STAGE SUNY-New Paltz stages Goldoni’s Servant of Two Masters

The Department of Theatre Arts at SUNY-New Paltz presents The Servant of Two Masters, a modern adaptation of a commedia dell’arte classic about a troupe of wildly self-obsessed actors up against hard economic times. Directed by Lauren Bone Noble, adjunct faculty of Theatre Arts, this production is an adaptation by Oded Gross and Tracy Young of the original play written by Carlo Goldoni in 1746. The theatrical company at the center of the tale is forced to resort to absurd measures to perform a play about star-crossed lovers, old misers demanding their share and struggling servants trying to keep it all together.

“This production is a play within a play,” said Bone Noble. “These layers of comedy serve to crank up the humor and send the imagined company of actors into hysterics as they endeavor to perform the play without a director and missing an actor.”

The Servant of Two Masters runs from April 11 through 14 and 25 through 28.

Tickets cost $18 general admission; $16 for seniors (62+), SUNY-New Paltz faculty/staff/alumni and non-New Paltz students; and $10 for SUNY-New Paltz students. Thursday through Saturday shows begin at 8 p.m. and Sunday matinées at 2 p.m.

MATILDA CONTINUES THIS WEEKEND AT COLEMAN HIGH SCHOOL

M

atilda, a musical based on the novel by Roald Dahl that’s being performed at Coleman High School in Kingston, continues its run from April 12 to 14. The production is directed by Lisë Hopson, the celebrated longtime Coleman theater director and choreographer who came out of retirement to tackle this musical with a cast of 39, comprised of students from Coleman as well as other districts such as Kingston, Onteora and Rhinebeck.

“I love working with kids, and this show not only has high school kids, it has a lot of pre-high school kids,” Hopson said.

“They get to do a lot emotionally in this show. It’s less confined in terms of choreography than most shows are. They’ve got a little bit more free rein in places. They’re having a lot of fun, and when kids have a lot of fun, I have a lot of fun.”

Hopson said that the importance of youth theater goes beyond just putting on the show. “I think it builds incredible amounts of skills that are relevant to life whether you continue with theater or not,” she said. “When I was a child, I was extremely shy.

I was a ballet dancer, which meant I had to be silent, and I liked that very much because I couldn’t even talk to adults. It was musical theater, starting in ninth grade, that really changed me. It works magic with kids.”

John A. Coleman Catholic High School’s production of Matilda will take place April 12 to 14. On Friday and Saturday, the curtain rises at 7 p.m., and on Sunday there will be a 3 p.m. matinée. Tickets cost $16 for adults and $11 for kids under 12.

HISTORY Rescuing the River Maritime Museum celebrates 50 years of environmental activism on the Hudson, soon to publish Lighthouses of the Hudson Valley

T

urning their gaze to the Hudson, a collection of researchers and historians have planned a series of events in the coming months to celebrate not only the river itself, but also the people who helped save it.

Lighthouses of the Hudson Valley Sarah Wassberg Johnson, education director of the Hudson River Maritime Museum, is the editor of the Museum’s soonto-be published book, Lighthouses of the Hudson Valley. Although only seven lighthouses remain on the Hudson today, dozens of light posts once lined the shores of the river between Troy and New York City. Lighthouses of the Hudson Valley shares the history of these often-unknown lights, their keepers and what ultimately happened to the structures themselves.

Hailing from Fargo, North Dakota, Johnson attended graduate school at SUNY-Albany, where she obtained a Master’s degree in Public History, and soon parlayed that training in historical research into her position at the Hudson

Still fully operational as a navigational light, the Rondout lighthouse is one of only seven lighthouses remaining on the Hudson River.

The brick structure, completed and lit in 1915 (there were two other lighthouses built there before it), is accessible only by boat. It is owned by the City of Kingston and operated by the Hudson River Maritime Museum.

River Maritime Museum. “The late 19th/ early 20th century is my specialty, but the great thing about history is that every era can be fascinating,” said Johnson.

The project originally started when Arcadia Publishing, widely known for its “Images of America” books, approached the Hudson River Maritime Museum about contributing a collection of the river’s lighthouses to its series. Working closely with the Hudson River Lighthouse Coalition, as the research into the book continued, more and more information on lighthouses came to light, so to speak.

“As we kept doing research on the known lighthouses, I kept finding other ones; we kept finding references,” Johnson said. “There are lighthouses, and then there are lights. All navigation back then, the lights in use before electricity, all had to be maintained by either a keeper or, for some of the lights, something called a ‘lampist.’ Almost all of the ones that we didn’t know about were mostly stake lights

or post lights. Some of them were just little pyramidal towers with tall posts to hold a lamp.”

Johnson is pleased by the high level of interest in this topic. “I think this material is extra-exciting to people because it’s not really a topic that’s been widely covered

before,” she said.

Apr. 11, 2019 River’s most important milestones this year. Marking the 50th anniversary of the launch of the Hudson River sloop Clearwater and the passing of the National Environmental Policy Act, as well as what would have been the 100 th birthday of singer/activist Pete Seeger, the Museum will be hosting a special exhibition, “Rescuing the River: 50 Years of Environmental Activism on the Hudson,” which will have a special preview on Friday, April 19, from 6 to 8 p.m. The new exhibition seeks to situate the work of the Clearwater, Riverkeeper and Scenic Hudson in their proper historical and national context. For the first time, the Maritime Museum will include interactive kiosks with additional exhibit materials including short films, thanks to the help of Bank of America.

Tickets for the preview are free for museum members, $15 for general admission. The festivities include wine and light refreshments. Before the preview, there will be free deck tours of the Clearwater from 4:15 p.m. until 5:45 p.m. Register for these events by visiting https://bit.ly/2OYVBfV. In addition, beginning in May and running through the middle of October, the museum will be hosting special walking tours of the Rondout waterfront, on the first and third Saturdays of those months. Attending patrons will be privy to a guided historical exploration of the waterfront, its industrial, social and maritime importance, as well as general admission to the museum at the tour’s conclusion. If the water is more to your liking than the waterfront, join the Museum’s two-hour cruise on June 6 for a guided journey on the water, complete with illustrated lectures, hors d’oeuvres and Johnson’s own talk on the river’s lost lighthouses.

For more information on these events, including ticketing and reservations, visit www.hrmm.org or call (845) 338-0071.

Lighthouses of the Hudson Valley is to be published June 17 through Arcadia Publishing. All proceeds from the sale of the book will benefit the Hudson River Maritime Museum. The museum is located at 50 Rondout Landing in Kingston.

Sojourner Truth statue commissioned for Walkway Governor Andrew M. Cuomo has announced that Yonkers sculptor Vinnie Bagwell has been commissioned to create a monument commemorating famed abolitionist and suffragist Sojourner Truth.

The monument will be located at the Walkway over the Hudson State Historic Park along the Empire State Trail in Ulster County. Bagwell’s proposed design for a seven-foot bronze statue of Truth is intended to more fully represent women and people of all races who have contributed in significant ways to the history of New York State.

“Sojourner Truth’s courage and

determination helped blaze a trail for women and people of color across the country, and this monument will help future generations remember her legacy and inspire them to continue the fight toward a more just society,” Governor Cuomo said. “I am thrilled that the State of New York is commissioning fellow New Yorker Vinnie Bagwell to create this monument, and I can’t wait to see her work depicting this historic figure along the Empire State Trail.”

For more information and a rendering of the monument, visit www.ny.gov/ suffrage.

Like the soon-to-be-unveiled Walkway statue, the most familiar images of Ulster County’s greatest historical heroine – the one on the 1986 postage stamp, say, or the big portrait in the lobby of the library named after her on the SUNY-New Paltz campus – have created an indelible impression in our minds of Sojourner Truth as an elderly woman. We think of someone very tall and rangy, lean and hard-muscled even in old age, of whom we can well believe the boast in her electrifying “Ain’t I a woman?” speech that when she worked in the fields, “No man could head me.”

Nowadays various towns in the county proudly compete for a piece of legacy of the great orator, abolitionist and suffragist at some point in her long (1797-1883) and eventful life. Rifton claims her birth site, on the Swartekill Creek. West Park has mapped the route of her flight as a young woman, from servitude by the Hudson westward over the Shaupeneak Ridge to refuge with an abolitionist Quaker family. In Kingston the courthouse still stands where she fought successfully for the return of her son Peter, who had been illegally sold off at the age of 5 to slavery in Alabama.

But an episode in the life of the girl then called Isabella Baumfree took place in what is now downtown Port Ewen. At the age of 11 she was sold to a tavernkeeper named Martinus Schryver. His inn, where she worked for the next couple of years, stood very near the former site of the Esopus Town Hall. So it was very fitting that the statue of Sojourner Truth was dedicated in a “pocket park” on that site in 2013 depicting her as a girl of 13, in 1810, as recollected in her own narrative of her life 40 years later. That beautiful bronze statue was sculpted by Trina Green of New Paltz. If you visit that piece, located at the corner of Route 9W and Salem Street in Port Ewen, remember to look at the whimsical details sculpted by her feet.

Another interesting thing to check out is an online map of the 11-mile route that the adult Isabella walked in 1826 with her infant daughter Sophia, fleeing the

West Park home of her then-master John Dumont, who had reneged on his promise to free Isabella, her husband Tom and their children. Heading for Poppletown, where a community of Quaker families lived who opposed slavery, she presumably took what is now called Floyd Ackert Road – the steep uphill route used by modern-day hikers to access Scenic Hudson’s Shaupeneak Ridge Park and Louisa Pond. You can download the map, designed by former Esopus town historian Dorothy Dumond, directly at https://bit. ly/2D5AvIa and retrace the great woman’s steps yourself – whether from the comfort of your own car, on a bike or afoot.

cultural angle. The Emerson Resort & Spa – always beautiful and recently revitalized as a venue and cultural hotspot – celebrates it all with “The Road to Woodstock,” a weekend of special events headlined by a questionand-answer session with Michael Lang, co-creator of the original festival and producer of this summer’s reboot at Watkins Glen.

There is no soapbox on-site.

Primack’s poetry publication credits include the Paris Review, Prairie Schooner, Ploughshares, FIELD, Poet Lore, the Massachusetts Review, the Antioch Review, New Orleans Review, Rhino, Tampa Review and many others, and her work has been chosen for several anthologies. Her poem “You Are a Prince,” published in Ploughshares, was featured on PoetryDaily.org. She is also wellknown to locals as a gifted bookseller at the Golden Notebook in Woodstock.

Tiny Hotdogs book launch & cocktail party in Kingston

M

ary Giuliani, queen of cocktail-hour appetizers and caterer to the famous and fabulous, has joined the ranks of Laurie Colwin, M. F. K. Fisher and Ruth Reichl with her latest book, Tiny Hotdogs: A Memoir in Small Bites, in which she recounts going from a “friendless, hairy, deeply uncool” teenager to discovering her passion for food and creating a life around serving it in style.

Especially inspired by Colwin, she says that she became obsessed with the genre that encompasses storytelling and food. “I grew up in a house where we cooked. It was all about food and gathering. There were always stories being told or the story behind the recipe. Everything I made with my mother either came from, ‘This is a recipe passed down from a great-aunt in Sicily,’ or…This book has been a ten-year “AFTER SPENDING labor of love. so much time with so many people “I was an English major in over the years, the solitude of writing college, and always wanted to write was really comforting to me.” and perform, but sort of took this other route; I accidentally ended up working at a catering office 16 years ago. I took the detour because I love it. Catering combined theatrics and food and hospitality. I worked for the company for three years and decided this was what I wanted to do. I started my own company, Mary Giuliani Catering and Events, in 2005.”

Inspired by Nora Ephron’s play Love, Loss and What I Wore, Giuliani wrote a one-woman show called If You Can’t Join ’Em, Serve ’Em. “Through that process I realized I wasn’t that strong of an actress, but I really loved the writing process.

I’ve done thousands of parties in my career; my company does between 300 and 400 parties a year. After spending so much time with so many people over the years, the solitude of writing was really comforting to me.

“Some of the stories in Tiny Hotdogs were taken from the play; some is all-new material. I’ve been able to see incredible worlds and have had glimpses into places we all dream about. And my takeaway is that I’m grateful for the glimpses, but we all think ‘The grass is greener.’ I learned early in my career that, unless I was happy with what I had, everyone’s grass appears greener. I’m kind of comfortable that I’m just the girl with the hotdogs in the room. I’m grateful for the less-ismore, I guess.”

In Tiny Hotdogs, Giuliani details all the major and minor events in her life – a move to a “slanted” apartment in Manhattan at 21, a stint at the Make-a-Wish Foundation, her saved voicemails from Robert De Niro and what they led to, and didn’t – with wit and just enough self-deprecation to put the reader at ease.

Her name-dropping is spiced with the admission that she grew up on pizza and launched a catering company based on tidbits of everyday Italian-American fare.

Delving into her family memories brought her a different kind of joy. “In writing, what struck me was how vividly I remembered the time with my grandparents. My Grandpa Charlie loved four things equally: Carvel, cigarettes, cocktails and me.

Recipes for favorite foods do punctuate some of the chapters in Tiny Hotdogs, such as Deconstructed Pizza Skewers and Italian Challah Grilled Cheese and Nance’s Meatballs and Italian Pigs in a Blanket. But this poignant, funny account is really about relatedness and discovery. “I wanted to share the stories. If you touch one or two people, that’s all that matters.”

President Franklin D. Roosevelt signs the Social Security Act on August 14, 1935.

Standing with FDR are Rep. Robert Doughton, Sen. Robert Wagner, Rep. John Dingell, Rep. Joshua Twing Brooks, Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins, Sen. Pat Harrison and Rep. David Lewis.

Even if Frances Perkins hadn’t been the first woman ever to serve in a US presidential cabinet, or the longestserving Secretary of Labor ever (12 years), she would still deserve a shining place in 20th-century history. She was a suffragist who retained her own last name when she married, worked with Jane Addams as a Hull House volunteer in her youth, advocated passionately for female workers after witnessing the horrific Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in 1911, became the highest-paid woman in New York State government as Industrial Commissioner, taught Sociology at Adelphi University, fought against child labor and for unemployment and a minimum wage – all before she even joined the FDR administration. As Secretary of Labor, Perkins was the author of key New Deal legislation, including the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Social Security Act of 1935. As chair of the President’s Committee on

EVEN IF FRANCES PERKINS hadn’t been the first woman ever to serve in a US presidential cabinet, or the longest-serving Secretary of Labor ever (12 years), she would still deserve a shining place in 20th-century history.

Works Agency and the National Industrial Recovery Act. Kirsten Downey, author of The Woman Behind the New Deal: The Life and Legacy of Frances Perkins, will participate in a book-signing and a symposium titled “Together, We Win: FDR, Frances Perkins and the ILO” on April 15 at the Wallace Center at the FDR Library in Hyde Park.

The event commemorates the centenary of the International Labour Organization, whose current director-general, Guy Ryder, will also be a panelist in the symposium. The other participants will be Scott Busby, deputy assistant secretary at the US State Department; Martha Newton, deputy undersecretary of ILAB at the Department of Labor; Ronnie Goldberg, senior counsel for the US Council for International Business; and Kelly Ross, deputy director of policy for the AFL-CIO. Roosevelt Institute Fellow Todd Tucker will moderate.

MUSIC plate. And then move on.

Over more than 20 years and nearly a dozen studio albums, Dar Williams has distinguished herself as a wildly resourceful, risk-taking though generally traditional writer who, in a way that is starkly contrary to the smart-person aesthetics of her era(s), is truly unafraid of meaning and making it. Her career has moved from a modern, literate and Eastern Seaboard folk thing toward a modern, literate, organic and adult smartpop. Through both the microscope of song analysis and through the macroscope of career arc, this woman’s achievement warrants the term “major.”

Unison Arts of New Paltz keeps the hot streak going, presenting Dar Williams at SUNY-New Paltz’s Studley Theater on Friday, April 12. Ticket prices range from $20 to $30.

“Something to Get Through,” the singer addresses a friend who is in a low patch and can’t see their way out. The song amounts to a hyperarticulate, philosophically thoughtful, keep-your-chin-up locker-room pep talk for depressed and depleted adults like me. I generally wince at the didactic mode wherever I find it, and the mentor roleplay is one of my least favorite rhetorical strategies in songwriting; but, as usual, Dar Williams just wins with it.

The brighttempo song spins its shapely melodies through a series of fresh and unpredictable Beatleesque and Tin Pan Alley chord changes. The vocal harmonies blossom as the gently delivered theme of “Get over it” opens, and eventually, even its message starts to reach me. I have been

life-coached, and I actually feel a little better. The takeaway for me, I guess, is that henceforth only Dar Williams is allowed to write mentor songs, and the rest of you should just focus on the specific things you see on the ground at the bus depot.

It’s the all-infor-now spirit of that song that tells you what you need to know about Dar Williams. She’s a serial monogamist of a songwriter, committed entirely to the mode and meaning of the current song, for the duration of the current song. Let’s say, for example, that Milgram’s electricshock ethics test, from the point of a view of a paid participant (who will end up looking like a sheepish collaborator in evil, but who has bills to pay, you know), has caught her imagination. Out comes an acutely realized, impossibly subtle pop gem, “The Button,” a song infinitely more nuanced and meaningful than Peter Gabriel’s abstract treatment of the same subject, “We Do What We’re Told.” Maybe Dar herself is also skeptical of mentorship songs, who knows? What we do know is that when she takes one on, she is going to see it all the way through to its bottom and use every tool in her deep, deep drawer. She is going to clean her

Suitcase Junket plays Helsinki Hudson on Saturday

T

he film version of Nick Hornby’s beloved music-geek novel High Fidelity is perhaps the most faithful adaption I have ever seen. The filmmakers so revered Hornby’s work that they elected to go with direct narration, just so that John Cusack could deliver huge, unaltered swaths of Hornby’s prose – paragraph after paragraph of it – directly to the camera. The film is, for all intents and purpose, a recitation of the novel.

They moved the setting from London to Cusack’s comfort zone of Chicago (which inexplicably entailed changing the main character’s surname from Fleming to Gordon), thereby avoiding a Costner/Robin Hood debacle, and they made one truly reprehensible plot change: Rob is not supposed to have sex with Laura in the car in the rainstorm. He is supposed to decline it because he is presumably concerned about STDs, a little puerile, poisonous and self-smiting payback for her affair with Ray. It is reverse Hollywood Puritanism. The censors made them add the sex.

Otherwise, the film is the book. High Fidelity in both forms also stands as the definitive depiction of record-store culture and, specifically, of record-store-employee archetypes. I know at least four people who own record stores (John Lefsky, Rick Lange, Spike Priggen and Doug Wygal), and High Fidelity’s Rob pretty much nails what their days are like: boxing mail orders in the back, chatting in the front. But it is the dichotomy of Rob’s two employees, Barry and Dick, that is a pitch-perfect taxonomy of the breed. Dick is withering shy, and maybe a little cooler-than-thou. You have to go to him and pry to get taste out of him. Jack Black’s Barry, on the other hand, is the collarI AM NOT SURE ANYONE grabbing apostle of rock. You will be schooled by him, like it would have predicted the return of vinyl, or not. Most real record clerks are somewhere in between, but and with it the flourishing of record stores, that is why they are archetypes and not people. and with that the renaissance of record-store culture I am not sure anyone would have predicted the return of vinyl, and its barbershop vibe of feverish cultural engagement and with it the flourishing of record stores, and with that the and curation. But here we are. renaissance of record-store culture and its barbershop vibe of feverish cultural engagement and curation. But here we are. It gives me hope that the guitar might come back someday to, re-revolutionized and once again be the alternative to something.

The 12th annual Record Store Day falls on Saturday, April 13. The event is now recognized on every continent except Antarctica.

In-store performances, all manner of sales and swaps, swag and treats: It is just a good day to visit one or more of our local establishments, from the cozy closet of Rhino’s New Paltz location to the sprawling warehouse with the fully outfitted live stage that is Darkside in Poughkeepsie, from Jack’s Rhythms in New Paltz and The Vinyl Room in Wappingers Falls to the Woodstock Music Shop, from Rhino’s stylish Kingston headquarters to the densely loaded Rocket #9 just down the street.

The Record Store Day website informs me that there are 21 participating stores within 80 miles of New Paltz. Eight of those are within 30 miles. I can reach two of them on foot – and so I will, on Saturday, for a taste of an old world come alive again.

n innovator in environmental practice as in music and cultural theory, Basilica Hudson presents its Green Energy Fair on Sunday, April 14 at Basilica’s post-industrial space in Hudson. Produced in partnership with pioneering environmental organizations SunCommon and CYCLEffect Regenerative Ventures, the Green Energy Fair will offer an afternoon of presentations and discussions by community leaders and alternative energy experts.

“Moving toward our ten-year anniversary in 2020, Basilica’s commitment is to enter a more sustainable means of running our building,” said Basilica co-founder and director Melissa Auf der Maur. “Basilica firmly believes that the only way to move forward is by harnessing the power of new technology and new energy. Basilica will move the climate and energy crisis to the top of our mission and agenda by offering access to information and solutions while transforming our building into a model of what is possible.”

The fair features an intensive focus on exploring both community solar and bioenergy – the generation of energy from food waste and similar organic materials – as vital and viable examples of the move away from the archaic, destructive energy models that have left us in climate chaos. Basilica will continue its partnership with acclaimed filmmaker Jon Bowermaster with a screening of the latest film in his Hudson River Stories series, Growing with the Grain. The list of panelists also includes: Cassie Marketos, Kickstarter’s senior vice president of community strategy and former deputy director of digital outbound for President Barack Obama; SunCommon, Vermont’s largest solar provider; and representatives of Impact Bioenergy, who will unveil their HORSE biodigester at Basilica and teach Green Energy Fair attendees how to transform food scraps into renewable energy.

NATURE WILD WONDER

Peep show Seldom seen and rather noisy, the Northern Spring Peeper is a little frog with some amazing abilities They can survive being frozen.

Most frogs bury themselves in mud to keep their body temperatures above freezing. Not the peeper. It hibernates under leaf litter and logs. When temperatures dip below freezing, the frog’s liver begins to produce glucose, which prevents cell damage even when most of its body is frozen. During this time, the frog’s heart stops beating and it appears dead. But the clock is ticking: One study found 85 percent of frogs survived three days in the state, while 50 percent survived for a week. This cold tolerance is why the frogs are the traditional first to call each spring.

name: pseudacris crucifer, which means “cross-bearing false locust,” the latter a reference to its insect-like call. If “crucifer” sounds familiar, it’s because it rhymes with Lucifer. The first the cross-bearer, the second the light-bearer. It’s quite biblical, which is appropriate for a frog who begins to call around Easter.

On the move Like many amphibians, the spring peeper breeds in temporary ponds formed by snow melt and spring rains called vernal pools. Each year, amphibians make a pilgrimage to these pools, usually on the first warm, rainy night.

Danger from the sky Falling bullets versus meteorites

M

eteors usually smash into Earth’s atmosphere at between 22 and 37 miles per second. Sounds perilous.

Happily, atmospheric drag makes all meteoroids weighing less than eight tons lose every bit of their cosmic velocity. Before they even descend to where jetliners cruise, a meteoroid starts falling solely because of Earth’s gravity, and soon reaches its terminal velocity between 200 and 400 miles per hour. That’s the impact speed of most meteorites hitting roofs or lawns.

Frightening danger gets delivered by meteoroids weighing more than ten tons, because these retain a portion of their original space velocity. According to the American Meteor Society, a tenton meteoroid entering our atmosphere will retain about six percent of its cosmic velocity on arrival at the surface. So, if a large meteoroid started at 25 miles per second, it would strike the surface moving at 5,400 miles per hour. On the very serious end of the scale, a meteoroid of 1,000 tons would retain 70 percent of its cosmic velocity, and bodies of over 100,000 tons will cut through the atmosphere as if it were not even there.

Fortunately, such larger meteoroids tend to break up between seven and 17 miles above the surface, and the disintegration makes its pieces abruptly slow down, due to their reduced momentum. So fragments, or at least small bodies, are what’s likeliest to rain down on us. They cannot be too perilous, since, alone among the 100 billion humans who have ever walked on our forgiving planet, only Ann Hodges in Alabama managed to be struck. The injury to her upper thigh in 1954 remains the only documented human meteor injury.

Still, it can happen. Should you be concerned? Is there any way to assess the medical danger from small meteoroids? Perhaps so, thanks to the strange human proclivity for celebratory gunfire. That’s when people (mostly males, in places like southern Pakistan and the Balkans) fire guns straight up, usually during occasions like New Year’s Eve. You’d think the chance of injury would be minuscule. Not so. After doing some serious research, I found that, in Puerto Rico alone, two people are killed and 25 injured each year because of bullets that came down on their heads.

At the end of the Gulf War, when many Kuwaitis celebrated by firing weapons into the air, 20 people died from falling bullets. In Los Angeles between the years 1985 and

Bullets fired into the air during celebrations return at a speed of up to 400 miles per hour, which well exceeds the 136 miles per hour at which a bullet can penetrate the skin and damage organs.

1992, doctors treated 118 people for random falling-bullet injuries at King/Drew Medical Center, and 38 of them died. It’s enough of a public health concern that celebratory gunfire is illegal in the US. Bullets fired into the air during celebrations return at a speed of up to 400 miles per hour, which well exceeds the 136 miles per hour at which a bullet can penetrate the skin and damage organs. In experiments conducted before World War II, 30-caliber rifle bullets fired straight up reached an altitude of 10,000 feet and ultimately descended at speeds as high as 400 miles per hour, which is easily capable of fracturing bone and causing intracranial penetration. A study in the Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection and Critical Care showed that, of the 118 patients treated since 1985 who were struck by spent bullets, 77 percent were hit in the head, and these had a mortality rate of 32 percent.

But location matters. A falling object slows dramatically in thicker air. Since resistance decreases with altitude, falling meteorites and bullets are more deadly in Lhasa, Tibet than in Kingston.

Now for the practical conclusions: What if you’re around someone here in rural, generally gun-owning Ulster County who fires their weapon straight up?

Simply walk into the house. On average, it will be 15 seconds before the bullet returns.

You’ll only find these safety tips here, in Almanac.

“Zone Out Fossil Fuel Power Plants” in New Paltz on Wednesday Recently the New York Independent System Operator, the not-forprofit corporation that manages the electricity grid for all of New York State and administers the wholesale electricity market, established a new “capacity zone” in the lower Hudson Valley, Zone G. This is supposed to ease congestion on power transmission lines from upstate counties to the New York City metropolitan area during times of high demand by incentivizing the production and consumption of power on a more regional basis. It’s also supposed to ease upstate/downstate disparities in the consumer cost of electrical power.

Refugee discussion follows screening of Sky and Ground in Rhinebeck

A

midst the current furor over the inhumane treatment of refugees detained and families separated at the US/ Mexico border, public attention has been diverted away from what is undeniably the largest-scale humanitarian crisis of this time: the plight of the millions fleeing civil war in Syria. Filmmaker Joshua Bennett offers an immersive look at the realities of these refugees in his documentary Sky and Ground, to be screened on Saturday afternoon, April 13, at noon at Upstate Films in Rhinebeck.

Traveling on foot, the film crew accompanies the Nabi clan – a large Syrian/Kurdish extended family – as they painstakingly make their way from their home in Aleppo, bombed out by the war, to the Idomeni refugee camp on the border of Greece and Macedonia. Their goal is Berlin, where they will reunite with family members and seek asylum. But first they must make the arduous and dangerous 2,000-mile journey through Serbia, Hungary and Austria.

Following the noon screening on April 13, Bennett will join a panel discussion that also includes Lea Matheson, senior advisor on migration and humanitarian issues in the Office of the President at the UN; Vassar College professor Maria Höhn, co-founder of the Mid-Hudson Refugee Solidarity Alliance and part of the Consortium on Forced Displacement, Migration and Education; and Ahek Festuk, an activist from Aleppo, now living in New York, who was one of the pioneering women demonstrators against Bashar al-Assad.

The event is being presented for free, as part of Upstate Films’ Engage Film Series. Donations taken at the door ($10 suggested) will benefit Albany’s Refugee Welcome Corporation. For more information, visit https://upstatefilms.org/sky-and-ground.

Jim Jarmusch brings zombies to the Catskills in The Dead Don’t Die The world doesn’t really need yet one more zombie movie, does it? A new spinoff of The Walking Dead has reportedly just been greenlit, and as of this writing, the Army of the Dead is about to be unleashed upon Westeros in the final season of Game of Thrones.

Surely we’ve reached, and passed, the oversaturation point.

But wait…what about a funny zombie movie directed by indie icon Jim Jarmusch, shot right in the Catskills, starring “the greatest zombie cast ever disassembled” – would that get you into a cinema this June? Jarmusch has already demonstrated that his trademark dry, deadpan humor can work very well in a horror genre, with his 2013 vampire opus Only Lovers Left Alive (see our Almanac Weekly review here: https:// bit.ly/2InfewU). And he has an amazing stable of actors eager to work with him over and over again.

Here’s the cast lined up for Jarmusch’s soon-to-be-released The Dead Don’t Die: Adam Driver (star of his most recent fiction feature, Paterson), Bill Murray,

Life of Brian, Monty Python’s other cinematic masterpiece, is turning 40, and the Bardavon in Poughkeepsie will be one of 400 theaters internationally to honor the occasion with a screening of the film on April 18. While Python’s lone American, animator Terry Gilliam, would go on to become a historically significant film director (Brazil alone would have secured that), Brian was directed by the ensemble’s other Terry: Terry Jones, a Chaucerian scholar and perhaps the most literate of this hyperliterate crew. Infamous at first for its lampooning of Biblical mythology, Life of Brian now seems every bit as much a satire of the Hollywood tradition of overblown Biblical epics. Admission to this special anniversary screening costs $10.

ALWAYS READY SHINE AUTOMOTIVE RESTORATION AND DETAIL CO.

Animal Shelter. LOLA; 12-year plus calico cat girl. Her mom passed away suddenly & doesn’t understand why her life has been turned upside down- she’s now in a cage in a shelter. She’s a shy cat girl who needs someone who will love and care for her just like her mama did. NACHO, DORITO and OJ; 6-month old orange kitten boys. What’s better than loving 1 orange kitten boy? Loving 2 orange kitten boys! LAURA; orange and white 10-month old teenage kitten girl, shy & very, very sweet. TIGER; very sweet 6-year old brown tabby cat girl who’d make a perfect addition to your loving family. HOT SHOT; laid back 1-year old gray & white cat boy who likes to watch the world go by. Very, very sweet. LILY; 8-year old cat girl came in naked. She lost most of her fur due to a flea allergy. Hair has mostly grown back. Very sweet. Loves to cuddle. No other pets, please. ATHENA; 2-3 year old sweet, independent, affectionate, opinionated black & white cat girl. She was a wonderful mom & her kittens were all adopted. Now it’s her turn to be loved. LEXI; beautiful tiger cat girl w/a heart of gold! Lexi was adopted, but was bullied by the resident cat, and now finds herself back at the shelter. If you can give this 3-year old sweetheart the quiet, loving home she needs, she will thank you every day! DORIAN; shy, spayed, 2-3 year old female cat who just needs a quiet house to decompress & be loved. Dorian was a lonesome stray. CHARLOTTE; 6-7 yrs old. She was an owner surrender. Low income and they moved out of a bad situation into a rent assisted place. They had no choice. Charlotte is very stressed at the shelter (on meds and calming supplements but she’s still chewing on herself and the walls..turning in circles holding her tail).

Pitty mix. Sweet. Loves people. No other pets, please. SABRINA; 4-year old Hound mix girl. She’s very sweet & affectionate.

Please- no cats. Dogs- males only & need a “meet & greet”. DEXTER; 8-year old Pit mix, is so stressed at the shelter. His caregivers, whom he loved dearly, surrendered him. If you’d like to adopt an older dog whose heart is broken, please visit Dexter at the shelter. Dexter needs to be your one and only; please- no children or other pets.

Dexter wants to love again and to be loved.

Please visit The Town of Saugerties Animal Shelter, 1765 Route 212 (behind the transfer station) to meet these beautiful beings or call (845)679-0339 to answer any questions you may have. Adopt an animal. They will thank you every day.
