Work introduction
Leoš Janá?ek based his final opera on his own libretto after Dostojevsky's Memoirs from the House of the Dead. He wrote, drafted and revised the opera in full score during 1927 - 1928. He then had it copied out by two of his long-established copyists (Václav Sedlá?ek and Jaroslav Kulhánek), who shared the work between them. Janá?ek supervised the copying and the correction of their score, making many changes and additions which resulted in new pages having to be inserted. Then he began a final check through the score, adding extra doublings, dynamics and other details in his own hand. He completed Acts 1 and 2 in this way, but died before he had checked Act 3. In other words, except for a final check of Act 3 and any last-minute alterations Janá?ek might have made at rehearsals, From the House of the Dead is no less finished than any other Janá?ek opera.

Vaccaro, president of The College of Saint Rose, announced Thursday, October 31, th a t the College has entered into an installment agreement with the Parish of St. Vincent de Paul for a 2.9 acre section of the Vincentian grounds. Properties included in the agreement are the 4200 sq. ft. library, a 2500 sq. ft. carriage house and the 16,000 sq. ft. Fr. Charles School. The p ro p e r ty , which b o rd e r s Madison Avenue to the north and Morris Street to the south, has been acquired to keep pace with the C o l leg e 's g rowth . " A te am of architects along with a special committee of CSR's Board of Trustees will look at various alternatives for the bets use o f the p roperty in line with the College's master plan," explained Dr. Vaccaro. Father Leo O'Brien, pastor of The Church of Saint Vincent de Paul, stated, "This agreement with The College of Saint Rose will allow for the continued use of these buildings for educational purposes and will still permit bur parish's commitment to Christian education. We are pleased to cooperate with the College in this venture." While the final decision on use of the space is expected to take several months, interim plans include housing of several Art Division classes during renovations to CSR's Picotte Gallery. D 'Attilio Runs for Local Office — Towers The College has been fortunate enough to benefit from the knowledge and enthusiasm of Mike D 'Attilio for the past thirteen years, and his concern for the students has been demonstrated many times over in that time period. He has helped to make our years here more productive and enjoyable through such services as the ministry, the career center, the psychological and health services, and athletics and activities. Being Dean of Students has not prevented Mr. D'Attilio from branching out in new and exciting directions, however, and he is presently running for the public office of Alderman for Ward 13. Assuming active and influential roles is not uncommon for our Dean. As well as being a devoted husband and father, he is a past president of the Manning Boulevard Neighborhood Association, the president elect of his state professional association, a church school teacher, and a member of the Religious Education Council. An inspection of his promotional pamphlet will give an even more in-depth view of his many activities and accomplishments. The pamphlet also lists some o f Mr. D 'Attilio's major objectives if he is elected. One important goal is to establish a ward-wide Advisory Board to ameliorate deficits in communication. A periodic newsletter to all residents will help to keep them informed. Crime prevention and neighborhood watch programs will be encouraged by Mr. D 'Attilio, and the Tricentennial spirit will be kept alive by close work with Mayor Whalen. He is also interested in zoning, fire safety, water fluoridation, and other area concerns. Although Mr. D 'Attilio does not Carondelet Exchange —participants agree, it's worth the trip! — D eb b ie R u d ic k Through the Carondelet Exchange Program, Saint Rose has acquired a few new faces this semester from various college campuses across the United States. Saint Rose, in affiliation with five other Carondelet-sponsored colleges— from California to the midwest to New York—is involved in a student exchange program. It is designed to allow a student to spend up to two semesters studying in different college settings. The colleges that participate in the program, sponsored by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, are Avila College in Kansas City, MO, Fontbonne College in St. Louis, MO, The College of St. Catherine and St. Mary's Junior College in Minneapolis, MN, Mt. St. Mary's College in Los Angeles, CA, and The College of Saint Rose. G e r r i ly n S c h ie rm a n , a J u n i o r accounting major, has come to St. Rose because she has desired to see New York fo r many years. She fo u n d the Carondelet program the perfect way to realize her dreams. Chuckling, Gerri said the real reason she came was because she "didn't want to spend another winter in Minnesota!" She was also attracted by the wide variety of business courses that would be available to her. Even though the student population at St. Rose is larger than St. Catherine's, CSR seems smaller to Gerri than her home campus. "I feel closer to people here. 1 have a wider variety of friends here than at St. Kate's," she said. Also from St. Catherine's, Amy Brandenburg, a Senior majoring in Telecommunications, has come to A lb a n y b e c a u s e , she k new th e opportunity was there and, she reasons, "If I didn't do it, 1 would have regretted it." Amy feels the exchange is "a wonderful opportunity in which 1 have had to learn to be totally different." Accustomed to an all-women's college and the larger city of Minneapolis, Amy has discovered the smaller city, the tighter community of students to be challenging. But, with enthusiasm, Amy said, "If 1 can make it here, I can make it anywhere!" Jackie Nason, a Junior accounting/ marketing student, felt that she needed to get out of the small, competitive environment of Mt. St. Mary's. The Carondelet Exchange is, she said, **a Mike D'Attilio, d e a n of s tu d e n ts , v e n tu re s Into local politics. "anticipate winning," he hopes that they "will pull some votes." It is his wish that his ideas will be implemented whether he is voted in or not. D 'Attilio believes that in cumb en t A ld e rman R o b e r t Van Amburgh "has done a good jo b ," but it is his belief that the people of Albany are entitled to a choice, and his Republican ticket will give them that choice. Giving people an option is not his only reason for running. The campaign has been a wonderful learning experience for himself and the eight students working with him. Mainly, D 'Attilio wants to "make an impact." What better way to do that than in a public office position. "To be effective you need variety," says D'Attilio. If this statement is correct then he is one of the most effective men on campOs. He lives by a self-developed motto: P.I.E.—Positive, Involved, and Enthusiastic. He laughingly states that "everyone needs a piece of the P.I .E." I happen to agree with Mike D 'Attilio; everyone does need a piece of the P.I.E., and by observing our Dean we can all be on our way. GOOD LUCK DEAN D 'ATTILIO!!! It's That Time Again, Foll<s -—Fran L oG iu d ice The hysteria it causes is unbelievable. Everyone seems to run around as if they have had their heads cut off. Can you blame them? Imagine your whole world falling apart. You'd be frantic too! The way it sneaks up on people is really tragic. There always are bulletins about such catastrophes but nobody ever thinks it can happen to him or her. But what's even more terrible than the realization of the upcoming calamity is the trail of destruction the disaster leaves behind. Papers scattered all over the place. Bodies gasping for air. Minds twisted with agony! And those are just the survivors. The ones who are claimed by the tragedy may have collapsed beneath the weight of the pressure but they are never forgotten by the survivors. The Survivors. The strong few who somehow kept their wits about them during all the fury. They can now start putting their lives in order and try to get back to normal. I am one of the survivors and I urge you to listen. Even though midterms are behind you now, be prepared! The finals will be here sooner than you expected! Don't be one of the storm's victims.

P a g e 2 O .N o v e n b c r 4 , IM S □ I n c a p e D i s e a s e R a m p a g e s T h r o u g h C a m e l o t —/4 satire by Jo h n James H icke y Once upon a time, very much like the present, there was a tiny castle called Camelot in the Kingdom of Roses. Camelot was one of the best learning centers in the Kingdom of Roses. Many scholars and apprentices were trained here. For many years Camelot enjoyed prosperity, led by able Kings and Queens. That was all before the epidemic hit. What was Camelot like? It was a small castle surrounded by a cement moat known as "Side-Walk," because outside this moat was the Real-World and inside this moat was Security. Everyone in the castle felt they did not need the Real-World because things kept changing in the real world. (Changes are good, as long as they are for the better). It was exciting to see new ideas being generated in the Real- World. This is what kept the Real- World alive, fresh and young. No one in Camelot wanted changes. Whenever an idea was suggested they would exclaim, "It'll never work!" Then they would politely add, "Besides it's never been done before." The students in Camelot never had any protestations about events happening around them. They did not like to speak out. When questioned of this, they would reply: "Why take risks in speaking out? I'm happy with the way things are. Besides I'm trying out for a leadership position next semester, so I don't want to spoil my chances." They never realized that taking these risks might enhance their chances for a position. Whenever a new idea was tried out, it was so poorly planned that large quantities of the students' money was wasted. For instance, the King's architect changed the layout of the Tea Garden three times! Each time, the flowers had to be planted and transplanted, and the garden walls had to be built and demolished over and over again. The workers would spend one day digging holes, and the next day they would fill them up again. In the Watch Tower of the castle a two-seated Love-Seat used for private tete-a-tetes was removed. In its place was built a cute, multi-purpose little kitchen for the Royal Guards, that also served as an information booth. What became of the Love-Seat used for private tete-a-tetes? It was ingeniously re-located in the middle of a busy thoroughfare, where it became near impossible to have private talks. Money wasted on half baked ideas could have been spent on maintenance purposes. Maintaining the beautiful old castle was given secondary attention. Eventually, if no one showed any signs of resistance, they would replace all the old historic sections of the castle with new, modern equivalents. In the meantime if a roof leaked or caved in they would exclaim with relief, "Thank God it's not my roof!" It would be weeks before the roof would be fixed. During this time the student could enjoy an unobstructed view of the heavens. How nice. What happened when an intelligent idea was suggested? In the event that this happened, the King had, on reserve, courtiers specially trained to recognize imaginative ideas, especially ones that would work. Their mission was to quickly extinguish the idea. First they would find the creative person who generated the thought, then they would be thoughtful enough to let them know that their idea was stupid. To drive the point home they would add, "Besides, it's never been done before!" This brilliant critique was a service provided free of charge, and in effect, would discourage anyone from being productive. In any event, good ideas were discouraged, and waste and chaos was encouraged. And the culture? There was none. You were not allowed to expand your cultural scope or social involvement in Camelot. 1 am very sorry; I take that back. There was culture: once a month they would bring in a sorcerer or a hypnotist, and that would easily satisfy all the political, scientific, artistic, literary, musical, and dramatical needs of these simple people. And what about these simple people? What were they like? All the men were named Eugene, and all the women were named Eugenia (or Sr. Eugenia). Yes, it was very boring here because no one wanted to be different. Why be different? That's a risk. And risk taking was another thing they did not like to do. What had been developing over the years in Camelot was a deadly disease. The disease is called apathetica cranium degeneratium. Yes—"brain rot" hit Camelot. This disease is caused by a pool of stagnating old useless ideas and transmitted by people who refuse to accept new ideas and carry them out intelligently. What are the symptoms, you may ask? They vary. Among the students it caused a blindness: they could not see changes (for the worse!) that were happening around them. The a d m i n i s t r a t i o n h a d d i f f e r e n t symptoms. Their system of reasoning disintegrated to the point where they could no longer reason properly and make wise decisions. The faculty was struck with the apathetica part of the disease. They grew indifferent to their peers and to their students. Their d e p a r tm e n ts no longer worked together. The faculty did not care a b o u t their students either, the students that they molded with their teachings for four years. That's right. They no longer went to the jousting matches, pageant plays, or purchased student ar t work. Eventually the faculty stopped encouraging voyages beyond "Side-Walk" into the Real- World. They no longer encouraged their students to know much more information beyond the scope of their concentration of studies. It is a shame that such a warm, friendly population had to die out. They were all such nice people. But they never got involved, never supported each other, never took pride in themselves or in what they were doing. How many times did they brag about Camelot to their friends or to the newspapers? Is it because Camelot never did anything worthwhile? No, of course not. And what about the King's Publicity Department? How come they did not make sure that Camelot was in the spotlight all the time shining brightly as it ought to be? The saddest part of this fairy tale is its truth, and the truth often hurts. Perhaps someone or a group of someones immune to the disease o f the system will fight to re-establish an exciting university filled with witty, cultured, and educated young people. Someday that prince or princess will come... Will this fairy tale have a happy ending? That is up to you. Apathetica cranium degeneratium— Latin n. brain rot disease caused by stagnating old and useless ideas, transmitted by people who never take risks or are willing to accept change. First symptom: denying its existence. Who's News in CSR Faculty D r. Y o la n d a O r ta l - ft! —Fran L oG u id ic e Congratulations go to Dr. Yolanda Ortal. A demo tape of her play "Balada Sonambula de los Desterrados del Sueno" ("The Sleepwalker's Ballad of Those Exiled from their Dreams") was recently shown in the Camelot Room and received an encouraging response. It was one of many activities planned for Hispanic Heritage Week. Dr. Ortal says the play is essentially a love story which is played against the background of the Batista and Castro dictatorships. The play centers around a young married couple, Maria and Alfredo, and how their lives are changed drastically by the regimes. The messages of oppression and broken promises are evident throughout the entire play. Dr. Ortal is quick to point out that the play is by no means totally fiction. She herself was a student of the University of Havana during the last few years of the Batista regime and was one of the many students who thought that Castro would be a better leader. She lost many friends to the Batista revolution just as Maria's brother, Juan, dies while fighting the revolution. But things went from bad to worse when Castro took over. Many freedoms were taken away from the Cuban people and Cas tro 's promises of a true democracy were shattered to pieces. Refugees flocked by the thousands to America and Dr. Ortal was one of them. She traveled from Cuba to Jamaica to Miami, Florida and remained there for two weeks. After becoming a United States citizen, she came to Albany, New York. For the past twenty years she has been teaching here at CSR and is currently the head of the Foreign Language Department. The play is set up in an unusual fashion. It begins with a series of dramatizations , newspaper clippings, and video news footage juxtaposed to clearly and rapidly establish the historic background of the Batis ta /Ca s tro conflict and the aftermath of the Castro takeover. Throughout the rest of the play, Maria and her mother, Teresa, experience many flashbacks to the time when they were in Cuba and in the middle of the crisis. The cast is comprised of students from Albany Law School and Saint Rose. They all give excellent performances and Dr. Ortal gives them, as well as the editor, Mark Ryan, much of the credit for the success of the film. Dr. Ortal plans adding a few more scenes and adding English captions in order that more people will be able to follow the Spanish spoken scenes. When asked why she wrote the play, Dr. Ortal replied quite solemnly, "My main reason for writing this play is to tell the true story of the Cuban people and to show that most of the refugees who came to America were disenchanted with the regime (Castro's) that they themselves had helped to bring about." She hopes that her play will clear up some of the misunderstandings about the Cuban people. A reshowing of the tape is in the planning so be sure to keep your ears open for announcements. Good luck to Dr. Ortal with all her future writing endeavors. Sk i/Re c Clu b b r in g s Autumn to C am p u s C e n te r .

Parking at CSR—a CATastrophe! —D eb b ie R u d ic k For weeks now a small black cat has been restlessly wandering about the CSR c am p u s . I t h a s ma d e meowin g appearances inside most of the major buildings. The cat has been sighted anxiously investigating each and every tree, crawl space, and walkway. The reason why? The black cat, like many CSR people, has simply embarked upon a futile quest for that ultimate and ideal parking place. The parking problem is affecting our social values and rationale. Maybe the black cat will find the solution to the problem. (How is that for rationale?) Everyone knows the c a ta s t ro p h ic implications of a black cat but BAD LUCK has nothing to do with the college's parking problem. But why not blame it on bad luck? Bad luck should go away eventually, but our parking problem will not. A professor gave me the perfect example of how the parking situation is affecting rationale. Commuting during rush hour can be traumatic enough without the additional worry of finding a parking space. This professor (who considers herself a fairly cautious driver) found herself worrying one morning about making it to her class on time. The cars around her were, as usual, recklessly maneuvering in and out of the two lanes. She spotted a brown and yellow CSR parking sticker on the bumper ahead of h e r . N e c e s s a r i ly , h e r r a t i o n a l e disintegrated as she felt compelled to swerve out and around the other CSR person so she could get to the college first and therefore possibly obtain that one last parking place. As she was passing, T e l . : ( 5 1 8 ) 4 3 9 - 6 6 6 2 4 3 9 - 9 0 8 6 O p e n 1 1 A .M . t o 1 0 : 3 0 P .M .

Of course, she laughed about it later but at the time, her decision had not seemed at all irrational. The parking problem has also affected our social values. CSR people have become deviants; we no longer feel the need to obey parking rules—both on the streets and in the lots. Fire hydrants have been blocked, handicap spaces have been illegally filled, fire lanes and tight corners in the lots have been used as parking spots. Just ask any campus security guard and surely he can qualify this with the vast numbers of parking tickets he has been forced to issue this term. And to see someone arrive a t his/her car to find a ticket is not a pleasant sight. I saw one student snatch the ticket off her windshield and rip it into shreds. When I received a street violation, I simply lifted the windshield wiper, plucked it out, and shook my head with disgust. Whether the person reacts with anger or weariness, the reactions all stem from frustration. The problem is that only 200 cars can park in 200 spaces while the rest of us are left driving around the block, hoping and praying that someone for some reason will decide to go home. It is either that o r get a parking ticket. And since there is no immediate solution, the frustration can only grow. At the Commuter Parking Rally, Mike D'Atillio rationalized something like how those of us who have been getting parking tickets do: "Since there are no solutions, there is no problem." I have a hunch that the black cat is going to be around for quite some time. Semester Break Field Experiences The Career Center is offering a unique opportunity for those students interested in exploring their career options and opportunities during the semester break in January. This program will provide students with a realistic idea of how people in different c a re e r s sp e n d th e i r t im e by "shadowing" professionals at their place of work. The career fields represented by parents volunteering for this program include accounting, computer, sales and marketing, government, human services and many more. If you want to participate in the program, please come to the Career Center to sign up with a professional of your choice.

CSR Swim Team—Looking Good —Mike Fondacaro Another year is upcoming for CSR's swim team and Head Coach Colleen Healy can't help but be optimistic. "The team looks pretty good so far, much better than it did last year," she says. Healy also said the roster was strong and she labeled newcomers Bevin McCarthy (breaststroke) and Michelle Nappi (diving), and returning team members Sue Mahler (captain), Ann Durant, Terry Dobson, Katrina Veeder and Kathy Costello as "much needed for the team." She added that the relay teams (especially the medley) will score a lot of points for the team during the meets. Coach Healy has high aspirations for the team, and said that with a little luck they may get to the NAIA Nationals. The team's schedule this year will consist mostly of NCAA teams, as they are the only NAIA team in the NAlA's District 31. Coach Healy cites a lack of members as a problem, and invites anyone with previous competitive experience to speak with her about joining the team. All home meets are held at the pool in the Activities Center. The team would truly appreciate your support.

The two teams based on individual performance. Women's Tennis and Men's and Women's Cross-Country, had the best shot at doing well, according to athletic director Cathy Haker. The women's tennis team began district play on October 26th at Concordia. Their record going in was 3-5. The real bright spot was to be crosscountry this year. The team began its district play on November 2nd at The cm Ath le tic D e p a r tm e n t King's College. The consensus was that two or three runners could do well a t the districts. CSR's #1 runner this year, Kathy Mulderry, went to the nationals last year. The truly team-oriented sports. Men's Soccer and Women's Volleyball, had to be one of the top four teams in the district to qualify. Haker said that the soccer team, 2-10 with two games left, would not qualify. She was unsure about Women's Volleyball, 3-17. Incidentally, the NAIA districts for baseball do not take place in the fall. The CSR baseball team will be competing for district play in the spring.

Not only willing to aid people in need of legal advice, he can speak on behalf of certain interest groups with goals aimed at legal topics. Also, for those students who foresee a future in law school, Mark is more than happy to steer them in the right directions.

W h o 's N ew s : D a v e B u d a —i?ostf Pratti The lights dimmed and the crowd roared, as the band took the stage. With a roll o f the drums, and a strum of the guitar, the band broke into their first song. The excitement one feels a t a concert is certainly a unique and exhilarating experience. Imagine the feeling, however, knowing that you were responsible for the action behind the scenes, knowing that you set up the drums or helped to check the microphones. Dave Buda, a Junior at CSR, knows this feeling. He spent this past summer working and touring as Johnny Winter's stage manager. This tour took him across the country to nearly every state, and even Canada. Buda, who lives in Colonie, transferred to CSR this year from Hudson Valley. His experience in the **Rock & Roll World" began in 1981, when he was hired as a "roadie" for Penny Knight, who have since changed their name to Night Flight. Buda's work with Penny Knight led to jobs a t other area concerts with such groups as Blotto, John Cafferty and the Beaver Brown Band, Pat Travers and the P o i n t e r S i s t e r s . T h e s e v a r io u s performances, spanning from 1981 to 1984, e v e n tu a l ly g av e h im th e opportunity to work for Blue Horizon M a n a g em e n t , I n c . , l o c a t e d in Manhattan. In February of this year, Buda began working as the stage manager for Johnny Winter's "Guitar Slinger" tour. While on tour with Winter, Buda had the chance to work along with such rock greats as Gregg Allman, Edgar Winter, Roy Buchanan and George Thorogood. Being on tour had other benefits too. Aside from sight-seeing, Buda met other "big names" in the music business, such as the members of Dire Straits. Although being on the road and constantly on the move was extremely tiring at times, it offered Buda valuable experience. Being on tour was like "having a taste of the real world," Buda said. "Meeting new people, adapting to new environments and taking on challenging situations daily, is an educational experience all of its own." Bu d a 's re sp o n s ib i l i t ie s as stage manager included making sure that the stage equipment got from city to city, as well as keeping the crew and band — D ehbie R u d ic k The Twickenham Players from St. Rose performed "Serious Bizness," a comedy revue, on October 24 at the Empire State Plaza Convention Center and again on October 26 in St. Joseph's Hall at CSR. "Serious Bizness," by J. Allen, D. Babcock, W. Holzman, and D. Perman, is a series of comic sketches and songs that covers everything from the effects of country and punk music on the mind to the new technology of telephone conversation to the creation of babies and super-babies. Through the variety of characters and scenes, all paradigms of modem morals and manners, the revue pokes fun at some of the trials and questions of the 1980's. In the relaxed atmosphere of the Convention Center, approximately 100 people came to see the hour-and-a-half of sophisticated fun. The show at CSR, part of the Family Weekend events, also drew a large crowd of parents and students. The astonishingly rapid pace of the revue increased little by little, leaving the audience no time in which to wonder what was next to come. With wonderful acting, props, and costuming, the Twickenham Players masterhandedly whizzed through the delicately stinging scenes to create a light-hearted and fun-filled performance of social parody. If you missed the show. Director Maria Aronson and the cast are hoping to perform the comedy again. Watch for notices and make an attempt to go to see this seriously high-spirited "Serious Bizness." content. He was also the drum technician for the drummer, Tom Compton. As for the future, Buda plans to finish school, while touring for Blue Horizon Management in between semesters. He believes that his taste of the "real world" makes him realize that this probably "doesn't just go for the rock and roll business." After all, he added, "One can only believe half of what he sees, and nothing of what he hears." Open Mic Night: A Talent Showcase for Family Weekend —E la in e Gier What better way to spend a relaxing evening with live entertainment on October 25, than to listen to the talents of C.S.R., students. Interested parents and students alike filled the Camelot room as they anxiously awaited the show to begin. Master of ceremonies, Marc Futia, in t ro d u c e d each set b efore they performed. Colleen Wall, both pianist and singer started the evening with "Broken Hearts," a slow, mellow song. Colleen started singing in third grade and has learned how to play the piano by ear. She developed both skills to lead her to singing in both a high school band and chorus. Colleen does write her own songs and acts as a soloist providing her own accompaniment. GREASY POTS AND DISHPAN HANDS entered next with "Rock-N-Roll Girls," "Louis Louis," "Cocaine," and "Wipe Out." The group, composed of: drummer—Steve Lloyd, rhythm guitar—Russell Sass, vocalist and lead guitar—Greg DeJulio, and bass guitar— Chris Farrell, got the audience psyched with their talented playing and choice of songs. The title that the group decided to call themselves was picked, "out of the blue," as Steve Lloyd said. And who says that a title has to have meaning? The oddity of the name will prompt us more to remember them in the future. The pace was slowed down a bit to a song a lot of us can relate to—"Out Here On My Own" from the musical Fame. The pianist—Anne Nau, a junior at the college a c com p a n ie d s inger, J e a n Kristensen, a sophomore. Jean has been on stage since she was five years old. Anne, another talented individual has been playing the piano since she was eight years old. A total of seven years at the piano has given her the ability to perform at the sixth grade level—the hardest level of music. Next, a duo of guitarist and singer, Paul Strausman and Carol Coogan centered their songs around love and family th a t so o th ed its listeners. "Morning Sky" by Dan Fogleberg, "Shower The People" by James Taylor, Carol King's, "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow" and a personally composed piece by Paul entitled, "Rainbows All Over My Room," composed their contribution. Carol Coogan has just recently joined Paul as an accompanist, singer. Paul, himself, has been playing and singing for a while though. He not only plays folk music but also writes and sings childrens songs. A determined Bill Bywater, a senior here at the college, was adamant about providing the audience with some musical piece with his guitar, even if he warmed up his bystanders with two partial songs. One must never give up and he didn't. The audience was supportive to his efforts and at last we all chimed in to help him sing "Hey Jig-A-Jig Kiss A Little Pig, Follow The Train." As the title implies, it was a fun piece to sing to as the audience accompanied Bill. A seven member group jumped up next. They call themselves IMPROMPTU and thought to add a fifties medley to their Beach Boy's medley as well. Mary Pat Gutierrez played the piano for her associates, Robin Colley, Kristi Brosseau, Noelle Kowobus, Trever Famulare, Eric Gloo, and Dan Hanifin as they sang "Get Around," "In My Room," "Wish They All Could Be California Girls" and "Fun, Fun, Fun." Group singing was encouraged as they also sang "Sixteen Candles," "Bony Marony" and " At The H o p " with Eric Gloo accompanying them at the piano. To close off their production, Robin, Kristi and Mary Pat combined voices to imitate the Andrew Sisters in "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B." This jazz piece added a nice color to the variety of the show. Up next was Dana Pickett singing "You're My Home," by Billy Joel with Maryanne Grogan at the piano. Dana has been singing since he was fourteen. In high school, he would participate in all the musicals receiving the honor of fulfilling the lead roles and also he has had the opportunity of conducting his high school choir. Dana, a freshman-sophomore, is pursuing music as his major. Maryanne comes from a musical family of which her contribution is piano playing and singing. She started piano lessons in second grade and continued through fourth grade. At this point, she stopped with lessons and now practices three and a half hours each day on her own. Maryanne played and sang 'Natural Woman" by Carol King, "Summer In Highland Falls" by Billy Joel and "Honeypiece" from the Beatles. A special thanks goes out to all these people for sharing their talents with the rest of us. The audience clearly enjoyed th em s e lv e s by s in g in g with th e performers, clapping or just listening to the many different songs. The performers also seemed to be enjoying themselves and we hope to see them all back again.

C a r o n d e l e t E x c h a n g e good chance to get away and learn something dif ferent.. .Originally, I was going to come to school here (in N.Y.) and I've wanted to see New York since my Freshman year." " I like it here because it's so different from the Mount,'' Jackie said. Because she has always lived in the west coast, the change of seasons and the enviroiiment are captivating to her. Although she misses the beaches, Jackie is happy at St. Rose and intends to stay for the entire school year. Only one St. Rose student has taken advantage of the Carondelet Exchange this semester; Elizabeth Smith has gone to study at Mt. St. Mary's for the year. Last semester, however, both Tracie Weinlein an d ' Michelle Im p a s ta to travelled to Los Angeles. Bill Bywater also headed out to Fontbonne College in Missouri. In retrospect, Michelle Impastato feels that the exchange is "something that if anyone has the opportunity to do, they should do it!" Not only does Michelle consider her trip worthwhile because of the exposure to the west coast, but she also said, "There are a lot of things that a school has to offer just because it's smaller." Because of her Carondelet exchange experience, Michelle intends to return to California in the future. C om m e n t in g on h is e x c h a n g e experience, a r t student Bill Bywater feels that academically the exchange is "a good chance to double the number of teachers you are exposed to in your field— especially in a field like art where you can learn something different from each teacher." St. Catherine's Sue Mayleben, who came to CSR last year, liked it here so much that she has transferred in this year to complete her degree at St. Rose. She stated, "I came here because I never had any intentions of staying in Minnesota. I stayed because everything was more convenient h e r e . . . I like the laid-back atmosphere of St. Rose better than the strong pressure of St. Kate's." The Carondelet Exchange allows the student to register, receive credits and pay tuition directly through his/her home campus. The only additional cost is air fare to and from the college the student chooses. If anyone is interested in finding out more about this opportunity, contact Sister Geraldine Kennah, Director of Academic Counseling. from p a g e f Mar iene G o u d re a u a n d h e r mom d em o n s t r a te th e c lo s e n e s s fo u n d d u r in g Family Weekend. T a k i n g A d v a n t a g e o f L i b e r a l A r t s ^ S c o t t E . Cole Question: When is a liberal arts school not a liberal arts school? As an Art and Public Communication major, I have been exposed to a vast amount of students who are surprisingly narrow minded when it comes to taking courses that are not specifically designed for their prospective career. Writers cringe at the thought of taking an Art course. Artists feel that computers will stifle or inhibit their creativity, and business majors are sickened by taking science courses. The fact is that these students do not realize that they can all benefit, directly and indirectly, from taking a broad range of liberal arts classes. Knowledge in a variety of subjects will help them in their career and make them more interesting overall. The College of Saint Rose requires all undergraduates to complete 36 credits in a "liberal arts core." Many students enter these required courses with a certain degree of preconceived negativity, and make no attempts in trying to gain anything from the classes. Many more students fail to go beyond the absolute minimum of required courses. There are several reasons why students should take advantage of the wide variety of courses that CSR has to offer. First, they may discover some hidden talent or a new area of interest. Second, becoming well voiced in a number of topics makes students more aware and perceptive of the world around them. Most important, perhaps, is the fact that a potential employer is more likely to hire a qualified individual who is well rounded than an equally qualified "robot" who knows little more than the specific skills in the area in which he or she is trained. Students who neglect to see the advantages of a liberal arts education along with the training of any field, are failing to fulfill one of the primary objectives of choosing a college like CSR, and should reconsider their priorities. If they seek only to become trained for a specific job, there are other suitable and less expensive vocational schools in the area. If they seek also to become a more insightful and intellectual individual, then they will continue their studies at The College of Saint Rose. SA Party Attacks Apathy ^G e o r g e T. M e ro Here we are in the beginning of November, and most of you probably don't care. After all, if you don't care about the events and various happenings on campus why care about what day it is? I'm sorry if I sound a little sarcastic, but that's because one of the few that does care. I am also a firm believer that it's not your fault. In my opinion, the fault lies within publicity of our events. Well, as you have probably noticed, we are trying to change that. On November 8 there will be a "Bye-Bye Apathy Party" that is sponsored by the Student Association Executive Board. Unless you are blind or just plain ignorant, you must have seen some of the posters and flyers that went out. I am positive that you all have had ample notice of the event. I'm not going to talk about the prizes of the different contests, or about the weird entertainment for the evening. I will encourage you to prove me wrong when I say, "You just don't care." Now that I've said my share about the apathetic people on this campus, I would like to invite you all to prove me wrong on Friday, November Sat 8:30 pjn. in the Camelot Room.

Last week, with the help of Szabo Food Service, students sacrificed meals for Mexican relief. With the help of monetary donations, the total amount raised for Mexicans reached nearly $300. This money will be sent through the Albany diocese to Mexico, where it will aid earthquake victims. The Committee is also currently involved in helping the homeless at Louanga House in Albany.

Anyone interested in helping with' the project should contact Paul Milonovich. W i t n e s s f o r P e a c e —P a n / Strausman On Monday, September 30th, at St. Joseph's Auditorium, five members of the group Witness For Peace gave a talk and slide show presentation and answered questions from the nearly 200 people in attendance about their recent return from Nicaragua after being held hostage for several days by Nicaraguan rebels in Costa Rica. Witness For Peace is an organization sponsored by the Pledge Of Resistance, a group of over 70,000 members pledged to nonviolently resist U.S. intervention in Central America. They were founded in 1983 after seeing violence diminish in areas of Central America that they were visiting. Their purpose is to lead religious and peaceful missions to troubled areas and document what is really going on down there. According to U.S. Rep. Samuel Stratton, D-Schenectady, the whole hostage incident was a publicity stunt *4 staged by Witness For Peace to make the U.S. Government look bad. The group is upset by statements like this, as well as the mostly inaccurate press coverage of the capture. Using slides and a detailed account of the ordeal. Spokesperson Kim Wardrop set about to tell the story of what happened to them on the trip. Even before leaving the U.S., there were reports that the rebels would fire on their boat. The trip began with a festive send off by the people of the city of Managua, Nicaragua, and several other cities along the way. The group of 29 members, 15 media from the U.S. and Canada, 6 crewmembers, 2 women and 1 baby stopped at two Costa Rican guardposts to pray and also at several sites of recent war violence, including La Penca, recently retaken by the Sandinistas. The next day, at 7:40 in the morning, a shot was fired at the boat from the Costa Rican side and they were ordered to leave the boat. The whole group was marched through the jungle for approximately 2 kilometers over very hilly and muddy terrain and held until the next day in a ^ small shack in the jungle. The next afternoon they were told they could go back to the boat and be held there, but on the way the contras got them lost in the jungle. The leader of the contras was very angry and wanted to go back to the shack, but by this time the group was too tired and sick from the jungle conditions. They talked the contras into letting them continue on to the ship, where they stayed overnight. The next day they heard on the ships radio from Costa Rica that they would be released in four hours. After their release, they were stopped by the Costa Rican civil guard and detained for several hours on orders of the U.S. Consul. Although there were many conflicting reports and unanswered questions about what happened on the trip, to this date Witness For Peace has not been questioned about the incident by anybody in the U.S. Government, either officially or informally.

I find it both necessary and helpful to relate to divinity as Mother. Helpful because in searching for the richest and most personal way to speak of God, Mother presents itself as a natural and forceful option; necessary because there is something deeply and uniquely female about the divine. Consider for the appropriateness of viewing God as Mother, the Biblical basis. I am no biblical scholar, but it doesn't take a whole lot of smarts to see that the Judeo-Christian concept of God as presented in the Scriptures contains a female dimension. This is not to say that there are not other, sometimes even male sexist, emphases in the Bible. It is only to suggest that there is a solid basis for a more inclusivist understanding o f God as well. Let's begin with the Creation Story. God is depicted as saying "Let us make humankind in our image" and "male and female were created." Not only does this text suggest a relational reality at the heart of the Godhead, but it clearly implies that this divine sociality is appropriately reflected in both genders of humanity, as well as within the relational interaction between them. This sociality clearly resonates with the Christian notion of the trinitarian character of the Godhead. Skipping along to the prophets, there are numerous passages in Isaiah that portray God in feminine imagery: as a woman in labor (42:14), as a mother (49:15, 66:33), and as midwife and nursemaid to Israel (46:3-4). This is especially important to note, since the ancient Hebrew culture was one which equated the women's role in society with second-class citizenry. In this connection it is also significant that on several occasions in the Old Testament women functioned as God's representatives. Perhaps the most crucial New Testament passage in the biblical case for relating to God as Mother is that wherein Jesus tells Nicodemus he must be "bom a g a in ." A l th o u g h it s h o u ld be remembered that Jesus is only recorded as using this metaphor once (thereby undercutting the legitimacy of rendering it into pious cliche), it is highly significant that he did in fact use it. For, clearly, the imagery of being born of God's Spirit entails conceiving of God as a woman (John 3:5-8). Elsewhere in the New Testament as well, awakening to spiritual reality in Christ is spoken of as being "regenerated" and "quickened" by God, a c tiv itie s th a t imply the female reproductive process. Let us turn now to a theological rationale for relating to God as Mother. Such considerations should tie the foregoing remarks together, for they both follow from the latter and, in another sense, could be said to undergird them. My suggestion here is that we hinge our thinking on two symbiotic concepts simultaneously. The first Ls metaphor and the second is mystery. T o b e g in w i th , it m u s t be acknowledged that to think and speak of God is to do so as finite human beings. Theology is, a fter all, a human enterprise and must be entered into with humility (as well as confidence!). To conceive of God is to conceive of intangible reality in and through our tangible experience, and the language ap p ro p r ia te to such mediation is clearly that of metaphor. We think and speak of God in terms of the common aspects of our everyday lives. Even the authors of Scripture were limited in this way. They nowhere speak of God "literally," that is in language other than human language, since they are speaking of or to a reality that at least in some respects transcends human experience. This brings us to the notion of mystery. For traditional o rthodox theology, along with nearly every other form of religion, considers the ultimate nature of God, or divine reality, to beyond our full grasp. Divinity is not beyond us in the way the an swe r to a p ro b lem in h ig h e r mathematics is, but rather in the way that the depth of human loyalty will always be b ey o n d th e u n d e r s ta n d in g o f an intelligent dog. "We see through a glass, darkly." Now the point of all this is to focus the fact that however we relate to God, we relate out of o ur own human experience (anthropomorphically). Thus all our ways of conceiving of divinity, male or female or neither, are equally limited. To speak of God as Father or as Mother (or as strong tower, good shepherd, or friend) is to speak metaphorically of mystery. At the same time, we must and can acknowledge that this limitation is also the source o f great richness of meaning when we conceive of God. For it is only by weaving the intangible in and through the tangible features of our everyday life that we become aware o f the patterns of divine activity and presence in human existence. Thus we should seek to multiply our metaphors of God in as many ways as proves fruitful for a fuller and deeper understanding thereof. In conclusion, it should be clear by now that I am not advocating the replacement of "God the Father" with "God the Mother." One sideness is one sideness, regardless of gender. Nor am I suggesting th a t we set aside all anthropomorphic ways of speaking of God. Metaphor about mystery is as necessary as it is confming. What I am urging is a more thorough exploration of all dimensions of human experience in order to discover increasingly rich and fruitful modes through which to conceive of and relate t o 'divinity. What better way to begin than with that dimension of h um a n n e s s emb o died in physical birthing and nurturing. What better way to begin th an by affirming and celebrating the Motherhood of God!

Thursday, October 31, th a t the
College has entered into an installment
agreement with the Parish of St.
Vincent de Paul for a 2.9 acre section
of the Vincentian grounds. Properties
included in the agreement are the 4200

house and the 16,000 sq. ft. Fr. Charles

architects along with a special
committee of CSR's Board of Trustees
will look at various alternatives for the

Father Leo O'Brien, pastor of The
Church of Saint Vincent de Paul,
stated, "This agreement with The

space is expected to take several

D 'Attilio Runs for Local Office
— Towers
The College has been fortunate enough
to benefit from the knowledge and
enthusiasm of Mike D 'Attilio for the past
thirteen years, and his concern for the
students has been demonstrated many
times over in that time period. He has
helped to make our years here more
productive and enjoyable through such
services as the ministry, the career center,
the psychological and health services,
and athletics and activities. Being Dean
of Students has not prevented Mr.
D'Attilio from branching out in new and
exciting directions, however, and he is
presently running for the public office of
Alderman for Ward 13.
Assuming active and influential roles is
not uncommon for our Dean. As well as
being a devoted husband and father, he is
a past president of the Manning Boulevard
Neighborhood Association, the
president elect of his state professional
association, a church school teacher, and
a member of the Religious Education
Council. An inspection of his promotional
pamphlet will give an even more in-depth
view of his many activities and
accomplishments. The pamphlet also
lists some o f Mr. D 'Attilio's major objectives
if he is elected. One important goal is
to establish a ward-wide Advisory Board
to ameliorate deficits in communication.
A periodic newsletter to all residents will
help to keep them informed. Crime
prevention and neighborhood watch
programs will be encouraged by Mr.
D 'Attilio, and the Tricentennial spirit
will be kept alive by close work with
Mayor Whalen. He is also interested in
zoning, fire safety, water fluoridation,
and other area concerns.
Although Mr. D 'Attilio does not

Through the Carondelet Exchange
Program, Saint Rose has acquired a few
new faces this semester from various
college campuses across the United
Saint Rose, in affiliation with five
other Carondelet-sponsored colleges—
from California to the midwest to New
York—is involved in a student exchange
program. It is designed to allow a student
to spend up to two semesters studying in
different college settings.
The colleges that participate in the
program, sponsored by the Sisters of St.
Joseph of Carondelet, are Avila College
in Kansas City, MO, Fontbonne College
in St. Louis, MO, The College of St.
Catherine and St. Mary's Junior College
in Minneapolis, MN, Mt. St. Mary's
College in Los Angeles, CA, and The
College of Saint Rose.
G e r r i ly n S c h ie rm a n , a J u n i o r
accounting major, has come to St. Rose
because she has desired to see New York
fo r many years. She fo u n d the
Carondelet program the perfect way to
realize her dreams. Chuckling, Gerri said
the real reason she came was because she
"didn't want to spend another winter in
Minnesota!" She was also attracted by
the wide variety of business courses that
would be available to her.
Even though the student population at
St. Rose is larger than St. Catherine's,
CSR seems smaller to Gerri than her
home campus. "I feel closer to people
here. 1 have a wider variety of friends here
than at St. Kate's," she said.
Also from St. Catherine's, Amy
Brandenburg, a Senior majoring in
Telecommunications, has come to
A lb a n y b e c a u s e , she k new th e
opportunity was there and, she reasons,
"If I didn't do it, 1 would have regretted
it." Amy feels the exchange is "a
wonderful opportunity in which 1 have
had to learn to be totally different."
Accustomed to an all-women's college
and the larger city of Minneapolis, Amy
has discovered the smaller city, the
tighter community of students to be
challenging. But, with enthusiasm, Amy
said, "If 1 can make it here, I can make it

"anticipate winning," he hopes that they
"will pull some votes." It is his wish that
his ideas will be implemented whether he
is voted in or not. D 'Attilio believes that
in cumb en t A ld e rman R o b e r t Van
Amburgh "has done a good jo b ," but it is
his belief that the people of Albany are
entitled to a choice, and his Republican
ticket will give them that choice. Giving
people an option is not his only reason for
running. The campaign has been a
wonderful learning experience for
himself and the eight students working
with him. Mainly, D 'Attilio wants to
"make an impact." What better way to do
that than in a public office position.
"To be effective you need variety," says
D'Attilio. If this statement is correct then
he is one of the most effective men on
campOs. He lives by a self-developed
motto: P.I.E.—Positive, Involved, and
Enthusiastic. He laughingly states that
"everyone needs a piece of the P.I .E." I
happen to agree with Mike D 'Attilio;
everyone does need a piece of the P.I.E.,
and by observing our Dean we can all be
on our way.

In response to higher home prices nationwide, real estate investors are planning to reduce their purchase volumes in the next 12 months and hold their rental properties for at least five years. The trends are part of a report commissioned by MemphisInvest and Premier Property Management Group that followed up on an August 2012 survey of the same nature. In the August survey, only 30 percent of investors planned to buy fewer properties in the next 12 months than they had the previous year; the more recent report indicates that nearly half (48 percent) of all investors plan to purchase fewer properties and only 20 percent plan to increase purchase volumes[1]. 10 months ago, 39 percent of investors planned to increase purchasing volumes.
While this might sound like bad news for the housing market at first, the trend actually indicates that investors are shifting their focus in real estate to "realize the benefits of rising rents and low vacancy rates," said Chris Clothier, aMemphisInvest and Premier Property Management Group partner. "Cash flow is much more important than appreciation," he added. Clothier also noted that many investors have "a perception that the best time to buy is gone," perhaps because "there are fewer homes to purchase [and] they have competition from larger buying groups"[2]. Huge investment firms like the Blackstone Group (BX) are spending billions of dollars to on tens of thousands of properties in order to create new asset classes for their investors, thus driving up housing prices and creating a situation in which many investors believe the best option is to buy good properties and hold them as rentals for cash flow and, hopefully, appreciation.
Are you changing your real estate investing strategies as home prices rise and the inventory shrinks (at least temporarily)? Do you believe that the time to buy property in bulk has passed?

I hate clutter. Mess really does stress me out! I love the house to be tidy and things to be away. A few years ago we had lots of built in cupboards put in our house which is great in a way because we have lots of storage. The trouble with having lots of storage is that is is more tempting to pop things in the cupboard rather than getting rid of the things that we no longer want or need.
Research published in the Journal of Neuroscience concluded that if you want to focus well, be effective at processing information,be less irritable, more productive, and distracted less often then clearing the clutter will help.
When I visit the 'tip' it gives me a really uneasy feeling. When I see ironing boards, clothes horses, paint containers, glass, building materials, children toys, and old electrical items all piled up I realise just how wasteful we are. It seems awful that we take all our rubbish for someone else to get rid of. In some ways it seems selfish and I don't like it when I am party to it. So I try to look for alternatives.
Recycling helps and I always try to put everything I can in the recycling bin rather than the rubbish. Even this has limits though.
Yesterday we had a charity bag through the door. It was from the air ambulance charity and they were asking for donations. They will take clothes and bric a brac from outside your house so it is a really easy way to oust some clutter! Yesterday in our office we had a charity auction where people brought in their unwanted items and others paid a small amount for things that they wanted. This too was to raise money for charity. From brand new jeans that had their tags on to unopened boxes of herbal tea, all sorts of things were up for grabs! So getting rid of our unwanted items doesn't need to leave us feeling bad, it can be fun and we can be giving to a good cause. An all round winner!
When I have a clear our it certainly makes me more mindful when I then go shopping. I have more clarity of mind in terms of what I buy. Before I take something to the checkout I double check with myself whether I really need it. Last time a charity bag came I put in it lots of my scarfs, some of them were lovely but I just didn't wear them all. When I was shopping the other day I picked up a new scarf because I loved the colour. Before I got to the till I checked myself and told myself I didn't need it. Looking back I am sure this was the right decision and I feel glad that I noticed before it was too late!
So making good decisions when we clear out our clutter has so many benefits. It's an all round winner. The trouble is it can seem like a huge task and sometimes that can put us off getting on with it. Here are some top tips for getting started…
1) Start small. Making the task manageable really is key. So rather than picking a room to start on pick a particular cupboard or drawer.
2) Get everything out and decide whether you want it or need it. It might help to think about the last time you used it. With clothes I generally think if I haven't worn them for the last year then I probably should let it go.
3)Put the things you decide to keep neatly back into the drawer or cupboard. This will give you a real sense of satisfaction which will leave you inspired to carry on in your mission to clear out.
4)Separate the things you are clearing out into piles. Things that are worth giving to others and things that really are rubbish.
5) Take the items you are giving away to an appreciative recipient. Make sure they want the items. Pushing them on to someone else won't make you feel good. If you take them to a charity shop make sure you fill in the Gift Aid form so that they get the full benefit.
6) Enjoy the extra space you have created in your room… and your mind!
For more top tips to make your lifestyle more mindful come on a Revitalise Day. Mindfulness is a way of life and it makes a huge difference to everything we do. The sooner you start the sooner you will feel the improvements.

Paperless electronic voting machines used throughout the Washington region and much of the country "cannot be made secure," according to draft recommendations issued this week by a federal agency that advises the U.S. Election Assistance Commission.
The assessment by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, one of the government's premier research centers, is the most sweeping condemnation of such voting systems by a federal agency.
In a report hailed by critics of electronic voting, NIST said that voting systems should allow election officials to recount ballots independently from a voting machine's software. The recommendations endorse "optical-scan" systems in which voters mark paper ballots that are read by a computer and electronic systems that print a paper summary of each ballot, which voters review and elections officials save for recounts.

About Ali B
A Dutch rapper of Moroccan descent, Ali B. (real name: Ali Bouali, born October 16 of 1981) actually lost in a hip-hop/R&B contest for the Grote Prijs von Nederland, but was talented enough to win a deal with Warner anyway. His debut single for the major label, "Waar Gaat Dit Heen?" was a number two hit, and his live performances kept him in the public spotlight. He worked with a number of famous American rap artists, including RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan. He also donated a great deal of time and energy to more philanthropic efforts, such as the Tsunami disaster and Amnesty International.

My Former Band Cataloged in The Chicago Music Scene Book
My Vaudeville-meets-rock band Huge Hart gets a little ink in November with the release of The Chicago Music Scene by Dean Milano. They're doing book signings, concerts and stuff back in the Old Country pegged to the book's Nov. 7 release date.
Another of my bands, The ODD, was invited to be part of the You Weren't There documentary covering Chicago's punk scene, except I'm a moron and never got around to sending the filmmakers archival video of the band.
To honor the film's completion, there's going to be a reunion concert November 24 at Chicago's Portage Theater with musicians I used to play clubs with who called themselves Tutu and the Pirates. Lead singer's stage name: Lil' Richie Speck.

text: While Fred Durst's name triggers automatic sniggering, it turns out he's not a God-awful director. His second film—the doggedly uninspiring sports movie The Longshots—died a quick death; meanwhile, his debut, The Education of Charlie Banks, is just hitting theaters. If it's a failure, at least it's a laudable one instead of cynically by-the-numbers. In early-'70s New York, young Charlie (Jesse Eisenberg) watches acquaintance Mick (Jason Ritter) nearly beat two guys to death over nothing. Charlie decides to testify against Mick, then changes his mind for fear of alienating mutual friend Danny (Chris Marquette). At college, Danny and Charlie's tranquil paradise—books and girls, with Charlie coming into his gawky, charming own—is interrupted when Mick shows up, ostensibly just to visit. Thankfully, Peter Elkoff's script isn't interested in Charlie and Mick playing cat-and-mouse; instead, Mick's adopted by local prep Leo (Sebastian Stan, doing a fantastic if chronologically misplaced Bret Easton Ellis drunken preppie) and has a second chance at turning his life around. Durst and Elkoff deliver a nuanced scenario of class assimilation and resentment, then flub the ending, leaning too heavily on conspicuous evocations of The Great Gatsby and Raging Bull.
