Rochester,” he says, “but they’re strong.” Gage also opened up the organ body, going under the hood, so to speak, of the church’s 1967 Casavant Frères. “This is very complex,” says Gage, gesturing to the innards of the organ. “It’s part manual and part electronic.” He also praises the sound the church affords. “The acoustics are better than the average American church, especially in the 50’s,” says Gage. “It’s a classic 1950’s design.” I ask Gage how an organist learns each different organ he plays upon — a far greater difference than a pianist sitting down to a predictable 88 keys. “You try all the different sounds individually — the general timbre, the dynamic levels, changes in dynamics from low to high. You check whether all the stops work all the time, and learn which ones are variable. And you review the mechanical considerations, the limited number of pistons, set the stops,” he says. Gage started out on the piano. He describes
himself as self-taught, and “noodling around a bit” before ending up in ragtime and jazz. But, at age 16 when he found the organ and started playing regularly for churches, the piano was abandoned. “The organ offers such a colorful palette of sounds in so many combinations. It’s beautiful.” When asked about any other organs he has played upon that were of interest, he starts with a single example of playing this past March upon the five-manual Möller organ at the National City Christian Church in Washington, D.C., which included a set of English handbells, playable from the organ. He goes straight into a pipe-organ encounter he had in high school for the American Guild
interest in this composer, whom so many piano students learn to hate. Gage tells me Bach was “something of a wild man,” explaining, “he held a church position, and he once asked the church council for four weeks’ leave to travel to see German-Danish composer and organist Dieterich Buxtehude, but he ended up returning three months later. The church council was not really happy with that, and then they started complaining that he was adding too many strange harmonies. Then he started getting into fights and calling someone a nanny-goat bassoonist.” And after that laugh, I get the insight into just how seriously Gage takes his passion. “It’s good if you bring a lot of energy to Bach — a lot of discipline,” he says. “I can put that metronome at a quarter note equals 40 in the DMajor Fugue, and I make it through to the end, and I have this burst through the counterpoint to the end of the piece, which is so triumphant. Bach always has such a glorious ending.” The July 8 concert will feature French and German music, including composers Cecile Chaminade (1857-1944), Gabriel Faure (18451924), C.P.E. Bach (1714-1788, son of J.S. Bach), Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767), and Christoph Willibald Gluck (1714-1787). Gage will be performing with Karen Hauge, flute, who was a fellow undergrad at Delaware. The third concert in the series will be performed on August 26, and will feature Alexandra Calvert, harp, and Steven Seigart, organ. As we exit Gage’s office, after the interview, I walk straight into a picture of J.S. Bach on a bulletin board in the hallway. I point out to him that this could not be a coincidence. “Yeah, Johannes [Mueller-Stosch, the previous organist at Twelve Corners] left me this whole box of stuff on Bach, and after going through it, the only thing that mattered was that his picture should be up to remind everyone about him.”

ART EVENTS | ARTHOUSE SUMMER
The Little Theatre preemptively answered the inevitable mid-summer cry of boredom by packing its schedule with a variety of entertaining, intellectually stimulating activities. Boasting a spiffy line-up of something for everyone, the list includes special screenings of foreign and indie films as well as episodes of a locally produced web series, readings by local writers in the Little Café, and special deals with other art houses in town. On Friday, July 8, the Little will kick off its Project 5: Take 2 series, which highlights fringe, independent, and local filmmakers by screening projects with little or no distributorship. Friday catch a screening of “If a Tree Falls: A Story of the Earth Liberation Front” (pictured; also screening Sunday, July 10), followed by the Norwegian flick “Troll Hunter” (also shows Sunday). On Saturday, July 9, titles include “Mia and The Migoo,” “Bad Fever,” “Septien,” and “Hobo with a Shotgun.” “William S. Burroughs: A Man Within” screens Sunday, July 10. On Monday, July 11, see “The New Blood” and participate in a talkback with director Ben Gonyo, followed by “What in Tarnation?! A Night with Nick Gurewitch and Friends.” Tickets are $8 per film. For more information, call 258-0444 or visit thelittle.org. A collaboration between the Little and Writers & Books will have two or three authors reading from and discussing their work in the Little Café on select Tuesdays this summer. Remaining dates are July 19 and August 2, 8-9 p.m. The readings are free to attend. Late summer events at the Little include the Picnic in the Parking Lot, Drag Night in the Café, the Emerging Filmmakers Series, and highlights from many of Rochester’s beloved film festivals.

ART EVENT | THE KNOCKOUT ARTIST
While many people respect modern art, it is also fun to mock its upscale randomness. What makes one splatter of paint art, and another garbage? Albany-based artist Abraham Ferraro (pictured, with one of his other projects, “Flight of the Chairs”) will both pay homage to and make fun of abstract art during his visit to Rochester Contemporary on Friday, July 8. Ferraro will perform his unusual “Knockout Artist” piece, which involves creating a work of art by being repeatedly punched in the face. The artist stands in a small, teetering ring for 12 rounds as a spring-loaded boxing glove punches him in the face. Throughout each round paint splatters on a canvas attached to his chest, creating an art piece. Don’t arrive in your best clothes in case of renegade paint splatter. The event will take place in front of Rochester Contemporary Art Center (137 East Ave.) 7:30-9 p.m. July’s East End Fest will take place nearby, with food and drink vendors and multiple stages featuring live music. For more details visit eastendmusicfestival.com. For more information on “Knockout Artist” visit rochestercontemporary.org or call 4612222.

FESTIVAL | CORN HILL ARTS FESTIVAL
The Corn Hill Arts Festival is always one of the most-anticipated summer events in Rochester. It is back again for its 43rd year with all of the art, jewelry, music, and food locals love. Last year’s Corn Hill Fest was accompanied by a major rain storm, but that still didn’t stop people from attending. If you don’t like looking at cool arts and crafts or eating cheesecake on a stick, go just to see the people. The event is estimated to bring 250,000 visitors, so you’re practically guaranteed to see someone you know. The 2011 Corn Hill Arts Festival takes place Saturday, July 9, and Sunday, July 10, right in the middle of the Corn Hill neighborhood (off Exchange Boulevard). There will be more than 400 arts and crafts vendors, as well as food booths, music, and kids activities. This year there will be a beer and wine garden where you can escape the crowded booths to drink a cold beer and listen to live music from local artists. Festival hours are Saturday 10 a.m.-6 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Admission is free. Visit cornhillartsfestival.com for more information, including parking and shuttle details, or call 262-3142. — BY ALEXANDRA CARMICHAEL

RECREATION | ONTARIO BEACH SPORTS & MUSIC FEST
Ever heard of pickleball? No, it does not involve tossing around brine-soaked cucumbers, although that sounds awesome. Pickleball is a relatively new sport that uses whiffle balls, wooden paddles, and a lowered badminton net. It is also one feature of the Ontario Beach Sports Fest. The festival runs Friday, July 8- Sunday, July 10 and includes pickleball, beach volleyball, pole vaulting, and bench-press competitions. The sports festival will also include the U.S Beach National Wrestling Championship on Saturday, July 9. Beach wrestling was recognized as an international style of wrestling in 2005 and is exactly what it sounds like: half-naked men (and women) wrestling each other in the sand. The competition is split into schoolboy/girl, cadet, junior, senior, and veteran age groups, as well as weight classes. The event is free for spectators. Ontario Beach Park is located off Lake Avenue. For more information on the event visit monroecountysports.org. — BY ALEXANDRA CARMICHAEL Rochester Orienteering Club Meet.

SPECIAL EVENT | FREE SUMMER MOVIES
Rochester’s fickle skies and temperatures provide a very slim window of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, so we try make the most of the good weather, even when the sun goes down. One way to extend your outdoor activities into the evenings is to take advantage of the free outdoor movie screenings offered by various venues and organizations. Monroe County Department of Parks will present the annual Free Movies in the Parks at Ontario Beach Park on Tuesday nights, and at Highland Park Bowl (1200 South Ave.) on Thursday nights. All films begin at dusk, and the schedules kick off July 12 at the beach with the popular, make-you-irrationally-paranoid-aboutLake-Ontario screening of “Jaws,” and July 14 at the bowl with kid-friendly “Yogi Bear.” For the remaining schedules, and more information, visit monroecounty.gov/parks or call 753-7275. If you find yourself with no plans for the wee ones on a particularly humid day, you also have indoor free cinema options. This summer, Regal Cinemas will also offer a series of free G- and PG-rated movie screenings at 10 a.m. every Tuesday and Wednesday. The deal is first-come, first serve, so check our local offerings at fandango.com or the Regal Cinema site at regmovies.com for what will be showing and arrive early to be sure you get a seat.

“Larry Crowne” (PG-13), directed by Tom Hanks Now playing
Tom Hanks began his extraordinarily successful career in a popular television situation comedy, “Bosom Buddies,” which may explain the weakness of his new movie, “Larry Crowne.” Although the picture employs a script based on some perfectly reasonable material, its writers, one of whom is Hanks, relentlessly seek out the most obvious, superficial, and even simpleminded solutions to the serious issues it raises, very like some weekly TV show, settling
at last for a few easy laughs and an almost academic neatness in its pat conclusions. Hanks plays the title character — couldn’t they think of a more evocative title, by the way? — a Navy veteran and an affable, industrious employee of a megastore that closely resembles Wal-Mart. Like millions of other Americans, he encounters the unexpected shock of losing his job; after choosing him as Employee of the Month nine times, his bosses, hardly a learned bunch, suddenly and unexpectedly fire him because, they say, he never attended college. Larry finds himself in a sadly familiar situation, searching desperately and fruitlessly for another job and owing his bank more on his mortgage than his house is worth. Again, like many others in his predicament, he decides to go to college, in this case, his local community college, where he signs up for a speech course taught by Professor Mercedes Tainot (Julia Roberts), which, as the dean has promised it will, changes his life. Apparently burned out and generally hungover, a guzzler of margaritas,

Professor Tainot, thank goodness, hardly belongs with all those touchingly inspiring instructors who so often appear in films about the academy. Her novelist husband now spends his days watching porn on the internet and contributing comments to blogs; their marriage naturally crumbles early in the movie, so that as every member of the audience surely knows, she and Larry will eventually get together. Fleshing out that essentially simple situation, the director hauls in a crew of mostly eccentric characters to create some minor complications and some incidental humor. Cedric the Entertainer, for example, plays — or rather, overplays — Larry Crowne’s next-door neighbor, who runs a continuous garage sale, charging outrageous prices, and dispenses buckets of advice, most of it useless. Pam Grier, of all people, abandons her usual tough action parts for a supporting role as one of Professor Tainot’s colleagues, a drastic switch from her days as Foxy Brown and other avenging angels. Perhaps most comically, Lieutenant Sulu from “Star Trek,” George Takei, his warp factor well under control, shows up as Larry’s economics professor. He uses his deep voice and precise diction amusingly, playing the part with a dry, ironic pomposity and apparently enjoying it immensely; he also actually teaches Larry something, enabling him to deal with his problems with his bank and settle a score or two.

More important, a classmate named Talia (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) unaccountably takes a liking to Larry, telling him he is “way cooler than he looks” and inviting him to ride with her gang. The gang consists of a couple of dozen motorscooter riders, a sort of low-rent, cute, and quite implausible version of the Hell’s Angels, which pretty much sums up the sophomoric juvenility of the movie. Talia and her friends remake Larry, changing his hairstyle, rearranging his furniture, and exchanging his geeky outfits for something more fashionable and way cool. In “Larry Crowne” even the customary obstacles to the course of true love work out with a minimum of fuss and absolutely no disappointment or heartbreak. Larry manages to leave his house and downsize his living space without too much pain; Professor Tainot kicks her indolent husband out and, despite a few bumps in the road, ends up in Larry’s arms. Fade out, roll credits. Although the movie provides a quantity of harmless entertainment and certainly radiates good humor and good nature, in a way it also trivializes some important contemporary issues involving the economy, joblessness, housing foreclosures, and financial insecurity. When it solves all those problems with minimal effort, some lighthearted dialogue, and a few lucky accidents, it suggests a much easier and happier world than the one we all inhabit, a falseness emphasized by its attractive gloss of Hollywood professionalism and the bright California sunshine.
Our Rochester Jewish Film Festival enters its second decade this year with another presentation of the best Jewish cinema from all over the world. The rest of this space belongs to six of the movies, so visit rjff.org for a full schedule and more details. A stirring documentary built around a dream subject, “Ahead of Time” recounts the singular 20th-century adventures of Ruth Gruber, who took her forwardthinking father’s advice to find a career and became both an eyewitness to and maker of history. In the years following her 1931 doctorate (at age 20!), Gruber reported on the lives of Soviet women for the New York Herald Tribune, escorted concentrationcamp survivors to America on a secret government mission, and chronicled, with pen as well as camera, British antagonism toward Jewish refugees bound for Israel on the ship Exodus 1947. The copious archival materials are a treasure and help

bring to life the reminiscences of the razorsharp nonagenarian, as feisty and humble as a hero should be. (Sunday, July 10, 2 p.m., Dryden Theatre) “I don’t give you what you want, but what you need,” Yankele Bride assures his lonely clients in “The Matchmaker,” a decent coming-of-age drama by Israeli filmmaker Avi Nesher (RJFF 2008’s “The Secrets”). “The Matchmaker” takes place in Haifa during the summer of 1968, as teenage Arik (Tuval Shafir) learns about life through his dealings with Bride, a transplanted Romanian Holocaust survivor who will serve as the bridge that connects Arik with silent history, the last generation still too scarred to recount what happened “there.” The story is ostensibly Arik’s, but Bride is the most compelling and nuanced character; he’s played by the excellent Adir Miller, whose tough exterior belies his intense sensitivity, a la Vincent D’Onofrio. (Sunday, July 10, 7:30 p.m., Dryden Theatre) The goals seemed so clear-cut that it’s easy to overlook some of the Civil War’s complexities, such as the paradox of a once-enslaved people working to deprive the similarly oppressed of their freedoms. Through rare photographs and insightful interviews with both historians and descendants, the enlightening “Jewish Soldiers in Blue and Gray” explores the role that roughly 10,000 Jewish men played in the War Between the States, from abolitionist rabbis in the North to eloquent Confederate statesman Judah P. Benjamin. The documentary also revisits Union General Ulysses S. Grant’s infamous General Order No. 11, which tried to battle the illegal cotton trade by calling for the expulsion of Jews in his military district. Then the Great Emancipator stepped in. (Tuesday, July 12, 2 p.m., JCC Hart Theatre) Using the 1953 London-toChristchurch air race as its jumping-off point, the lavish Dutch melodrama “Bride Flight” takes wing with three Dutch women
planning to begin anew as wives in New Zealand. Glamorous Esther (Anna Drijver) is eyeing a career in fashion, no-nonsense Marjorie (Elise Schaap) has her married life mapped out, and dreamy Ada (Karina Smulders) is already pregnant when she falls for her strapping seat-mate Frank (Waldemar Torenstra), who lost all he loved in the camps. The forgivably predictable tale unfolds in picturesque flashback from the present day, as they gather for a funeral (you will recognize twinkly-sexy Rutger Hauer as old Frank) and revisit long-held secrets. (Wednesday, July 13, 6 p.m., Little Theatre) Oscar nominee Jesse Eisenberg (“The Social Network”) puts his patented blend of naiveté and anxiety to perfect use in Kevin Asch’s “Holy Rollers” as Sam, a young Hasid who becomes a drug smuggler. Inspired by an actual narcotics case from the late 90’s, “Holy Rollers” observes Sam’s insular Brooklyn life of work and study, until rejection by his intended bride leaves him ripe for temptation by Yosef (Justin Bartha, “The Hangover”), the live wire next door. Cue brushes with danger and disavowal by both family and community, an unsurprising trajectory made interesting by the potent performances of Eisenberg and Bartha. (Wednesday, July 13, 9 p.m., Little Theatre) Barking attack sheep, angels on motorcycles, and a fast-talking guy in a cheap suit with a name tag that reads “God”; the first few minutes of “This Is Sodom” point to one of the all-out silliest comedies in recent memory. It recounts the Biblical tale of Lot (Dov Navon, “The Matchmaker”), a good man trying to avoid the notorious seductions in the city of Sodom. The King (Eli Finish, hilarious) has learned Lot will be saved when Sodom is destroyed, so he hatches plans for an intricate switcheroo. Think Mel Brooks at his most moronic; it’s a lot of dumb fun.

Film Previews Full film reviews available at rochestercitynewspaper.com. [ OPENING ] BAD FEVER (NR): This indie drama from writer-director Dustin Guy Defa tells the story of a humorless loner who attempts to win the admiration of a drifter with his debut performance at the local comedy club. Little BEGINNERS (R): Perhaps the peerless Christopher Plummer will finally win that elusive Oscar for his performance in Mike Mills’ autobiographical dramedy about an elderly man who announces to his son (Ewan McGregor) that he is gay.

Dryden (Thu, July 7, 8:30 p.m.) CLOSE-UP (1990): Abbas Kiarostami directed this blend of documentary footage and staged recreations to tell the true story of fellow Iranian filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf (1996’s “Gabbeh”) and the man who stood trial for impersonating him.

Beauty & Livability by Claude Bragdon 375 Westminster Road In the 1910s, influenced by the City Beautiful Movement and the Arts and Crafts style, Rochester architect Claude Bragdon designed his architecture with the vision of a more livable city. As part of this vision, he brought innovative ideas about the use of space, light, geometry and decoration to his designs. Bragdon designed the home at 375 Westminster Road in 1910 for a local businessman. That home stands today, true to its original design. This one-of-a-kind architectural gem is located on one of the most desirable streets in the sought after Park Avenue neighborhood, within walking distance of Park Avenue’s shops and restaurants and the Monroe Branch Library and YMCA on Monroe Avenue. The exterior of the house appears a harmony of simple lines; the only ornament is the geometric squares within the projecting two-story bay. The flared eaves of the main roof and portico add interest. Entering through the vestibule, light streams

the fireplace was the soul of the house and designed it as the focal point of the room. Beyond the living room through French doors, is the large dining room, which opens to a spectacular view of the sunroom, surrounded by leaded glass and flooded with light. The kitchen is adjacent to the dining room and has been updated in the spirit of Arts and Crafts livability that was Bragdon’s signature. A back stairway from the kitchen echoes the simplicity of the more formal front stairs. The second floor has four bedrooms. The master bedroom is connected to a smaller bedroom, which could be a sitting room or study. There are ample closets, drawers and cabinet space for linens. The finished third floor, with a kitchen, bedroom, full bath, and third room with a fireplace, could function as a home office or in-law suite. 375 Westminster exemplifies the Arts and Crafts dictum that Bragdon followed: “Have
into the front hall from the leaded glass in the vestibule, the French doors that lead to the side porch and from the window above on the stairway. In the corner, a small area next to the front window is capped by a gentle arch, creating a welcoming nook. The stairway is simple, sturdy and functional, accented by cutout designs on the balustrade.
nothing which you do not know to be useful or which you do not believe to be beautiful.”
To the left of the hall, is the living room with
