Teaching By example

Two-time ACM “Male Vocalist Of The Year” Jason Aldean continues his “Burn It Down” tour with a stop at The Pavilion at Montage Mountain on Thursday, Sept. 10, with special guests Cole Swindell, Tyler Farr and Dee Jay Silver.

The certified platinum single “Burnin’ It Down” became the fastest selling country single last year, holding the No. 1 position on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart for nine weeks. The track serves as the lead single off Aldean’s recently sixth studio album, Old Boots, New Dirt, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s all-genre Top 200 chart, breaking the record for both first-day and firstweek streams ever by a country album on Spotify.

Aldean’s tour follows a first leg which saw him play stadium dates, in addition to sold-out shows in the country’s biggest amphitheaters and arenas.

Tickets are available at Ticketmaster.com, the box office at Montage Mountain, any ticketmaster locations or by phone at 800-745-3000.

/MUSIC

SOUNDS

ART ROCK REVISITED SUN KIL MOON — Universal Themes THE GOOD: Sun Kil Moon (a once proper band that has slowly morphed into singer/songwriter Mark Kozelek and some guest musicians) comes back with an intimate seventh.

THE BAD: The word “laborious” definitely applies.

THE NITTY GRITTY: We get eight songs in 70 minutes; autobiographical vignettes about Kozelek’s friends, life on the road, childhood memories, and recent experiences on an Italian film set. The guy sings of things like growing up in Ohio, gardening in his back yard, hanging out with Jane Fonda in a hotel lobby and how no-carb diets are boring.

It’s really only engaging ONCE as you find yourself wondering how some of these stories will turn out in the end. After finding out though, there’s no reason to relive any of it. That’s also because Kozelek kind of rambles through the entire set. His melodies are never fully formed. And even when he takes the music in some unexpected progressive territories beyond just the acoustic, these “jams” lose their spark after awhile.

BUY IT?: Maybe not.

FAITH NO MORE — Sol Invictus THE GOOD: California alt-rock legends Faith No More reform and give us their first record in almost two decades.

THE BAD: Not necessarily “bad,” but the band will probably never top 1992’s Angel Dust.

However, Sol Invictus fits in comfortably with the rest of their catalog while not simply repeating past triumphs.

THE NITTY GRITTY: It’s as if these guys never left. Songs are augmented with plenty of thrashing drums and guitar crunch, Roddy Bottum is still all about those grand piano flourishes cutting through the din, and Mike Patton’s pipes still resonate as strongly as ever.

In typical FNM fashion, Invictus is also a record of varying tempos, volumes and moods. The title

24 S e p t e m b e r 1 0 , 2 0 1 5 TS_CNG/EC_DC/PAGES [E24] | 09/09/15

cut is the opening eerie piece that draws you in before the all-on assault of the hyper and angry “Superhero.” “Motherfu$%er” brings on a bout of aggressive funk before the shimmering and slightly sedate “From the Dead” rounds out the varied proceedings.

BUY IT?: Surely. Old guys usually aren’t this fierce.

TAME IMPALA — Currents THE GOOD: Australia’s Kevin Parker writes, performs, records and produces his third Tame Impala epic.

THE BAD: Just like the first two brilliant TI outings, Currents is a modern psychedelic triumph.

However, listeners must embrace a big stylistic shift. Fuzzy guitars and progressive sounds take a back seat to swirling synths and dance elements (and even some blue-eyed soul). Not “bad” but be prepared.

THE NITTY GRITTY: Parker thought that it would be cool to hear Tame Impala blasting in clubs. So he set about creating some underground dance floor anthems. And while the majority of these tracks would need a slight “remix” to achieve that goal, the possibilities are definitely here.

Booming tracks like “Eventually” and “The Less I Know, the Better” also find Parker embracing more traditional song structures, making Currents his most accessible set to date as well. Long-time enthusiasts shouldn’t fret though. We still get an inspired drifting all-encompassing headphones experience; Parker’s stuff remaining most effective when swallowed in sprawling album-size doses.

BUY IT?: You must.

Beer, Bratwurst, Music, wiener Dog races anD so Much More at Mohegan sun Pocono

T

he tents are raised and the kegs are full — it’s time for the fifth PA Oktoberfest at Mohegan Sun Pocono. The three-day festival kicks off Friday, Sept. 11, at 4:30 p.m.

Traditional keg tappings will occur around the festival through 6:30 p.m. to offer visitors a chance to start the festival in style at the area’s most popular celebration of German culture, music, food and — of course — beer.

“When this thing started five years ago, we weren’t really sure how it was going to take off or how well-received it would be,” said festival coordinator Tim Holmes. “Obviously, people have come to really enjoy the celebration and it truly has become a tradition. We’re getting to the point where people just mark it on the calendar and look forward to doing it, so we’re excited about that.”

The festival has become known for several hallmarks and returning favorites, but Holmes said organizers want to keep things fresh.

“Each year we try to enhance things a little bit, as well as holding onto the favorites that everybody loves,” he said. “There are the wiener dog races and the extraordinary entertainment we bring in from Germany, including German singer Romy.

We’re adding a couple new things this year to make it even cooler.”

PA Oktoberfest continues Saturday and hits the ground running, literally, at 11 a.m.

“The Lederhosen 5k race is going to be really awesome — the starting line will be right by the main tent, right on the track where the horse racing ends,” said Holmes. “The first leg of it will be the same direction as the horses, counter-clockwise around the track. When you get to the back side of the track by the paddock, we’re going to branch off into the trails behind the casino. It’s really cool back there, it’s seldom-used so it’s cool that we can utilize it. Mohegan Sun is happy to be able to use that part of the property.”

Holmes said organizers decided to add the race to embrace the expanding running culture in the 570 and increase the variety of events at PA Oktoberfest.

“Mud runs and warrior dashes and those types of events have become very popular, but this won’t be as intense,” he said. “The track is not real heavy mud. It’s pretty compact, even if it’s raining. Going off into the woods will be a fun thing on the trails.

The beauty of it is that it starts at 11 a.m. Saturday,

and as you finish, you’re going to be running right into our beer tent. It’s a perfect way to end.

We’ve got beer, we’ve got brats, German music playing and much more! We’re encouraging people to get into the spirit. The best outfit will win an award, we also have the age groups sorted.

We’re anticipating at least a couple hundred runners based on preregistration.”

The Lederhosen 5k owes some of its origin to another hallmark of PA Oktoberfest.

“We got the idea last year when we did the first Crystal Lederhosen Homebrewing Competition,” said Holmes. “That’s in its second year and we give the awards on Sunday — but it brought a few hundred extra people who were there to show off and see how they did on their homebrewing. It’s now become the definitive homebrewing competition in northeastern Pennsylvania. The spirit of competition is strong at PA Oktoberfest, so it was great to expand into new areas.”

Indeed, the human runners are only the beginning — most will cross the finish line just before the first wiener dog race kicks off at noon on Saturday.

The race’s namesake competition will feature home-brewed beer from entrants local and nationwide. Sean Wolfe, president of the Scranton Brewer’s Guild, said the Crystal Lederhosen Homebrew Competition has entered a new level for 2015.

“Last year we were a little bit rushed because we did the judging at the festival,” he said. “This year we did it the week before — some of the feedback was that the judges wanted a little more time to devote to judging. We had to start last year at nine in the morning, which is a little on the early side to be drinking beer, even for us professionals.”

Though Crystal Lederhosen organizers planned carefully to prepare for this year’s competition, there were still unforeseen hiccups.

“We opted to have the judging off-site and Cooper’s in Scranton was kind enough offer to host us,” said Wolfe. “But then the huge fire at Sandone Tire happened, which was crazy. Luckily, we were able to come up with another venue, but it was a hairy experience for a little while there.”

Wolfe said the joint effort between the Scranton

Brewer’s Guild and Wyoming Valley Homebrewing helps create a competition that brings talent and skill from around the region and beyond.

“We had another strong showing this year, 160 entries came in from as far away as Iowa, Florida, the Dakotas, California,” he said. “This year we had seven recognized and certified judges from the Beer Judge Certification Program, they came out to help judge the beers and give extra training. It’s getting better and better every year.”

Awards for the Crystal Lederhosen will be handed out live on Sunday, Sept. 13, at 1 p.m. In addition to the traditional categories, Wolfe said organizers added a new twist.

“There’s another competition leg called the Champion’s Cup, where the best of show winner from last year got to pick a specialty ingredient,” he said. “It’s kind of like Iron Chef for homebrewers.”

From foot races to dog races to beer tasting, the competitive spirit is strong at PA Oktoberfest — and some contestants will have a chance to prove it at a national level.

“The Strong Arm stein hoisting competition is back, and this year Sam Adams is sponsoring it,” said Holmes. “For the last two weeks, they’ve been in 14 local bars and restaurants — the best finishers all got tickets to compete at PA Oktoberfest. Whoever is the grand champion this weekend may have a chance to get on Jimmy Kimmel Live.”

From the stage at Mohegan Sun to the national arena, whoever holds a one liter stein the longest will prove themselves to be one of the strongest in the country.

“It’s part of a national competition. The Sam Adams folks will be on hand like they will be at other competitions across the country,” said Holmes.

“The guys last year held on pretty long, so I think we have some good local competition who can hang.

It’s going to be exciting to see if they can make it to Jimmy Kimmel.”

PA Oktoberfest continues to be one of the area’s premiere events, and has become a fixture on the fall calendar. Holmes said the organizers try to expand the options to accommodate all visitors.

“Last year we had about 50 or 60 beers, this year we’re in the 70 range, which is going to be awesome,” he said. “One new local favorite is Not Your Father’s Root Beer spiced ale — that will be in one of our tents. Banko Beverage has a bunch of new brands they’re bringing in, and it’s not just Oktoberfest beers. We have IPAs, porters, pumpkin, ciders — anything you could possibly want, we’ll have. We also have a full bar, because after the first year we realized some people still wanted to have a cocktail or wine, or anything else they might want.

We have a little of everything for everybody.”

Naturally, guests will have plenty of options for food to accompany the range of beverages.

“We’re looking good on the food scene. The Alpine Wurst and Meat House is back for the fifth year.

They’ve got brats and their strudel that everybody loves,” said Holmes. “We’ve also got a couple cool BBQ guys, because that’s always a huge hit. What the Fork Truck is coming back, they had a great year last year and I know they’re excited to come back.

It’s just a great lineup of food, a great mix of beer.”

As the festival has matured, Holmes said organizers continue to look for ways to give back to the fans. This year, tickets are cheaper and come with added value.

“In celebration of our five years, the admission is only $5 at the door — in previous years it had been $6, but we’re bringing it down, and selling buyone-get-one at 27 locations, even on the weekend,” he said. “But the real bonus is everyone who walks through the door is going to get a $10 free slot play voucher. You’re paying five bucks to get in and getting 10 bucks back, it’s almost like you can’t afford not to go!”

As guests enjoy the festival, Holmes said PA Oktoberfest wants to make sure everyone arrives home safely.

“We have our safe ride home option with taxis on hand, and this year we’re partnering with Uber,” he said. “Our promo code is ‘okto’ and you’ll save on the fare. You can get a ride down and a ride back if you’d like. Or if someone drives down and decides they’re having a little too much fun, they can get a ride home safely.”

For brewers, beer lovers and food fans alike, PA Oktoberfest is sure to delight visitors.

“It’s the greatest Oktoberfest in the land,” said Wolfe. “I’m just excited for another fantastic Oktoberfest, I’m excited to be involved in an Oktoberfest celebration that takes it more seriously than just drinking beer. The festival’s support of the Crystal Lederhosen competition and other events like the wiener dog races make it feel like a real Oktoberfest in Germany, instead of just another party with beer at it. They make it a whole weekend celebration of everything that is German.”

SCREENS

MOVIE TIMES: THE570.COM

by Jeff Boam

OPENING THIS WEEK The Visit Olivia DeJonge, Ed Oxenbould In this PG-13-rated horror flick from M. Night Shyamalan, a single mother finds that things in her family’s life go very wrong after her two young children visit their grandparents. The Plus: The genre. Some otherworldly thrillers have a knack for becoming surprise hits. Last year, Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones, Devils Due and Ouija scared up some amazing box office grosses while recent release Insidious: Chapter 3 banked some decent box office. The Visit comes courtesy of once highly regarded director Shyamalan (Unbreakable, The Village), whose cinematic high points The Sixth Sense and Signs truly made for some blockbuster horror. The Minus: The odds. The trailer doesn’t speak volumes for The Visit, especially given Shyamalan’s recent abysmal track record (Lady in the Water, The Happening, The Last Airbender, After Earth). Even with a low budget, this thriller faces some scary challenges.

The Transporter Refueled Ed Skrein, Loan Chabanol H1/2 — Drive Away Angry Redundant, repetitive and re-diculous despite being Refueled, this unwanted, unnecessary and uninspired Transporter reboot fails to even accomplish the very least expected of it: driving you to distraction. In this PG-13-rated actioner set in the south of France, former special-ops mercenary Frank Martin (Skrein) enters into a game of chess with a femme-fatale (Chabanol) and her three sidekicks who are looking for revenge against a sinister Russian kingpin. If it weren’t for some hard-hitting and explosive action sequences, this go-round would be completely Gone in 60 Seconds from your memory. The script reeks of cliché and recycled storytelling, a vengeful tale with a bank heist and the same person kidnapped twice. It’s not as if this series (2005’s Transporter 2, of which, ranks among the best … barely) ever revved critics’ engines, of course. The difference comes down to star power. Jason Statham put his peddle to the mettle as a cockney tough guy in Guy Ritchie’s Lock, Stock, & Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch before ever putting pedal-to-the-metal in 2002’s Transporter. Newcomer Ed Skrein, however, earnestly tries to convey the same grit and spit but just doesn’t possess the white-hot charisma of the first Frank Martin. So, what does Transporter Refueled fall back on then — the stunts?! A few hair-raising exceptions aside, this franchise never comes within a country mile of the bombastic ballistics of the Fast & Furious flicks. Like recent flop Hitman: Agent 42 (itself a re-boot of 2007’s Hitman), nobody was really clamoring for another go-round of Transporter’s highway hijinks. Hell, even TNT gave up on Transporter: The Series and this is the same network that tried moving ahead with Dallas after J.R. Ewing died. These French co-productions only seem to make money once the overseas box office rolls in. The next time someone thinks to re-boot Transporter, the French should just consider keeping this franchise on their side of the Atalntic.

The Perfect Guy Sanaa Lathan, Michael Ealy In this PG-13-rated thriller, a successful lobbyist (Lathan) jumps into a passionate relationship with a charming stranger (Ealy), only for her exboyfriend (Morris Chestnut) to resurface and blur the line as to whom she should trust and whom she should fear. The Plus: The genre. Urban thrillers targeting the African-American demographic have done quite well at the box (2010’s Obsessed, 2014’s No Good Deed). The Perfect Guy boasts Lathan (The Best Man Holiday), Ealy (About Last Night) and Chestnut (Think Like a Man). The Minus: The competition. Even after three weeks, the faith-based African-American-starring drama War Room still holds an impressive grip on the box office, diving the target audience for this possibly not-so-Perfect thriller.

/ENTERTAINMENT

We Are Your Friends Zac Efron, Wes Bentley HH1/2 — Dub Misstep An OK party awesomely DJ-ed, Zac Efron’s latest drops some block-rocking beats so far as a soundtrack, but misses the mark so far as drama by sampling too many other underdog tales.

In this R-rated drama, aspiring DJ Cole Carter (Efron) finds himself caught between a forbidden romance with the girlfriend (Emily Ratajkowski) of his mentor (Bentley) and the expectations of his friends in his attempts to find the path in life that leads to fame and fortune. You’ve seen similar stories countless times before, just not set in the world of Los Angeles MCs. It spotlights as small (and, sadly, forgettable) a microcosm as arm wrestling in Over the Top or skateboarding in Gleaming the Cube, but such meticulous loving care gets afforded the specific craftsmanship that the flick manages to break even. Zac Efron, long due breakout success of his own following High School Musical and 17 Again, is in fine form but clearly isn’t the star. Once the soundtrack takes over, it’s nearly impossible not to step into the ebb and flow of the beat.

SMALL SCREENS A Walk in the Woods Robert Redford, Nick Nolte HH — A Walk to Forget Boasting a marquee team-up with an entertainment value that proves more sorrier than starrier for filmgoers, A Walk in the Woods offers a near bust of a buddy comedy and little else. In this R-rated comedy, based on the popular book by Bill Bryson, a travel writer (Redford) returns to the U.S. after two decades in England and decides that the best way to connect with his homeland is to hike the Appalachian Trail with one of his oldest friends (Nolte). Despite the snarky but spot-on travel observations offered up by Bryson in his books, the first of his tomes adapted to the big screen pitifully equals something along the lines of Grumpy Old Men Go Camping. The pitiful misadventures presented here spotlight pratfalls more than biting wit, which is a dodgy endeavor considering that the median age of the double bill is 77. That this bill consists of H’Wood legends Robert Redford (The Sting, Out of Africa) and Nick Nolte (North Dallas Forty, 48 Hours) only raises the level of disappointment. Audiences are right to expect much more by way of this comedy just based on their involvement. Even when Redford delivers one of Bryson’s bon mots, it comes out so polished and practiced that it fails to register as a punchline. In fact, the award-winning actor is so studied after 60 years in the film biz that it sounds like he’s reading an audio book — not exchanging dialogue. Director Ken Kwapis (Dunston Checks In, NBC’s The Office) simply plays everything too broadly. Rather than an ace adaptation, the end result of all involved resembles Kook’s Tour, a shameful outing by the remaining Three Stooges toward the end of their lives wherein their waning health sadly provided the hijinks.

No Escape Owen Wilson, Lake Bell HHH — Behind Enemy Lame Despite a narrow world view and thinly developed characters, Owen Wilson’s latest smartly keeps the action moving behind an original and timely story. In this R-rated thriller, an American family (Wilson, Bell) in their new overseas home find themselves caught in the middle of a coup, so they frantically look for a safe escape in an environment where foreigners are being immediately executed. Granted, this script will never win Best Screenplay. The characters emerge as paper dolls, spouting exposition on plane rides and hotel stays before deadly bedlam ensure. Bringing the audience up to speed on the story’s background graciously happens quickly, however. Once the gunplay and killing comes into play, the thrill factor rarely lets up. With tensions rising in certain Asian countries as if they’re on a bus schedule, the whole she-bang seems more than plausible, though the goings-on boast as much one-note resonance as a Fox News headline. The important thing is: Wilson, under appreciated since demonstrating some stellar action chops in Behind Enemy Lines, believably delivers as an everyman pushed to the Straw Dogs limits kind-of-guy. Meanwhile, Lake Bell almost gets relegated to scream queen status but this phenomenal actress exhibits enough kick ass moments of her own to break though the stereotype.

Little matters for these poor souls when Pierce Brosnan hits the screen. This former Bond owns every inch of digital he’s in and more.

While We’re Young (2015) Ben Stiller, Naomi Watts HHH1/2 — Over the Hill of Beans New to DVD, Blu-Ray and downloading: In this R-rated comedy from Noah Baumbach (Margot at the Wedding, Greenberg), a middle-aged couple’s (Stiller, Watts) career and marriage get overturned when a disarming young couple (Adam Driver, Amanda Seyfried) enters their lives. Hitting Generation X right in their Millennials, Noah Baumbach’s latest comedy hilariously asks Y of Middle Age as it winningly straddles the generational divide. Peter Pan never grew up, but — if he did — he hopefully wouldn’t emulate Brooklyn hipsters. Ben Stiller and Naomi Watts, however, hilariously fall into this trap in an on-the-nose film that’s deeper and more convoluted than at first glance. It’s smart if you fall outside of the age pools depicted here and it smarts if you fall within, especially if you’re approaching the big “Four Oh” from either direction. Astute and unsettlingly honest observations get leveled by peers their own age as Stiller and Watts envy the perpetual motion and spontaneity of modern 20-somethings as well as their unbridled passion for vintage items (i.e., “everything that we threw away”). Both of them — young and young at heart — want what the other has, however, which Baumbach makes clear with his usual insightful wit and in-the-moment camerawork. It’s not his best, but doesn’t fall far from the top (The Squid and the Whale, Frances Ha).

Up Close & personal The longevity elixir What’s the secret to a long and happy life?

Who else would know better than Wilkes-Barre native Pauline Spagnola, who turned 100 years old in June. She can answer the age-old question and tell you what the best thing has been since sliced bread, because she was born before it was invented. However, the best thing, in her opinion, was around long before bread was sliced. Spagnola accredits her long life to drinking “a lot of booze” as she told local ABC affiliate WNEP. The video of her answer went viral. Her favorite drink is a local beer, Stegmaier, which is brewed in Wilkes-Barre. Now, thanks to her fame and her fondness of Stegmaier, she will tap a keg of her beloved beer at this weekend’s PA Oktoberfest at Mohegan Sun Pocono.

We had the pleasure of speaking with her and Debbie Taylor, the Golden Living activities director and volunteer coordinator. Spagnola’s smile radiated with kindness as we all talked, and after she answered each question, we laughed at her humor.

Truly she holds the secret to both a cheerful and a lasting life.

Meet Pauline Spagnola ...

How does it feel being famous at 100 years old?

Spagnola: Great! I don’t even feel 100 years old.

Taylor: And you don’t look it either.

Spagnola: Well, thank you.

You credit your longevity to drinking booze?

Spagnola: Yes. I do enjoy drinking beer.

What kind of beer is your favorite?

Spagnola: My absolute favorite is Stegmaier Gold Medal Beer. It makes me happy!

How old were you when you began drinking Stegmaier?

Spagnola: I was about 14. I would sneak it now and then from my parents and drink it alone. It tasted so good.

When you would sneak a beer, would you drink it with friends?

Spagnola: No, just by myself.

Taylor: With friends you’d have to share.

Spagnola: Not only do you get more when you drink alone, but they would squeal on you.

What else will you be doing that day to celebrate Oktoberfest?

Taylor: Afterwards, we’ll be going out to dinner, aren’t we?

Spagnola: Oh, I hope. I bet we’ll get hungry.

Taylor: Oh absolutely. We were just talking about what we might get. Rustic Kitchen has a variety of good food. Pauline’s favorite is chicken, which they have.

Spagnola: I like chicken.

Beer and chicken sound like a good night to me!

Spagnola: Oh I love it!

Did you grow up in the Wilkes-Barre area?

Spagnola: Yes. I grew up right in Wilkes-Barre.

What do you like about Wilkes-Barre?

Spagnola: You can have fun here and Stegmaier is brewed here.

You’re even wearing a Stegmaier shirt!

Spagnola: I guess I’m advertising. I have to or I won’t get any beer. (laughs) Taylor: They [Stegmaier] have been very generous with supplying beer for her. I keep it in my office and she can have one whenever she asks for it. She can have beer at her request. She’s never drank too much here.

Spagnola: No, I don’t get loaded.

Taylor: She has a doctor’s order that she can have it. She’s certainly earned the right to have it. The only thing she takes is a multivitamin, so we don’t have to worry about any interactions with medication. If Pauline wanted one in the morning, we would give it to her.

Spagnola: A beer?

Taylor: Yes. Spagnola: How about a whiskey? I’m just kidding.

Have you seen the video of yourself, Pauline?

Spagnola: Yes. Taylor: I showed her the video that went viral.

Remember Pauline, when I showed you the video that went all over the world? She was a guest on the Jonathon Brandmeier show, which is out of Chicago.

He does a live radio talk show. Remember when you were on the phone with Jonathon Brandmeier? What did you tell him at the end?

Spagnola: I want to go on The Ellen DeGeneres Show!

What did you do for a living?

Spagnola: I did a little bit of everything.

Taylor: You were a waitress and a barmaid, weren’t you?

Spagnola: Yes, I was a waitress.

Taylor: I heard you never ever wrote down any customer’s orders.

Spagnola: It was all in my head.

Taylor: It didn’t matter if it was a party of 20 people.

Spagnola: I never wrote it down. I remembered everything they ordered.

It sounds like you were a great waitress!

Spagnola: Oh, I had to be. You sell more beer and get more tips. You always had to smile whether you wanted to or not. I got along with all of the customers.

I used to feed them good food and beer, so they liked me.

Taylor: When you were on the Jonathon Brandmeier show, you were talking about occasionally having a high ball. Do you remember that?

Spagnola: Yeah, but I like my beer. I could have more beer than high ball.

What’s in a high ball?

Spagnola: Whiskey.

Taylor: What else?

Spagnola: Well, that’s about all I ever had.

If you were going to sit down and have a cold beer, what goes best with it?

Spagnola: I like drinking with friends now. I like telling stories about your own life and asking questions about their life.

Taylor: She’s very social. She’s definitely the life of the party. We do have “happy hour” here — maybe one or two a year, even though she could have an adult beverage at her request, as other residents can.

They’re very difficult to plan because we need a doctor’s order for every single person. When we do have them though, she’s the first one there and the last one to leave. She’s pleasant and positive all of the time.

Spagnola: I use to go to Hanson’s Amusement Park in Harvey’s Lake a lot.

What did you and your friends like to do?

Taylor: There was a beach up there too, right?

Spagnola: We’d sit around and talk. We’d drink Spagnola: Sandy Beach! That’s right. We went a little, but we wouldn’t get intoxicated. It was just to there a lot too. enjoy the taste while talking.

/CULTURE

You’ll tap the first keg at PA Oktoberfest this weekend at Mohegan Sun Pocono.

Spagnola: Oh boy. I hope so!

Taylor: We’re tapping the keg Friday night, Sept. 11 at Mohegan Sun Pocono between 5 and 7 p.m. It’s a three-day event, and Pauline is going to start the festivities. You’ll be tapping the keg of Stegmaier to kick off the party.

Spagnola: I hope I can see it to hit it.

Taylor: Well, I’ll be there to help you.

Spagnola: Oh, good.

Did you ever get drunk?

Spagnola: I think I did get drunk once, but my mother didn’t know. I sobered up first before I went back home.

Did you ever tell your parents when you were older about how you use to sneak beer?

Spagnola: Oh, no! Never. I kept it to myself.

Are you a pretty good cook?

Spagnola: Well, I’d say so. When I would serve people food I made, they’d eat everything. I’d make homemade pierogies all of the time. Boy, they were hard to make.

Taylor: What about potato pancakes?

Spagnola: Oh they’re easy to make. They’re deli-

Was that a popular area to see friends?

Spagnola: It was, until it was taken over by the big shots.

Taylor: Then what happened?

Spagnola: Then we couldn’t go there. Sandy Beach was only for the rich. They were in and we were out!

Do you have any advice for younger people?

Spagnola: Take it easy and drink beer.

Taylor: You know Pauline, you wouldn’t have gotten famous if you accredited your longevity to eating carrots.

Spagnola: Oh, I hate carrots. I could give the advice “go to bed early,” but that’s a lot of bologna. We all stay up late.

Did you ever like to go dancing or out to a concert?

Spagnola: Oh, dancing! I would go out dancing every Saturday night.

What type of dancing did you like?

Spagnola: Anything! Waltzes, polkas — you name it, I could do it.

Psychologically sound straight talk froM syndicated coluMnist aMy alkon

getting More exorcise I went through a horrible divorce several years ago. Our marriage got very ugly, and I was mainly at fault. I’ve since worked very hard to get my life together and become a better person, but this past Saturday night, out of the blue, I got a slew of angry, abusive texts from my ex-husband. Some of these texts: ”I have a new wife & she’s younger than u & treats me way better.” “My career is going great. I bet ur more of a mess than ever.” “Ur a sociopath. I hope u die.” He also texted me an aerial shot of his new house and pool. A while back, I tried to apologize to him on the phone, but he was, to put it nicely, not interested. Is there a way to stop all this ugliness? (P.S. The new me stopped the old me from sending back snarky texts.)

— Changed Person

Nothing says “I’m over you” like a Saturday night text blitz of hate and real estate.

When life sends you hate, it’s tempting to make haterade: “Luv the pool. Will b over 2nite to swim with adolfo, my 24-yr-old underwear model boyfriend.” But the snarky low blow will just keep the ugly flying. Consider that anger comes out of hurt — from feeling that we’ve been treated unfairly — and try a counterintuitive approach: calling up a little compassion. Compassion gets confused with empathy, the ability to put yourself in somebody else’s shoes. But compassion is empathy plus an action plan — dialing in to the hurt that the person is feeling and then wanting to do something to make things better (rather than just taking the spectator approach: “Woo, is he ever having a crummy life!”).

Compassion is the gateway to accountability — taking responsibility for the harm you caused. You do that by admitting what you did and apologizing for it and then trying to make good in the best way you can. Sure, you tried to apologize to him before, but on the phone. The phone is easy. It’s the medium of prank calls and “30 minutes or less or your pizza is free!” Referencing the work of apology researcher Aaron Lazare, M.D., I explain in my book Good Manners for Nice People Who Sometimes Say F*ck that a meaningful apology is a “costly apology” — one that requires the person doing the apologizing to invest time and effort, take a hit to their ego by admitting wrongdoing, and maybe even spend money. (On that last one, that’s if you, say, broke someone’s vase, as opposed to their ability to trust women, which is a little harder to put

46 S e p t e m b e r 1 0 , 2 0 1 5 TS_CNG/EC_DC/PAGES [E46] | 09/09/15

a dollar amount on.)

A “costly apology” starts with a full jerktopsy — your dissection of three things: 1. Why what you did was wrong; 2. What it must mean to the person you wronged; and 3. How things could have (and should have) been different. Laying out these details — first for yourself and then for the person you harmed — helps them see that you understand what you did and that you aren’t all “yeah, whatever, bro” about its effects on them. By making a meaningful effort to clean up the damage you did to their dignity — their feeling that they’re worthy of care and respect — you may allow them to stop clinging to what you did and maybe even forgive you (putting an end to the fun game of “I’ll claw your back; you claw mine”).

Send your apology to your ex in a letter — one that is detailed and thoughtful, reflects selfknowledge and healthy humility, and expresses remorse. He may or may not accept your apology, believe you’ve changed, or change his attitude toward you. But apologizing is the right thing to do and, ultimately, something you need to do for you.

Getting in the habit of being accountable makes you a better romantic partner, a better friend, and a better person (and probably a person who sleeps better, as you tend to do when your conscience isn’t yoo-hooing you with 3 a.m. wake-up calls).

Sometimes you can’t entirely do right by the person you hurt (like when anything beyond a letter of apology would be unwanted and/or require body armor). Unfortunately, there’s no “undo” command in life, and a working time machine is probably at least 50 years behind my tragically nonexistent flying car. So when you find yourself still owing, it’s good to do something for somebody — maybe some sort of volunteer or philanthropic work -- with the explicit purpose of making up for the harm you did. And then, when the confused homeless guy wonders why you’re giving him not just the bag of groceries but the car you loaded it into, you can mumble, “Um … let’s just say marriage wasn’t my strong suit.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19): “More and more I have come to admire resilience,” writes Jane Hirshfield in her poem “Optimism.” “Not the simple resistance of a pillow,” she adds, “whose foam returns over and over to the same shape, but the sinuous tenacity of a tree: finding the light newly blocked on one side, it turns in another.”

You have not often had great access to this capacity in the past, Aries. Your specialty has been the fast and fiery style of adjustment. But for the foreseeable future, I’m betting you will be able to summon a supple staying power — a dogged, determined, incremental kind of resilience.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “The fragrance from your mango groves makes me wild with joy.”

That’s one of the lyrics in the national anthem of Bangladesh. Here’s another: “Forever your skies . . . set my heart in tune as if it were a flute.” Elsewhere, addressing Bangladesh as if it were a goddess, the song proclaims, “Words from your lips are like nectar to my ears.” I suspect you may be awash with comparable feelings in the coming weeks, Taurus — not toward your country, but rather for the creatures and experiences that rouse your delight and exultation. They are likely to provide even more of the sweet mojo than they usually do. It will be an excellent time to improvise your own hymns of praise.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): There have been times in the past when your potential helpers disappeared just when you wanted more help than usual. In the coming weeks, I believe you will get redress for those sad interludes of yesteryear. A wealth of assistance and guidance will be available. Even people who have previously been less than reliable may offer a tweak or intervention that gives you a boost. Here’s a tip for how to ensure that you take full advantage of the possibilities: Ask clearly and gracefully for exactly what you need.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Why grab the brain-scrambling moonshine when you may eventually be offered a heart-galvanizing tonic? Why gorge on hors d’oeuvres when a four-course feast will be available sooner than you imagine? According to my analysis of the astrological omens, my fellow Crab, the future will bring unexpected opportunities that are better and brighter than the current choices. This is one of those rare times when procrastination may be in your interest.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): As I hike up San Pedro Ridge, I’m mystified by the madrone trees. The leaves on the short, thin saplings are as big and bold as the leaves on the older, thicker, taller trees. I see this curiosity as an apt metaphor for your current situation, Leo. In one sense, you are in the early stages of a new cycle of growth. In another sense, you are strong and ripe and full-fledged. For you, this is a winning combination: a robust balance of innocence and wisdom, of fresh aspiration and seasoned readiness.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I hope it’s not too late or too early to give you a slew of birthday presents. You deserve to be inundated with treats, dispensations and appreciations. Here’s your first perk: You are hereby granted a license to break a taboo that is no longer useful or necessary. Second blessing: You are authorized to instigate a wildly constructive departure from tradition.

Third boost: I predict that in the next six weeks, you will simultaneously claim new freedom and summon more discipline. Fourth delight: During the next three months, you will discover and uncork a new thrill. Fifth goody: Between now and your birthday in 2016, you will develop a more relaxed relationship with perfectionism.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A “wheady mile” is an obsolete English term I want to revive for use in this horoscope. It refers to what may happen at the end of a long journey, when that last stretch you’ve got to traverse seems to take forever. You’re so

but would like to be a professional? 2. Are you hesitant to leave a comfort zone even though remaining there tends to inhibit your imagination?

3. Is your ability to fulfill your ambitions limited by any lack of training or deficiency in your education? 4. Is there any way that you are holding on to blissful ignorance at the expense of future possibilities? 5. What new license, credential, diploma, or certification would be most useful to you?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The story of my life features more than a few fiascos. For example, I got fired from my first job after two days. One of my girlfriends dumped me without any explanation and never spoke to me again. My record label fired me and my band after we made just one album.

Years later, these indignities still carry a sting. But I confess that I am also grateful for them. They keep me humble. They serve as antidotes if I’m ever tempted to deride other people for their failures. They have helped me develop an abundance of compassion.

I mention this personal tale in the hope that you, too, might find redemption and healing in your own memories of frustration. The time is right to capitalize on old losses.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s never fun to be in a sticky predicament that seems to have no smart resolution. But the coming days could turn out to be an unexpectedly good time to be in such a predicament. Why? Because I expect that your exasperation will precipitate an emotional cleansing, releasing ingenious intuitions that had been buried under repressed anger and sadness. You may then find a key that enables you to reclaim at least some of your lost power. The predicament that once felt sour and intractable will mutate, providing you with an opportunity to deepen your connection with a valuable resource.

/ENTERTAINMENT

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY

close to home; you’re imagining the comfort and rest that will soon be yours. But as you cross the “wheady mile,” you must navigate your way through one further plot twist or two.

There’s a delay or complication that demands more effort just when you want to be finished with the story. Be strong, Libra. Keep the faith.

The wheady mile will not, in fact, take forever. (Thanks to Mark Forsyth and his book Horologicon.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Trying improbable and unprecedented combinations is your specialty right now. You’re willing and able to gamble with blends and juxtapositions that no one else would think of, let alone propose.

Bonus: Extra courage is available for you to call on as you proceed. In light of this gift, I suggest you brainstorm about all the unifications that might be possible for you to pull off.

What conflicts would you love to defuse? What inequality or lopsidedness do you want to fix? Is there a misunderstanding you can heal or a disjunction you can harmonize?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Is feeling good really as fun as everyone seems to think?

Is it really so wonderful to be in a groove, in love with life and in touch with your deeper self? No! Definitely not! And I suspect that as you enter more fully into these altered states, your life will provide evidence of the inconveniences they bring. For example, some people might nag you for extra attention and others may be jealous of your success. You could be pressured to take on more responsibilities. And you may be haunted by the worry that sooner or later, this grace period will pass. I’M JUST KIDDING, SAGITTARIUS! In truth, the minor problems precipitated by your blessings won’t cause any more anguish than a mosquito biting your butt while you’re in the throes of ecstatic love-making.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In this horoscope, we will use the Socratic method to stimulate your excitement about projects that fate will favor in the next nine months. Here’s how it works: I ask the questions and you brainstorm the answers. 1. Is there any part of your life where you are an amateur

Homework: What are five conditions you’d need in your world in order to feel you were living in utopia?
