A commons problem | The completion date of the Ithaca Commons redesign project has been delayed again, with the 100 block of W. State St. not scheduled for completion until the spring.

Further delays pushing the overall completion date of the Ithaca Commons redesign project to next spring are negatively affecting local businesses, according to business owners who voiced concerns to the Common Council Wednesday.

The project, which began in the spring of 2013, was officially scheduled for completion on July 31 of this year but was subsequently delayed until November. Further complications, however, have pushed the completion date on all sections of the Commons besides the surfaces on Bank See COMMONS page 5

Governor Demands New SUNY Sexual Assault Policies

By SOFIA HU Sun Senior Writer

Under an order by Governor Andrew Cuomo (DN.Y.), all State University of New York schools will have to adopt a new, comprehensive sexual assault policy within 60 days his address, given Thursday.

Cuomo said the new SUNY policy will eventually lead to a statewide, sexual assault law covering all universities in the state, according to The New York Times.

Addressing the SUNY Board of Trustees, Cuomo called sexual assault an “epidemic.”

“It is spreading. And it is pervasive. It’s plaguing our

college campuses, it’s astonishing and it’s troubling,” he said in his speech Thursday.

Following Cuomo’s address, the SUNY Board of Trustees passed a memorandum to establish a uniform sexual assault prevention and response plan for all 64 SUNY campuses.

Among many changes, the new policy will define consent as a “clear, unambiguous and voluntary agreement,” resembling legislation signed into law on Sept. 28 in California establishing the “yes means yes” definition of consent.

The new definition for affirmative consent at SUNY campuses now reads, “Consent is clear, knowing and vol-

untary. Consent is active, not passive. Silence, in and of itself, cannot be interpreted as consent.”

According to Cuomo, while campus sexual assault is not only a problem at SUNY schools, it is an issue that SUNY should lead in combating.

“This is a societal problem. This is Harvard and Yale and Princeton, Albany and Buffalo and Oswego,” Cuomo said. “It is not SUNY’s problem by origination. I would suggest it should be SUNY’s problem to solve and SUNY’s place to lead.”

Ithacans Fill City Streets for 32nd Applefest

By BENEDETTA CARNAGHI Sun Contributor

Though many students and Ithacans attended the 32nd Apple Harvest Festival, some vendors said they believe the construction had a negative effect on the festival.

Lewis Ward ’89, the business owner of Ward’s Maple Products and a graduate from Cornell’s Maple Program, has attended the festival for 25 years. Ward said he believes the construction on the Commons — which has been going on since April 2013 — has negatively affected the Applefest experience for vendors and attendees.

“The construction in the Commons is killing us.” Ward said. “In the Commons the crowds were better, they were not confused as to where to go, they were all in one. Now we are on the streets and some people get a little lost.”

Terri Brace, who works at the Center Cafe, agreed that the construction was “horrendous” for businesses. She added, however, that Applefest remained a positive event for the community.

“It’s the second year we put up a stand at the Festival,” Brace said. “[Saturday] is a little slower than last year’s Saturday, but our Friday was better than the year before.

Weather could be a factor. This morning was really slow, and people were cowering from the rain, but as soon as the sky opened up they came out.”

Amber Murray, an employee for Bellwether Hard Cider, which specializes in the production of a range of handcrafted ciders using Upstate New York apples, said the weather likely affected business.

“We’ve been here several years,” said Amber Murray, a Bellwether employee.

“This year we’ve been pretty busy, even if the rain made it a little slower.”

Abby Rathgeb ’15 said that though the festival was “still great” as in previous years, the layout of the stands was more inconvenient.

“Everything was split up in a way that made it more difficult to find what you were looking for and you had to walk a few blocks in between the sections,” Rathgeb said.

“In the Commons the crowds were better, they were all in one. Now we are on the streets and some people get a little lost.”

Lewis Ward Kimberly Bernstein ’15 also commented on the lack of centralization at this year’s Applefest.

“I didn’t like that the festival was cut into two different sections. It separated a lot of the activities so you couldn’t explore everything at the same time,” she said. “It was still fun, but it felt more disorganized because some of the booths were blocks away from the other ones.”

Thurston Leaves Behind Career on Plant Diseases

By ANNIE BUI Sun News Editor

Prof. Emeritus H. David Thurston, international agriculture and plant pathology, died Sept. 26 following a brief illness. He was 87.

Thurston — who joined the College of

Agriculture and Life Sciences in July 1967 – trained students to deal with plant disease issues of the tropics and developing countries, according to the University. He also taught a graduate course on plant diseases in tropical agricultural development from 1968

to 1997.

He received his bachelor’s and master’s degree from the University of Minnesota in 1950 and 1953, respectively, according to his biography. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota in 1958.

Cornell Agrees to Increase Payments to TCAT

Cornell announced Thursday that the University has agreed to increase its payments to TCAT and will work with the bus service to create a more sustainable funding model. The University’s decision comes in response to a resolution passed by the TCAT Board of Directors on Aug. 28 that called on Cornell to subsidize fares at $1 per ride. No specifics about the agreement has been released.

Festival was the Apple Pie Bake-Off Competition which took place Sunday at noon in front of the State Theatre. The pies of the 13 competitors were scored on appearance, crust, filling, overall flavor and creativity.

Kara Pellowe-Wagstaff was crowned winner of the contest. Hers was the only vegan pie in the competition.

“I bake as a hobby,” she said, “I love to bake vegan food for my friends. I've never won a baking contest before but I always wanted to enter one so this is very exciting!”

Abbie Kramer ’18 said she thought the her first experience of the festival was a positive one.

“It’s a great sense of community, not to mention fantastic food,” Kramer said.

Ana Yu ’17 echoed these positive sentiments.

“I think that Applefest is one of the most fun Ithaca festivities of the year,” Yu said. “It seems to really usher in autumn with apple cider, doughnuts [and] pies.”

The event — organized by the Downtown Ithaca Alliance — began as a small harvest festival in 1982 to promote Upstate New York agricultural products.

Garrett Reflects on Addressing Student Issues at USC GARRETT

Continued from page 1

similar to Cornell in the diversity of its student body. We have no majority, racial or ethnic groups in our student body.

Another area I’ve been very proud to have been part of is emphasizing first-generation college goers in our undergraduate class. Fourteen percent of USC’s entering undergraduate class are first-generation college goers. And I think Cornell has a similar emphasis on that kind of diversity of socioeconomic and often racial and ethnic diversity that can be reflected in first-generation college goers. We has have 18 percent of our entering class at USC who are Pell grant eligible. Again, that shows economic diversity that I think is very important.

One of the things we did last year is we’ve looked at the diversity in our undergraduate student body. One of the struggles I think all of us in higher education have been facing is making sure to have African American students comprise a significant part of our undergraduate class and participate with us in this great experience. So we made a targeted effort last year to increase the number of African Americans in the undergraduate class by going to high schools where we knew that there were a significant number of African American students graduating and discussing with them the opportunities at USC. We were able to change that number quite

significantly in this years class.

Those are some of the kinds of things that I think are important to do as you think about building a diverse undergraduate class from the admissions standpoint.

We also at USC since I’ve been provost have been identifying segments of our student population that may not sometimes feel as connected as other parts or may face particular challenges in various kinds of aspects of higher education, and we’ve made a targeted outreach. For example, international students, comprise of about 17 percent of our entering class and I know they are a substantial part of Cornell’s student body. You know, they have some different challenges than domestic students — they’re further away from home, they may face cultural difference that are surprising to them [and] sometimes they don’t graduate in the same numbers as others at USC. We have been doing very targeted outreach for international undergraduate students and our graduate students, and making sure they feel at home and comfortable. Similarly with some of the racial and ethnic groups, we work very hard to make sure that they feel both integrated and also supported as groups. ...

That’s the sort of broad description of how we’ve thought about it at USC on the student side, and I would want to continue those sorts of efforts because as I’ve said, I think diversity is not only fundamental to Cornell’s founding and in Cornell’s DNA, but because I

We must avoid them, and if of the changes we were making, people violate those policies, they and they were based on some have to be punished.

In California, a new law has Cornell — and of course I want to just been passed defining consent, listen a lot more — is that many of and we were part of the drafting of the policies that I wrote about in my memo for USC are well underway at Cornell. For example, I remember when I met with the students, I talked to somebody about the bystander efforts that you already undertake at Cornell, and I want to learn more about that, but it sounds like Cornell has moved very far along that path of effective bystander education in ensuring that all members of the Cornell community feel empow-

ered to intervene before a bad situation can develop. As members of a caring community, if we see someone who is vulnerable, who is in danger, we have to that we have the power to intervene to protect them.

SUN: What do you think is a University’s role in addressing global issues, and in particular, climate change and sustainability?

E.G.: I think we have two roles in [addressing climate change and sustainability]. First, universities are the best places to find solutions to problems because we have the very best minds, we have the very best disciplines working together [and] we have the capacity in the academy to think about things in a rigorous and innovative way. And not only to understand them, but then to move forward with them with practical innovations. Of course, that has been Cornell’s background, that the Cornellian faculty work hard not only to figure out the right answers and to make discoveries, but then to take those discoveries out in the world.

I think that’s inherent in our landgrant mission and in the foundation of Cornell. I think universities play an enormously important role in determining the problem and figuring out solutions. …

Secondly, universities need to be good global citizens. I have been very intrigued and interested to read about President Skorton’s sustainability initiatives within the University and the goal of the University to take steps to reduce its carbon footprint, to think about values of sustainability in its activities and buildings. I think universities can play two different roles as both the engines of solutions and taking actions within the universities that can reflect our commitment to being good global citizens.

SUNY Revisits Assault Policy SUNY

Continued from page 1

the Student Assembly, said he supports SUNY’s new policy.

“I believe that it is a step in the right direction. Consent must be mutual when partaking in any and all forms of sexual activity,” Titcomb said. “I believe that Gov. Cuomo’s policy for the SUNY schools will affect Cornell by helping to further define what consent actually is, hopefully helping administrators thoroughly prosecute sexual assailants.”

According to Titcomb, the change in SUNY’s sexual assault policy should prompt Cornell to update its own policy on discrimination, harassment and sexual assault and violence, titled “University Policy 6.4” “Put bluntly, Policy 6.4 is ineffective,” Titcomb said. “We need to foster an environment where survivors of sexual assault are able to come forward and report what happened to them rather than stigmatize and blame the survivors. It is also important to remember that men can also be subjected to sexual assault and that sexual assault does not only happen in a heterosexual

context; men can prey on men and women can prey on women.”

Many students have also recently raised concerns about Policy 6.4. At the rally for the National Day of Protest Against Rape Culture last Tuesday, protesters left a mattress in front of Day Hall with the spray painted message, “Skorton, here is your oral warning. We’re fighting back.”

The “oral warning” echoes terminology used in Policy 6.4, which states that disciplinary action against Cornellians who commit sexual assault or violence can include an “oral warning.”

Other disciplinary actions include suspension, dismissal and community work.

According to Yamini Bhandari ’17, women’s issues liaison at large for the S.A., while the University’s sexual policy may “have its flaws,” the policy is comparable to that of other institutions.

“I think the problem for us is the fact that the policies are so confusing that it becomes a deterrent for most students to actually utilize them,” Bhandari said.

NYSEG,Simeon’s Crash Add to Commons Delay COMMONS

Continued from page 1

Alley and the 200 block of the Commons until next spring.

According to Gary Ferguson, executive director of the Downtown Ithaca Alliance, there are two major causes of the delay.

“One was that the laying of the utilities really got complicated, particularly the ones that were outside of the control of project and those were the ones — pretty much the gas and electric — that were controlled by NYSEG,” Ferguson said.

The second cause of delays, Ferguson said, “was the [crash at Simeon’s] that happened over the summer, which certainly added some problems to the project.”

As a result of the delays and ongoing construction, Ferguson said that “the message was communicated last week [at the Common Council meeting] that a number of businesses have been adversely affected.”

Adil Grigiuhi, owner of Casablanca Pizzeria, who said that he had seen a 65 to 75 percent decrease in customers, stressed at the Common Council meeting last week of the importance of finishing construction as soon

as possible.

“The job was promised to be done at a certain time and they changed the date, and then they changed it again. We’re just sick and tired about hearing about all these delays,” Griguhi said. “The job has to be done so that life can go back to normal.”

Grigiuhi also said that if the lack of customers caused his business to close down it would be worse than bankruptcy to him.

“I know that a lot of people are affected. I don’t even have time for my family, I’m here all the time. I’ve got to make money to pay some bills and pay everybody,” he said. “We have a lot of pressure, we have a lot of bills to pay.”

Jerry Martins, who co-owns Now You’re Cooking on the Commons, also spoke at the Common Council meeting and said in addition to a promise of no more delays on the construction project, there were several proposed remedies that could alleviate the stress on businesses.

According to Martins, the Commons should include features such as better lighting in the evening and more cross-throughs amid construction so customers could more easily access stores, as well as some electricity that would enable stores to put up Christmas lights in the

winter.

“We also need the side-walk areas fixed up, because they’re really tough,” he added. “Older people, people with baby-strollers or on walkers are really having a tough time, so they’re avoiding coming downtown … and we also want to make a way for some free parking for customers to make it somewhat easier.”

As a response to the concerns of business owners, another meeting is scheduled for Thursday to allow merchants and Common Council members to discuss implementing proposed remedies to the disruptions caused by construction, according to Martins.

While Martins said that he and other businesses were feeling the negative effects due to the continued construction, he said help from the city would help businesses weather the construction.

“It’s not only the city that we need help from, we also need help from the people — the students from Ithaca College and Cornell University — they have to play their role to come down and shop. … The city can’t do everything by themselves,” Grigiuhi also added. “Everybody has to chip in if they want to save downtown.”

Typhoon Hits Tokyo, Search for UVA Student Continues Killing U.S.Airman TOKYO (AP) — A powerful typhoon lashed southern Japan on Sunday, churning up high waves that washed three American airmen out to sea and killed at least one before taking aim at Tokyo.

Elsewhere in the Pacific, a separate typhoon whipped the Mariana Islands, including Guam, with high winds and heavy rain.

By late Sunday, Typhoon Phanfone was off the coast of Shikoku in southwestern Japan, with winds of up to 90 miles per hour after hitting the regions of Okinawa and Kyushu, Japan’s Meteorological Agency said.

One of the three airmen was found dead. The other two were missing, according to the Air Force and the Japanese coast guard.

They had been on Okinawa island’s northern coast when they were overcome by the waves, according to Tsuguyoshi Miyagi

of the coast guard’s Okinawa branch.

The Air Force said the search for the missing airmen had been interrupted by rough seas. Their names were being withheld pending notification of relatives.

Okinawa is home to about half of the roughly 50,000 American troops stationed in Japan.

Several people on Kyushu island were injured in the typhoon. The storm also grounded more than 100 flights Sunday and knocked out power to more than 9,500 Kyushu homes.

In Suzuka, in central Japan, a French driver was severely injured following an accident in the Japanese Grand Prix that had to be shortened because the heavy rain made conditions too dangerous. Formula One driver Jules Bianchi of the Marussia team went off the track at a turn and hit a recovery vehicle that was removing a car that had crashed earlier.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Charlottesville’s police chief said Sunday that an anguished statement from the parents of a missing University of Virginia student has given investigators fresh resolve to carry on with the difficult search of hundreds square miles of countryside.

Police Chief Timothy Longo said that law enforcement is aggressively searching areas surrounding Charlottesville — many of which are hilly or thick with brush — for Hannah Graham,

who disappeared on Sept. 13.

He said he hopes that the plight of Hannah’s parents moves anyone who may have information about the disappearance to come forward.

“This young lady disappeared.

She was taken. Somebody has to know something. Somebody has to have seen something,” he said in a short interview Sunday afternoon.

A team of about 100 law enforcement officers and other trained searchers were combing

the countryside over the weekend for any sign of the college sophomore. Teams have been searching every day since the 18-year-old student vanished.

On Saturday, her parents made an emotional plea for whoever is responsible for the disappearance to help find their daughter. In the videotaped statement, Sue Graham said: “Please, please, please help end this nightmare for all of us.” The Grahams also thanked law enforcement for their efforts.

For Development With Residents in Mind LAST WEEK, DEVELOPER AND LANDLORD NICK LAMBROU unveiled his proposed development for 114 Catherine, a three-story apartment with 17 rooms on what currently is a five-car surface parking lot. If approved, his proposal will join the other proposed developments in Collegetown that the City of Ithaca Planning and Development Board has been approving. It would also follow the new zoning ordinance that the city implemented in Collegetown and is expected to be approved by the Board.

We at The Sun commend developers who are increasing the housing stock of the neighborhood in line with the progressive zoning ordinance that the city established, and we encourage other developers to do the same.

While the Catherine Street development will still have to follow minimum parking requirements, many developers have been trying to build in Collegetown because of the new zoning code. Since the city removed minimum parking requirements for many lots in the central Collegetown area with its Collegetown Area Form Districts plan in March, a burst of development proposals have been submitted to the Planning and Development Board for review. Together, the new developments, if approved, would add hundreds of bedrooms to the Collegetown rental housing stock, which we hope will help moderate prices in a neighborhood that is increasingly pricing out all residents of Ithaca. Successful developments would also be in line with other provisions of the city’s form-based zoning code, which ensures that new developments are designed to integrate with the existing housing stock, rather than be the new eyesores of the neighborhood. The code also encourages buildings along busy streets to provide retail spaces on the ground floor, providing space for amenities that can be enjoyed by existing and new residents alike. We support the city’s decision to increase the capacity and vitality of Collegetown through an innovative zoning ordinance, and support developers who are in the process of creating new developments that are up to this code.

We at The Sun also commend developers that are following the code’s vision of an active neighborhood by incorporating amenities in their designs. From a new bus shelter to a new grocery store, these new amenities will improve the quality of life for all residents in the neighborhood. We encourage other developers to consider the current and future needs of Collegetown and incorporate solutions from the beginning, rather than as an afterthought. We also encourage owners of vacant storefronts to make an effort to attract and retain businesses. Together, these two actions will increase the vitality and livability of Collegetown today and in the future.

Innovation Still Starts With an‘I’

y biggest question for Bill Gates when he visited last Wednesday to dedicate Bill and Melinda Gates Hall would be: When he ran Microsoft, why he charged $120 for Office? He isn’t in desperate need for cash; Gates burned 25 million building the Fortress of Solitude, i.e. Superman’s homebase on the North Pole, next to Hoy Field — the metaphor works because Gates Hall is also glass castle located in an arctic climate.

120 dollars is highway robbery for Office considering so many products do exactly what Office does, only better and cheaper.

Apple’s competing product, iWork, recently grabbed my attention.

Don’t worry, you haven’t lost your Apple cred if you don’t know iWork. Nobody really talks about iWork because there is nothing special about it. People are going to start talking about iWork though. Apple completely overhauled it with the new iPhone launch. None of the technology is new per se but it is way better than anything on the market because Apple’s genius is making technology accessible. iWork is pretty much Google Drive, but people who don’t use Google Drive will use iWork because it’s more accessible. I love Google Drive, but storing documents on a server in Council Bluffs, Iowa is foreign to most people. They’re more comfortable with having an application and saving files on their computer. I

People don’t understand that Apple’s biggest strength isn’t inventing new technology. Rather, its strenght lies in integrating existing tecnology into people’s lives. started posting minutes on Google Drive in one of the organizations I’m part of and have gotten a lot of polite, and not so polite, requests to go to hell. Apple knows this so they designed a product that lets people edit documents on their desktop in the traditional way, but also edit them on the go like Google Drive.

People don’t understand that Apple’s biggest strength isn’t inventing new technology. Rather, its strength lies in integrating existing technology into people’s lives. The iPod, the device that made Apple a household name, is a prime example. The iPod was definitely not the first MP3 player, it was just the first MP3 player that people wanted because it was easy to use. Think about it: If you took Joe off the street and tried selling him an MP3 player circa 2000, he’d politely tell you to go to hell because it was too complicated for him. Yet, after Apple released the iPod in 2001, our friend Joe could not imagine his life without an MP3 Player because of how seamlessly it integrated into his routine.

A lot have people are questioning Apple because the new iPhone wasn’t the first phone with near-field-connectivity, an oversized screen or buttons on side instead of the top (yes, people actually complain about that). However, Apple’s genius isn’t inventing new technology; it is integrating existing technology into people’s lives.

The fact that 42 percent of smartphone users didn’t want big screens until Apple released one speaks for itself. Critics also forget how little consumers talked about NFC, until Apple started partnering with Citi, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and every other bank you’ve heard of so you can use your phone like a credit card with NFC. Apple doesn’t make new technology; it makes technology accessible.

Of course there’s a price. In order to use Apple services, you need to buy Apple’s software and products. For example, unlike any old MP3 player, you have to buy your songs through the iTunes store to use an iPod (you are highly encouraged too anyway). Unlike Google Drive — which works on everything, even Linux (if you don’t know what Linux is don’t sweat it; you would’ve already heard of it if it was useful to you) — in order to sync the documents stored on your Desktop to the iCloud website, you must be running OS X Yosemite which doesn’t exist yet. Apple still has to release it, and, when they do, upgrading will surely cost $20 or $30 (But going back to the Office thing, Apple’s entire operating system costs a third of Microsoft Office). As long as you're willing to pay, Apple takes existing technologies and makes them accessible.

think that the faculty advising system should take care of that, but I do not think it is adequate enough, as a student always feels like he or she is encroaching on a faculty member’s valuable time when asking them the simple question. A question like, “I am really confused and these are the subjects I really enjoy but I am not sure where or how to go ahead from here.”

Every week there is a column in The Sun about the growing stress about what next — all of it emerging from fear of rejection from jobs, graduate school, fellowships and all of that. This stress is very tangible and Cornell Minds Matter does an excellent job during exam week but the root of this stress is entrenched very deeply in the fear of failure in a world of increasing expectations and a decreasing time frame for success.

Amidst all of this, all the average, struggling Cornellian needs is to hear their professors, advisors and University administrators say, “It will all work out. You are doing a good job so far, and hard work pays off.” I know I don’t have a success story to back my word of assurance up, but I promise everyone who feels remotely anxious every other day, it will be okay and you are better off listening to what your professor is saying in the class you were so excited to sign up for than worrying about how blank or unimpressive your resume looks. You will get more out of it anyway.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT BOHEMIANS, URBANITES AND GLADIATORS Fashion Week Comes to New York, London, Milan and Paris

BY LETITIA CHAI Sun Contributor

While Cornellians say goodbye to sandals and bring out the fall boots, the fashion world is busy establishing trends for next summer. In fact, they are always half a year ahead of us. By early October, major fashion labels have wrapped up their shows and many have started working on their fall and winter collection for 2015. It is almost inconceivable that there are people planning what to wear a year in advance, while some of us have no clue what we’re eating for dinner.

So how does this madness work? There are two major fashion weeks, one for spring and summer and another for autumn and winter, which occur semiannually in New York, London, Milan and Paris.

These seasonal shows are called prêt-a-porter, which translates to ready-to-wear (hence, the online luxury fashion retailer Net-a-Porter). The spring/summer women’s collections are presented in the months of September and early October while the fall/winter designs are shown in February until early to mid March.

In addition, many labels have Pre-Fall, resort, menswear and couture collections, meaning that designers are working year-round. As if that’s not enough, some designers manage two or even three labels. Alexander Wang, for example, designs for his namesake brand as well as Givenchy. Karl Lagerfeld has his personal label, as well as Chanel and Fendi.

This season, designers not only resurrected old trends and emphasized new, but they also presented powerful stances concerning everything from feminism to environmentalism. At Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld finished his show with a faux riot of girls hoisting signs such as “History is HER story!” Gisele Bündchen and Cara Delevingne were spotted yelling pro-democracy and women’s rights slogans through Chanel-embossed megaphones.

In Paris, Vivienne Westwood began her show with a proclamation — “End Ecocide” — urging us to take responsibility for man-made environmental damage.

This followed the recent statement by the World Wildlife Fund that humans have caused the loss of half the world’s animal population in the past 40 years. In New York, Vera Wang and Altuzarra displayed folk-inspired dresses that evoked images of the ‘70s and a time when humans were closer to nature.

Simultaneously, the largest climate march in history

was taking place only a few blocks away and the Rockefellers had just announced their divestment from fossil fuels.

The eco-friendly bohemian trend followed across all four cities, but manifested most evidently in Milan.

Alberta Ferretti stole the show with neutral tone woven dresses with dollops of three-dimensional flowers across the chest and waistline. Etro shared bohemian looks with draped deepv dresses made of

trend employing tall, black gladiator sandals sure to i n t i m i d a t e bystanders.

Clothing and accessories teetered between whimsical and badass, ultimately finding a place in Sarah Burton’s designs for A l e x a n d e r M c Q u e e n .

Although we had seen a play of leather and threedimensional flowers at Michael Kors in New York and Jonathan Saunders in London, Burton brought the trend home to Paris. Her dresses incorporated ethereal floral details that trailed from the nape of the neck to the floor. In true McQueen style, she added an element of savage beauty to the look, sewing panels of black leather across the chest and shoulders for a harsh contrast to the flowers.

In other cases, brands took the image to an extreme, producing the ultimate femme fatale ensemble. Across all cities, designers embraced the sexy slit up the leg in a variety of designs. In New York, Versus Versace walked an all-black dress with slits up both legs, a bias cut back and v-neck across the runway.

Similar bombshell dresses were spotted at Ralph Lauren in New York, Tom Ford in London, Gucci in Milan and Mugler in Paris. But legs weren’t the only body part advertised by designs.

Black and white panels of translucent material offered a barely-there effect, as opaque fabric was used sparingly to cover only the necessary areas.

Burberry Prorsum (London), Akris (Paris) and Anthony Vaccarello (Paris), bared almost everything from the shoulders to the hip. Underboob is officially in.

The latest collections forecast this summer will be the season of fierce freedom. Take your pick between bohemian goddess or badass urbanite. Either way, there’s no losing. The spring/summer collection encourages us to to channel the grace and sex appeal of womanhood.

light chiffon textures and tied at the waist by handembroidered belts. You can always rely on Milan to showcase the best examples of the season’s trends.

This look was accompanied by none other than gladiator sandals. Some, such as those spotted at Chloé, wrapped around the calf like elegant thin vines while others, like those of Alexander McQueen, embodied a “don’t mess with me” attitude using black snakeskin print paneling and platformed soles.

Rodarte and Boss, in New York, also followed this

10-Minute Playfest: Better in a Black Box

BY HADIYAH CHOWDHURY Sun Contributor

Before attending 10-Minute Playfest at the Schwartz Center for Performing Arts on Staurday night, I had never been to a black box theater. Black box theaters are minimalistic and focus all the audience’s attention on the performers instead of elaborate sets or lighting, making it the perfect venue for this event. There were six short plays in total, coordinated by Nick Fesette grad and Aoise Stratford grad and stage managed by Chandler Waggoner ’15, ranging from parodies to experimental theater and just about everything in between.

The first play, a parody of Samuel Beckett’s classic Waiting for Godot titled Waiting for Waiting for Godot, was a perfect start to the performances. The premise is simple: Two friends wait in an impossibly long line to get tickets to see Waiting for Godot, despite the fact that neither of them knows what the play is actually about.

This short play, written by Seth Soulstein, grad and directed by Andy Fiorenti ’16, hit on the fact that while modern-day audiences have extremely short attention spans, they are willing to put absurd amounts of effort into things that may make them seem more intellectual or cultured. The idea of waiting so long for something so intangible is something of an absurdity, tying in perfectly with Beckett’s original absurdist play.

Jessica Evans ’15’s Stubborn Men and the Daughters Who Raise Them, directed by Jayme Kilburn, grad, was touching and funny — a daughter who wants to travel the world with her boyfriend, finds out that her father is suffering from prostate cancer and, at the last minute, cancels her plans in order to care for him. There was nothing very special or unique about the father-daughter

relationship: A daughter wants to spend time with her boyfriend while her father disapproves; a father’s ex-wife remarries while he looks on with jealousy. How many times have we seen such a predictable relationship between a father and daughter? While the sentiment was sweet, a little originality would have gone a long way.

The Championship Match, written by Julia Moser ’15, Sun staff writer, and directed by Brian Murphy ’16, was my definite favorite. The play features a woman named Ellie who has been dumped, but her coach is the real star of the play. The coach is an invisible alter-ego who gives the protagonist the self-confidence and strength to face her ex-boyfriend and tell him how she really feels about their relationship. While the coach draws a diagram on a blackboard indicating how exactly Ellie should handle her awkward situation, the audience laughs at Ellie’s total incompetency. At one point, she claims she is seeing someone new, who happens to be her cat, but since her ex does not know this, hilarity ensues with the coach wringing his hands in frustration and Ellie meekly wincing at her own awkwardness. This play is not only hilarious and clever; it also imbues its female protagonist with the self-confidence she needs to deal with her jerk of an ex.

The fourth play, Herstory, written by Addy Davidoff ’15 and directed by Maayan Wayn grad, was by far the most experimental. I am not exactly sure what the events of the play were, but I do not think that that was as important as the tone and style of the piece. Featuring a cast of all women, the raw emotions and eerie ambience certainly left an impression on me. This play was powerful especially because it was done in a black box theater; all of the emphasis was put on the actresses and very little was placed on props or costumes. The piece dealt with the issues of violation of privacy and recovery, and the most haunting moment of the piece occurred when

one of the characters looked each audience member in the eyes and asked, “Did it really happen?”

An Ear for an Ear, written by Scott Chiusano ’15, Sun Sports Editor, and directed by Erin Stoneking,grad, involved a clown and questions of legitimacy and abandonment. I suppose it sounds quite strange, but it was actually the most realistic of the plays. Both actors in this play executed their roles perfectly, expressing both the need to be involved in a child’s life and the need for closure. I found myself wishing that there had been more time for the actors to go deeper into their characters’ pasts.

Finally, Turtle Beach, written by Aoise Stratford, grad, and directed by Sarah Byrne ’15, Sun Columnist, was by far the most adorable. Simply put: Two female turtles must find their ways onto a beach in order to lay their eggs; one of the turtles is very experienced while the other has never ventured out of the ocean before. The ensuing dialogue was not only hilarious, but also quite existential. The younger turtle worries about leaving her babies to be eaten or swept away, while all she wants to do is enjoy the sight of the moon, and the older turtle just wants to lay her eggs and leave the beach. A simple, yet quirky concept was executed exceptionally well.

In all, 10-Minute Playfest was an absolute joy to watch and left me with a lot of questions as well as a lot of new ideas about performance. The fact that everything was written, directed and acted by students made the experience all the more exciting. And if you ever have a chance to watch a black box theater performance, take it, because you never know how organic and unique the performances might be.

The Day of You’re Dead: The Lowdown on FlyLo

O

riginally, I was going to write this column about Facebook’s recent efforts to ruin all fun by labeling posts from The Onion, Clickhole and other satirical news sites as satire.” I mean, come on. There is a thriving economy being built around those Facebook users (i.e. your grandparents) who cannot distinguish real news from headlines like “Obama Informs Nation Anarchy Will Reign During Search for New Attorney General” — just check out literallyunbelievable.org for proof.

Instead, though, I feel like exploring a topic that’s a bit more light-hearted: The final moments preceding death. You see, this week, Flying Lotus unleashed You’re Dead, his mind-bendingly psychedelic opus, upon us mere mortals, in a 24-hour streaming session he coyly titled the “Day of You’re Dead.” In just 45 minutes, FlyLo set out to explore the final moments before we pass on, aided by a bevy of guest acts and a commitment to throwing together a smorgasbord of musical trends. Rarely will you find an album informed in equal part by hard-bop, prog-jazz, hip hop, nu-soul and modern dance music, but Flying Lotus makes it look easy — and sound great.

It’s worth exploring some of the sources FlyLo draws from on You’re Dead (which will be officially released on October 6 via Brainfeeder).

Knowing this stuff will make you the coolest dude or gal at the party, even if that party is super weird to begin with and involves listening to FlyLo … actually, if you start hearing Flying Lotus at a party, I would leave, as you have probably just entered an opium den. Even so, it also provides a great excuse to take a look at some of the greatest albums of the 20th and early 21st century. Jazz is back, you guys!

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

JOHN COLTRANE, A LOVE SUPREME The relationship between John Coltrane and Stephen Ellison (Flying Lotus’ human name) is both physical and spiritual. That sounds like bullshit, but hear me out: Ellison is the great nephew of Mr. Coltrane and his wife, the famed jazz instrumentalist and composer Alice Coltrane. And while it’s difficult to draw a straightforward comparison between John Coltrane and FlyLo, Coltrane’s 1965 masterpiece A Love Supreme provides an interesting contrast to Ellison’s latest work. As the first in a long line of albums with an overarching thesis, it’s likely that You’re Dead would never exist at all without Coltrane’s magnum opus.

Rather than traversing the moments before his demise, Coltrane’s album is a prayer for redemption and a communication with the beyond from a man whose dealings with drugs and alcohol had brought him fearfully close to death. Split into four movements that sound like they were pulled from an A.A. meeting — “Acknowledgement,” “Resolution,” “Pursuance” and “Psalm” — the album b u i l d s toward a climactic solo, during w h i c h ‘ Tr a n e There’s No Place recites a devotional Like Brome p o e m through his sax. Does it get more avant-garde than that?

And yet, the album is marked by breathtaking beauty and transcendence that hasn’t lost its appeal over the years.

Sam Bromer

MILES DAVIS, BITC0HES BREW Bitches Brew’s cover art is absolutely captivating. Matti Klarwein’s visual rendering of the album’s avant-garde sonic themes succeeds against all odds at capturing the artist’s iconoclastic vision. But the most important aspect of the cover might be the text placed right above the title: “Directions in Music

by Miles Davis.”

This fine print is not hyperbolic: Davis is known as a musical innovator who, i n c r e d i b l y, changed the entire landscape of the jazz world at least five times.

Of all his innovations, though, Bitches Brew might be his most controversial. Davis employed two bass players, three drummers, three electric piano players and a percussionist to play these songs, in order to allow his soloists to explore the furthest reaches of their instruments. In doing so, they managed to alienate much of Davis’ traditional fanbase and, ultimately, to create the second best-selling jazz album of all time. The chaotic, dissonant and often mind-altering improvisation of Bitches Brew can be found in equal measure on You’re Dead. Ellison has said that Davis “marked the beginning of [his] appreciation of jazz.

You never really felt like you knew everything about him. You’d hear his music, and there’d be mystery.” Judging from the quality of his latest work, I am sure that, were Miles still around, the admiration would be mutual.

HERBIE HANCOCK, MAIDEN VOYAGE Before moving forward with his concept for You’re Dead, Ellison has remarked that he first had to ask Herbie Hancock for permission (yes, unlike these other jazz greats, Herbie is, thankfully, still alive). That the two have now worked together seems at once to be the strangest and most natural thing in the world. In 1965, at the tender age of 24, Herbie Hancock released a concept album of his own — and a classic at that. On his

COURTESY OF FLYING LOTUS

Maiden Voyage, he set out to recreate the ocean through jazz. The work itself is a serene, windswept journey, pocked by storms and rogue waves. Hancock succeeded in capturing his watery subject and, more importantly, in establishing himself as one of the greatest pianists and composers of the modern era.

Hancock’s contribution to You’re Dead comes in the form of a track called “Moment of Hesitation,” and on the track, he displays his more experimental side. Alongside Thundercat, Hancock’s rhythmic, dreamlike vamping is weaved perfectly into FlyLo’s mix. As a jazz fan, there is really nothing more heart-warming than seeing commenters on SoundCloud calling a song featuring Herbie Hancock “fire,” “filthy” and “insane.” I can only hope that You’re Dead exposes a new generation of music listeners to the rest of his heady, gorgeous tunes, and, more generally, to the world of experimental jazz. Maybe one day, I won’t have to sit alone in the corner of a dark room and talk to myself about strange time signatures and unexpected chord progressions.

Cruz Powers Orioles Past Tigers DETROIT (AP) — Nelson Cruz, Buck Showalter and an unheralded bunch from Baltimore swept aside Detroit's Cy Young winners.

Cruz sliced a two-run homer for his latest big postseason hit, and the Orioles held off the Tigers 2-1 Sunday to reach the AL Championship Series for the first time since 1997.

Bud Norris outpitched David Price in Game 3 of the AL Division Series. The Tigers scored in the ninth and put the tying run on second with no outs, but Orioles closer Zach Britton escaped the jam and lifted Showalter into his first LCS in 16 seasons as a big league manager.

Baltimore opens the ALCS on Friday at home against Kansas City or at the Los Angeles Angels.

Cruz's homer was the 16th of his postseason career, including eight against the Tigers. He was the MVP of the 2011 ALCS for Texas in a six-game victory over Detroit.

Cruz spent much of this past offseason without a team after serving a 50-game suspension last year for violating baseball's drug agreement.

Norris pitched twohit ball for 6 1-3 innings, and Andrew Miller got five straight outs to keep the shutout going.

Victor Martinez and J.D. Martinez opened the ninth with back-to-

back doubles off Britton. Bryan Holaday struck out after a failed bunt attempt, and Showalter made the unconventional decision to put the winning run on base by intentionally walking Nick Castellanos.

That meant the bottom of Detroit's lineup would have to come through. The Tigers sent up Hernan Perez — who had five at-bats in the regular season — to pinch hit, and bounced a 96 mph fastball into a 5-4-3 double play. It was Britton's second save of the series.

Cruz led the majors with 40 homers this season, and the Orioles topped baseball with 211. It was his two-run homer in the first inning of the opener that set

the tone for this series, and he came through again in the sixth inning against Price. Cruz's drive cleared the wall in right, about 2 feet to the left of the foul pole.

Not bad for a guy the Orioles signed in late February. Cruz turned down a $14.1 million qualifying offer that would have kept him with Texas — but he ended up having to settle for an $8 million, one-year contract with Baltimore that included $750,000 in roster bonuses.

Cruz's powerful bat enabled the Orioles to withstand season-ending injuries to Manny Machado and Matt Wieters, as well as Chris Davis' 25-game suspension for an amphetamine violation.

ale and Harvard remained the last two unbeaten teams in the Ivy League, as both squads won easily on Saturday. Princeton also stayed in the running with an easy conference victory over Columbia.

Harvard was caught up in non-league play, taking on Georgetown on the road. The Crimson went into Washington D.C. with purpose, embarassing the Hoyas on their home field in a 34-3 rout. Harvard quarterback Scott Hosch was a model of efficiency, completing 20 of his 25 passes for 293 yards and a touchdown. Running back Andrew Casten torched the Hoya defense, rushing for 139 yards and a game-high four touchdowns.

Yale traveled to Ithaca for the Ivy opener for both teams. The Bulldogs put 51 points on the scoreboard, and quarterback Morgan Roberts threw for 312 yards and five touchdowns.

The Cornell women’s soccer team evened out its Ivy MICHAELA BREW / SUN CONTRIBUTOR League results by beating Penn 3-2 at home on Friday.

Then with 2:45 left, Penn cut Cornell’s lead to just one, but the Red’s defense proved too steady for the Quakers in the end. The game finished with Cornell on top, 3-2, giving the Red its first win over Penn since 1996 and ending a 15-game losing streak against the Quakers in the process.

Tierney gave particular praise to the team’s defense in helping Cornell hold on for the victory, though she said she still believes the team can improve its physicality before its next game.

“The defense was strong throughout the whole game, doing especially well covering for each other,” Tierney said. “This week we are looking to focus on defending against through balls and staying physical when challenging for the ball.”

Cornell is back in action on Monday evening on the road against Colgate University, before traveling to Harvard for its next Ivy League game on Friday.

yard free kick goal from Penn midfielder Forrest Clancy found the back of the net to put the visitors on the score sheet, something the Red failed to do despite playing a strong game overall.

“Soccer is a cruel game. Penn had fewer chances than us, yet [they] were still able to escape with a win,” said senior captain Devin Morgan.

The Red took 12 shots to Penn’s eight, but Quaker goalkeeper Max Polkinhore made five saves on the day. Within the first four minutes, senior captain and defenseman Peter Chodas and sophomore forward Rafik Mekhaldi had made attempts on the Penn goal, but both shots missed the target. The first half of play was more even than the second, in which the Red took five corner kicks compared to Penn’s three and took seven shots whereas Penn only had four attempts on goal.

The only breakthrough of the game was Clancy’s goal in the 58th minute. Penn was awarded a free kick from 35 yards out, a sizeable distance from Cornell senior goalkeeper Zach Zagorski. Clancy opted to take a chance and was See M. SOCCER page 13

The Red secondary struggled to keep up with the Bulldogs receivers as Roberts, who came into the game leading a Bulldogs charge that was averaging 654 yards of total offense, threw threads to open receivers throughout the game en route to Cornell’s 51-13 loss.

“Not taking anything away from Yale, but there was some miscommunication and we need to work on formation recognition that we wanted. We were able to correct that later on, but it got on us in a hurry,” said head coach David Archer ‘05. “It was a combination of explosiveness, particularly with a couple of their players. Deon Randall is a very special, very explosive player and you have to be able to account for him, and there was a breakdown on our part, but still a very good job by him.”

On top of their explosive production in the pass and run game, the Bulldogs kept the Red offense off the field. Cornell’s offense did not generate a first See FOOTBALL page 13
