A Letter to the Readers of the Syracuse New Times I picked up my first copy of the Syracuse New Times on campus in 1969 when I was an undergrad at Syracuse University, and I was immediately hooked. Also euphoric. This can’t be real, I thought. A cool, hipper-than-hip underground newspaper like The Village Voice right here in my backyard? It was a watershed moment. . . and the 1960s had officially arrived in Syracuse. A year later, after a friend of a friend brought me to the paper’s hipster headquarters on Comstock Avenue to meet its founder Ken Simon, I began writing for it as a part-time stringer. It was an inconspicuous debut: a review of Float Like a Butterfly, a book about the legendary Muhammad Ali written by former Cus D’Amato stablemate and Light Heavyweight Champion Jose “Chegui” Torre, but it informed me this was a publication that was open to anything. So for the next 13 years, I wrote feature articles and covered stories about everything from sports, labor struggles, politics and music to the cool people who made our City of Underdogs someplace special. It was my first real exposure to any semblance of public life in Syracuse, in a career that would later take me to the Civic Center and the Landmark Theatre on my way to music industry gigs in Manhattan, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, New Orleans and Detroit. Eventually, over the course of the next 36 years, I wound up being featured on the cover myself for one reason or another (like losing a major gig here or there), but the reasons were usually pretty cool, like the founding of Syracuse Jazz Fest, and the founding of the Syracuse Area Music Awards (the Sammys) and the creation of the Syracuse Walk of Stars after being hired to help save the city’s last remaining movie palace on Salina Street, a venue that had fallen on hard times. As I look back on my many incarnations and my 50 years in public life in Syracuse, I realize that absolutely nothing I managed to accomplish during that span would have been possible without my constant companion, the Syracuse New Times. The Newt, as we affectionately called it back in the day, was always there, and it was always a champion of the Syracuse arts, and music and entertainment scene. Then, as now, it was our go-to paper for everything that was happening in town. It was also our prime source for stories that mattered, stories that bothered to go in depth to get at the truth of whatever skullduggery and scandal was happening in our little corner of the universe. As the paper shifts of necessity to a new subscription model next month, consistent with the trending Netflixs and Spotifys of the world, I hope you’ll all join me in subscribing to the Syracuse New Times for the next year (or 10) to make sure this incredible publication stays in service to a community that needs it so desperately. I can’t speak for Syracuse Stage, or the Everson Museum of Art, or Open Hand Theatre, or Syracuse Cinephile Society nor for any one of the countless arts organizations and cultural institutions in the community that have relied upon and benefited from the Syracuse New Times’ support since 1969, but I can tell you with absolute certainty that there would never have been a Sammys, a Walk of Stars or a Syracuse Jazz Fest without them. There’s also an excellent chance the Landmark might have gone dark had they not been there with me every day for the seven years I was there at the helm doing what I could to keep the doors open. Now it’s our turn. If the doors of the Syracuse New Times were ever to close, it wouldn’t just be a sad day, it would be more like a final curtain call for the city we love. We can’t let that happen, Syracuse. We can’t remain on the sidelines for this subscription campaign, saying things like “Gee, too bad it’s gone” or “Well, it had a great run but nothing lasts forever.” The Syracuse New Times deserves better from us. So does Syracuse.

TOTO TUNEAGE

Namibian artist Max Siedentopf, 27, has placed an installation in the ancient Namib Desert, consisting of six speakers attached to an MP3 player projecting the song “Africa” by Toto — over and over and over, for all eternity. The song, released in 1982, has enjoyed a resurgence of popularity, and was one of Spotify’s “Top Throwback Songs” in 2018. Siedentopf told the BBC that solar batteries will keep the song playing forever: “I wanted to pay the song the ultimate homage and physically exhibit ‘Africa’ in Africa, but I’m sure the harsh environment of the desert will devour the installation eventually.”

BREAKFAST MENU

Around 7 a.m. on Jan. 6, at a McDonald’s in San Francisco, a man carried a dead raccoon into the restaurant and lay it on a table, then sat down with it. Restaurant patron Chris Brooks captured the spectacle on Facebook Live, recording as the man stood from his seat and walked around the restaurant, talking with people. Another man, wearing gloves, then picked the raccoon up by its tail and took it outside to a garbage can, trailing blood on the floor. Fox News reported San Francisco police responded to the restaurant and released the unidentified raccoon owner after speaking with him. McDonald’s closed the store immediately and reopened two hours later after sanitizing the dining room. One patron wrote on Twitter: “I’ve seen worse than a dead raccoon at that same McDonald’s.”

LOVE GONE WRONG

It was love at first arrest for 27-yearold Ashley Keister of Nanticoke, Pennsylvania, when she was apprehended by a West Wyoming, Pennsylvania, police officer last year. Ever since, Police Chief Curtis Nocera told the Associated Press, Keister had been harassing the officer with sexual messages on social media and would call 911 just to talk with him. On Jan. 7, police said, Keister took her infatuation a step further, using a large cigarette butt receptacle to break through the door of the West Wyoming police station around 1 a.m., where she rummaged through filing cabinets. Keister was caught on surveillance video and was charged with aggravated assault on a police officer, burglary and vandalism.

BRIGHT IDEA

In Williamson County, Texas, Sheriff Robert Chody has employed a new cadre of deputies to help deter speeding. Interestingly, they all look alike. The cardboard cutouts, which Chody has placed along roads where speeding is common, depict one of the department’s real-life deputies pointing a radar device at the roadway. “It’s a creative way to solve the problem without really working the problem,” he told KTCB-TV. “Slow down because you never know if it’s the real deal or not,” he warned. The sheriff said he tested the idea in school zones and, “We didn’t get one speeder.”

THE HONEYMOONERS

In January 2018, Amanda Sparrow Large, 46, of Belfast, Ireland, stretched the May-December union to new lengths when she wed a 300-year-old ghost of a Haitian pirate. “I wanted the big traditional wedding with the white dress. It was very important to me,” she told The Irish Mirror. Large said that “Jack,” who was executed for thieving on the high seas, became known to her one night in 2014, when she felt the energy of a spirit next to her while lying in bed. Large has worked as a Jack Sparrow (of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies) impersonator, and she believes her job opened the door for her spirit-husband to reach out to her. Alas, the Mirror reported on Dec. 8, things didn’t work out for the odd couple: “I will explain all in due course,” Large wrote on social media, “but for now all I want to say is be VERY careful when dabbling in spirituality. It’s not something to mess with.”

ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT

Roxy Sykes, 33, of London, had a brainstorm that started when someone complimented her on her beautiful feet. “I was convinced to set up a social media account to show them off,” she told Metro News on Nov. 1. But that was just the ground floor for the pedo-preneur. “It wasn’t until I started getting thousands of followers and messages about selling used items that I realized I could profit from it,” she said. In her busiest month, she grossed more than 8,000 pounds peddling socks, shoes and videos to foot fetishists. “Pairs of shoes that I would

03.27.19 - 04.2.19 | syracusenew times.com

wear for two months would sell for 200 pounds, and a pair of socks that I wore for a day would sell for 20 pounds. Then a single video of me just wiggling my toes would make 100 pounds, so I was really raking in a lot of money,” she continued. Overall, she says she’s pulling down about 100,000 pounds a year. Sykes has also mentored fellow fetish models: “It’s great to be able to help others and teach people my apparent ‘talent,’” she said.

One of the cyclists threw his helmet at the drone as it flew off, and the others ran down the tower’s steps to chase the drone on foot. Happily, the drone dropped the bike a few hundred feet from the tower.

CRIKEY!

Coming soon from the state-run news agency Xinhua in China: the first artificial intelligence anchorman. “Artificial Intelligence Anchor” debuted at the World Internet Conference in Wuzhen, China, on Nov. 7. The virtual host, based on images of human news broadcasters, can have real-time news typed into its system even while it’s on air. A synthesized voice reads the script. Xinhua told Time magazine that its new anchor can work “24 hours a day. . . reducing news production costs and improving efficiency.” But does it have a personal catchphrase, such as “Good night, and good news”?

A Jackson County sheriff’s deputy in Kansas City, Missouri, serving an eviction notice on Nov. 7, was startled to discover Katfish, a 7-foot-long, 200-pound alligator that tenant Sean Casey kept as a pet, along with three pythons, a rabbit and several cats. Casey told KSHB-TV that he’s had Katfish for four years. “He’s a big cuddly gator,” Casey said. “He wags his tail when I come home.” The gator could lounge in the home’s bathtub, and “get up and get out and cruise through the house,” said Dana Savorelli with Monkey Island Rescue, who officers called to help wrangle the alligator. “He had a ramp.” Unfortunately, alligators are prohibited in Kansas City, so Katfish was relocated to Monkey Island in nearby Greenwood, Missouri. And although Casey said Katfish was “not a vicious animal like some people make them out to be,” he was ticketed for possessing an exotic animal within city limits.

SHROOM SERVICE

BOOMING BUSINESS

STAY CLASSY, SAN DIEGO

Scientists at the Stevens Institute of Technology in New Jersey have created a mushroom that can produce electricity using light, Discover magazine reports. Using common button mushrooms, cyanobacteria (very adept at photosynthesis) and graphene nanoribbons (to make electrodes to transport the electricity), researchers were able to produce harvestable electricity by shining a light on their “bionic mushroom.” While the amount of electricity created was small, the team noted the experiment demonstrated an “environment-friendly and green source of photosynthetic bioelectricity.”

FLIGHT RISK

On Nov. 12, a group of cyclists in Hustopece, Moravia, Czech Republic, enjoyed a sunny afternoon of riding to a local landmark known as Lookout Tower, reported United Press International. Taking in the view from the top of the tower, they saw a drone flying around and took video of it, capturing the moment when the drone picked up one of their bicycles from the ground and flew away with it.

Like many recently untethered people, Kimberly Santleben-Stiteler, 43, wanted to celebrate her divorce with a party, so on Nov. 10, she hosted about 40 people at her father’s farm near Lacoste, Texas, about 25 miles west of San Antonio. The big bang of the party wasn’t the music or the food, though, according to the San Antonio Star-Telegram. Santleben-Stiteler wanted to burn her wedding dress, which “represented a lie,” she said, and not just burn it, but blow it up. Her dad and brother-in-law attached exploding targets to the dress, and to really take things up a notch, also rigged it with 20 pounds of Tannerite, the same explosive used in the targets. “We have a friend who is a bomb tech, and he kept saying, ‘That’s really a lot,’” the un-bride’s sister told the newspaper. Shooting from 200 yards away, Santleben-Stiteler hit her target on the first shot. “The explosion was huge,” she said. Residents of Medina County heard and felt the explosion as far away as 15 miles. “It was liberating pulling that trigger,” Santleben-Stiteler said. “It was closure for all of us.”

CRIME REPORT

Suspected car prowler Isaiah John Gellatly, 31, of Vancouver, Washington, was going about his business late on Nov. 19 when Happy Valley police were called, according to Fox12 News. Responding officers found Gellatly lying fully reclined in the driver’s seat of a Honda Accord matching the suspect vehicle’s description. Suddenly Gellatly sat up and sped away, leading to a pursuit and the use of spike strips. As his ability to control the car decreased, police said, Gellatly opened his door to flee, but forgot to put the Honda in park, so it rolled alongside him as he ran. Eventually he tried to run in front of it, as the car hit a tree, a building — and Gellatly, breaking one of his legs. Suspected stolen items found in the car included a tennis racket,

a Ping-Pong paddle and a Texas Instruments calculator, begging the question: Was it worth a broken leg?

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Things got “a little hectic” in Clarendon, Virginia, on Dec. 5 when an unexpectedly large number of delivery drivers convened at the Cheesecake Factory in response to a 40th anniversary promotion offering free cheesecake slices. The sweet treats were available only to those who ordered on DoorDash, ARLnow. com reported, and a crowd of delivery drivers double-parked outside and jostled for position inside the restaurant as they picked up orders. Arlington County police and medics responded to reports of fights and disorderly conduct, resulting in one arrest but no apparent injuries.

NO FREE LUNCH

The Cranston (Rhode Island) School District is taking its response to delinquent school lunch accounts up a notch, reported WJAR-TV on Dec. 6. District COO Raymond Votto Jr. sent a letter to parents notifying them that a collection agency will be contacting those with lunch overdrafts starting on Jan. 2 and noted that the current deficit is almost $46,000. “The district lunch program cannot continue to lose revenue,” Votto wrote. The letter specified that students will continue to receive food regardless of whether their account is in arrears. Families with unpaid charges of more than $20 will be notified by mail, which the district called a softer approach.

UNCLEAR ON THE CONCEPT

Dominick Breedlove of Spring Hill, Florida, doomed his chances of landing a job at Kohl’s on Dec. 5, reported Fox 13 News, by getting arrested for shoplifting after his interview. Breedlove arrived for his appointment with Human Resources around 3:20 that afternoon, Hernando County Sheriff’s deputies said, and afterward stopped to browse in the shoe department. A loss prevention officer watching Breedlove told police the suspect went outside to his car, retrieved a Kohl’s shopping bag and returned to the store, where he stashed two pairs of Nike athletic shoes worth $150 in the bag. Breedlove was charged with shoplifting, and the sheriff’s office confirmed he was not hired.

Big Apple gamble: The prospect of downstate casinos can do collateral damage throughout the Empire State. Michael Davis photo

THINGS THAT MATTER

ANTE MAIM

Betting on casinos in Manhattan will likely deal a huge blow to upstate’s gaming facilities

BY LUKE PARSNOW few weeks ago, Victoria’s Secret closed its location at Great Northern Mall in Clay. It’s the latest development in a well-known national narrative: Traditional shopping malls are dying at an accelerated rate as the stores inside them close up and move out. It’s easy for us to assume that the decline of malls is largely attributed to Amazon and other online retail websites. While e-commerce has completely transformed the way we buy things, online shopping still only amounts for less than 10 percent of overall retail sales. And mall foot traffic has been on the decline since the early 1990s, long before online shopping became mainstream. The decline of malls is not due to too much of a new thing, but rather too much of the same thing. According to Cowen and Company’s research analysts, the number of shopping malls in the United States grew more than twice as fast as the population between 1970 and 2015. In Central New York, after Shoppingtown in DeWitt became enclosed in 1975, two

more large-scale malls — Great Northern and Carousel Center — opened fewer than 15 years later. Over time, the success of mainly smaller suburban malls caused more and more to be built, eventually saturating the market and cannibalizing competition, resulting in the shuttered storefronts and empty parking lots of malls that we now see all the time. We built too many of them to sustain all of them. That same basic supply-and-demand flaw that sank malls can now be applied to the rapid expansion of casinos across New York state. Ever since the first of the four state-run Las Vegas-style upstate gaming facilities opened in December 2016, all of their performances have been defined by substantial revenue shortfalls. What were supposed to be cash cows that would revitalize the upstate economy have instead produced revenue tens of millions of dollars less than previously predicted. A year ago, del Lago Resort and Casino in Seneca County requested the state grant the casino a tax break of $14 mil-

03.27.19 - 04.2.19 | syracusenew times.com

lion to make up the loss. Not long before that, Moody’s Investor Services had downgraded del Lago’s credit ratings from stable to negative. Two months ago, Moody’s downgraded the facility a second time, saying it does not believe the casino will generate enough money to cover its financial obligations over the next 12 to 18 months. Like malls, New York has now built too many casinos. When Turning Stone in Verona opened in 1993, it was the only land-based casino in the entire state. Now there are seven of them along a 100-mile stretch of the thruway from the Rochester area to Albany. With the four new staterun casinos, along with the ones operated by the Indian tribes and the numerous racinos in between, the market has become saturated. Each new casino that opens ends up stealing customers from the others, hurting business for all of them. Things aren’t expected to improve. Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s recent financial plan forecast that school aid provided by casino revenue will dip by about 4 percent in 2022 and 2023 and video lottery

terminal aid will fall flat by 2023. Most of the revenue from casinos goes toward funding education. But with all that, you’d never guess what great idea is suddenly swirling around Albany as lawmakers negotiate the state budget: Build more casinos, and build them sooner than expected. Lobbyists from major gaming companies have swarmed the capitol in recent weeks to meet with lawmakers about their outrageous proposal to expand casino licenses to New York City as a way to generate millions of dollars in revenue for the state. Under the 2013 agreement that legalized casino gambling in New York, a moratorium was put on New York City’s eligibility for licensing until 2023, the point being to focus on upstate casinos so the region could get a head start on reaping the rewards. Now these lobbyists, which include former Gov. David Paterson, want to fast-track that timeline and open the downstate area to casino license applications this year. If that was done, the new casinos would have to pay the upstate ones hundreds of millions of dollars in fines for violating the original agreement, which they say they would do. But paying fines is completely missing the point. Fast-tracking casinos in New York City will only fast-track the upstate venues’ eventual failure, not just because they will even further saturate the New York market, but because they will further saturate the epicenter of the saturated market that is the Northeast coastline. Just down the road is Atlantic City, New Jersey, which once had the casino monopoly on the entire region until Pennsylvania, Delaware and other nearby states began building casinos. The growing expansion turned a rare gem into a common stone, which is why several of Atlantic City’s casinos have closed or filed for bankruptcy in recent years, and some were sold for way less than what it cost to build them. Now New York City may be the next gambler — and next victim — to ante up to the delusion that casinos are the golden pot at the end of the economic rainbow. It sounds about as good an idea as constructing a new shopping mall in Central New York to make up for the loss in tax revenue from Great Northern and Shoppingtown over the last few years. It took us decades to figure out the reason why malls were failing. That’s why not a single major indoor mall has been built in the United States since 2006. With New York’s casinos, we already know the reason. And yet, we just want to keep building them.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19) Kermit the Frog

from Sesame Street is the world’s most famous puppet. He has recorded songs, starred in films and TV shows, and written an autobiography. His image has appeared on postage stamps and he has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Kermit’s beginnings were humble, however. When his creator Jim Henson first assembled him, he consisted of Henson’s mom’s green coat and two halves of a white ping-pong ball. I mention this, Aries, because the current astrological omens suggest that you, too, could make a puppet that will one day have great influence. APRIL FOOL! I half-lied. Here’s the whole truth: Now isn’t a favorable time to start work on a magnificent puppet. But it is a perfect moment to launch the rough beginnings of a project that’s well-suited for your unique talents.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Taurus business-

man Chuck Feeney made a huge fortune as the entrepreneur who co-developed duty-free shopping. But at age 87, he lives frugally, having given away $8 billion to philanthropic causes. He doesn’t even own a house or car. In accordance with astrological omens, I invite you to follow his lead in the coming weeks. Be unreasonably generous and exorbitantly helpful. APRIL FOOL! I exaggerated a bit. While it’s true that now is an extra-favorable time to bestow blessings on everyone, you shouldn’t go overboard. Make sure your giving is artful, not careless or compulsive.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Now is a perfect

time to start learning the Inuktitut language spoken by the indigenous people of Eastern Canada. Here are some key phrases to get you underway. 1. UllusiuKattagit inosek: Celebrate your life! 2. Pitsialagigavit, piggogutivagit!: Because you’re doing amazing things, I’m proud of you! 3. Nalligijauvutit: You are loved! 4. Kajusitsiatuinnagit: Keep it up! APRIL FOOL! I lied. Now isn’t really a better time than any other to learn the Inuktitut language. But it is an important time to talk to yourself using phrases like

BY ROB BREZSNY those I mentioned. You need to be extra-kind and super-positive toward yourself.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) When he was 20

years old, Greek military leader Alexander the Great began to conquer the world. By age 30, he ruled the vast territory between Greece and northwest India. Never shy about extolling his own glory, he named 70 cities after himself. I offer his example as a model for you. Now is a favorable time to name clouds after yourself, as well as groves of trees, stretches of highway, buses, fire hydrants, parking spaces and rocks. APRIL FOOL. I got a bit carried away. It’s true that now is a good time to assert your authority, extend your clout, and put your unique stamp on every situation. But I don’t recommend that you name entire cities after yourself.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Now is an excellent time

to join an exotic religion. How about the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, which believes that true spiritual devotion requires an appreciation of satire? Or how about Discordianism, which worships the goddess of chaos and disorder? Then there’s the United Church of Bacon, whose members exult in the flavor of their favorite food. (Here’s a list of more: tinyurl.com/ WeirdReligions.) APRIL FOOL! I wasn’t entirely truthful. It’s accurate to say that now is a great time to reinvigorate and transform your spiritual practice. But it’s better if you figure that out by yourself. There’s no need to get your ideas from a bizarre cult.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Studies show that

people who love grilled cheese sandwiches engage in more sexual escapades than those who don’t gorge on grilled cheese sandwiches. So I advise you to eat a lot of grilled cheese sandwiches, because then you will have more sex than usual. And that’s important, because you are now in a phase when you will reap huge healing benefits from having as much sex as possible. APRIL FOOL! I lied when I implied that eating more grilled cheese sandwiches would

motivate you to have more sex. But I wasn’t lying when I said that you should have more sex than usual. And I wasn’t lying when I said you will reap huge benefits from having as much sex as possible. (P.S. If you don’t have a partner, have sex with your fantasies or yourself.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) If you ever spend time

at the McMurdo Station in Antarctica, you’ll get a chance to become a member of the 300 Club. To be eligible, you wait until the temperature outside drops to minus 100 degrees Fahrenheit. When it does, you spend 20 minutes in a sauna heated to 200 degrees. Then you exit into the snow and ice wearing nothing but white rubber boots, and run a few hundred feet to a ceremonial pole and back. In so doing, you expose your naked body to a swing of 300 degrees. According to my astrological analysis, now is an ideal time to pull off this feat. APRIL FOOL! I lied. I’m not really urging you to join the 300 Club. On the other hand, I do think it’s a favorable phase to go to extremes for an authentically good cause.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Scientific research

shows that if you arrange to get bitten by thousands of mosquitoes in a relatively short time, you make yourself immune. Forever after, mosquito bites won’t itch you. Now would be an excellent time for you to launch such a project. APRIL FOOL! I lied. I don’t really think you should do that. On the contrary. You should scrupulously avoid irritations and aggravations, especially little ones. Instead, immerse yourself in comfort and ease. Be as free from vexation as you have ever been!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) If allowed to

do what comes naturally, two rabbits and their immediate descendants will produce 1,300 new rabbits in 12 months’ time. In five years, their offspring would amount to 94 million. I suspect that you will approach this level of fertility in the next four weeks, at least in a metaphorical sense. APRIL FOOL! I stretched the truth a bit. There’s

no way you will produce more than a hundred good new ideas and productions and gifts. At the most, you’ll generate a mere 50.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) The weather

is warm year-round and the crime rate is low on Pitcairn, a remote South Pacific island that is a 30-hour boat ride away from the nearest airport. The population has been dwindling in recent years, however, which is why the government offers foreigners free land if they choose to relocate. You might want to consider taking advantage of this opportunity. APRIL FOOL! I was exaggerating. It’s true that you could get major health benefits by taking a sabbatical from civilization. But there’s no need to be so drastic about it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You don’t have to run faster than the bear that’s chasing you. You just have to run faster than the slowest person the bear is chasing. OK? So don’t worry! APRIL FOOL! What I just said wasn’t your real horoscope. I hope you know me well enough to understand that I would NEVER advise you to save your own ass by betraying or sacrificing someone else. It’s also important to note that the bear I mentioned is entirely metaphorical in nature. So please ignore what I said earlier. However, I do want you to know that there are effective ways to elude the symbolic bear that are also honorable. To discover them, meditate on calming down the beastly bear-like qualities in yourself. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Now is a favorable

time to disguise yourself as a bland nerd with no vivid qualities, or a shy wallflower with no strong opinions, or a polite wimp who prefers to avoid adventure. Please don’t even consider doing anything that’s too interesting or controversial. APRIL FOOL! I lied. The truth is, I hope you’ll do the opposite of what I suggested. I think it’s time to express your deep authentic self with aggressive clarity. Be brave and candid and enterprising.

THIS BUD’S FOR YOU

Catalpa Flower Farm is taking root as spring weather takes hold in Central New York

BY MARGARET McCORMICK

pring arrived last week with sunshine, 50-degree temperatures and melting snow. Lindsey Jakubowski is stoked for a full serving of both spring and summer — warm temperatures, gentle rains and sun-soaked days — for digging and planting in the dirt. Jakubowski, 35, has spent the winter working her side hustle as a small-business consultant while daydreaming about warmer days, lingering over seed catalogs and preparing for a full season doing business as Catalpa Flower Farm, a new, flower-powered CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) in Central New York. “I am so ready for spring!” Jakubowski said earlier this month. “It can’t come soon enough.” Late winter/early spring is the time of year you start to hear about local CSAs and subscriptions. With CSA subscriptions, or shares, customers basically pay in advance for a growing season’s worth of homegrown produce. The investment allows farmers to purchase seeds, supplies and equipment. Jakubowski is taking the CSA concept in a different direction by offering seed-to-cen-

03.27.19 - 04.2.19 | syracusenew times.com

terpiece flower subscriptions. Three options are available: four weeks ($64), eight weeks ($128) and 12 weeks ($192). Her field-grown and foraged bouquets will be available for pickup on Saturdays starting in May at the Central New York Regional Market. For restaurants, bars and other businesses, Jakubowski offers a weekly flower bud vase delivery service, as well as edible flowers, like nasturtiums, calendula, pansies and others, for cakes and other baked goods, cocktails and garnishes to make plates pretty. You may have seen her flowers in white vases on the tables at The Sweet Praxis in downtown Syracuse last year. Edible flowers from Catalpa also made their way onto the bakery’s vegan shortbread cookies. Jakubowski grew up in Kirkville, attended East Syracuse-Minoa schools and is a graduate of SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry in Syracuse. She worked for Cornell Cooperative Extension’s agriculture development program in Madison County before co-founding Kriemhild Dairy Farms, a regional producer known for its meadow butter and crème fraiche, with the Rivington family. As a partner and general manager with

Kriemhild, Jakubowski traveled extensively in New York state to promote the brand and its products and spent a lot of time at farmers markets. On her travels downstate, she would look forward to seeing a grower with fabulous flowers and dried flowers. That got her thinking. “I’m an entrepreneur,” Jakubowski says. “I was at Kriemhild from the beginning and I loved every part of running a business, from the marketing to crunching numbers to solving problems. I was traveling a lot and wanted to slow down. I wanted to get physical. And I wanted to do something smaller.” She kept going back to flowers. Jakubowski has always had an appreciation for the beauty and the science of plants and flowers, and a desire to let passion and purpose drive her work. The idea of a flower farm and flower CSA started to take root. She started out small last year, growing a variety of cutting flowers at Main Street Farms and selling some bud vase subscriptions to local businesses. This season, Jakubowski is making use of a greenhouse at Main Street Farms’ original location in Homer before transitioning to the farm’s fields, at the former Reed’s Seeds,

outside Cortland. On just an eighth of an acre, she will plant dozens of varieties of flowers, everything from asters to zinnias, along with dahlias, celosia, foxgloves, snapdragons, roses and some more rare flowers like nigella, which has light blue petals and delicate foliage. “You can grow a ton of flowers in a really small space,” Jakubowski says. Jakubowski and her husband live on the west side of Syracuse. She was so ready for spring that she started some plants in her basement. She eventually plans to buy land in Onondaga County and have a greenhouse or greenhouses so she can extend the growing season. “Patience is a virtue I’m learning,” she says. Catalpa Flower Farm will be at the Central New York Farmers Market each Saturday in May. Jakubowski is excited

for marketgoers to be able to see, smell and taste fresh-cut flowers. Also in May, Catalpa will “pop up” at The Tiniest Pop Shop, a former tollbooth (four square feet) in the parking lot at 225 1/2 W. Jefferson St., behind the MOST and near Wildflowers Armory. By May, she hopes to have narcissus, tulips, sweet peas and ranunculus (a flower known for its vivid colors and rose-like blossoms). “I’m really excited to just get out there this year,” Jakubowski says.

STAGE

ROMANCING THE TOME

Kate Hamill headlines her own wild adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice at Syracuse Stage

BY JAMES MACKILLOP

or authenticity it would be like staging Private Lives with Noel Coward playing Elyot, the role he wrote for himself. Well, here’s Kate Hamill, named Playwright of the Year in 2017 by The Wall Street Journal and one of the five most-produced playwrights in the United States for the 2018-2019 season. She’s performing in her adaptation of Jane Austen’s ever-popular Pride and Prejudice at Syracuse Stage through April 7. Hamill takes two roles, as Lydia, the most rebellious of the Bennet girls, and dreadnaught Lady Catherine De Bourgh. Further ensuring the deal, Hamill’s fiancé, Jason O’Connell, who played Darcy in the premiere three years ago, is directing this production. What’s surprising is that all that authenticity is just the opposite of a vise

or a straightjacket. This Pride and Prejudice is far and away the most innovative, farcical and wildest of the three Hamill-Austen adaptations seen on the Syracuse New Times beat in the last year. Bring the playwright and her fiancé here, and they will allow all the players to cut loose. Like other actors who became playwrights, Hamill gives us a text in which all eight members of the cast get to show off, each one to have a show-stopping moment. Or many such moments as six of the players double up on roles, often jumping gender barriers. We are always in on the gag as some actors have the next needed costume readily at hand, changing without bothering to retreat to the wings. There’s never anything to slow the breakneck pace. Hamill’s method and director O’Connell’s

03.27.19 - 04.2.19 | syracusenew times.com

method is that we unquestionably know that the “man” with distinguishing gestures in the second act was a “woman” with a very different walk in the first. There is no secret why Hamill’s adaptations, even with other directors, have become so popular. Zillions of readers are cultishly devoted to Jane Austen. This boosted the fashion for Austen movies in the 1990s, but the books have been too clunky for the stage. Hamill adopts the approach of the spoofers who gave us Around the World in 80 Days and Alfred Hitchcock’s The 39 Steps, by stripping down the action and having a limited number of actors take multiple roles. Only she’s not spoofing. For all her hilarity and achronology, this Pride delivers the goods in the last longish scenes. Lizzy Bennet (Angela Janas) patches up her differences with

the desired Mr. Darcy (dark, cool and sexy Carman Lacivita), and the required romantic effusion pours out. Faithful as Hamill is to Austen in her way, audiences already well-versed in the characters and plot twists of Price and Prejudice will be having more fun. Much of the energy in the opening scenes comes from fussbudget Mrs. Bennet (tall Stephan Wolfert in drag), whose interactions introduce us to the five sisters in the household. The first scene-stealer among them is tall, blonde Mary (Samantha Steinmetz), supposedly the plainest, most unmarriageable and resentful. When the first potential Bennet suitor, Mr. Bingley, arrives, Steinmetz morphs into him instantly. Following the novel’s portrayals, the Bennet paterfamilias is initially a quiet presence who takes his time in asserting

authority. In this production that dynamic is increased by having diminutive Ms. Joey Parsons, considerably shorter than Stephen Wolfert’s Mrs. B, in the role. Mr. Bennet is more absorbed with his reading, which turns out to be a recent issue of the Syracuse New Times! And his reading reveals important things about the old man. Although stern, Mr. Bennet is more hip than his noisy wife and gives critical support for Lizzy’s heartfelt decision. Unlike the Le Moyne College production of Sense and Sensibility (March 2018) or the Hangar Theatre’s Pride and Prejudice (July 2018), in which director O’Connell played Mr. Darcy, this production completely deconstructs chronology. When the young men and women go to a ball they’re hearing disco with the BeeGees’ “Stayin’ Alive,” as a mirrored globe rotates above. Sometimes we’re in Regency England (the novel was published in 1813), as Charlotte Palmer-Lane’s eclectic costume implies much time travel as well as place travel. Mr. Collins’ (Jeff Gonzalez) black cler-

gyman’s outfit with wide-brimmed hat was never seen in Great Britain. Actress-playwright Hamill makes good use of her time in the spotlight, but never tries to dominate the whole show as Noel Coward usually did. The romantic lead, of course, is Lizzy, which was Keira Knightly’s role in the 2005 movie version. She may have more lines than any other actor, but relatively few of them are funny. Instead, Hamill casts herself as Lydia, the sister we almost don’t notice until she runs off with the dastardly Mr. Wickham (Jeff Gonzalez again) in her return to the family as a kind of Regency punk. Hamill also reappears as the condescending Lady Catherine De Bourgh and temporarily blows everyone else away, as she comes on in full tigress mode. Her commands have a few echoes of Bette Davis in her prime without becoming mimicry. Some Janeites may find this Pride and Prejudice more than they wanted. But as the pianist and aesthetician Liberace once observed, “Too much of a good thing is wonderful.”

STAGE

LORD OF THE RING The Royale’s offbeat boxing drama lands a knockout punch

BY JAMES MACKILLOP

egend closely resembles history because they’re both made of the same stuff. Famed heavyweight boxing champion Jack Johnson (1878-1946) has already inspired a historically based drama, Howard Sackler’s Pulitzer Prize-winning The Great White Hope (1967), later filmed in 1970. Playwright Marco Ramirez has something else on his mind with his drama The Royale, running through Sunday,

March 31, at Ithaca’s Kitchen Theatre Company. The boxer protagonist of The Royale is named Jay Jackson (Jamal James) for creative independence. Although Jackson’s career follows the same trajectory as that of the historical, the lyrical words in his mouth are Ramirez’s projection, what the boxer might have said if he knew what was to follow in the next hundred years.

03.27.19 - 04.2.19 | syracusenew times.com

In saying something new, The Royale overturns every facile expectation and stomps on clichés. If your idea of a boxing drama arises from the movies Rocky and Raging Bull, you’ve come to the wrong place. No gloved fist ever connects with sweating flesh. Indeed, the innovative and unconventional staging is just the beginning of what makes The Royale compelling. When the drama appeared at Lincoln Center in 2016, the director was the paradigm-challenging Rachel Chavkin, currently helming the Orpheus-in-New Orleans musical Hadestown on Broadway. The director at the Kitchen is also female: Pirrone Yousefadah, associate artistic director at Rochester’s Geva Theatre. All the grunting, furious action takes place in the ring, designed by Seth Reiser. The speeded-up clang of the bell takes us in and out of rounds in rapid succession. Jay is taking on a challenger, the hapless Fish (DazMann Still), perhaps 80 percent of his weight and reach. Their stomping feet on the ring’s canvas floor signals the smashing blows. With his shaved head and supreme body builder’s physique, Jamal James gives the protagonist a dominating and intimidating presence. Although the men are standing a few feet apart, we see the power of the thrusting glove and also the register of disruption and pain on Fish’s face. One might call this mime if the word did not sound so effete. Credit instead the expertise of movement director Rocio Mendez. The most significant obstacle that the playwright has given us is his unfortunate title, which ranks with David Mamet’s college drama Oleanna in curbview obscurity. No, The Royale is not about a strip joint in Montreal. We do not learn until well past the midpoint of the 70-minute drama that the title refers to a moment in African-American history that even specialists are unlikely to know. Muscular black men would compete in boxing elimination contests until only one was standing. This was not to advance their careers but only to amuse the white men who were paying what negligible bills there were. Which gets us back to legend. Playwright Ramirez, the Miami-based son of white Cuban immigrants, says he was moved to write The Royale by seeing Ken Burns’ documentary Unforgivable Blackness (2005), based on Geoffrey C. Ward’s book of the same title. To prepare he saw several August Wilson plays and studied them, none of which touch

on Jack Johnson. By giving the boxer a fictional name, the playwright links him to so many other black athletes famed for their excellence, like Jesse Owens and Jackie Robinson. Up close, of course, they are all highly individual, with Owens and Robinson being admired rather than controversial. Unlike The Great White Hope, where the protagonist’s name is also altered to Jefferson, the fevered enmity of white America, especially of interracial sexual relationships, is not of prime concern. Instead, the one white character Max (Sean Meehan) is anything but a villain. In the larger scheme of things, he’s an asset for the boxer. His handlebar mustache, more than his comments, set the action in the first decade of the last century. But his casual, perhaps unconscious, demeaning remarks about color and race are low-keyed but abrasive reminders of how white America saw things. With a slight change in the pitch of his voice, Meehan also gives us all the other white characters, many of whose attitudes are like Max’s. In his dialogues with the other black characters, the boxer’s tensions become more existential and cultural than political. One of them is consoling, the trainer Wynton (Alexander Thomas), who could as well be a shrink or a clergyman. Thomas is the most significant Kitchen Theatre veteran in the cast; he has taken a wide range of roles over the years, and also writes the program notes, ordinarily the message from artistic director M. Bevin O’Gara. He speaks for weighty history. Another character is a moral challenger, the boxer’s sister Nina (Shakespearean Lisa Tharps, new to the company). Is Jay only out for himself? Will he discard all that he has been to move from being the black heavyweight champion to the All-American champion? Will he pay the price? What about the others? The brilliance of The Royale is that it gets audiences to confront a profound theme in a new way. The abominable treatment of millions of blacks is the greatest sin of America, but hearing about it again is not what audiences want to do in the theater. Anti-black discrimination might be cited, but it is peripheral noise: What we see here is what a struggle it must have been to break free. Meanwhile, Kitchen audiences will be impressed by the magnificent Jamal James in the lead, the right man in the right place, a fighting machine whose greater struggle is introspection.

A 1904-ERA BUILDING STANDS IN THE WAY OF A PROPOSED NORTH SIDE REDEVELOPMENT

ut with the old and in with the new. This phrase often suggests that for one to move forward, they must forget the past. This mentality can sometimes cause societies to be at odds when progress and planning meet historic preservation. Currently on the city’s North Side, longtime Syracuse developer Tino Marcoccia is working to do away with the old to construct the new. His proposal: demolish 425 N. State St., home of San Miguel Mexican Restaurant, and build a multi-story complex that features room for office space, retail, a restaurant and apartments. Marcoccia has owned the building since 2003, and states he has put nearly $250,000 into the property over the last 16 years. With the property in working condition and home to a functioning restaurant, many community residents were surprised when news came that Marcoccia had announced his intent to demolish the structure. The most surprised? The Angeloro family, who own and operate Francesca’s Cucina, a popular Italian restaurant that sits less than a half-mile away from Marcoccia’s property. The Angeloros have had a presence in the North Side eatery scene since the early 1890s when Angelo Angeloro first moved to the area from Italy. If you glance up at 425 N. State St., you’ll see a con-

BY DAVID HAAS crete plate directly in the middle of the brick façade that reads “A. Angeloro, June 1904,” along with a picture of a keg. According to George Angeloro Sr., his great-grandfather Angelo originally operated a grocery store on the land in question but uprooted and moved the structure to make way for the four-story brick building that is currently planned for demolition. Originally constructed as a “tide house,” a public bar that is contracted to sell a specific beer, the building also served Italian immigrants who were moving to the region by providing comfort and a place to stay on its upper floors. “It saddens our family to hear the news,” says George. “I’m not sure why a functioning restaurant located in what appears to be a building in good condition would be demolished.” That thought was echoed by many others on a @SyracuseHistory Instagram post that noted the developer’s intent. One comment stated, “The mindset of replacing old buildings with new saddens me, especially when it involves a building like this. Anything that may replace it will never have this kind of character.” Another poster wrote, “I can guarantee there isn’t a single developer in this town right now that would replace this beauty with anything worth building,” If you talk with Marcoccia, however, he will sum up

his reasoning for demolition with one short sentence: “The building has served its purpose.” Marcoccia has nearly 50 years of experience working as a developer and says he has often received pushback on projects. “These projects are difficult in this city,” Marcoccia says. “You always have someone who is against you.” Marcoccia references his most well-known project at the corner of James Street and Midler Avenue. Once known as a blighted empty intersection in the mid2000s, Marcoccia renovated the former Steak and Sundae building located at 3001 James St. and developed a new Kinney’s Drugs store across the street. Marcoccia states that these projects added approximately $44,000 to the city’s tax base. In order to complete the project, Marcoccia had to elicit the support of the Common Council to amend a zoning law and push the project through. “People put me through hell for that project,” Marcoccia recalls. “I met resistance from every corner.” Marcoccia describes his new project as a “transformation.” His proposal would span most of the 400 block of North State Street — an easy decision as the adjacent empty lots are also his property. A quick view of a 2011 Google Maps image capture shows two additional buildings that Marcoccia has demolished in recent

years. “Once my project is completed, sales tax will increase, property tax will increase and for that reason, I expect the community to stand behind me and my decisions,” he says. Not everyone is standing behind Marcoccia just yet. The Preservation Association of Central New York (PACNY) has put forth an application to designate 425 N. State St. as a protected site. This designation would need approval by the Common Council, but doesn’t necessarily stop the demolition. Demolition of a commercial property requires a Project Site Review by the city. And if the property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, located in a historic district or is a locally protected site, then the project would require review by the Syracuse Landmark Preservation Board, who could potentially block the demolition. Grant Johnson, a PACNY board member, states, “We are not anti-development; we advocate for what makes the most sense for the overall community.” In this case, Johnson explains how historic tax credits could assist the effort to both develop the block and save the building. “We want to work with Marcoccia to the fullest extent that he wants to work with us,” Johnson notes. “Through education and communication we can make a challenging process easier.” Marcoccia doesn’t see it that way, however. He recently requested the Syracuse Landmark Preservation Board to pull their application to designate the structure as a protected site. “People need to recognize progress,” he says. “It’s time to move on.” When asked why he believes the structure cannot be utilized in a proposed plan, Marcoccia states that the construction of an underground parking lot does not allow the property to remain standing. He also says that he intends to find a new home for the San Miguel Mexican Restaurant.

For a neighborhood that recently lost four structures on the 700 block of North Salina Street in a fire last summer, losing another building that emphasizes the character of a historic neighborhood is tough to swallow. “Progress and development is great, but it shouldn’t destroy the fabric of a neighborhood,” says Johnson. Historically responsible development has long been a battle cry of many Syracuse residents who wish to keep the fabric of their neighborhoods. In 1934, at the encouragement of then-Mayor Rolland Marvin, the city of Syracuse paid to have a 100-year-old structure moved

to the corner of James and North Warren streets. Marvin wanted to transform the building in a public setting to show the citizens of Syracuse a real-time example of a restoration project — that older buildings could be put to use. Shelia Weed, a longtime Syracuse architect who is working on the proposed project with Marcoccia, says the decision to restore or demolish the building at 425 N. State St. has her “torn.” Having worked with Marcoccia on a number of projects, she understands his thinking, “He has been working toward this goal for several years and has a specific vision” she remarks. “Being an architect is sometimes hard. You don’t always agree with your clients, and in this case, do I want the building gone? No.” Weed can make recommendations, but ultimately, if the city allows, Marcoccia can demolish 425 N. State St. and move forward with his plan. “If the building stays, I’ll embrace it. If not, I’ll attempt to salvage pieces of the structure. I’ll try to flip it inside out,” Weed says, explaining that the unique exterior components of the building could perhaps be utilized in the building’s restaurant for people to see. The line between restricting development and preserving history is a tough one, but one our community has to walk together. Grant hopes that in the future PACNY is more proactive in their efforts to encourage the city to review buildings for historic designation that will help avoid situations such as this. As an organization led by volunteers, however, PACNY can only do so much. Each year the organization releases a list of threatened properties; “8 that can’t wait” was the theme in 2018. Calls for 2019 nominations will begin this spring. It’s unlikely that the Angeloro building will be listed, but even so, developer Marcoccia will have to fight once more for what he believes is the best course of action for his property. One can only be hopeful that the two entities can work together to achieve a positive outcome for the community at large.
