JUSTIN A. HINKLEY The Enquirer
ATHENS — A half-dozen ghosts of Athens’ past will speak from beyond the grave on Saturday, not to frighten, but to educate and promote the rural village’s historic
charm. The second annual Athens Tombstone Tour kicks off Saturday, an event that features Athens Historical Society members dressed up as significant people from Athens’ past, telling the stories of the villages’ historical figures next to said figures’ graves. “We try to give as much information as we can, with all of our volunteers, to everyone who’s coming,” said Deb Pontoni, a historical society member and an organizer of the event. “It’s really quite exciting.” Two tours happen at 5 and 7 p.m. Saturday in Burr Oak Cemetery, on Burr Oak Street, near downtown Athens. Featured in this year’s tour are: Civil War veteran Luther Mason, who owned a flour mill that once powered Athens’ electricity; Jonathan Guernsey, a successful 19th-century farmer who donated pieces of land that eventually became the village of Athens; Lester Swartz, who played Athens baseball at the turn of the 20th century and was a longtime Athens teach-
er; El Dorado and Ada Greenfield, who owned a hardware and grocery store in downtown Athens and who helped bring a railroad to the village; Adolphus Waterman, who was among the first Athens residents and who also helped bring the railroad to town; and Domenick Pontoni, who came to the U.S. from Italy and started Nottawa Gardens, which eventually became the House of Raeford chicken processing plant and was long one of Athens’ largest employers. The purpose of the event, the organizer said, is three-fold. The historical society started the event last year, modeled after a similar event in Marshall, as a fundraiser for the society’s historical house, which Pontoni says is “full of memorabilia that goes from the beginning of Athens.” “We’re just trying to keep the house afloat,” Pontoni said. As well, the event is meant to teach Athens’ youth that important people have come from Athens, lived in Athens, and done significant things. “Part of our mission is to raise awareness of the people who have lived here to our youth so they’ll come back
IF YOU GO " WHAT: Athens Historical Society’s second annual
“Tombstone Tour.” " WHEN: 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday; arrive 15 to
30 minutes before your show time. " WHERE: Burr Oak Cemetery, off Burr Oak Street,
Athens. " ADMISSION: $5. " INFO: Bring a flashlight to tour Burr Oak Cemetery and learn about residents of Athens’ past from actors in full historical dress. The event is not scary. Tickets are available at Hurst’s Family Market, The Copper Kettle or The Office Lounge and Restaurant in downtown Athens. Call Judi Henckel at 729-9517, Cle Bauer at 729-5269 or Ray Pontoni at 275-5000 for more information.
home,” Pontoni said. Lastly, the event aims to tell the greater community that Athens — struggling economically over the past decade and working on its community development efforts the past several years — is worth a visit. “Things like this, we’re hoping people will realize how important, how valid Athens is,” Pontoni said. “We’re not to be overlooked.” Justin A.

Review: Hornby-Folds collaboration clicks STEVEN WINE Associated Press
Ben Folds and Nick Hornby, “Lonely Avenue” (Nonesuch) : “Belinda” is a ballad about a hasbeen singer on the nostalgia circuit who each night performs his one hit, a love song written about a woman he later lost and now misses, which makes reprising his golden oldie for singa-long crowds a bizarre form of public torture. Such is the richness of a three-verse plot when a
novelist turns lyricist. Nick Hornby (“High Fidelity,” “About a Boy”) wrote the words for the 11 songs on “Lonely Avenue,” and Ben Folds set them to music. The collaboration clicks: There’s a depth to the lyrics rare in pop songs, and they inspire topnotch work from the everinventive Folds. Hornby finds fresh ways to approach his topics, such as on “Belinda,” which is both funny and sad. He writes
about divorce from the perspective of the couple’s 9-year-old daughter on “Claire’s Ninth,” and shows sympathy for Bristol Palin’s ex in “Levi Johnston’s Blues.” Hornby’s lyrics are smart, profane, violent, poignant, hilarious and absolutely true. Folds pairs them with a wide range of sounds and plenty of catchy melodies. On “From Above” he sings about serendipity to a finger-snapping dance beat, while “Levi
Johnston’s Blues” is built on clattering percussion and superb arranger Paul Buckmaster’s grinding strings. As for “Belinda,” the coda rocks like the Ben Folds Five. CHECK THIS OUT: “Saskia Hamilton” deserves a Grammy for

‘Strawberry fields’ for Jimmy Hansen Bush’s “Glycerine” was playing when I walked into the gym at Athens High S chool on Friday for Jimmy Hansen’s visitation service. Later, they played Ozzy Osbourne. These were songs that Jimmy — the 2003 Athens graduate and U.S . Air Force senior airman who died S ept. 15 in Iraq — liked. These were tunes that brought him there into the room with the dozens and dozens of people who U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Jimmy Hansen in this undated Facebook profile. PHOTO SU BMITTED.
walked the hard, sad walk beneath that enormous American flag, past Jimmy’s remains and into the still-frozen arms of his parents, Rich and
Emily Hansen, and his older brother, Rich Hansen Jr. Based on the songs playing Friday at Athens High S chool, I think Jimmy and I would have gotten along. I didn’t know Jimmy, but I know his dad pretty well. He was on the Athens school board a while back when I covered board meetings for the Enquirer. I also know Judi Henckel, one of Jimmy’s

teachers and a longtime friend of his parents, very well. Talking to them about Jimmy, the man that he was — kind, gentle, somewhat shy, athletic, dedicated — becomes clearer. Their eyes, happy with memories but also full of hurt, will always be part of me. And those eyes said even more about Jimmy than his loved ones’ stories

That town has their bickering, but when something comes up, they pull together. When I drove down there S ept. 16 to talk to people about the airman, I could feel the whole town sagging with the news. Everything was slower and everyone spoke softer. There seemed to be no music. When I drove down there S ept. 18, the day 500 or so people lined M-66 to welcome Rich and Emily home from claiming Jimmy’s body in Delaware, the whole town seemed thick with strength, like 500 parents who wipe away their own tears and open their arms for a child in hurt. “The tS ar-S pangled Banner” played and 500 people were silent. There are no songs that can tell this story just right or any songs that can make things better for Rich, Emily, Rich Jr., Judi or any of the dozens of others who called Se nior Airman James Hansen “little Jimmy.” I started this column with the idea that I might offer some consoling ideas through song, but I realized I can’t. All I can say is that now, every time I hear “Glycerine,” I will picture Rich Hansen’s eyes and feel his hand in mine, and I will think of Jimmy and I will sing the words, “We live in a wheel, where everyone steals, but when we rise, it’s like strawberry fields.” And I will know that Jimmy rose, and I will thank him.

With “Halo: Reach” selling over $200 million in its first day of sales, Microsoft has raised the bar for 2010 and beyond. Fans bought this Xbox 360 exclusive since the “Halo” brand is known for its quality as a first-person shooter. I can safely say that any die-hard follower of the series will enjoy “Reach” while newer players should also give it a go. Even though “Reach” is the fifth game under the “Halo” saga, the singleplayer campaign begins before the 2001 “Halo: Combat Evolved” original Xbox game. You are a “Spartan” super-soldier with abilities that make you a one-man-army against the waves of deadly aliens called the “Covenant.” You will use a plethora of weapons, power-ups, vehicles and even a spacecraft to fight against overwhelming odds. “Halo: Reach” will keep loyal fans happy by stick-

ing with a winning formula. You will fight massive battles trying to gain position against an incredibly smart alien enemy. You will have to plan your attack since “Reach” does a very good job trying to outwit you in your battle strategy. Happily, I noticed that changing my style of combat dynamically shifted the battle on the ground and no two trips through the same mission felt repetitive. Developer Bungie needs to be commended for keeping the single-player game fresh during the hours I played it. As in other “Halo”
games, you will get accustomed to switching weapons constantly. Do not get used to a favorite firearm since bullets go quickly. Luckily, killed aliens will leave their weapon behind. You have a shield that regenerates when not taking damage, but avoiding fire is more difficult than it seems. There was a real feeling of dread when my radar lit with red targets and I knew I was flanked and needed to shoot my way out of a tight situation. While the single-player campaign is solid and fills in the back-story of the “Halo” trilogy, the multiplayer is strong and well worth the $59.99 price alone.

Battles earn you experience credits, which give you higher ranks and the ability to customize your soldier. Naming every mode and option is a task in itself since “Reach’s” strength is its customization. Playing with your friends over “Xbox Live” or against strangers is a joy as there is a lot of depth for the hardcore gamer. For the creative types,
the “Forge” tool allows you to make your own level. More intuitive than before, you can easily create or modify levels for you and your friends to enjoy. All in all, “Halo: Reach” is the flagship game for Xbox 360 fans and players who enjoy first-person shooters. Finding friends to play or random gamers online is simple and rewarding. I found it a little
too easy losing night to this game as I did with “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2” — and that is no small compliment. Time will tell if “Reach” has the strength to battle against the next “Call of Duty” game “Black Ops” due out this November. Either way, Xbox 360 owners will win by having the best shooters for this holiday season.

What makes the perfect apple? that. It’s juicier, somewhat, and it has a slightly different
ANDY FITZPATRICK The Enquirer
Michigan may not be the Apple State, but it is a good place to be an apple-lover. At Gull Meadow Farms in Richland, the W endzel family provides about 20 different types of apples from about 4,000 trees. “There’s everything from sweet to tart, to green, to yellow, to early, to late,” owner David W endzel said. “There’s a lot of Honeycrisp. A lot of people like

taste.” W endzel said the key to a good apple is sunlight; short trees with long branches allow the apples on them to get more sunlight and develop a better taste. “The ones inside the tree that don’t get the sunlight so much don’t get as sweet as the ones on the outside,” he said. Denise Donohue, executive director of the Lansing-based Michigan Apple Committee, said temperatures this summer have been good for apple production. “W e had many days that were consistently in the 80-degree range and that’s fabulous,” she said. “80 degrees creates just a little bit of stress that is good for sugar production.” Too much heat, she said, can cause problems, though. Around 90 degrees, many plants in Michigan stop growing. If conditions get too cold, frost can take out an apple tree. “On the business side, we are down 20 to 25 percent because of the frost,” Donohue said. “W e didn’t want to flower early and we did. Then we had the normal frost that you would expect in late April, early May, and it was devastating.” W endzel said his farm escaped a pears; 12147 Corey Lake Road, T hree Rivers; 269-2445690.

bad year, even if the season started about two weeks early. “Once you’re early in the spring, it doesn’t matter what happens,” W enzel said. “If it was cool in the summer, you’re still going to be two weeks early.” A complex fruit, the apple is susceptible to several dangers outside of temperature. Hail, for example, is a concern among apple growers suffering storms along Michigan’s west coast. “Two minutes of hail can put you right down the drain,” Donohue said. That’s because even small hail can
bruise an apple in such a way that it’s not visible until after it gets to market, where shoppers are notoriously sharp-eyed. “Think about having to bring perfection to the marketplace every day of the week,” she said. W hen the perfect apple is ripe – when the carbohydrates within the fruit break down into simple sugars, and the sunlight reacts to the sugar to produce the perfect red color – the August to Halloween season is worth all the work for growers. In addition to Honeycrisps, W endzel said McIntosh and Mutsu apples sell fast. In the Gull Meadow Farms Apple Barn and Bakery, gleaming red and yellow orbs join their caramel-covered brethren on the shelves next to pumpkins, doughnuts and cider. It’s likely a vision known across the country, where apple pie is the standard symbol of Americana. Not bad for a fruit that originated in China. “A very, very different climate, in terms of mountains,” Donohue said. “And they’ve been greatly hybridized.” In fact, the Honeycrisp was born in a research center at the University of Minnesota. “Canada, of course, is a major producer of apples,” Donohue said. “W e’re growing them commercially in Michigan in about 26 counties I’m aware of.” Andy Fitzpatrick can be reached at 6 9 6-069 7 or afitzpatrick@gannett.com.

Honeycrisp: A colorful blend of red and yellow, this apple is sweet with a crispy bite. It’s good for fresh eating and in salads.
McIntosh: An extremely juicy, round apple with a light tartness. It’s used well in applesauce and pie.
Empire: A great snacking apple that’s also used in baking and making caramel apples. The Empire has a firm texture.
Jonathan: A spicy, juicy apple well-adapted to Michigan’s climate.
Red Delicious: The classic apple known for its five bottom bumps, the Red Delicious has a full flavor and is crisp to the bite.
