It does make me proud to be an American that gay people now can marry in all 50 states. In a very divided decision, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that gay people could no longer be denied the benefits of marriage. It was long overdue. New Hampshire should be proud that it democratically extended these rights a few years ago. In the minority dissent Chief Justice John Roberts wrote that the court should have let democracy run its course and over time these rights would have been extended to everyone. And he’s right, it’s unfortunate that this change didn’t take place at the ballot box state by state, but core rights, like marriage, shouldn’t need majority approval. More than that, even under the best circumstances it would have taken years (maybe generations) to undo the patchwork of constitutional amendments and laws that banned gay marriage in most states. Should a basic right, like the pursuit of happiness, be held back from a group of people so each state could maybe get around to changing its laws? Could we let stand laws that allowed one to be married in New Hampshire, but not Texas? The Supreme Court made the only rational decision it could. Less inspiring was the dissent and the reaction of many of the Republican presidential candidates. Viable candidate Scott Walker, governor of Wisconsin, had this to say: “the only alternative left for the American people is to support an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to reaffirm the ability of the states to continue to define marriage.” Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee was even harsher, calling the decision “judicial tyranny” and saying it would lead to the “criminalization of Christianity.” These bombastic reactions spell trouble for the electability of the party at the presidential level (as does the continued anti-immigration rhetoric from other candidates). Richard Nixon’s famous southern strategy, playing to conservatives, was only good for a few cycles. In 1968, he won California, Vermont, Illinois, Ohio, Florida and Virginia, all states won by Barack Obama in 2008. This time around Republicans need to win not only places like Ohio and Pennsylvania but more cosmopolitan places like Florida and Virginia. That’s a tall order unless the party embraces a more pluralistic view of America. Perhaps the Republican party needs a popular strategy to start winning presidential elections again. Though gay marriage is, as those quotes indicate, going to continue to be a political issue, it won’t be one that continues to deny a basic right to millions of Americans. In the end, a basic right like marriage is now available to all, and that is great news.

NEWS & NOTES Primary update

The number of Democrats running for president raised to five after former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb announced his candidacy July 2 through an open letter to his supporters posted to his campaign website. That’s still only about a third of the number of candidates running in the GOP primary, which currently totals 14. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is still leading the Democrats by a fair margin, though polls have shown Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is gaining on her. The Union Leader reported that Sanders’ events have drawn large crowds, like the recent one in Wisconsin that attracted about 10,000 people. When Clinton was asked why she’s not pulling in such large crowds, she simply said she’s running her own campaign. Her recent visit to Dartmouth College in Hanover saw about 850 people. Much was also made of the first batch of personal emails from Clinton’s server released to the public since it was ordered by a federal court. The Washington Post said the more than 3,000 pages of emails from 2009 were largely mundane and sometimes humorous conversations with staffers but only a small fraction of the total 55,000 pages to ultimately be released. Several candidates spent their July 4 in New Hampshire. Clinton marched in the Gorham Independence Day parade but was criticized for cordoning off the press with a rope, creating a buffer zone around the candidate. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry and South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham were the only three Republicans to march in the Amherst parade and Democratic former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee also made an appearance. Later in the day, Bush and Perry marched in the Merrimack parade and Graham marched in the Center Harbor parade. Republicans Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie marched in the Wolfeboro parade. Christie wrapped up a four-day tour of the state after arriving the same evening of declaring his candidacy on June 30. Following the holiday, former New York Gov. George Pataki, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and former HP CEO Carly HIPPO | JULY 9 - 15, 2015 | PAGE 4

Lead exposure

In what many are calling the most widespread lead dust exposure case in recent New England history, state and federal officials and tenants of the Lofts at Mill West in Manchester are criticising building owner Brady Sullivan for its handling of the incident. NHPR reported the cleanup effort ordered by Brady Sullivan has been deemed substandard. One tenant placed cameras in the apartment and noted the cleanup crew didn’t enter their bedroom to clean it. Critics also say the property owners were slow to react to initial complaints and downplayed the health risks. On May 12, regulators put an end to sandblasting that was taking place in the building, contaminating at least 72 of the 98 units. One fourth-floor windowsill was found to have 680 times the legal amount of lead. Since then, 22 tenants have filed suit against Brady Sullivan and the EPA has threatened fines or a lawsuit. Meanwhile, Brady Sullivan has begun offering free rent for the first month at vacant Mill West units.

Senate race

Republican U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte officially launched her re-election campaign. The launch event took place at the Alpine Club on Manchester’s West Side, where Ayotte told the crowd there she would focus on veterans’ issues and addressing the heroin epidemic if re-elected. WMUR reported she downplayed speculation of any larger political ambitions because her name is often floated as a likely vice presidential pick for the Republican nominee. The relatively early timing of her announcement also got political analysts wondering if she was trying to force her possible opponent, Gov. Maggie Hassan, to tip her hand.

Conceal carry bill

New Hampshire’s only gun regulation is likely to spark debate in the coming days as Gov. Maggie Hassan vetoed a bill that would repeal it. The AP reported the bill would eliminate a requirement that gun owners acquire a license from local

law enforcement or town officials in order to carry a gun concealed on their person or in a vehicle compartment. The legislature would need to reach a two-thirds majority to override the veto.

Breath tests

As lawyers review more than 100 breath tests administered by police officers who may have received a false positive on their certification exams, the initial list of 64 officer names in question has risen to more than 200. The AP reported state officials with the Department of Safety released an additional roughly 150 names out of an abundance of caution since there’s the possibility some may have received a passing grade by answering one specific question on the online test correctly. Meanwhile, as defense attorneys review the cases, they say the state isn’t doing enough to notify defendants, NHPR reported. The state is treating the two lists of names differently and it says the computer glitch that caused the problem began as far back as 2012. But defense attorneys say not enough is known about the officers in the larger list to allow them to be considered certified.

An antique barn in Deerfield is being dismantled in order to be rebuilt for a reality TV show in West Virginia, Barnwood Builders on the DIY Network. The Union Leader reported the barn has been sitting on North Road for about 150 years.

Veterans registered to vote are registered as Republican by a threeto-one margin. In a field of about 20 Republican candidates, analysts say a candidate can win the primary with 25 percent of the electorate and acquiring the veteran vote could be enough to put them over the top.

FIREWORKS STORES

LOST CAMPERS

Stores selling fireworks had their busiest week of the year in the lead-up to the July 4 holiday weekend. NHPR reported that Champny’s Fireworks in Bow saw customers spending anywhere from $15 to $3,000 on fireworks. Workers at Phantom Fireworks in Hinsdale told 22News in Massachusetts that they make more money in that one week than in any other time of the year. This is partly because of the store’s proximity to the border of the Bay State, which has outlawed consumer fireworks.

Three campers got lost at Bear Brook State Park when they wandered off the trail, the AP reported. They called 911 for help getting back to their campsite and a search party, including park staff, Deerfield police and Fish and Game conservation officers, went looking for the group. They were located in a remote part of the park by a park staff member at about 11 p.m.

Swatting on the rise

An increase in hoax 911 calls raises questions about motive By Ryan Lessard

news@hippopress.com

There have been four calls to police in as many months claiming people were injured, held hostage or threatened with injury in four towns, three of which are within about a dozen miles of each other. With recent cases in other parts of the state as well, the problem seems to be growing in frequency, and authorities still don’t know what’s motivating the hoaxers.

What’s happening?

On July 6, a man called police claiming he had taken a hostage at a Rochester home and later called back to say he had shot the hostage. Authorities evacuated the area but came short of activating the tactical team because they were able to determine it was a hoax early on. No one was home at the residence. Police in the area have had enough experience with hoax calls like this lately that may have made them wary of calling in SWAT. During the early morning hours of June 18, Newmarket police got a call from someone claiming they had accidentally shot a friend and threatening to shoot police when they arrive. The response team, which included Newmarket, Greenland and Epping police officers as well as state police, arrived at a Grant Road residence to find unsuspecting residents at home asleep. About two weeks earlier, on June 6, a SWAT team of regional police officers descended on the Back Shore motel in Gloucester, Massachusetts, expecting to find an armed individual holding hostages. The evening prior, Stratham police and members of the Seacoast Emergency Response Team surrounded an Irving gas station convenience store and closed traffic to Portsmouth Avenue and Route 101. Again, they were expecting hostages. In both cases, there was no suspicious activity upon arrival at the scenes. “We received a call indicating that there was a bomb, a hostage and somebody in

possession of a firearm at the Irving station,” Stratham police chief John Scippa said. When police found no bombs or weapons in the building and realized the call was a hoax, they quickly connected it to an earlier hoax call in Rye on April 21. The situation was almost identical. A caller said there had been a stabbing at the Abenaqui Country Club and the stabber had taken two hostages and was in possession of a bomb. Scippa said his department has been working with Rye and Gloucester to see if there is a connection between their cases. “There was some information garnered from the telephone calls. I can’t go into specifically what that information was. That’s part of the investigative process now,” Scippa said. “We’re trying to collect as much information as we can, compare notes, and do as thorough a job as we possibly can to try to figure this out.” If Scippa were to cast a wider net, he might look at other recent cases, including two that happened on April 4 in Billerica and Hopkinton, Massachusetts, one in Keene on April 2, one in Groton, Massachusetts, on March 23 and another in Manchester on March 15. In the Billerica case, juvenile suspects were apprehended. Other cases remain under investigation.

Investigating and prosecuting

Charles Putnam, the co-director of Justiceworks, a criminal justice research institute at UNH, said multijurisdictional cooperation is key to finding the perpetrators when a pattern seems to emerge. “There are ways for, particularly, law enforcement agencies at the state level to look for ways to help municipal departments coordinate their efforts to combat the problem and even to coordinate across state lines,” Putnam said. “In other words, Massachusetts State Police and New Hampshire State Police may have some ability to convene a working group or task force to look at a problem if they’re finding a cluster of incidents in the same area.”

Motives

But, Putnam said, hoaxers are growing increasingly adept at covering their tracks. “There are a number of ways for committed people to hide their activity. That can be a challenge for law enforcement,” Putnam said. “It can be challenging and complex to investigate and prosecute.” The technologically adept can mask the originating phone number or use a prepaid “burner” phone that’s later destroyed. And some legal challenges remain. For one, swatting is not technically a crime. Prosecutors have to charge swatters with tangential crimes like conspiracy, fraud or making threats to use a firearm. Massachusetts lawmakers have proposed a bill that would add “swatting” to the criminal code lexicon. It would make swatting punishable by up to 2.5 years with fines starting at $2,500. Manchester police say each SWAT response costs about the same amount. The bill hasn’t had a hearing yet and New Hampshire has not proposed any similar bills. Despite those challenges, Putnam is hopeful that police can track down these callers. When and if that happens, police will gain valuable insight into their motivations.

Putnam says prank calls meant to incite an emergency response is nothing new. “I tend to view this kind of phenomenon in a broader historical and social context where pranks involving police and fire go way back,” Putnam said. “There are a number of origins and possible motivations for it.” People have long called police for revenge against another for a perceived slight, such as in the aftermath of a bad breakup, according to Putnam. In its most modern iteration, swatting has grown more sophisticated. Individuals are increasingly aware of what they need to say to police dispatchers in order to trigger a heavy response, and the Internet makes it easier to share that info anonymously with others. Several documented cases suggest the increased popularity of the prank owes its genesis to the growth of online video games and live webcam streaming. This provided hoaxers a way to record heavily armed officers storming into a gamer’s home and post the video on YouTube. But the recent cases in New Hampshire don’t match that pattern. For one, individuals are not being targeted. “Best as we can determine now, it was just the location [that was targeted],” Scippa said of the Stratham gas station. Two of the targets along the seacoast were businesses. “What [that] means, I don’t know,” Scippa said. “I don’t think anything’s off the table at this point, in terms of what the motivation could be. I think we have to keep all options available. … Is it a prank and nothing more than that? Or is it connected to an organized criminal element that’s trying to divert resources? That remains to be seen at this time.” For his part, Putnam can’t speculate on the likelihood of one motive over the other given the available facts. But Scippa says even if it’s a prank, the risks of someone getting hurt when police prepare for the worst means this is no laughing matter. “It endangers people’s lives,” Scippa said. “It’s not a joke. It’s not funny.”

twice that much. Laurenza said they had originally looked at spaces in the Millyard that had similar rent (about $1,200 a month) but ultimately decided on the Elm Street location. Co-founder David Carrigg said part of the reason was the relationship with the building’s owners, Maritime Program Group, an insurance company. “The landlords have been super awesome here,” Carrigg said. “They’ve been really good about helping us.” Carrigg’s company, Retro Affect, developed an indie game called Snapshot, a puzzle platformer that was released in 2012. A newer addition to the group of core companies that has taken up residence in the space is Robot Loves Kitty, the husband-andwife team of Calvin Goble and Alix Stolzer. “It’s a really good location,” Stolzer said. “One of the reasons we chose this over the other spaces that we looked at is because it’s close enough to the outside that we can actually see the sun — which is nice — and it’s also very accessible.” Still, Stolzer and the others were quick to assure that they have big dreams for making the space cool-looking and professional. “Everything’s very sparse. There’s no signage,” Stolzer said, pointing to the folding tables and the few desks they have set up for guest computers. Laurenza says he wants to get more common-use gaming computers, spare work laptops and matching furniture. How to pay for some of those things is an open question.

What is a bike collective? It’s much more an open shop where [residents] work on their own bikes with help and we assist more. It’s a place where people can work on their own bikes or other people’s bikes using the collective’s tools and space and help from a lead mechanic. Bikes are important in the community, and people need to be able to work on their own bikes for economic reasons and for educational reasons. It’s a skill to have and it’s an expensive skill to pay other people to do. Why is Manchester a good place to locate a bike collective? Because it’s the largest city and the city in New Hampshire with the greatest need for bikes. Most of the people we see who are using their time at the collective, many are adults who use their bikes for basic transportation. Many of these people are not recreational bikers. Many of the adults use their bikes for basic transportation — meaning their only form of transportation, in many cases. I think that’s, by far, more concentrated here in Manchester.

was deliberate that it’s in that neighborhood, but it is is for whoever wants to use it.

What’s your background with bicycles? I’m a Abby Easterly. Courtesy photo. business management consultant. I’m largely retired. I’ve spent a lot of time on community volunteer work. This is a project that sort of grew out of a combination of my interests, including the fact that my son did a lot of bike repair, bike rebuilding, and left behind a bunch of old bikes and pieces and tools. So the base of starting the collective was the things he had left behind when he left home. … We split our time in Tucson. Tucson has a very well-established bike collective, so we were familiar with that. In Tucson, it’s called BICAS and it’s a really long-term, well-established bike collective. I worked on my own bike in Tucson with that collective. We visited other collectives in preparation to try to figure this out. But I have limited mechanical knowledge. Tyler Glodt is providing most of our lead mechanic time. ... Bike Barn has also sent us mechanics.

Are there talks about setting up in other places in the state? I hope other communities will set up a collective, but it’s really a communitybased thing. We would not probably try to bring a collective elsewhere. I’d love to help people with what we’ve learned. How did you get the idea to set one of But it grows in the community.

The The Drive:

1st Hole

1) It’s straight downhill from the tee to a fairway lined with trees on both sides that also slopes to the right, so even balls just off the fairway on the right can go down to the trees and then you’re looking at bogey. That makes hitting middle left of the fairway key – so you may want to hit a long iron for control and 2) then it’s a chip from about 130 yards out. However you can get real close with the big dog, 3 3) to have a short pitch and roll up to get close to go for birdie. Either way, you still have to be in the middle as there’s a trap on the left and right landing area for the big hitters.

The Green: It’s a straightaway green to putt on from any angle, though it’s quick so to you have to watch your speed on putts, as well as for the ball you roll up on the green from your second shot. If you miss the green long on that second shot – you’re in the trap that rims the entire back side of the green. HIPPO | JULY 9 - 15, 2015 | PAGE 12

Baseball hit mid-season last weekend as all teams played their 81st game of the year. It has been a disappointing season to this point for the local nine; my Red Soxobsessed friend Gary Parsons texted me from outside Detroit with a declaration that their season was over on June 15 at 11 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. And it was a sentiment shared by many in Red Sox Nation and the local media. However, for the umpteenth time in a running debate that dates back to my freshman year in college, Pars is wrong again, as helped along by the demise of the AL East as the best division in baseball, the Sox are not dead. True they are under .500, but for the first time since the year started they are stringing together a bit of consistency by winning consecutive series over Baltimore, Toronto and Houston. It’s true they still need a solid starter and another productive reliever, but in being just six games out and the hitting starting to jell, if they can keep it going vs. Miami and sweep the Yanks this week it’ll be down to three games heading into the All-Star break. Now here are a few more thoughts about the season to date. The Sox may be baseball’s most disappointing team, but Seattle and San Diego ain’t far behind. Both are under .500 after spending big in the offseason. Hitting .250 with 5 homers and 27 homers after 77 games was not what Seattle was expecting for the $30 million per they are paying Robinson Cano, whose power now appears a product of the short porch in right at Yankee Stadium. As thoroughly unlikable as Bryce Harper is, with 25 homers and 60 RBI in his first 75 games he appears to be the real deal. If he hits 21 in the second half he’ll have 100 at 23 years old, something Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle or Junior Griffey didn’t do after coming to the majors in their teens. However, to paraphrase once VP candidate Lloyd Bentsen, he’s no Mel Ott or Tony Conigliaro. At 22 they’re the youngest to reach 100 in the NL and AL. Ott incredibly had 154 by the time he turned 22 and hit 42 in 1929 when he was 20! The ill-fated Tony C won the 1965 homer title at 20 and had 102 at the time of his famous 1967 beaning, which cost him the final two months of his 22 year-old season. The answer to the Phillies is NO on Mookie Betts in any deal for Cole Hamels. He’s starting to look like he just might eventually be that .330 hitter some said he might be after his big spring. Even with the

rough first two months, Mookie’s on pace to have 40 doubles, 10 triples, 18 homers and knock in 82 from the lead-off spot, a lot better than Jacoby Ellsbury did in his first full year. At 27-55 the Phillies are off to their worst start since 1972 when Mike Schmidt hit .196 as a rookie and Steve Carlton somehow won 27 games with a team that won 59. So I’ll do the Benson impersonation to tell the 5-6, 3.22 ERA Hamels, “I knew Steve Carlton and you, sir, are no Steve Carlton.” My bet on where he goes is to Theo’s Cubs. As a young team on the rise no one besides Jon Lester is making big money, so they have plenty of extra cash over the next several years to absorb his contract and top prospects to give. The answer to the Globe’s Nick Cafardo question in his Baseball Notes column a few weeks back regarding “Who would you rather have, Jose Iglesias or Xander Bogaerts” is, are you kidding me? Yes, Iggy has turned out to be a better hitter than anyone expected and the new age fielding stats Cafardo referenced say he’s saved seven runs so far this year. But for Boggy, it’s two runs saved defensively and he’s on pace to have 50 more runs than Iggy, who had a puny 12 by Sunday. And with Boggy now hitting his stride as the weather warms to the tune of .331 in his last 30 games, that gap will likely widen. Plus with Xander 22 and three years younger, it’s no contest. When did the Astros join the American League? Boo to that, by the way. Clayton Kershaw’s quest to match Sandy Koufax’s five straight ERA titles between 1962 and 1966 looks all but dead, as he’s way back in 29th place at 3.05 while teammate Zach Greinke was the NL leader at 1.58. With nine wins, an ERA of 1.82 and a no-hitter to his credit, Max Scherzer isn’t buckling to the pressure of his ginormous new contract. Neither did Giancarlo Stanton, who had 27 homers when he broke his hand in mid-June. While he doesn’t hit for average anymore, it’s nice to see Albert Pujols projecting to hit 48 homers. But the real story is that if he hits 18 more he’ll go into 2016 with 590. If he averages what seems like a doable 30 per in the six remaining years on his mammoth contract he’ll pass Henry Aaron and have Barry Bonds in his sights too. Back to Betts for a second, the best thing about him is not even the big start. It’s that when people around here say “Mookie,” the first thing they think of no longer is the 1986 World Series.

it more difficult was that Kyle Lavigne joined Pratt with four hits, one of which was a homer, and teammate Adam Roy had a two-homer day as well.

It’s finally summer, and farmers markets are in full swing. To get the scoop on what’s happening at markets near you, the Hippo talked to all kinds of vendors, from farmers selling fresh fruits and veggies to artisans selling crafts — because these days, farmers markets are about more than just produce. While it might always be the star, produce has been joined by plenty of other foods, from fish to honey, plus flowers, art, skincare products and more. Many markets have entertainment, too, often in the form of live music to listen to while you shop or enjoy a homemade donut or fresh blueberries. This guide will help you make the most of your next trip to the farmers market.

Fill up on fruits and veggies Plus an update on this year’s farmers market scene

porating heated greenhouses in their production, which is why, even with this spring’s weather, you’ll likely still see things like tomatoes and cucumbers at the markets.

By Kelly Sennott

It was a hard winter for most New Hampshire farmers, particularly those without heated greenhouses, but after a long, cold season (not to mention a brief but pesky drought), they’re finally in the swing of things at the local markets. Wayne Colsia, Paradise Farm owner and Milford Farmers Market organizer, and Jane Lang, New Hampshire Farmers’ Market Association president and Salem Farmers’ Market organizer, talked to the Hippo about the produce and happenings at southern New Hampshire’s farmers markets.

What to expect for produce

“We’re just winding down on the strawberries, and we’re about to begin raspberry and blueberry season,” Colsia said. “Crops are a little delayed, maybe about three to four weeks, and then the drought didn’t help. It was a very hard winter, so … everything’s a little late this year.” Some of the produce at the Milford Farmers Market has been a bit smaller, HIPPO | JULY 9 - 15, 2015 | PAGE 14

High demand

a bit more sparse, “but most things are OK,” Colsia said. The Milford market, which is held Saturdays through mid-October, sees a mix of regular and new faces every day. All the vendors have different specialties; some, like Aquaponics Unlimited, are edgy and new (the produce is grown in an environmentally friendly aquaponics system without the use of herbicides or pesti-

cides). But then there are farms who’ve been involved more than 30 years, like Butternut Farm, one of the market founders 38 years ago. Paradise Farm regularly brings in berries, peaches, greens, onions, squash, potatoes, tomatoes, etc. Lang said the Salem Farmers Market is seeing a lot of “nice-looking greens,” including more Asian varieties. She and Colsia noticed more farms are incor-

“I’m seeing a lot of growth in New Hampshire’s farmers markets, especially this past year,” said Lang, who, at the market, usually sports a big floppy hat lined with flowers. “I’ve been contacted by more towns that want to get a farmers market going in their community.” People like the markets, and they want more of them. In some cases, it’s happening; Pelham’s community has been rallying behind the idea for a while, and they’ll be kicking things off with a farmers market to start this August. Rochester’s downtown community members are also looking to start something up, though Lang said they plan to wait a year or two. Lang said the NHFMA’s recent Specialty Crop Block Grant has also helped get the word out — because of it, the organization can better broadcast the markets. “We’ll be running this program six

months,” Lang said. “We’ve heard there are an influx of patrons coming to the local markets, so that’s very exciting.”

Need more farmers

The only bad news to this demand: there’s not enough supply. Many farmers, like Colsia, attend numerous markets. Colsia said he nearly always sells out of produce, which is a good thing, but the cost of spending so much time at the markets is less time in the fields. “That’s the hard part of it — trying to get farmers to commit to many different farmers markets. They can’t go every day. They still need to go work in their fields and get their own products together,” Lang said. She sees hope; she’s noticed new local farms established or improved the past couple years. She pointed to Vernon Family Farm in Newfields, a young business that produces meat, mushrooms and a variety of produce like garlic, beets, cucumbers, eggplant, kale, etc. She also

referred to White Cedar Farm, which took the old Bakie Farm, previously a dairy operation in Kingston, in 2012 and turned it into a breeding ground for fresh food. It currently boasts more than 6 acres of no-spray vegetables and two large greenhouses.

Why shop local

“Most of the stuff you’re getting at the farmers market [is] grown without chemicals and pesticides. It’s really clean stuff,” Colsia said. Lang agreed and also noted the practical advantage. “These products have more longevity in the fridge, and they [provide] more nutrients. … How many times have you walked into Market Basket, bought a cucumber and had it go soft after a few days of being in the fridge?” Lang said. “It’s all about getting involved with your community, getting involved with your local farmers, and being part of a locally farmed revolution.”

For some towns, the farmers market isn’t just a place to buy products and then leave. More and more markets are adding entertainment and activities, inviting people and families to stay a while and enjoy the day outside. Most markets have live music during the summer, and some have kids’ activities and special events from week to week. The Canterbury Community Farmers Market has a different theme or activity every week this summer in addition to live music.

“It gets people to linger as opposed to just getting what they are going to buy and leaving,” Canterbury market manager Julie Dewdney said. “It definitely makes the market more fun and friendly, and families are more apt to come if there’s something for their kids to do.” The most popular event at the market, Dewdney said, is the kids’ scavenger hunt, held several times during the summer. The scavenger hunt has kids go around and ask the vendors questions about how they grow or make their products and how their products are eaten or used. The next scavenger hunt is Wednesday, July 22. Another popular event at the Canterbury

market is the Zu-Mato Festival, where market-goers can enter their giant zucchinis in the “biggest zucchini” contest or get creative and dress their zucchinis in crazy costumes for the “best dressed zucchini” contest. Earn extra points for dressing up with your zucchini. The Zu-Mato Festival is on Wednesday, Aug. 19, this year. The market also has live music scheduled each week throughout the summer. Musicians perform in a music tent in the middle of the market. Upcoming performers include singer-songwriter Steve Furbish on July 15, blues artist Delanie Pickering on July 22 and acoustic trio Just BECAUSE on July 29. Dewdney said the entertainment and special events at the Canterbury market give it a different atmosphere than that of a regular market. “It’s more of a community event,” she said. “It brings more people in on a regular basis, the vendors have better sales and it gives the market a liveliness that has people and vendors coming back year after year.” The Newmarket Farmers Market is another market that features entertainment and activities. It has live music every week, a kids’ activity table every other week and other special events. “It’s not like Market Basket where you’re in and out,” Dale Micherone, Newmarket market manager, said. “People tend to stay longer and linger, and the kids can look forward to doing an activity. It makes it more of an experience and less of a chore.” The kids’ activity is usually a marketrelated craft or project the kids can take home. The most popular is seed planting, where the market provides pots, dirt and seeds for the kids to assemble; the kids take

the pot home and watch their plant grow. Micherone said the kids’ activities allow parents to shop and chat with vendors without distraction while also teaching kids about the value of farmers markets. “Bringing the whole family to the market encourages kids early on to support local business and buy healthy foods when they get older,” Micherone said. The live music at the Newmarket market is not only background noise. People often set up blankets or lawn chairs and stay at the market just for the music. Many of the musicians invite kids to get up and dance, sing or play instruments along with them. Acoustic singer-songwriter Sam Southworth is a favorite at the Newmarket market, DALE MICHERONE Micherone said, especially with the kids. Southworth plays at various farmers markets throughout the summer, including the ones in Nashua, Bedford, Northwood, Rye and Exeter. “Children derive so much enjoyment from the live performance of songs,” Southworth said. “I always bring egg shakers and jingles, spoons and a tambourine, and most kids can watch my strumming hand and get on board with few problems, and they are thrilled to be ‘in the band.’” Southworth said farmers markets are one of his most preferred gigs because of the outdoor, intimate atmosphere with an all-ages audience and “good vibes.” He finds that music enhances the shopping experience at a market. “People want to meet their farmers, talk with them and buy some fresh produce,” he said, “and the acoustic music in the background helps make the whole thing into a seamless tapestry of authenticity.”

If you stop by a New Hampshire farmers market this summer, you’re sure to see a wide array of fruits and vegetables grown by local farmers, but that’s not all the food you’ll find. Fresh fish, goat’s milk, artisanal cheeses, gluten-free cookies, gourmet popcorn and specialty relishes are just a few of the other options you’ll find at local farmers markets. “Not only do we have meats and fishes and produce, we have stuff that will complement that or [can be] made with those items,” Wayne Hall, president of the Concord Farmers Market, said in a phone interview. “It’s nice because somebody can do one-stop shopping.” From Granite Ledge Coffee to Nila’s Chutneys, all aspects of daily eating are highlighted at the Concord Farmers Market with dairy products from Catamount Farms, fermented vegetables from Micro Mama’s and pasta and sauces from Valicenti Organico. The idea, Hall said, is to make sure market visitors get a diverse shopping experience. In some instances, market vendors even use each other’s products, taking locally made to another level. In Concord for example, Bonnie Brae Farm sells venison turnovers that use the farm’s meat but are made by Lala’s Hungarian Pastry, another market member. While many farmers markets have incorporated much more than produce for

some time, many people still come in only expecting to buy their lettuce or tomatoes that day and end up leaving pleasantly surprised. “I think that’s a welcome sight once they come, too,” Hall said. “The first week may take them by surprise, but the next they’re ready to rock and roll. [People say], ‘I wish I’d brought more money. I didn’t know there were so many neat things here.’” Some of the neat things you’ll find in Concord are fruit spreads, relishes and specialty pickles from Red Fox Farm. “I think people like it because it’s something different,” Hall said. Herbalist and owner of Red Fox Farm Daryl Hoitt first started selling medicinal tinctures at markets and only decided to sell food items because one year she and her WAYNE HALL husband made too much sweet and hot pepper relish to eat on their own. They brought it to the market and now regularly bring a selection of specialty items. With the added help of Doug Breed, Red Fox Farm sells 20 kinds of low-sugar and no-sugar fruit spreads and fruit butters, relishes and pickles. They have duck eggs and chicken eggs as well. “There’s been quite an expansion of farmers markets in the last few years,” Breed said in a phone interview. Red Fox Farm products are available at markets in Concord, Laconia, Campton and Canterbury. They’re drawn to the farmers market venues because it’s a great way to highlight

locally made items. “[Some products] are newfangled and some of them are old-fashioned and it’s really about bringing these products, made to the extent possible with local and organic ingredients, and sharing them with the people,” he said. “It sort of got a life of its own.” While having the chance to buy jams and jellies or pasture-raised beef is beneficial, having too many of one type of vendor can get tedious from a customer’s perspective. Beverly Ferrante, director for the Derry Farmer Market, said in previous years that market had up to 30 vendors. “I’ve learned in the past when I do have … 20 to 28 [vendors], I do end up with

a lot of duplication,” she said in a phone interview. This year, on any given week you’ll find 10 to 12 vendors with a selection of goods such as beef, lamb, chicken, pork, maple syrup, honey, Italian pastries and wine. “So basically they can almost look at it this way: Everyone is bringing their own specialty items,” she said. Most vendors are returning from last year, with the exception of newcomer Rockingham Brewing Company. “They’re all excited about it,” she said, referring to the customer base. “It just gets people to realize, ‘Oh we have a brewing company [in Derry] now.’”

There are a lot of products that you can’t eat or drink at your local farmers market. Some of them are made with natural plant and animal ingredients from local farms and homesteads; others are of a more artistic variety. Paul Shea of Great American Downtown, who runs the Nashua Farmers Market, says it has undergone a transformation, turning this year into a much larger and more inclusive market beyond just berries, tubers and leafy greens. “This year is a very exciting year for the market. We are going from six to eight vendors all the way up to as many as 21 vendors. So we are taking on a lot of new vendors,” Shea said. One of these vendors is “That Button and Plant Lady,” Gail Somers Sun. “She makes original clothing, jewelry, bags,” Shea said. “And most of those products incorporate buttons or beads.” Another vendor is David Johnson of the French Hill neighborhood of Nashua.

His company is called “50 Buick Rooster” and he is known for his birdhouses. “He comes right on down to the bridge on Sundays with fantastic birdhouses that are handmade,” Shea said. Johnson also sells planters and potted plants, flowers and edible plants. “I know that he has some succulents. He has some hanging baskets. He also has planters you might put out on your doorstep with a variety of flowers,” Shea said. Later in the season, when it gets cooler out, Shea says more crafty vendors like Holly Klump of south Nashua will begin selling their goods. “[She] makes hand-spun yarn, homemade books, fiber art, ceramics and watercolor,” Shea said. “Throughout the summer, we’re looking forward to incorporating live art, live painting demonstrations. There is live music at the market, weather permitting. Also, we are very much looking to expand our ‘arts in the market’ program.” He encourages any local artists to reach out to Great American Downtown if they are interested in participating.

The farmers market in Nashua will feature Symphony New Hampshire in August and September, selling a picture book titled N is for Nashua and giving away free CDs of their music. Perhaps the most unusual non-food item sold at the Nashua Farmers Market will be solar power. Shea says the home solar installer SolarCity will have a vendor table. “For every customer from the market that goes solar, they will donate $250 to Great American Downtown for our programming,” Shea said. “They have a referral program so we are … subscribed to that referral program. … I think, in this instance, it’s a unique arrangement. I don’t know that they do that elsewhere.” SolarCity will have a booth with information and displays with a sample photovoltaic roof panel. A number of small businesses are producing skin care products in their homes or farmhouses and selling them at farmers markets. These include Hemlock Springs Soaps out of Lyndeborough and Northwood Naturals out of Northwood. “Hemlock Springs Soaps will be joining us with some bath and skin care soaps, lotions and other personal care products,” Shea said. He said Hemlock’s soaps are made from small batches in an old New England farmhouse and the company markets its products as being made using sustainable ingredients. “Their soap is primarily goat’s milk soaps,” Shea said. “They have soaps with names like dazzleberry, almond oats, sexy man soap and Hampton Beach soap, as well as blackberry sage tea soap.” Vito Jano is a sales representative for Northwood Naturals. He mans a table at the Manchester Farmers Market. “We basically pride ourselves on being

all-natural,” Jano said. “We don’t use any chemicals or parabens.” He said most of the products he sells are made from coconut oil. Some use safflower oil, rice bran oil and goat’s milk. “With our goat’s milk soap — it has real goat’s milk in it — we get the goats from a neighbor down the road. We buy the milk from them,” Jano said. “Some of the other base ingredients, we use natural honey from a local [beekeeper].” Jano sells products for treating skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, sensitive skin, dry skin and poison ivy rashes. “It helps to cure and heal it, especially over time,” Jano said. “The more you keep using it, the better it gets.” Jano said they are in the process of making a medicinal lotion for poison ivy dubbed “Ivy League.” “Less than a week ago, I got poison ivy and I usually have to go to the hospital to get steroids,” Jano said. “I used the Ivy League and I never had to go to the hospital. It worked very, very well.” Northwood Naturals makes lip balm, liquid hand soap, soap bars and deodorants as well. The deodorant is called “Pit Stop,” which is a reference to NASCAR. “We try to come up with catchy names and try to catch people’s eye,” Jano said. The soaps and lotions come in many scents. Jano is a personal fan of almond, pearberry and vanilla spice. Other popular options include cranberry, Maine blueberry, New England shores, New Hampshire lilac, peppermint and watermelon. “Kids love the watermelon,” Jano said. “I cannot keep that in stock when it comes to the kids.” Both Northwood Naturals and Hemlock Springs Soaps can also be found in the Bedford Farmers Market.

Andy’s Summer Playhouse starts season with The Kid of Billy the Kid By Kelly Sennott ksennott@hippopress.com

It’s a Tuesday night at Andy’s Summer Playhouse in Wilton, and everyone’s busy getting ready for the 2015 season opener, The Kid of Billy the Kid, written by newly appointed artistic director Jared Mezzocchi. The theater, at the top of a winding hill in a former Grange Hall, is a cluster of activity on this night of rehearsals. Lead actors are on the front lawn practicing lines, and inside, an ensemble of kids ages 8 to 18 are configured in a circle, chanting the beginning of Act II. Between takes, Mezzocchi urges them to really lean in to every word. “This might be the hardest scene I’ve ever put on at Andy’s,” he says. “Let’s step up to the challenge.” Down the hall, set designer Amanda Leslie is fiddling with little paper cut-outs, set up to help her envision the shapes needed for this production’s scenery, which will be done nearly entirely through projection — cutting edge for any theater company, never mind one comprised of New Hampshire school kids. (“[Multimedia storytelling] is blowMeet Jared Mezzocchi grew up in Hollis and was an Andy’s kid for about eight years. He studied theater in college and earned his MFA in Performance and Interactive Media Arts at Brooklyn College. He’s currently on the faculty at the University of Maryland and has directed and/or designed at theaters around the world. He began writing and directing for Andy’s about seven years ago, and when former artistic director DJ Potter decided to step down in order to pursue a passion project, HiveMind Theater Collective in Providence, Mezzocchi jumped at the opportunity. Why he wanted the job: “Andy’s has supplied me with not only the skill set and desire to be in theater, but also a deeper appreciation of new work. … I also feel really close to the community in the Wilton area. … I really, truly, genuinely believe that what Andy’s is doing, is that it’s giving a very unique voice for children. It’s a home for inquiry and exploration. … I see [the kids] completely transform, from ages 8 to 18, into important thinkers and doers.” Bringing in more professionals: “I think there’s something really, really pivotal about how these kids are thinking and doing HIPPO | JULY 9 - 15, 2015 | PAGE 24

original Andy’s works before, including Mezzocchi’s 2014 summer show about writer’s block called The Block. They seem to like his “controlled chaos” way of creation and were pleased when he was appointed artistic director. One called herself a “Jared follower.” At Andy’s, the kids say, things are dynamic, artistic and flexible. If something doesn’t seem right, the directors listen. They may even restructure the entire play. Skye Williams, 18, of Lyndeborough, for instance, was never so stressed as he was before last year’s The Block, but he never felt so rewarded after a production, either. “With all the plays I ever did at school — and with some of the ones I did here — you got a part and you learned your lines,” said Williams, who will be a narrator in The Kid of Billy the Kid. “In The Block last year … I wasn’t really sure who my character was. It didn’t make sense to me, but [Mezzocchi] was having difficulties with it in the same ways I was. We made a whole bunch of changes, actually really close to showtime. It was stressful, but it made more sense to me, who the character was.” Encouraging kids to speak up is part of the teaching process; Mezzocchi says he sees their confidence and abilities grow as they learn about narrative structure, conflict and resolution, and it helps that they know these concepts so they understand why, a couple weeks before showtime, he’ll tweak their lines. Usually they don’t even complain. “You know, it’s funny. I don’t know why they’re so OK with it! But I love it, because it means they really trust the integrity of theater-making, which is really incredible,” Mezzocchi said.

Notes from the theater scene

• See ya, Conrad: The Leddy Center for the Performing Arts (38 Ladds Lane, Epping) summer production is Broadway’s first rock musical, Bye Bye Birdie. It follows rock star Conrad Birdie (played by John Rodgers of Derry), who is drafted by the United States Army. His manager Albert Peterson (Rob Dionne of Manchester) plans one last publicity stunt to help Conrad’s swooning girls survive his departure: they send him to a small town to plant a goodbye kiss on one lucky fan for the world to see. Shows are Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., with three Sunday and two Wednesday matinees at 2 p.m. July 10 through July 26. Tickets are $18. Visit leddycenter.org or call 679-2781. • Traveling theater: Audience members will literally be walking from scene to scene at the Hopkinton Historical Society’s rendition of Our Town, with showtimes Friday, July 17, at 7 p.m.; Saturday, July 18, at 7 p.m.; and Sunday, July 19, at 7 p.m. in Hopkinton Village. The play will be staged entirely outdoors, and the all-local cast will perform in the Village Green, St. Andrew’s Church and the Old Hopkinton Cemetery. Christine Hamm directs. The play performance is in honor of the town’s 250th anniversary, which is fitting, Heather Mitchell, executive director of the Hopkinton Historical Society, said in a press release, because, “The play is about remembering and celebrating the details of everyday life, which is a perfect message for this anniversary year.” The story by Thornton Wilder is set in

statement

About 20 years ago, Nashua’s public art scene was pretty bare. The city’s annual sculpture symposium wasn’t a thing yet, and neither were community art-centered nonprofits like City Arts Nashua and Positive Street Art. Mayor Rob Wagner noticed this lack of color, and he voiced his opinion to community art connoisseur Meri Goyette during a meeting in his office in 1995. She was there to promote the idea of lighting the trees in downtown Nashua when he looked out his office window and pointed out a bare wall at 222-226 Main St. (today it’s next to Citizen’s Bank). It was, he told her, the perfect place for a downtown mural — which was all the encouragement Goyette needed to get started. She headed a public committee that raised money and put out a call for artists interested in creating a depiction of the Yankee Flyer Diner, a staple business to see and be seen in the city from 1940 to 1965. In its time, it was the Red Arrow of Nashua, where political candidates and celebrities came and went (including, at one point, Walt Disney). Of the 12 entries and five finalists, they chose James Aponovich, who, about 10 years later, would serve a term as New Hampshire’s artist laureate. He painted the mural on wooden panels in what used to be the Nashua Center for the Arts in 1997. Aponovich, who lives in Peterborough but grew up in Nashua, remembers the diner. Though he didn’t regularly eat there, he’d walk by on Fridays while buying produce in the downtown markets. During a phone interview, he recalled its smells — coffee, toast and cigarettes — and its metallic gleam. “There would be motorcycles and fancy cars outside. It was the place you went to for coffee or lunch or a quick dinner,” he said. Painting it to the 1965 likeness was no small feat; he referenced old photos and traveled to other New England diners and created sketches and color studies. He interviewed locals who were Yankee Diner regulars. Part of the job included painting a collection of Nashua personalities on the diner’s Mural Restoration Reception

What: Aponovich will sign the prints and greet the public; prints will also be available for sale, and anyone who purchased a print in advance can pick it up at this time and meet the artist.

front street, and for that, Aponovich also conducted interviews and collected photos. (He and his daughter Ana, 13 at the time, also made it in the painting; he’s the guy in the big white truck, and she’s the girl on the bicycle.) “As far as I can remember, there wasn’t any other public art around,” Aponovich said. “There were some murals in Manchester. … But when the idea came up, it was sort of a blank canvas in terms of murals in Nashua.” The mural still stands but with less valor; the paint is chipping away, and with the completion of last year’s Vivian’s Dream mural project, it was the perfect time for City Arts Nashua to tackle a new venture. “From a distance it looks fine, but when we did inventory of all the murals around town last year — my grandson and I were taking photos to put on the city’s website — I looked at the mural close and noticed it was peeling,” said Judy Carlson, City Arts Nashua vice president. “This mural is so prominent — it’s right on Main Street, and it’s a beautiful piece of work and it’s the only outdoor mural in the United States depicting a classic American diner.” Right now, City Arts Nashua is looking to raise restoration money by selling 100 numbered high-quality giclee prints of the original concept painting Aponovich submitted 20 years ago for $250 apiece. Each buyer’s number will go into a bowl, and the name Aponovich draws will win the original 12-inch by 25-inch oil on canvas painting, valued at $15,000. Assuming all these sell, it will raise about half of the $53,000 restoration budget. The rest will come from donations and grants. Aponovich said he’ll take the panels and perform the restoration in his Peterborough studio with the help of a mural conservator. When exactly he’ll begin restoring is dependent on when the funds are raised, but he’d like to have it finished before next March. “I want to see the mural brought back to life, and since I’m the one who was responsible for it, I felt like I should be the one to bring it back,” Aponovich said.

The Seacoast Repertory Theatre’s (125 Bow St., Portsmouth, 785-2782, seacoastrep.org) latest summer production is South Pacific, and it runs July 10 through Aug. 2, with showtimes Thursdays at 7:30 p.m., Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturdays at 2 and 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. The Rodgers and Hammerstein wartime classic will be staged with a newly-configured interior, meant to enhance the setting as both a remote island and a world that includes the audience. It stars professional opera singer Paul Soper as Emile, UNH senior Allie Wing as Nellie and Linette Roungchun as Bloody Mary. “You need strong singers who are really strong actors,” said director Danielle Howard in a press release. “So much of it comes from the emotional life. The music is beautiful, but it’s really (just) kind of pretty if there’s not that life behind it. You hope for that spark on stage, which Paul and Allie have.” Call, email or visit the site for tickets. Pictured, Allie Wing. Courtesy photo.

INSIDE/OUTSIDE A day for the bears

Charmingfare Farm celebrates National Teddy Bear Picnic Day By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

National Teddy Bear Picnic Day is a real thing, and Charmingfare Farm will celebrate it on Saturday, July 11 — the day after the official teddy bear “holiday” — by inviting kids to bring their favorite bears to the farm’s Teddy Bear Picnic. “Yes, it’s a real, official day,” Linda Ellis of Charmingfare Farm said. “This is our fifth year doing it, and we like to celebrate it because it makes for a fun day for families and children, and the farm is a great venue to hold a picnic, so it correlates well.” The picnic has a full schedule of teddy bear activities. From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., kids can play a game of Hide ’N Seek Teddy, where they’ll have to find the stuffed teddy bears hidden around the farm. The bears could be in the trees, the rock walls or anywhere in between. Parents are welcome to help and join in the fun. The farm’s black bear keepers will give a talk at 11:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. on how they care for the farm’s bears, Baxter and Cindy Lou, and answer any questions the kids have about bears. At noon and 2 p.m., kids can join in the Bear Games, such as a log-rolling contest and other activities that bears might like to do. Dr. Byron, the Bygundo Bear Catcher will perform a dramatic reading of “Going on a Bear Hunt” and share bear facts and Children & Teens Children events • LADYBUG GIRL PARTY Explore the wonderful world of Ladybug Girl; sipping tea with buttercup fairies in the secret garden, canoeing over the underwater castle searching for mermaids, picnics and jungle expeditions, finding lost unicorns and discovering fireflies.

stories about his life as a naturalist at 12:30 p.m. Make sure your teddy bear is in tip-top shape at the Teddy Bear Check-Up at 1 p.m. A “bear doctor” will take each teddy’s heartbeat, check their eyes and ears and give them a health assessment. Kids are encouraged to get creative and dress their bears up for the occasion. One of the highlights of the day, Ellis said, is the Teddy Bear Parade, held at 1:30 p.m., when kids can march through the farm and present their bear fashions.

“It’s really adorable how excited they are to show off how they decorated their bears,” Ellis said. “They’ll dress them in bonnets or pearls or a T-shirt with a funny saying on it. It’s definitely a tradition.” Families can bring their own picnic lunch or they can purchase hot dogs and hamburgers from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. There will also be opportunities for pony rides from 11 a.m. to noon and 12:30 to 3:30 p.m., as well as tractor train rides and horse-drawn trolley rides from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

the event. Fabric covering is done to give the aircraft extra reinforcement and protection. The second demonstration will be riveting aircraft parts, taking them apart and putting them back together. Guests will also have the opportunity to try riveting the parts for themselves, hands-on. “People can learn a lot and see some of the craftsmanship put into these planes,” Berthelsen said. “They’re beautiful airplanes, sleek, simple and the pilots are safety conscious about what they do.” At 2:30 p.m., along with the aircraft awards ceremony, there will be raffle drawings for various aviation prizes, including a one-hour flight lesson at Hampton Airfield, a flight simulation time at Nashua Flight Simulator, a ride in an experimental aircraft, gift certificates to Airfield Cafe in North Hampton and family memberships to the Aviation Museum. Kids activities ongoing throughout the day include face painting, paper airplane building, and wing rib building projects. Coffee and pastries will be available in the morning and hot dogs, hamburgers and ice cream in the afternoon. Guests are also welcome to tour the whole museum. This is the museum’s first Homebuilt Aircraft Fly-In. It is a difficult event to plan, Berthelsen said, because of the security measures that must be taken. With the museum located so close to the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport, it needed to get permission from the airport and the FAA to make sure the homebuilt aircrafts would not interfere with the commercial flights. In the event of poor weather, the aircrafts will not be flying in, but the rest of the day’s activities will still take place. “There hasn’t been a lot of these [aviation events] here over the years,” Berthelsen said, “so hopefully with this we can contribute and get the public and pilots together to have a good time and celebrate aviation in Manchester.”

Look to the skies at the Aviation Museum of New Hampshire’s Homebuilt Aircraft Fly-In on Saturday, July 11, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The day will consist of homebuilt aircrafts on display, demonstrations, family activities and more. Homebuilt or experimental aircrafts are aircrafts built by hand from scratch, usually in garages or basements, rather than manufactured in a factory. Most are very small, with only one or two seats. “We feel that it is not a well-understood business,” said Wendell Berthelsen, director of operations at the museum. “The general public probably frowns upon homebuilt aircrafts and thinks they aren’t well-made and risky, but we wanted to expose the public to it so they can understand a little more about them and see what they look like and how they work.” Pilots will fly their aircrafts to the museum parking lot where guests can view them. Ballots will be made up with a description of each plane for people to vote on their favorites. Awards for the People’s Choice and Kid’s Choice aircrafts will be presented at 2:30 p.m. At 10 a.m. and 1 p.m., Ray Grenier, a homebuilt aircraft enthusiast and pilot, will give guided tours of homebuilt aircrafts and talk to people about the process of building an airplane. The other pilots flying-in their planes will also be available to talk with guests about their aircrafts and answer questions. “They love talking about [aircrafts] and could spend all day talking about them,” Berthelsen said. “Some of the pilots give lessons on flying and building and some hold workshops, so there’s a tremendous amount of knowledge there for those who are interested in pursuing it further.” At 11 a.m., Russ Kelsea, a volunteer with the Federal Aviation Administration, will give a seminar on the FAA’s new rules and regulations for homebuilt aircrafts going into effect in 2020. Two demonstrations will be going on throughout the day. One will be fabric covering of a Kitfox plane, on loan from the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center for

Patriotic blooms

Finding flowers in red, white and blue By Henry Homeyer

listings@hippopress.com

Right now many clematis vines are ready to show off in patriotic colors in your garden. Clematis is a showy vine that confounds many. Unlike most flowers, these come in several different colors, including red, white and blue. Surely you’ve seen showy 4- to 6-inch blossoms on vines growing up trellises. Those were probably clematis. But sometimes gardeners plant the vines and are disappointed. They can be a little fussy. In fact, I have two that I planted earlier this summer that seem to be sulking. I know, however, that within a year or two (or sooner, hopefully) they will start growing vigorously. I have provided them with good soil, some organic fertilizer and a structure they can twine around. What clematis vines need are hot tops and cool bottoms. They require rich, slightly moist soil that stays cool, but plenty of hot sunshine on the ascending vines. To do that, mulch the roots well with chopped leaves or ground bark mulch. And plant a medium-sized perennial — or more than one — in front of the vine to shade the soil from the afternoon sun, helping to keep the roots cool. An astilbe is about the right size, or perhaps a Shasta daisy. I called plantsman Gary Milek of Cider Hill Gardens and Galleries in Windsor, Vt., for suggestions for good patriotic red, white and blue clematis varieties. He said there are two great red ones: Niobe and Cardinal Wyszynski. The latter one is a Polish variety that is free flowering, meaning that it will keep blossoming and growing taller all summer, a definite plus. White clematis include a variety called Henryi, which, since it shares a name with me, I should get. Gary Milek said it can easily grow 8 to 10 feet up from the ground in one year. Another white one he likes is Gillian Blades, which has white blossoms and yellow anthers. Right now I have a white bush-type clematis in bloom, known as ground clematis. This gets to be about 5 feet tall, and unless it is very well supported, it then flops over. Mine is growing in front of a stone retaining wall facing east, so it gets little afternoon sun. My bush is nearly 6 feet wide right now, but will die to the ground in winter. The individual flowers are not impressive: each five-petaled blossom is only an inch and a half across. But there are lots of them. Flower clusters are loaded with them, and the stems are nice and strong, hence great in a vase, and keep well when picked. Come fall, I’ll have another round of

white clematis blossoms when my Sweet Autumn clematis comes into bloom. Like the bush-type, this clematis has small blossoms, and lots of them. And they are fragrant, or can be. I had one previously that was not fragrant, but generally they are. Of the blue or purple-blue clematis, a variety called Jackmanii is well known and very popular. It is tough as nails, thriving even after hard winters. Like many, but not all, clematis, it dies to the ground each fall. You should prune it back to within a foot of the ground in the fall or first thing in the spring. Other clematis vines do survive the winter, and should just be trimmed to neaten them up after their early summer blooming. According to Gary Milek, a truer blue is The President. It will grow 8 to 12 feet tall and have two flushes of blooms: early summer (May and June) and then again in fall (September and October). Like many clematis, it has good winter interest: the seed heads are fluffy white, persistent structures. Other great climbers in patriotic colors? Climbing hydrangea (Hydrangea anomala,subspecies petiolaris) is a fabulous white vine. It will attach itself to brick or rock walls, but needs help to climb a wooden wall. These great vines are slow to start growing after planting, but really get vigorous after 5 or 6 years. Your patience will be rewarded. As they climb, they extend short branches, loaded with big white flower panicles that seem to defy gravity. And they thrive in shade, or part shade. Great for the north side of a barn, where I have mine. Then there are the red roses. The Canadian Explorer series, developed in Ottawa, are very nice. William Baffin is my favorite climber. It grows 8 to 10 feet high and is technically a deep pink. But that’s close enough for me.

Dear Becca, Your paintbrushes are artist-style brushes, and, yes, the ones you sent pictures of are older ones. Maybe your dad used them for touching up or stenciling, or for a number of other possible reasons. We often don’t know why things get into another person’s hands. The paintbrushes have more of a decorative value than an antique one. If they are soft enough and in good enough shape, they

could perhaps still be used by an artist. It’s tough to tell from the pictures whether the brushes are horsehair or a fiber. Lots of older brushes were made from horsehair. They are out there in shops and markets for anywhere from $10 to $20 each — again, I think strictly for a decorative purpose.

IN/OUT CAR TALK

Is six the new eight? Dear Car Talk: I have had a Mercury Grand Marquis for over 15 years. We use it for long trips, and have been very satisfied with it. But the time has come to replace it. I saw an By Ray Magliozzi article about the new Buicks, and they look good. My question is: They all seem to be six cylinders. Our Grand Marquis is an eight. I wonder if the sixes deliver the same good driving I am used to. Also, does the engine get more wear at continued highway speeds because it has fewer cylinders? — Bruce Six is the new eight, Bruce. Also, four is the new six, and three is the new four. With technologies like direct injection and turbocharging, engineers have been able to wring more power and efficiency out of each cylinder. For instance, your 15-year-old Grand Marquis with a V-8 produced 215 horsepower. By comparison, the 2015 Buick LaCrosse, with a V-6, makes 304 horsepower. The 2015 Buick Regal, which is well-regarded, has a choice of two four-cylinder engines. The more powerful of the two makes 259 horsepower — 45 more horsepower than your

Grand Marquis, with half the cylinders. So you are not going to experience any lack of power. Nor will your engine necessarily work harder on the highway. Your old Grand Marquis has a four-speed transmission. The new Buicks have six-speed transmissions (many cars now have seven, eight and even nine speeds). With more gear ratios available, the highest gear can be dedicated to highway cruising. That means at 65 mph, your engine probably will be loping along at 1,800 rpm, which is a piece of cake for an engine. That’s one of the reasons you’ll get better highway mileage, too, despite the increased power. The only thing you’ll be unhappy with, I predict, is the rear visibility. But that’s true with almost every new car, as today’s style calls for a rising belt line and a high rear end (and I’m talking Buick here, Bruce, not Kardashian). So be sure to order the rearview camera. But embrace the future, Bruce. I can tell you’d really rather have a Buick. Dear Car Talk: Our daughter was driving her 2005 BMW X5 in town at around 20 mph when it suddenly stopped. She pulled over to the side of the road and tried to start it, with no luck (it acted like it had a dead battery, and would not do anything). It was towed to a BMW

dealer, and the dealer said that the engine had seized. There were no warning lights on when the car died, nor did anything on the dashboard indicate that something was wrong — even after the car died when we turned the ignition switch to “run.” Just the usual lights. What happened, and was there anything that could have prevented the catastrophe? Thanks. — Don The most common reason engines seize is that they run out of oil, or lose oil pressure. If that’s what happened to your daughter’s X5, one possibility is that the oil light was flashing, the orange “warning” triangle was lit up, the chime was ding-dinging, the lifters were clacking like mad and your daughter just didn’t notice any of that. Or she’s too embarrassed to tell you she ignored it all so she could get home to watch “Game of Thrones.” You’d know better than I would, Don. You’re her father. So you know both her fibbing propensity and her obliviousnesswhile-driving quotient. There aren’t many people who would not notice that kind of three-alarm cacophony. Although there are people who would keep driving to “try to get home” rather than pull over and shut off the car right away (which is the proper, engine-saving response). So a more plausible scenario is that the

timing chain broke. In that case, there would have been no dashboard warnings. A timing chain is supposed to last the life of a vehicle, within reason. But if it breaks, the pistons will come up at the wrong time and crush a bunch of the valves, leaving the crankshaft unable to turn. That would lock up the engine, just as if you had run out of oil and melted the crankshaft to the bearings. Could your timing chain disaster have been prevented? Probably, yes. But not by looking for lights on the dashboard. When a timing chain gets loose, which is its first step in breaking, it’ll start to make noise. A lot of noise. That’s something her regular mechanic probably would have noticed. If she has a regular mechanic. And if she took her car to him regularly. So if she had taken the car to a good mechanic every 5,000 or 7,500 miles for oil changes and regular maintenance, she might have been presented with a $1,500 bill for a timing chain replacement (a bummer) rather than a $10,000 bill for a remanufactured engine (a catastrophe). And, in general, that’s a primary reason we recommend regular service to our customers — not just so we can afford HBO. Sorry for your loss, Don. Visit cartalk.com.

FOOD Cool, calm and caffeinated A look at this summer’s coffee and tea trends News from the local food scene

aginwala@hippopress.com

By Allie Ginwala

To ice or not to ice? That is the question coffee and tea drinkers face each year when July rolls in with its hot and muggy days. While some loyalists will always go hot or always go iced regardless of the weather outside, many people make the switch to cold drinks for the summer months. To find out the best way to get a cold caffeine fix, the Hippo spoke with A&E Coffee and Tea owner Emeran Langmaid and The Cozy Tea Cart owner Danielle Beaudette about the latest trends to check out at the cafe or try in your home kitchen.

• Milestone in Manchester: A&E Coffee & Tea will host a weekend of fun and flavorful events to celebrate the one-year anniversary of its Manchester cafe (1000 Elm St., Manchester, 578-3338, aeroastery.com). The milestone celebration kicks off on Thursday, July 16, with a latte art throwdown at 8 p.m. Event is free to attend, $5 to participate in the competition. Other weekend features include performances from local musicians on Friday and Saturday, a craft fair on Saturday and Sunday, and a puppet show from Jonny Clockworks to close the weekend on Sunday afternoon. • Bringing in Bitcoin: Dancing Lion Chocolate (917 Elm St., Manchester) announced in a press release that it began accepting the digital currency Bitcoin in May. “We’ve acquired a pool of regular customers who visit weekly to exchange their bitcoins for chocolate bonbons, ice cream, lunch and beverages,” owner Richard Tango-Lowy said in the press release. Tango-Lowy decided to take digital currency because it met his requirements of being easy to use, secure and low cost. In its first weeks of accepting the currency, Dancing Lion has already become a meeting point for a local Bitcoin group. “I came for the bitcoins, I stayed for the ice cream,” customer Jim Gordon said in the press release. Visit dancinglion.us for more information. • Outdoor brunches: Moulton Farm (18 Quarry Road, Meredith, 279-3915, moultonfarm.com) continues its farm brunch series on Sunday, July 12, from 9 a.m. to noon. Enjoy an outdoor buffet featuring egg and meat breakfast dishes, fresh fruit and baked goods prepared by the farm’s kitchen and bakery staff.

coffee, but pouring over and melting ice and it’s instantly chilled,” she said. For example, if you take 6 ounces of ice and 6 ounces of hot water using this method, you’ll end up with 12 ounces of iced coffee to drink. If you’re looking to mix it up at home, try preparing hot tea like you normally would, then cool it down with ice. Go fruity with raspberry, blackberry, mango and apricot teas or even turn your favorite tea into a fruity smoothie. “If you’re home and want to create a smoothie type drink … adding fresh fruit is a great way to increase the health benefits,” Beaudette said.

In the tea world, trends lately have been leaning toward incorporating taste, health benefits and a strong visual appeal all in one, especially by blending tea with fruits and juices. A&E follows this trend with a white lavender tea, which uses fresh squeezed lemonade instead of water. Matcha is another extremely popular tea, Beaudette said, that also gives a great immune system boost. “They actually grind the leaf in powdered form so you’re ingesting the whole leaf,” she said. “One cup of matcha is the equivalent of 10 cups of green tea.” The Cozy Tea Cart makes matcha smoothies with the option to add a scoop of vanilla bean or green tea ice cream.

While black, green and white teas all have similar health benefits, certain types react better than others when iced, according to Beaudette. Ceylon black teas and green teas both “ice up” nicely, she said, and can be made by brewing it hot and immediately pouring it over ice or with a cold infusion (she recommends brewing the tea overnight because with the cold water, it takes longer to extract the health benefits). For coffee, Langmaid suggests going with a lighter roast. “I would say actually the lighter roasts tend to do better in iced coffee because the clarity and the finish is much better and so they just are more refreshing,” she said. “When you have a darker, heavier roast coffee they tend Brew your own to get ashy when they’re cold, which is not a There are a couple of methods for brewvery pleasant flavor.” ing iced coffee, one of which is cold brewing.

If you’re not sure what style of espresso drink works best iced, like a latte, macchiato, or mocha — don’t worry. Langmaid said there really isn’t much difference. “The definition of those drinks is volume of milk to volume of espresso, so … any of those are really going to work, it’s all based on the size of your cup,” Langmaid said. The one exception is a cappuccino, which doesn’t work in iced form since it’s made with steamed milk. “An iced cappuccino you can’t make, technically,” she said. “[But] I think all of the [other] drinks you can do … that’s the only one that doesn’t work.” For Beaudette, coming up with a summer iced tea blend often draws from a fruity inspiration. “I work a lot with dried fruit and add that to some of our Ceylon black teas and get that fruity black tea flavor,” she said. She’ll also use peppermint, clove, cinnamon and orange peel. Other things you’ll find at The Cozy Tea Shop are lavender-infused lemonade and blackberry and sage lemonade. “It’s another way of infusing your tea into lemonade to get that balance of fruity and sweet all in one,” Beaudette said. When peach season hits the state, they’ll puree peaches to add to peach black tea with a bit of lime juice as well. “Another fantastic tea iced is Moroccan mint because mint, once you ice it, is very cooling. And we’ll add fresh mint to it,” she said. “We like to add fresh herbs.” Langmaid draws from current culinary trends and mixology when creating her blends. “There is certainly a lot of crossover in making your own simple syrups and infusing products and different flavors,” she said. “Milk is a really good carrier for some of that [but] the biggest issue is in the summer you have a lot of fruity type flavors [and] that just doesn’t work with milk. So being able to figure out just from a culinary standpoint [how] to infuse flavors that would still work with milk.”

er’s cheese and cream cheese and fried in butter right in front of the guests on festival day. They’ll be served with sour cream and fresh strawberries, and they’ve already got 1,100 ready to go. While many of the ingredients can be found locally, some of the items require a bit of travel to obtain. A trip to Portsmouth is in order for rye bread, and to Boston for four or five barrels of half sour pickles that aren’t readily available in New Hampshire. “We search around for unique things,” Stu Needleman said. “Anything that’s unique, like corned beef or pickles, we have to go as far as we have to go to get them.” Due to its outreach into the community and reputation for authentic food, Jewish and non-Jewish families alike come together to enjoy the festival. “Once people eat this food it takes them back,” Morgenstern said. “It takes them back to the memories of the old days and wonderful nostalgia that emerges.” “This food comes from the eastern European region and so it appeals to many people,” said Karen Lukeman, who’s in charge of fundraising marketing. Nearly everyone at Temple B’nai Israel gets involved. “The temple is relatively small in terms of membership,” Stu Needleman said. “We will use 65 or so people that day to be serving, [providing] customer service, all kinds of different functions. Virtually the entire congregation is out there serving the community.” The original temple yard sale, now the Nearly New Boutique, will be set up as well, with items contributed by members of Temple B’nai Israel.

What started out as a fundraiser on the grounds of Temple B’Nai Israel in Laconia has grown into a festival of blintzes, corned beef sandwiches and rugelach, attracting hundreds of people from across the state and beyond, ready to get their fill of authentic Jewish cuisine at the annual Jewish Food Festival. “This whole thing really began with a yard sale in front of the temple,” food festival committee member Barbara Morgenstern said. “And there were literally only a few people at the beginning.” Once the temple decided to add a food component, the event started to grow. Morgenstern and the other members of the food festival committee started preparations for this year’s festival right after last year’s. “We gather up and take a look at what happened and determine what we can do better to enhance the customer experience, the food quantities,” Stu Needleman, head of the food festival committee, said in a phone interview. For the past couple of years, the committee has had to increase the amount of food. Last year saw over 500 people, and Sue Needleman, head of food preparation, said they’ll up the ante again this year. “In that short spell that the food festival runs, from 11 to 2, in that time an enormous number of people come through and by the last half hour we’re heading into the kitchen [to see if anything is left over],” Morgenstern said. “It really goes that fast.” Weeks before the festival, the cooking team was already at work making authentic Jewish dishes from family recipes that have been passed down for generations. “We’ve made over 400 pieces of stuffed cabbage, which we serve with rice, and that particular recipe is from an aunt of one of the temple members,” Sue Needleman said. They’ve also made 20 gallons of matzo ball soup, 60 10-inch strudels, 816 latkes (potato pancakes), 1,200 rugelach cookies, 580 potato knishes and 700 meat knishes. “We’ve handmade the dough in a pretty traditional way,” she said. “The meat filling for the meat knishes comes from a recipe that my husband Stu’s aunt would make and she was somebody who came over from eastern Europe in the early 1900s.” With enough meat to make over 600 sandwiches, Stu Needleman said they’ll have pastrami, corned beef and tongue, all cut and cooked by hand at the temple the day of the festival. Some of the most popular items each year are cheese blintzes, made with farm-

Sample tastings every Saturday and Sunday

Two New Hampshire breweries will say cheers to another year on Saturday, July 11, with anniversary celebrations. This time last summer, From The Barrel Brewing went from homebrewing experiment to nanobrewery, bringing a selection of hoppy and darker beers to the state’s craft beer scene. “Because we’re so small we’re able to have a lot on tap at one time, seven or eight at a time,” Distribution and Marketing Manager Jon Anderson said. To mark its first year of brewing, From The Barrel will host an afternoon event with hotdogs, hamburgers and a few new brews. “We have a porter, and we are going to do a bourbon barrel aged version of it and we’re also doing a coffee version of it, getting coffee from a local coffee shop in Derry, The Grind,” he said. “Because everyone likes the hoppy beers, we’re doing a special anniversary double IPA.” A Russian imperial stout, which is a bit stronger than a regular stout, should be ready just in time for the celebration as well. During their soft opening last year, From The Barrel sold out in four hours, causing the brewery to close for a month in order to get a bigger system. While they still come close to selling out most weekends, Anderson said,

Six-year anniversary celebration When: Saturday, July 11, noon to 4 p.m. Where: White Birch Brewing, 1339 Hooksett Road, Hooksett See: whitebirchbrewing.com Free admission. Tours $10 (Proceeds benefit Alzheimer’s Association of MA/NH).

they’re happy with the amount they’re able to produce and the brewery-focused area they’ve settled in. Kelsen Brewing and 603 Brewery are both nearby, as is Moonlight Meadery, making the Londonderry area a hotspot for drinks lovers. “When we came into town we had three small breweries. … It’s kinda turning into this destination type thing,” Anderson said. Looking forward, From The Barrel wants to expand awareness of its beers into more local craft beer stores and get its name out into the seacoast region. “Our goal now is obviously keep up with the tasting room and we definitely want to be more steady and expand our distribution market,” he said. Another birthday brewery bash on July 11 will be held at White Birch Brewing for its six-year celebration. “Every year we’re still in business is another year to celebrate,” founder and brewer Bill Herlicka said. “A little older, a little wiser, a little bigger and hopefully better.” A new draw for this year’s celebration is pulled pork, brisket and sides made by Can U Smell My Pits BBQ pitmasters. They’ll set up on Friday evening and get right to preparing for the next day’s celebration. “To me, this is what I’d want as a customer,” Herlicka said. “[Ages] 21 and over can come in and sample beer, [eat] some pulled pork and brisket.” Every year, Herlicka comes up with a special beer to debut at the event. This year it’s Anniversary 6 DDH DIPA, a double hop, double dry IPA. “It’s a crazy amount of hops,” he said. Also on tap will be small batch watermelon wheat, blueberry berliner and hop session ales. To come up with the anniversary special, Herlicka draws from a few inspirations. “I think about the beers I’ve made for the year and what got people really excited and what I’d have fun doing and then I put it all together and decide what to make from there,” he said. “That’s the fun of craft beer and owning a brewery.”

In 1989, brothers John and David Constant opened a pizza place, because they’d always wanted to start a business, and everybody loves pizza. Inspired by their grandmother’s homemade meatball and bread recipes, they practiced making pizzas for friends and family until they got their recipes just right. Now with locations in Concord (39 S. Main St., Concord, 224-9366, constantlypizza.net) and Penacook (108 Fisherville Road, Penacook, 227-1117, constantlypizza. net), Constantly Pizza is known as a quality community pizza joint where everything from dough to sauce is made onsite daily.

Deviled egg, potato and chicken salad

Deviled Egg, Potato and Chicken Salad Recipe adapted from CountryLiving.com 3½ pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces 1 pound chicken, cooked and cubed or shredded Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 cup mayonnaise 3 tablespoons yellow mustard 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped 3 celery ribs, thinly sliced, plus ¼ cup chopped celery leaves

with Cauliflower, Couscous, English Peas, and Ginger Carrot Puree. for chicken, but in a stroke of genius she decided to add it to make it a more hearty dish. To make the dish more pantryfriendly, you could use canned chicken. Using a rotisserie chicken also keeps the preparation simple. Depending on your penchant for deviled eggs, you could easily use more or fewer hardboiled eggs and cut down on the mustard, like I did. The recipe calls for a jar of diced pimientos, which typically have lost most of their crunch. You could use fresh ones, or add celery or coarsely chopped onion. Similarly, the recipe calls for sweet paprika to garnish. I decided to mix it in with the salad along with some red pepper flakes to give it an unexpected kick of heat. This recipe takes only a few minutes to throw together and is definitely a crowdpleaser. The combination of the eggs, potatoes and chicken creates a hearty picnic side that in a pinch could be offered up as a main course depending on the chicken-to-potato ratio. After tasting the version my friend made, making a few slight alterations and serving it to a few repeat guests, I’ve found this deviled egg, potato and chicken salad is delicious every time. — Lauren Mifsud

During the summer, I love hosting picnics. Some are al fresco dining at its best, complete with four-course meals and candlelight. Others are potluck-style, hamburgers and hotdogs on the grill with slices of watermelon for dessert. I enjoy hosting both equally, despite one being more time-consuming than the other. Last week I hosted a casual potluckstyle picnic, and a friend told me she was bringing the potato salad, deviled eggs and chicken salad. When I told her she didn’t need to bring three things, she assured me it wasn’t any trouble — in fact, it was all one dish. I was skeptical of what sounded like every picnic side thrown into one dish and decided to keep some backup cold apps in the fridge just in case. But to my surprise, the deviled egg, potato and chicken salad was delicious and was the first thing people started taking second helpings of. The classic components of the individual dishes are present but melded into a cohesive recipe. When I recreated this dish for an office potluck the same week, I opted to use less mustard and added chopped celery for a bit of crunch. The potato salad is the strongest component of the dish. As it turns out, when my friend originally found the recipe on CountryLiving.com, it didn’t call

It’s officially summer, and that means going to the beach or a pool. If you’re looking to take your favorite wine along but want to leave the glass behind, this column is for you. Here are some products that are beachfriendly and easier to pack than your typical 750-ml bottle. The best news is that most don’t even require a wine opener. Let’s start with the first step: the bag. A few years ago, my cousin got married and gave us insulated bags as a gift. A fellow winelover herself, she understood the importance of keeping wine and snacks cold. I start here when I want to bring wine on the go. Add a couple ice packs and you’re ready. Once I get to where I am going, my Corkcicle wine chiller is great for keeping white wines cool. I put it in the freezer a day or so in advance to make sure it is nice and chilled. There are other accessories out there like this one, and some let you pour the wine right through them (I also happen to own one of those), making them even more convenient. They can be used not only for trips, but at a social gathering when you may have a bottle out on a table and want to keep it cool. Last year, I received one of my favorite (and most practical) wine gifts to date: a plastic wine cup with a screw-on lid and built-in straw. This is the most beachfriendly wine cup I have seen yet and I will definitely be putting it to use when my family stays in Maine this summer. It is spill-, sand- and shatter-proof — exactly what you want at the beach. Now on to the wines. Once only thought of as a cheap excuse for wine, boxed wine has really come a long way. Bota Box is one of the companies changing things for the better in terms of packaging and taste. It offers wines in 50-ml containers, which are perfect for packing. These little gems are what I call “adult juice boxes.” Pack some straws for added fun, or you can sip right from the package. If you are sharing with a few friends and don’t want to purchase a full-fledged box of wine (the regular Bota Box is the equivalent of four bottles), the company now offers Bota Bricks. This new product is 1.5 liters of wine, perfect for sharing, and was just released last winter in time for this summer’s vacations. And the packaging is recyclable like it has always been, which is good news for the environment. The good news is that Bota Box makes a variety of wines, so there is something for everyone, from moscato and riesling to shiraz and redvolution, a red blend that is

fuller-bodied. Also coming in at the top of the convenience list is Bandit Sangria, which has been called “most beach-worthy” and therefore a “must buy” in my book. This sangria is in similar packaging to the Bota Box, but in a one-liter size that is perfect for sharing, as it equals one and a third bottles.  Bandit Sangria is made from red California grapes and then blended with their own “top secret fruit juices” to create a “party in a box.” Of course they like to toot their own horn but this sangria is very fun and would be refreshing on a hot day. It has aromas of red berries and cherries, with flavors of juicy ripe berries, cranberries and pomegranate. Some carbonated water would add some fizz and pizzazz as well. Bandit suggests enhancing the sangria by adding fruit, an umbrella or carbonated water. They also offer moscato, pinot grigio, chardonnay, Merlot and cabernet sauvignon in the same convenient packaging.  I haven’t seen all varieties around here, but have definitely purchased the sangria and pinot grigio. Black Box offers 500-ml adult juice boxes as well in a wide variety including pinot grigio, chardonnay, Malbec, Merlot and Red Elegance, a red blend that pairs well with grilled meats and chocolate. Many other wine companies like Barefoot, Sutter Home and Gallo offer their wines in smaller, 187-ml four-packs. They are easier to pack than a full bottle of wine, stay cooler longer and have twist-off caps so no opener is needed. The only drawback is they are made of glass, so you should use extra caution.

clubs, writers’ workshops

It could be said that German producer Conny Plank wove the very fabric from which new-wave and techno formed, and it was blind luck (read: intense desire and relentless, mind-breaking work) that put him in the forefront of the early krautrock scene that influenced Brian Eno and Bowie, which led to, well, everything, including credits on albums from The Damned, Scorpions and Clannad. This six-song artifact, discovered recently at Plank’s estate, details another fortuitous circumstance, a chance encounter with jazz legend Duke Ellington, who, facing the twilight of his career, decided to see not just what he could do for the new kid, but vice versa. This consists of three takes each of only two songs, “Alerado” and “Afrique,” the latter being a more ambitious, longer jam, though maybe not as advanced or futuristic, particularly its third version, peppered with beatnik-harkening female scat vocals. Ellington’s big band tries to sound smaller here, and more hip, but Plank was probably more interested in the band’s tightness as he may have been motivated to make the band appear relevant to hippies. OK, maybe it was a tie, but either way it’s a fascinating document, never mind the fact that new, unreleased Ellington material is an incredibly rare thing to experience. A+ — Eric W. Saeger

I mean, the vocals aren’t Ozzy-ish, more reminiscent of the metrosexual wave of apathetic Paul McCartney-soundalike subway fixtures who stared blankly into the endless urban decay while Pavement jammed in their earbuds. But it’s funny, too, intentional or not — the singer screws up royally toward the end of hippy-flutebuoyed “The Garden” and they left it in — maybe they were in a hurry to go watch Teen Mom unironically. But never mind, you want to know what this sounds like, don’t you? OK, the For Dummies version is that it’s like a drunken Beatles jamming all laid-back-like with an even drunker Hendrix (Leslie West to be more precise), 10 times cooler than Jane’s Addiction and thereby useless, but better than — wait a second, ha ha, I almost forgot, there’s some Deep Purple-ish organ on “Mountain,” which is ironic.

PLAYLIST A seriously abridged compendium of recent and future CD releases • Wow man, I remember writing articles about Miami-based mallrapper Pitbull when I was covering the velvet-rope scene, back when he was nothing, which was what I expected him to be forever. Do you children think he’s something now, or do you just sort of handdance on the couch when his beer commercial comes on and say to each other “that’s a pretty ill beat” and then go back to watching your anime cartoons? Regardless, he is starting to look and act like a young version of that bald music-muppet guy from Late Night with David Letterman, so maybe he’ll end up eventually getting a “sidekick” role as a “spin-meister” on some horrible TV late show featuring some negative-IQ dingbat like Dane Cook interviewing your generation’s Matrix ambassador droids, like Taylor Swift and the Biebs, in between making fun of YouTube fails, all while the people of my generation take turns barfing. Pit’s ninth (what?!) album is called Dale, featuring guest spots from Enrique Iglesias and Jennifer Lopez. Hmm. Would you accept those people making fun of YouTube fails, or are they no longer “groovy” and “keen,” like you children say these days? • OK, where were we — woah, cool, a new Chemical Brothers album, that’s pretty neat, isn’t it? Presumably a total schooling in smash-mouth big-beat tech, Born In The Echoes is the name of this new album. Should I dare hunt down a snippet, even if I end up disappointedly giving up on big-beat forever, like the rest of the world has? Oh let’s just do it, let’s go, I have no feeling left after so many years of rock ’n’ roll disappointment. Hmm, the first single, “Sometimes I Feel So Deserted,” in my earbud here isn’t big-beat, it’s chill-funkinfused robo-electro, like Daft Punk but with spazzy nu-rave falsetto singing. I hope no one told them big-beat is dead, or if they did, they at least told them Daft Punk is dead too. • I realize that some of you older Millennials (fun getting ancient, isn’t it?) have heard about the band Sublime With Rome, and you’re all like “Jeez, I wonder if that somehow involves my fave 1990s mall-ska band, Sublime — boy, I’d go check it out if I weren’t so busy applying for jobs at fast food joints and panhandling for fivers on the highway exit ramp.” As a courtesy to you, I will save you some time and let you know that yes, after the singer from Sublime died, there were lawsuits that prevented Eric Wilson and his little friends from just cold going out and recruiting any old YouTube karaoke replacement and calling the band Sublime, so they have a “new” name, and Rome Ramirez is the singer. What’s that? No, I won’t be toddling off to find a sample. Sublime makes me think of too many fake-happy things I detest, so no, thank you. • Yee hah, my fellow Android-tappin’ farmhands, it’s old cowboy Alan Jackson, with a new album called Angels and Alcohol. Love! It! Let’s go listen to some real hillbilly music instead of all that stupid — what?! No samples anywhere? Hmph, Alan must be afraid we’re going to steal all his new oldschool bluegrass songs and load them into our MySpace iPhones and share them in our Dropbox Pinterests. And he’d be right! — Eric W.

a.m., and on the morning of the interview, his wife was already outside, taking bird photography. (Little did she know as soon as she’d leave, a Pileated Woodpecker “the size of New Jersey” would perch itself right outside their window, Sullivan said.) His persistence, he said over the phone, led to some interesting information (not to mention interesting spelling combinations; he said he’d seen Kearsarge spelled in what seemed like 40 different ways). He found notes and letters about Kearsarge hikes on culturally important days — like when Thomas Jefferson was elected president, and shortly after the Emancipation Proclamation — and he learned about presidential candidate Horace Greeley’s last climb, the tornado of 1821 and, most difficult to uncover, a mountainside murder. “I was talking with one lady one day, who said to me, ‘I am so excited, I can hardly wait to read your book! Did you find the story about the murder?’ … I asked her, do you know when it happened? Do you know who was murdered?” Sullivan said. She didn’t; what she did have was a memory of riding with her family to her summer New London house. They’d always pass by the place the murder happened, and every time, she’d close her eyes and make certain the window was closed too. “I [sent inquiries] to about 50 people to get a couple little sensors,” he said. “Then I found a clue that told me the murder dated back to before 1850.” The book will contain oil paintings by Wiggin, a historical overview, photos, images, stories, tall tales and writing about Warner, including two poems by Donald Hall. Readers will find historical maps inside too. “I was born and brought up in Concord, and I lived in Concord for most of my life, but I moved to this area 20 years ago. I enjoy the local history, and I truly believe we can’t know where we’re going until we know where we’ve been,” Sullivan said. “I like to know who used to live here.”

Stir: My Broken Brain and the Meals That Brought Me Home, by Jessica Fechtor (Avery, 271 pages) Jessica Fechtor, you’ve just had brain surgery! What are you going to do next? “I’m going to Disney World!” would have been better than the truth, which was, “I’m going to write a book about it and share all my favorite recipes!” In the worst pairing since chocolate milk and shrimp, Fechtor’s Stir is about “My broken brain and the meals that brought me home.” Fair enough. Lots of books these days offer recipes apropos of little, a nod to America’s foodie culture. Nora Ephron started it, including real-life recipes for mashed potatoes and Key lime pie in her 1983 novel Heartburn. The protagonist in Ephron’s novel was a cookbook writer. Fechtor is a food blogger with a popular website called Sweet Amandine. In Stir, she knits a poignant story of her sudden collapse from a brain aneurism with the mismatched yarn of what amounts to a family cookbook. The result is an occasionally moving but often disconcerting roller coaster of a narrative that begs to drop all the stuff about cooking. The story begins on a treadmill in Stowe, Vt., where Fechtor is attending a conference for graduate students. “I remember all of it: the shifting hum of the treadmill as I cranked up the speed; feeling strong and fast until, in an instant, I wasn’t. It was as though someone had

tossed a giant lead cape over my shoulders.” The devastating event occurred three weeks before Fechtor’s doctoral exams at Harvard (on Russian history and Yiddish), and a month before she and her husband, Eli, were going to begin to try to conceive a baby. Instead, Fechtor found herself strapped to a stretcher and transported to Fletcher Allen Hospital in Burlington, Vermont, where doctors diagnosed a brain

hemorrhage. So, of course…. Let’s bake a cake! Can’t say she didn’t warn us, but as soon as she gets the terrible diagnosis, Fechtor vaults into a discussion of the mystical power of food. “Food is the keeper of our memories, connecting us with our pasts and with our people. A parsnip, for me, is Friday nights. It’s a soup pot simmering with a chicken inside, silk curtains, and my grandmother smelling brothy, salted, and sweet.” Lovely, yes, as is the ensuing recipe for Marcella’s butter almond cake. But this leads the reader beating on the ER door, not thrumming with exquisite tension, but with irritation. Hey, what about the brain hemorrhage? Well, that. It turns out to be an aneurysm, nudged slyly in her brain. But we will not get to that again until we hear about Eli and Jessica’s courtship, which, while pleasant enough, is no more remarkable than the courtship of anyone you sit beside while waiting to get your driver’s license at the DMV. (Eli was “totally annoying” but

“easy to be around, and he made me laugh, and think, and taught me new things all the time. Whenever he spoke, my skin felt more like my own.”) Break for Eli’s oatmeal cookies. However well written, there’s something wrong with a book that leaves you desperate to get back to the brain aneurysm. Even when dealing with the catastrophic event that, in addition to stripping her of the vision in one eye and causing a facial deformity (an indented skull), Fechtor’s narrative suffers from slow-mo. Aneurysms happen devastatingly fast, but they eviscerate lives in dribbles, the blows delivered in slow succession. Example: When Fechtor left the hospital and rehab, a nurse explained that she would only have enough energy to do one thing: “I could wash my hair or my body, not both, before exhaustion sneaked up and kicked me behind the knees. I’d call through the wide-open bathroom door for Eli, who’d wrap me in a towel and help me to the bed, where I’d sit with my heart pounding, sipping cranberry juice until the waves of nausea passed. Then I’d need a nap.” Tough stuff, but Fechtor’s road to recovery throughout three surgeries, as much as we sympathize, often trudges, when we need it to jog. And the recipes, presumably meant to give the book dimension and depth, are roadblocks of gauze. “Sweet Amandine” is a successful blog, and Fechtor is smart and a proficient writer who sometimes morphs into poet. The formula she employs in Stir, however, feels tired — like the book, too, needed a nap. The blog works; the book, disappointingly, doesn’t. But you will like Fechtor and her people (her endearing term for her family) anyway. (Maybe not the recipe for crispy rice and eggs.) C — Jennifer Graham

Book Report

• Harper Lee happenings: The much-awaited Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee (known for To Kill a Mockingbird) comes out Tuesday, July 14, and a handful of local bookstores are celebrating with special events. The newly discovered manuscript, submitted to publishers prior to To Kill a Mockingbird, was thought lost until late 2014, and it contains some of the same characters as Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning book, but in this story, they’re 20 years older. At all Barnes & Noble stores (locally, they’re at 235 DW Highway, Nashua, and 1741 S. Willow St., Manchester) there will be readings of To Kill a Mockingbird from start to finish on Monday, July 13, from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. featuring a variety of special guest readers. Gibson’s Bookstore (45 S. Main St., Concord, 224-0562) also hosts a celebrity readathon Monday, July 13, at noon. (The plan is to be done at midnight, just before the release of the new novel.) And finally, on Tuesday, July 14, the Toadstool Bookshop in Milford (614 Nashua St., Lorden Plaza, Milford, 673-1734, toadbooks. com) will have free samples of Southern fare from its new adjoining cafe. • Historical society’s new director: Sarah Galligan, a member of the New Hampshire Historical Society staff since October 2013, has been promoted to library director at the New Hampshire Historical Society. Galligan previously served as projects archivist and helped lead the process to update and expand the society’s finding aids. She’s also helped update its website, create the New Hampshire History Network and develop a new and integrated catalog for the Society’s archives, library and museum collections. She earned her B.A. in history at Dartmouth and M.A. in library and information science from Simmons College. — Kelly Sennott

Gypsy jazz from Ameranouche By Michael Witthaus

mwitthaus@hippopress.com

Ameranouche derives its name from two words - American and Manouche. The latter is a reference to the gypsy tribe of seminal guitarist Django Reinhardt; the trio’s flamenco-based music is rooted in Reinhardt’s Hot Club de France. For Ameranouche, though, style is merely a means toward duende - an essence of expression that Federico Garcia Lorca, quoting Goethe, called “a mysterious power that all may feel and no philosophy can explain.” “Great artists,” Lorca said, “know that no emotion is possible without the mediation of the duende.” “It is sort of like being in the fiery moment of creation,” said Richard “Shepp” Sheppard, the guitarist who founded Ameranouche in 2005. “It’s a big thing in flamenco playing, something of a pursuit, but it’s really evident in everything — country, blues, whatever. When something is really good, it’s really good.” The band’s recently released album, Sun Shine Soul, finds and surpasses that level. Sheppard and his mates — guitarist Jack Soref and bass player Michael Harrist — serve a cocktail of joyfulness and spellbinding musical chops. Reinhardt’s spirit hovers over the record — there’s a version of his “Clair de Lune” — but it’s a stunningly well-rounded effort, mixing elements of Turkish and Hungarian music, Indian ragas and American soul. Kicking off the 11-track collection is the euphoric title cut, a showcase for Sheppard’s lightning fast picking with slippery bass solos from Harrist, all carried by Soref’s percolating strumming. On “My Old Home” the trio slow down into a sultry groove, with Harrist bowing his instrument to lovely effect.

A cover of the Spinners’ “Could It Be I’m Falling In Love” was an unintended surprise, born spontaneously during sessions for the new record. What Sheppard termed “group enthusiasm” took over. The song began as a loose jam born from an unabashed love of Philly soul and was later polished and rerecorded with percussionist Tobey Sol LaRoche. It’s a rare vocal turn for Sheppard. “Not that I don’t like singing, it’s just that I’m a part-time singer and full-time guitar player,” he said. “We were having fun in the studio and it just happened to turn out in a way where everyone said, ‘Oh my gosh, you have to record this and include it in the CD.’ So we did.” New Jersey-born Sheppard attended Berklee School of Music and later studied with famed guitarist Pat Martino in Philadelphia. After relocating to Vermont a while back, he’s resided in New Hampshire with his wife and son for the past several years. “My wife and I were doing a bunch of jobs together and she got a job so we moved over here,” he said, adding with a laugh, “kind of like gypsies.” Sheppard enjoys the “vibe of the state” and

the reception his band’s music receives here. “More and more, I see people opening up to wanting to have a more vibrant aesthetic in the music and overall awareness of art,” he said. “In New Hampshire, we connect with them.” Ameranouche just returned from a twoweek East Coast tour and is a familiar presence on the regional festival circuit and area venues like Riverwalk Café in Nashua, Portsmouth Book & Bar and Stone Church. On Saturday, July 11, they perform at The Back Room at Mill Fudge Factory. The band last played in the Bristol sweet shop, restaurant and listening room in 2013. Sheppard praised Mill Fudge owner Linda Carmichael, who offers weekly ticketed events and Friday night jam sessions from late spring to early autumn. “She is someone who supports a lot of artists, and is really nice to us … and of course, with Linda you get an ice cream,” he said. “People that work there are … smiling, nice and make the artist comfortable. That is the kind of place that the Back Room is, a wonderful little music venue, intimate and friendly. We are really excited about playing there.”
