Take your pick Woodstock Invitational Luthiers’ Showcase this weekend
T
he seventh annual Woodstock Invitational Luthiers’ Showcase (and Tonewood Festival) returns to Woodstock’s Bearsville Theater with three days of high communing with the wood and wires of fine acoustic guitars – flat-
tops, archtops, manouche, resonators, hybrids – plus mandolins, lutes, ouds, ukuleles, banjos and stringed oddities. The event, taking place on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, October 23, 24 and 25, also includes much music – small wonder, much of it made on the extraordinary instruments that more than 50 artists and craftsmen and women have produced and are on display. Baker Rorick, the founder and producer of the weekend, calls it “an intimate gathering for the community of acoustic stringed-instrument builders, players, collectors and aficionados.” But the truth is that it can hardly be called that, these days, as the show itself has become known worldwide. “In the small world of manmade acoustic guitar festivals, this little Woodstock show has somehow
developed a reputation as a significant event,” says Rorick. “In the past year we developed cooperative associations with all the European festivals, with the Osaka festival. We schedule our events around each other...exchange ideas...” In the main theater at Bearsville (291 Tinker Street, Woodstock), the finery is displayed in rows:, dazzling exhibits from some of the finest builders of the day, from local Bruce Ackerman to archtop giants John Monteleone and Ken Parker; Paul Beard brings some of his incredible resonator guitars; Paul McCubbin displays; Woodstock luthiers Joe Veillette and Harvey Citron have entries, too. In the lounge area at Bearsville, there is a continuous concert (all included with the price of admission) with guitarists demonstrating the wares – but not just

There’s a new component, facilitated by grant money that the Festival has received from the Bluestein Family Foundation: free events, such as the screening of David Broza’s documentary East Jerusalem, West Jerusalem, about the making of the album (produced by Steve Earle) by Israeli and Palestinian musicians, recorded in Palestine, at 7 p.m. on Friday, October 23 at the Kleinert/James Center for the Arts at 34 Tinker Street in Woodstock. Sunday will offer a free concert and demonstration: “The Extended Family of Mexican Guitars: A Showcase of Mexican Folk Stringed Instruments,” live with two-time Grammy-nominated group the Sones de Mexico Ensemble (www. sonesdemexico.com). Frazzled with the non-stop details of
the preparation, Rorick nonetheless points out that the event – much as it has grown, now in its seventh year – is more about and for the community of guitarbuilders, who, he is fond of pointing out, “work in solitude all year” and finally get to come out, show their stuff and have a good hang. But that doesn’t stop the rest of the population who can come out and touch the artistry.

MUSIC Double Trouble Jazz Meets Classical with the lauded Dan Tepfer & Aaron Diehl at Bard
A
mong players, the jazz/ classical crossover typically flows in only one direction, from jazz toward classical. Jazz, like its older sibling concert music, requires extreme discipline and mastery from its players, and it is increasingly a grant-patronized conservatory art as well. The difference is that a jazz education includes the additional module of improvisation and a real-time, actionable command of harmony, for which a classical player would have to doublemajor in Composition and then loosen up with some drinks and funny cigarettes. But the performance standards
The young pianist Dan Tepfer has quietly positioned himself as a unique crossover figure. of serious music are so grueling, so microscopic, that it would be a mistake to assume that every fleet-fingered jazz cat is a candidate for classical virtuosity. In truth, almost none is. A handful of jazz players – really just a handful – have distinguished themselves as recognized interpreters of serious music: Keith Jarrett, the ECM softie whose crystalline, balanced tone and phrasing have made

On Friday, October 30 at Bard, the Fisher Center and the Catskill Jazz Factory will present the internationally decorated pianist and composer Dan Tepfer (who is also an advanced student of astrophysics, making him a Chomskyesque figure of multiple masteries) and Aaron Diehl, another accredited young jazz piano master (who also happens to be a licensed pilot), in “Double Trouble: Jazz Meets Classical.” In this exclusive, collaborative performance, Tepfer and Diehl perform a mash-up of J.

him a lucid interpreter of Bach and others; Wynton Marsalis, the Todd Marinovich of music, engineered from the DNA up for all of it, including the world’s most difficult trumpet concertos; and a few others. This handful of elite players tends to respect the wall between the worlds and the wardrobes; they are duplicitous moonlighters, dual identities with secret second families. But the young pianist Dan Tepfer has quietly positioned himself as a unique crossover figure. He has not yet donned the tails and declared an identity as a concert performer of classical repertoire. Instead, his crossover gesture is integrative and on jazz turf, a collision by design of the two arts: the dialectical Goldberg Variations/Variations, in which Tepfer performs Bach’s famous keyboard variations in sequence (quite credibly, according to ears more discriminating than mine), following each of Bach’s 30 miniatures with a piano improvisation on its themes. To see Tepfer perform his variations is to witness a subtle-but-profound mode and identity shift repeated 30 times. Following

each variation, Tepfer allows a breath pause, and his posture and body language morph visibly as he moves from the firm discipline of channeling Bach’s exacting counterpoint to the wild-mind receptivity of channeling…whatever demon it is that jazz solos come from. Typically, the strictures of Baroque harmony are the first thing to go in the improvs, but the counterpoint remains, comes loose in time and is taken to otherworldly places

KARL DENSON’S TINY UNIVERSE TO PERFORM PRINCE’S DIRTY MIND AT BEARSVILLE
S
axophonist Karl Denson’s take on jazz and fusion is hard and balls-out. Whether blowing on the Minimalist, metallic funk/core of New Ammo, the buttoned-down hard bop of Blackened Red Snapper and Baby Food or the dripping space groove of Lunar Orbit, Denson’s music is always forward and aggressive, with a mind toward your face. Denson came to fame as one the lead voices in Lenny Kravitz’s band when Kravitz was at his peak. He has seldom returned to that soul/rock style, but his tight, attack-mode playing and composing have remained his calling card. It should be fascinating to see what Denson and his cast of ßber-cats called Tiny Universe do with their cover-to-cover performance of Prince’s classic third record, 1980’s Dirty Mind, at the Bearsville Theater. In theory, Denson’s lean, muscular and forward approach to groove is a perfect fit for an unusual and insular pop record that went on to turn groove music on its head. Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe performs Prince’s Dirty Mind on Friday, October 30 at 9 p.m. at the Bearsville Theater. Tickets cost $30 and may be purchased at www.bearsvilletheater.com. The Bearsville Theater is located at 291 Tinker Street in Woodstock.

Georgia-bred, Brooklyn-based indie-rock songwriter Mackenzie Scott operates under the name Torres and specializes in a raw, confessional, ominous and quite rocking music that is overt in its debt to Polly Jean Harvey but gripping just the same. Torres’ sophomore effort Sprinter followed Scott’s stint opening for and recording with Sharon Van Etten. It was produced by P. J. Harvey alum Rob Ellis and features contributions from Portishead’s Adrian Utley: quite the advisory board for a disquietingly intimate, discomfort-zone songwriter such as Scott.

From the legendary hardcore band Bad Brains come bassist Daryl Jenifer and guitarist Gary “Doc Know” Miller; Jamaican-born singer and producer Ras T. Asheber provides vocals and the mysteriously described “ceremonials.” Drummer Zachary Alford has been Bowie’s drummer of choice for quite a while and has also famously worked with Springsteen and with the B-52s (including a memorable appearance in the “Love Shack” video). Keyboard whiz Jamie Saft is a fixture on the downtown experimental jazz and groove scene and often performs locally with his New Zion Trio. Output Agency, Ltd. and Roots Barn Productions present the Defiant Ones! at BSP in Kingston on Saturday, October 24 at 9 p.m. Tickets cost $12 in advance and $15 on the day of the show. They can be purchased locally at Outdated and Rocket Number Nine in Kingston, Jack’s Rhythms in New Paltz, Darkside Records in Poughkeepsie and the Woodstock Music Shop. BSP is located at 323 Wall

Bobby Previte Quartet to play Quinn’s in Beacon
T
he great style-hopping ensembles and reference-mixologists of experimental rock and jazz – Naked City, Mr. Bungle, Zappa and their progeny – tend to be intentionally flitty and skittish, fevered in the event-tempo of their meme shifts and cultural recombinations, driven by hyper-detailed compositional intelligence, acolytes of the great Looney Tunes house composer Carl Stalling. Much of this music makes a cognitive case that ADHD is not a deficiency at all, but rather an alternative and often-morerelevant mode of connection and awareness. No so the venerable New York drummer, composer and bandleader Bobby Previte. On paper, Previte might be perceived as an intellectually grounded style-collider of a New York build; but his is not the art of postmodern pastiche, assimilation-recombination, cutand-paste and the many editorial operations of the meatware sampler. His groove appropriations are deep but not reverent, and the cultural costuming, where it exists at all, is light and non-binding. Spend a couple of afternoons wading through his bottomless catalogue and you will quickly perceive an essential, privileged Previteness to everything that he does. The essence of Previteness is no mystery. There are some solid ground rules to this music. First, ensemble improvisation (not soloing) is the norm, the baseline, the default. Previte’s compositions are focused-but-loose-fitting vehicles for the internal action of his various groups of top-tier, New York-style squawkers (which often include such local presences as slide trumpeter Steven Bernstein and keyboardist Jamie Saft). He entrusts many of the traditional duties of the composer to the empathic intelligence of the ensemble. Even on the dystopian, neo-blues rock record Coalition of the Willing, Previte keeps the compositional girding pretty lightweight, and the unwavering stylistic coherence of the record has more to do with the collective commitment of the players to the brutal riffage of the concept. It takes real discipline and oversight, transmitted from the drum chair, to balance form and permission as masterfully as Previte does. So it goes on the luminous noir of Set the Alarm for Monday, the skronky funk of Counterclockwise and the Minimalist soundscaping of Terminals. Deep trust in the players to bring his seeds to flowering: That might be the credo of Previte-the-composer. Of course, this leads to a lot of music that you will perceive as “free,” but not random; Previte’s compositional seeds are unfailingly cool, deep and worth the dwelling attention of his sympathetic ensembles. As big a name as there is in this genre, Hudson resident Bobby Previte brings the current Bobby Previte Quartet to Quinn’s in Beacon on Friday, October 30. Onboard for the date are Previte, violinist/guitarist Jonathan Talbott, keyboardist Tyler Wood and electric bassist Terence Murren. There is no cover charge, but generous donation is encouraged. Quinn’s is located at 330 Main Street in Beacon. For more information, call (845) 202-7447 of find Quinn’s on Facebook. – John Burdick

is our sister world, Venus, the nearest planet. The other is giant Jupiter. This weekend they have their grand conjunction. They’ll be splendidly close together Saturday, Sunday and Monday mornings. Very cool and striking. Just below them, look for a much-less-brilliant orange “star,” and this is Mars. It looks downright dim compared to those others. Mars is in the spotlight these days, thanks to the hit Matt Damon movie. And there it is in fact, rather than fiction. This planet conjunction just won’t quit, which is very unusual. And thanks to the ever-earlier sunrises, this predawn event doesn’t mean 4 a.m., which would have been the case three months ago. Now, in late October, lots of folks are already up. The ancient Greeks, the Maya, the desert-dwelling Arab observers all would have made this “Topic A” at the office water cooler. It would be shame not to simply look out the window, in the direction of the impending sunrise. – Bob Berman

Seems like only yesterday that the Kaatsbaan International Dance Center was the new kid on the midHudson cultural scene. But the former farmstead in Tivoli has since become an anchor institution with a worldclass reputation, and is now celebrating its 25th anniversary! Fittingly, Kaatsbaan’s annual Gala, coming on Saturday, November 14, will
boast a stellar lineup of performers. Actress Mary Stuart Masterson and American Ballet Theatre (ABT) director Kevin McKenzie will serve as hosts, and ABT dancers will supply much of the evening’s entertainment: Stella Abrera and Sterling Baca will perform the “White Swan Pas de Deux” and Gillian Murphy (above) and Thomas Forster the “Black Swan Pas de Deux,” both from Tchaikovsky’s classic Swan Lake. In addition, the ABT Studio Company will present the world premiere of a new dance piece choreographed by George Williamson. Other big-name entities from the world of dance will be represented as well: Teresa Reichlen and Ask La Cour of the New York City Ballet will perform Balanchine’s Agon. And the Martha Graham Dance Company’s Miki Orihara will perform Graham’s 1932 solo Satyric Festival Song. The festivities begin with a 4 p.m. reception, followed by the all-star Gala performance showcase at 5:30. An

ntimatter? The strange effect that observers have on their experiments? The non-reality of time? Mind-stretching topics are fun. But sometimes the actual sky is so compelling, we’re forced simply to focus on what’s over our heads. The action stays glued to the morning sky. We’re talking 6 to 6:45 a.m. Normally, planet conjunctions happen for one or two days, and then the heavens move on; not now. Bright and eye-catching, these in-your-face planet configurations keep lighting up the predawn theater like a hit Broadway play. Mercury has been putting on its best show of 2015, and this weekend marks the final curtain. For this tiny charbroiled world alone, you need a clear view nearly all the way down to the eastern horizon. If you have that, then look between 6:30 and 6:45 a.m. The lowest bright “star” is Mercury.

HISTORY Barons of the Rondout Friends of Historic Kingston to launch The Street that Built a City, a new book by Lowell Thing
L
owell Thing’s The Street that Built a City: McEntee’s Chestnut Street, Kingston and the Rise of New York, just published by Black Dome Press, was more than 30 years in the making. Its roots go back to 1972, when Thing – a technical writer for IBM who had previously worked in broadcasting in New York City – and his wife, Suzanne, bought a capacious 1898 Colonial Revival house on Kingston’s West Chestnut Street. In 1985, Thing was instrumental in creating the West Chestnut Street Historic District, but his interest went beyond simply preserving the streetscape of fine homes: While sitting on his front porch one day, he wondered who had lived in the bluestone mansion, nestled under 100-foot-tall spruce trees, across the street and what life had been like on the street 100 years before. When he conducted his first interview in the 1980s, Thing could not have imagined the rich material that he would eventually unearth from far-flung descendants and archives in distant cities, but he nonetheless, from the beginning, “intended to write a comprehensive history of this street.” Indeed, West Chestnut was an excellent choice for such a venture, given that it was once home to the Rondout’s captains of industry. In the second half of the 19th century, if you had made it in the Rondout – the terminus of the D & H Canal and a bustling port from which millions of tons of coal, bluestone, cement, bricks and other raw materials were shipped down the Hudson River – you likely built a spacious Italianate-style house of brick on West Chestnut Street. The street’s residents included the most powerful man in Kingston, if not Ulster County: Samuel Coykendall, sonin-law of Thomas Cornell, who had controlled the towing operations of coal on the D & H Canal and Hudson River and owned banks, a newspaper, railroads and ice, cement and bluestone businesses. Coykendall inherited Cornell’s empire and very capably managed it. In 1894 he built a fortresslike mansion of stone and red brick, designed by Calvert Vaux, on the highest spot on the fledgling street, residing there until his death in 1913. Other 19th-century and early-20th-century residents included a leather tanner, stage operator, patent medicine manufacturer, ironworks owner, steamboat captain, coal company president, newspaper publisher,

railroad and trolley superintendent, cigar manufacturer, boatbuilder and icehouse owner, mayor and numerous lawyers and doctors. Brick manufacture was huge in the area, so no surprise that West Chestnut Street was home to seven brickyard owners. Thing takes us on a timetravel expedition of the stree t through many eras, including the first houses that were built on lots laid out by the McEntee family in the post-Civil War years; the laying out of more lots and construction of more houses through 1913; the postWorld War II arrival of several large, prosperous Irish Catholic families, which livened up a street mostly inhabited by elderly widows; and the construction of ranch houses in the 1950s on the site of the Coykendall mansion, by which time the tradition of live-in servants was a distant memory. He leaves no stone unturned, describing the architectural styles that came and went over the decades, the types of transport, the development of gas and electric,

sanitation systems, the fabulous gardens that once graced the southern, river-facing slope of the hill and recreational activities, including golf, tennis and Coykendall’s toboggan slide. But The Street that Built a City is more than just about a street: Thing has also written a fascinating history of the McEntee family, with separate chapters on James McEntee, the street founder, who bought 52 acres of woodlot on the hill above the Rondout in 1848, built his homestead and laid out 58 lots; and his son, Jervis, a member of
the Hudson River School whose paintings are featured in this year’s exhibition at the Friends of Historic Kingston gallery (curated by Thing), as well as a larger solo show at the Samuel Dorsky Museum at SUNY-New Paltz. James McEntee worked on the D & H Canal and in the process discovered the local limestone that became the basis of a flourishing cement industry. He bought a coal mine in Pennsylvania, helped build a turnpike of planks and a steamboat wharf at West Point, surveyed for a railroad and

Vaux had designed a charming Gothicstyle studio for Jervis, including kitchen and sleeping facilities, adjacent to the homestead house, which the couple occupied in the warm-weather months. That Thing was able to write about the studio and Jervis’ life in such rich detail is a tribute to his discovery of McEntee’s journal in the archives of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution during the course of his research. Its last entry, made in 1890, helped solve the mystery of the studio, which had seemingly vanished. The journal noted the purchase of the studio by Girard McEntee, Jervis’ younger brother, from Samuel Coykendall. Girard planned to move the building and attach it to his house, located across the street. The current owners of Girard’s house are doing an ambitious, inspiring renovation, and after being led through some rooms and up some steps, one enters Jervis’ second-floor studio, its large windows and beautiful green ceramic tiles surrounding the fireplace intact. Thanks to his research on Geneology.com, which enabled him to track down various McEntee descendants, Thing made other discoveries: He located a painting by Jervis of the homestead house and found rare photographs of its interior that a descendant from Mississippi had preserved. He also discovered a 1903 inventory of the house’s contents in the Ulster County Courthouse archives. After so much in-depth research, “You begin to feel like you’re living in several different times,” Thing said one recent morning as we left his house and walked up the street. Much has survived, including the former Henry Samson bluestone mansion, built in the late 1850s, at 32 West Chestnut; Cloverly, the soaring, majestic Colonial Revival pile that signaled a new architectural era when it replaced an earlier house in the 1890s; and the formal, Classical-style mansion of Edward Coykendall, Samuel’s son, now Eleanor Hutton Washburn in her garden with unidentified children and dog, 1917.

owned the Mansion House Hotel on the Rondout waterfront before building his homestead, where he planted vegetable
gardens and an orchard and kept a few cows. One of his daughters, Sarah, was a practicing doctor and was the last person
to live in the homestead before Coykendall – who had bought the property and erected his mansion on it – tore it down. If James’s story is about how an enterprising, self-made engineer could prosper in a country that was establishing transport routes from scratch, that of Jervis McEntee tells how an artist belonging to the nation’s first school of landscape painting established himself. (The book includes numerous reproductions of Jervis McEntee’s paintings.) Jervis and his wife, Gertrude, who resided in an apartment attached to Jervis’ New York City studio in the winter, were at the center of the literary and artistic scene that brought a new sophistication to Gotham in the late 1850s and 1860s. Their many friends included Calvert Vaux, who was to co-design Central Park (and was Jervis’ brother-in-law, having married his sister), fellow painters Frederic Church, Eastman Johnson and Sanford Gifford and the celebrated actor Edwin Booth (brother of Lincoln assassin John Wilkes Booth).
the centerpiece of an apartment complex. In the front yard of a Modernist 1950s home, Thing points to a low bluestone curb, punctuated by two oblong stones, and a section of dressed bluestone pavement interrupting the sidewalk: the remains of the carriage drive and entrance to Samuel Coykendall’s mansion. We wandered over to the grounds of the former Black Lion Inn, destroyed by fire in 2003, and walked down some bluestone steps in the overgrown yard to what was once the former “secret garden” of Alberta Schoonmaker. “I know with even more changes this will gradually become something else,” Thing said. Fortunately, before traces of the street’s storied past are further obliterated, “We managed to capture some of what it was.” – Lynn Woods The Street that Built a City book-signing/ talk with Lowell Thing, Saturday, October 31, 1 p.m., Friends of Historic Kingston, Main/Wall Streets, Kingston.

STAGE Sinisterly savory Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd at Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck
A
ccording to a friend who grew up in London and Coventry during the Blitz, little English children used to be told that if they misbehaved, Sweeney Todd the Barber would come and get them. Whether this classic bogeyman is based on a real historical criminal, or simply a folktale evolving out of the fact that barbers and surgeons in old Europe were often the same person, remains a matter of scholarly debate. We do know that the earliest literary Sweeney Todd appeared in a penny dreadful of disputed authorship titled The String of Pearls, published as a serial in 1846/47, but there are hints that the basic story may have been kicking around since 14th-century France. Whatever their origins, the characters of the vengeful barber who murders select customers and the pie-shop-owner who boosts business by disposing of the human remains have long exerted a grip on the popular imagination. The first stage interpretation followed publication of The String of Pearls within a year and a silent

film version appeared in 1926. Sweeney Todd inspired a comic song that became a staple of the English music hall circuit, and there has even been a ballet version. But most folks know the story nowadays from what is arguably Stephen Sondheim’s most musically ambitious stagework: 1979’s multi-Tony-winning Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, which starred Angela Lansbury and Len Cariou in its critically acclaimed original Broadway run. Sondheim’s version of Sweeney Todd, with book by Hugh Wheeler, is operatic in scale, laden with tragic, passionate melodrama, its generous helpings of black humor alternating with moments of sweet lyricism. The songs are simply

stunning; and if the only version that you’ve seen is Tim Burton’s 2007 movie with Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter as Sweeney and Mrs. Lovett, you haven’t heard the half of it – including the show’s ominous, oft-repeated, Dies Irae-based unifying theme, “The Ballad of Sweeney Todd.â€? That gap can be rectified over the next four weekends, as the Center for Performing Arts in Rhinebeck hosts Up in One Productions’ latest offering: Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, produced by Diana di Grandi and directed and choreographed by Kevin Archambault. The cast includes Monte Stone as Sweeney Todd, Victoria Howland as Mrs. Lovett, Richard Prouse as Judge Turpin, Harry Forman as Anthony, Alexandra Haines as Johanna and Amy Gustin as Lucy. Performances begin at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and at 3 p.m. on Sundays from October 23 through November 15. Tickets cost $27 general admission, $25 for seniors and children under age 12. Parents take warning: Though the stage gore probably won’t be quite as realistic as the nightmarish charnelhouse special effects of the movie, Sweeney Todd is decidedly not a kid-friendly play. But if your teens have a strong stomach for horror flicks, this may be a good opportunity for a more serious introduction to the Grand Guignol theatrical tradition.

Faeries fatale Actors & Writers debut residency at Unison in New Paltz with Down the Rushy Glen this Saturday
A
dmirers of the Unison Arts and Learning Center have recently seen many reasons to feel heartened about the venerable venue’s prospects for staying on – reenergized with new blood on the Board of Directors, renovations in progress and some debt paid down – in its longtime location at 68 Mountain Rest Road west of New Paltz. While its fate remained in doubt last fall and winter, Unison’s former resident theatrical troupe, the Mohonk Mountain Stage Company, vacated in favor of a new home base at the Woodland Pond on the other side of town. Stepping into the void is another theater entity with deep roots in Ulster County: Actors & Writers, now taking up residency at Unison following a busy summer of live readings at the Maverick in Woodstock. Now celebrating their 25th anniversary season, Actors & Writers launch their first season as playmakers-in-residence at Unison this Saturday with a “supernatural whodunit” set in the eerie Yorkshire Dales of England in 1949. Authored by member Katherine Burger, Down the Rushy Glen takes its title from “The Fairies,” a 19th-century poem by William Allingham, which alludes to a lass named Bridget being kidnapped by the Wee Folk and held prisoner at the bottom of a lake. Whether faeries or someone more corporeal are to blame for the disappearance of a 13-year-old girl is the psychological thriller’s chilling premise. Whether your enjoyment of the Halloween season hinges more on its Pagan roots in a twilight realm where the veil between worlds is thinner than usual, or on more contemporary wallows in gore pursued by chainsawwielding cinema villains, Down the Rushy Glen sounds like a pleasurable way to raise some goosebumps this weekend. The cast includes Sarah Chodoff, Brian Macready, Mark St. Germain, Nicole Quinn, Dannah Chaifetz, Shelley Wyant, Mary Gallagher, Carey Harrison, Michael Hunold, Zoe Harvey and Jake Heenan. The show begins at 8 p.m. on October 24, with admission by a suggested donation at the door of $10 (give more if you can and help Unison afford to install a water treatment system or pave its parking lot).

Kingston Kiwanis Kapers this weekend The annual Kingston Kiwanis Kapers, to be presented at the J. Watson Bailey Middle School this Thursday through Saturday, has not only become the place to see local politicos take gentle digs at each other and themselves, but has also helped raise more than $800,000 in Kiwanis scholarships for local high school students as a result of the popular fun. The idea is to set a broad palette for parody and theatrical funmaking that has seen county sheriffs, mayors and even the county executive on stage drawing laughs. Past Kapers have seen the likes of The Wizard of Oz, Star Wars and The Secret Garden used as the glue to hold each evening of skits held together. This time around, Schtick at Nite allows writer/ directors Steve Klein and Matt Hall to play off scenes from 1970s and 1980s television classics – which, given the current political climate in and around Kingston, should make for a real blast of an evening. – Paul Smart Schtick at Nite, 2015 Kingston Kiwanis Kapers, Thursday-Saturday, October 22-24, 7:30 p.m., Saturday, October 24,

Mount Tremper Arts continues to generate excitement as a sort of northern outpost of the Brooklyn/ downtown Manhattan creative scene
where the lines separating music from theater from dance et cetera grow increasingly blurred and irrelevant. Cutting-edge performance artists come here for residencies to hone their work-in-progress, and local folks can usually get glimpse or two. If you relish opportunities to view a stagework while it’s still in rehearsal, you’re in for a treat this Saturday evening, when Mount Tremper Arts hosts an Open Studio performance of selections from artist/writer/comedian Erin Markey’s original musical A Ride on the Irish Cream, accompanied by a live band. Scheduled for a full premiere in January at the Abrons Arts Center at Manhattan’s Henry Street Settlement, followed by a show at Joe’s Pub at the Public Theater (where Markey is a regular), A Ride on the Irish Cream is described as “a darkly psychedelic story with songs set in a fantastical Michigan backyard on a cold blue river,” relating “the thrills and terrors of a relationship between Reagan (Erin Markey), a vainglorious self-made princess, and Irish Cream (Becca Blackwell), her family’s pontoon boat/horse. They are in love, but when their relationship is tested by waterfalls, masculinity, dust ruffles, sex for money, severe T-storms, Moms and a fatally jealous best friend, the only way to stay together is to remember all the parts of

There are distinct layers of local theater. There are big Broadwaylike traveling shows and smaller Broadway-aspiring ensembles. There are hyperlocal dramatic forces geared at achieving something original and fringe, who look to past local theater triumphs from earlier eras as a guide. There are student productions, in and out of schools (and with adults instead of youngsters in many cases). And finally – most exultantly for many – there is the world of community theater, where part of the joy of a production is seeing one’s neighbors onstage and not just on Main Street or shopping in the next aisle. The Shandaken Theatrical Society, with its own theater space in Phoenicia, is one of the leaders of the latter movement, although it has also spent decades now pushing the drama buttons in increasingly edgy ways as well. It has just announced its new season, which will celebrate its 40th year as well as a new second stage for special readings of new or more inventive works. It kicks off this Friday with a new production of the ingenious musical The Last Five Years, about a young couple reliving both their coming together and parting, that recently played Shadowland in Ellenville and runs over the next three weekends. Things will then continue with a radio-play version of the holiday classic It’s a Wonderful Life, a springtime production of the award-winning crime drama Stop Kiss and then the iconic Oklahoma! next summer. Second-stage productions and other special events will include a reading of the new play Nothing Lasts Forever Anymore by Michael Lederer on November 21, the big annual (and free) STS annual Christmas Show on the morning of December 19 and then productions of vintage comedies from radio’s heyday, a first reading of an unproduced screenplay about the death of Walt Disney by Obie Award-winner Lucas Hnath and four short plays by Frost, Strindberg, Dell and Burton in the New Year. – Paul Smart The Last Five Years, October 23-Novem-

ROCK & SNOW IN NEW PALTZ MARKS 80 YEARS OF GUNKS CLIMBING WITH SLIDESHOW
N
ew Paltz means many things to many people, but among rock climbers, it’s a bucket-list destination nearly as compulsory as completing the Hajj is in the lifetime of a devout adherent of Islam. Rockclimbing.com categorizes the “Quantity of Climbs” in the Gunks simply as “Lifetime,” with 780 separate climbing routes named and rated at last count. Of these, the oldest documented climb took place at the site known today, appropriately enough, as the Old Route at Millbrook; and that happened 80 years ago. Climbers from near and far will be converging this Saturday evening at the outdoor supply retailer Rock and Snow to celebrate the 80th anniversary of climbing in the Gunks with a historical slideshow of the favorite local sport. This illustrated survey of Shawangunk climbing from the 1930s to today will be presented by Whitney Boland, a writer and climber based in Gardiner who specializes in marketing content for the outdoor industry. She has been a contributing editor with Rock and Ice magazine since 2005, and she’s the Rock and Snow website’s blogger-in-residence. The 80th Anniversary of Climbing in the Shawangunks Slideshow with Whitney Boland begins at 8 p.m. on Saturday, October 24 at Rock and Snow, located at 44 Main Street in New Paltz. Admission is free.

Joyce Carol Oates premieres new short story at Bard
Joyce Carol Oates, who speaks at Bard College on Monday, October 26, spent her college years “writing novel after novel and always cheerfully throwing them out when I finished.” She works on what have become over 40 well-received novels and countless
other books of short stories and nonfiction – which have together won her most of the top literary prizes of her lifetime – in longhand, mornings and nights. And she shakes her head at those who complain about her ceaseless productivity. As she puts it, “I work hard and long, and as the hours roll by I seem to create more than I anticipate; more, certainly, than the literary world allows for a ‘serious’ write.’ Yet I have more stories to tell, and more novels.” She has been teaching at Princeton University for years and will be reading Monday from “Walking Wounded,” a new, unpublished story commissioned especially for its world premiere at this event, where she will be introduced by novelist and Bard literature professor Bradford Morrow as part of his Innovative Contemporary Fiction Reading Series. – Paul Smart Joyce Carol Oates reading, Monday, October 26, 3 p.m., free, Olin Hall, Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson; (845) 758-7054, www.bard.edu.

rect  patronage of commissions or, as has been the wont in more recent years, collecting art. This Sunday afternoon, October 25, the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art at SUNY-New Paltz will be presenting “A Modern Art Dealer and Her Artist Friends: Betty Parsons, Helène Aylon and Saul Steinbergâ€? with artist Helène Aylon, a former associate of the great gallerist/ collector, and SUNY-New Paltz professor Reva Wolf. Parsons (1900-1982) visited the Armory Show when still a girl and later became one of the first gallerists to collect and push Abstract Expressionist painters. She is known for her close relationships with artists, including Saul Steinberg and Aylon, who will play audio clips from a 1977 interview that she did with Parsons. Wolf will use the talk to get under the surface of art-world relationships and funding. – Paul Smart

ack in May, the Hudson River School of painting went 21st-century and bicoastal with a landmark collaborative exhibition titled “River Crossings: Contemporary Art Comes Home,� jointly hosted by the Thomas Cole National Historic Site in Catskill and Olana State Historic Site on the outskirts of Hudson. The exhibition, showcasing top artists of today whose work takes inspiration from the Valley’s seminal 19th-century naturebased art movement, got rave notices and was just featured last weekend on CBS Sunday Morning. But time is running out to catch this terrific exhibit, if you haven’t yet: “River Crossings� closes on November 1. To accommodate the crowds expected during the popular show’s last couple of weeks, the two venues’ usual six-day schedule has been expanded to include Mondays. So by the time you read this, you’ll have one extra day – Monday, October 26 – to cross this off your culture-vulture hit list. The Cole site’s executive director, Betsy Jacks, notes that “the next two weeks are our busiest time of the year,� and Sean Sawyer, president of the Olana Partnership, calls the show “a unique opportunity to see this grouping of internationally renowned contemporary artists in the context of two of America’s most significant historic artists’ homes.� Curated by Stephen Hannock and Jason Rosenfeld, PhD, “River Crossings� includes works by Romare Bearden, Elijah Burgher, Chuck Close, Will Cotton, Gregory Crewdson, Lynn Davis, Jerry Gretzinger, Don Gummer, Duncan Hannah, Stephen Hannock, Valerie Hegarty, Angie Keefer with Kara Hamilton and Kianja Strobert, Charles LeDray, Maya Lin, Frank Moore, Elizabeth Murray, Rashaad Newsome, Thomas Nozkowski, Stephen Petegorsky, Martin Puryear, Cindy Sherman, Sienna Shields, Kiki Smith, Joel Sternfeld, Letha Wilson and Elyn Zimmerman, in addition to selected complementary work by Thomas Cole and Frederic Church from the permanent collections.

Reformed Church of Shawangunk hosts Fall Festival this Saturday
The congregation that gathers in the Reformed Church of Shawangunk in Wallkill dates back 279 years. That’s when the baptisms of five “Schavegonk” children were recorded: a reference found in the Old Dutch Church in Kingston, where early Dutch, French Huguenot and German settlers first sought pastoral care.

the next 20 years, these founding members had pledged enough money and labor to realize the building of their own church, the structure that now stands on Hoagerburgh Road. Painter Edward Lamson Henry rendered the church on canvas a century later (see above), in illustrations for a trilogy written by Grace Livingston Hill. And through the decades, numerous additions and restorations have been mounted to maintain the structure. As an architecturally beautiful and historically significant building and grounds (a cemetery in the churchyard has tombstones dating from 1752, some holding the remains of men in the congregation who fought in the Revolutionary War), the Reformed Church is a local treasure. It also holds a fun and fabulously refreshing Fall Festival to gather people together for entertainment and a bit of fundraising. This Saturday, families are invited to enjoy a late afternoon of Halloween stories, crafts, pumpkinpainting, face-painting, food to purchase prepared and sold by local Girl Scouts and lots of other games and activities for the kids. The Women’s Fellowship is selling cutlery – paring knives, vegetable peelers et cetera – and homemade baked items. A display of soaps, crocheted items and other handmade products will be for sale. Musical entertainment will be provided by Gentle Whisper, Katie Long and the Bunker Boys. The evening will end with hayrides and a bonfire with s’mores: a perfect finish for an autumn day. Check it out. – Ann Hutton

Miller Craft Fair returns to Lake Katrine this Saturday
ctober 24 is United Nations Day, the anniversary of the international diplomacy organization’s founding. And this year marks the 70th anniversary of this body, conceived during World War II by Franklin D. Roosevelt and shepherded in its early years by Eleanor Roosevelt, which strives to mediate disputes and foster human rights around the globe – and occasionally even succeeds. The Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum is commemorating this milestone with three events this weekend. The original 1945 Charter of the United Nations will go and display at the Roosevelt Library, on loan from the National Archives in Washington, DC and viewable by regular museum admission through November 23. On Saturday evening, October 24, the Roosevelt Library building will be illuminated in blue light as part of the international “Turn the World UN Blue” initiative. Citizens are invited to share their “Turn the World UN Blue” images on social media using the hashtag #UN70. The centerpiece of the celebration is the Library’s annual fall public forum, beginning at 3 p.m. on Saturday in the Henry A. Wallace Center. “The Roosevelts’ United Nations: Then & Now” will explore the creation and history of the UN, its successes and failures and ways in which it may best face the challenges of tomorrow. The panel of experts leading the discussion will include Stephen C. Schlesinger, Century Foundation fellow and author of Act of Creation: The Founding of the United Nations, and Gillian Sorensen, senior advisor and national advocate for the United Nations Foundation and assistant secretary-general for external relations at the UN from 1997 to 2003. Linda Fasulo, UN correspondent for NPR News and author of An Insider’s Guide to the UN, will be the moderator. Admission to the forum is free, but preregistration is required; call (845) 4867745 to register. The Home of Franklin D. Roosevelt Historic Site is located at 4097 Albany Post Road (Route 9) in Hyde Park. For more information, visit www.fdrlibrary.marist.edu/publicprograms/calendar.html. – Frances Marion Platt

WALKWAY TO PARIS CLIMATE ACTION GATHERING THIS FRIDAY ON WALKWAY
W
ho doesn’t want to walk to Paris – or at least that better world that could emerge from the long-awaited climate talks beginning there on November 30? This Friday afternoon, a number of regional environmental organizations are hosting what’s promised to be a major climate rally at the center of the dramatic Walkway over the Hudson. On hand will be variety of energetic speakers, bus loads of students from area colleges and other participants carrying banners and flags from more than 100 countries already pledged to sign whatever treaty comes out of the Paris talks, a brass band and other musicians, over 30 “rolling conversation” elements of a classic teach-in and plenty of opportunities to sign petitions and letters to world leaders, including President Obama. In addition to representatives from such sponsoring organizations as the New Paltz Climate Action Coalition, Catskill Mountainkeeper, Riverkeeper, the Coalition against Pilgrim Pipeline, Citizens for Local Power, Protect Orange County and many more, presenters will range from physics professors to beekeepers, from elected officials to grassroots advocates, from trash wonks to investment experts pressing for fossil fuel divestiture. It runs from 1 to 5 p.m., with center-stage activities at the middle of the Walkway beginning at 3 p.m. The 2015 United Nations Climate Change Conference will be held in Paris from November 30 to December 11. It will be the 21st yearly session of the Conference of the Parties to the 1992 U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the eleventh session of the Meeting of the Parties to the 1997 Kyoto Protocol. The objective of the conference is to achieve a legally binding and universal agreement from all nations of the world to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in order to limit the global temperature to 2 °C above pre-industrial levels. – Paul Smart Walkway to Paris: Major Climate Action.

Here’s a terrific event for folks with young kids experiencing trickor-treating for the first time, or giving a costume a test run, or insurance if your kid gets sick on Halloween this year, or offering an indoor trick-ortreat option in the event of forecast inclement weather on Halloween itself: the annual Community Trick-orTreat at SUNY-New Paltz. On Sunday, October 25 from 3 to 5 p.m., families and children aged 12 and under are invited to any of the residence halls for Halloween activities and trick-ortreating. My kids love this event and look forward to it every year. Pro tip: I encourage you to arrive as close to 3 p.m. as possible, because (no names) the candy inventories traditionally seem to diminish rapidly in some of the dorms well before 5 p.m. Parking is available in the Haggerty Administration Building’s Lot #15 on Route 32 and the Route 32 Lot #28.

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK
Putting the beds to bed Now’s the time to clean up garden debris before the snow falls
O
stensibly, I’m clearing away old plant debris from the vegetable and flower gardens to spare next year’s garden a full onslaught of overwintering disease and insect pests, and so that, come spring, the soil is ready and waiting for seeds and transplants. I’ll admit it, though: I like the garden looking neat going into late autumn. As Charles Dudley Warner wrote in his book My Summer in the Garden (1889), “The closing
scenes need not be funereal.” As of this writing, frost has not yet struck; as of your reading, it probably will have. Following that event, I will remove all dead plants. I’ll grasp the tops of smaller plants, such as marigolds and basil, give them a twist to sever the smaller roots, then lift and toss the plant into a waiting garden cart. If I tried to do that with old pepper, tomato or okra plants, they would laugh at me. I lop off the bulk of their tops, then cut around the plant

with a hori-hori knife so that I can lift the remaining stem and main roots out of the ground. In either case, my goal is to remove everything but the smaller roots. Left in place, they’ ll rot to add organic matter to the soil, leaving behind channels to let air, water and creatures move through the ground. Even now, before frost, cleanup is well underway. Tomatoes are spent; I cleaned them up yesterday. Beans are spent; I’ll clear them away today. Leaving bean roots in the soil is like sprinkling organic

All that stuff that I am clearing out of the garden is going right into the compost pile. Yes, everything! I’m occasionally asked if I put leaves and stems that are infected or infested with blight, aphids or other pests into my compost pile. Yes! Everything goes into the pile. I contend that if you looked closely enough (perhaps needing a microscope)

More than just looking neat, the cleaned-up garden is – to my eye – ornamental. Think of the calm beauty of Zen gardens, some of them little more than boulders and raked gravel. Mine is wood chips (in paths) and raked soil. Well, not really raked soil. Bare soil looks ugly to me because I know it’s too exposed to rain and wind. So as soon as I’ve cleared a bed, I immediately put a blanket on it. Before the end of September, that blanket was oat seed topped with an inch of compost. Those beds are now lush strips of green. Post-September beds get blanketed with just an inch of compost. Its roughness helps protect the surface, and next spring I can sow seeds or plug transplants right into it. That much compost is all the nourishment that plants will need for the whole growing season next year. And then there are the beds still green with carrots, turnips, endive, lettuce, kale and other cold-hardy plants. I’ll dig the root crops, for storage, at my leisure. The others we will eat, also at our leisure.

ALMANAC WEEKLY
at almost any leaf, stem, fruit or root, you’d probably find some evidence of a “bad guy” on it. No matter: The combination of time and temperature within any compost pile does them in. This time of year, piles build rapidly. By paying attention to water and air within the pile as well as the balance of highnitrogen materials (manures and lush greenery such as vegetable plants and young weeds) and high-carbon materials (old, browning plants, wood chips, autumn leaves), I’m able to get my compost piles up to 160 degrees Fahrenheit. Soon, cooler temperatures combined with less stuff to feed the pile makes for cooler composting. I let these piles “cook” longer, the longer time making up for lower temperatures. Getting everything ready for winter is a leisurely process, inching along over the next few weeks. By then, tender vegetable plants and weeds will have been tucked into compost piles and beds will be blanketed in either compost, compost and growing oats or late fall vegetables. Mr. Warner, mentioned in my opening paragraph, went on to say, “A garden should be got ready for winter as well as for summer…I like a man who shaves (next to one who doesn’t shave) to satisfy his own conscience, and not for display, and who dresses as neatly at home as he does anywhere. Such a man will be likely to put his garden in complete order before the snow comes, so that its last days shall not present a scene of melancholy ruin and decay.” I’m going to shave now. – Lee Reich Any gardening questions?

DATED: October 22, 2015 - Kingston, New York Victoria A. Fabella, Clerk - Ulster County Legislature Local Law No. 9 Of 2015 County Of Ulster A Local Law Establishing A Sustainable Green Fleet Policy BE IT ENACTED, by the Legislature of the County of Ulster, as follows: SECTION 1. LEGISLATIVE INTENT AND PURPOSE. The Ulster County Legislature finds that government must be innovative, efficient, and cost effective. Ulster County recognizes that energy use associated with the operation of its motor vehicle fleets exacerbates local air quality problems and results in greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global climate change. While the operation and maintenance of the County vehicle fleet is essential to the ability to provide a wide range of services to the public, the fleet represents a significant environmental and financial cost to Ulster County. In 2012, the County’s baseline year for its Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventory, the fleet consumed 201,000 gallons of gasoline and over 306,000 gallons of diesel fuel and was responsible for the emission of approximately 4,899 metric tons of CO2 equivalent or approximately 35% of the County’s total GHG emissions. Energy costs represent a significant amount of spending for Ulster County government and Ulster County desires to continue in its leadership role in environmental stewardship. The County’s energy costs totaled $4,178,670 in fiscal year 2014 of which $1,734,637 is vehicle energy costs. Ulster County recognizes that its agencies and/or departments have a significant role to play in improving local air quality and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by improving the energy efficiency of its Fleet and reducing emissions from fleet operations. Ulster County recognizes that improving the energy efficiency of its fleet can lead to significant long-term monetary savings.
Ulster County wishes to exercise its power as a participant in the marketplace to ensure that purchases and expenditures of public monies are made in a manner consistent with the policy of improving local air quality and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Ulster County wishes to establish a “Green Fleet” policy addressing the vehicles of the fleet under the control of the County in order to improve vehicle fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A Green Fleet Policy involves a number of different steps to reduce emissions, decrease costs, and increase efficiency. These steps include: a. the downsizing of vehicles b. the optimization of vehicle use c. incorporate efficiency into bid specifications d. maximize vehicle efficiency through maintenance and operation e. the elimination of vehicles f. where possible encourage the use of transit systems, bike riding, walking, & telecommuting Ulster County is committed to using electric, hybrid-electric, hybrid and sustainable green vehicles across the fleet. Any initiative to introduce alternative fuel technologies will consider the sustainability of the fuel including lifecycle energy and emissions, as well as the renewability of the fuel source. Additionally Ulster County seeks to move toward zero emission vehicles by promoting the use of electric, hybrid-electric, hybrid, and sustainable green vehicles by residents and will do so by: 1. Giving priority to purchasing hybrid, hybrid-electric, and sustainable green vehicles; and 2. Installing electric vehicle charging stations at County-owned facilities. 3. Supporting initiatives and research which will lead to the further deployment of electric, hybrid-electric, hybrid, and sustainable green vehicles across the community. SECTION 2. DEFINITIONS. 1. “Green Vehicle” refers to any vehicle that employs technology that reduces fuel consumption or emissions and shall include, but is not limited to, vehicles that have electric drive trains (EVs), hybrid-electric, and hybrid vehicles that use both a rechargeable energy storage system and combustible fuel (HVs). 2. “Passenger Vehicle” means any motor vehicle designed primarily for the transportation of persons and having a design capacity of twelve persons or less. 3. “Light Duty Truck” means any motor vehicle, with a manufacturer’s gross vehicle weight rating of 6,000 pounds or less, which is designed primarily for purposes of transportation of property or is a derivative of such a vehicle, or is available with special features enabling off-street or off-highway operation and use. 4. “Medium Duty Vehicle” means any vehicle having a manufacturer’s gross vehicle weight rating of 14,000 pounds or less and which is not a light-duty truck or passenger vehicle. 5. “Heavy Duty Vehicle” means any motor vehicle, licensed for use on roadways, having a manufacturer’s gross vehicle weight rating greater than 14,000 pounds. SECTION 3. FLEET INVENTORY. 1. In order to establish a baseline of data so that the “Green Fleet” policy can be established, implemented, and monitored, the Fleet Manager, in consultation with the Coordinator of the Department of Environment, shall develop an inventory and assessment of the fleet vehicles within each department or agency. This inventory shall include: a. Number of vehicles classified by the model year, make, model, engine size, vehicle identification number (VIN), drivetrain type (2-wheel drive or 4-wheel drive), and the rated vehicle weight and classification (light-duty, mediumduty, heavy-duty); b. Miles per gallon (or gallon equivalent) per vehicle; c. Type of fuel (or power source, e.g., electricity) used; d. Average cost per gallon (or gallon equiva-
lent) of fuel; e. Average fuel cost per mile; f. Annual miles driven per vehicle; g. Total fuel (or power) consumption per vehicle; h. Vehicle function (i.e., the tasks associated with the vehicle’s use); i. Estimated emissions per mile for each pollutant by vehicle type/class based on EPA tailpipe standards for the following: Carbon Monoxide (CO), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), and Particulate Matter (PM). j. Carbon Dioxide (CO2) calculations based on gallons (or gallon equivalent) of fuel consumed. 2. Once the Fleet Inventory from each department is submitted, an assessment on vehicular use will be performed by the Fleet Manager, in consultation with the Coordinator of the Department of Environment. The assessment will examine; a. vehicle needs; b. the use of the smallest, most efficient vehicle to carry out necessary tasks; and c. replacing existing vehicles with Green vehicles that will accomplish substantially the same tasks. SECTION 4. THE ULSTER COUNTY GREEN FLEET POLICY. It is the policy of Ulster County: 1. to purchase, lease, or otherwise obtain the most energy efficient and cost effective vehicles possible that meet the operational needs of the County. 2. to purchase vehicles that are appropriately sized for the purposes to which they are intended. 3. to manage and operate its fleet in a manner that is energy efficient and minimizes emissions. 4. that all County employees in Ulster County owned vehicles at any time, or in personal vehicles while on County property during work shifts, shall not allow a vehicle to be left to idle for any period of time greater than five minutes. This policy shall not apply during times of emergency response or for vehicles which require longer idling periods for equipment operations needs. SECTION 5. GREEN FLEET POLICY STRATEGIES. In order to accomplish the goals stated in Section 4 above, the following policies shall be implemented: 1. Include a minimum efficiency standard in miles per gallon (or gallon equivalent) for each vehicle class for which the County has a procurement specification for and include such a standard in any new vehicle procurement specification. 2. Include a minimum emissions standard for each vehicle class for which the County has a procurement specification for and include such a standard in any new vehicle procurement specifications. 3. Ensure a minimum of 5% of the fleet by 2020 are Green vehicles. Thereafter, annually, a minimum of 20% of passenger vehicles purchased, leased or otherwise obtained will be Green and Green vehicles that qualify in another vehicle weight class may, for the purposes of this requirement, qualify as a passenger vehicle on a one vehicle for one vehicle basis. 4. Review all vehicle procurement specifications and modify them as necessary to ensure that the specifications are written in a manner flexible enough to allow the purchase or lease of green vehicles. 5. Review every new vehicle purchase request and modify them as necessary to ensure that the vehicle class to which the requesting vehicle belongs is appropriate for the duty requirements that the vehicle will be called upon to perform. 6. Review the fleet inventory taken in Section 3 above to identify older vehicles that are used infrequently (or not at all), as well as those vehicles that are disproportionately inefficient, and schedule their elimination or replacement. 7. Implement a program that will train County employees to drive efficiently and utilize efficient operating techniques such as route optimization. 8. Reduce motor vehicle use by the utiliza-

Situations Wanted
FOSTER HOMES NEEDED FOR KITTENS AND PREGNANT CATS.The WOODSTOCK FERAL CAT PROJECT is
a local not for profit organization committed to reducing future feral cat populations through spay/neuter. We often find orphaned kittens who need a loving home until they are old enough to be adopted. Some orphaned kittens are so young that they require bottle feeding. We affectionately call them “bottle babies”. We recently placed three pregnant cats in three wonderful homes. The cats gave birth and when the kittens are weaned (no longer nursing), we will look to find loving homes for the kittens and their mothers. If you are interested in fostering or would like to learn more about fostering, please call (917) 2822018 or email DRJLPK@AOL.COM. DIANA’S FANCY FLEA MARKET: Nice Items Needed for Next Sale!

PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN. (Never known to fail.) Oh, most beautiful flower of Mt. Carmel, fruitful vine splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God. Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh, Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my mother. Oh, Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth! I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in this necessity. There are none that can withstand your power. Oh, show me herein you are my mother. Oh Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee (3x). Holy Mother, I place this cause in your hands (3x). Holy Spirit, you who solve all problems, light all roads so that I can attain my goal. You who gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me and that in all instances in my life you are with me, I want in this short prayer to thank-you for all things as you confirm once again that I never want to be separated from you in eternal glory. Thank-you for your mercy towards me and mine. The person must say
