COVER STORY | BY JEREMY MOULE | PAGE 8 | PHOTO ILLUSTRATION BY MAX SEIFERT

Bored to death With its vibrant, metallic green shell, the tiny emerald ash borer is almost a thing of beauty. Or it could be, if it wasn’t so destructive.

The invasive beetle, which is native to Asia, has laid waste to vast tracts of ash trees in states west of New York. And now it’s in Monroe County: there have been two confirmed infestations so far.

The emerald ash borer issue is one of balance.

Several species of wasp keep the ash borer in check in

the beetle’s native habitat, but here, no such predator exists. A domestic wasp species will prey on the beetle, though it’s not accustomed to doing so. And woodpeckers will eat the larvae. But neither is expected to significantly stem the infestation.

Over time, the beetle’s impact will be noticeable.

Foresters expect that much of the nation’s ash population will be wiped out and replaced by different tree species.

In the meantime, they’re trying to slow the tree losses.

Government and our mistrust

I read with interest your “Tea Party Nation” piece (Urban Journal, July 27), in which you leaned heavily to the left. Interestingly, you end the piece wondering about who the American people will trust. (We’ll find out whether the American people trust Obama or Boehner.) Let me tell you something: I trust neither of them, and frankly most people I know are in the same boat.

It is an unfortunate reality that our government is now run by people who care more about serving their own interest than actually doing any good for the country.

The funny thing is that people on both sides of the Democratic and Republicans divide seem to be of the same mind on this subject.

You try to imply that the unwillingness to compromise on new taxes is somehow a problem for Republicans and others on the right. You are insulting people who made a public pledge that no new taxes would be implemented. The problem again becomes one of trust: if our elected officials can’t be held to pledges they have publicly made, what good are they and why should they be trusted?

It really is that simple; compromise on something you publicly pledged not to do (to get elected, mind you) is not something we need from our elected officials. You can’t expect trustworthy government if you demand untrustworthy behavior.

Now to the problem of the media and the left (one and the same to most of us) whining about the trouble a spending cut will cause. First, it can actually have a very positive impact on the economy, especially if you attack the degenerative nature of spending on social services and welfare.

Just imagine if all those people too lazy to get off their dead asses actually had to get up and work for their bread and water. Suffi-

ciently cut waste on social spending, and we might have a little left over to spend on new technologies and other things that might help the economy. For example, R&D on nuclear technology.

Where the left seems to really lose its credibility is with the idea that spending on social programs improves the economy. In the end, special-interest social spending is like owning a boat: it is a big hole in the water one throws money into.

The wrong path to development

Like Mary Anna Towler, I too am concerned about the composition of our Regional Economic Development Council commissioned

by Governor Cuomo (“Growing This State,” August 3).

While the council is too corporate-heavy, it is also strikingly devoid of people with community and regional planning backgrounds who understand regional land use and development dynamics and their effects on tax revenues and tax burdens. These people know that our prevailing regional development pattern — lots of new development in the absence of population growth — is overall very expensive to governments and therefore to taxpayers.

Unfortunately, I surmise that just about all the representatives on our regional council are oblivious to this pattern and its ramifications, and we therefore run the risk of growing an already huge irony: in our quest to increase tax revenue and reduce tax burdens on governments and citizens, we will just make the burdens bigger.

If our Regional Economic Development Council does not make cooperative regional land use and development planning a key facet of our regional economic development plan, we will just keep growing the wrong way and won’t achieve even an economic zero sum game region-wide.

From our website

On our report on school board member Van White’s concern about condoms in schools: The article

notes that I indicated that I wasn’t sure that “sex education was such a good idea.” That quote (which is accurate) needs to be clarified and put

in the context in which it was made.

I was talking at length about how the decisions of government were progressively encroaching upon the duties and responsibilities of parents — “first sex education, now condom distribution, what next?”

Yes, I know that many parents don’t offer this critical guidance.

But do you see suburban schools offering condoms, where there is widespread evidence that teens are engaging in unsafe sex? And will the district’s progressive involvement into this area make the institution of family more viable? I am not convinced that the answer is yes. In fact, this may be a classic case of one institution enabling the other. Perhaps our STD rates go down. This is a VERY good thing.

But what happens to families when we progressively relieve them of their duties and obligations?

Not all of our government’s actions (particularly with respect to urban families) have been positive.

Look at early welfare legislation and regulation that threatened women with the loss of benefits if there was any evidence that a man was in their home. Nothing about those policies and regulations was productive or pro-family. In fact, those early regulations proved to be destructive (over the long haul) to urban families and people of color.

The very social dysfunction that some are trying to prevent today (by the distribution of condoms in schools) was created by this same kind of intrusive and racially selective “I know what’s best for you and your family” point of view decades ago. (And yes, I continue to be a registered Democrat. lol) Which brings me back to my original point. I believe that when sex education is offered in a comprehensive way, it provides our youth with information essential to their ability to make positive choices in life. But providing condoms is different than providing information.

And if we’re going to take that “next” step, we should do so only after considering ALL of the possible consequences of our actions.

If we don’t, the next step for the urban family (as an institution) might be down that proverbial “slippery slope” from which we may never recover.

While we wait: the Paetec fallout Uncertainty is certainly the new reality for downtown Rochester, isn’t it?

It may be five or six months before we learn whether Windstream will follow through on Paetec’s commitment to build at Midtown. Mayor Tom Richards is trying to sell Windstream CEO Jeffery Gardner on the project, but Gardner will have his company’s interests in mind, not those of downtown Rochester.

And by the way, the Rochester Business Journal’s Will Astor notes an additional piece of uncertainty: the Windstream-Paetec merger isn’t guaranteed. Windstream’s offer is so low that other companies might jump in with more attractive bids. In addition, notes Astor: “Within a day of the merger announcement, a dozen law firms announced plans to investigate the deal as potentially unfair to shareholders.”

If Windstream doesn’t build? Given the economic climate, the region’s sluggish growth, and the depressing effect of a nobuild decision, we would likely be waiting a lot longer than five or six months to see something start to happen. Some sources we talked to over the past week suggest that the Midtown site could be vacant as long as 10 years.

In the short term, though, we have decisions to make.

And while there’s no bright side to this, there are opportunities — if we’re careful, and if we recognize them.

Let’s start with where we are, and what is

realistic about the future.

First, it seems pretty clear that even if Windstream builds something at Midtown, it won’t be its national headquarters. As former Mayor Bill Johnson puts it: “There’s no way that a company is going to move its headquarters from a low-tax state to Upstate New York.”

Second, securing development for the Midtown site won’t be easy. The country has been in one of the toughest real estate slumps in its history, notes Bostonbased architect Jon Lane, who in the past has advised Rochester on downtown development issues.

Nationally, says Lane, “it’s a tough moment we’re having, and there’s no sign that it’s going away.” It’s extremely difficult for real estate developers to obtain financing, he notes.

And if Windstream doesn’t build at Midtown, the news will dampen other

You don’t want to grab at whatever comes along just to fill up space,” says one downtown development expert. development interest. “No question,” says Rochester Downtown Development Corporation President Heidi Zimmer-Meyer.

There will definitely be a domino effect, says Kent Gardner, CEO of Rochester’s Center for Governmental Research.

For instance: Christa-Morgan’s proposed high-end condominium tower, also planned for the Midtown site, wasn’t a sure thing even before the Paetec announcement.

Full funding for that project hasn’t been secured, and it’s reasonable to assume that a selling point for its viability has been its location near the national headquarters of a communications company.

In addition, Greater Rochester “is not the strongest market,” says Jon Lane, who got to know Rochester well as the consultant for Vision 2000, the city’s big downtown planning effort completed in 1990.

Despite our weakness, development continues in Rochester’s suburbs, so the city has to compete with its neighbors for every scrap it gets. Which raises a question: Can the Greater Rochester region support more development? After all, by the end, the Paetec development wasn’t new; it was simply moving from one part of Monroe County to another.

And yet: if the City of Rochester doesn’t fight for some kind of development at Midtown, we’ll be left with a big hole. Or a vacant lot.

Green confirmation delayed

The Senate left Washington without confirming Monroe County District Attorney Mike Green’s appointment as a federal district court judge. Democrats say they still expect Green to be confirmed, it’ll just happen after the recess. Green is not running for re-election to DA. In his place, Dems have endorsed Sandra Doorley, appeals bureau chief in the DA’s office.

Moore heads to MCC

Former Rochester Police Chief David Moore was selected as Monroe Community College’s head of public safety. Moore was working as director of the city’s Office of Public Integrity and will be replaced

DOT to study intermodal station

The State Department of Transportation said it plans to spend $3.5 million studying an intermodal station for Rochester. The effort will be funded in part through a $2.9-million grant secured by Representative Louise Slaughter. The city is spending $600,000 for an economic study of the proposal.

Greens announce candidates

The Green Party of Monroe County will run a handful of candidates for offices across Monroe County. Former mayoral candidate Alex White is seeking the South District City Council seat held by Adam McFadden.

McFadden is seeking reelection, but faces a primary challenge from Democrat Diane Watkins. The Green Party also endorsed the Community Education Task Force Slate for Educational Change for Rochester school board. The slate consists of three candidates: Howard Eagle, Mary Adams, and Wallace Smith. The three candidates have also filed to run as Democrats, forcing a primary for the four available seats.

Nozzolio wants fracking ban for Finger Lakes

Republican Senator Mike Nozzolio says he wants the State Department of Environmental Conservation to ban hydraulic fracturing in all Finger Lakes watersheds. The DEC has recommended banning fracking near the Skaneateles Lake and Catskills watersheds.

Nozzolio, a Seneca County Republican, wrote the DEC and said that the protections recommended for Skaneateles Lake should be afforded to all Finger Lakes watersheds.

Mark IV Enterprises plans to build high-end apartments at 75 Monroe Avenue, the site of the former Monoco Oil asphalt plant in the Village of Pittsford. Photo by matt deturck DEVELOPMENT | BY JEREMY MOULE

Pittsford housing project moving forward A major residential development project in the Village of Pittsford is moving forward, while the developers and village officials continue to hash out the details.

Mark IV Enterprises originally proposed building 185 high-end apartments, a restaurant, and 1,000 feet of publicly accessible canal docking at 75 Monroe Avenue. That’s the site of the former Monoco Oil asphalt plant, which was shut down years ago by a judge’s order.

The site serves as a gateway to the village, so Pittsford officials say they want to make sure any project built there reflects the village’s character.

Mark IV representatives and Pittsford officials have been trying to agree on issues like building height and appearance, density, and the size of the project.

“We want something that looks, functions, and feels like an integral part of the Village of Pittsford,” Mayor Bob Corby says They have reached agreement on some issues, and Mark IV officials made changes to the design. Notably, the developers reworked the concept so that the buildings reflect historic canal village-style architecture, says Chris DiMarzo, chief operating officer at Mark IV. The concept also

includes varied rooflines and villagestyle streetscapes with parallel parking, he says.

DiMarzo also says that his company has agreed to reduce the number of apartment units by about 10 percent.

“We’re making positive steps,” he says.

Mark IV officials will continue to meet with village trustees as the project works its way through reviews.

DiMarzo says he hopes the project is approved this year so construction can begin in the spring.

The development would be the village’s largest-ever project.

City Council member Adam McFadden has postponed a vote on a new contract for the Center for Dispute Settlement, which oversees the Civilian Review Board for the RPD. McFadden said that, among other things, he’d like to know why more citizen complaints against police aren’t sustained by the board.

McFadden plans overhaul of police oversight

City Hall agrees to bonding

City Council member Adam McFadden is heading up a 15-member commission to revamp oversight of the Rochester Police Department.

In a phone conversation, McFadden made it clear that he plans a substantial overhaul, and will begin with a look at the Civilian Review Board, the body that reviews certain investigations into citizen complaints against the RPD. The board is made up of trained mediators provided by the Center for Dispute Settlement.

McFadden, who is chair of Council’s Public Safety Committee, has postponed a vote on a new contract for CDS. The agency’s previous contract expired at the end of June.

“I put it on hold because I think when you look at some of the things that were coming up about the process, I thought the timing dictated that it should be held,” McFadden said. “There are a lot of questions that the community seems to have.”

McFadden said that, among other things, he’d personally like to know why more citizen complaints against police aren’t sustained by the Civilian Review Board.

In response, a CDS Adam McFadden. representative says that FILE PHOTO

Work on the more than $1-billion project to modernize city schools will not stop, says City Council President Lovely Warren, despite a letter from Gilbane Inc. demanding payment, or else. | Gilbane, the company managing the massive construction project, says it has not been paid for more than a year’s labor and may stop work if not paid soon. | Warren says the city will issue bond anticipation notes to help fund the $29 million for part of the initial phase of the project, since the city school district cannot borrow money, “but it’s a temporary solution.” | City officials are concerned that issuing the bonds could increase the amount the city is required to pay the school district every year under the Maintenance of Effort law, and that, they say, is unacceptable. City Hall sought legislation from the state to protect itself from an increase in the MOE, but dueling bills emerged in the State Senate and Assembly and no resolution was achieved. | In a letter released on Friday, Mayor Tom Richards said that the city will issue this first bond, but nothing more until state legislation is passed.

the agency’s five-year average of sustained complaints is about 12 and-one-half percent, which is consistent with places around the country with oversight organizations.

McFadden says members of the commission will come from the police chief’s office, the police union, Council’s Public Safety Committee, the city’s religious community, City Hall’s law department, and others.

The RPD has been under scrutiny as a result of two recent high-profile arrests: one of activist Emily Good, and the other of County Legislator Willie Lightfoot. Police arrested Good on an obstruction charge while she was videotaping an RPD traffic stop — though police say Good was not arrested for videotaping. The district attorney’s office later dismissed the charge. Lightfoot pleaded guilty to DWI, but later denied guilt, saying he did it to get the matter behind him. Lightfoot also protested his treatment by the RPD. Neither Good nor Lightfoot filed an official complaint, saying they don’t trust the system.

McFadden said he will meet with CDS representatives to learn more about the civilian review program.

“Until we dig into the whole process and come out with some type of findings, I really don’t know what needs to change,” he said.

The Paetec fallout continues from page 3

One is to get city leaders to take a step back and form a clearer vision for downtown, says Joni Monroe, executive director of the Rochester Regional Community Design Center.

“We seem to have a propensity for getting involved with projects,” says Monroe. “It’s sad, but this really illustrates the importance of having a plan. We’ve been trying to point out that we have 30 something projects, and we’re so very fortunate to have all of this development. But we need a blueprint that puts all of this into context. It’s about looking at it as a ‘whole’ versus a ‘hole.’”

Tom Murphy agrees. “What needs to happen is the development of some kind of master plan that creates an additional value to downtown Rochester,” Murphy says. The city is fortunate to have control over the Midtown site, he says. And it’s fortunate that the state funded the demolition of structures that weren’t attracting reuse.

“The question is: What kind of city does Rochester want to be in the 21st century?” says Murphy. Rochester has to look at this as an opportunity to redefine its land use rather than as a crisis, he says.

“You don’t want to grab at whatever comes along just to fill up space,” Murphy says. And green space in the center of the city, though every city treasurer would like to see taxable development, is not a bad thing.”

Jon Lane warns, though, that we’ll have to be flexible. “I’m an architect, so to me plans are important,” he says. “But if you’re too rigid, you may plan a party that nobody attends. In a hot market, developers are tripping over themselves with proposals.

But in a colder market like Rochester’s, the challenge is to get people to make proposals that are viable.”

The advice from CGR’s Kent Gardner: “If I were Tom Richards, I’d say: Let’s figure out a plan so that this doesn’t hurt us if it sits vacant for 10 years. Make the space as appealing as possible.”

As an example, both Gardner and Tom Murphy bring up Millenium Park, a dramatic, 24.5-acre park in downtown Chicago whose sculptures, Frank-Gehrydesigned concert shell, and garden have drawn millions of Chicagoans and visitors since it opened in 2004.

Rochester isn’t Chicago, and Rochester couldn’t come up with the $475 million in city and private donations that funded it. Besides, Rochester’s downtown already has parks, one of them only two blocks away. It probably doesn’t need another permanent park. But Gardner suggests that we might do something temporary — maybe have Albert Paley and others create something “cool and functional” that would draw people to the site in the interim.

Whatever happens, while the city looks for new development, the Midtown parcel “shouldn’t become a surface parking lot, or a big meadow,” says Gardner. “I would like to think that some clever landscape architects could come up with something.”

And like Murphy, Gardner urges patience: “Don’t jump too soon at something that wouldn’t be the best use.”

And from former Mayor Bill Johnson, this advice: “The community as a whole needs to

work with the mayor to solve this problem.”

And Johnson suggests that the history of the Hyatt Hotel could be a model.

As many Rochesterians remember, construction of the Hyatt stalled in the late 1980’s when its developer ran into financial trouble and the city forced him out and took over the property. For three years, the hotel’s steel framework at the corner of Main Street and South Avenue was a daily reminder of the problems — and of the failure of a development that City Hall had touted.

Work resumed, and the hotel was completed, after an extraordinary effort by then-Mayor Tom Ryan and a partnership of Xerox, Wegmans, Rochester Telephone, Rochester Gas & Electric, the Gleason Memorial Fund, Kodak, Chase Lincoln

First Bank, Central Trust, Bausch & Lomb, Wilmorite, the University of Rochester, and RIT. Helping bring it off: city and state funds and $10 million from the partners.

As Johnson notes, that was a different era: “All these companies had local principals.”

And it’s hard to imagine that in this economic climate, local business and university leaders will come up with any money to spur any kind of development. But money wasn’t the most important thing about the Hyatt deal.

The thing to take away from the Hyatt story is this: Rochester’s top corporate leaders were convinced that downtown Rochester was important. They were willing to step forward, with their reputations and their money, in a commitment to downtown.

It’s that commitment that we should be pressing for.

Maybe if a similar group of leaders put their heads together they could come up with a new development proposal. Could RIT and the UR, for instance, create a forprofit technology center on the Midtown site? This region already has building space going begging, but could a Hyatt-like group of leaders flex their muscle and insist that downtown must come first?

And regardless of an RIT-UR creation, could the top corporate and educational

leaders convince political leaders throughout the county that downtown Rochester must come first? For instance: that the COMIDA give-aways and the push for a creation of a hotel-retail complex at the former Irondequoit Mall must take a back seat to shoring up the core of the region?

Can the governor’s new RochesterFinger Lakes Economic Development Council make a downtown commitment part of their proposal?

Downtown Rochester is not facing this challenge because of anything the City of Rochester has done. It is facing this challenge because it continues to be in a battle with its siblings, its suburbs. And far too much public policy puts its thumb on the suburban side of the scales.

If we are going to look for opportunity out of the Paetec sale — if we are going to look for a silver lining — this is it. We will never have metropolitan government, at least not in any of our lifetimes (no matter your age).

But we could have intelligent planning and development policy. We could get community and political leaders to agree, at last, that the fate of the region is tied to the fate of the City of Rochester and its downtown.

ith its vibrant, metallic green shell, the tiny emerald ash borer is almost a thing of beauty. Or it could be, if it wasn’t so destructive.

The invasive beetle, which is native to Asia, has laid waste to vast tracts of ash trees in states west of New York. The beetle caught some communities by surprise early in its decade-long spread, leaving tree casualties totaling in the millions, consisting of every variety of ash. Clear-cut streets became emblematic of the infestations.

“Because we’re in the middle of the fire, it ain’t going to be a pretty scene for us,” says Walt Nelson, horticulture program director for Cornell Cooperative Extension of Monroe County.

Some of the most jarring visuals from the Midwest will probably be avoided here, however, since state and local agencies planned in advance for the beetle’s arrival. But local and regional foresters say that over time, the impact from the ash borer beetle will be noticeable.

This is not the first time the United States has faced a plague that decimates tree populations. Blight nearly wiped out the American chestnut, and researchers are still trying to develop resistant varieties of the tree.

Dutch elm disease decimated elm tree populations in many cities, villages, and towns. Large numbers of elms were removed from alongside streets, and ash trees became a common replacement. It now seems like a cruel twist of fate.

Locally, statewide, and nationally ash trees face a dire future. The emerald ash borer has no significant North American predator to keep it in check, so it is spreading across the country and into Canada.

“The eventual loss of the majority of ash trees in North America should be anticipated,” says a report from the US Forest Service.

The beetle is already too entrenched to wipe the pest out, says John Gibbs, regional forester for the State Department of Environmental Conservation’s Region 8 office. Officials are instead focused on slowing the loss of ash trees. The idea — forestry pros call it slow ash mortality — is to expand the window of time that communities and individuals have to remove and replace the trees. Preservation is also an option, but it comes with considerable long-term costs.

The theory is that the ash borer entered the

country in Detroit, possibly riding in on City

wooden pallets or packing originating in Asia. From there it spread across Michigan and into 15 states. It has also spread into the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Quebec, both of which border states with confirmed infestations. The beetle was likely spread by moving around infested trees, logs, and firewood.

The beetle was first found in New York in June 2009 when the DEC confirmed an infestation in a Cattaraugus County town. It was discovered last year on private land in the Town of Chili, and this year has been found in trees at the city’s Upper Falls Park on St. Paul Street.

A city forestry technician went to the park to measure other dead trees for removal when he noticed some of the signs of ash borer infestation, says city forester Brian Liberti.

On further inspection, the tech found the beetle’s signature D-shaped exit holes, Liberti says. The tech also found a standing, dead tree across the road that appeared to have a longterm infestation, Liberti says. In total, 17 trees were infested.

“We found some live larvae, we found some adults,” Liberti says.

“They looked to be last year’s adults that maybe got stuck in the bark trying to emerge, didn’t quite make it, and died right there.”

Some of the park’s infested trees have been removed. Others will remain until flying season is over: a precautionary measure against moving trees that could host live adult beetles.

A single adult female can lay as many as 100 eggs on a tree.

Emerald ash borers are small — several can fit on the head of a coin — which makes spotting them difficult. But there are indicators: thinning canopies and dying branches; holes and flecked bark from woodpeckers, which eat the larvae; and even colonies of a wasp that will eat the beetles, though it’s not accustomed to doing so.

as the larvae ate through cambium, the part of the tree that carries water and nutrients.

The larvae eat through the cambium, which is what kills the tree.

The city started preparing for the ash borer well

in advance of its arrival. Much of New York did, including the state agencies that deal with trees and forests. DEC and the Department of Agriculture and Markets have implemented and enforced quarantines, coordinated educational campaigns about the beetle, developed plans for dealing with the pest on state land, and worked with local governments to help them develop plans of their own.

There’s good reason. Ash trees make up more than 7 percent of the state’s tree population, says information on the DEC’s web site. Density varies, however, so some places will notice ash declines more than others. Ash trees make up 25 percent of the forest in some areas along Lake Ontario, says Cornell Cooperative’s Nelson. Monroe and other counties along Lake Ontario have higher ash density than many other parts of the state.

The DEC’s Gibbs says there are just fewer than 200 million ash trees one-inch thick or larger in DEC Region 8. He estimates that about 27 million of those are located in Monroe County.

“To lose maybe one tree in 10 down in Steuben County where they’re more uniformly distributed across the landscape, that’s going to be much different than if you’re looking at hundreds of acres of ash forest in some places in Monroe County,” he says.

Ashes are common wetland trees so a die-off may change the character of those areas as well.

The City of Rochester had about 5,000 ash trees before it started gradually removing them, Liberti says. Most of the ashes are street

The federal Forest Service has been breeding three species of wasps, natural predators from the emerald ash borer’s native Asian habitat. The wasps keep the borer in check, and researchers hope they’ll do the same in the United States. Researchers don’t expect the wasps to have any other significant impact on the environment.

trees, but some were in parks and in Mt. Hope and Riverside Cemeteries.

The city’s immediate approach has been to remove trees that are already in poor condition.

It’s also in the process of chemically treating 4,300 trees to prevent infestation, which Liberti says will cost $190,000.

“If all of these trees were to become infested at one time or die at one time, then it becomes very difficult for us to keep up with removing trees that become hazardous,” he says.

Dead trees can collapse, which endangers people and property. And ash roots rot quickly, which makes them even less stable.

Mass tree death or infestation would also impose a substantial budgetary burden, Liberti says.

Rochester officials plan to gradually replace the city’s ash trees over the next 16 years. The city stopped planting ash trees several years ago, when officials learned the borer was headed their way. The city is replacing ash trees with approximately 40 different species of trees, depending on the site.

Monroe County is in a slightly different position than the city. It’s assessing and

monitoring trees along county highways, in parks, and on the grounds of Monroe Community Hospital.

The county may replant some areas, such as parts of Black Creek Park in Chili where ash trees are densely clustered. It’ll also have to make decisions about which trees to treat: ash trees in the arboretums at Highland and Durand-Eastman Parks could be candidates.

The decision could be based on a tree’s value or the county’s potential liability if a tree were to fall and cause injury or damage.

But the county also oversees 12,000 acres of parkland, much of it forested. Treating or removing all of the ash trees would be impractical, says Mark Quinn, Monroe County’s superintendent of horticulture.

Instead, the county will focus on trees near shelters or on the lawns, he says.

If ash trees die in the middle of a forested area they won’t pose a hazard to park visitors, Quinn says, so they’ll be left to nature. Other trees will move in and replace the ashes, foresters say, with odds favoring the red maple.

Quinn says he hopes researchers find an effective biological treatment to help preserve ash trees in forests.

as well, though not on as large a scale. Nelson says the beetle is more widespread than many people believe. He says he’s seen the D-shaped exit holes in locations outside of the confirmed infestations in Chili and the city.

He says the first question he has for land owners who ask about their ashes is: “How much do you love that tree?”

If they want to keep certain trees — whether for aesthetic or sentimental reasons or because the trees add to the property’s value — they should have the trees assessed by arborists. If the trees are healthy, then people may be able to use one of two highlyeffective chemical treatments. The treatments would have to be reapplied periodically for as long as someone wants to preserve a tree, which can get expensive.

Otherwise, property owners should plan to have the trees removed. Oh, and don’t plant new ash trees.

Woodlot owners have different advice to follow: they can work with the DEC to develop a management plan, or they can “girdle” some trees — essentially killing them by cutting a ring through the bark and cambium — to try to attract the insect to them, and then they can cut the trees down and burn them as firewood.

Ongoing research in Randolph, the Cattaraugus County town where the state’s first infestation was found, shows that the approach is effective, the DEC’s Gibbs says.

Whether any ashes will survive the

emerald ash borer invasion is a question no one can answer.

But people are working to collect seeds and also to ensure genetic variation so restoration can occur if the pest is brought under control, Gibbs says.

Diversity is what’s needed in the long run, he says. Monocultures, where one species thrives and dominates, are more susceptible to threats like pathogens or insects than areas with biological diversity.

When a species of any sort dies off or is crowded out, the effects can be wide ranging.

“It affects the whole ecosystem and that’s very hard to predict because it’s a whole web,” says Peter Debes, a Rochesterarea naturalist who’s organized and led educational programs on invasive species.

Beyond the change the emerald ash borer will bring to New York’s forests and streets, one thing is clear: this won’t be the last invasive species to hit New York.

“The $64-million question is what will be next?” Gibbs says.

It’s been a very hot summer. For a week, the mercury was pegged above 90, making even the hardiest of us scamper for the thermostat to turn on the AC. And now we enter the dog days of August. We keep cold drinks close at hand. Ice cream shops and neighborhood ice cream trucks do a bang-up business. We beat the heat by trying to stay as cool as possible, but that’s not how everyone in the world does it. While we hide from the furious sun, in Thailand and Laos they embrace it, and even consume it, producing some of the spiciest food on earth. There’s a certain logic to eating spicy food in hot weather. Fiery food makes you sweat and drives up your body temperature just a bit, both of which can theoretically blunt the impact of hot and humid days. Always eager for an excuse to eat Thai food, I decided that I should give it a try

and headed out to Asian Moon Cafe in the tropical wilds of Chili.

Asian Moon is not strictly a Thai restaurant: the menu is more or less evenly divided between Thai and Chinese food, with a smattering of Vietnamese thrown in for good measure. That’s not surprising given that the owner of Asian Moon, Ratsamy Homsombath, is Lao. (Ras, as she prefers to be called, emigrated from Laos more than 30 years ago, sponsored by members of the Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Fairport.)

Laotian food is a hybrid cuisine, largely Thai, but with more Chinese influence than its neighbor to the east; and you will often see menus like the one at Asian Moon in Lao restaurants. For those who can’t stand the heat, there are safe Chinese dishes on the menu. For the rest of us, Ras and her cooks can alter the spice to fit almost any taste.

(And if your meal isn’t hot enough, they’ll bring you some chili paste so that you can ramp it up yourself ).

Those looking for hot soup, but who still

want to be able to feel the inside of their mouths, will start with Ras’ “chef’s special soup,” a basin-sized bowl of lovingly made broth enriched with a whisper of fish sauce

and filled with fresh vegetables, tender bits of chicken, and sheets of slippery yet delicious rice noodles ($5.95-$7.95, depending on your protein of choice). A single bowl can easily feed three. If you crave endorphins, start with the tom yum soup ($3.50-$5.50). Agreeably spicy — pinhead-sized dots of chili oil float atop the golden broth — with a nice bit of fish sauce and the sour bite of fresh lime juice and lemongrass, this soup is a model of its kind.

The combination of sour flavors and the bite of chili oil that lingers on the back of your tongue (my wife actually calls this “coughing soup” for the way it tickles her throat) are a good way to start the sweat flowing.

Aspiring fire-eaters and those of a milder disposition will both be able to agree on appetizers. Asian Moon makes a solid version of chicken satay (here called chicken on a stick), the meat well grilled with a bit of curry and a coating of sweet soy sauce ($4.95).

Served with a dish of nuoc cham — a dressing made with rice vinegar, lime juice, fish sauce, and chilis — this will please everyone at the table and make a nice alternative to the kids menu for the small set.

your Scoville levels back up to where they should be. Shredded green papaya has the toothsome consistency of green cabbage but the flavor of daikon (nice and neutral), which makes it a good palette for an intensely spicy dressing. Flecked with bits of red pepper and luxuriating in a dressing that is an almost incandescent red, papaya salad offers a fun contrast in flavors and textures: the veg crunchy and cool, the dressing slick and fiery.

Thai food is known for its curries, and Asian Moon offers some pretty good ones.

Red curry paste augmented with an indecent amount of coconut milk has an almost custardy texture, clinging beautifully to bits of veg and chicken, and turning normal steamed rice into something akin to a savory rice pudding ($8.95-$13.95). Sticking with curry and pad Thai, the staples of Thai restaurants everywhere, means you’ll miss out on Asian Moon’s selection of Thai noodles and stir fries.

Of the latter, both the lemongrass chicken ($8.95-$14.95) and the eggplant stir fried with Thai sauce (eggplant delight, $8.95$14.95) are not to be missed.

The lemongrass sauce is built on a base of oyster sauce (see, there’s the Chinese influence; straight Thai food would rely exclusively on fish sauce for that salty, umami-laden taste), which lends it a nice glossy appearance, rich flavor, and some roundness in addition to the citrus perfume of lemongrass. The eggplant is among the best I’ve eaten in recent memory. Clearly salted to pull out any hint of bitterness, cut on the bias and cooked in a smoking hot wok with tender slices of pork marinated in sweet soy sauce, this could be the best way to eat eggplant: the spongy vegetable is transformed into creamy bites of pure flavor, soaking up the plentiful sauce and giving it back in concentrated but not overwhelming portions. But neither of these dishes will help you along the way to incendiary nirvana.

Pad kee mow, also known as drunken noodles, will put you over the top ($8.95$12.95). Wide rice noodles stir fried with pork, basil leaves, vegetables, sweet soy, and a staggering amount of both crushed bird peppers and garlic chili paste, the dish takes its name from the amount of beer you will drink trying to fight the fire. Smoky, spicy, meaty with the occasional licorice blast of Thai basil to tickle your seared taste buds, if this entrée doesn’t make you sweat you lack sweat glands. Go for the burn. And keep in mind that there’s an ice-cream shop next door to help you recover from your meal.

If the burn from your soup has worn off,

In my experience as one who likes to manipulate and twist language, I’ve come to this conclusion: when a profane word is placed in front of another word it simply means “really” (for example: “what a goddamn mess”). I’ve also discovered that the word “holy” placed in front of a profane word becomes another form of “really.” I’m pointing this all out to you, gentle reader, in order to explain the word I’m using to describe the amazing show I saw last night. Like I said earlier, I like to twist the language, so here goes…

Born in 1933, he began to play the piano and compose at the age of 3. Years later he graduated from the Tchaikovsky Moscow Conservatory. As his career as a composer grew, the Soviet Ministry of Culture offered Andriasov the position of the Head of the “Special Committee on Music and Moral Matters.” Andriasov declined the position, and moved with his family to NYC. His name disappeared from the repertoire of Russian performers and scores and recordings of his compositions vanished. He died in 2000. — BY PALOMA CAPANNA

Robert Randolph and the Family Band with special guests The Campbell Brothers and show opener Gary Clark, Jr. blew my

head off. Clark, from Austin, Texas, where perhaps guitarists of his caliber blend in a little more, played the blues with the intensity of a freight train with a broken heart. Standing relatively still wearing his best Salvation Armani, Clark’s tone was huge as he shifted from gut-busting Texas shuffles to Hendrix-esque space endeavors.

And whatever savagery his guitar conjured, he balanced it with his periodic forays into some sweet, sweet soul complete with falsetto a la Mayfield. (Sounds like an Italian dish, doesn’t it?)

One of those cats was Jimmy Smith, arguably the greatest B-3 player in history.

NEW WAVE | The Romantics

The Romantics are the classic and influential New Wave band from Detroit. The band cashed in on MTV’s prowess in the mid-80’s with its music videos and edgier pop sensibility. The band was heavily influenced by the British pop invasion of the 1960’s (The Kinks, The Who, etc.) as well as 70’s garage rock like Iggy Pop and The Stooges, and The Romantics’ sound even posits a certain punk presence. All this translates into what music historians like to call pop/punk a more powerful brand of finger-snapping, knee-jerking radio rock. These Motor City musicians went 13 years before releasing their most recent album in 2003 and continue to mix it up. Lead singer, guitarist, and founding member Wally Palmar even toured with Ringo Starr in 2010.

The Romantics perform Thursday, August 11, 5-10 p.m. as part of Party in the Park at the Riverside Festival Site, Court & Exchange. $2. rochesterevents.com.

HIP-HOP | Hoodie Allen

Self-described “college music nerd” Steve Markowitz, better known by his emcee moniker Hoodie Allen, is a white, Jewish, underground, unsigned, hipster hip-hop artist from New York, NY. Allen has garnered notable buzz on the internet through his genre-juggling act that features a fearless use of interesting samples (using music from bands as diverse as UK pop artist Marina & the Diamonds to the Pacific Northwest indie institution Death Cab for Cutie). He brings his increasing catalog of catchy summertime anthems to the other side of Water Street on Friday.

The future is bright for this young, bespectacled son of Abraham, and he should showcase a slap-happy sound that will make you shake and smile.

Hoodie Allen performs Friday, August 12, 7 p.m. at the Club at Water Street, 204 N. Water St. $15. 325-5600, waterstreetmusic.com. — BY DAVID YOCKEL JR. Darien Lake. godarienlake.com.

POP/ROCK | Dan Zanes

One of the few bands to come out of the neon plastic of the 1980’s was the Del Fuegos (remember “Nervous and Shakey”?). Dan Zanes was a Del Fuego. That’s all I needed to hear, but here’s more just in case: after the fire went out, a whole new world of music dawned on him — kid’s music.

Not that insipid, patronizing syrup that drives parents to drinking in the afternoon, but clever, often eclectic ditties that truly suit all ages. His latest album, “Little Nut Tree,” features guests the grown-ups will dig like Sharon Jones, Andrew Bird, and Joan Osborne. Truly fun for all ages.

Art Exhibits

faraway expressions, but in other cases, the artists exude strong temperaments. “Pollock” looks every bit as tortured as he was. Here, Accorso also had the tedious task of replicating a Pollock without actually splattering the paint: because the likeness can’t be replicated by the chaos of splattering, Accorso recreated “Number 7” in layers of dabs and lines.

Interesting decisions in perspective enhance the

Life study

“Master/Subjects”

By Joseph Accorso Through August 28 Elizabeth Regional Gallery at ARTISANworks, 565 Blossom road Fri-Sat 11 a.m.-6 p.m., Sun Noon-5 p.m. | $8-$12 | 288-7170, artisanworks.net [ REVIEW ] BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

Artists spend their lives bringing the attention of the public to their wide and varied subject matter, but a new exhibit at ARTISANworks focuses on artists themselves as subjects.

Local painter Joseph Accorso has depicted 50 artists, including many household names and a handful of local artists, and in each portrait Accorso has also recreated one of the subject’s works, providing a further study of the artist and his or her impact on humanity’s visual history. “I have always loved artists’ stories; their motivations, work routines, and naturally their art,” says Accorso. “Being an art teacher for 22 years fostered that passion.”

This exhibit is the culmination of four prolific years of work by Accorso, in which he translated legendary artists and their works, ranging in media from various paint types and sculptural materials, photography, printmaking, and more, into oil or acrylic on 2’x4’ panels. Accorso’s depiction of the chilly glow of marble of Bernini’s “David” is especially telling of his skill as a painter.

“I picked artists who had the raw and irrepressible need to create,” he says. “The drive, the need to create, the work ethic, the persistence is what I identify with in all the artists, whenever they lived.” Each panel is accompanied by a couple of paragraphs from the artist providing further insight.

Accorso chose to paint some artists standing

in front of what is arguably their most iconic work, as with his “Picasso,” which features “Guernica.” In other instances, more obscure works were chosen: “Warhol” is positioned not in front of Marilyn or soup cans, but a grid of silkscreened skulls, and “Da Vinci” is not posing with Mona Lisa or Christ and his dining disciples, but studies of horses and weapons and women, revealing his innovative mind. “I wanted to portray Da Vinci’s almost limitless vision,” says Accorso. “‘Mona Lisa’ and the ‘Last Supper’ are so iconic that they have become virtually wallpaper images in our age.”

The artist also made studied decisions regarding the cropping of the artists’ works, often focusing on revealing details, as in “Stieglitz,” which has the epic-mustachioed photographer positioned in front of one of his photos of partner and muse, Georgia O’Keeffe. The image zeroes in on her expressive hands, fingers seemingly flashing a secret “I love you” gesture I hadn’t noticed before seeing this focused version of the image. In “Dali,” the elegantly bizarre Salvador stands calmly beneath the rearing horse of “The Temptation of Saint Anthony,” the afflicted man seen only as a hand bearing a cross in the lower left corner.

All of the portraits are done in Accorso’s style of painting, but the replicas of the art works closely resemble the style of his subjects, so sometimes the background is jarringly different from the style of the portrait. The most exaggerated example is “Lichtenstein,” where the realistic portrait of the artist pops dark and solid atop the colorful, striped, and dotty background of “Bedroom at Arles.”

The personalities of some of the artists lay behind the stone walls of their blank or

portraits: in “Paley,” our local man of steel stands beneath his soaring “Sentinel,” the sky-high work foreshortened realistically. In “Netsky,” local printmaker, professor, and writer Ron seems to stand within the subdued dream-scene tall trees of his “Pine Forest IV” cardiograph.

And “DeKooning,” like most of the artists, is facing us, but painting a thick yellow line on an invisible canvas between himself and the viewer.

His painting also covers the field behind him on the panel, so he’s becoming effectively enveloped by it, swaddled in his creation.

Except for the few local exceptions (Netsky, Paley, watercolorist Ralph Avery, Ramone Santiago, a self-portrait by Accorso, and a portrait of his father among them), the body of work mostly celebrates iconic household names. Interestingly, the show more of less reflects the long-standing focus of the art world on white European and American males. Some exceptions include female and minority artists who have achieved immortality in art history books, such as Mary Cassatt, Georgia O’Keeffe, Romare Bearden, and Jacob Lawrence. Five women artists are represented (10 percent of the whole), three non-white artists (6 percent), and the rest are white American or European male artists. The subject matter of the artists Accorso chose varied widely, from religious iconography to abstracts, but where it came to depictions of humans, six works depict non-whites (12 percent), and 13 works are of women (26 percent), with some crossover, such as the Native American woman represented in Accorso’s Charles M. Russell tribute.

In each of the works, Accorso provides his viewers not only with the likenesses of these greats, but also windows into their lives, work, and concerns. The troubled “Caravaggio” portrait includes a detail of “David with the Head of Goliath,” and Accorso has positioned the artist’s face close to the chiaroscuro grotesque severed head to emphasize that Caravaggio used himself as a model for the doomed giant. The accompanying anecdote tells us that the artist was an accused murderer on the lam to escape his death sentence, and sent this painting to the pope as a pardon plea. This sort of humanizing of a dead-and-gone artist is a big, important mark of a great lover and teacher of art history — the ability to make a potentially dry subject interesting by lending us a peek into the intrigue of so many otherwise often-obscure lives.

DANCE | ASIAN CULTURAL FEST AT SONNENBERG

Did you know that our city is home to both a Japanese Association and a Chinese Dance Company? I was unaware, until a recent press bit from Sonnenberg crossed my desk.

On Saturday, August 13, 1-3 p.m., Sonnenberg Gardens & Mansion State Historic Park (151 Charlotte St. in Canandaigua) will present an Asian Culture Festival in collaboration with the two aforementioned organizations.

This event is included with regular admission to Sonnenberg ($5 for students, $9 for seniors, $10 general and free to kids age 12 and under), and proceeds will be used to replace the roof of the Tea House and help restore Japanese garden structures and landscaping to the original 1906 design.

The Chinese Dance Company of Rochester will perform 2-2:45 p.m., with 25 to 30 dancers featuring classical and contemporary dance styles, ethnic folk dances, children’s dances, and traditional Chinese music. For more information call 394-4922, or visit sonnenberg.org. — BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

RECREATION | PERSEID METEOR SHOWER

As adults, we know that “shooting stars” aren’t actually celestial bodies tumbling earthward (thankfully), but bits of space detritus burning up as it brushes our little bubble of life. But happening to spy one smack the invisible skydome is nevertheless an enchanting experience. Seeing hundreds of them each August is reason enough to brave biting bugs as you lay in a field with buddies.

The annual Perseid Meteor Shower (associated with the comet Swift-Tuttle and named for the constellation from which the space bits appear to originate) is visible to the naked eye late July through mid-August, with the peak taking place August 9-14, during which it’s possible to see upwards of 60 streaks per hour. On Friday, August 12, join Jackson Thomas, Steve Gooding, and Diane Taggart for the free Perseid Meteor Shower over the Swamp event at Thousand Acre Swamp Sanctuary (1581 Jackson Road, Penfield). Meet at 8 p.m. and bring a flashlight and lawn chair, dress for cool evenings, and consider bug spray, since the wet and humid weather has been perfect for pest proliferation. For more information, call Marie Heerkens at 425-9561 or Sue Pixley at 586-6677.

If you can’t make the interpreted event, simply get away from light pollution, look skyward, let your eyes wander, and you’ll see them. Wikipedia assures me that the rate of meteors is greatest in the pre-dawn hours, since the side of the Earth nearest to turning into the sun scoops up more meteors as the Earth moves through space. — BY REBECCA RAFFERTY 17: “Abandonment Issues,” photography by Kevin Schoonover.

Theater his feelings for her at the end: “I’ve grown accustomed to her face.”

Deborah Hay’s Eliza is smart, sharp, and capable of deep feeling, though Hay’s abrupt shifts in vocal tone are jarring. Neil Barclay is gloriously funny as Eliza’s father, a charter member of the “undeserving poor.” Barclay is a large man whose size often results in his being underused; it’s good to see him in a part worthy of his talent.

Shaw’s mixed bag 2011 Shaw Festival Through October 30 Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, Canada 800-511-SHAW, shawfest.com [ REVIEW ] By Michael Lasser

After sitting through two disappointing seasons at The Shaw Festival in 2009 and 2010, I approached this season with some trepidation.

Would the dumbing down of plays and the pandering to audiences that have begun to characterize Shaw under artistic director Jackie Maxwell continue, or would the Festival reassert itself as one of the finest theater festivals in the English-speaking world — admired for the integrity of its work, the clarity of its direction, the quality of its acting, and its gift for recreating the various time periods that came and went during George Bernard Shaw’s 96 years?

The results were mixed, but overall the productions were better than they’ve been recently. I saw six plays. The best without question was Tennessee Williams’ “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,” the worst was J.M. Barrie’s “The Admirable Crichton,” and the other four were Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe’s greatest musical, “My Fair Lady”; Lennox Robinson’s genial trifle, “Drama at Inish”; Ferenc Molnar’s one-act farce “The President”; and Shaw’s witty comedy, “Candida.”

22 City august 10-16, 2011

The Shaw’s 50th anniversary season this year coincides with the celebration of Williams’ birth in 1911; the resulting production of “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” is superb. Set in Brick and Maggie’s spacious bedroom in Big Daddy’s Mississippi plantation house, it tells the story of Brick, who has rejected his sexually vital wife Maggie and become an alcoholic. He wallows in guilt and selfloathing over the death of his best friend, Scooter, and his fear that he may be homosexual.

Meanwhile Big Daddy, the family patriarch, is dying of cancer as Brick’s brother and sisterin-law connive to control the estate after Big Daddy’s death. The nights are hot and moist, alcohol flows, and repressed secrets erupt; this is Williams in full Southern Gothic mode.

But it is also a powerful play with two great roles: Maggie and Big Daddy are survivors who endure what must be endured. Both confront Brick to bring him back from his urge to destroy himself, Maggie through seduction, Big Daddy through browbeating and bullying. Moya O’Connell gives an elusive, shifting, but erotically charged performance as Maggie. Conniving in every conceivable way to win back her husband, she is motivated by love and sexual need.

Big Daddy, played ferociously by Jim Mezon, confronts Brick head-on. Liberated by the mistaken belief that he is well, he feels free to assail the lies he finds in his own family, all except Brick. He hates nothing more than what he calls “mendacity.” When Mezon is on stage,

his intensity creates the kind of silence that feels as if an audience has stopped breathing to be sure it doesn’t miss a word.

Eda Holmes’ direction opens the play’s emotional depths. Rather than imposing an external vision on the production, she lets Williams’ rich language illuminate the fullness of his characters and their often-blighted lives.

Anyone tackling Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe’s “My Fair Lady” has to satisfy the show’s need for star power — not always present in an ensemble company like Shaw. But Benedict Campbell as Henry Higgins, the more-or-less misogynistic linguist who transforms a flower girl into a lady, rises to the occasion. His Higgins is charming, witty, and impervious to his own flaws. Campbell sings in a full, pleasing baritone rather than the patter that has defined Higgins since Rex Harrison first created the role in 1956.

Director Molly Smith has wisely returned to Shaw’s “Pygmalion,” the musical’s source, to affirm that Higgins is not the old man Harrison appeared to be in the 1963 movie. Shaw’s Higgins is a vigorous man in his mid-40’s who rejects women by choice; he prefers life without them. But Smith errs by making Higgins anxious about Eliza’s success at the ball; he is — and must be — supremely confident. She also gives us a Higgins who begins to feel affection for Eliza through the play, thereby weakening the great dramatic shift when Higgins recognizes

Lennox Robinson is one of the lessremembered members of the Irish Renaissance that included Lady Gregory, Sean O’Casey, John Millington Synge, and William Butler Yeats. “Drama at Inish” is the first of his plays done by the Shaw Festival. It’s an engaging comedy that satirizes the theater and offers an affectionate tribute to it at the same time.

The small Irish resort town of Inish stages mindless comedies summer after summer.

Nobody goes because they’re so dreadful, but the population is contented and happy nevertheless. Determined to improve the lives of the people and increase tourism, the town hires a troupe to perform the likes of Ibsen and Chekhov. Soon the town erupts in arguments, domestic violence, even the threat of murder. All those Modernist plays, with their revelations of the heart’s darkest truths, have made everybody miserable even though the acting company consists of second-rate hams whose melodramatic gestures on and off the stage are as phony as they are funny.

Eventually, the town fires the actors, brings in a circus, and everybody’s problem disappears. The cast and Jackie Maxwell’s direction for this lighthearted frivolity are a pleasure, but Mary Haney as the spinster sister of the owner of the town’s hotel, is first among equals. She remains one of the Shaw’s deftest comedians. Late in the play, Andrew Bunker as Michael, the bootblack and gofer, renders several recitations, alternately touching and forceful, to remind us amidst the mockery that there’s also something here worth respecting.

The lunchtime play from 2009, Ferenc Molnar’s “The President,” was so successful that it’s back this summer. A four-door farce that transforms a boorish Communist taxi driver into an eligible bachelor with perfect Capitalist credentials in one frenzied hour, this delectable non-stop exercise in political nonsense barely stops to make fun of corporate shenanigans before somebody else dashes in (or out) another one of the four doors.

Overseeing it all is the president of an American company, played with brio by Lorne Kennedy. I suggest getting a hearing loop: the sound in the Royal George Theatre isn’t crisp and Kennedy executes his tour de force at breakneck speed.

Now we turn to Shaw’s “Candida” and Barrie’s “The Admirable Crichton,” important plays by two of the most important playwrights of their time — and Shaw gets both productions wrong. Claire Jullien is an intelligent, graceful Candida, who ultimately must choose between the two men in her life: her husband, James Morell, a Socialist clergyman, and Eugene Marchbanks, a young poet with overheated emotions. But Nigel Shawn Williams as Morell and especially Wade Bogert-O’Brien as Marchbanks so misplay the characters that Candida is deprived of any real choice, and the audience of anything worth thinking about.

When director Tadeusz Bradecki indulges Bogert-O’Brien’s slapstick shenanigans — the curled-up cowering in corners, the falling to the floor — he makes it impossible to believe that Candida would have anything to do with this ninny. It’s GBS by way of Red Skelton. I love Skelton, but not in “Candida.” Meanwhile, Williams as Morell is merely stolid without the geniality and vitality the clergyman is supposed to possess. As always, Norman Browning, the unrepentant old capitalist who is Candida’s father, provides welcome humor.

Barrie’s “Crichton” plays with the British class system in 1920. It does so by marooning the Earl of Loam, who believes that class distinctions are false, with his family, a servant or two, and his butler Crichton, by far the ablest person among them. Soon, Crichton is organizing a society and emerging as something very much like its emperor. Only when the party is rescued does he resume his “natural” place in English society. Barrie’s play is realistic in style but satiric in viewpoint.

It sounds as if it’s going to be entertaining in a straightforward way, a revival of a good play from almost a century ago. So it might have been with the always sure David Schurmann as the not-very-bright Loam and Steven Sutcliffe as the amiably shrewd Crichton. But director Morris Panych — himself a playwright — has treated Barrie’s work with contempt. He introduces a series of figures, dressed in tuxedos and wearing animal heads (wolf, rabbit, crane, and so on) to sing and dance the songs and dances of the late 1920’s (none of which were in style when the show was first performed) as comments on the action. Sometimes they also tell us what we’re about to see, perhaps on the assumption that we’re not smart enough to figure it out for ourselves. Finally, if you want a standing ovation, throw in a Charleston number at the end, no matter how gratuitous. It’s a case of pandering at its cheapest, and the Shaw Festival should know better.

SPECIAL EVENT | TESLA APPRECIATION SHOW

My eventual interest in Croatian-born, Serbian inventor Nikola Tesla began not with a love of physics or engineering, but with my undying adoration of David Bowie, who portrayed the eccentric in the Nolan brothers’ 2006 magician-revenge thriller, “The Prestige.” The Tesla-Edison side-story intrigue in that flick was also where I learned how cut-throat the business of scientific patents has always been, and a newborn fascination with the brilliant but lesser business man led me to seek out and tear through a biography on Tesla.

During his peak years, Tesla’s name was known, but since perishing in poverty and fading into history, too few contemporary people are aware of his work as an important contributor to commercial electricity’s origins, and his revolutionary developments in the field of electromagnetism.

Not to mention that whole being-the-father-of-radio-technology thing. You can join others in celebrating Tesla’s life at the Nikola Tesla Appreciation Show and Zine Release Party, which will be held Saturday, August 13, 6-10:30 p.m. at the Flying Squirrel Community Space (285 Clarissa St.).

The event will include snacks, a possible video screening, performance art by Bloody Noes, and tentative musical acts include The Whiskers, The Goons, Bad Kids, Pegacide, Ian Downey is Famous, and Bluesberries. While you’re there, pick up a copy of the second edition of “The Unlikely—yet True—Love of Nikola Tesla and Captain Ahab!” Totally true.

Get in for the $2 suggested donation (no one turned away for lack of funds), and all money will benefit the Squirrel.

Our ancestors, our brothers, ourselves [ REVIEW ] BY GEORGE GRELLA

“Rise of the Planet of the Apes” (PG-13), directed by Rupert Wyatt Now playing

Practically from its beginnings, science-fiction film concentrates much of its intellectual focus on the complicated, often hostile relationships between science and business, science and politics, even science and mankind. While “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” provides one of those origin stories, a prequel that in part explains the six previous “Ape” flicks, it also depends for much of its plot and theme on the

Geneseo Theatres 243-2691 Geneseo Square Mall THE CHANGE-UP: 1, 3:05, 5:10, continues on page 28

conflict between the pursuit of knowledge and the pursuit of profit.

James Franco plays Will Rodman, a scientist who works for a pharmaceutical company conducting research on a cure for Alzheimer’s disease, which afflicts his father (John Lithgow). He and his colleagues create a drug that markedly improves brain function in their test animal, a chimpanzee, but just as he is presenting his findings to the company’s board of directors, the animal flies into a violent rage, apparently a side effect of the drug, which effectively ends his experiments. The company CEO (David Oyelowo) insists on ending the program and putting down all the test animals, but Rodman saves the crazed chimp’s baby and takes it home with him, not only to save its life but also in the hope that the pet will alleviate his father’s distress.

The chimp, which his father names Caesar, develops physically and mentally at an extraordinary rate, the result of inheriting the drug in his mother’s blood; inspired by the animal’s amazing

improvement in cognitive function, Rodman begins stealing a new version of the drug to give to his father. Paralleling the remarkable progress of Caesar’s cognitive abilities, his father’s condition improves almost immediately, which encourages Rodman’s boss, who foresees enormous profits for the company, to order a resumption of the experiments at a foolhardy pace.

Of course, as anyone familiar with the traditions of the genre and with fictional scientists from Faust to Frankenstein knows, something must go terribly wrong. Rodman learns that though the chimps benefit from the drug, humans suffer a fatal transformation in the brain; Caesar, on the other hand, sent to a kind of primate prison, continues his rapid development and rises to the leadership of all the apes. He steals the drug, administers it to his fellow prisoners, and organizes a jailbreak and a violent assault on the laboratory.

The picture departs from its careful chronicling of Caesar’s improvement and his life in the animal shelter, descending into a series of spectacular and quite unbelievable skirmishes between humans and their cousins. Despite the imbalance in weaponry, the primates appear to win the battles and somehow, even outnumber the cops — how could that many chimps, monkeys, gorillas, and orangutans populate the zoos and laboratories of San Francisco?

The script contains a number of references to the 1968 movie that began the series, with

Looking over the fence [ REVIEW ] BY DAYNA PAPALEO

“The Change-Up” (R), directed by David Dobkin Now playing

some subtle foreshadowing of the original and an entirely contradictory explanation of the reasons for the eventual triumph of the apes. Ironically, this time around an entirely negative character even delivers Charlton Heston’s most famous line from the original flick, which nicely summarizes the scriptwriters’ intent to allude to the first movie but also separate the prequel from its parents.

“Rise of the Planet of the Apes” also demonstrates the advances in film technology since 1968, the wonders of computer-generated images and the process known as performance capture.

Andy Serkis, who also played the hideous Gollum in “The Lord of the Rings,” impersonates Caesar; like Ron Perlman, he’s spent much of his career hidden beneath hair, covered in special-effects makeup, or inside some outlandish costume. While James Franco seems mostly bland and saccharine throughout, John Lithgow dominates his scenes, providing an absolutely convincing portrayal of an intelligent, talented man struck down by a terrible disease, tragically aware that he is losing his intelligence, his personality, his identity.

Unlike its predecessors — also, in the Einsteinian world of relativity that operates for prequels and remakes, its progeny — “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” lacks irony and moral depth, except for the sequences inside the primate shelter. It mostly settles for the traditional distrust of intelligence in its depiction of scientists, and perhaps the not entirely original sermonizing about being kind to animals.

Autumn can’t get here fast enough. By late September, the weather will have become blissfully comfortable, the scenery far lovelier, and the movies way less shitty. Please forgive the profanity; that’s not meant as a commentary on quality. (Though, if we’re being honest, it could be.) From Jason Bateman’s coke-fueled dash in “Horrible Bosses” to Justin Timberlake’s open-door policy in “Friends With Benefits,” nearly every film released this summer has included at least one gag about Hollywood’s favorite bodily function. Now, I know defecation is a part of life, and inside each of us lurks an 8-year-old boy who thinks explosive diarrhea is the apex of comedy. But never again do I need to see a baby projectile-poop directly into a man’s mouth, which happens at the very beginning of “The Change-Up,” some crudely crafted idiocy that... um... well, I sort of enjoyed.

On the receiving end of that gooey burst is the now-ubiquitous

When he’s not wiping butt at home, he’s kissing ass at work, where the ambitious 30something hopes to soon make partner. Dave gets welcome respites from his demanding existence via occasional outings with longtime pal Mitch (Ryan Reynolds), a sleazy but charming bachelor who aspires to actordom but mostly just gets high, mooches food, and beds assorted ladies.

Over beers one evening, Dave begins lamenting his buttoned-down lifestyle; “I missed all the sex and the drugs and the bad choices,” he cries to Mitch, who responds with some halfhearted envy of his own. What neither soul anticipates, however, is that after a fateful pee in a fountain, each will wake up inhabiting the body of the other.

Yup, it’s another version of “Freaky Friday,” this time with grown-ups. (Or: “Face/Off,” but nowhere near as funny.)

Their bluffs having been cosmically called, Dave and Mitch are forced to figure out lives they only thought they knew. For Dave, who now looks like Reynolds, this means learning how to relax (both on and off the toilet, naturally), hilariously cringing his way through Mitch’s big break in a “lorno,” and maybe even getting the opportunity to make a move on his sexy legal assistant (Olivia Wilde as male-fantasy archetype). It also means coaching the crude but Bateman-looking Mitch through a complex business deal as well as an equally thorny family dynamic, one with kids who require daddying and a lonely, tireless wife (the underrated Leslie Mann plays Jamie) whose husband’s emotional absence seems to have occurred long before any public urination.

The three leads, alone and in their various combinations, are what make “The Change-Up” worth your money.

(Note: this assumes matinee rates only.)

Bateman and Reynolds have their respective uptight and snarky personas down pat, so it’s quite entertaining to watch them switch it up. It’s especially true of Bateman, who finally gets to embrace his smutty, winking id with a torrent of hard-R language, usually unleashed at a wincingly inappropriate time. Reynolds actually does a pretty good job of channeling Bateman; he shines in his relatively dramatic scenes with Mann, mostly reacting as Jamie pours her unhappy guts out to the insensitive womanizer that now houses her husband.

Essentially playing the same part she did in “Knocked Up,” Mann deftly veers between ballbusting and heartbreaking; she’s quite fearless and consistently elevates the clichéd lot of women in the bromantic comedy genre.

Let me reiterate, however, that “The Change-Up” is in no danger of winning any awards, though the teaming of director David Dobkin (“Wedding Crashers”) with scribes Jon Lucas and Scott Moore (“The Hangover”) is a frat-boy dream.

These three men arguably helped to write the book on the 21st century’s cinematic resurgence of bare breasts and unchecked swearing, but their obvious desire to go further than they have before yields more in the way of juvenile shock tactics rather than the inherent truths that typically allow us to identify with fictional characters.

Or, for that matter, let us get lost in the story; you may find yourself fixating on what should be basic chronology, or perhaps marveling at Atlanta’s crack brigade of fountain movers. Then again, if you’re looking for realism, you probably wouldn’t be watching a body-swapping, shiteating comedy anyway.

POLTERGEIST

Friday, Aug., 12, 8 p.m., and Sunday, Aug., 14, 4 p.m.

The haunted house genre moves to the suburbs, as a family discovers that the mysterious occurrences in their new tract home — at first amusing bits of mischievous telekinesis, later more terrifying acts of deadly violence — may have something to do with the Native American burial ground underneath their subdivision. (Tobe Hooper, US 1982, 114 min.)

FRIDAY THE 13TH Movies for movie lovers, 6 nights a week.

Back to Back to the ’80s

Saturday, Aug. 13, 8 p.m., and Sunday, Aug. 14, 7 p.m.

A group of counselors is relentlessly disposed of by a murderous maniac at Camp Crystal Lake ... and that’s about all you need to know. Teens had been murdered on screen before, but not with the relentless efficiency of Friday The 13th, the film that combined Halloween, Giallo, and a billion grade-Z exploitation flicks to create the slasher film as we know it. (Sean Cunningham, US 1980, 95 min.)

Village Living in Fairport

62 West Avenue

West Avenue is one of the prettiest streets in the village of Fairport. It showcases many of the village’s most impressive 19th and early 20th century residences, many with delightful porches. Within an easy walk are shops, restaurants, a library, village parks, and schools. The village hosts many community events, such as the popular Canal Days in June, summer concerts at the gazebo, a weekly farmer’s market and holiday parades. For walkers, bicyclers and boaters, the village offers easy access to the Erie Canal and its path.

The clapboard house at 62 West Avenue was built in 1845 as a one-and-a-half story Greek Revival residence. In 1875, the roof was raised, adding a full second story and attic space. The house still retains its original Greek Revival elements in the handsome entrance with its bold pilaster and entablature surround, transom and sidelights, woodpanel door, and a wide threshold. The steeply-pitched roof, the distinctive shingles in the gable end, and the side porch reflect the changes in the late 19th century and are common elements of the Queen Anne style.

In the front hall a long staircase with a polished wood banister and an elegant curved end rises up to the second floor. The large front living room features the original Greek door and window shouldered architrave trim, molded panels beneath the windows, and a deep

baseboard. A wide opening leads into the dining room. A small study area off the dining room contains a closet that has the original pine flooring; the rest of the interior has fine oak flooring. The back portion of the house has been opened up into a kitchen and family room area. The updated kitchen features cherry cabinets and Corian counters. A former butler’s pantry now includes the laundry facilities. The spacious family room features a large brick hearth and gas-fired stove. Also here is a full bath and access to a screened porch—perfect for summertime meals. The newly-finished mud room contains a tile floor, closet, and the back door, which exits onto the driveway and to the new two-car garage.

A second set of stairs behind the kitchen area leads to the second floor, which has two pleasant bedrooms with roomy closets and a large master bedroom with a walk-in closet. The second full bath is also located here. The unfinished attic contains more storage areas and could become a serviceable, finished space.

This well-maintained house contains 2,641 square feet. The exterior is beautifully landscaped with perennial borders and mature shrubs. With its great village location, this charming house is ideal for raising a family.

It is being offered at $229,900. For more information, contact Bob Ruhland, Keller Williams Realty, at 303-6607.
