Inequality fight must go onWithin the span of a week, I’ve read news accounts of men sentenced for raping an unconscious woman. As it happens, both have the last name “Turner.” The first story was of a “promising college athlete” at a prestigious California university, sentenced to six months in jail for his crime. The second story is of a young man from a poor neighborhood in Rochester, New York. This man was sentenced to 20 years in prison. It seems that if your first name is “Brock” rather than “Sante” and you’re from a well-off family and attend college, you are judged by a different set of rules than someone with a less polished resume. When I hear people talk about racial inequality and they state that things aren’t as bad as they used to be, I try to get them to see that racial and economic inequality continue to be major issues in spite of the many accomplishments achieved and barriers broken down over the years. Bernie Sanders gets it. He talks about these issues all the time. I hope that whatever happens in November, his message will continue to be heard and that people will actually listen and take action to continue fighting to end inequality, be it based on race, gender, religion, economic status, sexual preference, sexual identity, or political party. We need to come together rather than continue pushing each other apart. It needs to start right here at home in Rochester.MARTIN PETRELLA

A Republican vote for Hillary ClintonNow that Hillary Clinton is the presumptive Democratic nominee

and Donald Trump is the best my party can offer me in a candidate for president, I have already decided my vote. I have been a registered Republican ever since I was old enough to vote, and I almost always helped select my party’s nominee. I worked for the Young Republicans while in college and sometime thereafter. I felt disloyal to my party when I did vote for a Democrat. No matter what mistakes or errors of judgement the Republican candidate made or would make, I still supported him. This election will be different. My vote will be given to Hillary Clinton. As an investor and landlord, I have a great deal of respect for the businessman Donald Trump. That respect ends there. How can I, as a longtime Republican, give my approval to a person who has no political experience whatsoever on his resume? I am completely turned off by anything Donald Trump has to say because he doesn’t represent my Republican points of view. Anything he says seems to be focused on him first and then our country. He seems to have little respect for women who are less pretty than his wife and daughter. Trump having been married three times does not set a good marriage role model as president. Many other issues as well will keep me from celebrating a Trump presidency. I started out by saying that my vote will be cast for Hillary Clinton. In this case, I do not feel a sense of disloyalty, but rather good old common sense. America needs a leader who has solid political experience. Hillary has this. We are familiar with all of the Clinton drama of years past, so it is just old news or more of the same. Our taxes are already supplying the Clintons with lifetime Secret Service, so that will just continue. More than anything, I have been impressed with Hillary as she gets attacked from two sides, Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump, while still managing to keep her cool and dignity. What better person could be chosen to prepare America for and win

its acceptance of a woman president than Hillary Clinton?DOUGLAS ALLEN

Purpose of yoga has been lostI felt nauseated reading the article about the pairing of yoga and alcohol (Summer Guide, June 1). We have already managed to Westernize, materialize, and distort yoga into a glorified aerobics class complete with a blaring Dave Matthews Band soundtrack and loads of sweaty folks wearing overly-tight, overly-priced clothing. Please, to those who teach these classes, have a grain of respect for the tradition of yoga: a practice and a discipline which aims to align the body and the mind by slowing the hectic-ness of our thoughts through breath and movement. The goal of yoga is not to be the skinniest b**** with the most advanced body contortion. The goal is to make your body and mind flexible and strong enough to sit in meditation comfortably. Somewhere along the way, teachers have missed the point entirely and are providing a gross disservice to students whose first experience with yoga is paired with a drink. Now, I am not one to refuse a delicious beer or three, but as a yoga practitioner for over 20 years and a yoga instructor for 15, I am horrified that you call this experience “yoga.” Please, call it what it is, “stretching and drinking,” even “asana and drinking.” But it is most definitely NOT yoga. Secondly, up your insurance policy if you continue to teach this, because invariably someone will get hurt. TINA MURTY

On RCSD’s superintendent searchI hope when our new superintendent arrives that he assesses what’s working and what’s not and from this assessment see what needs to be tweaked or tossed rather than coming in thinking that he has the magic pill. This often seems to be the issue when we get new folks. LDM

It’s time to abandon the abhorrent “guns don’t kill people, people do” mindset. It’s dismissive, reckless, negligent, and it ignores reality. And that reality is this: repeatedly, the wrong people have been able to get their hands on guns that fire off tens of rounds in seconds, with tragic results. To these people, the guns are easily accessible, powerful, efficient instruments of death. Look, I’m reluctant to wade into public debates about guns; they become vicious and divisive so fast, and they are generally unproductive. But this country really needs to have an honest conversation about guns, and I’m tired of holding my tongue. In my lifetime, I’ve seen so much death, injury, and fear caused by guns. I remember watching breaking news reports from Columbine in a friend’s dorm room and feeling so confused. When a Virginia Tech student killed 32 people on the school’s campus, and then himself, I struggled — and failed — to make sense of the tragedy. When a gunman killed 20 children at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut, I was horrified. The Orlando shooting was an attack on the LGBTQ community, and specifically on LGBTQ people of color. Friends, acquaintances, and colleagues grieve the loss of life and because, once again, someone singled out people just like them as targets. But this time it wasn’t some seriously misguided bathroom bill or someone spewing garbage about building a border fence. This time it was a massacre. And now I’m watching the gun debate unfold again; the same one we’ve had every single time the wrong person gets his hands on a powerful weapon and opens fire. In his eight years in the White House, President

Barack Obama has delivered 14 speeches after mass shootings. The Daily Show pointed out that he’s hosted only 12 state dinners over that same time. I am so pissed off. This county has talked about the problems posed by semi-automatic weapons coupled with high-capacity magazines since I was a child. The US had a national ban on those sorts of weapons and magazines at one point, but gun makers found easy loopholes and the ban expired years ago. Some states have their own laws, too. In New York we’re fortunate to have the SAFE Act, which does something very important: it limits the size of magazines that can be sold in the state. I don’t hate guns, and I don’t think they should all be banned. Semi-auto rifles and handguns do have valid civilian uses. And while I don’t really buy into the idea of guns as a means of personal protection, I suppose that if you’re going to go down that path, a handgun that can fire a few shots quickly is important. But some of the systems on the market have no business in civilian hands, and the Orlando shooter’s gear falls into this category. He bought the firearms legally; he passed a background check even though he had been interviewed by the FBI twice

Too much firepower, not enough reasonIn practically every discussion of gun violence, some Second Amendment type inevitably invokes the old, cringe-worthy cliché: Guns don’t kill people, people do. So let’s re-frame what happened in Orlando. A person murdered 49 people and injured more than 50 others in an atrocious act of hate violence. His tools of choice: a semi-automatic assault rifle and a semi-automatic pistol, both of which have high-capacity magazines as standard equipment. Guns don’t kill people, but they make it pretty simple for someone with the worst of intentions to kill or wound a lot of people in moments. That’s what happened in Orlando, just as it happened in Newtown and San Bernardino and Aurora and oh my God, the list goes on and on. And sadly, it will grow.

NewsCity of Rochester looking for Midtown projects The City of Rochester is soliciting proposals for a vacant parcel at the Midtown site downtown. Two businesses respond-ed to a 2015 call by the city for proposals for the same site, but both pitches were rejected. Also under consideration for the Midtown par-cel is a Seneca Nation casino with a performing arts center.

LDCs’ days are numberedThe State Assembly and Senate passed legislation that allows Monroe Coun-ty officials to dissolve three local development corporations. The leg-islation lets the county borrow money to buy out service contracts with Monroe Newpower, Mon-roe Security and Safety Systems, and Upstate Telecommunications Corporation.

COMIDA livesThe Monroe County Legislature approved three appointments to the board of the Mon-roe County Industrial Development Agency. The appointees are: Inde-pendence Party member Anthony Meleo, who’s worked in the construc-tion industry and now

teaches skilled trades for Monroe 2-Orleans BOCES; Democrat Peter Buckley, a project exec-utive at DGA Builders; and Democrat Dan Kuntz, business manager for the Rochester Building Trades Council.

Assembly member David Gantt tried to block the bill, citing cost overruns and other complaints, but the measure passed with overwhelming sup-port. The bill has been approved by the Senate and now waits for the governor’s signature.

Lighthouse Pointe developers want to build 125 apartments some commercial space along the Genesee River's east bank. PROVIDED RENDERING

DEVELOPMENT | BY JEREMY MOULE

Developers are moving forward with plans to develop a 5.5-acre track on the Genesee River in Irondequoit for housing and commercial space. Lighthouse Pointe was proposed in 2007, but the town’s Planning Board has just recently started reviewing the project. The recession contributed to the delay. “This has been a long time coming,” says Irondequoit Supervisor David Seeley. The developers of Lighthouse Pointe want to combine residential and commercial space with the marina that’s already on the site. And there would be public waterfront access via a park.

The park portion of the plan would require the City of Rochester to sell the project’s consortium of investors an eight-acre lot adjacent to the Irondequoit property, says environmental attorney Alan Knauf, a partner in the project. Right now, developers are seeking Irondequoit’s approval for the project’s first phase: three buildings containing 125 apartments, which would be located just south of the O’Rorke bridge. The smallest building would have residential space and 8,000 square feet of commercial space. The two other buildings would have four stories of residential space on top of a level of enclosed parking.

The condition of the site also contributed to the project’s delay. It’s a former landfill, and some cleanup work will be necessary before construction can begin. The project’s developer fought the State Department of Environmental Conservation to get the site into the state’s brownfield program, which provides tax benefits and pollution liability waivers to the developer. A state appeals court ultimately ordered the agency to admit the site. “We think it will be a real positive for the environment and the community,” Knauf says of Lighthouse Pointe.

After more than a year of public debate, the Rochester school board unanimously approved a new code of conduct policy last week. Board members Malik Evans and Cynthia Elliott were not present and did not vote. The new policy steers student discipline away from a more punitive approach to instead focus on restorative justice-style practices, such as having students talk about the impact that their behavior has on their peers and on the school environment. The policy limits suspensions to only the most serious offenses. The policy change discussion has been closely watched by the Rochester school community, drawing the attention of students, family members, and community activists. Critics of the district’s high suspension rates cite national studies as well as district data showing that black students receive harsher punishment than their white peers for the same offenses. Some teachers and administrators say that they support the new policy in principle, but that many students also need social-emotional support and alternative programs, but they aren’t getting that help. School board President Van White said that approving the new policy is just the first step in improving school climate and that implementation is the real challenge.

The Rochester Public Library may look to Aquinas Institute to solve the cramped conditions at its Maplewood branch. It will also do an assessment of all 10 of its branch libraries, probably over the winter, to evaluate each’s needs, says director Patricia Uttaro. The branch study came up at a recent City Council review of the Public Library’s budget, where Uttaro also talked about library funding and the need for security at the Arnett Library in the city’s 19th ward. The volatility of the surrounding neighborhood has prompted Arnett to hire an unarmed, part-time security guard, Uttaro says. It’s currently the only branch library with security. Maplewood is one of the Rochester Public Library’s busiest branches, largely due to an influx of refugees into the area, and the use is taking a toll on the building, Uttaro says. The foundation has shifted, which has knocked the front doors out of whack, she says. Rebar is coming out of the front steps, Uttaro says, and the walls have cracks. The Public Library is interested in acquiring vacant property that Aquinas owns on the north side of the Maplewood branch, between a school driveway and

the library, to expand Maplewood, Uttaro says. Aquinas seems to be open to discussions, she says, so the Public Library will work with the City of Rochester’s real estate division to get those talks rolling. “All of this is just pure speculation at this point,” she says. “But the long-term intention is that Maplewood will be our next library project in the branches.” The Public Library has considered relocating the Maplewood library or adding a second floor, Uttaro says, but neither option seems quite right. The library is in a good spot, she says, and adding another floor would mean hiring more staff, which is an expensive option. Overall, the branch libraries are in pretty good shape, Uttaro says, but each building has its own needs. Charlotte needs lighting and interior work, for example, and the Wheatley library’s main entrance and parking lot should be made to line up, she says. Right now you have to walk around the building to get in.

Many of the branches need upgrades to their meeting spaces, Uttaro says. She also talks about creating early learning spaces in the branches and to make better use of the Toy Library at the Lincoln branch on Joseph Avenue. Demand at the Toy Library is soaring, Uttaro says. The Public Library will use the report from the needs assessment to help make its case to the city to fund the work, she says. A master space plan completed for the Central Library previously helped get money from the city for that library, she says. “Having the same kind of plan for our branch libraries we hope will give us that same kind of leverage,” Uttaro says.

The stretch of Monroe Avenue between I-590 and Clover Street is congested and chaotic. And Brighton officials and residents worry that putting a Whole Foods store and retail plaza along the north side of this densely developed corridor will only aggravate the situation. “We’re going to have to look to see what further impact this will have, what ways there are of mitigating it,” says Brighton Supervisor Bill Moehle. “The proposal as it now stands is certainly not cast in concrete.” The Daniele family is proposing four buildings, totaling about 94,000 square feet of space. A 55,000-square-foot Whole Foods store would go in roughly the same location as the now-closed Mario’s restaurant on Monroe, which was owned and operated by the Danieles. One of the other buildings would be a standalone Starbucks coffee shop with a drive-through. A public hearing on the project’s environmental statement will take place at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 22, at Brighton Town Hall, 2300 Elmwood Avenue. Traffic considerations are part of the environment statement. The town will also take written comments on the statement through 5 p.m.

on Monday, July 18. Send your comments to the town clerk at Town Hall. The development would be on a segment of Monroe that carries approximately 39,000 vehicles a day on average, according to the State Department of Transportation; it’s the busiest section of Monroe Avenue. During peak times, traffic on this stretch moves at the pace of sludge. Cars stack up at lights, intersections get blocked with cars, and desperate drivers often divert to residential streets looking for an out. Even when traffic flows well, there are still roughly a dozen driveways off that section of Monroe and a turn lane down the center of road, which all adds up to a confusing and sometimes risky mess. “The road system on Monroe Avenue is failing,” says Robert Galbraith, who lives on Allens Creek Road.

The Danieles pitched the development as an asset to Brighton. They tout the tax benefits and the new shopping options, and they offered to improve sidewalks and a multi-use trail that pass along or through the site. In return, they’re asking the town to let them build a project that’s far bigger than allowed under the site’s current zoning.

The developers estimate that the project, particularly the marquee grocer, will pull in a few hundred vehicles during peak hours: some new and some that would’ve passed through the corridor anyway. And they’ve presented a plan to try to improve traffic flow. Under the proposal, the Whole Foods Plaza would have two driveways, one of which would line up with a new traffic light. The developers are also working with a few property owners on the south side of Monroe Avenue to consolidate driveways and locate a main access at the proposed light, which would be located at what’s now the driveway of the Sakura Home restaurant. The developers say that reducing the number of entrance and exit points on the target stretch of road will improve traffic flow by creating safer, better functioning roadways. But their environmental document also says that the signal could cause additional peak-hour delays within the corridor. “The future growth and vitality of this segment of the Monroe Avenue corridor depends largely on achieving a balance between the future transportation and land-use demands within the corridor,” the environmental document says.

Government officials and residents near the project site say that the developers need to convince them that the signal and access plan will alleviate the additional traffic caused by the development. They’re concerned that the developers might have underestimated the project’s potential impact on traffic and they’re worried about the possibility of extended delays in the corridor, they say. The State DOT has to approve the light, but department staff told the developers that it appears warranted. But the DOT, too, cautioned about additional delays during peak times. “We want to make sure that we’re not introducing a circumstance or we’re going to have traffic backing up on the expressway, for example,” says Lori Maher, a spokesperson for the State DOT’s Rochester regional office. “We don’t want traffic stopped on 590, we don’t want intersections further down the corridor to be impacted and then not function properly.”

Allens Creek resident Robert Galbraith says that the Danieles should pursue a development that doesn’t impact traffic as much as Whole Foods, which would draw shoppers from across the region. But it’s unlikely that the developers will walk away from a tenant with the prestige and profile of Whole Foods. Other residents suggest scaling the project back; a destination grocery store and big retail plaza are just too much for the site, they say. Town officials have dropped similar hints. During a May 25 meeting, Town Board member Chris Werner said that he wants the site developed, but that the Daniele family’s project may be too intense for the “really difficult” corridor. State DOT staff says that the developers could build a “relief valve” by putting access points for the plaza off of Clover Street, Allens Creek Road, or both. But many people in the adjacent neighborhoods don’t like that idea, because it might increase traffic on their residential streets. The developers removed access via Clover or Allens Creek from their most recent plans. Ben Werzinger, who lives in the Shoreham Drive neighborhood off of Clover Street, says that he can live with the plaza as long as it doesn’t have access points off of Clover or Allens Creek. “I’m just a little bit concerned that at the end of the day that we can hold them to that,” he says. “I feel like they’re sort of angling to put that back on the table and that’s worrisome.”

he oldest of Francine Lynch’s three children will graduate high school next year and plans to go to college. Lynch works for the University of Rochester, so her daughter

could go there for a fraction of the normal cost, but her daughter is interested in a career program that the UR doesn’t offer. Finding the money for her daughter’s choice school is giving Lynch night terrors. “It makes me very anxious and sleep-deprived,” she says. “I wonder if I’m going to be in debt for the rest of my life.” Lynch says that she always imagined that she would pay for her children’s college education. Four years at a state college seemed doable once, she says, but now that appears out of reach, too. “I’ve told my daughter that her job is to apply for scholarships, scholarships, scholarships, because I am just overwhelmed with how much this is going to cost,” Lynch says. Lynch is not alone; many college students and parents share her anxieties. This helps explain why free college, a key part of Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders’ campaign platform, is so appealing. For some, free college is a battle cry for social reform that crosses generations. The concept is especially appealing to younger people impacted by record high amounts of student loan debt who, as a result, are delaying other important life decisions such as buying a home, marrying, and starting a family. Sanders and Hillary Clinton, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, both promote “forgiveness” programs for student loan debt. For others, free college is little more than a shrewd political ploy wrapped in an appealing populist message. But either way, making college free does not make its costs disappear. And a national discussion about exactly how higher education is funded in the US, its true costs, and what can be done to make it more affordable is long overdue, many say. Even experts familiar with the dizzying logistics of education finance admit that it is an incredibly complex and intimidating world to navigate.

Talk about free college in the US has been around for some time, says Heidi Macpherson, president of the SUNY College at Brockport. Most of the proposals concern free two-year public or community colleges and involve what are referred to as “last dollar policies.” When students receive their financial aid, grants, and scholarships and it’s still not enough, free college advocates have tried to find ways to fill that gap, she says. But it’s a vexing challenge because each person’s situation is different and one-size approaches won’t meet everyone’s needs. What is often overlooked in those conversations is that tuition is only a part of the cost that needs to be covered; some colleges charge administrative fees, and there’s the cost of textbooks, food, and housing. “One of the inherent problems with this kind of narrative is that it never appreciates the nuance of things,” Macpherson says. “This kind of broad brush stroke is never close to the reality.” Macpherson says that a big reality often overlooked is that while higher education is not free in the US, the federal and state governments do contribute significantly to its costs. “I think that students and parents don’t understand that they’ve never paid the full cost of

higher education,” Macpherson says. “Their tuition doesn’t actually cover the cost of educating students, and I think Bernie Sanders has given us the opportunity for that public debate.” Sanders makes the case for the US to join some European countries by looking at college more as an extension of public K-12 schools. Access to K-12 in the US is universal and free, and many states have added universal free prekindergarten to that package. Now it’s time to make college free and universal, too, the argument goes. Sanders says that one way to do that is to redirect federal funds — tax revenues — to cover about two-thirds of the cost of public colleges. He wants the money to come from a tax on Wall Street transactions. The states would have to come up with the remaining third. Millions of Americans seem to wholeheartedly agree with Sanders, at least in principle. But economic professors from the College of William and Mary in Virginia, Robert Archibald and David Feldman, have looked at the issue of free college extensively and they’ve come to a different conclusion. The authors of “Why Does College Cost So Much?” say that Americans, ironically, are poorly educated when it comes to how higher education in the US is financed. And the professors don’t see how Sanders’ approach would work because there are serious structural obstacles that would need to be addressed by Congress and state legislatures. In an article they co-wrote earlier this year for the Washington Post, Archibald and Feldman talked about annual tuition rates under the Sanders model. “In 2013-14, the average level of in-state tuition at the nation’s four-year public universities was $8,312,” they said. But some states have a higher average tuition because the amount they appropriate to higher education is lower. Families in the high-tuition states stand to receive a larger benefit under the Sanders plan while families in other states would see a much smaller benefit. It’s hard to imagine members of Congress in the “losing” states going along with this plan. What’s needed instead is a clearer understanding of college financing, Archibald says. The College Board publishes annual reports about trends in higher education financing and the findings might surprise some people, he says. For instance, the 2015 report shows that the average annual rate of tuition increase at private, nonprofit four-year schools has declined since 1985-86 from about 3.5 percent to 2.4 percent for 2015-16. But tuition at many public or state colleges and universities is increasing at a higher rate, so students and parents are paying more of the cost. And if you’re an out-of-state student planning to attend a public school, you can expect to pay more, too.

Adding to the confusion about the cost of college is how the institutions market themselves. There’s often a striking difference between the price that colleges and universities advertise and what many students actually pay. Many students don’t pay the full sticker price once grants, scholarships, and sweeteners that institutions offer to attract high achievers are factored in. William and Mary’s David Feldman says that the US basically has two programs to help students pay for college. “The federal government and the state government intervene in the higher education market in complementary but very different ways,” he says. “The federal government provides aid through Pell Grants to students through a need-based qualifying formula.” The Federal Pell Grant Program has several advantages, Feldman says: it’s portable and follows the student; it can be used at a public school or a private nonprofit school; and it’s targeted to high-achieving students from low-income households. And since it’s a grant, the money doesn’t need to be repaid. The federal government has increased the amount of money it distributes through the Pell Grant Program, but critics say that it’s not nearly enough. And many poorer families don’t know how to complete the application and often fail to provide all of the information needed, Feldman says. State funding for higher education works differently. States such as New York and California, for example, have built quality systems of higher education, and tuitions have been historically

low for in-state students. Brockport costs $6,470 a year, for example. And if a student starts out at Monroe Community College and transfers to Brockport after two years, for instance, he or she is able to earn a college degree fairly economically. The lower-cost state systems are generally seen as long term public investments that benefit state economies. Unfortunately, though, while the federal government has increased its contribution in the form of Pell Grants, some states have passed more of their costs on to students. Still, this two-pronged approach can significantly reduce what students and their families actually pay for a college education compared to its real dollar costs, Feldman says. He says that the public’s anxiety about the cost of college is at least partly due to some other factors, starting with income distribution in the US over the last 40 years. “If you go back to the 1970’s, you are in the halcyon of income equality,” Feldman says. “Income from the late 1930’s to the 1940’s and the World War II era right through 1970 was at its most equal in recorded history. In the early ‘80’s that started to change.” What’s different today is that income growth is occurring at the top, he says. The top 1 percent has received nearly all of the gains from the economy over the last 40 years, he says. The bottom has received almost nothing. And while those individuals who you might call upper-middle income and above are doing better economically than the average person, they’ve watched their income flat line, particularly over the last 15 years. It’s the students from households in this latter group who are generally feeling more of the financial pinch because they are less likely to qualify for federal aid. Those students and students from wealthy households are more likely to pay the full costs of college, according to Feldman. And they still have all of the other economic pressures, including the rising costs of everything from food to heat and electricity. Feldman says that it would help if more students and families received better financial counseling well before the college years arrive. Many of the horror stories about high student debt are the result of poor decisions and a lack of financial planning, he says. And there are studies that support his point. They show that many students don’t know basic information about their loans, including the amounts they’ve borrowed and at what interest rates. Some critics of the free college concept see this as a prime reason why some student debt is not necessarily a bad thing. Without something at stake, it’s too easy to let the meter run on someone else’s dime, they say. Could more be done to reduce the cost of higher education? Feldman says that more restraint could be shown in deciding what improvements should be made to a college or university. For instance, is a state-of-the-art gymnasium and pool a necessity?

and was on the agency’s terrorism watch list. US law doesn’t prohibit people on the watch list or the no-fly list from buying guns. So that’s how the shooter was able to get a Sig Sauer MCX rifle, a matte-black machine with styling so aggressive that it looks like it was plucked right out of a SWAT officer’s hands. Gun enthusiasts have made a big show of criticizing the media for referring to the gun as an AR-15, the most common assault rifle. They’re right; it’s not an AR-15. It’s worse. Sig Sauer built it to be lighter, shorter, and quieter. Its standard magazine holds 30 rounds; no civilian needs that. The rifle and its stock magazine appear to fall under New York’s assault weapon and high-capacity magazine bans. Folks, these guns look aggressive and intimidating, but it’s really the magazines that are a major problem here. State governments and Congress could address that issue immediately. Semi-automatic rifles and handguns fire the rounds as fast as the shooter can pull the trigger, and a gun that holds five rounds can fire fewer shots in succession compared to a gun carrying a 30-round magazine. Congress clearly doesn’t want to ban guns; at least its GOP members don’t. But what about addressing the magazines? Why not set a maximum size of 10 rounds? Or five rounds? The restriction won’t put an end to gun violence and probably won’t stop a determined shooter, but the change would at least minimize carnage. This is where we’re at, and that’s the saddest part. As we saw this week, too many lawmakers are unconcerned with finding common-sense ways to regulate and restrict something that routinely causes tremendous public harm. It’s partly the fault of their constituents, who see any attempt to make guns less destructive as some great intrusion on their liberties. It’s also partly the fault of the gun industry, which has figured out it how to market the hell out of these products and sell them for a hefty price. So do I think that any positive changes to gun laws will come out of the Orlando tragedy? No. But I so desperately want to be wrong.

Of course not, Feldman says. But students and their families ask for all of the best amenities, he says, and if they don’t get them, they’ll select another school.

Many experts say that a discussion about the cost of higher education needs to take place in broader terms instead of through the lens of campaign slogans. For instance, if Americans decide that free college is more or less a constitutional right, should families who can afford to pay be asked to contribute, anyway? Should taxpayers subsidize children from well-off families at the same rate they do children from poorer families? “So the question in my view in an era of limited resources is do we want to put all of our resources into everyone equally, or do we want to marshal our resources for those who need it most?” says SUNY Brockport’s Macpherson. “That’s a philosophical debate that’s hard to have.” Secondly, universal free college would mean that considerably more of every tax dollar would have to be committed to higher education, and Macpherson isn’t convinced that the public is ready to pay what Europeans often pay in taxes. It’s likely that cuts would need to be made to other government programs, she says, or taxes would need to go up substantially for the greater good of the country. “I don’t know of very many people who are saying ‘I want to be taxed at a higher rate,’” she says. And some people are confused about free college as it relates to European countries, she says. Macpherson began her teaching career in England when college was free, but students there now contribute to their college education, she says. And the amount students pay has risen steadily. Another issue that is starting to receive more attention is whether a four-year college education is even appropriate for everyone. Many high school teachers lament that a significant portion of their students is neither capable of doing college-level work nor interested in going to college. Many students want to pursue trades and aren’t adequately guided in that direction, often because the programs have been cut, teachers say. William and Mary’s Robert Archibald agrees. “I think where we let students and families down is in the assumption that college is the next step for everybody,” he says. “We do a very poor job as a country of vocational training for the kind of high-skilled jobs we have. They’re the kind of technical manufacturing jobs that are still in this country.” There’s also a danger that free college would lead to lower standards so that college graduation rates show favorable outcomes, Archibald says. There’s a reason why only a small number of applicants are accepted to schools such as Harvard and Columbia, he says. (Francine Lynch is news editor Christine Carrie Fien’s sister.)

[ PROFILE ] BY LEAH STACY

A modest crowd has gathered under the open-air tent in the garden behind the New York Wine and Culinary Center on a balmy Friday evening in early June. Servers in starched uniforms offer cucumber cups from blackened slate slabs and pour glasses of chilled white wine for guests in linen dresses and pressed collared shirts. The NYWCC is hosting another installation of its pairing dinners, which bring together the culinary skills of Executive Chef Andrew Chambers and the products of local organizations. Black Button Distilling, Naked Dove Brewing, Leonard Oakes Winery, and several other similar

businesses have already participated. Tonight, it’s a pairing dinner with Fulkerson Winery, which is based in Dundee, on the west side of Seneca Lake. Steven Fulkerson, the winery’s general manager, grabs a microphone before every course to explain the wine and how it pairs with the dish, but there’s one voice that’s stayed largely quiet tonight. It’s the soft-spoken voice of 28-year-old Chambers, who splits his time during the dinner between plating in the kitchen and (briefly) appearing several times to greet the event’s guests and ask how the food tastes. Each time the center mounts a pairing dinner, Chambers pieces together a six-course menu to complement the organization’s product line, which is usually a beverage. It’s an incredible responsibility — and not one he takes lightly. “It’s really cool to build these relationships because there’s a lot of pride and work that goes into what people do in the area,” Chambers says. “I want to showcase their products in the best light.” Chambers is a champion for this sort of

thing. At the beginning of the year, he sits down with his NYWCC team and plans out what crops and specialty items he’ll need from partner farms and purveyors, of which he estimates there are 87 total. Many of the ingredients he uses in the kitchen come from within 60 miles of the center, and he aims for using roughly 90 percent New York State products overall. “The average American eats a meal that travels 1,400 miles or more before it reaches their plate — that’s not the case here,” he says. “We really try to show what New York State can do.” So how is it that a 28-year-old from Penn Yan leads the culinary efforts for one of the state’s biggest food and drink education centers? His background certainly helps. Chambers began working at an early age in his family’s vineyard, where they grew table fruit grapes like Concord Niagara and other native varieties. When he was in his early teens, his parents purchased a diner, and throughout high school, Chambers worked his way up: first

washing dishes, then making food (so he could avoid doing dishes), and then opening and closing the diner by the time he was old enough to drive. At Penn Yan Academy, he also completed a culinary career track. “I was really interested in everything about it,” he says. “That’s why I decided to leave the area and go to culinary school.” He attended the College of Culinary Arts — a nationally ranked culinary school — at Johnson and Wales University in Charlotte, North Carolina, worked at the Esperanza Mansion in Penn Yan during the summers, and finished both his culinary arts and baking degrees in two years. The New York Wine and Culinary Center recruited him in 2008 to be the in-house pastry chef, and just like he did at the family diner, Chambers began to work his way up the ranks. After spending four years as sous chef, he was promoted to executive chef in 2014, at age 26. Now he’s at the top of the NYWCC ladder with no plans to move. “I really believe in what we do here,” he said. “We have amazing partners and we work with inner city kids during the summer. We’re educating people and getting them excited about the region.” One of the events he’s most looking forward to is a brand new dinner series that will be held off-site on July 14 at Maplestone Farm in Stanley (between Canandaigua and Geneva). The entire dinner menu will be built from the farm’s produce. “I’m excited to do different dinners like that to show people where the actual farm is,” he says. “You get to meet the guy who’s out there early in the morning and late at night.” Chambers currently lives in Penn Yan with his wife, Heather (who works at Roots Cafe in Naples), and their 2-year-old daughter. When he gets a rare day off, he usually spends it doing things that resemble his day job: cooking, eating a nice dinner, exploring the region’s food and drink options. But that’s what Chambers loves, and he has high hopes for the future. In the next five years, the Finger Lakes “could be a resource hub for not only the state, but the country — maybe the world,” he says. “We have some of the most fertile soil here, we have amazing wineries and breweries, and people can come here and learn. It’s been a work in progress for 20 or 30 years, but now we’ve reached a tipping point where it’s starting to take hold.”

The band, which was founded in a dorm room by two guys, now has nine members, and when the big sound hits you, you’re going to fall hard. Ill Doots encapsulates the best of three worlds: the hip-hop flow of the group is remarkably mature and fits amazingly well over the funk and ever changing melodies and rhythms of the band behind.

Jon Lewis“Out To Lunch”Self-releasedjonlewis.bandcamp.com

Following hot on the heels of his most excellent record, “Panic Rock,” Rochester rocker Jon Lewis is back in with more thoughtful, guitar-infused introspection. Now, let me be the first one not to call Lewis a brainiac, but this clever cat’s sound is smart on the parade that is “Out To Lunch.” It’s a big, loping march toward lyrical redemption, all couched in thick, tonally aces guitar work. Weezer almost comes to mind when looking for a comparison, except for the fact that Mr. Lewis doesn’t hide behind the music’s irony or let it cover up his smirk and the tongue-in-cheek behind it. And with the music straddling experimentation and atmosphere, his voice is a study in sincerity and nonchalance. It’s just enough medicine for what ails ya: six rockin’ tunes with pervading melancholy and pop rock hooks that prevent things from being just about the dance. This is one beautiful lacquer cracker. — BY FRANK DE BLASE

Justin Roeland“Between The Lakes”Self-releasedroeland.bandcamp.com

Songwriter Justin Roeland’s music bridges the cracks between genres as if they were the proverbial lakes mentioned in the title of his new album. There is an overall beauty that runs throughout “Between The Lakes,” with the opening track thoughtfully assailing ears while sounding like The Byrds when Gramm Parsons briefly got his mitts on them. The atmospheric reverb and layered vocals lend themselves to a shared peace between Roeland and the listener, and between space and time. And somebody please tell me, is there something, anything, lonelier than piano notes plucked out of the air with the damper pedal pinned to the floor? Listen to the track “River Cities” and get back to me with your answer. The melancholy on Roeland’s previous outing, “Blind Spots,” has the disconnect of the two coasts — he started recording on the west coast before heading east to wrap it up. “Between the Lakes” was all right coast, adding some focus to its punch and poignancy. — BY FRANK DE BLASE

[ INTERVIEW] BY FRANK DE BLASE

It’s not that The Majestics don’t care; it’s just that stardom and the magnetic allure of its trappings don’t matter anymore. The legendary Rochester reggae band no longer chases the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. The band abides. And after a lengthy hiatus, The Majestics are back, Jack. Ron Stackman (guitar and vocals), Jim Schwarz (bass), Lou LaVilla (drums), Kevin Hart (lead guitar), and Brother James (percussion) are firing up the machine with a four-piece horn section and hitting the Jazz Festival stage for their re-debut. It’s gonna be majestic. It all started for The Majestics once upon a time in the 1980’s, after the demise of Bahama Mama. “We started as a trio,” Stackman says, “then added guitarist Rudy Valentino and percussionist Brother James from Trinidad. We toured with every reggae act you can think of — especially Burning Spear, Peter Tosh, and so on.

We were never able to get any serious kind of record deal, but we did some nice stuff.” There are a million reasons behind the fame the band deserved — and the fame it actually got. For Stackman, it’s easy: they were ahead of their time. “I think what we were doing wasn’t in tune with the times yet,” he says. “We were taking reggae and making it rocky. At that time people were just figuring out about reggae, and they weren’t ready to hear it rocked out the way we did it.” Some purists scoffed. “But the Jamaicans loved it,” Stackman says. “The hippies were a little confused — as they tend to be. We didn’t wear the matching red, gold, and green outfits and shout ‘yoy, yoy.’ We always put our own thing on it.” And the band wasn’t totally off the mark, according to LaVilla. Other rock bands were embracing reggae, and vice versa. “This was around the time of bands like UB40 and The Police,” he says. But when the push became increasingly uphill, The Majestics hung it up. “We hung it up after the last Burning Spear tour, 1982-1983,” Stackman says. “We thought something might happen there. We put on a lot of miles and worked real hard, and still came back broke.” The break-up didn’t last all that long with the birth of the band Big Roots about a year later. And whereas The Majestics was a small

band, Big Roots was fortified with 10 members, including a powerful horn section. “It was full-blown,” Stackman says. “We were quite popular regionally, but it ran its course and we got tired of it.” The members of The Majestics got together sporadically over the years before reforming for good about a year ago. They’re older, wiser, and as excited for their own brand of reggae as ever, going back to the heyday in the early 1970’s when a friend serendipitously slipped Stackman a Wailers album. He dug it. “It was either ‘Burnin’’ or ‘Catch a Fire,’” says Schwarz who dug the sound as well. “We had been playing in a Top 40 band, but we were playing Mothers of Invention stuff too.” “At the time I was living on a farm, raising goats,” Stackman says. “And I was drawn to the natural kind of Rasta thing they had going. But when we tried to play it, we couldn’t, and that’s what really got us interested.” The Majestics toured extensively up and down the East Coast, the hard way: no GPS, no Verizon on the horizon. “And you’re diving around in a van with half a clue where you’re going, with no money and a credit card … back during the gas crisis, trying to buy gas every other day; trying to stay on the road,” Stackman says. “We went through all that stuff together, man. We knew each other better than our wives knew us.” The Majestics even went down to Jamaica and made a record with Lee “Scratch” Perry, who found the band via a live video he’d been shown. This also included a string of dates opening for The Clash in New York City. Now with the future a blank canvas before them, The Majestics have no plans or aspirations, just great reggae music. The band just put out a limited release EP with one song remixed by Dr. Dread, who has worked with the likes of Bunny Wailer and Gregory Isaacs. It’s a big deal actually, but it doesn’t carry the guarantee of limelight. Stackman waxes nonchalant. “No, we’re not going to make it,” he says. “We won’t be touring Europe soon. But we have something to offer that’s totally unique: the fact that we’ve been playing for 40 years. We’re old enough that it’s just about the music again. It’s not about anything else. It’s not about making it palatable for the masses. It’s not about egos. It’s not about any of that. It’s just about the music like it was when we started.” They’ve finally conquered that illusive one drop. “Well … I don’t know that we’ve conquered it yet,” Stackman says. “We don’t sound like Jamaicans when we play. We were brought up on rock ‘n’ roll.”

[ REVIEW ] BY REBECCA RAFFERTY

A century ago, the United States created the National Park Service to preserve some of the continent’s most breathtaking wild spaces. Over time, the wilderness has also become a tourist playground. In celebration of this anniversary, the George Eastman Museum is hosting “Photography and America’s National Parks,” an exhibition of images and materials that explore the role photography played in the development of the NPS, in the country’s westward expansion, and in shaping our understanding of the nation’s natural spaces. Drawn primarily from the Eastman Museum collection, hundreds of images, motion pictures, and other materials, spanning from the 1860’s to the present, represent more than 20 National Parks, with a mostly Midwest and West Coast focus. “There were three basic concepts that came up,” says Associate Curator Jamie Allen. “The first is that as we are exploring the land in the 1860’s and 1870’s, it is photography that establishes the vantage point that we

want to stand at and photograph over and over and over again. Another is how tourism shaped how we view these spaces, and how photography interacts with them. And the third is how art and the National Parks meet, and how photographers call upon this lineage and photograph how we have affected these natural, wild spaces.” The first room of the Main Galleries includes a sizeable section on Yosemite, which was set aside as publicly held land in 1864 (Yellowstone, later, would become the first official national park). Of particular note are iconic images of the land’s prized, geological “cathedrals” by Carleton Watkins, Eadweard Muybridge, Ansel Adams, and Alvin Langdon Coburn, who each helped draw public’s imagination and interest to the West. “As the Civil War is going on in the East, there is land exploration happening in the West,” Allen says. Organizations such as the California Geological Survey were trying to figure out what the United States had, in terms of land, and what was unique to that area. Though photographic equipment was transportable at the time, Allen paints an intriguing vision of hazard: behind the scenes of the sweeping grandeur immortalized in Watkins’ work, for example, are his rented mules bearing boxes of fragile collodion gear and materials. “They’re carrying around glass plate negatives for each of the pictures that are the same size as the final photograph,” Allen says.

Past preservation and precarious future

Art

Coinciding with the familiar vistas, the exhibition presents an in-depth look at the development of some of the first examples of “going viral.” The initial wave of photographers snapped up the most wondrous perspectives, selling those images to publishers, and others followed, often putting their own spin on the same shot. Some of these images became mass-produced in postcards and tiny collectible snapshots. Later came the tourists, who would seek out and photograph those same natural monuments. “You still see people on Instagram today taking the exact same images,” Allen says. The second room further sharpens the show’s focus on exploration, including books produced for the United States Geological Survey, which were sent to Congress to educate and appeal for more funding. Materials from significant “rephotography” projects, including the Rephotographic Survey Project, provide a sense of how the parks have changed over time. The appearance of the automobile dramatically changed the landscape with paved roadways and the appearance of hotels, and we also see evidence of the changes in how people are permitted to interact with the protected spaces — no more standing upon geysers. People have always made their homes in these spaces, but throughout the show, indigenous inhabitants are noticeably missing from any view except for their commercial value in tourist reel. Michael Matthew Woodlee’s contemporary images peer into the lives of current residents of Yosemite, who work as rangers or postmasters — there are even schools for the children who live there — as well as trail walkers who traverse the entirety of Yosemite Valley. A particularly singular image in the contemporary section is David Benjamin Sherry’s image of undulating dunes in Death Valley. The work is toned in hot, acidic pinks and reds, and projects a dually romantic and lonely mood. In addition to photographing, “he sits and reads poetry and writes in his journal,” Allen says. “When he returns to the darkroom, he takes those feelings and thoughts and transmits them into color.” The final room in the show deals with land conservation, providing a good space for the public to reflect on the past and consider the future of these priceless places. The exhibit includes four large photo murals of park vistas, providing an opportunity for visitors to take a photograph “at the parks.” If you post a selfie in front of the murals on social media, use the tag #GEMparks. A family guide with activities for children is also offered, and can be exchanged for a prize when it’s completed.

“Weiner”(R), JOSH KRIEGMAN AND ELYSE STEINBERG

OPENS FRIDAY, JUNE 24, AT THE LITTLE

THEATRE

[ REVIEW ] BY ADAM LUBITOW

Filmmakers Josh Kriegman and Elyse Steinberg were hired in 2013 to document disgraced former US Representative Anthony Weiner’s campaign for mayor of New York City. Though Weiner’s seven-term congressional career had been brought to an abrupt end in 2011 — when he tweeted a photo of his boxer brief-covered bulge out into the world, and kicked off a sexting scandal that extinguished his rising star — this mayoral campaign was to be his comeback.

That’s not exactly how things panned out. What’s remarkable is how successful the campaign is at its beginnings. Weiner leads the polls, and the citizens of New York actively seem to want to forgive him. Then a new round of explicit selfies and texts come to light after Weiner had so adamantly insisted he’d put all that behind him, and everything goes south. Kriegman and Steinberg’s are there to capture the implosion from within, and the new documentary, “Weiner,” is the fascinating result. Opening with a montage of highlights from Weiner’s time in the House of Representatives, where his fiery rhetoric made him something of a hero to progressives at a time when so many Democrats lacked the courage to stand up for their convictions. There’s a twinge of sadness over what might have been. Weiner may very well

have been able to ac-complish some good things in his career, which makes the anger from voters (to say nothing of his own staff mem-bers) all the more palpable once the other shoe drops. The hotheaded, combative nature that won him so many fans comes back to bite him in the ass. Weiner’s

scrappy, fighting ways make it impossible for him to accept defeat, and he refuses to drop out even after it’s become abundantly clear that there’s no coming back from this. The lengthy mayoral campaign leaves plenty of time for the media and New York voters to ask why he deserves another chance after deceiving the public, earning back their grudging respect, only to end up doing it all over again. It’s mesmerizing to see the inner-workings of a campaign in crisis. Given unprecedented access, Kriegman (the congressman’s former chief of staff) and Steinberg witness it all. The second wave of scandals involved a young woman named Sydney Leathers, who uses the attention to secure her own 15 minutes of fame. By the time Leathers is chasing Weiner through a McDonald’s, it seems more likely that you’re watching satirical fiction than a chronicle of real-life incidents. There’s certainly a train wreck aspect to the film as we watch everything fall apart. It’s compelling in a way that you can’t tear yourself away from. We all love a scandal; the more salacious the details, the better. But the directors manage to paint Weiner as a complicated individual, who can’t seem to help himself, and his plight is both funny and heart-wrenching at the same time. His conviction is almost admirable until the moments when we see firsthand the toll it takes on his home life. His wife, Huma Abedin, can’t avoid being sucked into the media frenzy that ensues. The film’s most sympathetic figure, it’s impossible not to feel for her as she valiantly attempts to salvage both her dignity and her own political

aspirations (Abedin is currently a top advisor for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign), all while facing scrutiny from the media as well as the public over her decision to stand by her man. That throughline is also the source of the film’s most uncomfortable moments. At home, the tension between the couple is palpable, but for her part, Abedin remains tight-lipped around the filmmakers’ cameras. She’s content to let silent glares speak for her, and verbal insight she gives into her state of mind comes when she’s asked by Kriegman how she’s feeling, responding that “it’s like having a nightmare,” before smiling and walking out of the room. Weiner is clearly a rampant narcissist: his ambi-tion seems only matched by his arrogance. That crav-ing for attention is a trait he seems to share with the majority of politicians. Late in the film, Kriegman asks Weiner, “Why are you letting us film this?” Weiner himself doesn’t seem to have an answer; the best he can offer is a noncommittal shrug. Still, in the age of Trump — when it appears we have a candidate whose behavior can’t grow odious enough to dissuade his base from voting for him — Weiner’s failings come across as almost quaint by comparison. Now, the film feels even more like it’s capturing the moment just before politics descended over the edge completely. With a potent cocktail of politics, ego, and media sensationalism, “Weiner” offers a spellbinding (and often horrifying) snapshot of where we are now.

Some houses in the vast and varied historic

Maplewood district stand out as showcase

homes; the original builder’s intent as focused

on making a grand statement as on creating

a family home. The grand old Queen Anne at

105 Birr Street is one such home, standing

proud on its corner after all of these years as a

testament to late 1800s style and design.

Built in 1885, and quite possibly one of the first

houses to arise in this section of Maplewood,

105 Birr St. retains much of its original exterior

grandeur. With its brightly-colored facade, multi-

peaked roof, and intricate handcrafted molding

and millwork, the home pops with personality.

However, the crown jewel is the wrap-around

front porch. Perfect for entertaining, this

expansive space is surrounded by well-

preserved brickwork that doesn’t appear to

have been painted or whitewashed, and has

a set of finely carved columns leading up to

handsome cornices at intervals around the

curving perimeter. It’s easy to imagine hosting

guests here on warm summer nights.

The front entrance area was also clearly

designed to impress and succeeds in that

goal to this day. Upon entering the house,

dark chestnut wood paneling and trim frame

a dramatic grand staircase directly to your

right. A massive window on the landing allows

plenty of light to pour in, highlighting the

intricate woodwork.

Parquet floors extend through original pocket

doors into the large main living area. Three

large bay windows take up one full wall, while

an elaborate mantle frames the fireplace

on another wall. A dining area is accessible

through another set of pocket doors. In addition,

a smaller parlor is available at the front of the

house. Also on the first floor is a full bathroom

that needs some TLC.

In addition to the beautifully conserved,

spacious common rooms, the kitchen offers

plenty of square footage and opportunity. A full

butler’s pantry leads from the dining room to

the kitchen. Hardwood cabinets in this space

offer plenty of storage options. The kitchen

itself is large, airy, and spacious, offering

tantalizing possibilities to create the kitchen of

one’s dreams.

Together, the first floor rooms have a flow and

continuous design that is hard to find in later

homes. It’s easy to see the home’s original

grandeur and imagine how the unique design

of the past can be brought to life again.

The second floor features four well-

proportioned bedrooms and a second

full bathroom. All bedrooms have original

hardwood floors and molding. The third floor

is finished as well and could provide additional

living and/or storage space.

105 Birr St. offers approximately 2,037 square

feet of living space and is listed at $74,900.

Tours can be arranged by contacting Sharon

Quataert Realty at 585-900-1111.

[ NEWS OF THE WEIRD ] BY CHUCK SHEPHERD

Can’t Possibly Be TrueA watchdog agency monitoring charities revealed in May its choice for “worst” among those “helping” U.S. veterans: The National Vietnam Veterans Foundation raised more than $29 million from 2010 to 2014 — but wound up donating about 2 cents of every dollar toward actual help. The other 98 cents went to administration and fund-raising. (Similarly troubling, according to the watchdog, is that the CEO of NVVF is a staff attorney at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.)

More Adventures of the Easily Offended(1) A March video featured a black San Francisco State University woman angrily confronting a white student, accusing him of “cultural appropriation” because he was wearing his hair in dreadlocks. (2) A March fitness club ad pitch in Sawley, England, picturing an extraterrestrial with the caption, “And when they arrive, they’ll take the fat ones first,” was denounced by an anti-bul-lying organization as “offensive.” (3) A May bus-stop ad for a San Francisco money lender (“10 percent down. Because you’re too smart to rent”) was derided for “ooz(ing) self-congratulatory privilege.”
