Take a lesson from Charleston

The Charleston Sym-phony Orchestra has rebounded from its own shut-down in 2010. Can the SSO do the same in Syracuse?

Marjory Wilkins passed away Friday April 1 in her home. She was 81. The Syracuse com-munity lost an artist and mentor who captured the true essence of African-American Syracuse through her series of photographs. Marjory was in the middle of a renaissance, her work being recognized by new audiences as people reconnected with their 15th Ward roots which she captured in numerous photographs.

Recent exhibitions of her photographs include “A Tender Record, Marjory Wilkins: Early Black & White Photographs,” on display at ArtRage Gallery in May 2010. In addition, in March 2011 Syracuse Stage presented a collec-tion of Marjory’s work in conjunction with the presentation of August Wilson’s “Radio Golf,” a story which, like Majory’s photographs, pro-vided a local cultural record and captured the African-American life that existed in vibrant

African-American communities throughout America before Urban Renewal turned them into memories.

She was also a contributing photographer for Urban CNY. Marjory Wilkins will be missed, but her work leaves us photographic memories, a tender record of a life well-lived.

Will the absence of the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra mean an influx of potential new members to the Onondaga Civic Symphony Orchestra?

Not likely, says OCSO Musical Director Erik Kibelsbeck.

“We’re very sorry to see this happening with the SSO,” Kibelsbeck said last week. “We’ll cer-tainly continue doing what we do, and I don’t expect this will change what we do at all.”

The OCSO, unlike the SSO, is a pay-to-play group for local musicians of various skill levels. The group meets to rehearse on Monday nights and holds an average of four performances each year.

Musicians pay dues to play, and there’s no audition process to join.

“It’s a completely different league,” Kibels-beck said.

“That being said, it’s a wonderful orchestra,”

he added. “They come every Monday night in spite of whatever else may be going on in their lives.”

The OCSO’s annual operating budget? “Well under $10,000,” Kibelsbeck said.

“We’re operating on a complete shoestring.”Kibelsbeck is the only paid member of the

OSCO, although soloists are paid a “small, small amount,” he said.

Admission to OCSO events are typically a suggested donation.

“It’s a wonderful thing, but compared to the SSO we’re a club,” explained Kibelsbeck.

Get your classical music fix at OCSO’s next performance at 3 p.m. Sunday May 15 at Atonement Lutheran Church in Syracuse. Visit home.roadrunner.com/~ocso for more information and the rehearsal schedule.

If you’re interested in joining, contact the OCSO to sit in on an upcoming rehearsal.

“We have enough flutes,” Kibelsbeck said. “We’d love to have more cellos, violas and basses at the moment.”

What does SSO’s shut-down mean for the other symphony in town?

We asked readers: How long will you wait to pull your bicycle out of storage, and where will you take your first ride?

Here’s what you had to say:

As a non-cyclist, I’m answering this on behalf of my partner, who is an avid cyclist. He broke out his bike from the garage several weeks ago. Snow or not, he couldn’t wait any longer.”

- Rachel Somerstein, Syracuse/New York City

My bike’s been out for a cou-ple of weeks and I’ve ridden to school several days with my 8-year-old son. The flurries we encountered on a recent morn-ing weren’t enough to keep us off the road!”

- Andy Mager, Syracuse

I’ve already started riding, my com-mute takes the same amount of time as it does by car!”

- Damian Vallelonga, Syracuse

I moved my bike closer to the door when the temperature hit 50. Started to clean it up, but then heard the weather fore-cast and took the tarp off my snow blower. My first ride will be in Onondaga Park when the sun finally appears and seems to be serious about staying.”

- Herm Card, Syracuse

I already used my bike! I had to go down to the Cazenovia Fire Department to interview a senior member there. It wasn’t far enough to justify using my car, and the sun was shining, so I broke out my cruiser and rode on down to the depart-ment. Wish I didn’t have to put it back in the garage when I woke up today.”

- Pierce Smith, editor, Cazenovia Republican

Bike has been out and about all winter. However, I am looking forward to switching over to the road bike. First ride will prob-ably be up the hill to school or downtown to check out the creek walk.”

- Meghan Holtan, Syracuse

Here is next week’s question: Should the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra be allowed to keep donations made dur-ing the “Save the Music” fundraising campaign, now that the SSO has shut down?

“What you’re saying” is intended to spark dialoge and share perspectives among community members.

Each week we will ask you for your opinion on a topic, and a selection of re-sponses will be included in the following week’s edition of the paper.

To receive the weekly “What you’re saying” question in your inbox, e-mail [email protected]. The question will also be posted at facebook.com/thee-aglecny.com. Submit your feedback via e-mail or on our Facebook wall. Please limit responses to two or three sentences and include your name. The Eagle’s letters policy applies.

Our view

Is there a repairman for the broken news?I don’t understand how

“breaking news” can be interpreted these days, as the people collecting and dissemi-nating information as “news” corrupt the very institution they created. News has been replaced by opinions consid-ered newsworthy, creating that “gotcha” mo-ment when an institution or an individual crumbles before our very eyes.

The news is broken and the term “break-ing news” no longer lives up to billing of being new and immediate.

Reporters stand pleading with emotion about a condition or situation and we the people are supposed to follow blindly. This push-the-story behavior was quite appar-ent during the recent run-up to the military situation in Libya. Information flowing from battles where reporter after reporter

cried, “Something must be done! Something must be done! There will be a mas-sacre if the outside world doesn’t intervene.”

Once President Obama decided to establish and join a coalition, the knives came

out. The journalists who were in tears over the whipping Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi’s army was unleashing on the protesters sud-denly began to question the American gov-ernment action. Uh, wasn’t that you (insert name) on cable news saying we had to act?

“The news” is broken. If you want to know for sure, you can confirm your suspicions by watching same footage run over and over and over again, like episodes of “The Nanny” on Nickelodeon’s Nick-at-Night lineup.

This breaking news intrusion does not

only occur in the national news, it’s infected what remains of our local news gathering. Old weather news airs when it’s snowing like heck outside. Or lazy “breaking news” when your own knowledge of the story beats anything you’ve read in print or saw on television.

The entire landscape for what we once recognized as news has changed, for exam-ple, radio, the pioneer in bringing informa-tion to the masses, has been taken over by angry people drinking far too much tea.

When I see the “breaking news” icon flashing on the television screen, I think out loud, “hmm, looks like my news is broken again!”

Rather than try to pick apart how things went wrong for the Syracuse Symphony Or-chestra, we would like to share with you the story of the Charleston Symphony Orchestra in South Carolina.

According to thepostandcourier.com, the CSO had an especially tough year in 2010. After years of cost-cutting and desperate fundraising, the CSO, like the SSO, was burdened with millions of dollars of debt. The CSO cut its season short last March and dismissed several full-time musicians as a result of its financial distress.

The musicians fired back by filing suit against the CSO, alleging the shut-down was illegal, but dropped the suit in exchange for the immediate resignation of then-president and board bargaining committee chair.

Then, on top of its legal and labor troubles, the CSO’s longtime musical direc-tor died unexpectedly, another blow to the community.

Yet on March 19, the CSO played to a full crowd, and through new, innovative fundraising initiatives established by a new executive director and fresh board members, the orchestra aims to fund its 2011-12 season entirely in advance.

When the CSO shut down temporarily last year, public forums were held by local arts leaders to gather input directly from the community on how the organization should proceed. As a result, programming for the upcoming season will include collaboration with the local college and more variety in concerts.

Of course, it’s too soon to tell if the CSO has the magic formula, even for its own specific set of circumstances. But let us be reminded that the Syracuse Symphony Or-chestra is far from alone in its struggle.

Some orchestras in similar states of limbo have failed to reenergize. The Honolulu Symphony Orchestra, for example, has gone bankrupt and will be liquidated after 110 years.

Our community has voiced its disap-proval of the SSO’s suspension of operations -- they know what we don’t want. Why not tell them what we do want? What would it take to get you to an SSO performance?

Maybe they’re not asking for our opin-ions, yet, but when has that stopped us from offering them up?

We’re not alone in symphony struggle

Concertmaster’s last hurrahSyracuse Symphony Or-

chestra Concertmaster An-drew Zaplatynsky played his last concert with the orchestra Saturday, April 2, at Syracuse University’s Setnor Audito-rium.

After 30 years with the SSO, the first-chair violinist is retiring. Before the SSO hired him in 1981, Zaplatynsky was assistant concert-master for the Detroit Symphony and associate concertmaster at the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.

By happenstance, his retirement coincided with the suspension of the SSO’s golden an-niversary season.

After performing Saturday’s program of music by Rossini, Tchaikovsky and Beethoven conducted by Musical Director Dan Hege, the orchestra’s five dozen musicians and one dozen staffers were officially laid off Sunday.

The SSO Board of Directors voted March 29 to suspend its 50th anniversary season after desperate fund-raising efforts left the orchestra more than $1 million short of its goal. Twenty concerts were canceled.

Bach concerto SundayDespite the SSO’s suspension, however, Za-

platynsky will continue to make music. He’ll solo in a performance of Bach’s Violin Concerto No. 2 in E Major at 7 p.m. Sunday, April 10, at the De-Witt Community Church, 3600 Erie Blvd. East,

where he is a congregant.Guest conductor Rafaelle

Ponti will lead members of the SSO in the Bach concerto written circa 1720 and in John Rutter’s “Requiem,” featuring the DCC Chancel Choir.

Tickets cost $10; 445-0331; dewittchurch.org.

“We’ve assembled some of the area’s finest talent for a program of indescribable beauty,” said Mark Sommers, DCC’s senior minister. “This concert speaks to the transformative power of music and to the vital role it plays it our community.”

Besides being an articulate musician capable of turning written notes into tangible emotion, Zaplatynsky is also an avid and articulate writer and a self-described “news junkie.”

His interests include social and economic policy, education, religion, the arts and ice cream.

“I like to think that I am sensitive to the human condition,” he said, “but I’m skepti-cal of the schemes that politicians propose to improve our lives.”

Symphony budget strugglesOn his LinkedIn blog, “The compassionate

skeptic,” he reflected on the financial travails of contemporary American symphony or-chestras.

“I have played in five major orchestras

over the span of a 40-year career,” Zaplatynsky wrote, “and I have never seen such a severe budget crisis all across the board for what has always been a fragile institution. Symphony budgets consist of three legs; ticket sales (cov-ering no more than 40 percent of the budget), fund-raising and some government support (usually state or local). The current economic climate has seriously damaged all three sources of revenue.”

Gingold’s words of wisdomThe violinist was especially saddened by the

Cleveland Orchestra’s budget struggle last year. “That orchestra is one of the truly legendary symphonic ensembles and this is a story that I thought I would never see,” Zaplatynsky wrote. “One of the greatest influences my develop-ment, both as a musician and a human being, was Josef Gingold, longtime concertmaster of the Cleveland Orchestra.

“It was my privilege to study with Josef Gingold, a remarkable artist/teacher at Indi-ana University. Gingold was not only a great teacher, he was a truly wise human being…

“One time he asked me, ‘Andy, do you know who was the greatest artist that I ever saw?’ I assumed that it would be someone like Jascha Heifetz or Fritz Kreisler. I was wrong. He said, ‘Joe Louis, the boxer.’ I was stunned. Prof. Gingold added, ‘He never made an unneces-sary move.’

SURGEON GENERAL’S WARNING CIGARETTE SMOKE CONTAINS CARBON MONOXIDE

By Ami [email protected]

By design, only one of the nine projects pre-sented at the inaugural Salt City DISHES dinner in January was awarded the $1,000 mini-grant that night.

But the remaining eight non-winners weren’t exactly left to wallow over what could have been – at least five of those projects are being brought to life anyway.

Thumbs UPstate Improv FestivalFor many of the projects, the idea came first

but DISHES supplied the motivation.“I think what Salt City DISHES did for us was

give an impetus to say, ‘well let’s just get this done, let’s really put together a plan and do it,’” said Mike Intaglietta, one of the co-organizers of this weekend’s Thumbs UPstate Improv Festival.

“We’re going to do this whether or not we win the grant, so let’s get a plan together and set a date,” Intaglietta remembers. He co-organized the proposal and eventual festival with Ken Keech, Vanessa Rose and Joe Blum.

When at the end of the night the improv idea hadn’t secured the DISHES funding, the group still had a hard plan for an event, so they went for it.

This weekend, their hard work will pay off when 15 different improv troupes converge at the St. Clare Theater on the North Side for two days of improv games and workshops, perfor-mances and community-building.

Troupes are traveling from Albany, Bing-hamton, Buffalo, Geneseo and Rochester, to join Syracuse-based troupes for the event, Intaglietta said.

Without the DISHES funding, the organiz-ers’ motto became, “if not free, then cheap,” Intaglietta said. The event was primarily funded through donations.

The festival runs from 5:30 p.m. Friday April 8 to midnight Saturday April 9 at the St. Clare Theater, 1119 N. Townsend St. Doors open to

the public for shows at 6:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

Most workshops are only for registered troupes, but for the novice interested in giving improv comedy a shot, Ken Keech will lead a “Intro to Improv” workshop from 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday.

Visit thumbsupstate.com for more informa-tion.

Walking on WaterLike the Thumbs UPstate organizers, Na-

thaniel Sullivan and Jay Muhlin already had a project in mind when the DISHES opportunity was announced.

The SU graduate students developed their idea for “Walking on Water” for an Art and Civic Dialogue course, led by local artist Carrie Mae Weems and Community Folk Art Center curator David Ross.

Part of the class includes participating in an exhibit at the CFAC, which Sullivan and Muhlin are taking outside the gallery walls on onto Water Street for a guided audio tour.

“Participants will be lent an iPod and a map of the walk, with indications of where to cue audio tracks,” said Sullivan.

The tracks will include personal accounts, subject histories and speculation of the speakers, to venture beyond the academic histories of the neighborhoods and offer “tourists” more narra-tive stories of the area, he said.

To add new material to the initial stories, participants will be encouraged to document their own experiences. And walkers with smart phones can take the tour using the QR codes posted throughout the tour, rather than borrow-ing an iPod from the CFAC.

“Being a pedestrian in a city gives you a dis-tinct perspective of who you are in relation to where you live -- from the types of interactions that it affords and the attendant encounters with difference, to the time it allows you to contem-plate the urban landscape,” Sullivan said.

“You Are Here: An Intersection of Art and Civic Dialogue” runs at the Community Folk Art Center from April 8 to 22. Find out more the exhibit at communityfolkartcenter.org.

This week marks the launch of two great ideas that didn’t win DISHES funding, but there are even more in the works:Syracuse Skillshare

Last summer, Syracuse Skillshare debuted with a full day of workshops open to the commu-nity, offering lessons on a variety of topics

from composting to tuning up a bicycle.Co-organizer Rich Vallejo said the small

planning committee of about six people knew they wanted to make the event annual, if not more frequent, even before the first skillshare took place.

“We would talk about, ‘when should we start planning the next one?’ and then the DISHES event came up and it sort of kicked things into gear,” Vallejo said. Not winning the mini-grant hasn’t set them back, either.

The second annual Skillshare event is in the planning stages for this summer, though the exact date won’t be set until a venue is arranged. In the meantime, organizers are hoping to hear from people with skills to share, Vallejo said.

“We didn’t have a lot of specifically ‘art’ workshops last year, so we definitely want more of that,” he added.

Have a specific talent or bit of knowledge to share?

“It’s never too soon to contact us,” Vallejo said.

Send an email to [email protected] to get involved, or visit the group on Facebook.

Syracuse Community Cookbook SeriesDaniel Aguilera’s multi-faceted cookbook

series proposal touched a lot of bases, but one of the most prevalent was retaining family and ethnic traditions tied to food.

When Aguilera presented his idea to the DISHES crowd, he told the story of his own grandfather, who owned and operated a taco cart in Mexico for 30 years.

“It’s something I feel can be sort of a means of reintroducing healthy eating habits within family unit and also creating a closer relation between generations,” Aguilera said.

The Visual and Performing Arts graduate student will put his Syracuse Community Cook-book Series project into action this summer through the SU Photography and Literacy proj-ect, working with Syracuse high school students to document their families’ heritage meals.

Storefront for SyracuseThe Front, a student-run initiative of the SU

School of Architecture, has been geared toward revitalizing downtown Syracuse through small efforts since 2008.

But things got serious last fall, when the group reorganized and laid out plans for Store-front for Syracuse, a project that would reha-bilitate an already vacant commercial storefront to make it usable for exhibits, workshops and other projects.

Beyond the possibility of being chosen for the minigrant, The Front presented the Storefront for Syracuse proposal at DISHES to raise aware-ness of their goal, said Nilus Klingel, co-director of The Front.

“We had quite a bit of animated discussion both at the dinner and afterwards,” Klingel said. “Our contacts have doubled, with many residents we’ve never met signing up to volunteer on our future projects,” as a result of the DISHES presentation.

The Front has been busy over the last year, adding five projects to its portfolio, including the pop-up art gallery storefront for the 40 Be-low Public Arts Task Force, a PARK(ing) Day park and a larger “flash park,” the bright green “coming soon” billboard on the 300 block of South Warren Street and now the Storefront for Syracuse project at the State Tower Building.

Keep up to date with their projects at orgs.syr.edu/aias or stop by the storefront project at 217 E. Genesee St. to watch the progress.

The next Salt City DISHES dinner will be held Sunday May 1 at the St. Clare Theater. Find out where to buy tickets in advance (the event sold out last time, so get ‘em early), at saltcitydishes.blogspot.com.

A presentation will bring DISHES diners up to speed on the progress of Tonja Torgerson and Joel Weissman’s art-as-activism ceramic instal-lation project, dubbed SUBPAR, which won the first DISHES minigrant.

Hard times come again“Another unforgettable moment came when

he shared with me the hardships of the Great Depression. He spoke of his good fortune of getting a steady job in a New York theater pit orchestra. At times, he would call in sick so that an unemployed colleague would get a call to sub-stitute and make a few dollars. The stories were gripping enough, but what he said afterwards

simply floored me…‘Andy, remember the world does not owe you a living.’”

Gingold’s words of wisdom now echo in the minds of the 60-plus unemployed musicians of the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra.

While Zaplatynsky shares his colleagues’ dis-appointment with the SSO suspension, after three decades with the orchestra, he’s ready to retire.

“Thirty years is a long run,” he said. “I was blessed!”

By Russ Tarby

With a baker’s dozen re-turning players, a new no-nonsense manager and several proven sluggers, the Syracuse Chiefs appear primed to make a run at the 2011 International League playoffs.

The last time Syracuse made the IL playoffs was in 1998. The Chiefs last won their division in 1989, and last won the Governor’s Cup champion-ship in 1976.

The Chiefs are now in their third year as the top affiliate of the Washington Nationals.

New manager Randy Knorr, who played with the Chiefs in the early-1990s before becom-ing a journeyman major-league catcher, expects pitching to be the Chiefs’ strong suit.

Hurlers with previous Tri-ple-A service here include right-handers Collin Balester, Adam Carr, Yunesky Maya, J.D. Martin, Garrett Mock, Craig Stammen and Josh Wilkie along with lefties Ross Detwiler and Matt Chico.

Righty Cole Kimball and lefty Tom Milone are up from Double-A Harrisburg, and southpaw Lee Hyde is here from the IL’s Gwinnett Braves.

Catcher Jesus Flores missed all of last season with an arm injury, but Knorr hopes Flores can flourish in Triple-A after hitting .364 in Double-A in 2009. Back-up catcher Carlos Maldonado played for Syra-cuse last year, while third-stringer Jhonatan Solano played here two years ago.

A newcomer, left-handed power-hitter Michael Aubrey, will DH and play some first base. Last year he knocked out 22 home runs, two triples and 25 doubles for the IL’s Norfolk Tides.

Chiefs infielders include 21-year-old first baseman Chris Marrero, who hit 18 homers for Harrisburg last year. Brian Bixler and Seth Bynum – who both played well here last year – will play the middle positions with Chris McConnell, and Alex Valdez will play third. Last season, McConnell and Valdez sweated it out in the Double-A Texas League.

Returning outfielders include speedsters Roger Bernadina and Boomer Whiting as well as Corey Brown who played in the Pacific Coast League in 2010 and Jeff Frazier, who hit 25 home runs for the Toledo Mudhens.

The Chiefs open the season at 3:05 p.m. April 7 in the Queen City against NY Mets’ farmhands the Buffalo Bisons.

The hometown nine start swinging their bats at Alliance Bank Stadium at 2 p.m. Wednesday, April 13, against the Pawtucket Red Sox. The series continues at 2 p.m. Thursday, April 14, 7 p.m. Friday, April 15, and at 2 p.m. Saturday, April 16.

Alliance Bank Stadium is on the North Side, just

east of the Regional Market, at Tex Simone Drive (First North Street). Field-level ticket prices range from $9 to $20, while upper-deck seats cost $8, and $4 for kids and seniors.

Chiefs management has added a “Home Plate Club” in the first four rows behind home plate which will be serviced by a wait staff. Those 192 seats cost $20 each. The stadium parking fee has increased to $5 per vehicle; 474-7833; syracusechiefs.com.

Hope springs eternalChiefs return to Alliance Bank Stadium Wednesday April 13

New Chiefs’ hitters Jeff Frazier (above) and Michael Aubrey (below) hit 25 and 22 home runs, respectively, against In-ternational League pitchers last season.

Corcoran lacrosse off to 2-1 start with wins over Central Square, BinghamtonBy Phil Blackwell

[email protected]

For its first pivotal moment of the 2011 sea-son, the Corcoran boys lacrosse team got another chance to topple the area’s reigning dynasty.

But when that moment arrived last Friday night, the Cougars fell hard as West Genesee dominated in all phases of the game and beat Corcoran 17-2.

The Cougars beat West Genesee during the 2010 regular season – only to fall to the Wildcats 8-3 in the sectional Class A finals, which was WG’s ninth consecutive sectional title.

It looked like Corcoran was ready to challenge the Wildcats again as it began the season with back-to-back lopsided wins against Section IV foes, starting with an 18-4 romp over Union-Endicott on March 26.

Four different players had hat tricks as Dillon Brown and Dylan Smith both finished with four

goals. Cree Cathers backed up his three goals with three assists as Anthony Ferlenda got three goals and one assist. Ryan Cook scored twice and added three assists as Justin Monaghan earned a goal and two assists and Mike Collier also converted.

Then Derek Eccles checked in for Wednes-day’s game against Binghamton, and the Cougars’ production improved in an 19-5 victory over the Patriots.

As it built a 15-4 lead through three periods, Corcoran saw Eccles amass 11 points, finishing with seven goals and four assists. Smith wasn’t far behind, scoring six times and adding an assist as Cathers and Brown both earned four assists and had three combined tallies. Ryan Cook and Bradon Britton scored, too.

All that changed, though, when Corcoran went to Camillus to face West Genesee. Eccles never got a point, tailed all night by Wildcats defender Pat Brown, who also managed to sprint through the Cougars’ defenses for a rare goal

early in the first quarter. Only Smith and Cook would score, both in the first half.

Sophmore goalie Justin Monaghan made 10 saves, but was under fire all game long as, on two different occasions in the second half, WG would score in a span of 10 seconds or less. Cody Hoose led the Wildcats with four goals and four assists as Corey Herrington added four goals and two assists and Air Force Academy-bound Dylan Donahue added three goals.

Henninger, under first-year head coach Brian Smiley, began on March 29 with a come-

from-behind, 10-7 win over Central Square at Sunnycrest Field.

The Red Hawks led, 7-5, early in the fourth quarter, but the Black Knights tore down the stretch with five unanswered goals to pull it out as goalie Andre Shattell added to his total of 18 saves.

Colin Montgomery, with four goals and two assists, led the comeback, while Chris Wigler found the net three times. Alex Carni got two goals and one assist as Darryl Mercer landed the other goal and Andrew Jackson got an assist.

Crunch unlace skatesBy Russ Tarby

Syracuse Crunch fans can’t wait to forget this season.

The forgetting can begin April 10 after the Crunch ends its futile 2010-11 campaign in Pennsylvania against the Hershey Bears.

Although the season began with high hopes inspired by a new affiliation with the Anaheim Ducks, the team quickly proved itself an un-reliable mix of underachievers. Rookie coach Mark Holick juggled lines incessantly and tried in vain to plug holes caused by constant call-ups.

The team allowed far too many shots by its opponents and took too few of their own.

Forwards failed to fore-check. Defensemen failed to move the puck out of their zone. Goal-ies suffered mental meltdowns.

Thankfully, things have gotten better re-cently.

Since being mathematically eliminated from AHL playoff contention on March 23, the Crunch managed to cobble together a couple convincing winning streaks.

Relying heavily on scoring spurts by vet-erans Brian McGrattan and Patrick Maroon and rookies Kyle Palmieri and Maxime Ma-cenauer, the Crunch ended last month with a season-high five-game win streak. The skein

was snapped April 2 when the Adirondack Phantoms beat Syracuse 3-0 in Glens Falls.

But first the Crunch uplifted the biggest War Memorial crowd of this sad season by winning its fifth game in a row on April Fool’s Day against Route 81 rivals the Binghamton Senators.

Syracuse dominated from the start and seemed charmed when – on a second-period the power play – Palmieri was hauled down on a breakaway, resulting in a penalty shot. The slick stick-handler from Long island moved in on Sens goalie Robin Lehner and slipped a backhand through the legs of the Swedish net-minder on the way to a persuasive 6-4 victory. Other goals were netted by Crunch forwards Patty Maroon and Josh Green and blueliners Mat Clark and Mark Mitera

Since the five-game win streak ended Friday, Syracuse has lost two in a row, getting shut out by Adirondack Saturday and bowing 5-3 to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Penguins Sunday afternoon at the War Memorial despite two goals by Nick Bonino and one by Nicolas Deschamps.

Syracuse hosts the Norfolk Admirals at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, April 8 and 9, at the War Memorial, for the final two home games of the season. Ticket prices range between $13 and $20; 473-4444; syracusecrunch.com.

Pulled into Syracuse 2011 Wing Tournament: Downtown ResultsThe Downtown bracket kicks off the 2011

Pulled Into Syracuse Wing Tournament. Win-ner of the Downtown bracket advances to the Final Four and will take on the winner of the Northside/Eastwood bracket.

Downtown Round 1: Game 1

(1) Dinosaur Bar-B-Que’s “Wango Tango” wings: 4 points

(4) J. Ryan’s “Hot” wings: 0 pointsAs a 4 seed facing a 1 seed, J. Ryan’s wings

put up a good fight against Dino’s heavily favored Wango Tango variety. A zero in the score shouldn’t imply that J. Ryan’s were bad by any means. They were delicious and fared surprisingly well. They were just no match for Dino’s smoky, spicy, and sauce-slathered chicken wings. J. Ryan’s were above average in most aspects and even fared well with a sauce that tasted more like a bottled brand than the traditional Frank’s Red Hot style.

Regardless, they still had that great Buffalo-style flavor. If you love crispy wings, look to J. Ryan’s for the crispiest I’ve ever had. But Dino pulled out the stops with an amazing skin that was slightly charred and had enough crispness to balance the chewiness, a lingering heat that

makes you want to eat more, and some of the most tender chicken wing meat ever.

Untraditional, yes. But for perfectly crispy and smoky wings, Dino doesn’t mess around.

Winner: Dinosaur Bar-B-Que

Opening Round 1: Game 2(3) Syracuse Suds Factory’s “Fiery”

wings: 5 points(2) Bull & Bear Pub’s “Hot” wings: 2

pointsSomewhat of an under-matched 2 and 3

seed confrontation pitted Bull & Bear’s hot wings against Suds’ Fiery ones. For what it’s worth, J. Ryan’s probably could’ve beat either contestant, but alas, this is what happens in a single-elimination tournament. Since Bull & Bear’s wings were advertised as “award win-ning,” I expected some serious competition, but they were certainly the weakest among the

Downtown seeds with little to no Buffalo flavor, or any flavor, going on.

The generally small wings were topped with sliced pickled jalapenos, a nice touch that added some much-needed heat that was non-existent otherwise. I’d consider Bull & Bear’s wings slightly below average bar wings in most aspects as they picked up a few points where Suds could not.

Despite being served on the cold side and a sauce that could’ve been a notch hotter, Suds Factory’s Fiery wings did well. The jumbo-style sized wings had an excellent skin that was not overly crispy and was perfect on my account. There was a slightly odd flavor to the sauce that was lingering, leading me to believe that it may have been a less than higher-end bottled brand. Suds’ main downfall, however, was the incredibly dry meat.

Overall, Suds’ fared better and could prob-ably even do really well in other cities that aren’t

in Upstate New York.Winner: Syracuse Suds Factory

Round 2: Championship Game(1) Dinosaur Bar-B-Que’s “Wango Tango”

wings: 6 points(3) Syracuse Suds Factory’s “Fiery”

wings: 1 pointDespite the lopsided score, Suds’ are decent

wings. But with dry meat, a slightly odd flavor, and tangy but watery blue cheese, they never really stood a chance. The great skin just wasn’t enough to overcome Dino’s perfectly balanced wings. Dinosaur indeed brought its “A” game: a spicy, smokey barbecue sauce, a lingering heat that makes you want to eat more in each bite, and a good blue cheese that doesn’t cloud the wings.

Winner and champion of the Downtown bracket: Dinosaur Bar-B-Que.

In coming weeks, check back for the results from other neighborhoods and the ultimate winner of the tournament.

The dental office of Dr. Suzanne Shapero is helping to change the face of oral cancer. During April, Dr. Shapero will offer half off the cost of ViziLite Plus oral can-cer screening. ViziLite Plus is the most effective office oral screening available.Annual oral cancer screening exams are important

When oral cancer is found early, treatment can be suc-cessful 82 percent of the time. Unfortunately, when compare to the survival rate of other cancers, the survival rate of oral cancer has not improved greatly over the last 30 years.

Because early detection is a key to survival, it is im-portant to see your dentist regularly. ViziLite Plus with TBlue, used in conjunction with a routine head and neck examination performed by your dentist, can help to find abnormalities that could lead to cancer. That’s the kind of screening that could help save lives.How does ViziLite Plus work?

The ViziLite Plus exam is a painless exam that your dental professional can per-form in just a few minutes. ViziLite Plus uses a light source that helps to improve the examiner’s ability to identify abnormalities that may have been missed under normal lighting. Your dental professional will conduct the exam as follows:

1. First your dental profes-sional will exami=ne your mouth and look for any abnormalities.

2. Next, you will rinse with a solution that will help your dental professional conduct the ViziLite Plus exam.

3. Then, your dental pro-fessional will examine your mouth using ViziLite.

4. If a suspicious lesion is detected, it will be marked with TBlue, a blue dye, and documented.What will my dentist see?

Most of the time your dental professional will conduct a thorough oral cancer screening examina-tion that includes ViziLite Plus, and will see that every-thing looks completely nor-mal. That is good news!

However, there may be times when your den-tal professional identifies something that looks ab-normal. At that point, your dental professional will use their expertise and may ask you to come back in a few weeks to follow up, or may refer you to an oral surgeon for a biopsy.One American dies every hour from oral cancer.

The typical risk factors for oral cancer such as tobacco use and chronic alcohol consumption may be commonly known, how-ever a new risk factor called

HPV is now changing the face of oral cancer. HPV has long been known to cause cervical cancer in women and recent studies show that it may play a role in more than 25 percent of oral cancer cases.

The human papilloma virus is a common sexu-ally transmitted virus that is thought to be causing oral cancer in an increasingly younger patient popula-tion. Few people, if any, even know they have it. That is why your dentist recommends a potentially life saving screening exam

called ViziLite Plus.During April, this $50

procedure will be offered at $25 in recognition of Oral Cancer Awareness Month. If you are looking for a den-tal provider, Dr. Shapero is featuring a New Patient Special. Receive a free exam with cleaning and X-ray. Offer ends July 1, 2011.

Call 625-6643 today for these services and ask about their spring specials on in-office bleaching and adult braces.

In order to be more available, the office is now open until 7 p.m. Tuesdays.

They are also a par provider for Delta Dental PPO, Delta Premier and DeCare. Local employers include Weg-mans, Anheuser-Busch, AARP, Erie Insurance, Lockheed Martin Corp., M&T Bank, New York Power Authority, Clifton Springs Cavalier Transpor-tation and others.

The practice of Dr. Su-zanne Shapero is located at 1 Charlotte St. in the heart of Baldwinsville. Dr. Shapero and her staff look forward to meeting new patients.

Seneca Federal: Navigating economic changes, same solid community foundationKatrina Russo, Presi-

dent – CEO of Seneca Fed-eral Savings and Loan As-sociation is very passionate about her community bank and its solid decision mak-ing. 2010 marked Seneca Federal Savings and Loan Association’s 83th year of providing financial servic-es to communities within

Central New York. “This milestone is rare

in today’s financial in-dustry and we’re proud of it. Given the competitive environment and state of today’s economy, within which Seneca Federal op-erates, the association is fortunate to have a dedicat-ed staff of employees who

continue to provide excep-tional, personal customer service to our members. This dedication has proven to sustain us through many years,” Russo said.

Russo continued, “The national economy has been marked by high unemploy-ment rates, a rising num-ber of foreclosures, de-

clining home prices and contractions in business and con-sumer credit. The unemployment rate locally was slightly below the national average, which was 9.4 percent in De-cember 2010.”

She explained that in 2010, the as-sociation continued to have strong asset quality based on the association’s conser-vative underwriting standards and diligent monitoring of delinquent and nonperforming loans.

“We have remained committed to our charter of fostering homeowner-ship during 2010 by origi-nating over $12.4 million in residential mortgage loans,” she said. “Our net interest income is above last years’ level and we have maintained liquidity while preparing our balance sheet for the risk of infla-tion, and expanding our residential mortgage loan business as well as to in-vest in what management believes will be a future higher rate environment.”

The association’s oper-ating expenses are below last year’s level as a result of various factors includ-ing the completion of the final phase of the succes-sion plan, developed by the board over four years ago.

“The succession plan was a slow, seamless pro-cess that was completed in mid 2010. We were able to navigate our own in-ternal changes while also navigating all the various changes in the economy and banking regulations,” Russo said.

“Many small banks face a merger at the time ex-

ecutive and senior officers retire,” she said. “The con-tinued viability of Seneca Federal is not only a trib-ute to the board, but also to the retiring officers and employees who provided others with the knowledge and skill sets necessary for the association to carry on for many more decades under the thrift charter and to this end we are very thankful to be given this opportunity entrusted to us.”

Looking ahead to 2011, management remains committed to maintaining a steady course in carrying out the responsibilities entrusted to them by the board, as the merger be-tween the Office of Thrift Supervision and the Office of The Comptroller of the Currency occurs in July of this year.

“The extensive regu-latory changes brought about by the creation of the Consumer Finan-cial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the passing of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Con-sumer Protection Act in 2010 marks yet another transformation in bank-ing activities, which can stretch the resources of small community banks,” points out Russo.

R e f or m w i l l be far reaching into such areas as Federal consumer prote c t ion l aw compliance, state law compliance, and Homel and Security Regula-tions. The regu-latory burden is always dispropor-t ionately heavy f o r r e p u t a b l e lenders such as Seneca Federal as attempts are made

by the federal government to police the dishonest few. Russo is emphatic that the association will continue an ongoing commitment to educate and train its employees regarding new and changing compliance regulations to better as-sist both customers and noncustomers.

She believes that it’s reassuring for members to know our officers and employees have the ca-pability and initiative to successfully implement programs required by the complex regulatory environment. This abil-ity is just as necessary as f inancial performance in keeping community banks viable as dictated by the federal examination process.

Russo said, “The asso-ciation remains continued commitment to the finan-cial needs of our members regardless of economic conditions here or nation-wide. Whether the need is for home ownership (re-gardless of income level), home refinancing, auto loans and other consumer loans, business needs, or our community and charitable financial sup-port, Seneca Federal will be here.”

Hematology-Oncology Associates provides the highest level of quality careSince 1982, Hematology-Oncology Associates of CNY

(HOA) has been a private practice dedicated to provid-ing optimal care in a healing environment for the mind, body and spirit of patients dealing with cancer and blood disorders.

HOA is comprised of 16 physicians, 22 nurse practitio-ners/physician assistants and 200-plus clinical personnel in four locations including one in Rome and three in the greater Syracuse area. They are privileged to have patients entrust them with their medical care and allow them to be an integral part of their healthcare journey. HOA treats about 2,500 new cancer patients and 1,300 new patients with blood disorders each year.

HOA’s Clinical Research Department and Clinical Trials are one of our community’s jewels. HOA is one of just 50 National Cancer Institute Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP) participants in the U.S. There are times when HOA’s patients can benefit from clinical trials using new cancer treatments or technologies that are unavailable anywhere else in Upstate NY.

Everyone at HOA is deeply committed to offering their patients the most advanced treatments available. Their clinical staff is highly skilled and certified in their Oncol-ogy specialty. HOA’s comprehensive cancer sites offer infusion therapy and radiation therapy via two advanced Varian linear accelerators for IGRT (Image Guided Ra-diation Therapy). Their East Syracuse facility also houses the CyberKnife, the world’s most accurate radiosurgery weapon, which painlessly treats tumors with minimal effects on nearby healthy cells. The CyberKnife tackles tu-mors throughout the body including the spine, brain, lung and prostate – even those deemed inoperable. Because it’s so effective, patients need far fewer treatments. HOA also offers in-house CT imaging, giving their treatment teams quick, desktop access to each patient’s cumulative imaging, so physicians can closely monitor progress. In addition, their certified laboratory offers extensive on-site testing for exceptional results and patient convenience.

What makes their practice truly special is that everyone at HOA is “united in spirit” – a spirit that is filled with possibilities and hope. They believe that effective medical treatment is not only about healing their patients’ physical illnesses, but also about promoting their emotional, men-tal and spiritual well being. Their patients are treated like people – not cases. They offer counseling and alternative therapies such as Reiki, massage, healing touch, acupunc-ture and foot reflexology to complement their state-of-the-art medical treatments and clinical trials.

The mission of Hematology-Oncology Associates of CNY is to provide the highest level of quality care in a healing environment for the mind, body and spirit of pa-tients dealing with cancer and blood disorders. HOA’s sites include Brittonfield Parkway in East Syracuse – 472-7504; Onondaga Hill in Syracuse – 472-7504; North Medical Center in Liverpool – 472-7504, and East Chestnut Street in Rome – 339-5783. Their beautiful, healing space called “The Wellness Center” is located at 5700 West Genesee Street in Camillus and provides a haven of opportunity for the mind, body and spirit and it is open to the public. Visit their website at hoacny.com.

HOA is deeply committed to offering their patients the most advanced treat-ments available.

Syracuse Home specializes in short-term rehabilitation In a blink of an eye, Mi-

chelle Rurka’s life changed forever. On her way to visit her family in New Jersey, she hit a patch of black ice on the highway and lost control of her car. It flipped several times before resting on its roof. The impact of the crash broke her back.

Once stabilized in the hospital weeks later, she chose Syracuse Home’s short-term rehabilitation to help her recover from her injuries. “I am so grateful for the care I re-ceived at Syracuse Home. The therapists are well-trained, supportive and committed to helping us return home to our fami-

lies,” says Rurka.Syracuse Home’s com-

prehensive short-term rehabilitation has rapidly become one of Central New York’s most rec-ommended programs. Short-term rehabilitation at Syracuse Home fo-cuses on recovery by help-ing individuals build the strength, independence and confidence they need to return home.

The professional reha-bilitation therapies staff works with individuals with orthopedic condi-tions resulting from elec-tive surgeries like hip or knee replacements or injuries such as multiple fractures resulting from

accidents. Physical and occupa-

tional therapies develop skills that enable resi-dents to lead independent lives. “After my accident, I never thought I would walk again. Within three weeks of rehabilitation, I returned home. Words cannot describe how won-derful it felt to actually walk into my home. I can’t say enough about my experience. The nurses went above and beyond their normal duties to address my individual needs. I highly recom-mend Syracuse Home for short-term rehabilitation,” says Rurka.

Occupational therapies

address muscle strength, range of motion, plus cog-nitive and visual skills that enhance every day ac-tivities. When appropriate, speech therapies address treatment and manage-ment of communication impairments as well as swallowing disorders.

Located on a beautiful 150-acre campus in histor-ic Baldwinsville, Syracuse Home offers a full continu-um of healthcare programs and services for seniors including; independent retirement living, assisted living, memory care, re-spite care, skilled nursing care and short-term reha-bilitation.

As a not-for-prof it

organization, Syracuse Home boasts a 160-year miss ion of providing quality healthcare to all of those in need through-out the Central New York

region.To learn more about

the short-term rehabilita-tion program, please call the admissions coordina-tor at 315-638-2521.

St. Joseph’s to hold annual gala

St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation will host its annual black tie optional gala dinner dance on June 3. The event, which netted more than $304,381 last year, will be held at the Turning Stone Resort & Casino with a “green and silver eco-chic” theme.

The theme celebrates the first stage of one of the largest “green” building projects in Upstate New York – St. Joseph’s emergency services building – as well as the 20th year of successful galas held to support St. Joseph’s many programs and services.

In addition, this year’s gala features “Cham-pagne ‘On Ice’” by Cazenovia Jewelry. One lucky guest will take home a pair of one-carat total weight diamond stud earrings. 100 guests will have the opportunity to purchase a glass of champagne for a $75 donation to St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation. Each glass will contain a pair of stud earrings; however, only one glass will contain “real” diamonds. Ralph Monforte of Cazenovia Jewelry will be on-site to tell you if yours are “the real thing,” or simply an elegant pair of cubic zirconias.

Proceeds from the gala are used to support St. Joseph’s programs and services. Tickets to the event are $200 per person; $300 per patron and $3,000 per patron table. To RSVP by May 6, contact St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation at 315-703-2137 or e-mail [email protected]. For more information, visit the website at sjhsyr.org/foundation.
