MOVIE

Benedict Cumberbatch in Doctor Strange

Marvel at this Doctor Strange is a peerlessly spectacular visual trip

W

hen was the last time you saw a movie in IMAX 3-D? For the newest offering from the Marvel Comics Universe, you might just want to plan a jaunt to one of those humongous screens (and ask your favorite local investor why there isn’t an IMAX theater yet at Kingston’s Tech City). There’s no doubt about it: Kevin Feige and Scott Derrickson’s Doctor Strange is the most visually stunning, mind-bending cinematic product to hit the megaplexes since Avatar in 2009. And even blown up to gargantuan proportions, star Benedict Cumberbatch remains easy on the eyes, as any selfstyled “Cumberbitch� will gladly tell you.

His acting is, unsurprisingly, splendid here as well.

Most Marvel superheroes have some sort of scientific/technological explanation, however vague, for the source of their powers. Doctor Strange simply learns to wield magic, after an auto wreck deprives the elite neurosurgeon of the use of his hands. Tipped off by a former paraplegic (Benjamin Bratt) who has learned to walk normally with a little help from a mysterious esoteric order, the cynical-butnow-desperate Stephen Strange heads for Kathmandu in search of a cure.

While Doctor Strange lacks the tonguein-cheek tone of Guardians of the Galaxy or the snarky bro-banter that prevails amongst The Avengers, the movie does not lack for humor – most of it at the Doctor’s expense. The character is a brilliant, arrogant materialist in the mold of Sherlock Holmes or Tony Stark/Iron Man, so there is much fun to be had in the process of his humbling at the hands of

the chief mystic, the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton), who swats him into his first outof-body experience.

A fair bit of “whitewashing� controversy arose when Derrickson cast Swinton in this role, who is an elderly Asian male in the original comic-book version. True, there are a wealth of elderly Asian actors out there who could have used the gig.

But in fairness, the director did bend over backwards to eliminate some of the ethnic stereotypes inherent in the comic series, which dates back to 1963. The character of Wong (Benedict Wong), a self-effacing manservant in the comics, here becomes the librarian in charge of a storehouse of priceless spellbooks and a powerful sorcerer in his own right. Disillusioned mystic arts master Karl Mordo, originally white, is played by Chiwetel Ejiofor and transformed into a more complex character to make better use of that actor’s formidable thespian skills.

With her shaved head and unearthly pallor, Tilda Swinton totally rocks the part of the Sorcerer Supreme with a whole lot of deep dark secrets. Once you’ve seen her, it’s tough to imagine anyone else who so embodies the concept of an ageless, genderless, contextless (but not entirely mirthless) channeler of arcane cosmic forces. She plays the part with eerie economy of movement and expression, but still seems to be having the time of her life: the perfect foil for a flawed hero

the Cloak of Levitation: a magical gizmo with a mind of its own that develops an overly tenacious attachment to the good Doctor.

Don’t look to Doctor Strange for deeply nuanced character development, though.

Mostly this is an eye-candy-laden thrill ride through a plethora of dimensions, taking the Escheresque planar foldings of Inception to levels heretofore unprecedented onscreen. Gravity and direction become so meaningless in some extended action sequences that people with severe vertigo or MÊnière’s disease may find this movie hard to sit through.

For the rest of us, though, it’s gorgeously, gloriously trippy to watch. If you can’t see it in IMAX, at least spring for the few extra bucks for 3-D. You won’t regret it. – Frances Marion Platt

whose cushy lifestyle and flamboyant aura of professional superiority have crumbled to ruins. Strange needs to be beaten down before he can be reconstructed to wield powers beyond anything he previously imagined, and the Ancient One is just the one for the job.

The rest of the cast is equally strong, notably Rachel McAdams as Dr. Christine Palmer, Strange’s baffled surgical colleague and ex-girlfriend, and Mads Mikkelson as Kaecilius, an adept who has broken away from the order with a stolen magical recipe to turn our world over to Dormammu, a pandimensional megavillain from the Multiverse.

NATURE

DEVIN PICKERING

A river runs through us Oceanic explorer Jon Bowermaster’s new documentary series The Hudson: A River at Risk

T

hirty years ago, two lifechanging things happened to Jon Bowermaster. One of them was moving to Stone Ridge. The other one was becoming friends with polar explorer Will Steger as a result of his work as a freelance journalist in New York City.

Steger hooked him up with the National Geographic Society, needing someone to crank the camera recording his planned 3,41-mile dogsled trek across Antarctica.

That led to a ten-year relationship with NatGeo in which Bowermaster traveled all over the globe, mainly by kayak, documenting the health of our water planet. It was called the Oceans 8 Project.

Bowermaster quickly came to the conclusion that our Earth really only has one ocean, and that it connects us all.

Seeing the threats to our water resources up close turned him into a passionate environmental activist.

Eleven books and more than a dozen documentary films later, Bowermaster has turned his lens much closer to home.

“I’ve spent years making films about the relationship between man and water around the world, but I always wanted to do something about the Hudson River,” he says. “Not traveling as much as I used to, internationally, allows me to focus on things going on in my own back yard.”

That’s not to say that the adventurous photojournalist is sitting at home very much; he has spent much of the past year touring the country with actor Mark Ruffalo, screening his anti-fracking documentary Dear President Obama – the sequel to Dear Governor Cuomo – and leading panel discussions. Bowermaster has also been busy collecting footage in the Hudson Valley and cobbling together a series of magazine-format short documentary pieces collectively titled The Hudson: A River at Risk, which are viewable immediately upon release on his

Jon Bowermaster

website, http://oceans8films.com. “The short videos work really well. We’re not asking viewers to commit 90 minutes or two hours,” he said.

The series started with a story about the “bomb trains” of non-reinforced tanker cars that are carrying highly volatile crude oil fracked from the Bakken shale beds in North Dakota to New York State.

Grim footage of derailments, crashes and explosions of similar fuel-laden rail cars that have occurred in various states and Canadian provinces in the past few years is paired with interviews with environmental leaders in the Hudson Valley, who warn that it’s only a matter of time before disaster strikes our region.

The hazards of shipping Bakken crude via barge down the river are also addressed in this segment.

The series continues with a look at the dangers posed by the Indian Point nuclear plant, with its leaky cooling systems, decades’ worth of stockpiled, radioactive spent fuel rods and lax security on the river side. Then comes a look at the billion-dollar effort to replace the

FRANCESCO CORDARO

Tappan Zee Bridge, the single largest construction project in America. “When we were shooting, we encountered 100 times more security at the Tappan Zee construction site than at Indian Point from the water,” Bowermaster notes.

The next three mini-docs cover the toxic legacy of PCBs in Hudson River sediments, the plan by the Public Service Commission to build high-voltage electrical transmission lines from western New York to Manhattan via the Hudson Valley, and the latest, covering the Pilgrim Pipeline and the AIM Pipeline.

Of these, “The most eye-opening experience was reporting on the PCB situation as it stands today,” says Bowermaster. After the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ruled in 2009 that General Electric was responsible for remediating the mess that it had left behind in the Hudson, “GE’s task was to clean up the country’s largest Superfund site. They spent two billion dollars, pulled out early, and left behind the country’s largest Superfund site: 150 acres of badly polluted river bottom.”

There’s plenty of blame to go around for the unfinished project, according to the filmmaker. “The errant group there is the EPA. Their estimate of the size of the problem was low.” After the dredging project got underway and the federal agency adjusted its assessment, the political will to hold the polluter’s feet to the fire evaporated. “At that point, guess who disappeared?” Bowermaster asks.

He answers his own question. “Cuomo.

He was more interested in getting GE to move its headquarters from Connecticut to Westchester County. Eventually they announced their move to Boston in the middle of his State-of-the-State address.”

All this sounds like depressing news, but Bowermaster makes a point of ending each filmed segment with a call to action, posting onscreen the contact information for government officials whom the concerned public can call or write to urge remedial action. “I hate documentaries that bum you out,” he says.

The newest segment about to be released deals with the US Coast Guard’s proposal to authorize anchorage sites for barges all along the Hudson between Kingston and Yonkers, “sitting there filled with oil, waiting for energy prices to go up.” The next three after that will be more upbeat, he promises, spotlighting local environmental heroes, Hudson Valley music and culture and the resurgence of cleaner, greener, innovative businesses along the river’s shores.

Right now is a crucial time for citizen activism, Bowermaster contends. There are pressures to turn our valley into an “energy corridor” ever since the export of US-produced oil was legalized by Congress two years ago. “What’s changed is the power of communities,” he says. “One thing that New York State communities learned from the fracking fight is that they can make a difference…. I think Pilgrim Pipeline and the anchorages are going

NIGHT SKY

The most super SuperMoon

O

f all the things happening in the universe this year, the November 14 SuperMoon will probably get the most media attention. This extraordinarily close lunar approach is the real deal.

“SuperMoon” was never a term uttered by astrophysicists. But the public loves this concept, and, after all, it’s a rare celestial event that physically affects us. If you live near the Hudson, or anywhere that tides go up and down, you’ll see them do that this Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, November 13 to 15. It’s a tangible connection between our world and the cosmos. The Moon hasn’t been this close since January 26, 1948.

The media will nonetheless exaggerate. They’ll probably tell everyone to look up and see an enormous Moon. Actually, this largest Moon is only eight percent bigger than average. That’s not a noticeable size difference. As readers probably know by now, the most dramatic effect happens when the Full Moon rises, at dusk. Seen just over the skyline a few minutes after sunset, when earthly objects are near it, the Moon looks much bigger. This wellknown “Moon illusion” boosts its perceived size far more than this close approach.

Still, at 6 a.m. EST the Moon will be only 221,524 miles away: truly impressive. The previous most-noteworthy lunar perigee happened on March 19, 2011, when it was just 41 miles (66 kilometers) farther. Before that, we had the super-perigee of March 8, 1993, which was bested by this month’s approach by a mere 12 miles (19 kilometers).

All four of these super-close encounters happened within a few hours of the Full Moon. This is no coincidence. The only way the Moon can approach so closely is by ramping up the overall gravitational influence by aligning with the Sun, which happens exclusively at a new or full phase. Those writers who want to make it seem as if the Full Moon/close Moon confluence is an amazing coincidence ignore the fact that such nearby lunar visits simply never happen during the half, crescent or gibbous times of the month.

Notice, too, that all those previous super-duper Moons happened within a few months of Earth’s perihelion – our closest approach to the Sun – which happens each year in early January. That’s no coincidence either. Having the Sun nearer to us, and therefore

more gravitationally influential, helps the Moon’s orbit change shape and come a bit closer.

The Moon’s distance is usually expressed from Earth’s center to the Moon’s midpoint, because we use the centers of celestial bodies to calculate motion. But it makes more sense to talk about the separation that we’re actually observing. So take note: Late this Sunday night, in the wee hours of November 14, the Moon’s surface hovers just 216,481 miles from our eyeballs. A 100x telescopic magnification will then make craters appear exactly one Moon-width away. That’s real close. It won’t be this near again until November 25, 2034.

It’s a two-night affair. Perigee occurs during the early morning of the 14th, with Full Moon three hours later. So the Moon will actually be largest during Sunday night, the 13th. Count on this being overlooked in the news stories.

But hey, no need to be OCD and try to factor in minutes and seconds. Sunday night, November 13/14, all night long, the biggest Moon since Harry Truman was in the White House is right there, out the window.

hose of us who must do a lot of research to earn our livings are fond of observing that, as a source of data, the Internet is “a mile wide and an inch deep.” One can use it to educate oneself, certainly, but also to reinforce one’s prejudices. This past presidential campaign has been particularly instructive in that regard, with commenters all over the political spectrum proudly claiming that their often-egregiously-false beliefs about a candidate or issue are based on having “done my research.” Very laudable, but from what sources?

By the time this newspaper hits the stands, we will all have a clearer idea about whether various levels of American government will fall into the anti-science or pro-science camp over the next couple of years on such polarizing subjects as climate change, vaccinations, genetic engineering, “chemtrails” and so on.

What would Jerome Lawrence and Robert Edwin Lee have thought if they had lived to see this day? When they wrote the play Inherit the Wind in 1955, as an allegorical protest against McCarthyism, they could make the assumption that most educated Americans would see the Scopes “monkey trial” of 1925 as emblematic of a kind of willful ignorance that had thankfully been left behind. But here we are, more than half a century later, and there are still school districts and state legislatures

ant to do something meaningful and thought-provoking for Veterans’ Day? Check out actor/playwright Douglas Taurel’s oneman show The American Soldier, running the weekend for three performances at Arts at the Chocolate Factory in Red Hook.

Based on actual soldier and family-member letters written from the American Revolution all the way through current-day Afghanistan, The American Soldier pays tribute to veterans and their families while examining the internal struggles that soldiers face when returning home from combat. It exposes their scars and spirits with both darkness and humor. The show has been nominated for an Amnesty International Award, given four stars at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and selected by the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC to perform on January 22, 2017: two days after Inauguration Day. The play is directed by Padraic Lillis and presented locally by Frank Marquette of Theatre on the Road and Richard Rizzo of Rhinebeck Readers’ Theatre. Performances of The American Soldier begin at 8 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, November 11 and 12 and at 3 p.m. on Sunday, November 13. Tickets cost $20 each, with a portion of the proceeds going to veterans’ community clinics in Dutchess and Ulster Counties.

Inherit the Wind is a classic stagework for many reasons, not least that its subject matter remains dishearteningly relevant.

Anytime is a good time for a revival, and election years more appropriate than most. The Rhinebeck Theatre Society will present this timeless courtroom drama at the Center for Performing Arts in Rhinebeck for two weekends beginning this Friday, under the direction of Andy Weintraub. The cast includes Farrell Reynolds as Henry Drummond (based on Clarence Darrow), Monte Stone as Matthew Harrison Brady (William Jennings Bryan), Ann Davies as Mrs. Brady and Michael Frohnhoefer as E. K. Hornbeck (H. L. Mencken).

The producers describe Inherit the Wind as “a plea for tolerance and open discussion of intellectual differences, with an eye toward accommodation rather than conflict.” You can catch it at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, November 11, 12, 18 and 19, or at 3 p.m. on Sundays, November 13 and 20.

Oklahoma! at SUNY-New Paltz When Oklahoma! debuted on Broadway in 1943, it won a special Pulitzer Prize and ran for more than five years, which was a record at the time. War-weary Americans loved the upbeat songs crafted by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II in their first collaboration: “The Surrey with the Fringe on Top,” “People Will Say We’re in Love,” “Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin’,” “Oklahoma!” Most of the critics of the time praised it as well – though a few pointedly preferred the more urbane and sophisticated lyrics of Rodgers’ previous songwriting partner, Lorenz Hart.

Since then, Oklahoma! has taken its place in theatrical history as one of the first “book musicals” (after Show Boat), thoroughly integrating songs into a welldeveloped story, instead of the “story” being a thin and artificial framing device serving only to string a bunch of unrelated production numbers together. And the “dream ballet” sequence, originally choreographed by Agnes DeMille, took the concept of dance in a stage musical to a new level of serious art.

Over time, Oklahoma! came to epitomize the image of Rodgers & Hammerstein as purveyors of wholesome, squeaky-clean, cornball Americana, and productions became fewer as the theatergoing public became fascinated with edgier musicals like

7

ALMANAC WEEKLY Cabaret and A Chorus Line. But interest in the work has been stirring again of late, with producers and directors realizing that Oklahoma!’s darker narrative elements lend themselves to more topical interpretations.

What does one do, in 2016, with a play that features an Iranian character of dubious business ethics, a creepy stalker villain and two female leads who could arguably be portrayed as victims – or even enablers – of sexual assault? A 2012 production in Seattle made audiences queasy by casting a black actor as Jud, forcing a radical reinterpretation of the scene in which Curley recommends that he hang himself.

So it will be most interesting to see what Joe Langworth does to modernize this story when directing and choreographing a new production of Oklahoma! by the Department of Theatre Arts at SUNY-New Paltz, which opens this Thursday and runs through November 20. A Broadway veteran with a slew of award nominations under his belt, Langworth helmed three well-received musicals when he was on the department’s faculty in 2012/13: The Producers, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee and Rent. Liz Toleno will be the musical director with a student cast and crew.

“Having worked on the Lincoln Center revival of South Pacific, I am a huge fan of the collaborations of Rodgers and Hammerstein,” says Langworth. “I find endless possibilities within their work to expose the opposing strength and frailty of human nature.”

Performances of Oklahoma! at SUNYNew Paltz’s McKenna Theatre begin at 8 p.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, November 10 to 12 and 17 to 19, with 2 p.m.

Sunday matinées on November 13 and 20.

Tickets cost $20 general admission, $18 for seniors (62+), New Paltz faculty and staff and non-New Paltz students and $10 for SUNY-New Paltz students. They can be purchased from 11:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The Big Meal coming to SUNY-Ulster Local theatergoers in the know prick up their ears whenever they hear that some new production is being directed by Christine Crawfis. The longtime managing director of the Mohonk Mountain Stage Company and currently on the board of the County Players, Crawfis has a habit of popping up all over the mid-Hudson with dramatic treats in store. The latest place where her deft hand will be making magic behind the curtain is the Theatre Department at SUNY-Ulster, where a new production of Dan LeFranc’s 2011 comedy The Big Meal opens on Thursday, November 17 for four performances.

Inspired, at least in format, by Thornton Wilder’s The Long Christmas Dinner, The Big Meal traces the bumpy course of love through 80 years and five generations of one Midwestern family, depicted entirely through gatherings at a restaurant table.

Variety called the play “ingeniously constructed,” and The New York Times praised its “snappy dialogue.”

Performances of The Big Meal at SUNYUlster’s John Quimby Theater begin at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, November 17 to 19, and at 2 p.m. on Sunday, November 20. Tickets are available at the door for a suggested donation of $10. For more information, call (845) 688-1959. The SUNY-Ulster campus is located at 491 Cottekill Road in Stone Ridge.

Fathom: Hudson River Data as Music premieres at Towne Crier in Beacon

10,000 Maniacs play Bearsville

E

xperimental trumpeter, composer and technologist Ben Neill teams again with his frequent collaborator, the dream-pop songwriter Mimi Goese (Hugo Largo), in what is, on paper at least, one of the most conceptually fascinating avant-garde projects to emerge from that hotbed of experimental and cross-media art that the Beacon area has become.

In association with the Beacon Institute for Rivers and Estuaries of Clarkson University, Neill and Goese present Fathom: Hudson River Data as Music, a world debut of new music on Thursday, November 17 at the Towne Crier Café in Beacon. Fathom uses several novel technologies and their formidable imaginations to “sonify” (convert to music) data gathered by the Institute in the course of Hurricane Sandy.

Hurricane Sandy tore through the Hudson Valley and the Atlantic Northeast in late October of 2012 with a deadly combination of high winds, tides and a Full Moon, generating data that measured physical reactions to the storm. For Fathom, data graphs from seven locations spanning the Adirondacks to West Point document the dynamic Hudson River conditions that will be converted into electronic music onstage at its Towne Crier debut.

10,000 Maniacs have withstood not just the departure of vocalist Natalie Merchant in 1992, but also the death of original guitarist and co-writer Robert Buck in 2000, plus innumerable changes in the years since Merchant left for her chart-topping solo career. This Jamestown, New Yorkbred concern, however, has been active through all of it, and their upcoming performance at the Bearsville Theater on Thursday, November 17 at 8 p.m. is no sentimental reunion. This has been a steadily working and writing band for over three decades – one of the small handful of bands that gets to claim primacy, alongside REM, in the naïve new jangle movement that so refreshed American rock in the 1980s.

GARDENER’S NOTEBOOK

Soil-feeding time An organic blanket keeps the garden snug for the winter

’T

is the season really to put the “organic” in organic gardening. “Organic,” as in organic materials: natural compounds composed mostly of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. “Organic,” as in materials that are or were once living: things like compost, leaves, manure and hay.

I’ve spread compost over almost all my vegetable garden beds. A one-inch depth laid atop each bed provides all the nutrients that the vegetable plants need for a whole season, in addition to other benefits such as snuffing out weeds, holding moisture, improving aeration and nurturing beneficial, pestfighting organisms.

I’m also finishing up the bulk of making new compost for the year. Pretty much everything organic – old vegetable plants, kitchen trimmings, even old cotton clothing – go into the compost piles. The primary foods, though, are hay, which I scythe, rake up and then haul over from my hayfield, and horse manure, which I pitchfork into the bed of my truck, then unload into a garden cart to haul over to the compost bins.

Autumn leaves piled up last year have rotted down into “leaf mold,” essentially the same material as compost, with the same benefits. This pile arrived as a truckload last autumn, thanks to the generosity of local landscaper Mark Masseo. The leaf mold isn’t quite as thoroughly broken down as the compost, so I’m hauling that over to all my young trees and shrubs, and then spreading it beneath them.

I’m also on the lookout for trashbags stuffed with leaves. Local leaf gatherers/baggers contact me when bags are ready for pickup. I toss the bulging bags into the bed of my pickup truck, then haul them over to and unbag them beneath my blueberry, raspberry, currant and gooseberry bushes.

I’m on the lookout for trashbags stuffed with leaves. Local leaf gatherers/baggers contact me when bags are ready for pickup.

All this compost, hay, manure, leaf mold and leaves is food for soil organisms.

Most of the food is carbohydrates: the carbon, hydrogen and oxygen that combine to make the sugars, starches, cellulose, chitin and pectin of living organisms. As carbohydrates are gobbled up, nutrients are released for plants.

In their raw state, these organic materials are relatively low in plant nutrients. Compare the one pound of phosphate that you get from ten pounds of 10-10-10 chemical fertilizer

Saturday, November 19, with a reception and book-signing with the artist from 5 to 7 p.m. Featuring fine art photographs of vintage boomboxes, “The Boombox Project” is a celebration of the iconic portable music device that helped give rise to American hip hop culture, and figured prominently in the rock ‘n’ roll and punk movements of the 1970s and ’80s. The exhibit runs from November 19 through December 23. The Hudson Opera House is located at 327 Warren Street in Hudson. For more information, visit http://hudsonoperahouse.org.

with the 100 pounds of compost that you need to offer that same amount of phosphorus.

You could get that one pound of phosphate from only ten pounds of an “organic” source such as bone meal. That would be easier than shoveling out 100 pounds of compost – but the soil would then be deprived of 90 pounds of carbohydrate and other bulk that feed soil organisms and, in turn, bestow physical, nutritional and biological benefits in the soil.

So I’m continuing to haul manure, hay, leaves, leaf mold and compost for my garden.

It’s also good exercise.

Much lighter work is digging up an amaryllis bulb. I’ve always considered amaryllis too gaudy a plant: one giant, often flaming-red flower appearing atop a bare stalk in early winter. And then, last autumn, someone sent me a big fat amaryllis bulb along with a pot to plant it in, as well as some potting mix. How could I help but plant it?

The flowers were prolific and awesome, flower after flower (yes, flaming-red) appearing on each stalk, and stalk after stalk of flowers. This one was a keeper.

Green leaves, the more the better, are what fuel the following year’s blossoms (one flowerstalk for every nine leaves, according to one source). Periodic little fertilizer and, as needed, water kept the plant growing well until warm weather settled in for good in spring. Then I tipped the bulb out of its pot and nestled it into a hole in a bed in part shade, with rich soil and drip irrigation.

Just before a night when temperatures dipped into the low 20s, I dug up the bulb and potted it up. It now sits, unwatered and leafless, in the cool temperatures of my northfacing mudroom. A couple of months of cool temperatures, 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit, are good for waking up the flowerbuds within the now-fatter bulb – and its small baby pup, thank you.

HISTORY

November 10, 2016

“HISTORY DOESN'T REPEAT ITSELF, but it does rhyme.”

– Mark Twain

A pair for posterity The history of the Haviland -Heidgerd Collection in New Paltz

T

his is the story of two remarkable people who, 51 years ago, envisioned a place in New Paltz where people from near and far could come and research their genealogy or learn about local history – a place where membership was not required, with regular hours, a knowledgeable staff and a collection of research materials that were guaranteed to be there when you needed them. These two people were Mary Stuart Irish Vanderlyn Haviland and William "Bill" Heidgerd.

Mary Stuart Irish was born in Putnam County in 1882. She came to the Normal School in New Paltz to become a teacher, but instead, fell in love with a local boy, Joseph Hasbrouck Vanderlyn, who grew up in the house by the Village Tea Room.

He went to Cornell and followed in his father’s footsteps and became a lawyer.

When elected New Paltz town supervisor in 1914, he was (and still is) the youngest man to fill that position. He was wellremembered by many of the residents of his community for his civic achievements and for his warm and friendly personality.

The couple married in 1907 and had one daughter, Magdalena. In 1917, at the age of 36, Joseph had an attack of appendicitis and died, leaving Mary a young widow.

During her residence in New Paltz, Mary was a member of the New Paltz Study Club, the Dutch Reformed Church and many other organizations. When she died

HAVILAND-HEIDGERD HISTORICAL COLLECTION

Mary Stuart Haviland and Bill Heidgerd's love of Hudson Valley history and libraries inspired them to create a treasure trove of historical and genealogical documents at the Elting Memorial Library in downtown New Paltz.

in 1971, she was the last survivor of the seven founders of the New Paltz Reading Room: the forerunner of what would become the Elting Memorial Library.

Five years after her husband Joseph’s death, Mary married Edward Haviland, and lived the rest of her life in Florida.

For more than the next 60 years Mary continued to support the library in New Paltz – not only financially, but also with her annual trips to the library, in which she would see something that needed doing, and would gladly lend a hand in its accomplishment. In memory of her first husband, she contributed the money to the library for the stone wall and landscaping along Main Street. There

is a small plaque with Joseph's name, inset in the wall near the steps to the old library entrance.

In January 1965, the library's local history collection was named the Mary Stuart Haviland History Collection, in Mary's honor. The first director of that collection was William Heidgerd (the other remarkable person whom I will discuss now).

Bill Heidgerd was born in New York City in 1902, the son of Diederich H e i d g e r d and Mabel S c h o o n m a k e r.

After attending C o l u m b i a University, Pace College and Pennsylvania State University, Bill and his family moved to Michigan, where he met and married Ruth Parsons in 1944.

Bill was employed from 1924 to 1962 as a salesman for Jones and Laughlin Steel Corporation. He spent many nights on the road, traveling all over the Northeast; but unlike most salesmen, Bill occupied

his evenings in libraries researching his family history. His matrilineal family history is what kept bringing Bill back to Ulster County, and when he retired, Bill brought his family to New Paltz. They moved to Huguenot Street into the house that we know as the LeFevre or the 1799 House.

Both Bill and his wife were lovers of old books and had considered opening up a rare book store upon Bill's retirement.

Instead, they met up with Kenneth Hasbrouck, another avid historian and genealogist, who soon enlisted Bill’s help in preserving the old houses on Huguenot Street. The Heidgerds donated their rare book collection to the Huguenot Historical Society in order to start a library specializing in local history and genealogy. Unfortunately, due to financial constraints, Bill soon realized that his dream of making Huguenot Street a Mecca for genealogists was not to be. But Bill was not deterred. Since he was on the Board of Trustees of the Elting Memorial Library, he began campaigning for a noncirculating research section of the library to be opened, specializing in local history and genealogy.

Bill Heidgerd had a certain sparkle in his eye that made it virtually impossible for anyone to say no to him. (I guess that came from so many years of selling steel.)

Certainly the other members of the library board and Mary Haviland were soon captured by his charm – and the rest is history. For ten years, as its first director, Bill built up both the collection’s holdings and reputation. Bill saw in Irene Martin the perfect successor to him as director, as she shared Bill’s enthusiasm for the historical collection.

It was Bill who first hired me to work at the library as his research assistant, helping him with a genealogy that he was compiling at the time. Every day, when I take out a book for a person that contains some of Bill's research, I can’t help but think back 30 years ago, when I first worked for him at the collection. I still see Bill in my mind's eye, pecking away with two fingers on his old typewriter, and I like to imagine what he could have accomplished if he only had access to a computer.

Both Bill and Ruth Heidgerd were authors and compilers of many books, articles and accounts pertaining to the history of New Paltz and the Hudson River

Bill Heidgerd had a certain sparkle in his eye that made it virtually impossible for anyone to say no to him.

Best of both worlds Great excitement!

The Countess of Krockow Historic Huguenot Street presents lecture on Alida Mary Schoonmaker, Countess of Krockow this Saturday

Alton Brown

TASTE

Broadway-bound Alton Brown Live: Eat Your Science at UPAC

I

haven’t been able to pin down which waggish food writer said it first, but anyone who has ever attempted substitution of ingredients knows the truth of the platitude, “Cooking is art; baking is science.” Your cake will slump if you put in too little baking powder, and taste like tinfoil if you put in too much. But celebrity chef/author Alton Brown takes that truism as a challenge in his live touring shows, treating his culinary tools and materials as a chemistry set, always ready for risky experimentation. He brings a new edition of Eat Your Science to the Ulster Performing Arts Center (UPAC) in Kingston on Thursday, November 17: an affordable out-of-town tryout preparatory to its Broadway premiere on November 22.

Creator, producer and host for 13 years of the Peabody Award-winning series Good Eats on the Food Network, Brown promises “bigger and better potentially dangerous food demonstrations” in his latest live culinary variety show. That’s not to mention songs, comedy and puppets, audience participation and “things I’ve never been allowed to do on TV.” Adventurous-minded foodies can witness Alton Brown Live: Eat Your Science at UPAC beginning at 8 p.m. on Thursday, November 17. Tickets range in price from $55 to $130, based on location, and can be purchased from the Bardavon box office at 35 Market Street in Poughkeepsie, (845) 473-2072; the UPAC box office at 601 Broadway in Kingston, (845) 339-6088; or through Ticketmaster at (800) 745-3000 or www.ticketmaster.com.

Valley. To name just a few, Bill compiled the 20-volume Descendants of Chretian DuBois, The Goetshius Family History, The Elting Family in America, The Black History of New Paltz and The Records of the St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church. Bill held memberships in many historical and genealogical societies. He was also a New Paltz Village Trustee, and chairman of the Board of Assessors of New Paltz.

Bill was associated with the Elting Memorial Library for nearly 40 years.

The library recognized his tireless efforts on behalf of local history in 1973, and renamed the collection the HavilandHeidgerd Historical Collection. Bill died at age 90 in September 1992.

Together, Bill and Mary Vanderlyn Haviland made quite a team. It was their lifelong love of libraries and the rich history that New Paltz had to offer

that brought them together and inspired them to start and develop the Historical Collection, which today has grown to be known as an excellent source of information concerning the settlement and growth of this part of the Hudson Valley.

Irene Martin fell under Bill Heidgerd’s spell and took over for him as director of the collection in 1974. During her tenure, the collection grew, and moved from an upstairs room in the library's old stone building to an area built just for the collection in 1978. Two staff positions were added to assist patrons and answer queries. Irene conducted oral history interviews, led walking tours and arranged for history-related programs and classes at the library – all with the unstinting support of John Giralico, the Elting Memorial Library's far-seeing

director. Irene retired in 1996 and now lives outside Atlanta.

Marion Ryan was my predecessor as coordinator of the collection. Marion taught me more about the everyday running of a library than anyone else – including the correct way to type an old catalogue card, of which she used to type 30 to 40 for one book!

Which leads us to Dr. William B. Rhoads and his wife Sally: the Heidgerd and Haviland of today. Bill Rhoads is well-known Hudson Valley historian and preservationist, the author of Ulster County, New York: The Architectural History and Guide and professor emeritus of architectural history at SUNY-New Paltz. Sally has served as the Village's deputy mayor, and president of the Elting Memorial Library board and the New Paltz school board. The money for the

Throughout history, no matter how patriarchal the culture, there have always been smart, feisty women blazing their trails and leaving their marks. Among the archives of Historic Huguenot Street (HHS) is a trove of letters left behind by 19th-century rebel Alida Mary Schoonmaker, a young intellectual from Saugerties who married into an aristocratic German family, only to become an influential voice of criticism of that country’s militaristic rise under the Junker class prior to World War I. “From Hudson Valley Anarchist to Prussian Aristocrat: The Story of Alida Mary Schoonmaker, Countess of Krockow (1857-1940)” is the title of a lecture to be presented this Saturday afternoon at Deyo Hall in New Paltz by former HHS executive director and archivist Eric Roth. The presentation will be enhanced by a temporary exhibit of materials and documents from the HHS archives, curated by archivist/librarian Carrie Allmendinger. Besides her voluminous correspondence, Schoonmaker ’s remarkable life is documented in dozens of articles that she published in such American journals as the Atlantic Monthly, The Independent, the New York Tribune and Good Housekeeping.

The program will take place at 2 p.m. on Saturday, November 12. Tickets cost $10 general admission and $9 for seniors, students, military and HHS members. To register, visit www.huguenotstreet.org/ rsvp. Deyo Hall is located at 6 Broadhead Avenue in New Paltz.

Meatball City Student-designed restaurant now open at CIA in Hyde Park

C

onsider the meatball: It’s round. It’s plain. It’s predictable. If there’s a simpler foodstuff to be found in your memory or menu, it can only be the pasta that usually accompanies it (or maybe the water that the pasta was boiled in).

Now consider the Culinary Institute of America (CIA), the region’s premier provider of the haute and the mighty expensive meal: dishes so rarefied, so glorified, so exotic that it seems a shame to eat them. They should be bronzed and placed on the mantle, there to delight and astound your envious visitors.

As incongruous as it may seem, the meatball and the CIA have found common ground within the Institute’s curriculum.

CIA, say hello to Meatball City.

With its reputation as a provider of skilled and talented chefs in the region and elsewhere around the world, it’s easy

ALMANAC WEEKLY

to forget that the CIA is an educational institution, and that its educational menu isn’t limited to what goes on around the stove.

The college’s recently instituted “intrapreneurial” bachelor’s degree concentration is a case in point. The program requires students not only to draw on their cooking skills, but also to learn and participate in practices not ordinarily associated with those skills, such as accounting, purchasing and, perhaps most challenging of all, human resources and management skills. The idea is to acquaint matriculating students with the skills necessary to pitch, run and develop a successful food service operation of their own devising in what’s known in the industry as “fast casual” dining.

As that name suggests, a fast-casual restaurant bridges the gap between classic McDonald’s-style fast food and fulltable-service eateries. The food is usually more varied and of better quality than assembly-line burgers, but not as pricey as a traditional sit-down-and-be-served restaurant. Typical examples include outlets like Boston Market, Chipotle Mexican Grill and Panera Bread.

The concentration begins when several self-selected cohorts of up to 20 students brainstorm and settle on an idea for a unique, practical and (of course) tasty concept. Such things as menu development, facility design, inventory management and sanitation regulation compliance must all support the project.

Once the preliminaries are agreed to, the student groups then pitch their concepts

to a panel of industry professionals and faculty. Annette Graham, dean of the CIA’s School of Business and Management Studies, likened the review process to Shark Tank. “It’s very competitive,” she said.

Once chosen, the winning team gets to implement its concept and run every

aspect of the idea that it developed, with everything from hiring the help to designing the logo to serving the campus community (and wayfaring visitors) for a full semester.

Associate professor Bill Guilfoyle’s career in the food industry includes a dozen years with the Quilted Giraffe restaurant. He says that amid all the difficulties faced by the student groups, cooperation is the most difficult to achieve.

The idea of group cooperation is another aspect of the “intrapreneurship” idea that runs counter to the CIA’s reputation for producing top-flight chefs. Guilfoyle nods

in knowing assent when questioned about the difficulties of helping students on the cusp of careers where the chef is king.

“Learning to work with one another is one of the most challenging aspects,” he says. “For fine dining, not so much.”

As for Meatball City, it’s not what you might expect: Instead of pasta, you can have your meatballs served with rice pilaf, polenta or – for traditionalists – a sub roll.

Meatball City will close up shop at the beginning of winter break. Whether it becomes a legend or a memory, a Chipotle or a Chi-Chi’s, only time and taste will tell.

As I walked out of Houst Hardware in Woodstock with some tape for my office next door, I nearly knocked over a raggedy looking man racing to the Shindig Café. He said, “Sorry, late for the bus… need coffee!” he looked so poor, I thought about offering to buy it for him. To my shock, I discovered later that he owns a hedge fund in Manhattan and was supposedly a multi-millionaire!

That’s Woodstock for you; where you learn not to judge a book by its cover!

I was equally surprised when Richard Miller took me to a very unusual listing in Woodstock, take a look, wouldn’t you agree?

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