A debate about city unions, education spending, clean streets, crime — it could be Manchester or Nashua, both of which are holding mayoral elections this fall. Though Manchester is a little larger and Nashua a little closer to Boston, the two cities are twins in many ways. Both are children of the Industrial Revolution powered by the Merrimack River and labor that came from Canada and Europe. And as far as city government goes, both have “strong mayor” forms of government (as opposed to city managers as most New Hampshire cities have) and tax caps. Though it can get lost in the day-to-day “it bleeds, it leads” reporting from our local television stations and daily newspapers, both places are very safe and, by national standards, have good school systems. Most interesting about the two races is how similar all the major candidates positions are. In Nashua, the two runoff candidates are former Nashua Chamber of Commerce president Chris Williams (who also worked at one for the Manchester Chamber of Commerce) and former Mayor Jim Donchess (and by former, he was elected for two terms in the 1980s). Both men support rail coming to Nashua and building an arts center downtown (a project long championed by Hippo’s Jeff Rapsis). Both want to see Nashua’s Millyard move in a more tech direction and increase the amount of residences in downtown buildings. In Manchester at press time the runoff hadn’t concluded, but the two major candidates and likely winners, current Mayor Ted Gatsas and Ward One Alderman Joyce Craig, seem, like their Nashua counterparts, to not be all that far apart on many issues. They both support introducing a drug court to Manchester and bringing in more tech jobs. We’ve seen one difference play out in the news lately. Gatsas vetoed the new teacher contract while Craig worked to override his veto — which she did. One issue that none of the major candidates address is how Nashua and Manchester can work together to bring more economic development to this corridor of the Merrimack Valley. Even on crime and drugs, the two cities should be work more closely together. Drugs don’t stop at city borders, and criminals don’t stay in one place. The cities are only separated by one town, Merrimack. Perhaps we could create crime task force that looks at the region rather than each town. Same goes for economic development. The tech corridor that includes both millyards and Merrimack, Bedford and Amherst (home to many of its own tech companies), is in many ways one economic zone. Could both areas combine resources and do a better job of recruiting more companies? Maybe that could be an issue in the next election.

NEWS & NOTES State budget

As Republicans in the state legislature are poised to attempt an override of Gov. Maggie Hassan’s vetoes, Republican leaders and Hassan are trying to find a compromise that will enable the passage of a two-year state operating budget. NHPR reported business tax cuts are the main sticking point. Republicans say they don’t want a budget without them and Hassan wants to find alternative sources of revenue to offset the loss such tax cuts would result in. The legislature returns to Concord on Sept. 16 in an attempt to override the governor’s veto on 10 bills, including two that are related to the budget. Republicans are unlikely to find the two-thirds majority needed to be successful without the help of Democrats who are united with Hassan.

Merrimack dispensary

New zoning rules were approved by the Merrimack planning board for medical marijuana dispensaries and cultivation facilities. The Telegraph of Nashua reported the new rules require dispensaries be at least 1,000 feet from a school and subject floor plans and security measures to police review. The rules also include definitions for dispensaries and cultivation centers. Prime Alternative Treatment of New Hampshire, which will operate in Merrimack and Hillsborough counties, has proposed a dispensary in Merrimack. John Begin, a former New Hampshire state trooper, has been hired as head of security for the dispensary.

Northern Pass

Eversource Energy has concluded its five public meetings with counties affected by the Canadian hydroelectric powerline plan known as the Northern Pass. NHPR reported Eversource officials at the meetings in the northernmost counties affected, Grafton and Coos, were met with a vocal opposition. In Grafton County, only two out of a dozen speakers had positive comments for the project, and in Coos, the opponents outnumbered those in favor by four to one and the

full three hours slated for public comment were used. Those who spoke against the plan wanted the full length of power lines to be buried. The latest proposal from Eversource calls for 60 miles, or about a third of the route, to be buried. The final meeting took place in Laconia on Sept. 10.

He also called for more competition in the reproductive health arena. It’s still unclear whether Gov. Maggie Hassan, a Democrat, will run for reelection or instead run for Kelly Ayotte’s U.S. Senate seat.

A deal between Kinder Morgan and the New Hampshire Building Trades Council has been struck that will ensure hundreds of union workers will be hired if federal regulators approve a proposed natural gas pipeline. NHPR reported the agreement is likely to secure the support of major labor unions for the Northeast Energy Direct Pipeline project. Kinder Morgan has agreed to use union labor on all of its job sites for virtually every building job such as welders, pipefitters and electrical workers. The NED Pipeline would increase natural gas pipeline capacity in the region by 35 percent.

Sununu’s bid for gov

Bragdon’s job

The AP reported Republican Executive Councilor Chris Sununu officially announced his candidacy for governor. He’s the brother of former Sen. John E. Sununu, the son of former Gov. John H. Sununu and he’s been on the Executive Council for five years. Sununu was recently in the news when he was one of three who voted to kill a contract for Planned Parenthood of New England that would have provided about $640,000 in state funding. Sununu’s vote was seen as the deciding vote because he is a pro-choice Republican who has voted to approve Planned Parenthood contracts in the past. The vote happened in early August, shortly after the reproductive health organization was mired in a national controversy around videos allegedly showing Planned Parenthood officials discussing fees for fetal tissue donations. Sununu previously told NHPR that his decision was driven partly by this controversy, saying it called into question whether the state should be in business with the organization.

HIPPO | SEPTEMBER 17 - 23, 2015 | PAGE 4

CONCORD

Another contender?

The day after Sununu’s announcement, State Senate Finance Chair Jeanie Forrester of Meredith told reporters she is also considering a run for governor. WMUR reported she was approached by the Republican Governors Association about a possible bid. Forrester said she’s flattered but is focused on the state budget for now. Forrester was first elected to the state Senate in 2010. She and her husband Keith own an environmental technology company. Republican State Rep. Frank Edelblut of Wilton has previously stated he’s considering running. Other potential candidates include Senate President Chuck Morse of Salem and Senate Majority Leader Jeb Bradley of Wolfeboro.

Kinder Morgan deal

During a Solar City office ribbon-cutting in Manchester, Gov. Maggie Hassan said the cap on net metering, with limits how much power companies will pay for surplus energy produced by solar panels, might warrant a second look. NHPR reported utilities will reach their cap soon.

State Senator Peter Bragdon is no longer the executive director of HealthTrust, the public risk pool that was once part of the Local Government Center. NHPR reported Bragdon stepped down as Senate president to take the job to steer the organization through regulatory hurdles that the board chairman says HealthTrust are nearly over. Bragdon will continue to be paid until his contract ends in June.

NASHUA DRUG COURT

Hooksett

The planning board in Windham decided to postpone Goffstown a vote on a Market Square ordinance for a walkable downtown in order to finetune it first. The Union Leader reported the planning board has been working on Bedford the project for nearly five years.

An Aldi grocery store is expected to open later this year in Derry. The Union Leader reported the Germany-based company is building out a former Walmart location next to an Ocean State Job Lot. Aldi opened its first New Hampshire store in Salem in 2012 and has a second location in Keene.

Nashua’s drug court has received a second federal grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. The AP reported the drug court is receiving nearly $975,000 over three years. That’s in addition to a $325,000 three-year grant it received last year from the U.S. Department of Justice. The drug court in Hillsborough County Superior Court South began as a pilot program with funding from the Greater Nashua Mental Health Center. Hillsborough County Superior Court North also applied for a federal grant but did not have a pilot program. County officials recently voted against funding a Manchester drug court. There are six drug courts in the state.

MANCHESTER ALDERMEN

Three Manchester aldermen are cited in complaints filed by two city residents after their vote in favor of a new teachers union contract and the subsequent vote to override Mayor Ted Gatsas’ veto, the Union Leader reported. According to the complaints, aldermen Ron Ludwig, Barbara Shaw and Normand Gamache should not have voted for the contract because they have direct family members who are personally or financially affected by the deal. The complaints were filed separately by resident Michael Olszta and candidate for alderman Robert Tarr. Tarr also filed a complaint against Alderman Pat Long for bringing the contract vote up for reconsideration when it wasn’t on the agenda. The Board of Mayor and Aldermen will take up the complaints during its Oct. 6 meeting.

NEWS

The numbers game In the latest CNN/ORC poll, real estate mogul Donald Trump gained eight points to take a distant lead among Republicans of 32 percent while retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson gained 10 points and landed in second place with 19 percent. That placed former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in third place with 9 percent, which is a loss of four points since August. The same poll saw support for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton erode with her share of support losing 10 percentage points since August, though she still leads the Democrats with 37 percent. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is in second place still with 27 percent. Vice President Joe Biden has 20 percent, though he has yet to officially announce a run for office. Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley is in fourth place with 3 percent. One more Democrat Harvard professor Lawrence “Larry” Lessig announced his candidacy on the Democratic ticket in Claremont on Sept. 9. NHPR reported his campaign will focus on his desire to reform campaign finance and the electoral system in order to get big money out of politics and enfranchise more citizens. Lessig says he plans on stepping down from office after passing those reforms. Meanwhile, Clinton secured the endorsement of the New Hampshire teachers union. One less Republican Former Texas Gov. Rick Perry dropped out of the race Sept. 11 after struggling to raise funds. Meanwhile, NHPR reported Bush has been fielding his new tax plan, which calls for a reduced corporate tax rate, simplifying the tax code by making fewer brackets and eliminating loopholes, including one for Wall Street fund managers. He also wants to double the size of the standard tax deduction while capping deductions at 2 percent of adjusted gross income. According to the Union Leader, Bush criticized Trump, saying Trump once called for the largest tax increase in the country’s history.

Schools and social media

A high school shuts down social media pages as new law takes effect By Ryan Lessard

news@hippopress.com

As the academic year begins, a new law governing schools’ relationships to their students social media is causing some confusion.

The law

House Bill 142 was meant to regulate educational institutions’ ability to pry into students’ virtual lives through social media. Democratic State Rep. Renny Cushing of Hampton was a sponsor of the bill, which became law on July 21. While Cushing is not aware of any schools having a policy of accessing private accounts or doing so consistently, there were a few one-off occurrences. “There were anecdotal stories about teachers requiring students to give access to [accounts],” Cushing said. He said the law was meant to prevent teachers, administrators, staff or even school board members from accessing students’ social media accounts. “We just didn’t want anybody to be able to come and unilaterally coerce or force a student to surrender their privacy,” Cushing said. As it’s written, the law prohibits educational institutions from requiring students to hand over login credentials, require they log in while a school employee watches, require students to add individuals to their contacts list or threaten students with failing grades or prospective students with non-admission for not doing any of the above things.

the school decided to make the move after receiving advice from the school district’s lawyer. In an email, Famulari wrote, “We continue to operate under advisement of our district legal counsel that school-administered social media sites remain shut-down indefinitely. We hopefully anticipate a more definitive outcome soon.” Famulari said the Pembroke School Board met in a non-public session on Sept. 8 and legal counsel was present for part of it. Pembroke’s school board chairman Thomas Serafin confirmed that they discussed the social media law. “I’m assuming it will be on the agenda in the next several meetings,” Serafin said. He said the New Hampshire School Boards Association sent them a draft policy Confusion In August, Pembroke Academy shut that recommended shutting down all social down its Facebook and other social media media sites. But Serafin says that was done accounts. Headmaster Paul Famulari said more out of an abundance of caution than misunderstanding.

“I absolutely appreciate the intent of the law,” Serafin said. But Cushing says school-administered social media accounts are not what the law is intended to regulate. “That’s not the intent. I think it’s completely gone overboard,” Cushing said. “What’s next, you going to close down the Internet? It’s a complete overreaction to that.” Cushing says schools can still administer their own social media accounts and, as far as he is aware, virtually every other school in the state still does. Officials at the School Boards Association are also unaware of any other districts shutting down their social media accounts. “Cyber-surveillance, cyber-snooping, bullying and sexting, hacking into one’s accounts. It’s a really complicated world in this new era. We just simply need to have some common-sense policies and laws in place that create a balance,” Cushing said.

NEWS & NOTES Q&A

099058

During their lunch hour at Manchester’s McLane Middleton law firm, Administrative Assistant Brenda Beer and about 10 women in the office volunteer their time crocheting hats and scarves for homeless young people in the Manchester. They meet almost every weekday but bring the volunteer work home, too, so they can reach their goal of making more than 70 hats and scarves before the cold weather sets in. How did you come up with the plan to knit for homeless teens? It started out that we got a notice [that the military] needed soap holders. There’s 700 New Hampshire soldiers deployed, and they wanted people to knit as many soap holders as they could. … They use them as washcloths and you put soap in it. It’s like soap on a rope, in essence. In a month, we made 260. After we did that, we [learned of] a dinner in December for the homeless teens [organized by McLane and Child and Family Services]. I already had a baking group that would bake once a month for them. If you had backpacks and clothes and stuff, then we would take that over to them. So we already really had an established relationship with them. … We thought it would be really nice if we could give out hats and scarves [at the dinner].

soap holders because I got an email from somebody. After that project was over, we talked about doing for the homeless, which, again, we already have a relationship with. Courtesy photo.

How many do you make? We have to make 70 before Dec. 1. We have probably 50 scarves and probably 25 hats. Hats take a little bit longer. … I think we started in the middle of August. Basically our goal was to start Sept. 1 and do it until Dec. 1. Then we’re going to take a break for Christmas. Then in January we’re going to start the hats for babies in the hospital. … And we’re continuing to make hats for the military. All these causes are great but we really do love the military and love doing stuff for them. [We make] wool hats that they wear under their hats in the winter time. In fact, I already gave some wool hats to a woman soldier that I know [who] is deployed, and she just said how wonderful it is to have.

How long have you been knitting? Most of the group, we haven’t really knitted for years and years and years. But once you basically learn the basic stitch, then you can go up [to more advanced designs]. We have a woman here who’s a really proficient crocheter — it’s really crocheting, not knitting — and she actually taught us different stitches to make for the soap holders and the hats and the scarves. She’s like our teacher. … [When] knitting you usuAre you working with any local ally use two needles, and with crocheting you just use a crochet hook. So you hook charities? For the homeless teens it’s Child and the yarn around to make different stitches Family Services and for the military stuff, with it. it’s usually the Soldier’s Helpers out of How do you choose the causes you Rochester. For the hospitals, we’re probably going to do the Elliot and CMC donate to?

The drug used to revive drug users who are overdosing from opiates, naloxone or Narcan, has seen a dramatic rise in price in recent months and years. NPR reported the price of a single dose was only about a dollar. By February cities across the country were paying $20 a dose and by July that doubled to $40. New Hampshire was on of 40 states that have passed laws facilitating greater access to the drug so demand is increasing. Meanwhile, there’s only a single manufacturer of the nasal spray version of the drug, which can set any price without fear of competition. QOL Score: -1 Comment: The nasal spray delivery method is not explicitly approved by the FDA.

New Hampshire is receiving about $1.25 million in federal funding to combat substance abuse among youth in the state. The AP reported the money will be divvied up as 10 grants of $125,000 by the Drug Free Communities Support Program. First time recipients include programs in Somersworth, Raymond, Franklin, Hill and Winchester. Grants were also given to past recipients in Merrimack, Rochester, Lebanon, Keene and Nashua. QOL Score: +1 Comment: Gov. Maggie Hassan and Sen. Jeanne Shaheen announced the awards.

Bunnies rebounding The New England Cottontail will not be listed as an endangered species, thanks to the collaborative efforts to restore its habitat in the region. NHPR reported the rabbit has been a candidate for the endangered list since 2006, but states worked with landowners to cut trees and plant shrubs to make 18,000 acres of new habitat. Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell and Sen. Jeanne Shaheen ceremonially released two radiocollared rabbits into habitat grown in Ambrose Farm in Dover. The rabbits are being bred in a Rhode Island zoo. The announcement was hailed as a model of conservation that will be touted across the country. QOL Score: +1 Comment: Avoiding the ‘endangered’ label means state officials don’t have to deal with federal oversight.

close when he brings the Eagles to Foxboro on Dec. 6. The Andrew Luck Coronation: Everyone’s putting him in the top QB group. But call me crazy, 40 TD passes or not, you can’t be called elite with the record he has in his four games against the Patriots. Maybe he’ll put that to rest in Week 6, but for now, like his predecessor in Indy, he goes into the talented/dangerous category who has yet to deliver when it counts most, like Sunday vs. Buffalo. The Next Great QB Rivalry: Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota became the first QBs taken first and second overall to face each other in their first NFL game on Sunday. Was that the start of something special? I doubt it. Based on my golden gut long before Sunday I’ve got Winston going the Vince Young, Ryan Leaf and RGIII bust route. Will There be an Act II for RG: The tales of Young and Leaf say no. But there was one for Jim Plunkett, who, after being battered in New England, then being traded and flaming out in San Francisco, re-emerged to lead Oakland to two SB wins in the ’80s, so it’s possible. Beckham Still a Catch: Speaking of my gut. Odell Beckham certainly was great last year, but if I were the Giants I’d have a queasy feeling seeing him hanging with TMZ gadfly Amber Rose. The fame thing gets guys sometimes. When Does the Axe Fall in D.C.? With Washington’s Bozo owner in buddy RGIII’s corner through his incredible fall from rookie star to third stringer it’s already cost one coach his job and I’ve got Week 8 as the over-under for when Jay Gruden is next. Who Goes to L.A. — SD, Oakland or St. Louis? One or two teams will be moving to L.A. Who will it be, and what will be the reaction in their cities this season? I’m betting the Rams go back to where they rightly belong and the cash-poor, stadiumpoor Raiders take their place in St. Louis. Though if that happens let’s hope they leave the name/records/uniforms behind for future

expansion in Oakland. And don’t forget, if it’s the Chargers they’d also be going home, as L.A. was their first home in the AFL. The Collapse of the 49ers: I can’t remember ever seeing a good team fall as quickly when age wasn’t the factor. Thank internal politics (Jim Harbaugh), accumulated injuries (Patrick Willis and others) and troubled lives (Aldon Smith, Tim MacDonald) for most of it. The Seattle Hangover: They’ve got holdouts and lost guys to salary cap issues but they also added Jimmy Graham and Fred Jackson and don’t have San Fran to worry about either. Sunday’s OT loss to the Rams after Pete’s latest bonehead move makes you wonder, but I’ll believe it when I see it. Green Bay — Super Bowl-bound: Great quarterback, very good coach, solid running game, yada, yada, yada. But there’s something about them I just don’t like and gagging it against Seattle in the NFC title game didn’t help that. So they’ll have to prove it. This is Dallas’ Year: My friend George Copadis thinks this is Jerry Jones AC’s year. Of course he’s thought that every year since Eddie LeBaron was under center. It wouldn’t kill me if something good happened to Tony Romo, but I’ve never believed less in a guy I like than him. The good news is there’s still time to add another social dreg before Greg Hardy can play in Week 5. The Jets: It’s going to be hard to top having their quarterback sucker-punched by a teammate during summer camp, which has Geno Smith missing the first month. But they’re the Jets so you never know. Of course after scoring 31 on Cleveland that may actually be a good thing. They’ve also got defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson missing four games on a PED rap and probably headed for more after his arrest for allegedly driving 120 mph plus with a child in the car.

With the NFL’s opening weekend in the books, it’s on to Week 2 and our annual look at the top stories to follow as it unfolds. Revitalized AFC East: With all four teams starting with a win, for the first time since 2002 there’s a real race in the East. Yes, Miami won in 2008, but the 11-5 Pats only lost it on a tiebreaker when Tom Brady played 8 minutes all year. So that was luck. But with Rex in charge of a very good D in Buffalo, whom we see this week, and Ndamukong Suh added to a decent defense and an improving QB in Miami, those two have legit shots. Plus with Darrelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie (injured Sunday, though) added to a great front four in New York they’ll give anyone trouble even with their QB situation. Is This the End? Rumors say this could be it for 39-year-olds Peyton Manning and (maybe) Charles Woodson, as how many DBs have ever played into their 40s? Answer: None. The End to the Brady-Manning Rivalry: If he does hang them up, the Nov. 29 game will be the final meeting between arguably the NFL’s greatest ever rivals — unless they meet in the playoffs. So we’ll get one more round of the Who is the Best? media circus even though the head-to-head and playoff records certainly say Brady has clinched the title already. The Chip Kelly Overhaul: Talk to most folks in Philly and they think Chip Kelly is nuts. Most notably for trading quarterback Nick Foles and top runner LeSean McCoy and cutting other key guys for what Mitt Romney might call a “severely” injury-prone QB in Sam Bradford and a linebacker who played for him at Oregon. Talk is if it all goes bad he could be out of a job. My guess is neither will happen — but time will tell. And we’ll get to see it up

SPORTS DAVE LONG’S PEOPLE, PLACES & OTHER STUFF

Bedford has action-packed win The Big Story: When you see that one team scored 69 points you know there was a lot of action in the game, but that tells just part of the story in Bedford’s 69-27 win over Nashua South. It was a game packed with big plays as nine of the game’s touchdowns came from at least 29 yards or more and five from more than 60. It included an 81-yard run for a score on a QB draw by Bedford’s Connor Robert and an 80-yard score on a throw from South’s Joseph Bernard to Derek Downing. Most came from Bedford of course as Nick Leahy had a pair of 45-yard TDs on a pass and run from scrimmage, Robert ran 61 with another keeper and Shahrukh Hussain returned a pick 65 yards for a score. The star of stars was Robert, a sophomore making his first start, who ran for 158 yards, threw for 139 more and accounted for five TDs overall. Sports 101: On this date in 1979 George Brett became the sixth player to have 20 doubles, triples and homers in one season. Only two more have done it since, both in the same year. Name them. The Numbers: A 3-2 win over Win-

The Numbers

0 – goals allowed by the Central boys in 3-0 and 4-0 soccer wins over Dover and Memorial respectively as Zach Elliot and Evan MacDonald had a goal in each game and goalkeeper Aidan Ryan collected both shutouts. 3 – corner kick goals for the Bedford boys as they ran their winning streak to four to start the soccer season

nacunnet came on an Alex Materkowski goal in OT that gave 4-0 Merrimack as many wins by the end of the season’s second week as it had all last year. Nick of Thyme Award: To Isabella DiZillo, whose goal in OT gave Trinity its first soccer win 2-1 over Goffstown. Haley Burgess gave the Pioneers an early first-half lead and Alyssa Bourque’s second-half goal forced the eventual overtime. Sports 101 Answer: Jimmy Rollins and Curtis Granderson each had 20 doubles, triples and homers in a season to match Brett in 2007. The four before Brett were Willie Mays (1957), Sonny Jim Bottomley (1927), Jeff Heath (1941) and the Cubs’ Fran Schult (1911, when hitting 20 homers was a feat). On This Date – Sept. 17: 1931 – Red Sox Earl Webb sets all-time doubles record with 65 before finishing with 67. 1968 – Giants hurler Gaylord Perry no-hits St Louis 1-0 a day before the Cards’ Ray Washburn returns the favor with a no-no over SF. 2004 – Barry Bonds hits his 700th career homer.

with a 4-0 win over Manchester Memorial while the fourth goal came on a penalty kick from Connor Keiffer. 7 – goals scored by (hey) Saylor Clark to lead Bedford to 6-0 and 7-0 wins over Memorial and Keene last week as goalkeeper Danielle Acerned pitched a shutout. 69 – wins against 71 losses for the New Hampshire

Fisher Cats as their season came to an end with a threegame sweep of the Trenton Thunder over Labor Day weekend. 84 – yards in a scoring jaunt by Jeremyah Rivera that was the longest scoring strike in Central’s 31-6 win over Memorial when the passing combo of Jacob Stanko to James Tanguay hooked up for two scores in the win.

Sports Glossary Ryan Leaf: Texas prisoner number 56736432. The book coming out of Washington State when he was drafted second overall behind Peyton Manning in 1998 was he had all the tools to be a great quarterback. But it was clear over time he had all tools except a heart, a brain and a soul. Plus he was a bad guy. Vince Young: The best player in college football’s greatest game when he passed for 200 plus and ran for 200 plus as Texas beat USC in the 2005 championship game. The talent evaluators didn’t like the throwing motion, but he started out well in Tennessee, but after his boneheaded side surfaced it was all downhill there, and in Philly and Buffalo as well. Amber Rose: Vapid, new age gadfly famous for being famous and with the help of a voluminous Twitter feed read by legions of young’ns even more vapid than she. Now reportedly seeing Giants wide-out Odell Beckham in what can’t be called his best catch of the past year. Jim Plunkett: Was 1971 Rookie of the Year after being taken first overall by the Patriots. But he got beaten down on bad teams in New England and was traded to San Francisco for a windfall of picks. Landed as back-up in Oakland after the SF flame-out and when Dan Pastorini went down Plunkett regained his groove to win two SB wins for a Kurt Warner-like career — good beginning, bad middle, nice finish.

While its 2004 opening is hardly ancient history, Flag Hill has the distinction of being the very first distillery to open in New Hampshire since Prohibition. “This is actually one of the oldest microdistilleries in the country,” Flag Hill owner Brian Ferguson said. Ferguson says the trend of micro-distilling began in the late 1990s. “And in just the last couple years, it's completely exploded, and that's true across the whole U.S., not just New Hampshire,” Ferguson said. “We've seen it grow from about 300 distillers a couple years ago to like 1,000-plus now.” Flag Hill is selling its products in New Hampshire, Massachusetts and New

York City. “We're working on getting our gin into Vermont and Maine,” Ferguson said. Competing in New York City has been difficult, though, since several microdistilleries set up shop in Brooklyn and consumers are drawn to the hyper-local options. Still, Ferguson says Flag Hill does well for itself. “We're well-established. We have pretty good sales for a small distillery, and we've been very slowly growing,” Ferguson said. He says it helps that the company has its hands in other operations like its winery and catering business. That diversity made it far less risky to break into making spirits. “Roughly, on average, we're around 3,000 cases [sold] a year, which is tiny. Most big distilleries do that in a day,” Ferguson said. Ferguson uses a small, hybrid pot and column still designed by Christian Carl. “The still is designed to do many, many different things because small distilleries are nimble. We make whiskey, gin, vodka, brandy, cordials, rum, all kinds of stuff,” Ferguson said. Most of their products are made from apple cider that comes from Apple Hill

TERMINOLOGY Feedstock: Sugar source for fermenting Case: 12 bottles (750ml) Head: Acetone-heavy alcohol released early from a still Heart: The cut of the distillate rich in ethyl alcohol Tail: The final cut of the distillate in which the flavor drops off, taking on a burnt characteristic. Often reclaimed for other use by distillers Maceration: Steeping ingredients into a spirit Mashing: Converting complex starches in grains into simple sugars. Also known as saccharification. Mash: Porridge-like sweet juice from malted grains ready to be fermented Wort: The liquid juice filtered out of the mash Rickhouse: Warehouse for storing whiskey barrels RTDs: Ready-to-drink spirits that are bottled and sold without aging Angel’s share: The amount of alcohol that evaporates while aging in barrels Proof: Two times the percentage of alcohol (i.e. 100 proof is 50 percent alcohol)

Now, he has product releases for aged spirits scheduled between now and 2020, starting with straight bourbon whiskey, which will be unveiled during a Bluegrass and Bourbon Hoedown on Nov. 7 at the winery. “This year it's bourbon. Next year, it's rye. The following year, it's probably going to be 12-year-old Niagara brandy. The year after that it's gonna be 12-year-old apple brandy and the year after that will probably be our heavy rum, which at that point will be seven years old, roughly,” Ferguson said. Bourbon is a type of whiskey made with 51 percent corn and aged for a minimum of two years in new charred oak barrels. Other types of whiskey can be aged for different periods of time. “We've been making bourbon quite a bit differently than what a lot of small distillers are doing, mainly because we're waiting on it,” Ferguson said. Some small distillers get around the time restraints by using small barrels for something like three months to simulate the aging that takes place for several years in a large barrel. But Ferguson says aging is about more than just imbuing the charred oak flavor and brown coloration. It's about letting the barrels breathe. “You have to have good raw material, you have to do a good job mashing it, you have to do a good job distilling it and then you have to wait on it,” Ferguson said. “We let it open age in an open climate rickhouse. It's cold in the winter; it's warm in the summer.” It's that temperature fluctuation that happens between day and night, winter and summer, that Ferguson says will make this a truly New Hampshire product.

Farm in Concord. “Apples are about as New England as it gets right now in terms of agriculture, so it's the perfect feedstock to be the base for everything,” Ferguson said. In a typical year, they'll bring in about 10 2,200-gallon tanks of cider between September and late winter. “That makes up about 60 percent of our feedstock,” Ferguson said. “We make our gin from that base, we make our sugar maple liqueur from the base, we make our Josiah Bartlett Apple Brandy, we make our vodka from that.” Other products include an award-winning gin, a white rum, a spiced rum, and fruity liqueurs made with apple, cranberry, blueberry and maple sugar. One of their newest products is White Mountain Moonshine, made from a corn and barley mash processed at the Smuttynose Brewery. Ferguson is a distiller by trade. When he came to Flag Hill two years ago, he didn't plan on buying it, but when the opportunity presented itself last June, that's what he did. Now, he wants to leverage his distilling skills to make it a bigger part of what the company does. And making whiskey, bourbon and other aged spirits is the key to making that happen. “I would like it to be maybe 80 to 90 percent of the business,” Ferguson said. Aged spirits are increasingly popular in the marketplace. Virtually everyone making spirits wants to age them, but since Flag Hill was the first local distillery, it's already had more than a decade's head start over everyone else in the state. While it's expensive to sit on a product for years, aged spirits are more profitable. Ferguson estimates the whiskey barrels in his rickhouse are appreciating in value by about 8 percent each year.

They've got booze in their blood, and that's before they've had a drop. Emerson College film professor Robert Spruill and his brother Joshua are opening the New England Sweetwater Farm & Distillery in Winchester. Rob Spruill bought a farm in the small New Hampshire town along the Massachusetts border for his parents in the late 1990s. When his mother died a few years ago, he inherited the more than 50 acres of property. It didn't take long for Spruill to get to work on his dream of starting a distillery. He’s hoping to continue the legacy of his grandfather. “Him and his brother owned a juke joint [in North Carolina], which is like an African-American blues bar back from the ‘30s and ‘40s. My grandfather's job was supply-

Of the craft distillers in New Hampshire, few if any can boast what John Pantelakos can. He taught himself welding and built his own 250-gallon copper pot still. After a grueling seven-month process of trial and error, sealing leaks and balking at boiler salesmen's price tags, he installed his own heating system, main still and 35-gallon testing still. Pantelakos said it usually costs distillers close to $350,000 to get started, but he got it done with less than a third of that, and making his own still was a big part of the savings.

ing the product, so to speak,” Spruill said. Spruill’s original plan was to set up shop in the farm itself. But when they first proposed the idea, not everyone in town was in favor. “All of the neighbors sued the town and said we couldn't have a distillery there, and we eventually won. That took about a year in court to get sorted out,” Spruill said. But his difficulties didn't end there. The federal government wouldn't award a permit because of the farm's proximity to the house. Their options were to upgrade electricity and plumbing in the old farmhouse or find a new location. “We were recently smarting from getting rejected by the feds and a building downtown in Winchester ... [became] available,” Spruill said. “So we ended up down on Main Street.” He says what began as a modest plan of using crops from the farm for a little 10-gallon farm still became a much more ambitious operation with downtown headquarters and a custom-made combo mash tun stripping still with 100-gallon and 50-gallon pot stills. They obtained a federal permit last year and a state license in August, about the time they were finishing the installation of the stills. “We just have one more to go, which is

the permit of assembly so that people can come into our tasting room,” Spruill said. “That actually comes from our local fire chief.” The farm can still be used as part of the distillery operation for secondary functions like juicing fruits or housing barrels for aging. Spruill muses that despite New Hampshire's relatively friendly regulations, in some ways it might have been easier to set up in Boston because at least there, inspectors would be familiar with distilleries. “Whereas here, in our county — Cheshire County — we're the first one. Everyone comes in, scratches their heads and has to figure out how to invent the wheel,” Spruill said. He recalls having to persuade the local planning board that stills are not pressure vessels when some board members were convinced to the contrary. But despite the earlier pushback from the neighborhood, he says folks have been largely supportive. One of his most unique products for the state will be a single malt scotch whiskey.

While many people are familiar with the results of the distilling process (whether you turn it into your favorite cocktail or enjoy it straight up) the process itself can be a mystery. Though it does involve multiple steps and sci-fi-looking equipment, what goes on inside a distillery can be broken down into a few simple stages. The distillers we talked to explained how it’s done. First you start with raw materials — usually sugar rich foods like fruits, grains or molasses — which are broken down, cooked and mixed with water to make a mash. During

the mashing process, the complex starches in the raw materials are converted to simple sugars. Then the mash goes through one of the two main processes for making spirits — fermentation, in which alcohol is created by combining sugar and yeast. The yeast feeds on the sugar, yielding a byproduct of ethanol and carbon dioxide. For products like beer or wine, the process pretty much ends here. But for spirits, the next step is distillation, which is simply the process of separating alcohol from water. This is done through a cycle of heat-

ing and cooling in a still where the alcohol is vaporized and condensed over a period of hours, producing drops of the distilled spirits. Depending on what spirit is being made, the next steps involve layering flavor profiles or barrel aging. Liquors like whiskey are made from what is essentially beer without hops. Similarly, brandy is made from distilling wine. Other spirits are defined by their raw materials, their alcohol level, ingredients added during the distillation process and the amount of time they age in oak barrels.

“Saved myself a lot of money. A still like this can go anywhere from $30,000 to $50,000 to $100,000 depending on who you go to,” Pantelakos said. He estimates the cost of the still without labor was about $14,000. Pantelakos taught himself how to make spirits after a Caribbean cruise he took with his wife four years ago, when he discovered different kinds of rums. When he returned to New Hampshire, he visited Sea Hagg in North Hampton and Turkey Shore Distilleries in Ipswich, Mass. He asked questions, took notes and read up.

Tamworth Distilling is the brainchild of marketing master Steven Grasse, the guy behind Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum, Hendrick's Gin and the Art in the Age organic liqueurs. The micro-distillery he built in the rural northern town along the Swift River is not meant for mass production. It's meant to take spirits back to their organic and agricultural roots. “I want to play with a different model here,” Grasse said. He's always had other people make his creations, but now he has a craft distillery to call his own. He plans on using it as a test kitchen while selling small, limited-release batches of products to test the waters of the market. “It was always frustrating. We never really get exactly what we want because we're one step removed from the process. So we wanted to have one of our own test kitchens to be

able to make exactly what we're looking for and make a lot of different things,” Grasse said. “We keep saying it's the Willy Wonka [factory] for booze.” If they pushed the Vendome stills to their limits, they could probably produce about 10,000 cases a year, but he never plans on doing that. Grasse doesn't want quantity to compromise the quality. “We're trying to be extremely limited in what we create, not just as a marketing tool, but also because we want to really create exceptional, amazing things,” Grasse said. “I want to have, in New Hampshire, the best craft distillery in America. … That's the goal.” While he has lofty goals, operating a successful distillery for Grasse is a simple formula.

“You gotta have a good distillery and you gotta have a point of difference and a way of doing business that is unique,” Grasse said. The distillery opened in May and has already made ripples in the world of liquors with some of its early offerings. “The thing that makes our distillery unique ... is my standing in the spirits industry. I've had three hit products in a row,” Grasse said. Right now, there is demand for fewer artificial flavors and more natural and, if possible, locally sourced ingredients. Consumers are starting to realize it makes for a better drinking experience, and Grasse hopes to meet that demand. He says if a product takes off, he can use his connections in the industry to seal an international distribution deal with a big company like William Grant & Sons. If he needs to ramp up production, he'd just build another facility. For now, he says he picked Tamworth for two reasons. The first is the water. “The Ossipee Aquifer is one of the purest on the coast, if not the whole country,” Grasse said. Plus, he adds, “you can't frack in granite.” The second reason is the history of the town. “[Henry David] Thoreau spent time here and I was drawn to that history and story. It's a part of New Hampshire that is still very pure and it just seemed like a really

interesting place to set down roots along the Swift River,” Grasse said. And the state as a whole is a good place for a distillery, he said. “New Hampshire is the third biggest single buyer of spirits in the world. You got Canada ... you've got Pennsylvania and then you've got New Hampshire,” Grasse said. Right now, you can only buy Tamworth’s products in the distillery itself. “We're going to be in New York City in September in very limited quantities and we're going to start selling wholesale to the state very soon,” Grasse said. Though Grasse doesn't have much of a hand in the day-to-day, his older brother David is overseeing the operation while a master distiller, Jamie Oakes, and a chemist, Matt Power, toil away making experimental batches.

17 he read about and visited as many distilleries as he could while maintaining his job as an engineer, but didn’t decide to finally make the move until 2013. “[I thought], I’m gonna do it now, and told my wife and she didn't think much of it until big boxes started showing up,” he said. He enlisted the help of his father, brother, uncle and stepfather for the building’s construction and equipment installation. “I devoted evenings and weekends for a full year [to] my building construction and design and getting it up and going,” he said. Prior to opening Smoky Quartz, Kurland’s only involvement with the spirits industry was drinking it, which meant starting his own distillery took a big leap of faith. “Opening a distillery is a distinctly different animal,” he said. “You can make beer and wine at your house [but] you can't legally distill in your house.” Before the licensing process can even begin there has to be a dedicated location,

and equipment must be either purchased or ordered. “It was a big dice roll,” he said. “But I figured … I could make very good basic products.” He started with vodka because clear spirits can be made fairly quickly. Next he made a white corn whiskey moonshine followed by a Caribbean-style rum and then bourbon, which sold out — all 550 bottles — in only two months. Smoky Quartz products are all made with a single 300-gallon still, and Kurland is in the process of adding a second still to be dedicated solely to whiskey. All of his products are distilled with Monadnock Mountain Spring Water from Wilton, a point of pride for the New Hampshire native, who named his business after the state’s gemstone — the smoky quartz. “I’ve gotten an exceptionally positive feedback on that name,” he said. Though some people come to the distillery expecting to find a rock and gem shop, most head in knowing they are visiting a veteranowned and locally sourced distillery. “I think this just plays to … the roots of where I am right now,” he said. “I’m very proud to be in the New Hampshire Air National Guard for 17 years. That’s part of my identity. I travel around the country [and] there's a lot of pluses to being associated with New Hampshire … to leverage the good reputation of the state with my business.”

While the alcohol is in its vapor form in the still, it passes through the botanicals in a downward flow, picking up the flavors and aromas. A small amount of condensation occurs because of slight heat loss in the metal container so as the vapor turns to a liquid it collects in the sides of the botanicals and drips down into the output. “It actually picks up a little bit of color off of the botanicals that way,” he said. The next spirit they made was an aged version of the white whiskey called Beat 3

Reserve. “With the aged [whiskey] we needed to have a process that we could get to market with a product relatively soon,” Andy Harthcock said. Beat 3 Reserve is put in small 20-liter barrels, allowing it to age in months rather than years. The last and perhaps most unique product Djinn Spirits produces is krupnik, a spiced honey liqueur. “A friend of mine who’s Polish posted her recipe [on Facebook] for this spiced liqueur that her family makes,” Cindy Harthcock said. Curious, she researched the origin of Krupnik and other recipes. Starting with a high proof neutral grain spirit, Djinn’s Krupnik is made with honey from D’s Busy Bees in Amherst and Cindy’s mix of traditional spices like peppercorns (which is what “makes Krupnik, Krupnik,” she said) and her own inspiration like fresh ginger and allspice before aging it in used whiskey barrels. Currently in the works at Djinn is an apple pie moonshine product made with local apples. “You take a moonshine base spirit and add apple cider and spices to it,” Cindy Harthcock said. “It’s a nice fall product, and it’s a nice alternative for people that don’t drink wine [or] beer.” Coming out in mid-November is Djinn’s malt whiskey that’s been aged in 15-gallon barrels for a year.

ARTS What artists need to know Local attorneys provide advice By Kelly Sennott

ksennott@hippopress.com

Copyright laws. Contracts. Consignments. How much do you know about these topics? Artists who get into trouble usually know very little. Sometimes next to zilch. Which is how, locally, husKimberly Peaslee. Courtesy photo. band-wife team Drs. Kate and Peter McGovern found a market for their expertise. They present a workshop along with Amanda Nelson, Esq., “What Artists and Fine Crafts People Should Know, But Don’t,” at the Mill Brook Gallery & Sculpture Garden Saturday, Sept. 19. McGowan Fine Art Artist’s Legal Series McGowan Fine Art (10 Hills Ave., Concord) also hosts a series of informal seminars for artists focusing on legal issues presented by Kimberly Peaslee, intellectual property lawyer at Upton & Hatfield. They’re held the third Tuesday, Sept. through April, except in December. These are free, seating limited; call 225-2515 to RSVP. Visit mcgowanfineart.com for details/descriptions and more information. Upcoming seminars include: • Design Protection Options/Overlapping IP Strategies Tues., Oct. 20, at 5:30 p.m. • Copyright 101 Tues., Nov. 17, at 5:30 p.m. • Copyright Registration: A Practicum Tues., Jan. 19, at 5:30 p.m.

The pair are art connoisseurs themselves, as are their children — one son is a gallery owner married to an artist, another a Currier Museum employee. They hate seeing talented professionals getting robbed for their work, yet they have, time and time again. An artist walks into a gift shop and sees her art printed on note cards. A photographer finds his work on a poster, a songwriter discovers his music posted by someone else online. All without permission. “[Artists] need to approach the fact that they’re in the business, and what their principal asset is is their creativity. So consequently, we go through discussions about how to protect that creativity,” Peter McGovern said. “It’s a question of learning how to do business as an artist and craftsperson.” The couple are adjunct professors at the University of Connecticut School of Law, but they also teach the subject to UConn fine art undergraduates and have been bringing their workshops to New Hampshire the past two years. They saw that among artists, there was little education on Attend “What Artists and Fine Crafts People Should Know, But Don’t” Where: Mill Brook Gallery & Sculpture Garden, 236 Hopkinton Road, Concord When: Saturday, Sept. 19, from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Admission: $25; bring bagged lunch, beverages and dessert provided What: Peter and Kate McGovern and Amanda Nelson will talk about copyright laws, contracts, consignments and estate planning.

the topic and so many urban legends — like the poor man’s copyright. “People are still putting their precious work into an envelope and posting it to themselves,” Kate McGovern said. “There’s just so much misinformation.” Luckily there are easy things you can do yourself. The Copyright Act of 1976 ensures artists’ work is copyrighted as soon as it’s completed, but in order for it to truly be protected, it needs to be registered. “They don’t realize how easy it is,” Kate McGovern said. “Copyright, in a sense, becomes automatic. But if you want to go to trial, you have to have your work registered with the Copyright Office. It’s $35. You can go online to copyright.gov, send along a photo, or if you’re working with text, you would find your form — everything’s on the title page! ... And artists can do it themselves. That’s the beauty of it.” Yet most creative people they talk to don’t do this because they don’t know they should or they don’t know it’s that simple — or that it lasts your entire life and then 70 years after that. Kate McGovern’s expertise is in copyright, while Peter McGovern will tackle contracts, consignments and commissions. Nelson will cover estate planning. But the most important thing for artists to do, they said, is to be aware, because it’s so easy to have work stolen today. Social media, for instance, is how most artists market their work, but the effect is a double-edged sword: when you put something on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, you’re essentially giving other people permission to use it. “People have to look at the terms of agreement, the terms of service,” Kate

McGovern said. There’s some effort to spread the word — Kate McGovern mentioned Benedict Cumberbatch, who asks audiences to please not record before every Hamlet stage performance. She also talked about Jay Z’s Tidal, an online music service that looks to better benefit artists, and Richard Prince, who took photos from several Instagram accounts for an art show and sold some for as much as $100,000. The pair put out a reminder at the end of the interview that this is legal information, not legal advice, and that they do it because they love art. “We laugh and tell people we’re like Jake and Elwood on a mission from God. We do collect art ourselves. My background is in theater, and Peter does a bit of pastel and oil work. We just feel that it’s our responsibility as attorneys, and in this particular area, it’s something people should know,” Kate McGovern said.

40th Annual NH Highland Games & Festival returns to Lincoln By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

Loon Mountain will become the Scottish Highlands from Friday, Sept. 18, to Sunday, Sept. 20, for the 40th Annual NH Highland Games & Festival. Started in 1975 as a gathering for the Clan Murray, this large event now features three days of Scottish athletic and music competitions, entertainment, food, seminars, kids’ activities and more. “It’s a wonderful celebration of all things Scottish … and that whole area in the White Mountains is very reminiscent of being in Scotland,” Patti Nisco, executive director for NHSCOT, said. “We are probably the largest Highland Games in the eastern United States and possibly one of the top three in the entire country.” The heavy athletics competitions will include the caber toss, weight over bar, weight for distance, sheaf toss and hammer throw. Some athletes are also invited to participate in the Loon Stone Carry, which requires carrying two stones weighing 234 lbs. and 274 lbs. as far as possible by gripping the ring handles, and the Jon Pall Stone Carry, which requires carrying a triangular 475-pound stone as far as possible. The games attract top athletes from the U.S., Canada, Scotland, Iceland and across Europe; one of them is special guest Hafþór Björnsson, an international strongman competitor who also played “The Mountain” in seasons 4 and 5 of HBO’s Game of Thrones. Björnsson broke the record for the NHHG&F Jón Páll Stone Carry last year, reaching 258 feet. Other competitions include the sheep dog trials, where sheep dogs 40th Annual NH Highland Games & Festival Where: Loon Mountain, right off Interstate 93 at Exit 32, Lincoln When: Friday, Sept. 18, to Sunday, Sept. 20 Cost: Admission is $20 on Friday and Sunday, $35 on Saturday, and free each day for children ages 14 and under accompanied by an adult.

must lead a herd of sheep through an obstacle course as quickly as possible, and music competitions for Highland dance, individual piping and drumming, pipe bands, fiddle and harp. There will be up to four venues with live music throughout the weekend. Half of the performers will play traditional Celtic music, primarily with string instruments, and the other half will play more contemporary tunes. “It’s called ‘rock and roll bagpipes,’” Nisco said. “[The bands] either play traditional Scottish music with a rock and roll edge, or play a contemporary rock song and add bagpipes to it, so it melds both genres very nicely.” For food, there will be non-Scottish options like hot dogs, hamburgers, salads and such, as well as the Scottish favorites like fish, haggis, bridies

and shepherd’s pie. Special meals include the tartan dinner, a mixology evening where Scotch cocktails will be paired with different dishes, a Cape Breton-inspired buffet dinner and whiskey and beer tastings. Various educational seminar topics include genealogy, Celtic knot work and the art of Highland dress, and a “Living History” area will have actors’ reenactments of significant events in Scottish history. The NHHG&F children’s program features crafts like making Scottish warrior shields and flags out of tartan, a Celtic storyteller, a puppeteer and “heavy athletics competitions” adapted for kids. “There’s very much a variety of people who come,” Nisco said. “You don’t need to be Scottish to enjoy what’s on site that weekend. There’s something for everyone to enjoy.”

IN/OUT THE GARDENING GUY

Clean up your lawn Now is the perfect time By Henry Homeyer

listings@hippopress.com

This is a good time to do some improvements on your lawn. If you have crabgrass, lawn ivy (Creeping Charlie) or bare spots where the kids played badminton, now is the time to get to work. I recently called Paul Sachs, owner of North Country Organics and the author of three books on lawn care. Testing pH is a good first step, Sachs said. If your soil is too acidic or too alkaline, minerals can be bound up and unavailable to your turf plants even if they are present. You can get a simple test kit at a garden center, or take a sample and mail it to your state Extension Service soil testing lab for a more extensive report. He warned that the first time someone adds limestone to their lawn — and fall is a good time for that — they may see a remarkable improvement the following spring. But, he warned, don’t keep on adding limestone without testing the pH. If you keep adding limestone every year your pH can get quite alkaline, which is just as bad as being too acidic. According to Sachs, fall is a good time to overseed your lawn if you have thin or worn places, or if you have crabgrass. The soil is warm now, so new grass seeds will germinate more quickly than in the spring. Crabgrass, an annual, is declining in vigor so you can crowd it out by adding seed. Crabgrass seeds are not going to germinate until the spring, but if you can establish a nice thick turf now, crabgrass will have a hard time competing with it next spring. It is best to sow a mixture of kinds of seed — a conservation mix that contains something like this: 35 percent creeping red

Creeping Charlie.

fescue, 25 percent turf type tall fescue, 10 percent Kentucky bluegrass, 12 percent turf type perennial ryegrass, 15 percent annual ryegrass and 3 percent white clover. That mixture is good for a variety of soils and will thrive in full sun or even moderate shade. Sachs told me that before you overseed an area, you should lower the height of the blades on your mower and give it a good haircut. That will allow newly started grass seeds to get more sunshine, which is important when it is getting established. So when filling in thin spots, you want to cut the grass close and allow new plants to develop. Fall is also a good time to thicken the lawn by providing some fertilizer.

blades of mower up high, allowing each grass plant to have more surface area for photosynthesis. That will help to pump up its roots. Knowing how much fertilizer to add and then figuring out how to spread it at the proper rate is a job for Einstein, I always thought. Paul Sachs helped me with the calculation. In general, he said you should add 20 to 30 pounds of fertilizer per 1,000 square feet of lawn if using Pro-Gro or other organic fertilizer with a 5-3-4 nutrient analysis (5-3-4 means 5 lbs of nitrogen, 4 of phosphate, 3 of potash per hundred weight). A 20-by-50-foot section of lawn is 1,000 square feet. Figure out the total square footage of your lawn, calculate the amount of fertilizer you need for the job, and then buy the appropriate number of bags. Start applying it in a push-type spreader.

spreader for a low rate of distribution, you can go over the lawn more than once until you have used all the fertilizer. Done. If part of the lawn got a little more than another part, no big deal, so long as every part of the lawn got some fertilizer. Compaction makes it difficult to for grasses to thrive, except crabgrass, of course. That’s why crabgrass invades areas where you frequently walk. Years ago Sachs told me a simple way to test for compaction: you should be able to push a screwdriver with a 6-inch shaft into the lawn with moderate force. If you can’t, the lawn needs help. You could hire a landscaper to come with a core-aerator or you could try to do something yourself. On-line I found an aerator at Sears for about $100 that can be pulled behind a riding lawn mower. It has 10 sharp steel stars that rotate and poke small 2-inch deep holes. And then were the aerator sandals that strap onto your shoes with spikes that poke holes in the soil — only $16 but it would seem like a lot of work to aerate the lawn that way. Sachs said, “If you stomp your feet into really compacted soil, the only way to escape is to undo the straps and pry them out with your hands. I learned what it must feel like when a fly lands on fly paper.” What about that pesky lawn ivy, commonly called Creeping Charlie? It is in the mint family and will grow almost anywhere. Sachs suggested raking it out with a short-tined garden and then fertilizing and overseeding. I tried raking it out, but found I pulled out my lawn grass, too. So maybe we just have to live with it. After all, if it’s green and you can mow it, I say it’s a lawn. Visit Gardening-Guy.com.

YOUR SMILE IS YOUR BEST ACCESSORY!

Dear Donna,

General & Cosmetic Dentistry Cleanings & Fillings Professional Whitening Extractions & Restorative Implants

I inherited what I believe to be a children’s bone china tea set. The insignia on the bottom of the pieces reads: P.S. Schirnding A.G. Bavaria. The set includes six tea plates and sugar and creamer pieces. All the pieces have children interacting with animals. I am interested in the history and value.

ADULTS & CHILDREN WELCOMING NEW PATIENTS FINANCING AVAILABLE

Carla Dear Carla, Thanks for writing in and sharing your sweet children’s tea set. I bet someone really enjoyed this set. The Schirnding Co. started in the early 1900s in Bavaria. It was started as a oneroom studio but quickly became a factory producing porcelains. The mark on your set dates the pieces back to between 1925 and 1936 — they used the crowned shield containing P.S.and A.G. divided by a band saying SCHIRNDING. They did many patterns even in the children’s sets, so it’s not unusual to not find the name of it. But knowing the maker and dates gives you a place to start at for giving it a value. The subject is a very pleasing one to collectors of children’s tea sets, and it looks to be in great condition.

Dogs’ day out

Animal Rescue League hosts a day of pet events

Hungry? Bored?

By Angie Sykeny

asykeny@hippopress.com

Join the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire at Derryfield Park on Saturday, Sept. 19, for a three-part pet event, which includes a pet fair, the Pet Step Walkathon and the My Dogs Are Barking 3M Road Race & Kids’ Fun Run. “We have other events during the year that are more for adults and tend to be more expensive,” Monica Zulauf, Rescue League president and CEO, said, “but for this, we wanted to have a community event people could go to with their dogs and their families.” The fair will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., and will have food, shopping, demonstrations, raffles, kids’ activities and more. Nearly 50 exhibitors will be there, including the Humane Society of the United States, several local veterinary hospitals, pet food businesses, doggie daycares, pet trainers and other rescue leagues. A play area with kiddie pools will be available for dogs to enjoy, and from 9 a.m. to noon, Puppy Please Dog Training will provide rings and other agility equipment to try out. The Granite State Disc Dogs will do a demonstration (1 p.m.), as will members from the Manchester Fire Department who will bring their working dog, Wynette, and explain how accelerant detection canines do their jobs (1:45 p.m.). “[The fair] is a great opportunity for people to bring their dogs and meet other dogs, especially for younger dogs [whom their owners] want to socialize,” Zulauf said. The My Dogs Are Barking 3M Road Race will begin at 10 a.m., and will launch in the park and circle around the surrounding streets. Competitive runners, recreational runners and walkers are all welcome to participate, with or without dogs. Participants will receive gift certificates for D La Pooch Hotel and Tokyo Joe’s, a collapsible dog bowl for their running dogs, and, for the first 500 registrants, a race shirt. First-place male and female finishers will be awarded a $100 gift card for Runner’s Alley, second-placers will receive $25 for T-Bone’s and third-placers will receive $15 for Runner’s Alley. “So many people train with their dogs for running, but most races exclude dogs,” Zulauf said, “so [allowing dogs] is a big draw, and it’s a chance for dogs to do their thing after all the training.” The Kids’ Fun Run will be at 11:15 a.m. and is a 100-yard dash for ages 4 and 5 and a 30-yard dash for ages 2 and 3. The Pet Step Walkathon begins at noon and circles around the park for about one mile. Dogs are welcome to join their owners in this

The team that raises the most funds in the walkathon will receive Dunkin’ Donuts gift cards, their names on a plaque in the lobby of the Rescue League and a legacy brick in the walkway. Individuals or teams that raise $100 per person will receive walkathon shirts. If you can’t make it to the event, you can still help the Rescue League on your own walk by printing out the “virtual walk sign” on their website, which reads, “I’m walking to help animals at the Animal Rescue League of New Hampshire.” Zulauf said people can upload a photo of themselves wearing the signs to social media with the hashtag #ARLNH to show their support.

have four drains. Two go down the A-pillar (at the sides of your windshield), and two go out the back. What we mechanics do is we’ll very slowly fill up that well around the sunroof with water. And we’ll see what happens. If it doesn’t drain out, we know the drains are plugged. They get plugged over time by outdoor debris — leaves, pollen, dirt, bird droppings — that gets in there with rainwater, whether or not your sunroof is open. But they’re easy to clean out. We just blow them out with compressed air, which works well. Then we’ll do a post-op check with some water to verify that they’re draining well. So ask your mechanic to give that a try. And by the way, that might have been what you needed last time, instead of a new sunroof. Dear Car Talk: I have a 2002 Lexus ES 300. The mechanic says that I have three cylinders misfiring in “bank 1.” I don’t know what to do. He sounds like he just wants money. He said it will be $90 an hour just to find out what’s making them misfire. The car is shaking, and the Check Engine light is blinking. What does it mean that cylinders are misfiring? And what is bank 1? — Josh Bank One was the name of that ballpark in Phoenix before they changed the name to “The Bank That Ate Bank One Ballpark.” Actually, in automotive terms, a bank is a set of cylinders.

engine, you have two banks of three cylinders each. Those banks form a “V” shape. That’s why they call it, what? A V-6! And “misfiring” just means that a cylinder is not firing every time it’s supposed to. Each cylinder in your engine is supposed to fire (that is, combust the fuel and air, and push the piston down) every other time the crankshaft turns. If a cylinder doesnfire every time it’s supposed to, it’s said to be misfiring. That makes the engine run rough and the car shake. And if you have three out of six cylinders that are badly misfiring, the car will barely run at all. In this car, as in many cars, the engine is installed transversely (aka sideways), so bank 1 is the cylinder bank closest to the passenger compartment. That makes it hard to reach, and requires removing other parts to get at it. So one possibility is that your spark plugs never got changed back there. Maybe you went in for a tune-up and some lazy mechanic had a hard time removing the pieces that are in the way of those plugs. He scraped his knuckles a few times, gave up, tossed the new spark plugs in his toolbox and said, “OK, pal, you’re all set.” That would be a nice, easy solution. Those plugs should last 100,000 miles. But if the plugs in bank 1 have been in there for 150,000, while the plugs in bank 2 were changed at some point, that could cause your misfiring. It also could be the coils. Each cylinder hensive, one day seminar provides participants with the tools necessary to understand and participate more effectively in the special education process. This seminar combines components of four of our most popular training sessions, including Steps in the NH Special Education Process, Disability Awareness, Parents and Educators: Partners in the Process, and The IEP Clinic. Sat., Sept. 19, 9:30

has a coil that generates the spark needed for the cylinder to fire. Those can go bad, too. Or you could have a crack in an intake manifold gasket, creating a big vacuum leak. That would cause very rough idling and misfiring. If it is a vacuum leak, those symptoms should disappear when you run the car at high speed. So if you can drive it on the highway with no misfiring and adequate power, that suggests a vacuum leak. But if the Check Engine light is flashing, you need to take care of this right away. That flashing light is warning you that the catalytic converter is being damaged. Your injectors are working, sending fuel into the cylinders, but the fuel isn’t getting combusted. Instead, the unburned fuel is going right through the cylinders into the exhaust system, where it’s ruining your catalytic converter. And that’s many hundreds of dollars. So if you don’t trust this particular mechanic, you need to find one you do trust, Josh. Someone needs to figure this out for you. You might check cartalk.com/mechanics-files. That’s a database of trusted and beloved mechanics, compiled by our own readers and radio listeners. You put in your ZIP code and read the love letters about shops in your area. But don’t panic and freeze up, Josh. It’s going to cost you some money to diagnose and fix this, but not fixing it will cost you even more. Good luck. Visit Cartalk.com.

Dear Car Talk: I have a 2003 Toyota RAV4 with the sports package. Two years ago, there was a water leak in the driver’s seat area — a lot of water. After several visits to two difBy Ray Magliozzi ferent repair places, they found that the sunroof was leaking, and they replaced it. I had no problems until recently. Now when slowing down or turning corners, there is a noise that sounds like water is sloshing around on the rooftop, even though there is nothing on the roof. How can we dry out the roof? — Sharon Get ready for another leak, Sharon. All sunroofs allow water to get into the sunroof well “inside” the roof. And because water inevitably gets in there, there are drains that are supposed to allow the water to flow out onto the ground. Your drains are plugged up — that’s why the water is sloshing around right over your head. When enough of it builds up, you’ll step on the brakes one day, and a bucket of water will pour out of the overhead console and onto your head. So, one of your options would be to set up your phone to film you while you’re driving, because that will make an excellent YouTube video.

About a year ago, this space outlined a bunch of services letting you store files online: cloud storage providers. It’s nice to have access to a bunch of free gigabytes out on the Internet, but remembering where you put everything can be a pain. To avoid aggravation, you might want to try aggregation. Free software helps you take tion of things other than pure storage. advantage of all that free storage. Here’s a look at some of your best bets. Jolicloud Drive

odrive

The free version of odrive only handles up to five cloud storage providers, but it does so very cleanly. It integrates into Windows and Mac desktops, establishing an “odrive” folder on your computer. You can also use odrive through its Web interface. Either way requires a Facebook or Google account to log in. Authorize your favorite providers and they start syncing into subfolders. You can connect Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, Amazon Cloud Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, and Copy, plus HTTPS and SFTP file servers. You can even hook up Facebook, Instagram, and Gmail to manage photos and emails. For up to 20 connections, including multiple accounts with the same providers, the Pro edition costs $99 per year.

MultCloud

If you don’t need or want synchronization to your local file system, MultCloud is one of the best purely Web-based aggregators. There seem to be no limits on the number of accounts you can connect, either to each cloud storage provider or in total. It supports Dropbox, Google Drive, Amazon Cloud Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, Amazon S3, SugarSync, Box, Copy, WebDAV, FTP, CloudMe, Cubby, myDrive, web.de, Yandex, HiDrive, and BaiDu. You can log into MultCloud with Facebook or Google credentials or just a username and password. Your quota and used storage are shown for each service (although folders shared from other users confuse it a bit). Transferring files between clouds is a simple drag-and-drop matter. There is a limit of 2TB on transfers, but sharing the gospel of MultCloud on social media entitles you to unlimited transfer. We’ll see if they ever start charging for anything.

FOOD Greek eats at Glendi Manchester festival celebrates 36 years By Allie Ginwala

News from the local food scene

aginwala@hippopress.com

By Allie Ginwala

Since 1980, St. George Greek Orthodox Cathedral has provided the Manchester community with an annual weekend of good times — literally. Glendi, the threeday festival held this year from Friday, Sept. 18, through Sunday, Sept. 20, means “good times,” and it’s one of the oldest Greek festivals to take root in the Queen City. “It’s basically like night and day,” Glendi co-chairperson George Copadis said, comparing the early years of Glendi to the current festival. “When it was started in 1980 it was basically the parish that participated with some outsiders, but now it’s an event that’s grown to about 30,000 people that attend over the three-day weekend.” William Kanteres, long time St. George’s member and former church vice president, recalled the moment he was inspired to try and bring a Greek food festival to Manchester. He went to a Greek festival in Springfield, Mass., while visiting his son, came back and told the church president his idea about starting something similar. Along with his fellow parishioners and family, Kanteres helped put the first Glendi into motion. “Nobody knew what festivals were, and then the following year or the second year the Assumption [Greek Orthodox] Church decided to have a festival,” he said in a phone interview. “And the next thing you know it started all over the place. It just kept growing and growing and look what it is today.” In the early years of Glendi, a group of women in the church would start making the meal two months in advance and store it in the church freezers. Now, food production begins in June and on a much larger scale. “We ended up having to expand the kitchen,” Copadis said. “[To] add stoves and refrigerators and ... we had to add two walk-in units for the amount of food that’s prepared for the festival.”

• Wine awards: LaBelle Winery (345 Route 101, Amherst, labellewinerynh.com) was recently awarded multiple medals from three wine competitions, according to a press release. At the “Big E” Northeast Gold Wine Competition, featuring wines from New England and New York, Labelle Winery won a gold, silver and bronze medal, along with the title of Best Fruit Wine/ Best NH Wine for their Cranberry wine. The International Women’s Wine Competition, judged by distinguished women in the wine industry, awarded a bronze medal to LaBelle’s Anthology. LaBelle’s Dry Riesling and Gewurztraminer won a bronze and silver respectively at the International “East Meets West” Wine Competition. • Eighty chocolatey years: Van Otis Chocolates (341 Elm St., Manchester, vanotischocolates.com) celebrates its 80th anniversary with the grand reopening of its newly renovated store on Friday, Sept. 18, and Sat., Sept. 19. “In anticipation of our 80th anniversary, we have tastefully renovated the store, combining original elements with a fresh new design that we think customers will enjoy,” owner Marc Amiet said in a press release. “We want to thank them during this open house and invite the community to join us in celebrating this special anniversary with some fun and flavorful activities.” From 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. on both days, guests are invited to sample chocolates, enjoy a chocolate fountain and enter to win a gift basket. On Friday, watch the candy makers at work and ask them questions, and on Saturday, purchase and decorate a caramel apple. Van Otis Chocolates was opened in 1958 on the corner of Chestnut and Cedar streets in Manchester by Evangeline Hasiotis, who had been successfully making chocolates and selling them from her family’s apartment on Spruce Street since 1935. She named the store “Van Otis” as a derivation of her first and last names and dedicated 60 years to her candy business. Today, Van Otis Chocolates’ candy makers still follow many of her original recipes. • Speaking of chocolate: Owner and master chocolatier Richard Tango-Lowy announced in a press release that Dancing Lion Chocolate (917 Elm St., Manchester) will no longer be serving savories, instead focusing just on the chocolate, as their 46

Glendi When: Friday, Sept. 18, through Sunday, Sept. 20. Open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday. Where: St. George Greek Orthodox Cathedral, 650 Hanover St., Manchester Visit: saintgeorgeglendi.com Food is priced per item. Free admission and shuttle service is available from McDonough School and Derryfield Park.

All of the food for the festival is prepared over the summer by a diligent group of parishioners. “They work all summer long,” he said. “They cook huge quantities of food.” This year, St. George’s will make 5,000 dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves), 4,000 meatballs, 8,000 pieces of spinach pita and 800 pounds of rice. The rest of the menu for Glendi features tried and true dishes that guests come to eat year after year, like stuffed peppers, barbecued or baked lamb shank, loukoumades (fried dough soaked in syrup and sprinkled with cinnamon and powdered sugar), kataifi (shredded filo with walnuts and syrup), baklava, ravani (cake made with farina and soaked in syrup), gyros, loukaniko (Greek sausage) and baklava. Greek wine and beer will also be available along with this year’s new menu item — chicken souvlaki. “We thought we’d try something different for a change,” Copadis said. “It’s seasoned chicken with lettuce and onion and tzatziki sauce which is wrapped in pita bread.” Food can be purchased a la carte or as a

full meal, pastries by the piece or as a box to take home. Other features include imports and jewelry from Greece for sale, along with handicraft items like sweaters and hats made by women in the church. Church tours will also be offered. Keeping up with the atmosphere that’s like “going to Greece in Manchester, NH,” Kostas Taslis Orchestra will perform on Saturday from 5:30 to 10 p.m. and the Boston Lykeion Ellinidon Greek Dance Troupe will perform at 5 and 7 p.m. DJ Meleti will be at the festival all three days. “[It’s] a guaranteed good time and good food,” Copadis said. “They can go under the big tent on the Hanover GEORGE COPADIS Street side and go into the community center with a pastry booth set up in front of the stage and they can buy pastries there and then dance off the calories.” Decades ago when Kanteres saw the first Glendi take place in Manchester, he hoped it would serve the purpose of celebrating Greek culture, “to show people what Greek people can do.” “I want people to know how great the Greek people [and food] were,” he said.

Now it’s an event that’s grown to about 30,000 people that attend over the threeday weekend.

Returning to downtown Laconia on Saturday, Sept. 19, the New Hampshire Coffee Festival is for lovers of all things coffee, from the sample cups at the purveyor booths to coffee trivia and a sack race that utilizes large, burlap bean sacks. John Moriarty, Laconia Mainstreet Initiative president, came up with the idea of hosting a coffee festival while ordering coffee filters online. He saw that commercial coffee trade shows exist but couldn’t find any coffee festivals. “When we took this idea out to people around the state, no one had ever heard of a coffee festival,” he said. “But when 3,000 people showed up at the first festival in the first hour, we knew we were on to something.” Intentionally labeled a New Hampshire coffee festival, the event has a broad reach, featuring businesses from across the state. But since it’s held and hosted in Laconia, the event will highlight two local purveyors — Wayfarer Coffee Roasters and Woodshed Roasting Company — as well as the city’s coffee scene. “We do have a growing coffee scene as evidenced by two really high-quality coffee roasters,” Moriarty said. “I think this demonstrates that Laconia is a city on the move. … It just exudes a high-quality lifestyle and that is reinforced by these great coffee opportunities.”

Cari Ordway, coffee festival chairperson, said coffee-related products will be for sale (like decorated coffee scoops from Elegantly Eclectic) as well as coffee-inspired food from The Holy Grail Restaurant and Pub, Local Eatery and Rollin’ in the Dough. There will also be a coffee symposium, she said. Eddie Giunta from Cafe Monte Alto in Plymouth will lead a segment called “From Our Farm To Your Cup: Three Generations On Our Coffee Plantation in Peru,” and Ben Bullerwell of Wayfarer Coffee Roasters will discuss getting started as a home roaster. Emeran Langmaid, owner of A&E Coffee and Tea, will lead a latte art throwdown. “We definitely traversed the state and sought people out because we really do want this to be a high-quality event, so we hand-selected the first vendors,” Moriarty said. Admission for the festival is free and includes the entertainment, symposium and java games for kids. Throughout the festival the Jonathan Lorentz Jazz Trio will perform on the mainstage, providing festival-goers with the “quintessential coffee soundtrack,” Moriarty said.

Warner coffee house focuses on community

By Allie Ginwala

aginwala@hippopress.com

Reviving a community corner

A number of coffee shops have occupied space downtown over the years, including White Mountain Coffee and Clovis Moon, but none for the past two years or so, Parker said. Schoodacs manager Mark Allen, who’s lived in Warner for 13 years, said the property that now houses Schoodacs used to be a quiet and overgrown corner. “I remember speaking to some locals and them saying ‘that corner’s always been dead,’” Parker added. “The goal was definitely to revitalize this property.” One of the ways he did that was by building a 400-square-foot porch onto the building, a drastic change that local residents quickly picked up on. “I’ve had people come up to me and say, ‘Did you move the building closer to the street?’ Because it made such a dramatic visual difference,” Parker said. Parker hopes both the porch and the now more open grassy space between the porch and the road will become gathering places.

The local vibe

The Parkers’ goal for the coffee house is to make it as local as possible, including its uniquely Warner name. “It is very much part of the local vocabulary,” Parker said. “If you live in Warner you know the name Schoodac.” He listed the places where “Schoodac” appears, like the name of a road just south of town and the brook that runs beside it. According to the historical society, the word is onomatopoeia for the sound the sawmill made as the wood was processed through the lumber mill. A large saw blade, gifted by a resident who found it in his backyard, is on a wall in the center of the room.

crafted cocktails A view of the porch and front lawn at Schoodacs in Warner. Allie Ginwala photo.

Fresh Ingredients House made mixers Great Liquors Attention to all the details

Behind the counter

Schoodacs developed its own blends with a coffee roaster based in North Carolina. Their dark roast is Italian, breaking from the norm of typically French dark roasts. “The Italian roast has an almost smoky … [flavor],” Parker said. “And then our medium uses a little bit of a Sumatran bean in it with some of the brighter Central American beans mixed in with it as well.” Schoodacs has a selection of 30 looseleaf teas from green and oolong to herbal and pu’er. Parker said customers who drink the tea in-house will be served a clear infuser so they can watch it brew at the table. The display case at the counter will be filled with pastries like chocolate and almond croissants, scones, muffins and more, from Tarte Cafe and Bakery in Andover. “We talked to several different bakers in the area and ... the thing that we really liked about her is she’s a small business and that she bakes to order, basically,” Parker said of owner and pastry chef Corinne Cline. “And she is a classically trained French baker.” In the mornings, Schoodacs has a hot steel-cut oatmeal bar. “This is not a pre-packaged oatmeal,” Parker said. “We serve it from our soup basins and we’ll have a toppings bar for that oatmeal.” Other breakfast items include fresh-cut fruit and yogurt and granola parfaits. For lunch, they’ll do one or two daily soups. They also have containers of old-fashioned dime candy next to the counter. “We’re going to introduce things as the locals let us know what they like and what they want,” he said.

After spending a dozen summers in New Hampshire visiting family, Darryl and Kristin Parker decided to make it their home — and the home of Schoodacs Coffee House, which opened Sept. 11. They bought the building on East Main Street in Warner last year, with the intention of using it as a place to work on their business, Parker Web, but they soon realized the potential of the space that’s near The Local, The Foothills and MainStreet BookEnds downtown. “There were pieces that were here, but it seemed like there was a gap, and we felt like the coffee shop helped really fill that gap,” Darryl Parker said.

She could either go with something familiar or take a risk and follow her passion in a new venture — she chose the latter. Marsh had been juicing on her own for a decade before opening Live Juice (5 S. Main St., Concord, 226-3024, livejuicenh.com) in 2013 with the mission of helping others get more fruits and veggies into their bodies in a convenient, affordable and tasty way. The menu features juices and smoothies filled with everything from sweet potato and cinnamon to spinach and cashew butter, as well as salads, soups and wraps. Many of the smoothie recipes are ones she created in her home kitchen while blending for her son.

Herbed London broil In this crazy heat wave, I’ve refused to make my kitchen any hotter by cooking. We’ve been sticking with salads and are guilty of ordering takeout more times than I’d care to admit in the past week or two. But I quickly realized that takeout puts a dent in your pocketbook, and a girl cannot live on salads alone (at least not this girl). So I force my husband outside and in front of the grill after the sun goes down. I get a respite from the heat of the stove, and we both get one from salad. The recipe I found on Taste of Home originally appeared in Country Woman more than 12 years ago. But much like the pantry staples it calls for, this recipe hasn’t gone out of style. A simple steak seasoned and grilled to perfection will always be welcome at my dinner table. But the great thing about this recipe is that it will work in winter too. When it inevitably gets too cold to fire up the grill, a quick pan sear or some time under the broiler will work just as well. Besides the steak, I had everything I needed for this recipe on hand. The simple seasoning, though mild, gives the steak a subtle and savory flavor. The blend of celery seed, salt, dried thyme and oregano was

flavorful enough to come through after the char from the grill, and the addition of rosemary boosted the flavor profile of the meat as well. In my rush to get dinner on the table, I eyeballed the measurements instead of taking 30 seconds to grab my measuring spoons and was a bit heavy-handed with the rosemary. It masked some of the subtler nuances of flavor slightly, but the garlic and onion from the marinade helped balance out the dish. When I saw this recipe called for lemon juice, at first I was a bit hesitant. I don’t usually like mixing citrus with my beef, and thought about skipping the ingredient completely. However, I didn’t want to substitute with more oil. The acid from the lemon juice was critical, however, as it broke down the meat and enabled the marinade’s spices and oil to sink in and flavor the steak. Because steak is so dense, you can let it marinate longer. I was too hungry to wait very long, but this would be delicious after a night left to marinate in the refrigerator. — Lauren Mifsud

During the fall, apple wine is one of my favorites and one of the best ways I know to enjoy past years’ crops. With the abundance of apples here in New Hampshire, it is no surprise that many winemakers take advantage of this fruit. Its qualities of sweetness mixed with just the right amount of tartness make it a great choice for wine. The apples left behind in the orchards aren’t just for cider anymore. In addition to offering an apple cranberry wine, Sweet Baby Vineyard in East Kingston offers an apple wine made with fruit from Applecrest Farms in Hampton Falls. This semi-sweet version is crisp and clean, described as “an easy drinking wine” and one of my favorites. Enjoy it well-chilled. Hermit Woods Winery in Meredith offers several apple wines, including their famous signature Heirloom Crabapple wine, which began several vintages ago using crabapples from the winery’s former location in Sanbornton. Winemaker and co-owner Ken Hardcastle has improved on this wine year after year. It is tangy and only slightly sweet, making it a great accompaniment for spicy foods or turkey. For a new take on this wine, try their Sparkling Heirloom Crabapple wine, which is full-bodied and medium dry with some slight effervescence. This wine also pairs well with spicy dishes, light meals and turkey. Enjoy it well chilled. Additionally, try their Sparkling Harvest Apple Wine, which takes their lovely harvest apple wine and kicks it up a notch. This wine “will bring out the light fruitiness of the apple and dance in your mouth through its long and delightful finish,” according to the description. Made from French and English heirloom apples, quince and crabapples, this is a great celebration of apple season. Try it with lobster for a delectable pairing. Lin at Copper Beech Winery in Hooksett uses a blend of New Hampshire apples for her Autumn Harvest wine, blended with red and white cranberries for subtle tartness. It is great on its own but can also be mulled when the weather gets cooler. Copper Beech also offers a Crisp Apple wine, made completely from a blend of New Hampshire apples. This wine celebrates the fruit’s sweetness yet tart qualities. For something off-dry and puckery, try the Country Crabapple wine made from New Hampshire crabapples.

This wine is a limited edition, so get it while it lasts. LaBelle Winery in Amherst offers three apple wines: Granite State Apple, Heirloom Apple and Dry Apple, in addition to their LaBelle Apple Cranberry. The Granite State Apple is made with local, slow-fermented apples and a hint of maple syrup. The Heirloom Apple is more like a dry riesling, made with Alyson’s heirloom apples. The result is a complex wine with floral notes. The third wine, Dry Apple, is a must try for pinot grigio fans. This wine is made using small batches of fermented apples after they have been pressed at a low temperature. For a different twist on apples and maple syrup, try MappleZ from Zorvino Vineyards in Sandown. Here’s my take on this wine: First the apple welcomes you in, and the maple shuts the door on the way out. This wine is fun and surprising. Kurt’s Apple Pie from Moonlight Meadery in Londonderry is yet another take on apples. This honey wine is one of Moonlight Meadery’s top sellers, made with apple cider, Madagascar bourbon vanilla and Vietnamese cinnamon spice. This mead can be enjoyed on its own or poured over vanilla ice cream as a yummy fall treat. If wine isn’t your favorite but you like cider, Farnum Hill Ciders in Lebanon makes several different varieties that range from still and sparkling to semi-dry and extra dry. You can find their ciders in New Hampshire Liquor and Wine Outlet locations around the state.

Before this full-length album, this Chicago duo — named after a crazy Korean pseudo-manager lady who preferred to get them gigs at Blockbuster Video and Staples stores — was a Ray Charles reimagining of White Stripes, with past Otis Rush pianist Johnny Iguana hammering his keys and bigpaycheck session guy Michael Caskey going nuts on a relatively sparse drum kit. The first six tunes on this record cover that setup, and then out comes their newly acquired secret weapon, mononymed singer Yana, a sexy-torchy chick with the fashion sense of True Blood’s LaFayatte, who’s upped their earning potential tenfold (she was a tenant in a building Claudette owned). Yana’s no Ella, but they get the most out of her with the help of just the right amount of reverb, not to mention a nice megaphone-patch on “She’s So Imaginary.” If you like your set-it-and-forgetit feel-good stuff to be loud but accessible, it doesn’t get much better.

We Hunt Buffalo, Living Ghosts (Fuzzorama Records)

ly Sennott at ksennott@

If Creed was heavily into Black Sabbath and didn’t suck, it’d sound like this album’s opening tune, “Ragnarok,” pretty much. But this isn’t basic assembly line stoner metal; just when I had settled into gear to write a few platitudes about the good and bad points of The Sword and bands like that, these Vancouver-based Neanderthals started jamming it up in the tradition of early Mastodon-gone-borderline-screamo (“Prairie Oyster”) and, well, who could really hate that? WHB do have a certain epic seriousness about them, despite the bit-too-muddy guitars — I get the impression that these guys got to at least page 100 of Moby Dick, if you know what I mean, and the production posted up by Jesse Gander (Japandroids, Anciients) isn’t annoyingly indie, particularly on “Hold On,” a wide-load stomper reminiscent of Band of Skulls but with an even better drum sound. Once past its melancholic opening, “Fear” rates up there with Crowbar for pure sludge bliss. A — Eric W. Saeger

• So there’s a new Dead Weather album coming out, titled Dodge & Burn, which, of course, pegged the gauges on Snarko-meters everywhere, because of Jack White looking like Johnny Depp’s chubby cousin, or whatever it is that makes people hate on Jack White so much. Originally, for me, I hated on him because I didn’t think of a two-person coed Led Zeppelin band first, but I’ve since devolved to making “hamburger eating contest” jokes in line with the rest of my colleagues in the Grumpy Music Critic Society because the heck with Jack White, let some other half-talent Jimmy Page wannabe have a turn. Anyway, where were we, oh yes, new Dead Weather. Yes, Alison Mosshart is still the singer, and yes, it still sounds like acid rock, at least going by the tire-kicker teaser for the single “I Feel Love (Every Million Miles),” which evokes Geddy Lee jamming with Jimi Hendrix. Drool, right? Yeah, maybe Jack’s stock is rising, if he hasn’t done anything to stir the hornet’s nest of haters who always pelt his YouTubes with insults. Let’s go look. Oops, he did it again, the single can be streamed in its entirety, but only if you sign up for Tidal. Look at all these commenters, raining hamburger jokes and “nuts to you Jack” all over the place, oh the humanity. And why does every song out of Jack White’s head sound the same these days? Am I just being mean, by asking that? I’m confused! Is it cool to hate on Jack White or is it passé? • Grumble grumble, hamburgers, wait a second, a new album from New Order, called Music Complete? Meh, I’m already sold, just send the bill! Let’s go check this out, come on, this is worth waiting for the “Skip Advertisement” for a few measly seconds. By the way, the band still consists of everyone left over from Joy Division except for Peter Hook. OK, the single is called “Restless,” a sympho-1980s-driven tune with (of course) a loud bass, much like the filler songs from Technique back in the days. That’s cool, but it just sort of doesn’t go anywhere. I suppose it’s difficult to remain awesome for 40 years; let’s just leave it at that. • When she isn’t doing gay pride shows and talking about how awesome Amy Schumer is, Canadian techno lady Peaches makes albums at a rapid rate, if by “rapid” you mean one every six years, such as her new one, Rub. Her gender-bending trip is always pretty badass, but the video for the new single “Light in Places” is like obscene visual art for androids — go see for yourself, I can’t say more. The song is kind of oldschool-sounding, a little like Goldfrapp meets Aphex Twin, and some gross spoken-word stuff that would make your grandmother faint, which is, of course, the point of all this. • Lots of other stuff coming out next week, as the holidays are only a week away in retail terms: Los Lobos with Gates of Gold; JR JR’s (formerly Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr., as if there wasn’t ever going to be a cease and desist order) self-titled LP; Chvrches, The Dears and Silversun Pickups.

New Hampshire’s poetry scene has deep roots, but until now, there hadn’t really been a venue where poets all over the state could come together. This was Jennifer Militello’s qualm and Charles Simic. Courtesy the reason why, shortphoto. ly after becoming Poetry Society of New Hampshire vice president, she shared her idea of having a poetry festival with the society. “New Hampshire has a great poetry community and a great poetry history. I personally came to New Hampshire to write poems,” said Militello, who currently also heads the creative writing program at River Valley Community College and studied at UNH under former U.S. Poet Laureate and Pulitzer Prize winner Charles Simic. “I feel like New Hampshire is a gift for poets.” Society board members agreed with Militello — there was a need, a real need, and so planning for the first-ever New Hampshire Poetry Festival, which happens this Saturday, Sept. 19, at the New Hampshire Institute of Art, came together fast. “I originally thought we might start it in 2016, but everybody on the board really wanted to do it this year,” Militello said. In fact, Militello is a little surprised at how well it all came together, considering the organization only began planning in the spring. Some big names agreed to read or host workshops, and so far, registrants from as far as California have signed up. Major media outlets like the Boston Globe, Washington Times and Miami Herald have picked up the story. “It came together in a way I hoped for, but was unsure about; but response has been fabulous. People really want to celebrate poetry, and giving them the form to do that, people really responded,” she said.

It consists of workshops (led by award-winning poets like Ravi Shankar, Tim Liardet, Jeff Friedman and current New Hampshire

Poet Laureate Alice B. Fogel), panel discussions (about mindful writing, translation, Robert Frost, Ekphrastics, making time for writing, etc.) and readings all day long. Centrally located at the intersection of a few major highways, Manchester seemed like the most obvious city for a festival like this. And within the city, the New Hampshire Institute of Art seemed to be the best venue. All the school’s buildings are within walking distance, and there’s a parking garage, hotel and variety of downtown restaurants nearby. Plus, it’s a school for creative writers. Militello went to NHIA Creative Writing Chair Monica Bilson. “I said, I’ll do one better. I’ll provide not just the space, but also catering and volunteers. I’ll get students involved in the event from our creative writing department,” Bilson said via phone. “We have great facilities. We’ve already co-hosted an event with the New Hampshire Writers’ Project — the Three Minute Fiction Slam. We hosted the finals the past two years. And we hosted the Poetry Out Loud semi-finals last year as well.” Bilson said it benefits everybody to have these kinds of events at the institute. It gives those organizations a facility and also a host who understands their needs. “And it gives us visibility, and it gives our students opportunities to meet professionals in action, not just as writers but as people who are planning these kinds of events,” Bilson said. Bilson would like to see the school continue to build not just a city arts community, but also a literary community — to see more people from the public attend its high-profile visiting writers series and perhaps see a local developer finally build an indie bookstore in the city’s downtown. Militello hopes this will continue the “congealing” happening in New Hampshire. “I think that because it’s such a rural state and because the pockets of the community are spread out, there’s been a discussion for a long time about centralizing the poetry community. And maybe now people are starting to take action and respond to that desire in an active way,” Militello said.

Did You Ever Have a Family, by Bill Clegg (Scout Press, 293 pages) It’s impossible to read Did You Ever Have a Family without thinking of Madonna Badger, the New York advertising executive who, early on Christmas morning in 2011, lost her parents and three young daughters in a catastrophic house fire. Like Ms. Badger, the mother in Bill Clegg’s debut novel stood outside and watched a fire consume her Connecticut house with everyone she loved inside. Unlike Ms. Badger, who spent the next year under psychiatric care as she fought to recover, the fictional June Reid takes a road trip, catatonically crossing the country until taking up residence at a West Coast motel in Room 6. The deaths of her family — the daughter and the fiancé who were to be married that day; June’s ex-husband, and her boyfriend — are at the center of a complex wheel of stories the novel spins. The narrator changes with each chapter, every character revealing a portion of a poignant whole: the mothers of the dead, the son of the woman who made the wedding cake, the local florist, the clerk at the hotel where June settles, and so forth. Their collected stories make for a deeply moving portrait of grief, forgiveness and recovery, as well as the uneasy air that floats between disparate social classes. When the fire exploded on the day her daughter was to be married, June was out on the lawn of her graceful stone home in Litchfield, Connecticut. Among those still

sleeping in the house was her boyfriend, a man half her age, a former highschool swimming star who had fallen and been recently released from prison. Their relationship had raised eyebrows. (“No one had ever made a fuss or thought about her, but when she shacked up with Luke Morey the whole town paid attention.”) No one knew Luke’s father, and Luke’s relationship with his own mother had withered, but June was determined to know her and repeatedly showed up at Lydia’s house until she finally let her in, to both her house and her life. After the fire, Lydia, too, was cruelly bereft, with no husband or other children to console her. But Lydia remains in their town (where, at a restaurant, she endures hearing women speculating that her son was the cause of the fire) while two weeks after the fire, June takes off in her Subaru wagon. She does not have to pack; the car, along with a linen jacket and the jeans and top she is wearing, is all she owns now. Those things, and her memories. Her trip to places her daughter had been are part of the healing, as well as discoveries being made by others back at home. Astonishingly, there are flashes of humor in such a bleak tale, courtesy of the peripheral characters whose detached observations allow a break from the mothers’ anguish. “If you want to lose sleep at night and eliminate all your free time and freedom, by all means open a small business, especially one that serves food,” says Rick, the son of the caterer who never got paid for the $22,000 worth of food she had

prepared for a wedding that didn’t take place. (The cake, heartbreakingly, went to the firefighters.) It’s Rick who describes June as “pretty in the way that some of the older women on my wife’s soap operas are pretty. She takes care of herself.” Before the fire, he said, she had “that Glinda the Good Witch vibe to her, a sort of nothing-bad-has-everhappened-to-me-and-nothing-bad-willhappen-to-you-if-you’re-around-me feel.” This is how Clegg crafts a portrait of June, with a slow-build of observations from the people who knew her, before and after the fire. At the motel, where the clerks leave cookies and bread for the woman they know as “Jane,” an employee named Rebecca offers: “I’ve been worried since the day she arrived. Something about the way she dragged herself when she walked, her exhaustion, and the limit to how much she could engage, the way her eyes were open physically but in every other way were shut.” Clegg, owner of a glitterati literary agency in New York, has not mentioned the Badger family in interviews he has given about the provenance of the novel. The author of two memoirs about addiction, his own, he has said he imagined the plot because his brother, a carpenter, had told him about houses exploding because of gas leaks. Badger has since gotten married and written about her lurching steps to recovery in Vogue magazine. Did You Ever Have a Family is not her experience, but parts of it could be, and part of the book’s power is fear that, but for the grace of God and a stable gas line, it could be our own. Such a story can never really have a happy ending, but it can hold a measure of grace. As Clegg writes, “Rough as life can be, I know in my bones we are supposed to stick around and play our part. … I don’t think we get to know why.” A — Jennifer Graham

CHILDREN’S ROOM A weekly recommendation from the Concord Public Library

Echo By Pam Muñoz Ryan, 2015 (Fiction, ages 10-14)

t all began with a boy, a book and a harmonica — a harmonica that linked the boy to three children decades later, one in Germany, one in Pennsylvania and one in California. The mystical harmonica plays a key role in each of their challenging lives, entwining their destinies together. Part fantasy, part historical fiction, this captivating story leads to a very satisfying ending.

Meet & Greet with Author, Josh Levs

Thursday, Sept. 17th • 10:30am After 20 years of reporting for NPR and CNN, Levs -- a father of three -- focuses his book on dispelling myths about today’s dads and moms, and explaining the necessity of new policies such as paid family leave. All In shows that men have just as much to gain from these changes. Levs follows the money of paid family leave programs, detailing how and why they work well across the board, including for businesses and the economy. Levs will share his own story of taking on a policy at Time Warner that prevented him from being able to care for his newborn. As a result of his legal action and the publicity surrounding them, the company revolutionized its policy, making it much better for dads and moms.

POP CULTURE FILM REVIEWS BY AMY DIAZ

The Visit (PG-13)

able blend of affectation, tic and early teen goofiness. Since often your TV and movie teens are played by actors in their twenties — sometimes deep into their twenties — it’s refreshing to see teens who are, like many real-life teens, still very kid-like. Oxenbould and DeJonge’s kidness, along with a really natural brother-sister relationship (one that is two parts annoyance, one part “in it together”), helps to sell these characters, which help to sell this story, which helps to sell all the weirdness that comes with it. I’m giving this movie the benefit of the doubt that all (or at least most of) this self-consciousness is intentional, that it is purposefully Doing a Thing. And I’ll admit, I was not, at all points in the movie, on board with the Thing. But the Thing It’s Doing is not what’s expected and not something you see every day and at some point I found myself just going with it. (An example of a detail where a similar sense of acceptance plays out: Tyler announces he’s going to replace all swear words with female pop stars’ names, so “Shakira” instead of another “sh” word. This gimmick feels extremely forced, like Shyamalan just saw Steve Carell screaming “Kelly Clarkson” during the waxing scene of The 40-Year-Old Virgin and wanted to jump on that train. But at some point, it actually starts to work and I found myself genuinely laughing at the way it was weaved into little tense moments.) It’s not great, not The Sixth Sense or even Unbreakable, but it’s not horrible and for Shyamalan “not horrible” at this point in his career might just be a rousing success. BRated PG-13 for disturbing thematic material including terror, violence and some nudity and for brief language. Written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, The Visit is an hour and 36 minutes long and distributed by Universal Pictures.

Two teens spend a week with their increasingly strange grandparents in The Visit, an M. Night Shyamalan, er, thing.

Horror movie? Comedy? Self-parody? I have no idea. The trailers I saw prior to seeing the movie seemed to stress the horror, or at least thriller, aspect but both IMDB and Wikipedia include “comedy” in their genre labeling of this movie. But it’s not, to my mind, a comedy-horror in the way that, say, the jokey Scream movies would fit that description and, while The Visit feels quite meta, it isn’t the broadly winking The Cabin in the Woods either. It’s this whole other ... weird ... I don’t know, thing that feels like both the most Shyamalany thing Shyamalan could make and an answer to the critics of his Shyamalan tendencies. And it’s often annoying in the way it showily points out what it’s doing. And/but I also laughed out loud several times, including during a truly hilarious scene in the movie’s final act. My first thought while watching this movie was “gaaaah, Shyamalan discovered ‘found footage.’” A variation on this increasingly tired horror movie structure — thanks, Paranormal Activity, or really, I guess, thanks, Blair Witch Project — is employed by the 15-ish Becca (Olivia DeJonge) and her 13-year-old brother Tyler (Ed Oxenbould), who are going to meet their grandparents for the first time. Their mom (Kathryn Hahn) left home while still a teenager after a fight with her parents about the man who would become her husband (and then the father of her children and then her ex-husband and the distant father of her children), an older man whom she met when he substitute taught at her high school. She hasn’t seen her parents in more than a decade and Becca and Tyler have never met them. But they contacted their daughter and asked to meet the kids. Becca and Tyler urged their mom to let them go in hopes that she (their mom)

could have a relaxing vacation with her new boyfriend. Becca, a budding documentarian, decides to film the whole trip and make a movie about her grandparents and her mother. Tyler doesn’t care about documentaries but he does enjoy making up and recording his hilariously middle school-ish freestyle raps, which Becca begrudgingly lets him do in exchange for being in and helping with her film. These city kids take the train to the small town where their grandparents live and meet Nana (Deanna Dunagan) and Pop Pop (Peter McRobbie). At first, grandparents and grandchildren are fairly overjoyed to be in each other’s company. But, during the first night, the kids start to notice oddness coming from Nana. Something about evening brings on increasingly bizarre behavior — scampering around like a creepy The Ring ghost, for example. Meanwhile, the longer they visit, the more something seems odd about Pop Pop as well. So, yes, there’s a twist, but it’s one you see coming from a long way off and one that almost seems like the movie’s way of saying “here’s that Shyamalan twist you’re expecting but it’s not really that big of a deal because we’re already doing this other thing.” There is also an Important Plot

*Ant-Man (PG-13) Paul Rudd, Michael Douglas. As good as your Iron Man and your Avengers movies can be, what is truly marvelous about Marvel is what it does here (and what it did in last year’s Guardians of the Galaxy), which is to take a very minor, mostly unknown character from its universe and create a movie that is crackling with energy, humor and adventure. Rudd, in the titular shrinking superhero role, is an excellent blend of earnest everyguy and

Point about the mother’s estrangement from the parents that actually turns out to be little more than an emotional McGuffin. It’s set up as a Big Deal — Becca even calls her attempt to bring resolution to their problem the “elixir” she wants to bring back to her mother to cure her of destructive relationship behavior. But it fizzles to nothing, like a dud firework, in a way that actually is kind of clever for how it subverts your expectations. (There’s even a moment that feels like Shyamalan referencing and making fun of his Signs “swing away” plot thread.) The movie and its “what am I watching” weirdness work more often than not — a conclusion I only eventually came to and am still not certain of — in large part because of Becca and Tyler. They are both stilted and natural and ultimately kind of great. The movie frequently uses Becca as a way to explain visual and narrative tricks, but it does so so obviously and she is so knowit-all about it that I actually came to find it funny. And, despite how “Mark Wahlberg talking to a plastic plant” it initially felt, this twitchy part of her character actually feels kind of natural for an older sister who needs The Perfect Guy (PG-13) A too-good-to-be-true boyfriend to exert control and display her intellectual superiority. Oxenbould is even better at turns out, to the surprise of no one, making his character a surprisingly believ- to be a crazy stalker in The Perfect vaguely Robert-DowneyJr.-reminiscent heroics.

Foreign travel (No Escape), grandparents (The Visit), high school acquaintances (The Gift, at least based on the trailers) and now cute dudes you meet in coffee shops — movies will not rest until you are terrified of everything. Leah (Sanaa Lathan) is a professionally successful, attractive woman who, having rounded 35 and now heading toward 40, is anxious to get going with the getting married and having children portion of her life. But her current boyfriend, Dave (Morris Chestnut), keeps telling her he isn’t ready. After despairing that he’ll ever be ready, she breaks up with him. A few months later, she’s waiting for a friend in a restaurant when a drunken idiot drunkenly hits on her. As so often happens in movies and on TV shows, a handsome stranger — who turns out to be named Carter (Michael Ealy) — rescues her by coming over and pretending to be her possessive boyfriend. Carter, Leah quickly realizes, happens to be the same guy she had a chance meeting with months earlier when they both ordered the same coffee and he let her take his coffee, ready first, because she was in a hurry. After this second meet cute, Leah offers to buy Carter a drink, which turns into dinner, which turns into a great date and top-notch goodbye kiss, followed by another great date and some PG-13 behavior that has Leah raving to her lady friends, Alicia (Rutina Wesley, a.k.a. True Blood’s Tara) and Karen (Kathryn Morris, a.k.a. Cold Case’s Lily). By the time Carter is charming Leah’s parents, we’re ready for the reveal (or what would be a reveal if there were no such things as trailers) that he’s a total psycho. And so, just then, just as Carter and Leah are driving home from a visit with her folks, all rosy and in love, the movie hard left turns into Carter delivering a vicious beat-down to a guy for basically no reason. Leah is horrified and tells Carter to take his crazy self elsewhere. His slide from “normal person trying to explain an out-of-character episode” to “zany-eyed

loon” takes maybe five minutes and then Leah is faced with having to fight off an increasingly aggressive stalker. She finds a sympathetic ear but also a lot of legal slowpokerey when she takes her problems to police detective Hansen (Holt McCallany). Surprisingly, it is this moment of extreme turmoil that Dave picks to come back into Leah’s life, hinting that he’s ready to get serious. Some thoughts: • Leah is unlucky in love — even the “good” boyfriend comes across as kind of a selfish jerk — but she is super lucky at real estate. Her house is beautiful — some mid-century modern touches with great light, top-notch landscaping and privacy despite all the windows and being fairly close to neighbors. And the inside — well, forget the kissing and PG-13 sex, it was the sleek kitchen and the spacious closets (so many closets!) that had me feeling like I needed a fainting couch. Forget romance, Leah, I wanted to say, stick to interior design, where you are crushing it. • I also wanted to talk to Leah during a scene where Dave confronts Carter in a restaurant. Neither man seems to have a great handle on appropriate restaurant behavior. While they were machoing at each other, I wished I could slip into the seat next to Leah for a quick conversation: “They’re both occupied,” I’d have told her. “Now’s your chance; run! Catch a cab, go home for the cat and an overnight bag, then get in your luxury sedan and never look back.” • Speaking of Leah’s cat, it’s never good to be the pet of a person who’s being stalked in a movie. This particular cat seems to be only lukewarm about Leah anyway, so it seems extra unfair that it gets dragged into her relationship turmoil. • Carter, in full crazy-eye stalker mode, could be doing an audition for Edward Cullen in a Twilight remake. That look of longing/extreme constipation while standing beside the bed of your asleep and unaware beloved/victim? He nails it. • Movies like this are really just a long slog to the moment when the stalkee (or

TELLURIDE BY THE SEA Suffragette, Spotlight, He Named Me Malala — just three of the movies likely to get Oscar buzz as we head into “serious film” season and three of the six movies you can catch at this weekend’s Telluride by the Sea film fest in Portsmouth. The festival runs Friday, Sept. 18, through Sunday, Sept. 20, at the Music Hall (28 Chestnut St. in Portsmouth, 436-2400, themusichall. org) with tickets for individual films available (at $15 each) as well as a weekend pass for $90. Movies on the bill include: • Suffragette Carey Mulligan and Meryl Streep star in this movie about women’s suffrage in England. (Friday, Sept. 18, at 7 p.m.) • Ixcanul Volcano First-time filmmaker Jayro Bustamante presents this story of a girl in a Guatemalan village contemplating a marriage that, in the trailer, she seems less than thrilled about. (Saturday, Sept. 19, at 2 p.m.) • 45 Years Charlotte Rampling and Tom Courtenay star as a couple about to celebrate their 45th wedding anniversary. (Saturday, Sept. 19, at 6:30 p.m.) • Spotlight Michael Keaton, Mark Ruffalo, Rachel McAdams, Stanley Tucci and Liev Schreiber star in this story of how the Boston Globe worked to uncover the priest sex abuse scandal. (Saturday, Sept. 19, at 9 p.m.) • Rams In this Icelandic film, feuding sheepherder brothers have to work together when disaster strikes. (Sunday, Sept. 20, at 1:30 p.m.) • He Named Me Malala This documentary tells the story of education advocate Malala Yousafzai. (Sunday, Sept. 20, at 6:15 p.m.) The festival also includes screenings of documentaries open to pass holders.

sometimes domestic violence victim, a la Jennifer Lopez in Enough) decides to turn and fight. I think of it as the “I’ll show you crazy” moment, to quote Beyonce in the movie Obsessed where she played a woman who had to face off against her husband’s stalker. Here, movies like this forget about realism or rational behavior by any character and just go for straight up audience wish-fulfillment about the terrorized woman kicking butt against her tormentor. The Perfect Guy doesn’t get “good” at this point but it does get more interesting. More of Leah turning the tables on Carter (or maybe just a tighter edit of the movie up to that point) would have made for a pluckier film. Lathan’s character is rather flat until the movie’s final third, when she gets all stony-eyed and determined. Of course, no matter how you slice it,

The Perfect Guy feels an awful lot like a lot of movies — not just the aforementioned Obsessed, which starred Idris Elba, but also Elba’s No Good Deed. Not just Lopez’s Enough but also a little bit her The Boy Next Door. And, yes, also like Twilight. (“See? “ I can imagine some mom saying to her young teen daughter, using The Perfect Guy as her visual aid during a “don’t have a relationship like Twilight” discussion, “See how constantly following and leering at your girlfriend gets you a restraining order in real life?”) The Perfect Guy brings nothing new to the party, either in terms of story and characters or its take on the issue overall. CRated PG-13 for violence, menace, sexuality and brief strong language. Directed by David M. Rosenthal and written by Tyger Williams, The Perfect Guy is an hour and 40 minutes long and distributed by Screen Gems.

NITE No filler Local music news & events

By Michael Witthaus

mwitthaus@hippopress.com

• Autumnal: Two singer-songwriters kick off a brewpub restaurant’s new season of music. Rebecca Loebe has the lovely breakup song “Lie” and an iTunes Top 10 cover of Nirvana’s “Come As You Are” to her credit; she was featured in Season 1 of The Voice. BettySoo’s songs are about the balancing act between hope, sorrow, love and loss. Loebe and BettySoo perform Thursday, Sept. 17, at 8 p.m. at Flying Goose, 40 Andover Road, New London. Call 526-6899 for reservations. • Returning: After a quiet summer due to building code issues, live music is back at the Press Room. Austin, Texas, duo The Ghost Wolves are raucous, gritty and gripping — what the White Stripes might sound like if gender roles were switched. See them Friday, Sept. 18, at 9 p.m. at the Press Room, 77 Daniel St., Portsmouth. Tickets are $5 (19+) at pressroomnh.com. The band appears Saturday, Sept. 19, at 9 p.m. at Tin Roof Tavern (333 Valley St., Manchester, 518-8464). • Homecoming: Boston Music Awards 2014 Artist of the Year Gracie Curran & The High Falutin’ Band moved down south last year and now call Memphis home. They’re midway through an East Coast tour that includes a stop at a favorite local haunt. The band is doing well in its new locale — an Atlanta critic recently described Curran as “completely natural on stage.” Gracie Curran & The High Falutin’ Band perform on Saturday, Sept. 19, at 8 p.m. at Strange Brew Tavern, 88 Market St., Manchester. • Munificence: Bring a perishable food item as Red Sky Mary, Charlie Farren and Hanging Scarlet perform to benefit New Hampshire Food Bank. Additionally, Families In Transition will be accepting winter coats at the event, which supports efforts to educate the public and create solutions to the problem of hunger in the state.

Tremonti hits Hampton By Michael Witthaus

mwitthaus@hippopress.com

The upcoming Casino Ballroom show co-headlined by Tremonti and Trivium is part of the HardDrive Live Tour. It’s a fitting moniker for the recent solo work of Creed co-founder and current Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti. His band released a new album in June, and the sessions produced enough material for a second LP — 20 tracks in all. Tremonti explained in a recent phone interview that the burst of output came from culling through almost 15 years of material stored on his computer. “I like to really dig in with my solo stuff, and when I know I have a timeframe to get into the studio, I come in prepared with as much stuff as possible,” he said. “I don’t want to be some disgruntled 80-year-old man who’s pissed that my life work’s gone to waste. So I go all out.” Cauterize is packed with the melodic metal-edged rock that’s grown Tremonti’s fan base since the solo project launched in 2010. “Radical Change,” “Another Heart” and “Arm Yourself” are among his current live show favorites. “All the heavy fast stuff is always the most fun to play,” he said. The follow-up, due later this fall, is called Dust, and Tremonti believe it’s just as solid. “Whittling down to 20 tracks is a lot of work,” he said. “There are no filler songs; it’s only the best of the best.” The workaholic will return to the studio with Alter Bridge after tours of the U.S. and Europe. A Creed retrospective is in the offing as well, though Tremonti worries that a busy schedule may limit his contribution to the effort. He learned about the project during his first conversation in years with Creed singer Scott Stapp. It came after a chance encounter last spring at Orlando’s Hard Rock Hotel; the two have texted since. “When I ran into him he had just gotten cleaned up and it was good to see that he was doing better; it’s good that we ran into each other in good spirits,” TremonTremonti and Trivium: The HardDrive Live Tour When: Saturday, Sept. 19, 8 p.m. Where: Casino Ballroom, 169 Ocean Blvd, Hampton Beach Tickets: $19 General Admission at casinoballroom.com

ti said. “The new record label wants to put out some sort of box set and I wasn’t aware of it … so I don’t know what it’s going to contain. I told him I’d wish they’d wait a year or two so we could put something special in, [but] there’s just too much traffic going on right now [for] any new Creed stuff.” Bassist Wolfgang Van Halen is currently on the road with his dad’s band, so Tanner Keegan is subbing on the Stateside leg of the tour and will be onstage for the Sept. 19 show at Casino Ballroom in Hampton Beach. Tremonti became aware of Keegan in his hometown of Orlando. “Tanner was in a band called Endorphin … really kick-ass progressive metal, kind of like a System of a Down,” he said. “We always used to go out and see them, so when Wolfgang couldn’t do it I called both him and Brett Hestla — Brett runs a studio in Orlando so he wouldn’t be able to leave home, and Tanner was our other choice. He came out and we loved him. He’s done a great job.” Despite living in the land of Disney for over 20 years, Tremonti maintains his intensity music-wise. “I grew up in Detroit and I don’t think you ever really lost your roots,” he said. “That’s really where I got most of my

musical inspiration from.” For proof, Tremonti described his family’s current living situation. “We’re fixing up our house, so we had to temporarily move out,” he said. “The room I’m in right now has a Little Mermaid sticker on the wall and it’s all baby blue. It was a girl’s room. I’ve brought in all my amps and guitars in there and that’s where I write. Picture that.” Four years ago, Guitarist magazine named Tremonti’s guitar solo on the MARK TREMONTI 2007 Alter Bridge song “Blackbird” the greatest of all time. He has mixed feelings about the honor. “When I was first made aware of being on that list I thought there’s no way in the world I want to win this, it just puts a big target on me,” he said. “It’s just a huge honor to be mentioned in the same sentence with some of the people who are on there.” Stretching out artistically is a central appeal of his solo act, Tremonti said. “I love to sing. I’ve been a melody writer since I was 11 years old, and one of the most frustrating things as a songwriter for me is people saying I’m just a lead guitar player, because most of the time I spend working is writing vocal melodies,” he said. “It’s good to be in a band where I actually get to sing.”

All the heavy fast stuff is always the most fun to play.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD BY CHUCK SHEPHERD

A paper drone

The Federal Aviation Administration recently granted (likely for the first time ever) an application to fly a paper airplane. Prominent drone advocate Peter Sachs had applied to conduct commercial aerial photography with his “aircraft” (a Tailor Toys model with a tiny propeller and maximum range of 180 feet), and the agency, concerned with air traffic safety, accommodated by treating the request (unironically?) under the rules for manned flights (that, among other restrictions, Sachs must not exceed 100 mph and must engage a licensed airplane pilot to fly it). “With this grant,” said the “victorious” Sachs, “the FAA has abandoned all logic and sensibility.”

Season of email muddles

(1) All Sherri Smith wanted was copies of background emails about her son (who has a disability) in the files of the Goodrich, Michigan, school system, but the superintendent informed her in June that the Freedom of Information request would cost her $77,780 (4,500 hours of searching taking two years to complete). (Michigan’s FOI law was somewhat liberalized on July 1, and Smith said she may refile.) (2) After a McKinney, Texas, police officer was filmed pointing his gun at unarmed black teenagers at a pool party in June, the online Gawker Media filed a Public Information Act request for the officer’s records and any emails about his conduct. The city estimated that request’s cost at $79,229 (hiring a programmer, for Questionable judgments • Because temperatures were in the high 2,231 hours’ searching plus “computer 90s the last weekend in August, tourists vis- time”).

Many painful days later, a tree, causing numerous injuries. On Aug. she succeeded. The American Association of Orthodontists expressed alarm in August at the video’s recent popularity. So much could go wrong infection, gum-tearing, detachment between tooth and gums that DeSota, the organization said, had simply been lucky.

New World order

Digital World: (1) The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction announced in July that it would be experimenting with online phys ed courses for high schoolers. Students would watch videos on certain activities, then engage in them, and later self-report their (as the agency calls it) “mastery.” (2) British police warned in August of a brand-new sex crime based on the iPhone app AirDrop. The app sends text or photos instantly to nearby AirDrop users (who choose to receive from “contacts” or from “everyone”). Thus, perverts can “flash” strangers by posting nude pictures of themselves to reach AirDrop users set carelessly (or purposely!) to “everyone.”

24, Alex Gomez, 36, of Lake Elsinore, California, tried to take one after draping an angry 4-foot-long rattlesnake around his neck. The predictable bite was damaging but not fatal. On Sept. 1 in Houston, a 19-year-old man taking selfies while clumsily fondling his handgun is no longer with us.

Recurring themes

• In June, News of the Weird mentioned a drug dealer in Marseille, France, who was distributing loyalty cards to his best customers (fill 10 squares, get a discount). In August, a small-time cannabis dealer in the central France town of Villeurbanne pushed the envelope further by taping 1-gram samples to hand-lettered leaflets (offering home delivery for 100euro orders, along with his first name and phone number). The man was of course arrested, with the local police superintendent musing about the man’s “very special” business model. • More “Slow TV”: Norwegian TV viewers have somehow given strong ratings to a series of seemingly interminable programs (a continuous camera on a salmon-fishing vessel, 12 hours of live log-burning with commentary, five hours of knitters spinning their way to a world record, 100 straight hours of chess-playing, a five-day stretch from a cruise ship), and in August were presented another such gift. The Norwegian caviar company Mills said it would live stream, on a YouTube channel, nearly 11 months of fish eggs aging 24/7 in barrels 7,392 hours of “programming.” Visit weirduniverse.net.
