Good throw: disc golf in Rochester Disc golf is much like regular golf — or as disc-golf players sometimes refer to it as, “ball golf.” Players throw a flying disc (you probably call it a Frisbee) from a tee area at a target, the most common being a Pole Hole. The two- to three-foot metal pole is surrounded by a basket and metal chains to cushion a disc’s landing. The goal is to get your disc into the basket in the least amount of throws, called “strokes.” The Rochester area is home to seven disc-golf courses, all of them free and open year-round,
maintained by the Greater Rochester Disc Golf Club. The club estimates that there are anywhere between 300 and 500 recreational disc-golf players in Rochester, and this coming week that number will double when the Professional Disc Golf Association Amateur World Championships come to town July 24-30. The competition will draw players from around the world, and Rochester-area players say they’re ready to show off the growing popularity and strength of the disc-golf scene in the Flower City.

Article was poorly timed
I very much enjoyed your article on the Rochester Police Department (“Baby Blues,” June 29). It was an informative, sensitive piece. But the Emily Good case deserved more than a parenthetical mention. Really, there should have been a full article devoted to her story, by itself — especially when the big story (and the under-reported story) is not the arrest, but the following: In the wake of the arrest, someone smashed open the door of Good’s house and stole the iPod with which she filmed the officer. Since nothing else was stolen (apart from some cash), common sense tells us that this was an act of intimidation, not burglary. I don’t pretend to know who would have done such a thing. Anyhow, it’s a crime and it needs to be investigated. I was dismayed to see Mike Mazzeo of the police union brush aside this incident and even going so far as to imply that Good herself was responsible for the missing iPod. I hope Mazzeo is alone in his opinion, because that is an irresponsible attitude for people whose job it is to enforce the law. At the same time that local networks are reporting about a vague possibility of alleged threats against the police department, actual violence is being done to Good’s property. I was shocked to find out that Rochester was the type of place where that kind of thing happens and as a citizen, I want to know more. Publishing photographs of young handsome officers smiling and laughing at a time like this is unbalanced (and downright creepy). Yes, we all feel for officers who are just trying to do the right thing and who face terrible danger every day, but the timing of that choice made it look like cozying up to one side of the debate. There is something dangerous City

going on here, and we need to be getting to the bottom of it. Meanwhile, a vicious PR campaign is at work trying to undermine the credibility of Good, a completely innocent person. Police are public servants. But too often, they don’t act like it. That’s not their fault. That’s ours. It’s our responsibility to be monitoring them and keeping them in line. This innocent young woman was simply doing her duty. The police are not the authorities. We are. That’s what democracy means. IAN DOWNEY, ROCHESTER
From our website
On City Council member Adam McFadden’s push to change the entrance exam to boost the hiring of more minority firefighters: This is the most ridiculous,
un-American, and racist policy I have heard. Possibly we should change all exams to accommodate other races and nationalities. We are declining as a country because we have lowered our standards and in fact have no standards. Having policies like the one suggested only breeds more prejudice. Whatever happened to “equal opportunity employer”? By the way, let’s get more whites, Asians, Italians, etc. in the NBA and Major League Baseball so that it reflects our “diversity.” STEPHEN BENEDETTO
How on God’s blue earth do hiring practices for a job like firefighting appear to be ethnically biased? Is the big man saying minorities can’t hold a ladder, wear a helmet, or rescue a child? Be brave? We’re losing it, people. Society is going down the toilet due to the inability of our “leaders” to think clearly. MARK FIVEN
Some in Rochester are unwilling to accept change. This type of discrimination in business and labor has had a large white societal approval for many years. JESSE BOWEN
Race is in fact a very important element in this discussion (as is gender) — in the sense that the RFD, other public and private employment institutions have historically, systematically, discriminated against people of color and women in a very BIG WAY (for centuries in many
cases). This reality goes a long way in helping to explain why such institutions lack (to say the least) racial and gender so-called “diversity.” This is the historic pattern and reality, which must be interrupted and addressed, in order to move toward any semblance of real (as opposed to theoretical) justice and equality.

On possible legal challenges to hydrofracking: America is both
the land of the free and the stupid by not recognizing our greatest source of energy is 100% clean and 100% free: conservation. But the prospect of “slightly cleaner than coal” natural gas and the prospect of land owners becoming rich — at a high price to the community — conservation seems to be off the table. That conservation is rarely talked about seriously is the counterpoint to the excessive greed many Americans are known for — from corporations all the way down to citizens who just happen to own some land. ICECUCUMBER73
Hydrofracking, horizontal drilling, and chemical infusion into shale deposits, has never been safer as I have personally witnessed in Troy and Dumore, PA. I have seen firsthand how much care the investors have taken to insure safety to residents as well as paying up to $2 per foot for access to the land and then mineral reimbursement to the landowner for the life of the natural gas well. 50,000 jobs have been created in PA. I have to drive four hours one way for work when NYS should have approved frackin’ about one year ago. NYS: the land of delay, obstruct, and screw around while people are losing their homes, jobs, and moving to other states. I am all about the environment and safety, but our own DEC and Albany have missed the issue again...jobs. It will lower our dependence upon petroleum. Get with the program and allow limited natural gas exploration and limited hydrofracking in NYS so we can get back to work and get out of the worst recession since 1938. Please.... CRAIG MOFFITT

urban journal | by mary anna towler
Running the city Rochester has a new deputy mayor, Leonard Redon, and while I don’t know him, he looks like a good choice. He held important management positions at Kodak and was most recently a Paychex vice president, managing 2500 people. Not everybody likes this pick. Some critics are upset that Redon isn’t a Democrat. (He’s registered “blank.”) And one of our readers complains that there are too many “retired corporate executives” at City Hall. (The top three officials, in fact: the mayor, the deputy mayor, and the commissioner of neighborhood and business development.) The discussion brings up some interesting questions. Who should run City Hall? Politicians? People with business experience? Does it matter? To me, management experience, in business or otherwise, is crucial, particularly right now. As I’ve said before, Richards’ background and his tough, no-nonsense approach seem exactly what the city needs, given its extreme challenges of rising employee costs, population loss, vacant houses, slow downtown revitalization. When he announced his deputymayor selection, Mayor Tom Richards emphasized the importance of improving government operations — of “execution.” Redon, he said, will be City Hall’s chief operating officer. As for political affiliation: Certainly there is a difference in the major parties’ philosophy. Republicans might be more likely than Democrats to push for low taxes and service reduction. But frankly, Richards — now a registered Democrat — seems to me much more a Democrat than a Republican in terms of philosophy and sensitivity. And Redon’s job has nothing to do with politics. Chris Lindley, who served as deputy mayor for five years under the late Tom Ryan, says the job is specifically to do what the mayor asks. “The deputy mayor has no independent political identity at all,” says Lindley, “or any power. All power is derived from the mayor. He is representative, uniquely, of the mayor, not of the public.” Significantly, the mayor defines the job. When Rochester adopted the elected-mayor form of government in 1986, “the original concept was that the deputy would be the administrative head of government,” says Lindley. But Ryan wanted to do that himself. Lindley did the ceremonial stuff, the ribbon cutting. Richards apparently plans to adhere to the original concept. And in an interview
In an interview earlier this month, Mayor Tom Richards said he doesn’t view the deputy mayor as ‘a political successor.’ with City’s Tim Macaluso shortly before the Redon announcement, Richards said he envisioned the deputy mayor’s job as “largely someone who will perform as sort of a C-O-O for the city, someone who has the experience and the ability to function in a principal management role in the city.” And, he said: “I think it is particularly critical right now because we are going through a time when we have constrained resources while the demand for services remains high. And the way in which we execute and manage ourselves is going to be critical.” During the election campaign, rumors persisted that Richards would name City Council President Lovely Warren as his deputy mayor, lining her up to succeed him. Richards denied that he had promised Warren the job. And in his interview with Macaluso earlier this month, he said he doesn’t view the deputy mayor as “a political successor.” “In fact,” he said, “it’s probably better that the person who fills that role is outside that process.” Political aspiration, he said, “adds an element to what I’m trying to get done here that probably doesn’t help.” “I want this person to have the focus and expertise to do more than help us get by,” he said. “If it was just getting by, we’ve been getting by. But if we’re going to change and improve ourselves, that’s different.” I share the concern that some have raised — that a business-heavy city administration might put the concerns of business ahead of those of residents. But political interests bring their own problems — giving key positions to party hacks among them. In the end, the rest of us have to be active watchdogs, regardless of who’s in power. What counts is quality. I may be naïve, but I think we’ve got it.

[ news from the week past ]
Redon is deputy mayor
Rochester Mayor Tom Richards appointed Leonard Redon as his deputy. In selecting Redon, Richards said he was looking for a chief operating officer for the city. Concern about reduced financial support from the state will require a greater emphasis on long-range financial planning instead of reacting to budget gaps, Richards said. Redon, 59, was a senior administrator with Kodak and, more recently, Paychex.
Primaries shaping up
Former Democratic City Council member John Lightfoot has filed to run for County Legislature. If his petitions withstand scrutiny, he’ll be waging a primary challenge to endorsed Democrat Anthony Reed. There are several primaries in races across the county. Also in the Lej, Michael Patterson has filed to run against incumbent Saul Maneiro for the 29th District seat. In Irondequoit, Robert Ament is challenging incumbent Town Supervisor Mary Joyce D’Aurizio, a Republican who’s been cross-endorsed by Democrats. In the Chili supervisor race, Republican incumbent David Dunning and
George J. Bartnett have filed petitions for the Conservative Party line.

DEC cuts may affect gas well monitoring
Lej tables Block F sale
The County Legislature tabled a proposal to sell the Block F site to the University of Rochester. The proposal will be held until the August meeting so that the Legislature can hold a public hearing on the sale. The properties, 403 East Main Street and 420 East Main Street, would be sold for a total of $683,000.
Jamie Romeo: Counties with small governments “may be more affected” by the DEC staff reductions. And some are potential gas-well sites. PHOTO BY MATT DETURCK
As the state moves closer to permitting high-volume hydraulic fracturing, the Department of Environmental Conservation has been hit with another round of staff cuts. State officials say that the loss of more than 40 DEC staff members won’t hinder the department’s ability to monitor gas wells. Agency Commissioner Joe Martens has said that the department won’t approve new well permits beyond what the staff can handle. The state’s spin, however, may not match reality. While the division responsible for issuing and enforcing gas well permits had no layoffs, the divisions that monitor air and water quality did. “We feel that the other divisions are a key part of their enforcement capability,” says Sarah Eckel, legislative and policy director for Citizens Campaign for the Environment. For example, the Division of Water regulates storm water runoff from drilling sites, and it also monitors and
regulates wastewater treatment plants. The air quality division monitors emissions from wells and equipment. “Some of the areas that don’t have larger county governments may be more affected,” says Jamie Romeo, who coordinates a local coastal cleanup event and follows regional water issues. These are the rural areas that are most likely to see new wells, and their governments tend to do less monitoring of their own. Drilling site runoff could be more of a concern in those areas, says Romeo. The layoffs included technicians and scientists, says Wes Gillingham, program director for Catskill Mountainkeeper. DEC Region 4, which includes part of the Catskills, lost at least one staffer who handled spill response and bulk storage inspection, Gillingham says. Chemicals and used fracking fluid are often stored on-site in tanks. “This makes no sense right now,” Gillingham says.

City schools rehiring some teachers
Dance Fest wraps year two
Rochester Teachers Association President Adam Urbanski says that many of the 405 city school teachers who received layoff notices last month will be rehired. But with roughly five weeks until school starts, the exact number of rehires is still unclear. Special-education teachers made up the largest number — 113 — of teachers cut and they are the most likely to be recalled, Urbanski says, because the demand for special education instructors is so high. Forty-one elementary teachers received layoff notices, and between 20 and 26 teachers were cut in English, social studies, speech and hearing, music, physical education, and counseling districtwide. Contract negotiations with the RTA saved about $5 million, and that made it possible to recall 44 teachers almost immediately after the layoff notices went out, says Interim Superintendent Bolgen Vargas. And a combination of retirements, maternity leaves, and relocations should result in the rehire of about 50 to 75 teachers, he says. But the exact number of teachers who can be rehired is a work in progress, Vargas says. “Now I have to look at the entire district and look at the fundamental needs and priorities of each school,” he says.
Some schools are still figuring out their enrollment, Vargas says, which will help determine how many teachers are needed. But not everyone is happy with the process: Bolgen Vargas. FILE PHOTO the number of teachers cut, how they were selected, and how many will be rehired. School board member Van White says the district should have held out for more concessions from the RTA, and that could have reduced teacher layoffs. White is also critical of the way seniority influences which teachers the district can rehire. The teachers that were last in are among the first to be cut. The teachers with the most seniority are the first to be rehired, and they’re rehired according to the needs in each certification area. That means newer teachers and teachers of color are less likely to be rehired, White says. “Any effort to recruit teachers of color is going by the wayside, White says.

Arts Center Director Susan Lusignan said that roughly 5000 people attended at least one of the events, and that big draws included headliners Garth Fagan Dance and the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company. | Lusignan says that an official decision to have a third year has not been made, but she is optimistic. “A number of things really worked,” she says, including the variety of dance genres presented, and the balance of local-regional companies with the national headliners. | Should the festival return, Lusignan says that one thing Nazareth would look at is the timing, citing possible conflicts with the Rochester Jewish Film Festival and other events. She also would like to enhance the programming for younger children. | A third outing would also likely be the first to feature the fruits of the new partnership between the Arts Center and the Bessies (a.k.a. the New York Dance and Performance Awards). Earlier this year, Nazareth announced that it had created a juried award that would allow a selected NYC-area dance company that has never toured the opportunity to perform on the Nazareth stage.

HEALTH CARE | BY TIM LOUIS MACALUSO
Medicare and Medicaid under the knife Once considered politically untouchable, Medicare and Medicaid are for the first time in recent history targeted for serious spending cuts. Republican Representative Paul Ryan introduced a plan in April that would change Medicare, helping shove both Medicare and Medicaid into the middle of a national debate about deficit reduction. Even President Obama has put the programs on the table in deficit-reduction talks. But support for cuts to the programs varies widely. While proposals for even modest changes frighten many people, the significance of those cuts may be lost on people who aren’t eligible for benefits and know little about the programs. “People who are working age don’t think about Medicare, because they think ‘that’s for the elderly,’” says attorney René Reixach of Woods Oviatt Gilman. “But it’s also for people who become disabled in their 40’s and 50’s.” Reixach, who specializes in legal matters concerning the elderly and health care, says there’s a lot of misinformation about the programs. And that misinformation may make the talks about cuts to the programs even more confusing, he says. In addition, few working-age people remember what life was like before Medicare and Medicaid: “If grandma got sick, and you didn’t have the money, the hospital put a lien on your house,” says Reixach. Former President Lyndon Johnson signed
the amendments to the Social Security law in 1965 that created Medicare and Medicaid. The programs were designed as social safety nets, largely to help prevent sickness and old age from thrusting Americans into poverty. Though they both help to cover health-care costs, the programs are different. Medicare is a federal program that covers about 80 percent of health-care costs today for people age 65 and over. Medicare also covers care for the disabled, and in some cases, it covers nursing and rehabilitation services. The program is available to everyone, regardless of income. Medicaid is a joint federal-state program with strict eligibility requirements that provides health-care coverage to the poor and disabled. It covers long-term and custodial care, such as nursing home care. Medicare and Medicaid are both paid for by the taxpayer. But Medicaid is administered by the federal and state governments and City

paid for by a combination of federal and state taxes. This is partly why Medicaid programs vary widely between states. New York’s Medicaid program is much more comprehensive compared to other states — and is quite costly. A large part of New York’s Medicaid budget is directed to caring for people who are disabled and are under 65, Reixach says. “If you’re in a bad auto accident and you get a head injury or you have a serious stroke and you’re in your 40’s or 50’s, it’s a program that will provide services that certainly no one’s health insurance will cover,” he says. “The kinds of services you’ll need are not necessarily health care, but they are services that are needed for life skills. And the only way you can get them, to its credit, is through New York’s Medicaid program.” Reixach cites care for developmentally disabled adults and children as another example of New York’s exemplary Medicaid program. New York was among the first states to transition the developmentally disabled out of state institutions and into group homes. “It’s a much better living environment for individuals with developmental disabilities, but it has to get paid for somehow,” Reixach says. “And it’s paid for pretty much exclusively by Medicaid. Those are the kinds of services that are at risk, if these programs are cut.” There are some tensions surrounding Medicaid because the benefits aren’t necessarily limited to people who are poor. An individual with a disability or the brain injury, for instance, may not have an income. But the person’s family may. “It’s a program built on a welfare model, and yet it provides a whole variety of services to families who are middle class,”

Reixach says. “That’s where you get some of the political pushback. It’s supposed to provide support for poor people, but here it provides all kinds of services for a great many people who aren’t. But how many families are going to be able to afford placing a child in a group home that costs $60,000 a year? I can tell you, not many.” Some proposed cuts to Medicare and
Medicaid can seem reasonable, and fairly benign. But Medicare doesn’t cover everything, and most recipients already buy a supplemental insurance plan, which can cost anywhere from $150 to $300 a month. And opponents to the cuts under discussion argue that they do not have to be deep before they become painful for many recipients with limited incomes. For instance, Republican Representative Eric Cantor has recommended $353 billion in cuts to Medicare and Medicaid over 10 years. The costs in some of Cantor’s proposals, such as higher co-payments for home health care and blood tests can add up quickly for people living on fixed incomes. Patients who have medical problems with shorter treatment periods, such as heart surgery, are going to struggle with those extra costs. But patients with longer-term needs from diseases such as Parkinson’s or Alzheimer’s may find the costs unmanageable. “It’s almost a matter of getting the right disease,” Reixach says. Reixach’s biggest concern is that the country seems to be slipping back to the pre-Medicare and Medicaid days. Not everyone will have the same access to quality care, he says, and we will have a multi-tiered system instead.
Medicare, for instance, is widely recognized as being an efficiently administered program, considering all that it does, he says. But its costs continue to rise. And some critics argue that the less recipients share the cost of the programs, the more likely they are to overuse them. We don’t want seniors running to the doctor for a hangnail, Reixach says, but it creates a worse and more costly problem if they don’t receive the care they need. And finding the right price point is difficult because it isn’t the same for everyone. There also have been numerous reports of fraud, including doctors charging for fictitious patient visits and ordering unnecessary and expensive tests. At the heart of the problem, however, is the increasing cost of health care, Reixach says. New technology and medical advances tend to hold out the promise of reducing costs, but they frequently don’t deliver. He cites MRI’s and CAT scans as common examples. “They didn’t exist years ago,” he says. “The technology is great, but overall it increases costs.” The best option for containing health care’s rising costs may be through increased emphasis on preventive medicine, Reixach says. He cites growing concerns about the increase in childhood obesity and diabetes. Prevention would be far less expensive than treating a generation of people who would be living longer with the diseases. “Preventive care reduces costs, but only in the long term, which is why it is such an easy target for budget cutters to focus on the immediate fiscal year,” Reixach says.

Good throw disc golf in Rochester [ FEATURE ] By Kathy Laluk
Poised atop a small grassy knoll, Dan Hastings lines up his shot. He gets a feel for it once, twice, three times, all the while grasping a thin, neon-yellow piece of plastic by the very edges of his fingertips. The fourth time, he lets the disc fly — no, soar — clear across the park. “Get over — over!” he urges the disc around a tall oak tree in the way. Almost like it can hear him, the disc curves at the last second, narrowly avoiding a branch and floating gently to the ground. “Wow!” “Nice shot!” “Yeah, that’s a beauty!” The three other players are impressed, but by the end of the night, Hastings isn’t satisfied with his score of two under par. In a matter of days, 19-year-old Hastings will be up against more than 400 of the best amateur disc-golf players from around the world, and he’s got to bring his A-game if he wants to beat them. “Sure, I want to win,” he says. “But I’ve got a lot of practicing to do still.” That’s why Hastings is taking advantage of every league night offered by the Greater Rochester Disc Golf Club, and playing all seven courses in the Greater Rochester area. Hastings is just one of dozens of local players preparing City
JULY 20-26, 2011
for the Professional Disc Golf Association Amateur World Championships, which will take place in Rochester July 24-30. Players say they’re ready to show off the growing popularity and strength of the disc-golf scene in Rochester. Disc golf is much like regular golf — or as
disc-golf players sometimes refer to it as, “ball golf.” Players throw from a tee area at a target, the most common being a Pole Hole. The two- to three-foot metal pole is surrounded by a basket and metal chains to cushion a disc’s landing. The goal is to get your disc into the basket in the least amount of throws, called “strokes.” Tony Inzana, a professional disc-golf player and current vice-president of the Greater Rochester Disc Golf Club, says disc golf isn’t just about throwing a Frisbee around. “It’s throwing a Frisbee with the same mindset as if you were trying to hit a golf ball,” he says. Like golf, players carry different discs for different shots. “Putters” are heavier discs that don’t go as far, but are more accurate. The thinnest, most aerodynamic discs are reserved for driving, and tend to go farther. And mid-range discs, as you might guess, are somewhere in between. Players carry around anywhere from 10 to 20 discs during a game.
That may seem extreme to the disc-golf neophyte, but, “It’s much lighter than a bag of golf clubs,” Inzana says. Disc-golf players are like mailman: not rain, nor sleet, nor hail can stop them from playing. Of course, sunny weather with little wind is ideal, but for the die-hard players, the Greater Rochester Disc Golf Club offers a Saturday morning league that runs year-round. “Especially in the wintertime, it’s more about getting outside for three hours and just exercising, and there’s some camaraderie,” Inzana says. Unlike regular golf, you won’t find man-made sand traps or water hazards on disc-golf courses. But players say the natural landscape of a course can be hazard enough. “Basil has really tight woods,” Hastings says of the Basil A. Marella course located in Greece. “If you don’t throw a good shot, you’re gonna know it when you hear it whack a tree.” Most courses designate roads and ponds as out of bounds, but there are no hard and fast rules. There are ways to rack up penalty strokes in disc golf, however. If your disc flies out of bounds, or “OB,” you add a stroke to your score for that hole. Some courses are also designed with “mandatories,” or “mandos.” These
are obstacles that a disc must pass in a certain way. So if a tree is marked “right mandatory,” the player must throw their disc past the tree’s right side or get a penalty stroke. Disc golf seemingly sprouted up across the
country out of nowhere in the late 20th century. And while the game has its roots in California, some of the best seedlings grew here in Rochester. The emergence of disc golf is closely linked to the somewhat mysterious history of the flying disc, especially after it was introduced to mainstream culture as WhamO, Inc.’s trademarked Frisbee. Some players say the sport may have evolved as early as the 1900’s, but the current game we know as disc golf starting growing in the 1960’s. The theories about who invented the sport are as numerous and diverse as the people who play disc golf today. “They were kind of independent,” says Gene Beaumont, a local player and treasurer for the GRDGC. “There was a whole thing going on in California and they were doing their thing. Rochester is kind of where the competitive side of the sport started.” “We weren’t the ones who invented or discovered disc golf, but we were on the forefront of the sport,” says Tony Inzana,

a professional disc golf player and current vice president for the Greater Rochester Disc Golf Club. That club is also one of the oldest established clubs for disc-golf players — second only to many of those in California. The Greater Rochester Disc Golf Club was formed in 1971 by Frisbee enthusiasts, who began organizing weekly, semi-informal matches around the area. Today, there are more than 3000 official disc-golf courses in the United States, and at least that many more worldwide. The Professional Disc Golf Association estimates that about 87 percent of those courses are free. Disc golf isn’t just limited to the college campuses and parks. There are recognized courses, players, and clubs in more than 40 other countries, according to the PDGA. It also claims that the sport has grown at an annual rate of about 12 percent to 15 percent for more than the past decade. Disc golf is an easy sport to pick up, says
Inzana, and once you do, it’s addictive. Of the seven free courses in the Greater Rochester area, he says that Ellison Park’s is the best for beginners. “This is a great course, because you can just throw down the hills, and people love to watch the discs fly,” he says. Each course has its own tricks, with Parma and Basil offering up the most complicated games. The learning curve for disc golf is fast — really fast. “I’ve seen people start as beginners on hole one, and by about halfway, two-thirds of the way through, they’ve already started to learn,” Inzana says. “It doesn’t take long to learn how to get that Frisbee to fly straight.” “It takes a long time to jump your skill level with a lot of practice, but people play one round of 18 holes and they have a pretty good idea of the sport,” he says. “It takes a lot longer to get comfortable hitting a golf ball.”
Inzana says that makes the sport even more enticing as a family activity. Not to mention that every single disc-golf course in Rochester is free of charge. If you do want to learn to play, Inzana says hitting the course solo is just fine. But if you’re looking for some insight from the pros, the GRDGC offers disc-golf clinics throughout the year and hosts a doubles’ league every Tuesday throughout the summer. That league pairs a “pro” team with an “amateur” team so the newer players can learn from the best. “It’s a good way to get involved with the club, and also to learn from somebody who’s more experienced,” Hastings says. League nights will cost you about $8 to $10. Part of that money goes toward the club and local course maintenance — the lawns and trees are maintained by the parks department, but the tees and pole holes are the responsibility of the GRDGC — but the bulk goes to the payout purse. For an extra buck you can also get a mulligan shot, essentially a do-over on a hole where maybe you didn’t do so well. Still, the cost is low enough to bring players out in droves. Inzana estimates
that there are anywhere between 300 and 500 recreational players in the immediate Rochester area, and on a recent league night there were about 70 players on the course. When I asked what the best part of the sport was, almost every single person said without hesitation: “It’s free!” That point also brings out some other flying-disc fans: ultimate Frisbee players. “They’ll use their ultimate discs. You know, they don’t fly the same way, but they have remarkable control over those,” Inzana says. “[The players] will run the course to keep their endurance up. …There’s definitely a crossover of skill sets there.” Gene Beaumont, a longtime player and marketing director for the PDGA AM Worlds, says the sport is catching on so fast that parks are having a hard time building courses to keep up with demand. New courses “are springing up everywhere,” he says. In addition to the seven in the Greater Rochester area, there is a course in Sweden and another along Lake Ontario near Albion. SUNY Geneseo also has plans to add a disc-golf course to its campus over the next few years — something Monroe Community College already did in 2007.
Local disc-golf courses The Greater Rochester area boasts seven full disc-golf courses, and more are on the way. The best part: they’re free and open year-round for anyone who wants to try their hand at this high-flying sport.

The PDGA Amateur World Championships
kick off in Rochester on Sunday, with somewhere between 400 and 500 competitors from at least eight different countries. “Rochester’s actually one of the birth places of the sport, so we have a lot of history,” Inzana says. This is the third time Rochester will play home to a World Disc Golf Championship tournament — we previously hosted the professional tournament in 1984 and 1999 — but the first time it will be for amateur players, like Dan Hastings. Inzana says that he doesn’t expect Hastings to be an “am” for long, though. “This kid is just progressing so fast. He’ll be a pro in no time,” he says. Hastings is currently ranked fourth in the GRDGC’s Tuesday league. He is confident, but says he’s still learning. On the lengthy ninth hole at the Chili Disc Golf Course at Widener Park during a Tuesday doubles-league game, Hastings boasted about his knowledge of the setup, and of professional players. “I can hit that basket in three,” he says to his partner for the night, Gene Beaumont. It’s more than 900 feet to the target from the tee. “You think? Only two pros pulled off that shot last time,” Beaumont says, with a teasing hint of sarcasm. “At the World Ams, I’ll get it in three for you, Gene-o!” Hastings jokes back. Hastings has been playing for just about five years. He started when he was 14, after stumbling across the course at Ellison Park while walking his dog. He threw a regular Frisbee around and eventually his dad roped him into it. “I thought it was kind of lame at first,” Hastings says. “Once I started buying golf discs and figured out how to throw, I really went at it from there.” Hastings got involved with the club shortly thereafter and paired up continues on page 10 rochestercitynewspaper.com

Good throw: disc golf in Rochester continues from page 9
with one of the local pros. “After a year of playing, people started giving me pointers,” he says. Before he was old enough to drive a car, Hastings was driving discs at his first amateur world tournament with a paying sponsor in tow, an East Rochester pool business. Don’t let the word “amateur” fool you — Hastings knows what he’s doing. This will be his fifth amateur world tournament, but his first outside of the juniors division. Players’ ages run the gamut in this game. This year’s tournament features a 10-andunder category, as well as a 70-plus group. Inzana says most of the groups will play each of the seven courses in the area at least once, some more than once for scheduling reasons. On the course, Hastings is quiet and focused as he prepares each shot. His eyes squint at the far-off basket, noting each tree and obstacle in his path to an ace. His focus shifts the instant the disc leaves his fingertips. His eyes are zoned in on the small piece of plastic, soaring through the air. Behind that intense gaze, he’s already calculating his next throw. His demeanor shifts on league nights if he gets a lousy shot. “Perfect! Right into the tree,” he says sarcastically. His dad, Jim Hastings, although proud, isn’t above heckling his son. “What, no aces, yet?” he shouts from the 11th hole. “I was waiting for you to watch,” his son fires back. Disc golf has been a way for the Hastings to spend quality father-son time. It also helps Jim stay in shape. “It’s perfect,” Jim says. “I get to hang out with Dan, and I get the exercise in without feeling like his old man. He still kicks my butt, though.” Inzana is already prepping his son to kick his butt one day, too. Inzana’s son is only 9, but he’s already gearing up for this week’s tournament. “He’s been throwing Frisbees since he was old enough to stand,” Inzana says. His son’s muscles are developing and his attention span is getting better. (“He played two whole rounds last week!” Inzana says with a sense of relief and pride.) Nine-year-old Michael will compete against at least a halfdozen other kids in the tournament. “It just goes to show it can really be a family-unity kind of sport, where everyone can play” Inzana says. “We do have a lot of history here, but most of what’s happening now is new blood.” And there are plenty of old pros who are more than happy to teach the next generation. Roughly 30 percent of disc-golf players are more than 40 years old, according to the Professional Disc Golf Association. Inzana says the sport is heavily dominated by guys (about 80 percent to 90 percent of American players are men, according to the PDGA), but that 10 City JULY 20-26, 2011

doesn’t stop women from playing. Melinda Apton was the only women on the course when I stopped by one of GRDGC’s doubles’ nights. She is modest almost to a fault and insists she’s just there to have fun, but this amateur player gave some of the boys a serious run for their money. A former state disc-golf champion, Apton’s been playing the sport on and off for about six years, mostly with her father. He also happens to be her biggest fan; he beams as he describes his daughter’s win from a few years ago. Apton brushes it off and heads to the first tee to practice before the league night begins. Ultimately she proved she can keep up with the boys just fine, placing third overall for the amateur division.

Urban Action This week’s calls to action include the following events and activities. (All are free and open to the public, unless otherwise noted.)
With the amateur world tournament rapidly
approaching, Hastings has upped his practice time to at least two hours a day, every day. Still, Hastings isn’t about to psych himself out for this tournament. “My first tournament I was nervous, but now it’s just another tournament,” he says. Hastings has played against some of the biggest names in the sport all across the country, but this time is different. This time, he knows the courses and gets to be the big dog on his home turf. “This time they’re coming to me. Right now it’s a lot more of a confidence feeling than a nervous feeling,” he says. Inzana says hosting the tournament and having big players come to Rochester will boost morale for local players and highlight the strong presence disc golf has in our area. “It’s really going to help the disc-golf scene here in our area, and that’s fantastic,” he says. “With this little extra boost — phew! No doubt in my mind the popularity of disc golf is just going to soar.” For more information on the 2011 PDGA Amateur Disc Golf World Championships visit 2011amworlds.com.

Let’s do Lunch [ CHOW HOUND ] BY SUSIE HUME
There are a few spots in Rochester that some may believe are cursed for all restaurateurs who dare enter. Consider 89 State Street, which has seen four restaurants in just three years — from Tijuana Tokyo’s to Café 89 to CJ’s Southern Soul (which has relocated to 701 Lake Ave.) — and is now home to Lunch, which opened last week. “I’m not nervous,” says owner Magan Pilato. “One thing we’ve done is start from scratch by gutting it all the way down to the studs so we could make it a new place, whereas others just tried to make the space work as it was. We’re excited and think the location is perfect for what we offer.” What Lunch offers is seemingly a perfect fit for its location amidst the downtown business district: an ostensibly simple, although actually quite unique, menu of sandwiches, soups, and salads at reasonable lunch prices. While choices like a turkey, roast beef, or ham might sound expected, Pilato has upped the offerings by adding homemade spreads, a distinctive bread selection, and nontraditional toppings. Some of the signature sandwiches include “The Goat,” which includes goat cheese, avocado, celery, and walnut pesto served on multigrain bread, or “The Dreamy Veggie,” with chickpeas, roasted red peppers, black olives, tomato, romaine lettuce, and lemon mayonnaise on sourdough. In addition to sandwiches, Lunch serves up six types of panini (all made with bread from Baker Street Bakery) including “The Seaside,” a fresh take on a caprese salad
featuring sliced avocado, fresh mozzarella, tomato, and basil mayonnaise, and “The Turkey Mango,” turkey breast with fresh mozzarella, cilantro, and mango salsa. Four salads (notably, the “Napa,” made with baby spinach, fresh apples, walnuts, crumbly blue cheese, and raspberry vinaigrette) also grace the menu, along with a rotating selection of soups. The menu is also simply priced: salads and sandwiches cost $6.95, paninis cost $7.49, and soups cost $3.25. Lunch also offers outdoor seating for up to 18 people, delivery within walking distance, and a catering menu. In the future, Pilato plans on expanding hours to include breakfast offerings. Lunch is located at 89 State St. It is open Monday-Friday 11 a.m.-3 p.m. For more information call 325-5453 or visit lunchrochester.com.
Wings, cars, and things
Rochester’s first location of the national chain Quaker Steak & Lube has opened. Originally started in 1974 in Pennsylvania as a “cook your own steak” establishment, and named for its display of vintage muscle cars, the chain is now better known for its wings, which come in more than 20 flavors at varying degrees of hotness. Some flavors include the triple atomic, Cajun, tequilalime barbeque, Asian sesame, parmesan pepper, and honey mustard. The menu also features appetizers (including Bavarian soft pretzels, chipotle quesadillas, and fried pickles), salads, flatbread pizzas, steaks, burgers (with toppings like sautéed mushrooms, bleu cheese, bacon, and
When Arturo Martinez reopened his popular Mexican eatery, Paola’s Burrito Place and Mexican Grill, last November in a new location, he vowed that he would not only bring back the classic dishes that his fans craved, but that he would also soon be adding breakfast items and Mexican baked goods, fulfilling his dream of owning a Mexican bakery. That dream has been fulfilled, as the restaurant now offers an extensive breakfast menu (available on Saturday and Sundays 8-11 a.m.) and a dessert menu with several Mexican confections. The daunting breakfast menu includes a wide selection of breakfast burritos, omelets, and traditional Mexican breakfast plates. The giant breakfast burritos are offered in five varieties — steak, chicken, chorizo, pork, and veggie — and are stuffed with eggs, pico de gallo, ranchera sauce, cheese and cilantro. Omelets are all made with three eggs and come in the same five varieties; all are served with a side of refried beans. But the truly notable options are in the Mexican Breakfast Plates section of the menu where diners will find dishes like huevos rancheros (three fried eggs topped with ranchera sauce and cheese), migas (scrambled eggs topped with tortilla strips, diced onions, tomatoes, cilantro, ranchera sauce, and cheese), and egg flautas (eggs served with chicken-fried taquitos, topped with guacamole and sour cream). For dessert, Martinez is offering up flan (Mexican custard served with caramel and whipped cream), tres leches cake (a traditional Mexican cake made with evaporated, condensed and regular milk), sopapillas (flaky pastry puffs powdered with cinnamon and sugar), and borracho cake (a brown cake made with rum). Paola’s Burrito Place and Mexican Grill is located at 1011 Culver Road. Prices range from $5 to $10. It is open MondayFriday 11 a.m.-9 p.m., Saturday 8 a.m.9 p.m., and Sunday 8 a.m.-8 p.m. For more information, call 271-3655 or visit paolasmexicanrestaurant.com.

Has it been that long? [ review ] by frank de blase
Though there are plenty of blues acts here in town — good ones, too — Joe Beard usually opens for the big names when they roll through town. A couple of people asked me why he usually gets the nod. As Beard was playing with his usual casual elegance I explained that it’s out of respect, and that many of these acts specifically request his name on the bill. Beard sounded great Friday night at the Big Rib BBQ & Blues Fest at Highland Park, and was frankly better than headliner Robert Cray. Cray was particularly touchy about pictures. Cher pulled the same don’tcome-near-me-with-a-camera BS a few years ago at Blue Cross Arena, but come on, she looks like the Crypt Keeper if you get too close. Cray’s a handsome dude. I don’t understand. Despite the photophobia, Cray sounded great. His band was beautifully understated and his voice was full of heartbroken soul. He is one of the few guitar players who plays with that trademark Strat boing-twang that I actually like. On Sunday, Day 2 of Bop Fest 5 reintroduced Jenna Weintraub to the

Weintraub has arrived as the ballsto-the-wall belter I just knew was hiding in there, clawing at the walls to get out. She and the band rocked the outdoor stage in the Village Gate courtyard and would’ve brought the house down had she been indoors. Viva la Weintraub! More wall-busting instrumental rock from Rochester’s missing links, The Tombstone Hands, left ears ringing before New York garage-rock forefathers The Fleshtones stormed the stage as if it were Omaha Beach. This is one of the tightest live rock ’n’ roll acts in the world. It was a non-stop frenzy, a tumultuous cavalcade of loud guitar, synchronized high-kicks, wailing organ, and the beat of pure American music. The segues were so tight at times that it was almost like a Fleshtones medley. This band has consistently put on some of the best shows I’ve ever seen over the 25 years I’ve been going to see them.

After 30 years at it, who is showing up to Crue shows?
Well, you look out there and it’s not only fans that grew up with us, but there are 12-yearold and 13-year-old kids with “Shout at the Devil” T-shirts on. It’s really a diverse crowd; an attorney standing next to a biker and little kids on their dad’s shoulders for their first concert experience. And there are just as many girls as there are guys — maybe even more girls than guys. Either way we’re filling the places up like we always have. What do you suppose is Motley Crue’s lasting appeal?

Last of the rock stars Motley Crue w/Poison, The New York Dolls Friday, July 22 Darien Lake Performing Arts Center, 9993 Alleghany Road, Darien Center 7 p.m. | $47.35-$111.80 | livenation.com motley.com [ INTERVIEW ] By Frank De Blase
Born in the midst of the hair metal hysteria of the 1980’s, Motley Crue never really quite fit in. The glam was there, the on- and offstage hi-jinx, excess, and insanity was certainly there, but this band’s penchant for accelerated hard rock proved to be its salvation when the genre fizzled out. In the band’s 30-year history, it has amassed album sales in excess of 80 million, seven platinum (and multiplatinum) albums, 22 Top 40 mainstream rock hits, and six Top 20 pop singles. The only thing that could stop Motley Crue was Motley Crue. Drug overdoses, DWIs, stolen sex tapes, personal tragedies, and infighting threatened to derail the Motley train. But just as it did in the 80’s, Motley Crue’s music has kept the band going in spite of the drama. This tour, the band — singer Vince Neil, guitarist Mick Mars, bassist Nikki Sixx, and drummer Tommy Lee — went to the fans via its website and asked them to pick the songs they wanted to hear. Fans also wanted a show, and as always the band delivers this time with a 360-degree vertical drum rollercoaster that Lee will ride while playing. Leave it to the Crue; the whole show ought to be a wild ride on the wild side. Singer Vince Neil said as much when he called to chat. An edited transcript of what he said follows. 14 City JULY 20-26, 2011
CITY: Sounds like you guys are going to put on quite a show. Vince Neil: It’s just a great show; lots of visuals,
lots of pyro, dancing girls, the whole thing. Throw in some good music and there you go.
How’d you come up with stuff like the drum rollercoaster?
Just sitting around and coming up with crazy ideas. And with the drum rollercoaster, Tommy [Lee] thought it sounded cool and we thought so, too. Obviously we had to talk to engineers to see if it could be built and that it wouldn’t cost millions of dollars to make. Or kill Tommy.
Exactly. Why did you go to fans for this tour’s set list?
Every time we’d do a concert, everybody was always like, “Why didn’t you play this song? Why didn’t you play that song?” Well how about this? You guys pick the songs. Now nobody can bitch anymore because the fans voted. Any surprises?
There were only a few surprises. Of course there were the songs that were the big hits that are always going to be there. But songs like “Smokin’ in the Boys Room” we hadn’t done in 20 years, or “Too Young To Fall In Love” or “Too Fast For Love.” Any that you didn’t want to do?
No. We just hadn’t done them because we have so many songs, and you just can’t please everybody.
People like to talk about us. Individually we’re a bunch of idiots, and together we’re one big crazy idiot. A big crazy idiot that has survived in spite of itself.
Exactly. And when the four of us get together there’s really magic there, and the fans see that when they come hear us play. It doesn’t feel like we’ve been together 30 years. I still feel like we’re playing the Whiskey A Go-Go. We’re still the same guys. We feed off the audience. They’re going crazy and we’re just having a good time out there. Besides outside projects and artistic endeavors, what’s something Motley Crue hasn’t done yet?
We’ve pretty much done everything. I mean, we’re not going to change styles. Motley Crue is Motley Crue. We’re just going to continue making records and touring. We plan on doing Crue Fest 3 and bringing on a whole new batch of bands. What is your advice to young bands coming up in your wake?
I’d say give ’em a show. Give ’em something to talk about. That’s what we’ve always been about. When people leave a Motley Crue concert they go, “Fuck man, now that was cool.” If you go out there and stand there and play your music… That’s good for some kinds of bands, but it’s not good for rock ’n’ roll. Why does it seem that you guys are the last of the rock stars?
It’s really weird. A lot of bands just kind of don’t care. They don’t care about image, they don’t care about the way they look, they don’t care about putting on a show. This is entertainment, and they walk on stage wearing the same thing they wore getting there. And it loses it. It loses the magic of being a rock star. I think you’re right; we are the last of the rock stars.

JAM | moe.
Since 1990, trailblazing jam band moe. has moved out of the Buffalo basement, onto festival stages, and into coliseums. The group’s success has no doubt been aided by the occasional Phish hiatus, but despite the recent resurgence of the “gods” of improvisational rock, there is still room for the more tangible angels. Rob Derhak (bass, vocals) brings a funkypop edge to most tracks while Al Schnier and Chuck Garvey (guitarists) have only gotten smoother with age. The band has no desire to be categorized, but when pushed hard enough, the members would call themselves a rock ‘n’ roll band with the obvious ability to construct tightly crafted, kaleidoscopic pop as well as drift into airy, and sometimes eerie, brilliantly buoyant instrumental breakdowns. moe. performs Thursday, July 21, as part of Party in the Park at Riverside Festival Site, corner of Court and Exchange. 5-10 p.m. $2. rochesterevents.com. — BY DAVID YOCKEL JR.

DJ/Electronic | DJ Dan
West Coast bred — not quite Bel-Air, but still a prince in his own right — DJ Dan is no stranger to the rave scene that he helped usher in, and still continues to dominate. DJ Dan brings together disco, jazz, funk, rock, and even some freestyle into danceable tunes that some may say creatively rival the originals. After all these years, Dan is still going as strong, not letting go of his grip on his relevance to the DJ scene. His “Bad Romance” and “Paparazzi” remixes set dance floors across the country on fire, and this is a rare treat to see the star where he fits in best, at a small club where you can get your dance on.

CLASSICAL | St. Matthew Passion
Reading the biography of Music Director Adrian G. Horn is akin to reading a bibliography of scores for big and mighty voices. Bring on this year’s production by the Finger Lakes Choral Festival of J.S. Bach’s “St. Matthew Passion.” Composed c. 1727, it sets a portion of the Gospel of Matthew to music, using chorales and arias and orchestra. The festival is in its eighth season, and includes approximately 200 singers for 15 rehearsals. Anyone can join in, and the registration form is already available on line for the 2012 production of the Berlioz “Requiem,” which will include performances in Rochester and San Francisco.

HIP-HOP | Kid Cudi
Chances are Kid Cudi is a name many might recognize, even if why that might be isn’t readily apparent. Striking a broad presence, recognition could pertain to Cudi’s penchant for crossing between genres in his music or his extracurricular activities as an actor. Elements of varied genres are present within his live act, and Cudi is adept at creating atmospheric moods to enhance whichever direction he decides to take his eclectic hip-hop repertoire that particular night. After two popular hiphop albums, Cudi has decided for his third to move toward a rock-centered album. Much like his two previous efforts and his live show, it will certainly prove to be engaging.

ROCK-JAZZ | Steely Dan
For decades, Steely Dan has skated the line between sleazy and sublime, a balance the band has maintained through its sharpness in both humor and unrelenting perfectionism. This is the band’s only show in New York this year, and Dan fans aren’t easily identified by appearance — all walks love these guys — so watch out when Becker and Fagan bust out “Kid Charlemagne,” “Black Cow,” “Babylon Sisters,” and all those other songs you forgot you knew. That’s when the strangers of the crowd nod knowingly toward each other and sing along, while you can’t help but nod in agreement.

beneficium,” and then a short Byrd piece, “O Magnum Mysterium.” The final Byrd piece, resolving itself on a major chord, was declared “a good place to stop,” by Musica Spei member Mary Cowden, and on that note, the group did. Although the group was more-or-less ad hoc, the “Amens” and the “Jesu Christis” were glorious, enhanced by the acoustics of St. Anne’s Church. Lobenstine identified only two things as potential prerequisites to participating in Summer Sings: being able to sight-sing or being a “really good follower” and having “a somewhat lighter and somewhat more flexible voice.” Musica Spei is not the only group in Rochester The Musica Spei Summer Sings allow you to add your voice to sacred Renaissance music.

The first question of what to do next came up over the “Credo” movement of the “Mass for Five Voices Kyrie Eleison” by William Byrd (c.1540-1623). Someone said it was too long that early in the evening. Someone said, “We never do the Credos.” Two hours later, we had sung not only this Credo, but also a second one. Welcome to Summer Sing, a program hosted by Musica Spei, Rochester’s a cappella group specializing in sacred Renaissance music. Started in the summer of 1995, when Steve Marcus and Tom Grande hatched the notion of getting people together to sing Renaissance music, the group went on to perform full seasons of concerts and to record two CDs. Musica Spei is now in its 17th year. The idea of Summer Sing is quite simple. Anyone is welcome to show up at St. Anne’s Church on Mt. Hope Avenue, pull up a chair, and join in the four-, five-, and six-part choral works dating from roughly the 14th through 17th centuries. You can attend one or all six Wednesday evenings. There is no homework or memorization, and there is no public performance. 18 City july 20-26, 2011
“Summer Sings is really an experiment in making as much music as you can on the spur of the moment,” says Eric Lobenstine, a member of Musica Spei. At the first Summer Sing on July 6, there
were five members of Musica Spei, two former members of Musica Spei, and about 15 others. The July 13 edition had 16 participants, four of whom were current members, two of whom were former members, and five of whom were first-timers. “Last summer, we were up to 30 or 35 people at one point,” says Lobenstine. During its regular season, Musica Spei is designed as a group of 16 performers. Every Wednesday, one person is the designated leader. “We pass out music. We have a designated arm waver who tries to keep us together. We’re all sight reading. We’re often buried in our music. And, sometimes, things pull apart,” says Lobenstine. “We sing basically without much discussion, and without much pause until people give up.” Jim Blake acted as leader for the July 13 edition. A former college choir director, Blake had the ability to sight-sing the score in his left hand while conducting with his right. He also had the ability to jump in when the group was not quite together, or just starting to slide off pitch by a half tone or so, including one instance where it appeared the entire group had simply slid itself into another key signature altogether. The music for any given evening is “pretty random,” says Lobenstine. “We bring up an entire file box of music — some of it will be easier, some of it will be harder.” Indeed, selections for the July 13 meeting ranged from the Byrd piece to a piece by Gasparo Alberti (c. 1489-1560), a five-part “Missa: Sacredos et Pontifex” by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (c. 1525-1594), a motet by Antoine Brumel (c. 1460-1512) “Beata Es, Maria, Virgo,” a Jean Mouton selection “Celeste
to offer an open singing program this summer. The Eastman School of Music offers four Tuesday-evening sessions in Kilbourn Hall, led by conductor William Weinert. The Eastman Summer Sing has an accompanist and soloists, and occasionally collaborates with the RIT Summer Orchestra. The music is scored for a larger chorus and is more of the classical genre. Two of the tenors at the July 13 Musica Spei Summer Sing had been at the Eastman School Summer Sing the night before. I, too, had been at Kilbourn Hall on July 12 to hear what would happen as voices randomly came together for the choral sections of Mahler’s Symphony No. 2 (Movement V, Der Grosse Appell — “The Great Call”) and Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9 (Movement IV, “Ode to Joy”). The line to get in to the auditorium stretched through the foyer and out the door by 7:15 p.m., and the last person entered about a half-hour later. High-fives and hugs were exchanged, and some people greeted each other for the first time since last summer’s sing. By my estimate, there were approximately 200 voices, and from the first note this ad-hoc chorus was up and running, punctuated by Weinert’s directions, including that the sopranos stick to their line and not wander into the soloists notes. I had spoken to Weinert earlier that afternoon, and he mentioned how much he enjoys the range of singers who show up, from community-chorus members to ESM students to high-school students part of the Music Horizons camp (through Eastman Community School of Music), to a couple from Buffalo who drive in for the event, to people who have moved away and are back visiting during the summer. Lobenstine considers Rochester “a remarkable town for choral music,” he says. He references the Greater Rochester Choral Consortium, which has approximately 25 member groups, ranging from children’s groups, like the Bach Children’s Choir, to more advanced groups with several hundred members, like the Rochester Oratorio Society. A truly wonderful experience that Lobenstine and Weinert believe may only be offered in a few other cities around the country, these Summer Sings offer an opportunity to immerse yourself in Rochester’s classical music scene in a manner that goes far beyond sitting in the audience.

ART | COWLES FAMILY SHOW
The phrase “the apples don’t fall far from the tree” is undeniably true in the case of a local family chock full of artists. This month, the gallery at the Little Theatre Cafe (240 East Ave.) shines a light on three very talented members of the Cowles family: David and his kids, Clayton and Alison. (Genetic double whammy: the kids’ mom is local printmaker and painter, Laura Wilder). David’s highly recognizable celeb caricatures have appeared in Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone, Vibe, Time, Newsweek, Playboy, and People, among many other periodicals, and he’s produced videos for They Might Be Giants. Clayton is a graduate of the Joe Kubert School of Cartoon & Graphic Art, and now freelances for Marvel Comics, and Alison, whose focus is currently on portraiture, just completed her first year at PrattMWP in Utica. Each artist has contributed a small handful of examples of their work to the show: check out Dave’s iconic Marilyn Monroe, Clayton’s tribute to Hermione Granger and “Ramona” (ninja delivery girl, from “Scott Pilgrim,” pictured), and Alison’s beautiful, old-world-style portrait of her brother. The show remains up through July 22, and cafe hours are Sunday 5-8 p.m. Monday-Thursday 5-10 p.m.; FridaySaturday 5-11 p.m. For more information, call 258-0403 or visit thelittle.org. — BY REBECCA RAFFERTY Jul 31: “Dance Study,” original pastel sketches by Marcella Gillenwater.

RECREATION | BOUNCE-A-THON/PARTY WITH A PURPOSE
This week you have two chances to have fun while helping out a good cause. At Party with a Purpose you can scope out Rochester’s latest fashions, designers and boutiques. On Thursday, July 21, this fall’s Rochester Fashion Week gets a preview as models show off fashions from Mabel Mae Designs, SJ’s Designs, Embrasse-Moi, and Panache while modeling hair and make-up from Scott Miller Salon and Spa. The event will take place at Village Gate’s Atrium (274 N. Goodman St.) 5:30-8 p.m. and will include music, food, and a cash bar. Admission is $20, and all proceeds will benefit the Center for Youth, an organization that provides counseling, shelter and education for young people. Also mark your calendars for Rochester’s Longest Runway, a 5K walk/run on July 29 at Cobbs Hill, where participants can don old bridesmaid, prom and cocktail dresses. Visit fashionweekofrochester. org for more information on both events. You can still use the “good deed” factor this week to motivate yourself into a different exercise venture.

SPECIAL EVENT/LECTURE | GROWING TOGETHER CONFERENCE
By transforming urban schoolyards into organic gardens, Rochester Roots offers city youth the opportunity to learn about the impact that good food production and consumption can have on the environment, and on ourselves. It also fosters a concrete feeling of empowerment when the kids nurture plants from seeds to the final product. You can learn more about the organization’s efforts at the Growing Together with the Three Sisters Conference. On Monday, July 25, at 7 p.m., attend a presentation, movie screening, and discussion with environmental activist, children’s author, artist, and filmmaker Lynne Cherry at Downtown Presbyterian Church (121 N. Fitzhugh St.). Cherry will discuss her “Young Voices on Climate Change” short movies, and talk about using nature to integrate environmental activism into a child’s curriculum. A book signing will take place after the presentation. Free parking available at City Hall, and the cost to attend is $10 for adults, and $7 for students and seniors. On Tuesday, July 26, Cherry and Jan McDonald, director of Rochester Roots, will present on the topics of “Engaging Students in Environmentally Related Projects,” and “Handson Agriculture-Based Learning,” respectively. The event takes place 9 a.m.-4 p.m. at Clara Barton School Urban Farm (190 Reynolds St.). And on Wednesday, July 27, 9 a.m.-4 p.m., Marcia Eames-Sheavly, of Cornell University’s garden-based learning program, will present on “Planning and Fundraising for a School Garden Project,” and Walter Nelson, Horticulture Program Leader of the Cornell Cooperative Extension, will discuss “Healthy Soil, Healthy Science, Healthy Students.” The fee for both day two and three is $80 for adults, $60 for students, seniors, and teachers in the Rochester City School District, and includes lunch catered each day by Savory Thyme, featuring ingredients from the Clara Barton Urban Farm.

THEATER | “CABARET”
The Greece Performing Arts Society has produced a summer musical every year since its start in 1969. In recent summers the group has performed fun, upbeat productions such as “Grease” and “Seussical.” This year GPAS will step away from the lighthearted with “Cabaret,” taking the stage July 22-30. “Cabaret” is memorable both for its racy jazz-club numbers, catchy songs, and dramatic portrayals of racism in 1930’s Berlin. The Emcee of the Kit Kat Klub leads you through the story of complicated relationships during the rise of the Nazi party. This production will star Laura Marron as Sally Bowles and Brian J. Maxwell as the Emcee. Performances will take place at Apollo Middle School (750 Maiden Lane) Fridays and Saturdays at 7 p.m. Tickets cost $13-$15. You can purchase them at the door or at any local Wegmans. Visit greeceperformingarts.org/theater for more information. — BY ALEXANDRA CARMICHAEL [ Thursday, July 21 ] Joe Bean Coffee Cupping.

Violence and blood, magic and myth [ REVIEW ] by George Grella
wizardry, in cinematic technique as well as subject, most of it involving a terrific amount of violence and buckets of blood. “Harry Potter and the The movie begins without preamble, pausing Deathly Hallows: Part 2” later in the plot for some talky exposition and (PG-13), directed by David Yates later still for a series of flashbacks that culminate Now playing in Harry’s final triumph. All the now-familiar characters appear once again, including several The eighth and final picture in the series based who expired in previous chapters of the saga; on J. K. Rowling’s amazingly successful books, most of the faculty and student body of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” Hogwarts return, though somewhat changed by brings the whole franchise to something the events of the earlier films. resembling an appropriate conclusion. To Professor Severus Snape (Alan Rickman) reach that closure, like so many blockbusters and a troop of Death Eaters now run the in our time, it employs a climactic battle, its school, which resembles a prison rather than own version of Armageddon. That climax an educational institution, no longer enlivened follows from a long chain of the usual by the supernatural whimsy of friendly ghosts and comical magic pranks or even the occasional game of quidditch. Although that vision may reflect a truer picture of English boarding-school life, the atmosphere of good old Hogwarts has grown dark and grim under the repression of the Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint (left to right) in “Harry Potter and new regime.
Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) and his pals, Hermione (Emma Watson) and Ron (Rupert Grint), return to the castle to reclaim the place for the students, topple the headmaster, and, above all, fight the good fight against Harry’s nemesis, the colossally evil Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes). With his weird noseless mask of a face, Voldemort, the sort of person who keeps a really malevolent pet snake, makes a powerful and terrifying antagonist; he and his hordes of Death Eaters attack the school with multitudes of monsters and a whole artillery of black magic. Harry, his friends, and the students and faculty of Hogwarts defend the school through a number of long battle sequences, all the while searching for the usual miraculous objects they need to defeat the horrible attackers. Some particular moments in those sequences achieve some really spectacular effects, when the magic of the cinema matches the magic of the subject. When Voldemort sends troops of hideous giants against the defenders, a professor (Maggie Smith) casts a spell that transforms all the medieval statues of the castle into living knights, warriors of animated stone who march bravely into the fray. A fire ignited in the cellars of the castle pursues Harry and his friends in the form of a raging dragon, devouring everything in its path with a mouth of roaring flame. The multiplying metamorphoses serve a functional purpose in the plot, providing Harry

with weapons to fight against the attackers and a means by which he comes to understand his past, his present, and even to some degree, his future. They also show the audience a rapid recapitulation of moments from the earlier films in the series, reflecting, despite the artificial absurdity of the subject, a kind of logic in the magic. Despite the brilliance of much of its action and images, “The Deathly Hallows” often falls into the patterns of the earlier movies, repeating scenes, resurrecting characters, and projecting the familiar superficial formulas that substitute for emotion. Its several moments of orotund moralizing and pedantic instruction ring just as hollowly as in all the “Potter” flicks. Even the several wand fights turn into a simple and repeated business of two people pointing their magic sticks at each other and flashing lightning back and forth. This dark, bloody, violent final picture also recalls some of the mythic material suggested in its predecessors, with glimpses of bits of the territory and characters mapped by Karl Jung. It features such figures as a Wise Old Man (Dumbledore) and a Wonderful Boy (Harry, of course) and symbols and creatures unearthed from the racial memory. It ends with a death and resurrection, and a final Potter decision that recalls “The Tempest,” an appropriate if somewhat ambiguous gesture to conclude the best of the entire, brilliantly filmed if occasionally tiresome saga.
So in the seven years I’ve been babbling in this space, I’ve only had one opportunity to discuss one of my favorite filmmakers, Michael Winterbottom, despite the fact that he’s been cranking out both narratives and documentaries at a pretty steady clip since the mid-90’s. His most successful film might be the 2007 Angelina Jolie drama “A Mighty Heart,” but arthouse audiences know Winterbottom best for stuff like 1997’s gritty war piece “Welcome To Sarajevo,” 2002’s buoyant Manchester snapshot “24 Hour Party People,” and 2006’s factual fiction “Road to Guantanamo.” The shapeshifting Winterbottom also does TV, too; his latest film is “The Trip,” wherein he takes his six-episode BBC series about two bickering buddies on a culinary jaunt through Northern England and whittles it

to “Sideways” length, resulting in a funny, bittersweet meditation on aging and success. Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon sort of play themselves (just as they sort of did for Winterbottom’s “Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story”) in “The Trip,” with Coogan snagging a restaurant-review assignment from the London Observer and inviting Brydon along after Coogan’s girlfriend bails on him. (And, apparently, after asking a whole bunch of other people first.) Friends, colleagues, and competitors, Coogan and Brydon hit the road in the former’s Range Rover, letting their differences lay the groundwork for repartee. The better-known Coogan, last seen in “The Other Guys,” plays himself as a narcissist and a womanizer, his fleeting encounters with American fame both fueling and shaming his ego. Welsh-born comedian Brydon, on the other hand, is a family man who seems perfectly content with one wife and one baby and one career that wouldn’t get him recognized out of the UK. At first you wonder why the lovable Brydon would tolerate the crabby Coogan, who takes every opportunity to knock his so-called friend down a peg. But spend more time with them and it becomes clear that that’s merely their long-established dynamic, which thrums with a faint but obvious current of affection, as well as an unmistakable dusting of envy on both sides. As “The Trip” goes on and the two men meander through the spare but gorgeous Lake District, stopping at posh eateries along the way, Coogan and Brydon engage in hilariously deadpan exchanges, many of which feature our heroes trying to one-up each other with their dueling impressions of Michael Caine, Woody Allen, etc. The silliest bit in this largely improvised film finds Coogan and Brydon riffing (and thoroughly amusing each other) with that cinematic chestnut about waking for battle... oh, whenever. But it’s not all about the yuks; Coogan in particular gets to display a subtle, touching bit of middle-aged
malaise, mostly connected either with his desperate need to confirm his appeal to women or his frustrating career trajectory. Stateside prominence is Coogan’s proverbial white whale, as evidenced by a wicked dream sequence featuring a cameo by Ben Stiller as a fast-talking Hollywood type who showers Coogan with hilariously insincere praise. (Coogan’s other troubling dream is pure sight gag.) Actually, I’ve found myself thinking about “The Trip” quite a bit, largely because of Coogan’s performance, which is so non-performance in its honesty about insecurities as to be rather gutsy. There’s really no plot, and neither “character” undergoes any major change, but Winterbottom still manages to shift our sympathies once we recognize ourselves. Hey, ever heard of Karakalpakstan?
Me neither, until I saw the essential documentary “The Desert of Forbidden Art.” Turns out this independent republic inside Uzbekistan is home to one of the world’s most important troves of art, and the story of how it got there is as inspiring as the art itself. Sir Ben Kingsley voices the words of Igor Savitsky, a failed artist who spent much of the 20th century risking his own neck to gather up works by Russian artists — 44,000 pieces! — just as the Communist Party was working overtime to quash individuality. Co-directors Amanda Pope and Tchavdar Georgiev speak with Savitsky’s contemporaries as well as the artists’ families, painting a portrait of a man driven by tradition, honor, and beauty to ensure that the work survived. Of course, the actual art is the star here; vivid, emotional images created by people who refused to let physical hardship dim their passion. But its fate hangs in the balance as this remote museum faces threats from both man and nature, making this documentary a mustsee for anyone who values the basic human right of self-expression.

Canandaigua, Greece, Henrietta, Tinseltown, Vintage 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.

“Hangover”-esque comedy in which she stars as a woman tapped to be her best friend’s maid of honor, despite the fact her own life is in shambles.

school and develops a crush on Julia Roberts’ similarly unfocused teacher. Canandaigua, Pittsford, Tinseltown MIDNIGHT IN PARIS (PG-13): Time for your yearly Woody Allen film; this one, set in the City of Light, is a time-hopping ensemble comedy about the dueling illusions of love and art starring Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams, Marion Cotillard, and Kathy Bates as Gertrude Stein. Little, Pittsford TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON (PG-13): Hopefully there’s more than meets the eye in Michael Bay’s third chapter of the battle for whatever among some robots and some other robots and a bunch of people.

Vibrant Victorian on Vick Park 37 Vick Park A This historic city property has the best of both the 19th and 21st centuries. The 1887 house is a charming Queen Anne with an elegant exterior and an interior full of original detail. The tastefully updated kitchen, pantry and wood pellet stove reflect the 21st century. A lovely pergola leads from the back of the house to a delightful two story carriage barn with two original horse stalls, wainscot walls, a cupola with original mechanics, a tack room and heated second story. There are three large sliding panel doors to an area where the horses once entered that can now be used as a two car garage. This historic carriage barn has great potential and also takes you back to an earlier time when Vick Parks A and B were a race track. Vick Park A had the horse stables and right behind on Vick Park B, was housing for the trainers. The house’s original owner was CW Crosman, a local seedman. Each subsequent owner has been a good steward and now is your opportunity to care for this historic property. A walk through the house begins on the elaborate front porch where you may have been resting after a walk or bike ride from a nearby Park Avenue restaurant. As you enter through the original double wood doors, you are greeted by a welcoming front hall with a gracious stairway to the left and to the right a large living room with cove molding,
bay windows and a carved mantle. There is a sitting room with the original 1887 brass rod and rings for the velvet draft stopping curtains. The current owners use the charming enclosed side porch entrance from the gravel driveway. A bright and spacious dining room leads to a nicely designed kitchen with the original built-in ice box, now used for storage. Stairs lead down to the basement which houses the furnace, water heater and mechanics for the air conditioning (an added bonus!). A rear stairway leads up from the kitchen to the four bedroom, two bath second floor. Three bedrooms are spacious and bright and the fourth is a master suite—unusual for the time—with a generous closet and tiled bath. There is so much more and your opportunity to see it all will be at the open house on Sunday, July 24 from 1-4 p.m. The price of this 2,046 square foot home and additional carriage barn is $299,900. Please contact Rosalind Clancy, Hunt Real Estate ERA/Columbus at 785-2031 or 737-1280 or visit http://rochestercityliving.com/property/ R162939 for more information. by Sharon Pratt Sharon is Museums & Education Associate with The Landmark Society
