Cobblestone School has closed after 32 years. I was involved there from the start and want to share lessons that might be learned from Cobblestone’s legacy, so different from the prevailing milieu of state-mandated teacher evaluations and standardized testing and curriculum. Cobblestone School was founded in 1983 by three women — its co-directors as well as its first teachers — determined to create a school where teachers as well as children could thrive. Over the years, the school grew from 20 students in a rented church basement to 160 students on its own stately campus. The school was based in its daily practice as well as in its principles on the progressive educational philosophy of John Dewey. Cobblestone encouraged learning for its own sake, for understanding and meaning, not as preparation for the next grade or the next test or some arbitrary skill set. Cobblestone was the only local elementary school committed to having its students design their own curriculum based on their questions and interests. Cobblestone stressed that children develop at different rates, and provided time and space for each child to grow intellectually, socially, and emotionally. Each student’s growth was assessed for itself, not in comparison to other students. Evaluation was viewed as part of the learning process, conducted through teachers’ careful observations, performance reviews, and students’ ongoing self-assessment, rather than standardized tests. Teacher evaluation, too, was conducted through ongoing observations, peer and parent assessments, and self-assessments, rather than by state-mandated tests. Agendas for weekly teacher
meetings and professional development sessions were drawn from teachers’ stated needs, rather than from management mandates. In later years, Cobblestone’s teachers further empowered themselves by organizing their own union — unique among local private schools. None of this was easy, especially in the face of relentless pressure to abandon these progressive practices for more accepted standardized curriculum and instruction. Inevitably there were internal conflicts as well, so it took arduous effort to stay the course. But Cobblestone School did indeed stay the course for 32 years — a tribute to everyone involved and an example for us all. DOUG NOBLE
Co-founder and longtime teacher coordinator at Cobblestone
Stop, and you won’t get a ticket
Just stop already! Seriously, I do not understand why people are against the red-light cameras. I have lived in the city since 1983 and have never gotten a ticket, before or since the cameras. My secret: I stop at stoplights. When in doubt, stop sooner, while it’s still yellow. It could save your life or someone else’s life. Wake up! How could you live with yourself if you cause another person to break his bones, suffer a concussion, or die just so you could save a few seconds? You would endure mental anguish forever! I wish there was a way to put red-light cameras on stop signs. Every single day on Meigs Street between Rockingham Street and South Clinton Avenue, I see someone racing through a stop sign, even right across from a playground full of children at Linden. Why is it hard to give up a few seconds of your life to be safer? Just stop! ELAINE HEVERON
More activities needed for youth In response to a story about whether Rochester will get a skatepark. Why does the city
continually refuse to create viable positive activities for our youth? I know skating crosses generations, but it’s born in the hearts of our
young and practiced to an art as a teen. Aren’t they the group that needs positive activities more than any? C’mon, City of Rochester, quit failing your youth! JENNIFER WAGNER
Could’ve (should’ve) been built in the underutilized, below-grade area of MLK Jr. park a long time ago. Quite frankly, that’s still where it should be built. Shameful, indeed. Get moving, City of Rochester! J
About trains hauling volatile crude oil through the area. Living less
than a quarter-mile from the CSX tracks, I shudder each day when I hear the oil trains go through. These trains are heavy and have quite a different sound. It’s not grandpa’s clickety-clack anymore! When I drive into the city each Sunday and go under the railroad overpass on the Inner Loop near Plymouth, I sigh a big relief there is no train above me. The bridges look to be in terrible condition, and it certainly causes one to wonder, how much longer will they hold up? Crude oil trains from the Bakken are a serious danger to every community along the transport route. For what benefit? Oh right, corporate profit. BARBARA BOYCE
Misguided priorities
We spent millions on a failed fast ferry, the county spends more to house animals at the zoo than it spends to help house the homeless, and we let a local theater group help fund a study to see if we need a new performing arts center. Something really stinks in all this. TOM JANOWSKI
School choice ruins neighborhoods
There are no neighborhood kids at Francis Parker anymore. They are all bused in from other neighborhoods. When I grew up here, there was no busing kids here and there. When my kids were going to school at 46, the RSCD told us that my daughter had a 60-percent chance of walking to school with her brothers. I don’t live in that neighborhood anymore. Busing kids around is a great way to ruin neighborhoods, and burn gas. FRATER

URBAN JOURNAL | BY MARY ANNA TOWLER
It’s politics as usual: Bill Reilich’s class act None of us should be shocked, I guess, at the level to which some politicians will sink. Nonetheless, I was surprised at the statement Republican chair Bill Reilich sent out last week when his Democratic counterpart, Dave Garretson, announced that he was resigning. Garretson had said he’s leaving because of “personal concerns regarding health and family.” Here’s Reilich’s response, which Republican Party headquarters helpfully e-mailed to the media: “The primary role of any Chairman is to unify the party, generate financial support and most of all – win elections. Given Mr. Garretson’s failure to make substantial progress in any of these aspects, it’s no surprise that his brief tenure as Chairman has come to an end. “While the Democratic Committee continues to spin its wheels, the Monroe County Republican Committee and its 2015 slate of candidates led by County Executive candidate Cheryl Dinolfo, are firing on all cylinders. “Our strong leadership and commitment to lower taxes and job growth are ideas all voters can get behind regardless of party affiliation. I’m confident our Republican team has the right message and our momentum will carry us to decisive victories on Election Day.” I can think of only two reasons Reilich would do such a thing: he doesn’t believe Garretson is ill or he doesn’t care. Anybody who has been watching local politics lately knows what a sad state the Democratic Party is in. Heading into a huge local election, the party has almost no money. Its popular district attorney jumped ship and is running as a Republican. The Democrats haven’t found a high-profile candidate to run against her. And the party is deeply divided, including along racial lines – fallout from the 2013 Democratic primary, when Lovely Warren beat thenMayor Tom Richards. Rather than uniting behind Warren at that point, a predominantly white group of Richards backers tried unsuccessfully to mount a Richards challenge against her in the general election. That rift hasn’t healed. And Warren, whose support is by no means limited to the black community, has built a good relationship with County Executive Maggie Brooks, so there’s probably not much incentive for her to help the party try to defeat the Republicans’ candidate to succeed Brooks, Cheryl Dinolfo.
Either the local Republican Party’s leader doesn’t believe that his Democratic counterpart is ill or he doesn’t care.”
(It’s no small matter that Warren’s fundraising dwarfs that of the Democratic Party and the Democratic candidate for county executive, Sandy Frankel.) Against that background, then, we have Bill Reilich’s gloating reaction to a fellow politician’s troubles. Reilich and his party control the county. He had nothing to lose by taking Garretson at his word, expressing sympathy, and wishing him and his family well. On the contrary, doing so would have been good for him, for his party, and for the community. Instead, Reilich has given us gutter politics. That few people will be surprised is an indication of how low the state of politics has sunk in the eyes of the average voter. In elections around the country – most especially in the current lead-up to the 2016 presidential campaign – public offices are for sale. And the highest court in the land has endorsed that practice. In Albany, the former leaders of the Assembly and the Senate are facing federal corruption charges. The trial began last week for the deputy majority leader of the Senate, who also faces federal corruption charges. And the head of a major political party in Rochester throws spitballs when the head of the other party says illness is causing him to step down. Is there any reason for people to vote? Any reason for them to participate in political campaigns? Any reason to think we can attract honorable people to run for public office? This city and this county are facing serious challenges. We need a healthy political system, with honorable people representing diverse constituencies and views. That the Democratic Party is in serious trouble shouldn’t please any of us. rochestercitynewspaper.com

Because of the project’s size and the site’s location in a preservation district, the development is controversial. The George Eastman House sued to stop the project.
Rochester City Council rushed to pass legislation last week to study a new downtown performing arts center because the city wants to take advantage of a state funding program. If the study says that the center is feasible, the city may be able to get funding for at least part of the project through Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Upstate Revitalization Initiative

Would a new downtown theater need an operating subsidy? RBTL Chair Arnie Rothschild doesn’t think so. FILE PHOTO
The high-stakes competition will award $500 million each to three regions in Upstate New York. Regions have to submit their revitalization plans, including a list of the projects they want funded, by October 5. Downtown revitalization is emerging as a key theme of the competition, so a downtown theater project could be a good fit. Among the areas that the study will look at is the affordability of a theater and its potential economic impact. Talk of a new performing arts center, of course, has been around for decades. But politics and finances have prevented a project from ever getting off the ground. A big stumbling block is the belief by many that the theater would require an operating subsidy. That belief kept former Rochester mayor Tom Richards from fighting for
the theater. Richards says that it would likely fall to the city to subsidize the facility, but that’s unfair because the theater would benefit the entire region. Arnie Rothschild, chair of the Rochester Broadway Theatre League, says that he believes the new study will show that the theater would not run a deficit. People who say that the theater would need a subsidy are using “Renaissance Square math,” he says. A study of the theater portion of the unsuccessful theater-transit stationMCC project showed the facility running a deficit. But a subsequent study, commissioned by RBTL in 2010, did not call for a subsidy, Rothschild says. That study had the theater at Midtown. RBTL would likely be the anchor tenant of the new theater, he says.

Local Dems in big trouble For years, Monroe County Democrats have been feuding their way toward trouble, and now they may be facing the consequences. Monroe County Democratic Committee Chair David Garretson is stepping down at the end of the month because of “personal concerns regarding health and family,” he said in a press release. He’s only held the job since September. But turnover at the top is only part of Democrats’ problem: the party is heading into a big local election year and it’s almost broke. Last week, campaigns and political parties across the state had to file finance reports for the first six months of 2015. MCDC reported that it has approximately $62,000 in the bank — the lowest firsthalf balance reported by the party in at least a decade — the State Board of Elections doesn’t have filings prior to 2006 available online. The less cash the party has on hand, the less it has to spend on important contests, such as the county executive’s race. “We’re going to be focused on that, definitely,” says MCDC Vice Chair Jim Vogel. “We’re going to come out of this all right. I’m confident of that.” County Democrats brought in $118,019 between mid-January and mid-July — about half of what the party typically pulls in over the first half of the year.
Right now, the county Republican Party has a massive cash advantage. The GOP has $503,906 in its campaign account and brought in $359,551 over the first half of the year. County Democrats typically raise less money than Republicans, but the disparity shown in last week’s campaign finance filings is unusual. Some Democrats blame Garretson for the party’s depleted account. One of the key jobs of the chair is fund raising, and when Garretson came into the job, some of his critics say, he didn’t have relationships with many of the party’s bigger contributors. As a result, those donors probably weren’t confident that their money would be used wisely or effectively, they say. And Garretson didn’t recruit established, higher-profile Dems to reach out to donors, they say, which might have reassured donors and brought in some cash. Garretson did not return calls for comment. And top party officials haven’t stepped in to help the flailing committee. Mayor Lovely

Warren, for example, brought in $225,105 during the first half of the year, and had $371,529 in her account as of last week’s filing. And former chair and State Assembly Majority Leader Joe Morelle raised $176,200 over the first half of the year, and as of last week’s filing had $423,584 in the bank. Right now, no party members have stepped up to say they’d like to be the next chair. But one name has been advanced as a possible candidate: MCDC executive director Jamie Romeo. She declined comment on this story. Romeo is a former campaign worker and chief of staff for former State Senator Ted O’Brien, and she has fund-raising experience and relationships that could help the party, some Democrats say. The MCDC will meet on July 29 to choose a new chair.
Poverty plan Leaders of the Rochester-Monroe Anti-Poverty Initiative held a town hall meeting last week to gather input from the people who live in poverty and the agencies that serve them. Their experiences can inform the work of the initiative, and their input will help direct the task force’s work, said Leonard Brock, the initiative’s director. The crowd split up into eight subgroups focused on jobs and workforce development, education, health and nutrition, housing, the justice system, child care, transportation, and safe neighborhoods. The groups developed lists of several dozen concerns and recommendations. The education station received the most interest by far, and it generated a lengthy list of issues and suggestions. They ranged from ending social promotion, increasing access to job and vocational training for students, increasing teacher diversity and developing culturally relevant curriculum, integrating child care with the education system, teaching students life skills such as financial literacy, and increasing parental involvement in schools. Brock said that he isn’t surprised by the interest in education, since it goes hand in hand with poverty. “It’s holistic,” he said. “Education is not solely the responsibility of K-12 educational leaders.” The initiative expects to issue an initial report by the end of the month.

Mention James Lawrence, the former longtime editor of the Democrat and Chronicle’s opinion page, and you’ll likely get a wide range of reactions. Lawrence, who retired from the D&C six months ago, became something of an iconic media figure in Rochester. Almost every high-level city, county, school district, and community leader in the area met with Lawrence and the D&C’s editorial board during Lawrence’s 22 years with the paper. And it’s probably safe to say that for many, it didn’t always go swimmingly. Some community leaders who asked not to be identified say that Lawrence didn’t always give them a fair shake. And some D&C critics say that the paper’s editorials under Lawrence were often anemic, and devoted too much attention to lessimportant concerns. Lawrence’s editorials in the mid 2000’s, for example, slammed gangsta rap’s glorification of profanity, the abuse of women, and gang culture. The editorials were seen by some as trivial. Still, whether you were a dedicated Lawrence fan or staunchly disagreed with him, it’s hard to dismiss his influence. In many respects, Lawrence was the principal voice for the largest daily newspaper in the Rochester region. He helped pick the topics and shape the tone of local and regional conversations, whether they took place in the halls of government or the corner diner. Lawrence came of age during the civil rights era and entered journalism when the field was still dominated by white males. While Lawrence doesn’t refer to himself as a pioneer, in many respects he clearly was. Lawrence, like former Rochester mayor Bill Johnson, graduated from Howard University in Washington, DC. He was drawn to journalism, he says, because of his desire to make a difference in the lives of everyday people, especially African Americans. “I’ve always felt this need when it comes to injustice,” he says. “That’s something that gets my blood boiling. As an African American, I’ve seen and been a part of injustices.” He says that he was inspired by the song “Say It Loud (I’m Black and I’m Proud)” by
James Lawrence. PHOTO BY MARK CHAMBERLIN
the late soul legend, James Brown. Released in 1968, the song became an anthem in black culture and has been sampled by numerous artists. Lawrence says that the lyrics gave him a sense of purpose and responsibility. “After going to Howard, it really kind of shaped me for the need to address injustices,” he says. “And this was the way to do it, as a reporter.” Following a stint with a black-owned weekly newspaper, Cleveland Call and Post, Lawrence landed a position as a reporter with United Press International. He applied for the job while he was in New York City in 1973 reviewing a movie. To his surprise, UPI hired him, but the job was in Denver, Colorado. Lawrence says that he remembers wondering, “Are there black people in Denver?” While he jokingly says that he and his wife, Betty, became full-fledged Westerners, donning cowboy boots and the like, it was in Denver with UPI that Lawrence says that he was challenged as a writer and as an African American.
After growing up in the segregated south and attending segregated schools, Lawrence says, “This was really my first foray into really even knowing white people.” Though Lawrence covered mainly sports and politics, UPI also presented other opportunities. “I remember in Denver writing my first story that dealt with Kwanzaa,” he says. “I felt as though I was not only reporting, but I was also educating the public about black culture.” Lawrence says that he doesn’t know how readers responded to his work because UPI reporters competed to get their stories picked up by editors across the country. And reader feedback wasn’t nearly as immediate as it is today. Readers may not have even known that he’s African American, he says, although he says he never viewed himself as a black writer. “I viewed myself as a writer with a great deal of black consciousness — someone who was very, very cognizant of racial issues and concerns,” Lawrence says.
But that may not have always been the way that his colleagues viewed him; he says that he was often called upon to give the “black perspective.” “Sometimes I resented it because you know black people are not monolithic,” Lawrence says. “I resented the fact if you thought you could just simply come to me and get my perspective, and then you were covered as far as black people are concerned. There’s diversity among people who are diverse, and I think that escapes a lot of people.” Transitioning from reporter to editor, first at the Orlando Sentinel and eventually at the D&C, gave Lawrence more opportunity to address what he says he saw happening in urban America. When community leaders met with the editorial board, Lawrence says he made a point of asking “what about” questions. For instance, when a proposal for a new sports stadium in Orlando caused considerable excitement, Lawrence raised concerns about how gentrification would impact the mostly poor residents who lived near the site. And he says that the D&C did more than just passively report job losses when it came to Rochester’s economic woes or its stark demographic changes. “I can’t tell you the number of editorials we’ve written about the importance of the city to the entire region, why we must keep the city strong, why we can’t afford a doughnut configuration at the center,” he says. And he says that the paper’s Unite Rochester series — which he is especially proud of — is intentionally designed to provoke discussion about the economic, social, and racial differences in Rochester. “There are two Rochesters, probably three or four,” Lawrence says. “The issue really boils down to the haves and have nots. It’s not unique to Rochester.” He says he is surprised that even though the minority population in the US is growing, that some media have been slow to embrace diversity. He attended a conference on the future of journalism and community engagement recently, and an editor there admitted that there are no people of color in his newsroom. “This is 2015,” Lawrence says. “That was disturbing, and I told him so.” He says that despite recent events such as the shooting in Charleston, South Carolina, that left nine black churchgoers dead, the will to tackle the tough issues of race and social injustice isn’t there yet. “I hoped [through my work] to leave a better community, a better world for my children and grandchildren, and I’m not sure that’s occurred,” he says. “I didn’t really expect at the end of my journalism career to find not only in this community, but across the country, the persistence of these injustices.”

Vive Bistro and Bakery uses some creativity to put a French twist on vegan dishes, such as (left) the blanc socca pissa with confit garlic and ricotta; (middle) a cheese plate that uses soy and cashews; and (right) Croquettes de la Mer, which resemble crab cakes. PHOTOS BY MARK CHAMBERLIN
Comment dites-on ‘Plant Powered’? Vive Bistro and Bakery 130 EAST AVENUE LUNCH: DAILY, 11 A.M. TO 3 P.M. DINNER: TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, 5 P.M. TO 9 P.M.; AND FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, 5 P.M. TO 10 P.M. 481-2021; VIVEBISTRO.COM [ REVIEW ] BY LAURA REBECCA KENYON
French cuisine is not usually vegan. Pates, tartares, cheeses? It’s just a tasty, Gallic parade of well-prepared animals and their byproducts. But Vive Bistro and Bakery asserts that food can be both French and vegan. While the preparation might not be completely faithful to its French lineage, the food remains satisfying. The bistro’s pates are made with wild mushrooms; cheeses are derived from nuts or soy; and tartars are composed of garden vegetables and fresh herbs. The menu’s choices let you eat light or settle in for a hearty meal, complete with drinks and dessert. Included in the smaller plates are tartines ($2.75 each or 4 for $10), which are petite, open-faced sandwiches. In
one version, mashed avocado is paired not with lime, but sections of red grapefruit: The fruit is a touch sweeter than lime, and the result is light and refreshing. Another tartine pairs heaps of Vive’s bleu cheese with sweet port-infused cherries. If you don’t think vegan food can taste rich and voluptuous, this will change your mind. Vive’s cheese plate ($18) features three, house-made vegan cheeses: boursin, brie, and bleu. The boursin (made from soy) is herbal and creamy, and the bleu cheese (using cashew) has a touch of funk and ample bluegreen hue. The brie (another using soy) pulls off the most interesting trompe l’oeil with a waxy, edible rind, and a soft, but not runny, interior. These cheeses won’t be mistaken for their dairy cousins (they aren’t as fatty or lush), but they are delightful in their own way. This is especially true when spread on the crostini, which tastes as though it had a sexy, menage a trois with garlic and olive oil — in other words: delicious. Adding color and complexity are glazed nuts, and figs in a balsamic vinegar and port wine syrup. After all the cheese, nuts, and figs had been eaten, my husband and I dragged
our bread through the syrup, soaking up every, deeply-colored drop. Vive’s poutine ($10) should not be missed. It starts with thinly-cut potatoes fried until crispy and brown. The gravy is deeply flavored and oniony, with tender strips of caramelized onions throughout. Dollops of smoked vegan mozzarella relax with the gravy’s heat. Though it doesn’t turn into long, pullable strings like cheese curds do, it does melt down and pool into the gravy. It’s my new, favorite Rochester poutine. Socca Pissas ($13-$14.50) are round chickpea flat breads piled with toppings — basically a French pizza. The socca is golden yellow, like ground turmeric, with crispy edges, and the middle is softer under the weight of toppings. Its flavor is neutral but if eaten without any accompaniment, there’s a just a hint of bean flavor. The Blanc ($13.50) loads the socca with confit garlic, caramelized onion, artichokes and ricotta. The onions were pleasantly sweet and rich, though the garlic’s flavor was too muted — an extra sprinkling of salt would have made the flavors pop.
Croquettes de la Mer ($15) are Vive’s take on crab cakes. Two croquettes with a crispy, deeply golden-brown crust sandwich diced root vegetables. On the plate was a ribbon of sweet, red pepper rouille. Breaking into the croquette, the inside even looked like it’s made with lump crab meat (owing to hearts of palm). No, there is not a taste of the ocean, but then, many crab cakes don’t have that anyway. Despite a growing vegan restaurant scene, some diners still shy away. To ease the minds of the vegan-phobic, Vive refers to itself as “100-percent plant powered.” But it shouldn’t be surprising that vegan preparations can appeal to wide audiences. Vive’s kitchen doesn’t turn out 20 slightly different takes on root vegetables, but instead, creates lots of appealing renditions of dishes that are not typically vegan. Are they exactly the same as the originals? No. Are they worth your time? Yes.

Garden Vibes: Jayme Stone’s Lomax Project.
After being blown away by the wondrous music of Omer Avital at the Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival, I had to check out “New Song” to see if the energy of the group’s live performance could translate to a recording. This joyous album overwhelmingly proves that it can. With Avital on bass; Yonathan Avishai, piano; Joel Frahm, saxophone, and Daniel Freedman, drums, it’s almost the same lineup as Avital’s great jazz festival band. The only difference is the crisp trumpet of Avishai Cohen instead of a second sax, but there is no difference in the exuberant sound. Avital’s oeuvre is an extraordinarily successful example of what can happen when jazz fuses with world music. Raised in Israel, with Yemenite and Moroccan parents, Avital has come up with an irresistible hybrid combining Arabic music, Sephardic Jewish melodies, ancient Andalusian music, and 1950’s-era American jazz. Songs, with names like “Bedouin Roots,” “Yemen Suite,” and “New Middle East,” work together beautifully as if they are movements of a single grand composition. The fast tunes are infectious, and the mid-tempo songs and ballads are nothing short of gorgeous. This is new music for a true global village. — BY RON NETSKY

AUDIO
Everyone goes bananas over genre-busting bands. But what about those that identify with nothing but their own sound? Bands that are secure in their tone and attack to the point that apparent or obvious influence simply rolls off their backs. Rochester’s Axis Armada falls between the cracks while celebrating the cracks on this new self-titled endeavor. The band jams between acoustic and electric notions but doesn’t clog the pallet by deftly delivering beginnings and ends to the corpulent middle. Recorded in Farmington and mixed in LA, this is a quality platter that rocks steady and smooth start to finish. — BY FRANK DE BLASE

Rochester musician Tommy Brunett keeps whiskey in the glasses and rock ‘n’ roll in the gut Tommy Brunett FOR MORE ABOUT BRUNETT’S MUSIC VISIT TOMMYBRUNETT.COM. FOR INFORMATION ON IRON SMOKE WHISKEY, CHECK OUT IRONSMOKEWHISKEY.COM [ MUSIC PROFILE ] BY FRANK DE BLASE
You stroll past towering tanks outside on your way into Iron Smoke Distillery’s 10,000-square-foot digs in Fairport and you’re immediately assailed by the smell of corn mash and the sounds associated with the fermentation process as the door opens. The shop dog, Otto, gives you the lazy once over. Forklifts whizz by; men in big rubber boots man the still; and barrels of whiskey line the walls like an Irish man’s wet dream. The whole place hums like the North Pole during the November toy crunch.
In walks Tommy Brunett, rock ‘n’ roller and whiskey man. Now, one might think having a rocker run a distillery is like letting the monkeys run the zoo, but Brunett is a study in lanky cool and balance as he juggles music and whiskey. And to better understand the man, you need to understand what he does and who he is: Brunett, along with several partners, is Iron Smoke Whiskey, and he, along with assorted musicians, is the Tommy Brunett Band.

12 CITY JULY 22-28, 2015
Brunett’s rock ‘n’ roll is a low-down, badass blast of American roots and fun. It’s full of a gunslinger’s cocksure swagger, attitude, and innovation — funny, the same can be said for his Iron Smoke Whiskey. Iron Smoke is a whiskey with a bourbon four grain mash bill. It’s whiskey alright, with smoky overtones, but just ask Brunett: it ain’t bourbon. “We don’t call it bourbon,” he says. “We’re purists and don’t want to call it a bourbon unless it’s aged at least two years. It just wouldn’t feel right.” Iron Smoke does have a bourbon on deck due to launch sometime in 2017 as well as a barbeque sauce and a whiskey barrel-aged beer duet with the folks over at Genesee Brewery. And just as rock ‘n’ roll has time honored traditions along with a set of rules to be broken, so does whiskey. It all starts with an impulse, an idea, or in this case, three chords and the proof. “I’ve been a fan of whiskey all my life,” Brunett says. “I drank a lot of it. Then about five years ago, I got this idea for a smoked whiskey.” To Brunett, this made perfect sense — a serendipitous collision. “I was like, ‘Why hasn’t anybody tried this?’” he says. “’It’s a great idea.’ So we started experimenting in the back yard with the smoker. Then we moved on to a still. It was trial and error for about a year and a half with small barrels. We tried nine recipes to get the recipe we’ve got now aging in virgin white oak barrels.” Brunett and his partners flew under the radar “Breaking Bad” style before leasing space in Seneca Falls, then ultimately moving to the former American Can plant in Fairport where we find them today. “It’s all legal now,’” he says. “And now bourbon is exploding. We just got into it to do it. We didn’t know market trends or anything.” But a rock ‘n’ roller making smoked whiskey? “Some people laughed in the beginning,” Brunett says. But he knew he was onto something. “When it first came out,” he says. “I asked our distributor, ‘What if we sell out?’ And he said, ‘I’ve been in this business 30 years. You’ll never sell out. Get that out of your mind.’ Two weeks later, he was like, ‘I don’t know what’s happening.’” The first batch — 166 cases — debuted regionally in November 2013 and sold out rapidamente. Subsequent batches two, three, and four sold out as well. Stores couldn’t keep Iron Smoke Whiskey on their shelves. The brand’s skeletal mascot, Skully, was everywhere, grinning his approval. The demand got increasingly torqued, and the Iron Smoke bizz-buzz started bizz-buzzing. The blogosphere blew up and cats like Billy Gibbons gave it the thumbs up, “Adding juice to the juice” according to Brunett.
So to satisfy demand, Iron Smoke put out Rattlesnake Rosie’s Apple Pie Whiskey. As Brunett explains, it’s more of a moonshine type product that doesn’t require aging. “That’s because it’s corn whiskey mixed with cider,” he says. “Our distiller had an awesome recipe and everybody fell in love with it.” But don’t let the apple pie flavor or Rosie’s pretty countenance on the bottle deceive you. As the label promises, it’s delicious and sinful. “Well, it’s 70 proof,” Brunett says. “It’ll roll your socks up and down. It tastes just like apple pie. That’s the dangerous part.” Meanwhile back in the jungle … There’s
still rock ‘n’ roll to render as well. Brunett’s been hard at work penning tunes for the follow up to his excellent twang-a-fied release, “Hell or High Water,” a beautifully well-worn slice of American music. He had tried for years to get this sound out of his head and onto the stage. But finding musicians who got it, or at least tried to get it, proved tough. Brunett forged ahead, filling in the gaps and shouldering the brunt of the work this hybrid created. He endured. The result is a denim and dirt sound that’s part Johnny Cash resolve and stoicism mixed with a dash of contemporary flash and kerrang. “It’s just American rock ‘n’ roll with old school country,” he says. “I sing because I got sick of singers — and I can’t even sing that great. I went and did it my way. I guess I’ve got character. I don’t know how big an audience I’ll ever have. I love the rush, I love playing, I love the band; it sounds great. I don’t want to ever lose that. So I’ll keep on making records, not paying attention to trends. Same with the whiskey: I didn’t go after it because it was a trend.” At 50 years old, Brunett is aware rock ‘n’ roll can be a young man’s game. “With rock ‘n’ roll, I’m not a spring chicken,” he says. “The more it tries to throw me off, the tighter I hold on.” In a way, Brunett has got it made in the shade. But there are responsibilities; people are counting on him. “We made this out of a love and passion for artisan stuff,” he says. “Supporting local agriculture, our farmers are our friends. All of our grains come from family owned farms in the Finger Lakes Region,” he says. “In fact we give our stripped mash grains back to the farmers to feed their livestock. “People say, ‘You make whiskey and you make music; that’s the Holy Grail.’ But I get up at 6 o’clock in the morning. When I’m not at the distillery I’m at the distillery in my head.” His time is split 60/60 between the two endeavors. “It’s probably more than that,” Brunett says. “I’ve got a great opportunity and a lot of people depending on me to do the right thing.”
So choose one …“I can’t,” he says, laughing at the suggestion. He’s also quick to dismiss the Holy Grail comparison, opting for a more Blessed Trinity type of thing — whiskey, band, family — with his wife and two boys coming out on top of it all. “The biggest thing I do is keep cereal in the bowls,” he says. And whiskey in the glasses, plus rock ‘n’ roll in the guts. Iron Smoke is now being distributed in Texas. Next stop: New York City this fall. Brunett is almost done writing material for the new record and plans on hitting the studio to lay it down in the next few months. He hopes to have it hit store shelves by Christmas. Whiskey and rock ‘n’ roll. The attitude they espouse and their superlatives are universally interchangeable; the whiskey mellow and strong, the music intoxicating. Neither is for lightweights. Both offer a little intimidation. Brunett elucidates. “They’re both so similar, it’s crazy,” he says “It’s a rock ‘n’ roll brand. We’re not selling Bibles. We’re selling whiskey, along with the rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle. You’ve got to be a little bit dangerous or no one cares.”

JAZZ | MARK KELLOGG AND TONY CARAMIA
The sheer power and seduction in Shakey Graves’s music is staggering. And he’s one guy. Graves plays minimal drums — tambourine and kick using his feet, while his digits dance the fret floor. His songs are stark, yet provocative calling to mind the late Chris Whitley in his approach and anything and everything cool in his attack. It’s downright haunting.
You may know Mark Kellogg as principal trombonist of the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra but he also has extensive jazz experience, having shared the stage with Clark Terry, Wynton Marsalis, and many others. Fellow Eastman School of Music professor Tony Caramia, a pianist specializing in the Great American Songbook, has been featured on Marian McPartland’s Piano Jazz. When they form a duo at Hatch Recital Hall, they’ll be exploring the music of Frank Loesser, composer of “Guys and Dolls,” “Most Happy Fella,” and other great shows.

PSYCHEDELIC PUNK | YONATAN GAT
Yonatan Gat was the guitarist for Israel’s Monotonix, one of the most insane, in your face bands I’ve ever seen. When the band played the Bug Jar, the audience held the entire band aloft, over their heads. When the band was on the floor with the crowd it set its drums on fire. Not sure about the pyro, but Gat furthers the tantrum with a brutal yet beautiful wash of music, and noise. It’ll kick your butt.

TOP: New York City-based graffiti artist Daze (a returning artist from 2013) finished his first mural at 646 Joseph Avenue, which depicts a young woman that the artist says is based on a photograph, but modified through sketches. He says that he wanted to represent people in the neighborhood, but not depict any one person specifically. Local artists Ephraim Gebre and Kokenas Singletary, who have helped Shawn Dunwoody in his uplifting street art projects around town, had the opportunity to assist Daze in laying down some of the color. Daze began a second mural with members of FUA Krew on Tuesday. PHOTO BY JEREMY MOULE
LEFT: Brooklyn-based Canadian artist Li-Hill constructed an easter-egg installation in an undisclosed location, in which two deer made of stretcher bars, cardboard, and paint face off in front of a Quonset hut, surrounded by urban overgrowth.

WALL\THERAPY 2015 opened on Friday night, July 17, with a reception for “IMPACT!,” an exhibition of work by each of this year’s featured artists at 1975 Gallery (89 Charlotte Street). And though the heat has been pretty oppressive during the early portion of the nine-day festival, a few of the artists have banged out one mural and are onto the next. Here you’ll find shots of some of the completed or in-progress outdoor work. Many more images as well as interviews, artist bios, and related event coverage can be found on our site by clicking on the WALL\THERAPY page on our site at rochestercitynewspaper.com.

ABOVE: Switzerland-based duo NEVERCREW create dreamy, fantastical scenes with hyperreal and seemingly weightless whales, often calmly caught between natural and mechanical elements. The two artists, Christian Rebecchi and Pablo Togni, are painting one of their iconic whales at 14 Capron Street. PHOTO BY JEREMY MOULE
LEFT: Switzerland-based artists Onur and Wes21 work on a mural that wraps the back walls of a building at 880 East Main Street. The duo typically create murals with an object as the subject, but here they experiment with more emphasis on the environment, setting a mythic scene of nature striking back against a dominant species. The two have been working on walls together for about seven years, and each maintains his own studio practice, but when they collaborate, their styles meld so seamlessly it seems like the work of a third artist entirely.

ART | IMPLIED SCIENCE AT NTID
Glass artist Michael Taylor (artwork pictured), whose work will be featured in a dual exhibit in the Lyndon Baines Johnson Hall at RIT, says he is “fascinated with the mechanical complexity and visual abstractions of scientific apparatus that are within my grasp to simulate.” Taylor, who once led RIT’s glass art program until his retirement in 2000, is best known for geometric glass sculptures, the result of this fascination. Painter Gary Morse, whose paintings will make up the other half of the exhibit, creates abstract characters out of acrylic in an effort “to remove any literal aspects and create a background using color set in motion.” The dual exhibit runs through August 28 at the NTID Dyer Arts Center, 52 Lomb Memorial Drive.

[ PREVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW
Each year, hundreds of films are released into theaters in the United States (nearly 700 in 2014, according to the records at Box Office Mojo), encompassing everything from giant blockbusters to micro-budgeted indie releases. As Rochesterians, we’re pretty lucky to have some fantastic independent movie theaters which are dedicated to bringing arthouse films to local audiences. Without their efforts, a city our size would typically never get to see those under-the-radar titles that often turn out to be among the year’s best films. Still, with the sheer number flooding the marketplace, it’s impossible for even the best arthouse theaters to show everything, and that unfortunately means a lot of great films have to slip through the cracks. Over the next few weeks, The Dryden Theatre will be doing its part to make that number just a tiny bit smaller. Every Friday for the remainder of the summer, the Dryden will premiere a new film that hasn’t yet received a theatrical release locally. Challenging and provocative, any
one of the films would make for a welcome antidote to the blockbusters currently competing for your dollars at the multiplex. City Newspaper sat down with the Dryden’s curator of film exhibitions, Jurij Meden, to talk about the lineup. A rural region in the northwest portion of Spain, Galicia has in recent years become an emerging source for interesting filmmaking, including for “Coast of Death,” Lois Patino’s experimental documentary capturing life in an isolated village on the Costa da Morte. With little dialogue, Patino explores the nature and the people of the area, giving audiences a unique sense of place purely through the images he captures. Praising the film’s stunning photography, Meden says the film is first and foremost a sensory experience, providing a noteworthy illustration of the ways “cinema can show us things no other medium can.” (Friday, July 24, 8 p.m.) French filmmaker Bruno Dumont’s deadpan crime comedy “Li’l Quinquin” follows a bumbling detective as he investigates a bizarre murder in a small seaside town in northern France. His ongoing work captures the interest of a local gang of pre-teen troublemakers on summer vacation, and the youngsters get a thorough education in the darker side of human nature. Originally made as a fourpart TV miniseries and later released as a feature, the film is something of a departure for Dumont, who’s most known for heavy, dramatic explorations of spirituality, like
his “Humanité,” “Twentynine Palms,” and “Hadewijch.” His latest is lighter but just as edgy, playing like “a cross between ‘Twin Peaks’ and Buster Keaton or Jerry Lewis.” (Friday, July 31, 8 p.m.) A dusty neo-noir thriller with “a little bit of David Lynch” thrown in, “The Frontier” is the feature debut of director Oren Shai. A young woman on the run from the law decides to lay low by taking a job as a waitress in a motel diner, but she soon stumbles upon a heist plot being carried out by the motley collection of guests. Cue back stabbing, betrayal, and mayhem. The film premiered at SXSW in March, with a release scheduled for sometime next year, but it will be screening in Rochester ahead of its theatrical run. As an added bonus, Shai will be on hand for a Q&A following the film. (Friday, August 7, 8 p.m.) Based on the 1811 suicide pact undertaken by gloomy Romantic poet Heinrich von Kleist and his married friend Henriette Vogel, “Amour Fou” dramatizes the couple’s relationship during their final weeks. Finding the morbid humor beneath the despondent pair’s plight, Austrian writer-director Jessica Hausner turns this twisted tale into a drolly dispassionate love story that seeks to upend our romantic notions of doomed love. (Friday, August 21, 8 p.m.) “Sex and bondage and butterflies” are the subject of British director Peter Strickland’s rapturously reviewed “The Duke of Burgundy.” Exploring the ins and outs of a dominant-submissive relationship with a touch more complexity than “Fifty Shades of Grey,” the film uses the central relationship between a meek housekeeper and her lepidopterologist mistress to tell a relatable and surprisingly funny story about love, commitment, and compromise: everything it takes to make a romantic relationship work, even ones with significantly less role-playing. (Friday, August 28, 8 p.m.; Sunday, August 30, 2 p.m.)

FILM | “COAST OF DEATH”
Spanish director Lois Patino’s “Coast of Death” is a film reveling in visuals far above plot or characters. “Coast of Death” focuses on the eponymous coastal region of Galicia, named for the infamous number of shipwrecks caused by the rocky landscape and stormy weather that plagues the region. The film itself is an experimental documentary, with the landscape as the protagonist. Long, static shots of areas where silhouettes of people in the distance make up much of the visual content, coupled with recordings of locals recounting tales about the coast. The result is a bleak, yet oddly amicable effect, combining the dismal environment with the intimate viewpoints of those who call the place home. “Coast of Death” will play Friday, July 24, at The Dryden Theatre, 900 East Avenue. 8 p.m. $6-$8.

Going into its 24th year, The Native American Dance & Music Festival celebrates the culture and life of America’s indigenous people. Rocker Keith Secola, backed by a trio of local musicians and hoop dancers, and California blues duo Twice as Good will perform. Secola, a member of the Anishinaabe from Cook, Minnesota, has been dubbed by critics as the Native American version of both Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen.

Alongside the music, the festival offers demonstrations of traditional Native pottery making, story-telling, a Native American art market, and educational children’s programming.

THEATER | “BETTE DAVIS AIN’T FOR SISSIES”
Bette Davis, with her signature cigarette in hand and blunt, often cynical acting style, is remembered as one of the most influential actresses of all time. An infamous, and sometimes aggressive perfectionist, another side, little known to the public, is captured in Jessica Sherr’s one-woman show “Bette Davis Ain’t For Sissies.” Taking place on the night of the 1939 Academy Awards, where Davis leaves early following her best actress loss to Vivian Leigh. What follows is an hour of Davis reflecting on life: lost love, old friends, and the struggle to maintain freedom beneath the pressure of the Hollywood system. With sharp wit and humor, Sherr presents a little-known side to Davis; a sensitive, introspective soul in a struggle for independence. “Bette Davis Ain’t For Sissies” runs Friday, July 24, through Sunday, July 26, at Downstairs Cabaret Theatre (20 Windsor Street). Show times are 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday; 3 p.m. Sunday. General admission tickets are $25. For more information, visit downstairscabaret.com. — BY GINO FANELLI Family Fun Day.

Buggin’ out “Ant-Man”
(PG-13), DIRECTED BY PEYTON REED NOW PLAYING [ REVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW
As the Marvel Cinematic Universe grows ever larger (and if “Avengers: Age of Ultron” is any indication, more unwieldy) it comes as something of a relief that the latest chapter chooses to take a step back from all that world-expanding to tell a relatively small-scale story. With “Ant-Man,” Marvel deviates ever-so-slightly from their house style, but even a superficial variation proves to be just enough to freshen up the formula. “Ant-Man” tells the origin story of Scott Lang (Paul Rudd), an ex-con with a heart of gold.
Imprisoned for committing some Robin Hoodesque robberies (the script is vague on the details), he’s now free and desperate to redeem himself to the family that’s moved on without him, namely his young daughter and his ex-wife (Judy Greer), along with her police officer fiancé (Bobby Cannavale). Enter Dr. Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), a scientist and the inventor of a suit which allows the wearer to shrink in size while increasing in strength. Having been squeezed out of his company by his former protégé, Darren Cross (Corey Stoll), Pym recruits Scott to break into his corporation, steal the suit, and foil Cross’ plans to get rich by militarizing the technology. Along with the shrinking suit, Scott gains control of a device which allows him to telepathically communicate with an army of ants. That ability comes in handy, but for some reason no one else seems as eager to get their hands on that bit of tech. Hank’s daughter, Hope (a steely Evangeline Lilly), assists with Scott’s training while glowering on the sidelines as she prepares someone else for a job everyone knows she’s more qualified to take on. The script bends over backwards explaining

why Hope has to stay out of the action, and her storyline stands in for a general disappointment over the lack of female superhero representation. I can’t decide if Marvel deserves credit for acknowledging those frustrations, or derision for opting to simply kick that particular can further down the road. Of course, the elephant in the room during any discussion of “Ant-Man” is Edgar Wright’s much-publicized departure as director. Wright still receives a writing credit on the film (along with Rudd, Joe Cornish, and “Anchorman” director Adam McKay) and while it’s tempting to try and identify which scenes still bear his fingerprints and speculate over what might have been, it’s unfair to judge this film for what it isn’t. To his credit, replacement director Peyton Reed (“Bring It On,” “Down With Love”) seems to have handled all this talk with remarkable grace, and under the circumstances, he deserves credit for delivering such a solid, playful little film. While Rudd feels slightly reigned in from his usual comedic persona, enough of his likeable personality shines through to make him an affably low-key hero. Like Robert Redford in “Winter Soldier,” Douglas injects a bit of gravitas to the proceedings, and he and Rudd make a great team. Stoll has fun with his villainous role, though he’s basically playing a variation on Jeff Bridges’ Obadiah Stane character from the first “Iron Man,” and the entire corporate power conflict is basically lifted straight from that film. The film is being described as a “superhero heist movie,” which is probably overselling things
Sex and the single girl “Trainwreck” (R), DIRECTED BY JUDD APATOW NOW PLAYING [ REVIEW ] BY DAYNA PAPALEO
a bit; let’s call it a “superhero movie with heist elements.” “Ant-Man” still feels very much a part of the Marvel brand, though we do get a break from the ongoing Thanos arc. In contrast to “Age of Ultron,” where scenes zipped by in an effort to squeeze in everything, “Ant-Man” feels looser, finding time to work in some fun (if unnecessary) bits of business, like a scene in which Scott unexpectedly goes up against one of the Avengers. Michael Peña provides some nice comic relief as Scott’s former cellmate who’s enlisted to become part of the crew. It’s a role that borders on stereotype, but Peña is such a charismatic presence that you can almost overlook it. In keeping with the film’s smaller stakes, there’s no saving the planet from annihilation; the film’s climactic fight is contained almost entirely inside a little girl’s bedroom. The delightful visual comedy of that sequence, playing with character’s proportions and shifting perspective, is a film highlight — ”Ant-Man” is the rare summer blockbuster that actually gets better as it goes on. The effects are good throughout: a pre-credit sequence set in 1989, in which a digitally de-aged Douglas butts heads with some familiar faces from S.H.I.E.L.D., is particularly impressive. But the charms of “Ant-Man” come largely from the shaggy, amiable personality that shines through. Paring down the bloated nature of many Marvel films, the film embraces its weirdness, balancing clever gags and action into an immensely satisfying whole. For once, the little guy gets to have his day.
So the idea, they say, is to write what you know, but since men make up more than 80 percent of the screenwriters in Hollywood, we’ve long been subjected to a cavalcade of female protagonists created without any actual insider info. (Just kidding! What female protagonists?) The majority of fictional women in movies are fabricated from supposition, cliché, and fantasy, with romantic-comedy heroines in particular usually operating under the comforting assumption that marriage and kids are the Holy Grail, and the physical business is just a means to an end. The female characters who love sex are traditionally the hot-mess best friend, the manipulative bitch, and — well, I think that’s it. Sex is about power (according to Oscar Wilde), and one-dimensional women are easier to handle ... or would be if they actually existed. The authentic, profane, and surprisingly radical genius of comedian Amy Schumer does not lie in the fact that she’s unafraid to reflect that we chicks contain multiple

dimensions, many of them embarrassingly ugly, but in that she uses herself as the defiant vehicle to illustrate her points. Schumer has been riding a wave of acclaim for her killer TV show “Inside Amy Schumer,” which laces silly, raunchy bits with razor-sharp feminist commentary. And in her hilariously perceptive rom-com “Trainwreck,” she continues to combine her brash comedy with casual crucifixion, making her feature film debut as both a devastatingly smart screenwriter and very capable leading lady. As is her usual M.O., Schumer plays a character named Amy, first glimpsed in flashback as a pre-teen being lectured by her father (the underappreciated Colin Quinn) on the horrors of monogamy, then seen a couple decades later putting that advice into practice with a montage of men, explaining to us in voiceover how she’s perfectly content with her boozy, sexpositive lifestyle. (Or: “Don’t judge me, f**kers.”) Amy writes for a men’s magazine called “S’Nuff” (the matchless Tilda Swinton flexes her comedic chops as Amy’s blunt editor), and her latest assignment is a profile on Manhattan sports doctor Aaron Conners (Bill Hader, an unlikely but excellent leading-man choice). Naturally, Amy and Aaron hit it off, and while he seems a little shocked by — but definitely not unhappy with — her sexual boldness, she’s completely floored by his matter-offact insistence that they start dating. Now, romantic-comedy rules dictate that both Amy and Aaron have support systems; she is super-tight with her happily married sister Kim (Brie Larson, in a lovely performance), and he regularly confides in his close friend, basketball superstar and serial cheapskate LeBron James. (King James proves to be a humble master of comic timing.) “Trainwreck” unfolds as Amy tries to wrangle her selfish, freewheeling ways

COAST OF DEATH Friday, July 24, 8 p.m.
Where cinema is an event. 7 days a week.
dryden.eastmanhouse.org Sponsored by
Those who regard cinema as a pleasure for the eyes will be richly rewarded by this stunning portrait of what the ancient Romans called “the end of the world.” There is very little dialogue in the film, as its real protagonist is the rugged, majestic landscape of the coastline and its troubled relationship with loggers, sailors, farmers, and shellfish hunters. Patiño’s feature debut celebrates the majesty of planet Earth while being explicit on how humans are exploiting its resources. (Costa da morte, Lois Patiño, Spain 2013, 81 min., DCP, Gallegan w/subtitles) Part of the ongoing series Primal Screen, special presentations by Senior Curator Paolo Cherchi Usai.
into the perceived confines of an adult relationship with Aaron, which is where Schumer’s mostly audacious script butts up against director Judd Apatow, who has made a career out of indecisive menchildren straightening up and flying right. It’s tempting to blame him for the tritely happy ending, a rarified world in which Madison Square Garden is a personal playground — though you can probably chalk it up to a studio wary of ceding complete control of a movie to a mischievous wild card like Schumer. But between Schumer, Apatow (who consistently throws his massive clout behind talented women like Schumer and Lena Dunham), and the stacked cast, there was never any doubt that “Trainwreck” would work. Of course Schumer is funny here, her delivery is at once unique and familiar, but she also fares well in her dramatic scenes, which actually dovetail nicely with the comedy and don’t feel like forced attempts at conflict. Many of the faces on screen have also been on Schumer’s show, like comedians Mike Birbiglia and Dave Attell, along with the riotously slimy Jon Glaser, but watch out for former WWE wrestler John Cena, who goes for broke as Amy’s sorta-boyfriend. He is a scream in an awkward sex scene early in the film, reportedly ad-libbing most of his ridiculous lines. It’s hard to overstate what a minor miracle it feels like to see the entrenched gender roles reversed in “Trainwreck,” with the woman as the reluctant, immature party unsure about giving up her sexual freedom and the man as the patient romantic, with coupledom his desired end-game. And even though you’ve almost certainly encountered it in real life, have you ever heard the main female character in a romantic comedy use the word “f**k” as a verb? It’s Amy Schumer’s world now, people, and it’s about f**king time.
THE WICKER MAN—FINAL CUT Saturday, July 25, 8 p.m. After receiving an anonymous letter about a missing 12-year-old girl, a devout Christian cop travels by seaplane to a remote Scottish island to investigate. But the islanders welcome neither his badge nor religious devotion, for the laird of the isle and his devoted followers worship only the pagan gods of old—and those gods demand a sacrifice. “The Wicker Man . . . changed music, art and film when fans rediscovered it en masse in the 1990s. You need to see it if you haven’t already, and if you have—watch it again. It never gets tired.” – William Fowler, Sight and Sound (Robin Hardy, UK 1973, 92 min., DCP) Part of the series Summer of the Leviathan.

Awe-Inspiring Architecture on Argyle 34 Argyle Street Elegant architectural details abound in the Colonial Revival style home at 34 Argyle Street, located just off East Avenue, in the heart of one of Rochester’s most attractive neighborhoods. This 5,464 square foot home was originally designed in 1894 by the prolific Rochester firm of Fay and Dryer. By 1905 the new owner hired Claude Bragdon, Rochester’s most innovative early 20th century architect, to make alterations to the existing house. Fay and Dryer’s original plans as well as Bragdon’s alterations are archived in the University of Rochester Rare Book and Manuscript Collections. The result of the two architects working on the same house is a stunning, spacious dwelling filled with light. The welcoming center entrance has an exceptionally long porch accentuated by Doric columns that support a classic pediment. The front door is surmounted by a fanlight window. The roomy foyer leads to a breathtaking front hall. Three open doorways with tapered columns topped by elliptical arches grace this area. The fireplaces in the living room and the dining room have intricately carved mantels. Pocket doors separate the living room from a dining room large enough to hold a banquet-sized table and still have space for a grand piano in the window bay. Deep crown molding adds a finishing touch to these striking rooms. There are seven bedrooms, four full baths, and two half baths. The kitchen has been
recently updated with marble counters, a marble-topped island, new cabinets and Wolf appliances. There is space for a table or the room adjacent to it can be used as a large breakfast room. Two additional first floor rooms could be used as a home office and a music room. The roomy upstairs central hall features built-in storage for linens. Throughout the house the hardwood flooring is in excellent condition. The master bedroom has an extra large closet area and the master bath has been remodeled; it now boasts a walk-in shower and a soaking tub. The house has a total of seven fireplaces. The third floor can be legally rented as a twobedroom apartment. The backyard has a patio and attractive perennial plantings. The one-car garage is detached. The walkable neighborhood is close to the museums and churches of East Avenue and the shops and restaurants of Park Avenue. The 38th Park Avenue Festival, a celebration of the entire neighborhood, will be held August 1 and 2. The agent for this home, listed at $534,900, is Angela Brown of the Angie Flack Brown Team of Keller Williams Realty. She can be contacted at 585-455-5866, or by email at angieflackbrown@kw.com. by Mitzie Collins Mitzie is a Rochester musician with an affinity for older homes.

Fun [ NEWS OF THE WEIRD ] BY CHUCK SHEPHERD
Outsourcing
Among the protesters at New York City’s Gay Pride Parade on the Sunday after the Supreme Court’s historic gay-marriage decision was a group of men outfitted in Jewish prayer garments and representing the Jewish Political Action Committee, carrying signs reading, for example, “Judaism prohibits homosexuality.” However, the men were very likely not Jewish, but in fact Mexican laborers hired for the day. A representative of the committee told The New York Times that the men were “supplemental” — necessary because the committee’s rabbis would not permit their students (who normally staff such protests) to be exposed to the sights of samesex exuberance typical for the parade.
Government in Action
— WOOD-TV of Grand Rapids, Michigan, seemingly uncovered an antiquity — if not a potential vulnerability — in the Grand Rapids public school system in June when it reported that the heating and cooling systems at 19 schools are controlled using a Commodore Amiga computer (released in the 1980s, about the same time as Windows 2.0), operating on an early Internet modem. It had been installed by a computer-savvy student and, according to the maintenance supervisor, still works fine. Fortunately, the supervisor said, the student still lives in the area and is available if problems arise. — Recurring Theme: Government officials who insist on such “bells and whistles” as redesigning their department’s logo are often ridiculed for wasting taxpayer money (yet design consultants continue to sell the illusion that a new logo can give a bureaucracy a refreshing rebirth). In May, Tennessee officials unveiled a new state
logo (which cost only $46,000 — not counting the expense of changing signs, cards, stationery, etc.), which consists of the letters “TN” in white inside a red box with a blue trim underneath. (A Watchdog.org critic suggested a contest to design a superior one, but open only to kids age 12 and under, with the prize a $50 Amazon.com gift certificate.)
Compelling Explanations
Adultery is illegal in Japan — except, as a Tokyo District Court judge ruled in a “psychological distress” lawsuit filed by the jilted wife, when it is done by a company to retain a good customer. A night club hostess who had carried on with the married man proved that she did so only as “makura eigyo,” or “pillow sales tactic.” Said the judge, “As long as the intercourse is for business, it does not harm the marital relationship at all.” (The ruling, from 2014, was first publicized this year.)
New World Order
In 1993, the owner of the iconic 5Pointz building in New York City began allowing graffiti artists to use the walls for their masterpieces, but by 2013 had grown weary of the building’s look and had the walls whitewashed. In June 2015, nine of the artists filed a federal lawsuit demanding that the owner compensate them, substantially, for destroying their creations — and they stand a good chance of collecting (under the Visual Artists Rights Act) if they prove their particular works are of “recognized stature” and not merely art of an “ephemeral nature.” At its height, 5Pointz attracted more than 350 artists’ works from around the world.
[ LAST WEEK’S SOLUTION ON PAGE 26 ]
[ LOVESCOPE ] BY EUGENIA LAST ARIES (March 21-April 19): You’ll teeter back and forth between being passionate and being angry when it comes to dealing with romantic matters. Choose the high road, and refuse to let jealousy or insecurity take you down a dark path. Make the choice to be outgoing and fun. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You won’t see very clearly when it comes to affairs of the heart. Don’t be too eager to buy someone’s time and affection. You will be much better off spending time with someone who just wants to be with you, not someone making demands and asking for too much.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Playing house with someone you want to spend a lot more time with will prove to be fruitful. Make a point to invite the person you think is the One to come visit, and you will be able to charm him or her to stay as long as you like. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Meeting someone while traveling or who lives at a distance will tempt you, but first consider the pros and cons that coexist with not having the person you want to be with by your side every day or having to move away from your home and family.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ve got all the right moves and the charm and playful attitude that makes everyone want to be by your side. Enjoy your good fortune and get out and meet as many potential partners as possible while the time is right and the prospects are plentiful. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t be too desperate to be in a relationship for the sake of not being alone. You’ll attract people who are argumentative and likely to use you if you aren’t careful. Choose someone who shares your beliefs and is genuinely interested in who you are and what you do.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): It takes two to tango, so get out and mingle with people who stimulate you intellectually. If someone can keep up with you mentally and make you laugh and think, you will find him or her more attractive as your relationship develops. Don’t take a pass due to looks alone. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You may want to lead with your heart, but someone will play emotional games if you are too eager to please. Consider getting involved with someone totally different from anyone you’ve been with in the past, and you will get a new perspective on life, love and happiness.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your happy-go-lucky attitude will win hearts this week. Travel, meet new people and sign up for a new adventure, and the rest will be history. Your unique, playful personality will bring someone quite special into your life. Enjoy the moment, and have some fun. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your heart is in the right place, but someone is likely to take advantage of you. Don’t wait to find out more about someone’s background. Lay your cards on the table and ask the same in return. It’s best not to waste time on the wrong mate.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone from your past or a new partner who reminds you of the one who got away will surface. Consider what went wrong way back when, and do your best to do things right this time around. Love is on the rise, so don’t let it pass you by. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You’ll find it difficult to settle down. Don’t lead anyone on or set your sights on someone who isn’t available. If you find that your emotions are sending you unstable signals or that someone you encounter has other motives, you are best to back away.
