GRANITE VIEWS STEPHEN RENO
Breakfast talks When he was in the seventh grade, a young man in my neighborhood and I made a deal. If he could improve his grades, I’d take him to breakfast. About six weeks later, he knocked at my front door and proudly showed me a much-improved report card. That Saturday, we went to breakfast. Over the next 10 years, we had breakfast often, no longer because his grades were getting better, because they were very good, but because we had so much to talk about: his studies, sports he was playing and his longer-range plans. One summer he was accepted into a prestigious science camp, and his interest blossomed. He began working at a local business, eventually being promoted to a managerial role. As the years went by, our breakfast talks touched on college planning, and we went back and forth on the pros and cons of various institutions, especially the cost and the return on investment. He was very astute in his analysis. In time, he was accepted at one of the country’s premier universities. During his college years, our chats became more of a time for him to educate me on some of the intricacies of his business major. We had great fun. Even before his graduation, he’d been offered several fine jobs. Today, just a few months later, he’s settled and well on his way. Perhaps some day, he’ll return to New Hampshire and bring his values, talents and initiative here, joining the young professionals who are shaping the future of the Granite State. Each year, during my time as a university president, I spoke to audiences of parents and prospective students visiting the institution and asked the students three questions. (1) “How many of you have ever bought a computer with your own money?” Several hands would raise. (2) “How many of you have ever bought a car with your own money?” Perhaps one or two hands would raise. (3) “How many of you have ever bought a house with your own money?” No hands would go up. “But you are about to make a purchase — the cost of your college education — that is nearly equivalent to buying a house. Shouldn’t you be as discerning about that purchase as you were on making your others?” At a time when there is great discussion regarding the return on investment of a college education, value for dollars paid is certainly a major consideration. So too is a college’s responsibility to ensure that costs are fair and reasonable. But at the core are the initiative and resourcefulness of the individual. My one-time neighbor demonstrated that.

NEWS & NOTES

Primary update
Billionaire Donald Trump has signed a pledge of loyalty to the Republican party, vowing not to run as an independent candidate in the general election if he fails to obtain the Republican party nomination. This was a win for Republicans who feared an independent with Trump’s stature in the polls would cannibalize conservative voters and give the Democrats a significant advantage. Earlier in August, during the first Republican debate, Trump was singled out for not making such a pledge. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has made criticizing Trump the central message of his campaign for now, according to NHPR. At recent campaign events in New Hampshire, Bush has called into question Trump’s conservative bona fides by pointing to past positions he held. Bush also claimed Trump once advocated for the largest tax increase in the country’s history and Politifact ruled that statement to be ‘true.’ Bush also said Trump’s popularity can be credited to his ability to prey on fear and angst. Meanwhile, Ohio Gov. John Kasich is emerging ahead of Bush, though still behind Trump in the most recent New Hampshire polls. The Wall Street Journal reported his daily TV ads and frequent visits to the Granite State appear to be paying off. At a recent house party in Bedford, host Rich Ashooh said there are three kinds of candidates: “sled dogs,” “lap dogs,” and “show
dogs.” And he described Kasich as a “sled dog.” And in a recent NHPR interview, Kasich promised to reverse President Obama’s name change of Mount McKinley to Denali. The Union Leader reported that former Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s presidential campaign in New Hampshire has all but dissolved. His political director, Dante Vitagliano, joined the Kasich campaign and senior advisor Mike Dennehy stopped getting paid in June. Dennehy said he no longer considers himself an advisor since he hasn’t been contacted by the candidate or his staff since Perry was last in New Hampshire on Aug. 4. He also said Perry had no plans to return to the Granite State. Perry isn’t faring much better in Iowa. NBC News reported he lost both of his Iowa co-chairs to the Trump and Rick Santorum campaigns, respectively. While his campaign is struggling financially, a super PAC backing him has raised nearly $17 million in the second quarter. Super PACs are pulling a lot more weight than campaigns this election cycle. NHPR reported super PACs already paid for $11.4 million out of $15 million spent in primary-related television ads that have aired and have been reserved between now and Feb. 9 with New Hampshire and Boston networks.
Teachers contract
Teachers working in the Manchester School District erupted into cheers when the Board of Mayor and Aldermen passed the contract that had earlier failed under Mayor Ted Gatsas’ veto. The Union Leader reported the aldermen revisited the contract vote after the school board voted “no confidence” in Gatsas and requested a re-vote. It was again vetoed by the mayor, but this time the veto was successfully overridden with an 11-2 vote. Aldermen Bill Shea and Jim Roy voted against, and Keith Hirschmann abstained. Joe Kelly Levasseur voted against ratifying the contract but voted in favor of the override. This is the first time teachers will see an increase in their salaries in more than three years, but opponents fear the deal will increase spending in the city budget to a point exceeding the tax cap in coming years.

Northern Pass
Officials with the project to deliver hydroelectric power from Quebec through New Hampshire held the first of five public information sessions on the latest plan unveiled by Eversource Energy. The Concord Monitor reported most of those who asked questions at the event wanted to know why more of the line wasn’t being buried. When asked why the line wasn’t being buried in Concord, officials said they hadn’t heard widespread outcry from that region of the state. The latest plan has called for burying an additional 52 miles of line through protected forests, creating a $200 million fund for communities the line will go through and setting aside a portion of the hydropower for New Hampshire ratepayers to defray energy costs.
Opioid rules
Gov. Maggie Hassan called on the New Hampshire Board of Medicine to develop more stringent guidelines for prescribing painkillers in an effort to curb substance abuse in the state. The AP reported that Hassan asked the board to select a member to liaise with her office and the attorney general’s office to craft enforceable rules. Hassan says the current guidelines are recommendations rather than rules and are woefully outdated. She points to one patient consent form that contains the phrase, “I am aware that the chance of becoming addicted to my pain medication is very low.” The

Maggie Hassan, who ordered the recall. A spokesperson for the NHLC said it “could have done a more thorough job vetting the guide.”

Candidate access
Are some presidential hopefuls more accessible than others? By Ryan Lessard
news@hippopress.com
While in the past factors like celebrity, security, technology or strategy typically left presidential candidate frontrunners in the stratosphere while the rest pounded the pavement and shook hands, experts say this election cycle may be the exception to the rule.
Candidate status
“With each primary, it had seemed as though [there was] a bit of a dichotomy where top-tier candidates have increasingly become hard to get access to, but candidates who are trying to get traction are still particularly pretty easy to get a hold of,” said Dean Spiliotes, a political analyst and professor at SNHU. In other words, access to candidates varies from one to the next. Spiliotes says that’s because media exposure and public events can either help or hurt a candidate. These things can help build up name recognition and grassroots support, but everything the candidate says and does is being heavily scrutinized, which opens them up to risk. “Typically, candidates who have more to lose tend to be more careful,” Spiliotes said. Some campaigns do this by limiting public appearances or not taking questions that aren’t screened beforehand. “That’s been the rap on Hillary Clinton for a long time, that her campaign really likes to control engagement, when voters have access, all that kind of stuff,” Spiliotes said. Terry Shumaker is a veteran of 10 New Hampshire primaries and is currently working for the Clinton campaign. He says Clinton
has made herself particularly accessible for such a high-profile candidate. “She’s made seven trips to New Hampshire, several of them for two days. She’s done six or seven town halls, taken countless unscreened questions from voters, and she’s one of the best-known women, maybe even best-known people, in the world,” Shumaker said. “She’s coming in New Hampshire and doing it the old-fashioned way.” Still, Clinton, a frontrunner in the Democratic race, received criticism when she roped off the media during a July 4 parade, something none of the other candidates have done. “I think that’s more of balancing the access to voters with access to media,” Shumaker said. Shumaker said that was actually meant to increase access to voters attending the parade, arguing they wouldn’t have been able to see Clinton, who’s 5’7”, behind a national media scrum. Shumaker said he remembers when George H. W. Bush ran for president when he was a sitting vice president, riding around in a motorcade with security details. And if Vice President Joe Biden enters the race, we’ll likely see more of that. “If a candidate is extremely well-known and/or has Secret Service protection, obviously access is going to be different than when I first started campaigning with Bill Clinton here in New Hampshire in the fall of 1991, when he was a little-known governor of a small state in the South with 3 percent name recognition,” Shumaker said. As for the Republicans, Spiliotes says that nearly all of the 18 candidates running are very accessible with multiple town halls and
public events. One exception might be billionaire real estate mogul Donald Trump, who headlines big rallies and riffs with members of the audience who offer up playful banter and occasionally ask questions. When he’s off stage, he’s harder to reach. “One of my concerns about [Trump] is the way he sort of calls in to TV shows. That’s basically a strategy for controlling the engagement with the media,” Spiliotes said. “He’s the first candidate I’ve seen who consistently shows up on the Sunday morning national shows via phone. It’s not something presidential candidates typically do.” But even with all the big-name candidates in the race, Spiliotes says he thinks access to them is higher this cycle than it has been in recent races. “I think if you had asked me before this presidential election cycle, I would have pretty confidently told you that the access is definitely down,” Spiliotes said. “What I am seeing this time with the Republicans, because the field is so crowded, it seems almost as though they’ve reverted back a little bit to try to get traction by doing a lot of events.”
The tech factor
Spiliotes says candidates used to be able to speak more freely in the Granite State at voters’ homes or town halls. Nowadays, they have to be more guarded. The reason? Smartphones. “A lot of it has to do with technology and the sense that candidates, particularly frontrunners, need a little bit more protection from impromptu digital media,” Spiliotes said. He says a lot of candidates have been
undone by cell phone recordings of gaffes. “Whatever is local is also instantaneously national and international,” Spiliotes said. Spiliotes remembers when New Hampshire was a proving ground for candidates to hone their campaigning skills before launching onto the national stage. “That’s no longer the case. Basically, you come up here and you’re immediately fair game for social media, whether it’s Twitter, Instagram or Snapchat, or any one of those apps that people use now. It’s really easy to unintentionally torpedo your campaign because maybe you’re not ready,” Spiliotes said. “It seems as though candidates hold off coming to the state initially because they want to make sure they have all the i’s dotted and t’s crossed before they actually get here.” And Shumaker says there’s been an uptick in media outlets following candidates at this early stage of the election. “Frankly, the number of people covering the New Hampshire primary has increased dramatically with the increase of news outlets, the whole social media phenomenon and online publications, etc.,” Shumaker said. Technology can also be a barrier to candidate access when relied on too heavily by candidates over retail politics, according to Shumaker, and often to the candidate’s detriment. “I think any candidate that relies solely on social media is not going to do well in New Hampshire. People are used to being able to meet the candidates, size them up, often shake their hands or have a short conversation with them,” Shumaker said. “Trying to substitute either television ads or, now, social media for that — it’s a mistake.”
New mayor in Manchester? Queen City mayoral candidates seek to unseat Gatsas
Education and drug addiction are top issues in the campaign for Manchester’s next mayor, and while candidates agree that improvements are needed, they have different ideas as to how to make them happen.
Incumbent Mayor Ted Gatsas is a Republican while his opponents this year are either Democrats or independents. The Democrats are Alderman and former school board member Joyce Craig, former alderman Patrick Arnold and businessman Jawed Alibaba Shaikh. Perennial candidate Glenn Ouellette is an independent the Washington Post once described as a “political gadfly.”
Who's running
Ted Gatsas
By Ryan Lessard
news@hippopress.com
Manchester city elections are nonpartisan, so while candidates for elected office are often affiliated with a political party, that affiliation is not listed on the ballots. The top two vote-getters from the Sept. 15 primary will face off in the general election on Nov. 3 regardless of what party they represent. HIPPO | SEPTEMBER 10 - 16, 2015 | PAGE 6
As an incumbent with the most name recognition, Gatsas enjoys the advantage in the race. He’s already won two re-elections, and his name was floated as a possible gubernatorial candidate in past races. He became the city’s 47th mayor in 2009, and while he enjoyed a 70 percent margin by
more than 6,100 votes when he won his first reelection, he squeezed by in 2013 with just over half the vote, winning by about 940 votes. This year, he's focusing on education and Ted Gatsas public safety. He points to his record of turning the Manchester School of Technology into a four-year school and his involvement in helping create the STEAM Ahead magnet program at West High. “Students are the mayor’s number one priority. The mayor went to Manchester public schools and he'll be the first to tell you that having good teachers ... is very important,”
Andrew Provencher, Gatsas’ campaign manager, said in a phone interview. In the latest city budget, Gatsas put virtually all of the added revenue from the higher tax cap into the school district while flat funding other city departments. Provencher said Gatsas has hosted 10 town hall events ahead of the primary, one for nearly each city ward. Gatsas prides himself on running “positive” campaigns and seldom mentions his opponents.
Patrick Arnold
Perhaps the most well-known of Gatsas’ challengers, Arnold was a sitting alderman when he ran against Gatsas in 2013 and gained 47 percent of the vote. He’s running a campaign of “change” and often rails
against the “failed policies of the status quo.” Arnold argues that the issues with the Manchester School District, such as large class sizes, and persisting problems with drug-driven crime Patrick Arnold are born of a “culture of complacency” that he hopes to do away with. He attempts to link voters’ concerns with Gatsas’ policies and, perhaps seeing a threat from Joyce Craig, includes the alderman in his criticisms. “Mayor Gatsas and Joyce Craig have written the last six years of city budgets, and they claimed that such budgets would fix the city’s problems and were the best that we could do, and they were wrong on both counts,” Arnold said He also criticized Gatsas and Craig for crafting budgets that laid off first responders. “I think the sun has definitely set on the era of Ted Gatsas in the corner office. His myway-or-the-highway style of governing is catching up with him,” Arnold said. Arnold secured the endorsements of the firefighters union, at-large school board member Kathy Staub and school board member John Avard. He also has the backing of major establishment Democrats such as former U.S. Ambassador George Bruno and former U.S. Congressman and Ambassador Richard Swett.
Joyce Craig
This is the first time Alderman Craig has run for mayor, but she’s already secured the support of the SEA, which is the state’s largest union, former Alderman Bill Cashin, State Rep. Joyce Craig Mary Heath and members of the business community like Dyn Senior Vice President David Allen. She highlights her record as alderman, passing an ordinance banning synthetic marijuana and voting in favor of a teachers contract both times it came before the board (overriding Mayor Gatsas’ veto the second time around), and she characterizes her heavy involvement in the city budget as a strength. Craig is critical of Gatsas for not supporting her plan to partially fund a drug court that would help divert more addicts to treatment instead of incarceration. And she says Gatsas has not prioritized education. “It’s time we had a mayor in our city who believed that education is very important. We have families moving out of the city because they don’t trust that their kids will get a good education in Manchester and ... that affects property values,” Craig said. “We now have higher class sizes, we have fewer teachers in the classroom, we have less course offerings, we’ve seen Auburn, Hooksett, Candia
school districts pull their kids from Manchester schools for the reasons I just mentioned.” Craig also says she worked for 15 years in “major advertising agencies” in Boston and hopes to use her marketing prowess to promote the city to businesses that might locate there. She says she wants to attract more retail businesses downtown. If elected, Craig would be the first female mayor of Manchester.
Jawed Alibaba Shaikh
A newcomer to Manchester politics, Jawed Alibaba Shaikh emphasizes his 20 years of business experience. He says he led the telecom company Wireless Link Inc., growing it to Jawed Alibaba national status before selling it for millions. Alibaba is now an investor in about 50 companies, including the Alibaba food stores in the city. He too points to the heroin epidemic and school district woes as the main reasons he’s running for mayor. Alibaba also says poverty is a main concern. “Today, if you look at the city, we have 15 percent of our population living in poverty and under poverty. Teachers are not paid enough to make their ends meet and many businesses are struggling to meet payroll and keep their doors open. Some members of our community are out of work and more are working hard for less,” Alibaba said. He says these problems persist because there is no accountability in government and people are shifting the blame.
Glenn Ouellette
Ouellette’s Facebook page says he owns 52 percent of QCE Publishing, the company that published the Queen City Examiner. The website for the Examiner indicates the last Glenn Ouelette issue was published in 2012. During the 2012 New Hampshire primary, Ouellette opened an office space for “lesser known” presidential candidates. Ouellette has styled himself a media man, but his productions are sporadic. The website qcityexaminer.webs.com describes the Examiner as a free monthly paper and lists Republican State Rep. Will Infantine and former Republican State Rep. Andrew Manuse as partners. In his video address recorded by Manchester Public Television and posted online, Ouellette called himself an independent voice who wants to bring Manchester into the 21st century “before it continues to pass us by” and said City Hall is holding back efforts for change “like an anchor.” Ouellette could not be reached for comment.

Three non-profits join forces to run youth camp
Sonia Wilks is the director of after-school and camp services at the Concord Family YMCA. After 30 years of Camp Spaulding being operated by Child and Family Services, the Concord Family YMCA and the YMCA of Greater Nashua are partnering with CFS to run the camp in what they say is a partnership that is unique to the country. Camp Spaulding in Penacook has been in operation for 90 years and has a newly renovated facility. It finished its last summer session on Aug. 22.

Foreclosures still up
July’s foreclosure numbers are even higher than June’s, which had been the record for monthly foreclosures in 2015. NHPR reported there were 188 foreclosures in July, despite the fact that analysts with the New Hampshire Housing Finance Authority believed the 181 foreclosures in June to be a one-time anomaly. Analysts still believe this increase to be temporary, however. They point to market indicators such as jobs and economic growth, saying neither are on the decline in New Hampshire. One theory that might explain this is lenders clearing out inventory. QOL Score: -1 Comment: Foreclosure totals in 2015 are still below last year’s numbers.

Charter school money
It’s bear season for hunters, but this year may see a decline in bears taken by hunters compared to recent years. NHPR reported bears don’t travel as far and therefore are harder to find during years when there’s plenty of food in the woods. This happens to be one of those years. Also, this is the first year that a ban on using chocolate as bait has been in force. That was put into place after four bears were found dead and toxicology tests found they had overdosed on theobromine, a heart stimulant that’s abundant in chocolate. This year, chocolate pastries and donuts will still be allowed, but in 2016 all forms of chocolate will be banned. QOL Score: 0 (-1 for hunters, +1 for bears) Comment: The number of bears taken by hunters in 2014 was up 20 percent over 2013.

Federal grant money sitting in New Hampshire Department of Education coffers to help fund charter school start-ups is running out. NHPR reported the DOE has about $600,000 left. Officials say that would help fund only one or two more schools. Charter schools rely heavily on start-up aid to help pay for school supplies and salaries. Without the federal money, they would have to raise the funds independently, likely from the private sector. The DOE has applied for another $5.4 million five-year grant but states that have never received the grants will be given priority. QOL Score: -1 Comment: New Hampshire already has 26 approved charter schools.

Deflate-gate done, on to the football season
All Dogs Gym & Inn 505 Sheffield Rd - Manchester NH
The NFL season comes your way tonight with Tom Brady in the starting line-up to do battle with the Steelers in Foxboro, which, thanks to the Deflate-gate saga, is an event with more subplots than a Coen Brothers film. The most immediate note is what Roger Goodell will be doing after not having the guts to show up for a league-wide opener for the first time ever as commissioner. But we’ll save the rest for another day to focus on actual football for seemingly the first time since Malcolm Butler made one of the biggest plays in Super Bowl history. As is the custom in the salary cap era, there is a some transition to make, as after the SB win the Pats will have to figure out how to get back there by replacing or scheming around the departures of several players including Vince Wilfork, Dan Connelly, Brandon Browner and especially Darrelle Revis. As a result they go into this season with some big question marks, along with the usual strengths to face the twists and turns as the season unfolds.

1. The interior of the offensive line: You thought cornerback, right? But unless you’re memory-challenged, you’ll recall there was abject panic around New England when they were just 2-2 after suffering that horrible loss in KC. Some incredibly even thought then it might be time to move on from TB12. But the actual culprit was shoddy play along the offensive line. When Brian Stork and Ryan Wendell got healthy it stabilized, Brady returned to form and all was well. With Connelly retired, Stork out all month, Wendell coming off PUP and just rookies behind them another rough September could be in store. Plus with a stout front line under Rex in Buffalo, maybe even a one in Jetland and Ndamukong Suh now in Miami, getting this right is imperative. 2. Cornerback: It was a strength last year

for the first time since 2004, which not so coincidentally covered the exact time they went between winning SB3 and SB4. Now, you know who is gone, along with Browner and Kyle Arrington, so everyone is new. So we’ll see if Coach B is right about Butler and how the new imports can fill the void. If it’s back to 2011, that dull thud you keep hearing during the season opener will be me pounding my head into the coffee table as guys keep getting open down the field. If not, silence. Let’s hope for is something in between. Top strengths
Quarterback: One of these days Tom Brady is not going to be the full Tom Brady and after turning 38 last month it’ll be sooner than later. But with John Elway able to win twice in his decline this probably isn’t the year to worry about it. Plus after beating Roger the Dodger in court he’s already got one win under his belt. Receivers: Providing all are healthy, from Julian Edelman underneath to Gronk down field, this group moves the chains. I love the addition of Scott Chandler both because he’s another big target in the red zone and because he’s out of Buffalo, where he always killed them. Defensive front seven: I’m a pass rush guy and with Jerod Mayo rejoining Dont’a Hightower and Jamie Collins, Jabaal Sheard being added to the mix and some promising youngn’s along the line they’ve got best group since Richard Seymour’s heyday. They’ll be able to attack from more angles and that’ll help the secondary. Key players who must deliver
1. Malcolm Butler: I don’t really have to say why, do I? 2. Chandler Jones: As I just said, the pass rush is key and a big year from their best rusher sets the tone. 3. Rob Gronkowski: When he plays they have an all-world offense like in 2013 where they averaged 32 points when he played and
20 when he didn’t. Keeping him healthy is key. Surprise offensive player: Jonas Gray – mainly because I thought he’d be pretty good with his burst and quickness. But instead Coach B stunned everyone by cutting him. As a result I don’t think anyone will offer many surprises beyond what is expected of them. Surprise defensive player: Dominique Easley – goes from oft injured rookie who seemed headed to bustville to an interior threat who can get to the QB. If it goes right: Brady is Brady and the secondary better than hoped. If it goes wrong: Difficulties along the front line force Brady to lock on his go-to guys too early and that’s when the TOs happen. The secondary gets lit up regularly. The D in Buffalo and Miami deliver big. Most anticipated games
1. Indianapolis, Week 6. (1) I can’t wait to see what the whiny Indy media writes about the big bad Pats and Deflate-gate. (2) A chance to pay back slimy Colts owner Jim Irsay. (3) Coach B may channel his inner Otto Graham. 2. Buffalo, Week 2. Any game with Rex Ryan is fun, but he gives TB-12 more trouble than anyone and with the defense he has this is a good test for the line. 3. Philadelphia, Week 13. (1) Local lad Chip Kelly brings his brand of football to Foxboro. (2) Get to see local lad and Philly QB Coach Ryan Day in action. (3) By then maybe Chip will see the errors of his ways and will have brought back Tim Tebow. His surprising cut does take a little luster off this one for me. Most overused sports writer phrase
It will be used in describing Jamie Collins as being “freakishly athletic.”

This Week: Home Selling Strategies
F-Cats honor Carpenter Honors: Local lad Chris Carpenter had his number 29 retired by the F-Cats last week. Since they didn’t exist when he was drafted by the parent club in Toronto when they took Carp in the first round in 1993 it seems a stretch to retire it for that. But since they are the hometown team of the 2005 Cy Young winner and dominant postseason star of 2011, who has given generously of his time and worked with the F-Cats in helping to raise over $1 million over the years through the baseball dinner, it is most fitting. A well-deserved honor to arguably the Granite State’s greatest major-leaguer. Congrats. Sports 101: As the season kicks off in Foxboro when the Pats meet the Steelers, who is the active NFL career leader in rushing yards, receptions, touchdowns and being sacked as a quarterback? Hot Ticket: It’s the Manchester intra-city football battle when Central travels to the south end to face rival Memorial on Saturday afternoon. Upset of the Week: To Merrimack’s 2-0 win over defending state champ Pinkerton in NHIAA soccer action when Derek Staradub had five saves in the shutout and Devin Kachmar had the game winner midway through the second half. First Time for Everything Award: To
The Numbers
3 – saves by Lauren Johnson in a 3-0 shutout at Dover in Bedford’s first win of the year with the goals coming from Rachel Philbrick, Brianna Coco and Emily Sabean. 4 – goals scored by Sara (no) Swetland as the Central girls downed Alvirne
freshman Jackie Harrington, whose first varsity goal came in overtime of her his first career game to give the Bedford field hockey team the margin of victory in their 1-0 win over Concord. Tough Injury of the Week: There’s nothing worse than missing your senior season and that looks to be the case for Pinkerton star running back TJ Urbanik. It appears he’s headed for surgery to repair a small tear in his meniscus, which probably will sideline him as Pinkerton tries to repeat as state champions in 2015. Sports 101 Answer: The active NFL career leaders are as follows: Rushing yards, Steven Jackson, 11,388; receptions, Reggie Wayne, 1,070; touchdowns, Antonio Gates, 99; being sacked, Ben Roethlisberger, 414; interceptions thrown, Peyton Manning, 234. On This Date – Sept. 10: 1929 – Golf great Arnold Palmer born in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. 1948 – Bob Lanier, Detroit Pistons great whose feet were so big (size 22) folks said they entered a room at 11:00 and the rest of him gets there at 11:05, born. 1974 – Lou Brock breaks Ty Cobb’s all-time baseball stolen base mark at 105. 1992 – Bud Selig becomes “interim” baseball commissioner.
7-4 in NHIAA soccer action. 4 – combined goals from Josh Bauer, Ryan Sledjeski and the Keiffer brothers Mark and Connor in Bedford’s 4-0 win over Dover. 5 – goals from Nate Gaw as Londonderry scored a whopping 11 times in waxing Spaulding 11-0 when Owen Creed added three scores for the Lancers.

Sports Glossary
Deflate-gate: Minor little controversy during the spring and summer of 2015 that got roughly the same attention as minor past news stories like World War II, Neil Armstrong landing on the moon and the O.J. murder trial. Roger Goodell: Fan favorite around New England and son of former New York senator Charles Goodell. In bungling the Ray Rice and Greg Hardy domestic assault cases, the Adrian Peterson child abuse case and the Deflate-gate fiasco, the doofus NFL commissioner, who lost in court again last week, has had a worse last 12 months than the entire Red Sox starting rotation. And just think, all the league paid him to do that was $44 million! Charles Goodell: Appointed by Gov. Nelson Rockefeller to serve out the senate term of Robert F. Kennedy following his assassination after winning the 1968 California presidential primary. He became a candidate when the term ended in 1970 on the Republican and Liberal party tickets — as only can be done in the insane political environment of New York — then lost to fellow Republican James Buckley, who ran as a conservative only because he lost the GOP nomination to Goodell. Otto Graham: Redskins coach with the major killer instinct. Exhibit A: Nov. 28, 1966, he called time out in the final seconds to have Charlie Gogolak attempt an unnecessary 29-yard field goal with the Skins up 69-41 on the hapless 1-8-1 NY Giants. Gogolak hit it to make it 72-41 as time ran out.

Some people run away from tragedy. Others, like James Nachtwey, run toward it — though in Nachtwey’s case, tragedy often finds him, which is how the war photographer found himself in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001. The Currier Museum of Art’s latest show, “Witness to History: James Nachtwey — Afghanistan, Ground Zero, Iraq,” is on view Sept. 11 through Dec. 14 and takes a look at this tragedy and others he’s seen first-hand.
About Nachtwey
Nachtwey was born in 1948 and graduated from Dartmouth in 1970. He began his documentary photographing career in 1980 and has spent the better part of it in wartorn countries. His portfolio? The break-up of Yugoslavia. The war in Chechnya. Civil unrest in Northern Ireland. The genocide in Rwanda. Liberation struggles in South Africa. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict. So it was unusual that he was in his New York City loft the morning of Sept. 11. He’d flown in from France late the night before, according to an old Time magazine article. He’d only just had a cup of coffee when a crowd of people outside his window caught his eye. They were pointing up toward the sky — at the north tower of the World Trade Center, which was in flames. Nachtwey packed his cameras, loaded the film he had and ran toward the disaster. The photos he took that day are among the most iconic images of the attack. But by coincidence, Nachtwey had also photographed in Afghanistan in the early ‘90s when the Taliban had come into power and allied themselves with Al Qaeda. Post-9/11, he traveled back to the country and to Iraq to document the war.

James Nachtwey, Sign in Times Square, 2001 (printed 2014), digital chromogenic print, Currier Museum of Art, Manchester, New Hampshire. Museum Purchase: The Henry Melville Fuller Acquisition Fund, 2014.22.7. James Nachtwey.
Origins
Currier curator Kurt Sundstrom said Currier staff had been looking into acquiring some Nachtwey photos for the museum’s collection even before the 2013 photo exhibition, “Visual Dispatches from the Vietnam War.” But when he met Nachtwey in New York to see the work, it was hard to fathom just choosing a handful. It turned into eight. Then 10. Then 12. “And finally, we ended up on 17. We created what we called the 9/11 portfolio internally,” Sundstrom said during an interview at the museum a few weeks before the show’s opening. A handful of prints had just arrived and were assembled in the space, as was a miniature gallery model, tiny Nachtwey photos tacked on its walls. “And then we said, well, why don’t we just do a show?” Sundstrom said. After all, Sundstrom said, Nachtwey is considered the greatest war photographer working today. And while each individual photo has incredible composition and narrative, Nachtwey also had plenty of material, enough to create an even larger story about the war and its effects.
The show
This exhibition’s content is not for the faint of heart. It’s divided chronologically into five parts: Afghanistan pre-9/11; New York City during 9/11; Afghanistan post-9/11; the Iraq war; and the aftermath, when American soldiers come home. Stories behind some of these images are available via video and audio. Wall text is a little more sparse than usual. “Mostly because we want people to look and reflect on the sacrifice, rather than the art
or historical connections,” Sundstrom said. Crushing buildings, injured civilians and haunted soldiers are some of the many subjects within the 24 prints, 17 owned by the Currier, lining the walls. Some have been in news publications like Time or National Geographic. Others have never seen public eyes before. The most expansive piece is “The Sacrifice,” a 32-foot-long mosaic made up of 60 photographs, taken in American military units in Iraq. Within the show, viewers will find context to the happenings, including a timeline of significant events from 1989 (in Afghanistan) to today. They’ll also find the consequences of war in numbers — how many people were killed in the World Trade Center (2,753) and how many Afghan (26,000) and Iraqi (133,000) civilians have died as a result of war or by direct violence. How many uniformed American men and women have died in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan (6,800), and how many who do return home have high mortality rates due to drug overdose, suicide or vehicle crashes. On a separate wall there’s space for viewer responses and visitor photos.
Quality
“He’s never printed at this level before in his career,” Sundstrom said. “He’s had museum shows, but they’re just usually of his black and white photographs. We wanted to do this in a larger scale.” One of the reasons for putting on this show was to showcase how talented Nachtwey is, not just as a documentary photographer but also as an artist. He pointed to the high detail of Nachtwey’s prints — he clearly must have spent hours editing, Sundstrom said — and to the compo-
sitions, which, remember, were taken quickly during extreme duress. “James was able to capture the scale of the destruction,” Sundstrom said, gesturing to “Firefighters at Ground Zero,” which looked, in Sundstrom’s words, “like the gates of Hell opened up.” One of Sundstrom’s favorites: “Signs in Time Square.” A flag waves overhead, and on a digital screen, signs flash. One says “Wow is too small a word.” Another, “The rocket’s red glare.” “And it’s a photograph! But it’s almost a collage that he created. Instead of cutting things out, he’s waiting for it all to come together,” Sundstrom said. “James is regarded as the greatest war photographer working today.”
Responses
Before the show opened, Currier staff brought in about two dozen viewers to see it — veterans, soldiers, refugees from Iraq and Afghanistan. Some cried. Others said nothing. “We wanted to make sure we were being sensitive. Because we had this one perspective on this, and we wanted to have multiple perspectives,” Sundstrom said. “The American veterans, some of them didn’t want to talk because it was just still too raw for them. But the one who did talk, he said, ‘I still see this stuff every day. This is nothing new.’ Or, ‘I have images of this stuff on my phone.’ So it’s nothing shocking to them, but what it does do, is it brings back memories that they may have pushed down.” But then, a show like this is supposed to elicit strong reactions. While staff have tried to keep politics out of it, there’s enough content that visitors should get the message. “I’m hoping people’s responses will be, we need to make these decisions [to go to war] a little more carefully,” Sundstrom said.

• Inaugural Andy’s auction: The Andy’s Summer Playhouse Fall Auction happens Saturday, Sept. 19, in Keller’s Yellow Barn, 605 Issac Frye Highway, in the old Wilton Center off Route 101 (two doors down from Andy’s). Registration and silent auction is from 5:30 to 7 p.m., and the live auction starts at 7 p.m., with all proceeds going to the youth summer theater company. Up for auction: fine art, services, signed books, New Hampshire products, local wine and beer, handcrafted items, overnight stays (fishing trips out of Boston, ski trips with Dublin School professionals), etc. The event happens because of Andy’s up-and-coming actress Grace Keller, said Andy’s artistic director Jared Mezzocchi in an email. Keller came to the board with the idea and followed up personally with the Wilton community, where she gathered people to help and auction items. “It was an incredible discovery for us adults, when she came to us and launched into her already-planned idea,” Mezzocchi said.

Celtic Fest celebrates halfway to St. Patrick’s Day By Angie Sykeny
asykeny@hippopress.com
St. Patrick’s Day may still be six months away, but for Manchester Irish pub Wild Rover, it’s never too early to wear green. Join them in celebrating Celtic heritage — and the halfway point to St. Patrick’s Day — at their 24th annual Celtic Fest on Sunday, Sept. 13, held on Kosciuszko Street and the parking lot behind the pub. The fest will feature a 5K race, vendors, food and drink, live entertainment and more. “Celtic Fest is just part of the fabric of Wild Rover,” Tom Puskarich, event coordinator, said. “For St. Patrick’s Day, we can’t have anything as elaborate as [Celtic Fest] because it’s during winter, so this is a way to have that Celtic and Irish celebration at a time where we have a better shot at the weather.” The fest will begin with raceday registration for the Halfway to St. Patrick’s Day 5K from 8 to 10 a.m., along with $3 Bloody Marys, Bailey’s coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Puskarich said that most years, between 1,500 and 1,600 people participate in the race. The Celtic Fest Where: Wild Rover Pub, Kosciuszko Street When: Sunday, Sept. 13, 5K registration is 8 to 10 a.m., the fest is 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Cost: Free admission. 5K online registration (millenniumrunning. com/halfway) is $30 for adults 21+, $25 for youth ages 12 to 20, and $10 for kids ages 11 and under. Race day registration is $35/$30/$10.

first 600 registrants will get an Irish kilt to run in, the first 1,000 will get an Irish tech shirt and all 21+ registrants will get a beer ticket redeemable at Wild Rover during the festival. The race will begin at 10:15 a.m. at the corner of Spring and Elm streets and proceed up to the North End, then back down Chestnut Street, ending at the pub. For the first time this year, Manchester’s Mayor Ted Gatsas will be walking the 5K. He will present the race awards at 11:45 a.m. and declare the day St. Baldrick’s Day. St. Baldrick’s Foundation is a nonprofit that raises awareness and funds for pediatric cancer research. Wild Rover has partnered with them for the last nine years to make Celtic Fest a charity fundraiser. From 11 to 11:45 a.m., and after 2 p.m., St. Baldrick’s

Canterbury Artisan Festival celebrates traditional arts
With special guests The Dogfathers

If you’ve never seen blacksmithing, leather making or glassblowing in action, stop by the Canterbury Artisan Festival on Saturday, Sept. 12, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., at Canterbury Shaker Village, which will feature a variety of traditional craft demonstrations, a juried craft fair, a farmers market, agriculture demonstrations, kids’ activities, live music and more. “We wanted to develop a fall [event] where people could learn about the Shakers and their traditions,” Funi Burdick, executive director of Canterbury Shaker Village, said. “Shakers have this wonderful legacy … so [the festival] lets us see what artisans are doing today and how that legacy can be connected to modern life.” The festival began three years ago as a small craft fair but has since grown; around 60 New England artisans will participate this year, some returning and some new. For the first time, the festival will take place throughout the whole village rather than in one condensed area, which Burdick said will encourage people to explore and experience the atmosphere of an authentic, operating Shaker village. The juried craft fair will have a wide range of crafts, including fabrics, hand-knits and wovens, jewelry, pottery, wooden items, paintings, toys and more. There will be other handmade products such as soaps and oils as well as produce and prepared foods at the farmers market. Traditional craft demonstrations will be held both inside and outside and will include coopering, blacksmithing, basketry, pottery, woodcarving, letterpressing, oval box making, spinning, weaving, knitting, glassblowing, leather making and more, as well as presentations on do-it-yourself teas and historic building restoration.
At 11:30 a.m. and 2 p.m., a dance troupe will give a lecture and demonstration on “The Craft of Dance Making,” where they will talk about the key components of dance and perform a variety of contemporary dances. “This is where the Shakers had their meetings and where their expression of dance happened, so it’s a wonderful place to have a modern [dance] interpretation,” Burdick said. “It’s a way to see how artists can take part in tradition but also expand our definition of what traditional art is.” Kids can participate in various crafts like making apple cider, yarn dolls, bird feeders and head wreaths. Picnic tables will be open and soups, salads and food off the grill will be available for purchase.

Fall treats us to vivid leaf color and some colorful perennial flowers blooming, but there are relatively few fall-blooming trees and shrubs. The PeeGee Hydrangea is one everyone has seen. Look in any old cemetery and you 56 N. Main St., Concord NH | 603-856-0110 | www.hilltopconsignmentgallery.com 102488 will see them loaded with fluffy white panicles, each with hundreds of small blossoms. The flower clusters on a PeeGee hydrangea are slightly pyramidal in shape and can be up to 12 inches long and 8 inches wide. Sometimes I will cut off the tips of the blossoms before they are fully developed in Why martial arts is good for kids: August. That makes the panicles roundish, A focus on improvement & concentration but not so likely to bend their stems to the ground after a rain. There are plenty other hydrangeas to pick from, and each year more new cultivars are on the market. I particularly like Tardiva. It blooms a little later than the peegee, and its flowers are more pointed and Manchester School of Tae Kwon Do airy.

terfly bush and got one seedling that I grew for 10 years or so. Then it died after a bad winter, and I have never tried growing it again. Maybe I should. The reason I didn’t was simple: in Zone 4 it dies back to the ground each winter, and in my case it didn’t start to bloom until late in the fall and was stopped in its tracks by the first hard frost that came along. But my friends at Cider Hill Gardens say they have had theirs for 25 years. And it was loaded with buds in mid-August, and a few blossoms had already opened. The small blossoms are arranged in long panicles and are delightfully fragrant. It attracts bees and butterflies. Flowers can be lavender to purple in color, and there are many dozens of named cultivars. In southern New England, the stems are woody and do not die back in winter. The Seven-son Flower tree is another fall bloomer. It’s very fast growing: mine will grow stems 5 to 6 feet long in a season. It was small white flowers that start opening in late August or early September, and are a bit subtle, not at all overpowering. I love it for its winter look. The bark is gray and shaggy. Mine is 15 or 20 years old, and I keep it at about 15 feet tall. A few years ago I tried something different with my Seven-son flower tree: I pollarded it. That means each year I cut off all the new growth. The tree develops knobs of scar tissue at the top of each major stem (at 12 to 15 feet off the ground). Each spring dozen of straight, vigorous new stems grow from each knob – pointing in every direction. This is a special look, not for everyone perhaps. But it keeps the tree from getting too big or rubbing up against the house. We can’t all grow everything, but I do believe everyone should have a hydrangea of some sort. They are tough as nails, and will please you for the rest of your life (with just a little annual pruning to keep them in shape). Henry can be reached at Gardening-Guy. com. He is a UNH Master Gardener living in Cornish Flat and is the author of five books.

My mother is looking to sell her 1950 geo. z. Lefton ceramic cookie jar and teapot set. Any idea what this might be worth? The only item stamped is the plaque (1950 geo.z.left on 4467). A Hippo reader Dear reader, Your mother’s set is a sweet one. You don’t usually see so much of a set left today from the 1950s. Lefton China of Chicago, Illinois, imported all kinds of china from the 1940s, when it was started by George Zoltan Lefton, to the present day. They are known for many patterns, figurines, cookie jars and sets such as yours. The nice part of your pieces is having so many that match and even the wire rack as well. The condition looks great, and the value would be in selling it complete to a collector. I think the best marketing for this would be to try to find someone who can put it on the Internet. While I’m not a big beginners, or those who are looking for tips to improve their public speaking skills. Offers instruction on delivering professional, confident and well-articulated presentations. Participants give several presentations through the day and receive constructive feedback. Sat., Sept. 12, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nackey S. Loeb School of Communications, 749 E. Industrial Park Drive, Manchester. $50. See loebschool.org or call 627-0005.

fan of selling out of state, I think the values on a lot of Lefton pieces are regional and bring much more on the West Coast than they do here in New Hampshire. If you could find someone or do it yourself for her I would think the value should be in the $100-plus range to a collector for the set. It’s tough to tell what someone might pay if they want it badly enough. But I think for an appraisal value I would start there. If you don’t want to sell online, I would try a consignment gallery to be able to display it.

IN/OUT CAR TALK
Don’t go rogue with transmission fluid Dear Car Talk: I have a question about using tractor hydraulic fluid in place of Dextron transmission fluid in my car. Do you have any opinion on whether it is a suitBy Ray Magliozzi able substitute? Better? Worse? I have heard valid arguments in both directions. — Marc I’ve never used tractor hydraulic fluid in a transmission. I did use it once in a salad, but that was by accident. Here are my thoughts on why it’s not worth the risk: About four or five decades of research and development have gone into perfecting the molecular design of Dextron transmission fluid, which GM uses and recommends for all of its cars. They’ve gone from the original Dextron, back in the 1960s, which used sperm whale oil as a lubricant (no joke), to the current-generation fluid, called Dextron VI. It’s formulated at what GM engineers consider just the right viscosity to operate the transmission correctly, control for heat, optimize fuel economy and lubricate the transmission parts to protect them from damage. And they’re the folks who have to war-
ranty your transmission and pay for its replacement if something fails. So I’d lean toward their recommendations. I’m not saying tractor fluid wouldn’t work — it is hydraulic fluid. But why would you risk it ... unless you were able to steal the tractor fluid from work? Seriously, you’ve got a $3,000 transmission in your car, Marc. Adding 10 quarts of Dextron costs about 30 bucks. And you’re only going to change the fluid once or twice during the life of the car. So you’re not saving money. Dear Car Talk: We have a 2000 Lexus ES300 with 242,000 miles on it. About eight months ago, we noticed a gas smell at idle when sitting at stoplights. We took it in to our mechanic of 10 years, and, of course, there was no smell. But being a good mechanic, he checked the car thoroughly for us and found nothing. It happens intermittently, and each time we take it in — of course — it doesn’t smell for our mechanic, nor can he find anything wrong related to the fuel system. Initially, we noticed it only when stopped and at idle, and then we found that when we turned off the AC system, the smell would go away. Now it doesn’t matter if the AC is on or off, and when it does smell, the smell is worse. Noth-
ing is seen on the ground or on the engine, per our mechanic, who checks it for us every time we bring it in for servicing. Otherwise, the car still runs like a Swiss watch, and I was hoping to get another 100,000 miles from it. HELP! — Dan You may remember that some years ago, when you went in for your state emissions test, the mechanic would have you run the car, and he’d stick a wand in the car’s tailpipe. That emissions wand was designed to detect minute quantities of unburned hydrocarbons in your exhaust. You were allowed only a certain number of parts per million, or you’d fail the emissions test. Well, guess what the best-known unburned hydrocarbon is? Gasoline! So nowadays, we use that old emissions wand to find small gas leaks. That’s what I suggest your mechanic try. It’s basically a mechanical sniffer, and it works great. So he can open the hood, fire up the wand and poke around the engine with it. If there’s any gasoline leaking at all, the meter will go nuts. I’d look in places where rubber meets metal. The fuel pump sends the fuel from the tank to the fuel rail. Coming out of the fuel rail, six rubber hoses carry fuel to each injecCELEBRATING tor. So for each one of the injectors, there’s

a place where the metal of the fuel rail connects to rubber, and then rubber connects to an injector. Those are likely places for leaks. It could be a bad clamp. It could be one or more bad injectors. Or it could be that the rubber is just getting porous after a quarter of a million miles of use. There are other rubber fuel lines, too, from the fuel pump to the rail, to the fuel filter, and the fuel return line, and it could be any of them. But if there’s an active leak, the wand won’t miss it. You wouldn’t necessarily see anything on the ground or on the engine. Gasoline has an extremely strong smell, so it only takes a small amount for you to really notice it. When the car is moving, it dissipates. But when you’re stopped, it gets sucked into the fresh-air vent in front of your windshield, and then blown into the passenger compartment through the vents. To increase your mechanic’s chances of success, leave the car with your mechanic overnight one night, and let him test it in the morning with the wand. If it’s so intermittent that the the wand doesn’t find it, then have him replace every one of the car’s rubber fuel lines. That’s a cheap way to start before you begin replacing injectors.

Jason Lalla
Prosthetist and clinical manager Jason Lalla is a certified prosthetist and clinical manager at Next Step Bionics and Prosthetics in Manchester. Explain in one sentence what your current job is. I am a prosthetist, so I am involved in the fitting and patient care associated with providing a prosthetic limb for people who have had amputations. How long have you worked there? A little over 10 years. How did you get interested in this field? I’m an amputee myself. I lost my leg in a motorcycle accident in 1989. That was kind of my introduction to this world. I went through the process myself and realized how important this is to individuals. It really dictates people’s abilities and their lifestyle…
The prosthesis fits so intimately that if things aren’t right, it can really be detrimental to what you’re able to do throughout the day. What kind of education or training did you need for this job? That’s kind of started to shift. At the time, it was a bachelor’s degree, which is usually heavily loaded with the math and sciences, and then on top of that, when I went through schooling it was a six-month program. It was five days a week, eight hours a day for six months straight. That was kind of the clinical, hands-on educational part.

What’s brewing in the capital
As part of Weekend on the Water, a twoday event celebrating Concord’s stretch of the Merrimack River, Capital Cup Brewfest returns for the third year with beers to sample from over 25 breweries. “There’s lots of different festivals through the state, and he really wanted to create something in his hometown,” Simon Keeling, Weekend on the Water committee chair said of NH Distributors’ Chris Brown, who came up with the concept of bringing the brewfest to Concord. A partnership between Rotary Club of Concord, Concord Parks and Recreation, Concord Crew and NH Distributors, the Weekend on the Water Capital Cup Brewfest is just one of the components of the weekend-long festival in Concord. Also on Saturday, Sept. 12, check out the Dragon Boat races on the Merrimack from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Teams of 20 paddlers, a drummer and a helmsman face off in an Eastern Regional Dragon Boat Association qualifying event. If a leisurely trip through town is more your style, take a Super Tours Duck Boat Tour, offered at 10 a.m., 11 a.m., noon, 1:30 p.m., 2:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. Tickets cost $5 each. The city-wide tour includes the NHTI campus, McAuliffe-Shepherd Discovery Center, Capitol Center for the Arts, the State House and surrounding historic buildings and the site of the original Concord Coach factory. Throughout the day Saturday, enjoy live music and kids’ activities. Head back to Riverfront Park on Sunday, Sept. 13, for the Concord Crew Regatta from 8 a.m. to noon and the popular rubber duck race at 1 p.m. See thousands of rubber ducks race down the river for the chance to be one of the first ten to enter the duck trap and win cash prizes. Ducks cost $5 each or five ducks (also called a Quack Pack) for $20. Other events during the day include food vendors, a 30-plus vendor craft fair, live music, a rock climbing wall from EvoROCK & Fitness and kids’ activities.

weekend of events is geared toward young adults, with Dragon Boat races and Super Tours Duck Boats. A brewfest seemed like a natural fit. “It’s a good base of a crowd to pair those … and really try to bring a lot of attention to the river as well to the Concord community,” Keeling said. “[We] felt that if we all did our own events to a certain extent and brought them together it would bring someOther drink fests this weekend The 19th annual New England Homebrewer’s Jamboree will be held at Tamworth Camping Area (194 Depot Road, Tamworth) on Friday, Sept. 11, and Saturday, Sept. 12.

The first 400 people will also get a commemorative glass. “They can go in and sample and taste the beers from the different brewers and walk around,” Keeling said. With the breweries set up in a circle, the free flowing format allows guests to taste and chat with the brewers in an open, outdoor setting. Each brewery typically brings a couple brews to sample, Keeling said, like a popular beer as well as something seasonal or new. “Brewfest is very affordable too,” Keeling said, noting that the $20 day-of ticket price is lower than other brew festivals in the area. Since both Weekend on the Water and Capital Cup Brewfest began three years ago, Keeling said the number of overall attendees has increased, with 2,000 people heading to the waterfront last year.
An evening of wining and dining
Since the late ‘80s, Strawbery Banke Museum’s annual fall fundraiser has taken many forms, from evening galas to car shows. But for the past handful of years, Vintage & Vine has given guests the chance to dress up, enjoy a night out and support the museum. “We have over 40 restaurants all from
ent restaurants that are bringing some really special dishes,” Shellenbean said, noting Ristorante Massimo and Martingale Wharf, among others. A final food feature is the star chef demonstration, where four chefs will be grilling onsite for guests to see and then sample. “The vast majority of food is the restaurateurs bring[ing] it from the restaurants, but these four will be showing off their culinary skills right on the grounds,” Shellenbean said. This year’s star chefs are Brandon Blethen of Robert’s Maine Grill, Julie Cutting of Cure, Steve Harding of Garden Grille and Dennis Margera of Poco’s Bow Street Cantina. As far as she can remember, Shellenbean said this event has always been held in the fall, a fitting time to spend an evening outdoors. “We’ve been out all summer enjoying the beaches and on vacation and September is kind of a chance to come home and really use those last warm days to appreciate what we’ve got,” she said.

the area and we’ve got wine brokers and vintners from all over the country who come out and set up tables under tents throughout our grounds,” Alena Shellenbean, manager of special events, said in a phone interview. Guests have the chance to wander the museum’s nine acres during the evening, taking in the gardens and architecture while tasting plenty of food and wine. “The buildings themselves aren’t open, but the grounds are and all the houses can be seen from the outside,” she said. “It really is a walk-around sort of event.” Partnering with the New Hampshire Liquor Commission for the event, all of the wines available for tasting can be purchased in the state’s outlet stores. “It’s a really good chance to try a bunch of new wines,” Shellenbean said, “wines made all over the world and available in New Hampshire.” Some of the wineries represented are local, such as Zorvino Vineyards, Flag Hill Winery & Distillery, Jewell Towne Vineyards, Sweet Baby Vineyards and Moonlight Meadery. Others will be poured from Crush Wines, Perfecta Wine Company, Southern Wine & Spirits, Pine State Beverage and Martignetti Companies of NH. Guests can visit over 31 tables pouring up to a dozen wines each and chat with representatives who can answer questions and share more about the wines being tasted. The restaurants at Vintage & Vine all come from the surrounding area, each with a bite for guests to sample. Participating restaurants include Row 34, Brazo, Anju Noodle Bar, Blue Mermaid Island Grill, Three Chimneys Inn, Breaking New Grounds, Vida Cantina and more. “And we have a VIP area that has the higher-end wines to try and a few differ-

During the trial-and-error period, Niemi made test batches to create what is now their standard nitro blend. She started with their iced coffee blend — because she already knew it tasted great cold — and tweaked it from there. While she was testing the process, Niemi worked in the cafe basement without the full system setup. “It was a little difficult,” she said. “We had a tap hooked up to it, and I was just going down and testing it every few days, seeing how long it took to gas up, the ideal range of how much gas we should be putting into the actual product. Once we got the systems installed we could really go from there.” Langmaid said her hand in the process really came in terms of getting the systems, and backup systems, up and running. “We had to change our counter, get the componentry for both locations, and then get all the componentry for the backups,” she said. “Things that are totally foreign to us in the coffee world but are just standard in the bar world.” They worked with Blue Line Draft to set up a whole host of new equipment, including the kegerator, taps, gas tanks, regulators and kegs, and also to make sure everything was lined up and cleaned properly.
From keg to glass
Making nitro cold brew coffee is not a job for the impatient. The entire process takes over two and a half days, starting with cold brewing the coffee. A&E steeps the coffee in cold water for 18 hours (the suggested range for this process is 12 to 24 hours, but Niemi said 18 hours seems to be the best for what they want the end concentrate to be). After that, the coffee concentrate goes through a double filtration process before it goes into the keg. “You take the cold brew, you put it into the keg, then we dilute it with water. It’s a very concentrated cold brew,” Niemi said. “Then we tap the keg, essentially.” They add the gas, which takes two days to get the proper amount of nitrogen, bringing a slight carbonation to enhance the freshness. “[Then] after two days you pull it right off the tap, and it pulls just like any Guinness or nitrogenated beer,” she said. When poured, the coffee looks just like a beer, the cascade effect clearly visible as the glass is filling, ending with a creamy head on top. Try nitro cold brew coffee

“Most people think it’s going to be really heavy and sit really heavy on your palate,” she said. “Actually, the body starts out like a stout and it really brightens up at the end.” Ideally it’s served in-house in a chilled glass, just like you would do with a beer. “We wanted people to treat it like a beer. You wouldn’t put ice in a beer, you wouldn’t put a straw in a beer,” Niemi said. “So to get the full experience you really want to sit down and enjoy it in a glass.”
Coffee community reaction
Recently, cold brew coffee has become trendy in the coffee world (Starbucks now offers it on their menu) but overall, nitro cold brew is still relatively unfamiliar to many people. Heide Conlin, owner of Breaking Bean Coffee in Hampton, knew she wanted to have nitro cold brew coffee on the menu when she opened in June. “[I] wanted to set myself a little apart from everybody else,” she said in a phone interview. She put the tap right in the middle of her shop. A few days before the grand opening, she started getting texts and phone calls from people who saw it through the window. “So I started giving out samples,” she said. “I’m always one for just kind of changing it up a little bit so it’s not stagnant, trying to be a little edgy and cool and different, and this definitely has put me in a [good] position in this area.” “I would say people that enjoy a ... nitrogenated beer would be drawn to it more,” Niemi said, “but I don’t think it alienates those people who don’t drink beer. If you’re not a beer drinker or not 21, people can definitely get behind it.”

Zucchini It’s happening again: zucchini is everywhere. It’s in my garden, overflowing at the farmers market and under my bed. OK, it’s not under my bed but it does seem like it’s everywhere. This is the point during the summer where I can get a little sick of this Italian squash. I’ve grilled it, sautéed it and frozen so much of it that I think there’s nothing else to do with it. But then, I discovered zoodles. What are zoodles, you say? Why, they are “noodles” made with zucchini! Use a spiralizer and turn your zucchini into your best comfort meal yet. It’s simple and easy to do and is a way healthier option than regular pasta.

Every year, my family takes a vacation in August, and usually we have a group sangria tasting. It has become kind of a tradition and something we all look forward to. Unfortunately, it didn’t happen this year, but I was having sangria withdrawal, so here are some great sangria recipes that are perfect for fall. The most basic sangria recipe starts with red wine (there are several options here, but you

do not need something expensive), brandy, orange liqueur (triple sec is the most common) and some fruit. If you want a sweeter wine, try a fruitier red like merlot or malbec. The following recipes are some variations on this. It’s important to note that for most recipes, the sangria should chill a few hours in the fridge, or overnight if possible, to let the flavors meld well and give the fruit time to sweeten it. If you make it and try to drink it right away, you may be disappointed with the result.
Cut the fruit into thin slices or wedges, leaving the peel on. Put the fruit into a pitcher. Add the brandy, orange liqueur and wine. Refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight if possible. Add sparkling water right before serving, stirring gently to combine. Makes six to eight servings. *For sweeter sangria, use tonic water instead of sparkling. This is a great recipe for fall when apple cider is abundant. Cut apples and add to a pitcher. Add the cognac, apple cider and sparkling wine. You can use any dry sparkling wine but cava, a Spanish sparkling wine, is a recommendation. Stir. Add ice and pour into glasses, topping with sliced apple and pomegranate seeds if desired. This sangria can be enjoyed right away if everything is wellchilled. Makes about eight servings.

¼ cup sugar 1 cup rum (high-quality white rum is suggested) 1 cup each: diced red apple and diced green apple 1 cup cranberries (fresh or frozen) 1 bottle chardonnay (unoaked or slightly oaked is recommended; try an Italian version) 1 cup white cranberry juice
In a large pitcher, combine the sugar and rum and stir to dissolve. Add the apples, cranberries, wine and white cranberry juice. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight if possible. Add the club soda right before serving. Stir gently to combine. Pour into ice-filled glasses, scooping out some of the fruit, and top each glass with a lemon twist. Makes six to eight servings.

From Atlanta, oddly enough, comes a pretty-much-perfect fusion of early punk and primordial glam. Lo-fi enough to get a hall pass from any critic over 30 and more self-effacing than the Ramones, these guys flash a few roots-emo ingredients that remind you what time it is whilst simultaneously reinventing 1976 as a buzzy, melodic mess when the New York Dolls, Starz and Buzzcocks could all show up at the same bar without fistfights breaking out. The lyrical sentiments are pure safety-pin logic: being a jerk to people (especially your girlfriend), being an undependable liar, splendid stuff like that, and again, the production is terrible enough to (almost) make me mention the first Horrors album, especially when the wheels come off the whole thing in a train-wreck of Iggy-blues (“Stoned on Love”). Only problem I might foresee is that it actually gets a little too authentic — would this generation understand Nick Cave, or are the Black Lips as sloppy as they can handle? A — Eric W. Saeger East West Quintet, Anthem (self-released)
This Brooklyn outfit is a mollycoddled NPR darling, having appeared on basically any show on which the network could possibly spotlight them. It’s not obvious why that’s the case, but then again they did start off as a hardbop thing in the tradition of Cannonball Adderley’s five-piece, and toward that, the bright but muted production still remains. But as the years have passed, so has their desire to get lumped in with any genre that sounds like it’s got cobwebs, not just rootsy bop but jazz-rock or jazz-hop or anything of that sort. They want to be known as a slamming band, period, and it’s true that they’re not afraid of cranking it up (“Action Figure” is a loud-quiet-loud anomaly that fluctuates between 1960s-cigarette-smoker-club jazz and Deep Purple in full-on rockout mode), but that stuff comes second to Dylan Heaney’s noodlings on the sax, whose results vary widely in quality (nice chill on “Draft,” not so much on the dubstep-tech-accompanied “Experiment No. 3,” which came off to me as a tad flat in spots, unless I missed some chromatic segue). The takeaway here is that more and more, traditional jazz is entering the melting pot, the only curious thing about that being the fact it’s taken so long. B — Eric W. Saeger

• Alpha Bravo Neener, we’re at the corporate stronghold of new releases for holiday-time, an embarrassment of riches for our snarking pleasure! Let’s put on the gas masks, bust down the door and bum-rush this den of redundant money-grubbing shlock! First up is a new Duran Duran album! This band was very famous in your mother’s day, when there were lots of jobs and hairspray came in a mortally dangerous spray can. Now they’re old, and — wait a second, you know something, maybe this new album, Paper Gods, isn’t ironically titled, maybe it’s a great album and we’re just being jerks. Gas masks off, you guys, while we listen to the single “Pressure Off,” which has “feat” shout-outs to Janelle Monáe and Nile Rodgers. Hmm, it starts out kind of cool, the noise-vocal loop goes nicely with those familiar 1980s beachtime jazz-chords … wait for it … OK, masks back on, people, the singing makes it sound like these guys don’t have professional corporate songwriters anymore. Masks back on, I said, and let’s head down the hall, in ninja-marines pattern! Double time it! • Bash! Knock knock! Whose album can we play in here? Chris Cornell’s, you say? Approach this new album, Higher Truth, carefully, guys — this could be really bad, like a Hurt Locker full of microwaved nonsense from his last album, Scream. OK, hit the YouTube button and duck for cover! Humph. Looks like ... it’s a dud! There’s nothing to preview, because Cornell would rather wait for the bad press than get it now, so no snippets! We’re safe! Someone yell “clear” and let’s keep going. I said we’re going! Stop trembling and get up! • Cover me, I’m going in! There’s a David Gilmour album called Rattle That Lock and a Keith Richards album called Crosseyed Heart. Ha ha, I know a booby trap when I see one! Those guys don’t need the money, so hopefully they’re just going to use the proceeds to pay a construction company to rebuild Detroit. “What proceeds,” you ask? Why, the money spent by “completist” fans, of course! Even if these albums consisted of those guys blowing their noses during hay fever season, “completists” would buy them anyway, so that their collections would be complete. Just write “NOT SAFE” in chalk on the door and let’s move it. • There’s one more here, the Battles album, called La Di Da Di. As you know, Battles is one of the bands that makes this decade tolerable, so let’s just bask in the awesomeness. OK, all I found was a live version of one of these songs, but there’s no song title written here. Yes, this band is that cool. Check it out, awesome polyrhythm chill, some noise guitar over that, now a crazy android dance beat and crazy drums — these guys just plain rule. — Eric W. Saeger

Granite State Comicon turns 12
This year, it’s Star Wars themed By Kelly Sennott
ksennott@hippopress.com
After more than a decade of annual Granite State Comicons, organizers have a pretty reliable, tried-and-true formula for the downtown Manchester event. First, invite pop culture celebrities as special guests, like Billy Dee Williams (Lando Calrissian from Star Wars), Dawn Wells (Mary Ann from Gilligan’s Island) and Noah Hathaway (Atreyu from The Neverending Story). Bring in area vendors, artists and pop culture enthusiasts to show off their stuff at vendor tables, panels and games. And, of course, create a costume contest that will draw in cosplayers from all over the region (prepare to see some Princess Leias, Batmen, Captain Americas, Wonder Women, Spidermen and Walking Dead people, in handmade costumes, no less). The 12th annual Granite State Comicon Courtesy photos from Granite State Comicon. is set to yet again be bigger than the last.

Skyfaring, by Mark Vanhoenacker (Knopf, 349 pages) A few months before he decided to become a pilot, Mark Vanhoenacker was in a hotel lobby in Nairobi, watching as “happy crews from the airline I would one day work for” clattered in with their suitcases. “Their work, I marveled, had been to fly here.” That sense of boyish wonderment — akin to a child on his first flight, face pressed to the window — is what nudged Vanhoenacker to abandon a business career and train to be a commercial pilot. Skyfaring is his love letter to flight. It is a melodic yet dense meditation on aviation, sorely needed by a public for whom air travel has, in less than three decades, morphed from miracle to exasperation. Vanhoenacker’s path to the sky began when he was a boy growing up in Massachusetts, where he hung model airplanes in a bedroom dimly lit with glow-in-thedark stars and devised science-fair projects that dealt with aviation. He took flying lessons as a teen, but it wasn’t until he was a postgraduate student in England, studying African history, that he decided the platitude is right: that he should follow his passion. The decision came after a halfhour spent in the cockpit of a flight that passed over Istanbul on the way back to London. With wisdom and prudence unusual in a Gen X-er, Vanhoenacker did not enroll in flight school the next day, but instead worked for three years as a business consultant (a profession selected because of
its expansive air travel) so he could pay off student loans and save money for flight school. That done, he enrolled in a pilot training program offered by British Airways, his employer to this day. Somewhere along the way, he learned to write with the grace of a poet, and his knowledge of aviation, combined with an enviable worldliness bestowed by his career and travels, results in lovely meditations on the wonder that is modern flight. In one, he ponders the mystery of how, standing at his kitchen sink in America, he washes the red soil of Johannesburg down the drain. “The water runs over the soles of my sneakers, sweeping the African dust brightly over the stainless steel. ... I think of the earth, both soil and planet; this earth could not have expected to meet this water, here.” At times, so besotted by the aircraft he flies, Vanhoenacker drifts into eye-glazing territory, delving into the minutiae of a pilot’s existence that really only matter to pilots — for example, the difference between indicated airspeed and true airspeed (trust me, you don’t need to know), and that pilots’ cupholders and sun visors “are more intuitively located” on the Airbus than the 747. But you can forgive him when he gets he gets worked up about things to which the average flyer can relate — say, clouds, those “puffy billows of water, distributed as densely and randomly as dandelions in a field.” Novice pilots typically avoid clouds, he reveals, but on the final hours of flying

required before he was first licensed, he dodged clouds over Canterbury Cathedral like a pro. “For perhaps the most joyful half hour I will ever spend in the sky, I bank the plane left and right, frolicking and dodging through gaps that so many unseen calculations of air and sun and earth have left.” He quotes Georgia O’Keeffe: “When you fly under even normal circumstances, you see such marvelous things, such incredible colors that you actually begin to believe in your dreams.” “I try to remember when I haven’t flown for some time, and the handles of the bags of groceries that I’m carrying through a cold and rainy November dusk are about to break, that such a lake of light may be above the clouds that rest upon the street.” With infectious enthusiasm and a remarkable gift for language, Vanhoenacker makes the reader long to be boarding a plane — an experience, he notes, that less than 20 percent of the world’s population has ever experienced — until cognizant that the author’s experience of the cockpit is not what the flyer experiences by the bathroom at the rear of the plane. It is a rhapsody of a uniquely privileged class, whose members have their own bathroom, bunk, sink — and locked quarters to keep out the economy riffraff. Not that there aren’t miracles to be glimpsed out the window, even squished in the middle seat, and Vanhoenacker, who writes frequently about aviation for Slate, chronicles them beautifully. “The reason you fly is to eat,” he remembers the father of Jonathan Livingston Seagull saying. But Jonathan didn’t buy that, and neither does Vanhoenacker; humans fly so their souls can soar. Look for Skyfaring on lists of 2015’s best non-fiction books. A — Jennifer Graham

POP CULTURE FILM REVIEWS BY AMY DIAZ
A Walk in the Woods (R)
performance is weirdly inert. There is about half an inch of difference between “happy Bryson” and “thinking he’s going to die Bryson,” as Redford portrays him, keeping our central character a guy we never get to know and never particularly want to know, who trades in a very bland, unoriginal LastVegas-style old-dude-movie humor. A Walk in the Woods has some nice trail imagery — the physical suffering might be worth it if those really are the views you get of the Smoky Mountains — but never makes its characters layered enough to justify the time we spend with them. CRated R for language and some sexual references. Directed by Ken Kwapis with a screenplay by Rick Kerb and Bill Holderman (from the book by Bill Bryson), A Walk in the Woods is an hour and 44 minutes long and distributed by Broad Green.
A travel writer decides to walk the Appalachian Trail in A Walk in the Woods, a charmless adaptation of the 1998 book by Bill Bryson.
As the movie tells it, “Bill Bryson” (Robert Redford) decides to shake up his life of book reissues and acquaintances’ funerals by hiking the Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. His wife, Catherine (Emma Thompson), does not want him to go but will reluctantly agree to his plan if he finds someone to walk it with. (A word about this: I have no idea how old Redford’s Bryson or his wife are supposed to be in this movie. As has been noted elsewhere, the real-life Bryson did the hiking described here when he was in his 40s. Redford, today, is 79. The movie seems to treat him and Thompson, who is 56, as sort of the same age. And they have what appears to be an, at least, 30something son and teenaged grandchildren. The overall affect of this age strangeness was that it made unnecessarily vague one of the few pieces of information we’re ever given about this character who, ultimately, we get to know so little anyway.) After he’s turned down by pretty much everybody he knows, childhood friend Stephen Katz (Nick Nolte) calls him up, having heard about Bryson’s plans from a mutual friend, and asks to go along. Though Katz isn’t the most in-shape guy in the world — one knee is titanium, the other is his “trick” knee — Bryson, eager to take
A Walk in the Woods
the trip, agrees to bring him along. The men set out slowly at first — huffing and puffing and ready to call it a day after about a mile — but eventually learn to cope with life on the trail and each other. As it happens, I recently read a few of Bryson’s books (in particular, two on the English language and a biography of Shakespeare — I highly recommend all three). He has a very merry authorial voice — his writing style is buoyant and enthusiastic, capable of getting you as excited about whatever he’s talking about as he seems to be. The movie has none of that. It’s charmlessness was so surprising that I
actually revisited the book A Walk in the Woods after seeing the movie to try to figure out what went wrong. There is a vein of grumpiness that borders on mean-spiritedness that runs throughout this movie. And a lot of those moments actually come from scenes in the book but somehow, in the book, presented in the context of all of Bryson’s thoughts about hiking and the trail, it’s not quite as jarring. Book Bryson is a funnier, more erudite version of a regular, layered human attempting something difficult; Redford’s Bryson is a one-note sourpuss. While Nolte is able to bring some life to Katz, Redford’s
The Transporter Refueled (PG-13)
A luxury sedan brings down a crime syndicate in The Transporter Refueled, a fast-paced, feature-length Audi commercial.
I suppose there are people in this movie as well: Ed Skrein (probably best known as the first of the two actors who played Daario Naharis on Game of Thrones) as next gen Frank Martin a.k.a. the Transporter, Ray Stevenson as Frank’s dad, Loan Chabanol as transportee Anna and a bunch of other baddies and hot girls, none of whom are quite as sexy or magnetic as the black Audi S8 that Frank starts out driv-

vaguely Robert-DowneyJr.-reminiscent heroics. The movie both stands on its own and clicks perfectly (and engagingly) into the Marvelverse. B+ Fantastic Four (PG-13) Miles Teller, Kate Mara. Lacking a coherent plot, interesting ideas (or, even, just “ideas”) or any kind of sense of fun, this attempt at a Fantastic Four reboot represents the worst features of modern superhero movies, in particular: endwhat it does here (and what less draggy origin-story it did in last year’s Guardbusiness (the “four” don’t, ians of the Galaxy), which spoiler alert, come togethis to take a very minor, er until the movie’s final mostly unknown characmoments), unnecessary ter from its universe and grimness and distractingly create a movie that is crack- terrible CGI. Add in perforling with energy, humor and mances from main actors adventure. Rudd, in the tit- that seem to be entries in ular shrinking superhero some kind of “affectlessrole, is an excellent blend ness-off” and that hilarious of earnest everyguy and reshoot wig on Mara (for
a good time, Google “New York Magazine” and “Fantastic Four wig”), and you have a spectacular failure of a movie. Oh, and it’s boring. F Hitman: Agent 47 (R) Rupert Friend, Hannah Ware. In this reboot of a movie (2007’s Hitman) I apparently saw, but no longer remember, various genetically modified super assassins chase each other around Europe and Asia, finding lots of places to fight but not much in the way of an engaging story. The movie does have a few things going for it, namely the appearance of Zachary Quinto (he’s fun — not here, unfortunately, but in general, and should be in more stuff), the occasional nice visual moment and a final 15-or-so min-
utes where the film wakes up and has some snappy, B-movie energy. More of that earlier on, please. C*Inside Out (PG) Voices of Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith. Also lending voices: Richard Kind, Bill Hader, Lewis Black, Mindy Kaling, Diane Lane, Kyle MacLachlan and, because this is a Pixar
film, just a little John Ratzenberger. Of course, it’s not really a Pixar special until you’re weeping in public, which you will do at this tale of a young tween learning to deal with the emotional turmoil of a move from her lifelong home in Minnesota to San Francisco. The movie artfully shows why sadness is a useful emotion and serves as a beautifully rendered reminder of the bittersweet nature of the transition from childhood to teenager-hood. Poehler is at her Leslie Knope pluckiest and well-supported by the rest of the cast. The story charms while those twinkly little Pixar details delight. A The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (PG-13) Henry Cavill, Armie Hammer. Spies, an American played by a British guy (Cavill) and a Russian played by an American (Hammer), lead a crew of fun accents in this Guy Ritchiedirected lark based on a 1960s

The Transporter Refueled
But Skrein doesn’t have that perfectfor-this Statham mix of tough-guy-ness and just-this-side-of-winking humor about the kind of movie he’s in. Skrein is fine; if I’d never seen a shirtless Statham fight a bunch of guys in an oil puddle, maybe I’d feel that Skrein was as good a transporter as any. But I have seen Statham fight a bunch of guys in an oil puddle (and being able to Google “Statham oil fight” and get that clip is, in my opinion, maybe the best thing about the Internet). I know how fun these movies can be. Skrein tries but he just never gets there. Ray Stevenson as Frank Sr. (who I still think of as Titus Pullo from Rome but
TV series. Though both leading men are extra dishy in their Cold War-era suits, the movie needed a little bit of substance to give all that style something to hang on. The closing credits suggest the tale could have been better if it had quickly dispensed with the origin story and moved on to other adventures. C * Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation (PG-13) Tom Cruise, Rebecca Ferguson. While not terribly memorable even minutes after viewing, Rogue Nation (the story of which is almost irrelevant to the delightful symphony of set-piece action stunts and spyversus-spy battles) is big fun while you’re in the theater seat. The movie has an endearing sense of humor without being jokey and makes you remember why Tom Cruise is a big movie star — he nails both the action (making hanging off a plane, for example, look believable) and the funny bits. And
who has been in oodles of stuff — Dexter, the Thor movies — since then) actually seems to be the attempt to add some of that scruffy Stathamness to this affair and he’s, again, fine but two new Franks still can’t equal the old one. C Rated PG-13 for sequences of violence and action, sexual material, some language, a drug reference and thematic elements. Directed by Camille Delamarre and written by Adam Cooper and Bill Collage & Luc Besson (from characters by Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen), The Transporter Refueled is an hour and 36 minutes long and distributed by EuropaCorp.
then there’s Simon Pegg, who by law should be in every car chase ever. B+ No Escape (R) Owen Wilson, Lake Bell. A family newly arrived to a generically “Asiany” country gets caught up in a violent coup. Xenophobia + action = this psychological-torture porn that seems to be a U.S. tourism group propaganda film about the dangers of foreign travel. Also, will the Pierce Brosnan casually displayed in the first act go off in the third? Yep! D*Straight Outta Compton (R) O’Shea Jackson Jr., Corey Hawkins.
Late 1980s rap group N.W.A. gets the biopic treatment in this movie, which features Ice Cube’s real-life son giving a solid performance as the young him. Even only casual fans (or just people who listened to any music at all in the late 1980s and early 1990s) can appreciate the tale of how the group’s central partnership — between Easy E, Ice Cube and Dr. Dre — came together and then fell apart. Though all the standard biopic beats are hit (Easy E learns to rap, the guys overindulge in the spoils of fame, “Bye, Felicia”), the movie hangs together and is solidly engaging. Meanwhile, did you know that Dr. Dre is 50? Get ready to feel super old, X-ers. B

ing or the gun metal gray Audi he switches to later on. Actually, it’s not really “gun metal gray.” Based on the choices of the exterior colors as listed on audiusa.com, it’s probably either the Daytona Gray Pearl, the Oolong Gray Metallic or the Moonsoon Gray Metallic. (Yes, I went to the Audi website because, while this movie didn’t give the car quite the cheesecake treatment previous installments did the cars are still way more memorable than the people in this deal.) Head on over and build your own S8, though as far as I can tell the feature options do not include systems that will help you drive over a jet plane and up a ramp into an airport or the ability to change license plates in an attempt to avoid French police. But maybe that’s an aftermarket addition Frank treated himself to. The rules of this new Frank’s transporting business are the same as the old Jason Statham Frank’s rules: he doesn’t want to know what’s being transported, doesn’t want to get involved with the client and will take off if package and/or passengers don’t show up on time. And just as with old Frank, new Frank breaks all of these rules, like, immediately and finds himself helping Anna bring down the Eastern European-ish pimp who has kept her basically enslaved as a prostitute since she was a young girl. I hate to be the person always grumping that the reboot guy isn’t as good as the original guy; I mean, we’re going to get the third Spider-Man of my movie reviewing career in a few years so it doesn’t seem fair to stand in the way of progress.

NITE Buzzing band Local music news & events
By Michael Witthaus
mwitthaus@hippopress.com
• Old school: Most arena concerts are sitdown affairs, but not Death Cab For Cutie. All the floor tickets for the band’s local show are general admission, though reserved seats are available on the side and rear (not a lot left, however). The band’s latest album, Kintsugi, is among its best, with “Little Wanderer” and “Black Sun” standout tracks. Death Cab For Cutie performs on Thursday, Sept. 10, at 7:30 p.m. at Verizon Wireless Arena, 555 Elm St., Manchester. Tickets $35-$60 at ticketmaster.com. • Jam on: Fans of soulful rhythms and tight harmonies will enjoy Strange Machines, a genre-hopping band that’s shared stages with Lettuce and Dopapod and become a festival favorite with its singular sound. Joining for an early set is Mister F, a jam band supergroup formed in 2013 from members of Timbre Coup and Capital Zen. See Strange Machines and Mister F on Friday, Sept. 11, 9 p.m., at Penuche’s, 96 Hanover St., Manchester. Cover charge $10. See jigsmusic.com • Shell we dance: The three-day Hampton Beach Seafood Festival features great music. Among the bands performing on the Beach Cabana and Seashell stages are Entrain, Gretchen & the Pickpockets, Don’t Call Me Shirley, Jay Taylor, Draw the Line, Chris Cyrus, Rory Scott, Roots of Creation, Hooda Thunk, Lisa Love, Baha Brothers, Truffle and Crab Shack. It happens Friday, Sept. 11, through Sunday, Sept. 11, Ocean Blvd., Hampton. See hamptonbeachseafoodfestival.com. • One-two punch: Touring to mark 50 years as band — has hard rock music even existed that long? — Scorpions play the season’s final Meadowbrook show with support from Queensrÿche. Neither band is slowing down with age — Scorpions just released a new CD and their tour mates are working on Building the Empire. See Scorpions and Queensrÿche on Sunday, Sept. 13, at 7 p.m. at Bank of NH Pavilion at Meadowbrook, 72 Meadowbrook Lane, Gilford. Tickets are $30-$60 at banknhpavilion.com. • Within out: Congratulations to local singer-songwriter Alli Beaudry, as the long road to her new album, The Voice from Within, culminates in a full band Tupelo release show. A spring PledgeMusic campaign brought Beaudry’s first solo album in seven years to the finish line, and it’s a lovely effort, exuding the sunny charm she’s known for. The Alli Beaudry CD Release Party is on Wednesday, Sept. 16, at 7:30 p.m. at Tupelo Music Hall, 2 Young Road, Londonderry. Tickets $20 at tupelohall.com. Want more ideas for a fun night out?

Bees Deluxe play CD release show in Nashua By Michael Witthaus
mwitthaus@hippopress.com
Though he’s quite good-natured about it, Bees Deluxe founder and guitarist Conrad Warre sometimes feels like he’s from a musical Island of Misfit Toys. The Boston band calls its music Acid Blues for the 21st Century. Informed by everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Tom Petty and Herbie Hancock, it’ a heady mélange of sounds that can confound fellow performers. “Blues bands, they tell us to get off because we sound like jazz, and if we go to a jazz room, they say we’re a rock band, but on a rock bill at some place like T.T. the Bear’s, they say we’re a blues band,” Warre said in a recent phone interview. “We’re sort of hated and despised by all of them, because we don’t really match … yet we like all of them and incorporate things that they all do in our garage.” While some musicians may scratch their heads, the band is reliably booked throughout New England. On Sept. 17, they appear at Nashua’s Riverwalk Café in support of their seventh album, A Can of Bees. The excellent new disc opens with a cover of Cannonball Adderley’s “Mercy, Mercy, Mercy,” a track that’s a primer on Bees Deluxe eclecticism. Warre’s guitar melds rock, blues and jazz, shifting from fluid and spacey to rocked up and revving — in three and a half minutes. From there, the band — Warre, drummer Patrick Sanders, Carol Band on keyboards and bassist Allyn Dorr — get down and dirty on the blues rocker “A Quitter Never Wins,” a 1990s hit from Tinsley Ellis. After that, they channel a smoky 1960s jazz club on “Zoe’s Chromatic Blues,” with help from Bruce Mattson on Hammond B3; Mattson was BD’s keyboard player until Gregg Allman poached him for his latest tour. Asked about his personal influences, Warre demurs a bit. “Analog musicians … jazz and classical mostly; I love to listen to guitar players but I find it infects and upsets me,” he said. “It’s kind of like an actor watching a better actor — you don’t want to do that, it’s just upsetting. So I don’t Bees Deluxe When: Thursday, Sept. 17, 8 p.m. Where: Riverwalk Café, 35 Railroad Square, Nashua More: riverwalknashua.com

listen to the stuff we’re approximating.” Warre finds inspiration in less likely places, soaking up sounds and occasionally translating them into a Bees Deluxe number. “I go back further in time and listen to stuff that I know we can’t do, like Ray Charles, Amy Winehouse and Etta James,” he said. “We’re never going to sound like them, but they do things that are really worth documenting and rearranging.” A U.K native, Warre came to America when he moved to New York City in the mid-1980s. “I’m from London, but now I consider myself from Brooklyn,” he said. He added with a laugh, “My mother always says my accent is halfway in between the two; I’m in the Sargasso Sea.” Warre’s early years in the States were interesting, to say the least. “I arrived with a typewriter and a green corduroy suit and found an illegal sublet in Tribeca. I’d dumpster dive for paper behind the printers and do illustrations.” He built a portfolio, which he used to scout for magazine work. “The art directors would say, ‘We haven’t got a job,
but can I buy that illustration from you?’ Then I’d go back to the loft, do that drawing again, sell it to a different magazine.” It was a heady experience. “Living in New York as a young man and not knowing anybody is a baptism of fire,” he said. “Whenever I go back to England now, I’m shocked at how little people do there. … The pace of life is so extraordinarily different.” His wife’s work brought him to Boston a few years ago. “I haven’t been back since, although I miss New York terribly,” he said, mentioning that Manchester’s Strange Brew Tavern, where his band appears frequently, evokes memories of his first U.S. home. “It’s long and narrow and reminds me of the Bitter End in Manhattan; the people at opposite ends of the stage can’t hear or see each other.” Warre chose the CD release party venue with care. He considers Riverwalk Café a musician’s room, one of the region’s best. “When we first got there I thought I’d died and gone to heaven,” he said. “It’s completely professional; I wish there was a cafe like that where I live — I’d be playing there three or four nights a week.”

Because only single tickets remain to see Dave Chappelle early at on Thursday, Sept. 24, at Capitol Center for the Arts (44 S. Main St., Concord ccah.com), the comic added a late show – and it’s selling fast, too. Known for his popular television series Chappelle’s Show, with iconic character roles such as Rick James and edgy takes on racial stereotypes and politics, he returned to standup two years ago. Kevin Hart considers him the greatest comedian alive, saying, “You can’t compare anyone to Dave Chappelle.” Shows at 7:30 and 9:30 p.m., tickets $58.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) I loved having a hit single as much as anyone — but I hated sounding like we were trying too hard. However hard you’re trying, that’s how hard you’ll sound like you’re trying. Aries (March 21 – April 19) Winding our way around the country I was able to stop off at South by Southwest in Austin and catch Little Richard in concert. After the show, I went backstage to pay my respects. It’s always humbling to stand before one of our immortal pioneers. He lived and breathed the gospel of rock and roll. … Richard walked me back out to my bus and, in formal fashion, proceeded to bless it. No blessing has ever been more appreciated. If Little Richard offers to bless your bus, let him. Taurus (April 20 – May 20) Despite the lack of headway on a new album. Aerosmith forged ahead. Another summer meant another tour. Forge ahead. Gemini (May 21 – June 20) Scarred and damaged, angry and resentful, issues misunderstood and issues unresolved, we kept working.... We did it out of habit, we did it with ambivalence, but mainly we did it because our passion for the music drove us. Keep working. Cancer (June 21 – July 22) Steven’s antics, my arrogance, all the stuff that went on with the other guys — it all pales against the knowledge that long ago this band became something bigger than all of us. Still, keep the arrogance in check. Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) All I could see was a black dot making its way up the dirt road. As it came into view, I realized it was a friend driving his rebuilt Model T Ford. He noticed me on the hill and we waved to each other. It dawned on me that this was a scene that could have taken place a century ago. I got goose bumps. I thought to myself, I love this setting. I love this moment. I was born in the wrong time. It’s a throwback kind of week.

All quotes are from Rocks: My Life In and Out of Aerosmith, by Joe Perry, born Sept. 10, 1950. Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) I was a quiet kid, often shy, and not given to outward bursts of enthusiasm. But Lake Sunapee broke down my reserve and had me jumping for joy. To my young eyes, it was an undiscovered world to enter and explore. … Even now, writing from afar, I long to see it sparkling under the summer sun or frozen solid under a white winter moon. An undiscovered world may be right in your backyard. Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) Boston might not have the big-time status of New York or L.A., but Boston was practical, Boston was close by, and Boston was happening. You don’t need big-time status. Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) The irony was not lost on me: In one hand I was holding an eviction notice and in the other I was holding management contracts. Make sure each hand knows what the other one is doing. Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) I wrote what has become my most famous riff — “Walk This Way” — totally straight. The goal was always to access that place and spirit where riffs flew off my guitar. I had tried it Steven’s way — grinding away at an idea, beating it to death, going over it again and again. But for me that killed the magic. You do it your way and let other people do it theirs. Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) I had been harboring an illusion for a long time that I didn’t want to shatter. The illusion was that, no matter what, I could put up with the band and the band could put up with me. You might reach a putting-up limit. Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) For years we had used the excuse that, because we were America’s party band, sobriety didn’t go with our image. No excuses.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD BY CHUCK SHEPHERD
Pope mania
Muslim clerics complain of the commercialization of the holy city of Mecca during the annual hajj pilgrimages, but for Pope Francis’ visits to New York, Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia in mid-September, shameless street vendors and entrepreneurs already appear to be eclipsing Mecca’s experience. Merchants said they’d be selling, among other tacky items, mozzarella cheese statuettes of the pope ($20), a “pope toaster” to burnish Francis’ image on bread, a Phillythemed bobblehead associating the pope with the movie boxer Rocky, local beers Papal Pleasure and YOPO (You Only Pope Once) and T-shirts (“Yo Pontiff!” and “The Pope Is My Homeboy”). The Wall Street Journal quoted a Philadelphia archdiocese spokesman admitting that “you kind of have to take it in stride.”
Florida’s best courtroom
their militaries from employing flamethrowers (as “inhumane”), but entrepreneurs have begun to market the devices domestically for $900 to $1,600 each (based on the distance of the flame, at 25 feet or 50 feet). Federal regulators appear uninterested (as the contraptions are technically neither firearms nor explosives), and only two states prohibit them outright, though a few jurisdictions believe flamethrowers are illegal under fire codes. The Ohio startup Throwflame has sensed the need for marketing savvy and describes flamethrowers as primarily for “entertainment.” (Recent reports indicate a slight run on sales under the suspicion that authorities will realize the danger and outlaw them.)
Great art!
Former Massachusetts Institute of Technology lecturer Joseph Gibbons was sentenced in July to a year in prison for robbing a New York City Capital One bank in December (while operating a video camera) in a heist that he had insisted all along was merely “performance art.” (He had been suspected in a similar robbery in Rhode Island in November.) His biography on the MIT website described him as “blurring the boundaries between fact and fiction, self and persona ... with a contradictory impulse to confabulate and dissimulate.” The Queens Museum in New York City has offered to screen the footage of the robbery as an art piece.
In May, suspect David Riffle, charged with trespassing (after shouting “religious proverbs” at patrons of the Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Florida), greeted Broward County judge John “Jay” Hurley at his bail hearing by inquiring, “How you doin’, a--hole?” Unfazed, Hurley responded, “I’m doing fine. How are you, sir?” After listening to Riffle on religion a bit longer, Hurley set bond at $100. In August, talking to Judge Hurley from jail via closed circuit TV, arrestee Susan Surrette, 54, flashed him as she tried to prove an alleged recent assault. The self-described New World order escort had lifted her shirt to reveal bruises. • A Pig Flies: On Aug. 20, a 250-pound pig (Her bond, also, was $100.) was knocked free of a trailer traveling at 65 mph on I-25 near Fort Collins, Colorado thus Bright ideas briefly, at least, sailing. It was not badly hurt. • A Chinese woman identified only as Zeng was detained and stabilized at Beijing Capital International Airport in August after being found dazed on the floor at a boarding gate. She had attempted to fly with a bottle of expensive cognac (Remy Martin XO Excellence) in her carry-on a violation of Chinese regulations barring liquids over 100 ml (the cognac was 700 ml, selling for about $200 in the United States) and was presented with the ultimatum to give up the bottle or miss the flight. She decided to drink the contents on the spot (but was subsequently declared too drunk to board). • “And Another Thing, Dad”: Michael May, 44, was arrested in Lincoln County, Kentucky, in August after the Pilot Baptist Cemetery near Stanford reported that he had tried to dig up the grave of his dead father “in order to argue with him,” according to Lexington’s WLEX-TV. May told officers his dad had died about 30 years ago. (Alcohol was involved in the decision to dig.)
More things to worry about
Under a 1981 treaty, at least 50 countries, including the United States, have banned
• In July, Mexican customs officers detained an American and a Mexican on the bridge between El Paso, Texas, and Juarez, with 13 pounds of marijuana the two allegedly were smuggling into Mexico to sell. (The month before, Juarez officials arrested another El Paso woman with a kilo of crystal meth allegedly destined for Mexican sale.)
Recurring themes
• Three weeks ago, News of the Weird mentioned that a federal judge had officially declared 29 years as an excessive amount of time for the Bureau of Land Management to have sat on a natural gas permit, but four years’ waiting is apparently an acceptable period for a judge to sit on a decision whether to fire a New York City schoolteacher. Edward Morrissey, charged with pushing and shoving a student at PS 109 in Brooklyn in 2009, had his administrative hearing in 2011 and since then has been drawing full pay and benefits (including seniority raises) while reporting to a no-duties “job” every school day. In May 2015, he was finally found guilty. • In August the independent Police Foundation declared it “excessive” that cops in Stockton, California, had fired 600 gunshots trying to apprehend robbers of a Bank of the West branch in July 2014. None of the robbers was hit, but one hostage was fatally hit by 10 police bullets. According to the report, “a few” of the officers engaged in “sympathetic fire,” shooting merely because their colleagues were shooting (and since the sequence was chaotic, sympathetic fire occurred even though other colleagues were actually positioned in front of shooters).
