The fixes must start in the classrooms, not the offices. The board, union leaders, and the superintendent must trust that there are teachers, parents, and principals who are more capable than they are.

GOTTA SAY IT AGAIN

I so appreciate comments on this issue because they mean that some people still care about public education. The comments reflect exactly the complexities of preparing and schooling children who live in socio-emotional climates of desperation and despair as we fight to prepare them for college and careers.

We force public school students to study academic concepts when we fundamentally understand that when one’s basic needs of food, clothing, shelter, safety, and familial love are not met, then the intellectual pursuit of formalized education is a moot point.

Suspensions look bad to the eyes of some people, but the district needs to put in place serious consequences for the students who do wrong.

Minor infractions for some people seem normal and innocent. But when things scale to the point like other states’ shootings, everyone is surprised. But in reality, nobody wants to face the reality of the problems.

Our society took the responsibility from the parents and now sadly, many parents are not taking responsibility to raise their children as good and productive citizens of this country. Stop giving everything to them. Make them accountable for their own children.

They brought them into this world, now take responsibility.

Safety is a huge concern. We have a few menacing students wreaking havoc in our schools because they can. They run the schools because they are untouchable. Students do not feel safe. What are we going to do about that?

URBAN JOURNAL | BY MARY ANNA TOWLER

A do-nothing Congress?

We ain’t seen nothing yet Well, for anybody who loves a good fight, the next couple of years ought to be just splendid.

Members of Congress will have plenty on their plates when they start their new session in January: government funding, tax policy, trade policy, economic growth, inequality, health care costs, Russia, China, Iran, Isis, infrastructure, education, immigration, climate change….

With the midterm elections behind us, Congress might want to settle down and get things done. But no. We’re still five weeks away from the Republican ascension, and the damage is already piling up.

Last Friday – the day after President Obama’s announcement on immigration – Republicans in the House filed suit over two actions the president took related to the Affordable Care Act. The same day, House Speaker John Boehner said Republicans would try to prevent Obama’s immigration reforms from taking place. Some House Republicans were talking about shutting down the government again.

Mitch McConnell, who will be the top dog in the Senate come January, said Republicans are “considering a variety of options” to fight the president’s immigration plan. “But make no mistake,” he said. “When the newly elected representatives of the people take their seats, they will act.”

Action at last! But it looks like the action will be the kind we’ve seen from Republicans with the Affordable Care Act: all obstruction.

And here’s the thing: Republicans in Congress could have acted on immigration before. In fact, some of them did. In June 2013, Republicans and Democrats in the Senate joined together and passed an immigration bill that Politico called “the most monumental overhaul of U.S. immigration laws in a generation.”

But the Republican-dominated House killed the chances for reform. Boehner wouldn’t let a bill come up for a vote.

Politico has now fleshed out the story behind Obama’s decision to act last week. After Obama was re-elected in 2012, Republicans “flirted with – and invariably backed away from – proposals for comprehensive immigration reform,” Politico’s Carrie Budoff Brown, Seung Min Kim, and Anna Palmer write. The reason: the sharp division in Republicans’ own ranks. Conservatives wanted no part of letting undocumented immigrants stay in the country.

This year, House Republicans came close to passing an immigration bill, according to the Politico report. Florida Representative

House Republicans are upset with President Obama’s immigration announcement. Will they use that to block other Obama initiatives?

Mario Diaz-Balart crafted a compromise bill, lobbied hard for it, and seemed to get enough Republican and Democratic support that it could pass as a bipartisan bill, the Politico report says.

Diaz-Balart kept the White House informed on what he was doing. “Obama held out hope that Diaz-Balart might succeed where so many others had failed,” says the Politico report, “agreeing to delay the release of a narrow batch of executive actions on immigration to avoid antagonizing conservatives at a delicate moment in Diaz-Balart’s negotiations.”

But then in early June, Eric Cantor, “who had gingerly supported certain immigration reforms,” lost his seat in the Virginia Republican primary, with immigration a key issue, says Politico.

That was the end of that. And later that month, Boehner “informed Obama that not only would his Republican members decline to address immigration, they planned to sue the president, as well, for exceeding his authority in a variety of administration actions taken in the absence of congressional approval.”

In a National Journal article posted shortly before Obama’s address last week, Norman Ornstein, resident scholar at the conservative think tank American Enterprise Institute, had this observation about federal immigration reform efforts: continues on page 7

New charter opening

The New York State Board of Regents has approved Greater Works Charter School to open in Rochester in 2015. The school will initially have 100 ninth-graders and is expected to provide students with a combination of personal classroom instruction and online instruction. Ted Morris, 22, is the school’s founder.

Duffy to lead the RBA

Lieutenant Governor Bob Duffy will succeed Sandy Parker as president and CEO of the Rochester Business Alliance on January 5, 2015. Duffy’s interest in the position was well-known. He is former mayor of the City of Rochester.

McFadden question unsettled

The City of Rochester’s Ethics Board met but did not decide whether Adam McFadden has an ethical conflict in his dual role as City Council member and head of the Rochester Housing Authority. City Council member Jackie Ortiz asked the Ethics Board to look into the matter after the firing of former RHA director Alex Castro, followed by the

immediate hiring of McFadden, raised questions in the community. The board reportedly needs more information before making a decision.

Sidelined pipeline Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand voted against a bill that would have authorized the Keystone XL tar sands crude pipeline. The bill was defeated after falling short of the required 60 votes in the Senate. But Republicans will likely try to pass a similar bill when they take control of the chamber in January.

Frankel weighing second county exec bid

Former Brighton Supervisor Sandra Frankel says that she may run for county executive in 2015. It would be Frankel’s second run for Monroe’s top job; she lost a challenge to Republican incumbent Maggie Brooks in 2011.

Gillibrand pushes for Promise Zone

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand asked the US Department of Housing and Urban Development to declare Rochester a Promise Zone. Under the designation, Rochester would receive preferred access to 35 funding programs, as well as technical assistance to access those programs.

The designation would also allow Rochester to increase public and private investment in programs to reduce poverty and crime, while improving economic sustainability and educational outcomes, says a press release from Gillibrand’s office.

Sandra Frankel, former supervisor of the Town of Brighton and a wellknown Democratic politician in the region, says that Monroe County needs fresh leadership. FILE PHOTO

But if Frankel, a Democrat, runs, it won’t be a rematch. Brooks is termlimited and can’t seek re-election, which means that the county exec race will be wide open. And that, theoretically, gives Democrats a better chance. It’s been a long time since a Democrat occupied the county’s top office. The last Democratic county executive was Tom Frey, who served from 1987 to 1991.

Frankel says that Greater Rochester has opportunities for the future and that it’s time for a change in county leadership. But she says that it’s too early to get into specifics of her potential platform.

“It’s clear to me that county government still struggles under the current administration,” she says.

Frankel says that she doesn’t have a timeline to make her decision, other than “sooner rather than later.”

But Frankel’s name isn’t the only one circulating on the Democratic side. Former District Attorney Mike Green and Lieutenant Governor Bob Duffy have been eyed as possible exec candidates. Though Duffy’s recent appointment to lead the Rochester Business Alliance makes his candidacy unlikely.

And during a brief interview last week, Green said that he’s focused on his job as executive deputy commissioner of the state’s Division of Criminal Justice Services. He wouldn’t confirm or deny whether he’s interested in the county exec job.

“I have no comment right now on any future plans,” he said.

On the Republican side, Gates Supervisor Mark Assini and State Senator Joe Robach have been talked about as possible exec candidates.

“We’re here to do the right thing and provide food for everyone. I didn’t come to this country to produce weapons or smuggle drugs. I produce food.” [ AN UNDOCUMENTED FARMWORKER FROM UPSTATE NEW YORK, SPEAKING AFTER THE PRESIDENT’S EXECUTIVE ACTIONS ON IMMIGRATION. ]

POLITICS | BY TIM LOUIS MACALUSO

Immigration plan’s winners and losers People come to the US to escape extreme poverty and violence, said one Upstate New York immigrant farmworker after hearing President Obama’s immigration speech last week.

“We’re here to do the right thing and provide food for everyone,” he said. “I didn’t come to this country to produce weapons or smuggle drugs. I produce food.”

Reactions to the president’s historic plan to protect more than five million undocumented immigrants from deportation ranged from elation to utter contempt.

The Migration Policy Institute estimates that there are about 5.2 million individuals who will not face deportation as a result of Obama’s plan. Immigrants who are parents of US citizens will be allowed to live and work in the US for three years.

The plan doesn’t benefit immigrants who have been in the US for less than five years, or those who do not have children here.

Some farmworkers in Upstate New York say that they are glad that the president acted unilaterally instead of waiting for the new Congress to weigh in after the first of the year.

But in a phone interview last week, many farmworkers and their advocates said that they are disappointed because Obama’s announcement will not impact them.

Some of the workers have lived and been employed in the area that stretches from Niagara Falls to the Finger Lakes for more than five years on dairy and livestock farms, as well as harvesting everything from corn to grapes. But they lack the paperwork to prove it, says Carly Fox, an advocate with Worker Justice Center of New York.

Warren on Ferguson Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren says that she was not singling out Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson in a controversial Facebook she made earlier this week. Warren’s post went up shortly after a grand jury declined to indict Wilson, a white officer, in the shooting death of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown.

In a lengthy post, Warren says that, “As I was thinking about how to respond, I went back to how the situation started: With a young, unarmed black man and an authority figure who had little regard for this young man’s life.”

The replies to her post range from praise to accusations of racebaiting. Warren says that she was talking about a flawed grand jury process, and not about Wilson.

Rochester has a long history of advocating for social justice, Warren says, and the situation in Ferguson is “a teachable moment.”

“Our legacy has been about embracing those tough issues, talking about them, and doing something about them,” she says.

“So I’m hopeful we’ll be able to do that here.”

Asked what she would tell her young daughter about Ferguson, Warren says she’d tell her to make up her own mind, and to stand for what she believes is right, “even if you’re standing by yourself.”

What happened to HIV prevention?

In the more than 30 years since it began appearing in gay men in the New York City, San Francisco, and Los Angeles areas, HIV/ AIDS has transformed from a death sentence to what is perceived by many as a manageable health condition.

Still, AIDS is the second-highest killer of New Yorkers ages 25 to 44, according to the Centers for Disease Control. And one thing has remained constant, and controversial: even though most HIV infections are preventable with modifications in behavior, new HIV infection rates in the US remain frustratingly high.

NOVEMBER 26 - DECEMBER 2, 2014

And the rates are actually increasing among gay and bisexual men, the CDC says. One study of HIV rates in 20 US cities estimates that one in five men who have sex with men is HIV positive.

The finding raises numerous questions about the state of safe sex in the LGBT community. Is the prevention message failing to reach men who have sex with men? Has the message been heard and tuned out? Have advances in treatment and care changed views about HIV/ AIDS so much that the prospect of infection is no longer threatening?

And has the scientific community’s pursuit of a medical solution come at the expense of advances in preventive health care?

Discussions about HIV transmission and personal responsibility elicit a range of responses in the local and national LGBT communities. Some health workers and community leaders say that it’s an issue that needs to be addressed. Others say that the discussion creates an atmosphere of blame and stigmatization.

And they warn that alienation could make prevention messages even harder to effectively communicate.

The annual rate of new HIV infections in the US peaked in the late 1980’s at around 130,000, according to the CDC. After a subsequent period of significant decline, the rate has been stuck near 50,000 for several years.

Gay and bisexual men have borne the brunt of the new infections. Even though gay and bisexual men make up around 2 percent of the population, they comprised 63 percent of the new HIV cases in 2010, the CDC says.

Between 2008 and 2010, the rate surged by about 12 percent, the agency says.

The numbers are equally sobering closer to home, with more than 180,000 New Yorkers living with HIV/AIDS. The Rochester region has the second-highest infection rate in the state after New York City, according to Trillium Health’s website.

The risk of a magic bullet is you shoot the wrong person.”

DR. V I N CEN T SI L EN Z I O

The CDC reports that in Rochester, the number of men who contract HIV through sex with infected men is nearly 50 percent of all HIV cases.

Understanding why infection rates have remained high in men who have sex with men is a bit like peeling the layers of an onion, says Sean Murphy, a psychiatric nurse with Trillium.

Murphy has a doctorate in nursing and has worked in the HIV/AIDS field for years.

He says that generally, several issues come up when dealing with this group, and that these issues may have been underestimated.

“If you look at HIV, you also have to look at literacy,” he says. “To get federal funding for research, any materials you plan to give to patients have to be at a fifth-grade level. And that was reduced from an eighth-grade literacy level. Disease prevention that requires a fifthgrade level of communication is going to be challenging. That’s just one layer.”

When race and sexuality are taken into account, the matter becomes extremely complicated because some young black males who have sex with men don’t identify themselves as gay. Doing so, according to some research, invites more discrimination.

And the situation with white gay and bisexual men is not what many people believe, Murphy says. The stereotype of white gay and bisexual men as educated and with high disposable incomes is far from the reality, he says. There’s a lot of poverty in the LGBT community, he says, which makes communication difficult.

But what all of these men have in common, Murphy says, is that they live in

Do-nothing Congress continues from page 3

Society’s message is still that being gay is fundamentally wrong, says Sean Murphy, a psychiatric nurse with Trillium Health. PHOTO BY MARK CHAMBERLIN

a culture that generally still advocates for a separate and unequal society.

“I don’t think that we can ever underestimate that even post-‘Will and Grace,’ the impact of negative messages about being gay,” he says.

Has the scientific community’s pursuit of a medical solution come at the expense of advances in preventive health care?

And he sees a correlation to the work of Anna Freud. The youngest child of Sigmund Freud is considered a pioneer in child psychoanalysis.

“She found that the child that’s abused will take on the negative attributes of the aggressor,” Murphy says. He says that if you expand that idea culturally, you may have a group of men who feel the abuse is deserved and that their guard against risky behavior may be compromised.

“The message is gayness is fundamentally wrong and that becomes a part of their psychological landscape in ways that they are not even aware of,” Murphy says.

Preventive health approaches to reduce

HIV infections may also have been undermined by a shifting emphasis on

medical approaches, says Dr. Vincent Silenzio, associate professor at the University of Rochester Medical Center.

The safe-sex message was one of the first serious successes in battling HIV, he says. But the campaign has lost its steam, he says.

“We managed to change behaviors just enough to see a change in the rates of infection,” Silenzio says. “With the capacity for people to become ill and be in treatment, now people think that it’s no worse than if I have to take a statin for my high cholesterol. But wouldn’t you rather go through life not taking anything?”

Another issue: gay and bisexual men have less association with the epidemic’s early years, Silenzio says.

“Part of the original message was based on loss, but when that loss is not occurring anymore, it’s kind of difficult to make that message work in the way that it did when you were confronted with watching people, lovers, and friends getting sick,” he says.

Silenzio says that he doesn’t want to sound dismissive of new drugs such as PrEP, the daily pill that appears to prevent HIV infection. But he says that bending the curve of new infection rates will require high-risk groups to have access to the pill and to take it as directed. And he says that he’s not convinced that will happen.

“The risk of a magic bullet is you shoot the wrong person,” Silenzio says.

“The reality is that there were ample opportunities over the past four years for the House of Representatives to take a constructive step on immigration, especially after the big, super-majority vote in the Senate on a comprehensive bill. It declined to do so. Meanwhile, the favorite GOP talking point on the subject has been that Democrats had majorities in both chambers in 2009 and 2010 and failed to act. Which neatly ignores another reality: During that time, the House passed handily the Dream Act, a major step toward broader immigration reform. There was majority support in the Senate. Guess what? Mitch McConnell led a filibuster that killed the Dream.”

Ornstein said he understood Obama’s “need to act on immigration,” and said he hoped that the president would “delay its effective date until the end of January or mid-February, giving the House one last chance to do something on the issue.”

But Ornstein worried that both House and Senate Republicans will respond to Obama’s announcement on immigration by blocking action on unrelated issues – government funding and administrative appointments included.

We should all be worried.

Like a lot of people, I like what Obama has done on immigration. The goal is to make US immigration efforts both more humane and more effective.

But I’m conflicted about the executive action move. I worry about precedents.

Obama’s Republican critics are right: if liberals think this is OK for this president, we ought to think about what a conservative Republican president might do.

But we also should be concerned when the members of one party in Congress refuse to compromise and try to hold up the operations of government. Given the history of the past four years, the Republicans seem more interested in opposing anything Barack Obama proposes than in meeting the needs ofthe country.

It’s not going to be a good two years.

Dining

On his latest vist to Furoshiki, writer Chris Lindstrom tried the (left) Park Ave Cosmo and the kale salad (kale, crispy sweet potato, mandarin oranges, and house wasabi ginger dressing). He also sampled (right) the chicken ramen (soy broth, chicken, ramen, scallions, egg, greens, and sprouts) and the honey Sriracha wings. PHOTOS BY MARK CHAMBERLIN

Respect the ramen Furoshiki 682 PARK AVENUE MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY:11:30 A.M. TO 11 P.M.; SUNDAY: 10 A.M. TO 11 P.M. SUNDAY BRUNCH: 10 A.M. TO 2 P.M. PARKAVENOODLES.COM; 771-0499 [ REVIEW ] BY CHRIS LINDSTROM

It is core to my mission to enter meals that I review with an open mind and palate.

With that being said, I couldn’t help being pleasantly surprised by the improvement I tasted in Furoshiki’s bowls of ramen compared to those I had sampled in the past. After my recent review meals, I spent some time with one of the owners and asked a few questions about the background of Furoshiki and what had changed in the six months or so since my last visits.

Among the changes he cited was the evolution that comes with being open for a year and continuing to work on the product they are serving. In addition, there has been turnover within the kitchen that naturally led to a change in the direction

of the dishes being turned out, and in my opinion, one that led to bowls of ramen that I would definitely come back for.

A big bowl of ramen is the kind of food perfect for the shockingly cold Rochester days that will soon arrive. Ramen is unpretentious, warm, and comforting. It is meant to be slurped down immediately to get the best texture of the noodles and the additions to the soup. Who doesn’t like grabbing a big spoon and noisily going to town on a slow cooked broth?

Similar to a pizza’s crust, I find that the quality of the ramen broth is key to making a successful bowl. Sure you can have something that tastes fine without a solid crust or broth, but there will always be a limit on how good the end product can be.

My wife and I sampled the pork bone broth in the pork bone ramen ($10) and the chicken ramen ($10), which uses a soy base.

The seasoning was consistent and spot on in both broths and was at a level that had a noticeable salty tinge, but not one that was overpowering in any way to my tastes.

The pork bone broth had a milky white color, which indicated a good amount of

work was put into the cleaning of the bones as part of the intense cooking process. The broth’s thickness was pleasant with a lingering mouthfeel from the gelatin, although I wouldn’t have minded it being a bit more intense. The pork flavor was evident with a mild sweetness to balance out the saltiness and it held up well to an application of the spice bomb ($1) — consisting of chili garlic sauce kicked up with a spice blend. This is a gut warming affair and one that you walk away from satisfied. What the soy base broth lacks in complexity it makes up for in clarity. The soy wasn’t overpowering and had a clean finish that let the toppings speak for themselves.

The wavy ramen noodles are a custom

blend from the well-respected Sun Noodle and came out properly al dente in both bowls. Of course, they will soften if you dawdle too long while enjoying your broth so dig in right away to get the best texture. Rehydrated black fungus and lightly cooked cabbage offered some additional crunch while the scallions and pickled ginger brought freshness to the party. Our eggs had a light soy marinade and were a touch inconsistently cooked

with one of them perfectly soft boiled and the other around the medium side.

Both the tender chicken and pork were grilled and then sliced thin prior to serving in the dishes. Neither made a big impression but weren’t offensive in any way either. I much preferred the add-on of slow cooked and grilled pork belly ($3) we tried — it had a soft layer of fat that almost melted in the mouth.

Even though ramen is the focus, Furoshiki also offers a full menu of accompanying dishes, including salads, sandwiches, and appetizers. What I was most impressed with was the chicken wings and the kale salad. We tried the honey Sriracha wings ($6 for 5 wings) that were quite crunchy with light breading and had an addictive balance between the sweetness and spiciness.

These are wings I’d be happy to eat a dozen of while watching a game. The kale salad ($6) was something I had tried before and continued to be a successful dish with a sharp ginger dressing that stood up to the raw kale. We did try a sake-based Park Ave Cosmo ($6) cocktail which was balanced and a good value.

Less successful were the ahi tuna salad ($11), tofu sandwich ($8), and the pork belly steam buns ($5 for 2 buns). Although the tuna was cooked to rare and the ginger dressing was sharp enough, the tuna wasn’t salted at all which left the dish flat. The tofu and avocado sandwich desperately needed toasted bread or crunchier tofu to get some textural contrast. Everything but the dill pickles made sense to me in the steam buns and if they had been replaced by some pickled radish or carrots I think the flavor profile would have made a lot more sense.

I walked away from my visits at Furoshiki feeling much better about the food overall and knowing that I have a place to go when I want to grab some comforting soup. These are rock solid bowls of ramen well worth venturing out in the cold for and dealing with the awful parking on Park Avenue. The service we received on both occasions was friendly and they were sharp enough to have our soup split into two bowls for ease of service. The environment fits in with the modern Park Ave vibe with simple and non-offensive cute decor.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 29 BUG JAR, 219 MONROE AVENUE 9 P.M. | $6-$8 | BUGJAR.COM [ ROCK ] Clockmen is a tight, exuberant punk trio that

has been melting faces in Rochester for the last seven years.

Its songs are rich, fist-pumping anthems that pull in the audience and let them be a part of the fun. Nick Walter’s guitar provides the crunch with power chords and wailing solos; Adam Pawlukiewicz’s drums are raw and spontaneous; and John Chajka fronts the band with a unique character that is joyful, sarcastic, and never in danger of taking itself too seriously. Clockmen’s new album, “The Dead City Heist,” shows the bands creativity as a soundtrack to an upcoming noir comic of the same name — its story is as entertaining as the band is, as three desperate men get together and make a plan to rob a cola factory. See them now, because after their proposed heist they may all be in jail. — BY ERIC WITKOWSKI

He’s folksy without being to folky, and the man can rock too. Just dig his new platter, “Rural Delivery,” and get the news, Jack. — BY FRANK DE BLASE

David Miller WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 3 ABILENE BAR & LOUNGE, 153 LIBERTY POLE WAY 8 P.M. | $5 | ABILENEBARANDLOUNGE.COM DAVEMILLERMUSIC.COM [ BLUES ] Buffalo-based musician David Miller has blues in his bones. Sultry, plump and soulful, Miller’s sound travels from intimate coffeeshops to high-octane festival stages, depending on his band arrangement. He’s touring now off the release of his first solo album, “Poisons Sipped.” For the project, Miller also brought on that Sacred Steel of The Campbell Brothers. Darick Campbell joins Miller on this tour with his trembling lap steel and portly soul. — BY TYLER PEARCE

[ BLUES ]

Having composed for more than a dozen features including “Captain America: The Winter Soldier” and “Winnie the Pooh,” Henry Jackman’s filmography has thus far been dominated by two main types of movies: superheroes and animation. With “Big Hero 6,” he finally has a chance to merge both styles, combining his heroic thematics from “X-Men: First Class” with the synthesized pluckiness he brought to “Wreck-It Ralph.” As “Big Hero 6” begins with scenes of scientific invention, the album leans heavily on pop beats and electronics for the first half, giving the scenes a sense of bubbling, modern joyfulness. Accentuated by electric guitar riffs and trumpets, the track “Microbots” features whispy, fluttering synths creating an inspirational, yet winking, “anything is possible” vibe that seems pulled from a 1990’s promotional video or 21st-century “Carousel of Progress.” For a movie about modern teenagers, Jackson smartly imbues the score with video game sonic sensibilities, and entire sections — including “Huggable Detective” and “The Streets of San Fransokyo” — sound as if they’d be right at home backing a Mario Kart circuit.

As the film’s heroes progress through their journey, Jackman steadily downplays the “discovery” electronics and increases the “emotional” orchestra’s prominence. “First Flight” showcases a successful merger of both styles, resulting in a grand performance of the score’s main theme that feels both exciting and satisfying. On the album, it’s enjoyable, but when set to the visuals it’s fantastic, accompanying hot air balloon-dodging and sunset-painted cloudscapes. By the time the album reaches “I Am Satisfied with My Care,” the electronics have almost completely fallen away, leaving the film’s climax to be led by strings, piano, and choir. The electro-orchestral-combination returns briefly in the finale track, “Reboot,” but it really craves for an extended end credit suite. Or perhaps simply an inevitable sequel.

The album also includes Fall Out Boy’s “Immortals,” a shrug-worthy poprock song with a mildly-catchy chorus that’s neither great nor offensive — nor coordinates with the score. — BY MATT DETURCK

WHEN LIGHTNING STRIKES FEATURE | BY FRANK DE BLASE

A good concert photographer can document the sound and motion, that palpable energy of a performance, in a second.

It’s in the preparation leading up to that magic moment where sound and image merge that the photographer’s intuition really makes the difference. It’s where the talent lies. It’s a dimensional exchange — a collaboration really — a mash-up of two seemingly disparate mediums which, when juxtaposed, complement one another. The adjectives and observations of one can easily be applied to the other. It’s forever in an instant.

Plugging in all the variables, however — lighting, distance, collaborative cooperation, time restraints — that’s the hard part.

It’s what sets a great photographer or a great photograph apart from the rest. Digital technology has opened plenty of doors to up and coming shutterbugs, but flash cards with 1000-shot capacity and Photoshop to fix pictures post-shoot don’t negate the need for a good, well-composed, well-lit shot. Concert photographers are a study in stealth, a portrait of patience, instilled in intuition and prowess just waiting for lightning to strike.

City Newspaper sat down with five Rochester-based concert photographers to discuss collaboration, art interpreting art, and the ups and downs leading to that great shot when the rhythm and shutter beat as one.

TOM FLINT FLINTWEDDINGS.COM

“Photography always fascinated me,” Tom Flint says. “But it was just a hobby.” Flint studied biology in school, but veered off for a career in photography in 2006.

“After a couple failed attempts at a more structured life, I realized I had to chase my heart,” he says. It was the work of guys like Herb Ritts and the shooters for Rolling Stone that fired him up.

“I saw a portrait of Eddie Vedder in Rolling Stone and I said, ‘That’s what I want to do; I have to do this.’”

The first band Flint worked with was Rochester’s The Buddhahood. “I told them 12 CITY NOVEMBER 26 - DECEMBER 2, 2014

I was a photographer,” Flint says. “I was totally making it up. I still am. I’ve got some credibility now, but I’m still winging it.”

Flint was in awe and humbled by how the relationship between band and photographer worked.

“I was like, these guys are artists, too,” he says. “And it became a collaboration; they’re collaborating with our sight, with our instinct for light with their instinct for sound.” He dove in further with a trip to the Blue Heron Music Festival.

“I just hung around the stage as much as I could,” he says. “It was people blowing

on horns and banging on drums. It was the most amazing environment to be around.”

Flint enjoys the challenge of photography’s see-saw between the technical and the ethereal.

“There’s the technical element,” he says.

“Dealing with light, you get thrown into situations you can’t counter. You’re limited with time, and you have to wait for those moments to happen. You have to get the technical out of the way so when that moment comes you can emote.”

JULI CIALONE CIALONEPHOTO.COM; CIALONEROCKS.COM

“I’ve always had a photojournalistic spirit,” Juli Cialone says. “I’ve always done traditional photography, though I don’t do weddings anymore.”

Though she majored in language, art history, and psychology at Cornell, Cialone was always drawn to photography — especially when it came to capturing live rock ‘n’ roll.

“Rock ‘n’ roll photography was something I always wanted to do,” she says. And Cialone sets herself apart from the crowd in the pit.

“Most photographers shoot a little wider to get the action,” she says. “But me, I want to see the emotional look on their face when they hit that note; when their face is in that zone and it gives you goose bumps. So I do a lot of close-ups. When you pull back you can’t see that absolute glint. I think it’s a really sexy moment.”

It’s a sexy moment with a ton of variables, mainly in lighting, and in the fact that the artists’ primary concern isn’t necessarily posing for the camera.

“You have to determine light sources first and pray to God the artist lands in one of those sources, because they’re moving around.”

Yet Cialone thrives on the spontaneity, the surprise.

“I prefer not knowing what to expect,” she says. “Like a sporting event; there it is, that moment, and it’s exhilarating. I hope my pictures are capturing for the artist what they are feeling at that moment.”

And though she’s a lady that sometimes finds herself in a pit of pushy-shovey shutterbugs clamoring to click a shot and the flailing limbs of stage diving audience members, Cialone has learned to survive.

Her tip to other women looking to get in the photo pit?

“Don’t wear heels,” she says.

Jeff Gerew took photography classes in high school and really loved it. He has been immersed in music all his life, working at the House of Guitars and playing bass in a “hundred bands.” Then he got emulsified at Kodak.

“I wound up in their testing labs, spooling film, packaging paper, right up to working in the camera lab where I would test cameras,” he says. “I worked with all the cameras Kodak made as well as top cameras from Canon and Nikon. I tested the first digital camera backs.”

Then camera and music met when a friend who was shooting concerts dragged him along.

That’s all it took.

“I was hooked,” Gerew says. “By 2006, I started going on my own, found my own magazines, found my own outlets.” Gerew now shoots for the photo service Corbis.

Though a rock ‘n’ roller, Gerew is unencumbered by fandom, — except, he admits, when he first shot Aerosmith — and loves shooting anything where “the band’s really active.”

“I find myself shooting bands I would never listen to,” Gerew says. “Just because they’re so much fun to watch.” And he’s willing to share the pit with newbies and fans.

“I’ll never question anyone’s reason to shoot,” he says. “If you wanna shoot, shoot; have a blast.”

Gerew doesn’t necessarily see concert photography as using one medium to express or interpret another. To him, it’s much more dependent, much more intertwined.

“A lot of their art is their image,” he says.

“A lot of their art is their show. It isn’t just the sound, it’s everything: their stage performance, their crowd interaction. I’ve seen some really cool shit in my day.”

Gerew gets off on the obstacles too — except for song restrictions where the industry standard of only shooting the first three songs applies.

“That drives me f***ing crazy,” he says.

“History was rarely made in the first three songs.” It usually takes a few more clicks of the shutter to nail that perfect sweating, bleeding, airborne, soul-searing shot.

“The perfect photo is a magic moment,” he says. “A jump shot; a look. You can machine gun a hundred shots, but if you sit there and wait for that particular moment…”

SCOTT CORDARO SCORDAR2.WIX.COM/SCORDAROPHOTOGRAPHY

“It was 1979,” Scott Cordaro recalls. “I snuck my first camera in a binocular case into the War Memorial to shoot Tom Petty’s ‘Damn the Torpedoes Tour.’” He hasn’t looked back since.

Professionally trained in wedding photography at The Hallmark Institute in Massachusetts, Cordaro eventually burned out on the lace, champagne, and “I do’s.”

“As a wedding guy, every weekend you were doing almost the same picture,” he says. “So I said I’m gonna go back to what I love: sports and music.”

“What turned me on,” he says, “is you never knew what you were going to get — bad lighting, good lighting, how close the band would let you get, every performance was going to be different, some just sat there, others came out and put on a show.”

Cordaro looks for his shots to be organic, natural… his vision is part of the show.

“The expression I’m looking for is when they are showing me passion. Don’t pose, sing.

And like a band connects with the music, I can connect with what’s going on as well.” continues on page 14 rochestercitynewspaper.com CITY 13

FRED SANFILIPO “I didn’t really become passionate about photography until five or six years ago,” Fred SanFilipo says.

SanFilipo is a graphic designer by trade.

He used to take pictures in the 70’s and 80’s — the film days — back in school, but then lost interest. It was the lack of control with the medium that left him cold.

“You shot your pictures, you got slides or you got prints, and that was it. But I found Photoshop through my job as a graphic designer, and got my first digital point and shoot six years ago. It rekindled that love again for photography. It changed everything about the craft for me. It’s not just about taking

pictures. It’s about being able to enhance them, to bring out details, to make them better.”

The camera is his instrument.

“I’ve always been a frustrated musician,” SanFilipo says. “Music is one of the most important parts of my life.”

It’s a love that’s gone back a few decades.

“Way back we had so many of the super groups coming through Rochester: Crosby, Stills and Nash; Yes; Joe Cocker; Bob Dylan; a lot of great musicians. I was shooting black & white film then.”

Though SanFilipo likes to massage the shot in Photoshop, it still starts with a good picture of a good performance.

“When the musician really reaches back and gives themselves to the audience, whether it’s through the intensity, through joy, pure fury, moments when they’re giving their best — as photographers we have to be ready for that, to put our finger on the shutter at that moment and catch that magic. When you put all the variables together it makes it that much more challenging,” SanFilipo says. “But all that more rewarding. It’s forever.”

WORLD | ADITYA VERMA AND SANDEEP DAS

REGGAE | MIGHTY CROWN

Aditya Verma and Sandeep Das are at the forefront of carrying on the traditional sounds of India. Strong emotion, oral tradition, and a history of improvisation simmer in their sound. Verma, hailing from Montreal, is an internationally-acclaimed sarodist, while Das, of India, has two Grammy-nominations under his tabla playing. Das’s hand drums have taken him from Carnegie Hall to the Lincoln Center and on to stages with Yo-Yo Ma around the globe.

With his sarod, Verma has crossed continents as well as numerous lecture halls to help propagate Indian traditional music. The sarod is unique: Its many auxiliary strings act as resonators that leave a lingering halo of sound — like its own built-in reverb. Intimate, extemporized sounds from these two players coalesce to create a vibrant cushion of Indian flavor.

A Japanese reggae group may make you do a double take, but rest assured, Mighty Crown is no joke. Known as “The Far East rulers of dancehall,” the band has gained a reputation in the reggae community as one of the better acts around, performing frequently at huge reggae events around the globe. The group puts out mixtapes that sample various hip-hop artists — they seem to love Jay-Z’s songs — and give them a dancehall makeover, but they really shine in a live setting.

Aditya Verma and Sandeep Das will perform Wednesday, December 3, at Hatch Recital Hall, Eastman School of Music, 26 Gibbs Street. 8 p.m. $13-$15. 454-2100; esm. rochester.edu. — BY TYLER PEARCE

ELECTRONIC | THE MANHATTAN PROJECT

For The Manhattan Project, it’s all about the flow.

Rochester-based duo Shawn Drogan (drums, electronics) and Charlie Lindner (keyboards, synths) create mostly instrumental tunes that take shape, transition, deconstruct, and morph into the next soundscape. The duo’s elastic sonic palette also makes you move and groove. When I caught The Manhattan Project a few years ago, it opened for a national act (that shall remain nameless) and pretty much stole the show. Drogan and Lindner’s talents are honed by plenty of gigs. The pair spent 2014 on the road, and this hometown tour stop is The Manhattan Project’s last concert of the year before it goes into the studio to record new material. Stereo Nest, Risik, Jameson Alexander share the bill.

The Manhattan Project performs on Wednesday, November 26, at The German House Theater, 315 Gregory Street. 7 p.m. $10-$15. zeppabistro.com; themanhattanprojectlive.com. — BY ROMAN DIVEZUR [ DJ/ELECTRONIC ]

Singing and dancing on the mean streets “West Side Story” PRESENTED BY RAPA AND THE ROCHESTER LATINO THEATRE COMPANY REVIEWED SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 22 CONTINUES FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 28, THROUGH SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 30 KODAK CENTER FOR PERFORMING ARTS, 200 WEST RIDGE ROAD 7:30 P.M. ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY; AND 2 P.M. ON SUNDAY | $20-$55 | KODAKCENTER.ORG [ REVIEW ] BY DAVID RAYMOND

“West Side Story” may be nearly 60 years old, but it’s remarkably spry. The 1957 musical blended drama, music, and especially dance as no musical before it had quite done, and few musicals after it have completed the equation quite as elegantly. It’s an ambitious choice for a joint production by RAPA and The Rochester Latino Theatre Company.

The two organizations joined forces last spring for a successful production of a more recent musical, “In the Heights,” and now they’re tackling this classic.

This “West Side Story” is a pricey ticket by community theater standards, and though the venue is impressive, it is also problematical. But your ticket does give you the opportunity to see a stage full of 18 CITY NOVEMBER 26 - DECEMBER 2, 2014

talented young people demonstrate what made this show a classic in the first place.

Nobody needs to be told how good Leonard Bernstein’s music and most of Stephen Sondheim’s lyrics are, but Arthur Laurents’s laconic book for “West Side Story” is pretty good itself. Not only is it an ingenious retelling of “Romeo and Juliet” on the mean streets of 1950’s New York, but some of the dialogue about Latin immigrants and their bad treatment might have been written last week. (The lyrics include a few pieces translated into Spanish; I assume not by Sondheim.)

One drawback for directors and choreographers of “West Side Story” is Jerome Robbins’s original production.

Like a few other classic Broadway stagings — including Robbins’s own “Fiddler on the Roof ” — the director’s imagination served the material so well that it’s to imagine anyone doing it differently with much success.

So this production of “West Side Story” looks pretty much like most other productions of “West Side Story.” This is not at all a bad thing if you fill the template well, and this production is bursting with young talent.

The leading roles of Tony (Kyle Critelli) and Maria (Allison Macri) are ideally cast and sweet-voiced; Macri makes Maria a pleasantly spunky character

Laurents (and I suppose Robbins) differentiated each gang member with a name and a characterization, and this cast had me looking all over the stage to catch individual reactions and bits of business. The showiest supporting role is probably that of Maria’s cousin Anita — who gets to sing “America” and “A Boy like That” — and Yvana Melendez is a real spitfire in this part. Alec Powell portrays Riff gently but effectively, and the adolescent attraction he has for Tony is sensitively played. Michael Cantatore has already won an RBTL Stars of Tomorrow Award in the past for playing Action, and he’s exactly the bundle of angry nervous energy the part calls for. Even the four non-singing adult roles are cast for strength (Billy DeMetsenaere makes a very credible and emotional Doc).

The singing, directed by Tamar Greene, is uniformly excellent, but the orchestra, directed by Jeff Wilson, was extremely uneven on opening night, sometimes spot on but often noticeably sour-toned and tentative.

“West Side Story” is a big show, but the enormous Kodak Center for Performing Arts almost dwarfs it. This is a huge venue, and it’s good to have it back in circulation, but this was a bit like watching a show at Radio City Music Hall. The young voices need miking, and the sound system didn’t do them many favors on opening night: it sometimes dropped out completely or became irritatingly staticky.

Artistic director Eric Vaughn Johnson and choreographers Stefanie Cheshire and Jayme Bermudez have done a good job of filling an enormous stage with meaningful movement. The backdrops and set pieces fill the stage, but it is telling that the two most effective scenes may be the dance at the gym and the “Somewhere” ballet scene, both which appear on a virtually bare stage. Solo or duet numbers, like “Something’s Coming” or “One Hand, One Heart,” can get a bit lost on the huge stage, no matter how well they are performed.

This “West Side Story” moves swiftly, as it must, and the cast always delivers.

And unlike the original cast or the movie, they don’t look like a bunch of ballet dancers in sneakers, but are a realisticlooking bunch of young people of all sizes, shapes, and ethnicities.

ART | “THE VOICE OF NATURE”

Reduction sculpture can feel more intimidating than other methods of sculpting, if only for the plain fact that one false chip can utterly destroy your endeavor. This week, check out the work of a true master, and meet the artist, too. Ock Hee’s Gallery (2 Lehigh Street, Honeoye Falls) will host “The Voice of Nature,” a body of marble sculptures and sgraffitos by Italian sculptor Dario Tazzioli. The show will feature luminous, figurative and animal work in Carrara marble as well as sgraffito (drawings etched into layers of tinted plaster and slip clay). In addition to masterfully urging forms from blocks of cold stone, the artist hand-forges his own iron chisels.

“The Voice of Nature opens Saturday, November 29, with an artist’s reception from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. The show will remain on view through December 30. Gallery hours are Monday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday, 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. in December only. Admission is free. For more information, call 624-4730 or visit ockheesgallery.com.

Silkscreened illustrations (left) by Rochester-based artist Mike Turzanski (pictured at right). PHOTOS PROVIDED

Hip drips Mike Turzanski CHECK OUT MORE OF TURZANSKI’S WORK AT MIKETURZANSKI.COM [ PROFILE ] BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

For many Rochesterians in the emergent art scene, the name Mike Turzanski probably brings up images of intricate line work forming beastly faces and figures full of body distortions, horns, flaccid noses, veiny-hairyand-melting skin, and oozing sphincters in odd places. Though the 31-year-old artist is not shy about a chortling gross-out, the illustration style he embraces for his ubiquitous silkscreened show posters and t-shirts isn’t exactly his only art game. So far, Turzanski’s portfolio includes not just illustrations, but also elegant fashion and portrait photography and music videos.

Turzanski grew up in Utica, and studied photography at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, where he lived for seven years.

“I was always jazzed on being an artist,” he says, in part because his mother would take him to NYC museums and galleries twice a year, from childhood through high school.

While in college, a professor encouraged Turzanski to explore drawing, and he became interested in the odd beastliness in the work of Matthew Barney, who is perhaps best known for “The Cremaster Cycle” films.

For a while, Turzanski drew dizzying layers of patterns. He says he began to develop

the characters he draws now in the last five years, due to the influence of working with character-driven, fellow artist Peter Lazarski.

For two years, Turzanski and Lazarski produced “Hope Mountain,” a biannual DIY newsprint publication with full-page illustrations by a rotating cast of artists. The two are currently working on a full book called “Million Dollar Canoe,” which will be somewhat comic-based, and completed by April.

When Turzanski moved to Rochester

and before he began to focus more on illustrations, a referral led him to work with the musical group, The Revival Hour, for which he created some seriously striking photos and a moody video for the song, “Hold Back.” Since then, he’s worked similarly with other bands, including Tumul, Joywave, Thunder Body, Sports, and most recently, on the packaging design through Carbon Records for Green Dreams’ LP, “Sweats,” for which he created a silkscreen on the album’s B-side, a shirt, and a two poster woodcut-silkscreen package. He also did a photo shoot with the band, and created a music video for their song, “Bug Sex.” Turzanski says the medium he’s still most comfortable with is photography, and lighting is his favorite aspect of it. In addition to creating gorgeous, personality-filled, quirky or pensive portraits of bands and individual band members, he has shot fashion images for the look books for two collections by designer Alexander Campaz.

20 CITY NOVEMBER 26 - DECEMBER 2, 2014

These images can be atmospheric and moody, with the figures swathed in a milkygolden or glowing-pink light that seems to have as much of a presence as the people do.

Here, a model pauses to adjust his cuff, cutting a sharp silhouette amid a rambling patch of brush. And in the same shoot, detail-oriented Turzanski captures bits of fascination from those environments — a labyrinth of tree limbs or the glowing orb of a frog’s ballooning throat — making the body of work as much a portrait of the setting as of the people themselves.

Tucked nonchalantly amid the list of projects on Turzanski’s website is the name “Tyra Banks.” Click it, and you can scroll through a series of fresh-feeling promo photos Turzanski shot for the 5th season of “The Tyra Banks Show.”

This came about after Turzanski left an extremely stressful job as the studio manager for commercial director and photographer Vincent Laforet. “I quit with a big bang, and since I was in NYC, I began taking as many jobs as possible,” Turzanski says. One of which was playing the Macy’s brown paper shopping bag in a few commercials and at the store’s corporate award show, the main producer of which took a liking to Turzanski.

“So when she moved into TV, she ended up hiring me at “The Tyra Banks Show,” he says.

While on board, Turzanski seized opportunities, moving from PA in the field department, to second camera, which entailed anything outside the main studio, then to taking the photos for the show intro, bumpers, and promotions.

“It was a lot of work, often 16-plus hour days, but definitely fun,” he says. “TV was a nonstop seemingly impossible idea. Tons of people working insane hours for a one-hour show.”

Today, Turzanski balances time between

art commissions, personal projects, family, and making music with his band Drippers (which includes fellow artist Adam Maida on the drums), and working part time at Java’s.

Turzanski has two young daughters with his wife Raina, a designer. “I use my free time as wisely as I possibly can,” he says. While the girls are napping, he might be in the basement studio recording something, or drawing.

Turzanski is currently simultaneously working on a New York-based band’s t-shirt design, the album art for a Syracuse-based band, the album art and some stage props for Rochester/Brooklyn-based band Maybird, the music video for Upstate-band Brother Twin, and silkscreening pillows for a friend’s company. “There’s no project queue, they’re all just piled on top of each other,” he says.

“It’s like when you go to the arcade, you know that thing that spits coins? What’s that moving thing? It’s like that. Shifting platforms.”

Ideally, Turzanski says he’d love to keep working with bands he loves on “mega-projects” which include the art, videos, t-shirts, posters, and packaging behind specific records and tours. “It’s fun to see someone’s image for a particular point in time, all the way through.

You definitely feel more invested in it.”

EXHIBIT | “SWEET CREATIONS”: GINGERBREAD HOUSE DISPLAY

It’s no secret that the commercial holiday season now begins immediately after Halloween. And while most of the ways this manifests earn a giant eye roll or a rant, there are a few cheerful traditions that are welcome as soon as the weather turns. For example, when I went to see an exhibit at George Eastman House (900 East Avenue) earlier this month, the museum was in full seasonal swing, adorned with wreaths, lights, and tabletop trees, bringing a welcome pop of green life to the drearier days.

In addition to the decorations, the spiced and cozy scent of gingerbread wafts through the air, originating from more than 60 ornate gingerbread structures created by professional bakers, families, and community groups, which are displayed throughout the museum. This is the 19th annual “Sweet Creations: Gingerbread House Display,” and each creation is available for purchase via silent auction through December 1, with proceeds benefiting future restoration projects at Eastman House. George Eastman House will also hold its annual Holiday Homecoming event on Thursday, December 11, 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Museum hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and Sunday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Regular admission is $14 for adults; $12 for seniors; $5 for students; and free for children 12 and under.

THEATER | “A CHRISTMAS CAROL”

If anything in literature deserves to be called a durable property, it’s “A Christmas Carol.” Charles Dickens’s story of Ebenezer Scrooge and his moral transformation at the hands of three Christmas Ghosts was published in 1843 and has never been out of print. It has been a constant holiday presence in movies, radio, recordings … and, perhaps best of all, in the theater, a very appropriate place to experience moral transformation.

Geva Theatre Center, whose lavish productions of “A Christmas Carol” always feature large casts with many local actors and children, period costumes, and original music. It has become a Christmas tradition for many Rochesterians, who wouldn’t let the holiday pass by without seeing it. For its current production, Geva is bringing back many favorite actors in the leading roles: Guy Paul as Scrooge, Jim Poulos as Bob Cratchit, Melissa Rain Anderson as Mrs. Cratchit, and Remi Sandri as Jacob Marley’s Ghost. Geva’s artistic director Mark Cuddy adapted the script, and Gregg Coffin wrote the original songs.

Geva Theatre Center (75 Woodbury Boulevard) presents “A Christmas Carol,” on Wednesday, November 26, through Tuesday, December 2 (previews), and Wednesday, December 3, through Saturday, December 27.

FILM | “TWENTIES”

For most Millennials, your 20’s are a time of being broke, being listless, and just not really having your sh*t together. It’s easy to relate to the main actors of “Twenties,” an independent comedy, filmed entirely in Rochester, about two friends who are putting off adulthood — despite staring into empty wallets.

So when a bag filled with counterfeit cash falls into their laps, it poses an interesting question: What would you do? “Twenties” was named Kickass Original Feature 2013 at the LA Comedy Festival, and is now making its Rochester premiere.

“Twenties” screens Tuesday, December 2, at The Little Theatre, 240 East Avenue. 6:30 p.m. A Q&A with writers and actors Hobert Thompson and James Battaglia, and director Mike Scipioni will follow after the show. — BY JAKE CLAPP

continues the story and prepares the way for the no doubt grand conclusion.

In the new movie the protagonist, Katniss (PG-13), DIRECTED BY FRANCIS LAWRENCE Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), in a sense serves as NOW PLAYING the pawn of the rulers of District 13, which lies deep beneath the surface of a world of rubble, in their rebellion against the evil President Snow [ REVIEW ] BY GEORGE GRELLA (Donald Sutherland), ruler of the Capitol. That notion introduces one of the two major subtexts The first and second parts of the “Hunger of the plot — the fact that the opposing forces rely Games” franchise earned big profits and critical as much on propaganda as on weaponry (sound praise; they also inspired a good deal of trendy familiar?), pitting their video clips against each talk about empowering young women in action other to convince the civilians to choose their side. pictures, which seems to mean that the heroine The other, related concept should resonate with wields a wicked bow and can fight and kill any viewer — that for their own reasons, good or with the best of them. The new, penultimate chapter in the collection, “Mockingjay,” naturally bad, politicians frequently and happily send young people to die.

President Coin (Julianne Moore) of District 13 and her advisors, with some difficulty, persuade Katniss to serve as their own Joan of Arc, inflaming the citizens of the Capitol to join the rebellion.

They commission a camera crew to follow Katniss outside their subterranean fortress and film her in Jennifer Lawrence in “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1.”

As for the actual conduct of the action, it mostly

consists of sequences of aircraft bombing the rebels, and the enslaved citizens of the Capitol, inspired by Katniss’s rhetoric, making successful but suicidal charges against armed troopers attired in what looks suspiciously like leftover gear from the storm troopers of the “Star Wars” franchise. In what may be a cinematic first, Katniss also shoots down a jet plane with a bow and arrow.

For an action movie, or any movie for that matter, “Mockingjay” runs far too long and concentrates far too much on repetitive speeches

dramatic photo ops against a background of ruined buildings, railing against the terror and destruction of President Snow’s armies. Snow, on the other hand, employs the captured Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson), drugged and brainwashed, in televised interviews, exhorting the rebels to lay down their arms and surrender.

Whether intentionally or not, for a motion picture supposedly about the heroism of a young woman and her compatriots, “Mockingjay” seems surprisingly cynical. In a relatively minor role, Philip Seymour Hoffman plays Plutarch Heavensbee (these names grow increasingly ridiculous), who cheerfully devises the exploitation of Katniss and writes President Coin’s several hysterical rants before the assemblage of her cheering constituents. Heavensbee, the president, and the other advisors also occupy long stretches of talky scenes loaded with awkward exposition.

Bright lights “Beyond the Lights” (PG-13), DIRECTED BY GINA PRINCE-BYTHEWOOD NOW PLAYING [ REVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW

and dull conversations. Despite a cast full of big stars — Sutherland, Moore, Hoffman, Stanley Tucci, Woody Harrelson — the performances entirely lack any spark of life or sometimes even any conviction. Minor eccentricities of dress and makeup constitute the director’s attempts at creating any individuality; the only character with any, well, character is Woody Harrelson as an occasionally comic former drunk named, get this, Haymitch Abernathy.

Whether in keeping with a contemporary Hollywood trend or simply responding to the actual wishes of the young adult audience for the original novels and the adaptations, the movie’s star, Jennifer Lawrence, ranks up there with Kristen Stewart of the “Twilight” franchise for the most insipid young woman in film (as Peeta, Josh Hutcherson matches her perfectly and also provides a suitable rival for Robert Pattinson). Her impassioned speeches seem utterly artificial and she displays only one facial expression throughout the whole picture — unhappy.

Like most heavily hyped movies of any kind, especially a blockbuster with a supposedly empowered young woman as its protagonist, “Mockingjay” has already enlisted the media on its side — even an NPR interviewer drooled all over the director and the film last week — and will presumably repeat its predecessors’ financial and critical success. The film ends with yet another Julianne Moore speech, calling for more warfare against the Capitol; I think we all know who will win.

The release of “Beyond the Lights” signals the heartening reemergence of a film genre that’s sadly become increasingly rare to find at the multiplex these days: the adult romantic drama. Films in which the developing love between two characters gets treated as the focus of the story, and not a side product of whatever highconcept plot it’s been grafted onto, are all too rare. They’ve instead been replaced by empty-headed rom-coms, “first love” subplots in teen coming-of-age stories, or the ridiculous manufactured tragedy ladled onto any number of films based on Nicholas Sparks novels. That this film’s mature romance takes off from a swooning fantasy in which a Rihannaesque pop singer falls for a hunky cop doesn’t render it any less effective; in fact, the emotion and surprising truths the film is able to wring from such a soapy premise makes it all the more apparent that the film is truly something special.

A charmingly heartfelt showbiz melodrama from writer-director Gina Prince-Bythewood (“Love & Basketball”

and the underappreciated “The Secret Life of Bees”), “Lights” tells the story of Noni (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), a budding pop superstar on the verge of her big breakthrough. We’re first introduced to Noni as a musically gifted young girl (played by India Jean-Jacques) entering her first talent competition. Her haunting performance of Nina Simone’s “Blackbird” earns her second place, but her ambitious stage mother (Minnie Driver, humanizing a potentially hateful character) makes her throw away her trophy in an attempt to teach her daughter a hard lesson: In life, being a runner-up doesn’t count.

We flash forward to present day, observing how the timid young girl has blossomed into a star. Her life now filled with red carpets, glossy magazine photo shoots, and “featured” credits on a number of hits from her hip-hop star boyfriend Kid Culprit (rapper Machine Gun Kelly), Noni is a full-on pop diva.

All the while, her mother still manages every aspect of her career, guiding her through the media blitz building up to the release of her first solo album.

But the pressure of all that time spent in the spotlight, being molded and packaged into a commodity, has come at a great cost to Noni’s emotional well-being (it’s no coincidence that the costume design for Noni’s outfits early on tend to feature a lot of chains), and one night she acts on a self-destructive impulse to jump from the balcony of her Beverly Hills hotel room.

Luckily, handsome police officer, Kaz (Nate Parker) is moonlighting as part of Noni’s security detail and saves her at the last second, pulling her back from the ledge.

Naturally, the story quickly gets out and, with the press dubbing him “Officer Hero,” Kaz finds himself pulled into Noni’s world.

As love blossoms between the two, they’re forced to navigate the issues that constantly threaten their relationship.

Noni’s presence in the public eye means that they must forgo any sense of privacy.

Kurt Russell channels legendary coach Herb Brooks in this fact-based story of the 1980 US Men’s Olympic ice hockey team. Brooks subjected his team of college players—classified as the underdog with no chance of unseating the dominant Soviet Union—to a psychologically and physically brutal regime of training that ultimately earned them respect and the gold medal. (Gavin O’Connor, US 2004, 135 min., 35mm)

Meanwhile, Kaz’s police captain father (Danny Glover) sees her lifestyle at odds with political aspirations he has for his son; at one point cautioning that Noni isn’t “first lady material” when it becomes apparent that the relationship is getting serious. Together the couple bond over how little control they often feel they have over their own futures. Refreshingly, the film treats these obstacles seriously, and not as mere contrivances to keep the lovers apart. Even better, the film never argues that the solution to Noni’s problems is to leave her career behind.

Though the subject matter of “Beyond the Lights” is undeniably soapy, the film never crosses the line into camp, offering a credible take on intricacies of life in the music industry that touches on a number of topical subjects, from the hyper-sexualization of women in entertainment, to the constant battle between personal identity and the perception of the public. PrinceBythewood’s sure hand keeps things from getting sappy or overly sentimental, but maintains an earnestness in the emotions of her story that always ring true.

Gugu Mbatha-Raw, who made a huge impression earlier this year in the period drama “Belle,” proves that she’s a star — even providing her own vocals during the musical numbers. Delivering an awardworthy performance, she plays Noni as a fascinating, complicated, and damaged human being. While Kaz’s character would have benefited from a bit more shading (he occasionally comes across as a runway model with the patience of a saint), Parker invests him with a thoughtfulness and decency that make him instantly appealing (the rock-hard abs don’t hurt either), and most crucially, he and Mbatha-Raw have chemistry to spare. In their hands, “Beyond the Lights” perfectly captures that sublime blend of glittery fantasy and aching emotion that every great pop song can provide.

Raines Park, the Colonial Revival style home at 150 Magee presents a stately visage to the city streetscape. A half-block north of beautiful Seneca Parkway and the Maplewood Historic District, this 1910 house anchors an important residential crossroad.

A columned, center entrance porch on Magee shelters an original wood door, topped by a massive fanlight and flanked by sidelights.

Detailed exterior woodwork including stylized dentil molding is painted in cream, with red details, complementing the muted green of the shake shingles. A five-foot hedge provides privacy at the street.

A very large vestibule with a tile floor— complemented by the unusual application of subway tile on the walls—welcomes visitors.

Another door with sidelights opens into the living area. The first floor boasts good-looking refinished oak floors with parquet detailing.

Tall windows throughout allow in the sunshine, making this a bright, cheerful home.

A massive fireplace is the focal point of the entire first floor. Its handsome wood mantle is visible from every room. Tucked behind the chimney are two secret cubbyholes. The living room feels bigger than it is because a light-filled enclosed porch opens off it through natural wood French doors. Facing east behind the tall hedge, the porch is ideal for morning coffee and the paper.

This house began life as a single-family, was converted to a two-family, and in recent years brought back to a single-family home. That explains some of the unusual spaces, such as a

full bath one step down off the living room, a nice walk-in closet near the Raines Street entrance, and a pass-through in the wall between the kitchen and dining room. On the second floor, that renovation allowed for a laundry room with stacked washer-dryer.

French doors lead to the dining room, which is adjacent to the updated kitchen. Maximizing the square footage are cherry cabinets and some newer stainless steel appliances.

The second floor demonstrates that the house has great possibilities for the right buyer willing to invest sweat equity. Three very large bedrooms probably have hardwood floors under the carpeting. Most doors are original; doorknobs are glass; deep moldings grace every wall; a stained glass window lights the staircase; the bathroom has a vintage tub, original towel racks, subway tile, casement windows and built-in medicine cabinet. It will take some work, mostly cosmetic, to get the house to its full potential, but it could be worth the effort.

Maplewood boasts a strong neighborhood association and major Rochester landmarks: the famous Maplewood Rose Garden, Frederick Law Olmsted-designed parks and tree-lined streets, Aquinas Institute, Sacred Heart Cathedral, the Claude Bragdon-designed Maplewood YMCA, and a vibrant branch library.

This 1,750 square foot house is listed for $85,000 through Catherine Wyble, Keller Willams Realty Group West, 585-758-8400.

LOAN SERVICING, LLC, Plaintiff, -against- STACY M. BEEBE; GE MONEY BANK; MIDLAND FUNDING, LLC; “JOHN DOE #1- #50” and “MARY ROE #1- #50”, the last two names being fictitious, said parties intended being tenants or occupants, if any, having or claiming an interest in or lien upon the premises described in the complaint, Defendants. TO THE DEFENDANT STACY M. BEEBE: YOU ARE HEREBY SUMMONED and required to serve upon plaintiff’s attorneys an answer to the complaint in this action within twenty (20) days after the service of this Summons, exclusive of the day of service, or within thirty (30) days after service is complete if the Summons is not personally delivered to you within the State of New York. The United States of America, if designated as a defendant in this action, may answer or appear within sixty (60) days of service hereof. In case of your failure to answer, judgment will be taken against you for the relief demanded in the complaint. Trial is desired in the County of Monroe. The basis of venue designated above is that the real property, which is the subject matter of this action, is located in the County of Monroe, New York. NOTICE YOU ARE IN DANGER OF LOSING YOUR HOME IF YOU DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT BY SERVING A COPY OF THE ANSWER ON THE ATTORNEY FOR THE MORTGAGE COMPANY WHO FILED THIS FORECLOSURE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU AND FILING THE ANSWER WITH THE COURT A DEFAULT JUDGMENT MAY BE ENTERED AND YOU CAN LOSE YOUR HOME. SPEAK TO AN ATTORNEY OR GO TO THE COURT WHERE YOUR CASE IS PENDING FOR FURTHER INFORMATION ON HOW TO ANSWER THE SUMMONS AND PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY. SENDING A PAYMENT TO YOUR MORTGAGE COMPANY WILL NOT STOP THIS FORECLOSURE ACTION. YOU MUST RESPOND

BY SERVING A COPY OF THE ANSWER ON THE ATTORNEY FOR THE PLAINTIFF (MORTGAGE COMPANY) AND FILING THE ANSWER WITH THE COURT. HELP FOR HOMEOWNERS IN FORECLOSURE New York State Law requires that we send you this notice about the foreclosure process.

Please read it carefully.

Summon and Complaint You are in danger of losing your home. If you fail to respond to the summons and complaint in this foreclosure action, you may lose your home. Please read the summons and complaint carefully. You should immediately contact an attorney or local legal aid office to obtain advice

on how to protect yourself.

Source of Information and Assistance The State encourages you to become informed about your options in foreclosure. In addition to seeking assistance from an attorney or legal aid office, there are government agencies and non-profit organizations that you may contact for information about possible options, including trying to work with your lender during this process. To locate an entity near you, you may call the toll-free helpline maintained by the New York State Department of Financial Services at to 1-800-342-3736 visit the Department`s website at www.dfs.ny.gov.

Foreclosure rescue scams Be careful of people who approach you with offers to “save” your home. There are individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a homeowner’s distress. You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services.

The foregoing Summons is served upon you by publication pursuant to an order of Honorable J. Scott Odorisi, Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, signed on the 30th day of October, 2014, in Rochester, New York and to be duly entered in the Monroe County Clerk’s Office, in Rochester, New York. The Nature of this action pertains to a note and mortgage held by Plaintiff on real property owned by the defendant, Stacy M. Beebe. The said defendant has defaulted on the note and mortgage and the plaintiff commenced a foreclosure action. Plaintiff is seeking a judgment foreclosing its mortgage against the real property and premises which situates in the City of Rochester, County of Monroe and State of New York and is commonly known as 26 Alonzo Street, Rochester, NY 14612 and all other relief as to the Court may seem just and equitable.

FORECLOSURE RESCUE SCAMS Be careful of people who approach you with offers to “save” your home. There are individuals who watch for notices of foreclosure actions in order to unfairly profit from a homeowner’s distress. You should be extremely careful about any such promises and any suggestions that you pay them a fee or sign over your deed. State law requires anyone offering such services for profit to enter into a contract which fully describes the services they will perform and fees they will charge, and which prohibits them from taking any money from you until they have completed all such promised services.
